WATCH: Joe Biden Calls Female Voter ‘a Lying, Dog-Faced Pony Soldier’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Presidential contender Joe Biden jokingly called a college student in New Hampshire a “lying, dog-faced pony soldier” during a campaign event on Sunday, just two months after he unloaded on an Iowa voter whom he called a “damn liar” and days after he dryly instructed a climate activist to “go vote for someone else.”

The campaign trail headscratchers came as Biden, 77, has gone on the offensive following his disappointing fourth-place finish in last week’s disastrous Iowa caucuses, well behind rivals Pete Buttigieg, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

The student, Madison, of Mercer University in Georgia, began by asking Biden how he could remain competitive in the race after that performance.

“It’s a good question,” Biden responded. “Number one: Iowa’s a democratic caucus. You ever been to a caucus? No you haven’t. You’re a lying, dog-faced pony soldier. You said you were; but now you got to be honest. I’m gonna be honest with you. It was a little bit confusing in Iowa.” . . .

George Washington University law professor and GOP impeachment witness Jonathan Turley added: “Hmmm, Biden does not appear to be confining his ‘go negative’ strategy to [Pete] Buttigieg, but seems to think it will work with voters. Calling a voter ‘a lying dog-faced pony soldier’ must be a new voter suppression strategy by targeting your own voters.”

Joe Biden Kisses Granddaughter on Lips During Iowa Rally

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden gave his 19-year-old granddaughter a kiss on the lips during a campaign rally in Iowa on Sunday, prompting some grossed-out responses on social media.

The former vice president entered the event at Clarke University in Dubuque holding the hand of Finnegan Biden, the daughter of his son Hunter.

“I would like to introduce you to my granddaughter Finnegan Biden. The reason I asked Finnegan — grandfathers are always allowed to embarrass their granddaughters — that goes along with the territory,” said Biden, 77, his hand over her shoulder. “Her other grandma graduated from Clarke College in the mid-’60s and talks about it all the time.”

He then described the difference between daughters and granddaughters to the crowd as he walked around the stage before circling back to Finnegan.

“But granddaughters not only love their grandpops but they like them. And that’s the great thing. Thank you, baby,” he said before giving her a quick peck on the lips. (Read more from “Joe Biden Kisses Granddaughter on Lips During Iowa Rally” HERE)

Flashback: Biden Argued Additional Witnesses Were Unnecessary During Clinton Impeachment Trial; High-Profile Sanders Supporter Revives Biden’s Plagiarism Scandal

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. Joe Biden argued that additional witnesses were not necessary during the impeachment trial of former President Bill Clinton.

Politico reported on Thursday that Biden, at the time a long-serving U.S. Senator from Delaware, penned a memo to his congressional colleagues ahead of Clinton’s impeachment trial in January 1999. In the memo, Biden argued that the Senate was not constitutionally required to hold an actual trial to examine Clinton’s alleged misdeeds.

“The Senate may dismiss articles of impeachment without holding a full trial or taking new evidence,” Biden wrote. “Put another way, the Constitution does not impose on the Senate the duty to hold a trial.”

Biden, who chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s, cited both historical and institutional precedent within the four-page memo. He also disputed the need for the Senate to call additional witnesses, claiming the “benefit … is not great enough to outweigh the public costs,” including the damage to national prestige and public institutions.

“In a number of previous impeachment trials, the Senate has reached the judgment that its constitutional role as a sole trier of impeachments does not require it to take new evidence or hear live witness testimony,” Biden wrote.

High-Profile Sanders Supporter Revives Biden’s Plagiarism Scandal Days Before Iowa Caucuses

By Fox News. A surrogate for Sen. Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign revived the plagiarism scandal that derailed former Vice President Joe Biden’s first presidential campaign in 1988 just days before the Iowa caucuses.

Liberal activist Shaun King shared a video showing media coverage of the plagiarism charges that were leveled against the then senator as he was vying for the Democratic nomination.

Biden was accused of lifting rhetoric from then-British Labor Party leader Neil Kinnock in three separate instances at a Democratic debate at the Iowa State Fair. He later conceded that he should have said that he was “paraphrasing” Kinnock at the time he said those remarks. He was later accused of using statements from the late Robert F. Kennedy as his own in another speech. It was reported at the time that he either “quoted or paraphrased” John F. Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey “without credit.”

The 1988 hopeful also admitted to plagiarism for a paper in law school. (Read more from “High-Profile Sanders Supporter Revives Biden’s Plagiarism Scandal Days Before Iowa Caucuses” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Daily Wire. Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden snapped at a voter in Iowa in Tuesday as the 77-year-old candidate put his hands on the man and told him to go vote for someone else.

“I’m going to support you if you win the nomination because we got to get rid of Trump but what are we going to do about climate change?” the man asked Biden. “Now, you say you are against pipelines, but then you want to replace these gas lines, that’s not going to work.” . . .

Biden put his hand on the man’s chest and gently pushed him away, telling the man, “go vote for someone else.”

“You’re not going to vote for me in the primary,” Biden said after the man appeared to express shock with his facial gestures.

“I’m going to vote for you in the general if you treat me right,” the man responded.

Biden Takes Heat After Sparring With Iowa Voter Who Challenged Him on Climate Change

By Fox News. Joe Biden came under fire Tuesday from 2020 rival Tom Steyer after a video surfaced of him telling a man in Iowa to “go vote for someone else” when the man challenged him on his energy policies in the Hawkeye State. . .

The exchange went viral online after video from journalist Zaid Jilani surfaced, and it soon brought criticism from Steyer, who said it was “no way to treat an Iowan.”

“He said he’d vote for the Dem in the general [because] he knows how important it is to beat Trump,” Steyer tweeted Tuesday. We need immediate action on climate. If you don’t agree, happy to talk @ debate.”

“But don’t take it out on voters we need to win in [November],” he added.

Biden on Minority Support: ‘I Was Raised in the Black Church’

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Washington Examiner. Joe Biden spoke of his connection to black voters at an NAACP event Sunday afternoon and claimed his “political identity” was molded by minorities in his home state of Delaware.

“I have a lot of black support because that’s where I come from. I was raised in the black church, politically, not a joke,” the former vice president said in Des Moines. “When I got into politics, I was the only white guy working on the east side, in the projects, because these were the guys I grew up with. These were the guys I worked with.” . . .

He spoke extensively on his consistent support from black Democrats, which a number of polls show back him by double-digits over his rivals. That consistent support, Biden said, was because of his decades-long relationship with black voters that started when he was a city council member in Wilmington, Delaware. During his time as a local politician, Biden said he would “go to a black church after regular mass every Sunday.” (Read more from “Biden on Minority Support: ‘I Was Raised in the Black Church'” HERE)

Hunter Biden Agrees to Temporary Child Support Settlement for Ex-Stripper Baby Mama

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden has reportedly agreed to pay a temporary child support settlement to the ex-stripper mother of his child.

The son of former Vice President Joe Biden agreed to begin paying monthly child support as well as back payments starting from Nov. 1, 2018 to his former lover Lunden Alexis Roberts, with whom he has a 1-year-old child, per Page Six in a piece published Monday. The temporary amount was not disclosed.

Biden must submit financial records by March 1 at which time the court has reserved the “right to retroactively or modify child support” based off that information and set the final amount.

In November 2019, DNA test results revealed Biden was indeed the father of Roberts’ child. Hunter initially denied the allegations back in August and requested that the court dismiss the allegations altogether.

WATCH: Joe Biden Gets Defensive When Asked About How He Got the Ukrainian Prosecutor Fired

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Townhall. Former Vice President Joe Biden was asked about his shady dealings in Ukraine during an interview with New Hampshire’s WMUR-TV over the weekend.

“What about that council on foreign relations video, where you’re bragging about getting the prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, fired?” WMUR’s reporter asked. “If average Joe, and not Joe Biden, is watching that, how do they tell the difference between that kind of pressure that you exerted and the pressure that the president exerted?”

“Because I was exerting the pressure of the United States government, the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the European Union and all of our allies,” Biden immediately replied. “All of them. Because the guy was corrupt. And I was the one who went to their Parlament and said it’s time for you to stand up and stop the corruption. You have a chance to break out of this now. That’s what that was about.”

Joe Biden Ducks Questions About Conflict of Interest in Ukraine

By Breitbart. Former Vice President Joe Biden claimed in an interview set to air Sunday morning that no one had been able to point to anything he had done wrong in Ukraine.

Biden told Manchester, New Hampshire’s WMUR-9:

My case has already been made. There’s not a single solitary person in this administration who said I did anything other than my job. Not anybody in the United States of America that has been involved at all. Not anybody abroad … I did my job, and I did it really well. The problem is here, this is all about Trump’s ability to take the focus off.

Joe Biden Claims Transgender Equality Is the ‘Civil Rights Movement of Our Time’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Vice President Joe Biden is trying to capitalize off of a rift between Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) supporters over a quasi-endorsement from comedian and podcaster Joe Rogan by announcing his unqualified support for “trangender equality” in a tweet.

“Transgender equality is the civil rights issue of our time,” Biden said on social media Saturday night. “There is no room for compromise when it comes to basic human rights.”

Biden did not elaborate on what he belives constitutes “transgender equality,” and what he considers “compromise” on the issue, nor did he mention either Sanders or Rogan by name, but the reference was clear to those progressives currently battling over whether Sanders was right to Rogan’s support on his own social media profiles.

The statement isn’t necessarily a departure for Biden who, back in April, mentioned that he would support the “Equality Act,” a Democrat-authored House bill that would amend the 1964 Civil Rights act to outlaw discrimination based on “sexual orientation and gender identity.” That bill is controversial, as it includes language designed to compel public schools to allow transgender individuals who identify as female (but who are biologically male) to compete against female athletes on female-only sports teams.

Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) one of the bill’s more prominent sponsors, made it clear that expanding “access” to transgender athletes is a key element of the bill, denying biological reality: “Many states have sexual orientation and gender identity nondiscrimination laws, and all of them still have women’s sports. Arguments about transgender athletes participating in sports in accordance with their gender identity having competitive advantages have not been borne out.” (Read more from “Joe Biden Claims Transgender Equality Is the ‘Civil Rights Movement of Our Time'” HERE)

WATCH: Joe Biden Snaps on Reporter, Gets Physical Over Bernie Feud

/0 Comments/in , /by

At a campaign event in Iowa on Wednesday, Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden lost his cool when a reporter asked him about his apparent feud with fellow candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

“Yesterday, yesterday, you said you accepted Bernie’s apology. Now you’re attacking him. Why are you doing that?” CBS reporter Ed O’Keefe asked Biden, according to The New York Post. “Why wasn’t his apology enough, Mr. Vice President? Why attack Sanders?”

An agitated Biden walked toward the reporter, placed his hands on O’Keefe’s chest, and mockingly shouted, “Why, why, why, why, why, why, why! You’re getting nervous, man. Calm down! It’s okay!”

The Democrat then complained that Sanders only “apologized for saying that I was corrupt, he didn’t mention anything about whether or not I was telling the truth about Social Security.”

The former VP, with a clenched fist, gave O’Keefe a light punch on the chest before turning around and leaving the area.

Joe Biden Doesn’t Think Drunk Driving Should Be a Felony

/0 Comments/in , /by

2020 Democratic front-runner Joe Biden said his administration would fire Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who arrest and deport illegal immigrants who are not guilty of felony crimes, adding that he doesn’t “count drunk driving as a felony.” . . .

“They go off to school wondering whether their mom comes and picks them up [or] if she’s not going to be there because an ICE agent was there to arrest her. Or she takes him to the doctor, that she’s going to not be there because she is ‘undocumented’ and an ICE agent is going to pick him up,” he said.

“You change the culture by saying you are going to get fired. you are fired if, in fact, you do that. You only arrest for the purpose of dealing with a felony that’s committed, and I don’t count drunk driving as a felony,” he added.
