Joe Biden’s Lies Never Stop

Joe Biden’s Lies Never Stop© Provided by America Insider

President Joe Biden’s lies never stop.

During a prepared speech, Biden falsely claimed that he convinced former Senator Strom Thurmond to vote for the Civil Rights Act.

In reality, Strom Thurmond voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Moreover, Joe Biden was only 21 years old and wasn’t even in Congress. (Poll: Is Joe Biden Healthy Enough to be President? VOTE)

Former doctor for the Obama administration, Ronny Jackson, says Biden isn’t mentally capable of handling the duties of the presidency.

Biden is the oldest president in U.S. history at 80 and he will be 82 if re-elected to a second term.

“Pause for just a moment. I thought things had changed,” Biden said during the speech. “I was able to literally, not figuratively, talk Strom Thurmond into voting for the Civil Rights Act before he died.”

“And I thought, ‘Well maybe there’s real progress,’ But hate never dies. It just hides, it hides under the rocks,” he said.

Thurmond opposed both the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

Thurmond also holds the record for the longest-ever filibuster opposing while opposing the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

Fact-Checking Biden

Left-wing fact-check articles and the White House came rushing to Biden’s defense by explaining what he “meant” to say.

Instead, Biden lied by referring to the Civil Rights Act, which Thurmond opposed twice.

Whatever Biden meant, it’s becoming increasingly clear to American voters that Biden seems confused about what planet he’s on.

Obama’s former White House doctor said Biden “looks tired, he looks weak, he looks confused, he’s incoherent, and it sends a message of weakness all over the world, and they’re seizing up on that.”

“These aren’t gaffes,” Dr. Jackson said about Biden’s constant mental lapses in public. “This is something much more serious.”

“The whole country is seeing his mental cognitive issues on display for over a year now, and there’s really no question in most people’s minds that there’s something going on with him, that he’s not cognitively the same as he used to be and, in my mind, not fit to be our president right now,” Jackson argued.

“Every time he gets up and talks to the American people, it’s not just the American people that are watching him speak, it’s the whole world, and that’s part of what the problem is here,” he continued.

“He’s got 40 years of tape, you can go back and look at this man, so it’s not like we don’t have anything to compare it to,” Jackson said. “You can go back and look, he’s always made gaffes, he’s always made missteps, but never like this. This is something different. These aren’t gaffes. This is something much more serious.”

Key Takeaways:

• During a speech, President Joe Biden falsely claimed that he convinced former Senator Strom Thurmond to vote for the Civil Rights Act, despite the fact that Thurmond voted against it and Biden was not even in Congress at the time.

The Bombshell Email That Will End Joe Biden

The Bombshell Email That Will End Joe Biden© Provided by America Insider

It appears that Americans are on the verge of seeing “smoking-gun evidence” that Joe Biden actively engaged in an illegal bribery scheme that raked in millions for his family.

A bombshell email from Biden’s alias “Robert L. Peters” in 2016 may ultimately end his career.

The email was sent to his son Hunter Biden about Ukraine and includes an attachment with his schedule at the time. Then-vice president Biden’s schedule showed he spoke by phone to then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. (Poll: Do You Trust Joe Biden? VOTE)

A lawsuit was filed by the Southeastern Legal Foundation to compel the National Archives to turn over the emails containing Joe Biden’s fake alias “Robert Peters.”

Biden’s email aliases, which included “Robert Peters,” “Robin Ware,” and “JRB Ware,” were used to share government information and discuss business with Hunter Biden and associates. Republicans have discovered roughly 5,400 emails and records pertaining to Biden’s email aliases.

Evidence Against Biden

The explosive testimony of Joe and Hunter Biden’s longtime family friend and business partner Devon Archer revealed that they were required to get help “regarding the Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin.” Both Hunter and Devon sat on the board of Burisma.

“He was a threat,” Archer said about Shokin. “He ended up seizing assets of [Burisma owner] Nikolai [Zlochevsky] — a house, some cars, a couple properties. And Nikolai actually never went back to Ukraine after Shokin seized all of his assets.”

Shokin won a court order on Feb. 2, 2016 and seized Zlochevsky’s property. Shokin was fired roughly two months later on March 29. Biden later bragged that he demanded that Ukraine fire Shokin or else the U.S. would withhold $1 billion in aid.

“Well, son of a b****. He got fired,” Biden said gleefully. A reliable FBI informant also said Burisma CEO Zlochevsky paid off the Bidens with $10,000,000 for this service.

When asked if Joe Biden or Hunter Biden received bribes, Shokin said, “My firm personal conviction is that, yes, this was the case.”

“They were being bribed. And the fact that Joe Biden gave away $1 billion in U.S. money in exchange for my dismissal, my firing — isn’t that alone a case of corruption?” he asked.

Democrats notoriously impeached former President Donald Trump on far less in December 2019. Democrats claimed Trump allegedly threatened to withhold military aid and a White House meeting from Ukraine if the country failed to investigate corruption within its government.

Democrats claimed this was “abuse of power and obstruction of Congress,” which led to his impeachment on December 18, 2019. (Poll: Do You Stand With Donald Trump? VOTE)

In comparison, Biden has openly admitted to threatening to withhold aid while his son raked in millions as part of an international influence-peddling scheme.

For years, President Biden has repeatedly denied any involvement in his son’s shady overseas business dealings.

“Archer testified that Hunter Biden put then-Vice President Joe Biden on the speakerphone during business meetings, over 20 times. Archer testified that Joe Biden was put on the phone to sell ‘the brand,'” the report found.

Key Takeaways:

• There are allegations that Joe Biden engaged in an illegal bribery scheme, with evidence from a bombshell email sent by his alias “Robert L. Peters” in 2016.

• The email discusses Ukraine and includes Biden’s schedule, showing a phone call with the Ukrainian president.

• Biden bragged about his involvement in firing Victor Shokin. In return, Burisma’s CEO paid the Bidens $10 million.

Viktor Shokin Drops Bombshell On Joe and Hunter Biden

During an appearance on Fox News, former Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin said President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden accepted bribes from his country.

“I have said repeatedly in my previous interviews that Poroshenko fired me at the insistence of the then-Vice President Biden because I was investigating Burisma,” Shokin said through a translator.

Democrats as well as left-wing “fact-check” articles, including one from CNN, have claimed that Shokin was not investigating Burisma or considered a threat to the company. (Poll: Is Joe Biden Fit to be President? VOTE)

“Well, son of a b****. He got fired,” Biden said gleefully. A reliable FBI informant also said Burisma CEO Zlochevsky paid off the Bidens with $10,000,000 for this service.

“You understood me correctly. This is how it was,” Shokin told Fox News. “There were no complaints whatsoever and no problems with how I was performing at my job. But because pressure was repeatedly put on Poroshenko, that is what ended up in him firing me.”

When asked if Joe Biden or Hunter Biden received bribes, Shokin said, “My firm personal conviction is that, yes, this was the case.”

The Joe Biden Corruption Disaster Has Finally Exploded

Joe Biden Is In a World of Trouble Now - In 2019, after having survived the absurd (and baseless) Robert Mueller-led special counsel investigation into claims that Donald Trump had conspired with Russian intelligence to steal the 2016 Presidential Election from Hillary Clinton, the House Democrats subjected then-President Trump to an overhyped impeachment. 

The reason that House Democrats impeached Trump was because of a phone call the forty-fifth president had with his counterpart in Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

In the conduct of that call, according to a whistleblower on the White House National Security Council (NSC), who was part of the call, it is alleged that Trump demanded an illegal quid quo pro from Zelenskyy. 

Trump would give Ukraine congressionally authorized lethal aid only if Zelenskyy dug up dirt on the man that many assumed would be Trump’s Democratic Party challenger in the 2020 Presidential Election, Joe Biden. 

The impeachment went nowhere fast. 

Yet, the accusation that Trump abused his position to seek an illicit reciprocal, political agreement with Ukraine’s leadership was a serious one. Of course, the seriousness of such charges only ever appears to be used against Republican leaders. 

After all, there is ample evidence to prove that Joe Biden, while serving as the vice-president in the Obama Administration, did something similar with Ukraine.

Joe Biden is Corrupt

Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, served as a consultant on the board of the Ukrainian natural gas company, Burisma, from 2013-2018, in which Hunter earned around $11 million for services rendered (although it remains a great mystery as to what services outside of influence-peddling Hunter Biden provided the firm). 

During his time on the board, Hunter Biden’s presence became a lightning rod of controversy. His time on the board also overlapped with the Ukrainian federal prosecutor’s office investigating the head of Burisma, Mykola Zlochevsky, for corruption charges.

Zlochevsky is the man who initially brought Hunter Biden into the firm. It was Zlochevsky who testified under oath that Joe Biden was directly involved with business transactions that his firm and Hunter Biden had engaged in. 

In 2016, just as Viktor Shokin, who was serving as the Ukrainian prosecutor general, was edging closer to uncovering the truth of Zlochevsky’s corruption, he was unceremoniously fired by then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. 

With his firing, the entire corruption investigation evaporated. Had the investigation gone forward under Shokin’s leadership, though, the world might have learned of the alleged depths of corruption that Hunter and Joe Biden had sunk to in their dealings with Zlochevsky. According to Joe Biden himself, while speaking to the Council on Foreign Relations in 2018, he was tasked as vice-president to ensure that a $1 billion loan was granted to Ukraine.

When he arrived in Ukraine to hand over the money, Biden insisted President Poroshenko fire Shokin. Poroshenko resisted by telling Biden that the vice-president had no authority to countermand the wishes of both President Obama or Congress. 

Biden then goaded Poroshenko to call Obama for clarification. Biden then furthered his hardball play by telling Poroshenko that he was set to leave Ukraine in six hours and if Shokin wasn’t fired within that time, the money would not be coming. 

As Joe Biden proudly recounted, “Well, son of *****, he got fired!” The money was quickly released to Ukraine and “they put in place someone who was solid” in the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office. 

Because of that move, though, the Biden Family’s corruption was not fully revealed when it should have been, giving Joe Biden a clear shot at the White House in 2020, free of proof that he was involved in a major illicit, international influence-peddling scheme. 

Now the old accusations are returning to the surface, thanks in large part to the steady investigation that the House Republicans have subjected the Biden Family to, since the Republicans took their narrow majority in the House after the 2022 Midterm Elections. 

Going After Joe Biden

Recently, Viktor Shokin recorded an interview with Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade, in which he reiterated his claims that Biden had him fired in 2016, not because Shokin was refusing to prosecute corrupt Ukrainian politicians. Instead, Shokin insists that Biden maneuvered Shokin’s ouster because the prosecutor was too close to uncovering the truth of the Biden Family’s corruption in Ukraine. 

Shokin claims that had he been allowed to complete his investigation, he’d have taken down Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, and Hunter’s business partner, Devon Archer. Shokin believed that Burisma illegally produced, sold, and utilized natural gas. 

With the pressure on him, Zlochevsky turned to Devon Archer and Hunter Biden to “call DC” (in other words, to phone then-Vice-President Joe Biden) to put the kibosh on Shokin’s investigation. It is not only Shokin who alleges this. Indeed, both Zlochevsky admitted to this as did Devon Archer in his testimony to Congress a month ago. 

So, we have an alleged but what looks like documented case of quid pro quo being illegally deployed by the former vice-president-turned-president, Joe Biden. Despite the evidence outlining the crime—including Joe Biden’s own public admission—there is little controversy in the press. 

Making Joe Biden Pay

Hardly anything is being done to make the Bidens pay for their perfidy. Even the House Republican investigation, which has amassed an unbelievable amount of evidence showing wrongdoing by Hunter Biden (and possibly his father) has not yet moved to impeach the forty-sixth president in the way that the House Democrats impeached Trump. 

It should be clear to all but the most rank partisans that Joe Biden helped to cover up his son’s wrongdoing in Ukraine by using his power as vice-president to get the prosecutor leading the investigation fired. 

Now is the time to make Joe Biden pay a political price for his alleged wrongdoings.

Despite years of Biden family and media disinformation, we are finally learning that President Joe Biden really did fire Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin for looking into state corruption involving the oil company Burisma and Hunter Biden — and ultimately Joe Biden himself.

Victor Davis Hanson© Provided by Tribune Content Agency

As vice president, Biden, in his own words, bragged that he had threatened to cancel the deliverance of American foreign aid to Ukraine unless Shokin was dismissed.

So what is Congress to do now — un-impeach and exonerate an innocent impeached Donald Trump, and instead impeach a guilty Biden for essentially the same allegations?

After all, the Left redefined the impeachment bar in 2019 as leveraging foreign aid to Ukraine to benefit one’s political career.

And that is exactly what Joe Biden did to ensure his son could continue to raise millions for the Biden family with foreign governments, while being shielded from political consequences.

An impeached Trump also was accused of using the power of government to go after his likely 2020 presidential rival by suggesting that Joe Biden and his family were corrupt, and should be investigated by Ukrainian officials for fraud and bribery.

Despite Joe Biden’s denials, Trump was right: there was plenty of evidence to link Ukrainian unwarranted payoffs going into Biden family coffers.

So Trump in 2019 had good reasons to ensure that none of the Bidens were still burrowed deeply into the Ukrainian payoff machine.

In contrast, Biden had far less grounds to unleash the full powers of government against his probable 2024 rival ex-president Trump.

Special Prosecutor Jack Smith is not charging Trump with bribery of the Biden sort. He does not allege that Trump gave special foreign policy preferences for those foreigners who paid his family for such services.

Instead, Smith argues that Trump unlawfully took out classified presidential papers —although Joe Biden did nearly the same.

Biden kept quiet about his vast removal of classified documents for over a decade. Not until Trump was being investigated did Biden suddenly notify the government of his illegal removals.

In contrast, a combative and boisterous Trump fought openly and constantly with federal archivists over which of his papers at his Mar-a-Lago estate were truly classified.

Prosecutorial leaks floated all sorts of unproven nefarious agendas that had prompted Trump’s disputes over his presidential papers.

But no one to this day has seriously asked why senator and then Vice President Biden secretly and weirdly removed and kept such sensitive material for years.

Recent reports allege that Hunter Biden may have been treated with kid gloves by prosecutors, partly because Hunter’s lawyers had threatened otherwise to call Joe Biden to the stand as a favorable witness.

Government prosecutors under pressure from the White House apparently balked at the nightmare of a befuddled president of the United States testifying under oath about the supposed innocence of the very guilty Hunter Biden.

In truth, the former drug addict Hunter has played lots of such strange games with his own family.

In his laptop communications, Hunter whined that no one in the family appreciated his hard work at family grifting.

He sounded petulant that his father forced him to fork over half his income to the Joe and Jill Biden household.

At time of universal scrutiny of Hunter, the last thing any sane first son might do would be to hawk his own childish paintings at exorbitant prices to those wishing to buy influence with his father the president.

In effect, Hunter was almost daring the White House to stop his blatant grifting artistry.

Instead, the Bidens moved Hunter into the White House, apparently to keep him under closer watch.

Hunter is still out of control. He could take the family down with him unless President Biden continues to shield him from prosecution.

Ironically, the double standard used by Biden and the media to hound Trump has only raised new questions of fairness.

Why had the Biden family — with its far greater legal exposure — never faced such serial indictments?

A Republican House of Representatives had ended prior Democratic protection given to the Bidens.

And the Ukraine war has again turned attention to the Biden-Burisma connection and Hunter’s shaking down of Ukrainian officials.

Finally, Joe Biden can no longer work a full day. He mutters. He stumbles. He serially lies.

He hijacks solemn occasions commemorating national tragedies by trying to one up the grieving with his own self-absorbed stories — most of them irrelevant and narcissistic half-truths.

If a cognitively and criminally challenged Biden cannot finish his term, we will finally learn the full story of 15 years of Biden family corruption.

The Bidens will lose the only impediment — Joe Biden’s political machinations — left in the way of an honest, full-blown felony investigation into what is likely the most corrupt presidential family in American history.

Joe Biden Is Starting To Look Totally Insane

In yet another completely out-of-touch moment, President Joe Biden addressed the victims of the Maui fire on Monday. He attempted to relate to their anguish by telling them a story about when his home in Delaware was struck by lightning while he was doing “Meet the Press” in D.C.  on a “sunny Sunday,” apparently, two very important details to the story. 

“To make a long story short, I almost lost my wife, my ’67 Corvette, and my cat.” 

The story couldn’t have been short enough. 

While I am as sympathetic as anyone regarding the potential loss of a cat, the president really needs to learn how to read a room. 

If you have to start the sentence with, “I don’t want to compare difficulties, but …” then you should probably keep your mouth shut. 

I have yet to find a video including any audience response, but I can only imagine the dumbfounded look on people’s faces. The gentlemen musicians standing behind Biden looked as if they were trying to resist not look as shocked as they were. 

Someone needs to teach the president the art of empathy.

No one who’s just had their home and everything they own burned to ashes by an out-of-control wildfire want to hear about your 1967 Corvette, Joe. Even if it was true. Which, apparently, it wasn’t. 

Joe Biden: Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies

A 2004 report from the Associated Press, archived by LexisNexis, stated lightning struck the Bidens’ home and started a "small fire that was contained to the kitchen." The report said firefighters got the blaze under control in 20 minutes and that they were able to keep the flames from spreading beyond the kitchen.

Apparently, firefighters on the scene deemed the fire in the Biden household kitchen to be “insignificant” despite Biden claiming in October of last year that “we almost lost a couple firefighters.” 

Recounting exaggerated events like this does not endear voters to the incumbent seeking a second term.

Residents on the street who watched the president’s motorcade pass by didn’t exactly give Biden a warm welcome. I can only imagine what they’d have done had they been in the room to hear his tall tale. I’m pretty sure I know who won’t be voting for Biden in 2024. 

If Biden is lying about stupid stuff like his house being torched and watching a bridge collapse to make himself more relatable, is it really a stretch to believe that he’d lie about things that would land him in serious hot water? 

Things like who the “big guy” is or that he has no knowledge of his son’s overseas business dealings with China, Ukraine, and other foreign adversaries. 

A Leopard Doesn’t Change His Spots

Joe Biden has been swindling the American Public since he was sworn into office in 1973 in the Senate. 

The far-left agenda he is pursuing as president is completely out of step with his 36-year record in the Senate. 

Before being elevated to the White House, he voted to ban homosexuals from serving in the military and to bar the federal government from recognizing same-sex marriages. 

He was a leading opponent of mandatory desegregation bussing. 

In 1987, Biden ran for president but withdrew after a scandal ensued when it was discovered he plagiarized a speech by Neil Kinnock, the British Leader of the Opposition and Labour Party leader.

Biden was also said to have used without attribution substantial portions of speeches by Robert Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey.

Even back then, a Time article with the subtitle “Does Joe Biden talk too much?” recognized Biden’s tendencies to be inappropriate. 

Laurence I. Barrett, a former TIME national political correspondent who profiled Biden during his three-month-long presidential bid in the run-up to the 1988 election, wrote “Biden’s mouth is both his greatest asset and his greatest liability,” shortly after Biden announced his candidacy.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Joe Biden is an opportunist who will lie, cheat, and steal to seize and maintain power.

Apowerful House committee wants previously shielded information from the National Archives regarding Joe Biden’s communication with family business associates when he was vice president. 

In an letter Thursday to the head of the National Archives and Records Administration, the committee’s chairman asked for Biden’s vice presidential records that included pseudonyms and communications with his son Hunter Biden  and with Biden family business associates. 

“Many of these records have been redacted for publication” under federal law, House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., wrote to Archivist of the United States Colleen Shogan. 

“To further our investigation, it is essential that the committee review these documents in their original format,” Comer wrote to Shogan. 

In his letter, Comer specifies redactions of some information allowed by the Presidential Records Act and the Freedom of Information Act. 

“The committee seeks unrestricted special access under the PRA to Case Number 2023-0022-F, entitled ‘Email Messages To and/or From Vice President Biden and Hunter Biden related to Burisma and Ukraine,’ which has been published on website,” the Kentucky Republican’s letter to Shogan continues.

Comer’s letter refers to a documented 9 a.m. phone call on May 27, 2016, between then-Vice President Biden and then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. However, the document was sent to “Robert L. Peters”—identified by the committee as a pseudonym for Biden—and the vice president’s son, Hunter Biden, was copied on the documentation of the phone call.

Among documents requested by the committee are any in which a “pseudonym for Vice President Joe Biden was included either as a sender, recipient, copied or was included in the contents of the document or communication, including but not limited to Robert Peters, Robin Ware, and JRB Ware,” the letter to the National Archives chief says.

Comer wrote that his House committee also seeks any document or communication “in which Hunter Biden, Eric Schwerin, or  Devon Archer  was included either as a sender, recipient, copied, or was included in the contents of the document or communication.”

Comer’s letter deepens the House investigation of what Republicans say is evidence of influence peddling by Biden and his family in countries such as China, Ukraine, and Romania. 

“Joe Biden has stated there was ‘an absolute wall’ between his family’s foreign business schemes and his duties as vice president, but evidence reveals that access was wide open for his family’s influence peddling,” Comer said in a written statement, adding:

We already have evidence of then-Vice President Biden speaking, dining, and having coffee with his son’s foreign business associates. We also know that Hunter Biden and his associates were informed of then-Vice President Biden’s official government duties in countries where they had a financial interest. The National Archives must provide these unredacted records to further our investigation into the Biden family’s corruption.

'Useless and Crooked': President Joe Biden Slammed by Critics After Texts Resurface Claiming Hunter Paid His Dad's Bills for 11 Years

President Joe Biden and his embattled son Hunter found themselves in hot water with critics after 2018 texts resurfaced claiming that the 53-year-old had been paying his father's bills for years.

One conversation between Hunter and assistantKatie Dodge took place after the first son complained Wells Fargo had locked him out of his account again.

"Too many cooks in the kitchen," he explained in the April 12, 2018, messages. "Too many profile changes and such. Happened 10 days ago too. What do you need? I’m going to bank in a few. Need to verify identity in person."

While discussing payments that needed to go through for an AT&T account, Hunter asked Katie to pay the bill using his debit card as well as his Wells Fargo credit line, but his assistant warned him that the credit card may need to be paid down first.

"My dad has been using most lines on this account which I’ve through the gracious offerings of Eric [Schwerin] have paid for past 11 years," Hunter said later in the conversation.

In a separate 2019 text conversation with his 29-year-old daughter, Naomi, Hunter also appeared to imply that he had been paying his father a large sum of his paychecks.

"I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family Fro (sic) 30 years," he allegedly wrote at the time. "It's really hard. But don't worry unlike Pop I won't make you give me half your salary."

Critics of the Biden administration took to social media to claim that this allegedly proved the father-son duo had been working together as Hunter continues to be accused of involving the POTUS in his supposedly shady overseas business dealings.

"Hunter's text about Biden making him fork over half his salary resurfaces amid new Democrat talking point," one Twitter user penned. "Joe Biden [is] 100% involved in his son’s criminal schemes."

"Joe, useless and crooked," another chimed in, while a third speculated, "So your son is paying your bills with your dirty money from overseas. Splendid."

Several members of the GOP also joined in on the criticism. House Republican Conference Chair Representative Elise Stefanik argued the texts were an an example of "corruption."

"For seemingly the entirety of Joe Biden’s Vice Presidency, his son Hunter was selling access to his father to the highest bidder while paying off his Joe Biden’s credit card bills," the politician said in a recent interview. "There can no longer be any doubt that Joe Biden is compromised."

"Joe Biden is most certainly a heavily compromised career politician," Representative Clay Higgins alleged. "Republicans on the Oversight Committee are revealing the depths of his corruption, and everyone close to him will be burned by the inferno of his crash."

It’s another day and another fish tale from Joe Biden.

This time, the president falsely claimed in a speech to have personally witnessed the Pittsburgh bridge collapse last January.

He spun his yarn trying to impress his audience; however, he was caught flat-footed by critics.

“A lot of you were with me when I was in Pittsburgh,” Biden told a crowd gathered at a Milwaukee wind turbine manufacturing plant to hear him speak. “By the way, Pittsburgh is a city of bridges – more bridges in Pittsburgh than any other city in America.”

He went on to claim, “I watched that bridge collapse,” adding, “I got there and saw it collapse with over 200 feet off the ground going over a valley. It collapsed. Thank God school was out during the pandemic.”

The 477-foot-long bridge collapsed hours before his speech. The president was not anywhere near the site.

Some on X, formerly known as Twitter, suggested that Biden had lost touch with reality.

“Joe Biden watched a bridge collapse in Pittsburgh. He’s not lying. Lying requires understanding reality and saying something contrary. Sadly, our president lacks a grasp on reality. His head believes he saw it collapse,” one user wrote.

Others accused the president of being an unabashed liar.

Another post opined, “Prolific liar or dementia? Joe Biden tells a lie each day.  Today: Biden claims he witnessed a Pittsburgh bridge collapse.”

Joe Biden Tall Tale Not Isolated Incident

Joe Biden has a long history of tall tales.

In 2021, Biden was corrected by the executive director of Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life Synagogue for claiming he had visited it.

The synagogue was the site of the horrific 2018 massacre of 11 people by a Neo-Nazi.

“I used to think that hate could be defeated, it could be wiped out. But I learned a long time ago, it can’t. It only hides. It hides. It hides under the rocks. And given any oxygen at all, it comes out. It’s a minority view, but it comes out, and it comes out raging. And it’s been given too much oxygen in the last four, five, seven, 10 years, and it has seen itself, whether it was – I remember spending time at the – you know, going to the – you know, the Tree of Life Synagogue, speaking with the – just –,” Biden said; he didn’t finish the sentence, instead continuing, “It just is amazing these things are happening – happening in America.”

Tree of Life Executive Director Barb Feige told The New York Post that Biden had never been to the synagogue even before he became president.

Biden’s ‘CornPop’ Tale

Biden’s most infamous Pecos Bill tale probably was his claim in 2019 to have confronted a black gang leader in Wilmington, Del., in 1962 while he was a lifeguard.

“CornPop was a bad dude and he ran a bunch of bad boys,” he said while mimicking a black American accent. “I walked out with the chain. I walked up to my car,” Biden said. “I said: ‘First of all … when I tell you to get off the board, you get off the board, and I’ll kick you out again. But I shouldn’t have called you Esther Williams, I apologize.’

“But I don’t know if that apology is going to work … “He said OK, closed the straight razor and my heart began to beat again.”

His tale immediately raised skepticism and many in the media refused to accept it as anything other than a fabrication.

Biden has always had a knack for making things up. It’s not a senior thing.

He has been known as a liar as far as 1987.

Biden gives Iran a $6 billion payday

Biden gives Iran a $6 billion payday© Provided by Washington Examiner

President Joe Biden's decision to unfreeze $6 billion in Iranian oil revenues is intended to bribe the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism to release hostages. Iran has unsurprisingly hailed this deal, which will bring it substantial benefits, as one of "honorable diplomacy." But it contradicts decades of U.S. counterterrorism policy centered on the understanding that Washington should not pay terrorists.

Instead of taking all necessary measures to protect Americans, the Biden administration excuses its transfer of $6 billion in Danegeld on the grounds that it will be used only for humanitarian purposes. This is delusional and naive. Money is fungible, and so a payment in one area frees up money in another. And then, of course, there is the fact that the regime in Tehran routinely breaks its word. Biden's payment of a terrorist regime rewards terrorism and thus endangers Americans everywhere.

WRAY LIED ABOUT NOT TARGETING CATHOLICS

Qatar, which is a nominal U.S. ally and an Iranian partner, will supposedly supervise the account holding the $6 billion to ensure funds are not diverted to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps or other such organizations. But only a fool or the most willful Biden ideologue believes this safeguard will succeed.

How is Qatar to verify and police what is going on? Do we seriously expect Qatar, which does its own terrorist funding, to risk its relationship with Tehran to keep the U.S. happy? The two Middle Eastern neighbors are giving the Biden administration a pretense of deniability about the $6 billion, which is what it wants.

Iran is throwing money and arms at the Palestinian Islamic Jihad in the West Bank, making security in the Palestinian territory worse than it has been for decades. Israeli citizens now bear the brunt of this danger. Iran's partner, the Lebanese Hezbollah, is similarly agitating on Israel's northern border. Israel fears a revival of its 2006 war with Hezbollah.

At the same time, the IRGC's intelligence services plot the assassination of active and former U.S. officials and Iranian human rights activists. The IRGC is also plotting against U.S. military personnel in Syria and beyond. Iran's nuclear program is producing enriched uranium approaching weapons-grade purity. Iran's secret nuclear weapons research is advancing the regime's ability to build warheads and missiles. All this is only a fraction of the consequence of Biden's strategy of encouraging hostage-taking.

Russia, among others, revels in Biden's weakness toward Iran, for Russian President Vladimir Putin now knows he need only take innocent Americans hostage in order to trade for the release of his arms dealers and other thugs. The continued detention of the American Wall Street Journal  reporter Evan Gershkovich is an example of this.

What contrary lesson could Russia or any U.S. adversary take from Biden's $6 billion bonanza for Iran? The answer is, none. Taking Americans hostage doesn't risk mortal reprisal but is being made a logical business. Tyrants, like anyone else, respond to incentives and are willing to respond in ways at which decent governments would balk. Another lesson is that the Biden administration is malleable even in its most critical obligation to protect Americans.

Joe Biden Is Becoming Dangerous

This Might Be Joe Biden's Biggest Mistake Yet: Contemporaneously assessing a presidential administration can be difficult for obvious reasons. The administration is ongoing. Not only has the dust not settled, but in some respects, the dust hasn’t even been kicked up yet. So assigning a ‘biggest mistake’ to the Biden Administration in the middle of Joe Biden’s first-term isn’t exactly a hard science.

Biden may well only be in year three of an eight-year administration. But Joe Biden already seems to have already made a mistake that will be hard to top: the prosecution of his chief political rival, Donald Trump.

Joe Biden's Moves and the Longterm Consquences 

What is happening right now, within the Biden administration, may have noxious and enduring consequences that far out-live the octogenarian incumbent. The Department of Justice, under President Biden is leading a multi-pronged prosecution of the man Biden defeated in the 2020 presidential election – and the man Biden will most certainly face in the 2024 election. That fact pattern, regardless of the specifics, is in and of itself deeply concerning. Maybe Trump has behaved in a way worthy of prosecution, maybe he hasn’t. That’s not my point here. My point here is that the prosecution looks political. As Jack Goldsmith wrote in The New York Times: “There is no getting around the fact that the indictment comes from the Biden administration when Mr. Trump holds a formidable lead in the polls to secure the Republican Party nomination and is running neck and neck with Mr. Biden, the Democratic Party’s probable nominee.” Exactly. Forget about what Trump may or may not have done for a moment. And consider singularly what Biden is doing right now.

The perception of a politically motivated prosecution has the potential to spoil the 2024 election. Imagine: Biden using the prosecutions to berate Trump on the campaign trails/debate stage as being criminally corrupt. Biden’s primary evidence? The indictments his administration initiated. That’s not going to feel right, yet it’s likely going to be a central facet of the upcoming presidential election.

Now, if you thought the right was upset about the 2020 election – based on the concerns that mail-in ballots had been corrupted – imagine how the right is going to feel about 2024. If Trump loses, the right will scream corruption at a volume exceeding the (sizable) outcry following 2020.

Elections/democracy are not the only potential victim here. The Department of Justice, a vital component of the federal government, will also take a hit. “The Justice Department,” Goldsmith wrote, “however pure its motivations, will probably emerge from this prosecution viewed as an irretrievably politicized institution by a large chunk of the country.” Goldsmith continued: “The department has been on a downward spiral because of its serial mistakes in high-profile contexts, accompanied by sharp political attacks from Mr. Trump and others on the right. Its predicament will now very likely row much worse because the consequences of its election-fraud prosecution are so large, the taint of its past actions is so great and the potential outcome for Mr. Biden is too favorable.”

In short, Biden’s actions have the potential to further degrade public faith in our elections and our institutions. At a minimum, the Biden administration is establishing a new and unsavory precedent for how elected officials may deal with their political rivals. And that seems like pretty dangerous stuff to me. 

Biden regrets lying to you about the 'Inflation Reduction Act'

Biden regrets lying to you about the 'Inflation Reduction Act'© Provided by Washington Examiner

President Joe Biden wants you to know that he deeply regrets manipulating the public to pass a climate bill under the guise of fighting inflation at a time when inflation was running rampant.

Biden regrets naming his big-spending climate bill the Inflation Reduction Act because “it has less to do with reducing inflation than it does to do with dealing with providing for alternatives that generate economic growth.” In other words, he wants you to stop talking about how the Inflation Reduction Act ended up making inflation worse because the bill was never really about inflation in the first place.

UP FOR DEBATE: WHERE TRUMP, DESANTIS, AND REST OF REPUBLICAN 2024 FIELD STAND ON KEY ISSUES

Biden doesn’t actually regret the name, of course, because that name was a conscious decision.

In August 2022, inflation was the top issue on the mind of most of the country. Therefore, Biden and Democrats saw an opportunity to pass $430 billion in climate and healthcare spending by claiming it would reduce inflation, which was so clearly false at the time that even spend-happy Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) admitted it would “have a minimal impact on inflation.”

This was all clear at the time. Legacy media immediately touted it as a climate and health bill after it was passed, with inflation suddenly becoming an afterthought for the “Inflation Reduction Act.” Biden took a victory lap for passing the bill in September as inflation continued to worsen. And now we know that the estimated spending for the climate components of the bill has ballooned from $369 billion over 10 years to over $1 trillion.

Now, people are still wrestling with the effects of inflation that the “Inflation Reduction Act” has failed to quell, and Biden just wants to move on.

Sure, Biden essentially lied to the country by claiming the bill would reduce inflation when he knew all along that it was about climate and healthcare spending. Yes, he was capitalizing on the biggest concern people had by painting his spending priorities as a solution to that concern when he knew it wasn’t true. But hey, he regrets purposefully deceiving you now that all that spending has been passed. Isn’t that nice of him?

Biden evidently took to heart the notion that it is better to ask for forgiveness than for permission. His open admission that he used the fear of inflation to attempt to manipulate the public into supporting his spending priorities (right before the midterm elections) shows him to be the exploitative politician that he has always been.

It Never Ends: Look What Biden Wants To Send Ukraine Now

The amount of financial aid sent to Ukraine from the United States has become a subject of debate among Americans as the total climbs over $113 billion.

Popular political commentator Tucker Carlson, for example, has argued that “every city in the United States has become much worse in the last three years” while simultaneously sending significant aid to foreign nations, including Ukraine.

Despite these legitimate concerns, President Joe Biden will soon ask Congress for another $10 billion to provide Ukraine with an aid package. (Trending: Disney Just Pulled A Bud Light…)

Ukraine has been struggling with a “slow-moving counteroffensive against Russia” as America and other NATO countries scramble to provide support.

Biden’s goal is to replenish American weapon stockpiles which have been depleted.

A poll from the Quincy Institute last week found that a majority of Americans oppose sending more aid to Ukraine.

Kelley Vlahos, a senior adviser at the Quincy Institute, said, “The poll also doesn’t bode well for Biden’s handling of major foreign policy issues. Some 53 percent disapprove of how he is handling the war in Ukraine; 56 percent disapprove of how he is handling Russia; and 57 percent disapprove of how he is handling the relationship with China.”

Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy of California stands in Biden’s way for approval of another aid package.

Seventy House Republicans voted to cut off funding for Ukraine in recent months.

The Grand Canyon is one of the Earth’s nine wonders of the world, Joe Biden said. 

The problem: he is wrong. Way wrong. 

Joe Biden: What Did He Say Now? 

“The Grand Canyon — one of the Earth’s nine wonders, wonders of the world, literally. Think of that. You know, it’s amazing. An enduring symbol of America to the entire world,” Biden said.

Biden made his comment while he was in Arizona to establish a new national monument called Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni or the Ancestral Footprints of the Grand Canyon National Monument in English on 917,618 acres.

“These special places are not a pass-through on the way to the Grand Canyon. They are sacred and significant unto their own right,” she added. “We are in a new era, one in which we honor tribally led conservation, advance co-stewardship and care about the well-being of Native American people.”

As has become customary with Biden gaffes, people were quick to correct him.

The Real Seven Wonders of the Natural World

There are Seven Wonders of the Natural World. The Grand Canyon is one of seven. The others include the Northern Lights; the Great Barrier Reef; Paricutin in Mexico; Victoria Falls in Africa; Mount Everest; and the Rio de Janeiro harbor. 

He later attempted to correct his error.

“The first time I saw the Grand Canyon, years ago, I was a young senator. As I stood there and looked out, a phrase came to mind, it was instinctive, I said this must be, this is God’s cathedral. That’s what it reminded me of. It just is so magnificent,” the president told those listening to his speech. “As a matter of fact, I said nine, it’s one of the seven wonders of the world.”

Biden Gaffe Minor Compared With Others

This gaffe was minor in comparison with some of his other recent flubs which caused many to wonder about his cognitive abilities.

His comment about Vladimir Putin losing in Iraq in June caused many to question if he was losing his mind.

“It’s hard to tell really. But he’s clearly losing the war in Iraq. He’s losing the war at home and he has become a bit of a pariah around the world. And it’s not just NATO, it’s not just the European Union. It’s Japan, it’s 40 nations,” he said.

Such a flub could be seen as a symptom of his aging and feed the rumors about his incompetence.

“The Democratic Party needs to be responsive to what people are saying about Biden and their concerns that they have with his age,” a congressional Democrat, who remained anonymous, told the outlet, told Fox News. “The number of text messages that I got after the president fell … I mean, my phone was blowing up. People are like, ‘Oh, this is so bad.’”

Bidenomics Prove Joe Biden Is a Fool

After a week vacationing in his home state of Delaware, President Joe Biden is going west this week to tout his economic gains to residents of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. It is part of his campaign's reelection strategy, which seeks to focus on the economy, record-low unemployment, and better-than-expected GDP growth.

However, poll numbers also show persistent voter skepticism about the state of the economy, while the political world remains dominated by other matters – including the indictment of former President Donald Trump for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election. That news has consumed the public consciousness, and in the process drawn the spotlight away from the White House's efforts to promote "Bidenomics."

However, this visit will be an attempt to shift that focus.

"You can expect us to highlight more groundbreakings of projects, more ribbon-cuttings, and opportunities to show the American people how these investments and jobs are reaching their communities and their neighborhoods," Natalie Quillian, White House deputy chief of staff, told The Washington Post while previewing Biden's stops this week in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. "This is a critical element of our strategy."

Americans Just Don't See It

At issue today is that Americans on Main Street may not be feeling any of the economic gains seen on Wall Street – mainly as last year's inflation ate into savings for many.

In fact, even some who voted for Biden in 2020 have said they believe the economy has fared poorly under his stewardship and they might not vote for him in the 2024 election, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released last week.

About half of the respondents who voted for Biden in 2020 said they have heard little or nothing of his major policy initiatives to reduce inflation or boost spending on infrastructure.

Democratic strategist Jennifer Holdsworth told Reuters that this week's trip could serve to counter a message spread by the nation's right-wing media that have distorted the economy and Biden's legislative agenda.

The Battle over Bidenomics? Joe Biden Should Worry

Even as Joe Biden hypes Bidenomics, Republicans have also been working aggressively to take back the term, dubbing it as synonymous with tax hikes and inflation.

Democrats acknowledge that slapping Biden's name on the economy is a gamble, given the prospect of it moving in the wrong direction, Politico.com reported.

The question is whether Americans will agree. Right now, that looks suspect. 

A New York Times/Siena College poll, conducted before Trump's latest indictment last week, found Biden and Trump tied at 43 percent in a prospective matchup.

In fact, it seems many Americans will conclude Bidenomics looks like an election-style scam marketing campaign and that Joe Biden looks like a fool for putting it out in the public arena. 

CNN Host Stunned as Guest Suddenly Destroys Biden in 66 Seconds

It appears that CNN isn’t able to defend Joe Biden any longer.

With over 20 years in the industry, veteran political commentator Scott Jennings had extensive involvement in four presidential efforts and he’s a regular contributor on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and an Adjunct Lecturer at Harvard. Jennings appeared on CNN to reflect on Biden’s time in the White House, and his commentary appeared to stun everyone.

“I never imagined how quickly this would all unfold,” Jennings began. “The person they sold on the campaign. The nice old moderate Grandpa who just wanted to help everybody get along and compromise is not what we got over the past year.” (Trending: North Face Has A Bud Light Moment And It’s Ugly)

“He has no mandate, really, to do much of anything,” he continued. “It’s amazing that he got a couple of things done when the mandate was pretty clear: 50/50 Senate and near 50/50 House, and a pretty close presidential election.”

“The mandate was simply ‘replace Donald Trump and don’t do anything drastic or stupid,” Jennings said. “And yet everything about this agenda is extremely drastic. And he’s been angrier than I think people expected, he’s been more divisive, he’s been more partisan.”

“You look at the issues. We built five years of coverage on Trump out of Russia, COVID, and democracy,” Jennings added. “The president, in his press conference, invites Russia to invade the Ukraine. We have more [COVID] deaths under Biden than Trump. And now we have the president and the vice president question the legitimacy of the 2022 election? Are we any better off on these issues that we crucified Trump over?”

“I think he has a lot of political problems,” he said. “And an AP poll came out this morning, only 28 percent of Americans want the sitting president to run for re-election. And fewer than half of Democrats. This is a disaster,” Jennings concluded.

A Quinnipiac poll showed Biden’s approval crashing to 33 percent. This is worst than the lowest rating ever received by President Donald Trump, according to Gallup.

Joe Biden Is Lying to the American People and They Should Be Outraged

Joe Biden's Bidenomics is a Lie - It’s a fairly understood concept among voters that politicians lie.

Further, it’s a sadly accepted notion that, when Democratic Party politicians lie, the media, academia, and much of elite society not only spread the lies but protect the Democrats from being dinged by fact-checkers and Republicans alike. 

As the already contentious 2024 Presidential Election gets underway, with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris running as the presumptive nominees of the Democratic Party, Biden, and his fellow Democrats are going to have to do everything they can to stay competitive with voters. 

Because, as it stands, Joe Biden and his running-mate, Kamala Harris, are the two least popular politicians to run for reelection in decades. 

Bidenomics vs. Reaganomics 

A key plank in Joe Biden’s burgeoning reelection campaign has been his blandly titled “Bidenomics” policies.

If Republican President Ronald Reagan’s visionary economic program was defined by tax cuts for the upper wage earners and massive deregulation of industry to spur wider economic growth that benefited all Americans, then President Biden’s economic policies involve a far greater degree of state interference with and influence over the economy. 

In essence, Bidenomics is the so-called “answer” to the Libertarian economic preferences that have dominated America’s political and economic systems since the 1980s.

Biden’s economic policies represent a return to the halcyon days of “Progressive” presidents, such as Franklin D. Roosevelt or Lyndon B. Johnson, with their massive tax-and-spend policies that were designed to ameliorate economic woes (but often, as economist Burton Folsom, Jr., showed in his works, exacerbated the economic woes of most Americans). 

Thus, Bidenomics is the Democratic Party’s great economic revenge upon their Republican foes after decades of Reaganomics being the defining feature of economic policy.

Unlike Reaganomics, however, Bidenomics has been slow to take off and live up to its promise (or its massive cost). The Biden Campaign, desperate to tout the forty-sixth president’s turgid record as anything other than the turd it is, has glammed onto a recent data point showing that wage growth has outstripped inflation in the United States. 

Dems In Trouble: Americans See Through ‘Bidenomics’ Lies

How To Make Sure Joe Biden Can’t Escape Justice

Last week, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) made headlines after he explicitly stated his belief that the Biden Family’s questionable financial practices and their financial ties to Hunter Biden’s allegedly illicit international influence peddling schemes are making impeachment of President Joe Biden increasingly likely.

You see, the Republicans’ fixation on Hunter Biden is not merely about exacting political revenge upon the Democrats for their mistreatment of Donald Trump when he was president. 

There are legitimate concerns that, through the First Son’s purported illegal worldwide business deals, not only did the Biden Family benefit but Joe Biden himself financially benefited from these deals.

The Real Reason They're Pursuing Hunter Biden

That is the real reason why the GOP is intensely investigating Hunter Biden. 

It isn’t about the salacious images of the First Son engaged in sex acts with escorts. 

Or Hunter Biden’s various Baby Mamas. 

Nor is the Republican investigation about humiliating an obvious drug addict. These are all extensions of the real concerns that the GOP has. 

And those concerns revolve not just around Hunter Biden leveraging his father’s various positions in government to extract high payments from foreign governments and multinational corporations. 

That’s bad enough. 

The Republican concern is that through Hunter Biden, foreign governments – notably the People’s Republic of China – gained exclusive access to Joe Biden who, in order to earn his keep, may have altered U.S. foreign policy to suit the needs of his Chinese benefactors. 

To be clear: the impeachable offense we’re talking about is treason. 

While McCarthy’s comments were the most explicit that a high-ranking member of the GOP has made about impeaching President Biden, many on the Right are upset that the unpopular speaker failed to give a timeline.

But a timeline at this point would prove difficult. 

First, the Republicans have to find explicit links between Hunter Biden’s businesses and Joe Biden. 

Thus far, they’ve found only circumstantial evidence.

I do believe that if the GOP probes deep and long enough, they will find those financial ties. 

The purpose, though, is to prove the real criminal – treasonous – behavior of a sitting president. 

That means this is going to take time. 

Making accusations is one thing. If the GOP is serious about successfully ousting Biden from office, they need more than innuendo and suspicion.

It's Not Just Political Revenge 

Speaking for myself, pursuing Hunter Biden in the hopes of impeaching the sitting president is not about political revenge. 

I fear that for many on the Right, it’s simply about getting even with the Democrats for their impeachment mania – based on false premises – of former President Donald Trump. 

But, if the accusations about Hunter Biden being a conduit for foreign influence over his father are true, then the GOP needs to have all its political and legal ducks in a row. 

This isn’t about Hunter Biden. 

This is about protecting the country from a president who may be compromised by foreign intelligence services.
