Representative Miller-Meeks recently appeared on FOX business declaring that during his SOTU address, President Biden was “amped up” and “yelling.” (Upon video review: Nope.) Then without proof, Meeks proclaimed Biden to be on some sort of stimulant such as Ritalin or a steroid.

A reckless diagnosis made from the cheap seats. Meeks said: “We anticipate that for this first debate he (President Biden) will be on something, and the response of the press has been to cover it up.” Cover up what? Meeks offers not a hint of proof while she hurls allegations.

Despite Meeks positioning herself as expert on cognitive decline, she seems blind to Trump’s “yelling,” “amped up,” rambling speeches and interviews. Maybe Meeks is using classic Republican projection to cover up for Trump who thinks Nikki Haley was Speaker of the House on Jan. 6.

Or distracting us because Donald thinks he’s running against Obama. Covering the guy who said “the Continental army took over the airports” in 1775 during the Revolutionary war. Another beauty: Trump's admiration for the “late, great Hannibal Lecter,” “A wonderful man.

” (A fictional serial killer and a cannibal.) Meeks and hers have taken us beyond tiresome political hackery and bickering and into perilous territory of reckless diagnoses and constant baseless accusations. It is well beyond irresponsible for a public servant to trade in such dishonesty and in the service of a convicted felon.
