Throughout American history, the mental fitness of our commanders-in-chief has been paramount to national security and constitutional governance. From Woodrow Wilson’s stroke to Ronald Reagan’s later years, presidential health has rightfully faced intense scrutiny – until now.
For years, conservatives have raised alarm bells about President Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities, only to be dismissed by mainstream media outlets as partisan critics. Those concerns, once labeled as “dangerous disinformation,” have become impossible to ignore.
Meanwhile, the protection of our constitutional republic depends on having a fully capable executive at the helm. When that capacity comes into question, it becomes not just a political issue but also a matter of national security.
A bombshell Wall Street Journal report dated December 19, 2024, has confirmed what many Americans have long suspected. White House staffers have been actively managing a “diminished” President Joe Biden throughout his entire term. The situation has become increasingly untenable as his presidency draws to a close.
Biden Struggles Through Jimmy Carter Speech
The latest evidence came Sunday night when Biden struggled through a mere nine-minute speech honoring the late President Jimmy Carter. Biden’s delivery was marked by persistent coughing and notably sluggish speech patterns, reinforcing growing concerns about his cognitive decline.
“The president’s health has been back in the news since The Wall Street Journal published a story on how aides dealt with a ‘diminished’ president throughout his entire term,” the report revealed. It went on to detail how staffers would have to repeat basic instructions to Biden – including where to exit a stage.
Remember when questioning Biden’s cognitive ability was labeled “disinformation?” Funny how that works.

Biden Aides Scramble To Manage His Decline
Perhaps most telling is the desperate attempt to manage the decline. Jeffrey Katzenberg, who co-chaired Biden’s doomed 2024 campaign, was tasked with finding a voice coach to improve what the Journal described as the president’s “fading warble.” This extraordinary measure speaks volumes about the behind-the-scenes crisis management taking place.
CBS’ Chief Legal Correspondent Jan Crawford didn’t mince words about the media’s failure.
“We should have much more forcefully questioned whether he was fit for office for another four years,” Crawford stated. “It could have changed the scope of the entire election.”

If you’re wondering why this sounds familiar, it’s because conservative media has been sounding this alarm for years – only to be dismissed as conspiracy theorists.
The Wall Street Journal’s revelations paint a troubling picture of a White House in crisis management mode. Indeed, staff members repeatedly having to provide basic directional instructions to the president raises serious questions about who is actually making critical decisions affecting American lives.
Conservative commentator Cal Thomas highlighted the media’s complicity on Fox News.
“They covered up for Biden’s mental acuity decline,” Thomas stated, pointing out how mainstream outlets ignored clear warning signs that conservative media consistently reported.
Devastating Constitutional Implications
This systematic failure of journalistic oversight has serious constitutional implications. The 25th Amendment exists precisely for situations where a president’s capacity comes into question, yet meaningful discussion of this constitutional safeguard has been notably absent from mainstream coverage.
The White House continues to deflect, with spokesperson Andrew Bates refusing to substantiate the Journal’s reporting. Instead, they point to Biden’s “accomplished record” – a defense that notably sidesteps the core issue of his current cognitive capacity.
As Americans prepare for another critical election year, the question of presidential fitness looms larger than ever. The constitutional framework of our republic depends on having a fully capable executive, not one whose staff must manage his basic functions.
This crisis of leadership extends beyond partisan politics. When our commander-in-chief requires constant management and guidance for basic functions, it raises profound questions about national security and constitutional governance that demand immediate attention.
The American people deserve complete transparency about their president’s cognitive capacity. The media’s failure to properly scrutinize Biden’s decline represents not just a journalistic failure, but a threat to our democratic institutions.
As this crisis continues to unfold, one thing becomes crystal clear: the mainstream media’s role in downplaying or ignoring Biden’s cognitive decline will be remembered as one of the most significant failures of journalistic responsibility in modern American history.
Key Takeaways:
- White House staff actively managed Biden’s declining cognitive state while the media looked away.
- A constitutional crisis looms as questions arise about who’s really running the executive branch.
- Mainstream media’s deliberate silence represents a dangerous failure of journalistic duty.
- Conservative outlets were vindicated after years of reporting on Biden’s cognitive decline.
