I see I need to read up on the “dead baby strategy” and why we need to disregard it when appropriate.

This was a headline on a local ABC affilliate’s Facebook page. “President Joe Biden speaks after an Islamic State leader exploded a bomb that killed him and members of his family during a US raid.”

Simply amazing that Biden can talk after being killed. I wonder which members of the Biden family were killed. Do they not have any editors that can write clearly.
