Watch out for the sloppy reporting in the Salon piece. For example, it states:
Vietor DID tweet that, but Salon doesn't mention that Hur didn't make that claim. Rather, Hur claimed Biden couldn't remember the YEAR (not DAY).
“He did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died,” the report said. (source NBC).
I liked Tamara Keith's more accurate coverage posted over here: https://www.wbur.org/npr/1237745840/biden-hur-report-memory-classified-documents
