As we reported, former Biden senior advisor Anita Dunn was in the hot seat behind closed doors to testify before the House Oversight Committee in its probe of Joe Biden’s cognitive decline and the autopen scandal.
She didn’t answer questions from reporters either before or after her grilling, but her opening statement was released. In it, she claimed that while Biden “aged physically,” he was “fully engaged.” You know how much that was worth when she also laughably claimed that he was “appropriately accessible to the press” and even argued that he had more informal “interactions” with reporters than “almost” any other occupant of the Oval Office going back to Ronald Reagan.

She didn’t want to answer whether she was against cognitive tests or was “disloyal” to the Bidens. Hunter Biden infamously jabbed at her during a recent interview, showing all was not right there.

Now, some of what she allegedly said has emerged, and she revealed some interesting things.
Anita Dunn, 67, former senior adviser to the president for communications, told the House Oversight Committee on Thursday that fears over Biden, 82, getting grilled over the then-pending Hur report loomed over his team’s decision.
“She told the committee President Biden’s team decided against doing a Super Bowl interview last year because they thought the main coverage would be about what he did with classified records and not about the president’s policy decisions,” a source close to Dunn told The Post.
“She testified they decided this before the Hur report had come out.”
A second source familiar with Dunn’s transcribed interview said she testified that “Biden’s team decided against doing a Super Bowl interview due to information contained in the Hur report.”
The Hur team allowed the Biden team to see the report on Feb. 3 and 4. The report was released on Feb. 5, and the Super Bowl was on Feb. 11.
“Appropriately accessible” — hardly. That’s a perfect example of the Biden team not wanting to put him out there where he could be nailed and create yet another issue.
Then there was the question of the cognitive test.
During her roughly five-hour interview with the Oversight panel, Dunn recalled how the former president’s team decided against him taking a cognitive test.
“Ms. Dunn revealed that President Biden’s inner circle came to a consensus he should not take a cognitive test, concluding it would offer no political benefit,” the source explained.
Gee, why wouldn’t it have had a political benefit? Could it be that it would have revealed a problem? Wouldn’t it have been beneficial if it had shown no problem?
According to a source, Dunn also allegedly said she was “unaware” of Biden’s stutter until it was “reported by the media in 2020.” Funny then, that people were trying to point to it as the cause of his issues, when she who knew him for years is saying she wasn’t even aware of it. Another Biden team member who was grilled by the Committee blamed Biden’s bad June 2024 debate performance on his stutter.

So the inner circle is deciding on things like the cognitive test or even if he does an interview. But yeah, everything is just fine and he’s sharp as a tack.
