Over the last few days, some rather interesting revelations have occurred regarding Joe Biden’s doctors.
Apparently, Joe Biden has been seeing a Parkinson’s specialist, but that is not even close to what was discovered on Monday.
Talking Points…
- White House doctor knew about Biden family business deals
- Specialist visiting White House for eight months
- Analysis
Rep. James Comer (R-KY) dropped the first bombshell this week when he sent a letter demanding that the White House physician come and testify before the House committee on two subjects. First, he wanted the doctor to testify regarding his statements about Joe Biden being mentally fit to serve as president. Second, he revealed that James Biden had consulted with Dr. Kevin O’Connor regarding his healthcare company, Americore.
Comer penned a letter to the doctor asking him to come in and testify on both issues. He wrote:
"After a concerning debate performance by President Biden against former President Donald Trump on June 27, journalists have rushed to report on what Americans have seen plainly for years: the President appears unwell.
"The Oversight Committee is concerned your medical assessments have been influenced by your private business endeavors with the Biden family.”
Comer then questioned if the doctor’s opinions had been tainted by his involvement in the Biden family’s business matters. Because of HIPAA laws, whether the doctor can even discuss Biden’s health issues without his consent remains to be seen, but Comer can definitely pull on the thread regarding the doctor consulting with James Biden for his healthcare business venture.
Monday was a very tense day in the White House. As all of these reports started to surface, another report broke that a Parkison’s specialist has been visiting the White House for the last eight months, apparently seeing Biden once a month. This has happened without administration officials saying a single word to the American people. Quite the opposite, actually, as they have been denying that anything was wrong with Joe Biden.
Dr. Kevin Cannard had eight visits over eight months, and the media blew up White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Monday, demanding answers, but she became very defensive when the media started firing off questions at her. Jean-Pierre seemed to imply that the doctor was there, but not necessarily for Joe Biden. She stated:
“There are thousands of military personnel who come onto this White House, many of them get the care from the White House Medical Unit. And so we need to be super careful.
“The medical unit hosts a wide range of specialists, from dermatologists to neurologists, and so I cannot speak to every person because there are actually security reasons to protect their privacy.”
That did not satisfy reporters, who pointed to the fact that the doctor’s visits had been reported in the White House visitor logs, which are public information. When Karine Jean-Pierre pushed back on the doctor’s visits, CBS News’ Ed O’Keefe became a bit agitated, stating:
“They’re in the White House visitor logs. It’s public! I looked it up before I came out here. It is right there for anyone to see.”
There were several very tense exchanges, with O’Keefe even telling Jean-Pierre that the White House press corps was very upset with the lack of information that had been shared with them regarding Joe Biden’s health. Jean-Pierre then shot back:
“I am telling you right now I am not sharing, confirming names from here. It is for security reasons. I am not going to do that, Ed. It doesn’t matter how hard you push me. it doesn’t matter how angry you get with me.
“I am not going to confirm a name, it doesn’t matter if it’s even in the log.”
Jean-Pierre tried to flip this around on the media, accusing them of making personal attacks, but that was hardly the case. I love that the media has finally had enough with the deception from this administration. And yes, I understand that due to HIPAA laws, Biden’s health is not public information, but he is the sitting president, and the American people very much have a right to know if something is wrong, especially during an election year. This is about to blow up the face of Democrats, who now may be forced to use the 25th Amendment to remove Biden.
