    Two shortcomings:

    The first is Hur’s description of Biden’s memory, which really does do Biden a bit of an injustice. The second, and more important, of the flaws is Hur’s analysis of a February 2017 comment by the then former vice president that serves as the nexus to some key evidence Hur cites for Biden’s supposed wrongdoing.

    In the memory one, Hur writes about how Biden misremembers who said something back in 2009, but fails to mention that Biden corrected himself.

    In the evidence one, Hur fails to give context to a quote about “documents downstairs” that is actively used in his report, arguably rendering the use of the quote intentionally misleading.
