    'How the White House Functioned With a Diminished Biden in Charge'

    'During the 2020 presidential primary, Jill Biden campaigned so
    extensively across Iowa that she held events in more counties than her husband—a fact her press secretary at the time, Michael LaRosa, touted
    to a local reporter.

    His superior in the Biden campaign quickly chided him. As the three rode
    in a minivan through the state’s cornfields, Anthony Bernal, then a
    deputy campaign manager and chief of staff to Jill Biden, pressed LaRosa
    to contact the reporter again and play down any comparison in campaign appearances between Joe Biden, then 77, and his wife, who is eight years
    his junior. Her energetic schedule only highlighted her husband’s more plodding pace, LaRosa recalls being told.

    The message from Biden’s team was clear. “The more you talk her up, the more you make him look bad,” LaRosa said.

    The small correction foreshadowed how Biden’s closest aides and advisers would manage the limitations of the oldest president in U.S. history
    during his four years in office.

    To adapt the White House around the needs of a diminished leader, they
    told visitors to keep meetings focused. Interactions with senior
    Democratic lawmakers and some cabinet members—including powerful secretaries such as Defense’s Lloyd Austin and Treasury’s Janet Yellen—were infrequent or grew less frequent. Some legislative leaders
    had a hard time getting the president’s ear at key moments, including
    ahead of the U.S.’s disastrous pullout from Afghanistan.

    Senior advisers were often put into roles that some administration
    officials and lawmakers thought Biden should occupy, with people such as National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, senior counselor Steve
    Ricchetti and National Economic Council head Lael Brainard and her predecessor frequently in the position of being go-betweens for the president.

    Press aides who compiled packages of news clips for Biden were told by
    senior staff to exclude negative stories about the president. The
    president wasn’t talking to his own pollsters as surveys showed him trailing in the 2024 race.
    snippage

    Just as I predicted, the truth is coming out.
    The media and the WH played the democrat voters for fools and suckers
    for 4 plus years.

    Note some of the dates in the article.
    Biden was a train wreck from the day he took office.
    The media should be ashamed of themselves for knowingly lying to
    the public just to cover for "the big guy".

    And conservative news outlets like Fox, NewsMax, NewsNation, Washington Examiner,
    and yes, once again, the NY Post, were correct all along.

    So how does it feel libbys now that you've been lied to in a massive way and the conservatives,
    libertarians and other non radical left wing people in this group were also right all along
    while you have been making excuses for Joe Biden's obvious cognitive issues for years?

    The article is lengthy but it documents some scary behavior by the current POTUS and trust me
    this is just the beginning.
    More disturbing facts about the Biden presidency will be forthcoming.

    Of course it's doubtful you will see this reported on CNN, MSNBC, NPR, WAPO, HUFFPO and so forth
    because they were in on the scamming of the American voter all along.
