THE SCROLL: Former Special Counsel grilled over classified documents found at Penn Biden Center, Biden's basement and garage

”The Scroll” is Campus Reform’s serial coverage of social media postings and debates that relate to liberal bias in higher education. 

On Tuesday, Robert Hur, the recently resigned Special Counsel for the Department of Justice, was grilled before the House Judiciary Committee concerning his investigation into President Biden’s alleged mishandling of classified documents from his time as vice president. 

Although Hur ultimately did not recommend prosecuting Biden, Democrats such as Congressman Adam Schiff took issue with Hur’s nearly 350-page report characterizing Biden as a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” During the hearing, Schiff accused Hur of invoking his own “personal, prejudicial, subjective opinion” of Biden’s health in order to aid Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.
