President Joe Biden tested positive for Covid-19, the White House said. The president, who was delivering speeches in Las Vegas, "is experiencing mild symptoms," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement. Biden "will be returning to Delaware where he will self-isolate and will continue to carry out all of his duties fully during that time," she said.

MSNBC says if Joe Biden recovers from covid it should be seen as a sign of strength, similar to Donald Trump surviving an assassination attempt. They really said this. Live. On air.

As President Joe Biden flies back to Delaware from Las Vegas on Wednesday night, cutting his trip short after testing positive for Covid-19, he faces one of the most momentous decisions of his long political life: Should he heed the rising calls from his fellow Democrats to extinguish his bid for reelection? For Biden, is it a new moment? Even though anger and panic have been steadily rising inside the Democratic Party for nearly three weeks, after the president’s alarming debate performance in Atlanta, the White House and the Biden campaign are in a new place, multiple Democratic officials told...

Former NBA guard Terrence Ross had a terse message for politicians in the U.S. in the aftermath of an assassination attempt on former President Trump. Ross took to task politicians who offer outlandish statements in the middle of political cycles and then act shocked when something like the shooting at a Trump campaign rally in Pennsylvania occurs. "What’s happening to our country? Our government and politicians divide us, then act shock when things go to far," Ross wrote on X. "It shouldn’t be red vs blue. It should us vs them. We have more in common than any of these...

Photos from the aftermath of Fandango founder J. Michael Cline's suicide show his body being loaded up by the New York City Medical Examiner ... and it's a grisly scene.

Back to Videos Michael Steele: "A Lot Of Questions Around That Ear," We Have No Official Medical Records From Trump Assassination Attempt Posted By Tim Hains On Date July 17, 2024 Michael Steele, who served as the head of the RNC during the Obama administration, speculated Tuesday on MSNBC about big unanswered questions about "the extent and nature of the damage to [Donald Trump's] ear" following the assassination attempt Saturday. "There are a lot of questions around that ear," Steele said. "Let's start with last night and the band-aid. It’s been three days -- going on four -- since this...

[cut] You couldn’t have predicted this jubilance a few years ago. On January 7, 2021, Trump was an exile of sorts. Then, after the 2022 elections, he was chastised for his role in setting up the GOP’s midterm failure. The conservative movement’s main media pipeline, Fox News, was turning on him. MAGA’s ascendant tech-tycoon class salivated over Ron DeSantis. The party’s national security wing pined for Nikki Haley. But then Trump was indicted and Republicans, including his opponents, rallied around him. And then he won the primary without participating in a single debate. And then he was convicted and his...

President Biden opened the door just a crack on potentially dropping out of the race. After having said earlier this month that it would take word from “the Lord Almighty” to make him leave the race, Mr. Biden downgraded the source Wednesday to an M.D. Asked in an interview with BET what would make him re-evaluate his insistence that he will be on the ballot in November, he replied “if I had some medical condition that emerged.” “If doctors came to me and said, you got this problem and that problem,” he added, according to a clip released by the...

A leftist activist has been arrested for burning down a gun shop owned by Cornel Rasor, a Republican candidate for the Idaho State House of Representatives, on the Fourth of July. The activist, Jennifer S. Meyer, is accused of burning down Cornel Rasor’s Army Surplus Store in Sandpoint, prompting celebrations from her fellow leftists. Meyer has reportedly made signs for the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) and a local arts commission. It appears the fire that consumed Cornell Razor’s Army Surplus store (located just 1 block away from where Sandpoint Pride is held) was ARSON, not a “stray firework.”...

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, in separate private meetings with President Biden last week, told Biden his continued candidacy imperils the Democratic Party’s ability to control either chamber of Congress next year. In a separate one-on-one conversation, a person close to Biden told the president directly that he should end his candidacy, saying that was the only way to preserve his legacy and save the country from another Trump term, the person said. The president responded that he adamantly disagreed with that opinion and that he is the best candidate to defeat Trump....

Sue Mi Terry, a former CIA analyst and a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, is accused by federal prosecutors of acting as a secret agent for South Korea. Terry, whose husband Max Boot regularly falsely accused former President Trump of being a Russian asset, reportedly used her position and access to U.S. officials to provide sensitive information to South Korea in exchange for luxury items and other lavish benefits, according to the indictment, New York Post reported. The allegations state that from Oct. 2013, Terry engaged in activities that compromised her role as an independent foreign policy...

Apologies to George Carlin.

Incredible audience reception. Delivers fiery speech. Brings wife onstage at the end. "I went to prison so you won't have to." "We got this."

US President Joe Biden has tested positive for COVID-19, the White House confirmed on Wednesday evening after CNN and other media outlets reported the diagnosis. Word of the diagnosis came approximately an hour and a half before Biden was expected to speak at the UnidosUS conference in Las Vegas. “I was just on the phone with President Biden. And he shared his deep disappointment at not being able to join us this afternoon. The President has been at many events as we all know and he just tested positive for COVID,” Janet Murguía, president and CEO of UnidosUS, told attendees....

Our propaganda-driven fake news media is facing a real dilemma. For once, they actually did their job and reported the truth about the moment President Trump was shot. Unfortunately for them, the truth of who Trump really is and his reaction to facing down death resonated too well with the American people, turning him into an even bigger icon. That’s not what our regime-run media is supposed to do, so now they’re scrambling to figure out ways to dial it down and downplay that iconic photo, and they think they’ve come up with the perfect solution. Bury the photo… The...

Who's Ready to Fight! Fight! Fight! We can continue posting stories from the attempted assassination of our President Donald J. Trump that are slanted and biased... ...or... We can seek to have a coordinated effort of our own. Let's start with the $DJT stock. It got shorted to the moon - with the short buyers betting that the stock would take a massive dump on Monday July 15, 2024. It would have, if the assassination attempt was successful. Who took out those short positions? Most of us don't have access to that data. Some of you in the financial space...
