Anthony Bernal, a Biden insider, pleads the Fifth amid questions about Biden’s fitness for presidency.
Jill Biden’s infamous “work husband,” Anthony Bernal, just became the latest Biden insider to clam up under oath. On Wednesday, Bernal invoked the Fifth Amendment when dragged before Congress to answer questions about Joe Biden’s obvious cognitive decline, making him the second close Biden aide to lawyer up and refuse to talk.
Bernal followed the lead of Kevin O’Connor, Biden’s longtime personal physician, who also took the Fifth when pressed for answers. And just like O’Connor, Bernal had nothing to say to reporters on his way out the door.
According to Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.), the committee’s legal team only had time to ask a handful of questions before Bernal shut it down. Their questions included the bombshells “Was President Joe Biden fit to exercise the duties of the president?” and “Did any unelected official or family member of President Joe Biden execute the duties of the presidency?”
If there’s nothing to hide, why are Biden’s closest allies acting like they’re guilty of something?
The New York Post has more:
“Did President Joe Biden ever instruct you to lie regarding his health at any time including — but not limited — in your testimony to Congress today?” Oversight chief counsel Jake Greenberg also asked, according to a video released by the committee later Wednesday showing rare footage of the deposition.
