President Joe Biden hosted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Thursday, likely marking the last time the two leaders will meet while both are in office, given Biden’s decision not to run again. Biden had denied Netanyahu a White House meeting for nearly a year after the latter won Israel’s elections in November 2022 — an extraordinary snub, motivated by the antipathy Democrats have for Israel’s statesman. They finally met in New York in September 2023, amid talk of a possible Saudi-Israeli peace deal that would have been a major diplomatic accomplishment for Biden. But the...

President Biden will be back at the White House on Tuesday for the first time since he announced he was abandoning his re-election campaign and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris. Biden is scheduled to leave his home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware — where he had been recovering from COVID-19 — in the afternoon and arrive at the Executive Mansion by 2:30 p.m., according to his schedule. The 81-year-old president was originally expected to leave the beach town, where he had been under quarantine, on Monday to hit the campaign trail, but he extended his stay after announcing that he was...

Vice President Kamala Harris will meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House at some point during his visit to the U.S., which began on Monday. President Joe Biden, who has tested positive for coronavirus, is unlikely to make the meeting. Harris has emerged as the likely successor to Biden on the Democratic Party’s presidential ticket in 2024, after the president announced Sunday that he would not continue as the candidate, though he will serve the rest of his term.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre will appear on ABC’s “The View” on Tuesday, days after President Biden’s decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race. The daytime table talk program will host Jean-Pierre for her first interview since Biden announced on Sunday his withdrawal and decision to back Vice President Harris as a potential replacement for the Democratic Party’s nominee. In the days leading to his exiting the race, Biden and his top White House aides faced intensifying questions about the president’s mental health and acuity following a shaky debate performance against former President Trump late last month....

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In response to questions that arose from his supposedly resigning from the race and going missing for several days, the White House revealed that Joe Biden would make an official statement today via Ouija board. "Starting today, the president will answer all questions from the Great Beyond," said black and gay White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who is gay and black. "This is in no way meant to suggest the President is dead or anything. He's totally alive. I just saw him a few minutes ago, I promise." The administration made the announcement in an effort...

oe Biden’s presidency is over. The old man can’t hack it, announcing earlier this afternoon that he’s exiting the race, endorsing Kamala Harris, his vice president, and finishing the rest of his term in isolation. But where is the president? A tweet of his ‘I quit’ letter was released, which did not sit well with many folks, and then nothing. We’re left to speculate what is going on with Joe Biden, and none of it is good. What the hell https://t.co/aOz5gaMyX0— umichvoter 🏳️‍🌈 (@umichvoter) July 21, 2024Frank Biden came forward to say that his brother’s health definitely played a role...

President Biden’s announcement that he was dropping out of the 2024 race stunned a number of White House staffers who believed he would stay the course. Many reportedly learned of the historic news from social media. “We’re all finding out by tweet,” one Democrat close to the matter told Politico. “None of us understand what’s happening.” Biden campaign workers in Delaware, where Biden has been holing up since Wednesday when he was diagnosed with COVID-19, were still operating business as usual right up until the announcement, placing calls to delegates ahead of the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

WASHINTON, DC — President Biden finally admitted this afternoon that he is no longer mentally fit to be President, then assured the nation that he will continue being president. "I have to face reality. My mind isn't what it used to be," President Biden announced Sunday. "I forget things. Sometimes I don't know where I am. Yesterday I mistook a houseplant for Janet Yellen. It's something about her face. So, with a heavy heart, I am announcing that I am no longer fit to be President and will cease campaigning. Still, you can sleep easy knowing I will continue running...

Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) and Ron Wyden (D-OR) are calling on Attorney General Merrick Garland to appoint a special counsel to determine if Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas violated federal ethics and tax laws. In the letter sent to Garland last week, the senators point to news reports revealing that Thomas did not disclose luxury trips or gifts over the past 20 years. Whitehouse and Wyden suggested that Thomas could be in violation of the Ethics in Government Act, which criminalizes a public servant for “knowingly and willfully” failing to file or report gifts and income from outside sources. “The...

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” Biden Campaign Advisory Board member Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) reacted to calls from House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-KY) for White House Physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor to testify on why he met with a Parkinson’s specialist by stating that Comer “attacks scientists and Dr. Fauci,” and “goes from one tinfoil hat conspiracy theory hearing to the next.” And he trusts President Joe Biden. Host Erin Burnett asked, “[Y]ou are also on the House Oversight Committee, so I want to ask you about this, Congressman, the Chairman of your committee, James Comer, is...

Joe Biden’s disastrous June 27 debate has sparked an ongoing meltdown within the Democratic Party that has yet to subside. His ABC News interview didn’t quell any concerns about his mental health. He might have accentuated them with the gross poll denialism exhibited by the president. There have been so many stories about discord, anger, anxiety, and Joe losing his mental faculties that the primary one of concern is getting lost in the noise: who is running the country? The tales of pervasive senility are not new or lost on conservatives; we’ve seen Joe and know he’s half-dead. But an...

Comer questioning if O'Connor's assessments of the president have been improperly influenced by work with Biden family on Americore FIRST ON FOX – House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is demanding that the White House physician appear before Congress to answer questions on President Biden’s "declining mental state," while also revealing that the doctor has been involved in the Biden family’s business dealings. Fox News Digital obtained the letter Comer, R-Ky., sent to Dr. Kevin O’Connor on Sunday. Comer is seeking to question O’Connor, given his "connections" with the Biden family, on whether he is "in a position to provide...

On Saturday’s broadcast of CNN’s “First of All,” Andrea Lawful-Sanders, who hosts WURD’s “The Source,” and recently interviewed President Joe Biden on the show, said that the questions she asked the President were four that she approved from a list of questions that the White House sent to her. While speaking with Lawful-Sanders, and Civic Media’s Earl Ingram, who also interviewed Biden, host Victor Blackwell asked, “Andrea, let me ask you here about your interviews and something — I listened to both of them, and there’s something that’s similar here, you each were — you asked four questions, and maybe...

The President's personal physician and a nurse who coordinates his care scheduled the meetings with Dr. Kevin R. Cannard. Before last July, he had come only once during Joe Biden's administration.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a hotly anticipated announcement, the Biden 2024 Presidential Campaign has just unveiled its exciting new campaign slogan: "Only Senile Some Of The Time." Staffers say that the motto is meant to help redirect growing distrust of the president's failing mental capacities by reminding Americans that Biden is only senile some of the time, rather than suffering from dementia all of the time. "Joe's been catching a bad rap lately, and we just think that people don't realize that he's actually fairly lucid for about three to four hours each day, depending on medications," said Curt Kristoferson,...

Hunter Biden, the former degenerate crackhead and phallus-obsessed prostitute addict with a penchant for racial slurs, was "one of the strongest voices" urging President Joe Biden, 81, to stay in the race during a special family gathering at Camp David over the weekend. Video President Biden has "long leaned on" his 54-year-old baby boy for advice, but senior aides were understandably surprised when Hunter Biden joined them for meetings at the White House this week to discuss the fallout from the debate. For the time being at least, Joe Biden seems determined to take his son's advice and keep running...
