An MSNBC host revealed a scary demand from Joe Biden’s handlers over this question
The secrets are coming about Joe Biden now that his Presidency is coming to an end.
His allies in the media are spilling the beans about what really happened.
And an MSNBC host revealed a scary demand from Joe Biden’s handlers over this question.
Joe Biden’s handlers tried to stop an interview after MSNBC host asked about Hunter Biden
President Joe Biden has had the most carefully controlled Presidency in modern history.
He avoided friendly media outlets and journalists to hide his mental decline from the public.
MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle revealed how carefully the White House tried to manage a May 5, 2023 interview with Biden to podcaster Lukas Thimm.
“In the way of traditional media, the White House runs the show,” Ruhle said. “When I interviewed President Biden, they gave me 10 minutes, okay? A politician can knock out one answer in 15 minutes.”
She knew she had to make her questions count with such a short time frame.
“And, 20 minutes before we went in, Savannah Guthrie and I were on the phone, of course she interviewed President Trump, and her advice to me was ‘the person you’re interviewing isn’t the person you’re up against, it’s the clock.’ You’re getting three questions in, tops … At minute nine-and-a-half, I asked the president ‘your son Hunter might be indicted by the Department of Justice, how will this impact your presidency?’” Ruhle recalled.
This was when Hunter Biden was still being investigated by a Special Counsel.
“A completely reasonable question. As soon as I said those words, President Biden’s team waved in front of the camera, started screaming and yelling to stop the interview,” Ruhle recalled. “Now, that immediately, that’s public record, that was in the transcript, that became its own story, and then they punished us. We ended up going 14 minutes, and then NBC was in the box and in trouble forever.”
MSNBC edited the Biden interview when it aired
A transcript of the interview edited out that Biden’s handlers demanded that the interview be shut down after the question about his embattled son.
MSNBC also edited out Biden’s handlers yelling to stop in the version that aired on the network.
She had to repeat the question twice because of what was described at the time as audio issues according to the transcript.
“First of all, my son has done nothing wrong. I trust him. I have faith in him. It impacts my Presidency by making me feel proud of him,” Biden said in response to Hunter’s legal woes impacting his Presidency.
Ruhle sat on this information for 19 months to protect the President.
He’s in the final weeks of his Presidency, so it’s all starting to come out now.
Biden’s handlers had to carefully control an interview with a friendly host on MSNBC.
They did everything in their power to keep the charade going that the President was as fit as fiddle as long as they could.
Journalists no longer have an incentive to lie to protect Biden now that his Presidency is at its end.
