The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

More eloquently put, "Who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?"
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

Schumer: ‘We Didn’t’ Mislead the American Public About Biden’s Cognitive Decline

Pam Key 5 Jan 2025

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) claimed Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he and other top Democrats did not mislead the American public about President Joe Biden’s decline in mental acuity.

Host Kristen Welker said, “Obviously, there has been a lot of focus on President Biden’s role in this. You were, obviously, in close contact with President Biden well before the public tuned into that debate that ultimately led to him stepping down. I want to play you a little bit of something you said last year. Take a look.

In 2024, on Capitol Hill, Schumer said, “I talked to President Biden regularly, sometimes several times in a week or usually several times in a week. His mental acuity is great. It’s fine. It’s as good as it’s been over the years, and this right-wing propaganda that his mental acuity has declined is wrong.”

Welker asked, “What do you say that you and top Democrats misled them about President Biden’s mental acuity?”

Schumer said, “Look, we didn’t. Let’s look at President Biden. he’s had an amazing record. The legislation we passed, one of the most significant groups of legislation since Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society, putting 235 judges of record. He’s a patriot. He’s a great guy, and when he stepped down he did it on his own because he thought it was better not only for the Democratic Party for America, we should all salute him. We should all salute him.”

NBC News' Kristen Welker confronted the senator with a clip of Schumer talking about Biden on February 13, 2024. Schumer said, "His mental acuity is great. It’s fine. It’s as good as it’s been over the years. All this right-wing propaganda that his mental acuity has declined is wrong."

After playing the clip, Welker asked Schumer what he would tell Americans who think they were misled by top Democrats. Schumer reportedly told the president he needed to drop out of the race after the debate.

"We didn't. Let's look at President Biden. He’s had an amazing record. The legislation we passed, one of the most significant groups of legislation since Lyndon Johnson’s great society, putting in 235 judges, a record, and he’s a patriot. He’s a great guy, and when he stepped down he did it on his own because he thought it was better, not only for the Democratic Party, for America. We should all salute him. We should all salute him," Schumer said.

Van Jones: People Around Biden Covered Up Him Being ‘in Bad Shape’, Schumer’s Lying About That

Ian Hanchett 7 Jan 2025

On Monday’s broadcast of “CNN NewsNight,” CNN Political Commentator and former Obama Adviser Van Jones said that people around President Joe Biden covered up the fact that he “was in bad shape” and Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is lying about whether Democrats misled the public on the subject.

After viewing video of Schumer denying Democrats covered up on Biden’s acuity, [relevant exchange begins around :] Jones stated, “Look, obviously, Biden was in bad shape. And I was surprised and other people were surprised who were not having regular contact with Biden. Biden had done a good job in the interview with Anderson Cooper. So, those of us at CNN — but there were people who were close who must have known better and people should just say — look, obviously, a lot was known and wasn’t said and wasn’t shared. And it’s — now it’s leaking out all the time anyway. So, it’s just, look, I think to have any credibility and integrity, people have to quit playing around. Schumer’s nose is going to start growing if he keeps doing stuff like that.”

Later in the segment, Jones said that Biden “has good days and bad days.”

Jones further stated, “I think the tell was not putting him out there very much. So, it was like, when he wasn’t being put out there very much, that was the tell.”

Chuck Schumer is a congenital liar just like his lifetime friend Joe Biden is.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
