Psaki Says She Saw No Signs of Biden's Decline as Press Secretary
- In a 2024 interview, Jen Psaki, who served as White House press secretary from 2021 to 2022, stated that during her time working with President Biden, she did not notice any indications that his abilities were deteriorating.
- This statement responds to widespread claims and political attacks alleging a cover-up of Biden's cognitive decline, especially following his June 2024 debate performance.
- Psaki emphasized the term "cover-up" suggests a crime, which she denied, and noted she was in the Oval Office daily and never witnessed any mental decline prior to the debate.
- Psaki described Biden's debate showing as disastrous but said media and political figures might have missed signs before, and she called labeling responses as a cover-up 'dangerous.'
- Her comments imply that while Biden's fitness became a public concern after mid-2024, Psaki rejects intentional deception but acknowledges prior scrutiny and challenges around his health claims.

Here we have an example of both. Democrat Gavin Ne…
