Biden Announces
Joe Biden announced he is running for reelection with Kamala Harris as his running mate. The unsurprising news was announced in a three-minute video that never mentioned any of his first-term accomplishments or an agenda for his second term. Joe Biden will be 82 years old on election day.
In 1972, a 29-year-old Joe Biden badgered his 63-year-old opponent over his age so badly a local paper deemed his approach, “Dear old dad.” Go read the story at CNN.
Reminder: CBS released a poll today that reinforces countless previous polls: Democrats simply don’t want Biden. The poll concludes that while most Democrats will reluctantly vote for him, the majority of the party thinks he is too old and “thinks it is time for someone new.” A parallel poll from NBC revealed that 70% of Americans don’t want Biden to run and 60% of Americans don’t want Trump to run.
Oops: A quote from Biden’s speech in the Rose Garden yesterday is making waves and overshadowing his campaign announcement. Here’s the quote and the video link:
"There's no such thing as someone else's child. No such thing as someone else's child. Our nation's children are all our children."

Context: The Willis investigation has spanned two years, dozens of witnesses, and millions of taxpayer dollars.
Left Wing Mobs Montana
The Montana state house has been taken over by left-wing protesters up in arms over a Republican bill banning sex change surgeries for minors. The protestors controlled the chambers for about 30 minutes before riot police were dispatched.
What happened: A transgender state house member claimed Republicans had blood on their hands for banning sex change surgeries for minors. The Republican majority censored the house member which brought in left-wing protestors. Full story at Fox News.
