Joe Biden and the first lady, Dr. Jill Biden, flew to their home in Delaware Friday aboard Marine One after receiving criticism from the White House press corps about previous trips there on Air Force One.
Reporters told Biden Press Secretary Jen Psaki that the trips on the presidential jet during the coronavirus pandemic set a bad example, Mediaite reported.
The change to Marine One, the president's helicopter, comes after two different briefing room exchanges ...

I guess just like Pelosi should be able to get a haircoloring, or Newsom should be able to host a $5,000/plate sit-down dinner ....etc etc etc
He’s not even living in the Whitehouse
Bidan NEVER flew on any aircraft with a call sign of "AF1" - he did fly though, but call sign usually was "N/A". (Note: AF2 *has* been used when commie-la flies)
Biden has been photographed boarding and exiting a rental jet with a presidential seal taped to the door. This has been true since he took office - the day of his inauguration, it seems the military did not have a single aircraft ‘Biden’ could use to fly to his inauguration. (But Trump was flyin’ around on AF1).
On Jan 20, the MSM filmed Biden ‘arriving’ at the airport in a completely, and I do mean COMPLETELY, unmarked jet with no tail numbers or symbols etc. That kind of jet is typical of the CIA and other nefarious types. Actually, Biden probably wasn’t even on it as he was not photographed with it - but at least the CIA could loan him a plane to taxi that the MSM could ascribe to his Jan 20th “arrival”.
I can understand why the Press wants to see less of that “Air Force One” which doesn’t use the traditional presidential call sign anyway. Biden’s ‘different’ in a short-bus kinda way.
Maybe it’s easier to get a fake/rental Marine One?
That confirms it which make me ask. “Hmmmm what is going on”? Biden loves money and living in style, funny he is not living in the White House were he can have a staff at his call and his needs met.
Get off my President’s chopper, ya bum!
4 out of 8 weekends not spent in the White House.
And this isn’t going to change either. According to the article they are trying to keep ‘family Sunday dinners.’
Also talks about him meeting with his advisors in his Delaware home. Who and how are they getting there? And what secrets/plans are happening behind those closed doors that cannot happen in DC?
Why?
According to Google, Wilmington is 110 miles away.
So, you have a high value target, flying at a low altitude, over a densely populated area, at a maximum speed of 150 mph, for almost one hour.
From a security point of view, that does not sound like a good plan.
Marine 1 is ancient in helo years.
“The Sikorsky VH-3D Sea King is the primary short-range transport aircraft for the President, Vice President, White House cabinet and staff. Operated by Marine Corps aviators from HMX-1, the Sea King ncludes Day/night/all-weather operations, self-contained navigation system, GPS, TCAS, survivability systems, and crash-survivable flight information recorder sensor, and carries no weapons. Communications include extensive secure and non-secure communication systems; and EMP hardening.
Dubbed “Marine One,” the VH-3D is out of production and a recent replacement program was cancelled in 2009 and the Navy was forced to go back to the drawing board to find an alternative.
More than 800 Marines supervise the operation of the Marine One fleet, which is based in Quantico, Virginia, but is more often seen in action on the South Lawn of the White House or at Joint Base Andrews Naval Air Facility in Maryland. At Andrews, it is sometimes used to connect to Air Force One for longer journeys.
As a security measure, Marine One always flies in a group with identical helicopters, sometimes as many as five. One helicopter carries the President, while the others serve as decoys. Upon take-off these helicopters begin to shift in formation to obscure the location of the President. Marine One is also equipped with standard military anti-missile countermeasures such as flares to counter heat-seeking missiles and chaff to counter radar-guided missiles, as well as AN/ALQ-144A infrared countermeasures.”

Almost older then Stolen Joe.
After all the complaints about Trump's trips we're going to criticize Biden's? Really?
The FLOTUS should be referred to as “Jill Biden, Ph.D.”
Calling her “Dr.” falsely elevates her gravitas during the plannedemic.
Probably had to head home because somebody forgot to feed the dogs.
He probably missed his dog. That pup is his service Yuck dog
She doesn’t have a PH.D.
I’d like to call her “Mrs. Joe Biden,” it ticks her off.
And I saw a listing of the roads that were going to be closed for his motorcade home Friday, just prior to 5 p.m. and included I-95, I-495 and I-295. I'm sure that made him popular with the commuting crowd. Should be interesting when shore traffic starts.
Actually Jill Biden, Ed.D.
Calling her “Dr.” falsely elevates her gravitas during the plannedemic.
Call her Dr. Biden is correct.
