House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer has issued a statement regarding Dr. Kevin O’Connor's decision to plead the Fifth Amendment during his deposition. According to Comer, this move by Dr. O'Connor indicates a possible "conspiracy to cover up President Biden’s cognitive decline."
Dr. O'Connor, who is President Biden’s physician and family business associate, opted not to answer questions related to the President's health and whether he was instructed to misrepresent Biden's fitness for office. Comer emphasized that "the American people demand transparency," suggesting that Dr. O’Connor is choosing to hide the truth.
Comer stated that Congress should consider legislative measures to prevent similar situations in the future and affirmed the committee's commitment to interviewing additional White House aides for further information.
