On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Deadline: The White House,” Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.) responded to Special Counsel Robert Hur’s remarks about President Joe Biden, saying that Hur “testified… I have never written anything like that about anyone else.” “Under such hostile interrogation, if I were asked to identify exactly where I was, what year I was, etc., even if I didn’t just look at one person’s photo, The worst crime in history was committed against Israel. ”
Himes said: “There were a lot of aspects of this report that raised questions in my mind. What’s getting a lot of attention now is whether President Biden, if he chooses to do so, could tell jurors — exactly? I can’t remember his words — it was the special prosecutor’s judgment that he might be treated as a forgetful old man.The special prosecutor wrote something like that about the president, but he also wrote about other people who testified against the president and about the president. The fact that he didn’t write about the people he expelled, and that the special counsel was speculating about possible defense strategies, is pretty wild. And again, let me point out what should be obvious to everyone. That said, the President of the United States sat in a deposition. By the way, no one wants to sit in a deposition. I don’t know about you, but in such a hostile interrogation, I don’t know when… , if I were asked to identify exactly where I was and for what year, I would have a very hard time, even if I didn’t just look at the photos. One of the worst crimes ever committed against Israel. So I’m a little puzzled why the special counsel chose to make a statement that he didn’t need to make.”
