Rep. Jasmine Crockett Says She “Never had a Concern About” Biden’s Mental Acuity, Says She’s Concerned About Trump’s Mental Acuity

Far-left Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) told reporters on Wednesday that she is concerned about Trump’s mental acuity and ability to lead, but she “never had a concern” whatsoever about Biden’s health and mental acuity. 

She also defended Biden’s physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, for refusing to testify before the Oversight Committee and pleading the Fifth Amendment.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, O’Connor was subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee to testify on Joe Biden’s health decline. However, he pleaded the Fifth at his deposition on Wednesday after attempting to stall the deposition.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer responded to the doctor’s refusal to testify, stating, “It’s now clear there was a conspiracy to cover up President Biden’s cognitive decline after Dr. Kevin O’Connor, Biden’s physician and family business associate, refused to answer any questions and chose to hide behind the Fifth Amendment.”

But Jasmine Crockett defended his right to continue hiding the truth about Biden’s condition by pleading the Fifth, saying, “I think that he did what any good lawyer would advise him to do.”

She further attacked President Trump’s mental acuity, stating, “people have concerns about the current occupant in the White House and whether or not he is mentally fit to serve in this moment, in a moment in which he has started random tariff wars, in a moment in which he decided to say that we were being invaded by Venezuelans.”

Aides Panicked, Changed Biden’s Number After He Unknowingly Answered Reporter’s Call Then Started Answering Questions: New Book

Despite being out of office, former President Joe Biden’s aides are keeping a close watch on the former president and who he communicates with.

On Tuesday, Axios wrote about “2024,” a new book from reporters Josh Dawsey, Tyler Page, and Isaac Arnsdorf, who worked together at the Washington Post during last year’s presidential campaign.

As the title indicates, this book is about President Donald Trump’s campaign and subsequently victory to retake the White House, running first against Biden then former Vice President Kamala Harris.

Axios highlighted one especially sad, yet hilarious, moment that demonstrates just how lucky the American people are that we did not get a second Biden term and illustrates the extent of his lack of authority over his own decisions.

Pager called Biden on March 25 — two months after he left office — after having obtained his personal cell number.

“Biden said he would be willing to speak for this book the next day,” the authors wrote. “The next morning, he answered and said he was running late to catch a train. He said he had a ‘very negative’ view of Trump’s second term. … ‘I don’t see anything he’s done that’s been productive,’ he said.”

After saying he did not dwell on if he regretted dropping out of the race, Biden hung up the call.

Pager then received texts and calls from Biden’s aides, who were not happy: “After the first call,” the aides, “repeatedly called and texted [Pager]. After the brief second call, his aides blocked the reporter‘s calls to the former president,” the book continued.

“Two days later, a message from Verizon Wireless replaced Biden’s voicemail: ‘The number you dialed has been changed, disconnected, or is no longer in service.’”

Even post-presidency, Biden does not make his own decisions, his aides do.

Biden Doctor’s Refusal To Answer A Single Question Blows Up The ‘Doctor-Patient Privilege’ Excuse

Joe Biden’s White House doctor refused to answer a single question during a congressional interview on Wednesday, raising more concerns about efforts to conceal the former president’s decline while in office.

According to House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., Biden physician Kevin O’Connor pled the Fifth at his previously scheduled deposition with House lawmakers. The revelation came a day after the Trump administration waived executive privilege for O’Connor to sit down with members of the committee for the transcribed interview.

According to a House Oversight Committee official, O’Connor did not simply plead the Fifth on questions related to doctor-patient privilege, but on any and all prospective queries posed by lawmakers.

“The American people demand transparency, but Dr. O’Connor would rather conceal the truth,” Comer said in a statement. “Dr. O’Connor took the Fifth when asked if he was told to lie about President Biden’s health and whether he was fit to be President of the United States. Congress must assess legislative solutions to prevent such a coverup from happening again.”

What Is He Trying to Hide? Biden Doctor Desperately Trying to Stall Key Hearing, Cites Confidentiality

Former President Joe Biden’s White House physician is attempting to delay his testimony before Congress, citing concerns about the scope of lawmakers’ questions, sparking speculation that he is stalling for time.

Dr. Kevin O’Connor, who served as Biden’s physician during his presidential term, asked the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Saturday to “postpone his scheduled testimony over disagreements on the scope of the questions,” The Hill reported.

O’Connor is presently slated to give a deposition on Wednesday, as part of the committee’s investigation into Biden’s mental capacity, as well as his use of an autopen to sign legislation, orders, and pardons.

David Schertler, a lawyer for O’Connor, reportedly sent a letter to Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky — who chairs to committee — asking to postpone the start of the hearing to July 28.

In the letter, Schertler cited doctor-patient confidentiality as the main issue and said Republican lawmakers haven’t established what can — and cannot — be asked.

A committee representative accused O’Connor of trying to “stonewall” Congress, in comments made to NBC News.

Doctor-patient privilege is sacrosanct. Privacy should be expected and protected.

In Biden’s case, however, we’re talking about the leader of the free world. Divulging certain aspects of your life comes with the territory.

DNC Insider Spills the Beans: What Jill Biden Did ‘Was Absolutely Elder Abuse’

With the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform looking into the Biden administration and issuing subpoenas to many Biden staffers to review White House autopen use and the covering up of President Joe Biden’s mental decline, more people are coming forward with their stories.

In an interview with Fox News Digital, Li, a former National Finance Committee member and former DNC fundraiser, was described as having “a front-row seat to Joe Biden’s presidency and the people who pulled the strings behind the scenes.”

“[Biden is] definitely complicit, but there were a lot of people behind him, like puppet masters,” Li explained.

“[Former first lady Jill Biden] very much knew what she was doing. What she did was absolutely elder abuse.

“There is no question in my mind,” she asserted.

“Joe was not able to do a lot of campaign events, so Jill would come out on his behalf, acting like the president or the presidential candidate.

“That’s why she graced the Vogue cover three times. She loved it,” Li continued.

“If I were to pinpoint two reasons why Joe decided to run again, it would be two people: Jill and Hunter Biden. Because Hunter Biden’s freedom was on the line and Jill’s ego was on the line.”

She concluded, the then-first lady was the one in control of and running the White House — not Joe Biden.

Joe Biden Made Another Public Appearance, and Oh Boy

If you thought the spectacle of Biden behind a podium was a thing of the past, think again. This week, the former president emerged from his Delaware cocoon to deliver the keynote at the Society for Human Resource Management’s convention in San Diego. 

A couple of months ago, it was revealed that he was having trouble booking speaking gigs — probably because no one was going to fork over the $300,000 speaking fee reportedly attached to his name. 

The Society for Human Resource Management must have had a Groupon code.

So what kind of wisdom did Ol’ Joe share?

Biden was asked about what he’s doing these days. His answer? He’s “working on a memoir” about his time in the Oval Office, which he claims his publisher wanted delivered in “March of this year.” March? 

Does anyone really believe that a publisher was expecting a tell-all Biden tome that quickly, or is Joe once again hopelessly confused about the timeline? Or did the publisher figure that was ample time for a manuscript written in crayon? The answer was a rambling mess, the kind of meandering that’s become his trademark.

Then came the self-pity. Biden lamented that so much of what he “did” is being undone. He trotted out the tired claim that NATO was “in shambles” when he took office, and that he single-handedly strengthened the alliance and took on the invasion of Ukraine. Reality check: Russia invaded Ukraine under Biden’s watch, emboldened by his weakness on issues like Nord Stream 2 and the catastrophic Afghanistan withdrawal. 

President Donald Trump was the one who actually got NATO members to pay up for their own defense, not just in his first term, but even more so in his second. Trump is the one who’s been working to end the war that erupted under Biden’s nose, and it’s Trump who delivered real security by taking out Iran’s nuclear capabilities and brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Iran.

But Biden wasn’t done spinning yarns. He claimed that European leaders were calling him, pleading for him to “get engaged.”

“And I’m getting calls — I’m not going to go into them, I can’t — from a number of European leaders asking me to get engaged,” he said.

GOP Rep Calls For Jill Biden To Face Criminal Charges For ‘Elder Abuse’

Republican Illinois Rep. Mary Miller has called for former first lady Jill Biden to face criminal charges for elder abuse after her husband, former President Joe Biden, announced his cancer diagnosis following reports of significant mental deterioration throughout his term.

“Jill Biden was complicit in covering up Joe Biden’s mental and physical decline,” the congresswoman said in a post on X. “She should face CRIMINAL CHARGES for elder abuse!!”

In an interview with The Post , geriatric medical specialist Elaine Healy said that the former president is showing “telltale signs of elder abuse.”

“Visible bruising and other injuries from physical violence are obvious forms of abuse. Non-violent actions — like deprivation of food, causing weight loss, or intimidation, causing social withdrawal and personality changes — are also defined as abusive behavior,” she said.

“A more sinister type of elder abuse, however, involves the exploitation of an elderly individual for the abuser’s financial, personal, or — in this case — political gain,” the doctor said.

She also spoke about what the former first lady did with her husband after his infamous debate with then-GOP candidate Donald Trump, where she had to guide him off the stage.

“What was behind her insistence that he run for office when she, above all others, had to be aware of his failing cognitive capacities and declining physical health?” she said. “Is she a loving spouse or a master manipulator, using his dependency on her to control his decision-making? If the latter, she is engaged in elder abuse.”

Even Sally Quinn, a Washington Post columnist and outspoken critic of Trump, criticized Jill Biden.

‘Sky-High’ Levels of Alzheimer’s Protein Found in Newborns

A protein long blamed for the brain damage seen in Alzheimer’s disease has now been found in astonishingly high levels in healthy newborn babies, challenging decades of medical dogma.

The discovery could transform our understanding of both brain development and Alzheimer’s disease itself. The protein, called p-tau217, has been viewed as a hallmark of neurodegeneration – yet a new study reveals it’s even more abundant in the brains of healthy infants.

Rather than being toxic, p-tau217 may be essential for building the brain during early development.

To understand why this matters, it helps to know what tau normally does. In healthy brains, tau is a protein that helps keep brain cells stable and allows them to communicate – essential functions for memory and overall brain function. Think of it like the beams inside a building, supporting brain cells so they can function properly.

But in Alzheimer’s disease, tau gets chemically changed into a different form called p-tau217. Instead of doing its normal job, this altered protein builds up and clumps together inside brain cells, forming tangles that impair cell function and lead to memory loss typical of the disease.

For years, scientists have assumed high levels of p-tau217 always spell trouble. The new research suggests they’ve been wrong.

CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS? Researcher Suggests Biden’s Autopen Signatures May Not Be His (Likely Jill’s) – Meaning All Autopen Signed Documents Are Forgeries

A Missouri pharmacist suspects the Biden autopen signature is bigger than already reported.

On February 20, 2021 a Missouri pharmacist reached out to The Gateway Pundit and shared his observations on Biden’s signature to date.  (This was only a few weeks after Biden stepped into the White House and no doubt one of the first observations on Joe Biden’s signature on official documents.)

This pharmacist noted:

I am a pharmacist in Missouri. I read a few days ago that none of Biden’s Executive Orders have been posted to the Federal Register, so I looked, then, a few days ago. Those Executive Orders are showing up. However, I believe I have accidentally discovered his signature may be a forgery. I just sat on this discovery, thinking someone else more important would notice it. I guess no one has yet.

Part of my job as a pharmacist is to watch for forged doctor signatures and I am pretty sure Joe’s are forged. I suspect that he is embarrassed by his shaky signature and had his wife sign for his signature stamp used for official business. As you can see on the attachment the last three signatures are identical, indicative of a stamp, and that’s fine as long as it is his signature. Maybe that’s easier to submit to the Federal Register. Otherwise, I believe it is illegal to have someone else sign for a signature stamp that binds a legal document. I have seen the signature of doctors get shaky at the end of their careers, but never change in a single year as Joe’s purportedly has done.

If you have contact with a handwriting expert, perhaps you can have that person take a look. But look at the attachment I created, all from the public domain. Clearly, Joe has an established signature, but the last three signatures I have on the document are from separate Executive Orders that can be found online at the Federal Register. Clearly, in my opinion, they are not his signature. They look more like the signature of his wife, Jill, also on the attachment. Focus on the “B” in Biden. Perhaps an expert can offer a more definitive opinion.

“It May Blow This Whole Thing Open” – GOP Senator Schmitt Announces ‘First-Of-Its-Kind” Action on Biden Autopen Scandal

On Thursday evening, GOP Senator Eric Schmitt (MO) demanded access to sealed Biden autopen records after Neera Tanden admitted she controlled the autopen for more than a year and a half.

Ex-Biden official Neera Tanden admitted under oath to the House Oversight Committee during a closed-door testimony on Tuesday that she controlled Joe Biden’s autopen.

House Oversight Chairman James Comer recently identified five Biden aides who were involved in the cover-up of Joe Biden’s mental decline and autopen scandal.

Director of Domestic Policy Council Neera Tanden was brought before the Committee on Tuesday and admitted she was authorized to use Joe Biden’s autopen between October 2021 to May 2023.

According to the Washington Examiner, Neera Tanden testified that she was also authorized to direct the autopen; however, she denied manipulation or abuse.

Additionally, Neera Tanden admitted she would utilize the autopen without actually verifying from Joe Biden himself that it was an authorized action.

Earlier this year, the Oversight Project revealed six criminals were pardoned by Biden’s autopen on December 30, 2022, while Joe Biden was vacationing and golfing in St. Croix.

Based on Neera Tanden’s Tuesday testimony, she was likely behind the Biden autopen pardons while Joe Biden was golfing in the US Virgin Islands.
