Biden, 81, 'plans to make AG Merrick Garland fall-guy for bombshell special counsel report that branded him senile old man,' as aide releases panicked statement and insiders claim better MAKE-UP could help solve age issue

Joe Biden is planning to make his attorney general Merrick Garland the scapegoat for the bombshell report which highlighted his mental challenges, it has been reported.

The Department of Justice released its long-awaited investigation into the president's mishandling of classified documents Thursday, delivering a damning assessment of his 'diminished faculties' and limited memory.

But Biden, 81, has informed his aides and advisers that Garland didn't do enough to rein in the report written by Special Counsel Robert Hur, according to Politico.

Top Biden aides have even suggested Garland should have edited the parts that made the president look like a senile old man - despite Biden vowing to hire an impartial attorney general in the wake of the Trump presidency.

Democrat insiders have also claimed more time working on makeup and lighting could help ease concerns about his age, according to CNN. They've urged aides to have him sat down at the start of appearances, rather than letting him shuffle onto stage stiffly - and to stop claiming the president merely suffers from arthritis.

It comes as the Biden-Harris campaign team also released a statement on Friday hitting out at Donald Trump's comments that some onlookers claimed was panicked and showed just how badly the White House has reacted to the scandal.

Biden-Harris advisor TJ Ducklo -who resigned from a White House job in 2021 over a bullying scandal - said: 'Every single time Donald Trump opens his mouth, he's confused, deranged, lying, or worse.'

'Tonight, he lied more than two dozen times, slurred his words, confused basic facts, and placated the gun lobby weeks after telling parents to 'get over it' after their kids were gunned down at school.

'But you won't hear about any of it if you watch cable news, read this weekend's papers, or watch...

LOL…for years it was “We need to improve our ‘message.’”

Plan B: “We need to improve our lighting and makeup.”

Over the last couple of months, the wife and I binge watched the entire 15 years of the “ER” series.

I was taken aback by the number of times they used fentanyl.

Garland works for the Deep State and his failure to intervene is by design because the DS now knows that Bidden will lose to Trump and that they need a new candidate ASAP.

Accusing Trump of being an insurrectionist hasn't worked; lawfare has made Trump even more popular; and the SCOTUS is about to end the attempts in blue states to keep Trump off the ballot. The DS desperately needs a viable candidate and if they can't get Biden off the Ballot, then I fear that the next step is to JFK DJT.

Wonder how the DOJ will react if Biden’s handlers throw their boss Garland under the bus?

...Probably some initial harumphing then praise for the new appointee.

Joe Scarborough is saying the same things as Ducklo. This will be their mantra from now on.

One of the generics names of Adderall is methamphetamine salts typically a combination of four enantiomers to make the brand name. You are correct modafinil is provigil (methylphenidate is Ritalin). Thanks for pointing out my mistakes. I was writing my response based on drug classes and I rarely use the trade names.

Now that you have scored whatever Pyrrhic victory points you need to score, the actual point is he is likely being chemically stimulated related to what appears to be dementia. I would also be curious as to what type of dementia. Some have said his deterioration is pretty quick. Raises the specter of Lewy-Body dementia. That would rapidly invoke 25 amendment.

See below. Yes ibmade a mistake translating to brand names. As I said to one guy in NJ I hardly ever write orders for the trade name. Most EMRs have only generic which is a better practice to use. The point being he is being in my opinion stimulated chemically for timing of events.

According to reports there is a pharmacy in the White House. It wouldn’t surprise me if there were and it doesn’t surprise me that things somehow are not accounted for in it. Wonder if it’s where hunter keeps his cocaine

Fentanyl and hydromorphone (Dilaudid) are the only drugs that seem to get kidney stone pain somewhat controlled. We use the heavy hitters for them. It is needed based on observation of most kidney stone patients doing the kidney stone dance.

Remember when the democrats were screaming about Reagan’s age at 70 claiming he was too old to be President and would probably die in his first term? One magazine even had an illustration of a dead Reagan on a hospital gurney.

Now they are again claiming an 81 year old man we knew was “losing it” back in the Obama days is still “The Best Man for the Job!”
