Obligations, Opportunities and a Cabinet Oligarchy

Former President Biden’s cognitive abilities were noticeably in decline by the end of 2023. There are five people of which you probably haven’t heard. At least I didn’t because I don’t take particular interest in the aides of the president. However, as quoted in an interview with Joe Scarborough, the authors of a recent book about the Biden administration, Original Sin quoted the following people:

“The people in charge were [top Biden advisers] Mike Donilon, Steve Riccheti, Bruce Reed, Anthony Bernal, the first lady’s chief of staff, the first lady, and Annie Tomasini,” Thompson responded. “Those are the people that saw him the most and that had the most control over what he was doing and his day-to-day.” Five people who attend meetings to which you will not likely be invited. Five people who, on a regular basis, occupy rooms that you will likely never see. Five people who, according to mounting evidence, ran the executive branch of our government, as our president’s mental abilities declined. I voted in the election of 2020, and I didn’t see any of those names on the ballot. I don’t think I missed them.

We have been sending earth designed machines into space beginning in 1957. Twenty years later, Voyager was launched and sent past the planets in our solar system, and then into deep space. Voyager’s mission is to seek life in deep space. We earthlings have also sent radio waves into space to see if there is any intelligent life out there. We have been waiting for a response from extraterrestrials with baited breath.
