Biden Advisors Threaten To "Beat The Shit Out Of" Staffers Who Don't Keep Quiet
2024-07-13
Democracy dies under marching Biden Boots, yeow!
[ZH] It’s weird seeing the media pile on with the ’scoops’ about what exactly is going on behind the scenes with Biden’s panicking entourage, but this one takes it to another level.

CNN reports that a prominent Democrat has claimed Biden’s advisors have threatened White House staffers, saying they will "beat the shit out" of anyone who says anything about Biden’s health that runs contrary to their narrative.

CNN anchor Jake Tapper spoke with reporter MJ Lee in a bizarre segment in which she revealed the claims.

Lee noted "You know, we talked to a lot of folks who said, ’Of course we know that he has aged. Of course, we had seen some signs, especially over the last year, of his decline in terms of his physical stamina, his mental clarity.’ But that version of the president that we saw on the debate stage, they said was basically unrecognizable."

She continued, "what my colleagues and I have really reported on is there is a lot of anger and the blame that is being placed on the inner circle of advisers and family members around the president and what these people say is this really painstakingly choreographed and stage managed daily operations at the White House around the president that is set up, specifically designed to prevent the public from often seeing the president in these extended unscripted settings."

"And one thing that many of the folks that we spoke with that they are so furious about is this idea that when people have gone to these inner circle of advisers around the president to express some of these concerns, that they were not taken seriously or really brushed aside," Lee added.

Then came the kicker.

"This is what one top Democrat told me, they said, "Everyone who expresses any level of suspicion or contrary views, they call everyone, and they beat the shit out of them and say stay on message," Lee asserted.

Lee also claimed that the source said members of Biden’s family have also been warned not to step out of line.

The comments come after multiple reports, many in the New York Times, citing insiders who say Biden is completely out of it.

Tapper also cited yet another longtime Biden advisor, claiming he received the following text message:

The CNN anchor took some flak for suddenly and strangely being on board with the ’Biden’s brain is fried’ angle after years of ignoring it.

#16  This is appropriate: Washington Post Coverage

I call it his The Wall speech, as it mirrors the final act of that movie.

Look at me Wa Post, look at me! You are the political opposition now!

#14  These people need to re-watch Biden's 'Pink Floyd The Wall' speech again with this 'new' context.

#11  Clooney and Snuffleuppagus thought they were big enough to have an opinion and they got knocked about digitally. Be a dang shame if an unknown staffer were returning to their car after a night at the bar and got shot but not robbed.

#8  What has prevented the dam from breaking previously is the unwillingness of any news organization to publish what they were being told. The red light went green. What if these are not new leaks and the journalists are just revealing what they should have told us previously? In that case getting roughed up by Mayor Pete will have no effect.

#5  The Biden crowd is so desperate, they've asked for small donations from me, because
you have previously supported Democrats, and your commitment will help us win again in 2024.

Funny, I don't seem to remember previously supporting the Dems. But I am old and probably don't remember.
