A House oversight committee probe into the alleged coverup of the mental decline of former President Joe Biden during his term continues this week with two more former White House aides scheduled to testify.
The Republican-led committee has slated interviews with Biden counselor Steve Ricchetti and former senior adviser Mike Donilon for Wednesday and Thursday. Both have signaled that they will — unlike some past witnesses — voluntarily appear, according to reporting by CNN.
However, it’s not clear yet whether they will break with previous witnesses who have either refused to answer questions or contended that Joe Biden was mentally capable of serving as president of the United States.
Previous high-profile witnesses such as White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor had to be subpoenaed to sit for the panel, and once they appeared they refused to answer questions, asserting their Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination.
As Breitbart News has reported, Anthony Bernal, former senior adviser to first lady Jill Biden, and Annie Tomasini, former special assistant to president Biden, both declined to answer lawmakers’ questions under oath by invoking the Fifth Amendment.
Others have reportedly vouched for Biden’s cognitive abilities in closed door testimony before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, chaired by Rep. James Comer’s (R-KY).
