Texas Republican representative Ronny Jackson said that special counsel Robert Hur's report "validates" what many White House observers have noticed, which was President Joe Biden's "serious issues" in terms of his health.
Hur, who had been tasked with investigating Biden's mishandling of classified documents, described the president in a report this week as appearing like a "sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory."
Hur's report immediately became a hot-button topic for US political pundits.
"It validates what most of us have known," Jackson told Fox News Digital. "I've been saying since he was candidate Joe Biden that this man is not cognitively fit to be our president, our commander in chief, and our head of state. I've been saying that over and over."
Jackson previously served as a White House physician during the Obama and Trump administrations, the former of which Biden was vice president. He claimed that he saw a "drastic difference" between his stint as VP and his presidency.
"Go back and look at the videos from whenever he was first vice president and compare them to now. It's not even the same person," he added. "He's got some serious issues. I've been saying that for a long time. Now the report says that - the special counsel report came out and said exactly that. That was a special counsel appointed by the Biden DOJ, and they're saying the same thing that I and many Americans have been saying for a long time now."

Jackson: Biden is Not Fine
Despite the concern over his mental state, Biden made an address earlier this week that his memory was "fine" and defended his re-election campaign, saying that he was the "most qualified person in this country to be president."
The address came just hours after Hur released his report, which did not recommend criminal charges against the president for mishandling classified documents. The records included classified documents about military and foreign policy in Afghanistan, among other records related to national security and foreign policy that Hur said included "sensitive intelligence sources and methods."
Jackson noticed that the president made "all kinds of gaffes" and proved to the world that the report was accurate and that everything speculated by observers in the past three years was "accurate."
"He's cognitively unfit to be our commander-in-chief, and it's going to be a problem for us," he added. "It's a real national security issue. I mean, it's always been a national security issue, but it's a national security issue that just gets worse by the day."
Aside from Biden's memory and mental acuity, Jackson believed that the report validated that the government "has been weaponized for political purposes."
"The Democrats have weaponized the government against Donald Trump. Anybody just has to beat Donald Trump for political purposes - the FBI, the DOJ," he explained.
