Jill Biden’s ‘work husband’ Anthony Bernal pleaded the Fifth Amendment and refused to answer a single question on Joe Biden’s health decline on Wednesday.
Last month Anthony Bernal defied congress and bailed on his testimony on Joe Biden’s cognitive decline so House Oversight Chairman Comer promptly issued a subpoena to compel testimony.
Bernal did not answer any questions before heading into his deposition.

On Wednesday Chairman James Comer fumed after Anthony Bernal invoked his Fifth Amendment rights during his congressional deposition.
“This week new reporting confirms President Biden’s aides took unauthorized executive actions during his presidency amid his cognitive decline. It’s no surprise that Anthony Bernal is pleading the Fifth Amendment to shield himself from criminal liability. During his deposition today, Mr. Bernal pleaded the Fifth when asked if any unelected official or family members executed the duties of the President and if Joe Biden ever instructed him to lie about his health. This is a historic scandal and Americans demand transparency and accountability. We will continue to pursue the truth on their behalf and examine options to get the answers we need,” Comer said.

Anthony Bernal was Jill Biden’s ‘work husband’ and wielded tremendous power.
Project Veritas recently released undercover video of DNC Vice Chair David Hogg admitting Anthony Bernal, was running the Biden White House.
“How corrupt is the DNC if so many knew or few people knew about Biden?” a Project Veritas undercover reporter asked Hogg.
Hogg replied, “The bigger issue was like the inner circle that was around Biden… like Jill Biden’s Chief of Staff [Anthony Bernal] had an enormous amount of power.”
Deterrian Jones, former White House Office of Digital Strategy chimed in, “That was an open secret. I would avoid him. He was scary.”
