Biden’s Doctor Subpoenaed in Cognitive Decline Cover-Up Probe

In a dramatic turn of events, the personal physician of former President Joe Biden, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, has been subpoenaed to testify before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. Led by Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the committee is intensifying its probe into allegations of a cover-up surrounding Biden’s cognitive decline during his time in the White House.

The deposition, scheduled for June 27, seeks to uncover whether Dr. O’Connor played a role in concealing the true state of Biden’s mental and physical fitness to serve as president. Comer’s investigation also raises questions about unauthorized executive actions, including sweeping pardons, and whether the doctor’s close ties to the Biden family influenced his medical assessments.

Adding a touch of irony to the proceedings, Comer took to social media to assure the public that no autopen was used to sign the subpoena—a subtle jab at Biden’s reliance on the device for presidential duties. Despite earlier requests for a voluntary interview, Dr. O’Connor declined, prompting the formal subpoena after the White House previously blocked his testimony.

Concerns about Biden’s health were a recurring theme during his presidency, but scrutiny has skyrocketed since his departure from office, especially following a recent prostate cancer diagnosis. While annual reports from Dr. O’Connor consistently gave Biden a clean bill of health, speculation about his mental sharpness grew louder in 2024, with both political sides demanding transparency.

Dr. O’Connor, who has been overseeing Biden’s health since 2009, shares a notably close relationship with the former president and his family. This connection is now under the microscope, as the committee questions whether personal or financial ties may have swayed his professional judgment. As this investigation unfolds, the American public awaits answers to whether the full truth about Biden’s fitness was ever disclosed.
