President-elect Joe Biden got testy with a CBS News reporter who asked him a question on Friday about his plan to get children back into classrooms during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The tense exchange took place just as Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris were wrapping up a meeting with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in Wilmington, Delaware.
‘In my Oval Office, mi casa, you casa,’ Biden, who turned 78 years old on Friday, is heard telling the senior Democratic Party leaders.

What’s a president elect?
we can save lots of trouble with legislatures and congress and just have the Times call the election.
Before it even occurs
78 year old Biden was at an impromptu birthday party with Keisha Lance Bottoms and a bunch of other people guess what not a one of them were wearing masks or social distancing and Biden even went up and was hugging Lance Bottoms . They are all such liars.

Brits just don’t get how it works over here. Meanwhile, why does it seem Pelosi, Warren, Heels Up, Schumer even Biden himself and a few other assorted “Rats aren’t mouthing off so much.
Other than talking sh!t about Trump, in effect refusing to concede until this obvious coup is stopped and a full vote count is done and certified.
It’s from last year.
The self-described imaginary "President-Elect" Biden is a total fraud who completely forgot that when he was hiding in his basement for 98% of his so-called "Presidential election campaign," he occasionally popped up out of his hole to scream and angrily "shout" a teleprompter speech at maybe two or three curious bystanders in almost-empty parking lots. (Meanwhile, President Trump was giving rally speeches to crowds of thousands or tens of thousands of very enthusiastic and patriotic supporters.)
How could Sleepy Joe Basement-Biden forget that?
The tense exchange took place just as Biden and Harris were wrapping up a meeting with Pelosi and Schumer.
At that point, a Biden aide asked the assembled gaggle of reporters to leave as the photo op concluded.
Bo Erickson, a CBS News reporter who has been covering Biden and his campaign, asked the president-elect a question.
‘Mr. Biden, the COVID task force said it’s safe for children to be back in class,’ Erickson is heard saying as the other reporters are ushered out of the room.
Erickson then asks if Biden will encourage teachers unions to cooperate in returning students to classrooms.
‘Why are you the only guy that always shouts out questions?’ Biden says in response. He declined to answer the question.
Teachers unions have been resistant to the idea of returning to full-fledged, in-person instruction due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
This is the second time in a little more than a month that Biden has lost his cool in response to a question from Erickson.
Last month, the CBS News reporter asked Biden about his son Hunter's foreign dealings.
And here are the money quotes, from reporters defending Bo Erickson ---
‘Shouting questions will again be deemed a bad, disrespectful thing,’ The Hill media columnist Joe Concha tweeted.
‘A completely valid and important question asked in a civil tone...deflected by Biden, who may not have understood it because it wasn't screened by staff first,’ radio host Derek Hunter tweeted.
‘Because Bo is trying to do journalism and much of the rest of Biden's press corps are stenographers,’ journalist Zaid Jilani reacted.
‘It's a great question that deserves an answer from Biden,’ Washington Examiner reporter Jerry Dunleavy tweeted.
Erickson’s CBS News colleague, White House correspondent Paula Reid, tweeted: ‘President-Elect Biden asks a good question - why is @BoKnowsNews the only one in the Biden pool tossing questions? Schools, vaccines, stimulus - so many important q’s for both @SpeakerPelosi & @JoeBiden.’
‘Good for Bo, also the idea that this was a “shouted” question is hilarious,’ ABC News correspondent Will Steakin tweeted.
‘As we see many other reporters throw softballs at Biden, reporters that ask tough questions of both sides (like Bo) are going to be far more important over the next 4 years,’ conservative writer A.G. Hamilton said.
May not be legit. Keisha Lance Bottoms was born in January. Plus I don’t think Peking Joe comes out of his basement unless he smells children.
He’s the President Select.
Tony Soprano selected his uncle to be the new "Boss" of the NJ mafia, while Tony and his henchmen were the real power. "Junior" had no idea that he had been set up to serve as a "lightning rod" to deflect the attention of the "Feds" and take the "heat" off of Tony.
Regards,
Exactly. Biden is in early stages of dementia. He can’t remember beyond yesterday or think past tomorrow!
***Biden, who turned 78 years old on Friday,***
Anyone remember how newspaper and magazine articles, in 1980, were betting Ronald Reagan would never last his first term as he was 69 when elected? One magazine even had an illustration of Reagan laying on an autopsy table.
Well, now they have a 78 year old codger, IF he makes it to the inauguration. Harris is just chomping at the bit. The only way they will get a woman President.
If sworn into office we may be looking at another William Henry Harrison
Shortest presidency:
31 days
1841
Get ready for the Kommie road ho!
