President Joe Biden gave what seemed to be a farewell address from the Oval Office on Wednesday night, but he did not resign. Instead, he said he will use the next six months to work on beating up the pharmaceutical industry, packing the Supreme Court, lowering prices for American consumers, fighting climate change, and taking away guns owned by U.S. citizens.
While he spoke, spray paint vandalism on the nation’s monuments in Washington, D.C. was still fresh and the burning remains of American flags drifted around the nation’s capital, where violent protesters had spent much of the day taking over the streets, battling police and raising Palestinian flags in place of the American flags they tore down and burned.
Biden, who had on heavy makeup, giving him an uncharacteristic healthy tan, said he had come to the realization over the past few weeks that passing the torch to a new generation was best for America, and that he was proud of his 50 years of service to the country.
“I’ve decided that the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation. That’s the best way to unite our nation,” he said.
“I’ve made it clear that America is at an inflection point, one of those rare moments in history where the decisions we make now will determine our fate of our nation and the world for decades to come America is going to have to choose between moving forward or backward. Between hope and hate, between unity and division,” he said.
Biden used his bully pulpit to ask people to vote for Kamala Harris, his vice president, who he praised for her intelligence and experience.
He referred to Jan. 6, 2021 obliquely, but said it was the worst attack on democracy since the Civil War.
Outside, police had been battling violent protesters for much of the day.
“Today, the violent crime rate is at a 15-year low. We’re also securing our border. Border crossings are lower today than when the previous administration left office,” Biden said.
He said he was proud to have put together an administration that looks like America, admitting that he had hired for diversity, equity, and inclusion, rather than for ability or skill.
In the few minutes that Biden struggled to read the teleprompter, he never said exactly why he had sent out the letter withdrawing from the 2024 presidential race, with just over 100 days until the general election.
“Nothing, nothing can come in the way of saving our democracy, and that includes personal ambition. And I’ve decided that the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation. That’s the best way to unite our nation. You know, there is a time and a place for long years of experience in public life, there’s also a time and a place for new voices, fresh voices, and yes, younger voices, and that time and a place is now.”
Biden repeatedly lied throughout his speech, saying things like inflation is down and border crossings are below what they were under the Trump Administration.
Meanwhile, at a rally in North Carolina, Donald Trump said that “If Kamala will lie to you so brazenly about Joe Biden’s mental incapacity, then she will lie to you about anything. She can never, ever be trusted.”
In the week and a half since surviving an assassin’s bullet, Trump drew over 10,000 people to his Wednesday rally, and the line of people who could not get in stretched for a mile outside the venue.
The mayhem in DC today IS Grandpa Bloodstains legacy.
Our bold and thoughtful president now declares that it’s a good time to “pass the torch.” So, now it’s Kamala’s turn to set fires to the financial, moral, and Constitutional foundations of our republic. Not even Nostradamus could have predicted this catastrophe of our American president and vice-president.
Biden is unburdened by what has been and when your unburdened by what has been then you are unburdened by what has been so he’s dropping out to be unburdened by what has been. – kackles the clown
His legacy is theft, lying & the destruction of our country. The absolute worst president and worst cabinet in US history bar none. Unbelievable how many bottom feeders the working class in this country are supporting.
I believe you are mistaking his record for “45’s” record.
I would not agree with you on that. Perhaps if you provided some justification for your statement.
Please explain how President Trump left a legacy of theft, lying and the destruction of our country. What actions did Trump take that resulted in those results. Please provide a cause leads to effect analysis.
Trump speaks to the Nation on the same day (Jan 6) as his rabid supporters riot, break into the Capitol Building, deface it, and assault law officers. Sorry, it’s no contest.
Get a life, Whidbey. I am sorry what your media has done to you. Apparently in your world, the only bad riots are the ones where those on the political right participate, and never those where the FBI / CIA and other agencies lead the festivities. Thank you for being today’s example of brainwashing by Your Side. Cheers –
Dog you are wrong as normal. Get a better handle on the current events.
My grocery and gas bill say otherwise whidbey. But, you go ahead and keep telling yourself everything is going just fine right now.
The mainstream media sucks. Misinformation freeway.
The sobs should be shot off the monuments.
Except when they invaded the capital under 45’s watch you referred to them as patriots.
No, they should have been shot as well.
There is no justification for destroying public property. Does not matter why you are doing it.
Clean that garbage out of the Oval Office first, then scrub the monuments, and finally arrest and incarcerate any future vandals who mar public property. Give them a long count in prison.
Biden says now is the time to choose “Between hope and hate, between unity and division,” Kamala asks “Do we want to live in a country of freedom, compassion and rule of law or a country of chaos, fear and hate?”
They’ve made their choice, they’ve chosen hate, division, chaos, and fear. Antisemitic and American hating Hamas supporters riot on the streets of Washington DC. The Democratic party completely disembowles the very meaning of the term democracy. They lie to our faces and after having been caught. They continue to pretend that the emperor is wearing clothes and the show must go on.
The choice is glarlingly obvious at this point…there is no choice as the Democratic party saw to that.
The MAGA crowd believes if you ain’t male, white and right you should have no freedoms. Soon the robes will be worn again under the cover of darkness.
Of course you have nothing to support what you’ve said. As far as wearing robes under the cover of darkness, let’s not forget that the KKK was and is a Democrat aligned movement and I have no doubt that the robes are still being worn under the cover of darkness by those same people. In fact when Democratic Senator and former Klan member Robert Byrd passed away, during Joe Biden’s eulogy he called the Klan member his mentor, friend, and leader. Yep the historical record is full of racist Democrats.
Can you name any of these MAGA crowd people who actually believe that? Is there some manifesto that I am not privy too that holds that information?
.
Please let us all know your source, and enlighten us all so that we may change our ways.
Ooooooo.. Booga-booga!! They’re all those klansmen biding under your bed, AFFF!!! Seek help for your paranoid delusions
What color robes do the non white supporters of DJT have to wear? We need to get this all figured out so the outfits can match, because wearing white after Labor Day is frowned upon.
It is not politically correct to call them White people. They are now to be called People of Light.
Vibe supremacists.
If you don’t match the high vibe, you don’t fit in the tribe.
They will not lower themselves to the level of perpetual victimhood.
They seek to uplift all other peoples to the level of thriving, not just surviving.
The opportunity to equal for all to live a high life. At this point, if someone isn’t harmonious with the grand orchestra, they simply are choosing not to.
We’re all very familiar (and disgusted) with his 50+ years of political failures, mis-deeds, blatant lies, devious manipulations, and epic crimes. All of which, he’ll no-doubt ‘never’ be held accountable for these transgressions. I guess that’s just the typical life in politics. I may(?), possibly forgive some of these crimes, if and only if, he demonstrates a 6-Handicap while walking 18-holes and carrying his own golf bag?
Biden appointees are all freaks!
Interesting stuff being reported about Biden’s appearance on X.
Biden’s legacy:
.
1. Trannies all over the Administration.
2. 8.3 million illegal aliens slipping into our country.
3. Endless wars in Ukraine and Gaza.
4. High inflation.
5. Energy dependence on foreign countries.
6. LGBTQ radical agenda.
7. Stole the 2020 election.
8. 18 soldiers dead and $50 billion in lost military hardware from Afghanistan pullout.
9. Took money from enemies of the state with son’s assistance.
10. Cancelled the XL Pipeline contract.
11. Put the Deep State back in charge of bureaucracy.
12. Bailout of $400 billion in student loans.
13. Will not recognize new granddaughter.
Spot on. But, more like 12-15 million illegals and let’s not forget that in response to the Afghan bombing, Biden killed by drone an innocent family, including seven children.
It’s election season. Of course the deep state is going to rile up their rent-a-mob to agitate our country and push the narrative of unrest and the need for more social justice. And none of this is complete without the burning of the American flag. Showing once again that hate crime against the good American people is ok when they do it.
Trump speaks to the Nation on the same day (Jan 6) as his rabid supporters riot, break into the Capitol Building, deface it, and assault law officers. Sorry, it’s no contest. Not even close.
“Trump speaks to the Nation on the same day (Jan 6) as his rabid supporters riot………..”
And Biden was silent for weeks and weeks during series of riots in 2020 and 2021 at the Portland Oregon federal courthouse as the building was set on fire (with personnel in it) and nearly 1000 federal officers were repeatedly attacked and even blinded with lasers.
For weeks.
Go riot, puppy.
What Kool aid you been drinking Dog?
Whidbey,
You’re absolutely correct, there is no contest. One group supports those who rape, butcher, torture, dismember, brutalize, and murder innocent women, children, and elderly. The other takes selfies of themselves sitting at Pelosi’s desk.
The moral equivalency that you draw between those who burn the American flag while chanting death to America and those who proudly wave the American flag isn’t an equivalency at all. Not even close.
The only equivalency between the two is neither hold any responsibility for the riots that happened the same day they addressed the nation.
Aside from that, the results of their actions as President are night and day different. So, no contest. Biden sold out the nation to the WEF agenda. The goal of the Democrats is to make the US a subservient nation to the globalists. And, those that do not see it are willfully blind.
Lol Seriously? At least now, People know that when lefties, like you, say these things, you are actually saying what the lefties are doing and projecting on People who love America. Under Trump, I was not witnessing my gas and electric bills climbing to outrageous amounts as it is doing since O’biden took office. Now, not only is my grocery bill high, but I cannot even get decent food that is free of toxic chemicals. There is so much more that O’biden and regime have done to ruin this great nation…too much to list. I am looking forward to President Trump getting back into office and helping the People rebuild this nation into a self-sufficient nation once again.
My comment about the troll is directed to Thedog.
Hold on there WTD are you excusing this violent widespread behavior, the occupation of the rotunda, flag burning, desecrating our historical buildings, because “J6 did it too”???
(Please see Steve-O’s comment regarding contest)
J6 riot afternoon was unacceptable and people have gone to jail. You should be just as outraged about this far more widespread “Death to America” riot and demand that they be arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
One bad behavior does not excuse other bad acts!
If, a big word here, anything good comes of this corrupt dystopian administration, I hope it will be to teach people the absolute lunacy of hiring because of diversity.
Democrats like Biden lie about illegal border crossings because Americans have had enough of their open border nonsense. Crossings are down for two reasons. First, its 110F- 115F in Arizona. Crossings always decline in this kind of Summer heat. Second, Biden is flying these invaders into our country directly from Haiti and other countries- so you don’t see lines of people pilling up at the border.
Worst president ever.
Rome was burnin’ while Biden was fiddlin’
Thank you Whidbey Thedog….I can always count on getting a good laugh from your standup comedy.
Yukon…that was epic and so true😂😂😂
Whitney…woke much?
I see you took the leftist pill.
