Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson declared President Joe Biden “unfit” for office following a press conference in which Biden angrily scolded a special counsel for questioning his cognitive abilities.
Johnson posted, “The President’s press conference this evening further confirmed on live television what the Special Counsel report outlined. He is not fit to be President.”

The special counsel’s report outlined concerns about Biden’s cognitive decline, including memory issues, and recommended against prosecution due to his perceived mental state.
Biden’s emotional response during the press conference included a strong reaction to the report’s mention of his difficulty remembering when his son Beau died.
“There’s even reference that I don’t remember when my son died. How in the hell dare he raise that. Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself: ‘wasn’t any of their damn business’.”
The incident further fueled criticism of Biden’s fitness for the presidency.
