House Republicans push Biden to take cognitive test after Hur report: 'Obvious mental decline'

House Republicans are writing directly to President Biden urging him to take a cognitive test as part of his upcoming regular physical exam, as questions mount about his fitness for office.

"Following the recent report from Special Counsel Robert Hur, we write to express our grave concerns with your current cognitive state and ability to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency, including as Chief Executive, Head of State, and Commander in Chief," the lawmakers wrote. "The President of the United States must demonstrate sound mental abilities, regardless of gender, age, or political party, which you have not."
