U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez (D-North Bergen) isn’t sure there’s any room left for moderates in the Republican Party. The senator lamented the party’s rightward shift during and after President Donald Trump’s lone term in office. “The nation cannot move forward with a Republican party that is absolutely controlled by Trump, not because of him as the person but because of what he believes in,” Menendez said Wednesday. “When you cannot get Republican members to get an independent commission to investigate the insurrection of Jan. 6, which they lived through and which their comments immediately after called for such an effort.”

Over the last 18 hours or so, this video has been widely shared. If you haven’t already seen it, it opens another window onto Joe Biden’s Many have seen this as another instance of Biden’s weird obsession with little girls. Yes, but I think the truth is worse than that. Biden’s handlers have undoubtedly warned him many times not to act inappropriately toward little girls, but when he goes off-script, as here, he can’t help himself. As indicated, too, by the manner in which he speaks, I think Biden is well into his dotage. Like many elderly people suffering from...

Joe Biden has been slammed for 'creepy' remarks he made about a young girl during a speech at a Virginia military base on Friday. The Commander-in-chief, 78, went off-script to point out the 'elementary school- aged' girl as he delivered an address at Joint Base Langley-Eustis ahead of Memorial Day. 'I love those barrettes in your hair, man,' the President said to the girl, who was sitting at the side of the stage. 'I tell you what, look at her, she looks like she's 19 years old, sitting there like a little lady with her legs crossed,' Biden bizarrely continued....

At ease, Joe.

President Joe Biden mistakenly blamed the “Tuskegee airmen” training program for fueling black American hesitancy about the coronavirus vaccine. “By the way, many of the older members of that community had memories of experimentation on black Americans that were not told about, like what happened, with the, you know, Tuskegee airmen and all those tests,” Biden said. “And so there was a great reluctance.”

Joe Biden is a creature of habit and starts most mornings by lifting weights and watching either CNN's New Day or MSNBC's Morning Joe, a report revealed Monday. While the 78-year-old president lives a generally healthy lifestyle and is typically regimented, he does have quite a sweet tooth. According to interviews by The Washington Post with seven people familiar with Biden's daily routine, some of his favorite treats are orange Gatorade and chocolate chip cookies.

Joe Biden’s first address to a joint session of Congress last night was both a very traditional and untraditional affair, but it was no Donald Trump – in more ways than one. -snip- Biden’s first address to a sparse Congress was one of the least watched in recent history.

John Maynard Keynes is alleged to have said ‘When the facts change, I change my mind — what do you do, sir?’ I am no fan of Keynes generally, but there is something to be said for that pithy ‘second-thoughts’ comment. It pains me to admit it, but the President’s address to the joint session of Congress put me in mind of Keynes’s observation. After all, was it not a rousing address? Even long-time critics acknowledged it. One described it as ‘a perfect blend of strength and empathy’. I have to agree. That same commentator wrote that ‘Tonight, I was...
