Jill Biden’s ‘work husband’ Anthony Bernal hit with subpoena after dodging request for testimony on ex-prez’s cognitive decline
WASHINGTON — House Republicans subpoenaed a top aide to former President Joe Biden to testify about whether there was an “effort to hide” the 46th commander-in-chief’s cognitive decline while he was in office.
Anthony Bernal, a former senior aide to Biden and “work husband” to first lady Jill Biden, had informed the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday that he wouldn’t be sitting for a transcribed interview about the alleged cover-up.

Bernal had been slated to appear on Thursday but pulled out after the Trump White House counsel’s office informed former Domestic Policy Council director Neera Tanden, who gave evidence Tuesday, that she wouldn’t be granted executive privilege.
The power keeps White House and presidential communications confidential, but can only be granted by the current administration.
The subpoena demands that Bernal appear for a deposition on July 16.
