Friday, November 19, 2021 –US President Joe Biden today temporarily transferred powers to his able vice Kamala Harris for medical reasons.
In media reports seen by Homenews.co.ke, Biden was scheduled to undergo Anesthesia for routine Colonoscopy. This is according to White House Secretary Jen Psaki.
“The Vice President will work from her office in the West Wing during this time,” Psaki said in a statement.
The president arrived at Walter Reed Medical Center on Friday November 19 morning for the exercise which he has to undergo every year – This makes his first physical review while in office as the oldest first term president of the US.
During such an important sedation exercise, it is required by law that his Vice takes over office just like it has happened before; during his predecessors’ time – Donald Trump and George Bush.
In a written attack to Trump’s regime, former President Trump ex-press Secretary Stephanie Grisham claimed that his boss underwent Colonoscopy in a tightly secured environment when he quietly visited Walter Reed facility in 2019. The idea was to make sure he avoids handing over power to his Vice Mike Pence whom he didn’t have trust in at some point.
“Trump’s hospital visit, which stirred weeks-long speculation about his health was a “very common procedure,” during which “a patient is put under,” she wrote in her book titled I’ll Take your Questions Now.
She also said Bush too had a similar exercise during his tenure when his vice Dick Cheney had to step in for a short time.
