Biden’s Doctor Pleads Fifth in Health Probe
Dr. Kevin O’Connor, former President Joe Biden’s personal physician, invoked his Fifth Amendment rights and cited doctor-patient confidentiality during a closed-door House Oversight Committee hearing investigating Biden’s health and mental fitness. The committee, led by Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), subpoenaed O’Connor amid suspicions of a cover-up relating to Biden’s health, including claims of cognitive decline, use of an autopen, and other undisclosed issues. O’Connor’s lawyers argued that physician-patient privilege and an ongoing Department of Justice investigation justified his refusal to answer, emphasizing that pleading the Fifth does not imply guilt. Republican lawmakers accused O’Connor of participating in a conspiracy to hide Biden’s true condition, intensifying calls for greater transparency and legislative action. Biden has consistently denied any incapacity or cognitive issues, labeling such claims as 'ridiculous and false.' The controversy highlights ongoing partisan conflict over presidential health disclosures and the legal boundaries of medical confidentiality.
