Joe Biden Has A Midterm Surprise In Store For Democrats: A Book Nobody Asked For




Former President Joe Biden announced Tuesday that he will release a new book in September, injecting himself back into the political spotlight like a stubborn case of political herpes that just won’t clear up, smack dab in the midst of the midterm election cycle as it enters its final stretch.

The announcement came during an unusual and at times awkward appearance at a New York event promoting former first lady Jill Biden’s memoir, “A View from the East Wing.” 

As Jill Biden wrapped up a discussion with moderator Caryn Elaine Johnson aka: Whoopi Goldberg, the former president unexpectedly left his seat in the audience and approached the stage, prompting laughter, confusion, and several audience members quietly googling “how to fake your own death.”

“I have a question,” Biden said, interrupting the event.

“Joe has a question? Like you couldn’t ask it later?” Jill Biden responded.

The former president then asked his wife, “Who do you love most in the whole world?”“Whoopi,” she answered jokingly, drawing laughter from the crowd. Biden remained standing as Goldberg attempted to continue the event, prompting Jill Biden to eventually relent.

“I love you most, Joe. Was that it? Was that the answer he wanted?” she said.

The exchange culminated with Biden using the moment to reveal his own upcoming book.“My book, which comes out in September, read it,” Biden told attendees after briefly commandeering the event like a guy who wandered into the wrong nursing home activity room.The announcement places Biden back in the national political conversation at a time when Democrats continue grappling with the fallout from his turbulent final years in office and lingering questions surrounding his decision to seek re-election in 2024 despite concerns about his age and health, concerns that were only slightly more obvious than a neon sign reading “This Man Is Running On Fumes.”

The former president has largely remained out of public view since leaving office, though recent appearances have reignited debate over his health and his administration’s handling of concerns about his fitness for office. Those questions resurfaced Tuesday as clips of Biden’s surprise appearance quickly spread online, mostly accompanied by captions like “He’s still doing this?”

At the same time, Jill Biden’s memoir tour has generated fresh scrutiny of the former president’s decline during the closing months of his presidency. In recent interviews promoting her book, the former first lady has described being frightened by Biden’s disastrous June 2024 debate performance against President Donald Trump, saying she feared at the time that he was suffering a medical emergency.

“I wasn’t horrified, I was frightened,” Jill Biden said of the debate. “I had never, ever seen Joe like that before or since. I don’t know what happened. As I watched it, I said, ‘Oh my God, he’s having a stroke.’ It scared me to death.”

Those comments come more than a year after Biden disclosed that he had been diagnosed with Stage IV prostate cancer that had spread to his bones, a diagnosis that fueled renewed scrutiny over his health and questions about the transparency surrounding his condition while in office, because nothing says “totally fine” like hiding advanced cancer while running the free world.

Details about Biden’s forthcoming book have not yet been released, but sources say it’s tentatively titled I’m Still Here, Dammit: A Hundred Pages of Nonsense and Ice Cream. Its September publication date ensures the former president will reenter the public arena as both parties prepare for a closely watched midterm election season, giving Democrats the gift they never wanted: Joe Biden reminding everyone why they begged him to step aside in the first place.

Secret Service Agent on Jill Biden Detail, Shoots Himself in the Leg



A Secret Service agent was injured Friday morning after negligently discharging his firearm and shooting himself in the leg while escorting former first lady Jill Biden through the Philadelphia International Airport, according to a report by The Daily Wire. 

The agent fired the weapon just after 8:30 a.m. while on a protective assignment. He was transported to a local hospital, where he was listed in stable condition. No one else was injured and the former First Lady, a doctor, was unable to render aid because she isn't that kind of doctor in spite of Joy Behar having suggested that she would make a fantastic Surgeon General at the time her husband was an “Autopen POTUS”.

“The Secret Service’s Office of Professional Responsibility will be reviewing the facts and circumstances of this incident. We are grateful for our law enforcement and public safety partners who provided medical assistance,” the Secret Service said. 


After the shooting, a large police presence was reported in Terminal C of the airport, according to CBS affiliate KYW-TV. A medic unit responded to the scene and then left the area, followed by a Philadelphia police car.

The Secret Service has faced intense scrutiny from the public and from Congress after the July 13, 2024, assassination attempt on President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, which was one of the agency’s most serious security failures in modern history. Many believe that had it not been for D.E.I., a taller agent would have been assigned to protect Trump's upper body. Unfortunately, a rather short woman was one agent with that assignment.

Last year, more scandals hit the Secret Service after a uniformed division officer allegedly fell asleep while on duty at the United Nations General Assembly, and an armed individual bypassed security screening at Trump National Golf Club in Virginia. 

Despite those incidents, the Secret Service has also been praised for recent operations. In September, Secret Service personnel took down a network of electronic devices in New York that had been used to target senior federal officials with telecommunications threats.

Dr, Biden in a signature dress with Joe Biden with his signature look of confusion

In February, agents shot and killed an armed man who attempted to break into Mar-a-Lago with a shotgun.

So it's a 'hit-or-miss' situation, and unfortunately, in this current case, it was a hit right in the leg.

Let's hope he makes a full recovery.

Kamala Harris in the Hot Seat? GOP Rep. Brandon Gill Wants Answers on Biden’s Brain Fog



The political circus just keeps on spinning, and this time, GOP Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) is ready to crank up the heat. During a fiery chat on Fox Business' Mornings With Maria, the House Oversight Committee member didn't mince words, floating the idea of slapping a subpoena on Kamala Harris to dig into what he calls the Biden administration's cognitive cover-up. 

Gill was riffing on testimony from former White House flack Ian Sams, who admitted to barely crossing paths with Joe Biden during his two-plus years in the administration. We're talking two in-person meetings, one virtual sit-down, and a single phone call. 

That's it. For a guy who was supposedly in the inner circle, that's about as connected as a flip phone in a 5G world. This tidbit only fueled Gill’s suspicions about Biden’s mental sharpness, or lack thereof, during his White House clusterfrack.

"These are the people who portrayed themselves as being in the know," Gill said, throwing shade at the administration's spin doctors. "The American people watched Joe Biden on TV. We could see his cognitive decline. We saw his debate performance. We saw his eyes glazing over when reporters asked him questions." Sounds like Gill has been taking notes while watching Biden's greatest hits on the blooper reel.

The Texas congressman didn't stop there. He accused Biden's inner circle of flat-out lying to the public about the president's condition. "They had no clue what they were talking about, and instead lied to the American people," he charged, before taking a swing at the media for playing lapdog instead of watchdog. It’s an "indictment of Left-wing legacy media," he said, and you can almost hear the mic drop from here.

When host Cheryl Casone pressed him on whether the Oversight Committee would go full Law & Order and subpoena Harris, Gill didn't flinch. "I would like to see Kamala Harris subpoenaed," he declared. "I think that she should have been close to Joe Biden more than most people, and I think she's got a lot to answer for as well." 

If Harris thought she could skate through this mess, Gill has other plans.

The plot thickened when Casone brought up the "autopen portion" of the probe.

Oversight Chairman James Comer has been sniffing around, wondering who was really calling the shots while Biden's pen was on autopilot. Was it Hahaharris? Dr. Jill? The White House barista? Gill and his GOP pals want to know.

This investigation still has legs, and Republicans are turning up the volume, zeroing in on Biden's mental fitness and the role his closest allies played in keeping the public in the dark. Subpoenaing Harris would be like tossing a Molotov cocktail into an already polarized D.C., but for Gill, it's a no-brainer. "We need answers," he's essentially saying, and he isn't wrong. The only question is whether this probe will uncover the truth or just give us another season of partisan mudslinging. 

And if you want to Buy Me A Coffee, I wouldn't stop you--it supports my work and I really appreciate it. But no pressure.

Biden's attempt at looking fit didn't work


A report from The New York Times demonstrates how alleged President Joe Biden tried to prove he's still full of energy, despite critics who have functioning eyes and ears and know better.

In the article, reporters talked to people close to the so called President who said he wanted to show off his physical strength and his ability to beat men and women at pushups to counter the talk about his age.

"But at times, people familiar with his thinking recalled, Mr. Biden’s pride — along with an old-school view that displaying physical vitality was the antidote to age concerns — could get in the way," the report said on Friday.

The former newspaper pointed out that Biden's longtime strategist, Mike Donlon, told him in 2022, "Your biggest issue is the perception of age." Biden "acknowledged the concerns," but the "warnings only ignited his defiant, competitive streak," according to the tabloid. This attitude might have pushed him to run for office again in 2023, even after he had hinted he wouldn't.

"Finally elected on his third try, Mr. Biden suggested that he would be a transition president," the article noted. "But his pride, plus a string of legislative accomplishments and a strong showing in the 2022 midterms, drove him to seek re-election and set out on a quixotic mission to prove his vitality."

Yes, Old Joe was jousting at the windmills of his mind thinking he had the ability to run a country when he couldn't run a lemonade stand.


His pride also led him to demonstrate his physical capabilities. The report explained, "Mr. Biden, who exercised on a stationary bike most days, made decisions that he thought would showcase vigor. But, at times, they had the unintended effect of showcasing his advancing years."

To make matters worse, his wife, Doctor Jill, allowed him to run again when it was obvious to the world that he didn't have 'the right stuff'. In fact, Joe never did have the right stuff and was put in the position to run for President the first time because Obama made him his VP.

The article listed several incidents, including when Biden "refused to wear an orthopedic boot" after breaking his foot playing with his dog before his inauguration.

"He did not want to be seen as weak — a 78-year-old president with his hand on the Bible and a large, telltale contraption on his foot. He wore his leather brogues instead."

According to anonymous sources, who requested anonymity fearing serious reprisals for spilling the beans, the fracture "did not heal" properly because of this, leading to his "shuffling gait" throughout his presidency, and an addled mind that continues to get increasingly more addled.

The report discussed his bike riding clusterfrack in which he tried to appear fit rather than frail: 

"Mr. Biden still wanted to prove that he was physically agile," the report read. "He enjoyed biking at his home near Rehoboth Beach, DE, but during the summer of 2022, when he stopped to talk with a group of onlookers and reporters, his feet got caught in the toe cages on the pedals." He went tush-over-teakettle and the conservative media had a field day with it when he tumbled to the ground. It went so viral that T-shirts were made of the event.


Then came what the report labeled the "worst mishap," when "Mr. Biden tripped over a sandbag at the Air Force Academy commencement."

"It took five seconds for Secret Service agents to help the president to his feet, an eternity when seen on television."


Not to mention how, when approaching microphones, he takes a 3-step 'jog' that simply looks silly.

Joe should have never run for President in the first place but his wife selfishly needed to be in the limelight and didn't care how it made Biden look. 

In this writer's opinion, Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. was the worst President this country has ever had the misfortune of electing. Tomorrow cannot come soon enough.

Alleged POTUS confuses military strike with labor strike: supports collective bargaining in Yemen



Remember when they wanted to "25th Amendment" former President Donald Trump? That was the left's attempt at using lawfare to get what they wanted. But here we have so called President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., whose mental status is on par with a carrot.

"Dementia Joe" seemed confused as he compared a military strike with a labor dispute when mumbling to reporters this past weekend. He was responding to a question about Israeli airstrikes in Yemen by replying that he would support "collective bargaining."

Imagine if the reporters asked him whether he thought that Israel's strike on Houthi targets were lucky; he might reply how cigarettes are bad for you. [Lucky Strike makes fine tobacco.]

The Veggie-in-Chief was exiting his vehicle when reporters shouted out questions, confusing questions, one after another, some simultaneous to another question being asked. 

He answered a few questions related to the Jewish State and the escalating military actions targeting Iran-backed Hezbollah, a group of terrorists whose leaders are either dead or singing soprano after Israel sold them some pagers and radios fully loaded to go. When one reporter asked a follow up question about the "strikes in Yemen," Biden's answer clearly showed that he believed the issue was about labor disputes.

REPORTER: "Any comment on the strikes in Yemen, Mr. President!?"

VEGGIE IN CHIEF: "I've spoken to both sides. They gotta settle the strike. I'm supporting the collective bargaining effort. I think they'll settle the strike."

“Mr. President, will you deploy more U.S. troops to the Middle East?” one reporter shouted, and Biden said, “No,” reading off a note on his palm.

First lady and doctor extraordinaire, Jill Biden, also exited the vehicle and quickly walked away, turning her back on the press while Joe walked toward reporters.

She probably should have whisked him away.

Whatever happened to the 25th Amendment? President un-elect Jill and her cabinet meeting


It has been eleven months, nearly a year, since our alleged President Joseph Biden held a cabinet meeting. Everyone, including their friends and family know that Biden's brain is addled, his speech tired and mush-mouthed, and his thought processes in general, as bad as those of his Vice President. He has completely abdicated his responsibilities as POTUS and we all witnessed this on Friday when he finally held a meeting of his cabinet.

The meeting began with some almost incomprehensible mutterings of a tired, old man who introduced his wife Jill. 

Whatever happened to the 25th Amendment?

After the introduction, Jill did all the talking as she donned eyeglasses to convince us she is brilliant, as she briefly spoke about the WhiteHouse Women's Health initiative, a speech that should have come from her husband, our so called President. To read what she said, and if you don't have anything else to do, you can read her full comments here.

People on X were not shy to comment as they wondered just what the heck was going on. Jill Biden is not the President, was not elected, and like Kamala Harris, did not receive a single vote for this high office.

Jordan Schachtel tweeted this:
This is so bizarre on so many levels. pic.twitter.com/Ote4CQpk96— Jordan Schachtel @ dossier.today (@JordanSchachtel) September 20, 2024

During Doctor Jill Biden's speech, everyone but Joe clapped like trained seals. This is probably Jill Biden's last hurrah as Joe fades out into the ether. 

A question on everyone's mind, [at least those willing to ask a question challenging the status quo] is why her signature was embossed on honorary legislation folders:
Biden's honorary legislation folders have Jill's emblazoned signature

When did we elect her President? https://t.co/5sMLma9b3c pic.twitter.com/0Tn9uPCeqL— Comfortably Smug (@ComfortablySmug) September 20, 2024

According to RealClear Politics' White House reporter Philip Melanchthon Wegmann:
A senior Hill aide tells me that when lawmakers are given a signed copy of their bill, the folder containing has both President Biden and First Lady Biden’s signatures emblazoned on the cover. https://t.co/NfUjUUAC00— Philip Melanchthon Wegmann (@PhilipWegmann) September 20, 2024
Jill Biden gets to live in the White House not because of anything other than who she is married to, nothing else. Why is her name on legislative folders? She has no role in the process so why is her name under the Presidential Seal?

And when the heck did this begin?

People are elected to office in a democracy. Who does she think she is? Evita?

Doctor Jill Biden praises anti-Christian depiction of "Last Supper" using LGBTQ people


PINO Joseph Biden's caregiver, Doctor Jill Biden, gushed over the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics in which men who claim to believe they're women, and other characters, mocked DaVinci's "Last Supper," thereby mocking Christianity. And while both Bidens claim to be religious Catholics, they believe in killing babies in the womb right up until birth.

Doctor Biden [aka DINO] led the U.S. delegation to the Olympics and said the opening ceremony was "spectacular." She and the crowd didn't let the rain dampen their spirits even as the mascara and blush ran down the faces of the gay guys dressed as women.

"So, last night, it was just spectacular," Doctor Biden said in a statement. "The rain did not dampen our spirits…. Every step of the way, I was thinking to myself, oh my god, oh my god. How are we going to top this?"

"So, ok. Paris has the Eiffel Tower, but we have Hollywood and the magic of Hollywood that makes all dreams come true. I think we’re going to be ok.… It’s a city where new generations of dreamers shape our culture," she added.

"At the end of the 2028 Games, Olympians and fans will see themselves reflected in Los Angeles," Doctor Biden said.


Doctor Biden remarked that the U.S. would have to work very hard to top Paris' opening ceremony when the games are held in Los Angeles in 2028. Her words suggest that in order to top Paris' opening ceremony, they might need to have the gay guys parade naked down the streets as is often the case with their Pride Parades.




The decadence is palatable.

6 Reasons why Joe should stay in the race

"I hope that wasn't what I think it was"

Now that President Joe Biden exposed himself as barely sentient in a national television debate with former President Donald Trump, and that it's obvious he would likely lose in the presidential election, the liars in the media and the Democratic Party are throwing him under the Prius and pretending they didn't know until now that his dementia reached critical mass some time ago. The GOP has been saying this for quite some time.

But all of the problems of the left can be assuaged if Joe refuses to step down. He doesn't seem to want to spend his twilight years rocking on his porch thinking about all the hair he sniffed, all the kids he kissed, and all the money he made overseas. 

Here are some of the reasons Joe Biden needs to stay in the race against Trump:

1. It returns credibility to the media if somehow he wins. 

Let's face it, the media is now about as credible as a scorpion riding a frog's back to cross a pond when it promises not to sting him. Imagine if Joe Scarborough can once again show his face to the scores of people who watch him when Joe is reelected. You can almost hear him saying, "See, I told you so."

2. It gives the elderly and infirm hope for their own futures.  

If an 81-year-old incontinent guy with the neural deficit of a yo-yo string can be the President of the most powerful nation on Earth, even Gabe or Molly can one day call Bingo at the center. 

3. Having Joe as POTUS will confuse our enemies.

We know that they know that Joe knows nothing, so why would an entire nation reelect him? Perhaps we know something Vladimir doesn't know, Xi heard rumors about, and Kim isn't sure.

4. Campaign Joe makes Doctor Jill proud and prominent.

No wife wants to be invisible. Doctor Jill knows with Joe running that she'll be up front and personal with the public. She will have the power to guide her ice cream destroyer in all her decisions that come from his teleprompter. What more could a wife ask for but to run an entire country--perhaps with the help of another former President whose name rhymes with Broback Brobumba.

5. Free ice cream.

Do I need to elaborate?

6. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, if Joe gets the win it will keep his crack and sex addicted son Hunter out of prison where he can continue to run the country with Doctor Jill.

REPORT: Jill Biden crazy-upset at those who want Joe to step aside



Joe Biden's debate performance was obviously a disaster that has finally awakened the left and exposed their media outlets over their coverup of the President's diminished mental status. While Joe was never going to be getting an invite to a Mensa meeting, he never presented as poorly as he does now. He is like a deer in the headlights and needs the help of others, particularly that of Jill Biden, to even find his way offstage after babbling and mumbling incoherently. The debate last Thursday with former President Donald Trump was Joe's showcase of dementia.

And since the debate, Joe's attempts at redemption has been a clusterfrack as witnessed by his ABC interview with George Stuffaballotbox. [I stole that from a Daily Wire responder.] The response from the left was brutal, and even host Jon Karl of ABC wasn't able to assuage his viewers of their fear that Joe Biden has the cognitive capacity of gum.

First lady Doctor Jill Biden is furious with those on the left who are trying to get Joe to quit his reelection campaign after the debate in which he looked like a nursing home resident on temporary release.



ABC News host Martha Raddatz said after the network's interview with Biden on Friday that anonymous sources said that Joe's “very tight inner circle” is pushing him to stay in the race and that he will win as long as he keeps going.

“This of course includes his wife Jill who they said is lashing out at those who want him to get out of the race,” she added.

Meanwhile, someone is running the White House and we aren't sure who it is. We know that Hunter Biden has been showing up at meetings, possibly un-stoned, and might be the person in charge.

Anyway, the Biden crime family is now reportedly moving to consolidate power within Joe's campaign and administration as they look to box out those who are leaking to the media and trying to sabotage the president in the days leading up to the party’s convention.

Let's face it, both Jill and Hunter have a lot to lose if Joe doesn't get a second term. 

For Jill it's power, and for Hunter it could be his freedom as he has been convicted of falsification on a federal document.

Biden supposedly humiliated by his debate debacle according to reports


Our alleged President Biden was reportedly humiliated by his debate performance on Thursday, meaning that he possibly still has enough brain activity to have a modicum of self-awareness. Of course, it could also be that the media is setting the stage for him to bow out of the election before November.

The report says that Biden was "devoid of confidence" by someone allegedly familiar with Biden's mood, telling NBC News, "[I]t's a mess."

The outlet reported that several prominent Democrats expressed concern in private over Biden's chances of beating Donald Trump in November following his debate performance. However, they remain steadfast in their support for Biden in public due to their confidence in lying to the public and having them believe those lies and not caring enough for the country to stop our cognitively impaired POTUS to run.

"The only person who has ultimate influence with him is the first lady," another person told NBC News. "If she decides there should be a change of course, there will be a change of course."

Biden and his family are reportedly set to informally discuss the future of his campaign at Camp David on Sunday, which can only mean that he will bow out and let a functioning individual take his place. Perhaps Doctor Jill has been ridiculed enough to know that she better let Joe get his much needed rest and an ice cream cone [he likes chocolate chip].


"Any discussion about the campaign is expected to be informal or an afterthought," the person close to the Biden family told NBC. "No one is sitting down for a formal or determinative discussion."

Biden addressed his debate debacle at a North Carolina rally on Friday.

"I know I'm not a young man. I don't walk as easy as I used to. I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debate as well as I used to, but I know what I do know — I know how to tell the truth!" Biden told a crowd of supporters who held back their laughter. 

Biden simply cannot tell the truth about most anything. He claimed at the Thursday debate that no American military person died on his watch. I know of at least 13 who did, and I know of others who gave their life for their country, but old Joe couldn't or wouldn't recognize them.

"I can do this job, because, quite frankly, the stakes are too high," Biden mush-mouthed during his speech. "Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation."

Trump already has a 4-year track record as President and Democracy was just fine. In fact, the Biden administration has been the most corrosive to democracy: having Trump arrested on trumped-up charges to eliminate him from the presidential race; allowing illegal aliens into the country; the lack of reasonable law enforcement; taking taxpayer money and trying to forgive student loans, are just a few examples of where Biden peed on democracy.


He also told the crowd that he wouldn't be running for re-election if he didn't think he could do the job, which may be true in his addled brain. He not only cannot do the job, he can't even find his way off stage and sees people we don't see.

The next debate, hosted by ABC News, is scheduled for Sept. 10, but my bet is that it will not happen, but if it does, it will not include Biden.

Remember all the lies you heard from Democrats like Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, IL Gov. J.B. Pritzker. MN Gov. Tim Walz, his campaign co-chair, Mitch Landrieu, NY Rep. Dan Goldman, and others, about how sharp Biden's is, especially in private where it matters less than it does to the American people.

We need to be concerned now as to how our enemies see us. If they believe Trump will be our next President, and I hope he will be, they will want to make a move against us before he's sworn in.

Biden lands in Charlotte and wonders "Where am I?"

"Slidin' Biden"

President Biden did the right thing and flew to Charlotte, NC on Thursday to meet with the police officers who were killed in the recent shootout. His handlers finally got something right, except for the optics, which they didn't anticipate.

Biden was able to negotiate the short stairs without tumbling down and breaking a hip or worse. The Secret Service followed behind him, fingers crossed.

The Mayor of Charlotte was there to meet him when this happened:

Biden looked like a deer in the headlights, lost and confused, unable to let go of Mayor Vi Lyles' hand. We cannot read his mind from the video, but he obviously looks confused, almost as if he isn't the President of the United States and has access to the nuclear code. If you ask me, that code should be "Don't" because he at least has that memorized.

Biden really looks frighteningly frail and it's clear that his physical and mental deterioration is a given fact that cannot be hidden. His presidency is looking more like "Weekend at Bernie's" than that of the leader of the most powerful nation on earth.

It would be surprising if he makes it to the election, which may explain his polls circling the bowl. 

Doctor Jill Biden should be indicted for elder abuse.

Babbling Biden Blasts Teleprompter Guy: needs a rewind of words



When President Joe Biden speaks, everybody listens . . . and waits for the next gaffe. It usually doesn't take very long and the left doesn't seem to care as they pretend to not notice.

Thursday was Greek Independence Day and Biden hosting a reception in the East Room of the White House. It isn't clear why this Greek celebration should get White House recognition, but it gives something for the President to do without having to make real decisions. After all, the only thing he needed to do was flash his signature denture smile and read from the teleprompter a speech the person actually running the country wrote.

Not surprisingly, Biden made himself the topic of discussion, like he always does. He was raised in the Jewish community where he went to synagogue, a Puerto Rican community, and yes, the Black community where he grew up in a Black church. He appropriates cultures like Hunter appropriates drugs and prostitutes.
BIDEN: "The only reason I'm able to stand here is because of the Greek community. That's not hyperbole!" pic.twitter.com/rOrpqZhCcl— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) April 4, 2024
He's right--it isn't hyperbole--it bull crap. It isn't as if the Greek vote pulled him over the line in the 2020 election. It's just Biden's way of pandering to every group he can find, which is difficult for a geriatric brain addled man who needs help finding his way off stage.

While he mumbled to the guests, he began talking to his teleprompter guy after he got lost in the jumbled jasmine of the words in front of him. He ordered his snuffy to move the words back because somehow he experienced a brain fart and needed to start part of his pandering all over.

I don't know what it would take for the Democratic Party to conclude that they need to help the GOP remove him from office. But they know that he isn't the one running the country; it's probably someone in a bunny suit or Obama not in his bunny suit.
BIDEN (confused — again): "...in the Biden-Obama, the O'Biden..." pic.twitter.com/KWqRty6knu— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) April 4, 2024
Biden went on to replay his lie that he traveled "17,000 miles" with Xi Jinping and stood with him on the Tibetan plateau. In truth, it was more likely he and Doctor Jill went to a Chinese takeout before he was elected president, lost their way and the man behind the counter went outside with them and pointed down the block to where they needed to go.


BIDEN: "I was once asked by Xi Jinping, and I traveled 17,000 miles with him — I was out at the Tibetan plateau..."

RedState [and others] debunked that claim multiple times. It simply didn't happen, but that hasn't stopped the houseplant from telling the story over and over. He's told it so many times that even Democratic Party operative, The Washington Post couldn't ignore it any longer and offered a correction.

A White House official conceded that Biden’s line of “traveling with” Xi is not accurate. “This was a reference to the total travel back and forth — both internally in the U.S. and China, and as well as internationally — for meetings they held together,” he said. “Some travel was in parallel, some was separately to joint destinations.”

But there are no consequences to Biden's lies to the public. He's just a homey old man with a great set of dentures that Nancy Pelosi would be proud of, and what's the big deal with a little white lie once in a paragraph?


Biden demands "immediate ceasefire" by Israel and blames them for hostages not being freed

Mouth breathing Commander in Chief looking for the dead bird

Like the slime balls who blame women in short skirts for being raped, our alleged President Joe Biden is alluding to the notion that it's Israel's fault the hostages are not being released.

In a call to Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Biden demanded Israel quit fighting Hamas, their neighbors who have called for their genocide. Biden demands Israel allow Hamas to walk away from what they did to over 1,300 Israelis on October 7, 2023. Who the hell is he or anyone outside of Israel to make such demands?

Biden threatened to withdraw U.S. support of their ally, Israel, if they didn't do as he [actually it probably was his handler] said.

The brain addled President attacked Israel for the situation in Gaza, a situation totally due to the barbarism of Hamas and their use of civilians and their spaces from which they launch their rocket attacks at Israel. He called Israel's response to Hamas attacks with the help of Gazans "unacceptable," in spite of Israel allowing aid to flow into Gaza, only to have Hamas steal it. Of course Israel must monitor the aid in order to prevent weapons from being smuggled into Hamas' bloody hands.

“[Biden] made clear the need for Israel to announce and implement a series of specific, concrete, and measurable steps to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers,” the White House said, without demanding Hamas do the same. “He made clear that U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps.”

“He underscored that an immediate ceasefire is essential to stabilize and improve the humanitarian situation and protect innocent civilians, and he urged the Prime Minister to empower his negotiators to conclude a deal without delay to bring the hostages home,” the statement continued.

No similar demands were made of the terrorist group because Biden believes it would hurt him with the Muslim votes in Michigan and Minnesota, states with large Muslim populations who tend to support all things anti-Israel.

White House National Security Communications Adviser the repugnant John Kirby confirmed at the White House press briefing shortly after the readout was published that Biden actually threatened Israel if it did not meet his demands.

“If there’s no changes to their policy and their approaches, then there’s going to have to be changes to ours,” Kirby said.

Biden’s continued shift away from supporting Israel comes as he trails former President Donald Trump in the polls, including in swing states where far-Left Democrats and Muslim voters disprove of his support for Israel.

The shift also comes after The New York Times reported this week that first lady Doctor Jill Biden, reportedly demanded that Biden stop Israel’s airstrikes against Hamas targets inside Gaza.

“Stop it, stop it now, Joe,” Doctor Jill Biden reportedly said.

The doctor's remarks come after several aid workers were killed by accident in an Israeli airstrike this week, for which Israel apologized and is investigating. 

It's amazing how the Biden administration has the audacity to make such demands of Israel considering our own history in wars, as seen in Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Dresden for example where we killed innocent civilians on purpose. 

And then there was the U.S. drone strike in Afghanistan that accidentally killed 10 Afghan nationals, including seven children, because accidents happen in war.

“Unfortunately, in the past day there was a tragic event in which our forces unintentionally harmed non-combatants in the Gaza Strip,” Netanyahu said in a statement. “This happens in war. We are conducting a thorough inquiry and are in contact with the governments. We will do everything to prevent a recurrence.”

Biden refused to take any responsibility for the drone strike or the loss of life in the Afghanistan withdrawal. But he refuses to take any blame for anything for which he is to blame.

Biden vows to take Ben Hur "behind the barn" after Hur hurled truth bombs about him

Finger-sucking good

Alleged President Joe Biden was livid after learning that Special Counsel investigator Robert Hur reported that the president's memory was as reliable as a Hamas reported death toll. 

But when it was mentioned that Biden could not recall when his son, Beau, died, or when he was Vice President, Joe's wife, Doctor Jill Biden stepped in to defend him. She offered an explanation on Saturday for why Joe forgot when Beau died and said that Hur only wanted to score "political points," which makes no sense. 

She said that the grief of losing a son is not measured "in years." 

"We should give everyone grace, and I can’t imagine someone would try to use our son’s death to score political points," the elder abuser wife wrote in the email.

"If you’ve experienced a loss like that, you know that you don’t measure it in years -- you measure it in grief," she added. "Believe me, like anyone who has lost a child, Beau and his death never leave him."

Actually, when someone you love dies, you tend to remember when it was because of the deep impression it makes on your life. 

When Joe heard about the report Hur made, he went ballistic and mumbled at a press conference last week when reporters asked him about the Special Counsel report.

"Who the hell does this Ben Hur guy think he is?" Joe began. "I'll take him out behind the barn and beat his ass," the President of the United States mumbled. "And I'll do the same with that Mexican guy, Al Sissy."

He ended the presser by shaking hands with the jasmine of his mind.

BREAKING:Biden will launch 2024 re-election campaign--report

"Let me be clear, bazibatiman plamitom cosblat"


According to the NY Post, our so-called President Joe Biden, is probably going to announce the launch of his presidential re-election campaign next week, according to multiple reports. If true, Biden will be the oldest and most decrepit person to run for that office, and if he wins, would be the least competent to be in that position. But not to worry, he really isn't running the country anyway.

The 80-year-old geriatric and his team are finalizing plans to release a video announcement on April 25 — the four-year anniversary of the start of his successful 2020 campaign, the Washington Post reports. The GOP can hardly wait to see the number of edits the video will produce as it's obvious Biden can't string two sentences together without a gaffe.

Due to Biden's mental decline, the Post reported that those who know of his plans, the campaign kick-off could be delayed even further.

Do the math: as the oldest president in US history, if he actually gets re-elected, he would be 86 when he leaves, if he doesn't leave in a box first. But he has been saying many times that he intends to run for re-election, and his eminent wife, Doctor Jill Biden, said in February, that he aging husband would seek a second term [or face her wrath].

Doctor Jill Biden reportedly began preparations for Joe's run, with or without his knowledge, in September of last year, along with White House advisers Anita Dunn, Mike Donilon and Jen O’Malley Dillon. It apparently came as a pleasant surprise to Joe who flashed his signature smile and waved at people in the jasmine of his mind.

The timing of when to announce Biden’s 2024 run has reportedly been a source of debate among his inner circle of Chinese oligarchs. 

Others, including advisers and close allies told Axios earlier this month that they didn’t expect the president to formally announce his candidacy before this summer, with some members of his team reportedly pushing to hold off until sometime after the start of the third political fundraising quarter on July 1, which, coincidentally, is also Canada Day.

Late last year, it was suggested that Biden would and should announce soon after the start of 2023 so as to give the Democrats time to come up with another crisis that would force him to stay out of the public's scrutiny. Going to war with a weak country was a possible consideration.

The second political fundraising quarter ends June 30, giving Biden just over two months to reap post-announcement donations if his campaign launches next week. 

A re-election bid by Biden has the potential to set up a 2020 rematch with former President Donald Trump, who announced his third consecutive White House bid on Nov. 15 and has apparently been slowly moving over to the left. 

In an interview with Tucker Carlson of Fox News, Trump said, "[I] used to get along great with Gavin Newsom." 

Tucker was obviously surprised and asked, "Wait, you got along with Gavin Newsom?"

Trump: "He was always very nice to me. He said the greatest things."

Tucker: "About you?"
Trump: "About me." pic.twitter.com/qO6ebk307V

I know I might sound like a RINO but there's more about Trump that's disturbing. For example, he endorses Stacy Abrams over Brian Kemp:

"Of course, having her [Stacey Abrams] might be better than having your existing governor [Brian Kemp]."pic.twitter.com/XLSd9ogyM8

Trump even took the Bud Light side because it went against Ron DeSantis, and the former president said that he is committed to "no federal role" on the abortion issue:
Donald Trump just committed to "no federal role" on the issue of abortion.

In other words, he's pro-choice now.https://t.co/ogefjF5hxK
— Jon Schweppe (@JonSchweppe) April 20, 2023
Now let me be very clear; if it came down to Trump and any Democrat, Trump gets my vote. But don't believe that he's a true conservative because facts matter. But pro-lifers have always supported Trump and are probably going to feel abandoned. While they will likely not vote for a Democrat, they are likely to be adamant about voting at all, which might mean that we will have another four years of a brain addled POTUS.

Whatever happens, things are going to get interesting over the next several months. We have Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an anti-vaxxer and Marianne Williamson, a flaky self-help guru running on the left, and Trump running against Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswami running on the right, with Ron DeSantis not yet declaring his candidacy. 

Buckle up.

It's Women's History Month and Kamala Hahaharris's gibberish makes all other women look brilliant



Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris speaks like she's either drunk, stoned, or brain injured. Of course she could be brain injured and also drunk and/or stoned. While she doesn't mumble like her mush-mouth boss, her word salads make as much sense as his usually does.

Her latest oration came at a Women's History Month commemoration Wednesday. [Fun Fact: the word 'history' comes from the combining 'his' with 'story.']

Harris, along with PINO Joe Biden, First Doctor Jill Biden, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, offered up their combined genius at the White House for the occasion. They spoke about women of the past and the Biden administration's goals for American women of today, such as replacing male cinema heroes with women, and beautiful Miss America contestants with men dressed as women with a diagnosis that explains their delusions.

During one part of her address, Harris seemed to get stuck on repeating women and history, while falling back on one of her word salad standbys about being "unburdened by what has been."

"So, during Women’s History Month, we celebrate and we honor the women who made history throughout history, who saw what could be unburdened by what had been," Harris blathered.

She continued blathering, "We see the suffragists, the riveters, the marchers, the mothers and sisters and aunts and grandmothers and daughters, all the giants upon whose broad shoulders we stand."

Good old Rosie the Riveter keeping America armed and ready. [Google her.]

Harris’ rhetoric about "women who made history throughout history" was hailed as yet another example of her verbal gaffes or "word salads" delivered in public, and the redundancy of her redundancy.

It's rumored that Kamala Harris went to the School of Redundancy School.

Devout Catholic/Presbyterian/Doctor/First Lady wears Rosary while promoting abortions to Kenyans



Our "devout Catholic in Chief" Joseph Robinette Biden, has been the most pro-abortion, kill babies wherever you find them, and pro-LGBTQ+1 POTUS ever to sit [or things that rhyme with sit] in the Oval Office. And his highly decorated wife, the honorable and devout Catholic/Presbyterian/Doctor/First Lady holds the same anti-Catholic, anti-human life, pro-lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender [aka gender dysphoria], queer, plus one [whatever that is] values.

You honestly cannot make this stuff up. 

The Bidens practice of their version of Catholicism is worse than blowing one's nose in the Pope's Zucchetto on Easter Sunday in the Vatican and flipping it into the congregation like a frisbee. 

But to Joe's credit, he wasn't getting it on with a young aide in the Oval Office and stuffing a ballot box with a cigar. Sure, he was sniffing the hair of young girls and whispering things in their young ears, and he even admitted that he likes it when children sit in his lap, but other than that, he's almost a saint.

Doctor Biden was raised a Presbyterian, but she soon caught on with the Catholic-ish shtick hubby Joe does and now regularly attends Mass with her veggie at her side.

In Doctor Jill's memoir, crayoned in 2019, she wrote that  “traveling to Italy and being in a country closely tied to the family’s Catholic religion was an escape and a comfort.”

Last week in Kenya, Doctor Catholic Jill Biden wore rosary beads like a necklace, which is like treating the Virgin Mary like an accessory. Wearing rosary beads is unusual and is rather disrespectful but it's possible Doctor Jill didn't know that since she's Presbyterian.  

So what does the wife of the US President do when she's in Kenya? She went a-lecturing and spoke down to the people about artificial methods of contraception, which is contrary to conception, the latter being what Catholics support while fully against the former, but maybe she didn't study that in Doctor School.

“As part of her five-day trip to Namibia and Kenya last week, Biden participated in multiple events pertaining to the ’empowerment of women and youth,’” LifeSite News reported on Feb. 27th.

“On Saturday the First Lady stopped by the Shujaaz Konnect Festival in Nairobi, Kenya, where she dropped in on a watch party for ‘MTV Shuga,’ an African drama series that aims to promote ‘sexual and reproductive health and rights.'”

“According to press pool notes compiled by Washington Post reporter Jada Yuan, the Rosary-sporting Biden commended Kenyan youth attending the festival for their willingness to learn about and discuss ‘safe dating and safe sex.'”

As opposed to the tenets of Christian faith as well as the Jewish religion which only supports sex in the bonds of matrimony. 

Even religious Presbyterians know that.

Doctor Jill Biden awards man the "Woman of Courage" award

He can bench press 150 pounds, nut Blinken can't


Men are destroying women's records in every sporting event in which they dress up as a woman, or refer to themselves as such, even in cases where they sport twigs and berries. 

Even men with Adam's apples and large masculine bone structure are winning beauty contests against women without Adam's apples but have actual breasts and XX chromosomes and the ability to give birth because like their actual breasts, they are actually women.

But they can't compete with the men. From powerlifting to swimming, to mixed martial arts, men are kicking women's shaplier butts figuratively and literally. Rather than refusing to compete, which would put an end to this crap, women understandably don't want to give up their scholarships or team positions, even when the men who compete against them place ahead of them almost all the time.

First Lady and eminent Doctor Jill Biden along with Secretary of State Antony Blinken were blasted on Wednesday after they presented an Argentinian dude with an award created for actual women on International Women's Day.

The Woke House honored eleven women from around the globe who, according to a press release by the State Department, "are working to build a brighter future for us all."

Alba Reuda, an Argentinian man, was introduced at the award ceremony as a "transgender woman who was kicked out of classrooms, barred for sitting for exams, refused job opportunities, subjected to violence, and rejected by her family. But in the face of these challenges, she worked to end violence and discrimination against the LGBTQ plus community in Argentina."

Twitter went ballistic. Why are they giving a guy in a gown who was born a man and suffers from gender dysphoria an award for his mental disorder that was meant to be given to an actual woman?

Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) posted: "It’s International Women’s Day – a good time to remember that Democrats can’t even tell you what a woman is." [Even a SCOTUS justice isn't sure what she is because she isn't a biologist.]

"We are not a serious country," Common Sense Society's Christopher Bedford tweeted.

"Nice of FLOTUS to encourage the diminishment of women on ‘international women's day.’ Erasing women is abusive," Dana Loesch, host of the "Dana Show" wrote.

"International Women's Day: Not just for women anymore," conservative Twitter personality Andrea Katherine posted.

"Apparently men are a lot better at being women than women are. Step up your game, ladies," Townhall columnist and radio personality Derek Hunter joked.

RedState author and author Buzz Patterson wrote, "Nothing screams ‘International Women of Courage Award’ like a dude."

Claremont Institute president Ryan P. Williams tweeted, "The jokes write themselves…"

Rueda currently serves as Argentina’s Special Envoy for Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Trade and Worship. 

The State Department said Rueda had "actively campaigned to change the name of the National Women’s Conference to the ‘Plurinational Conference of Women and Lesbian, Cross-Dresser, Transgender, Bisexual, Intersex and Non-Binary Persons' to include diverse, dissident, and racialized identities.’"

That's a mouthful.

Yes, it's true: the jokes write themselves . . . but they aren't really funny.

Biden's brain short-circuits when asked what Jill thinks about him running in 2024

That look you get when you feel something going on below


Some call it zoning out, others call it a brain fart when alleged President Joe Biden was asked in an interview whether his illustrious wife, Doctor Jill Biden, wants him to run for reelection in 2024 when he will be 81 years and hopefully still able to convert oxygen into carbon dioxide rather than having the daisies do the opposite above ground.  

He would be 86 years old by the end of his second term, which would make him the oldest and worst president in history.

“I have not made that formal decision but it’s my intention . . . to run again and we’ll have time to make that decision,” Biden mumbled to MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart when asked whether he plans on running again.

“Doctor [Jill] Biden is for it?” Capehart asked, his voice rising to indicate that it was a question, not an answer, so as not to confuse Joe, who has been known to mistake his wife for his sister.

Capehart waited and waited some more as an awkward silence floated in the air like flatulence in an elevator. Joe glanced downward toward his shoes as he sat confused in his chair. Who is this so-called Doctor Biden? he appeared to be asking himself. Funny, she has the same last name as me.

“Mr. President —,” the interviewer eventually said in order to wake him from his demented internal dialogue.

“Dr. Biden thinks that — my wife thinks that I, uh — that we’re doing something very important,” Biden finally said, after remembering who this so-called Doctor Biden is but forgetting what that important thing they're doing happens to be.

Biden has not officially said that he was going to run again as Democrats worry that he will. He was never considered to be bright, but with his dementia, even stupid is smarter than him. He clearly cannot get a sentence out without the help of a Teleprompter, and even then, it's a crap shoot as to whether he's going to read the words in the device without screwing them up.

Concerns about Biden's cognitive decline have increased by merely 13 points with Democrats due to their cognitive dissonance that can be attributed to their denial of what is obvious on a daily basis whenever Biden speaks or gets lost [at which time Doctor Jill Biden must grab him by the arm and usher him off stage]. 

This past September, a USA Today/Ipsos poll found that over half of Democratic voters think President Biden should not seek re-election in 2024, saying they want a change in the party, preferably someone who doesn't need adult diapers on the campaign trail.

In a Fox News poll published on Sunday, only 33% of Americans said they would ​vote to reelect the demented President if the 2024 election were held today while 54% said they would cast their ballot for another candidate. 

Also, 56% of voters said they believe Biden does not have the “mental soundness” to serve as president, while 40% who proudly display their cognitive dissonance on their sleeves say he does.​

Biden reportedly told Rev. Al Sharpton that he will be running for re-election during a visit to the White House last month, to which Sharpton said that doing so is racist, "especially coming from a Whitey."

Report: Jill Biden is behind the curtain pulling the strings and shoving Joe when needed


It's quite obvious that alleged President Joe Biden has the cognitive ability of gum. It's so bad that when he appears in public, his wife, Doctor Jill Biden, has to be there to direct him offstage to keep him from wandering around the podium.  So where Joe is supposedly our Commander in Chief, Jill is the shover in chief. 

[H/T RedState]

A report from the fish wrapper New York Times points out how Jill Biden was stepping in for Joe in key battleground races and shows the depths she goes to control old Joe and even his handlers--the people he has who are charged with the task of aggressively shooing the press away from him when he starts to babble, and to clean up his gaffes after they come spilling from his mush-mouth. Also, part of their task is to bust their butts to limit Joe's public appearances as a way of limiting the clean-u


The Times story by Katie Rogers is titled "Democrats in Tight Races Turn to Jill Biden on the Campaign Trail."

The fawning article describes Doctor Jill as the "president's most popular surrogate," and the requests for her [instead of Joe] "are piling up ahead of the midterm elections. Her visits can deliver a morale boost and a fund-raising opportunity."

The article describes how Jill Biden's weekend included five flights and eleven events as well as three appearances with Democrats who requested her help [instead of Joe's] ahead of the midterm elections. Why it's almost as if she has taken her lead from Michelle Obama.

Jill also appeared in Atlanta where the self-declared governor, Stacey Abrams, is in an "uphill race" against Brian Kemp, the actual Republican governor. And if it's an uphill battle, Abrams is in big trouble because uphill is not how she is built.

The article goes on to say that Jill "[d]oes not offend people in a way that a president can because she’s much less polarizing and political," Michael LaRosa, a communication strategist and former press secretary said. What he meant by his verbal calisthenics was that Biden's presence at a political event for his Party can only muck things up. His verbal ability has gone the way of the record player and the Beta Max.

This guy is the President of the United States. Imagine that.

The first lady has more control behind the scenes than you might imagine. She has reportedly been involved in the hiring of his incompetent press staff along with other senior aides. Rogers reports that Jill had even vetted Jen Psaki as she stood next to her confused husband.

When Biden delivered a nearly two-hour news conference in January, members of his senior staff were rehashing the appearance in the Treaty Room when Jill Biden appeared, at which point she asked the group, including her husband, why nobody stepped in to stop it [according to someone who was in the room].

She is not the President, but the scary thing is whether Joe really has that job. Nobody elected her but he wakes up every morning to discover that he is the President of the United States of America. What a nice feeling that must be before that bowl of oatmeal.

Lucky for Joe that he picked Kamala as his insurance policy.


Trump’s New Press Secretary Lasted Days Before Her Credentials Became the Story

The White House press secretary ’s job is to defend the president, handle hostile questions from the press, and explain the administration’s...
