Great piece not because it defends President Biden, but because it is spot on accurate.
Biden never was or claimed to be a golden-tongued orator. There are plenty of Biden gaffes through the years, none of which imply he’s senile.
Accomplishments matter
"Biden apparently suffers from the rare form of dementia that makes him more focused and disciplined as president than he ever was as vice president." --

I don’t understand how you can even be asking that question. Look at the racist image and at what Mr Bouzy said. We have an obligation to fight racism where we find it. In your position, you should know that.

She lied about who she was and what she stood for in order to get into office, then turned into half of the two-person (her and Manchin) wrecking ball aimed at President Biden's agenda to provide relief to the American public. Translation: went GOP on us.

Given the state of investigative technology and the Fed’s ability to track down so many of the J6 insurrectionists, it seems implausible we have not yet learned who perpetrated this heinous crime. Bombing is indiscriminate killing and cannot be tolerated

I’ve said in the past that the only way things will change is if a GOP legislator loses a family member in a mass shooting. If that happens, I bet there’d be legislation on the floor within a week.

Even if you feel MM to be a narcissist, seems to me the question should be does she deserve to be considered in the same “league” as the rest in the piece? Trump, Ye, Holmes…what did MM do that rises to the same level of the actions of these others? 🧵

IMHO Netanyahu is more specifically looking for a showdown with Biden.
Bibi is cut from the same cloth as Trump. He thrives on having absolute control and he’d rather see Trump win the election. And he will do whatever possible to help Him win.

History will see Biden’s first term as one of the most impactful for providing assistance to Americans and achieving much of what others just talked about.
Infrastructure, mfg (CHIPS), lower drug prices, gun control, record economic recovery…

Hmmm… they do have a point, though. By comparison, we know all the Russian-controlled media sites always present both sides of the stories. There’s the side where they blame Ukraine for war and other one where they blame U.S.

Let’s be clear, “Let Russia Win” isn’t Trump’s policy anymore than it’s Mike Johnson’s. It is Vladimir Putin’s policy and both of these traitors have violated their oaths to the U.S. They are full-fledged Russian assets.

Neo-Nazi or a Russian psyop? I’ve firmly believed Trump’s attraction to Putin goes well beyond hero worship, and what we’re seeing is a continuation of Russia’s anti-democracy ops which included 2016 election interference

You’re pathetic. “Refusal to answer” - when was that, when Gaetz kept talking over him, asking a question then interrupting with a different question befor the AG could answer? You all love Putin and Orban so why don’t you move to RU or Hungary?
