‘Treated Like a Toddler’: Biden Allegedly Complained About Aides’ Response After Gaffe in Ukraine (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. President Joe Biden complained to friends that his aides “treated him like a toddler” after he made a gaffe about Russian President Vladimir Putin during a speech in Ukraine, according to a new book about Biden’s tenure in the White House.

During a trip to Ukraine in March, Biden gave an address in which he veered from his speech, saying “this man cannot remain in power,” a line that was interpreted as the president calling for a change in Russian leaders, according to Franklin Foer’s book, “The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future.” National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan reread the line to Biden as he exited the stage, and his aides later issued a statement walking back what the president had said, according to Foer.

“Biden left for home, ending his triumphalist tour, feeling sorry for himself,” Foer writes. “He knew that he had erred, then resented his aides for creating the impression that they had cleaned up his mess. Rather than owning his failure, he fumed to his friends about how he was treated like a toddler. Was John Kennedy ever babied like that?”

Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy on Tuesday asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre why the president is treated “like a baby,” in response to the book’s account.

‘No One Treats the President of the United States Like a Baby…That’s Ridiculous’: Karine Jean-Pierre Rejects Book’s Claim Biden Thought Aides Treated Him Like a ‘Toddler’ After Putin Gaffe

By Daily Mail. Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday rejected a claim made in a new book that said President Joe Biden had fumed over his aides treating him like a ‘toddler’ after his accidental call to remove Russian President Vladimir Putin from power.

In The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future, The Atlantic’s Franklin Foer wrote that Biden felt like he was being babied after he quipped that Putin ‘cannot remain in power,’ while addressing a crowd in Warsaw, Poland in March 2022.

During Tuesday’s press briefing, Fox News’ Peter Doocy pointed out that Biden, at age 80, is the ‘oldest president in U.S. history,’ and then asked why White House staff treated him like a ‘baby.’

‘No one treats the president of the United States, the commander-in-chief, like a baby,’ Jean-Pierre answered. ‘That’s ridiculous.’

The press secretary went on to say that there will always be a ‘range of books about every administration’ that are filled with a ‘variety of claims.’ (Read more from “‘No One Treats the President of the United States Like a Baby…That’s Ridiculous’: Karine Jean-Pierre Rejects Book’s Claim Biden Thought Aides Treated Him Like a ‘Toddler’ After Putin Gaffe” HERE)

White House Says North Korea Will ‘Pay a Price’ if It Supplies Russia With Weapons

/0 Comments/in , /by

White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan told reporters on Tuesday that North Korea would face consequences if it supplies Russia with weapons amid its ongoing war with Ukraine.

“Providing weapons to Russia for use on the battlefield to attack grain silos and the heating infrastructure of major cities as we head into winter to try to conquer territory that belongs to another sovereign nation,” Sullivan said. “This is not going to reflect well on North Korea, and they will pay a price for this in the international community.”

Sullivan’s remarks come after reports that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un may soon meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin to negotiate on weapons. Senior Biden administration officials told The Washington Post that Kim plans to make a rare trip out of North Korea to meet with Putin later this month.

“It says a lot that Russia is having to turn to a country like North Korea to seek to bolster its defense capacity in a war that it expected would be over a week,” he added. “That in September of 2023, it is going to North Korea to get munitions to try to continue to grind out on the battlefield in Ukraine.” (Read more from “White House Says North Korea Will ‘Pay a Price’ if It Supplies Russia With Weapons” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Cuba‘s government claims to have uncovered a Russian operation to enlist its citizens to fight in the war in Ukraine, but not everyone is convinced Havana is being honest.

A release from the Caribbean nation said criminal proceedings are underway in an effort to dismantle the human trafficking network for military recruiting purposes.

The announcement from the country’s Foreign Ministry said the operation targeted Cuban citizens living in Russia as well as in Cuba.

“Cuba plays no role in the war in Ukraine,” the statement said, according to NPR.

“It is acting and will act vigorously against whoever, from the national territory, participates in any form of human trafficking for the purposes of recruitment of mercenaries so that Cuban citizens use weapons against any country,” it added.

Dr. Jill Has COVID — But Joe Said ‘You’re Not’ Going to Get Infected if You’re Vaccinated

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden has a history of spreading misinformation about the coronavirus that spans years, making grandiose claims that vaccinated Americans would not contract the illness or spread the virus. It is a great irony, given that he has contracted the virus, and his wife, Jill Biden, tested positive for it for the second time on Monday. Both of them are vaccinated and boosted.

“This evening, the First Lady tested positive for COVID-19,” the first lady’s communications director, Elizabeth Alexander, said in a statement on Monday, adding that Jill Biden is “currently experiencing only mild symptoms” and staying at her home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

This marks the second time the first lady has tested positive for the virus, despite the fact that she is double vaccinated and twice boosted. She also tested positive for the virus in August 2022.

President Biden, who has also tested positive for the virus in the past, tested negative on Monday.

“Following the First Lady’s positive test for COVID-19, President Biden was administered a COVID test this evening,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement. “The President tested negative. The President will test at a regular cadence this week and monitor for symptoms.” (Read more from “Dr. Jill Has COVID — But Joe Said ‘You’re Not’ Going to Get Infected if You’re Vaccinated” HERE)

Majority of Republicans Not Worried About Trump Electability in Face of Indictments

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A majority of Republicans do not believe the indictments against former President Donald Trump will affect his ability to be elected in 2024, according to a new CNN poll.

Fifty-six percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents said they aren’t seriously concerned about the effect the charges will have next year if he becomes the GOP nominee. The former president has been indicted in four different cases this year, two local and two federal, that deal chiefly with his handling of classified documents and efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

A larger portion of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents indicated that even if the charges are true, they are not relevant to his ability to serve as president. Seventy percent dismissed the charges related to alleged hush money payments made to Stormy Daniels, a porn star, as irrelevant. As for the charges over classified documents, the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, and attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, 64% said they weren’t relevant.

Mask Mania Returns! White House: Biden to Cover Face Indoors

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden is masking up in indoor areas yet again following first lady Jill Biden testing positive for the coronavirus for the second time, despite being double vaccinated and twice boosted.

“President Biden tested negative last night for COVID-19 and tested negative again today,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said on Tuesday following Jill Biden testing positive for the virus on Monday.

“He’s not experiencing any symptoms,” she said, revealing that Biden will now mask up while indoors as a preventive measure, despite the fact that medical or surgical masks make “little or no difference to the outcome of influenza-like illness (ILI)/COVID-19 like illness compared to not wearing masks,” per a study from the Cochrane Library.

The study’s authors also revealed they are “very uncertain on the effects of N95/P2 respirators compared with medical/surgical masks on the outcome of clinical respiratory illness” and added that the “use of a N95/P2 respirators compared to medical/surgical masks probably makes little or no difference for the objective and more precise outcome of laboratory‐confirmed influenza infection.” (Read more from “Mask Mania Returns!

Newest NATO Country Escalates Prosecution of Christians for Quoting the Bible

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In an appeals court Thursday, Helsinki’s top prosecutor said publicly quoting the Bible and publishing a booklet about Christian sexual ethics violates Finland’s “hate speech” law. The appeal escalates this U.S. ally’s prosecution of dissidents from leftist politics, a marker of repressive regimes.

The prosecutor has charged Member of Parliament Paivi Rasanen and Bishop Juhana Pohjola for writing and publishing, respectively, a booklet supporting natural marriage.

“This [case] is a God-given wake up call for Christians and others worried about the direction our society is going,” Pohjola said in a post-court press conference Friday morning U.S. time. He noted convicting a religious leader for publishing theological documents would in effect criminalize Christianity in Finland and encourage similar oppression worldwide.

Rasanen is also criminally charged with posting a Bible verse to X (formerly Twitter) and stating Christian theology in a radio interview. The prosecutor wants all recordings of the radio interview taken down and the booklet to be unavailable online, and fines levied against both Christians.

“The content of my writings and my speeches represents the classical Christian view of marriage and sexuality, the same as the Churches have generally taught for two millennia,” Rasanen said in a statement. “I do not condone insulting, threatening or slandering anyone, and my statements have not included content of such a nature. I consider this matter to be a theological discussion that should not be in a courtroom.” (Read more from “Newest NATO Country Escalates Prosecution of Christians for Quoting the Bible” HERE)

Biden-Appointed Judge Rules Religious Parents Can’t Opt Kids Out of Pro-LGBT School Lessons

/0 Comments/in , /by

As a new school year kicks into gear, a Biden-appointed federal judge is using the legal equivalent of grade inflation to prop up the misguided efforts of a local school board to indoctrinate students with gender ideology. On Aug. 24, the U.S. District Court judge denied a requested injunction from a group of Muslim, Catholic, and Orthodox parents to opt their children out of LGBT storybook lessons, exposing the judge’s grave misunderstanding of the Supreme Court’s religious freedom jurisprudence.

A stone’s throw from Washington, D.C., Montgomery County Public Schools is one of the largest public school systems in the country, with roughly 70,000 students attending elementary school. Last fall, the Montgomery County Board of Education announced it was adopting a collection of more than 20 “LGBTQ+ inclusive” books for use in pre-K through eighth-grade classrooms.

The collection calls for pre-K students ages 3-5 to read Pride Puppy!, the story of two women who take their children to a “Pride Day” parade. A word list using the letters of the alphabet to show what a child might see includes the words “leather,” “underwear,” and “[drag] queen.”

Fifth graders — typically 10- and 11-year-old children — will read Born Ready: The True Story of a Boy Named Penelope, about an elementary school-aged girl who tells her mother, “I don’t feel like a boy. I AM a boy.” Her mother agrees to tell their family “that we know … You are a boy.” But when Penelope’s brother protests, “You can’t become a boy. You have to be born one,” he’s told that “not everything needs to make sense. This is about love.” (Read more from “Biden-Appointed Judge Rules Religious Parents Can’t Opt Kids Out of Pro-LGBT School Lessons” HERE)

White House Said Biden Would Mask Indoors When Near Other People — But Then the President Awarded the Medal of Honor While Maskless

/0 Comments/in , /by

First lady Jill Biden tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday, but White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said on Tuesday that President Joe Biden had tested negative for COVID-19 on Monday night and again on Tuesday. She also said that the president is not feeling any symptoms and will wear a face mask while indoors near other people, but will take the mask off when adequately distanced from other individuals.

“This evening, the First Lady tested positive for COVID-19,” Jill Biden’s communications director, Elizabeth Alexander, noted in a statement on Monday. “She is currently experiencing only mild symptoms. She will remain at their home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.”

The first lady previously had a bout with COVID-19 last year. In August 2022, Alexander had issued a statement noting that the “double-vaccinated, twice boosted” first lady had tested positive.

Jill Biden later tested negative before testing positive again. “This represents a ‘rebound’ positivity,” the first lady’s deputy communications director, Kelsey Donohue, said in an August 2022 statement. “The First Lady has experienced no reemergence of symptoms,” Donohue noted.

Man Who Claims to Have Had Sex, Smoked Crack With Obama Stars in Latest Tucker Interview (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

A man who claims to have had sex and smoked crack with former President Barack Obama is the star of Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson’s latest episode of “Tucker on Twitter.”

Larry Sinclair, the man making these claims, told Carlson he met then-37-year-old Obama in a bar in 1999 and paid him $250 to buy cocaine. He alleged he lined the cocaine on a CD tray inside a limousine and engaged in sexual conduct after rubbing his hand along Obama’s thigh.

Sinclair alleged he had sex and smoked crack with Obama twice before he had known who he was.

“I start putting a line on a CD tray to snort and next thing I know, he’s got a little pipe and he’s smoking,” Sinclair alleged to Carlson. “I started rubbing my hand along his thigh to see where it was going and it went the direction I had intended it to go.”

“It definitely wasn’t Barack’s first time and I would almost be willing to bet you it wasn’t his last,” Sinclair said. (Read more from “Man Who Claims to Have Had Sex, Smoked Crack With Obama Stars in Latest Tucker Interview (VIDEO)” HERE)
