Biden’s White House doctor will be grilled by Congress over ‘cognitive decline,’ reveals lawmaker

A Republican lawmaker revealed Joe Biden‘s White House doctor will be grilled by Congress over the former president’s cognitive health. 

Republicans and some Democrats have long called for the truth behind what they claim is a cognitive decline in the 82-year-old during his presidency. 

Now, Texas Representative Ronny Jackson, who has a medical degree, said Dr. Kevin O’Connor will have to speak for the Democrat leader’s health. 

‘Dr. Kevin O’Connor will absolutely, positively be implicated in the cover-up of this,’ Jackson told the New York Post. ‘I guarantee you Kevin O’Connor has medical information that the American people don’t have. 

‘I’ve known him for a long time; he’s part of the Biden family. He would do or say anything to cover up and protect that family, regardless of what it meant professionally for him,’ the GOP representative accused. 

‘This could not have been covered up without him – and Jill Biden – in particular.’ 

O’Connor had previously said the then-president’s health was ‘excellent’ and there was nothing to worry about just days before Biden dropped out of the 2024 race. 

Many Americans and lawmakers, like Jackson, were also suspicious of Dr. Kevin Cannard eight visits to the White House between July 2023 and March 2024. Cannard specializes in Parkinson’s at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

Trump Should Release The Audio From Robert Hur’s Interview With Joe Biden

President Donald Trump has already given us thousands of files on the JFK assassination, and now he’s pushing for the Epstein files to see the light of day. But there’s something else we need from him — the audio from special counsel Robert Hur’s interview with Joe Biden.

Hur declined last February to pursue charges against then-President Biden for retaining top-secret documents. Hur described Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory” and said that “based on our direct interactions with and observations of [Biden], he is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify reasonable doubt.”

“It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness,” the report continued.

Hur also found Biden’s memory “appeared to have significant limitations” and said Biden was unable to remember the start and end date of his vice presidency. Biden could not recall specific dates in relation to his son’s death “even within several years” and had a “hazy” recollection “when describing the Afghanistan debate that was once so important to him.”

The report undercut claims from the left that Biden was “sharp as ever” and possessed “strong mental acuity.” And surely if (as David Harsanyi wrote in these pages), “all of this is true … why [was] the president trying to suppress audio of the interview?”

Of course it was because none of the Democrats’ carefully crafted illusion of a clear-headed commander in chief was true. In fact, Biden only further reinforced concerns about his mental state when he gave a speech about the report’s findings, accusing Hur of raising the topic of his son’s death.

“How in the hell dare he raise that?” Biden asked — but it was Biden who brought up the topic, according to a transcript of the interview.

Republicans issued subpoenas for a copy of the audio tapes after the report came out, with concerns raised as to whether the transcript was edited and does not match the audio. Such a concern was only bolstered when Hur later testified before the House Judiciary Committee in March of 2024 that the White House asked he make “certain edits” to the report.

“They Were Literally Michael Jacksoning Him”: Incredible Details Of Biden’s Decline Emerge

Wild details of Joe Biden’s rapid cognitive and physical deterioration have emerged in a new book, as it is revealed that handlers were trying to cover up signs of Biden’s physical decline with make up.

Excerpts have emerged from a new book by entitled “Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House,” by The Hill Senior Political Correspondent Amie Parnes and NBC News Digital Senior political analyst Jonathan Allen that reveals Democrats and Biden insiders were all too painfully aware of what was going on, but all went along with the facade until it was no longer possible to hide it.

In one excerpt, a former Biden aide shared how they had a resident make-up artist to cover up how dilapidated Biden’s physical appearance had become. 

As conservative commentator Stephen L. Miller puts it “they were literally Michael Jacksoning him” then calling anyone who questioned Biden’s acumen a conspiracy theorist.

It’s one small step away from whacking sunglasses on the ‘Weekend At Bernie’s’ corpse.

On some occasions, Biden would get the make up done, and then cancel the briefings.

Another incident saw Biden not recognising or knowing who Rep. Eric Swalwell was and having to be coached into remembering him.

The Hill notes…

Swalwell had not been invited to the White House often, like most members of Congress, but when Biden and Swalwell came face to face, Biden didn’t immediately recognize the congressman, according to the book. 

Swalwell needed to note personal details to remind Biden of who he is. 

While they all remained quiet at the time, Miller notes that everyone is coming out of the woodwork now the book deals are being bandied around.

The Cover-up of Biden’s Cognitive Decline Was Even Worse Than We Thought

While we’ve all witnessed Joe Biden’s countless gaffes, confused wanderings, and incoherent ramblings over the past three years, what’s been happening behind the scenes is far more disturbing than anyone imagined. A bombshell new book reveals that while the White House was busy assuring Americans that Biden was a “vigorous” leader fully capable of executing his duties, Kamala Harris’s team was secretly planning for his potential departure — or death — as early as January 2023.

The revelations come from “FIGHT: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House,” a forthcoming book by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes that exposes the shocking extent of the Biden administration’s cover-up. 

More startlingly still, the book also reports that aides to Kamala Harris, the vice-president who assumed the nomination then lost to Trump, “strategized around the possibility that Biden might die in office”.

Such planning was led by Jamal Simmons, Harris’s White House communications director, Parnes and Allen report, and went as far as the drawing up of a “death-pool roster” of federal judges who might swear Harris in.

Simmons “never told the vice president about the death-pool roster before leaving her camp in January 2023,” the authors write, “but he advised colleagues that he should be notified immediately if something happened to Biden, because he had worked out an entire communications strategy. And he left the spreadsheet with another Harris aide.”

Let’s put this into perspective, shall we? While White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor claimed that “President Biden remains a healthy, vigorous, 80-year-old male, who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency, to include those as Chief Executive, Head of State and Commander in Chief,” Kamala’s team was maintaining spreadsheets of federal judges who could swear her in as president at a moment’s notice.  

The same administration that repeatedly mocked concerns about Biden’s cognitive decline was actively preparing for multiple scenarios of his departure, including him leaving office “against his will.” A campaign official admitted, “It shows what we had to do to prepare with the unique circumstances we had, which was an 80-plus-year-old president who was running.”

The lengths to which Biden’s handlers have gone to prop him up are equally alarming. The book reveals the White House used neon-colored tape on floors to guide his movements — a fact confirmed by an aide who casually noted, “He knows to look for that.”

The Autopen, The Presidency And The Constitution: What To Know

The “autopen” is in vogue. On March 17, President Donald Trump announced in a late-night social media post that he would ignore several pardons issued by his predecessor, President Joe Biden, because they were allegedly signed by autopen.

An autopen is a machine that reproduces handwriting. In the case of elected officials, who are expected to sign thousands of official documents on a regular basis, autopens are often used to reproduce their signatures in lieu of them signing each paper by their own hand.

The use of autopens has raised constitutional questions for some after Trump’s accusations of autopen use by Biden. They say that autopen use casts doubt on whether Biden knew the documents were being signed at all, thus implicating their validity.

“I worked in [the White House] for several presidents,” wrote K.T. MacFarland, a former deputy national security adviser during Trump’s first administration, on social platform X. “If Biden himself granted these pardons, there will be paper trail. If not, the guy running autopen machine usurped presidential authority.”

In a Jan. 20 statement that announced the pardons that were later challenged by his successor, Biden stated: “I am exercising my authority under the Constitution to pardon General Mark A. Milley, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the Members of Congress and staff who served on the Select Committee, and the U.S. Capitol and D.C. Metropolitan police officers who testified before the Select Committee.”

The Epoch Times is unable to independently verify whether the pardons were signed by autopen or not.

The Biden Presidential Library at the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) denied The Epoch Times’ Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for Biden administration records about autopen use, citing a statute that prevents their release for five years after a president leaves office.

The former president, who has not yet established a post-presidential office, is not reachable.

Courts have opined that presidential pardons need not be written, and may be granted orally.

On whether writing is required as part of the president’s exercise of the clemency power, “The answer is undoubtedly no,” ruled the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit in 2024. “The plain language of the Constitution imposes no such limit.”

HERE WE GO: Trump Declares Biden’s ‘Autopen’ Pardons “VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT”

The political reckoning has begun.

President Donald Trump has delivered a devastating blow to the radical left’s anti-Trump crusade, declaring the shady “pardons” issued by Sleepy Joe Biden to be “VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT.”

In a late-night announcement on Truth Social, Trump announced:

“The “Pardons” that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen.

In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them! The necessary Pardoning Documents were not explained to, or approved by, Biden.

He knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed a crime. Therefore, those on the Unselect Committee, who destroyed and deleted ALL evidence obtained during their two year Witch Hunt of me, and many other innocent people, should fully understand that they are subject to investigation at the highest level.

The fact is, they were probably responsible for the Documents that were signed on their behalf without the knowledge or consent of the Worst President in the History of our Country, Crooked Joe Biden!”

Second Biden Autopen Discovered: New Analysis of Second Frequently Used Autopen for Biden’s Pardons

The Biden Autopen scandal is growing by the day.

A second Biden Autopen has been discovered by the Oversight Project.

The Oversight Project discovered there was a second frequently used autopen signature for Joe Biden’s pardons and commutations.

Autopen A and Autopen B have slight differences in the signatures.

Analysis by the Oversight Project reveals out of 51 clemency warrants issued by Biden: 16 were signed with Autopen A, 16 were signed with Autopen B and 19 appear to be wet signatures.

Explosive Update to Biden Autopen Scandal Reveals Unelected Staffer’s Role

As PJ Media previously reported, a bombshell investigation by the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project revealed that nearly every document during Biden’s presidency was signed by autopen, with only one authentic signature confirmed — his letter announcing withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race. 

The presidential autopen has been in use since the 1950s, which has sparked ongoing debate over its legality. In 2013, Barack Obama became the first president to use it to sign a bill into law while vacationing in Hawaii. His office justified the move with a 30-page memo from George W. Bush’s legal team, which argued that a president’s physical presence wasn’t necessary as long as the signature was authorized.

But Joe Biden’s cognitive decline raised legitimate questions as to whether he was aware of official documents being signed on his behalf, or if they were even authorized. Speaker Mike Johnson previously revealed that Biden couldn’t even recall signing an LNG exports executive order, raising serious questions about whether someone was signing documents with the autopen without Biden’s authorization. 

According to an explosive report from the New York Post, a senior Biden aide may have been wielding presidential power through liberal use of the autopen and essentially acting as a shadow president. One White House source painted a chilling picture:

One Biden White House source told The Post they suspect that a key aide to the then-president may have made unilateral determinations on what to auto-sign. The Post is not publishing that staffer’s name due to the lack of concrete evidence and refutations by other colleagues. 

The Biden aide, who did not respond to requests for comment, would frequently make mention of what “the boss” wanted, the source said, but compatriots would have “no idea” if it was true because the internal culture was to not ask questions.

Even more disturbing, another source revealed the extent of this aide’s power:

“Everyone” was suspicious of this individual exceeding their authority when claiming to speak for the president, the source said. “But no one would actually say it.” 

“I think [the aide] was using the autopen as standard and past protocol,” The Post’s informant said. “There is no clarity on who actually approved what — POTUS or [the aide].”

A second Biden White House source agreed that the person was suspected of assuming the then-president’s positions and handing down orders without it being clear if they actually had communicated with the commander-in-chief.

“If they’re carrying out the president’s will, it doesn’t seem like an issue,” Attorney Mike Davis, an outside advisor to Trump, told The Post. “If they’re not carrying out the president’s will, it’s a huge issue—it’s criminal.”

Oversight Project investigation: Biden autopen signature used on ‘every document we could find’

The Oversight Project, an investigative arm of the conservative Heritage Foundation, alleged an excessive use of autopen signature by former President Biden when he was in the White House.

“We gathered every document we could find with Biden’s signature over the course of his presidency. All used the same autopen signature except for the announcement that the former President was dropping out of the race last year,” the organization wrote on X alongside examples of Biden’s autopen signature. 

The Oversight Project is questioning “who controlled the autopen” because “they controlled the presidency.”

Following the Oversight Project findings, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey called for the Department of Justice to investigate whether Biden’s “cognitive decline allowed unelected staff to push through radical policy without his knowing approval.”

Bailey argued that if the widespread autopen use turns out to be true, “these executive orders, pardons, and all other actions are unconstitutional and legally void.”

Here’s a 10-Minute Video That Obliterates the Liberal Media’s Protection of Joe Biden

We know about the liberal media cover-up regarding Joe Biden’s mental health. It wasn’t a mid-way through his term crisis either. On day one, his staff noticed he was losing his marbles and did whatever they could to hide this from the public. Toward the end, it was clear to voters that Biden had retreated into the bunker, the beach, or anywhere that would limit access to the White House Press Corps. Many reporters knew of his condition and said nothing out of fear of helping the Republicans or losing access.

Here’s the quintessential video that obliterates the protection the establishment press afforded the former president, sticking to the script despite Joe being a mumbling, confused mess before the nation. The top talking point was “fiery,” repeated so often that it could be a drinking game.
