Johnson Raises Concerns Over Biden's Mental Capacity

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has raised alarming concerns regarding President Joe Biden's mental state, following a private meeting where Biden appeared unaware of his own executive actions. Johnson recounted asking Biden about a recent executive order halting liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports to Europe, to which Biden responded that he had not signed such an order, despite it being enacted weeks earlier. This interaction left Johnson feeling that Biden was genuinely confused and not in charge, further questioning the decision-making processes within the White House. Johnson expressed sympathy for Biden's age but emphasized the seriousness of the implications for national security. The Speaker highlighted his struggle to secure a meeting with Biden over national security concerns, which took weeks due to Biden's staff's excuses. Ultimately, Johnson's account has fueled ongoing discussions about Biden's cognitive abilities and leadership capacity as he approaches the end of his presidency.
