New WH Aides Reveal-Biden, 81, has difficulty functioning outside of 6-hour window-alarming report-Almost as if Jilly Needs Another Nudge!
[NYPost] Octogenarian President Biden has difficulty functioning outside a six-hour window of daylight, according to an alarming new report.

The 81-year-old commander in chief is prone to absent-minded gaffes and fatigue outside of the hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. or while traveling abroad, White House aides told Axios in a bizarre attempt to spin his disastrous debate performance.

During the 90-minute trainwreck of a presidential debate — which kicked off five hours after the president’s peak performance window, at 9 p.m. — Biden often appeared vacant or slack-jawed, and on several occasions froze mid-thought, misspoke, or struggled to form coherent sentences.

Biden reportedly struggles with verbal miscues and fatigue outside the hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The shocking late-night performance escalated fears about whether Biden is capable of serving another four years. He would be aged 86 by the end of his second term.

Biden attempted to quell voters’ concerns about his mental acuity with a much more energetic speech at a rally Friday in Raleigh, N.C. — during his more preferred time frame in the early afternoon.

Courtesy of Anon1, a short video from Dr. John Campbell:
Recognising Lewy Body Dementia: mask-like stare, frozen body movements, frequent falls, confusion. Sufferers need early recognition as they may be a danger to self and others
Dr Campbell doesnt mention Biden he just outlines the symptoms to recognise, with compassion and empathy.

Danger to self and others is the phrase that stuck with me
[YouTube] Lewy body dementias (LBD), 1.4 million in the United States.

Presence of Lewy bodies

Typically progresses rapidly

Lewy Body Dementia Association

We understand that though many families are affected by this disease, few individuals and medical professionals are aware of the symptoms, diagnostic criteria, or even that LBD exists.

Lewy body dementias (LBD) are the second most common form of degenerative dementia.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is most common.

LBD can have three common presentations

Some start with a movement disorder leading to the diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease and later develop dementia.

This is diagnosed as Parkinson’s disease dementia.

Others start with a cognitive/memory disorder that may be mistaken for AD,

leading to the diagnosis of ‘dementia with Lewy bodies’ (DLB).

A small group will first present with neuropsychiatric symptoms, hallucinations, behavioral problems, difficulty with complex mental activities

The most common symptoms of LBD include:

Impaired thinking, such as loss of executive function (planning, processing information), memory, or the ability to understand visual information

Fluctuations in cognition, attention, or alertness

Problems with movement, including tremors, stiffness, slowness, and difficulty walking

Visual hallucinations (seeing things that are not present)

The symptoms of LBD are treatable

Early and accurate diagnosis of LBD is essential

Early and accurate diagnosis is important because LBD patients may react to certain medications differently than AD or PD patients.

A variety of drugs, including some dementia meds and some antiparkinsonian medications, can worsen LBD symptoms.

(LBD affects an individual’s brain differently than other dementias).

Treatment should always be monitored by a physician and may include prescriptive and other therapies, exercise, diet, sleep habits, changes in behavior, and daily routines.

Individuals and families living with LBD should not have to face this disease alone.

LBD affects every aspect of a person – their mood, the way they think, and the way they move.

The combination of cognitive, motor and behavioral symptoms creates a highly challenging set of demands for continuing care.

Physician education is urgently needed.

More research is urgently needed.

Research needs include tools for early diagnoses, such as screening questionnaires, biomarkers, neuroimaging techniques, and more effective therapies.

Currently, there is no specific test to diagnose LBD.

#1 Well, during the Obama's 8 years some of us began to suspect that POTUS doesn't actually control the Mandarinate. During Trump's tenure we've seen that POTUS CAN'T control the Mandarinate.

#2 
QUESTION: As we know, the DOJ refused to indict Biden for his 20+ years of illegal retention of classified files Left in a house garage. Which was rented out to Chinese Nationals, no less by Hunter. The reason cited was age related issues.

Now we have the State & National Democrat Party leaders in a panic, and taking steps to dump Biden for 2024. Why? Because of what we have all clearly seen for the last 3+ years. A president with a serious failed Mental State.

So Congress (R's, Rino's & D's and LSD's) what happened to the 25th Amendment?

Is political power and the $$M y'all skim, more important than the safe constitutional operation of the United States and protection of WE THE PEOPLE?


Either way
It seems History again repeats itself. Just like the Woodrow Wilson Stroke situation in later 1919. We again have the President's wife and others actually running the US Government.

Final Question:
Should those, running the shadow government, be arrested?

NN2N1,

I absolutely believe right now that DOCTOR Jill is cosplaying Edith Galt Wilson, cheerfully aided and abetted by the WH staff - the Cabinet is completely aimless right now, no one is at the helm, and the only thought and priority is re-election. The DNC is behaving like the late Empire Romans who have just found out the Vandals are inbound. Congress is hiding out the best they can, even though they are faced with the most obvious case for the 25th Amendment we've seen yet.

The President of the United States is sundowning, something I saw at terrifyingly close range when my father reached his final illness. If a crisis hits now, we are in deep, deep trouble. We need to be ready for President Harris, possibly as early as this week.

#10 "Staffing at the Biden White House seemed to support what this fact implied — that Biden’s first term was Obama’s third. Susan Rice, Neera Tanden, Samantha Power, John Kerry, Antony Blinken, Robert Malley, Wendy Sherman, John Podesta, Anita Dunn, and Bob Bauer — from domestic to foreign policy to political operatives, the Biden administration has been a reformulation of the Obama world. When the former president visited the White House, footage captured staffers crowding around him as President Biden wandered, vacantly, through the crowd."

That means Obama.

#17 And Now-NYT Today

"Biden’s Family Tells Him to Keep Fighting as They Huddle at Camp David"

"One of the strongest voices imploring Mr. Biden to resist pressure to drop out was his son Hunter Biden, whom the president has long leaned on for advice, said one of the people informed about the discussions, who, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity to share internal deliberations. Hunter Biden wants Americans to see the version of his father that he knows — scrappy and in command of the facts — rather than the stumbling, aging president Americans saw on Thursday night."
