I’ve written a lot about how things changed on June 27th because the media was shown to be either willingly incompetent: We didn’t know that Biden had elder issues or lying through their teeth: We knew what shape Biden was in but we weren’t about to tell you and disrupt the Democrat narrative.
This was a solid crisis for the MSM/left because the debate which apparently the Biden campaign figured Trump would duck due to the insane conditions that were set showed every single person in the media and government who INSISTED that those who said Joe Biden had elder issues. It was a real 2 Book of Samuel chapter 12 verse 12 moment when the Prophet Nathan says to David concerning his arranging the murder of Uriah the Hittite
You have done this deed in secret, but I will bring it about in the presence of all Israel, and with the sun looking down.'”
And thus for the last 16 days we’ve had report after report from the MSM concerning the mental health issues of Joe Biden from the same people who denied it for years.
The reaction from the MSM was panic as not only was this going on, but Donald Trump wasn’t stepping on this story media site after media site kept asking why wasn’t Trump stealing the spotlight? Even Meta & Instagram suddenly revoked the bans on Trump’s use of those accounts in the last 48 hours in the hopes that there might be a statement or image to change the story of Election 2024 from Joe Biden and return it to Donald Trump.
Be careful what you wish for.

Before I say another word let me give a shout out to this photographer who as this video shows, ran to the point of danger to get this shot. He showed the same guts under fire that Trump did.

Suddenly the media turned on a dime. The same media who has for weeks been telling everyone that if Trump is re-elected it would be the end of democracy as we know it, who said Trump must be stopped at all costs, who have compared him to Hitler and INSISTED the comparison was apt.
This was a left-wing magazine's cover one week ago.
They wanted this to happen. Every day, they fanned a fire they had created to make this happen.
I plan on retweeting this on a daily basis until the election but I think Victor Davis Hansen makes the point even better in his latest:
Bidengate is far worse than Watergate. The media this time around was not exposing the wrongdoing of a conservative president but instead serving as a force multiplier in deceiving the very American people it was supposed to inform. โDemocracy Dies in Deceitโ is now the Washington Postโs de facto motto.
Remember, the left is worried only that Biden is so challenged that he cannot win an election. But they areย notย bothered that he has no business continuing in his dementia as commander-in-chief and putting the country in real danger each day he occupies the oval officeโa bitter paradox that is beginning to infuriate the American people.
Never forget this: The Purpose of the media is to support the left’s quest for power at all costs and whatever it does, reports or says is to that end:
When they could help the left gain and/or retain power by ignoring Biden’s condition they did it.
When they could help the left gain/retain power they reported it.
Of all the aspects of the great reveal (at least to Americans) about the condition of Joe Biden the part that has bothered me the most has been that nobody at all seems to care to publicly ask the question: Who’s the actual Boss who is functioning as President of the United States?
You don’t see it asked on TV, you don’t hear it asked on Talk Radio and certainly nobody in the press is asking the question.
I suspect this is because a lot of us on the right don’t need to be told. We figured out that this was Obama’s 3rd term from day 1 and don’t need to be told who has been actively and purposely destroying this country over the last three years and contrarywise nobody on the left wants to acknowledge that they’re OK with having an unelected and unaccountable person (or persons) ruling over them. Well except for Bill Mahar. That’s the “Democracy” they’re looking to save.
In terms of the health of this republic on the anniversary of its birth that’s the saddest thing of all.
The first big lie concerning this has been telling us Joe Biden is fit for office, the 2nd Big lie that the media has been pushing is that they had no idea this was going on.
That is the primary reason why you suddenly see Jake Tapper asking tough questions, the MSM suddenly generating stories about Biden’s mental health etc.
Or he's setting himself up as a "truth teller" so that he can be useful to attack trump during a 2nd term
The Obama team that’s running the show knows even they can’t salvage the credibility of this administration to the left, but it’s vital that they salvage the credibility of the press or their usefulness is at an end.
Over the weekend there were conflicting reports on if the decision was made to Drop Joe Biden or not was made, Bill O’Reilly tells us that the decision to drop Biden has in fact been made and I think the best proof of it was the decision to send Joe Biden out to make a four minute speech from a teleprompter and then door dash away.
One doesn’t make that kind of decision if you are trying to convince the American people that old Joe is just fine and dandy, but you DO if you want to erode support for keeping him on the ticket from a voter base that (God knows why) is actually fond of him while convincing the no longer useful idiots of the Biden family that they need to go without having to arrange his demise that’s the way to do it.
That in fact was, in my opinion, the reason for arranging the debate so early. When this happens the Obama team has the time to remove him and if he had somehow managed to muddle through that’s four more years of the US run by our enemies.
One of the most significant reports that I’ve heard so far has been that Biden has been using a teleprompter at big money donor events for a very long time now.
While one should not doubt the ability of humans to ignore painful truths that they don’t want to acknowledge to any donor that should have been a gigantic clue as to what is actually going on. Apparently all these big money Donors who have been opening up their checkbooks for this administration for the last three years didn’t care that Biden wasn’t in charge as long as they were getting their cuts and priorities from those who were.
But now that the general public knows suddenly they can’t see pouring money down the drain. That stoppage of the feed trough is the best chance they have of convincing the Biden family to step aside without the Obama team having to arrange an “accident”.
Or as Sarah Hoyt put it:
I’ll get ahead of the news, Biden didn’t kill himself
While all of this creates a lot of trouble for the left the biggest problem the big reveal has created is that it’s taken the focus of the election off of Donald Trump and puts it on Joe Biden.
The single biggest strength of the left is the irrational hatred so many Americans have of Donald Trump. During the Trump years we had a good economy, successes nationally and internationally and the most robust dissent allowed without penalty. Yet the media/left has managed to sell the belief to their useful idiots that Trump who will be a lame duck as soon as he is elected, will somehow become a dictator putting people in camps despite the fact all these folks lived through the Trump administration without finding themselves oppressed by Dictatorship.
But between the SCOTUS rulings short circuiting the various trials and sentencings and the Biden dementia scandal the focus of the election has been taken off of Donald Trump and placed on Joe Biden.
Given the Biden economy, the riots, the wars and the economy as bad as I’ve ever seen in my life (Bob’s stores are the latest victims of it) the last thing the left wants is for this election to be a referendum on the Biden Administration. As long as it remains so Trump has a chance to create a vote margin between him and his opponent “too big to rig”.
This is why I think the 137 days to election day are going to be the most dangerous days for the American Republic in my lifetime because we are going to see the left make moves consistent with a desperate cornered animal.
