“Joe Biden is, like, dead. Not literally. Like, he, like, can’t say a sentence.”
Undercover reporters with O'Keefe Media Group have discovered that Henry Appel, a National Security Advisor inside the White House, was aware of President Joe Biden's cognitive decline well before that was unintentionally revealed to the American public during the June 27 debate against Donald Trump.
Unwittingly speaking to an undercover reporter on a fake date, a method of investigation that has become synonymous with O'Keefe, Appel stated that "Joe Biden is, like, dead. Not literally. Like, he, like, can't say a sentence." Appel, who works for Jake Sullivan, remembers taking a call from Biden while Biden was on a trip with Sullivan. Biden asked for Sullivan and Appel said that he had to remind the president that Sullivan was literally on the trip with him.
"He's like really like progressed in his old age. Everybody recognizes it. I can't believe it wasn't a bigger scandal earlier," Appel said.

He went on to describe Biden’s deteriorating communication skills as a concern, adding, '[Biden] can't say a sentence.'"
Appel goes on to tell his date that he and other Biden admin staffers are "trauma-bonded" after President Donald Trump won a second term in the White House because they're all "going through it together." Despite that, he thought Trump was going to win because he "thought Kamala ran a terrible campaign." When asked why, he said "She just doesn't believe in anything."
"There were a lot of tears the next morning," Appel said of the win. He remarked that he's not looking forward to the prospect of finding a new job and that he and his colleagues are "also, like, kind of concerned about like, them coming after us." He was referring to the incoming Trump administration. "They'd like investigate us, or whatever," he said.
Appel spoke about the aftermath of Biden's dropping out of the race, when he "passed the torch" to his Vice President Harris. "I know that like Biden and his team like felt—did not like that they got pushed aside."
O'Keefe later confronted Appel, saying "you're lucky I'm not a Chinese spy."
