Snopes Attacks ‘Unfounded Rumor’ of Biden’s Medical Emergency in Vegas

Last Wednesday, I reported (“Exit Strategy? Biden Tests Positive for COVID, Retreats to Delaware”) about the official reason given when Joe Biden abruptly canceled an event in Las Vegas. He was seen boarding Air Force One and hasn’t been seen in public since then. What happened instead was that on Sunday afternoon, the Biden campaign […]

BIDEN DROPS REELECTION BID; THROWS SUPPORT TO VP HARRIS

The elderly dementia patient is withdrawing his candidacy for a second term, but will remain in office as president: President Joe Biden announced Sunday that he will end his presidential re-election campaign, bringing an abrupt and humbling conclusion to his half-century-long political career and scrambling the race for the White House just four months before […]

We Probably Can’t Rule Out ‘Arkancide’

Twelve more Democrats, including two senators, call on Biden to drop out — Washington Post Secluded in Rehoboth, Biden Stews at Allies’ Pressure to Drop Out of the Race — New York Times Democratic consensus solidifies around Harris, should Biden step aside — CNN It Looks Like Kamala’s Call with Democrat Donors Was a Disaster […]

Exit Strategy? Biden Tests Positive for COVID, Retreats to Delaware

Schiff cites concerns within the Democratic base about Biden’s ability to defeat former President Donald […]

‘Don’t Get Cocky’

What’s the first thing you notice when you look at today’s Real Clear Politics average of presidential election polls? What stands out to your eye? For me, it’s that NPR/PBS/Marist poll which, alone among all polls in the last two weeks, shows Joe Biden in the lead. Any average is only as good as the […]

Jon Stewart: ‘Get on Board or Shut the F*** Up Is Not a Particularly Compelling Pro-Democracy Bumper Sticker’
