Originally formed in 1919, the Politburo of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union was the highest level of the Soviet government.
Various dictators held power, most notably Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, but the Politburo was the executive council, from its formation to the collapse of the Soviet Union, which led to the Politburo’s disbanding in November 1991.
And now, in one of history’s funny little ironies, we learned on Friday the shadowy group of Obiden Regime officials who were running the country “while old Joe was drooling into a pudding cup was called the Politburo.” And now we know who they are.
According to the authors of a bombshell new book:
A small, tight-knit group in Joe Biden’s inner circle was running the White House like a ‘politburo,’ and they were the ‘ultimate decision-makers’ as Biden’s health and cognitive function continued to decline.
The authors of Original Sin claim:
This group, dubbed the ‘politburo,’ included a coterie of seasoned political veterans, including Mike Donilon, Steve Ricchetti and Bruce Reed—but also family members such as first lady Jill Biden and the…son Hunter.
Hunter. What a shock. Joe-Joe was non compos mentis, and his ne’er-do-well druggy son was part of the cabal that was running the country. At least he was not the only one:
‘In terms of who was running the White House, it’s a small group of people that have been around,’ Original Sin author Alex Thompson told PBS’s Washington Week on Friday. ‘Some people within the administration called them the Politburo. That’s the term we used in the book.’
Former White House chief of staff Ron Klain was at times part of the ‘politburo,’ as was former senior adviser to the president Annie Tomasini. Also on the ‘politburo’ was the first lady’s former top adviser and ‘work husband,’ Anthony Bernal, whom The Post previously reported created a toxic workplace environment.
Anthony Bernal has been accused of sexual harassment, among other things. Charming fellow, and he was the former first lady’s ‘work husband?’ Some things just do not bear too much close scrutiny, and that relationship is surely one of those things.
Here is the part most questionable:
‘And Joe Biden himself also is part of this. Joe Biden is not like—it’s not ‘Weekend at Bernie’s,’ right?’ said co-author and CNN anchor Jake Tapper, referring to the movie about a dead guy who is wheeled around as part of an elaborate ruse.‘He has some purchase here. He has some agency. And he’s aware of some of what’s going on.’Tapper added: ‘He’s aware of the fact that they are keeping the cabinet away from him, they are keeping some White House staffers away from him.’
Maybe he had some agency at the beginning. Maybe he had some agency when they loaded him up with whatever cocktail of pharmaceuticals they were using to make him lucid enough for a brief appearance or to deliver a brief, rambling address. But by the end, We the People all know Joe Biden was in seriously bad shape—mentally, anyway.
This is, without a doubt, the greatest political scandal of the 21st century, so far, anyway. We are talking about the man for whom an election was stolen and is masquerading as the commander-in-chief of all our armed forces, the head of the executive branch of the federal government, the man the world assumed had nuclear weapons release authority. Now We the People know beyond any doubt that not only was he incapable, not only had The Regime tried unsuccessfully to hide that incapacity from the American people, but we now know who they are.
And now the rats are fleeing that sinking ship. Original Sin certainly will not be the last book to come out on this topic, which is a good thing. The American people deserve answers—we deserve to know what and who was behind enabling this to happen, we deserve to know how a man so clearly incapacitated was propped up in office, and how the people around him collaborated, for reasons of their own, to keep him there. And in that knowing, perhaps, we will have the insight, as a nation, for this never to happen again.
God speed to those peeling this putrid onion.
