X was abuzz on Friday when the question was asked about what Jill Biden did at a cabinet-level meeting.
Joe Biden, who has abdicated all of his responsibilities, has not held a meeting in over 11 months. Jill was introduced at the beginning of the meeting, and then Jill spoke about the White House Women’s Health Initiative. She spoke for a short time, but she went through the various initiatives they have taken. You would expect Joe to outline these for the Cabinet. The full comments can be found here.
Many people are now wondering what happened and talking about Edith Wilson.
This is the end of her words. I’ve got a lot to say about this look:
This is so bizarre on so many levels. pic.twitter.com/Ote4CQpk96

We must continue to move forward. We must continue to work across the government and private sectors to encourage innovative health research aimed at women.
It’s time for a new chapter in health care in America, a story where women are given the answers they need, the United States is home to some of the most cutting-edge research in the entire world, and everyone can live healthier lives.
Joe is the only person not clapping. He just looks away.
Everyone else was clapping the same way as you used to for Soviet leaders because you had to submit to the power. It looked that way to me. It made me wonder about the deal that was done to get him out. She didn’t want to leave; does it make sense that she would have to do things to appear significant?
It was going viral also on X. People asked why her signature appeared embossed on the honorary legislation folders.

According to RealClear Politics White House reporter Philip Melanchthonwegmann:
A senior Hill aide tells me that when lawmakers are given a signed copy of their bill, the folder containing has both President Biden and First Lady Biden’s signatures emblazoned on the cover. https://t.co/NfUjUUAC00

What the hell is going on? Why is her name on the legislation folders? She has no role in the process. He is the one who signs off legislation; she does not. This is the Presidential Seal. Why is her name under it? What’s the answer? Does this have more to do with her desire for power or something else? She was not elected to anything. What else has she done?
They talk about “democracy”, and “norms” but they seem to ignore them when it comes to themselves.
Many people had questions about her job. We will keep working on this and keep you informed:
That seems very, very weird to me. https://t.co/3mrNJ0P7sE

She’s on the verge of losing all her power. She thought that she would get four years more, but now she only gets to return to Delaware with Joe.
