CNN cut away from Joe Biden after he got in a female reporter’s face, suggested he’s not mentally stable and claimed he can “beat the hell” out of Jake Tapper. 82-year-old Biden delivered remarks at a Memorial Day Event in New Castle, Delaware, on Friday. This is the first time Biden has spoken publicly since his cancer diagnosis. Or rather, since Biden admitted he has metastatic cancer. Medical experts believe Biden may have been suffering from prostate cancer for years. Of course, Biden made the Memorial Day speech about himself and implied his son, Beau, died while serving in Iraq....

Joe Biden is back! 82-year-old Biden delivered remarks at a Memorial Day Event in New Castle, Delaware, on Friday. This is the first time Biden has spoken publicly since his cancer diagnosis.

Democratic Delaware Gov. Matt Meyer signed a bill May 20 legalizing assisted suicide in the state, supporting deadly legislation that the previous governor had vetoed. The state’s House Bill 140 makes it legal for adults given six months or fewer to live — a prognosis that is not always accurate — to request deadly drugs from their physicians to kill themselves. The legislation had previously failed in September 2024 when the state’s then-Governor John Carney, a Catholic, vetoed it. When he vetoed it, Carney said he is “fundamentally and morally opposed to state law enabling someone, even under tragic and...

Delaware Democrat Gov. Matt Meyer signed a bill on Tuesday legalizing physician-assisted suicide for terminally ill patients given six months or less to live. Meyers claimed the measure, called the End-of-Life Options Act, is about “compassion, dignity, and respect for personal choice.” The bill, which will take effect next year, allows those patients to request a prescription to self-administer and end their lives, Fox News Digital reported. “We’re acknowledging today that even in the last moments of life, compassion matters,” Meyer said at the bill signing. “Every Delawarean should have the right to face their final chapter with peace, dignity,...

After over a decade’s worth of effort and contentious battles within the state legislature, Gov. Matt Meyer signs legislation to legalize medical aid in dying, making Delaware the 12th jurisdiction to do so. The bill allows terminally ill adults with no more than a six-month death prognosis to explore end-of-life options, commonly referred to as physician-assisted suicide. Former State Rep. Paul Baumbach championed the legislation right up until his retirement last year, when he got the bill through the House and Senate for the first time, only to see it vetoed by former Gov. John Carney. “The issue of autonomy...

In an exclusive and remarkably candid interview - the first since he left office - Joe Biden discusses what he really thinks of his successor's first 100 days, plus his fears for the future if the Atlantic Alliance collapses It is hard to believe that the man I greet in the Delaware hotel where he launched his political career more than half a century ago was the "leader of the free world" little over 100 days ago. Joe Biden is still surrounded by all the trappings of power – the black SUVs, the security guys with curly earpieces, the sniffer...

U.S. drugmaker Merck (MRK.N), said on Tuesday it is investing $1 billion in a new Delaware plant to expand domestic production as it prepares to deal with President Donald Trump's tariffs. The new facility will produce biologic drugs and Keytruda, becoming Merck's first in-house U.S. site to make the blockbuster cancer treatment, the company said. Merck said last week its biggest tariff exposure is through Keytruda and it has enough U.S. inventory for this year. It estimated $200 million in additional costs for the levies implemented to date. The company expects labs at the new facility to be fully operational...

Delaware’s new Governor has dismissed Texas and Nevada's attempts to steal companies incorporated in The First State. Matt Meyer, just two months into office, has already made significant changes to the state's corporate laws, including limiting shareholders’ ability to sue company founders. The rapid changes are an attempt to stem the tide of companies leaving Delaware to incorporate in other states — dubbed 'Dexit' — but critics argue it merely makes the state friendlier to billionaires. Tesla threatened to leave the state when Tesla was sued over the hefty pay package for Elon Musk. More than 60 percent of the...

Joe Biden’s time as president was truly a sleeper. Biden, 82, took more time off than any other US president in modern history, spending 577 of his 1,463 days in office – or 39% of his presidency — on vacation, according to shocking new data compiled by the Republican National Committee. The average American — who gets 11 paid vacation days a year — would have to work 52 years to rack up as much down time as Biden scored in his four years.

Sen. Chris Coons says “it’s smart” to spend $20M to produce Sesame Street in Iraq. "It's a show that helps teach values, helps teach public health, helps prevent kids from dying from dysentery and disease..”

On CNN This Morning, Jonathan Kott, a DC lobbyist and former aide to senators Chris Coons (D-Del.) and Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), predicted that Trump supporters will give him six to eight months, but then "turn quickly" on him when the improvements in their lives he promised don't materialize. That's soothing speculation for CNN's base, but Kott's powers of prognostication have a questionable track record. Less than two months before the 2024 election, here's what Kott, in a Fox News appearance, predicted: "I think voters are still getting to know Kamala Harris. And she's introducing herself. And the more she does,...

The reconstruction of USAID from an independent terrorist and international leftist funding entity to a subsidiary of the State Department has Democrats involved in the foreign policy apparatus freaking out and desperately trying to get Americans to care.Here’s Sen. Chris Coons, former ‘bearded Marxist’, taking his best shot at it in the paper of big government.Trump’s attack on USAID is an assault on Americans’ safety – Washington PostCoons claims that “USAID’s programs, like all our foreign assistance, play a central role in combating extremism, promoting stability and protecting our homeland.”The reality is USAID had us sending $600 million to Pakistan,...

Remember last year when an activist Delaware judge invalidated Elon Musk's compensation package at Tesla--twice--despite it having been overwhelmingly approved by stockholders--twice? The compensation package was unconventional--he wouldn't get paid unless he delivered extraordinary results. He multiplied the value of the company by 10x. Which is shareholders approved the package--he made them extremely wealthy, and they rewarded him by making him even wealthier. He put it all on the line, performed, and the judge took it all away and gave a bunch of it to lawyers. The judge was, by the way, closely tied to the Biden crime family. Delaware,...

Delaware is facing a further exodus of tech companies amid reports that Meta and Dropbox are moving out of the state. Newsweek has contacted Meta and Dropbox for comment via email. Why It Matters Delaware has long been considered a business-friendly state due to its corporate tax advantages, and is home to multiple large companies. However, backlash against the First State has intensified after Delaware Judge Kathaleen McCormick ruled that Tesla CEO Elon Musk's record-breaking $56 billion compensation package was excessive. Musk, who has become increasingly influential in both the political and corporate world, urged companies to pull out of...

A Delaware judge has reaffirmed her ruling that Tesla must revoke Elon Musk’s multibillion-dollar pay package Chancellor Kathaleen St. Jude McCormick on Monday denied a request by attorneys for Musk and Tesla’s corporate directors to vacate her ruling earlier this year requiring the company to rescind the unprecedented pay package. McCormick also rejected an equally unprecedented and massive fee request by plaintiff attorneys, who argued that they were entitled to legal fees in the form of Tesla stock valued at more than $5 billion. The judge said the attorneys were entitled to a fee award of $345 million. The rulings...

A blistering new report is claiming that Sen.Chuck Schumer was literally crying after some political posturing. ... Schumer met with Biden on July 13 (just a little over a week before Biden formally withdrew) and the agenda was simple: convince Joe Biden to withdraw from his re-election bid. “If there were a secret ballot among Democratic senators, Mr. Schumer would tell the president, no more than five would say he should continue running,” ... Biden was apparently kept in the dark about his re-election chances by his own team. ... Schumer couched his pleas with a veiled threat. “If you...

A thin-skinned Liz Cheney could not help herself in firing back at President Trump on Friday over his savage remarks regarding the medal she received from Joe Biden and ended up making a huge error in the process. As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Biden awarded the second-highest civilian medal to 20 individuals on Thursday. These included the leaders of the January 6th select committee, Cheney and Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), along with two of his longtime friends/cronies, former Senators Ted Kaufman (D-DE) and Chris Dodd (D-CT). The award, known as the Presidential Citizens Medal, is generally given to Americans...

US President Joe Biden reportedly regrets withdrawing from this year’s presidential race, expressing confidence that he could have defeated Donald Trump in last month’s election despite polling that suggested otherwise, according to White House sources quoted in a newly published Washington Post profile. The President has also expressed dissatisfaction with his decision to appoint Merrick Garland as attorney general. Biden is said to believe that Garland was slow to prosecute Trump for his role in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riots while presiding over a Justice Department that aggressively pursued charges against Biden’s son, Hunter. Biden announced his withdrawal from...

On Tuesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) said that “As a father, I can understand” President Joe Biden’s “reasoning, given this change in circumstances” for pardoning his son, Hunter and argued that Biden went back on his prior vows that he would not pardon his son due to some of the nominations that President-Elect Donald Trump put forward, and “I am concerned about what’s going to happen to the scope of the pardon power going forward.” Coons said that he thinks the nominations of Kash Patel and Matt Gaetz and the lack of stringent opposition...
