The media conspiracy of collusion over Biden’s health is a national disgrace
“Of all the horrid, hideous notes of woe,” wrote my favorite English poet, Lord Byron, “Sadder than owl-songs or the midnight blast; Is that portentous phrase, ‘I told you so.'”
Or, to put those words in modern-day American vernacular: Nobody likes a smart-ass Monday morning quarterback.
But sometimes, the words “I told you so” need to be said to expose those who saw all the same horrid, hideous signs of woe — and failed to speak up.
The US mainstream media are currently gorging on President Biden’s cognitive decline like ravenous hyenas on the freshly slain carcass of a decrepit old buffalo.
In fact, since his train-wreck debate debacle, the nation’s predominantly liberal-skewed, Democrat-defending journalists have competed with each other as to who can sound the most faux shocked, horrified, appalled, and furrowed-brow-uncomprehending about the physical and mental state of their president.
To which I say, REALLY?
THAT Biden was a surprise to you?
You all had NO idea the president of the United States is an incoherent, bumbling virtual zombie who shuffles at a snail’s pace and can barely remember what day it is?
With all due respect to my esteemed media colleagues, I call bulls–t.
They’ve all known the truth about Biden’s fast-deteriorating physical condition and clear early dementia for several years, because he’s been literally showing them the evidence on an almost daily basis.
When he’s not been face-planting on stage, tripping on the steps of Air Force One, or falling off his bike, he’s been forgetting names, talking incomprehensible gibberish, spewing blatant, easily provable falsehoods, and unleashing an endless cataract of verbal gaffes, some trivial like repeatedly calling his vice president “President Harris,” others way more serious and potentially dangerous like vowing a US military response if China invades Taiwan.
And unlike those who chose to look the other way or deny what they saw and heard, I have documented them in my weekly New York Post columns.
For example, in March 2022, after Biden made a series of crazy statements surrounding Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine that had to be instantly and disingenuously walked back by frantic White House aides — including one in which he said Russian President Vladimir Putin mustn’t be allowed to remain in power, which his people comically insisted didn’t mean he thought Putin shouldn’t stay in power, or regime change in Russia — I wrote: “Joe Biden is showing increasingly worrying signs of age-related cognitive decline. That’s a big problem for America, and the world, at such a critical time. As is the pathetic way that Democrats and much of the mainstream media keep trying to excuse his dreadful gaffes and talk up his supposedly commanding leadership. They’re so desperate to portray him as the calm, smart, wise, fact-driven antidote to his predecessor Donald Trump that they can’t see the shambolic train wreck right in front of their eyes. Or they see it but choose to ignore it.”
‘Joe Biden is showing increasingly worrying signs of age-related cognitive decline.’

See, I told you so.
And that was over two years ago.
Things have gotten increasingly worse since then.
In July 2022, while speaking about the Supreme Court’s historic overturning of Roe v. Wade, Biden read out a prompt line from staffers: “End of quote, repeat the line.”
As I wrote then: “It may be time to invoke the 25th Amendment on ailing, failing Biden if he deteriorates further.”
‘It may be time to invoke the 25th Amendment on ailing, failing Biden if he deteriorates further.’

He even started forgetting people had died.
In September 2022, he asked during another speech, “Jackie, are you here? Where’s Jackie?” as he searched the room for Jackie Walorski, an Indiana congresswoman who had been killed in a car accident the month before, and about whom he had issued a heartfelt statement of condolence to her family, saying how shocked and saddened that he was by her death.
In June 2023, two months after he announced he was running again for president, he ended a speech about gun control with the words: “God save the Queen, man.” But Queen Elizabeth II had passed nine months earlier, and he’d attended her funeral.
I wrote then: “President Biden is showing more and more signs of deteriorating cognitive and physical decline that isn’t just to do with his age. I know 90-year-olds who are twice as lucid and mobile as he is. No, the cold, hard, brutal reality is that Biden’s losing it, and he’s losing it while also trying to be president of the United States and de facto leader of the free world — one of the most relentlessly difficult, energy-sapping, and pressurized jobs imaginable.”
‘Biden is showing more and more signs of deteriorating cognitive and physical decline that isn’t just to do with his age. I know 90-year-olds who are twice as lucid and mobile as he is.’

That was a year ago, yet still most of the media pretended Joe Biden was still in full charge of his faculties. Nothing to see here, move along, focus on criminal Trump!
In September 2023, after a barrage of more cringe-worthy incidents and mishaps — including his claim to have been at Ground Zero the day after 9/11, when he didn’t go there until nine days after — I wrote: “This guy is still running the world’s No.1 superpower when he looks barely fit, either physically or cognitively, to run a bath. I honestly look at Biden now and genuinely wonder if he knows what day it is, let alone what he’s supposed to be doing. The sad, unnerving reality is that every time President Biden appears in public now, everyone — including his own White House staff — holds their breath to see what verbal mistake he’ll make, what vital US policy he might suddenly and dangerously rewrite, what indecipherable word salad he’ll spew, or just whether he can manage to stay on his own two feet.”
‘This guy is still running the world’s No.1 superpower when he looks barely fit, either physically or cognitively, to run a bath.’

That was 10 months ago!
Since then, he’s persisted in saying his war hero son Beau died serving his country in Iraq when, as everyone knows, he died from brain cancer in the US — and he preposterously claimed his uncle was shot down and possibly eaten by cannibals in Papua New Guinea when there is no evidence for either claim.
But to be fair to Biden, it’s hard to know if he was lying or genuinely delusional.
In December 2023, he responded to a reporter shouting, “Mr. President, why are you losing to Trump in the polls?” by saying: “You’re reading the wrong polls!”
One second later, there was a loud bang as a random vehicle smashed accidentally into his presidential motorcade.
I wrote: “Biden’s presidency has become a slow-moving car crash. What’s inexplicable is why the Democrats seem so hell-bent on standing by a leader who’s become not just a national but a global joke.”
‘What’s inexplicable is why the Democrats seem so hell-bent on standing by a leader who’s become not just a national but a global joke.’

That was six months ago.
In January 2024, after he embarrassingly struggled to say “America,” blathering, “Don’t mess with uhhiminauhwemerica,” I wrote: “Ultimately, and most damningly, all roads lead back to his advanced age and apparent senility. When you can’t even pronounce the name of the country you’re supposed to be leading, it’s time to go.”
‘Ultimately, and most damningly, all roads lead back to his advanced age and apparent senility.’

And last month, when Barack Obama had to lead him by the hand off a stage at a fundraiser in LA, I wrote: “The Obama/Biden arm-grab wasn’t just a senior moment, it was the moment everyone realized the president’s not fit for office. This is a once-very eloquent, fast-talking, firebrand senator who can now barely speak without talking gibberish, nor walk quicker than a snail on [sedatives], and who keeps falling over or forgetting what he’s supposed to be doing or saying.”
Then came the debate, and all the supine, fawning journalists — who’d bent over so far backwards to stop the American people from knowing the truth about their president that I’m only surprised they didn’t all suffer broken vertebrae — suddenly found their eyes, ears and voices.
So yes, I told you so.
As did others.
For years.
And for telling the truth, we were branded liars, and scaremongers, and partisan pro-Republican hacks trying to distract from the real story — Trump.
Now those who screamed loudest about Biden being fit and well for office are the same ones screaming the loudest about why he must quit the 2024 race because he’s unwell and unfit for office.
This is not because they give a damn about his health or want to finally be honest about it with the American people, but because they’ve belatedly realized that he can’t beat Donald Trump.
It’s been a repulsive conspiracy of collusion, and to borrow the words of Lord Byron, their crocodile tears are “horrid and hideous.”
