Many are asking, “Who’s really running the White House? Who’s in charge?” While it’s a complex question with likely many layers—including a potential top spot for Barry Obama—the day-to-day operations seem to be under the control of Jill Biden. While she’s portrayed as a simple “school principal,” she’s now seemingly playing “president,” while her incapacitated husband licks ice cream cones and wanders aimlessly. And now, a very telling line in Jill’s recent Vogue interview says it all, giving us a peek behind that “magic” Biden curtain.
However, we can go farther back to see Jill’s “magical touch” in the United States and beyond. Who can forget this image, showing a hardworking Jill sitting at the presidential desk on Air Force One?
This is when we found out Jill is a “foreign policy expert” who is making key decisions.
A few months after her husband took office, Jill Biden posted on social media a photo of herself sitting at a desk aboard Air Force One looking very important.
“Prepping for the G7,” she wrote on her @FLOTUS “US Government Official” account, under the photo in which a scholarly “Dr. Jill,” wearing reading glasses, pen in hand, is studying a thick ring binder of notes.
A flight jacket with the presidential seal is draped over the back of the chair, to leave you in no doubt about the power behind the throne.
As the 72-year-old wife of the oldest president in history, the effrontery of this spousal usurper on her first overseas trip was a portent of liberties to come.
Three years later, as her husband, now 81, grows increasingly befuddled, Dr. Jill is stepping up, doing solo campaign visits and TV appearances, weighing in on politics and polls as if it were she who is running for office.
And now we hear that the first lady has been pressuring her husband on Israel’s war on Hamas with these words: “Stop it. Stop it now, Joe.”
At a Ramadan event at the White House last week, Joe Biden reportedly told attendees about Jill’s sophisticated geopolitical advice.
