UNITED STATES, JUL 19 – Annie Tomasini is the third Biden aide to invoke the Fifth Amendment amid House probes into alleged mental decline and unauthorized use of a presidential autopen, Republicans say.
- On Friday, Annie Tomasini, former deputy chief of staff, invoked her Fifth Amendment rights during a closed-door deposition before the House Oversight Committee in Washington, D.C.
