Overview

  • The probe, led by Rep. James Comer, aims to determine whether Democratic officials concealed President Biden’s mental and physical health issues during his term.
  • Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson’s book Original Sin details efforts by Biden’s inner circle to downplay his deterioration ahead of the 2024 re-election campaign.
  • Tapper has admitted he underreported the president’s health struggles and called the cover-up potentially worse than Watergate.
  • Accounts in Original Sin include aides planning to use a wheelchair for Biden and episodes like his failure to recognize George Clooney.
  • Biden’s recent disclosure of advanced prostate cancer has intensified calls for mandatory presidential health transparency and annual cognitive testing.
