As reported earlier, Joe Biden’s White House Chief of Staff, Ron Klain, testified before the House Oversight Committee on Thursday about Biden’s health decline.
According to reports, unlike other Biden officials whom the Oversight Committee deposed, Ron Klain cooperated with Congressional investigators and did not invoke his Fifth Amendment rights.
Klain was talking a lot and answering all of the questions during his deposition.
GOP Rep. Andy Biggs said to reporters: “In my opinion, he’s not trying to avoid answering the questions.”

BREAKING: Biden's WH Chief of Staff Ron Klain has so far been "cooperative" in his testimony in front of Congress, and has NOT pled the fifth
WOW! Klain might be spilling the beans here!
Multiple members have said Klain's answers seem "credible"

Fox News reported later Thursday that Ron Klain told Congressional investigators that Hillary Clinton and Biden’s National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan approached her and sounded the alarm on Biden just months before he dropped out of the 2024 election.
Klain defended Biden’s mental acuity, however, he disclosed that Hillary Clinton and Jake Sullivan said Joe Biden was not “politically viable.”
Fox News reported:
Ex-President Joe Biden’s former chief of staff Ron Klain told House investigators that Hillary Clinton approached him with concerns about the octogenarian leader’s political viability “by 2024,” Fox News Digital has learned.
Klain spoke with staff on the House Oversight Committee for over five hours on Thursday, as Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., continues to probe whether top Biden aides concealed signs of mental decline in the ex-president.
A source familiar with his voluntary interview told Fox News Digital that Klain believed Biden was mentally sharp enough to serve as president, and was not too old to run.
But the ex-secretary of state and former Biden national security adviser Jake Sullivan both “approached Ron Klain stating they believed Joe Biden was not politically viable” months before he dropped his re-election bid in July 2024, the source said.
Sullivan told Klain that Biden “was less effective in 2024 compared to 2022,” the source said.
p
Klain talking a lot means he thinks it is in his favor.
In 2024, sheesh. We’ve been sounding the alarm on the turnip since the ‘90s, maybe the ‘80s.
The guy is around Biden every single day. No one was closer. And he is coming up with this narrative that Hillary Clinton and Jake Sullivan had to tell him in 2024 he was not cognizant. Otherwise, he had no clue
ChiComjoe hasn't been mentally viable for years.
Ha... Ha... Ha... soooo... tell US something we didn’t already know.
Limited modified hangout
In the full video, as they chuck her in the van like a side of beef, if you look closely you can see broken pieces of her exoskeleton falling out of Crusty’s right leg.
Hillary opining on anyone’s fitness to run, puhleeze.
Anyone have the video of the two astonished female reporters (one recovered) as she did her bobblehead on nitrous schtik?
Rob Finnerty played that clip on Newsmax tonight, as part of the story about Hillary’s heavy tranquilizer dosing in a segment with Rudy.
Rob and viewers were shocked to learn that this video is Rudys! His security guy took it as part of his job to keep tabs on Hillary and brought to him right afterwardy. So it’s thanks to America’s Mayor that we can see it.
Hmmm...
What BS!
When I saw Biden in 1999, he was totally mentally unstable then...
If you look & listen to his interviews or speeches going back to the 1970s and 1980s, you will be puzzled as to how he survived...
I haven’t seen the head bobbing video in years.
The expression on the one reporter’s face always made Tom Cullen chuckle, laws yes.
M-O-O-N, that spells adrenochrome
It’s hard to even imagine the kind of shape she must be in ten years later.
LOL! Funniest description of her stupor I’ve ever heard.
Exoskeleton…… LOLOL!!!!
You mean ‘Illary made her move to take his spot… and failed to, checks notes, Kamala(?). Seriously? 😒
Being around Biden everyday would mean one may not notice the subtle and small changes Biden went through day to day. Someone who did not see Biden for a month or months would see the decline from the last time they saw Biden.

The turning point for me...I sat and watched the 2019 debates (at least 2 with Joe) and felt he was typical average Joe...no problems.
Around Thanksgiving...he goes off and does nothing much for about 6 weeks. Then in early January...he returns to center-stage. Immediately, there’s some problem with his memory and speech. I thought it was medication or some stroke. Over the next three months...it doesn’t improve...it just gets worse.
By mid-summer, I thought he’d take himself out. But no...he stays in.
It would be interesting to ask...in this 6-week period of 2019, what was his schedule, and did he have a stroke?
We all knew Biden wasn’t right in 2020. Basement Joe needed lids back then. It was smoothed over by the media. The claim that it was my recent is false.
2024 my ass!!
