WEEKEND WITH THE TIME CHANGE
YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
WHAT YOU CAN DO TO MAKE UP FOR
LOST TIME.
>>> WE BEGIN THIS HOUR ON
CAPITOL HILL WHERE THE SPECIAL
COUNSEL WHO INVESTIGATED
PRESIDENT BIDEN’S HANDLING OF
CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS WAS
GRILLED BY LAWMAKERS. TESTIMONY COMES JUST OVER A
MONTH AFTER RELEASE.
HE DESCRIBED PRESIDENT BIDEN A
A, QUOTE, ELDERLY MAN WITH A
POOR MEMORY.
>> MY ASSESSMENT IN THE REPORT
ABOUT THE RELEVANCE OF THE PRESIDENTS MEMORY WAS
EXPLAN. ION NOR DID NECESSARY, ACCURATE AND FAIR
EXPLAN. ION NOR DID
I DID NOT SANITIZE MY
EXPLANATION.
NOR DID I DISPARAGE THE
PRESIDENT UNFAIRLY.
>> PRESIDENT BIDEN STRONGLY
CRITICIZED HIS FINDING SAYING
HIS MEMORY IS FINE.
THE FIRST TRANSCRIPT OF HIS
INTERVIEW WITH THE SPECIAL
COUNSEL IS JUST A WEEK THIS
MORNING.
REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS, THEY
EACH HAVE THEIR OWN CRITICISM OF THE REPORT. Reporter: WELL, H
STUCK TO WHAT HE WROTE IN HIS
345-PAGE REPORT NOT REALLY
VEERING O
>> Reporter: HE BASICALLY STUCK
TO WHAT HE WROTE IN HIS 345
PAGE REPORT AND NOT VEERING OFF
SCRIPT.
WHAT HE REVEALED IN THE REPORT,
AND WHAT WAS LATER REVEALED IN
COURT IN THE TRANSCRIPT, JUST
AHEAD OF HIS TESTIMONY THIS
MORNING.
I’M STANDING A COUPLE OF FEET
FROM -- WHO IN HIS QUESTIONING
OF HUR SAID THAT ROBERT HUR
MANAGED TO ANGER EVERYONE IN THE ROOM . THAT MEANS HE’S
WATCH. DOING A GOOD JOB
WATCH. >> IN THIS CASE D YOU. REACH
DOING A GOOD JOB
>> IN THIS CASE DID YOU REACH A
CONCLUSION THAT THIS MAN WAS
OUTRIGHT INNOCENT?
>> THE CONCLUSIONS NOT
REFLECTED IN MY REPORT.
>> Reporter: THIS LENGTHY
INVESTIGATION RESULTED IN A COMPLETE EXONERATION GOING TO CO
WITH MY QUESTIONS.
>> I’M GOING TO CONTINUE WITH
MY QUESTION.
I WILL CONTINUE WITH MY
QUESTION.
>> SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE DID NOT
EXIST. >> YOU EXONERATED HIM POINT
>> THAT DOES NOT EXONERATE HIM .
REALLY STUCK
>> Reporter: HUR SPOKE TO WHAT
HE OUTLINED IN THE REPORT.
HE WAS CAREFUL WHEN IN THE
ROOM.
ALLISON READING.
MAKING SURE HE DIDN’T SAY
ANYTHING OUT OF TURN.
WHEN HE WAS PRESSED BY
REPUBLICANS ASKING WHY HE
DECIDED NOT TO CHARGE THE
PRESIDENT, AND McGRATH ASKING
WHY HE INCLUDED IN THE REFERENCE
TO PRESIDENT BIDEN’S MENTAL
ACUITY, HE SAID HE DID SO
BECAUSE OF ALL OF THE EVIDENCE
THAT TRANSPIRED.
INCLUDING AUDIO EARNING.
>> BEFORE YOU GO LET’S TALK
ABOUT THE TRANSCRIPT THAT YOU
MENTIONED.
IT’S VERY LONG.
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE KEY TAKEAWAYS ASTAKEWAYS.
>> Reporter: VIEWERS, CHAIRMAN
K RDAN HAS SAID THAT
>> Reporter: SOME TAKEAWAYS ARE
POINTED OUT BY DEMOCRATS AND
REPUBLICANS IN THE ROOM.
I WANTED TO TELL OUR VIEWERS
PLAINLY THAT CHAIRMAN JORDAN
HAS SAID THIS IS SOMETHING THEY
SUBPOENAED.
THEY ONLY GOT A COUPLE OF
MOMENTS BEFORE THE HEARING WENT
TO LIVE.
BUT THERE WERE CERTAINLY
REFERENCES IN THE TRANSCRIPT
WHERE THE PRESIDENT SEEMS TO
FORGET CERTAIN THINGS.
FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN HIS SON DIED.
WE ALSO LEARNED TO THIS
TRANSCRIPT THAT IT WAS THE
PRESIDENT THAT BROUGHT THAT UP
HIMSELF.
REMEMBER, BIDEN HAD PUSHED BACK
EARLIER AND SAID, WHY WOULD THE
SPECIAL COUNSEL BRING SOMETHING
SO PAINFUL UP.
BUT THERE WERE ALSO MOMENTS
WHEN THE PRESIDENT WAS LUCID.
HE WAS WITH THE INTERVIEW.
OF COURSE THIS INTERVIEW WAS
FIVE HOURS OVER TWO DAYS ON
OCTOBER 8th AND NINTH.
HUR ALSO SAID AT ONE POINT
DURING THE INTERVIEW THAT
BIDEN HAD A PHOTOGRAPHIC
UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT WAS
HAPPENING.
THAT IS AN INTERACTION THE
DEMOCRATS POINTED OUT IN THE
ROOM.
HE LATER TOLD ME THAT HE WISHED
THAT HUR HAD INCLUDED THIS IN
