Secondhand ‘Stolen Valor’? Lying Joe Invents Purple Heart Story About Uncle

Very early in the 2020 presidential campaign season, I called attention to Joe Biden’s habit of saying that he gave “my word as a Biden” in vouching for the truth of whatever he was saying. It seems Joe believes (or at least wishes his audience to believe) that not only is he trustworthy, but that […]

Not Since ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’ Has Anyone Made a Worse Trade Than This

A textbook example of what bargaining from a position of weakness looks like: The U.S. released an infamous terrorist arms dealer known as “The Merchant of Death” for a lesbian dopehead basketball player. One need not be biased against lesbians or marijuana users — “Why, some of my best friends . . .” — to […]

Joe Biden and the ‘Path to Chaos’ (He’s Living Underground Like a Wild Potato)

No sooner had I finished posting about election denier Stacey Abrams, who falsely accused Republicans of stealing the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial election (which she lost by a 55,000-vote margin), than I glanced at the transcript of Joe Biden’s speech from Wednesday night: This is also the first election since the events of January 6th, when […]

Joe Biden Lies About the Economy

For example, after his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan he evoked his late son in a shameless effort to avoid criticism […]

Worst. President. Ever.

Most historians consider James Buchanan our worst president, although some would say Jimmy Carter was worse. Yet I think neither Buchanan nor Carter was worse than the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. His latest idiotic utterance: President Joe Biden on Wednesday warned oil and gas companies against increasing prices for consumers as Hurricane Ian […]

Sometimes, It’s Just Too Easy

So I saw this story earlier today: President Joe Biden on Thursday expressed his frustration with Republican governors sending migrants from the Southern border to Democrat-run cities, calling their actions “Un-American.” “Republicans are playing politics with human beings, using them as props,” Biden said. “What they’re doing is simply wrong. It’s un-American. It’s reckless” The […]

The Symbolism of Philadelphia

Joe Biden gave a speech last week in which he gave lip service to things that Democrats don’t actually believe in, e.g., the Constitution and the rule of law, as a pretext to accuse Republicans — all 74 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump — of being a “threat to our democracy.” Biden spoke […]
