Axios: Leaked Documents Show Biden's Staff Prepares Detailed Event Instructions for 18 Months
Jul 7, 2024, 11:01 PM
Leaked documents reveal that President Biden's staffers prepare detailed event preparation documents, including large print and photos, to guide him through simple tasks such as walking to a podium. These documents, which are used even for small fundraisers, include instructions like 'Walk to podium' and 'View from podium.' A staffer remarked that the level of detail is akin to preparations for a NATO summit. White House spokesperson Andrew Bates defended the practice, stating that such approaches are standard for any modern advance team. Axios reported that these detailed instructions have been used for events in the past 18 months.
