President Joe Biden’s personal attorney Bob Bauer declined to say whether he supports releasing the transcript of the president’s meeting with special counsel Robert Hur, which raises questions about Biden’s mental acuity. .
In a scathing report released last week, Mr. Xu detailed Mr. Biden’s “poor memory” as the basis for his decision not to prosecute the president for mishandling classified documents.
Bauer acknowledged on CBS News that a transcript of the interview existed, but declined to say whether he supported its release. Let’s face the nation on sunday.
“Yes, there are records, and as you heard, [White House Counsel spokesman] Ian Sams said in the press conference room that discussions are ongoing as this is a confidential document about what could be released, if it will be released and when it will be released. . I can’t add anything to this today,” Bauer said.
Asked if he wanted the records released, Bauer declined to say.
“This is actually a decision that should be made within the government. This is a classified document,” Bauer said.
When pressed again, Bauer again refused to say whether he supported releasing the records.
“Again, there’s a process going on. I’m not an expert on that process. So I really have to defer to the people who have to deal with those issues,” he said. .

Bauer claims that Biden “picked apart” Xu’s questions during the interview and that the president’s interview was cherry-picked by Xu in a “highly misleading manner.”
“He worked diligently, answered questions, and the special counsel’s decision to cherry-pick some of the references you’re discussing here in a very misleading way is what I think is a really poor performance.” It’s an example of what you call a thing, and it’s completely out.” That’s the limit for a prosecutor,” Bauer said.
