The wringing of the hands is furious. With another election less than a month away the anxiety is fierce. And the barbs are already flying.

Biden delivered remarks after his bilateral meeting with China’s Xi Jinping. Then he took questions from a preapproved list of reporters: “I’m happy to take questions and I’m told there will be four questioners.” Republicans may retake the House of Representatives after a lack-luster performance in the 2022 midterm elections so Biden prepared the Gen Zers for another let down. “I don’t think there’s enough votes to codify [Roe] unless something happens unusual in the House,” Biden said. Democrat voters got played again! Biden promised Gen Z he was going to give them a student bailout and codify Roe v...
