Episode Details

Newly leaked audio tapes reveal Joe Biden discussing classified documents he kept after leaving office, sparking fresh scrutiny amid a two-year legal battle to release them. Special counsel Robert Hur, who investigated Biden’s handling of sensitive materials, declined to charge him, citing Biden’s cooperation and his age—calling him a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” The recordings show Biden referencing classified files, including his rationale for opposing the Afghanistan war, while also struggling to recall details, even suggesting he should write things down. The tapes also offer a rare glimpse into Biden’s past political considerations, including a candid conversation with Obama about running for president and concerns over his public speaking mishaps.
