Mike Lee: Joe Biden Repeatedly Forgot Who My Wife Was Despite Repeatedly Meeting Her

He says the White House's praetorian "shielded" Biden from meeting with outsiders.

And the few times he met with people outside of his protective circle, he showed signs of serious memory loss.

He told Tucker Carlson he recognized in Biden the signs of Alzheimer's that he saw in his own mother.

"They kept him shielded, not only from the public and from non-friendly press, but also from members of Congress. Now, remember, look, I've been in the Senate for 13 and a half years. I've served while we've had three different presidents. You know Obama, [with] Biden as his vice president, and then, you know, Trump and now Biden as president. We have seen a lot more of other presidents," Lee continued.

The GOP senator detailed how both former Presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump were "very active" in interacting with lawmakers on the Hill. However, he highlighted that over Biden's term it "hardly happened," noting an interaction between the president and Lee's wife, Sharon Lee.
"With Biden, it hardly happens at all, like they shielded him from us. In some ways, my wife, I think this was in maybe the first half or the first quarter of 2022, went over to an event at the White House for Senate spouses hosted by the First Lady, who was herself a longtime member of the Senate spouses organization. While they were there, President Biden just kind of came wandering in. I think they were in one of the ballrooms," Lee said.
"She said, there was no secret service with him, no staff with him, he just kind of walked in. She said, instinctively, I just said, 'Oh, hello, Mr. President, it's good to see you,'" Lee continued. "He asked her, 'Do you work in the east wing?' And she said, 'No, no, Mr. President, I'm Sharon. Sharon Lee, Senator Mike Lee's wife.'"
Lee stated how Biden had sworn him into the Senate twice before leaving his vice presidency within the Obama administration, leaving his wife to believe at the time that the interactions "would take care of it." Despite the history between the two, Lee said his wife relayed that Biden had "looked confused" and asked again if she worked in the West Wing.
"Moments later, someone came up to one of the other Senate spouses, I think it was a Democrat, and had a phone in her hand and said, 'Hey, my brother in law is a big fan. It's his birthday, will you say hi to him.' This is Biden's signature move," Lee said.
"But this woman handed him the phone. It rang. The woman's brother in law answered, 'Hello,' and then he got a confused look on his face, held out the phone, hung it up, and handed the phone back," Lee continued. "Now that for Joe Biden, is very significant, very significant."
"And this is [the] sitting president of the United States," Carlson noted, to which Lee agreed as he said he believed the interaction happened a "little more than two years ago."
Lee then called out how he began to "see little snippets," leading Carlson to then jump in to say, "That's a big snippet!"

22 Lee tells another story, even more damning, where Biden just wanders into the room where the wives are meeting, and one of the Democrat Senator wives asks Joe to speak with one of their constituents who was going through something or other.

I think some people may have forgotten, but Lee was one of those Senators that the FBI "Leaked" the full, complete home addresses of a few years ago, in an attempt to stir up an assassination attempt.

He whines and whines about how easy it is for the Democrats to do anything they want and no matter if the GOP were to take the Executive, Senate and House would be impotent - just like they were when they couldn't even do the simple lay-up shot of getting rid of the odious Obamacare.

He says the election is "critically important", but the GOP scam is to just stand around like innocent bystanders and let the Left run roughshod over We The People.

They are the retards who video the beating and murder of someone then condemn the killers rather than stepping in and stopping it from happening in the first place.

Lee even admitted that his role in the 100 member Senate is to simply write "sternly written letters" rather than abolishing the violating agency. Reining in the agencies aren't even on the table.

86 "I think the cruelest thing about dementia or Alzheimer's is that the person knows it's happening to them at the beginning, and they are frightened."

Yep - my mom developed Parkinson's years ago. For a long time it was just tremors; now it's marked physical decline and - worst of all - nearly constant hallucinations. She has moments when she realizes that she's "seeing" things that aren't real, and then two minutes later she's having a conversation with an invisible person. I told my wife that if I ever get like that, feel free to screw a muzzle brake into my ear while I'm sleeping and give me a 5.56 mm lobotomy.

I went with the .460 since it could chamber and fire .45LC, 454 Casul and, of course, the more powerful .460 Magnum. (e=mv²

You don't fire the .500 or the .460, you detonate it.

Yes. Dimensionally the same as the .500 S&W Magnum

My petite spouse was plinking with the .45LC at the range when the hilarity of her size to the hand cannon drew the interest of a dude in a neighboring booth who wanted to "experience" the .460

So I loaded the .460 and told him that this is a serious round and he should stack his wrist to avoid muzzle flip. He promptly put the hammer into the middle of his forehead.

While he was recovering, the wife was shooting .45LC from the same gun. He recovered and asked for a second chance, not noticing the blood slowly dripping from his forehead. "Sure", loaded another .460 and cautioned him again. Broke his glasses on the second try.

It was VERY hard not to laugh.

The short barrel version for Alaskan grizzly defense probably, but the scoped hunting version the problem isn't the recoil (which is magnum) but the concussion and the escaping gasses around where the cylinder meets the barrel.

I can bring one to the TxMoMe if anyone cares to find out.

I was referring to the Big Horn lever action carbine in .500 S&W.

No, I didn't get to fire one. But I did see a gent shooting one at the Texas City Municipal Range.

No barrel/cylinder gap. The recoil was simply physics of action/reaction, and the attendant muzzle blast.

IMPRESSIVE recoil impulse, as evident by the effect on his torso and cheek-weld.

And for what it's worth, a 240 gr. .44 Mag isn't much fun out of a Marlin or Henry lever, either. Those, I have shot. I find the M-44 Mosin more tolerable to shoot, than those.

Garland, Mayorkas, Yellen and Obama. Obama had to use loyalists but not from his administration. He tried putting Garland at SCOTUS to strengthen the liberal hand, so he picked him for AG. The big question is not just Mike Lee, everyone in DC must have known that Biden was a vegetable and are complicit in the cover up. So, I assume, they all know the agenda and the players, and have done nothing to stop it or let us know. So noble, this GOP.

MAYBE he realized that if he kept up his milquetoast 'bipartisan' nonsense up he was finished because they were trying to get rid of him, and his only refuge was actual conservatives.
