As questions swirl about President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline, CNN reported that some of the president’s advisors have threatened violence against White House staffers, saying they would “beat the sh*t” out of” anyone who counters their narrative on Biden’s health.
Reporter M.J. Lee revealed the claims during a CNN segment with anchor Jake Tapper.
“You know, we talked to a lot of folks who said, ‘Of course we know that he has aged. Of course, we had seen some signs, especially over the last year, of his decline in terms of his physical stamina, his mental clarity,’” Lee said.
“But that version of the president that we saw on the debate stage, they said was basically unrecognizable,” she added.
Lee continued by explaining, “What my colleagues and I have really reported on is there is a lot of anger and the blame that is being placed on the inner circle of advisers and family members around the president and what these people say is this really painstakingly choreographed and stage managed daily operations at the White House around the president that is set up, specifically designed to prevent the public from often seeing the president in these extended unscripted settings.”
