'How dare he': Biden rebukes special council claim he forgot date of son's death

- The US president, Joe Biden, defended his memory in a short speech after a report from the justice department questioned his ability to remember key events and facts. The report also exonerated Biden over his handling of classified materials. Biden disputed some press reporting that he had 'wilfully retained documents' and said the special counsel report's descriptions concerning the date of his son's death were 'extraneous commentary' that 'had no place' there. Biden's remarks came after an earlier statement in which the US president welcomed the finding that he should not face criminal charges.

Love how the Guardian have cut out the rest where he goes on to say that Mexico borders Gaza
The Guardian is Left Wing so always missing the important points..
Yeah or how he confused nikki Haley for namcy pelosi twice ....oh wait..
LOL
the guardian probably doesn't know that was a mistake.
@@MrJawstherevenge87 anyone seriously questioning Trump's mental fitness, or comparing it to Brandon, should have themselves checked out.
Last year, he asked if Jackie Walorski was in the crowd. She died in 2022.
He said he talked to Francois Mitterrand recently who died in 1996.
His administration said he "mixed up the names".
If you've cared for anyone who suffered with dementia, you know it when you see it.
Trump has been saying he is friends with a dead black man and that he "hears things.." how is this any different..
Yeah, and this isn’t dementia. I know it, and dementia is your relative staring you in the face with no response and nonsense. It’s not misremembering a date or mixing up a name, Trump has done that plenty of times by the way 👀
Oh bull... everyone spouts a wrong name here and there. Parents do it all the time as well as people with more than one pet. Some even accidently call there spouse the namee of their long ago ex. It's just the way it is.
@@thl205I know dementia also, and he can’t remember events to save his life.
@@pamstuck2684He seems to forget more than most people, including forgetting that people died. “Our Lady of…”
You know Joe's done like dinner when even The Guardian won't run interference for him...
Well, they cut out the part where he confuses Mexico and Egypt
Oh pish posh. There's nothing to run "interference" on. The guy point blank said that he didn't do anything illegal period. The fact they he went on to blubber about nonsense was simply him starting and spreading gossip for his poisonous party since he could not find anything illegal like the party wanted him to. It's all bull.
@@DarthQueefious D U H
@@pamstuck2684 He actually said quite the opposite. The only reason Biden isn't being charged is because of the mental decline. The report literally says that no jury would charge him because they would see him as a forgetful old man with no ill will behind his intentions. Look at the report yourself if you don't believe me.
Don't worry, msnbc is defending double hard
They didn’t show the whole thing. It gets worse
My Mom acted the same way...defensive and would lash out at any mention of her memory when her dementia started to get bad. It's time to pull him. Someone needs to step in ....
"That is YOUR judgement, it is not the judgement of the press"... would make more sense if she wasn't a member of the press.
it makes sense if you take into consideration the press biden is talking about is the planted ones that throw softball scripted questions at him
According to Biden his mind is fine then not only should he be impeached he should also be charged.
Yeah that would require the GOP not being corrupt. Sorry, not gonna happen.
@@Anne_Onymoussorry we all know our country is beyond corrupt and we refuse to stand up and do something about it just keep moving along with our lives like nothings wrong.
If you are American you’re the only one who can make real change.
America isn’t the greatest country in the world you just have too look back at the last 100 years of American history and you’ll see it’s the greatest problem in the world
Dunno man, we won WW, defeated the USSR in the Cold war, and became the sole superpower. That makes us the greatest 😊 @harrysquatter747
Isn’t he unintentionally self sabotaging himself here? Him having a poor memory was used in his defense for retaining classified documents if I’m not mistaken, so him denying the fact actually goes against his defense.
Plausible, weren't it for the many times he said his son died in Iraq. He makes up stories.
The Special Counsel report literal said he was too old and senile too be responsible for the crime of retaining classified documents.
It's really a damning conclusion because there is no "intent" required in the statute. They're arguing that he's not guilting because he's not sentient, the same way say someone with schizophrenia might not be guilty of a crime.
Biden didn't use it as a defence. The special council who's job it was to investigate for anything that may have been done illegally and intentually so. And he did not find any evidence of such. The special council went beyond the scope of his job when he wrote that he thought his poor memory and age would make a jury feel sympathetic, making it hard to convict him..Special councils to investigate aren't the trail attorney choosing juries so adding such a statement makes no sense AND since he stated he found NO evidence indicating him guilty of anything illegal, then why all that blubber about a jury feeling sympathetic, since he didn't have evidence to even take it to a trial in the first place. WHY...... because he is digging in a party politics jab. One extremist Republics would latch onto without using any critical thinking skills. This special council is playing politic games and should himself be investigated. We can have that in rule of law. We got tgat corruption in the Supreme Court and we need to clean house there as well.
@@pamstuck2684
"And he did not find any evidence of such."
That is not true.
The Special Counsel said there were "willful" violations of the law, in both illegally possessing and storing classified documents.
He decided not to prosecute Biden because he concluded that a jury would find him too "elderly" and "forgetful" to convict.
@@charlesvan13 To be fair this report was written by a Trump-appointed special counsel who would go on to contradict many of the things said in the the opening later in the report. Like he said Biden willfully retained documents just to later say that there is not enough evidence to prove that. For the Memory, it could be a terrible thing like absolutely not knowing that his son died (which is unlikely) or something minor like oh I don't remember the year, but I know the day. Also when being interviewed by a prosecutor, it's suggested that if you aren't 100% sure of something (like a date or something along those lines) you say you don't remember. Most of this was brought up on Tuesday's episode of Pod Save America who were Obama staffers and had to go through their fair share of FBI interviews.
He is reading off teleprompter they need to give him a drug test this is elder abuse
Exactly.
here for the comments....what is going on??? This is insanity
You have no respect for a president doing a great job
He even said "continue quote" when he turned to the other teleprompter. I'd prefer to just get the read outs and not listen to him speak.
I'm trying to figure out what they are giving him to wind him up for 15 min and get him off the stage before the string makes it back in????
I wouldn't trust this guy running a bath let alone a country
I bet you’d trust Putin ? I mean Trump 😏
@@TeeJayDeluxehell yh why not 💀🤣
@@flavster01trumps the best president you have had, why do you think is support is so big
@@TeeJayDeluxePutin is 10x the leader Biden is.
I’ve just watched Putin give an uninterrupted 30 minute speech on the 1000 year history of Russia.
Only a few hours ago the DOJ deemed Biden’s so old and forgetful that he can’t remember being vice president, doesn’t remember he had a son that died and can’t be trusted to handle classified documents
@@flavster01 he can’t stop lying
49 years in politics 🤷♀️Maybe it’s a time to relax?
Yea, like taking a dirt nap.
Well, in 2020 Biden told. He was in the Senate 180 years ago 😂
@@leedex And USA Is 5.000 years 😊
Should’ve never been in politics.
He doesn't need anyone to help him remember, just a teleprompter.
The way they pick and choose who to charge and who to let slide is making Trumps case for him…they always treat Democrats with the benefit of the doubt, and now it just looks like undeniable favoritism and corruption.
Forgets the location, he got the rosary beads that he wears every day
Biden : memory is fine
5 minutes later
Biden : Mexican president Al sisi
First time that the press is not just throwing soft balls at him...and he is TERRIFIED!.
This is the time for ALL reporters to ask him if Aliens are real 😂🎉
When he was asked how he smuggled classified documents out of a secured skiff as a senator in violation of federal law, he said 'I don't remember'. So, either he remembers smuggling classified documents as a senator out of a secure skiff in his pants or sock and lied during questioning, or he doesn't remember. Sounds like he is saying, he remembered breaking the law and lied about it.
YES!!!
Now that he is saying that his memory is fine and nothing wrong with it - then they should charge and prosecute him.
He still didnt answer the question
Joe trump is a powerful man. He moved Egypt next to Mexico and made Sisi the president of Mexico 🇲🇽!
😂
Joe has repeatedly claimed his son died in Iraq while talking to gold star families so yeah I’d say he doesn’t remember when his son died
So, why did the Guardian ignore Biden’s return to the lectern and within 30 sec. confused the Presidents of Mexico and Egypt.
Media isn’t giving Biden the same criticism as the did on Trump. Hmm.
Let's start with the fact that Biden cooperated with the investigation...
He’s not fit for office
Our Lady of …….. “what”? In reference to his son’s rosary.
I bet this guy can’t even name every letter in the alphabets.
Would you trust Biden to drive a school bus if he was a bus driver?
Would you trust Biden to fly a plane if he were a pilot?
Would you trust Biden to perform surgery if he were a surgeon?
Yes, if you hated the passenger or patient.
Iwouldn't trust him to drive a nail
"My memory is that bad I let you speak" Ok
"I don't need anyone, I don't need anyone, to remind me when he passed away, passed away"
Sadly, no one ever did. In fact, you're the one who failed to remember "when" Joe.
JB's remarks at the beginning of the speech are factually inaccurate -"President Joe Biden willfully retained and shared highly classified information when he was a private citizen, including about military and foreign policy in Afghanistan" - Robert Hur
Last, JB's answer to the question asked @2:59 is most revealing because he's off script. You know, he's confused, angry, and hostile.
So if he's ok, he should be charged
Dude, it's going to be the Reagan bit all over again. "I don't remember doing that."
Except this time, this president clearly has dementia.
@@edwardhannah8507 he does indeed, and that's actually very scary as old people with dementia can be absolutely vicious and vile, you really don't want that near the big red button
Exactly!!
his memory is so bad he forgot how much america is 'back on its feet' right now
If only he felt this strongly about the 30000 largely innocent civilians killed in Gaza.
"Take a look of what ive done when i was president" Yeah prices and crimes and almost everything bad has gone up 💀
My memory is so bad that I let you speak.
Now, is there even a meaning in that sentence?
So, its not only memory, it is also logic and sentence formation.
But isnt it fun!
How his wife and family can allow this man to be propped up and put this obviously sick man in these positions is elder abuse. I know what dementia looks like, the more they question him and require him to answer questions being thrown at him as media and reporters generally do, is horrible. Its the fault of his wife and family that allow this to continue when the right thing to do is have him step down and give him a stress free and quiet life for the remainder.
Peter Ducey is allowed to speak due to the 1st Amendment not Joe's permission
To brainless to face his crimes,now theres a campaign slogan
I actually feel like im watching my grandad, he had dementia and the last memory i have of him was him pretending he was doing a briefing at work and actually not saying real words. At that point he had been retired 35 years.
Did he forget that he had seven grandchildren?
He can’t even keep himself on his feet
And trump can...
@@curiositypiqued6573he’s at least better than Biden lol.
@@PARK-sy3tfI don't think so... They're both old, we need fresh new faces.
Deflecting again and for sympathy
Well, if he’s saying they were wrong and his memory is not significantly limited then that surely questions their decision which was based on that and he is indeed, fit to stand trial. They believe he did willfully store documents and his limited memory is why they feel it was difficult to put him on trial.
More like swept this country of its feet 🤦🏻♂️
"My.....my....my......my....is fine......You know the thing. It's fine. The thing."
Biden..."My memory's full!"
"No, it's my DEPENDS that are full!"
Memory full... All 2 gigabytes
He seems to have forgotten what an appalling state the country (and indeed the world) is in and that his policies have directly contributed to this.
Didn't you hear what he said? "I got this country back on its feet". 😂
He’s denying that with the same enthusiasm he had while he ‘denied’ doing business with foreign countries while Vice President 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hospice come get your patient already!!!
Our lady of …………. ? Summit or another
Lollllllll. I literally held my breath and watch myself exhale.
Take his teleprompters away and see how he does. That would be the only test we need.
One uninterrupted 30min interview.
1:33 sat for what?
He’s said on numerous occasions that Beau died on active service in Iraq. (In public)
He died in the USA of ♋️
Left Wing media dropped those clips for political expediency.
Imagine if Trump made those same mistakes? The left wing media would jump right on it.
People with poor memory should not drive. How about if they are presidents? They are more dangerous than wars.
This is so embarrassing. It's very very bad. This guy needs to be removed from office immediately.
"From our Lady of..... " 😂😂😂😂😂 He just proved him right 🤣
the whole world laughs 😂😂
The steal continues.
From our Lady of…….. our Lady of…. Forgot which one Joe?!!
"...the special counsel said [mr biden] is a well meaning elderly man with a poor memory..."
sounds about right... 😂😂😂
Apart from the well meaning bit
I think they were very generous calling him well meaning
@@jamesgleave5403I think they were lying.
Telling people that your mentally okay constantly means that your not 😂
Biden was the one who said he takes cognitive tests all the time. If that was true, he's admitting he's off his kilter.
He’s reading off teleprompter 😭
What a drama , FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
🙄 he's a total Embarrassment to this Country❗❗❗❗
Seems like it sooo sorry
What I think most miss, he forgot Lady of Guadalupe, He did get Lady, and then went blank.
"Our Lady of ....*waves the dementia away*...."
You're just not cut out to lead a country sleepy . It's there for all the world to see . Your done .
Extremely frightening this man is president. Who is really running this country?
Thats the stand in. No way does the original string sentences to gether.
Teleprompter
Is this his excuse for stealing classidied documents?
He's a disgrace
1000’s of damming pages, his team finds a couple of lines to try and reject the whole document. His time is done
'My memory is that bad i let you speak'. Oh yes it's a classic symptom of failing memory, not letting people speak!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Joe's lost it.
'end of quote'
it is freedom of speech
Sounds like “leakage” it’s basically inadvertently telling the truth. It’s a big of language analysis. People actually accidentally tell the truth all the time. And if you’re clouded cognitively it will happen a lot.
Edit: it’s a big part of
It isn't the short term memory that matters, it's the years of priceless first hand experience our elders have accumulated. Where elders are valued, young people are able to learn from their experience and build on it, instead of floundering around repeating their mistakes
oh joe. last week he yelled at kids to get off his south lawn
Then he went on to fek up... Mexico / Egypt
Point out the obvious, he should have NEVER been president..
There should be an upper age limit for becoming a US president.
I'm betting Beau was just as sorry as hunter, he's just not around to demonstrate that for us.
Even Our Lady of Guadalupe isn't intercepting for him. She's like, " don't start trying to call on my name like we're friends!"
Retire old man
this poor man is going to be remembered for being one of the most incapable presidents. His mental decline is even more evident if you watch him from 10 years ago. Even before he was elected there were significant issues. He should have never been the candidate as now we are watching an old man being angry about his capacity
You can’t be honest and also say that he didn’t completely forget “our lady of…” It’s racist for him to not let Kamala run for POTUS.
'the rosary he got from Our lady of....' Forgets... What a disgrace.. As for his son HE NEVER SHUTS UP ABOUT HIM! The destruction of this evil old man's lies and immorality is LONG OVERDUE.
This is saddening and frightening. Holy sh*t! I have compassion, but come on, man. He's the guy that needs elder assistance.
Drill baby DRILL !!! Go get’m press !!!!!!!
TRUMP the ONLY choice IN 2024 !!!!
Some times journalists can be annoying
This guy needs to go ASAFP
i would like to see how he is at about 8pm i just need something answered
Can somebody please explain to me why Biden was not charged?? I do not understand why him being elderly has anything to do with whether they charge him or not??
He wasn't charged because there was no evidence with which to charge him. The "elderly" comment comes across as weak and irrelevant snark due to the frustration of finding no evidence.
Because he has a D after his name. If he had an R they would throw the book at him.
Shadow elite trilionaires want one not to be touched to further their interest that’s why is it really complicated lol
Update: for anybody interested, the reason is that in order to actually charge him they need to prove malicious intent. However due to his age they are saying that it was not intentional, just a simple mistake due to his poor mental state.
Sounds about right legally but still absolutely unfit to be in office and should be removed with immediate effect.
One of the most important interviews of our lifetime is being suppressed on all platforms.
The bbc said tucker carlsons 'floundering' news network covered it. The legacy media is the only thing floundering here
What an absolute shambles of a man
OUR LADY OF…….. I forgot!
" SO SPEAK YE , AND SO DO , AS THEY THAT BE JUDGED BY THE LAW OF LIBERTY . "
REAGAN couldn't remember a dam thing they let him back the white house the next day, you make the call.
He does not know where is son died . ....
Joe Loves to bring up Beau when it benefits him.
How dramatic.
How dare he ask him questions!!
Everyday i wear a rosary from the church he was buried, our lady of..... trail off incoherently.
Clearly he's still a genius
This guy is over. Period
Can he explain more about when he fought in the Vietnam war.
"...the investigator found that mr biden did nothing wrong..."
just like they found that hilary clinton didnt have classified emails on public servers even though she did? ...ok joe... 😂😂😂
I bet this guy can’t name the 12 months.
The judgment of the press yet you hear that
Why don't voters fully understand that he's senile?
