No "Stopping the Steal" with Democrat power-brokers. In 2020 they decided that a dead husk of a moth-eaten sock puppet served their purposes, and in rapid succession forced out Bernie, Fauxcahontas, the gay guy, the sensible-shoes gal and the rest of the gang, and forced the dead husk in. Four years later they have decided the husk is a little too dead, and so... So Biden gets served the Ultimate Anyway, and we are now supposed to get excited about which white-male governors in the Democrat Party are willing to challenge the first female... first black... first "Asian-American"... first Montreal...

What a disgraceful end to a disgraceful presidency. Rather than exit this presidential race with dignity, rather than show long-suffering Americans the respect we deserve, President Joe Biden hastily declared he's out — on social media. Joe Biden's ghosted us!...Biden has humiliated himself, the nation, the Democratic elites, megadonors and liberal-media enablers who spent years covering for him. And he didn't even initially endorse his Vice President! Someone had to clean up Aisle 9 on X with a hasty follow-up Kamala endorsement tweet.... Why didn't Biden, like LBJ before him, announce his monumental decision to stand down during a primetime...

The question of whether Joe Biden could hold out against political pressure from the media, donors, Obama and influential figures across the party has been answered. He couldn’t. The donor coup succeeded. Democracy is dead, long live democracy. His campaign people had kept insisting that he was running until the last minute when his account tweeted a statement that he was abandoning his campaign. The whole seemed reminiscent of the palace coup against Japan’s Emperor Hirohito after the bomb dropped. Clearly there were multiple factions at work, but the power players, led by the party’s donors, won out and Biden,...

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

REHOBOTH, Del. — As President Joe Biden faces a wave of new calls from elected officials to end his re-election bid, his political allies are actively exploring ways to publicly demonstrate he still has widespread support among key elements of the Democratic Party’s base, according to three Democrats familiar with the discussions. In some cases, the demonstrations of support are organic, coming from organizations and constituencies that are concerned the party infighting is hurting their goal of defeating Donald Trump. They include Black clergy members, as well as Latino community leaders and progressive activists to show grassroots support for the...

Pass the Torch, a new grassroots group calling for Biden to step out of the 2024 presidential race, held a rally outside the White House on Saturday. “Thank you, Joe; it’s time to go!” the group chanted outside the gates. Organizers say approximately 100 people were in attendance. President Biden has faced intense pressure from members of his own party to forfeit the Democratic nomination since his disastrous debate performance at the end of June. As of Saturday, 35 Democrats have publicly called for Biden to step aside. In a statement issued before the rally, Pass the Torch explained their...

President Joe Biden is reportedly fed up with his pals, former President Barack Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi over what many are calling a coup d’état within the Democratic Party’s nomination process. Several people close to Biden told the New York Times on Friday that the embattled president sees Pelosi as “the main instigator” and Obama as “the puppet master behind the scenes” in efforts to remove him from the 2024 race. Biden’s anger seems to be triggered by a plethora of leaks and stories from anonymous sources suggesting he has considered passing the torch to a successor,...

Perhaps the toxic combination of dementia and casual racism will serve as the impetus for Democrats to finally cast Old Joe aside. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Joe Biden sat down for an interview and announced that he had given an interview to BET News stating that he would reconsider his decision to run if a doctor diagnosed him with a “medical condition.” “If I had some medical condition that emerged, if somebody, if doctors came to me and said, you got this problem and that problem,” Biden told interviewer Ed Gordon. But the interview quickly turned into a total...

If you need help, and if you can find them...

MILWAUKEE — President Biden repeatedly scolded NBC anchor Lester Holt in an interview Monday — exclaiming at one point, “What’s with you guys? Come on, man!” — as he defended his criticism of Donald Trump despite calling on Americans to “lower the temperature” after the assassination attempt on the former president Saturday. The 81-year-old president lashed out when Holt pressed him on his disastrous June 27 debate performance and bristled when the journalist asked him about former Trump’s running mate J.D. Vance. “Are you seeing what [viewers] saw, which was moments of frankly, that appeared to be — you appeared...

Stick a fork in Joe Biden. He's done. After the recent turmoil his party went through after the debate, which significantly damaged his candidacy and prompted calls for him to drop out, Democratic strategists who spoke with NBC News on Sunday say that now the failed assassination attempt on Donald Trump most certainly was the true end of his hopes of getting reelected. "We're so beyond f---ed," lamented a longtime Democratic insider, emphasizing that the image of Trump thrusting his fist in the air, blood dramatically smeared across his face, will be an unforgettable image between now and Election Day....

n the same way that Joe Biden thinks “What would Hunter suggest?” when he wonders about staying in office, whenever I enter a voting booth, I always think, “What would George Clooney do?” Those of us who rely on Hollywood actors for our political views don’t get them often enough. So how very lucky were those of us on the Biden-Harris email list last month when we got a personalized email from Clooney himself. “It’s George Clooney,” it opened. How the heart sang. George Clooney is emailing me! This very personal message went on, “I’m not exaggerating when I say...

As Joe Biden took to the stage for a rally in Detroit, Michigan, on Friday evening, one of the most raucous crowds seen in recent years at any event for the US president chanted: "Don't you quit!" The presumptive Democratic nominee was greeted by deafening cheers from hundreds of supporters as he vowed: "I am running! And I'm gonna win!" As he left the stage, the strains of Tom Petty's hit I Won't Back Down washed over the high school gymnasium, an implicit rebuff to the growing list of elected members of his party exhorting him to step aside amid...

"In an effort to improve his poll numbers, Biden will be sporting a new hair style."https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4250490/posts?page=135#135

CNN’s MJ Lee reported on Thursday afternoon President Joe Biden’s advisors in the White House are beating “the sh*t out” of Democrats who are stepping out of line.Asked by anchor Jake Tapper to expand on reports that Democrats are “furious with Biden advisors,” Lee obliged.

Given the Democrats’ past procedural competence, it’s hard to tell if they’ve really gotten themselves in a corner or if they still have several aces up their sleeves. For the past 3 years, I’ve felt something was amiss with the Democrats and their bench strength. For a team that plays to win, no matter what, they seemed to have burned all their boats without regard to future possibilities. As I wrote in February: It became apparent three years ago [ed: That is, 2021] that Biden would not be able to run in 2024 due to age-related issues. It was even...

"...I wouldn't have picked vice president Trump to be vice president because I think she was not qualified to be President..." Yes he said that!!

On Thursday evening, Joe Biden held what was widely dubbed his "big boy" press conference... It was a rough start, for sure... Of course, the speech was irrelevant. The questions and answers are what matter and it didn't go very well. For starters, his "big boy" press conference was made up of pre-approved reporters. In response to the first question, which was about Kamala Harris's ability to serve if he doesn't, he said, "I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be Vice President if she wasn't qualified to be president." Joe Biden even seemed to think somebody else is...

In a question from Reuters on the future of his candidacy, President Biden stumbled in his response by calling Vice President Kamala Harris "Vice President Trump."

President Joe Biden introduced Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as 'President Putin' in a brutal gaffe at the NATO summit with his political future hanging by a thread. The 81-year-old facing mounting calls to drop out of the presidential race said: 'Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin.' The major flub in front of world leaders sparked gasps and those in the room had to shout the correct name. 'No, we're going to beat Putin,' Biden said. His gaffe came in front of world allies who had joined him for the announcement and shortly before his make-or-break press conference, where his performance will...
