In an utterly bizarre and shocking recent report on CNN, CNN reporter MJ Lee said, when speaking to CNN anchor Jake Tapper, that President Joe Biden’s advisors have threatened staffers in the White House, telling them that they will “beat the shit out” of anyone who says a contrary word to the official administration line about President Biden’s much-questioned cognitive and physical health.

Such is what Lee claimed when speaking about how those in the Biden White House knew about his condition before the disaster of a debate, but that it was shocking to even them, and that those close to the President are apparently regarded as being responsible for keeping his true condition hidden from everyone, including those working for him.

Lee told Tapper, “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.”

Continuing, Lee explained that there is significant blabe being placed on those closet to President Biden for, in the view of many, keeping his condition hidden from those who should know about it. Lee said, “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.”

Lee then explained that much thought and effort goes into choreographing Biden’s movements to try to cover things up. She said, “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.”

She added that those who tried to speak about his condition weren’t taken seriously, saying, “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.”

She then got to the part about advisors making threats of physical harm to those in the White House who might speak about his health. She said, “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.”

Watch Lee here:

Tapper, for his part, recently tweeted out a text from a longtime Biden adviser who said, “I just think there is an unfortunate inevitability to all this. I am sad because I have known him a long time and he is a good man. I am angry at his inner circle who have not served him well and at times committed malpractice in their service. And I am frustrated at the family for not expanding the circle so there would be a truth teller or two in their midst.”
