Cabinet members submitted questions for ‘pre-scripted’ meetings with Biden – report

July 12, 2024 | | Print Article

The staged nature of Joe Biden’s presidency can no longer be hidden from Americans after his epic fail during CNN’s debate two weeks ago, and daily leaks are now painting a disturbing picture of how he’s been propped up.

According to a bombshell CNN report that cites anonymous sources with “direct knowledge” of the situation, the geriatric leader’s meetings with his Cabinet are “pre-scripted” and it’s “customary” for Cabinet officials to submit questions in advance of the closed-door meetings with Biden.

In their report about how Biden has been “increasingly stage-managed” by his handlers, reporters MJ Lee, Jeff Zeleny, Kayla Tausche, and Jamie Gangel cite two sources who told the outlet, “Ahead of closed-door Cabinet meetings that Biden attends, it is customary for Cabinet officials to submit questions and key talking points that they plan to present in front of Biden ahead of time to White House aides.”

“The entire display is kind of an act,” one source said. “They would come and say, ‘Hey, the president is going to call on you about 25 minutes in and ask this question. What are the bullet points you’ll respond with?’”

According to the second source, when the rapidly deteriorating octogenarian does attend the meetings, they are “not free-wheeling, and pretty well-orchestrated” with the meetings being so infrequent that one Cabinet secretary told the outlet that “they are uncertain of Biden’s condition because they so rarely see him.”

Perhaps even more disturbing, CNN reports that the “last full Cabinet meeting took place on October 2, 2023” which should beg the question of who is really running the country.

“This isn’t normal or acceptable for an American president. It sounds like a story from an authoritarian country,” said polling guru Nate Silver in a post to X, sharing the CNN story.

One important official who isn’t a Cabinet member told House lawmakers that he hasn’t spoken or met with Biden in two years.

“Any president calls, you come and you meet,” Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said. “But that hasn’t happened.”

“There can go by long periods of time when the Fed chair doesn’t meet with the president and that’s totally fine,” Powell added, downplaying the lack of communication like a good soldier.

The shocking revelation about the Cabinet meetings was part of a larger story about rising Democrat anger with Biden’s advisers and inner circle who have hidden his condition, even though Republicans and conservative media have pointed out Biden’s encroaching senility for years.

“There’s this general sense of just, unbelievable holding your breath every time he does an event, every time he’s with people,” one unnamed top Democrat who’s in “close touch” with the president’s inner circle told the outlet, adding that some advisers have acknowledged privately: “This is going to get worse.”

On Thursday, Biden had two more major and very embarrassing senior moments when he referred to running mate Kamala Harris as “Vice President Trump” during his “Big Boy” press conference and introduced Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy as “President Putin” at the big NATO summit.
