Clinton reportedly told senior Democrats, including Biden&#8217;s chief of staff Ron Klain, that Biden was &#8220;not politically viable&#8221; due to his age and cognitive decline. Despite these private cautions, the Democratic Party and mainstream media publicly portrayed Biden as sharp and capable. Klain admitted in a House Oversight Committee interview that Biden showed signs of forgetfulness and decreased energy. The inquiry also focuses on Biden&#8217;s White House physician, Dr. Kevin O&#8217;Connor, who resisted answering lawmakers&#8217; questions and invoked the fifth Amendment multiple times. Critics argue that Clinton, Klain, and others knowingly concealed Biden&#8217;s health issues to protect political interests, potentially endangering the public and undermining trust. The article calls for accountability and emphasizes the importance of a thorough and obvious investigation into Biden&#8217;s mental fitness during his presidency.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Hillary Clinton &mdash;

Some Republicans &mdash; including President Donald Trump &mdash; have expressed concern that officials may have abused their authority while the now-former president was incapacitated.<\/p>\n<p>They may have even discharged the duties of the Oval Office without Biden&rsquo;s knowledge, specifically with regard to pardons, clemency orders, and other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-democrats-vote-to-adopt-3-5t-budget-resolution-move-forward-with-big-spending-agenda\/\" title=\"House Democrats vote to adopt .5T budget resolution, move forward with big spending ...nda\">major agenda items<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Klain admitted to committee staffers that he had his own concerns about Biden, saying that the former president was &ldquo;less energetic and more forgetful,&rdquo; CNN reported. He also highlighted how Biden would frequently get names &mdash; and proper nouns &mdash; mixed up.<\/p>\n<p>Too little, too late. Klain may sound truthful now, but he was complicit in propping up a man who was experiencing a massive mental decline. How can the American people believe anything he says?<\/p>\n<p>It was clear to anyone with eyes &mdash; even before his disastrous 2024 debate performance against Trump &mdash; that something was wrong with Biden.<\/p>\n<p>His cancer announcement only confirmed what everyone already knew. The man was sick.<\/p>\n<p>He had fallen several times in public, forgotten who people were, spoke gibberish at random moments, tried to shake hands with pure air, and appeared lethargic while on camera.<\/p>\n<p>It is for these very reasons that the committee is also after Biden White House Physician Dr. Kevin O&rsquo;Connor.<\/p>\n<p>O&rsquo;Connor was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/bidens-former-doctor-accused-trying-stonewall-investigation-using-delay-tactic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accused<\/a> of stonewalling Republican lawmakers by trying to cloak himself in doctor-patient confidentiality when they first sought out his testimony.<\/p>\n<p>He attempted to delay his appearance due to a disagreement about the scope of the questions.<\/p>\n<p>When he finally agreed to sit for an interview, he asserted his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination a total of 14 times in only 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>According to House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, a Republican from Kentucky, O&rsquo;Connor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/unprecedented-took-2-questions-collapse-biden-docs-defense-leaving-clinging-5th-amendment-rights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">refused to answer<\/a> simple questions like &ldquo;Were you ever told to lie about the president&rsquo;s health?&rdquo; and &ldquo;Was President Biden unfit to execute his duties?&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>It does not matter what Clinton said in the past, or what Klain is saying now. What matters is what they knew back then. Their words of warning would have held weight and benefited the public. Instead, they clammed up to protect their proximity to power.<\/p>\n<p>It is despicable behavior not worthy of leadership. If any criminal charges can be brought against these conspirators who apparently knew Biden was ill, but covered it up anyway, they should be indicted without delay.<\/p>\n<p>Let us hope this investigation bears fruit and is not just another display of political theater that could easily be forgotten in a matter of months if not handled correctly.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position: relative;\">\n<div class=\"ff-fancy-header-container\"> \t\t\t \t<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-submit-correction inner-content\">\n<div class=\"correction-form\">\n<form style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"sc-name-field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* Name<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc--field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* <\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<label>* Message<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t<textarea name=\"message\" required><\/textarea> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"required-message\" style=\"display: none; padding-bottom: 15px;\">* All fields are required.<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault(); firefly_sc();\"> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"firefly-sc-confirm\" style=\"display: none;\">Success!<\/div>\n<\/p><\/form>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> \t\t<script> \t\t\tfunction firefly_sc() { \t\t\t\tif( typeof window.captchaPublicKey==typeof undefined ){ \t\t\t\t\tconsole.error('window.captchaPublicKey is not defined'); \t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\tgrecaptcha.execute( window.captchaPublicKey, { action: 'submit_correction' } ).then( function( token ) { \t\t\t\t\tvar opts={ \t\t\t\t\t\taction:    'firefly_sc_submit', \t\t\t\t\t\tname:      document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"name\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\t:     document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tmessage:   document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"message\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tpost_id:   firefly_post_id, \t\t\t\t\t\tcap_token: token \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\tvar inputs=[ 'name', '', 'message' ];  \t\t\t\t\tfor( var i=0; i <inputs.length; i++ ) if( !
