When millions of Americans woke up this morning, sat on their toilets, and scrolled through their phones (don’t deny it, we all do it), they likely had a similar thought: “Is this real? Or is it The Babylon Bee?”
I present to you the headline: “Biden to present Hillary Clinton, George Soros and 17 others the Presidential Medal of Freedom.”
Among the other lucky recipients:
Bono (frontman of U2) Michael J. Fox Magic Johnson Lionel Messi Denzel Washington Bill Nye the Science Guy Jane Goodall Ralph Lauren Anna Wintour Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you our nation’s best and brightest!
By any objective standard, it’s an eclectic list of left-leaning celebrities. It’s like a who’s-who of has-beens. Some of them make a modicum of sense: for example, two of Bono’s best-known songs are “Where the Streets Have No Name” and “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For.”
Well, Biden gets lost a lot and can’t find things, too.
Bill Nye and Jane Goodall were interesting additions. I guess they were included to demonstrate the Biden-Harris administration’s firm, unyielding commitment to science. Nye did a TV show for children, and Goodall studied monkeys, so they should be right at home on Capitol Hill.
Denzel Washington was another weird selection, because he was tapped for the exact same honor in 2022. Now, I have nothing against Denzel. Those “Equalizer” movies were fine. But two Presidential Medal of Freedom awards in 30 months?! Isn’t that overkill?
I suspect “Doctor” Jill Biden has a crush on Denzel.

You know, if Biden wants a hat trick, he can posthumously award the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Josef Stalin.
Posthumously to Hitler.
Can the Medal of Freedom be given to non-Americans? I can see at least three on that list?
As it stands, awarding this medal to some of these people cheapens it to the point of worthlessness.
Yes a pull tab off an old beer can.
I agree. The medal of freedom should be reserved, now, for Democrat/Communist reprobates. They should be awarded by
the thousands.
In contrast, DJT and Congress should create a new "Medal of Liberty," awarded to Republican citizens of sound moral fiber.
While in office, Trump should award the Medal of Freedom to all the convicts that Biden pardoned.
and Messi didn’t show! lol
