President Joe Biden erupted in anger during a press conference that he called at the last minute on Thursday night to address the special counsel’s report on the criminal investigation into Biden’s handling of classified material.
In the report, which said that prosecutors would not file criminal charges, Special Counsel Robert Hur noted that Biden had serious memory issues during his interview with investigators.
In an apparent attempt to push back on the serious questions that were raised about his fitness for office, Biden announced a press conference with only several minutes’ warning.
During the event, Biden snapped at reporters for asking him about his mental fitness, even though 76% of Americans have said that his mental and physical fitness was a concern.
When asked about voters’ concern, Biden snapped: “That is your judgement! That is your judgement! That is not the judgement of the press.”
Biden then declared that he was “the most qualified person in the United States to be president.”

While discussing Israel’s war with Hamas, Biden mixed up world leaders, saying that “the president of Mexico, El-Sisi, did not want to open up the gate to allow humanitarian material to get in.”
Abdel Fattah El-Sisi is not the president of Mexico, he is the president of Egypt.
“I talked to him, I convinced him to open the gate,” Biden claimed. “I talked to Bibi to open the gate on the Israeli side.”
Biden says, on the Israel vs. Hamas war: "Initially, the president of Mexico Sisis did not want to open up the gate to allow humanitarian material to get in."

Biden then forgot the name of the church where his late son, Beau Biden, got the rosary that the president now wears every day.

Biden claimed that the special counsel did not accuse him of sharing classified information with the ghostwriter of his book in 2017, even though the special counsel said that Biden did exactly that.

Biden also fumed over the special counsel asking him when his son died and noting that Biden could not even remember within several years when he died.
Biden RIPS Special Counsel Robert Hur for saying in his report that he couldn't remember in Hur's interview when his son Beau died: "How in the hell dare he raise that? Frankly, when I was asked a question, I thought to myself, wasn't any of their damn business" pic.twitter.com/Rn9D1qXc4l
