The incident happened in the West Wing conference room early Monday morning, where witnesses said former President Joe Biden arrived bright-eyed and bushy-tailed to attend the staff meeting at the start of the new week. "He was in a chipper mood and ready to get to work," one White House insider said. "He was shaking everyone's hands and cracking jokes about the football games he watched yesterday like it was just another Monday morning....

Kamala Harris is so lost and confused that she needs help completing a simple briefing with the assistance of her handlers. Even worse, she cannot keep it a secret anymore.

A California-based transgender Lutheran pastor said the Bible 'wasn't written for 2024' and intends to make a more inclusive ministry for the LGBTQ+ community. Ordained minister Drew Stever, who identifies as a transgender man, works for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Hope Lutheran Church in Hollywood. He says the notion that God created two genders that are clearly defined in the Bible is outdated. 'It's hard to relate it to modern-day time because it wasn't written for 2024, it was written for them. 'When we read in the scripture that God created man and woman, yes, and God created...

While appearing on CNN’s The Source with Kaitlin Collins, Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized former President Donald Trump’s recent public appearances, saying he’s “lost a step.”“Sometimes you get the feeling that Trump’s heart isn’t in this anymore, the laziness of his attacks, not to mention the, again, lack of any coherent account of what he’s actually going to do to make Americans lives better,” Buttigieg said. “You can just tell that he’s lost a step. You know, he’s getting mushy or fuzzy or more confused.” Discussing a Thursday press conference Trump held, after which he was accused of rambling...

Nearly 60 percent of President Joe Biden’s supporters do not subscribe to the biological reality of male and female, a new Pew Research Center survey found. Fifty-nine percent of Biden voters say “whether a person is a man or a woman can be different from sex assigned at birth,” compared to 39 percent who say “gender” is “determined by sex assigned at birth.” Broken down by subgroups, Biden supporters without college degrees (47 percent) are more likely than those with degrees (30 percent) to believe in biological reality, according to the poll. In contrast, only 29 percent of young Biden...

A confused-looking President Biden paced back and forth behind King Abdullah II of Jordan Monday, apparently unsure of where to stand ahead of the royal’s remarks. “Your majesty, over to you,” Biden, 81, told the king after welcoming him to the White House. As Abdullah prepared to deliver his speech, the president shuffled around behind him and the podium, gazing down at the floor as if looking for a mark indicating the proper place for him to stand. Biden waffled between two different spots before settling on what was initially his first choice, to Abdullah’s left side and in front...

DEAR ABBY: I’m a lesbian. My wife and I have been married for nine years, but since COVID and my mother’s death, we have had problems. I met a man online; he’s an actor. We grew close via the internet. When my wife found out, we fought, and this man and I haven’t been as close. Although we mended our relationship and I love her, I seem to always wonder. About a year ago, I got hit on by another actor on Instagram, and we also grew close until my wife found out. I stopped, but I still maintain contact...

Motorists in Oregon are expressing excitement and confusion after a 72-year ban on self-serve gasoline pumps was lifted on Friday. Across the Beaver State, drivers took to social media to boast of pumping their own gas, while local new outlets published step-by-step instructions to help bewildered first-timers. The change came after Governor Tina Kotek signed a bill allowing people across the state to choose between having an attendant pump gas or doing it themselves. The law took immediate effect. That leaves New Jersey as the only US state that prohibits motorists from pumping their own gas. A few countries also...

Some of America’s red and swing states (purple) may have gotten less Republican during the pandemic. That’s according to 2020-21 U.S. Census data cited by real estate outlet Redfin in a recent report. The main reason is increasing diversity in areas that are typically whiter, Redfin reports. The data shows that more people moved into red and purple (“swing”) counties in key states last year than in any year in a decade. Redfin explains “key” states are “states in which either candidate has a shot at winning in the upcoming Senate elections.” Census statistics show white voters are historically more...

If a week is a long time in politics, 24-hours can seem like an eternity, especially when a White House administration is confused by basic historical facts. U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris amply illustrated this Thursday when she ended her four-day trip to Asia with a journey to the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) dividing the Korean Peninsula. During the stop she confused onlooks by asserting the United States has a “strong alliance” with “the Republic of North Korea.”

President Joe Biden appeared meandering and confused during a White House event on Monday celebrating the Atlanta Braves and their World Series victory in 2021. After the president finished speaking, the team presented him with a team jersey with his name on it. “Well folks, guess we’re going to do something now, that is uh … a reception,” he said to the team, who remained in position for the photo. When the group reminded him that they had to take a few pictures first, Biden agreed but held his jersey folded up at his waist as the cameras clicked. The...

Godless, demonic supporters of anarchy, haters of modernity combined with a fallacious sense of self-worth – there are none whom this better describes than Democrats and all of their various hellish conjugations. Conjugations that include but are not limited to Marxists, neo-Leninists and Fabian democratic socialists. Each and every one of these radical demonic social philosophies hates with a passion Jews and those who subscribe to being a crayon color as the highest elevation of self-worth. Regardless of where you find them, they are Erebusic marplots and pernicious liars whose energy is spent on destruction and divisiveness at the expense...

On Oct. 21, 1984, President Ronald Reagan was asked to give a summation as to why he should be re-elected at the end of his debate with Democratic challenger Walter Mondale. His meandering, unfocused response kicked off speculation that he was suffering from cognitive decline that only intensified in his second term. Here is part of it: “Several years ago, I was given an assignment to write a letter. It was to go into a time capsule and would be read in 100 years when that time capsule was opened. “I remember driving down the California coast one day. My...
