[AD from SpringBay]

Is there a list of who is going with him any where? Which officials in particular?

I'm sure there is a list, somewhere. I know many of the travellers are White-House staff as well as a significant number of CEOs from around the nation. Plus security, the First Family, and Biden(?). I don't want to wear the tin foil, I really don't want to. But it just seems too excessive, even for Great Leader.

BIden and BO out of the country at the same time....Leaving Nancy P in charge....Heaven help us!

Surely Biden isn't going too!

Surley Joe (bite-me) Biden isn't going. That is dangerous. You know who is in line after “bite-me”:
