Biden Health Cover-Up: Congressional Hearing Needed to Learn Full Story

Late on Friday, the House Oversight Committee announced that it will resume its investigation of just how the White House operated near the end of Joe Biden’s presidency, given Biden’s cognitive impairment. Kevin O’Connor, the president’s former doctor, who never recommended that Biden take a cognitive test, will be called. So too will White House staffers who oversaw an overuse of the autopen, a mechanical device that replicates the president’s signature, to authorize executive orders and grant pardons.

The question is: Who decided what would be signed? It’s unclear. “Five people were running the country,” an unnamed source close to the Biden administration told CNN’s Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson of Axios, the authors of the explosive new book, Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again. “And Joe Biden was at best a senior member of the board.”
