do you think he has or par parkinson's? know what he has, but he definitely has something similar to parkinson's. there's a huge cover-up going on right now led by joe biden, dr. kevin to conner and the press secretary. dr. o'connor didn't say he doesn't have par kennison's yet, but the press secretary reports he doesn't, and he's not being treated for parkinson's. either they're lying to us, or this is the an effort to deceive the american people, because if he doesn't have parkinson's, he has something very similar. he has another movement disorder that has horrible cognitive consequences as well. the man is ill. he's not well. he's not fit to be our commander in chief. something's wrong with him, and everyone knows it. dr. pitts is exactly right. i don't know what he's got going on, but i know they're trying to hide it, and i know it's bad. stuart: the white house i now, as of late last night, early this morning, the white house now admits that the parkinson's specialist, dr. kevin canard, did, indeed, examine the presid

when you manifest hallmark symptoms, if they did not pick parkinson's on the test -- he has parkinson'ss a fact. a degeneration of brain, show me the mri? he definitely has it. >> laura: show m me the money, show me the mri.at what about the administrationspa explanation why they expert wast at the white house so many timeh itquestion or speak of say thousands of members go to the white house that are treated for health reasons. who are not buying a ring to a military person? >> that would be very odd to see random disorder case a at the white house,gu especially a youg guy and many have disorders but that could be in the military.se spill and probably making s political assumption about this doctor based on what you have heard so far made cheek don't like maybe raging conservative. >> it is just like this guy is not a hard case. my own party of four years --s o this was a wreck in slow motion. they have for years to find 350 americans, one person that could take the place and here we are the day before school trying to do the homework and replace a guy who has neurodivergent degenerati

there is something similar in iran as well, whether he has parkinson's or not .sically , physically and mentally. it is very terrible that we want to leave the country in the hands of this for a few weeks. thank you very much . there is another aspect that i want to talk to you about , which is recently the media. and the characters are getting it regardless of the outcome of the election, as you said, they say that biden's mental retardation and his inabilities are dangerous for america. for example, just a while ago, elon musk claimed that with the current state of america , it is as if it does not have a president at all, and some regardless of the election contests. the possibility of trump's victory will threaten the continuation of biden's presidency due to the domestic and global conditions. do they know what you think? it is definitely the case. in my opinion , what ilan mars said is close to the truth, that we do not know who our president is at all, who is running this country. manages what we know is that this man cannot and is not able to have the nec

. >> laura: in that report said parkinson specialist dr.in kinard visited the white house ate time in eight months with different white house staff listed as contact points. now, knowing this information and white house logs reported on, one would think on this big relaunch day, the white house would have been ready to answer some pretty legitimate questions about dr. kinard and the nature of his visits. but instead to come america witnessed more stonewalling. >> the president, i can tell you, i have seen three times connected to physical that he gets every year that we provide. >> direct question... >> hold on, wait, wait, wait a second... >> in regards to the president specifically... >> hold on a second, no, no, no, wait a minute. ed, please come a little respect here. every time he has a physical, he's had -- that is answering that question. no, it is. you are asking me... but i also said to you, ed meyer also said for security reasons, we cannot share names. i cannot share names of specialist broadly from a dermatologist to neurologist

a parkinson's' specialist came?hy were they living advice in were they talking to staffers how to handle it to the family how to handle it. my mother went through this in her mid to late 80's, laura. it's brutal on the families. >> laura: my dad did, too. >> anybody involved reaches out for help. is that what is going on at the white house. you don't have parkinson's' specialist comes 8 times in one small segment of time earlier this year unless there is a reason for it. those physicians are there to serve the president and his family. anything else is incidental and on the side. they are there for the president. >> laura: yeah, congressman, the "new york times" reported something that we all had understood but it bears repeating that an array of neurologists who have not personally examined mr. biden said they observed symptoms in his public appearances consistent with parkinson's or related disease such as hypo phonic speech. forward flex posture, a shuffling gate, masked face and regular speech pattern. they emph

but listen, the last two physicals stated flat out he does not have parkinson's.st in my pocket that's looking at all these videos and we think this is more consistent with something vascular like not enough blood flow to tiny pockets of the brain, that's why we're talking about an mri he has atrial fibrillation which is a related irregular heartbeat in a major study out of switzerland shows 6% of incidents where you don't get enough blood flow, everything will your, that's why wanted the mri. david: we have one more issue that we want to talk about what the doctor, the neurologist happens to be your wife she's wanted the best neurologist in america i want to switch to another. >> you outed me. a new study out showing the people with a history of alzheimer's on the maternal side of your family have a bigger risk of developing the disease, what can you tell us. >> this is a huge study that came out another drug in its tracks and the monoclonal antibody that gets rid of it reduces how much you have at the brain. let me tell you why that's important this study out of

first of all, you can have parkinson's without the tremor. they have actually reported twice now in yearly physicals that he doesn't have parkinson's. the gait that he has is not a shuffling gait we see with parkinson's but i think they probably were looking at him for this. but you know, not only was that scan not reported anywhere, what about a basic mri? he has atrial fibrillation, irregular heartbeat and leads often to something called vascular dementia. that would be number one of my lists of concerns. an mri can show this. carl bernstein reporting freezing episodes could be due to the white matter on the outside of the brain if there is insufficient blood flow. here is the real point. we don't have any of this information. we don't know. that's what is most disturbing. we have the glowing physicals that he had these huge neurological evaluations and all is well. no mri listed, no cognitive testing listed and looks like that there is a huge cover-up that has gone on. my concern is i'm angry and the american public should be angry at the

we know the doctor came in to test for parkinson's or treat him. the united states, i know there are privacy concerns but it is important we see the medical records here. it is imperative that a cognitive test be performed on the president whether it is his white house doctor or the director of walter reed. we need somebody a cognitive test. he is the commander-in-chief, the american people deserve to know this before the election to make this important decision. stuart: will biden be at the head of the ticket on november 5th. >> i don't think so. to devastating to recover from. it's a concern of people, it came out full force on the debate night. that's the president biden i see. with a different joe biden at the state of the union. i think he was on some sort of medications that got him a little more up if you will. we don't know what is going on and the american people and congress deserve to know the truth about his mental faculties. 's cognitive abilities. stuart: congressman mike mccall, thank you for joining us. still ahead, resident biden h

, but we know his doctor had had met with parkinson's specialist once and then we know that a parkinson's disease expert visited the white house multiple times. >> we don't necessarily know if that was for the president or not. we know they say it wasn't diagnosed me. there's confusion about this, but does it raise questions to you? >> yeah i watched that press conference very closely. and as you say, they were very careful to not suggest that that doctor was visiting because of the president, i guess there are many other people who could potentially being treat, be treated in the white house so we don't know, but i guess i would say this going back to my earlier point, if this person was saying the president, the walter reed doctors are the best some of the best doctors in the world they are there to see the president. i'm glad because there's things that can be done with some of these conditions. and i think early testing and potentially early treatment is so important. it strikes me that there's so much stigma around this. you know, we used to talk about heart disease the same way peop

this as the president's personal physician just released a letter clarifying why a parkinson spe specialist visited the white house. >> carley: and joe biden is blitzing campaign trail and getting testy with reporters. >> -- drop out of the race, how are you feeling? >> all right, ladies. [indiscernible] >> carley: if you thought that was a hot exchange, a record-breaking heat wave hitting the coast. texas has been hammered by beryl. tracking all dangerous weather this morning. >> todd: when i do sports, why are you screaming at me? echo what jill biden just said. this is "fox and friends first," i'm todd piro. >> carley: i'm carley shimkus. all eyes on president biden today as he kicks off the nato summit in washington, d.c. amid growing concerns over his mental f fitness. >> todd: here is brooke singman. >> brooke: his own party have expressed concern following the g-7 summit and the first presidential debate last month.
