White House reveals who's running country with Joe Biden, 81, on second week of vacation
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] The White House on Monday revealed who is running the country with President Joe Biden on his second week of vacation.

'You know better than that,' National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby scolded the reporter who asked who was running the country.

'The president is on vacation, but you can never unplug and from a job like that. Nor does he try to,' Kirby said in a zoom briefing with reporters.

'He's very much in command,' he noted of Biden.

He pointed out Biden spoke with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday and talked to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday as proof the president is working.
Did he say anything sensible and substantive, or was he doing the dementia mumble thing again?
Biden, 81, is at his beach home in Rehoboth, Delaware, after spending a week at a private 8,000 acre ranch in Santa Ynez, Calif. He is scheduled to return to the White House after Labor Day weekend.

Vice President Kamala Harris is in Washington D.C. with nothing on her public schedule until Wednesday, when she heads to Georgia for a two-day bus trip to campaign in the state.

#3 The great pretending is becoming pure farce, as Jojo doesn't seem to even try to act Presidential during his juiced-semi lucid moments.

The White House has become a hospice with great security, travel and medical benefits. That no one really cares that we have no actual functioning President is a testament to how deep the cancer of power and partisanship has gone in the national body politic.
