With Juneteenth around the corner, the Biden administration decided to jumpstart the celebrations, but what unfolded at the White House event was both entertaining and slightly unsettling. President Joe Biden was in attendance, and the scenes that followed left many shaking their heads.
Picture this: Biden trying to clap along with the music but ultimately giving up because he couldn’t keep the beat. This is a man who claims he spent time in black churches growing up. Folks from the South could probably tell you otherwise. Watching his arms hang awkwardly at his sides as he tries to muster some emotion without moving is quite the sight.
And yes, if you look closely, you’ll see a person in a sequin dress just a few seats away from him. There was also an awkward fist bump where Biden seemed to momentarily blank out. But it’s his eyes that really catch your attention. He manages to stand outside for a good 34 seconds without blinking. Whatever he’s on must be strong stuff.

When Biden took the stage, his speech was a mix of statements that seemed designed to stir up racial tensions and moments that highlighted his declining mental state. He stumbled through his words, making them nearly unintelligible, but don’t worry, they say it’s just a stutter. Yet, looking at him, you can tell something is off. He seems like a man who’s barely there, propped up by stimulants and struggling to read the teleprompter.

His handlers seemed to know their time was limited, as the speech was kept short. Just minutes in, Biden shuffled off the stage, needing to be corrected on which direction to go before presumably heading to bed.

The American people are left to grapple with Biden’s visible senility. As an advisor, you’re stuck between a rock and a hard place. You can’t hide him away without making it obvious, so you let him appear in public, only for him to look less capable each time. It’s a double-edged sword with no clear solution. Biden isn’t getting any younger, and there’s only so much medication can do.
So here we are, watching as Biden navigates through public appearances, each one a reminder of his waning ability to fulfill the duties of the office. What’s next? We’ll have to wait and see.
