"Breaking" news: Joe Biden gave an interview to The New Yorker.
As you might anticipate, it wasn't exactly hard-hitting and was more of an homage than it was a piece calling him out on any of the many questionable things that he's said. It even claimed that Biden had been "exonerated" by Special Counsel Robert Hur. No, sorry, not prosecuting because he's an "elderly man with a poor memory" is not "exonerated," it's simply choosing not to prosecute.
There's a lot in there, but one thing that's particularly offensive is Biden's attack on Justice Clarence Thomas and his comments on abortion.
Then, reiterating his position on Roe, he said, “I’ve never been supportive of, you know, ‘It’s my body, I can do what I want with it.’ But I have been supportive of the notion that this is probably the most rational allocation of responsibility that all the major religions have signed on and debated over the last thousand years.”
What? "All major religions have signed on?" No, that's simply not factual, yet that's not even questioned in the article. That's a bizarre, demonstrable untruth.
The piece then mentions Thomas' concurring opinion in the Dobbs case. The author says he asked Biden if he thought the Justices would undo other rulings dealing with same-sex marriage and contraception.
“I don’t think there’s a majority to go there,” he said, but added, “I think that a couple on the Court would go considerably further”—specifically “the guy who likes to spend a lot of time on yachts.”
“Thomas?” I asked.
Biden grinned.
Once again, we see the guy who claims he's trying to protect "democracy" attack every principle that underpins our operation as a nation. It is completely improper for him to be attacking a justice. But he's doing that on the head of the Democrats, improperly trying to slime Thomas for some time in their efforts to run him out. It's disgusting, even including their lies about his wife and Jan. 6. Biden says this thinking it will appeal to the leftist base, with which he is in some trouble and which he needs desperately to come out for him in November. He grins, and he thinks it's funny.
But it also sounds like Biden forgot Thomas' name when he defines him this way.
Biden has a long history of going after Thomas. It was he who set off the "high-tech lynching" years ago, and the Democrats are trying it again. Thomas just decimated him.

Joe Biden and other members of the democrats of Congress in 1991 literally put Justice Clarence Thomas through a high-tech lynching. Thomas even said so himself. https://t.co/4te1BLMx0e https://t.co/2JjuUrmEL7 pic.twitter.com/JoDCwMuQgh
Just another example of Biden being constantly wrong.
But has Biden looked in the mirror? Seriously? Has he checked the millions that his family got from all kinds of foreign nationals? He should be the last one to talk about any such things. The hypocrisy is something to behold.
If he wants to talk about Thomas going on yachts, let's talk about the many vacations that he, Biden, has taken in the homes of rich donors from Nantucket to St. Croix. Or does he get a pass because of the "magical D" after his name? There have been questions about his stays in these homes and if he's paying fair market value by being there, but media and the left doesn't seem to care when it comes to Biden. The impeachment inquiry should be looking at things like this as well, since Biden is raising the question.
