The White House on Friday said President Biden had a “verbal check-in” with his doctor about the cold he had during the debate, after telling reporters earlier in the week that he did not get a medical exam — and had not had once since his yearly physical in February. Early into the president’s debate performance, during which he spoke in a soft and raspy voice and often struggled to complete sentences, the White House at the time said Biden had a cold. Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre had been asked earlier this week if Biden had seen his doctor about...

President Biden told Democratic governors that he saw a doctor after his shaky debate performance last week and was given a clean bill of health.

President Biden likely suffers from a “cognitive disease” and should not only drop out of the presidential race but resign immediately, according to the former White House physician and current Republican Congressman who served former Presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump. “This is a national security issue,” Texas Rep. Ronny Jackson told The Post after Biden’s disastrous debate performance. “As an American, I think he needs to step down and he needs to be immediately removed from office.” Before entering politics, Jackson served as Obama’s personal physician between 2013 and 2016. He served as Trump’s between 2016 and 2018. Trump...

individuals who have undergone gender-transition surgeries face a significantly higher risk of suicide, self-harm and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) compared to those who have not had such surgeries. Researchers from the University of Texas Medical Branch conducted the study, discovering that the rates of these adverse effects were over 12 times higher in individuals who had gender-transition surgeries compared to those without any history of such procedures. The study analyzed data from nearly 16 million adult patients in the U.S., aged 18 to 60, who visited emergency rooms between 2003 and 2023. This information was extracted from a broader database...

The Left’s march through Western institutions in the forms of DEI/CRT, “social justice”, and all manner of woo-woo wokeism has consequences. Let’s take schools of medicine for $200, Alex. One of the premier medical schools, UCLA’s David Geffen School of Medicine, is failing. Up to half of UCLA medical students now fail basic tests of medical competence. Whistleblowers say affirmative action, illegal in California since 1996, is to blame. ... “One professor said that a student in the operating room could not identify a major artery when asked, then berated the professor for putting her on the spot. Another said...

A Muslim emergency medicine physician, Dr. Thaer Ahmad, said he walked out of a meeting with President Joe Biden on Wednesday because of disagreements over the Hamas-Israel war. The symbolic action underscores the deepening division within the Democrats’ intersectional coalition over the Palestinian conflict. Only 47 percent of Democrats approve of Biden’s handling of the Hamas-Israel war, a recent Gallup poll found, down 13 points since October, underscoring a major problem for Biden’s reelection chances. Ahmad turned his back on Biden out of respect for his fellow Palestinians, he told NPR. He said the White House needs to do more...

Dr Anthony Fauci evaded more than 100 questions about Covid, the lab leak theory and his ties to Wuhan during a landmark Congressional hearing Monday. House Republicans who quizzed the ex-White House advisor said he 'played semantics' to avoid conceding that he funded dangerous research in China that is feared to have started the pandemic. Dr Fauci, 82, also admitted that he signed off on millions of dollars worth of grants without reviewing the proposals - and appeared to admit his agency had little oversight of the foreign labs it bankrolled. The all-day probe on Monday will be followed by...
