Looks Like One of Biden's Tall Tales About His Background Just Got Called Out...by Joe Biden
I have to think there's some issue he has that causes him to do this, to exaggerate so much about his background tin order to pump himself up.
There's such an overinflated sense of self-importance in everything the media does, when they don't realize that the most important thing they can do is to report on things truthfully, accurately, objectively and in context while letting the viewer/reader form their own opinions about the statements being made.
Joe Biden Rages Against Israel, Throws Ally Under the Bus After Aid Workers Are Killed
Biden demanded "accountability" and further proclaimed that "incidents like yesterday's simply should not happen." Of course, when a nation is fighting a hot war, incidents like the one that occurred will happen. They are unavoidable. Do you know who should know that better than anyone? That would be one Joseph R. Biden, who droned seven children during his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.
WHAT'S ON TAP?
Today on Capitol Hill...
As Congress heads into the home stretch of its Easter Recess, things remain somewhat muted on Capitol Hill, but there's still some jockeying going on. There are hints that the upcoming contest to replace Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) for Senate Minority Leader might include a surprise candidate or two.
White House What's Up
After a quiet Tuesday (other than throwing Israel under the bus), President Joe Biden's Wednesday schedule includes a speech on lowering healthcare costs. Sure to be riveting.
Full Court Press...
Texas immigration bill SB4 (aimed at allowing local and state law enforcement officials to arrest and detain those suspected of being in the country illegally) has another day in court Wednesday. Oral argument on the merits of the law is set before the Fifth Circuit in the morning.
MORNING MUSING
On this day in 2010, Apple released the first-generation iPad. Am I the only one who feels like that was longer than 14 years ago? I had one — still do, but it's not been fired up in a long time. And actually, mine may be second-gen — I'm rarely an early adopter. But somehow, the interest in it waned. Between the laptop and phone, it feels like there's little need for the tablet. #FirstWorldProblems, I guess.
