The Justice Department will not charge President Biden for willfully holding onto and disclosing classified materials after leaving the Obama Administration and becoming a private citizen. In a nearly 350-page report, the special counsel says the evidence did not establish Biden's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt but did raise the question of the president's mental acuity.

This episode: political correspondent Susan Davis, senior White House correspondent Tamara Keith, and justice correspondent Ryan Lucas.
