The tumultuous period of the Watergate scandal in the seventies is etched in the annals of US history, and the key players such as President Richard Nixon, the investigative duo Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, and other infamous figures are often brought up in conversation. The scandal, marked by secret recordings, whistleblower testimonies, judicial pursuits, and incessant calls for impeachment, garnered extensive attention from the media, with major publications like The Washington Post, The New York Times, and The Los Angeles Times regularly running lead stories. But, in contrast to that time, an apparent twofold conspiracy seems to be playing out. Notably involves the ambiguous health of current President Joe Biden, specifically concerning his cognitive acuity and recent indications of serious prostate cancer.
Kevin O’Connor, Biden’s physician, who once vouched for his fitness to serve a second term, seems to be involved in this alleged cover-up. His failure to provide clarity on Biden’s Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) levels, a significant biomarker for prostate cancer, has raised questions about his professional competence. It’s either negligence or an intended cherry-picking of information. The absence of full transparency leaves the public investigating Biden’s health in the dark, creating a backdrop for conspiracy these theories to thrive.
Jill Biden, the First Lady, is suspected of being fully aware of her husband’s declining mental and physical state. Her silence raises the question of where the modern-day equivalent of Woodward and Bernstein, the investigative journalists who doggedly pursued the truth during Watergate, is. Their lack of interest in exploring the undisclosed details about President Biden’s health exposes unbalanced scrutiny and shows a clear divergence from the level of commitment shown during the Watergate period.
Despite these alarming revelations, major television networks and newspapers remain fixated on former President Donald Trump, criticizing his character, ethics, and decisions. They have pushed Biden’s alleged health cover-up into the realm of secondary importance. However, the New York Post emerges as a beacon of accountability, risking the ire of its peers to interact with this neglected disclosure.
The New York Post has boldly highlighted allegations by a senior Department of Justice official suggesting that Jill Biden should face punitive action for ‘elder abuse’. Her apparent unwillingness to share knowledge about President Biden’s health situation fuels this serious accusation.
The potentially monumental implications of this situation cannot be swept under the rug. The secretive approach to President Biden’s health concerns raises questions about who is truly at the helm of decision-making in the White House. Given the importance of the President’s health to national security and effective governance, these questions are of paramount concern.
Some of the staunch Democrats who previously defended Biden, brushing off concerns about his health, are now hinting that they may have downplayed the gravity of his condition. However, expectations of remorse or admission of their oversights should not be held high. Recurring patterns suggest that they, along with major media outlets, are quick to dismiss their inconsistencies, perpetuating a cycle of moving on without accountability.
Weapons of mass distraction seem to be at play, as focus is shifted from those who plan and execute cover-ups that can potentially risk national security. Crafting narratives to discard their involvement, these individuals lay low, while their actions may have dire consequences.
Retaliation on this issue isn’t about settling scores but about protecting the nation from similar events in the future. Those who played a part in concealing or downplaying Biden’s health issues need to be held responsible, and not allowed to slip away untouched. This is a lesson to learn and to implement measures that will prevent the repetition of such incidents.
President Biden’s responses to concerns about his mental health have been vague and incomplete. He asserts that he frequently undergoes tests, but the results of these supposed tests remain cloaked in secrecy. The media, strangely uncurious, has largely given him a pass on this issue, offering a stark contrast with their fervor in holding President Trump accountable for his actions.
Unlike Biden, President Trump had a commendable commitment to transparency, releasing his medical tests to the public, which included a low PSA level. The legacy of transparency and accountability set during his term seems at odds with the current situation, where numerous questions about the President’s health remain unanswered, creating an uncomfortable void.
The cover-up shadowing President Biden’s health condition is arguably more substantial than the Watergate scandal. The latter was primarily about the ethics and integrity of the presidential office, while the former delves into the personal health of the president, which can potentially impact the national decision-making process.
Swirling around these speculations, doubts about Biden’s health and fitness for the presidency are becoming an elephant in the room. Yet, major media outlets continue to overlook these issues, focusing their critical lenses elsewhere.
The question ultimately is how long it will take for the true facts regarding President Biden’s health to break the surface. How long can the whispering doubts be ignored by mainstream media, how much longer will the stark double standards persist?
In the end, it will boil down to the extent to which the American public is kept informed and the degree to which those who have played a part in the concealment are held accountable. The credibility of the media and the trust in political structures are at stake. Until these questions are adequately addressed, the ghost of Watergate lingers, only its setting has changed.
