A new book revealed that aides to Kamala Harris secretly planned for the possibility of Joe Biden's death in office as early as 2023, further fueling concerns over the former president's age and fitness for office.
Questions about Biden's ability to serve another term grew throughout his presidency, with critics pointing to his advanced age and moments of confusion. Despite mounting concerns, Biden and his team insisted he was fit for re-election.
However, behind closed doors, Democratic officials reportedly held secret discussions about contingency plans in case Biden had to withdraw or was unable to complete his term, the Guardian reported.
Harris' aides went even further, developing a strategy in case of Biden's death, including a "death-pool roster" of federal judges who could swear her in, according to "Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House," a forthcoming book by journalists Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes. The book paints a picture of a Democratic Party bracing for worst-case scenarios while publicly backing Biden.
According to the book, the tipping point came on June 27, 2024, during a disastrous debate performance against now-President Donald Trump, which intensified calls for Biden to step down. After weeks of pressure from party leaders, Biden ultimately withdrew in July, leaving Harris as the nominee—though she later lost the general election to Trump.

I know I'm being cynical, but not as much as the democrats.
Discuss.
The source should be Latin Times via MSN.
I’m assuming they were planning for his death the day he was sworn in. I certainly expected it.
I’m guessing one of which was to reduce Kamala’s daily booze allowance before any swearing-in.
She’s a lush. Always half drunk or high or both.
I would say she knew he had cancer....even before she ran..
The pre-planning on it’s own is not much of a surprise.
Any campaign for a major office will have several contingency plans. The disturbing part is the amount of data Kamala’s campaign kept hidden from the public and it’s degree of importance to the nation and our operational state of readiness.
I don’t know if these two scandals (cognitive decline and cancer diagnosis) have legs, but in my opinion they’re HUGE. Biden’s inner circle, including doctors and the mainstream media, colluded to keep these things hidden from the American public.
The REAL story is that Sleepy Joe had the best medical care on earth, and either they "somehow" they missed cancer until it was in stage FIVE... or they were all lying and covering up for him yet again. Anyone wanna take some bets?
I’d say both.
That’s most likely correct.
> but in my opinion they’re HUGE <
I agree. But many folks still get all their information from the mainstream media. So it all depends on how NBC, etc. treat this. Unfortunately, I think they will put out a few stories now, then bury it.
Think about our withdrawal from Afghanistan. That was a disgrace, and a debacle. But there were no calls for investigations, or accountability. It just faded from the news, and fast.
🙁
Late Summer of 2021, the msm reported that Heels Up had possible Havana Syndrome; a One Day news cycle, then all was forgotten.
And, considering Biden's mental and physical state when he took office, this was definitely the proper thing to do.
Laura Loomer just said he nearly died on the operating table a year ago when he supposedly had a colonoscopy which was a cancer surgery.
And she’s still a front runner for the Dims in 2028.
They (Joe’s puppeteers) hoped to backdoor Harris into the Oval Office.
She’s been ‘flexible’ her entire political life, that’s why they chose her.
Nothing to discuss.
Its an actuality.
It happened.
The biggest problem was that they didn’t have a succession plan that wasn’t worse than what they had with Biden. The plan was to stop Trump, and that was really about as far as they got.
