White House yet to release visitor logs for month Biden dropped out of race

The White House has yet to release its visitor logs for the month of July, raising concerns about who may have been advising President Biden before he made the decision to drop out of the re-election race. Typically, visitor records are released at the beginning of each month, but as of mid-November, the White House is well past its usual timeline for releasing guest records.

The most recent logs were released on October 4 and covered visits up until June 26. This delay in releasing the July logs has sparked speculation about who may have been in close contact with the president during a critical period.

Dr. Kevin Cannard, a top Parkinson’s disease expert, was known to have made several visits to the White House in 2024, raising concerns about President Biden’s health and physical fitness. After a lackluster debate performance on June 27, pressure mounted for Biden to resign, but he did not drop out of the race until July 21. The visitor logs for July could shed light on who was influencing the president during this pivotal time.

Critics, such as Caitlin Sutherland from Americans for Public Trust, have called out the Biden administration for failing to deliver on its promise of transparency. Sutherland expressed frustration over the lack of disclosure, stating that the American people are being kept in the dark about who had access to the president during a tumultuous period.

In response to these criticisms, White House representative Andrew Bates labeled Americans for Public Trust as a “dark money group” and highlighted that the Trump administration did not release any visitor records during his term. Bates emphasized that the Biden administration remains committed to transparency and will be releasing the visitor logs in the near future.

As of now, it remains unclear when the White House plans to release the July visitor records and what may have caused the delay. Despite the criticism and speculation, the administration maintains that it leads the most transparent government in American history.

In conclusion, the delay in releasing the July visitor logs has sparked questions about transparency and accountability within the Biden administration. As the public awaits the release of these records, the focus remains on who may have been influencing President Biden during a critical period in his presidency.
