New @FreeBeacon: A review of dozens of pool reports — which are distributed via a restricted listserv — from Biden's fundraisers starting back in December show numerous verbal flubs, stammers, and outright lies. The press didn't report on any of it.

freebeacon.com/media/biden-st… @FreeBeacon The White House Correspondents' Association didn't respond to a request for comment, nor did they share the audio files from any of the press conferences mentioned in the piece above.

I'm a broken record and it's a minor point, but I do think this graf from Klein makes an even stronger argument than what he intended: The most damning thing about this press conference wasn't Biden confusing names, but that he was screaming about a thing that didn't happen 1/ Image Biden's press conference was because he was so incensed that Hur brought up Beau Biden for no apparent reason and then had the nerve to act like *Biden* was the confused one.

But that was a complete inversion of reality from Biden.

New @FreeBeacon: Both Biden's campaign and his cheerleaders in the media are back to blaming any verbal mishaps on a "lifelong stutter" — even though he supposedly conquered it decades ago

Here's the problem: His story doesn't add up
freebeacon.com/biden-administ… @FreeBeacon Biden has long said, both in his official biography and memoir, that he knew his stutter was gone when he spoke at his high school graduation ceremony in 1961. First, he said he gave the commencement speech, then he changed it to a "welcoming speech."

Hunter Biden's expensive (although he's not paying for it) attorney's entire strategy has been to cry about how Joe Biden's DOJ (??) is targeting him for political reasons. Somehow both Hunter and his father signed off on this I have no reason to doubt Hunter’s sobriety other than the fact that you would have to be high to think this was a wise argument to present to a judge. Turns out it didn’t work and now the judge is angry.

New @FreeBeacon: Biden told SC Hur a story. A young welder lost his penis in an accident and sued his employer. Biden, who was such a gifted litigator, won the case and left the welder with nothing.
That story is almost certainly a lie.

freebeacon.com/biden-administ… @FreeBeacon @AndrewKerrNC 2/ Biden says after he won the case the lead partner asked him to a celebratory lunch and in "the only time I ever lied" said he couldn't go. Instead, Biden says he marched into the public defender's office and got a new job.

That is also almost certainly a lie.

The white Latino NYT reporter who is almost certainly descended from conquistadors calling herself a “person of color” is just one of the hilarious moments from this exchange These women are abject morons. This isn’t even a question of “oh the guys I agree with are smarter because I agree with them.” How can intelligent people on the left be satisfied with their representatives here

Many in media are highlighting the fact that this specific gun charge is rarely brought. But that’s a bit misleading: what do you expect the DOJ to do when a drug addict loses his firearm and it turns up outside of a high school after an FBI and secret service investigation? If there a reason the US outlaws drug users from owning a weapon, it’s to avoid cases such as these

I think it’s impossible not to think Mayorkas is lying here. He says individuals will be deported within “days or weeks,” but that beggars belief for two reasons: 1. How will they be removed? Via ICE raids? 2. Removing them would be contrary to ICE’s deportation policies The Biden administration enacted new standards for deportation that supposedly only focuses on violent offenders (in reality deportations have plummeted). Saying they’ll deport these new migrants run in direct conflict with ICE’s stated policy. And they didn’t announce a new one.

video ends with this woman saying she doesn't think it's safe for children to be around republican lawmakers, which is exactly the kind of rhetoric the media has a conniption over when said by a conservative activist this video is remarkable because she doesn't actually advocate for anything. her justification for opposing this bill is presumed to be self-evident, anyone who disagrees is part of some sort of world-historical evil, and the solution is to ostracize. many such cases

Two suspected illegal aliens shot and killed a bald eagle, telling authorities they planned on eating the bird for dinner. Killing a bald eagle is a federal crime but the local sheriff told @FreeBeacon that the feds seem uninterested in prosecuting
freebeacon.com/latest-news/tw… @FreeBeacon There is precedent for federal charges to be brought against bald eagle murderers. In June, a 79-year-old Tuscarawas County, Ohio, man pleaded guilty to killing a bald eagle while hunting groundhogs on his property.

who knew 5,000 new customer service agents cost $80 billion I'm trying to understand what is "neoliberal" about defending the government claiming it needs a massive amount of money without providing an exact accounting of how that money will be spent and then mocking anyone who thinks that money won't be effectively spent

The New York Times is out today with an absurd hit piece on JD Vance about how his firm invests in Rumble, which allows Russia Today to operate a channel. Somehow the reporter declined to mention @TimRyan's myriad appearances on RT.

nytimes.com/2022/10/31/us/… @TimRyan Feel like any reporter trying to smear a Republican as assisting Russia should maybe mention this stuff?

one of the things about fetterman's performance last night was that it really demystified his entire candidacy. no longer does he posses the formula to win back working class whites. instead, the election is about what every other race is about: stopping the GOP now the message from his campaign isn't really any different from a generic democrat, with some new "strength through weakness" stuff sprinkled on top. the latter is really just a product of the new democratic coalition aka college educated and beyond.

I can’t believe it’s now a right wing opinion to object to the mass consumption of brain altering chemicals produced by big pharma Idk enough about the topic — despite taking a dilettante’s interest in it — to say whether the new anti-SSRI paper holds up but there are claims in this piece that are dubious. Namely that SSRIs do not increase risk of violence when suicide is a well-established side effect.

the merits of the attacks on ketanji's record aside, it is remarkable watching journalists pretend that their role in peddling gang rape accusations against an innocent man didn't have any impact on future court proceedings i've definitely written/tweeted about this before but every six months or so (or less, hunter biden's laptop was just "confirmed real") journalists pretend they're neutral observers to the conduct of GOP politicians/voters
