'Biden accuser Tara Reade: 'If something happens to me, all roads lead to Joe Biden''
Tara Reade, who says President Joe Biden sexually assaulted her in the 1990s when she worked in his U.S. Senate office, posted a cryptic message about what should happen if she dies.
"I want to make something clear. If something happens to me, all roads lead to Joe Biden," Reade tweeted Sunday. "Joe Biden and DNC political machine threats, bullying and intimidation over the last three years will not work.
She also said that she is not suicidal, nor a foreign agent and she only decided to tell the truth and testify under oath in Congress about her experience working for Biden.
The president has denied allegations of the assault since Reade came forward in 2020 about it.'
https://justthenews.com/government/white-house/bid...Yep, Tara Reade accused Biden of molesting her, but of course it was buried by the MSM, and who knows what went on behind 'closed doors' by Biden's handlers.
Of course though normal America knows Biden cannot keep his hands off of women, even little girls sniffing their hair and cannot keep his hands off them.

Of course though normal America knows Biden cannot keep his hands off of women, even little girls sniffing their hair and cannot keep his hands off them.Buried by the MSM? The New York Times thoroughly investigated her allegations, interviewing anyone and everyone:
Reid said she told Biden's executive assistant Marianne Baker, as well as to two top aides, Dennis Toner and Ted Kaufman, about harassment by Biden. They all denied she ever spoke with them.
Baker said:
"I never once witnessed, or heard of, or received, any reports of inappropriate conduct, period ' not from Ms. Reade, not from anyone. I have absolutely no knowledge or memory of Ms. Reade's accounting of events, which would have left a searing impression on me as a woman professional, and as a manager.Toner said:
'It's just so preposterous that Senator Biden would be faced with these allegations. I don't remember her. I don't remember this conversation. And I would remember this conversation.'Kaufman said:
'I did not know her. She did not come to me. If she had, I would have remembered her.'The New York Times:
No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of reporting, nor did any former Biden staff members corroborate any details of Ms. Reade's allegation. The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden.Wow, the Trump Cult's desperation is off the charts since The Orange Insurrectionist was found liable for sexual abuse.

To be fair to the other poster, they get their info from dubious sources that are more interested in telling people what they want to hear. Without expanding their "feed" to other sources, you can't expect that they will be well-informed.
Fox, and other sources, rely on the fact that people like being told what they already believe. Whether it's true or not is immaterial. Which is a huge problem in a democracy. You need an informed populace, or it all falls apart (as we are seeing).

I'm afraid of an ill-informed public. They end up voting for disasters (like Trump). Fox just got their asses handed to them (though they are trying to spin it as a positive), and I believe another suit is waiting in the wings. They'll probably get their asses handed to them again.
I haven't seen much polling lately, so can't comment. But Biden isn't in the top 10 of the worst POTUSes. Trump has to be #1 or #2. Jackson is among the top of the worst. A few lesser-knowns like Andrew Johnson and Buchanan and Taylor make the lists. Depends whom you ask, of course. But those names consistently appear in the top.
Biden has actually gotten some good things done. He wasn't my first choice in the primaries, but he's been as I expected: a moderate who know how the system works. He'll probably go down in history somewhere in the middle of POTUSes.

Wait wut?
No, Biden supporters are not "ashamed of him". That's complete nonsense. And ashamed of what, exactly? Of 12.7 million jobs added? Of the lowest unemployment rate in 50 years? Of the lowest Black unemployment rate in history? Of working to pass the first bipartisan gun safety legislation in 30 years? Of working to pass the most consequential bipartisan infrastructure bill in modern history? Of working to pass the CHIPS and Science Act? Of working to pass the PACT Act?
LurkerMom: Biden is the worst President ever.
Biden has delivered ENORMOUS successes.
Seriously, which of those accomplishments do you object to?
Former president Trump ranks in the bottom 10 of presidential rankings by C-SPAN (41st), Voice of America ranks Trump 41st, Siena College ranks Trump 43rd (only A. Johnson and Buchanan are ranked worse) while they rank Biden 19th.
And if the past several elections have taught us anything, it is that polls are meaningless.
So what is the main complaint about Biden running for reelection: an 80-year-old Biden is too old to run again? Well, does that mean you agree that a 77-year-old Trump is too old to run as well?

If you think Trump is #1 or #2, then you don't follow US history much.
Buchanan is far and away the worst President ever. #2 is Woodrow Wilson with #3 Andrew Johnson.
Joe Biden hasn't done anything in office but preside over millions of COVID deaths, rampant inflation, cultural decline, a debasement of the currency and a general withdrawal from the world stage. It beggars belief that anyone could consider a guy who is clearly suffering from dementia and who works maybe half the time to be a good President.

Biden is the worst President ever.So it appears to your Trump-idolizing eyes, but there are many who find his presidency to have accomplished a substantial menu of important items, although it could have been significantly more if not for the maga-maniacs in Congress.
And many of those who are very positive about Biden's presidency still feel....understandably.....that his age creates too high a risk of significant health issues arising during a 2nd term. And there are some who don't want him to run again because they don't think that Kamala Harris would be effective if she had to take over the presidency.
In reality.....which, unfortunately, is not something you have much of a working relatioship with.....Trump is considered to be among the worst presidents this country has ever had, or the worst.

LurkerMom: ...contagious diseases...
Well, let's look at the data. Since your link specifically mentions tuberculosis, let's look there.
In 2022, there were 8,300 TB cases reported in the United States. In 2018, when your savior Jesus Trump was in office there were 8,998 cases of TB in the U.S. In 2011, there were 10,474 cases. In 2005, 14,053. In 1990, 25,701.
Do you see a pattern here?
If not, you're in the Trump Cult.
LurkerMom: Migrant minor work slaves.
Umm. Where are these children working, exactly?
From your link: As part of their investigation, officials found that Louisville, Kentucky-based McDonald's franchisee operator, Bauer Food LLC, hired two10-year old's [NOTE: two typos, nice article] to work at one of its locations -- unpaid -- and as late as 2 a.m.
Also note: Kentucky is fine with 14-year-old children working.
Other children were found working in companies in Indiana, Tennessee and Ohio.
LurkerMom: ...85,000 now missing migrant children...
Well, I guess it was better to lock them in cages, like Trump and Miller. Remind me, you defended that policy, right?
But back on point, I agree that's bad. And should be resolved as quickly as possible. The Biden administration asked Congress for more money and the assistance of Congress to find a solution. The republicans said no money and the solution is to keep those little brown kids out of America.
So to recap, cases of TB are WAY DOWN and have been trending down for years. Red states love child labor, pass laws to let children work younger or without federal government oversight, and the Biden administration let children into the United States rather than cage them but failed miserably in tracking them.
So, okay, I guess I'll change my vote to the twice impeached sexual abuser, who stole thousands of government documents (including many classified top secret), refused to comply with a subpoena for their return, obstructed the investigation, pressured his VP to overturn a free and fair election, pressured Georgia officials to overturn their presidential election, was indicted in New York on 34-felony counts, and planned an insurrection to block the electoral vote count in an attempt to remain in office despite losing the presidential election.

85,000 now missing migrant children,

Migrant minor work slaves.
The list goes on.
Looking at the links you posted that are supposed to support your assertions of Biden's incompetence doesn't exactly present a rousing defense.
abcnews does talk about children being employed at fast-food places, etc, who are underage, but there isn't a single word about their being migrant kids. Comments are made about kids working in the evening after their school day, etc etc. The issue is the illegal hiring of underaged children, including giving some of them responsibilities handling dangerous equipment. But "illegal" is applied to the work the children have been hired to do, not with their presence in the UlS.
And the article on the 85,000 "missing migrant children" makes the concrete point that it is not a question of children who have somehow disappeared and cannot be found. It is unaccompanied children who were all cared for until they could be placed with a parental substitute....another family member already here or a vetted sponsor..... The requisite follow-up phone call a month after release was not successful in those cases. And as far-right Republican Andy Biggs said to the person in charge of this: 'I'm not saying you lost them, I'm saying we lost contact with them." (The actual data were uncovered by the NYT.)

They help. They find the knots and other issues, and then dig in to release them. Really hurts. I don't like it. But I like the aftermath. After my heel healed, I still wasn't walking right. The therapist found a muscle that was locked-up, and after a few sessions she made it release. Voila. Walking normally again.

Trump's Latest Dinner Guest: Nick Fuentes, White Supremacist
The former president's table for four at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday also included Kanye West, whose antisemitic statements have made him an entertainment-industry outcast.
Former President Donald J. Trump on Tuesday night had dinner with Nick Fuentes, an outspoken antisemite and racist who is one of the country's most prominent young white supremacists, at Mr. Trump's private club in Florida, advisers to Mr. Trump conceded on Friday.
Also at the dinner was the performer Kanye West, who has also been denounced for making antisemitic statements. Mr. West traveled to meet with Mr. Trump at the club, Mar-a-Lago, and brought Mr. Fuentes along, the advisers said.
