For years the White House has dismissed concerns that President Biden’s mental faculties had diminished. But a Wall Street Journal investigation has uncovered the ugly truth surrounding our oldest president.
The Journal’s expose is titled, “How the White House Functioned With a Diminished Biden in Charge.” It’s scathing.
If the president was having an off day, meetings could be scrapped altogether. On one such occasion, in the spring of 2021, a national security official explained to another aide why a meeting needed to be rescheduled. “He has good days and bad days, and today was a bad day so we’re going to address this tomorrow,” the former aide recalled the official saying.
Aides kept meetings short and controlled access to the president. Top advisors kept the president away from his Cabinet secretaries.
The Journal notes that while all presidents have gatekeepers – those around Biden had walls and they grew higher and higher throughout the presidency.
Sources said the hand holding was unlike anything they had ever seen in the Oval Office. Meetings had to be brief because Biden would fall asleep or become confused if they went longer.
The White House Press Corps had a front row view to all of this – but turned a blind eye.
If President Biden was not able to carry out his constitutional responsibilities – who has been running the White House over the past four years? Watch the Todd Starnes Show live below and click here to read my book, “Twilight’s Last Gleaming: Can America Be Saved?”
