Former White House Officials to Testify in House Probe

Former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is set to testify before the House Oversight Committee as part of an ongoing investigation into alleged cover-ups during President Biden’s tenure. This closed-door session is scheduled for September, according to information obtained by Fox News Digital. Jean-Pierre is among four prominent former Biden administration officials slated for interviews with the committee.

High-Profile Figures Under Scrutiny

In addition to Jean-Pierre, the committee will hear from Ian Sams, who served as Special Assistant to the President and Senior Advisor in the White House Counsel’s Office; Andrew Bates, former Deputy Assistant to the President and Senior Deputy Press Secretary; and Jeff Zients, former White House Chief of Staff. These individuals are expected to provide insights into their roles and any knowledge they may have regarding the alleged concealment of President Biden’s mental and physical health status.

Allegations of Concealment and Autopen Use

The investigation, led by Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., focuses on claims that top aides may have hidden signs of President Biden’s health decline. Additionally, there are allegations that executive actions were authorized using an autopen without the president’s full awareness. These claims have been met with resistance from Biden’s allies, who argue against the accusations.

Biden’s Response to Allegations

In a recent interview with The New York Times, President Biden addressed these allegations directly, asserting that he personally made every decision during his presidency. This statement aims to counter claims of diminished capacity or unauthorized actions during his administration.

Ongoing Developments

As this story unfolds, updates are anticipated as more information becomes available from the testimonies and further investigations by the committee.
