House Oversight Investigates Biden Health Cover-Up Allegations

A recent book titled "Original Sin," authored by CNN's Jake Tapper and Axios' Alex Thompson, alleges that former President Joe Biden's cognitive and physical decline, including an aggressive prostate cancer diagnosis, was deliberately concealed by his inner circle to maintain the appearance of presidential fitness. The book details how Biden's aides limited his public appearances, and a group dubbed the “politburo,” including senior advisors and family members, effectively managed his duties as his health deteriorated. These revelations have sparked strong criticism from various quarters, including ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith, who warned that the Democratic Party risks significant damage to its future electoral prospects, and former Democratic Congressman Dean Phillips, who accused his party of lying and gaslighting the public about Biden’s health. Republican lawmakers, led by House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, have launched investigations into the use of an autopen for signing executive actions and pardons, questioning whether Biden was mentally capable of authorizing these decisions. The controversy has intensified calls for transparency and raised concerns about who was effectively running the White House during Biden's presidency. The debate underscores deep divisions and mistrust regarding Biden’s health and the Democratic Party’s handling of the situation.
