Lawrence: It was a bad day for House GOP Trump fanatics and their star witness

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell describes how Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report on Biden’s handling of classified documents failed to “identify a single thing Joe Biden did that anyone has ever been prosecuted for” and was “not accurate in its description of Joe Biden as an elderly man with unusual memory problems.”

[@Veritas2154]

It seems, the only person with a faulty memory in that deposition is the person who conducted it. Mr Hur. Time for an apology? I won't hold my breath.

[@maharajjinkb7824]

Summary - Biden mishandled classified docs. Hur tried to be compassionate by not pressing charges. Dems are all in a tizzy because Hur said Biden's mental faculties were fading.

[@Franklin-pc3xd]

Read the actual steno-transcript and not the MSNBC/O'Donnell Gaslight version. I'll bet you don't take the time to do that but, if you do, you will see how completely fogged Biden was, how the whole segment on his kid's death date was a clown show, how Biden's lawyers had to step in and help him - and how they themselves got dates wrong. When you read the actual transcript, assuming you can read a deposition transcript, you will see how deeply O'Donnell lied do you in this report.

Under normal circumstances, he would be held accountable; the American people would be outraged and demand that Republican leadership clean up their act. But unfortunately, the Republican party is a cult, and people don't want to admit they made such a stupid mistake, so they stay in the cult. And people in the "middle" are weak and waffle and don't want to face how crazy the right has become. So here we are. Great system, if people have the courage for the most basic level of self-awareness. But right now its not happening.

[@hugofeldhammer7590]

@@daydays12 Yes, I think that is really important. To us - not so much. But many of the MAGA crazies will simply dismiss this information in case the congress woman would have read it. Instead, they are forced to see Hur himself talking about it. Not so easy to dismiss - even though I admit that they are so used to mental gymnastics that they probably find a way to dismiss anyways. I find it so frustrating and horrific that many people ignore information when told by the "wrong person". Information is information and always need to be checked for credibility, no matter who is saying it. We know that Donald J6 Trump lies a lot, but even he will tell you things that might be factually correct. In the other way around, as we have seen, Biden is able to truthfully talk about his work, even though he makes errors as well (which he can admit, which I absolutely appreciate). The strong believe that "our side said it, so it must be true, and the other side said it, so it must be a lie" is simply so wrong, but it explains so much about why so many people hold on to certain believes.

[@yvettemontalvo7991]

Hur came into that hearing with a certain mindset knowing he was gonna get called out for what was is n the actual transcript and that admitting that his report and the transcript will not favor him. In other words, it would be an admission of guilt. Falsifying a judicial report could land him in jail, however, reading whats in the report or rather saying thats what it says in that page is his way of pleading the 5th.

The AL legislature has done the same and despite a SC (yes) order to not use the new map the AL legislature is in full rebellion refusing to obey the US SC order and they will get away with it because come June it’s too late to change the districting maps and the SC will bow and allow the map to be used for ‘this election’ only.

It feels like Hur is trying to suggest that the problem is with the transcript instead of his sketchy report. I wish someone had asked him if that's what he was implying with his "that's the word used on page 47, yes" when he should have been saying "that's the word i used, yes".

That was a great moment.
