Here’s What the President’s Doctor Had to Say About Biden’s Health

After missed timelines and weeks of unexplained delays, 80-year-old President Joe Biden finally underwent his annual physical at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Thursday morning. . .

[E]arlier in 2023, the White House was — without giving a reason — delaying President Biden’s annual physical. Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre had told the press corps that Biden would undergo his yearly checkup in January, but that didn’t happen. She insisted the White House was handling Biden’s health in a “very transparent way,” even though Biden’s doctor was not made available to answer reporters’ questions when he had COVID in 2022 and his physical was put off despite Biden having plenty of time to spend long weekends in Delaware.

Following Biden’s physical, the president’s doctor — Kevin O’Connor — sent Karine Jean-Pierre a five-page memo shared with reporters on Thursday evening detailing Biden’s health and listing off the conditions for which the president is being treated.

O’Connor reported that Biden “does not use any tobacco products, does not drink alcohol, and he continues to work out at least five days per week.” The president measured 72 inches tall and weighed 178 pounds for a BMI of 24.1, according to his doctor. His blood pressure was 128/76, his pulse was 69, and his body temperature was 98.6 degrees.

The president’s doctor stated that Biden’s “extremities have a full range of motion” and his “strength and reflexes are all normal and symmetrical.” (Read more from “Here’s What the President’s Doctor Had to Say About Biden’s Health” HERE)

Court Docs: James Biden Secretly Negotiated $140M Deal With Saudis Due to Relationship With Joe Biden

James Biden secretly negotiated a $140 million settlement deal in 2012 between a U.S. company and the Saudi Arabian government due to his relationship with then-Vice President Joe Biden, court documents reveal.

The revelation represents one more instance of the Biden family business peddling influence while President Joe Biden was an elected official. House Oversight Committee James Comer (R-KY) reportedly already has copies of the court documents and is investigating the scandal as a part of his probe into the Biden family for nine violations, including wire fraud, tax evasion, and money laundering.

In 2011, upon the Saudi’s refusal to pay $140 million to a U.S. construction company Hill International, James Biden was brought in to negotiate the settlement deal between the U.S. company and the Saudi government because the Saudis “would not dare stiff the brother of the Vice-President who would be instrumental to the deal,” affidavits reported by the Daily Mail show.

Notably, James Biden had a prior business relationship with the U.S. company’s subsidiary as executive vice president with a minority stake.

Former U.S. Treasury official Thomas Sullivan, who was working to settle the deal as a private consultant, twice stated in an affidavit that James Biden was hired to negotiate with the Saudis “because of his position and relationship” with then-Vice President Biden. The business negotiation ultimately resulted in a $132 million settlement, court documents reveal.

Jill Biden Earns Fitting New Nickname After Eagles Lose Super Bowl

Though both President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden are said to be big fans of Philadelphia sports teams, it is usually only the Mrs. we see front and center attending home games.

She went to at least two Philadelphia Eagles games this season, including when the Eagles played (and defeated) Dallas in October, where we saw her get mercilessly booed by Eagles fans in the midst of her her stint as “honorary captain” for the coin toss:

. . .So naturally, Mrs. Biden was going to weigh in with her support for the Eagles on Super Bowl Sunday, tweeting this video of her wearing an Eagles jersey with the name “Biden” and the number “46”:

The Eagles going down in defeat had some only half-jokingly blaming Jill Biden for what happened, calling it what’s become known as the “Jill Biden curse”:

Biden Administration Issues New Security Warning About Russia

As questions grow about U.S. national security here at home, the Biden administration is warning Americans of deteriorating conditions in Russia with a new travel advisory issued Sunday in which the State Department did not mince words about the dangers facing U.S. citizens at the hand of Putin’s government.

Citing “unpredictable consequences of the unprovoked full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russian military forces, the potential for harassment and the singling out of U.S. citizens for detention by Russian government security officials, the arbitrary enforcement of local law, limited flights into and out of Russia, the Embassy’s limited ability to assist U.S. citizens in Russia, and the possibility of terrorism,” the U.S. Mission Russia warned Americans to cancel any plans to travel to the country.

What’s more, the State Department warning says that U.S. citizens already residing or traveling in Russia “should depart immediately” and “exercise increased caution due to the risk of wrongful intentions.” If Americans encounter any issues in Russia, the Biden administration warns it’s unlikely to be able to do anything, especially for Americans who aren’t near the main U.S. outpost in Moscow:

The U.S. government’s ability to provide routine or emergency services to U.S. citizens in Russia is severely limited, particularly in areas far from the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, due to Russian government limitations on travel for embassy personnel and staffing, and the ongoing suspension of operations, including consular services, at U.S. consulates.

Biden’s Attorneys Transferred Cache of Docs From Boston Law Office to National Archives, Emails Show

The National Archives asked President Biden’s attorneys to turn over a previously unknown stash of documents transferred to a Boston law office after classified documents were discovered at Mr. Biden’s Washington think tank in November.

The new detail was revealed amid 74 pages of emails between the National Archives and the president’s personal attorneys released in response to a Freedom of Information Act request on Friday.

“Please ensure that the boxes in your office in Boston remain secure in a locked space and are not accessed by anyone,” National Archives General Counsel Gary Stern wrote to Mr. Biden’s attorneys Patrick Moore and Bob Bauer.

The email was dated Nov. 7, five days after Mr. Biden’s lawyers say they first discovered the stash of classified documents.

Mr. Moore reportedly transferred a set of personal documents from the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement to his law office in Boston before classified documents were discovered.

Biden Makes Eyebrow-Raising Admission About Documents Seized From His Home — Then Blames Staffers (VIDEO)

President Joe Biden admitted Wednesday that at least one document seized by federal investigators from his private residence in Wilmington, Delaware, is nearly 50 years old.

At the end of an interview with Biden, PBS anchor Judy Woodruff asked the president why his condemnation of former President Donald Trump for retaining classified documents — Biden called it “totally irresponsible” — does not also apply to him.

“What I was talking about was what was laid out,” Biden said, referring to the infamous picture the Justice Department included in court documents showing classified documents on the floor of Mar-a-Lago.

But ignoring the fact that some of the documents found at his former Washington office reportedly contained highly classified intelligence markings, Biden then tried to defend himself by noting that he “voluntarily” allowed federal agents to search his home.

“In the best of my knowledge, the kinds of things they picked up were things that from 1974 and stray papers,” Biden admitted. “There may be something else, I don’t know.”

Sarah Huckabee Sanders: Biden’s Social Agenda Gives Americans Choice ‘Between Normal and Crazy’

For much of Joe Biden’s first two years as president he’s made his priorities to push abortion and transgenderism onto Americans.

He emphasized that in his State of the Union on Tuesday. . .

“Biden called on Congress ‘to restore the soul of this nation’ by making abortion legal nationwide until birth and passing a bill that would force religious employers to hire people who identify as transgender,” the Stand report explained.

“His administration’s focus on pushing polarizing social issues clashes with Republicans’ more mainstream views of abortion and gender identity, a contrast that Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) said gives Americans a clear choice ‘between normal or crazy.'” . . .

Mary Beth Waddell, of the Family Research Council, said it would “eradicate freedom of thought, conscience, and belief — resulting in the penalization of anyone who disagrees with the ideologies.” (Read more from “Sarah Huckabee Sanders: Biden’s Social Agenda Gives Americans Choice ‘Between Normal and Crazy'” HERE)

Oversight Committee Demands Biden Family Members Deliver Bank Docs, Leases, Classified Materials

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) on Thursday issued a letter demanding Biden family members deliver troves of documents and communications relevant to his probe into the Biden family for wire fraud, tax evasion, and money laundering, along with six other potential violations.

The letters, sent to Hunter and James Biden, along with the family’s business partner Eric Schwerin, requested a host of both classified and unclassified documents, records, and communications between business associates and family members, including President Joe Biden.

“Hunter Biden, James Biden, and Eric Schwerin are key witnesses in our investigation of Joe Biden’s involvement in his family’s international and domestic business schemes,” Comer wrote in a statement. “Evidence obtained in our investigation reveals the Biden family business model is built on Joe Biden’s political career and connections.”

Comer noted the Biden family business model included peddling influence to foreign adversaries while Joe Biden was a U.S. official, which he designated as a national security threat.

Americans Didn’t Tune In for State of the Union Address

Tuesday’s State of the Union address sure has gotten attention for the ways in which some Republican members reacted to President Joe Biden’s lies, but among the chatter, it’s worth wondering if people actually tuned in for the address?

Not really, it turns out, given that just 27.3 million people watched, according to data from Nielsen across 16 networks. That’s a decline of 29 percent, as is mentioned in Deadline’s headline. The Hill mentioned in their headline that the ratings took “a nosedive.”

Those ratings look even worse when compared to previous years, and the lack of viewers in the demographics that Biden needs support from. As Deadline mentioned:

That figure is the lowest audience for a SOTU in at least 30 years, according to Nielsen records. Biden’s 2021 speech to a joint session of Congress drew 26.9 million, but that event, coming just a couple months into his presidency, was not an official State of the Union speech.

The Nielsen figures were measurements of 16 TV networks. Last year, 38.2 million watched across 16 networks.

‘Middle Finger to Biden’: Saudis Boost U.S. Citizen’s Sentence to 19 Years Over Tweets After Wh Condemns Punishment

A Saudi appeals court has increased the prison sentence of US citizen Saad Almadi for tweets from 16 years to 19 years in a “middle finger” to President Biden, his son tells The Post.

The State Department told Ibrahim Almadi about the revised Saudi penalty Wednesday — months after the White House publicly condemned his father’s treatment.

“It’s not a slap in the face, it’s a middle finger,” Ibrahim told The Post, noting that his septuagenarian father has “lost more than 80 pounds” since his arrest in November 2021 on charges linked to more than a dozen tweets mildly critical of the Saudi government.

“When the US asked for an appeal, they said, ‘Here you go, 19 years!’” his son exclaimed.

Saad Almadi’s case has come up repeatedly at White House briefings — though Biden has not personally commented on it. (Read more from “‘Middle Finger to Biden’: Saudis Boost U.S. Citizen’s Sentence to 19 Years Over Tweets After Wh Condemns Punishment” HERE)
