A senior Biden administration official reportedly said this week that the president is “not a pleasant person to be around” at work and that people are genuinely terrified of him. The remarks come as President Joe Biden has faced widespread calls to step down following his disastrous debate against former President Donald Trump last week. The senior official told POLITICO that Biden’s staff has to withhold briefing him on specific matters likely to cause him to erupt in anger. “It’s like, ‘You can’t include that, that will set him off,’ or ‘Put that in, he likes that,’” said one senior administration official. “It’s a Rorschach test, not a briefing. Because he is not a pleasant person to be around when he’s being briefed. It’s very difficult, and people are scared s**tless of him.” “He doesn’t take advice from anyone other than those few top aides, and it becomes a perfect storm because he just gets more and more isolated from their efforts to control it,” the person added. The report said that those who are shielding Biden from having the “tough conversations” that need to occur include first lady Jill Biden and his sister, Valerie Biden Owens. The report comes after veteran investigative journalist Carl Bernstein told CNN on Monday that sources told him Biden’s debate performance on Thursday was part of an ongoing pattern of the president showing signs of cognitive decline. “They are adamant that what we saw the other night, the Joe Biden we saw, is not a one-off, that there have been 15-20 occasions in the last year and a half, when the president has appeared somewhat as he did in that horror show that we witnessed,” Bernstein said. “And what’s so significant is the people that this is coming from, and also how many people around the president are aware of such incidents, including some reporters, incidentally, who, who have witnessed some of them.” He said that the people he spoke to have worked very closely with Biden for many years and that they “say that in the last six months particularly, there has been a marked incidence of cognitive decline and physical infirmity.” One specific example he mentioned happened last year at a Four Seasons hotel where Biden spoke at a fundraiser. “He started at the podium and then he became very stiff, according to the people there as if it were almost a kind of rigor mortis,” he said. “And he became very stiff and a chair had to be brought for him to do the latter part of the event.” At the end of the segment, Bernstein seemed to imply that the White House’s physician report on Biden’s health was dishonest and that information was being concealed. “I mean, obviously, it’d be great if we could have real doctor’s reports from both candidates,” he said. “Well, that’s not gonna happen.”

Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) became the first Democratic lawmaker holding office to publicly call on President Joe Biden to step down as the party’s presidential nominee following his disastrous debate performance last week against former President Donald Trump. Doggett, 77, claimed in a statement that the 81-year-old president had “achieved much for our country at home and abroad” before highlighting that many are unhappy with him being at the top of the ticket in the upcoming elections. “President Biden has continued to run substantially behind Democratic senators in key states and in most polls has trailed Donald Trump,” he said. “I had hoped that the debate would provide some momentum to change that. It did not.” “Our overriding consideration must be who has the best hope of saving our democracy from an authoritarian takeover,” he continued. “Too much is at stake to risk a Trump victory-too great a risk to assume that what could not be turned around in a year, what was not turned around in the debate, can be turned around now.” “I represent the heart of a congressional district once represented by Lyndon Johnson. Under very different circumstances, he made the painful decision to withdraw,” he concluded. “President Biden should do the same. While much of his work has been transformational, he pledged to be transitional. He has the opportunity to encourage a new generation of leaders from whom a nominee can be chosen to unite our country through an open, democratic process. … I am hopeful that he will make the painful and difficult decision to withdraw. I respectfully call on him to do so.”

If you’re craving scrambled eggs, you should know there’s been a recall on liquid egg products from Michael Foods Inc. Apparently, a mislabeling incident could cause consumers to be unknowingly exposed to allergens! The Minnesota manufacturer voluntarily recalled the affected items from stores, according to Newsweek. Restaurants with these products in their possession have been advised to discard or return them, as well. Fair Meadow Foundations Whole Eggs with Citric Acid is the name of the liquid egg product being recalled. Compromised items will have batch number 4162G and a use-by date of September 16, 2024. If you need help identifying the product in question, you can consult this image provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). Photo by Imad 786 on Unsplash Here’s why Michael Foods recalled this liquid egg product. So, what’s wrong with these liquid eggs and why is Michael Foods recalling them? Well, it turns out that the product inside the carton actually isn’t Whole Eggs with Citric Acid, but Breakfast Blend Scrambled Egg, which contains milk. This means that someone expecting milk-free liquid eggs could accidentally ingest this allergen. As soon as Michael Foods discovered that some of their liquid eggs were in the wrong containers, they immediately recalled those items. In the end, they had to remove 4,620 pounds worth of the food product from shelves! A remaining worry for consumers with milk allergies is that some of the cartons might still be in restaurants. Even though the FSIS advised everyone to get rid of any Whole Eggs with Citric Acid that match the description of the recalled product, mistakes can still happen. Residents of Alabama, Idaho, Louisiana, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Mexico, Ohio, South Carolina, and Utah should exercise caution when ordering anything made with eggs. While this recall may sound pretty scary, you should know that, so far, no one on record got sick from these mislabeled liquid egg products. It’s a good thing the manufacturer caught the mistake!
