Reports Reveal Coordinated Cover-Up of Biden Cognitive Decline by Aides, Media

President Donald Trump has launched an investigation into who was effectively running the United States during Joe Biden's presidency, alleging that Biden's aides concealed his cognitive decline, a claim detailed in the new book "Original Sin" by journalists Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson. The book and related reports reveal a coordinated effort by Biden's inner circle and the Democratic Party to mask his mental and physical health issues, with the media often complicit in downplaying or ignoring signs of decline to protect the party's political interests. Critics argue that this cover-up involved deliberate misinformation, such as changing pronunciation of foreign capitals and stifling legitimate concerns, while also debating why Vice President Kamala Harris was not elevated sooner under the 25th Amendment. The National Republican Congressional Committee has accused House Democrats of witnessing and concealing Biden’s mental deterioration, further intensifying political attacks. Journalist Alex Thompson describes the cover-up as a mix of denial and calculated spin, driven by a belief that Biden was the lesser evil compared to Trump, which distorted democratic processes and public transparency. These revelations have sparked significant controversy as Trump’s administration seeks to capitalize on the fallout amid ongoing partisan tensions.
