Overview
- Jeffrey Kuhlman, who served as Obama’s doctor, said Biden and all officeholders over 70 should undergo annual neurocognitive exams and criticized Dr. Kevin O’Connor for omitting them during Biden’s February 2024 physical.
- O’Connor’s report described Biden as a “healthy, active, robust 81-year-old male” after a routine physical and neurological check but included no formal cognitive assessment.
- Special Counsel Robert Hur noted in his 2024 classified documents report that Biden’s memory exhibited “limited precision and recall,” intensifying scrutiny of the president’s mental acuity.
- Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer issued a subpoena for O’Connor to appear on June 27 to investigate whether Biden’s fitness for office was misrepresented to the American public.
- President Trump has instructed the Justice Department to review whether individuals conspired to deceive voters about Biden’s mental fitness while he held the presidency.
