In a bombshell revelation that’s raising serious questions about transparency and national security, a new book claims several top officials in President Joe Biden’s Cabinet were deliberately kept away from him for months — with some reporting no access for over a year — allegedly to hide his rapid cognitive decline from the American people.
The exposé, titled Original Sin authored by journalists Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, contains quotes from unnamed Cabinet members who say they were stunned by Biden’s deteriorating mental state.
“He was disoriented, incoherent — mouth agape. Not the man we once knew,” one official said after a rare in-person meeting in 2024.
Biden’s Inner Circle Allegedly Hid the Truth — to Stop Trump?
According to the book, these Cabinet officials didn’t go public — not because the situation wasn’t serious — but because they feared speaking up would help Donald Trump.
That’s right. Instead of alerting the American people, these high-ranking officials chose to protect Joe Biden’s campaign at the expense of national interest, raising troubling questions about who’s really in charge in Washington.
Even MSNBC Is Asking: “Why Trust Them Now?”
On MSNBC’s The Weekend, White House Correspondents Association President Eugene Daniels questioned the motives of these now-outspoken officials:
“Why should anyone trust them today, when they admit they stayed silent back then?”
Daniels pointed out that many of these former officials may now be looking for plum jobs on K Street, in academia, or at think tanks — and are suddenly eager to talk, years too late.
Co-host Elise Jordan echoed the concern, asking, “If they were that worried about Biden’s condition, why didn’t they come forward when it mattered most?”
Americans Kept in the Dark — While a Nation Paid the Price
The authors say some Biden officials refused to lie to the media when asked to defend the president’s mental health — not because of integrity, but because they hadn’t seen him in months. One Cabinet Secretary even said they were shocked by how much Biden had changed when they finally met with him.
Their silence left voters in the dark while foreign adversaries, economic uncertainty, and border chaos spiraled out of control.
This is more than a political story — it’s about truth, leadership, and accountability at the highest level.
President Trump Warned Us — And Now the Truth Is Coming Out
While Biden’s handlers scrambled to shield the media from the truth, President Donald J. Trump was sounding the alarm, calling out what millions of Americans could already see for themselves: a president no longer fit to serve.
And now? Even former insiders are admitting it — just a little too late.
Final Word: If They Lied Then, Why Trust Them Now?
It’s easy to point fingers after the damage is done. But the American people deserve better than elites who stay silent to protect their careers or sabotage an election.
It’s time for answers. And it’s time for leadership that puts America First again.
