Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki recently addressed concerns regarding President Joe Biden’s mental acuity during her tenure, asserting that she never observed any signs of decline.
In a podcast interview, Psaki emphasized that throughout her daily interactions in the Oval Office, she did not witness the diminished state that some have attributed to Biden, particularly referencing his debated performance in June 2024.
Psaki, who served until May 2022, acknowledged that aging can progress rapidly and noted her limited contact with Biden post-tenure. She cautioned against labeling the situation a “cover-up,” claiming that such terms are loaded and potentially misleading. Psaki defended her former colleagues, describing them as fundamentally honest individuals unlikely to conceal significant health issues from the public.
Addressing media coverage, Psaki proposed that any oversight regarding Biden’s condition might stem from missed stories or moments rather than intentional suppression. She also claimed Biden’s age was a known factor during his campaign and presidency, and criticized political opponents for exploiting this aspect for partisan gain.
Jen Psaki says she never saw Biden’s mental decline until his disastrous debate and we were memeing about it before he was elected for his first term.
These people are liars.
They continue to lie.
They will always lie.

Psaki also reflected on Biden’s decision to seek re-election, suggesting that his legacy has been influenced by perceptions of his self-awareness and honesty about his capacity to serve a full term. She indicated that the consequences of his re-election bid and subsequent withdrawal have shaped public discourse around his presidency.
