Finally, a journalist willing to throw the hardball we’ve all been itching to see thrown!
Fox News’ Peter Doocy did us all a favor by asking the White House the million-dollar question: Is President Biden being treated ‘like a toddler’ by his own staff?
Now, folks, if that doesn’t have you on the edge of your seat, I don’t know what will.
The White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, wasn’t too pleased with the query, calling it ‘ridiculous.’
But is it?
With whispers about Biden’s age circulating like wildfire and an upcoming book by Franklin Foer spilling some spicy details—claiming Biden himself felt he was treated ‘like a toddler’—don’t we have a right to ask?
And wasn’t Biden’s comparison to JFK telling?
Jean-Pierre dismissed the whole thing, saying books with ‘a variety of claims’ get written about every administration.
Well, sure they do! But it doesn’t mean we should just sweep them under the rug, especially when they’re asking questions that are on everyone’s minds.
But let’s get serious here, folks.
The real question Peter Doocy should’ve fired off next is one many Americans have been pondering quietly: ‘How is President Biden’s health?’
The commander in chief’s age isn’t just a number—it’s a factor that could influence his ability to lead the nation.
It’s not just about being treated ‘like a toddler.’
It’s about whether or not he’s fit to sit in the Oval Office, making decisions that affect us all.

So here’s the skinny, folks: Kudos to Doocy for finally bringing the unspoken into the limelight.
But let’s not stop there.
Americans deserve to know the full scoop about Biden’s health, don’t you think?
Otherwise, we’re all just dancing around the elephant in the room, pretending it’s a potted plant!”
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre bristled when questioned Tuesday on Democrat voters’ views on President Biden’s age and claims from an upcoming book that administration staff treat him “like a toddler.”
“President Biden is the oldest president in U.S. history. Why does White House staff treat him like a baby?” Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked Jean-Pierre during the daily White House press briefing.
“No one treats the president of the United States, the commander in chief, like a baby. That’s ridiculous. It’s a ridiculous claim,” Jean-Pierre responded.
Doocy cited an upcoming book by The Atlantic’s Franklin Foer, “The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future,” in which the author writes that Biden, after appearing to call for regime change in Russia in March 2022, “fumed to friends about how he was treated like a toddler.”
ADVERTISEMENT“Was John Kennedy ever babied like that?” Biden asked, according to the book.
Jean-Pierre dismissed the excerpt, arguing that books inevitably get written about every administration with “a variety of claims.”
“That is not unusual. That happens all the time. And we’re not going to litigate those here. That’s something that we’re not going to speak to,” she said. She went on to say that the excerpt was instead making a point about “how the value of [Biden’s] experience and wisdom resulted in rallying the free world against authoritarianism.”
hen Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about President Biden being treated ‘like a toddler,’ she was quick to fire back with an indignant, ‘That’s ridiculous.’ Now, you’ve got to ask, why the harsh reaction?
Could it be because, well, where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire?
Now, folks, you’ve heard it before: The ones who overreact are often the ones with something to hide.
Is Jean-Pierre’s quick dismissal and that stiff upper lip a sign that Doocy struck a chord?
That maybe, just maybe, there’s some truth to the notion that the White House staff are tiptoeing around the commander-in-chief like he’s a tot in a sandbox?
Look, I get it.
She said there will always be books making a ‘variety of claims’ about every administration.
Sure, it’s par for the course.
But when those claims come from the President himself, who according to The Atlantic’s Franklin Foer, felt like he was being ‘babied’—well, we’ve got to sit up and take notice!
Pete Doocy accuses the WH of treating Joe Biden like a BABY and KJP LOSES IT!!!
Bravo for holding them accountable 👏🏻

Doocy to KJP on Frank Foer book excerpt: "–when staff walked back what sounded like a call for regime change in Russia, the President, 'rather than owning his failure, he fumed to friends about how he was treated like toddler. Was John Kennedy ever babied like that?'" pic.twitter.com/3qqVIu4CY3

Let’s not forget, DailyMail.com also poked around, asking why President Biden had fewer morning events—attributing it to his advanced age.
Again, Jean-Pierre called it a ‘ridiculous assumption.’ Really?
Is it ridiculous to wonder why the oldest president in U.S. history isn’t exactly a morning person?
Is it ‘ridiculous’ to question whether age is affecting his stamina, his schedule, his leadership?
The Daily Mail also confirms KJP’s outburst:
Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday rejected a claim made in a new book that said President Joe Biden had fumed over his aides treating him like a ‘toddler’ after his accidental call to remove Russian President Vladimir Putin from power.
In The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future, The Atlantic’s Franklin Foer wrote that Biden felt like he was being babied after he quipped that Putin ‘cannot remain in power,’ while addressing a crowd in Warsaw, Poland in March 2022.
During Tuesday’s press briefing, Fox News’ Peter Doocy pointed out that Biden, at age 80, is the ‘oldest president in U.S. history,’ and then asked why White House staff treated him like a ‘baby.’
‘No one treats the president of the United States, the commander-in-chief, like a baby,’ Jean-Pierre answered. ‘That’s ridiculous.’
The press secretary went on to say that there will always be a ‘range of books about every administration’ that are filled with a ‘variety of claims.’
‘That is not unusual,’ she continued. ‘That happens all the time. And we’re not going to litigate thoes here. That’s something that we’re not going to speak to.’
She then spoke to some of those claims.
‘There is one thing that I do want to – ’cause I think I was asked this question last week by one of your colleagues about this particular excerpt that they were referring to.’
DailyMail.com had asked Jean-Pierre about Biden’s admission that he felt ‘tired,’ attributing that to his advanced age, pointing to how few morning events were held at the White House.
Jean-Pierre called it a ‘ridiculous assumption to make.’
Ladies and gentlemen, when the people asking the questions are dismissed as ‘ridiculous,’ it’s time to ask: ‘What are they trying to hide?’
Because in my book, a defensive answer is often a tell-tale sign that you’re inching closer to an inconvenient truth!”
So, folks, let’s keep asking those ‘ridiculous’ questions because sometimes, just sometimes, they lead to revelations that are anything but ridiculous.
Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open, America.
There’s more to this story, and we’re gonna get to the bottom of it!
