EXCLUSIVE: Speaker Mike Johnson (nprofile…vhtk) tells Bari Weiss (nprofile…v56k) that President Biden hasn’t been in charge for a while.
In January 2024, when Johnson and Biden were alone in the Oval Office, the president couldn’t recall an important executive order he had signed just three weeks earlier.
Johnson recalled telling Biden: “Sir, why did you pause LNG exports to Europe? Liquefied natural gas is in great demand by our allies. Why would you do that?”
Biden, according to Johnson, was stunned. “I didn’t do that.”
“He genuinely didn’t know what he had signed,” Johnson said. “And I walked out of that meeting with fear and loathing because I thought, ‘We are in serious trouble—who is running the country?’ Like, I don’t know who put the paper in front of him, but he didn’t know.”
