NewsGuard STILL Gives High Marks to Media that Covered Up Biden Mental Decline Scandal

CNN anchor and slick-haired blowhard Jake Tapper’s tell-all book on how Democrats covered up President Joe Biden’s mental decline the past four years was just released today. Not surprisingly, website traffic cop NewsGuard is still giving the liberal media outlets that helped perpetuate this cover-up stellar marks for journalistic credibility.

Outlets like CNN, Politico, Bloomberg News, Slate and others have falsely tried to cast Biden’s conservative critics on his deterioration and on the media’s complicity in burying the story as peddling “unfounded” “conspiracy” theories, which now look utterly ridiculous in retrospect of Tapper’s new book. As syndicated radio host Chris Plante has repeatedly noted on his show, Biden’s “brain? She’s-a Broke! She’s-a no good!”

But these outlets have not corrected the false stories MRC Business uncovered that tried to hide or obscure this and the media and Democrats’ complicity, but yet still managed to attain high scores from 80-100 from NewsGuard for allegedly adhering to the dystopian ratings outfit’s pathetic excuse for “standards for credibility and transparency.” 

To be fair, the aforementioned outlets did eventually lend credence in other stories they published to the notion of Biden’s mental state declining as the evidence was too obvious to deny. But it still doesn’t excuse the articles they did run that tried to cast doubt on the entire story and the argument that the media was intentionally ignoring the glaring signs of the former president’s worsening senility, and it definitely doesn’t excuse NewsGuard’s efforts to still treat these outlets as star-studded examples of bang-up job journalism.

Arguably the worst offender was — there’s an ironic surprise — CNN, where Tapper anchors The Lead. The pro-Biden network, which holds a comfortable 80/100 by NewsGuard, was simping for Biden’s supposed genius as early as 2021. Then-CNN Editor-at-Large Chris Cillizza published a retrospectively absurd August 19, 2021 story headlined, “Republicans keep trying to make Biden’s mental capacity an issue.” Cillizza pompously dismissed that “[d]espite the issue being, largely, moot during the campaign, Republicans continue to keep questions about Biden’s mental health front and center.”

Democrat Lawmaker Admits Biden Was Not Running the Country – “Maybe we Should have Asked Questions”

Democrat Rep. Ami Bera (CA) on Tuesday admitted that “maybe we should have asked questions” and that he thinks maybe Joe Biden wasn’t the one running the country during his presidency.

This comes as more and more questions arise surrounding who was really running the country, especially with the Biden autopen scandal, which revealed that many official actions during the sham Biden presidency were fraudulently signed with an automated signature.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) has alleged that staffers in Joe Biden’s administration engaged in a “cash for clemency” scheme, using an autopen to issue pardons in exchange for financial payoffs.

Outgoing Acting US Attorney for DC and now incoming Pardon Attorney, Ed Martin, announced earlier this month that the Justice Department is reviewing Joe Biden’s last-minute pardons amid the growing autopen scandal.

President Trump recently said in a fiery Truth Social post that the autopen conspirators “stole the Presidency of the United States, and put us in Great Danger.” He continued, “This is TREASON at the Highest Level! They did it to destroy our Country.”

“Treasonous Thugs” – President Trump Says People Who Controlled Joe Biden’s Autopen Committed Treason, Calls For Severe Consequences

President Trump on Tuesday said the people who ran Joe Biden’s autopen committed treason.

“Joe Biden was not for Open Borders, he never talked about Open Borders, where criminals of all kinds, shapes, and sizes, can flow into our Country at will. It wasn’t his idea to Open the Border, and almost destroy our Country, and cost us Hundreds of Billions of Dollars to get criminals out of our Country, and go through the process we are going through now. It was the people that knew he was cognitively impaired, and that took over the Autopen. They stole the Presidency of the United States, and put us in Great Danger. This is TREASON at the Highest Level! They did it to destroy our Country. The Joe Biden that everybody knew would never allow drug dealers, gang members, and the mentally insane to come into our Country totally unchecked and unvetted. All anyone has to do is look up his record. Something very severe should happen to these Treasonous Thugs that wanted to destroy our Country, but couldn’t, because I came along. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump said on Truth Social.

Michael Goodwin: Dems’ cover-up of Biden’s mental, physical decline is a bombshell of bad news – and it’s going from bad to worse

A favorite Lily Tomlin line was made for this moment: “No matter how cynical you get, it is impossible to keep up.” 

She could have been talking about the Biden White House. 

Those of us who were long convinced that aides were hiding the president’s cognitive decline weren’t cynical enough.

We also needed to believe they were hiding other serious ailments, such as prostate cancer. 

Hmm, what else didn’t we suspect that we should have? 

Whatever it is, the odds are soaring that we are going to find out.

The announcement of his advanced cancer follows the release of the recording of the former president’s interview with special counsel Robert Hur. 

Together, they amount to a bombshell of bad news for Biden and his party. 

The interview, about the stash of classified documents he kept, electrified Washington because it revealed how bumbling and incoherent Biden was back in October 2023, 16 months before he left office, meaning we had a president unfit for duty for at least that long. 

And to think he was then still seeking re-election and was effectively tied with Donald Trump.

Gallup found that 75% of Democrats supported him.

Joe Biden’s Cabinet Meetings Were Scripted, Used Cameras Creatively to Cover Mistakes

The hits just keep coming for Joe Biden’s presidency and the Democrat party.

One of the details in Jake Tapper’s book, which came out today, is that Biden’s cabinet meetings were scripted, meaning that they were little more than theater. People in these meetings were more like actors than government officials. They also reportedly used cameras to cover any mistakes.

If this is accurate, it basically means that Biden’s presidency was almost completely fake.

From The Hill:

Tapper and Thompson also reported Biden increasingly relied on teleprompters and note cards even for private discussions like Cabinet meetings.

“Before these meetings, White House staff called the various departments and agencies to figure out what they were going to ask the president so that answers could be prepared. The conversations were largely scripted, even after the press had left the room,” the authors reported…

When a group would ask Biden to record a five-minute address for keynoting an event, the White House usually responded that the video would be one to two minutes, Tapper and Thompson report. But Biden still struggled with that.

“To compensate for that, aides filmed Biden with two cameras instead of one. If Biden messed up, the edit was less obvious with a jump cut,” they reported. “Other politicians use jump-cuts, but Biden aides noted to themselves how much more often they had to use them for the president.”

Top Democrat Doubles Down on the Biden Cover-Up

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is demanding everyone stop talking about one of the biggest political scandals of the century: President Joe Biden’s mental decline. He says it’s insensitive given Biden’s latest cancer diagnosis, a fresh scandal which was also covered up. 

Jeffries clearly doesn’t know what time it is. Doubling down on the cover up isn’t going to work. In fact, it’s making things much worse. 

Even the DC swamp bubble isn’t buying it anymore. From a top Axios story this morning: 

Biden’s cancer diagnosis draws sympathy — and suspicion.Former President Biden’s disclosure that he had Stage 4 prostate cancer was quickly met with sympathy late Sunday. By yesterday morning, the questions – from Democrats and Republicans alike – had begun, Axios’ Marc Caputo, Alex Thompson and Tal Axelrod write.

Why it matters: The timing of Biden’s announcement, coupled with the way his handlers tried to cover up his health issues in the past, fueled speculation about how long he’d known about the cancer.

People in both parties, whether they love Biden or despise him, wondered whether the announcement was timed to change the subject after a week of reports about his physical and mental deterioration when he was president.

Trump Suggests Biden’s Cancer Diagnosis Is Part Of A Bigger Coverup

President Trump noted Monday that there could be a more encompassing scandal behind Joe Biden’s sudden diagnosis of advanced cancer. 

During an open briefing in the Oval Office, the president suggested that an investigation should be conducted into how Biden’s cancer could have gone undetected for so long.

“If it’s the same doctor who said there was nothing wrong there, that’s being proven to be a sad situation,” Trump stated.

He added, “In other words, there are things going on that the public wasn’t informed. And I think somebody is going to have to speak to his doctor, if it’s the same or even if it’s two separate doctors.”

“Why wasn’t the cognitive ability — why wasn’t that discussed?” Trump continued, adding “I think the doctors said he’s just fine, and it’s turned out that’s not so.”

“It’s very dangerous. Look, this is no longer politically correct. This is dangerous for our country,” the President urged.

From all accounts, if this diagnosis is to be believed, Biden must have had cancer before he entered office in 2021.

Media Ignored Biden’s Health After Spending Years Obsessing Over Trump’s

It’s become fairly obvious that for four years under Joe Biden, the United States was subjected to a puppet presidency in which its commander-in-chief was out to lunch on major policy initiatives enacted by unknown officials within his administration. And for four years, this unelected oligarchy was permitted to exercise its will with virtually no critical oversight from America’s legacy media, whose newfound interest in the subject is only now happening because some of their biggest hacks have a book to sell.

While these left-wing propagandists want Americans to believe their sudden coverage of Biden’s decline proves their credibility, it’s actually an indictment of it — especially when contrasting their years-long silence to how they fomented worries about Donald Trump’s health.

Throughout his first administration, the media relentlessly pushed conspiracy-laden articles and “questions” about Trump’s physical and mental fitness to serve as president.

In February 2017, Forbes ran an article by then-contributor Emily Willingham highlighting an online petition signed by tens of thousands of self-professed “mental health professionals.” Started by a former Johns Hopkins psychologist, the petition and its signatories — whom Willingham admits have “not been confirmed” to be actual “mental health professionals” — declared without evidence that Trump “manifests a serious mental illness that renders him psychologically incapable of competently discharging the duties of President of the United States” and asked that “he be removed from office” under the 25th Amendment.

David Axelrod: Since Biden Has Cancer, His Senility Must Be ‘Set Aside for Now’

Honestly, I didn’t think the Democrats would be this stupid. So I guess I owe ‘em an apology for underestimating their idiocy.

“Sorry, guys.”

In a perfect world, the Democratic Party establishment would love nothing more than to close the book on the Biden years forever. It’s a net loser: The ex-president was historically unpopular, and the latest revelations over his obvious, undeniable mental decline are outrageous. 

But it’s more than that.

The Biden cover-up is now a legitimate scandal. You can’t dismiss it as a MAGA talking point anymore. The leaked Robert Hur audio tapes were the coup de grâce. 

It hasn’t happened yet. All this new info is still “marinating” in their brains. But by the end of the month, liberal voters will be WAY angrier about the Biden cover-up than Republicans!

Why?

Republicans were furious because Biden’s mental decline was apparent, and liberals kept insisting that he was still “as sharp as a tack” and running circles around his staff (behind closed doors, of course). The Constitutional concerns aside, on a purely emotional level, nobody likes being lied to.

But arguably, liberals were victimized by the Biden cover-up more than conservatives: They were cheated out of a fair and honest Democratic primary. They didn’t get to select the candidate they wanted. 

They were disenfranchised from the entire process!

And as an end-result, they got Donald Freaking Trump — the most evil man in the history of the world! — back in the White House. For liberals, this was the stuff of nightmares.

Meanwhile, all the party leaders who lied to ‘em are acting like it’s no big deal.

Liberal anger is growing.

It’s why Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer keeps saying, “We’re just looking forward” whenever he’s asked about Biden: He knows it’s a net loser to keep talking about it, but he doesn’t really know what to say to deflect the questions. So instead, he’s just refusing to answer ‘em anymore.

Schumer’s approach won’t work. This isn’t something you can wait out.

Shameless Liar Hakeem Jeffries Accuses Republicans of Pushing ‘Conspiracy Theories’ When Asked if Democrats Were Dishonest About Biden’s Health

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries spun an astounding lie while speaking to the press today.

A reporter asked Jeffries, “Given the revelations with Biden’s cancer diagnosis, and the release of the Hur recording, why were Democrats not more open to talking about President Biden’s age in 2024?”

Not only does Jeffries not answer the question, he completely ignores it.

First, he talks about thoughts and prayers for Joe Biden. Then he launches into a ridiculous rant about how cruel Republicans are spreading conspiracy theories.

To make matters worse, he then advances fake news about Republicans cutting healthcare for Americans.

Democrats and the media used to call Joe Biden’s diminished mental state a conspiracy theory. How did that work out?

You know what’s very telling about this clip? There is no mainstream media reportage on it. None. Zero. Why do you suppose that is? Could it be because the media knows that every single thing Jeffries says here is pure deflection or an outright lie?
