Biden’s former doctor refuses to answer questions in House Republican probe
WASHINGTON, D.C., JUL 9 – Dr. Kevin O'Connor declined to answer questions citing Fifth Amendment and doctor-patient privilege during a GOP probe into claims of a cover-up about Biden’s cognitive health.
- Dr. Kevin O'Connor, President Joe Biden's former White House physician, invoked his Fifth Amendment rights and declined to provide testimony during a House Oversight Committee hearing on Wednesday.
- This refusal occurred amid a Republican-led investigation into Biden's mental acuity and fitness while in office, which includes examining the validity of policies signed using Biden's autopen.
- Dr. O'Connor invoked doctor-patient privilege and his Fifth Amendment rights during a roughly hour-long deposition and declined to address whether he was told to lie about Biden's health.
- Committee Chairman James Comer criticized Dr. O'Connor for refusing to be forthcoming and indicated that if subpoenas are ignored, the committee will pursue contempt of Congress charges.
- Biden denied any mental impairment while in office, called claims against him "ridiculous and false," and Comer said the investigation will continue with further interviews and a final report of findings.

Wolf believed in something larger than himself: the right of a free press to protect its sources. He didn’t take the Fifth. He took the heat. Now fast forward to 2025. President Biden’s longtime personal physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, was reportedly subpoenae…
