Biden Team Questions Scope and Necessity of Special Counsel's Investigation
• Jen Psaki suggested investigating special counsel Robert Hur for overstepping norms with his extensive investigation into Biden's handling of classified documents
• Hur's 15-month investigation and commentary went beyond typical special counsel norms, per Biden's attorney Bob Bauer
• Bauer asserted Hur could have concluded his investigation in a few months since it was clear Biden did not criminally mishandle documents
• Hur highlighted Biden's memory lapses as an explanation for not prosecuting, which Bauer felt was irrelevant and hurtful
• Bauer said Hur failed to comply with Justice Department policies and norms with the breadth of his investigation and commentary
