The author criticizes these media organizations for their motivations, suggesting they aim to protect their interests and promote a new book that documents their role in covering up Biden&#8217;s health issues. Key points include:<\/p>\n<p>1. **Media Complicity**: The piece argues that mainstream media has consistently downplayed Biden&#8217;s health problems while being quick to criticize other political figures, emphasizing examples of Biden&#8217;s physical frailty, such as stumbling at public events and his responses to crises.<\/p>\n<p>2. **Political and Security Concerns**: The writer suggests that Biden&#8217;s evident decline poses national security risks and encourages adversaries, like China, to be more aggressive.<\/p>\n<p>3. **Specific Incidents**: Multiple examples are provided, including Biden forgetting names, his falls while boarding Air force One, and being managed during public engagements, all of which the author claims highlight his cognitive decline.<\/p>\n<p>4. **Critique of Media Narratives**: The article criticizes outlets like NPR for attempting to mitigate the perception of Biden&#8217;s frailty while previously attacking the age of other leaders, illustrating a perceived double standard in media coverage.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the piece seeks to connect Biden&#8217;s cognitive state with broader implications for U.S. leadership and international relations, portraying him as unfit for command amid what the author considers a significant presidential scandal.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>After spending years calling Americans crazy for believing their own eyes and ears, the nation&rsquo;s propaganda press are finally willing to admit that Joe Biden has been suffering from serious physical and mental decline. <\/p>\n<p>Of course, these self-professed &ldquo;journalists&rdquo; aren&rsquo;t doing this out of the kindness of their hearts or some feeling of the need to repent from their dishonest ways. Instead, their &ldquo;brave&rdquo; and &ldquo;noble&rdquo; effort is designed to help their hacktastic friends <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/05\/22\/democrats-dont-get-the-benefit-of-the-doubt-on-bidens-health-86-or-anything-else\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hawk their new book<\/a>, which promises a behind-the-scenes look at the cover-up they all participated in.<\/p>\n<p><strong>[READ:[READ:<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/05\/20\/bidens-late-cancer-diagnosis-exposes-democrats-and-the-media-as-legitimate-national-security-risks\/\">Biden&rsquo;s Late Cancer Diagnosis Exposes Democrats And The Media As Legitimate National Security Risks<\/a>]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But unlike the country&rsquo;s irreparably broken media, many Americans weren&rsquo;t fooled. They, including The Federalist, recognized early on that Sleepy Joe was incapable of serving as commander-in-chief and likely wasn&rsquo;t the one running the administration. <\/p>\n<p>So, as further proof that the media was totally complicit in the Biden cover-up, here&rsquo;s a handful of the many examples of The Federalist&rsquo;s reporting on what has arguably been the biggest presidential scandal in modern U.S. history.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Kamala Harris&rsquo; Role in the Cover-Up<\/h2>\n<p>Federalist Senior Contributor Chuck DeVore <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/08\/28\/kamala-harris-unserious-foreign-policy-is-a-national-security-threat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">called out<\/a> Vice President Kamala Harris for being complicit in helping the administration hide Biden&rsquo;s decline in the months leading up to the 2024 election. He argued, &ldquo;Harris is fully complicit in the administration&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/harris-unserious-foreign-policy-is-a-national-security-threat\/\" title=\"Harris&#039; Unserious Foreign Policy Is A National Security Threat\">manifold national security failures<\/a>, including the most dangerous threat &mdash; covering up the extent of Biden&rsquo;s mental decline.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<h2>2. NPR Runs Defense for Biden&rsquo;s Frailty<\/h2>\n<p>In August 2023, weeks after Biden took a dive at that year&rsquo;s Air Force Academy graduation ceremony, Federalist Staff Writer Jordan Boyd <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/08\/31\/npr-moves-its-goal-posts-on-senility-from-trashing-trumps-age-to-defending-bidens-decline\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">highlighted<\/a> how taxpayer-funded <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/npr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NPR<\/a> attempted to sanitize the Biden administration&rsquo;s &ldquo;permanent switch from the 18-foot staircase traditionally used by presidents boarding Air Force One to a smaller set of steps.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;NPR tried to reassure Americans that their commander in chief, who has suffered several notable spills in recent months,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2022\/09\/28\/1125591160\/biden-jackie-walorski\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">forgets certain people have died<\/a>, and speaks in lies sprinkled with gibberish, is just taking normal precautions to avoid &lsquo;bad optics,&#8217;&rdquo; Boyd wrote.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Air Force Academy Stumble<\/h2>\n<p>Speaking of Biden&rsquo;s tumble at the 2023 Air Force Academy commencement, The Federalist <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/06\/05\/corporate-media-trips-over-itself-trying-to-downplay-bidens-faceplant\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">exposed<\/a> the media for attempting to run interference for the then-president&rsquo;s fragility. <\/p>\n<h2>4. Age Matters for Republicans<\/h2>\n<p>Days after the November 2020 presidential election, The Federalist <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2020\/11\/09\/media-77-is-not-too-old-for-joe-biden-but-its-way-too-old-for-trump-in-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a> on how Washington Post hacktivists attempted to espouse fake concerns about Donald Trump&rsquo;s age in the lead up to the contest &mdash; all while dismissing concerns about<strong> <\/strong>Biden&rsquo;s age and the Delaware Democrat&rsquo;s obvious decline.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Easter Bunny Bouncer<\/h2>\n<p>Throughout American history, there&rsquo;ve been presidents who have been shot, assassinated, and have honorably served in the military. But how many of them can say they&rsquo;ve been wrangled by a giant Easter Bunny?<\/p>\n<p>The Federalist&rsquo;s Kylee Griswold <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/04\/19\/whos-in-charge-of-america-right-now-because-it-isnt-the-man-getting-wrangled-by-a-giant-easter-bunny\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">underscored<\/a> the absurdity of Biden&rsquo;s giant furry friend (no, not Hunter) playing man-to-man defense during the 2022 White House egg roll to stop the dementia-riddled president from saying something stupid to the press. In April 2022, Griswold wrote, &ldquo;This all raises the obvious and alarming question: Who is in charge of the greatest country on Earth right now? Because it sure as heck isn&rsquo;t Joe Biden.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2>6. Lackadaisical Maui Fire Response<\/h2>\n<p>Following the devastating Hawaii fires that ravaged the island of Maui in summer 2023, Biden had to be effectively <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/08\/22\/bidens-lazy-response-to-catastrophes-like-hawaii-fire-proves-he-is-a-liability\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dragged<\/a> from his luxurious vacation to address the massive humanitarian crisis. The Federalist <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/08\/22\/bidens-lazy-response-to-catastrophes-like-hawaii-fire-proves-he-is-a-liability\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a> on how, even after landing on the ruined island, the puppet-in-chief babbled on incoherently about a &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/03\/08\/heres-the-full-list-of-every-lie-joe-biden-has-told-as-president-part-three\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">small<\/a>&rdquo; kitchen fire at one of his residences years prior and threw out a few lackluster jokes.<\/p>\n<h2>7. The Hur Report<\/h2>\n<p>The Federalist <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/hur-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/robert-hur\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">extensively<\/a> throughout 2023 and 2024 on the investigation by Special Counsel Robert Hur, which confirmed what many Americans already knew: that Biden was (and still is) senile. <\/p>\n<p>Despite <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/02\/09\/democrats-spun-bidens-classified-docs-as-six-items-but-special-counsel-report-reveals-it-was-300-plus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">evidence<\/a> suggesting the Delaware Democrat mishandled classified materials, federal prosecutors <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/02\/08\/prosecutors-decline-to-charge-elderly-biden-over-poor-memory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">declined<\/a> to bring charges<strong> <\/strong>because they believed &ldquo;Biden would likely present himself to the jury, as he did during our interview with him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2>8. A Welcome Mat for Chinese Aggression<\/h2>\n<p>In June 2023, The Federalist <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/06\/06\/bidens-declining-mental-acuity-is-a-big-welcome-mat-to-red-chinas-aggression\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">highlighted<\/a> how Biden&rsquo;s obvious decline incentivized communist China to ramp up its aggressive behavior towards the U.S. and its partners in the Indo-Pacific. As I previously wrote in these pages, &ldquo;Every public display of Biden&rsquo;s fragility is another indication to Xi Jinping and the CCP that America lacks the effective leadership necessary to confront China&rsquo;s growing ambitions.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2>9. Who&rsquo;s Lloyd Austin?<\/h2>\n<p>In March 2021, The Federalist <a href=\"https:\/\/thefdrlst.wpengine.com\/2021\/03\/09\/joe-biden-cant-remember-who-his-secretary-of-defense-is\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a> on how Biden seemingly forgot the name of his defense secretary. <\/p>\n<h2>10. Biden&rsquo;s Air Force One Tumble<\/h2>\n<p>When Biden unexpectedly fell (multiple times) while climbing the stairs to Air Force One in March 2021, The Federalist was there to <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/03\/19\/joe-biden-is-our-geriatric-president-and-he-should-embrace-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">expose<\/a> the Biden administration and the media for being complicit in covering up the president&rsquo;s frailty.<\/p>\n<h2>11. 2022 Blunders<\/h2>\n<p>Following another year filled with moments of confusion, The Federalist <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/12\/30\/bidens-top-10-blunders-of-2022-that-prove-hes-in-cognitive-decline\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">compiled<\/a> a list of &ldquo;Biden&rsquo;s Top 10 Blunders Of 2022 That Prove He&rsquo;s In Cognitive Decline.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2>12. Sleepy Joe Takes a Nap<\/h2>\n<p>In October 2022, The Federalist&rsquo;s Elle Purnell <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/10\/24\/joe-biden-is-literally-falling-asleep-on-the-job\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">documented<\/a> how Biden appeared to doze off during an interview with left-wing MSNBC. She further emphasized how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/issa-congress-must-probe-big-tech-media-collusion-in-shutting-down-hunter-biden-story-before-election\/\" title=\"Issa: Congress Must Probe Big Tech, ... Collusion in Shutting Down Hunter Biden Story Before Election\">corporate media attempted<\/a> to downplay the incident.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Biden&rsquo;s track record notwithstanding, regime-loyal media were happy to bury the story of his most recent televised gaffe, ignoring the president&rsquo;s cognitive deterioration after spending four years screeching about his predecessor&rsquo;s mental state based on far flimsier evidence,&rdquo; Purnell wrote.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>      Shawn Fleetwood is a staff writer for The Federalist and a graduate of the University of Mary Washington.
