Included on the list of witnesses are Theodore Wold, who formerly served as Acting Assistant Attorney General in the Office of Legal Policy at the Justice Department and Deputy Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy during the Trump administration, Sean Spicer, former White House Press Secretary and Communications Director, and John Harrison, a legal scholar from the University of Virginia School of Law who previously served during former the Reagan and Bush administrations.
Democrats on the committee did not call any witnesses. Fox News Digital reached out to the top Democrat on the panel, Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., for comment.
The hearing, led by Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., was announced last month and will zero in on the alleged concealment of the 82-year-old former president’s reported mental decline while in office by the media and those closest to him.
Cornyn told Fox News Digital that the trio of witnesses selected for the hearing "have impressive records defending our Constitution and serving in the West Wing."

Cornyn and Schmitt join their colleagues in the House who are similarly demanding answers about what really went on behind the scenes during Biden’s presidency.
House Republicans are pushing to create a select committee that would investigate the Biden administration’s alleged cover-up.
Rep. Buddy Carter, R-Ga., introduced legislation last month to start a committee that would dive into "the potential concealment of information from the American public" regarding Biden’s health.
