Fox News personality and former pro wrestler Tyrus offered a different take on the bombshell revelation that President Joe Biden’s severely hampered mental acuity has been covered up by his closest aides since the days of his 2020 campaign during a network segment on Friday.
Tyrus’ remarks came after anchor Shannon Bream referenced a Wall Street Journal bombshell published last week that cited dozens of sources who revealed that Biden’s closest aides and advisers hid his condition using various methods as best they could throughout the duration of his term.
Tyrus didn’t blame Biden for the scandal but rather those who worked behind the scenes to not only shield his condition but who also likely ran the country as unelected bureaucrats.
“Reported nearly 50 sources, Wall Street Journal, page after page after page of him not meeting with his Cabinet secretaries, people not being able to get in touch with him, no access to him, him being given pre-planned questions, all of this stuff, not one question about that in the briefing today was shocking to me,” Bream said.
“Interviewing him is criminal. It’s even more criminal to interview him to go down memory lane. It’s not a joke,” Tyrus began.
“This man, whatever he was, he used to be, Father Time is doing what Father Time does. He can barely walk. He’s not in these, we know now that the staffers are making decisions and this, that, whatever,” he continued. “His legacy is basically that they knew that he was unfit. We were talking during the break. If they, once they knew, if they cared about the country, they should have put Kamala in two years ago.
“Good, bad, or indifferent, she has her faculties together. Asking him now to come in and talk to Congress is criminal. He does, he cannot do it anymore,” Tyrus continued.
“The reason why there’s no fighting and arguing over President Trump interviewing and doing these things is because he can’t make that argument. And anyone else who comes out and say it, then they have to admit the fact that they’ve been making these decisions for him the whole time. I think we need to stop blaming Joe Biden and looking at who has been running the show,” Tyrus added.
“It’s not fair. It’s, I don’t, as a comedian, I don’t make fun of Joe Biden anymore. Because you’re making fun of somebody who can’t defend themselves.”

Outgoing White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was shredded over the weekend, in large part for hiding Biden’s failing mental condition, after she claimed hers was the “best team in the business.”
Critics of President Biden on X swiftly challenged the post, disputing her claim and accusing Jean-Pierre of consistently misrepresenting facts on behalf of the president throughout his tenure.

“It takes an army to come up with non-answers and lies,” conservative columnist Tim Young commented on Jean-Pierre’s post.
Washington Times columnist Tim Murtaugh gave the outgoing press secretary and her staff a stern goodbye, writing, “This ‘best team in the business’ lied to the world about the mental & physical fitness of the president and, ultimately, failed. Their work led to Trump’s huge win, which was a complete repudiation of everything they did in the most important jobs they’ll ever have.”
“Nice work,” he added.
The Free Press columnist Eli Lake asked, “In what business is this the best team?”
