The Democrats’ corporate media allies have finally started admitting that President Joe Biden is not really in charge and an “unelected” team of “governing oligarchy” is actually running the country.
Following Biden’s disastrous debate performance, liberal talking heads immediately began ringing the alarm bells.
Many have since been calling for Biden to bow out of the presidential race, including the president’s favorite news show, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
The New York Times editorial board called for him to stop running the day after the debate.
As Slay News reported Tuesday, Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) became the first congressional Democrat to go public and call for Biden to drop out.
And now, Biden’s allies are breaking from him and admitting to the world that he’s not in charge.
Axios, who within the last year has run headlines about Biden’s “vigor,” outlined the president’s puppet masters in a Wednesday run-down.
The article casts his wife Jill Biden, his sister Valerie Biden, and his longtime friend Ted Kaufman alongside a group of White House advisers as his unofficial handlers.
The outlet refers to this group of unelected handlers as a “governing oligarchy.”
“This decades-long kitchen cabinet operates as an extended family, council of elders, and governing oligarchy,” the outlet wrote.
“These allies alone hold sway over decisions big and small in Biden’s life and presidency.”

Meanwhile, NBC News reported that Biden’s son Hunter joined him in the White House following the president’s return from a family gathering at Camp David over the weekend.
The report lends credence to Axios’ hypothesis.
Hunter, who has no official role in the administration, has reportedly been sitting in on high-level meetings with aides.
The unusual situation is leading Biden staffers to ask “What the hell is happening?” a source told NBC News.
Additionally, a former Obama administration official appeared to give credence to the puppet master theory.
On Tuesday, former Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Jeh Johnson chose to emphasize the handlers pulling Biden’s strings while trying to quell the media maelstrom.
Johnson mentioned the Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, and USAID Administrator Samantha Power as reasons for voters to be hopeful.
He continued by claiming that “a presidency is more than just one man.”

The Daily Beast’s Melissa DeRosa also described in detail the “they” who have been running the country instead of Biden.
“That ‘they’ is comprised of a long and distinguished list, starting with the first family, top White House, and Biden campaign staff, and likely a notable list of Democratic senators, Congress members, and Cabinet officials,” DeRosa wrote Wednesday.
The fact that Biden is being handled politically shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone who’s been paying attention.
Considering how often he’s been physically handled by his wife and even world leaders publicly in the last year, concerns have been mounting for some time.
Dozens of online clips show the first lady rushing to Biden’s side to aide him as he wanders aimlessly.
Most recently, a video went viral that showed “Dr.” Jill leading an extremely confused-looking Biden off the debate stage Thursday night.
This is very alarming/troubling. Given the rumors that Biden can’t find his way off stage. Last night’s debate was the one time Jill should have stayed off. It’s like she’s the designated elder-guide.pic.twitter.com/yjIfgq1Q1z

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni also had to corral Biden back to the group as other world leaders huddled to mask Biden wandering away from a photo op during the G7 Summit in Italy in June.

The virality of the video prompted White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre to accuse “conservative media” of engaging in deceptively editing videos of Biden to make him look elderly.
Jean-Pierre labeled the video, which hadn’t been altered, a “cheap fake.”
The White House and obedient “fact checkers” claimed the video was “cropped” to remove context and make Biden appear confused.
However, a longer version of the video later emerged which was even more troubling.

X added a #communitynote to the previous wandering Biden video I posted of him getting lost at the G7, they said it "was cropped". So, here is the FULL uncropped video of same event and it makes Walkaway Joe look 10 times worse. #JoeBiden pic.twitter.com/mJSr7u1X6d
