A Tennessee Republican's 'No Juicing Joe' bill would require the president to alert Congress whenever he's taking drugs that could alter his alertness, judgment or mood.
FIRST ON FOX: The White House would have to notify Congress when the president takes a drug that could alter his alertness, judgment, or mood under a bill being proposed Thursday by a Tennesse Republican. 'Joe Biden’s embarrassing outbursts of anger and incomprehensible speeches mirror the incalculable damage his policies have had on our nation,' Rep. Andy Ogles told Fox News Digital on Thursday.
The President, whose office is the most powerful on earth, must be accountable to the people, and it's Congress' duty to ensure accountability,' Ogles said. Presidents past have grappled with health issues that sometimes involve treatments with drugs affecting their behavior, Ogles noted, such as President John F. Kennedy's treatment by Doctor Max Jacobson, known as 'Doctor Feelgood,' and Woodrow Wilson's post-stroke incapacitation which led to the 21st Amendment.
Last week, the Republican National Committee research division posted several videos on X that appeared to show President Biden in 'a perpetual state of confusion' following his speech in Normandy on Thursday to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
Most of the people interviewed by the outlet who were critical of Biden's performance were Republicans, although some Democrats said the president showed his age in several exchanges. These interviewees participated in meetings with Biden or were briefed on them contemporaneously, including administration officials and other Democrats who did not express concerns about how the president handled the meetings.
White House officials, however, dismissed many of the accounts from people who have met with the president or been briefed on those meetings, saying such criticisms were motivated by partisan politics. Fox News Digital's Landon Mion contributed to this report.
