Special Counsel Robert Hur is scheduled to testify on Capitol Hill on Tuesday following his months-long investigation of President Biden’s handling of classified documents.

The Details: According to CNN (Lean Left bias), a Justice Department spokesperson said Hur is no longer with the department, following the finishing of his work last week, meaning he will be testifying as a private citizen.

For Context: Hur released his report in February, and declined to charge Biden, but did emphasize the President’s “poor memory” and old age, which enraged the White House. Hur’s report sparked additional age-based criticism of Biden from Republicans, some of whom argued it meant Biden was “unfit to stand trial.”

How The Media Covered It: CNN didn’t mention Hur’s direct statements from his report regarding Biden’s age, but emphasized the criticisms he’s received from both Democrats and Republicans; and how that may set him up for intense questioning. BBC (Center bias) and Fox News (Right bias) framed their coverage and contentions around Hur as a witness through his comments on Biden’s age and memory. BBC prominently offered analysis in its coverage: “Voter concerns over Mr Biden's age mean Republicans will focus on the remarks.

Robert Hur, at the start of his special counsel probe into Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents, was lauded as an experienced and fair federal prosecutor who was well-versed in handling high-profile and complex investigations.

Then, after a year of near-total public silence, he released a damning report detailing the president’s alleged previous mishandling of classified material. Hur, a former US attorney appointed by then-President Donald Trump, was met with resounding backlash from Democrats, including from Biden himself.

US lawmakers will grill special counsel Robert Hur on Tuesday, weeks after his report into Joe Biden's handling of classified documents shook Washington.

The report found Mr Biden "wilfully" retained troves of files, but declined to charge him with a crime.

Mr Hur said a jury would view the president as a "well meaning, elderly man" with a "poor memory", in comments that enraged the White House.

Voter concerns over Mr Biden's age mean Republicans will focus on the remarks.

Special Counsel Robert Hur is expected to testify on Capitol Hill on his findings following months of investigating President Biden's mishandling of classified records.

Hur will testify publicly at the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday at 10 a.m. 

Hur, who released his report to the public in February, did not recommend criminal charges against Biden for mishandling and retaining classified documents and stated that he wouldn't bring charges against Biden even if he were not in the Oval Office.
