The Republican-led House Oversight Committee sought to question White House physician Dr. Kevin O'Connor Sunday, questioning his independence in light of financial ties to US President Joe Biden's family.
Comer notes reports that the doctor has recommended against a formal cognitive test for the president, questioning whether his business connections to the Biden family impinge on his ability to serve his role as White House physician.
"To understand the extent of your involvement in the Biden family's financial activity, we request that you produce all documents and communications in your possession regarding Americore and James Biden. Additionally, the Committee requests you make yourself available for a transcribed interview with Committee counsel." One former Biden aide recently told the website Axios that the president had "Lost all independence" in his official duties as "a protective bubble" is formed around him.
Another claimed the US leader requires help remembering acquaintances "He has known for a long time." President Biden is the oldest president in US history, taking office in 2021 at 78 years old - one year older than the previous oldest President Ronald Regan was when he left the White House at the age of 77.The president's performance at a televised debate with former President Donald Trump on June 27 led to widespread concern over his mental acuity, from some Democrats as well as Republicans.
"Americans question President Biden's ability to lead the country, and the Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating circumstances surrounding your assessment in February of this year that 'President Biden is a healthy, active, robust 81-year-old-male, who remains fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency.'".
"Given your connections with the Biden family, the Committee also seeks to understand if you are in a position to provide accurate and independent reviews of the President's fitness to serve."
"To understand the extent of your involvement in the Biden family's financial activity, we request that you produce all documents and communications in your possession regarding Americore and James Biden. Additionally, the Committee requests you make yourself available for a transcribed interview with Committee counsel."
