Joe Biden attended a black-tie event at the White House, for governors who were in town for the National Governors Association Winter Meeting. But his confusion seems to be increasing. Even when he has a teleprompter, the speeches are becoming more rambling and disconnected. He spoke to the governors about working together to get things done and he referenced a quote from "the man behind me here." He claimed politics has gotten "too bitter." He made an attempt to quote Abraham Lincoln's "better angels of our nature" remark. It did not go well, and I wonder if he even forgot...

When Republicans are in office, everybody in the MSM is a neuroscientist, psychologist, and oracle capable of and required to opine on the mental fitness of the president and to predict exactly the disastrous consequences of their decisions. When a Democrat is in office, no matter how obvious a Democrat's corruption or disability, it takes a (Left-leaning) "expert" to tell you that what you see before your eyes is false. In that spirit, Americans are being gaslit once again on Joe Biden's obvious lawbreaking, double-dealing, influence peddling, and most importantly his manifest inability to perform his duties as president. That...

We've had a couple of days to digest that damning classified documents investigation report and the Biden administration's disaster of a response to it. This morning I did some browsing around to try to determine where the dust is settling in terms of the White House, the Democrats, the GOP, the media, and even foreign countries. Karen already picked apart what the Biden team's response has been thus far and what will likely happen going forward. That will mostly be nothing aside from optics and cosmetic attempts (in some cases literally) at getting people to forget about it and go...

If the president is too old and demented to be charged, he’s too old and demented to hold the most powerful position in the world.As expected, the panel on “Morning Joe” spent today attacking the devastating special counsel report into Joe Biden’s decades-long hoarding of classified documents. One of the arguments made by John Heilemann and others was that the special counsel could have written the report without referring to Biden as an “elderly man with poor memory.”But he couldn’t have, right? Because then Hur would have been compelled to recommend charges against the president. There is no third choice....

Watching Biden's response to the Hur Special Counsel report was enormously disturbing to me. I wasn't thinking about the exposure of classified documents or the maddening double standard at play in giving Biden a pass. The one thing that ran through my mind all during that speech was one unthinkable question: This man has his finger on the nuclear trigger?At a time when Russian President Vladimir Putin speaks so casually about using nuclear weapons in Ukraine, the thought of Joe Biden having to make a decision about our nuclear deterrent should give every American who isn't a Democratic Party partisan...

Credit: RNC ResearchJoe Biden provided a reprieve from the news surrounding Israel's fight against Hamas on Saturday evening as he delivered a buffet of senility during his latest speech. The president was appearing at the Human Rights Campaign National Dinner when things went downhill. It's worth noting that the HRC is a rabidly anti-Israel (and anti-conservative) organization that has sought to make excuses for Hamas, but regardless, that's not what this piece is about. Rather, we are here to discuss how this man is still president. Biden's brain malfunctions in real-time pic.twitter.com/7flOzpZl31— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) October 14, 2023The crowd does...

Most presidents are fact checked about their policies, few have been fact checked about whether they were awake. Joe Biden has had the most sleeping fact checks of any other president, but that’s because presidents usually don’t fall asleep at major events like visits by foreign leaders or commemorations of mass deaths in a recent natural disaster. Even at the best of times, it’s never that clear whether Biden is awake or asleep. But sometimes he closes his eyes and appears to drift off before stirring awake. And the media rushes in to argue that he wasn’t really asleep. This...

President Joe Biden ascended the podium Monday and joked about chocolate chip ice cream before calling for more gun control in the wake of the Nashville Christian school shooting. He joked about ice cream with the audience in the East Room prior to shifting to talk about the Nashville school attack. Biden said, “We know there are a number of people who did not make it, including children.” He said, “We have to [do] more to stop gun violence. It’s ripping our communities apart, ripping at the very soul of the nation. We have to do more to protect our...

Joe Biden has been roasted online after he appeared lost while walking through the White House lawn as he asked those around him “which way are we going?”.

During his speech, US President Joseph Biden used one word to describe America. However, no one seems to know what it means, not even himself.

President Joe Biden's COVID-19 symptoms 'have improved,' according to a letter the White House released mid-morning Friday provided by Physician to the President, Dr. Kevin O'Connor. O'Connor reported that Biden completed his first full day of the antiviral Paxlovid, after testing positive for COVID-19 on both an antigen and PCR test Thursday morning. 'He did mount a temperature yesterday evening to 99.4 degrees, which responded favorably to acetaminophen (TYLENOL),' the letter said. O'Connor said Biden's symptoms continued to be a runny nose, fatigue - and now a 'loose' cough. 'His voice is deeper this morning. His pulse, blood pressure, respiratory...

ill Biden has said her husband 'had so many hopes' when he got into office, but there were 'problems of the moment' that needed to be addressed first. The First Lady, 71, spoke at a fundraising event for the Democratic National Committee in Nantucket, Massachusetts, on Saturday. '[The President] had so many hopes and plans for things he wanted to do, but every time you turned around, he had to address the problems of the moment,' she told donors at the event. Early on Sunday, President Biden arrived back at the White House from his four-day Middle East tour Joe...

Joe Biden said he is unpopular because Americans are mentally unwell.Of all the excuses…Joe Biden’s poll collapse continues with the latest CIVIQS poll showing the man who we were told got 81 million votes for president just over a year-and-a-half ago now mired in the low thirties in overall approval with just 21 percent of independents approving Biden’s performance in office.Biden’s disapproval at 56 percent ties his worst approval set earlier this year in January and February.As TGP’s Kristinn Taylor reported last week, Biden is underwater in 48 states–with only Hawaii giving him an approval over 50 percent (52) and...

Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Cranberries in a tophat are a delight known only to the people of the plains. Today we’re hitting some things that I’d rather not have to write about, yet feel that I must. The future of this great country is at stake, after all. We had a couple of “senior moment” stories yesterday involving people in the upper echelons of power in this country. It’s not pretty, but it can’t be ignored. Those of us here on the reality-based side of the aisle are duty-bound to acknowledge when things are amiss. The first...

WASHINGTON, D.C—The White House grounds have entered a lockdown following the sighting of a senile old man wandering around waving a gun and making outlandish demands. "Look folks, no more automatic weapons! You hear me, I'm serious! And no more gramblegrawp!" said the old, confused man while pointing his gun at everyone. "I traveled 1700 miles, million miles, so c'mon and listen up! Ghost guns are banned. No Congress needed." Witnesses claim that while the man appeared to be well-dressed, he had no clue who or where he was. "He kept asking 'where's First Lady Kamala' and asking why's nobody...

Iconic American televangelist Pat Robertson - who famously predicted an asteroid would hit the Earth after Donald Trump was reelected in 2020 - came out of retirement Monday to say Russian President Vladimir Putin was being 'compelled by God' to invade Ukraine. 'I think you can say, well, Putin's out of his mind,' Robertson, 91, said during a special appearance on his old show, the Christian Broadcasting Network's The 700 Club, of the Russian president's decision to invade the neighboring nation. 'And yes, maybe so,' the aging voice of conservative Christianity - who boasts an estimated net worth between $200m...

I keep harping on the obvious, but Grandpa Badfinger is getting worse. The other day he was sharing with the baffled pontiff some sort of story about Satchel Paige.

Biden landed at Fort McNair at about 9:05 PM ET and took a motorcade back to the White House, arriving 15 minutes later. The president was originally scheduled to return on Wednesday. But amid a growing chorus of criticism for his relative silence about Afghanistan and his absence from his main place of work while the country fell apart, the president decided to head back early. The White House had earlier Tuesday called a "lid," meaning no further movements or events were expected, so it appears the decision to return was made hastily during the afternoon. Biden briefly returned to...
