Bidengate

“The cover-up is usually worse than the crime.”  Richard Nixon was neither involved nor apprised-of the break-in at the Watergate, but in participating in the cover-up, he strayed over the political line into an area of illegality, leading to a threat of impeachment and his resignation. If he had shopped his staff at, for example, the tense and heated press conference on the evening of 26 October 1973 (see main image), he probably would have survived.

Now let us consider what may rival the Watergate scandal: what looks more and more like a massive gaslighting operation to convince America, and the world, that President Biden was as sharp as a tack. It is now widely accepted – and was for a long time before then, abundantly clear – that Joe Biden was not sentient, for his entire term – that section 4 of the 25th Amendment would have been enlivened had the President’s advisors, and the media, told the truth about his mental and physical impairments.

The mainstream press and legacy media have been both traduced and in a flap about how they looked the other way on doddering old Joe. But there’s a bigger issue.

What is coming out, finally, about 2021-2025?  In that time, we had the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal which, surprise, surprise, wasn’t Trump’s fault – that the Democratic Party was importing millions of voters over the Mexican border – that the civil and criminal charges against Trump, and attempts to wipe-him-off ballot papers for 2024, were all confected – that the Russian collusion impeachment was one giant fraud – that the FBI covered-up and destroyed evidence of the White House cocaine incident, the January 5 DNC pipe bomber, the murder of Ashlee Babbitt, and the leak of draft Supreme Court judgments in the Dodd abortion case – turned-out that men could, apparently, be women – that elected officials, of all political stripes, somehow became multi-millionaires – that billions of dollars allotted for charitable and foreign aid purposes, and authorised by Congress for infrastructure, disappeared, having never left Washington DC – that white and Asian and Jewish lives don’t seem to matter in some circles, including University campuses – that Kamala Harris was not a joyous saviour of the USA – that Covid-19 came from the Wuhan Virology Lab – that the Pfizer Covid vaccine did not prevent infection or spread of the disease – that vaccine and mask mandates and school closures did more harm than good – that inflation turned-out to not be ‘transitory’ – that sequestering the yachts of Russian oligarchs did not stop the Ukraine War – that cash-free bail did not in fact alleviate crime in major cities – that Hunter Biden was not a highly-qualified energy consultant – that the nation did not need a ‘Disinformation Governance Board’ to police thought and speech – that Biden either lied about not pardoning his entire family or someone arranged it for him by auto pen – and that the promise, in early 2024, that the US would provide a floating pier to supply food and medicine from off the coast of Gaza, was not credible…We could go on…

It has been discovered that thousands of pardons (stemming from the submission of thousands of clemency requests) and Executive Orders were signed by use of the auto pen. President Obama began regular use of the auto-pen, including a portable one when he was in country or overseas. President Trump used it from time to time in his first term. However, President Biden never used the autopen until 13 June 2022, and from then on he used it more than 2/3rds of the time, mostly signing documents personally at ‘live’ events.

In January 2024, the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, asked the then President: “Sir, why did you pause LNG exports to Europe?”  He pointed out that his State of Louisiana suffered as a result, and that the pause made Europe more dependent on Russian oil and gas. “I didn’t do that,” Biden replied. He had, three weeks earlier – or rather, an Executive Order had been issued to that effect. Did the President forget? Or did someone else issue the Order? If the latter, was that with at least the tacit direction/approval of the President?

In the movie Dave, where Kevin Kline’s character is a dead-ringer for the stroke-stricken sitting President, the Chief of Staff instals the lookalike as Commander-in-Chief, while he busily implements executive policy.

And in 1919, President Wilson suffered a stroke and his wife, Edith, and his personal physician, concealed the extent of his disability. 

Did something like that happen in 2021-2025?

We are learning that a shadow government (not the Senate-confirmed cabinet, who hardly ever met) may have run the country in Joe’s term. The suspects: Mike Donilan, Anita Dunn, Ron Klain, Bruce Reed, Steve Ricchetti, (see below), Susan Rice, Anthony Bernal, and of course, Barack Obama, Jill Biden and Hunter Biden, possibly with accessorial liability on the part of the President’s cabinet, medical team, and his P.R. flacks.

So who are these alleged Shadows?

Mike Donilan, longtime advisor to Democratic politicians, graduated from the Catholic La Salle Academy in bluest-of-blue Rhode Island, and advised Joe Biden on his 2020 campaign and his 2024 re-election campaign before he dropped out of the race. During Joe’s term, he was Senior Advisor to the President. In a letter sent to Donilan by the Congressional Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, the following is asserted (fn. omitted):

“As Senior Advisor to former President Biden and described as “one of Biden’s core inner circle advisers,” the Committee is interested in obtaining your account of his mental decline. You were reportedly responsible for erecting a wall between the former president and senators “to shield Biden from bad information.” Recently, during an event at Harvard University, you displayed your willingness to speak about the former president’s cognition but you reportedly “denounced claims that the president’s acuity and judgment declined.” The scope of your responsibilities—both official and otherwise—and personal interactions within the Oval Office cannot go without investigation. If White House staff carried out a strategy lasting months or even years to hide the chief executive’s condition—or to perform his duties—Congress may need to consider a legislative response.”

Anita Dunn

From Deep Blue Maryland, a major Democrat power broker and Obama insider who served in both Obama’s and Biden’s terms as Director/Senior Advisor of Communications, Ms. Dunn left the post almost straight after Biden’s catastrophic debate with Donald Trump. The Committee’s letter to Dunn stated, inter alia, (fn. omitted):

“You served as former President Biden’s “most senior communications adviser.” Former President Biden confided in you extensively over the past decade. The Committee seeks to understand your observations of former President Biden’s mental acuity and health as one of his closest advisors.”

Ron Klain

A graduate of Georgetown U. and Harvard, Ron was Chief of Staff to VP Gore and VP Biden and then Chief of Staff (the role regarded as the 2nd most powerful job in the U.S.) to President Biden from 2021 to 2023. The letter to him read:

“You served as Chief of Staff for former President Biden. Before departing the White House in 2023, you had been by former President Biden’s side “for more than three decades.” You returned to the former president’s side in 2024 to aid his campaign and prepare him for the June 27, 2024, debate with President Donald Trump. According to an interview, you cut short the debate prep “due to the president’s fatigue and lack of familiarity with the subject matter” and said that the former president “didn’t really understand what his argument was on inflation.””

Bruce Reed

Princeton graduate Bruce was speechwriter for Al Gore and served in the Clinton administration before becoming Chief of Staff to VP Biden, succeeding Ron Klain. On Biden’s election as President, he was touted to head the Office of Management and Budget. In retrospect, that would have been a good thing as he was (reputedly) a fiscal conservative. However, instead Reed became joint Deputy Chief of Staff to Joe Biden. The Committee’s letter to him reads in part:

“The Committee is interested in obtaining your account of former President Biden’s decline, as you were reportedly one of the five White House staffers who were “effectively family” to the former President. You were described as “nearly always by [former President] Biden’s side on the road” and one of the key staffers in the inner circle. The scope of your responsibilities—both official and otherwise—and personal interactions within the Oval Office cannot go without investigation.”

Steve Ricchetti

Both a lobbyist and kingmaker, Steve has served the Clinton and Obama administrations, and advised Biden from early in Obama’s term. In 2021-2025, he was Counsel to the President. Like Mike Donilan, he was pivotal in the announcement Joe was dropping out of the re-election effort. The letter to him states:

“As Counselor to former President Biden, you served as one of his closest advisors. According to a report, you were part of a group of insiders who implemented a strategy to minimize “the president’s age-related struggles.””

Does this Congressional Investigation look like payback? We reckon so. Perhaps it is well to recall what the Democratic machine threw at Trump. But an investigation is also necessary. Whilst it picks at a scab, clarification is required about what everyone knew, when they knew it, and when the President’s brain melted completely. It would be well to make full disclosure to this investigation, perhaps under terms of legal immunity. After all, the cover-up is usually worse than the crime.
