Joe Biden Stuck In LA Overnight Due To Severe Winds and Wildfires; POTUS Cancelled Coachella Valley Visit Earlier Tuesday – Update
Deadline ^ | Jan 7, 2025 | Dominic Patten

Posted on 01/07/2025 10:48:58 PM PST by CondoleezzaProtege

he President of the United States has been forced to spend an unexpected night in Los Angeles due to the powerful winds and wildfires pounding the county.

Originally set to depart LA around 2:15 p.m. PT this afternoon after designating two national monuments, Joe Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden will now try to fly out of town at 2 p.m. PT on Wednesday, according to the White House.

As the already fierce winds gusts are picking up, a decision was made that it was “not advisable” to move the First Couple to Air Force 1 at LAX and attempt to take off into strong turbulence, I’m told. Also, having AF1 taking off would have increased the air restrictions in the region for presidential security – a move that could have hampered helicopters and other aircraft from working on fighting the fires before it gets too dark.

As it is, with nothing to do with Air Force One, many choppers and planes are grounded right now in LA County because of the winds.

Tomorrow, the Bidens are scheduled to travel via Marine One to LAX, Santa Ana winds permitting. If all goes to plan, they will return to the White House around 10 p.m. ET.

The President is supposed to be delivering a eulogy for Jimmy Carter in DC on January 9. A close friend of the 46th POTUS, the 39th POTUS died on December 29 at the age of 100. Carter’s flag-draped casket is lying in state in the Capitol presently before returning to Georgia for burial this weekend.

For the record, Joey has NEVER flown on ANY aircraft with an FAA call sign of “Air Force One “. It usually is “NO CALL SIGN “ or “EMPTY CALL SIGN “.

He’s probably staying in the general vicinity of the Palisades Fire.

Fire is moving north toward Malibu.

Depending where he is in the LA area, drive Joementia south to MCAS Miramar or north to the Point Mugu airfield at Naval Base Ventura County. Reposition the VC-25 747 at LAX, if possible, or fly in another asset to take Sock Puppet back to D.C.

It's at times like this we recall Michael Brown, the Gentle Giant of Ferguson, Missouri:
Michael Brown's stepfather consoled the dead teen's distraught mother … and then turned to the crowd of demonstrators, saying, “Burn this motherf—er down” and “Burn this bitch down” — CNN
Words to live by, as we watch deadly wildfire consume Los Angeles — Burn this bitch down!

Why the hell is he there. He's going to blow the planned ceremony for Carter on the 9th...those winds aren't going away.

What a fool.

Outside of the entertainment value, does anyone really care if he’s there, or not?
I don’t think Jimmy will know the difference.

Maybe Kamala can do the eulogy? If someone hides the wine box for a couple days.

Kamala and her husband live in Pacific Palisades. Likely she could lose her house. She’s probably still in DC since she oversaw the certification on Monday and Carters funeral tomorrow.

Since he can’t fly, Joe can justify giving California $100B for hi-speed rail.

She is supposed to. He can’t be coherent.

Mid-South gets hit Friday, they can’t drive on 1 inch of snow, much less the 3-4 expected. 25 now. Spit snow most of yesterday. Need groceries, go today.
