A great deal hinged on Joe Biden’s performance during Thursday evening’s State of the Union address. The White House knew more than anything that Biden had to dispel concerns regarding his age and cognitive decline. Naturally, the mainstream media did its part to help shore up this narrative affirming Biden’s presidential competence. They wound up choosing the same entry from the thesaurus to characterize his delivery: “fiery.”

I’m sure it was just a coincidence.
But it didn’t work for those of us who saw and heard Biden’s loud and angry delivery, punctuated by constant slurring and slip-ups. One expert says that Biden’s performance featured the telltale signs of being medicated.
Dr. Carole Lieberman, a forensic psychiatrist specializing in elderly dementia patients, pointed out that Biden’s increased speed and volume during the address, contrary to his usual slow and stumbling demeanor, could be indicative of stimulant usage, potentially Adderall or another amphetamine.
“[Adderall]’s given to focus someone’s attention so if you give it to someone who is not focused and give it to them ahead of a big event like the State of the Union, it will improve their focus,” Lieberman told the Washington Times. “But it’s treating the symptoms rather than boosting the brain and it’s addictive so it’s dangerous.”
As compelling and convincing as Lieberman’s theory is, there’s actually more evidence Biden was not his usual self during the State of the Union.
I previously pointed to Biden’s brief encounter with reporters on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews, where he had curiously become his trademark low-energy, glitchy self. His explanation for his use of the word “illegals” to describe an illegal immigrant—which irked many in his party—was, to say the least, unimpressive.
“Do you regret using the word ‘illegal’ to describe immigrants last night?”

But even more indicative that something had changed in Biden was his campaign speech in Philadelphia, Penn., on Friday, which was virtually a carbon copy of his State of the Union speech, yet it was a disaster.
At one point in the speech, he declared, “Pennsylvania, I have a message for you: send me to Congress!”
