Joe Biden, Sharp As a Vorpal Tack!
Foreign Officials: We've Noticed Biden's Mental Decline for a While Now
WH Officials: Joe Sundowns at 4pm, You Know

Really good video below, thanks to Sock Monkey.

Before that: now the WSJ reports that European officials noticed Biden's steep cognitive decline at the G7 meeting -- and before. Karen Townsend at Hot Air quotes the WSJ:

European officials had already been expressing worries in private about Biden's focus and stamina before Thursday's debate, with some senior diplomats saying they had tracked a noticeable deterioration in the president's faculties in meetings since last summer. There were real doubts about how Biden could successfully manage a second term but one senior European diplomat said U.S. administration officials denied there was any problem in private discussions.

Diplomats described Biden's performance at the Group of Seven leaders meeting in Italy in June as mixed, with Biden appearing physically frailer than in the past but alert in many of the most important discussions.

Biden missed the summit's dinner party in a medieval castle, an off-camera and less scripted part of the summit when leaders often exchange views most candidly. He was the only G-7 leader to not attend the meal; the White House told reporters in advance he wouldn't be there because it would be a "jam-packed two days" of meetings. Biden instead held an event with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and had a brief news conference.

OUT: Tapioca-packed

IN: Jam-packed

Officials said that Biden's performance and focus can vary hugely between meetings and even within a meeting. Two senior European officials cited an EU-U.S. summit last October in Washington where Biden had struggled to follow the discussions. Both said that he stumbled over his talking points at several moments, requiring Secretary of State Antony Blinken to intervene and point out the lines he should use.

"The reading in Europe is that this has been an unmitigated disaster," said Nathalie Tocci, director of the Institute of International Affairs in Rome and a former adviser to the EU's foreign-affairs chiefs, referring to Biden's attempts to reassure voters worried about his age.

More from the WSJ:


When Biden was in France to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day in June, he stumbled. During a bilateral meeting in Paris with Zelensky, Biden spoke so softly that reporters brought in to document the meeting between the two men could not initially hear the American president. Zelensky, a non-native English speaker, could be heard clearly.

During the brief exchange, Biden flubbed when explaining what the Ukranians would do with a new tranche of $225 million in funds that the U.S. was sending. Biden told Zelensky that money was "to help you reconstruct the electric grid." Officials traveling with the president explained that the money was actually a series of munitions including air defenses that could protect the electric grid, among other targets, and not for rebuilding the electric grid.

A friend reminded me: Remember when the media accidentally photographed Biden's prepared cheat-sheets for "news conferences"? The note cards had a picture of the reporter he was to call on, along with a pre-scripted response to the question the reporter had agreed to ask.

This was all totally normal, the media shouted! All presidents do this!

Maybe all Democrat presidents get the answers to the quiz ahead of time -- Trump sure didn't.

Donors have for months privately raised concerns about Biden's lack of spontaneity in settings with his biggest supporters.

At a September 2023 fundraiser in New York, Biden retold the same anecdote twice -- leaving at least one attendee shaken and worried about his age. In February, Biden used a teleprompter at a fundraiser in Los Angeles and questions were screened in advance, according to a person familiar with the matter -- frustrating some donors who had expected a more free-flowing exchange.

During a May fundraiser in Washington state, Biden appeared to lose his train of thought as he talked about Israel. "The ceasefire would begin tomorrow. It all has to do...you know, we've not..anyway, I guess I shouldn't get into all this about Israel but..."

...

For a while now Biden has been closely managed. Even at donor events done by Zoom back in 2020, questions were closely screened. Over the past year donors have been shocked to see Biden using a teleprompter at fundraising events to deliver a brief stump speech.

Obviously, Biden shouldn't need a teleprompter to address a friendly crowd -- in private.

But he needs a teleprompter for everything now.

How long have we been calling Joe Biden "Sundowner," given his obvious mental problems outside of the afternoon hours?

Now Axios (Politico For Kidz!) is confirming this.

The new spin: there are Two Bidens. The one the media keeps telling you about, the Sharp As a Tack, Engaged, Probing Biden, exists, but only between the hours of 10 am and 4 pm. You know, when he usually doesn't have cameras on him.

But after these hours, he Sundowns, and verbal gaffes, lapses of memory, and a foggy brain become common:

The past 36 hours showcased two Joe Bidens: the veteran president rallying voters in a swing state, and an 81-year-old man struggling to string thoughts together in a debate.

Why it matters: The public split screen isn't new to many inside the White House, where top aides have meticulously stage-managed minutiae such as Biden's sleep schedule, his orthopedic shoes, his walks to Marine One and his climb aboard Air Force One to try to blunt concerns about his age.

Oh, it's not new to them.

So they've been lying for four years. Got it.


Internally, many aides have seen flashes of an absent-minded Biden, but typically brush them off as ordinary brain farts because they usually see him engaged, eight current and former Biden officials told Axios.

But Thursday's debate has shattered the White House's efforts to show Biden at his best: a president capable of serving until 2029, when he'd be 86.


...

Beyond the politics of whether Biden can beat Trump again, the aides expressed new worries about whether the president can carry out his duties through another four-year term.

Friday, Biden eased some of those concerns with a full-throated campaign rally, where he found a more comfortable setting with a cheering crowd and a Teleprompter.


Between the lines: Biden's miscues and limitations are more familiar inside the White House.

The time of day is important as to which of the two Bidens will appear.

From 10am to 4pm, Biden is dependably engaged — and many of his public events in front of cameras are held within those hours.

Outside of that time range or while traveling abroad, Biden is more likely to have verbal miscues and become fatigued, aides told Axios.

Biden is an experienced president who can guide us through an emergency -- as long as it takes place between 10am and 4pm. For six hours per day, Biden is in command, boy!

That reporter discusses the story here, saying that Biden's aides have to "adapt to his limitations." He says there's anger about the "top of the White House staff" "gaslighting" everyone else.

They're saying this to reassure us. What must the actual truth look like?

The aides are now leaking this because they have been exposed as liars -- so they're throwing the boss under the bus as they claim well, you know, there are two Bidens, sometimes he's cogent, so we weren't lying about that.

Other times, after 4pm, you know, he's... a little fuzzy.

Jon Stewart's reaction is his typical schtick, though he does have a one or two decent jokes -- or really, shocked reactions to Biden's statements -- and you may just enjoy him coping and seething.

His remarks about the alarming Bidenface starting around 5:20 is the best part.


As the Biden family decides that Joe Biden is the only person in the White House who should keep his job -- all of his top advisors should be fired for Failing to Prepare Joe for Success -- Jen Psaki weighs in for her buddies and lovers and says don't blame the team!

And she says we need "important convos about what happens next."

She's not talking about giving him better teleprompter scripts.

Jen Psaki
@jrpsaki

There are a lot of important discussions and debates about this political moment we are in and the path forward, but the notion that the issue at the debate was the prep process done by people like @RonaldKlain and Anita Dunn who have successfully prepped many candidates including Obama, Clinton and Biden is absurd.

It was a bad debate. I have no doubt they were tough, strategic and direct. (Believe me I have seen them in action) but prep does not always determine the outcome.

Biden was bad. Important convos about what happens next. But if you are directing your ire at "prep" you are not talking about the right things.

Mika Brzezinski is pushing the pro-Biden spin that the aides and advisors are at fault. Check this new spin out: Yes, Biden is aging, and Biden's advisors have to "manage his age" properly.

I assume this means she wants the White House to Position Old Joe for Success by insisting the next debate take place at 2:30 pm.

The Daily Caller:

Age Has To Be Managed': Mika Brzezinski Throws Biden's Staff Under The Bus For Poor Debate Performance


MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski blamed President Joe Biden's staff Monday for his poor performance in a CNN debate, saying they had to manage his schedule better to account for his age.

...

"I really question his schedule. It makes me angry that he was moving across the world on four different time zones. It seems to me this is a lack of discipline," Brzezinski said. "These were important events that he was going to, but the stakes in this election could not be any higher."

He took off an entire week from his day-job of the presidency to prep for this debate. He calls a "lid" on most days by 11am. He never works weekends and is on vacation more often than a dog poops.

How light do you want his schedule to be?

"Like many, I want to know, was this a one-off episode or a sign of what's to come? Can his team and the president himself move forward with more discipline and also manage the fact that he is 81? And while we're at it, let's talk about his age. Age is wisdom and experience. In the case of Joe Biden, it leads to more bipartisan legislation passed than any president over the past few generations and the largest expansion of NATO's alliance in history. Under Joe Biden and his age, America is stronger economically and militarily than any time in half a century."

"While facts may not matter to Donald Trump and his friends in the far-right media, those are the objective facts. That is the undeniable truth," Brzezinski said after tallying Biden's accomplishments as part of a monologue extending over the first 15 minutes of "Morning Joe," with her husband and co-host, Joe Scarborough, absent. "Here's another truth. Age also needs to be managed. On my 50 over 50 lists, I celebrate women who are reaching their highest power while over 50, 60, 70, 80, even 90, and, yet, every one of those women are managing their fabulous age. I -- I don't think it's over."

Brzezinski had earlier expressed the opinion that "something was wrong" with Biden from the moment the president shuffled onto the stage for the debate with Trump.

"For me, watching what happened last night, again, it was terrible," Brzezinski said during the Friday episode of "Morning Joe," during which she clashed with her husband and co-host. "It was terrible, there's no way to spin it. I still wonder what he's going to look like in a week. I wonder if he was sick. He came out on the stage, and I thought something was wrong."

Shut the fuck up, dummy.

Biden says he may be old, but he knows what he's doing.

But... does he?

Free Beacon:

Biden Admin Flying Migrants Deported by Trump Back Into the US

Biden admin alarms immigration officials by reversing deportations of some Cameroonians

The Biden administration is flying previously deported Cameroonians whose asylum claims were determined to be invalid back into the United States, according to interviews with Immigration and Customs Enforcement staff and internal agency memos reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.

The program, which has not been announced to the public, appears to be a response to a February 2022 Human Rights Watch report about dozens of Cameroonians deported between 2019 and 2021 and then allegedly mistreated by their government. An estimated 80 to 90 Cameroonians were deported during that period of time.

But now some are arriving back in the United States under a program with little precedent, both current and former ICE officials say. All of the individuals deported under the previous administration were found not to have valid asylum claims in the United States.

The decision to fly back the previously deported Cameroonians is the latest instance of the Biden administration reversing its predecessor's immigration initiatives. On his first day in office, President Joe Biden rolled back a number of former president Donald Trump's border policies and paused southern border wall construction. Biden later ended a policy that forced asylum seekers to wait in Mexico before their court hearing, which critics blame for the sharp uptick in illegal border crossings.

"Gutting deportations isn't enough for the Biden administration, so now they're apparently bringing back previously deported illegal aliens," said former ICE official and director of investigations at the Center for Immigration Studies Jon Feere. "These are people who have already had their cases closed, one way or another, and they've been returned home."

Little reminder that illegal immigration is not a victimless crime.


Speaking of people who shouldn't be in the country: Pro-terrorism Hamas agents protested Biden at a fundraiser.

Anti-Israel protesters trying to disrupt President Biden's big-money Manhattan fundraiser Friday night clashed with cops and set off smoke bombs -- leading to dozens of arrests, sources said.

At least 32 demonstrators were arrested as they marched from Madison Square Garden toward the Hammerstein Ballroom on West 34th Street in Midtown, police sources said.

Video shows the mob of protesters -- many of them masked -- and police in riot gear trading shoves as they met on the sidewalk on the corner of West 34th Street and Eighth Avenue, less than a block from the venue.

Status: Mostly peaceful

11 One big thing jumps out from all of this excuse making - they're keeping him on the ticket. It's too hard to take him off, they don't have any agreement as to who could replace him, nobody wants to run Kamala, so they're keeping him on the top of the ticket, no matter what.

Saw a note that they're now going to move ahead the official nomination (through zoom call or something) to just a couple of weeks from now, just to kill all of the intraparty talk about replacing Joe. That will have the amusing effect of making the Convention in Chicago completely irrelevant - which suggest to me that the attendees are even more likely to act up and act out.

The reality of FJB finally became wildly known at the debate. His dementia had to be an open secret for years in the political/media world but they seemingly tacitly, possibly not so tacitly, all agreed to hide this. Bastards all. It isn't much of stretch to conclude Biden got set up with that first debate as a take out move; that accounts for the bum rush of dump FJB communications during the debate. Complete travesty. And during Pride Month.

Is there anyone in Joe's cabinet who has anything resembling a survival instinct who might get the ball rolling to get Joe replaced? Or are they all that stupid and blinded by their insane ideology?

No one is saying he was just as bad in 2020 as now. They were saying he was bad and he's going to get worse. That was true but apparently the entirety of the PTB put together a conspiracy to tell us we were wrong about that.

Considering that we figure these people to mostly be incompetents they managed to hold that conspiracy together for years.

Most of the violence in 68 was anti war stuff. those people were tossing bombs left and right for a couple of years and it really didn't have much to do with the election. You couldn't pick up a newspaper without reading about the latest bombing of a recruiting station or federal office building or an anti war riot somewhere in the US. Oh and we had massive race riots in the eastern US at the same time also but most people claim there were fueled by the anti war protestor groups.

I personally believe there is a pretty high chance of assassination. I'm not just venting spleen; I mean it. And the sounder the VP, the better, because (a) they have less incentive to kill Trump, and (b) we can handle it better if they try.

My choices would be DeSantis or Sara Sanders.
