Obama’s Doctor Questions Biden’s Cognitive Testing Amid Scandal

Obama’s White House physician critiques lack of cognitive testing for Biden, sparking investigations into fitness and potential cover-ups.
In a striking revelation, a former White House physician under President Barack Obama has raised serious concerns about the lack of cognitive testing for former President Joe Biden during his tenure. Dr. Jeffrey Kuhlman, who once served in the White House Medical Unit, emphasized that Biden's physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, should have conducted such evaluations, especially considering Biden’s age during his last year in office.
Kuhlman’s pointed remark, 'Sometimes those closest to the tree miss the forest,' underscores a potential oversight in assessing Biden’s fitness—not just in terms of health, but in the broader sense of mental, physical, and emotional readiness for the presidency’s grueling demands. While acknowledging O’Connor as a competent doctor, Kuhlman questioned whether deeper issues might surface under scrutiny.
Adding fuel to the fire, President Donald Trump recently ordered an investigation into whether Biden’s aides misused presidential authority through an autopen, allegedly to mask cognitive decline. Trump’s directive labels this as a scandal of historic proportions, claiming the public was kept in the dark about who truly wielded executive power. Biden, in response, firmly denied any lack of involvement, asserting that all decisions—pardons, executive orders, and legislation—were his own.
Meanwhile, a special counsel report from early 2024 described Biden as a 'well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,' citing instances of forgotten key dates and personal events. This has only intensified scrutiny, with House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer subpoenaing O’Connor for a deposition, probing whether personal ties to the Biden family influenced medical assessments of the former president’s fitness.
The controversy extends beyond political lines, with recent publications detailing internal White House concerns over Biden’s mental state. As investigations unfold, questions linger about transparency and the true state of leadership during Biden’s presidency.

Well, folks, it seems the White House medical chart is reading more like a mystery novel these days. Did Biden’s doctor miss the ‘cognitive test’ checkbox, or was it buried under a pile of executive orders signed by an autopen? If power was indeed a pen stroke away from someone else, we’ve got a plot twist even Hollywood couldn’t script. Here’s a thought—maybe we need a cognitive test for the autopen itself to see if it’s smarter than we think!
