14. We know the stories of his "cognitive decline" were bullshit.

The headline on this Salon article says it all.

https://www.salon.com/2024/02/23/dr-john-gartner-on-a-tale-of-two-brains-bidens-brain-is-aging-brain-is-dementing/

I would tell those rethug hypocrites that OUR witnesses don't have to claim executive priviledge because all they have to do is tell the truth. There is NO there there. Like everything else they do, rethugs use slight of hand techniques to get the media to look over THERE, because their leader's brain turned into oatmeal years ago.

snip:
"At the end of this conversation, Gartner explains how even on his worst day as an older person, President Biden is a far superior leader and decision-maker (and human being) than Donald Trump."

This article is from February of last year. We knew it. They were warned. I never want to hear, "I didn't vote for this" from any of them.

Biden and his aides should challenge this in court oldmanlynn Jun 25 #7

from what I can tell, the legality of this privilege remains undecided, both Bannon and Navarro went to prison for it cadoman Jun 25 #9
Bannon wasn't in the administration during the time period leading up to J6 BumRushDaShow Jun 25 #13
true but his case involved another salient point: TFG did invoke executive privilege w/respect to Bannon's conversations cadoman Jun 25 #15
Alot of the "Executive Privilege" claims were denied early BumRushDaShow Jun 25 #22
that's not exactly right, the privilege was denied in that specific instance but the denial wasn't absolute cadoman Jun 25 #25
