Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Hey, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show.
Today, a deep dive into the decline of President Biden's cognitive health while in office, including never before heard stories from those very close to the president and a true reckoning about the media's role in the Democrat Party's attempted cover up. In minutes, I will be joined by CNN's Jake Tapper and Axios' Alex Thompson regarding their new book.
It's called Original Sin, President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again. This will be their first long-form interview. The book does include some shocking new details, including from some of Mr. Biden's own cabinet secretaries who said that by 2024, the president could no longer be relied upon for being able to perform at 2 a.m.
if there were some sort of emergency. He was not able to answer that call. Another revelation from the book, a source close to Mr. Biden said, quote, five people were running the country and Joe Biden was at best a senior member of the board. Who were those five people running the country? And who exactly perpetrated this attempted cover up? We will ask for and receive names in just a moment.
But first, I'll look back at the president's decline that we reported on at the time that was called nothing more than a conspiracy theory. Signs of a slipping Joe Biden were everywhere, even in the run-up to the 2020 election. For a politician long known for gaffes, this was something different. Concerning brain freezes, like this one on CNN in April 2020.
You know, there's a during World War Two, you know, where Roosevelt came up with a thing that, you know, was totally different than a than the call. He called the, you know, the World War Two. He had the war, the war production board.
But raising questions about Mr. Biden's mental fitness back then was risky. Just ask Laura Trump, who dared to go there in an interview with Jake Tapper weeks before the 2020 election.
I think what we see on stage with Joe Biden, Jake, is very clearly a cognitive decline. That's what I'm referring to.
It makes me uncomfortable to watch somebody on stage search for questions.
