The White House physician received a check for $200,000 from the president’s brother James Biden, it has been revealed.
The Republican-led House Oversight Committee sought to question White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor Sunday, questioning his independence in light of financial ties to US President Joe Biden’s family.
“After a concerning debate performance by President Biden against former President Donald Trump on June 27, journalists have rushed to report on what Americans have seen plainly for years: the President appears unwell,” begins the letter from committee chair James Comer.
“Americans question President Biden’s ability to lead the country, and the Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating circumstances surrounding your assessment in February of this year that ‘President Biden is a healthy, active, robust 81-year-old-male, who remains fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency.’”
Comer notes reports that the doctor has recommended against a formal cognitive test for the president, questioning whether his business connections to the Biden family impinge on his ability to serve his role as White House physician.

Democrats need to get rid of Joe Biden. They know he’s a dead anchor now. I expect a lot of “insider” information to be leaked this week so Jill Biden will be forced to pull out of the race.
Don’t call him to testify before Kamikaze Joe is the official candidate

You know how this goes.
Letter. Request, pretty please, negotiate- and a year has gone by.

Prior to his current position, Dr. O’Connor was involved with the Biden family’s influence peddling schemes. Recent evidence obtained by the Committee shows Dr. O’Connor’s and James Biden’s involvement with Americore Health, LLC, a company that operated rural hospitals and is currently involved in bankruptcy proceedings. James Biden, the President’s brother, used funds from Americore to pay Joe Biden $200,000 as the company was facing financial distress. James Biden received payments for $400,000 and $200,000, characterized as loans, from the company that were wired directly to his bank account “based upon representations that his last name, ‘Biden,’ could ‘open doors’ and that he could obtain a large investment from the Middle East based on his political connections.” During his transcribed interview, James Biden confirmed Dr. O’Connor provided him counsel in connection with the alleged work he was performing for Americore.

Even I can foresee the future. The republicans will ask real questions. Maybe some real shit will come out.
The Dems will ask fluff questions and tell the doc he is doing a great job.
Then nothing will happen. Nothing will change.
Now to the next issue.

The committee is investigating if Dr. Kevin O’Connor’s involvement in the Biden family’s financial activities influenced his medical assessments of Joe Biden.
In light of recent concerns surrounding Joe Biden’s health, House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) is calling on President Biden’s physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, to testify about his medical assessments of Joe Biden and his private business dealings with the Biden family. Dr. O’Connor has been Biden’s official physician since he took office in January 2021 and is in daily contact with Biden. Biden’s poor health has been particularly scrutinized ever since Special Counsel Robert Hur released a damning evaluation in his report on Biden’s stolen classified documents investigation earlier this month. He described Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory” after hours of questioning.
Dr. Kevin O’Connor was responsible for “evaluating” the 81-year-old. But instead of conducting a truly independent and honest examination, O’Connor decided to gaslight the public in his written letter announcing the results earlier this year. O’Connor concluded, despite Biden’s obvious physical struggles, he is “fit for duty and fully executes all of his responsibilities without any exemptions or accommodations.” The doctor proclaimed that Biden “Feels well, and this year’s physical identifies no new concerns.” O’Connor also said this year’s physical included consultation with several Presidential Specialty Consultants who “concurred” with his findings.

REFERENCE: James Biden associate Keaton Langston pleads guilty to $51M Medicare fraud
By Social Links forSteven Nelson, nypost.com, May 27, 2024
WASHINGTON — A former business associate of James Biden has agreed to plead guilty to conspiring to defraud Medicare of $51 million through a lab-testing company linked to the first brother. Keaton Langston, 39, admitted to using pharmacies, durable medical equipment companies and a laboratory in which he had a financial interest to bill for unnecessary tests and orders, the Justice Department disclosed last week in court filings.
James Biden, 75, has not been accused of criminal wrongdoing and has sought to distance himself from Langston, whose father Joey Langston also was associated with the first brother.

Keaton Langston founded Fountain Health, a lab company, in May 2017 and offered its services to rural hospital operator Americore Health, which later went bankrupt. Records show James Biden was involved with Fountain Health in 2017 before connecting with Americore, which provided him in $600,000 in loans in 2018 as he allegedly vowed to use his political connections to secure foreign investors. James passed $200,000 of the funds to Joe Biden in an alleged loan repayment.
Shortly after the lab firm launched, Joey Langston emailed James Biden and his son Keaton and three others on July 12, 2017, about an upcoming “meeting for Fountain Health partners,” Politico reported in February. “Jim will report to the group the results of his discussions earlier today with a contact at [Blue Cross Blue Shield],” the elder Langston wrote. “There will also be discussion about how to proceed with the Union contacts that have been made by Jim and Keaton, within the last two weeks.”
Paul Fishman, an attorney for James Biden, did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but previously said his client “conducted himself ethically and honorably in all his business dealings.” Keaton’s father Joey Langston was also associated with James Biden.

Keaton Langston agreed in September to repay Americore $240,000 in a civil settlement. James Biden agreed in 2022 to repay Americore $350,000. The Bidens and the Langstons have been linked financially for years. The elder Langston hosted fundraisers for Joe Biden when he was a senator, ProPublica reported. Joey Langston also loaned James Biden $800,000, with most of the installments coming toward the end of the Obama-Biden administration in 2016, and ended up only being repaid $400,000 of the amount, he told House impeachment investigators in February.
James Biden listed his job as ‘brother’ of Joe in ‘flawless’ presentation for Qatar: emails
The wealthy Mississippi lawyer pleaded guilty in 2008 and was sentenced to three years in federal prison for being part of a plot to bribe a judge in an asbestos legal fees dispute. He was seeking to overturn his conviction when he made loans to the then-vice president’s brother. Joey Langston’s alleged co-conspirator in the bribes case, attorney Dickie Scruggs, was involved in a second prosecution for attempting to bribe a different judge. James Biden was wiretapped by the FBI in 2007 as part of its investigation of the second bribery case, the Washington Post reported in December. James was in talks at the time with Scruggs and conspirator Tim Balducci about setting up a law firm that would have employed himself, his nephew Hunter Biden and James’ wife Sara.
Then-Sen. Biden went from an opponent of federal legislation to sanction tobacco companies for lying about the addictiveness of cigarettes to a supporter after Scruggs — who planned a multibillion-dollar lawsuit — paid James Biden’s lobbying firm $100,000 in 1998, the Washington Post reported. “I probably wouldn’t have hired him if he wasn’t the senator’s brother,” Scruggs told the paper. Scruggs also flew Joe Biden to a fundraiser on his private plane, the Washington Post reported.
Joe Biden has consistently claimed he “never” discussed business with his son or brother and said in December and again in March that he “did not” interact with their partners, including foreign associates in countries where he held sway as vice president. Evidence including photos, emails and witness statements indicate that Biden actually interacted with his son and brother’s associates from two Chinese government-linked business ventures and their patrons from Kazakhstan, Mexico, Russia and Ukraine.
James Biden was a partner with first son Hunter in many ventures and allegedly wasn’t always coy about the angle he was pushing to investors. “We’ve got people all around the world who want to invest in Joe Biden,” James allegedly said in the early 2000s as he and Hunter were in the process of acquiring investment bank Paradigm, according to a 2021 book by Politico reporter Ben Schreckinger.
That $200K check, to and from James, keeps making the rounds.
