Joe Biden is so exhausted from his ‘whistle tour’ yesterday that he called a lid and shut everything down before noon on Thursday.

CLEVELAND — Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden released his 2019 tax returns Tuesday afternoon, just hours before his first debate with President Trump in Cleveland. “The American people deserve transparency from their leaders, it’s why as of today, I’ve released 22 years of my tax returns,” Biden tweeted Tuesday, 48 hours after the New York Times published leaked portions of what it said were the commander-in-chief’s financial records. The former veep and wife Jill Biden declared a gross income of $985,233 in 2019 and paid $299,346 in federal income tax, according to the financial disclosures published on the campaign website....

Amidst all of the night’s theatrics, the biggest news from Tuesday’s debate was what Joe Biden wouldn’t say, rather than anything President Donald Trump did. Once again, Biden refused to say whether he would expand the size of the Supreme Court to pack it with liberals. After the debate on CNN, his running mate, Senator Kamala Harris, also refused to answer the question.             It’s painfully obvious why Biden avoids the topic. His entire campaign strategy relies on winning over disaffected moderate voters who may not love Trump’s personality but don’t want to see far-left...

The Washington Post‘s editorial board issued an endorsement of Joe Biden’s White House bid on Monday, arguing the former vice president was the right person to replace the “worst president of modern time.” “In order to expel the worst president of modern times, many voters might be willing to vote for almost anybody,” the editorial board wrote. “Fortunately, to oust President [Donald] Trump in 2020, voters do not have to lower their standards.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Kamala Harris, marking the first time he’s ever publicly thrown his weight behind a political candidate. With the exception of a brief flirtation with a 2020 presidential run himself, Johnson, 48, often takes great pains to remain apolitical at a time when Hollywood is seemingly filled to the brim with activism. However, the “Jumanji” actor took to Instagram, on Sunday, where he shared a video of a virtual conversation he had with the two Democratic candidates and officially gave them his public endorsement. “I’m going to be pushing...

By the time Joe Biden takes the stage Tuesday night for his first debate with President Trump, he will have gone through dozens upon dozens of hours of preparation with a close group of advisers firing questions at him. One of the main advisers leading the drills is Ron Klain, his longtime confidant and former chief of staff who isn’t officially on the Biden campaign, but knows the former vice president almost better than anyone. “He knows Biden’s strengths and weaknesses to the letter,” said one longtime Biden aide. “No one can help Biden prepare for this moment better than...

The family says they got the Trump flags just a week ago after Dennis, a contractor, had a dispute at a work site over his support for the president. Since they have had the flags up, they say people have been driving by their house very slowly, some taking pictures. “We’re just very happy to be alive, and praise God that we’re alive,” Deana said.

Paul Sperry @paulsperry_ DEVELOPING: Polls show the Biden campaign's strategy of scaring seniors over COVID & Social Security is getting traction. It's running ads claiming Trump wont protect them from the disease & will slash their SS checks. So far the Trump campaign has marshaled no effective response

CNN says it will host a "drive-in town hall" with Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Thursday night, which the network calls "the latest adaptation to campaigning during the coronavirus pandemic." The former vice president will take questions from voters in the parking lot of PNC Field in Moosic, Pa., starting at 8 p.m. "Thirty-five cars will file into the parking lot, where a stage and monitors have been set up, and audience members and cars will be spaced out to comply with social distancing guidelines," said Kate Lunger, the vice president of CNN's special events team. "There will be...

Has Joe Biden become so insignificant that he has become a non-person even at Politico which supposedly covers politics in-depth? We have already seen that Politico has become laughably incurious about why Joe Biden has taken so many "lid" days and now it appears that Biden coverage at that periodical of politics has shrunk to the point he has disappeared entirely in some sections, such as their Politico Playbook. Although Tuesday's Politico Playbook PM by Anna Palmer, Jake Sherman, Eli Okun, and Garrett Ross runs over 2200 words and covers a wide variety of political subjects, the number of times...

Wow: Joe Biden’s staff won’t even let him do a “spontaneous” Q&A session without a script. Is he really that far gone? Obsessive scripting is the only explanation for what happened at last week’s Biden question-and-answer session with AFL-CIO union members, when the candidate responded to a young barista’s query with the non sequitur, “Move it up here” — then paused. Anyone who’s been following Biden’s travails recognizes those words as a cue to his aides to jog the teleprompter, as he’s done time and again in recent weeks. (Why an experienced politician with a top-notch staff keeps having this...

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is gearing up for a massive legal war over the results of the November election. The Biden campaign has tapped Dana Remus, its general counsel, and Bob Bauer, an Obama-era White House counsel, to lead a so-called special litigation unit of hundreds of lawyers, according to The New York Times. The law firm Perkins Coie, which was a player in the production of a dossier of discredited claims about President Donald Trump, is a key part of the campaign machine assigned to attack rules about voting in order to serve the Biden campaignÂ’s interests, the...

This time four years ago, Warren Buffett was publicly campaigning for Hillary Clinton, even planning a trolley ride to the polls with Omaha voters. The billionaire’s schedule looks a little different ahead of the 2020 election, however. Notably, it lacks any public political engagements. Buffett has yet to raise funds or campaign for this year’s Democratic presidential nominee, former vice-president Joe Biden

The Biden campaign has been quietly building a massive "election protection program," including former Attorney General Eric Holder and hundreds of other lawyers in preparation for a legal battle in the event of a contested election. The former vice president’s campaign told Fox News Monday that over the past several months they have created the largest election protection program in presidential campaign history, involving integrated legal, communications and political strategies for what they anticipate to be an unprecedented election. The strategies, according to the campaign, are being directed to support election jurisdictions in preparing for and administering the vote under...

WASHINGTON - Democratic insiders are assembling a coalition behind the scenes to wage an all-out war on the Senate filibuster in bullish anticipation of sweeping the 2020 election and passing an ambitious progressive agenda. Veteran party operatives, activist groups and supportive senators are coordinating message and strategy to dial up the pressure to quickly end the 60-vote threshold early next year, fearing that preservation of the rule will enable Republicans to kill Joe Biden’s legislative agenda in its cradle. They’re consolidating that effort under a coalition called Fix Our Senate run by Eli Zupnick, a former communications director for No....

Joe Biden has one thing in common with his running mate, Kamala Harris. He says whatever he thinks he needs to say, on any given issue, depending on who he is talking to at the time.

The inability of the mainstream media to accurately cover any of Joe Biden’s foibles is truly astonishing. If it was not already obvious by now, there is simply nothing Biden can say or do, no matter how incoherent, offensive, or alarming that would cause the current crop of “objective journalists” in the mainstream media, to even consider asking whether or not he has the mental capacity to be president of the United States. It is not a stretch to say that Biden has received the most favorable press coverage of any modern presidential candidate in history, and it’s not even...

This was awkward. Joe Biden arrived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Monday afternoon for a campaign event. The 77-year-old brushed off reporters after he deplaned. A few dozen people (including media) showed up for Biden’s ‘big speech’ on Monday. https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1300491502775402497?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1300491502775402497%7Ctwgr%5E&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2020%2F08%2Fdozen-people-show-outside-bidens-big-speech-pittsburgh-video%2F Joe Biden sounded winded as he read from a teleprompter and blamed Trump for left-wing violence. https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1300492468270632966?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1300492468270632966%7Ctwgr%5E&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2020%2F08%2Fdozen-people-show-outside-bidens-big-speech-pittsburgh-video%2F

Kamala Harris told a friendly crowd of Hollywood donors on Thursday they’d be surprised by how many states she’s visiting daily, if only virtually. Earlier in the week, she’d campaigned before supporters in Minnesota, California and Connecticut, and she was greeting Missouri donors next. Harris hasn’t been on a plane in more than a month. Three weeks after joining Joe Biden as the Democratic vice presidential nominee, the California senator is still campaigning largely in front of a computer screen to relatively small audiences.
