Former President Joe Biden got lost in his own closet at the White House, a Secret Service whistleblower claimed to MAGA Senator Josh Hawley. 

The Missouri Republican shared the intel with Fox News host Sean Hannity Friday, adding to the ongoing speculation that Biden’s administration worked to cover-up his declining mental state.

‘He [the Secret Service member] told me that Biden used to get lost in his closet in the mornings at the White House,’ Hawley explained, adding that his source was assigned to Biden while he was the president.

‘I mean, the guy literally stumbling around in the White House residence couldn’t find his way out of his own closet. The president of the United States. I mean, this is outrageous. We were lied to.’ 

Hawley said the alarming claims were made to him while he was investigating the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump during his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. 

He went on to criticize the ongoing scandal that the Biden administration worked to cover-up his cognitive decline, specifically with the use of an autopen – a device that automatically replicates a person’s signature.

‘We need to find out who actually signed off, so to speak, on all those autopen signatures and all of those pardons and all of those clemencies,’ Hawley said, adding that it amounts to ‘one of the worst constitutional crises of our country’s history.’ 

DailyMail.com contacted Biden’s team for comment.

The senator’s comments come just after Biden announced he was diagnosed with Stage 4 prostate cancer, and amid the mounting backlash of CNN anchor Jake Tapper’s new book that claims to blow the lid off of the White House campaign that hid Biden’s health decline from the American people. 

His office revealed his frightening diagnosis on May 18, adding that it is an ‘aggressive form’ of prostate cancer. 

The cancer has metastasized and spread to his bones, a statement on the 82-year-old’s diagnosis revealed. 

The announcement came just one week after reports revealed that a ‘small nodule’ was found on Biden’s prostate that needed ‘further evaluation.’

Just as his health battle was revealed, Tapper’s new book, ‘Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,’ co-authored with Axios’ Alex Thompson, hit the shelves. 

Early reviews of the book, which was released May 20, were quickly overshadowed by allegations that Tapper himself was part of the cover up and is now seemingly trying to rewrite history. 

People have gone on to label Tapper a fraud  and ‘phony’ over his self-righteous rants about the former president’s health cover-up, claiming that his role as an anchor at a left-leaning network helped conceal the alleged secret. 

‘He was and still is down for the cause. We are not fooled or amused,’ a user wrote.

‘No retractions, no apologies, and no consequences for those who pushed a false narrative for years,’ another stated.

Someone else commented: ‘Bullsh**, he’s lying. He knew all along that it was bullsh** and still carried the democrat party’s water.’ 

While facing a slew of backlash for his new book, Tapper recently sat down with Thompson on Stephen A. Smith’s show Wednesday to address the heat he’s been facing. 

Smith specifically asked the pair what they think about people calling the book a ‘money grab,’ leading Tapper to say that ‘very few people write books to make money.’ 

‘No, our only agenda was to find out what happened. Our only agenda was to write this book,’ Tapper replied. 

‘In terms of the left it’s a money grab, I mean that’s not the case. It’s not – this is, I don’t want to get into where my money comes from. You know, CNN is my main job and that’s where my main source of income, by far… Very few people write books to make money,’ he babbled on. 

‘You write a book because you want to say something. You want to have a legacy, you want to uncover something, you have a message you want to get out there,’ Tapper stated, adding ‘I don’t think people write books about Joe Biden to make money’ as Thompson smiled. 

‘That’s a good point,’ Smith chimed in. 

The claims come on the heels of mounting speculation over CNN anchor Jake Tapper’s new book that claims to blow the lid off of the White House campaign that hid Biden’s health decline from the American people

On Tuesday, President Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law Laura Trump revealed that Tapper called her to apologize for a condescending on-air dispute in 2020 where he dismissed her concerns about Biden’s mental acuity. 

Laure revealed the phone call on Fox but said his apology was ‘a little too late’ -conveniently taking place just weeks before the publication of his tell-all book about the very topic. 

One of the most prominent examples of this was back in October 2020, when Lara pointed to a speech of Biden’s and said: ‘What we see on stage is a very clear cognitive decline.’

Tapper immediately interjected, savaging her with a haughty response that she had ‘absolutely no standing to diagnose somebody’s cognitive decline’ and accusing her of instead ‘mocking his stutter.’

While Tapper has publicly apologized for his response and admitted a sense of ‘humility’ over being proven wrong, Lara has now revealed he reached out to her privately two months ago.

‘Jake Tapper called me about two months ago and he said “I have this book coming out,”‘ she told Fox News host Laura Ingraham.

Tapper told her ‘I know everybody is saying I should apologize to you. I plan, when the book comes out, to go on TV and say you were right and I was wrong.’

While she appreciated the acknowledgment and that Tapper has since stuck to his word by apologizing publicly, she noted that ‘it feels a little bit too late to me.’

On Friday, Biden told reporters he and his family are optimistic about his diagnosis and that he was taking pills as part of his treatment

On Friday, Biden hit back at Tapper’s book revelations after a female reporter asked about his mental capabilities. 

‘You can see that I was mentally incompetent and I can’t walk and I can beat the hell out of both of them,’ he joked to a female reporter, leaning down to speak to her after speaking at a service in honor of Memorial Day. 

The former president down played revelations from the new book and chatter from Democrats that he should have never run for re-election, saying: ‘Why didn’t they run against me then? I could have beaten them.’

‘I don’t have any regrets,’ he added.

The remarks were the first ones Biden made since his cancer diagnosis. His voice sounded hoarse as he spoke to reporters at Veterans Park in Wilmington, Del. He attends the ceremony to honor veterans every year.

He and his family are optimistic about his diagnosis, Biden said, adding he was taking pills as part of his treatment.

‘The expectation is we’re going to be able to beat this,’ he said. ‘It’s not in any organ…. my bones are strong. I feel good.’
