WASHINGTON, D.C. — The White House held an emergency press conference after Biden's COVID diagnosis to assure the nation that whoever is actually running the country right now is still completely healthy.
"Yes, the President has COVID but the person running the country — Bob? I think Bob is in charge today — is in perfect health at the moment," said gay black Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. "Don't worry everyone! Bob's got everything under control!"
The press room erupted into a flurry of questions wanting to know who "Bob" was, but Jean-Pierre ignored them to flip through her notebook for several minutes before saying "Oh, I'm sorry, I made a mistake. Bob was in charge yesterday. It's Doug's turn today."
As the press began to frantically ask about "Doug," Jean-Pierre concluded by saying "The President has been clear from the beginning, and agrees, that the time to be clear about our agreement is now, and this COVID diagnosis will not affect his ability to act as President while Doug runs the country today. Thank you very much." She then walked out of the room.
At publishing time, anonymous sources confirmed that Doug is on vacation this week so Sam is actually running the country.
UPDATE: Sam has COVID.

As close as he gets is that he identifies as a healthy person.
Barack and Xi are both physically well.
BOB is Barrack OBama
Bob the temp
But sadly happily, it is you suckers who are gonna die.
So have a good day, and remember: Wear your masks when you
go to the polls for the voting charad... ahem - when you
go vote to re-elect us all. Again, have a pleasant, meek, and contentedly deluded day. Thank you all."

Xao Bi-Dung too!
WH is right — the person running the country is not Biden.
Susan Rice?
Wait, what? You mean only ONE of senile Sleepy Joe's handlers is running the country? I don't believe it. I know there must be an entire committee of incompetent handlers running the country ... with senile Sleepy Joe being solely used as that handling committee's puppet mouthpiece.
O-”Bob”-ma
The Babylon Bee is right on target, as usual.
The truth is that we can only guess at who is actually running the country. We do know that the country isn’t being run for us.
Most of the routine stuff is handled by Rajiv and Sanjay from their cubicles in Bangalore.
And just who might that be?
God help us, and I have a feeling she will be POTUS because I can’t imagine Biden lasting all the way to Jan.20th 2025, can you?
Unless both brandon and poke-a-honky are rendered nonfunctional at the same time pelouzy can’t become president.

Pretty scary to see that non elected bureaucrats such as Secretary of State are in the line up. Deep state starts making sense now
