Overview

  • Sen. Josh Hawley says an unnamed Secret Service agent told him Biden would sometimes get disoriented and literally could not find his way out of his White House closet.
  • Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is investigating allegations that Biden’s staff used an autopen to sign executive orders and pardons without his direct involvement.
  • Comer has threatened to issue subpoenas if former aides and Dr. Kevin O’Connor decline to appear for voluntary testimony on the president’s health and decision-making.
  • Biden disclosed this month that he is battling an aggressive, late-stage form of prostate cancer, prompting scrutiny over why the diagnosis was not revealed earlier.
  • Senators John Cornyn and Eric Schmitt have warned the unfolding probes raise constitutional questions about who exercised presidential authority during periods of Biden’s purported decline.
