Dr. Kevin O’Connor, former President Joe Biden’s personal physician, is about to find himself in the hot seat. Rep. James Comer (R-KY), who serves as the chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, has subpoenaed O’Connor to give testimony before the committee over allegations he participated in the cover-up of Biden’s cognitive decline.
O’Connor has been compelled to appear before a deposition that is currently scheduled for June 27. The testimony is part of an investigation to find out definitively if the former president’s obvious cognitive decline was purposefully covered up and whether unauthorized use of the autopen for pardons and executive actions took place.
“No autopen was used in the signing of this subpoena,” Comer joked on X, making an obvious reference to Biden’s use of the autopen.
Originally, Comer had asked O’Connor to volunteer to come in for a transcribed interview. He said no.

The Biden White House had previously blocked O’Connor from making an appearance in a separate interview to talk about the former president’s medical assessments and “involvement in the Biden family’s influence peddling racket,” a news release from the committee said.
“Among other subjects, the Committee expressed its interest in whether your financial relationship with the Biden family affected your assessment of former President Biden’s physical and mental fitness to fulfill his duties as President,” the subpoena goes on to say. “Given your connections with the Biden family, the Committee sought to understand if you contributed to an effort to hide former President Biden’s fitness to serve from the American people.”
While Biden was serving as the president, his mental acuity was a constant concern, despite reassurances from those close to him that he was fine. The scrutiny got even worse after he left office and announced a prostate cancer diagnosis. During his administration, Biden received one clean bill of health after another from O’Connor, Fox News reported.
O’Connor’s relationship with Biden goes back to 2009. That’s when he was first put in charge of the former president’s health. The two have grown close since that time.
During Biden’s time in the White House, O’Connor sought to stay out of the limelight. However, during spring 2024, people who identified as both Republicans and Democrats began to speculate that something was wrong with Biden.
Pundits wanted O’Connor to come out and clear the air, making a direct statement about Biden’s health. That never materialized.
We need real answers on what happened during Biden’s term. Were there people who were using autopen and exercising the power of the president to push policies into place?
O’Connor could be instrumental in retrieving that kind of information and data. Can’t wait for his testimony.
