A Secret Service whistleblower claims that former President Joe Biden was so out of it at the White House that he would “get lost in his closet,” Sen. Josh Hawley revealed Friday.
The stunning level of disorientation is an example of why the Democratic cover-up of Biden’s mental decline is one of the biggest scandals in presidential history, Hawley argued.
“This Secret Service whistleblower actually was assigned to Biden,” the Missouri Republican told Fox News host Sean Hannity.
“He told me that Biden used to get lost in his closet in the mornings at the White House,” Hawley claimed, noting that he spoke to numerous Secret Service agents while investigating the assassination attempts against President Trump.
“I mean, the guy literally stumbling around in the White House residence couldn’t find his way out of his own closet,” Hawley continued. “The president of the United States.
“This is outrageous. We were lied to.”
Hawley’s disclosure of the Secret Service whistleblower’s claim comes amid multiple congressional investigations into the 82-year-old ex-president’s cognitive abilities while in office — and the role his staff played in running the country.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) is probing the possible use of an autopen by Biden’s subordinates to sign off on White House directives and pardons without the president’s knowledge.
Comer has also requested testimony from Dr. Kevin O’Connor, the White House physician during the Biden administration, as part of the probe.
The oversight panel chairman has suggested that O’Connor was not being truthful about Biden’s well-being in public reports and statements after the president’s annual check-ups.
Earlier this month, Biden revealed that he is battling an aggressive form of prostate cancer, leading to speculation that the former president had been suffering from the ailment — and that the diagnosis was kept under wraps — while he was in office.
Meanwhile, Sens. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.) and John Cornyn (R-Texas) are planning to hold a hearing on Biden’s mental decline next month.
“This is about a constitutional crisis, where we basically have a mentally incompetent president who’s not in charge,” Cornyn said during an appearance on Fox News’ “The Will Cain Show” Thursday.
“The question is: Who is in charge? Whose finger is on the nuclear button or has the nuclear codes? Who can declare war? How do we defend the nation when we have basically an absent president? And those are constitutional issues we need to address and correct,” Cornyn argued.
Hawley fumed Friday that while “American people could see” Biden’s decline, they were “systematically lied to by the Biden White House [and] by the media.”
“Now we’ve got to get the facts,” he continued, calling the scandal “a huge stain” on the country.
“It’s amazing we survived it, to be honest with you.”
