A BRAIN SURGEON’S PERSPECTIVE [ON SENILE JOE BIDEN]
[PART 1]
> December 29, 2020
Whether you love or hate President-Elect Joe Biden, or don't care one way or another, isn’t it important to consider his mental health and acuity to hold the Office of President of the United States?
Recall the mainstream media’s almost obsessive preoccupation with President Donald Trump’s health- was he overly obese? Weight to height ratio, where are his medical records, can the White House physician be trusted, etc.
Now, today with Joe Biden there are no questions, no scrutiny, no concerns, for a man who repeatedly exhibits confusion, inability to complete a coherent sentence, much more a thought. “You know the thing... C'mon man...they’re not bad folks”
This is from a non-political neurosurgeon John Robinson, MD, based in Florida.
“Colleagues and Acquaintances.........
First of all, I have had enough of the mainstream media! While I do not consider myself a political person, I am a practicing neurosurgeon with a background in cerebrovascular surgery, and I must scream "Foul!" on the media and here avenge the late Paul Harvey with 'the rest of the story' hidden from the American public!
How many of you know that Joe Biden has had 2 brain surgeries, one on each side of his head?
How many people know that Joe had a head full of blood after an aneurysm exploded in his head in 1988?
A BRAIN SURGEON’S PERSPECTIVE [ON SENILE JOE BIDEN]
[PART 2}
> December 29, 2020
How many know that the resulting brain damage from a subarachnoid hemorrhage, as the blood breakdown products bathe the brain, are significant and create permanent damage, let alone the compression and damage due to the jet of blood from the rupture itself?.
Why has the media not asked for his medical records, list of medications, EEG, or at least an angiogram of his brain's blood vessels? Multi-aneurysm patients like Mr. Biden have a tendency to form new ones and are recommended to have an angiogram every 5 years; where is the report? Really, the NY Times couldn't do a piece on this? How about a CT scan to document what his brain looks like or verify he does not have hydrocephalus or a ventricular peritoneal shunt or seizure disorder? Where is the outrage?
The fact of the matter is the media conspiracy to elect Mr. Biden is unbelievable and wholly liable if he takes the oath of office on January 20, 2021, while overlooking these significant medical issues.
I mean, really, shouldn't there be some sort of medical prerequisite for the Office of President of the United States and all of the stress it induces?
Are we that desperate to install the first black female president? Shouldn't the first black female president be duly elected on her own merits rather than hiding behind a 78-year-old sub-arachnoid hemorrhage survivor?
Love him or hate him, you do have to admire Mr. Biden for overcoming all these issues in the last 38 years but this disqualifies him in my eyes to hold the nuclear codes. Hell, in most states, he couldn't even get a driver’s license without a letter from a neurologist saying he was seizure-free for a year.
Instead, we have almost elected him the leader of the free world and the keeper of the launch codes with no one knowing the truth, no one asking any health questions! Especially when he can’t remember whom he is running against or who his wife is.
Whether you are for Biden or against him, please be honest enough to spread the truth about his medical issues before he's sworn in as our next president with no one knowing the medical issues he suffers from.”

Better report than expected, although it begs the question, 50% loss of what, last in the class level intellect?
From the article: "We saw earlier this year how Joe Biden had no idea what was going on. He thought he heard birds or rain and asked the reporters at his campaign ‘rally’ to come in from the rain and they all looked at each other because they were indoors. You could see that they all were very uncomfortable but they said nothing because they would lose their jobs if they did."
- Our story is that Joe is doing fine, just fine.
Seriously, I think of my Ivy League educated Dem friends who thought people like Reagan and Trump were dunces. They listen to Biden and think what? He is enlightening? Inspirational? Good God, he isn't even coherent. And we trust him with the codes? We don't trust him to take his meds.

I don't think he has parkinson's disease because he doesn't display the movement disorders,
but he does have a mask like facies
like it.
his face is expressionless
bland staring
unless he is on meds that hide the pyramidal symptoms for a while
remember the images of Hitlers shaking hand at the end ?

One more than we were right about. I would rather be wrong.
So they lied to us all through the campaign. Biden, Biden doctors, Mrs. Biden and handlers committed election fraud - of one more dimension.
What is it that gets better "in a couple of months"? Oops, they're lying to us again. If they could bring him back to full cognitive ability, they would have done it already.
Paraphrasing Ben Rhodes? White House press corps average age 25 and know literally nothing. They watched Joe Biden for 15 months and concluded he is - not Trump.

Many people voted for him not for his personality but despite it
to fend off the left
many people would not vote for him due to his personality
I believe he would have had millions more votes
if he was not so crazy
I doubt we have so many antitrumpers if he was not so irritating
and morally lacking
It wasn't just because of pissing off the swamp with some of his tweets, statements
it was not his policies
I believe more than 50 % of voters like his policies but just cannot stomach the man
every time he seems to get traction
he hurts himself with absolutely dumb and often extremely nasty and *cruel* tweets statements that are un necessary
it turns me off
he makes it all about himself in his own warped mind
and that is tiring
his cpac speech started out all right but then he would not suppress his urge to make it all about himself
again and not the policies the philosophy etc
we are so screwed with him
can't live with him and for some without him
God please allow someone to come forward that knocks his damaged goods off stage already
I thank for all the good he did do - and it was immense but please get off the center stage
- but he can't won't due
we KNOW he will run again

from now to a few months ago
the decline is stunning
the handlers must have given him drugs to pump him up
so he could talk at all
now it seems the drugs are not even able to hide his total cognitive failure
the MSM and Dem Party and never Trumpers who tried to cover it up - that was the other BIG lie
shameful
the first big lie is the election was not stolen
the next big lie will be how Kamala is "ready " to take over the reigns of the Presidency
it will be her with the Obamster cable with a hand full of the Clintonites
-
ccp:
the next big lie will be how Kamala is "ready " to take over the reigns of the Presidency
-----------------------
Oh see's ready! And her 0.0% of the primary vote shows the potential of how popular she is, on her own.
That's one reason I posted the Kristi Noem speech. It is a near 100% certainty that Republicans will running against America's first female President in 2024. Kamala or a Republican woman in 2024 will likely become the first woman ELECTED President.
Trump is still fixated on Slow Joe, but he didn't lose to Joe, he lost to the handlers.

meaning short propaganda
paragraph
maybe 1 to 2 softball preplanned questions from one of the friend's of Biden and DNC
etc
he will get adderall and modofinal

that Biden is mentally competent to operates as president
then he would be removed
automatically Harris of course takes over and then she nominates a VP
(val jarrett? abrams ? )
but the nominee has to be confirmed by a majority of both House and Senate
so what happens with Senate being 50 - 50
does Harris who is now president I don't think can break the tie.
first sections of 25th amendment:
Section 1
In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President.
Section 2
Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.

Dr. ccp, After a stroke my brother in law had aphasia. He was quite functional but couldn't come up with basic words like airport and hospital. On the phone he would tell my sister, I'm over her in front of that, not real helpful for location, but could still drive to places if he didn't have to come up with the words. This reminds me of that, but it did lead quickly to much greater deterioration.
As a Republican in fear of Harris, my story is, Biden is fine, no more deranged and demented than any other far Leftist.

Joe
we are now informed
has had lifelong stuttering problem
and that is why he has trouble with speech
and thats all it is folks: :wink:
https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/hannity-biden-stutter-conspiracy-091942907.html
How dare Sean mock and ridicule a stutterer
bottom line all stutterers should be shocked and outraged and vote only for Dems
sorry about your brother in law
who has expressive type aphasia ( I think that is what he has)
that is incredibly frustrating problem to be able to receive and process information to the brain but then not being able to respond because one cannot get words out

At this point in office, Trump had given five news conferences. Obama had given two, George W. Bush three and Clinton five.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/media/press-conferences-biden-administration/2021/03/12/332285e6-81e3-11eb-81db-b02f0398f49a_story.html
By 2014, Senator and then VP Joe Biden had appeared on Meet the Press 59 times.
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2014/aug/27/john-mccain/john-mccain-says-he-holds-record-meet-press-appear/
That is part of what got him to where he is.
What keeps him from answering questions now (other than handlers real fear of exposing his massive cognitive decline)?
It would be nice if the people who really do make the decisions running the country would 'face the nation'.

What a career! After graduating 76th out of 85 in his class, he was first elected to the Senate in 1972, almost 50 years ago. Every Senator dreams of being President and Biden actively pursued that dream since 1987, almost 35 years ago. He served patiently as Obama's Vice President 8 years, then lost four more years deferring to Hillary. Now he is the elected 47th President of the United States, leader of the free world, most powerful man in the world.
It's sad that Joe isn't here with us to enjoy all this.

Is it the argument of the decline deniers that Joe was never any sharper than this?
Over under anyone on when he will step down? Shortly after the midterms I presume. As doctors might say, we already know the rate of decline. I would add, brain deterioration doesn't just affect reading and speaking functions.

Joe retells the coal miner ancestor story that he admitted was BS 16 years ago.
False memory syndrome, selective memory syndromes add to the confusion. It's always been harder to lie and keep your stories straight than to tell the truth, so leftist politicians will have more trouble with aging.
When your lips have been moving for 80 years with reckless regard for the truth, how do you keep track of what has been called out as bunk and what hasn't yet?

Katie Couric didn't correct him. Did she not know? He been a dunce for a very long time, and they've treated him with kid gloves all through it.
Knowing what we know now, that interview is cringe filled. He sits there with his extended arm an inch from her shoulder - dying to run his hands through her hair. Makes an innuendo about opposite sexes interacting right here with you and me (Katie Couric), "we're doing it", both smile. Ugh.
Most offensive: 2012: "They're gonna put y'all back in chains!"

He is talking to blacks about a Republican party led by Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. Scary! He is speaking figuratively, but he is not joking. He is working the game plan. Stoke up the fear of Republicans in the eyes of black voters [since his first term with half-black Barack did nothing for them]. Fear of what? Too much freedom? Not enough growth in government? No mention that the Emancipation Proclamation was a Republican document; segregation was a Democrat program. No foresight that his successor's Republican policies, opposite to theirs would bring blacks the greatest wage growth in a generation and lowest unemployment history. [Could have had that four years sooner.] Besides being wrong on every major foreign policy decision in the last 40 years.
Hatred and fear spewed by the administration that used the IRS to block political opponents from organizing. Most corrupt in history.
This man is evil, the public executor of the high tech lynching of Clarence Thomas with evidence thinner than Tara Reade, the man who turned Bork into a verb, before the politics of personal destruction became "high tech lynching". If he loses the filter he never had, it can only get worse.

very strange
"https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/stacey-lennox/2021/07/01/why-is-kamala-harris-the-only-target-of-leaks-from-the-buttoned-up-biden-administration-n1458785"
obviously this is allowed
perhaps to deflect away from Biden
and let her take heat
First of all what do they mean team Harris and team Biden?
Aren't they all on the same single team?
Second , why are Dems allowing bad press on the very likely next President?
Thirdly , why is is ok to bash a Black Female all of a sudden? I though this group is exempt.
My armchair guess is Biden's close "handlers". are annoyed Harris publicaly
complained about being the "fall guy " over being named border czar
and now this is revenge time.
Anyone else have theories?
Since when do "leaks" ever come out in a Democrat controlled WH?
-
"Aren't they all on the same single team?"
- My take. To us, they're all liberals and should all be on the same page, but since liberalism is all BS, there have to be different ideas about who gets to make it all up and how to carry it out. They have nearly absolute power with one party rule so there are bound to be power struggles. Harris appears certain to be President since Biden appears certain to be not running for reelection and she needs to run as the incumbent. She no doubt tests her power in front of "staff" [puppet master wannebes], but these people know they are the ones who picked her and believe she reports to them (behind the scenes).
An important shift occurred on the Left over the last few decades. I believe Rush L was the first to point it out. We used to call liberal media the 'willing accomplices of the Democrats' and the Left. That is now exactly backwards. The media-academia elite complex is the power center of the Left and calls the shots. The Democrat politicians are now the willing accomplices.
We can't see the formal power structure but it is represented in the room when the important decisions are made. Does it lead to Obama or does it lead to the people who controlled him? We don't really know. No doubt Kamala thinks she is already effectively in charge. Someone is telling her otherwise. We make or break you.
As some conservatives like to say about Democrat in-fighting: Get the popcorn.

I disagree. Look at the scene. It's seems to be in the midst of setting up the event and Joe is oblivious to that and Dr. Jill has to jump in and waive him off. Seriously, he's been in politics since I was a toddler and he doesn't read the room to know to wait for the band to stop playing?
Chaotic, like an Afghan bugout.

That walking back reflects Biden's tendency to go beyond administration policy — only to have aides hedge."

satchel Paige
taking away the. obvious nod to Black's political favor , when invoking Paige's name
it is hard to say he was "great" (or not)
when one looks at his statistics.
But he did not pitch in the major leagues till he was in his 40s so one cannot tell for sure :

One positive thing we can say about the rate of cognitive decline of Joe Biden is that at least he doesn't have to deal with the stress of being president.
-
so he can continue to tell us he is doing ALL HE CAN to control oil prices
and the media will talk this up to cover him
though admitting it will little to zilch :

:roll:
The price went up the minute the election result was announced, we all know because the alleged winner promised to do everything possible to destroy supply and drive up prices. Oil is a futures market and gasoline is priced to cover their replacement cost as prices continue to go up.
I disapprove of using the Strategic Petroleum Reserve for the purpose of covering up bone headed policies instead of reversing them. The strategy of the reserve I assume is to help us through a real crisis like if an enemy (other than Biden) blew up our oil fields, pipelines or tankers.
This pain is by voter choice (if not election steal), so let voters experience all the pain until voters reverse course.
Same for the doubling of natural gas price used to heat most northern homes. We can burn wood and coal until our air looks like New Delhi or we can vote these assholes out at the first opportunity.
Using up the reserve is to decrease or eliminate our readiness for what may come next which is worse, like when Obama-Biden depleted our N95 stocks and never replenished them. 'Leave the country worse off than you found it' should be their campaign slogan.

But first my post from 9/23:

abortion (??!!) - get pregnant - call your telemedicine physician to get a pill (akin to taking a motrin for a headache) and terminate your pregnancy and go about your day now that your cause of your headache is gone - no biggy. ( :-o :-()
health care - the answer is the rich should pay for all

Biden vitriol:
"So I ask every elected official in America, how do you want to be remembered?" Biden said during remarks from the Atlanta University Center Consortium, on the campus of Clark Atlanta University and Morehouse College. "Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?"
Missing from Biden’s speech was the fact that George Wallace, Bull Connor, and Jefferson Davis were all Democrats.
https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/matt-margolis/2022/01/12/joe-biden-doesnt-want-you-know-this-about-george-wallace-n1548845
In his first run for President, Biden boasted to southern voters that the southern part of Delaware is "culturally part of Dixie" and reminded them "that former Gov. George Wallace praised him as one of the most outstanding young politicians of America."
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-himself-has-stood-with-george-wallace-in-the-past
---------------------------------------
'Yeah, I was with the South on slavery'. This is two decades into his Senate service, not when he was in Kindergarden or senile.
His own VP called him a racist: "I don't believe you're a racist Joe, but..."
Sexist too. Where is the personnel file on Tara Reade? It's locked up at the University of Delaware. The Left stormed the capitol over Brett Kavanaugh and brought forward his accuser. Unlock the file, Joe. America wants to know.

Adding this: He even lost Peggy Noonan with his Georgia hate speech:

Today:
'I used to give out my phone number, can't do that anymore,' he also told the crowd. 'They don't even allow me to have a phone anymore.'
That sounds perfectly normal to him, someone tells him what he can and cannot do, all day, every day. Perhaps Secret Service in this case or just handlers.
Isn't that kind of weird? Who has authority over the singular executive of the most poweful country on earth? The heads of the co-equal branches of legislative and judiciary? No. Not really. The head of Russia or China or the US military? No, they don't have the power or authority. The people who tell the President of the United States he can't have a phone (or take another question) works for him! Who knew?!
We could find out who really runs the country just by getting him to answer his own statement, who are the "they" who tell him what he can and can't do, all day long?
Klein? Obammer? Who? Who pulls the strings?

The New York Times now reports "a half-dozen meetings” at which the United States gave intelligence about Russia’s plans for war to senior Chinese officials, who pretended they had no idea.
Senior American officials decided to present intelligence on the Russian troop buildup around Ukraine to senior Chinese officials to try to get them to persuade Mr. Putin to stand down…
Actual tape of the meetings:
US: Look, we’re telling you, we have access to all the Russian military networks, they’re doing this.
PRC: Oh wow, you guys are amazing! This is even better than all that gene editing technology from 2015.
US: Gene editing technology?
PRC: Never mind. ALL the networks? Like all of them?
US: I mean, we don’t want to give too much away, but - this is just between us, right?
PRC: Oh, yes, of course. Trust us, we don’t want war either. We believe in the territorial integrity of all nations, though not as much as we did a few years ago before we started building aircraft carriers.
US: Then yes, we can confirm, ALL the networks. Even the double-secret air-gapped one.
PRC: Hold on, we have to make a call.
—
Meanwhile, back in the real world, the Chinese were not just well aware of Bad Vlad’s plans, they were giving him suggestions for D-Day (anytime after the Winter Olympics, because Mao forbid the world not get to watch those in all their glory).
This level of genius is hard to imagine. It’s almost like the man supposedly in charge of the United States executive branch is in severe cognitive decline.
Just wait until Uncle Joe decides to share details of Israel’s plans to hit Iran’s nuclear facilities with the mullahs, just so Iran knows how serious Israel is!

Biden is open and honest with the Chinese
but he lies to his own people daily
same as defend Ukrainian border but screw us all over with no border protection
for the US
he was always a dirtball
I never like him
and neither did anyone else which is why he was a 3 time loser till obama snaked him into the WH

Every time Joe Biden speaks
It really is inspiring
He simply has to say “Hello”
And businesses start hiring
He utilizes flurries
Of rhetorical devices
Before a speech is finished
You can see a drop in prices
Every phrase he utters has
The virtue of concision
His sure and forceful comment
Require no revision
He’s calm and understated
Relatable by choice
To get his point across
He never has to raise his voice
His cadences are elegant
His similes are taught
His audience loves boarding his
Delightful train of thought
He’s sure to make a breakthrough
If negotiation stalls
If only heads of state
Would just agree to take his calls
Simply ask Obama
For he told us we should know
There’s no one on the planet
Who can get things past old Joe
There’s wisdom in his bearing
Conviction in his smile
It’s said the man is peerless
In his reach across the aisle
Oh yes, Joe Biden’s speeches are
Impressive and persuasive
The way a colonoscopy
In minimally invasive

Biden:
"My message to the companies running gas stations and setting prices at the pump is simple: this is a time of war and global peril," Biden said. "Bring down the price you are charging at the pump to reflect the cost you're paying for the product. And do it now."
my message to Joe:
all environmental lobbies academics and politicians and all Democrats should have every penny the make over the cost of bread water should be confiscated and put into a fund to pass on to every gas paying American

"It's important to carefully choose which RINO will lose with dignity in the general election."
Question is, who will govern best? And no one governs best without winning.
Main point was, we didn't need a nice guy; we needed a street fighter.
Among the strange things coming out of that, a New York developer, billionaire, becomes hero of rural America and working people. Not because he was one of them (he didn't pretend to be) but because he would fight for them.
Besides no response to "they're gonna put y'all back in chains!", he folded like a cheap suit in the Candy Crowley moment. He hadn't done his homework. Some aide wrote some line about Obama not calling Benghazi attack terrorism. Crowley wrongly said he did when in fact h had spoken out of both sides of his mouth. Romney stood down with a white flag making everyone wrong look right. Never should have made that point without being ready to back it up in a two against one matchup.
He also surrendered when he needed to defend the value of the industry he once worked in, capitalism.
Dems and media: Mitt, you laid off all those people you mean, greedy, self centered SOB.
Mitt response: Sorry about that.

His sure and forceful comment
Require no revision
He’s calm and understated
Relatable by choice
To get his point across
He never has to raise his voice
His cadences are elegant
His similes are taught
His audience loves boarding his
Delightful train of thought
He’s sure to make a breakthrough
If negotiation stalls
If only heads of state
Would just agree to take his calls
Simply ask Obama
For he told us we should know
There’s no one on the planet
Who can get things past old Joe
There’s wisdom in his bearing
Conviction in his smile
It’s said the man is peerless
In his reach across the aisle
Oh yes, Joe Biden’s speeches are
Impressive and persuasive
The way a colonoscopy
In minimally invasive

You like? Name is at the end, poet "Tarzana Joe"(.com). He comes on the Hugh Hewitt show once in a while with timely material. Does work for hire as well. Maybe you guys can collaborate on the song that turns the nation away from tyranny and civil war.

"Every time Joe Biden speaks
It really is inspiring
He simply has to say “Hello”
And businesses start hiring
He utilizes flurries
Of rhetorical devices
Before a speech is finished
You can see a drop in prices
Every phrase he utters has
The virtue of concision
His sure and forceful comment
Require no revision
He’s calm and understated
Relatable by choice

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2022/07/biden_releases_us_strategic_petroleum_reserves__to_china.html
says on Yahoo propaganda news:
https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/u-announces-coordinated-oil-release-120427141.html
the MSM will carry his coordinated message
don't worry be happy
the commander in chief is using his arsenal to combat the rise in gas prices which of course are due to corona and Trump policies
:roll:
The price went up the minute the election result was announced, we all know because the alleged winner promised to do everything possible to destroy supply and drive up prices. Oil is a futures market and gasoline is priced to cover their replacement cost as prices continue to go up.
I disapprove of using the Strategic Petroleum Reserve for the purpose of covering up bone headed policies instead of reversing them. The strategy of the reserve I assume is to help us through a real crisis like if an enemy (other than Biden) blew up our oil fields, pipelines or tankers.
This pain is by voter choice (if not election steal), so let voters experience all the pain until voters reverse course.
Same for the doubling of natural gas price used to heat most northern homes. We can burn wood and coal until our air looks like New Delhi or we can vote these assholes out at the first opportunity.
Using up the reserve is to decrease or eliminate our readiness for what may come next which is worse, like when Obama-Biden depleted our N95 stocks and never replenished them. 'Leave the country worse off than you found it' should be their campaign slogan.
-
Furthermore,
Reducing inventories is a trigger for raising prices, not for lowering them.
What did he get in return for this? Eliminated trade barriers barriers for all US made products? I missed that announcement.

G M, Great post, pointing this out. It proves what we already knew.
It seems obvious, but when we say Biden or Pres. Biden, we mean that shell we see along with whoever is behind the curtain writing his words, policies and decisions.
Chief of Staff Ron Klain appears to be the point person, but who is his brain trust? Who did he immediately talk to when Biden said we will defend Taiwan and 'they' had to 'correct' him?

I suspect it is obama ; almost for sure
through his minions
who else could be it be....
Larry Fink ? Susan Rice?
Klaus Schwab ?
could be Xi - since China could not have dreamed for a more self destructive pres.

Yes, what a jerk. He's the one raising gas prices.
During Katrina refineries were shut down. The price mechanism allowed scarce supply to flow to it's most valuable use. Prices went up and came back down. No one went to a station and found no gas. The variable that stayed constant was oil company greed, aka trying to stay in business and make a return on investment.
I'm not aware of any refineries on Sanibel Island or inland from there.

who had to be wheeled into the Senate
from wikipedia :
"Toward the end of Thurmond's Senate career, critics suggested his mental abilities had declined. His supporters argued that, while he lacked physical stamina due to his age, mentally he remained aware and attentive, and maintained a very active work schedule, showing up for every floor vote. He stepped down as Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee at the beginning of 1999, as he had pledged to do in late 1997.[284] Retrospectively, a Senate aide stated that "for his last ten years, Thurmond didn’t know if he was on foot or on horseback", while a 2020 New Yorker article stated that he was "widely known" by the end of his career to be "non-compos mentis."
but he did have 4 kids after marrying his second wife age 22 when was 68.
my parents would have thought him a "dirty old man"
I can only imagine what they would have thought about LGLAPNPAPEAIOEINAUNRMEB

During remarks yesterday about civil rights, Biden added another tall tale to his pantheon of pretentious autobiographical prevarications: "I was able to — literally, not figuratively — talk Strom Thurmond into voting for the Civil Rights Act before he died." A quick fact-check reveals that the Civil Rights Act passed when Biden was just 21 — nowhere near the Senate and not even yet 76th out of 85 in his law school class. Thurmond died in 2003 at age 100, so yeah, a lot of things happened before he died, just not what Biden claims. Literally.

The second part could be intentional. The first part could be explained as 'something like WWII'.
The difference though is, which is the rule and which is the exception. Trump 2023 is still sharp compared to Trump of some past year. He talks off the cuff all the time and is going to have some errors and mis-speaks. Biden's cognitive ability started on a lower scale, but is clearly getting worse.

He responded to a reporter’s question whether he supported “a hostages for-a-ceasefire deal[.]” Biden responded with his characteristic precision (White House transcript here:

I confess I’ve no problem with doddering Zhou speaking truthfully about China’s political structure, though admittedly the truth spoken may not serve current diplomatic ends, but think it’s telling senior staff is willing to so publicly cringe as the boss warbles.

Credit where credit is due, I like that he said that. I think US Presidents should call for free and fair elections in places like China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, if they are going to comment on other people's business at all.
And that free Taiwan never was under the rule of the Chinese Communists.
Yes there is a time and place for diplomacy and zipping up the truth, but what was his alternative, say Xi is a great man benevolently serving the people of China?
It's also a sign he isn't fully beholden to his advisers (against all other signs that he is).
Maybe he will blurt out more truths as his filter deteriorates further.
Advisers HATED when another President said, "Mr. Gorbachev...tear down this wall."

Ye gods, imagine the Progressive (meaning ‘regressive’ in actuality, much like the Bolshevik/Menshevik Newspeak pattern) histrionics were Trump to, say, seek regime change in Iran instead of, go figure, handing them tens of billions of dollars, supporting their nuclear ambitions, incentivizing hostage taking, to name just a few wholly inexplicable administration habits.
I’m not deep into Israeli politics, but it doesn’t take too many clues to look at the region and surmise which nations in the region offer stability and adhere to Western values, with Israel being far and away the front runner there. Why the US would want to destabilize it is therefore a perplexing question

Quite a campaign slogan. For Trump:
Special counsel describes Biden as ‘elderly man with a poor memory’ in eyebrow-raising report
The Hill News / by Brett Samuels / February 08, 2024 at 04:29PM
Special counsel Robert Hur on Thursday released a 388-page report on President Biden’s retention of classified material, finding the president frequently showed limitations with his memory and recall.
While the report concluded no charges should be brought against the president, its language describing Biden, 81, is likely to be campaign fodder for Republicans who have repeatedly raised questions about the president’s ability to serve.
Some of the language came off looking like a gift to Trump’s presidential campaign.
In opting not to bring charges, Hur cited the shortage of evidence, but also how Biden would present himself to a jury.
“We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” Hur wrote.
“Based on our direct interactions with and observations of him, he is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify reasonable doubt. It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”
The report on more than one occasion refers to Biden struggling to remember things when he spoke to a ghostwriter for his memoir, as well as when he was speaking to investigators.
Hur cited Biden’s 2017 conversations with ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer, which Hur described as “painfully slow, with Mr. Biden struggling to remember events and straining at times to read and relay his own notebook entries.”
“In his interview with our office, Mr. Biden's memory was worse,” Hur wrote.
A pro-Trump super PAC quickly made use of the report.
“If you're too senile to stand trial, then you're too senile to be president. Joe Biden is unfit to lead this nation,” Alex Pfeiffer, communications director for the pro-Trump super PAC Make America Great Again Inc., said in a statement.
Hur’s report is likely to set off a fury with Biden supporters. Democratic strategist Paul Begala, speaking Thursday afternoon on CNN, described some of the remarks as cheap shots.Biden’s personal and White House lawyers wrote a letter to Hur on Monday upon the conclusion of the investigation arguing the special counsel’s treatment of the president was unfair and called the repeated references to his memory “gratuitous.”
“It is one thing to observe President Biden's memory as being ‘significantly limited’ on certain subjects. It is quite another to use the more sweeping and highly prejudicial language employed later in the report,” White House special counsel Richard Sauber and personal attorney Bob Bauer wrote to Hur.
“This language is not supported by the facts, nor is it appropriately used by a federal prosecutor in this context,” they added. “We request that you revisit your descriptions of President Biden's memory and revise them so that they are stated in a manner that is within the bounds of your expertise and remit.”
Biden’s personal attorney, Bob Bauer, issued a statement Thursday that chastised Hur and his team for “investigative excess” and complained that the special counsel had overstepped with its lengthy report.
Bauer did not directly bring up the references to Biden’s memory, but it was clear he was taking umbrage with the nature of parts of the report.
“Very little in this opus adds to a clear, succinctly stated understanding of a straightforward conclusion: no misconduct occurred, no charges are warranted,” Bauer said in a statement.
“Throughout this process, a guiding principle has been to protect the integrity and independence of this investigation,” Bauer added. “Based on the facts and the law, the Special Counsel in this case had no choice but to find that criminal charges were not warranted. He had other choices, which should have been guided by the Department’s rules, policies, and practices, and he made the wrong ones.”
The president’s age has clouded discussions over the presidential race, particularly with Trump, 77, expected to be the GOP nominee. Polls have repeatedly shown voters have concerns about Biden’s age. Other surveys have suggested a large number of Americans are unhappy with the choice of Biden and Trump.
GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley, who is still in the Republican race, has repeatedly pointed to the need for a new generation of leaders in an effort to give her own campaign new life. Trump trounced Haley in the opening contests of the GOP primary.
The report could also spark real worries among Democrats that they could lose the White House if voters fear Biden’s ability to act as president, a notion Biden’s team has repeatedly pushed back upon. Biden is not facing meaningful opposition in his own primary, though long-shot candidate Dean Phillips, a House member from Minnesota, has sought to make his age an issue.
The special counsel at one point in the report wrote that Biden “did not remember when he was vice president,” forgetting when his term ended, and in another instance forgetting when his term began. Hur reported Biden did not remember when his son Beau had died, and his memory “appeared hazy” when speaking about a debate over Afghanistan that was critical to his memoirs.
“In a case where the government must prove that Mr. Biden knew he had possession of the classified Afghanistan documents after the vice presidency and chose to keep those documents, knowing he was violating the law, we expect that at trial, his attorneys would emphasize these limitations in his recall,” Hur wrote.
Biden said in a statement emphasized his own stamina, and noted that he “cooperated completely, threw up no roadblocks, and sought no delays” in Hur’s investigation.
“In fact, I was so determined to give the Special Counsel what they needed that I went forward with five hours of in-person interviews over two days on October 8th and 9th of last year, even though Israel had just been attacked on October 7th and I was in the middle of handling an international crisis,” he said.
Biden would be 86 at the end of a potential second term. The president has said it is fair for voters to consider his age, but he and his team have stressed that he should be judged on his record of achievements while in office.
Twice this week Biden has confused the names of European leaders he met with at a Group of Seven (G-7) Summit early in his presidency.
An NBC News poll published this week found 76 percent of voters, including 54 percent of Democrats, said they had major or moderate concerns when asked whether Biden, 81, has “the necessary mental and physical health to be president for a second term.”

James Comey:
"In this case, given the importance of the matter, I think unusual transparency is in order. Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case.
Robert Hur:
no reasonable jury would convict such a poor decrepit old man.......
It does amaze me how honest at least he is on one point.
That Biden behind the scenes is even worse then we see. Who could have guessed.
Is it not remarkable how the entire Dem machine and MSM attempt to cover up, ignore, and and lie to us about it.
I could just imagine Paul (forehead)Begala going nuts over this admission.
Will he and Carvillian be on CNN or MSNBC tonight denying all this?
-
reminded me of Humphrey Bogart in the 'Caine Mutiny"
when in front of the judges he demonstrated clearly and undeniably he was unfit for the job.
This was what I was hoping for.
The reaction of the press was telling they have finally agreed.
It was the first time in yrs we have seen a media tag him with unwanted questions.
Maybe I heard it wrong but I thought he said President of Mexico when I think he meant Israel.
He WILL not be the nominee.
Clear panic on the DEM side
and the smell of blood on ours.
This is the analogy I saw:

Biden raged against Hur’s description of him as likely to be let off by a jury on the grounds of perceived senility. “I am well-meaning, and I’m an elderly man and I know what the hell I’m doing,” Biden fumed. “I’ve been president and I put this country back on its feet. I don’t need his recommendation.”
anger not unusual in old person whose defensive about their memory.
" “My memory is fine,” Biden snapped at one reporter, telling another, “My memory is so bad I let you speak.”
this is the funniest thing he has ever said to reporter who happened to be Fox's Peter Doocy who if he remembered who he was he would not have called on him first.
" “In addition, I know there’s some attentioin paid to the language in the report about my recollection of events, there’s even some reference that I don’t remember when my son died. How the hell dare he raise that? Frankly when I was asked the question, I thought to myself it wasn’t any of their damned business.”
Did he forget HE is the one who always reference his son as dying in battle not us.
-
For the record, Peter Doocey later commented he thought it intended as humor and took it as such.
-
Yes but just think for a moment.
He just told us he is mentally fine then (even jokingly) tells us he forgot to NOT call Peter Doocy!
If that was supposed to be a joke it could not be worse.
I was right he did say president of Mexico when he meant Egypt ( I wasn't sure who he meant and was thinking maybe Netanyahu)
Thank God people read the forum since I was the only one who caught the gaff! :-D :wink:
This was his Captain Queeg moment! This analogy will catch on too soon. Watch it will be in the news.
And the astonished looks in the Caine Mutiny courtroom when he was rolling the balls is us , the press, etc.
Of course the the Dems will play the party movie as such:

Only now they Greenwald will be played by all the DNC and MSM.
McMurray will be represented by the (bastard) Trump (and Maga) and his cult.
Biden will be portrayed as the warrior who fought tirelessly for America for decades till he succumbed to dementia.

I’m intentionally misfiling this as, on its face, it is about dotty Uncle Joe’s brain bubbles. I think if you parse the piece more deeply though, you’ll see it’s intent in fact is to misdirect and suck oxygen out of fitness to serve question and apply it instead to Garland (who has to understand on some level that his reputation will be henceforth tarnished by all the shade the DOJ has thrown Joe and all his familia partners in crime) with a wistful side of “if only Merrick had accelerated Trump’s persecution we wouldn’t be in this fix” wild goose.
It’s a classic case of “DC, we have a problem” narrative derailing so they send other trains screeching down side track as they hope the Little Engine That Can gets up a head of steam and pushes Biden’s wheelchair up the electoral hill and on to victory!!!
Good luck with that, but it is interesting to see what 24 hours and likely several operatives whispering in media ears “on background” to give it all an air of insider mystery can do:
White House frustration with Garland grows
The president believes the special counsel investigating his handling of classified documents went beyond his remit. And part of the blame is being placed on the AG.

Updated: 02/10/2024 08:04 AM EST
Joe Biden has told aides and outside advisers that Attorney General Merrick Garland did not do enough to rein in a special counsel report stating that the president had diminished mental faculties, according to two people close to the president, as White House frustration with the head of the Justice Department grows.
The report from special counsel Robert Hur ultimately cleared Biden of any charges stemming from his handling of classified documents that were found at Biden’s think tank and his home. But Hur’s explanation for not bringing charges — that Biden would have persuaded the jury that he was a forgetful old man — upended the presidential campaign and infuriated the White House.
Biden and his closest advisers believe Hur went well beyond his purview and was gratuitous and misleading in his descriptions, according to those two people, who were granted anonymity to speak freely. And they put part of the blame on Garland, who they say should have demanded edits to Hur’s report, including around the descriptions of Biden’s faltering memory.
In White House meetings, aides have questioned why Garland felt the need to appoint a special counsel in the first place, though Biden has publicly said he supported the decision.
While Biden himself has not weighed in on Garland’s future, most of the president’s senior advisers do not believe that the attorney general would remain in his post for a possible second term, according to the two people.
“This has been building for a while,” said one of those people. “No one is happy”
Frustration within the White House at Garland has been growing steadily.
Last year, Biden privately denounced how long the probe into his son was taking, telling aides and outside allies that he believed the stress could send Hunter Biden spiraling back into addiction, according to the same two people. And the elder Biden, the people said, told those confidants that Garland should not have eventually empowered a special counsel to look into his son, believing that he again was caving to outside pressure.
In recent weeks, President Biden has grumbled to aides and advisers that had Garland moved sooner in his investigation into former President Donald Trump’s election interference, a trial may already be underway or even have concluded, according to two people granted anonymity to discuss private matters. That trial still could take place before the election and much of the delay is owed not to Garland but to deliberate resistance put up by the former president and his team.
A spokesperson for the Department of Justice declined to comment. But one former senior Justice Department official noted that some of the frustrations being directed at Garland are better directed toward the White House. The president’s team had the option to exert executive privilege over elements of Hur’s report but declined to do so. And had Garland made edits to the report, he would have had to explain those redactions to Congress.
Beyond that, Garland felt the need to appoint a special counsel in the classified documents case in part because the president’s team bungled when the first documents were discovered.
“The way in which the White House story kept changing at the outset made it much more difficult for the Justice Department to resist having a special counsel,” said the former official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. “Had there been a very clear story at the beginning, it would have been easier.”
Biden blasts special counsel for questioning his memory
Biden picked Garland as his attorney general with the stated desire to restore a semblance of independence at the Department of Justice that he and others believed was lost under Donald Trump. He announced the nomination the day after the Jan. 6 attacks at the Capital — a backdrop that Biden offered up as proof that someone of Garland’s stature and temperament was needed in the post.
“Your loyalty is not to me,” Biden said. “You won’t work for me. You are not the president or the vice president’s lawyer.”
Democrats close to Biden fear Garland has become too consumed by that instruction to appear impartial.
“What Democrats do is they bend over backwards not to look partisan, and then they end up hiring people that are partisan but in the other direction,” said a Biden donor, granted anonymity to speak freely about the top law enforcement official in the country. “There’s no question in my mind that the villain here is Merrick Garland.”
But others say Garland has done a commendable job balancing out extremely thorny legal and political matters while maintaining the DOJ’s credibility.
“If you look at each one of these decisions, they are very thoughtful. They are not reflexively ducking responsibility as some would suggest. Rather, they are looking at what the department is supposed to do in any given circumstance,” said Jamie Gorelick, a former United States Deputy Attorney General. “I understand the cumulative impact [but] you have to play out what the alternatives are.”
‘Confidential’ in name only: Merrick Garland’s delicate decision to release the Hur report
Clinton adviser Begala on Hur report: ‘This is terrible for Democrats’
Trump, who has skirted attacks on Biden’s age, leans in as controversy swirls
With the Trump probe already in hands of a special counsel, Garland not appointing a special counsel over the classified Biden documents and simply closing the investigation himself “would not have been credible to the country,” she said.
Justice Department officials say Garland has delivered on a number of fronts — many of them closely identified with Biden or his priorities. Soon after arriving, he announced reorganizations and new initiatives aimed at cracking down on a wave of violent crime that beset many cities in the wake of the pandemic. There are signs those efforts are bearing fruit.
Garland and his deputies have also reinvigorated federal law enforcement in areas Republican administrations often downplay: fighting to preserve abortion access in the wake of the Dobbs Supreme Court decision, aggressively investigating claims of civil rights violations by police, and filing a flurry of often successful cases opposing mergers and alleged monopolistic practices.
But it has been his handling of the overtly political cases that has prompted Democratic agitation. And chief among those decisions now is his selection of Hur, a Trump-appointed U.S. attorney, to oversee the classified documents case.
“I had refused to criticize him but appointing Hur, who is obviously a Republican tool and who issued what I think is an irresponsible report which violates DOJ standards, was a mistake,” said Robert Shrum, a longtime consultant in the Democratic Party. “I think Garland will be criticized by historians. We’ve had some terrific attorneys general and some not so good attorneys general. And I think he’s going to rank in the not so good.”
Biden, for his part, has kept his frustrations with Garland private, even after publicly admonishing Hur in a press conference on Thursday for saying he couldn’t remember the year his son Beau died. On Friday, the White House distributed a list of quotes critical of Hur that did not mention Garland. Senate Democrats, questioned about Garland on Friday, declined to weigh in on his tenure.
“I’m not gonna get into criticizing the attorney general at all,” Sen. Tina Smith (D-Minn.) told POLITICO.
Asked on Friday whether the president had confidence in Garland, Ian Sams, a White House spokesperson for oversight and investigations, noted Biden’s comments from the day before saying he supported the appointment of a special counsel.
But even as the frictions between the White House and DOJ remain relatively contained, outside Democrats are now openly airing their disapproval with Garland’s conduct, and their fears that his selection as attorney general may end up being fatal for Biden.
“Garland is far and away Biden’s worst appointee by an order of magnitude,” Robert Kuttner, co-founder of the liberal American Prospect. “And we all pay the price. If Biden goes down the drain because Garland has mishandled the investigation of Trump and gave Republicans a weapon … then the country pays the price. It’s not just that Biden gets punished for the stupidity of appointing Garland.”

Wait was it not a week or so ago that Alexdouche was on CNN saying something like Joe did a superb job and is one of the great Presidents but maybe it is time for him to step aside?

Cognitive testing can be done anytime, does NOT require ANY criteria to be met.
Usually, we would do it if there is any question from the patient or other caretaker or designated family member about the patient's cognitive status.
VERY SIMPLE!
OF COURSE there is ample evidence that 8 billion people can see that Biden should have a cognitive test.
If it was simple occasional forgetfulness or the somewhat misleading "normal part of aging"
then Biden would pass a cognitive test.
The fact that is reportedly NOT DONE is clear lying deception and covering up what anyone can see.
-
Being President IS a cognitive test. 6 billion people can see him failing so there's no big secret here. Just continuing attempts at deception. Yes they are lying to us.
(I played no part in my son's business was another deception, a lie with relevance to the job. Lying for him is when the lips move. Pathological is when you do it so much you don't care or even recall if it's true.)
Of course many really important functions of the Presidency are done behind the scenes. People are doing that for him to a large extent and we can't see it. Details of policy, going to war, thinking through the repercussions of that are examples. All Presidents have writers and handlers, but what role is Joe playing in final decisions on major policies and direction. One indication is that his Presidency does NOT have the agenda of the moderate Senator a lot of people thought they were voting for.
ccp: "Usually, we would do it [cognitive test] if there is any question from the patient or other caretaker or designated family member about the patient's cognitive status."
[Doug] They gave me a simple one as part of a routine Medicare physical. He didn't bother look for melanoma or a lot of other ailments that could kill me but gave me a simple cognitive test. "Here are three unrelated words. I'm going to ask you them again later." If they start with that at age 65, shouldn't they be a little more rigorous at age 80 - if you're still driving - and have nuclear weapons?
Health records are private, but what about whistle-blowing? If the President and his staff are making a claim the physician knows to be false, isn't there some obligation and protection for that? I guess the special counsel did that, said the man wasn't fit to stand trial.
---------------------
Reminds me of the joke, you remember Sen Joe Biden of Delaware wanted so badly to be President, probably all his life and certainly since he announced in 1988. He tried again unsuccessfully in 2008 ... and now he has won! He's the leader of the free world making all the most important decisions for our nation and our future! Too bad Joe couldn't be here with us to appreciate it.

As inferred below, if they can wake him up a couple of times a year, why can't they do it daily. Obviously some health risk to trying to do that. But we know nothing but speculation.

Joe wasn't honest, wasn't sharp and used memory issues to cover up false statements 36 years ago.
I think this is valid material to use campaigning against him now.
Friends of mine can't vote for Trump because of "ethical" reasons. This guy is worse in every way. If you demand ethical, find someone else or sit this one out.
These are big names of Left media writing his political obituary, Sam Donaldson, David Brinkley, David Gergen, Ted Koppel, Leslie Stahl, Eleanor Clift, McLaughlin, and so on. They weren't wrong about him. They were wrong about us.
In his non-apology he explained, "I've done some dumb things and I'll do dumb things again".
Put that on a bumper sticker.

WSJ FTA: Obama, Clinton, & Biden will be appearing at a fundraiser. Guess some coattails need to be clung to:
Democrats Still Stuck With Biden
Voters don’t think much of the president but also remain wary of the obvious replacement.
The bad news for the White House is that according to the RealClearPolitics polling average, Joe Biden remains just as unpopular as he was before giving his State of the Union address. The worse news for Democrats is that there’s not much they can do about it.
This column will offer the usual caveat that polling is not an exact science if it’s even a science. But assume a wide margin for error and this electorate is still very unhappy with the incumbent. This week the Economist/YouGov poll finds that 58% of registered voters don’t want Mr. Biden to run again this fall, compared to just 31% who do.
Even among Democrats the percentage who want Mr. Biden running again is just 50%—though he has recently locked up the nomination to represent their party this fall.
A full 63% of registered voters regard him as a weak leader, compared to the 37% who view him as a strong one.
In another reading that can’t be good for Mr. Biden, when asked if they “feel that things in this country these days” are “under control” or “out of control,” only 15% of registered voters say “under control” while 70% say they feel that things in this country are “out of control.” Looks like an overwhelming endorsement of the thesis advanced by this column’s most celebrated alumnus: Mr. Biden has failed to fulfill the central premise and promise of his 2020 campaign—a return to normal politics.
Meanwhile there’s more discouraging news for the donkeys in the latest Harvard/Harris survey, which finds that most voters doubt Joe Biden’s mental fitness to serve another term as president and believe he’s showing that he’s too old for the job. But they also aren’t eager to embrace the obvious alternative. Harvard/Harris asked the following question:
If Joe Biden decided to drop out at the Democratic convention in August, do you view Kamala Harris as the default replacement or would you want an open contest at the convention among the delegates?
Only 37% of respondents say the vice president should be the default selection while 63% would want an open contest. Republicans overwhelmingly favor an open contest, so perhaps they’re just rooting for uncontrolled division in the rival party. But 70% of independents also favor an open contest.
As for the Democrats, 60% think Ms. Harris should be next in line while 40% would want the contest thrown open. This is a tough reading for any Democratic insiders trying to conceive of a way to finesse Mr. Biden into retirement this summer. The 60% base of party support shows how difficult it would be to jettison Ms. Harris. But the 40% who want an open competition are numerous enough to spark a vigorous summer debate, especially as Democrats contemplate how little appetite there is for a Harris candidacy outside their party.
So the Democrats remain stuck with a presidential nominee whose own Justice Department’s special counsel decided was too forgetful to prosecute despite voluminous evidence of willful law-breaking. So much for a return to normalcy!
Of course across all parties there’s also the question of how much U.S. voters really want normal politicians. The large majority who would prefer an open competition to choose a Biden successor instead of accepting the sitting vice president suggests that there’s still a significant anti-establishment streak among U.S. voters.
Chris Megerian’s report for the Associated Press underlines how different Mr. Biden’s relationship to his party is compared to Donald Trump’s relationship with his:
When President Joe Biden needs advice, there are two people he can turn to who know what it’s like to sit in his chair. Sometimes he will invite Barack Obama over to the White House for a meal or he will get on the phone with Bill Clinton.
…On Thursday, their partnership will be on display in what has been described as a one-of-a-kind fundraising extravaganza in New York City to help Biden build on his already significant cash advantage…
“There is everything to be gained by Joe Biden standing next to Bill Clinton and Barack Obama,” said Leon Panetta, who worked in the administrations of both former presidents. “That picture is worth a hell of a lot in politics today.”
To some it’s a picture of the ultimate establishment politician, and soon we’ll all find out what it’s worth. The AP report continues:
The display of solidarity is a sharp contrast to Donald Trump’s isolation from other Republican leaders.
Now Imagine How Unpopular Biden Will Be in 2054
Perhaps those of us in the media business spend too much time examining and reporting on polling results, which are merely imperfect and ephemeral expressions of opinion. But rest assured that Joe Biden is not one of those unpopular presidents who will become more admired in the fullness of time. A rare president who does not even pretend to care about runaway federal spending, Mr. Biden took office facing a mammoth fiscal problem and has worked diligently to ensure that his successors will have to tackle something far worse. The Congressional Budget Office recently updated its long-term budget forecast:
The deficit increases significantly in relation to gross domestic product (GDP) over the next 30 years… Debt held by the public, boosted by the large deficits, reaches its highest level ever in 2029 (measured as a percentage of GDP) and then continues to grow, reaching 166 percent of GDP in 2054 and remaining on track to increase thereafter. That mounting debt would slow economic growth, push up interest payments to foreign holders of U.S. debt, and pose significant risks to the fiscal and economic outlook; it could also cause lawmakers to feel more constrained in their policy choices.
You can say that again. And they won’t look back with fondness at the responsible official who felt so weirdly unconstrained by any notion of fiscal soundness.

I have not heard that acid reflux drugs are associated w/ dementia, but this piece connects some interesting dots if this PPI stuff has legs:
The Pepcidammerung
Plus: Are you on the side of the polarizers?
MICKEY KAUS
APR 02, 2024
Updating kausfiles’ Regimen of Paranoia:
1. Like many people, I have a problem with acid reflux. I originally took Pepcid for it, then switched to Prilosec. Then I abandoned Prilosec when a well publicized study suggested that long term use (4 years or more) increased your dementia risk by 33%. Yikes! Various attempts were made to debunk the study--see, eg, this Vox piece. And it may be that with millions of people taking Prilosec and millions being diagnosed with cognitive decline, the personality types — i.e. anxious personality types—who'll get themselves tested for the decline are also the types who'll take antacids. It beats me--but Vox doesn't totally knock down the Prilosec/dementia connection. Instead, it urges people to talk with their doctors. When I told my doctor I wanted to quit Prilosec, he didn't try to argue me out of it. He suggested I switch back to Pepcid. I said, "Well, if the President takes it, how bad could it be?"
2. Indeed, President Biden has been on a "regimen of Pepcid,"apparently for a while. (It was recently supplemented by another antacid,.). Pepcid, unlike Prilosec, is not a "proton pump inhibitor" or PPI, the type implicated in the dementia study. It reduces acid via a different mechanism, known as H2RA -- which blocks the histamine receptors that trigger acid. Sounded good to me.
3. Almost two years into Biden’s term, the Alzheimer’s Association published a another credible study (one I’d missed) suggesting that, indeed, Pepcid is not as bad, dementia-wise, as Prilosec. It’s worse! At least it's worse for people who already have a mild case of cognitive decline—resulting in those people developing full blown dementia faster. "[A]mong people with [mild cognitive impairment, or MCI], H2RA [Pepcid] users had earlier progression to dementia over 5 years compared to PPI users.” Specifically, “H2RA use was associated with a 40.2% higher dementia risk, specifically for people with MCI.” And: “[T]aken with the present results, the evidence in toto suggests that H2RAs rather than PPIs might be associated with dementia risk. “
4. Many people think President Biden has a mild case of cognitive decline. We can argue about it—he did not take a cognitive test as part of his recent physical.** Some who’ve negotiated with him (e.g. Kevin McCarthy) say he’s all there. But enough people who’ve observed him say he’s gone downhill to establish it as a distinct possibility.
Cognitive decline is not, apparently, like getting the bubonic plague (either you have the plague or you don’t).** It’s more a spectrum, or, if you prefer, a slippery slope. The issue is not just where Biden is now but where he’ll be in 2026 or in 2029, when his second term would end.
And he’s taking a drug that seems as if it’s likely to make any decline down that slope go faster.
Yikes.
I'm not “just askin' questions”! Or “raising concerns.” I'm saying "Yikes!"
Maybe some conscientious reporters could ask some non-politicized neurologists (if there are any) about this risk.
P.S.: The other anti-reflux drug Biden's now on is Nexium, which is a proton pump inhibitor, like ... Prilosec. It’s not as if, for both types of antacid, there’s not a plausible story for how they could promote dementia. They both have “anti-cholinergic”effects, meaning they block acetylcholin, which is a neurotransmitter. So we’re in the territory of screwing around with the nervous system.
Disclaimer: I’m not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV. I may have missed things in these studies (I don’t know about “e-values” and confounders.) That’s why I suggest bringing in some experts who wouldn’t be gunning for headlines or subject to career retaliation.

**—Here’s one simple take-at-home cognitive test. It’s incredibly easy. Hard to believe Biden couldn’t ace that.

I'd be willing to bet a chunk of this "outrage" is pablum for the press as they are ever willing to disseminate so the ambulatory corpse that used to be Biden can heed his handlers and try to walk the fine line between alienating his Jewish voters and alienating Mulims and their "Progressive" standard bearers.

Biden’s crime rate flimflam:
The State of Crime: A Steep Decline, or Another Bidenesque Wild Story?
MONDAY, MAY 6, 2024
In his State of the Union address this year, President Joe Biden proclaimed that “Americans deserve the freedom to be safe, and America is safer today than when I took office,” boasting that “[l]ast year, the murder rate saw the sharpest decrease in history, and violent crime fell to one of the lowest levels in more than 50 years.”
What are voters to make of this? Is it another wild story from Biden, who not too long ago implied that his uncle had been eaten by cannibals after being shot down over Papua New Guinea in World War II?
Crime/public safety was a top issue in the 2022 midterm elections, and it remains a key issue in the approach to this November’s elections. A Pew Research Center survey reports that six in ten U.S. adults feel reducing crime should be a political priority, and that “[c]oncerns about crime have risen somewhat in both parties since the start of Biden’s presidency. About seven-in-ten Republicans (68%) say reducing crime should be a top priority this year, up 13 points since 2021. And 47% of Democrats say the same, up 8 points since 2021.”
Several recent articles from the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC), an organization “dedicated to conducting academic quality research on the relationship between laws regulating the ownership or use of guns, crime, and public safety,” examine the state of crime and crime reporting and conclude, overall, that factors other than actual crime are giving rise to the illusion of safer streets.
Two of the articles (The Collapse in Law Enforcement: As Arrest Rates Plummet, People Have Been Less Willing to Report Crime and The Media Say Crime Is Going Down. Don’t Believe It: The decline in reported crimes is a function of less reporting, not less crime) evaluate the statistics and the efforts to reinforce Biden’s claim that violent crime is falling dramatically. A third article examines reliability and other problems with the FBI’s reporting of violent crime.
According to the CPRC, one factor contributing to the ostensible dip in violent crime is that almost 40% of local law enforcement agencies are no longer transmitting their information to the national Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) database. In “2021, 37% of police departments stopped reporting crime data to the FBI (including large departments for Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York),” and for other jurisdictions, like Baltimore and Nashville, crimes are being underreported or undercounted. This leaves a large gap; by 2021, the real crime data collected by the FBI represented only 63% of police departments overseeing just 65% of the population. When compared to pre-2021 data, the result is a questionable “decline” in crime.
Another factor that undermines the official narrative of less crime is the degree of non-reporting or underreporting of crime by victims. Since 1973, the federal National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) has bypassed police statistics and relied, instead, on interviews with a nationally representative sample of some 240,000 individuals. The information collected includes the frequency and type of crime experienced, including crimes that have not been reported to police.
The CPRC summary of NCVS data states that in 2022 (the most recent survey available), only “42% of violent crimes, such as robberies or aggravated assaults, and 32% of property crimes, such as burglary or arson, were reported [to police]… the [NCVS] shows that total violent crime—reported and nonreported—rose from 16.5 incidents to 23.5 per 1,000 people. Nonreported violent crime in 2022 exceeded the five-year average between 2015 to 2019 by more than 17%.”
To provide a somewhat broader context regarding these trends, the NCVS survey for 2015 stated that “[f]rom 1993 to 2015, the rate of violent crime declined from 79.8 to 18.6 victimizations per 1,000 persons age 12 or older,” and that in 2015, “0.98% of all persons age 12 or older (2.7 million persons) experienced at least one violent victimization.” By 2022, according to the NCVS, the violent crime rate had increased to 23.5 per 1,000, and “about 1.24% (3.5 million) of persons age 12 or older nationwide experienced at least one violent crime.”
Another indicator of crime that the CPRC examined was changes in arrest rates. As arrest rates decline, the number of crimes reported to police falls, because if “people don’t think the police will solve their cases, they are less likely to report them to the police.” The CPRC compared violent crime arrest rates in 2022 with arrests for such offenses over the five years before COVID-19, and found that in 2022, the arrest rate across all cities fell by 20%. Looking at major cities only (those with a population of over one million), the drop in 2022 was an even more precipitous 54%, with only 20.3% of violent crimes in such cities being cleared by arrest.
For murder and non-negligent manslaughter exclusively, arrest rates in major cities decreased from rates that had been consistently over 60% during 2015 to 2019, to 40.6% in 2022. Major cities saw similar reductions in arrests between those time periods for robberies, aggravated assaults, and rape. Robbery arrest rates dropped by over half (from over 30% in 2015-2019 to 13.1% in 2022) and aggravated assault arrests declined from a high of 54.6% in 2015 to just 23.4% in 2022. Property crime arrests mirrored the trend. “Comparing the five years from 2015-2019 to the arrest rate in 2022 shows a drop of 33% for all cities and a 63% decline for [major] cities.”
Using these arrest rates and the NCVS figure that only 42% of violent crimes were actually reported to police in 2022, the CPRC conclusions regarding crime become much more dismal. Of the 42% of actually reported crimes in 2022, only 35.2% likely resulted in an arrest, meaning that overall, only 14.6% of violent crimes result in an arrest. Applying the analysis to major cities only (using the 2022 figure of 20.3% reported violent crimes resulting in arrest), the implication is that only 8.4% of all violent crimes culminated in an arrest. “For property crimes, the numbers are even worse. With 31.8% of property crimes reported to police and only 11.9% of those reported crimes resulting in an arrest, that means that only 3.8% of all property crimes result in an arrest. For large cities with over a million people, only 1.4% of all property crimes result in an arrest.”
The last paper by the CPRC reviewed the FBI’s violent crime statistics by comparing the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program (official police statistics of crimes reported to law enforcement) with the NCVS data collected by another federal agency, the Bureau of Justice Statistics. (The agencies’ measurements overlap somewhat but are not the same; the NCVS includes, for instance, unreported crimes.)
According to the CPRC, from 2008 through 2019, the two measurements were “unrelated” (a correlation coefficient of 0.0473) but have since shifted to an almost perfectly negative (or inverse) correlation of -0.9597. While the FBI figures indicates a national drop in violent crime, the NCVS reports the opposite: “between 2021 and 2022, the FBI UCR showed reported violent crime fell by 2.1%, but the NCVS showed reported violent crime increased by 29.3%.” The evidence “indicates real problems with the FBI-reported violent crime measure and that the FBI data are extremely misleading after 2020,” and unfortunately, the mainstream media tend to rely “exclusively on FBI-reported violent crime data.”
Last week, another article, this one written by a former director of the Bureau of Justice Statistics at the U.S. Department of Justice, took exception to President Biden’s claims that last year, “the murder rate saw the sharpest decrease in history, and violent crime fell to one of the lowest levels in more than 50 years.” The most recent, finalized FBI crime statistics (2022) fail to support any “record-setting decline in murder rates.” Using alternatively-available data for the half-dozen largest local law enforcement agencies for 2023, the author concludes that, while these agencies did report declines in homicides from 2022 to 2023, the declines “are nowhere near enough to compensate for the huge murder spike from 2019 to 2022. Indeed, homicides across all six agencies rose from 2019 to 2022 by a combined 46 percent.”
The outcome for overall violent crime is expected to be the same. When the “BJS publishes the 2023 NCVS early this fall, it won’t be surprising if it shows a similar trend—a reduction in urban violent crime from 2022 to 2023 that doesn’t come close to negating the 58 percent increase from 2019 to 2022. But for now, the only truly reliable national statistics [the NCVS] for making cross-year comparisons only cover through 2022. According to those numbers, America’s urban areas have collectively seen nothing but increases in violent crime since our most recent experiment in lenient law enforcement began.”
President Biden is anxious to enhance his appeal to voters by unrealistic assertions that his policies have made the country “safer today,” with the added benefit that a “safer” America justifies his delusional gun control measures. If the CPRC and others are correct, there has been no astonishing decline in homicides, or even violent crimes generally. The real declines are the worrying drop in reporting of crimes to police and the much-reduced arrest rates, without Americans actually experiencing a greater “freedom to be safe.”\

"The decline in reported crimes is a function of less reporting, not less crime) "
- This is right. People don't report crimes when they know there will be no investigation, no arrest, no prosecution. For survival in the city, it is safer to just look the other way.

Actually more people died from covid under slow Joe than Trump. But he wasn't Vice President in 2021 either.
The Hur report also revealed he does not know when he was Vice President. It's in the deposition. And the tape that will end his candidacy.
FYI, the Obama elections were 2008 and 2012. Joe was VP from Jan 2009 to Jan 2017. Covid "19" began in late 2019, hitting the mainstream awareness by about March 2020. Donald Trump was President, Mike Pence was VP and Democrats used Covid to their full advantage to take them down.
Slow Joe is likely thinking of the swine flu of 2009.

Now that he brings it up: Like the strategic midterm oi supply, they never replenished the N95 masks they used during H1N1 leaving us fully unprepared for the next pandemic COVID-19. These are the people who "care more" about us than Republicans do.
What would it cost them to replenish the masks, nothing is paid for anyway.
On a more positive note, the president calls those who protested the election results "erectionists".

Or in this case the cognitive failure of Biden’s handlers given this piece and the sources cited. I’m always hesitant to take at gospel partisan sources like PJ Media as their slant is so pronounced and consistent, but as other first hand counts are there it appears they aren’t too far off the mark.
Imagine if it was Trump instead who did this. The MSM would be having wall to wall coverage kittens reporting it. And if it were indeed Trump over there now I golly darn well guarantee he’d wade into the middle of the high school marching bands, press the flesh, and generally inspire these kids rather than elbow them aside in favor of a pic that’ll run on page 3 of the NYT for Biden, and not at all for Trump:

… but fiddled anyway:
They Knew Biden is no longer fit to be president. Last night’s debate exposed the lies we’ve been told.
By Bari Weiss
June 28, 2024
Rarely are so many lies dispelled in a single moment. Rarely are so many people exposed as liars and sycophants. Last night’s debate was a watershed on both counts.
The debate was not just a catastrophe for President Biden. And boy—oy—was it ever.
But it was more than that. It was a catastrophe for an entire class of experts, journalists, and pundits, who have, since 2020, insisted that Biden was sharp as a tack, on top of his game, basically doing handstands while peppering his staff with tough questions about care for migrant children and aid to Ukraine.
Anyone who committed the sin of using their own eyes on the 46th president was accused, variously, of being Trumpers; MAGA cult members who don’t want American democracy to survive; ageists; or just dummies easily duped by “disinformation,” “misinformation,” “fake news,” and, most recently, “cheapfakes.”
Cast your mind back to February, when Robert Hur, the special counsel appointed by the Department of Justice to look into Biden’s handling of classified documents, came out with his report that included details about Biden’s health, which explained why he would not prosecute the president.
“We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” Hur wrote. “It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him—by then a former president well into his eighties—of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”
Can anyone doubt that characterization after watching Biden’s debate performance?
Yet Eric Holder told us that Hur’s remarks were “gratuitous.” The former attorney general tweeted: “Had this report been subject to a normal DOJ review these remarks would undoubtedly have been excised.” Dan Pfeiffer, a former Obama adviser, said Hur’s report was a “partisan hit job.” Vice President Kamala Harris argued: “The way that the president’s demeanor in that report was characterized could not be more wrong on the facts, and clearly politically motivated, gratuitous.” The report does not “live in reality,” said White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, stressing that the president was “sharp” and “on top of things.”
Shall I go on? Okay.
Here was The New York Times last week in an extensive piece headlined: “How Misleading Videos Are Trailing Biden as He Battles Age Doubts.” The story went on to attempt to convince readers that “there is the distorted, online version” of Biden, which is merely “a product of often misleading videos that play into and reinforce voters’ longstanding concerns about his age and abilities.”
With forensic detail, three Times reporters compared these videos from various angles. “Some of the videos of Mr. Biden circulating during this year’s campaign are clearly manipulated to make him look old and confused,” they wrote, pulling clips that were meant to debunk the idea that he was either. Watch them. See for yourself.
When The Wall Street Journal earlier this month came out with a story for which reporters had interviewed 45 people, soberly laying out concerns about Biden’s age, it was trashed as an “egregious hit job.” Some people called for it to be retracted.
“Congressional Republicans, foreign leaders, and nonpartisan national-security experts have made clear in their own words that President Biden is a savvy and effective leader who has a deep record of legislative accomplishment,” White House spokesman Andrew Bates told the WSJ. “Now, in 2024, House Republicans are making false claims as a political tactic that flatly contradict previous statements made by themselves and their colleagues.”
And even in the midst of last night’s dumpster fire, some stalwarts, like the Japanese soldiers who hadn’t realized they’d already lost the war, tried to spin it.
“Biden has a cold,” a source close to the president told Axios during the debate. Right, that was the trouble. A lack of Tylenol.
On MSNBC, Joy-Ann Reid suggested that the issue was that he was on the right-hand side of the screen. Yes. That was definitely the problem.
I never understood these reactions. For me, it always seemed easy enough to say: Biden’s 81. He’s fading. Most 81-year-olds do. But it seemed fair to still argue that a faded Biden is better than an all-there Trump.
As Bill Maher has put it: “I’d vote for Biden’s head in a jar of blue liquid versus Trump.” Or as Sam Harris has said: “Hunter Biden could literally have had the corpses of children in his basement, and I would not have cared.”
You may disagree with the conclusion, but it’s a coherent argument. It’s not an argument that relies on the denial of reality.
“Telling people they didn't see what they saw is not the way to respond to this.” That was Democratic operative Ben Rhodes’ reaction last night to the debate. The trouble is that’s precisely what the strategy has been for many, many months.
There were notable exceptions. Ezra Klein published a huge piece in The New York Times in February making the case that Biden should step down for the good of the country. James Carville’s been telling the truth, too.
When Rep. Dean Phillips entered the Democratic presidential primary last year, his entire campaign was based on the observation that Biden was too old for the job. I reached Phillips via text and asked him if he wanted to comment, in light of the debate, on how the Democratic establishment had treated him given that he had the guts to say the quiet part out loud. “Gandhi said to speak only when it improves upon the silence,” he texted back.
But last night, many of the very people who say they are shocked—shocked!—by Biden’s showing were exactly the people who were covering for him.
Here was Ed Krassenstein reacting to a video of Joe Biden tripping up the stairs in October of 2023: “Once again, people are pretending to be frightened over the fact that Joe Biden stumbled going up stairs at age 80. I literally stumble going up the stairs at least twice a week. I even fell down my spiral staircase a couple weeks ago. I’m 41 years old, workout daily, and actually use the stair-stepper at the gym 5 days a week. Should I be concerned?”
Here was Krassenstein last night: “Joe Biden has trouble speaking.”
Here was MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow in early February saying Biden is fit for the presidency because he can ride a bike.
Here was Maddow last night, admitting Biden had a “weak” voice and “halting delivery.”
Here was The View co-host Ana Navarro-Cárdenas in September of last year: “Joe Biden is old, but he ain’t dying any time soon. I don’t know if you guys saw him this weekend. He was at the G20. One moment I turned on the TV, he was in India, and then I turned on the TV, he was in Vietnam. Then I turned on the TV, he was giving a press conference, and then at the end of being up for, like, 24 hours working in a completely different part of the world, he said, ‘You know what? I got to go to bedʼ while Republicans were all pouncing on the fact that the man who had been up for 38 hours had to—I had to go to bed just watching him on TV.”
Here was Navarro-Cárdenas’s reaction to Biden’s post-debate speech, where he appeared to be slightly more coherent: “Where the hell was this Joe Biden?”
Those around the president—Jill Biden, certainly, but also all those savvy staffers—should have encouraged Biden to bow out gracefully after his first term. Because what happened last night was heartbreaking. It debased Biden as a man. It was also alarming—the person we saw onstage is our commander in chief. He holds the nuclear football. It wasn’t just Americans who watched his performance last night.
The Democrats talk a lot about “saving democracy.” But if you truly believe democracy is on the line in a race against Trump, the solution is as straightforward as it was before the debate clock started last night on CNN: Replace Biden. The Democratic Convention doesn’t begin until August 19. Biden still has time to pull an LBJ.
As for the rest of us? Tonight was like a flash going off. So much—and so many—revealed.

It is truly amazing how all these people in their deep emotional hatred of Trump have become stupid self denying idiots who lie, change party affiliations , help the political enemy, and live sleep dream their lives away bashing DJT.
Even beyond party affiliation to even throwing the country's future away just to deprive Trump.

Bill has also stated Jake Sullivan is heading the foreign policy I assume with Antony the musician.
Of course we know Obama is somehow involved though that information is kept in a Fort Knox like vault.

Interestingly, this reporter thought Biden’s debate performance was better than she expected it to be:
The Conspiracy of Silence to Protect Joe Biden The president’s mental decline was like a dark family secret for many elite supporters.
By Olivia Nuzzi, New York’s Washington correspondent
President Joe Biden walked before a row of flags and took his place at a lectern stamped with the presidential seal. A few feet in front of him, thin panes of teleprompter glass, programmed with prewritten remarks, were positioned to meet his stare as he spoke into a microphone that would carry his voice through a soundsystem. His White House press secretary looked on. So did several senior White House officials. Anxiety clung to the humid summer air. What the president was about to say might determine the future of his presidency and perhaps the Republic itself.
Yet this was not to be some grand pronouncement about war or peace or a shift in domestic policy. He was not delivering an official address or even a rally speech. He was not onstage in a stadium or auditorium or perched on a platform in a gilded government or hotel ballroom. He was not speaking to a crowd of thousands or even hundreds. There would be no video of his statement carried live to the world. There would be no photos. And there would be no published audio.
In a tent on the backyard patio of a private home in suburban New Jersey, the president was eye to eye with a small group of powerful Democrats and rich campaign donors, trying to reassure them that he was not about to drop dead or drop out of the presidential race.
The content of his speech would matter less than his perceived capacity to speak coherently at all, though much of what he would say would not be entirely decipherable. His words as always had a habit of sliding into a rhetorical pileup, an affliction that had worsened in the four years since he began running for president for the third time in 2020. He might begin a sentence loud and clear and then, midway through, sound as if he was trying to recite two or three lines all at once, his individual words and syllables dissolving into an incoherent gurgle.
Still, he was fine, he told the donors. Old, sure. But fine. He was here, wasn’t he? Things were actually going well by the numbers. The polls looked good. The money looked good. They were looking right at him. He looked pretty good for 81, no? Really, folks! And what choice did they have? As he liked to say, “As my father liked to say: Joey, don’t compare me to the almighty; compare me to the alternative.” In total, his remarks would last for exactly ten minutes — long enough to inspire confidence in his abilities, advisers hoped, but not so long that he was at increased risk of calling those abilities further into question.
As always with this president, the production surrounding any public appearance — even if it was semi-private — came down to timing and control. He could not spend too much time out in the wild, and the circumstances in which he could exist in such an environment with so many wobbly variables would need to be managed aggressively. According to rules set by the White House, the traveling protective pool — the rotating group of reporters, run by the White House Correspondents’ Association, that trails a sitting president to provide constant coverage of his movements for the press corps — would be permitted limited access to observe his remarks before being whisked away from the reception, or “wrangled,” in communications parlance, and held elsewhere on the property (in a guest house, where somebody tuned an old television set to Real Time With Bill Maher).
Obsessive efforts to control Biden were not a new phenomenon. But whereas in the last campaign, the incredible stagecraft surrounding even the smallest Biden event — speaking to a few people at a union hall in rural Iowa, say, or in a barn in New Hampshire — seemed to be about avoiding the so-called gaffes that had become for him inevitable, the stagecraft of the 2024 campaign seems now to be about something else. The worry is not that Biden will say something overly candid, or say something he didn’t mean to say, but that he will communicate through his appearance that he is not really there.
The display early Saturday evening was the last of seven campaign events held across four states in the 48 hours that followed the first presidential debate. The events were designed to serve as both proof of life for concerned wealthy patrons of the Biden reelection effort and proof of the wisdom of their choices: Other concerned wealthy people were still buying. They didn’t need to panic.
The sprawling Red Bank estate on a hill overlooking the Navesink River belonged to Goldman Sachs executive turned governor Phil Murphy. The local press had reported that hundreds were expected to attend the event. Though the $10 million property could have easily accommodated such a crowd, it was more like 50. Fewer if you subtract official staff or members of the Biden family, including the First Lady and several grandchildren. But big money comes in small packs, and Tammy Murphy, the governor’s wife, began her remarks with an unusual announcement: The couple had raised $3.7 million with their fundraiser, a number that had exceeded their goal. “This is personal for us,” the governor said. “We’re all with you 1,000 percent.” He called Biden “America’s comeback kid.” The callback to Bill Clinton articulated the nervous, defensive energy that animated the evening. But Biden had not face planted in a pit of bad press because of a mistake in his personal life. His problems would be much trickier to solve. A sex scandal might help him right now, in fact.
The president had approached the lectern with his stiff gait, which his official medical report, written by Dr. Kevin O’Connor, who has led his care since he was vice-president, attributes to a foot injury and an arthritic spine.
“I’d like to make three quick points,” Biden said. “Today we announced, since the debate, which wasn’t my best debate ever, as Barack points out, we raised $27 million.” It has long been a feature of Biden speeches to refer to the former president in this familiar way. “Barack and me” is a frequent refrain, a reminder of his service to the nation’s first Black president and a promise, too, of a return to normalcy after the aberrant rise of Donald Trump.
Although large speakers lined the patio, and although Governor and Mrs. Murphy were perfectly audible in their remarks, understanding Biden’s speech required intense focus. “POTUS was difficult to hear at times,” Tyler Pager of the Washington Post, assigned to circulate his statements in real time as the print pooler, wrote. “So please check the transcript.” The pool reporters often struggle with the challenge of how hard it is to hear or make sense of the president. Radio reporters do not always obtain usable audio of his remarks. Print reporters squint and strain and crane their necks, trying to find the best position by which their ears may absorb the vibration of his voice in the air. Reporters scrutinize their audio recordings and read quotes to one another after the fact. Is that what he said? You heard it? In that order? You sure?
Biden continued on: “Secondly, I understand the concern after the debate. I get it. We didn’t have a great night, but we’re working hard and we’re going to be working to get it done … Since the debate, the polls show a little movement and have me up a couple points.”
The donors broke into thunderous applause when the president said this about the polls. But what he said was false. Early public surveys immediately following the debate indicated that Biden was down overall a point or two, and surveys that asked respondents to rate the debate itself had him losing by mid–double digits. As a means of damage control, the campaign leaked some of its own internal polling — which had been until recently regarded as a state secret — to argue that the debate had not moved the needle: The president was losing by a slim margin before Thursday night, and he was still losing by that slim margin after Thursday night. In the days that followed, the polls would only grow grimmer.
“In fact,” Biden went on, “the big takeaway are Trump’s lies … The point is, I didn’t have a great night and neither did he.”
He returned to the central message of his campaign: “The fact is that Donald Trump is a genuine threat to democracy, and that’s not hyperbole. He’s a genuine threat. He’s a threat to our freedom, he’s a threat to our democracy, he’s literally a threat to America and what we stand for … Ask yourself the question: If not for America, who would lead the world?”
The question was posed as a reminder of the stakes of the November election. During his term in office, Trump had sought to retreat from America’s global commitments, abiding by a madman semi-isolationist theory of foreign policy that in Biden’s view and the view of many Establishment actors across the ideological divide had caused damage to the country’s reputation that will take a generation of stable leadership to undo.
Yet Biden’s comment also served as an unintentional reminder of the concerns about his own leadership. Just the day before, the Wall Street Journal had published a report that described how the president’s “frail” appearance and inconsistent “focus and performance” presented challenges on the world stage. At the G7 summit in Italy in June, Biden had the distinction of being the only world leader who did not attend a private dinner party where candid diplomatic talks would happen off-camera. At a European Union summit in Washington in October, Biden “struggled to follow the discussions” and “stumbled over his talking points” to such a degree that he required the intervention of Secretary of State Antony Blinken. (The White House denied the Journal’s reporting.)
Under vines of white moonflowers on the governor’s patio, I watched as the president neared the end of his ten-minute speech. If a gaffe is when a politician accidentally tells the truth, he was still making them. The truth he told now was this: “I’ve got a helluva lot of plans for the next four years — God willing, as my father used to say.”
In January, I began hearing similar stories from Democratic officials, activists, and donors. All people who supported the president and were working to help reelect him to a second term in office. Following encounters with the president, they had arrived at the same concern: Could he really do this for another four years? Could he even make it to Election Day?
Uniformly, these people were of a similar social strata. They lived and socialized in Washington, New York, and Los Angeles. They did not wish to come forward with their stories. They did not want to blow a whistle. They wished that they could whistle past what they knew and emerge in November victorious and relieved, having helped avoid another four years of Trump. What would happen after that? They couldn’t think that far ahead. Their worries were more immediate.
When they discussed what they knew, what they had seen, what they had heard, they literally whispered. They were scared and horrified. But they were also burdened. They needed to talk about it (though not on the record). They needed to know that they were not alone and not crazy. Things were bad, and they knew things were bad, and they knew others must also know things were bad, and yet they would need to pretend, outwardly, that things were fine. The president was fine. The election would be fine. They would be fine. To admit otherwise would mean jeopardizing the future of the country and, well, nobody wanted to be responsible personally or socially for that. Their disclosures often followed innocent questions: Have you seen the president lately? How does he seem? Often, they would answer with only silence, their eyes widening cartoonishly, their heads shaking back and forth. Or with disapproving sounds. “Phhhhwwwaahhh.” “Uggghhhhhhhhh.” “Bbbwwhhheeuuw.” Or with a simple, “Not good! Not good!” Or with an accusatory question of their own: “Have you seen him?!”
Those who encountered the president in social settings sometimes left their interactions disturbed. Longtime friends of the Biden family, who spoke to me on the condition of anonymity, were shocked to find that the president did not remember their names. At a White House event last year, a guest recalled, with horror, realizing that the president would not be able to stay for the reception because, it was clear, he would not be able to make it through the reception. The guest wasn’t sure they could vote for Biden, since the guest was now open to an idea that they had previously dismissed as right-wing propaganda: The president may not really be the acting president after all.
Others told me the president was becoming increasingly hard to get ahold of, even as it related to official government business, the type of things any U.S. president would communicate about on a regular basis with high-level officials across the world. Biden instead was cocooned within mounting layers of bureaucracy, spoken for more than he was speaking or spoken to.
Saying hello to one Democratic megadonor and family friend at the White House recently, the president stared blankly and nodded his head. The First Lady intervened to whisper in her husband’s ear, telling him to say “hello” to the donor by name and to thank them for their recent generosity. The president repeated the words his wife had fed him. “It hasn’t been good for a long time but it’s gotten so, so much worse,” a witness to the exchange told me. “So much worse!”
Who was actually in charge? Nobody knew. But surely someone was in charge? And surely there must be a plan, since surely this situation could not endure? I heard these questions posed at cocktail parties on the coasts but also at MAGA rallies in Middle America. There emerged a comical overlap between the beliefs of the nation’s most elite liberal Biden supporters and the beliefs of the most rabid and conspiratorial supporters of former President Trump. Resistance or QAnon, they shared a grand theory of America in 2024: There has to be a secret group of high-level government leaders who control Biden and who will soon set into motion their plan to replace Biden as the Democratic presidential nominee. Nothing else made sense. They were in full agreement.
What I saw for myself confirmed something was amiss. I spent much of the spring, summer, and fall of 2020 on the primary campaign trail with Biden. In the period before he was granted Secret Service protection, his events, which were usually of modest size, were more freewheeling affairs, and reporters inched up to the candidate as he interacted with voters at the rope line. He rarely took questions. A teetotaler, he was not the kind of candidate who hung out at the hotel bar after the campaigning day was through (on occasion, Jill Biden would enjoy a glass of Pinot Noir in a Marriott lobby with her aides), but he was visible and closely observable.
A campaign trail is a grueling exercise for anybody of any age, from the youngest network embeds to the oldest would-be presidents, and back then, there were days when Biden appeared sharper than on others. I knew it was a good day when he saw me and winked. On such occasions, he joked and prayed and cried with voters. He stayed to take a photo with every supporter. He might even entertain a question or two from the press. He had color in his face. There was no question he was alive and present. On bad days, which were unpredictable but reliably occurred during a challenging news cycle, he was less animated. He stared off. He did not make eye contact. He would trip over his words, even if they were programmed in a teleprompter. On such occasions, he was hurried out of the venue quickly and ushered into a waiting SUV.
This April, at a reception before the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, I joined a sea of people waiting for a photo with the president and First Lady in the basement of the Washington Hilton. A photo line is a trauma. The main attraction must stand there, reduced to a human prop, with person after person, group after group, nodding and saying “hello” and flashing the same smile a zillion times so that guests leave the event with their little token commemorating their split second in proximity to history. People of all ages suffer in a photo line. It is tiring and unnatural, an icky transaction that requires robotic discipline on the part of its star and reveals primal horrors on the part of its participants. In Washington, even the most allegedly serious people can behave like pushy fangirls. So I grade photo-line behavior and performance on a curve. Who can be their best selves wedged into such a nightmarish dynamic? And in the basement of a Hilton, no less.
The first person I saw upon entering the subterranean space was the First Lady. I maintain personal fondness for Dr. Biden, whose controversial preferred honorific I am using out of respect. The day that my mother died, I happened to be traveling with her in Virginia, and when she learned about it, she was incredibly decent. She called to talk with me about grief, and she sent me a lovely note. The Bidens are famous for their willingness and ability to mourn with others, so I was not surprised exactly, but I was impressed, since among White House officials, members of the Biden family, and supporters of the president, I had always been treated with suspicion or outright contempt after my critical coverage of him during the 2020 campaign. I had written that there were “[c]oncerns, implicit or explicit, about his ability to stay agile and alive for the next four years,” and that “[f]or political reporters, marveling every day at just how well this isn’t going, watching Biden can feel like being at the rodeo. You’re there because on some level you know you might see someone get killed.” Biden-world insiders did not appreciate that very much, and they never forgot or fully forgave it. I was particularly touched then by the First Lady’s kindness, and I always think of that when I see her.
In the basement, I smiled and said hello. She looked back at me with a confused, panicked expression. It was as if she had just received horrible news and was about to run out of the room and into some kind of a family emergency. “Uh, hi,” she said. Then she glanced over to her right. Oh …
I had not seen the president up close in some time. I had skipped this season’s holiday parties, and, preoccupied with covering Trump’s legal and political dramas, I hadn’t been showing up at his White House. Unlike Trump, he wasn’t very accessible to the press, anyway. Why bother? Biden had done few interviews. He wasn’t prone to interrupting his schedule with a surprise media circus in the Oval Office. He kept a tight circle of the same close advisers who had been advising him for more than 30 years, so unlike with his predecessor, you didn’t need to hang around in West Wing hallways to figure out who was speaking to him. It was all pretty locked down and predictable in terms of the reality you could access as a member of the press with a White House hard pass.
I followed the First Lady’s gaze and found the president. Now I understood her panicked expression.
Up close, the president does not look quite plausible. It’s not that he’s old. We all know what old looks like. Bernie Sanders is old. Mitch McConnell is old. Most of the ruling class is old. The president was something stranger, something not of this earth.
This was true even in 2020. His face had then an uncanny valley quality that injectable aficionados call “low trust” — if only by millimeters, his cosmetically altered proportions knocked his overall facial harmony into the realm of the improbable. His thin skin, long a figurative problem and now a literal one, was pulled tightly over cheeks that seemed to vary month to month in volume. Under artificial light and in the sunshine, he took on an unnatural gleam. He looked, well, inflated. His eyes were half-shut or open very wide. They appeared darker than they once had, his pupils dilated. He did not blink at regular intervals. The White House often did not engage when questioned about the president’s stare, which sometimes raised alarm on social media when documented in official videos produced by the White House. The administration was above conspiratorial chitchat that entertained seriously scenarios in which the president was suffering from a shocking decline most Americans were not seeing. If the president was being portrayed that way, it was by his political enemies on the right, who promoted through what the press office termed “cheap fakes” a caricature of an addled creature unfit to serve. They would not dignify those people, or people doing the bidding of those people, with a response.
For many inclined to support the president, this was good enough. They did not need to monitor the president’s public appearances, because under his leadership the country had returned to the kind of normal state in which members of a First World democratic society had the privilege to forget about the president for hours or days or even weeks at a time. Trump required constant observation. What did he just do? What would he do next? Oh God, what was he doing right at that moment? Biden could be trusted to perform the duties of his office out of sight. Many people were content to look away.
My heart stopped as I extended my hand to greet the president. I tried to make eye contact, but it was like his eyes, though open, were not on. His face had a waxy quality. He smiled. It was a sweet smile. It made me sad in a way I can’t fully convey. I always thought — and I wrote — that he was a decent man. If ambition was his only sin, and it seemed to be, he had committed no sin at all by the standards of most politicians I had covered. He took my hand in his, and I was startled by how it felt. Not cold but cool. The basement was so warm that people were sweating and complaining that they were sweating. This was a silly black-tie affair. I said “hello.” His sweet smile stayed frozen. He spoke very slowly and in a very soft voice. “And what’s your name?” he asked.
Exiting the room after the photo, the group of reporters — not instigated by me, I should note — made guesses about how dead he appeared to be, percentage wise. “Forty percent?” one of them asked.
“It was a bad night.” That’s the spin from the White House and its allies about Thursday’s debate. But when I watched the president amble stiffly across the stage, my first thought was: He doesn’t look so bad. For months, everything I had heard, plus some of what I had seen, led me to brace for something much more dire.

Comer Subpoenas White House Aides Running Interference for President Biden Amid Cognitive Decline
WASHINGTON—House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) today issued subpoenas to three key White House staff who are reportedly running interference for President Biden and doing the President’s job for him amid his declining cognitive state. According to one former Biden aide, these three employees – Annie Tomasini, Anthony Bernal, and Ashley Williams – have created “a protective bubble around” President Biden and he is “staffed so closely that he’s lost all independence.” Chairman Comer previously sought testimony from these White House aides as part of the Committee’s investigation of President Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, but the White House has refused to make them available.
“The White House has shielded three key aides from testifying about President Biden’s mishandling of classified documents and now we’ve learned through reporting these same aides are also seeking to cover up President Biden’s declining cognitive state inside the White House. President Biden is clearly unfit for office, yet his staff are trying to hide the truth from the American people. Key White House staff must come before our committee so we can provide the transparency and accountability that Americans deserve,” said Chairman Comer.
The subpoena cover letters can be found here:
Ashley Williams, Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Director of Oval Office Operations (deposition on July 23, 2024)
Anthony Bernal, Assistant to the President and Senior Advisor to the First Lady (deposition on July 24, 2024)
Annie Tomasini, Deputy Chief of Staff (deposition on July 25, 2024)
Additional Background: The Oversight Committee’s investigation of Joe Biden’s mishandling of classified documents has exposed the White House’s and Biden’s personal attorney’s unraveling narrative of events. Information obtained through multiple transcribed interviews conducted by the Oversight Committee contradicted the White House’s and President Biden’s personal attorney’s narrative about the discovery of classified documents at the Penn Biden Center, including the location and security of classified documents. The Oversight Committee also learned that five White House employees – including Annie Tomasini, Anthony Bernal, and Ashley Williams – and a Department of Defense employee were involved in the early stages of coordinating the organizing, moving, and removing of boxes that were later found to contain classified materials.

VDH on the parallels between the late stage USSR and Biden’s current presidential straights:
Our Brezhnev, Our Pravda, Our Soviet Union. . .
Like the late-stage Leonid Brezhnev, Biden is now a president in name only. What is next for our increasingly Soviet state?
By Victor Davis Hanson
July 11, 2024
Leonid Brezhnev led the former Soviet Union as General Secretary of the Communist Party until 1982. But like most Russian apparatchiks who excessively smoked, drank, and gained weight, he aged prematurely. Also like them, his disabilities never led to his abdication.
By Brezhnev’s late sixties and early seventies, he was too ill to travel abroad or make public appearances. Indeed, his debility left the Soviet Union without a real leader for the final six or seven years of his tenure.
Brezhnev got away with it because the Soviet state-controlled media doctored photos and videos to attest to his supposedly vigorous health and constant hands-on involvement.
“Journalists” sent out false communiques. They spun narratives that Brezhnev was robust, hale, and working long hours on behalf of the Russian people. Any dissenting journalists who sought to report the true, sad state of affairs were in danger of losing their jobs, freedom—or even their lives.
Instead, the “reporters” of Pravda (“Truth”), the official print megaphone of the Central Committee of the Communist Party, wrote lies about Brezhnev’s busy workdays. Pravda’s handlers spun fables about the respect (and fear) the rest of the world held for such a dynamic leader—even as Brezhnev became an ill virtual recluse.
The cynical Russian people shrugged because they had long been accustomed to their lying media and the falsehoods they peddled. And besides, Brezhnev was a doctrinaire Stalinist communist. So his job was not to rock the boat or upset the Russian communist hierarchy.
Instead, he reigned over the penultimate Soviet “era of stagnation,” while an ossified communism increasingly destroyed all incentives and hope, leaving the Russian people poor, cynical, and helpless.
Something similar has happened to a calcified America under President Joe Biden. Like the late-stage Leonid Brezhnev, Biden is now a president in name only. He has outsourced his administration to a vestigial hard-left apparat from the Obama years.
Now, Biden can no longer even perform his assigned ceremonial tasks of putting a moderate veneer on radical, nihilist agendas that are stagnating the country.
Yet our Pravda journalists have sworn to the American people that, in private, the reclusive, three-day-a-week Biden outpaces the energy and drive of those half his age. Obsequious staffers plant stories in the Soviet-like ears of reporters about Biden’s singular dynamism.
Any dissenters are publicly demonized as peddlers of “cheap fakes.”
When Biden’s reclusiveness prompts too much gossip that he is near senile, he is wheeled out for a staged interview that must be edited before release. Or he answers questions secretly shown to him in advance.
On sporadic occasions where the state media and the Biden nomenklatura cannot control events—such as rare presidential debates or international summits—our Pravda media go into overdrive to convince the public that what they see and hear is not real.
In the end, Brezhnev could not even hobble to the May Day dais to celebrate communism’s national holiday.
He soon reached the point that his debilities were so manifest that even his hirelings and the media could not hide them. He then vanished from public view, leaving the Russian people with no idea as to who was running their communist nation.
Then one day, Soviet propagandists announced suddenly but matter-of-factly that the dynamic Brezhnev had died and that his successor, Yuri Andropov, was now brilliantly running the Soviet Union.
Biden, too, is at that point of stasis. He cannot do press conferences, town halls, debates, or real interviews. To do so would confirm to the public the truth: that Biden is too cognitively challenged to continue his presidency.
And yet the cloistered Biden can no longer hide during a campaign season with his accustomed three-day workweek.
The media has done its best to continue its Orwellian ruse. They claim that Trump interrupted Biden (he did not) in the recent debate and that he lied (if so, not as much as did Biden). Sometimes, the press corps just blurts out that an inert, left-wing Biden is still preferable to a dynamic, conservative Trump.
What is next for our increasingly Soviet state?
We will continue to be lectured on the vigor of Biden—until one day we aren’t, when Biden either steps down—or worse.
Then, our Pravda will likely present the new official narrative. They will convince us that his successor, Vice President Kamala Harris, is an underappreciated genius whose past portfolios led to solving the border crisis and renewing American dominance in space.
One day, the same reporters who swore Biden was a virtual Socrates behind closed doors and then suddenly just confessed he was not when their lies were no longer operative will sing the praises of our new comrade leader—the brilliant, accomplished, eloquent, and articulate Kamala Harris.

It’s a bad sign when you have to demand the ability to edit an interview on a non-visual medium:
🚨 #BREAKING: Milkwaukee Radio Network Civic Media has just ADMITTED the Biden campaign made them make MULTIPLE EDITS to Biden’s radio interview before it aired
This is absurd, and Trump would NEVER get away with that.
The edits went as far as “removing entire segments” and making cuts, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
This comes just days after a Philly radio host admitted she had been given questions by the Biden regime in advance. She was later fired.
Apparently Biden can’t even handle PRE-RECORDED interviews anymore.

Given all the stories now coming out about how Biden’s cognitive decline was known prior to his poor debate performance can the associated fundraising be construed as fraud?
Was Covering Up Biden’s Condition a Quarter Billion Dollar Fraud?
The Biden campaign might be the single greatest act of financial fraud in history.
July 17, 2024 by Daniel Greenfield 20 Comments

[Order Daniel Greenfield’s new book, Domestic Enemies: HERE.]
“Last month I co-hosted the single largest fund-raiser supporting any Democratic candidate ever, for President Biden’s re-election,” former ER actor George Clooney revealed in a New York Times op-ed calling for him to drop out. “It’s devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe ‘big F-ing deal’ Biden of 2010. He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.”
At the fundraiser, George Clooney called Biden a star instead of telling the truth about him.
Did the movie star reveal his misgivings to any of those who contributed $30 million at the fundraiser? Or to those in his circle of acquaintances who would go on to attend other $2,500 a plate fundraisers for Biden in the Los Angeles area? Or did he keep quiet until now?
According to Clooney, who also got Obama to sign off on his attack, “this isn’t only my opinion; this is the opinion of every senator and Congress member and governor who I’ve spoken with in private. Every single one, irrespective of what he or she is saying publicly.”
That’s not just an indictment of Biden, but of Clooney, Obama and every Dem legislator who kept on raising millions for the presidential campaign of a candidate they knew was unfit.
The Clooney fundraiser outraised the previous $26 million fundraiser by Stephen Colbert, whose presence on CBS’ fading late night show is an undisclosed contribution by Paramount to the Democrats. Colbert has now also suggested that Biden might want to step down.
The two fundraisers were part of a much larger haul during which Biden raised $127 million last month with nearly a quarter of a billion dollars being held by his committees.
Those fundraisers were based on what Democrats, including some of those involved in the fundraisers, have now admitted was a lie: that Biden was a viable presidential candidate.
If even the partial haul of $264 million were treated as a fraud, it would be massive in scope.
After Biden’s debate disaster, one Democrat insider after another has come forward to reveal that they knew about his state. Some of those covering up the fraud benefited materially from the Biden campaign while others used their connection to it to obtain status and influence.
Certainly that would potentially apply to Joe Biden, to close Biden family members, allies and staffers as well as to a much larger circle of political operatives, consultants and donors who concealed the truth about his condition while encouraging donations to his political campaign.
The question “what did the president know and when did he know it” may be only so applicable to Joe Biden whom Special Counsel Robert Hur deemed likely to get off in any criminal case on account of presenting himself as an elderly man with a poor memory, but those around him have no such defense. And those who are now coming forward to denounce Biden are also in some cases potentially exposing themselves to criminal liability for their role in the cover-up.
If they had been selling a car, a house or pushing stock in a company that they knew was being fundamentally misrepresented as fit for its intended purpose, there would be a risk of liability.
Viewed as a fraudulent enterprise, the Biden campaign, its associated committees, PACs and the larger Democrat Party is staggering in scope. It might even be the single greatest fraud in American history in which a tremendous number of people were also aware of the fraud.
Former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau, who co-founded Fenway Strategies and served on the board of Let America Vote, claimed that, “It was not surprising to any of us who were at the fundraiser. I was there. Clooney was exactly right, and every single person I talked to at the fundraiser thought the same thing.” And Favreau made the decision to keep quiet about it.
“I remember my wife, Emily, turned to me after the fundraiser and said, ‘What are we going to do?’ And I said, ‘Well, there is a debate in a week. Either he’ll do well in the debate, and we’ll think he was just tired because he flew all the way back from Europe, and that’ll be that, or he’ll be like this at the debate and then the whole country will be talking about it. So, here we are.”
The decision by Democrats was to keep covering it up until it couldn’t be covered up anymore.
Some Dems had invested heavily in Biden already and were treating it as a pyramid scheme that they had to try and keep going at all costs. If we believe the Democrat operatives, media figures and other insiders who keep regaling us with how they knew about Biden’s condition, then much of the party continued to raise money even while hiding information that would have dissuaded donors from continuing to contribute to the Biden presidential campaign.
Since the debate, media reports describe donors refusing to donate or to take calls.
“Disastrous.” NBC News quoted a source in the Biden campaign, reporting that “the money has absolutely shut off.” Sources claimed that donations from large donors were “down by possibly half” or even according to one “much more.”
This establishes that donors would not have handed out the tens of millions that they did over the previous weeks, not to mention the much larger sums taken in during previous months, if they had been made aware of Biden’s true state. Democrat insiders knew of that. It is difficult then to see how hiding that information from donors while asking them to donate wasn’t fraud.
There’s potential civil liability for recruiters, much as there can be in a pyramid scheme in which the recruiters are aware that the larger campaign is fraudulent, but there may also be criminal liability as well should state or federal authorities choose to pursue this question.
Democrats are coming forward to accuse the Biden family of one of the largest frauds in history. But many, if not most of them, were aware of the fraud and chose to keep quiet for political, personal or financial reasons. Complicity in the quarter billion dollar fraud may be widespread.
The question is whether state and federal authorities will impose consequences on those who fundraised, who benefited and who kept on lying as long as the millions kept rolling in.

As the piece points out, the same folks that were calling you a liar three weeks ago are now saying Joe must go for those same reasons:
Joe Won't Go
All he needs is "No"
JIM TREACHER
JUL 19, 2024
A lot of Democrats are underestimating what a stubborn, selfish asshole Joe Biden is. Which you’d think they’d know, having handed him all this power in the first place.
Right now, pretty much every Democrat who called you a fascist liar three weeks ago — yes, a mere three weeks — is saying the same thing you’ve been saying for four years.
He’s too old. He can barely finish a sentence. At times, he thinks Trump is his vice president. He’s exhausted. He clearly can’t do the job.
You wouldn’t hire him to greet people at Costco, let alone serve as the leader of the free world.
Now they think trying to reason with him will do it. If they just point out the obvious to him, he’ll say, “Well gosh, I guess you’re right. How could I have been so foolish? Thanks, everybody!”
Does that really sound like Joe Biden?
Did the Dems actually convince themselves of the “kindly grandpa” B.S. they’ve been pushing for four years? Did they forget what they put in their own Kool-Aid?
If Biden gave a damn about anybody but himself, he wouldn’t have run at such an advanced age in the first place.1 They dragged him across the finish line in 2020. Now they think he’ll just give it all up because they’re crying?
Trying to wish him away isn’t working. Leaking and planting stories about him wavering isn’t working. This isn’t his first transparently obvious media campaign.
Why would he listen to the people who’ve been propping him up for four years? In his addled mind, they owe him.
What, he’s gonna step down because Obama wants it? They thought the “bromance” crap was real?
Obama picked Biden as his insurance policy in 2008 — “Okay, you racists, if anything happens to me, you’re stuck with this clown” — and Biden knows it. He knows Barry thinks he’s a screwup, and now he’s the one holding all the cards. Obama can pull all the strings he wants behind the scenes, but the Clooney Gambit didn’t work and neither will any of this.
Don’t take it from me, take it from Bidenworld:
“In 2015, Obama, Pelosi, Schumer pushed Biden aside in favor of Hillary; they were wrong then and they are wrong now.”
And:
“Can we all just remember for a minute that these same people who are trying to push Joe Biden out are the same people who literally gave us all Donald Trump?”
Biden thinks he knows better than any of them. After all, he’s the president and they’re not, right?
If they want him out, they’ll need to impeach him and invoke the 25th Amendment. Then they’ll be stuck with Cackles McKneepads.
And Kamala will need to explain why she pretended Joe was in tip-top shape for four years, and then stabbed him in the back the minute it stopped working. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but she’s not exactly quick on her feet.
The Dems and their pundits and “journalists” can plead with Biden all they want, but all he needs is one word in rebuttal:
“No.”
He can still pronounce that one.
Biden is a bitter, resentful old man who can’t be forced to do anything he doesn’t want to do, because he’s finally sitting on the throne he’s craved his whole life. If they want him out, it’s gonna take more than a few “BREAKING” chyrons on cable news.
“But he can’t possibly win reelection!” Yeah, I know that. You know that. He won’t allow himself to know that. If he admits he can’t win in November, then he has no argument for staying in power at all.
He’s been in Washington since before Twitter. Before CNN. Hell, before Watergate! He was lying to reporters when Obama was still popping his zits in Honolulu.
The old man is a damn barnacle. They’re gonna have to scrape him off, and it might just put a hole in the hull.
Joe Biden doesn’t know much anymore, but he still knows how power works. My money’s on the old bastard giving everybody two middle fingers till they close the casket.
Me? I choose to remember the happier times:
Now watch him drop out 10 minutes after I post this. It would serve me right for acting like I know what I’m talking about!
What a week, huh?
Here are a few things that have happened within the last seven days:
Donald Trump was nearly assassinated, and a Pennsylvania firefighter was murdered in the attempt
The head of the Secret Service was exposed as a complete incompetent
The shooter apparently had no discernible motive
After a series of disastrous media appearances, Joe Biden “got COVID-19” and his party finally turned on him with knives drawn, including Morning Joe
Dr. Ruth died
Richard Simmons died
Bob Newhart died
Lou Dobbs died
Microsoft laid off their whole DEI team
Bob Mendendez finally got nailed for the corruption we’ve all known about for decades
Max Boot’s wife (and occasional co-author) was indicted as an unregistered agent of the South Korean government
Hulk Hogan and Kid Rock appeared at the Republican National Convention, and any living Republican president or vice president did not
Matt Gaetz debuted his new face
Trump made a triumphant appearance at the RNC but then talked for like two freaking hours2
There’s probably a bunch of other stuff I’ve forgotten.
Are you as tired as I am? Say what you want about Trump, but at least he never sleeps!

Did he jump ship due to poor polling, which disregards the will of primary voters, or is it due to his clear decline, which make suggests the 25th amendment should be invoked:
Succession by defenestration: How Biden’s withdrawal could trigger a 25th Amendment fight
The Hill News / by Jonathan Turley / Jul 21, 2024 at 4:32 PM
President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw as the Democratic Party’s nominee solved an immediate problem for his party. Biden has plummeted in the polls as the vast majority of voters concluded that he is too diminished by age to serve another term. Yet, it has now created several new problems, including the obvious problem of a president who is viewed as incapable of running for an office that he continues to hold.
The Democratic Party essentially created its own political version of the 25th Amendment in forcing Biden off the ticket. This decision was about as voluntary as leaving a building by way of a window on the 46th floor. That is particularly the case when you are thrown out of the window by your closest friends.
The unseemly image of succession by defenestration will soon be whitewashed by a media that will praise Biden after weeks of declaring him incompetent and enfeebled.
That, however, leaves the lingering question after the fall. How can Biden remain in office when he is incapable of running for the office?
Biden is notably vague about the reason for his withdrawal after maintaining for days that he will be the party’s nominee. He simply says that it is in the best interests of the country.
The Democratic establishment has two equally unappealing options.
First, it could argue that Biden was withdrawing out of recognition that he is no longer politically viable. But that makes a mockery out of the democratic process. Millions of people went through the primary elections to select him as their nominee. Now he would be set aside and replaced by a vote of the party establishment like a shift in the Russian politburo.
Second, it could admit that Biden was, as stated for weeks in the media and by figures like Special Counsel Robert Hur, greatly diminished both mentally and physically. However, that makes this withdrawal an admission that could trigger a fight under the 25th Amendment.
The development could create a new constitutional controversy. The 25th Amendment was written with largely physical disabilities in mind. If a president is comatose, the incapacity is obvious and Section 4 allows the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet to sign a declaration to Congress that a president is incapable of holding office.
However, Harris is eager to avoid the image of Brutus in the dispatching of the president. To support such a declaration would risk Biden proclaiming “Et tu, Kamala?” to the nation. The key to succession by defenestration is not to be seen as the hand that pushes the president out the window. Politics follows the same rules as the mafia for capo di tutti i capi: Kill a don, never be a don. While sometimes honored in the breach in the mob, it is hardly an auspicious path for a politician.
There is, however, another intriguing possibility.
Section 4 provides that when the “Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or such other body as Congress may by law provide.”
Previously Democrats have cited that language to suggest that they could create their own body to force former President Donald Trump out of office. Indeed, Rep. Jaime Raskin (D-Md.) sponsored legislation called the Oversight Commission on Presidential Capacity Act to create a commission empowered to examine a president to Congress on the president’s capacity. It would circumvent the necessity of getting Harris to be the hand that dispatched a president.
The question is whether Congress will now make this decision to warrant an investigation or even a Raskin-like bill.
This is different than President Lyndon Johnson's decision on March 31, 1968, that "I shall not seek, and I will not accept the nomination of my party for another term as your president."
That was before any primaries. In this case, Biden won a primary in which the Democratic Party obstructed anyone who would challenge him and barred any debate.
Millions voted for him, and tens of millions of dollars were contributed to his campaign. He is now withdrawing weeks before accepting the nomination. That unprecedented decision alone would warrant a House investigation into Biden's continuing capacity to serve in an office that he no longer believes he can run to occupy after January 2025.
Before this decision, a special counsel cited President Biden's diminished faculties as a reason not to indict him for unlawfully retaining and handling classified material. Now, the president is effectively saying that, in addition to being allegedly too diminished to be prosecuted, he is too diminished to run for the office that he currently holds.
The question is whether Biden has ended the fight to retain his nomination only to trigger a fight to retain his office.

Report claims Biden bad a medical emergency in Vegas. The source piece contains some embedded tweets that didn't transfer over:
Exclusive: President Biden suffered an undisclosed medical emergency during his time in Las Vegas, police sources say
Air Force One “flew so fast the plane shook" on its way back to the east coast.
JORDAN SCHACHTEL
JUL 23, 2024
When President Joe Biden began his campaign trip in Las Vegas last week, everything seemed to be running as smoothly as it could for an 81-year-old president in physical and cognitive decline.
The day before he abruptly left town, Biden delivered the keynote address in front of a packed crowd of almost five thousand people at the NAACP National Convention at the Mandalay Bay hotel.
On Wednesday, Biden was scheduled to deliver the keynote at the UnidosUS annual convention at the MGM Grand, with thousands in attendance anticipating his arrival. With the venue located right off the Las Vegas Strip, the president’s security detail and motorcade required massive outside support from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
President Biden did not appear at the convention, or any of his scheduled events later that afternoon. Instead, he left town, departing Las Vegas on Air Force One for Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, where he remains today.
Since that trip to Las Vegas, President Biden has announced over social media that he would not seek a second term as president, while throwing his support behind Vice President Kamala Harris for the Democratic nomination. President Biden has not been seen in photos or on video since he touched down in Delaware Wednesday night, though he did participate in a phone call with Kamala Harris earlier this evening.
The president’s communications staff and doctor said that the president had tested positive for Covid-19, declaring that it was the reason for the cancellation of his schedule and his change of plans in Las Vegas.
Dr. Kevin O’Connor, the president’s White House physician (and a family business partner), said Biden “presented this afternoon with upper respiratory symptoms, to include rhinorrhea (runny nose) and non-productive cough, with general malaise,” signaling that the president had nothing more than cold-like symptoms.
We are told a very different story. We have verified that several of the core elements in Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s viral X post from Monday are indeed true, according to law enforcement sources.
The Dossier obtained independent testimony from over half a dozen law enforcement officers who participated in the president’s security detail, and others who spoke from firsthand knowledge of the incident that unfolded that day.
For this story, we worked with Turning Point Action to secure the testimony of several sources and vet their legitimacy.
Officers working the president’s detail describe that Wednesday as chaotic from the very start. President Biden was already way behind schedule before the incident. Several sources said things really went haywire after he had been present at a famed local Mexican restaurant called Lindo Michoacan, where he was doing the rounds shaking hands and greeting donors.
Then suddenly, when he was supposed to be scheduled to deliver the UnidosUS speech, all hell broke loose.
Several law enforcement officers on duty that day were informed over the radio that the president was dealing with an unspecified medical emergency. Far from a case of the sniffles, this was sent out on encrypted police airwaves as if something akin to a five-alarm fire had broken out.
Our sources estimate that it was “easily” hundreds of Las Vegas Metropolitan officers and employees who heard the broadcasts live, so a curious media shouldn’t have a problem reporting any follow-ups to this story. The dispatches made clear that this was much more than a mere change of plans, because it set into motion so much of their on-duty emergency response apparatus.
Radio dispatchers responsible for coordinating with the president’s detail requested an immediate “surge” of law enforcement resources into the area, both to secure the vicinity and to expedite the president’s movement.
According to these law enforcement sources, the president’s motorcade was initially planning on heading to University Medical Center (UMC), which was located about two miles up the road from the president’s position. Police answered the call, rapidly deploying their “in the box” emergency squads to faciltate the reroute to the hospital.
While researching for this story, we found that the local NBC affiliate KSNV confirmed last week, without much publicity, that UMC “was on standby after being alerted about a possible medical issue with President Joe Biden Wednesday afternoon while he was visiting Southern Nevada.”
But the president’s team decided not to bring him to the hospital. The plans changed in rapid succession once more. It was then relayed over to on duty officers on the president’s detail that they would need to clear an express route to Harry Reid International Airport. The police assigned to the president’s detail and the emergency “in the box” squads then redeployed their resources to getting the president out of town as fast and as safe as humanly possible.
Emily Goodin, the senior white house correspondent for The Daily Mail, reported that on the journey back east, Air Force One “flew so fast the plane shook,” arriving in Dover in just 3 hours and 48 minutes.
Several of the officers we spoke to said this was indeed being reported and acted upon as a full-blown medical emergency, insisting that a simple positive Covid-19 test would not have warranted such a drastic, massive response.
Only President Biden and his inner circle seem to know the truth about what exactly happened last week in Las Vegas. Hopefully, the public will be made aware of the events that necessitated his emergency departure from Sin City.
Thanks again to the fantastic team at Turning Point Action for securing some of the sourcing for this story.

We have pictures and one shows them walking up to Biden with their trick or treat bags.
I asked what they got - candy and books.
Cool, even if it is Biden. 8-)

At the end of President Biden's statement on the fall of the Assad government in Syria on Sunday, RCP reporter Phil Wegmann asked if the U.S. plans to do anything to rescue Austin Tice, a Marine Corps veteran and journalist who has allegedly been held by the Syrian government for more than 12 years.

REPORTER: What does the U.S. know about where Austin Tice might be and if he's safe?
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: We believe he's alive, we think we can get him back, but we have no direct evidence of that yet, and Assad should be held accountable.
PHIL WEGMANN, REALCLEARPOLITICS: Have you directed an operation to go get him, Mr. President?
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: Get who?
PHIL WEGMANN: Austin Tice.
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: We will want to get him out, but we have to identify where he is.

President Biden issues statement on Abundant Life shooting: 'We need Congress to act. Now.'
The White House released the following statement from President Biden in response to the shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Wisconsin today:
Today, families in Madison, Wisconsin, are grieving the loss of those who were killed and wounded at Abundant Life Christian School. It’s shocking and unconscionable.
We need Congress to act. Now.
From Newtown to Uvalde, Parkland to Madison, to so many other shootings that don’t receive attention - it is unacceptable that we are unable to protect our children from this scourge of gun violence. We cannot continue to accept it as normal. Every child deserves to feel safe in their class room. Students across our country should be learning how to read and write – not having to learn how to duck and cover.
Jill and I are praying for all the victims today, including the teacher and teenage student who were killed and those who sustained injuries. We are grateful for the first responders who quickly arrived on the scene, and the FBI is supporting local law enforcement efforts. At my direction, my team has reached out to local officials to offer further support as needed.
My administration has taken aggressive action to combat the gun violence epidemic. We passed the most significant gun safety legislation in nearly 30 years, I have taken more executive action to reduce gun violence than any other President in history, and I created the first-ever White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. But more is needed. Congress must pass commonsense gun safety laws: Universal background checks. A national red flag law. A ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.
We can never accept senseless violence that traumatizes children, their families, and tears entire communities apart.
Then watch:
Then imagine someone banging his glabella and he spits out this statement you read above.
Same idiotic reflex statement canned and ready to go out into the MSM catacombs.

(Doug) He was at least partially incapacitated the entire 4 years. They tried and failed to cover it up. They are still under a constitutional responsibility to remove him and refuse based on some secret agreement they made an infirmed man last summer. 'If you drop out of the race we won't remove you from office', best interests of the nation be damned.

The Biden cover-up is fast unraveling
By
Washington Examiner
December 22, 2024 12:00 am
President Joe Biden’s catch-and-release policies for illegal immigration that caused a historic invasion of the United States was the first scandal of his presidency, but it was his catastrophic withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan that destroyed his public standing and pushed him permanently into disapproval.
These pages noted at the time that Biden’s mental capacity was slipping and that his diminished ability to remember key facts may have cost the lives of many Afghan civilians and 13 American service members.
At a White House press conference days before those 13 soldiers were killed, Biden falsely claimed that al-Qaida had been driven out of Afghanistan entirely, and the White House was forced to retract this nonsense just hours later. Biden also falsely claimed that there was “no indication” that Americans stuck in Kabul “haven’t been able to get” to the airport, a vacuous statement rebutted by news outlets within minutes. The president was clearly losing his grip on reality.
We are now learning that it was not just outside observers such as the Washington Examiner that were worried about Biden drifting off into la la land. The Wall Street Journal has revealed that as early as spring 2021, the start of his presidency, national security officials admitted to each other that Biden “has good days and bad days,” often causing key national security meetings to be canceled.
Biden notoriously ignored the advice of his generals on Afghanistan. Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA), then the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, tried to get to Biden personally to get him to attend to reality but now says he was denied access to the president. He contrasted this with his access to former President Barack Obama, even when he was, himself, a much lower-ranking committee member. Similarly, Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT) of the House Intelligence Committee now discloses that while he engaged Obama personally many times on the reauthorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, “I really had no personal contact” with Biden.
Biden’s diminished mental capacity was clear not only to White House staff members and Democratic lawmakers. For example, he repeatedly confused former British Prime Minister Theresa May with the long-dead Margaret Thatcher; he said Democrats would “take back” the House of Representatives in 2022, when they already controlled it; he blanked on the most famous phrase in the Declaration of Independence and shouted mid-speech, “You know, you know — the thing!”; he mistakenly called Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin his secretary of state; and he invited a woman who had been dead for eight weeks to join him onstage at an event. Biden’s access to Air Force One had to be modified because he kept falling as he tried to climb on board. He also fell off his bike in front of reporters in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. He has wandered around lost onstage repeatedly after delivering speeches. The list of semi-geriatric goofs is endless.
They cannot be dismissed as minor flubs. Biden twice claimed that the U.S. would defend Taiwan from a Chinese invasion, which was a radical departure from actual policy, and White House staff had sheepishly to correct him.

All this time, elected Democratic Party officials, including Vice President Kamala Harris, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), vigorously claimed Biden was just fine, and hacks in the news media endorsed their lies and lobbed accusations of bias at those who preferred to believe their lying eyes and ears. The Democratic Party’s media allies, particularly MSNBC and CNN, attacked the credibility of anyone who noted Biden’s mental freefall, saying they, we, were spreading “misinformation” and “cheap fakes.”
But Democrats surveying the landscape in the aftermath of defeat and just a few weeks before Biden shuffles off into belated retirement are now more willing to admit the truth. We expect we are just beginning to learn how bad Biden’s mental state was throughout his time in office and how far Democratic officials and their media allies went to cover it up. Our advice to them all is to come clean. But we won’t hold our breath waiting.

Opinion piece contrasting a declining Biden holding on to power via proxies to George Washington's departure:
We Still Don’t Know Who Is Running Our Government
What would George Washington think of the self-serving Biden coterie?
By
James Freeman
The Biden family boards Marine One in New Castle, Delaware on Thursday.
It was 241 years ago today that Gen. George Washington gave America the greatest Christmas gift any nation has ever received—except of course for the gift of Christmas itself. A few months after the signing of the Treaty of Paris, in which Great Britain acknowledged America’s independence, Washington resigned his commission as commander in chief of the Continental Army. At a moment when much of the country would happily have allowed him to claim much greater authority, his deference to a controversial Congress kept the United States firmly on the course of representative government.
In contrast to Washington’s selfless refusal to seize power in 1783, today we observe in the White House a self-serving spectacle and we don’t even know who exactly is wielding the executive authority of the U.S. government. We know only that people who were never elected have spent years creating and enforcing a charade of Biden competence, and that the power vacuum in the Oval Office has created myriad opportunities for self-servers to exercise powers to which they are not entitled.
Last week the Journal’s Annie Linskey, Rebecca Ballhaus, Emily Glazer and Siobhan Hughes reported on the work of aides to President Joe Biden:
To adapt the White House around the needs of a diminished leader, they told visitors to keep meetings focused. Interactions with senior Democratic lawmakers and some cabinet members—including powerful secretaries such as Defense’s Lloyd Austin and Treasury’s Janet Yellen—were infrequent or grew less frequent. Some legislative leaders had a hard time getting the president’s ear at key moments, including ahead of the U.S.’s disastrous pullout from Afghanistan.
Senior advisers were often put into roles that some administration officials and lawmakers thought Biden should occupy…
Mr. Biden’s diminished state is not new. Right after he dropped out of the presidential race last summer, Ms. Ballhaus, Ms. Hughes and Ms. Linskey reported along with Andrew Restuccia and Erich Schwartzel:
President Biden had just finished trying to persuade a group of congressional Democrats to pass a $1 trillion infrastructure bill when Nancy Pelosi, then the House speaker, took the microphone.
In 30 minutes of remarks on Capitol Hill, Biden had spoken disjointedly and failed to make a concrete ask of lawmakers, according to Democrats in the room. After he left, a visibly frustrated Pelosi told the group she would articulate what Biden had been trying to say, one lawmaker said.
“It was the first time I remember people pretty jarred by what they had seen,” recalled Rep. Dean Phillips (D., Minn.), who would go on to mount an unsuccessful primary challenge against the president.
That was October 2021. That month was the last time Biden met with the House Democratic caucus on the Hill regarding legislation.
Unfortunately for the world, instead of resigning the presidency Mr. Biden continued in office and even continued to attempt unscripted public communication. It’s tantalizing to imagine how the planet might have been a more peaceful place if Mr. Biden or whoever makes his decisions had done the right thing.
Three months after that last confused legislative meeting with the House Democratic caucus, with Vladimir Putin’s Russia threatening the invasion of Ukraine, Mr. Biden took questions from reporters. Here’s an excerpt from the White House transcript of the President’s Jan. 19, 2022, press conference in the East Room:
Q Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you. Your top foreign policy advisors have warned that Russia is now ready to attack Ukraine. But there’s still little unity among European allies about what a package of sanctions against Moscow would look like. If the U.S. and NATO aren’t willing to put troops on the line to defend Ukraine and American allies can’t agree on a sanctions package, hasn’t the U.S. and the West lost nearly all of its leverage over Vladimir Putin?
And given how ineffective sanctions have been in deterring Putin in the past, why should the threat of new sanctions give him pause?
THE PRESIDENT: Well, because he’s never seen sanctions like the ones I promised will be imposed if he moves, number one.
Number two, we’re in a situation where Vladimir Putin is about to — we’ve had very frank discussions, Vladimir Putin and I. And the idea that NATO is not going to be united, I don’t buy. I’ve spoken to every major NATO leader. We’ve had the NATO-Russian summit. We’ve had other — the OSCE has met, et cetera.
And so, I think what you’re going to see is that Russia will be held accountable if it invades. And it depends on what it does. It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and then we end up having a fight about what to do and not do, et cetera.
But if they actually do what they’re capable of doing with the forces amassed on the border, it is going to be a disaster for Russia if they further ingra- — invade Ukraine, and that our allies and partners are ready to impose severe costs and significant harm on Russia and the Russian economy.
And, you know, we’re going to fortify our NATO Allies, I told him, on the eastern flank — if, in fact, he does invade. We’re going to — I’ve already shipped over $600 million worth of sophisticated equipment, defensive equipment to the Ukrainians.
The cost of going into Ukraine, in terms of physical loss of life, for the Russians, they’ll — they’ll be able to prevail over time, but it’s going to be heavy, it’s going to be real, and it’s going to be consequential.
Babbling for just six short and sloppy paragraphs, Mr. Biden conceded that Putin might get away with a “minor incursion” as America’s NATO allies argued over how to respond, then he talked about sending $600 million of equipment to Ukraine as if that level of commitment would scare Putin. Then Mr. Biden predicted Russia would win a war with Ukraine. Didn’t any White House aides think to write, “DETERRENCE” on a note card?
Not surprisingly, Putin was undeterred and commenced the invasion a month later. Would the people of Ukraine have been spared the horror of the past three years if a competent U.S. president had offered a simple and credible warning?
Speaking of 2022, the other strange and significant Washington phenomenon that year was the partial official recognition of the massive inflationary blunders of the Biden era. But while Federal Reserve officials finally realized the damage they’d done and made a hard pivot toward tighter policy with a rapid series of interest-rate hikes, the White House made no such pivot. Mr. Biden or whoever writes his material has to this day continued to demand more of the profligate spending that fueled consumer backlash and destroyed his presidency. Would not a fully competent chief executive have acknowledged the obvious and charted a new course?
Let’s hope America can get through the next month without any more policy disasters.
Let’s also take inspiration from the leadership example that shone on this day in 1783. Thomas Fleming wrote in the Journal in 2007 about Washington’s appearance before the Congress, which was then meeting in Annapolis, Md.:
Washington… drew from his coat a parchment copy of his appointment as commander in chief. “Having now finished the work assigned me, I retire from the great theater of action and bidding farewell to this august body under whom I have long acted, I here offer my commission and take leave of all the employments of public life.”…
This was—is—the most important moment in American history.
The man who could have dispersed this feckless Congress and obtained for himself and his soldiers rewards worthy of their courage was renouncing absolute power. By this visible, incontrovertible act, Washington did more to affirm America’s government of the people than a thousand declarations by legislatures and treatises by philosophers.
Thomas Jefferson, author of the greatest of these declarations, witnessed this drama as a delegate from Virginia. Intuitively, he understood its historic dimension. “The moderation… . of a single character,” he later wrote, “probably prevented this revolution from being closed, as most others have been, by a subversion of that liberty it was intended to establish.”

Note the part about "No visitor logs"
"Where was Biden when the 1500 commutations and numerous pardons were "signed"? We know he didn't physically sign all of them himself so they were signed with the "auto-pen" (but where and when)?
"Did Biden actually see, read, touch, review, or otherwise have full knowledge of what was signed and who "used" that device to on his behalf and was that "signing" conducted in his presence? Are we to believe he had full knowledge and understanding of what he supposedly signed?
"Now, expand that questioning to include other important documents he supposedly signed: Were they signed while he was on one of his 575 days of vacation and, if so, how? In addition to this line of questioning, add this: Were these documents signed in his absence, or did he have the "auto-pen" and secretarial assistance with him or was some person or groups of persons allowed access to the "auto-pen" in his absence and permitted to run amok with it? Since he is obviously non-compos mentis, are the documents he signed valid?"

Failed with health care
Failed with 2 presidential bids
Made a Senator by having rich powerful NY people hand her the seat
Made Sec of State with zero wins or accomplishments other then seeing the world with Chelsea on our dime
Was one of the most despised figures in American politics of the past 35 yrs
lied about Whitewater and obstructed justice
Lied about the email
obstructed justice in that investigation
led a Foundation that was obviously from day one a money laundering scam for her and her campaign and her mob to get rich.

Back in my food biz days we had a saying we’d apply to poorly run restaurants: “the fish stinks from the head down,” which was an oblique way food service operational issues began with a bad boss, with his or her failures then filtering down through the operation. As best I can tell this applies to presidencies, too, with Biden and his cadre of mutants, meatheads, & misfits serving as a case in point. Indeed, the “Progressive” habit of declaring abject failures to be glorious accomplishments has to initiate somewhere & these days it ain’t difficult to ID the head and the stench of failure that then percolates downward and throughout all he putatively leads, to wit:

Departing President Joe Biden offered a farewell brag this week to his State Department about how his tenure had improved America's stature abroad. In his now accustomed weird mix of whispering and fiery shouting, Biden apparently felt he had to lie or mislead about almost every one of his "achievements."
Yet to the extent that anything improved abroad on his watch — the weakening of Iran or the near destruction of Hamas and Hezbollah — it was due despite, not because of, Biden.
Biden, bowing to election year political pressure, did all he could to restrain and block Israeli retaliations to the October 7 massacres. Only after he was repeatedly proven wrong does he now shamelessly take credit for what Israel ironically achieved by ignoring his own threats directed at Israel.
Biden is correct only that Iran is "weaker than it's been in decades." But Tehran was aided, not hurt, by Biden's nonstop efforts to lift sanctions, to allow Iran to make billions in oil revenues, to pay the theocracy billions of dollars in hostage ransom, and to beg the mullahs to reenter the ill-starred Iran deal. Everything Biden did makes it much harder for Israel to survive.
So, Iran is now weakened only because Israel ignored Biden's nonstop ankle-biting and finger-shaking not to retaliate to Iranian aggression. Instead, the Netanyahu government systematically destroyed Iranian air defenses after killing most of Iran's foreign terrorist operatives.
Biden referenced the end of the Assad regime in Syria, but it imploded not due to any effort by Biden. It was overwhelmed instead only after the Israeli decimation of Hezbollah and humiliation of Iran — coupled with the election victory of Donald Trump — that encouraged Assad's enemies to attack a now isolated and weakened regime.
Biden is also taking credit for rumors that Hamas might release its hostages, who have been held in a subterranean labyrinth since October 7.
But why, with less than a week left in his tenure, did Biden believe Hamas might begin releasing the hostages when even his own Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, has criticized the administration for spending 16 months pressuring Israel, which only emboldened Hamas's stonewalling?
Much more likely, the election of Trump and his threat to unleash terrible retribution on Hamas (and implicitly on Iran) had prompted the terrorists' tardy willingness to negotiate a release.
Of the horrific scramble from Afghanistan — the greatest humiliation of the U.S. military in a half-century that cost the lives of 13 Marines — Biden boasted: "(I am) the first president in decades who's not leaving a war in Afghanistan to his successor."
Think of his warped logic: Biden does not leave a war to his successor only because he fled in humiliation and lost it.
Biden also took credit for saving Ukraine from Russia. But he conveniently omitted why Russia invaded in the first place.
Had Biden not destroyed American deterrence by fleeing Kabul and leaving behind billions of dollars in abandoned U.S. military equipment, had he not claimed, prior to the Russian invasion, that his reaction to Russian President Vladimir Putin's likely aggression would hinge on whether it was "a minor incursion," then the Russians might never have invaded at all.
Putin grabbed Crimea and the Donbass in 2014 during the Obama-Biden administration. He later sought to swallow the entire country with an attack on Kiev in 2022 on Biden's watch.
However, Putin stayed within his borders only during one of the last four administrations — Trump's.
Biden crowed that he accomplished all these misadventures without the use of force — "We have not gone to war to make these things happen."
But Biden did more than any other recent president to weaken the U.S. military. Under his tenure, the Pentagon suffered a real reduction in its budget. And it never quite recovered from the Afghanistan debacle.
Annually, the military now comes up 40,000 recruits short due to Biden's draconian vaccination requirements, its new woke mandates, and its constant false accusations of "white rage" and "white privilege" in the ranks — libels that prompted a Pentagon internal investigation that found no such racism.
China was never more bellicose than during Biden's presidency. It serially threatened Taiwan, used cyber warfare to bully the U.S., brazenly expropriated U.S. military technology, and without worry sent a spy balloon to traverse the U.S. with impunity.
Biden's open border saw more than 10 million illegal entries, among them thousands of Chinese nationals. Meanwhile, Chinese investors were freed to systematically buy up thousands of acres of America's farmland adjacent to sensitive U.S. military bases and installations.
Add it all up, and Biden would have done better to have just kept quiet and departed his failed presidency in shame.

I still don't understand how a Pres can pardon someone who is not charged, tried, or convicted of anything at the time her pardons them.
Can we say he admits they committed crimes in this case? Or why else is he pardoning them?
Can a state DA bring them up on State crimes?
-
Well worth noting is that Congress can question them under oath and now they cannot plead the 5th-- and if they lie, well then that is perjury.

Joe wants to be called him/her and black woman.
Why not?
But to your point Doug, I too would like to know who really used the autopen.
Probably used by many .
False autographs or those of secretaries of dignitaries are worthless. So should autopens for Presidential orders. Can they be challanged on this basis . Too late to examine the documents for fingerprints or DNA?
-
"Can they be challenged on this basis. Too late to examine the documents for fingerprints or DNA?"
- You may have something here!
Most don't matter. Executive orders are easily undone with new executive orders. But some may matter, like an invalid pardon. Or signing legislation, but it wasn't signed. Is that legislation binding?
As previously mentioned, this story may have legs.
So much to investigate. So little time.
