LAS VEGAS, NEVADA: A newly released dispatch audio reveals that law enforcement officials in Las Vegas were told to prepare to meet President Joe Biden at two local hospitals in July, days ahead of his suspension from his reelection campaign.

According to the New York Post, the audio clip was obtained by Judicial Watch on Friday, October 4, following a Nevada Public Records Act request about Biden abruptly canceling his scheduled speech before a Latino advocacy group.

The 81-year-old incumbent was not hospitalized when he was in Vegas on July 17. The publication reported that he was flown back to his beach house in Delaware, where he remained before ending his campaign after four days and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris.

White House had reasoned at the time that the incumbent had tested positive for Covid-19. However, the statement has been put into question by the audio clip. The NYP further noted that Biden did not appear in public before July 23, when he returned to the White House.

The conservative watchdog Judicial Watch released a trio of dispatches which brings to light that the Vegas police responded to Code 421, meaning that POTUS was likely 'sick or injured.' They also deployed lights and sirens to clear a path to the University Medical Center and then to Harry Reid International Airport.

An unnamed officer is heard saying in the recordings, "For everybody on the radio, right now POTUS is 421. He’s being seen, so we are kind of waiting to see how this is shaping out."

Other officials are heard in following dispatches urging “everyone who is able straight to Valley Hospital ER” and instructing them to meet “behind the ER entrance where the ambulance is going.” A call was put out for maximum tactical alert at the time, and some major thruways were completely closed off.

“All my units at the airport, be advised that the motorcade is at Air Force One, so just hold your road closures until I tell you otherwise,” says an officer, while another states, "I need to get all the major intersections with lights shut down from Desert Inn all the way to Russell."

Later in the clip, an officer is overheard saying, "Control, 302, just want to let everybody know great work out there. We put that together ad hoc. Appreciate all the resources coming over. You did a fantastic job. Looked like we had planned it for weeks. So, great job everybody. If I could ask everybody to please stand by until we get the plane off the ground.”

President of Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton, claims that the audio raised “significant questions about whether the American people were told the full truth about President Biden’s health status.”
