Joe Biden is the you-didn't-build-that president Barack Obama wouldn't warn us about
Remember the good old days when Barack Obama told entrepreneurs who built businesses "You didn't build that"?
Fun times.
We should believe Joe Biden when he denies he proclaimed Easter Sunday the Transgender Day of Visibility, even though it's in his Twitter feed and on the White House website.
Somebody else built that, and it comes as jarring news to him.
He is not in charge, especially of communications. That all goes out under his name and he has little involvement in it.
Biden is more of a figurehead because fatigue combined with the executive functions of the brain he has lost due to old age mean he must rely on others to keep up appearances and meet political expectations, in this case of the hard progressive left.
Democrats should be embarrassed by this guy, but Democrats have no shame.

The Forehead still thinks Bill Clinton would have beat Bush 41 to a pulp had it not been for Democrat H. Ross Perot lol
And Democrat RFK Jr and progressive Shanahan may keep Biden from beating Trump.

Here's what Joe Biden thinks of Christians' holiest day of the year

Nothing must interfere with Joe's transgender agenda, the first American president officially to push it.
Core pce inflation was 2.8% year over year in February 2024, but averaged just 1.6% for four years under Donald Trump
The core pce inflation rate currently is still 75% worse than Trump's 1.6%.
The three year Biden average is 4.31%, which is 169% worse than under Trump.
Real Clear Politics currently shows an average of 64.6% saying the country is on the wrong track.

Israel underestimated Hamas' strength by thousands
Insurance companies got rich because of Obamacare rules, now electric utilities are poised to get rich because of Biden climate rules
Utilities are shutting down "dirty" capacity without adequately replacing it. The law of supply and demand means only one thing: higher prices. OK, two: blackouts.
Meanwhile, tax credits under Biden's phony Inflation Reduction Act are masking the true costs of renewables.
From a Wall Street Journal op-ed "The Coming Electricity Crisis: Artificial-intelligence data centers and climate rules are pushing the power grid to what could become a breaking point" here :
Obama Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz last week predicted that utilities will ultimately have to rely more on gas, coal and nuclear plants to support surging demand. “We’re not going to build 100 gigawatts of new renewables in a few years,” he said. No kidding.
The problem is that utilities are rapidly retiring fossil-fuel and nuclear plants. “We are subtracting dispatchable [fossil fuel] resources at a pace that’s not sustainable, and we can’t build dispatchable resources to replace the dispatchable resources we’re shutting down,” Federal Energy Regulatory Commissioner Mark Christie warned this month.
About 20 gigawatts of fossil-fuel power are scheduled to retire over the next two years—enough to power 15 million homes—including a large natural-gas plant in Massachusetts that serves as a crucial source of electricity in cold snaps. PJM’s external market monitor last week warned that up to 30% of the region’s installed capacity is at risk of retiring by 2030.
Some plants are nearing the end of their useful life-spans, but an onslaught of costly regulation is the bigger cause. A soon-to-be-finalized Environmental Protection Agency rule would require natural-gas plants to install expensive and unproven carbon capture technology.
The PJM report cites “the role of states and the federal government in subsidizing resources and in environmental regulation.” It added: “The simple fact is that the sources of new capacity that could fully replace the retiring capacity have not been clearly identified.”
Meantime, the Inflation Reduction Act’s huge renewable subsidies make it harder for fossil-fuel and nuclear plants to compete in wholesale power markets. The cost of producing power from solar and wind is roughly the same as from natural gas. But IRA tax credits can offset up to 50% of the cost of renewable operators.
Baseload plants can’t turn a profit operating only when needed to back up renewables, so they are closing. This was the main culprit for Texas’s week-long power outage in February 2021 and the eastern U.S.’s rolling blackouts during Christmas 2022.
Few things are as funny as a WaPo ignoramus blaming the Christians for Moses turning the Nile to blood
Christianity was a particularly blood-obsessed religion, with the Nile transformed to a river of blood in the Old Testament plagues of Egypt . . ..
It's going to be even more funny when The Washington Post blames the Christians for the fires in town.

The dingbat who wrote this trainwreck of a story just got married and says she's looking forward to the big tax break from married filing jointly and being a dependent on her husband's health care plan lol
Farewell -- and good riddance -- to 'typical American family'...
When my partner and I file our annual income taxes in the coming weeks, we'll enjoy a sizable tax break thanks to our decision to tie the knot last fall. And as a dependent on his employer-provided health-insurance plan, I'm able to make a living as a freelancer without worrying about healthcare coverage.
