Biden Starts Whispering to Reporters Multiple Times During Press Conference

President Biden raised eyebrows on Thursday after he repeatedly whispered to reporters during a press conference at the White House.

The president leaned into the microphone on three occasions when giving answers during a discussion about the $1.2 trillion infrastructure deal.

When asked about additional relief for families, Biden whispered toward PBS reporter Yamiche Alcindor: “I got them $1.9 trillion in relief so far. They’re going to be getting checks in the mail that are consequential this week for childcare.”

Later, when asked by CNN reporter Phil Mattingly about how the deal was brokered despite low expectations, Biden said in a normal speaking voice that he always thought the outlook was good.

“I’m not going to negotiate with the press when I’m negotiating privately with my colleagues. And these are very tough decisions. I don’t in any way dismiss what Sen. [Chris] Murphy [D-Conn.] says about the environment. I don’t dismiss it at all,” Biden said.

Dropping to a whisper and stooping his head as his eyes grew wide, Biden added: “I wrote the bill on the environment. Why would I not be for it?”

Biden then whispered again when raising on his own the issue of some workers preferring to collect enhanced COVID-19 unemployment benefits than return to low-wage jobs.

“Pay them more. This is an employee’s — an employee’s bargaining chip now,” he whispered into the microphone. (New York Post)

The government needs to get out of the min. wage business.

When the President of this nation casually threatens the people of the United States with weapons of war, including nuclear weapons I think it is more than time to question his mental condition as well as his intent.

So when he threatens another country with a nuclear weapon, should that country take it seriously?

He’s proved he’s past the tipping point of having any logic left it’s time for him to be placed on the Happy Farm.

With Harris next in line it’s not going to get any better we are at great risk all thanks to the democrats and idiots who voted for him.

Where are all the “25th amendment’ types now - when it **is** needed?

They're probably hoping to drag ol' Joe along until they get past the 2-year mark, paving the way for a 10-year Harris Administration (the last half of Joe's fraudulent term, plus two full 4-year terms, with fraudulent 'wins' in 2024 & 2028)...

I’ve been thinking that for a while now. Even at that, she is so incompetent, she couldn’t grow into the job. And the assclowns in charge at the pentagon..... Hide the keys to the F-15s. 😕

I think cost-cutting is the last thing on her mind.

Nothing but the best for her, you know.

She’s already packing on the pounds, with taxpayer-paid-for personal chef in her new VP residence.

The poor blacks don’t realize that they are more slaves now than they were in 1860, tied to perpetually getting knocked up without the benefit of a husband or family, and then going on the dole for the rest of their lives. There children are going to be killed by other illegitimate children, or turn into an addiction to government control for the rest of their lives as well. That is paraphrasing a speech that Obama made himself in 2008.

Indiana dropped the federal free money program. People are suing them saying they do not want to work.

Don’t think those reduced work hours as a result of Obozocare has no effect. They are arguing that they can’t make it on a 20 hour work weeks etc.

All part of the squeeze play the globalists are playing.

Guess in some ways, we could consider it a continuation of the "Biden" Administration - Joe isn't actually running things (probably can't put his pants on without help), so whatever part of the 'deep state' is currently calling the shots would likely continue to do so, in the upcoming Kammy 'Brains' Harris Administration.

Or maybe it's not that complicated, and we should expect to see Brown comma Willie as our new VP, providing the new 'president' with the valuable counsel & experienced guidance he is renowned for...

Trump slowly walking down a slick ramp—dementia! 25th Amendment! Biden repeatedly showing signs of profound ‘oddness’—crickets.

The trouble with the 25th is it would really take 2/3rds of each house to really put him aside if he (or more likely Jill) were to contest it. And then what would we have? Kamala with Nancy on deck.
