Cutting-room-floor text. I remember when I first published this essay, some readers told me that people with dementia don't know they have this condition or that they are starting to "lose their mind." I understand this may be the reality with some dementia sufferers, but I still think Biden must have known he was getting "very forgetful." Here's why I think this:

The best (dark) comedy bit proving my conjecture occurred when White House aides dressed up a volunteer as the Easter Bunny and said Easter Bunny performed his assigned task of keeping our president away from reporters and Easter egg hunters.

What motivated me to write this column is the cringe-inducing moment that happened yesterday when President Biden (going off script) asked if a deceased Congress person was in the room.

We’ve all known people who are obviously losing their mental sharpness. I know several friends who are struggling with this condition right now. (In fact, I wonder if this “brain fog,” at least in some people, might be an adverse reaction to the Covid “vaccines.”)

Regardless of the cause, most people going through this struggle actually admit this, either to themselves or others. When people start to suffer from this condition, they have plenty of moments where their brain functions as well as always. I’ve had people (all retired by the way) confide in me, “Bill, I’m losing my mind.”

So I have no doubt President Biden knows what’s happening to him.

I have had comments back to me that we should feel sorry for Jill Biden. Are you KIDDING ME? She helped and I'm sure well paid to prop up her husband. She is an accomplicec.

Evil. Evil. Evil. Take her and multiply her by everyone who came in contact with Biden. They were all silent - just like every important person who knows the "vaccines" are unsafe and ineffective has remained silent for 4 1/2 years.

This is what scares me: The number of people who see scandals that are occcurring and who are perfectly fine with this continuing. They want this to continue.

Don’t you think though it is the internet age where news is old in 1-2 days as another “big” story comes out to distract the masses (Which is why I 1000% believe this cancer diagnosis was put out.)? Always said if I was a PR person and a devastating story was about to come out about one of my clients. I would tell them “do you have a place to go in the mountains or beach away from the public for 2 weeks? Probably won’t need to be gone one week, but trust me, people will forget this story like it never existed.” Prime example: the letter Ashton Kuchner wrote it support of the rapist Danny Masterson. People forgot that in one week.

Good point. The shelf life of these potentially seismic stories is about 24 hours. There's never any follow-up from the "pack journalists."

This, of course, is why the MSM is rapidly dying. Alas, read my last couple of stories, all these journalists are now flooding Substack - which is growing rapidly - except for sites like my own.

Another story that just broke today or yesterday is that "President" Biden has been diagnosed with cancer.

Let's hope it's not one of those vaccine "turbo cancers."

Let's also hope someone investigates the White House physician who covered up his medical condition for four years. If Meryl Nass's medical license can be pulled (for telling the truth and trying to help patients) so can this man's license.

Some pertinent subscriber metrics ...

I've recently been writing many articles about curious "subscription metrics" at my newsletter. One of these metrics is my stories don't generate nearly as many "likes" and "Reader Comments" as they once did.

For example, I wrote my first "Joe Biden has dementia" story on September 28, 2022 (link included). This was two weeks after I started my newsletter and when I had a grand total of 250 total subscribers (I now have 7,539 - supposedly).

I noted with interest that this Sept. 28, 2022 story got 82 "likes" and 54 Reader Comments, which is far more than my recent stories have been generating. (A recent story, not counting my own comments, got only 13 Reader Comments from different readers).

When I had far fewer subscribers, my stories were, somehow, reaching far more people than they do today - which is ... odd.

UPDATE: this original story also produced 94 (!) free subscribers. In the last three months, all of my 40-plus stories haven't produced 90 new subscribers combined. That is, one story produced more subscribers than 40 stories do today.

Here's a story from today from The Free Press (the most lucrative Substack newsletter) where the author makes some excellent points. However, I suspect this might be an example of getting in front of the story to come and, years later, acknowledge the obvious. There's no way Jake Tapper is telling us the true story. And he was one of the main media figures who covered up this scandal!

Over the decades I have had many elderly relatives slip into dementia of various sorts, so I recognize it when I see it. Biden's case was obvious to me. What astonished me was that if I mentioned it, that he obviously had some dementia, most people in my world (urban PMC) would look at me as if I had said that Big Foot told me that— or something equally bizarre. What I recall is consistently getting a wild look of silent panic— and that seemed to me to be about, OMG DON'T THINK THAT THOUGHT!! It was uncanny.

Ah, but now it's OK. Not that they find the subject at all interesting. What these same people want to do now is yammer on about how very, very, very, oh so very bad is the Bad Orange Man.

I don't have a problem with people having their political opinion that might be different than mine. What I have a problem with is people denying the reality that's smack in their face.

But...are people who are attracted to such articles really looking for truth anyway?

The “urban PMC” still have the same opinion about Biden and his memory issues, when one calls them out on what a demented fool of a President he was. They are so focused on “Orange Man Bad” and their “hate of DJT”, they won’t admit how bad Biden was. When you ask them who was really “running the country” they have no answer in their ‘bag of tricks’.

And the whole ‘appointment/anointment’ of Kamala as the nominee for President, they completely sweep under the rug as well.

Frontera Lupita— That is my experience as well. I'm not defending all things Trump, but when it comes to Biden and Harris and all that has transpired in recent years, so many of the people around me are willfully blind, deaf & dumb and with an arrogance that hits the 11 on a scale of 1 to 10.

About the appointment of Kamala Harris as candidate— that wouldn't have passed muster with party voters in the relatively recent past, not by a million x zillion miles.

Frontera Lupita's avatar

Let me ask you this. If you call out any of these PMC’s on their “s**t thinking” do they automatically link you to the MAGA camp, and Trump? That’s my experience. The common theme is “why are you continually defending Trump”? I have NEVER said I was for DJT, or even voted for him! But that’s the only place they can go. “If you’re not on our side then you have to be with the MAGA/right wingers”. It’s so tiring.

I have said to them that the reason Trump was re-elected was because people were TIRED of ALL the BS politics of the Left and the Democrats and what was happening to our country…you know…like the trans agenda, education, immigration, inflation, healthcare, the Scamdemic/Plandemic of C*V*D, the EUA mRNA ‘vaccines’, the long standing transfer of manufacturing to foreign countries, like China, yada, yada, yada.

And by that statement I must be a supporter of The Donald and the MAGA movement! From what kind of thinking do they make that connection? Drives me nuts!

Reader East of Albuquerque's avatar

Frontera Lupita— Yep, that's exactly what happens. Exactly and consistently. I feel like I'm trying to talk to a retarded person. So, in 99% of the instances, I give up. I let them spew their TDS, make polite noises, and then, ASAP, change the subject.

What I would tell them if I could get a word in edgewise is that there are many reasons why Trump won, and by so totally dismissing the people who voted for him as kooks and white supremacists and fascists and ignorants, you're only going to wonder why the world increasingly makes no sense to you.

And one those many, many reasons that Trump won is that many people such as myself, an independent dedicated medical freedom activist, was utterly horrified that Kamala Harris and her party stood for censorship and for jab mandates. I was also aware, as you apparently are not— as I would go on to tell them— at how profoundly the mainstream media and Big Tech social media have been manipulated into hiding information from you and, if you were aware of it, it would both horrify and enrage you. I speak specifically of the fraud in the clinical trials, the misrepresentation of the jabs as "safe and effective" and the misrepresentation of gene therapy as "vaccines," the total disregard for informed consent, and the massive numbers of deaths and hellish injuries following the jabs rolls out.

In my view, Trump may not be perfect—no how no way— he fell for the con, he did the lockdowns, Warp Speed & etc.— and yes, his New York City celebrity casino-owner style rubs a lot of people's fur the wrong way— but the Biden-Harris and Democratic Party attack on the First Amendment (free speech) was a no go. A TOTAL I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL NO GO. A violation of the very core of what it means to be a United States citizen.

So actually— I would continue to tell them, were it a realistic possibility that they would listen— RFK, Jr., this person whom you consider to be a kook beneath mention, is a serious person with a lot of serious support, and you ignore that political block at your peril. But the main peril is: you haven't figured out that you got conned into injecting into yourself a bioweapon. And, by the way, you might start to inform yourself about that by reading RFK's book on Anthony Fauci.

Well, there you have it. Thanks for reading! I'm off now to write some condolence letters. There have been a lot of funerals in my world— trend since 2021 continuing apace.

Frontera Lupita's avatar

Wow…love this.as far as the condolence letters, I have had two cousins (a first and second cousin) die suddenly from the Jabs. They were 71 and 77 respectively. The first cousin was a developmentally disabled man (cerebral palsy) and my mother’s sister’s (my Aunt’s) only child.

He worked for HUD as a ‘clerk’ for almost 40 years, retired in December 2022, found dead in his apartment in January 2023. He most certainly got the Jabs.

The second cousin a female, was Jabbed as well. She told me so, in a conversation when she asked if I had “got the vaccines”? I told her emphatically NO. She was a high strung, a bit hypochondriacal woman, who married late in life, the. Was widowed after a few years. She has been diagnosed with having ‘C*V*D in the fall of ‘23, and was not getting better. She had a part time retail job, and was finally cleared to return to work in the spring of 2024. Then she “developed problems with her heart”. In April she had some kind of diagnostic ‘scan’ of her heart, and her step daughter took her and brought her home. The step daughter returned the next day and found her dead in her apartment.

Then my Aunt’s ‘caregiver’s husband died in their bed. He was 57 years old. Then the caregiver’s niece “died suddenly” at 34. On one on my visits to see my Aunt, the ‘caregiver’ went on about how “they were all vaccinated” including my Aunt Joanne and her dead husband as well.

So I have seen and experienced “death from the Jabs” up close and personal as well.

Frontera Lupita, I am so sorry for your losses.

I know first-hand how hard it is to not only lose people I care about, but be unable to communicate with the survivors about why this is happening to so many people and all of a sudden starting in 2021.

My own family has several people who have been diagnosed post-jabs with aFib, a grisly, disfiguring and fatal turbo cancer, thrombocytopenia, strokes, neurological problems of various sorts including tremors, tics, and debilitating leg spams, and back spasms, eye problems, dementias, severe GI issues... That's just family— and the ones I still speak with.

As for my friends, colleagues, and neighbors, there's a ginormous list of post-jab problems, including a number of "died suddenlys," turbo cancers, neurological issues, weird rashes and food allergies, a fatal infection, and a number of cases of myocarditis.

Well, we live in interesting times.

Frontera Lupita's avatar

Oh I forgot that my 81 year old cousin, who also got the Jabs, was “diagnosed with ”aFib”

and “put on medication” as well last year. She and her husband “had C*V*D” in early 2020, and as soon the Jabs came out they got them. She was an elementary school teacher but I find when I speak to her now on the phone, her brain is on a bit of a ‘delay’, like she’s not very “quick on the uptake” on things these days.

Bill your right on showing that Covid was a bigger cover up but what every one is missing all of these actions that these people did all falls under the crime of the century that started this all the Russian hoax conspiracy plan by Obama, Hillary Biden and the DNC of interfering in three presidential elections for the purpose of staying in powers to enrich themselves and their supporters. You have to look as Covid as an overt act just like they covered up Biden mental decline as part of the plan to stay in power. The problem is getting the those in power to see their a viable blueprint to prosecute everyone involved by using the conspiracy statutes.

I haven't written as much about the "Russia! Russia! Russia!" hoax as you have, John, but, yes, that scandal also proves we have no real adults in the room or truth-seeking "watchdog" organizations. What we have is the exact opposite - Powerful organizations that exist to conceal important truths.

They actually have two jobs - conceal "thermo-nuclear" truths and spread, via propaganda, huge Whoppers - all of which become the "authorized narratives."

The only half-way significant writers platform that might expose some of these untruths is Substack, but it's probably now been captured ... or the threat posed by contrarian citizen journalists has been "neutralized."

... Covering up for all of Epstein's VIP clients was yet another potential "thermo-nuclear" truth bomb that had to be covered up. (BTW, where did Epstein get all his money? Aren't journalists supposed to "follow the money?")

That’s why I admire your efforts in getting the truth out to the public on Covid in trying to educate them that they lied to us about the Heath risks of the shots in covering up all the deaths that could have been prevented. Sadly Covid was used to get Trump out of office as part of their evil plan to get back into power and enrich themselves and thier financial supporters with $$ from the American taxpayers. Your documenting the Covid debacle at least provides a historical record for historians.

Bill as you so professionally covered how the left is infiltrating Substack by publishing articles using Hitlers big lie theory to deceive the public. There is a silver lining as the truth will when out in the end as illustrated by Goebbels

Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels turned words into a weapon of mass destruction, “The Big Lie Theory.”

“IF you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the state can shield the people from the political, economic, and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the state to use all its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus, by extension, the truth is the state’s greatest enemy.”

Bill Rice, Jr.'s avatar

One of my take-aways, is the Powers that Be have a stronger incentive to cover-up "thermo-nuclear" truths today than compared to earlier times.

This is because they've told more lies and tripled down on those lies for so long. They know if the truth was belatedly told, the masses would be coming for them with those proverbial pitch forks.

By now, censorship is a self-preservation project. They HAVE to do this. I'm convinced the censorship and suppression programs will become even more brazen.

IMO, they are now focussing on the potential threat of Substack, which they seem to have neutralized.

Also, not all "contrarian" writers on Substack are equally a threat. Some are greater threats than others and I bet the algorithms have identified the five-star threats.

Expand full comment
Bill Rice, Jr.'s avatar

His book reminded me of the leading sports columnist in Alabama, a man named Joe Goodman. As I documented, Goodman wrote at least four columns saying that the Powers that Be should cancel the 2020 college football season because of the Covid "risks" to athletes and fans.

Well, the commissioners allowed games to be played that season, albeit in front of no fans or about 15 percent stadium capacity.

As it turns out, Alabama's football team ran the table that season and won another national title with one of the most impressive teams the Tide has ever put on the field.

After the season, Goodman wrote his first book, celebrating that team and that season! That's the season he didn't want to happen!

FWIW, no player or fans died from Covid because that season was played. About six Alabama players became instant millionaires as they were drafted in the first round of the NFL - something that wouldn't have happened if they couldn't have showed their talents that year. Plus, all the great memories fans received.

One suspects the real story hasn't been told yet, but there are people who worked in the White House who could tell it. And make a lot of $ from their book. It's all going to come out one day anyway, why not make some money from these whistleblower accounts?

My dad had the same cancer Joe Biden has, prostate that spreads to the bones, and then the rest of the body. When the cancer reached this stage, my dad was dead in six months. There is no treatment for this stage of the cancer, no matter what the Biden people say. I have great empathy for Biden or anyone going through this terrible process. However, my dad lived for seven years with an initial prostate cancer diagnosis that he did treat with chemotherapy, and he went into remission for many years. I’m no doctor, but it seems to me Joe Biden has had this cancer for a while, but it was hidden from the public. Joe’s dementia may even be a symptom of the cancer’s spread. Maybe. The whole Biden affair, how he was hidden from the American people, and who was really running the country, is disgraceful.
