The former press secretary of the White House, Karine, Karine, Jean-Pierre, told investigators to the House that she had not seen any change in the jurisdiction of former president Joe Biden in several years, but she admitted that he was “not the same speaker he was when she met him”.

Jean-Pierre was the last in a series of former managers of the White House in Biden to be interviewed by investigators from the Chamber’s supervisory committee for an alleged concealment of the former president’s mental acuity.

She did not speak to journalists on the way to the interview right next to Capitol Hill, and she did not speak after the interview transcribed by almost five hours.

But a familiar source with the interview shared with Fox News Digital that Jean-Pierre told investigators that, while working for Biden at various titles from 2009 to 2025, “she did not see any change in the jurisdiction of President Biden”.

“She admitted that President Biden is not the same speaker he was when she met him,” noted the source. “She doesn’t know why her word has changed and never asked her.”

Jean-Pierre, one of the most prominent personalities in the Biden administration to appear before the Committee, was one of those who publicly defended Biden after his June 2024 debate against the candidate of the time, Donald Trump.

During the debate, Jean-Pierre said that “senior executives said that President Biden had a cold,” said the source.

Shortly after the debate, she told journalists at a press briefing in early July that Biden was “as clear as ever”.

Jean-Pierre told investigators that discussion points had been registered in his filing binder for press points by “various advisers”, but discussion points specifically concerning the health and mental acuity of Biden “were treated exclusively at the higher level”.

She cited the point of discussion of “cheap counterfeits” which, at the time, Jean-Pierre, were online people manipulating Biden videos to mislead the public on his health and cognitive capacity. She told investigators that point in particular “appeared as a subject of discussion in her filing binder, but she does not know specifically who added it.”

She also said that she had never talked to anyone in the White House “personally concerned about the health of President Biden”.

Jean-Pierre began his role as press secretary of the White House in 2022, shortly after the former press secretary of the White House, Jen Psaki, left the post, and she remained until the end of the presidency of Biden in January.

But his relationship with Biden-World became distant after leaving the Democratic Party earlier this year, which was announced in a press release for his next book, “Independent: A Look in Inside A Broken White House, outside the party lines”.

The appearance of Jean-Pierre before the investigators came as chairman of the Chamber’s supervisory committee, James Comer, R-Ky., Said earlier this week that the in progress in his panel on the use by Biden of an autopen arrived at his conclusion.

The objective in particular was whether the senior officials engaged in a concealment of the mental and physical state of Biden at the White House and if executive actions or a litany of pardons were approved via Autopen without the mindfulness of Biden.

Commer said that from the front at the hearing that one of the questions at the top of his mind was whether “these pardons and the (are) legal decrees?”

“I don’t think anyone says that the process that has been used for these cars is the ideal process,” said Commer. “And what we saw with the emails that surfaced last week – even the Merrick Garland Ministry of Justice was very concerned about the way this administration used the autopen.

“When the people of the Ministry of Justice send an email to the people who, according to them, were those who make decisions about the autopen and asked the question by e-mail of the Ministry of Justice:” Does the president even know who they have just forgiven? “I mean, it’s very worrying.”

Fox News Digital contacted Jean-Pierre’s lawyers and Biden’s office, but did not immediately have a response.
