Doctors have hospitalized former President Bill Clinton following a sudden onset of fever.
According to Fox News, He currently receives medical attention at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital, where he was admitted on a recent Monday afternoon to undergo tests and be observed.
According to Angel Urena, the spokesperson for the former president, Bill Clinton remains upbeat and is grateful for the high level of care provided by the hospital staff. Urena publicly expressed that the former president was admitted for reasons pertaining to his health, specifically a fever.
During a conversation with Fox News, Urena clarified that further details regarding Mr. Clinton's condition or the approximate time of his discharge were currently unavailable, indicating an ongoing evaluation by medical professionals.
Aside from his health concerns, Bill Clinton has been notably active in the public sphere. Earlier in December, he participated in the New York Times DealBook Summit in New York City. There, he offered insights into the controversial topic of presidential pardons, a matter recently highlighted by President Biden's pardon of Hunter Biden.
Bill Clinton compared this to his own decision in the late 1980s to pardon his brother, Roger Clinton after his incarceration related to drug charges. This comparison came up during a broader discussion of the complexities faced by individuals like his brother when attempting to reintegrate into society after serving their sentences.
Clinton's comments were specific about the additional societal challenges that Hunter Biden might face due to the nature of his offenses. He stated, "I think that the president did have reason to believe that the nature of the offenses involved was likely to produce far stronger adverse consequences for his son than they would for any normal person under the same circumstances."
Additionally, Bill Clinton recently released a memoir titled 'Citizen: My Life After the White House,' delving into his philanthropic efforts and experiences post-presidency.
A significant portion of the book addresses his regrettable association with Jeffrey Epstein. Clinton candidly expresses remorse over having met Epstein and the subsequent negative repercussions of their limited interactions, which focused on politics and economics.
In his reflections, Clinton highlights the lack of awareness about Epstein's criminal activities during the time of their acquaintance. "I wish I had never met him," Clinton writes, discussing the years of scrutiny triggered by travels on Epstein's jet, despite his claims of innocence in any criminal undertakings linked to Epstein.
During a public appearance, reflecting on his brother's past, Bill Clinton shared:
My brother did 14 months in federal prison for something he did when he was 20, and I supported it, and he testified, told the truth about what he'd done when he had a drug problem and helped to bring down a larger enterprise. And they sentenced him, and then he served 14 months, and then he got out. The real question was, would he ever be able to vote again? Would he ever be able to have normal citizenship responsibilities?
Currently, no one links Clinton's recent hospitalization to any past controversies, such as his interactions with Epstein. His spokesperson has emphasized that there were no improprieties in his relationship with Epstein.
As the former president undergoes testing and observation in the hospital, the nation watches and hopes for a swift recovery. Bill Clinton's recent activities underscore his ongoing engagement with critical issues facing society while also facing challenges related to his health.
