#1 - Biden Starts Yapping at the Teleprompter Guy During Confused and Embarrassing Speech — by Bonchie

Another day, another confused and embarrassing performance from the current White House resident. 

Greek Independence Day was the occasion on Thursday, with Joe Biden hosting a reception in the East Room. Why Greek Independence Day is an event worthy of a White House reception wasn't immediately clear, and neither was anything the president said. 

Right on cue, Biden did his faux Forrest Gump routine where he inserts himself into every aspect of every culture. It's fitting that just two days before this speech, the president repeated a tall tale about being raised by the Puerto Rican community. Biden has also made similar claims regarding the Jewish and Black communities. There's almost no ethnicity he won't appropriate in some manner.

#2 - Biden Shows Up at Noon -- an Hour Late for Event -- and Here's Why People Think He Overslept — by Nick Arama

Biden was late to the event which was supposed to be at 11 a.m. He kept Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and the health care advocates who attended the even waiting for an hour before he bothered to appear. He didn't show up until around 12 p.m. And when he showed up finally, people noticed that he had CPAP strap marks still very evident on his face. 

He supposedly sleeps with a CPAP machine helping him because he has sleep apnea. 

But if he's showing up at that time with the straps still evident on his face, then one has to concluded it's very likely he overslept. Fox's Jesse Watters made this point.

#3 - Judge's Daughter Linked to Democrats Raising $93 Million Amid Trump Trial, Recusal Calls Intensify — by Brittany Sheehan

The daughter of the judge presiding over Donald Trump’s New York hush-money trial has two significant Democratic clients who have raised over $93 million in campaign donations by fundraising off the criminal case. These clients, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and the Senate Majority PAC, are clients of Authentic Campaigns, a Chicago-based progressive political consulting firm where Loren Merchan, the daughter of Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan, is president. 

In August, Merchan rejected Trump's first recusal motion, but Trump spokesman Steven Chung says the evidence of bias is even clearer now, telling the New York Post, "Authentic Campaigns, and thus the judge’s daughter, is actively making money from this sham attack against President Trump, rendering Judge Merchan conflicted out."

Adam Schiff’s Senate campaign has garnered a staggering $20 million in donations since it started seeking contributions based on Trump’s 34-count indictment last April, per Federal Election Commission records.

#4 - RedState Sports Report: Caitlin Clark Shows Out After LSU Shows No Class — by Jerry Wilson 

Clark’s impact on women’s college basketball and women’s sports period is impossible to overstate. She is a genuine pop culture phenomenon as opposed to the fictitious and factious kind, a/k/a “influencers.” She is the real deal who has made her fame by showing what only hard work can accomplish. Clark is arguably America’s sweetheart, not because of media hype but a natural outgrowth of her unaffected Midwest earthiness and embodiment of how a strong work ethic will bring about the desired results. She has captured the public imagination and shows no signs of self-destruction. 

Clark is a generational talent who has again ascended to the big stage. Last year’s Iowa-LSU championship game drew nearly ten million TV viewers. While, as of this writing, the ratings for the just-concluded April 1, 2024 rematch are not in, it would not be a surprise if it shows an even higher total. Caitlin Clark has made the NCAA men’s basketball tournament close to an afterthought, and there is more to come.

#5 - Biden Loses Badly to Teleprompter, KJP Tries to Clean It Up and Gets Busted in the Attempt — by Nick Arama 

Does she forget we can see everything he's saying? Trying to clean it up like that just makes her look like she's trying to cover up his issues. 

Plus, Biden hasn't truly been taking on Big Pharma. That's big nonsense. He's the same guy who mandated people be vaccinated in a win for Big Pharma and tossed people out of their jobs in the military if they wouldn't do it. 

I just don't get how he has a great big teleprompter to tell him exactly what to say. Yet each day, he can never get it right, he's always messing up or falling into confusion. He's reading here and then he completely loses what it is he's supposed to say.
