In another case of Washington D.C. being the most ridiculously corrupt place on the planet, Biden's doctor just testified to Congress today.
Well, he was supposed to testify, but he decided to plead the 5th.
Joe Biden's doc, who gave Biden a clean bill of health, said he was totally mentally and physically fit, and decided today he didn't want to answer any questions about his treatment of the former President.
From Axios:
What they're saying: The Republican Chairman of the Committee, James Comer (R-Ky.), said afterward that 'Dr. O'Connor took the Fifth when asked if he was told to lie about President Biden's health and whether he was fit to be President of the United States.'
O'Connor's lawyers told the committee in an opening statement that President Trump's order of a Justice Department investigation 'leaves Dr. O'Connor no choice but to invoke his constitutional rights under the Fifth Amendment.'
They added that 'we want to emphasize that asserting the Fifth Amendment privilege does not imply that Dr. O'Connor has committed any crime.'
Maybe O'Connor is the worst doctor in the world.
Maybe he was involved in an illegal coverup.
Regardless, he didn't want to speak today, which seems a bit strange.
O'Connor initially declined to testify in front of the committee, but Comer subpoenaed him to appear.
Earlier this week, O'Connor's lawyers tried to postpone the hearing, which Comer denied.
Some members of the committee were not sure if O'Connor would appear at all.
Appear, he did. But not for long.
O'Connor is just one of the witnesses in this hearing, with multiple Biden aides set to testify as well.
