Joe Biden on Tuesday traveled to his *hometown* of Scranton, Pennsylvania for a campaign event. And literally no one cares. VIDEO AT LINK............ Virtually no one showed up to see 81-million vote recipient Joe Biden – in his hometown – in a state he supposedly won in 2020. Biden is delivering remarks on the US tax code at the Scranton Cultural Center at the Masonic Temple. Perhaps he should tell his own son Hunter Biden to pay his taxes. Hunter was indicted on federal tax evasion charges. The press line was longer than the attendee line, according to Newsmax. Per...

Remember when President Joe Biden tried to quote the Declaration of Independence? "We hold these truths to be self-evident: all men and women created by -go- you know - you know the thing." That was his stutter. All the times he's lied about his son being killed in Iraq? That's his stutter too. Getting arrested trying to visit Nelson Mandela? His stutter. Those times when he just freezes up like his brain is rebooting? That is his stutter. We hear a lot about Biden's lifelong stutter, even though it's noticeably absent from footage of him as a senator and as...

When I first began this journey, I didn’t know how many hours of footage I would listen to, but I thought “100 hours” would be ideal. Trust me, after watching just 7 hours of Joe Biden talking — he’s not the most interesting speaker — I knew 100 hours would be impossible, so I decided to go one video at a time and see where it took me. Luckily, I work from home — I am a writer and a graphic designer — so I can listen to one clip after another while I do my work. I always paused...

President Joe Biden said Wednesday he continues to suffer from his childhood stutter, telling an audience he has not fully conquered it. “I didn’t really beat my stutter — still occasionally I do,” he said, recalling the struggle he experienced as a child.

Rush Limbaugh was saying some months ago that the American Left wants to put a stop to all elections. Could this all be about getting rid of the vote altogether? An analogy: Is the Papacy of Pope Francis so extreme that the Catholics will revert back to a more-nearly BVI or JPII papacy? But will it even matter, at all? The sloppiness of Francis' pronouncements are so extreme, the real goal could have been delegimization of the Papacy as an institution. Both the St. Gallen Mafia and the American Democrats are intellectually sloppy to an extreme. But the greedy oligarch...

Joe Biden asserted that his childhood stutter is not the source of his much-publicized verbal stumbles on the campaign trail. “I don't think of myself as continuing to stutter," Biden said in an Axios on HBO interview that aired Sunday. "But apparently people will say occasionally say [in fact when] I'm tired, I'll go, I'll say, um, uh, and I'll find myself searching for a second." **SNIP** During the July Democratic presidential primary debate, Biden had numerous stumbles. He told viewers to "go to Joe 3-0-3-3-0" when he likely meant to say to text the number to show support for...

'His name on the cup was written as 'SSSAM,' which was disrespectful.' For the second time this year, a Philadelphia Starbucks is at the center of controversy after a worker was accused of mocking a man with a stutter. Tan Lekwijit said the incident began when his friend Sam visited the Starbucks on 34th and Walnut streets in University City back on June 27. According to Lekwijit, Sam, a 28-year-old University of Pennsylvania graduate student who has a stutter, stuttered when he told the barista his name after he ordered a coffee. The barista allegedly replied by saying, “Okay, S-S-S-Sam.”...

Country music singer Mel Tillis, whose six-decade career included hits such as “I Ain’t Never” and “Coca Cola Cowboy” and who never let his stutter get in the way of him becoming a legend, died on Sunday, his publicist confirmed. He was 85. Tillis passed away at Munroe Regional Medical Center in Ocala, Fla., his publicist Don Murry Grubbs said. The music legend is believed to have died from respiratory failure after he never recovered from intestinal issues he has been battling since 2016. He leaves behind his longtime partner, Kathy DeMonaco, his six children and six grandchildren. Tillis recorded...

The lame duck president went to Indiana today to hold a rally and trash-talk Donald Trump. Unfortunately, it didn’t go as planned. He turned into a stuttering mess.

“The Kings Speech” is about a hero... who battles an invisible enemy that torments nearly 70 million people around the world. In demystifying the little-understood speech impediment, the award-winning film reveals myths and fascinating truths about stuttering, and has won praise from stutterers of all ages. For Erik Yehl, an 11-year-old ...who began stuttering in preschool, the movie’s powerful message is, “I’m not stupid.” It’s a stigma all people who stutter contend with — ...that because their words sometimes sputter or fail to come out..., their minds must be... mixed up. “People who stutter — their minds are perfectly good,...

Heard this played on the Schnitt Show this afternoon. CUE TO 5:55 min Turn up the sound and listen carefully to a very strange stutter...

Master Orator Steps All Over His Poncho

RUSH: Grab audio sound bite number 26 first, Mike. I didn't know we'd get to this this early. I asked Cookie to put together a little montage here of all the stuttering around that Obama did in his press conference today and I want you to hear this because -- and we didn't repeat anything here. It goes 46 seconds, and we're doing this because we hear constantly, "What a great orator and a great communicator! Ohhhh, this man is smooth!" Just listen. This is a great illustration here of what happened when you take the teleprompter and your prepared...

"Let me be absolutely clear," Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, said today at a press conference in Amman, Jordan. "Israel is a strong friend of Israel's. It will be a strong friend of Israel's under a McCain...administration. It will be a strong friend of Israel's under an Obama administration. So that policy is not going to change."

On March 4, 2007, at the 42nd Anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Selma, Alabama, Mrs. Clinton recounted how as a young girl she had the great privilege of hearing Dr. Martin Luther King speak in Chicago: “ The year was 1963”, Clinton said in her speech. “My youth minister from our church took a few of us down on a cold January night to hear someone that we had read about, we had watched on television, we had seen with our own eyes from a distance, this phenomenon known as Dr. King.At Selma, Hillary said she had seen MLK in...

Many are quick to lambast the man on his various speech disfluencies, believing them to be the result of a poor intellect, but what if they are something quite beyond his control? Some of our greatest personalities and leaders in history were stutterers: Moses, Julius Ceasar, and Winston Chruchill among others. As a mild stutterer myself, his speech patterns are strikingly similar to my own. I do not outwardly stutter to the casual observer, however I do mix and match words in an attempt to bypass a block (such as saying "this evening" instead of "tonight" to avoid the hard...
