I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Biden Administration
I work for the president but like-minded colleagues and I have vowed to bite members of his Secret Service detail and poop on his floors.

Slate is taking the rare step of publishing an anonymous op-ed essay. We have done so at the request of the author, a senior official in the Biden administration whose identity is known to us and whose reputation as a good boy would be jeopardized by its disclosure. We believe publishing this essay anonymously is the only way to deliver an important perspective to our readers. We invite you to submit a question about the essay or our vetting process here.

President Joe Biden is facing a test to his presidency unlike any faced by a modern American leader.

It’s not just the global pandemic. Or the park closures it precipitated. Or even his controversial and unpopular decision to switch the White House kitchen from Side by Side Pork and Rabbit Stew Adult Dog Food to plain old Purina Dry Dog Chow.

The dilemma—which he does not fully grasp—is that many of his so-called best friends are working diligently from within to muzzle parts of his agenda and curb his worst inclinations.

I would know. I am one of them. Who’s one of them? I am. Yes, I am! Yes, I am!

To be clear, ours is not the popular “Republicanism” of the right. We don’t really follow politics, and besides, those guys seem awful.

But our family has been loyal Americans ever since my ancestors emigrated from Germany in 1945, and the president continues to act like a bad president who is being very bad. That is why many Biden adoptees have vowed to do what we can to shepherd our democratic institutions to safety while keeping Mr. Biden on a short leash until the voters can bring him to heel.

Than mere humans. Very limited scope of senses compared to dogs.
