Biden’s Presidency Is a Scandal of Historic Proportions
The “presidency” of Joe Biden is one of the greatest scandals in American history. The legacy media is only now covering the psychic incapacity of a president who apparently left the entire ship of state to the unaccountable bureaucracy.
Recently, Axios released a news dump audio of Biden’s 2023 interview with special counsel Robert Hur. The former president sounded senile and evasive when answering questions about his handling of top secret documents.
Biden certainly did not sound like someone who could be trusted to make large-scale national decisions or even small-scale personal ones.
Now the media elite act as if they are shocked to discover that Biden was actually unfit for office.
The release of these tapes was followed by a mainstream media reveal that Biden has been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer.
The cancer diagnosis is certainly a terrible aspect. But the idea that this should end the story about what occurred the last four years is a farce. It couldn’t be clearer now that due to psychic and physical ailments, Biden was a diminished man from the moment he assumed the president’s office.
Despite some of the aforementioned elite journalists calling for a lid to be put on conversations about Biden’s presidency due to his health, the reality is the cancer diagnosis only raises more unsettling questions. Is this really a new diagnosis? Did Biden’s doctors really somehow miss the signs of treatable cancer?
And that makes this situation entirely unprecedented.
Yes, President Woodrow Wilson was at one point incapacitated during his final term in office, but that was at the tail end of his presidency. Wilson suffered a series of strokes after his highly energetic campaign to convince Americans to join the League of Nations. His wife and even some members of the media tried to cover it up, but ultimately the Democratic Party pulled the plug on his extremely brief flirtation with running for a third term.
There was no widespread attempt to fool the American people and ensure another term for an “almost catatonic” president, as one witness at George Clooney’s June fundraiser for Biden described the candidate.
This situation with Biden was much, much worse, the cover-up far more extensive, and the consequences were far more potentially dire in the age of instant communication and weapons capable of quickly destroying all of human civilization.
How shall we think of those years in which multiple crises developed around the globe, Americans were mass deprived of employment due to government-forced lockdowns and vaccinations, states were browbeaten to allow children to get life-altering hormones, and an ultimately victorious presidential candidate was nearly jailed?
I’ve tried to think of some apt historical comparisons.
President John Tyler was known to some of his more cantankerous critics as “his accidency,” due to being the first vice president to assume the president’s office after the death of the commander in chief. The attitude was that nobody actually elected him to become president, and in the early days of the republic the Constitution was a bit murky about whether he could just assume office or a new election should be held.
Regardless of the nickname, Tyler became an aggressive, active commander in chief – somewhat to the chagrin of many in his party.
But Biden was in some way the mirror opposite. Despite being elected in a highly contested election, he seems to have never really assumed his responsibilities. Biden’s lethargy was only matched by his lack of transparency.
The better word for Biden would be “his irrelevancy.”
While the 46th president’s handlers, most likely at the behest of former President Barack Obama, led him around in an extended real-world version of a sitcom, the federal apparatus operated on its own.
This was rule by “experts,” or better said, rule by the managerial class that re-created the old spoils system but made it totally unaccountable to the American people.
Decisions were carried out by vast, interlocking agencies at the behest of their Democratic Party allies whom they serve.
This was the first fully deep-state presidency.
Biden was awarded by the Democratic Party with the nominal career-capping title as president, but the functions and even the decisions demanded of his office were clearly distributed to his subordinates and the federal leviathan.
The result was a complete disaster.
Americans rightly lost faith in their leaders and the elite institutions attached to this corrupted apparatus. U.S. foreign policy was at best strategically adrift. Our enemies around the globe went on the march. The people feared the government more than the government feared them.
The upshot of these calamities is that we were delivered a national wake-up call at a time of crisis. A political counterrevolution took place.
Even if the mainstream media wants to convince us that all these are aspects of the past, we should not forget how much they covered for a senile president’s obvious incapacity, and how deeply threatening the permanent bureaucratic state is to American liberty.
