The White House intentionally hid from the public Joe Biden’s rapidly declining mental condition for his entire Presidency, according to a new report. The Mail has more.
Biden’s team hired a vocal coach, put other officials into roles usually occupied by the President, scrapped meetings on his “bad days”, and avoided calls with other politicians, according to an explosive report in the Wall Street Journal.
It exposed an extensive and deliberate cover-up that also saw the administration gaslighting those who dared to claim Biden’s abilities had deteriorated since he was Barack Obama’s Vice President.
Despite the efforts of aides Biden’s decline became increasingly obvious, especially after Special Counsel Robert Hur last year released a report depicting a forgetful and frail then-81 year-old.
Hur decided not to charge Biden for keeping classified documents in his Delaware garage because he “would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory”.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Biden could not even repeat back to his staff lines they fed him while preparing for his interview with Hur.
Biden would also cancel important national security meetings, with aides explaining to attendees that he had “bad days and good days”.
A well-connected Democratic strategist confirmed to DailyMail.com that the majority of Biden’s executive power is “concentrated by people who are not external facing”, including his close advisers Bruce Reed, Steve Ricchetti, and Mike Donilon.
For years, Biden’s lower-level staff have griped that the behind-the-scenes ‘triumvirate’ – known as the ‘Biden whisperers’ – have had an outsized influence over the President.
As his Presidency comes to an end, many in Washington agree that it has been hard to tell who is actually in charge of running the country.
Egregious examples of the White House cover-up included one from Congressman Adam Smith, from Washington, who was Chair of the House Armed Services Committee.
He could not get in touch with the President ahead of the bungled withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 to share his serious concerns about the plan.
When 13 U.S. service members and 170 Afghans were killed, he made critical comments publicly and was reprimanded by Secretary of State Antony Blinken, a close Biden ally.
Biden finally called Smith to apologise and, despite his key role in Congress, it was the only personal call he received in the President’s entire four years.
Close aides also worried about the comparison between Biden and his wife Jill Biden, who is eight years his junior and conducted an energetic, packed schedule that only highlighted the president’s “plodding” pace, the Wall Street Journal reported.
In late June this year, Biden’s decline was on full display when he debated Donald Trump. Gaffes, fumbles and blank stares from the President filled the hour-and-a-half televised event. It proved catastrophic for his campaign.
This from the administration that waged war on misinformation.

It wouldn’t matter if it relied on viewership to fund itself. It would just die off quite quickly as people stopped watching and listening to their garbage.
The problem is that the state takes money from all of us to produce all the propaganda.
it’s like being forced to fund your enemy.
I don’t pay it, Starmer will just make the TV licence an internet tax. Mark my words.
This has already been done in Germany. The system there is a little different. You don’t need to get license to watch TV but a license is required for owning a device which could be used to watch TV or receive radio transmissions of public broadcasters. Without anyone asking for that, the German public broadcasters all started to offer internet streaming services and hence, turned everyone with a device which could access anything on the internet into a forcibly recruited subscriber.
Yes, like the “Devshirme” tribute of Balkan Christian children demanded by the Ottoman Turks for 300 years, or the “Jizya Tax” demanded of all infidels.
So candidates who are “dismissive or derisory of diversity and inclusion” will be excluded, thus making the BBC less diverse!
Doublethink is strong with these people. Orwell knew what he was talking about.
Candidates should test the BBC on their commitment to equity by demanding the same salary as Gary Lineker.
That wouldn’t be fair – they would be doing ten times more work than the crisp salesman.
The short answer to this question (“explain what …”) is “Nothing”. Both are umbrella terms without any real meaning.
And that’s why you’re not BBC material. Which, in many ways, is not at all insulting. Quite the opposite.
Diversity = Less White People. ——–So you will be employed by the BBC if you approve of that. Do the BBC think that all white people are oppressors, and all black people are oppressed? Do they then believe that these people should receive preferential treatment? ——-Here are a couple of BBC headlines “Inside the mind of White America”—-“Elderly White men block change.”.——The Cultural Marxists at the BBC like to dive us up into different groups (1) Black or White (2) Muslim or Christian (3) Straight or LGBT (4) Oppressors and Oppressed. ——–The name of the game is “Intolerance” in the name of “Tolerance”———The “Dying Breed” white male has to go.
Stopping racism with racism. Keeping people out in the name of inclusion. Making sure everyone looks the same to ensure diversity. Giving people priority to ensure equality. Orwell wouldn’t know whether he should be horrified or proud that he called it.
As diverse intellectually as the Hitler youth leadership.
“explain what diversity and inclusion means to you …..’
So if you say something like – ‘it means no white people, especially no white men, plus the promotion of biologically inaccurate labelling instead of merit or ability for hiring purposes, to meet DEI criteria and ESG scores’ – will that get you the job?
“will that get you the job?”
No. Shortlist possibly.
This is why I call this a viral ideology. Once it infiltrates a company, it completely takes over. We hire people in good faith because we believe they are the best qualified candidates to do the job. And then they turn around and replace all the people around them with their own. And before you know it you’re being kicked out cause you’re no longer adequate. This is happening in organizations and governments across the board. And it is our fault that we allowed such a hateful and hostile ideology to take hold. Now there’s no purging it. The people that should do the purging have already been replaced. They’re now protected by law. I don’t see any way out of this other than convincing a majority of the population to fight back against this, to all demand of their employers to cleanse this virus from their HR departments. But we’re a decade away from that. By the time everyone catches on, it might be too late.
Other observation about diversity: The concept is inherently anti-democratic because it maintains that qualification for public offices and similar posts ought to depend on people’s pedigree.
Well here’s some people who are definitely dismissive of ”diversity”. Or at least in the Clown World context. I can’t believe they got fined 18,000 euros for stating a fact. There should be a law against this, but when the judiciary are epic woketards who act like they’d be better off banged up in a nut house due to being a liability to rational and sane folk then you’ve got no chance.
”Bayer Leverkusen has been fined €18,000 by the German Football Association’s (DFB) sports court after its supporters unfurled a banner that stated there are only two genders — a move deemed to be discriminatory against the LGBT community.
The Bundesliga club was indicted by the DFB for “discriminatory, unsportsmanlike behavior on the part of its supporters” for the incident that occurred during the team’s away match against Werder Bremen on Nov. 25 last year.
A huge banner unrolled by fans displayed the slogan, “There are many styles of music but only two genders.”
The financial penalty was imposed in a ruling by a single judge who ruled that €6,000 of the fine could be used to fund “preventative measures against discrimination.”
The club and the DFB have agreed to the judgment, which is now legally binding.
Julian Reichelt, the former editor of Germany’s largest tabloid Bild, slammed the judgment and claimed the banner “simply states the basic biological fact of our existence.”
“The spirit of our institutions is being eaten away by an ideological virus,” he added.
Conservative commentator Anabel Schunke said the judgment was indicative of Germany entering “peak madhouse.”

There are actually three genders in German but Germans still have only two sexes (the German term for both gender and sex is Geschlecht, though).
Apart from that: Professional football is notoriously corrupt. And the corresponding institutions have long since been bought by the usual suspects. Hence, that’s not an indication of Germany entering peek mental asylum, it just confirms that the multinational companies sponsoring football via open advertising and hidden direct payments have the power to punish people for making public statements their executives consider disagreeable.
“The BBC is not a welcoming place for those with conservative opinions.”
That is very interesting, because I read somewhere years ago that US medical schools were quietly ensuring that no applicants with “conservative” views would ever be accepted, regardless of their abilities. Only applicants demonstrating left-wing views were allowed to become practicing physicians. I wonder if the same sinister vetting system is being used in UK and other western medical schools.
