BREAKING: FAMU President Larry Robinson, stung by the embarrassment of “DonateGate,” RESIGNS.
Just like I predicted right here when it happened.
@ A Skeptic… I think if the needle moved on dear ol’ Joe at all, it fell back a few more notches. The bar was set so low that he basically just had to avoid a full faceplant on stage and his PR firm (aka: the Media PACs) would heap praise on him.
For me, it was just another example of creepy ol’ Joe, with that strange habit he has of leaning into the mic a whispering. It’s weird. Anyone who has cared who suffers with Dementia/AD, clearly recognizes the symptoms everyone is so afraid to talk about. From his weird whispers – as if he thinks he’s playing a game with his grandkids (less the one he refuses to acknowledge) – to that strange blow-up of rage at the second to the last reporter’s question.
All clear and unquestionable symptoms of the obvious. The real concern we all should have is that there is no doubt Biden isn’t calling the shots. I believe have an illegitimate and unconstitutional shadow government running our country… and that ought to scare the hell out of all of us, regardless of Party affiliation.
J. Brent Pichard: “When an agency of government distinguishes itself…”
So you’re expect agencies that works FOR the people to not distinguish themself? Those agencies should be closed down or management fired.
Politico: President Joe Biden navigated one of the most heavily scrutinized presidential news conferences in history…
Those of us on the right that watched it thought it was just about perfect. Joe did well enough that Politico and other Democrat operatives would spin it positively and stall the calls for Biden to step down, but not so well that that he moved even a single independent voter to his side. Mediocrity rules!!!!
Is crime really down? Or just the reported crime? When you stop responding effectively to crime. people stop reporting. An unreported crime is still a crime
Crime is STILL to high. Need to start cracking down on the CRIMINALS and forget about all those Programs.
About the Audits: “with one being submitted 52 to 497 days after receiving the report from their respective accountants.” …………………….. Please explain, Between 52 and 497 Days? you can’t narrow it down better than THAT? REALLY? COME ON MAN.
The Dementia Patent’s so-called “big boy presser” was supposed to be open and freewheeling. That was just another lie told to the world by the Pro-Hamas Progressive Democrats and their Media PACs.
He started out holding up and admitting to a “list” of reporters he was “told to call on”.
LMAO… so much for a “big boy presser”.
Signed,
Ukraine President, Putin… and Biden’s Vice President, Trump
Oy vey…
