While questioning Hur in the House of Representatives, Dean asked him to read from the section of the report that contrasted Biden's actions with Trump's.

"The allegations set forth in the indictment of Mr. Trump, if proven, would present serious aggravating facts," Hur began.

"Keep going," Dean prodded

"Congresswoman, I'm happy to have you read the words of my report," Hur offered.

However, Dean wouldn't take no for an answer.

"It's your report, so I think it actually is more fitting that you read those," she said.

Hur then continued.

"Most notably, after being given multiple chances to return classified documents and avoid prosecution, Mr. Trump allegedly did the opposite," he said.

"Keep going," said Dean.

"According to the indictment, he not only refused to turn over the documents for many months but he also obstructed justice by enlisting others to destroy evidence and lie about it," he said.

"You may stop there," said Dean.
