Joseph R. Biden, a former vice president and senator, was sworn in as the 46th President of the United States at 11:49 a.m. President Biden immediately signed multiple executive orders reversing policies (immigration, travel bans, climate action) put into place by his predecessor President Donald Trump. Before the Bidens officially entered the White House as the new First Couple, there was a brief walk down Pennsylvania Avenue. Attendance was extremely limited due to the coronavirus pandemic. The new Vice President of the United States Kamala Harris also walked the route. Lady Gaga won the day on the entertainment front. Her rendition of The Star Spangled Banner was magnificent. Three former presidents attended the inauguration ceremony. An additional event brought them together with President Biden and

“Too many people went to sleep” during Obama’s second term, time to reawaken with Biden
Barack Obama has released a new book reflecting upon his two terms as President of the United States. In it, he lauds many accomplishments and critiques some issues that fell short. VOX book review "Again and again, he concludes he always made the best of a set of bad choices." With a Joe Biden presidency on the horizon, pundits are sounding alarms that America needs to awaken to recapture the spirit of the Obama era. Obama’s #APromisedLand shows how he got there & left most of his people behind. It shatters any lingering illusions of him being a fighting Joshua & shows his captivity to Wall Street greed, Pentagon militarism & refusal to confront massive black social misery & U.S. poverty! https://t.co/aV6njYZSll — Cornel
Don on Don and his credulous boomer rubes
Damn, Don. pic.twitter.com/7WJXuV8tn4— Timothy Burke (@bubbaprog) May 4, 2020 Here's another #FeelTheBern from Don Lemon on CNN. It follows comments by President Donald Trump blaming his predecessor President Barack Obama for feckless leadership during a smaller pandemic 12 years ago. Lemon, who is black and gay, throws every fireball he can at the sitting president. 🔥 Donald Trump usually reacts to Lemon's media slams. This one is from January following Don Lemon's CNN guests mocking Trump fans as "credulous boomer rubes" with thick southern accents who can't read maps or string together complete sentences. Don Lemon, the dumbest man on television (with terrible ratings!). https://t.co/iQXCc7lvCt— Donald J.

Media vs Trump jumps new shark, Orange Man assumes he is King of USA
Oh look! Time for another presidential press conference! Because the media won't acknowledge it themselves, Trump just showed a video laying out the timeline of his administration's action on coronavirus and made the media sit through it in the briefing, watching their own networks' words.Savage. pic.twitter.com/03ND2iahOK— Caleb Hull (@CalebJHull) April 13, 2020 At his daily combative press briefing to address COVID-19 issues, President Donald Trump played video clips highlighting media voices that affirm his coronavirus response timeline claims. It was an unusual pushback against the daily hostility media and Trump sling at each other. pic.twitter.com/6fEymjTjUM— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 14, 2020 Fascinating theater. As expected, the media was not pleased. CNN called Trump's truth reel propaganda even though it contained their
Democrat supporter Harvey Weinstein convicted of rape, news outlets scramble to find photos of him with Trump
Movie mogul Harvey Weinstein was convicted of rape today. He was immediately hauled to Rikers Island to await sentencing, complaining that he is innocent and asking "How can this happen in America." Weinstein faces another rape trial in California. Over 90 women have accused him of sexual assault. None of this prolonged legal drama is good for his beloved Democrat party. Michelle Obama praising Harvey Weinstein pic.twitter.com/VCaF480Pv3— Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) February 24, 2020 Even though Weinstein regularly funded Democrat causes, many media outlets are inclined to show photos of Donald and Melania Trump exchanging party pleasantries with Weinstein. Because impartiality, right?

Rep. Yarmuth inspects U.S. immigration facilities at El Paso, wonders why fellow Dems are pounding on Obama
📻 @RepJohnYarmuth inspects migrant conditions on the U.S.🇺🇸-Mexico🇲🇽 border, also: should @AmyMcGrathKy skip #FancyFarm and why are @TheDemocrats crushing Obama? #immigration #ICE #election2020 🎙️ LISTEN https://t.co/8Bo4M7RQA3 #kypolitics #kysen @840WHAS pic.twitter.com/YoPLJcQ60K— Terry Meiners (@terrymeiners) August 2, 2019 Congressman John Yarmuth (KY-3) spoke on my radio show from the El Paso, Texas airport after inspecting the holding facilities for illegal immigrants. Yarmuth reported that the housing situation was clean and lightly inhabited, a scenario he suspected had been tidied up before the arrival of the congressional delegation. Yarmuth also talked about the shocking specter of debating Democrats trashing Barack Obama for not being "woke" enough during his 8 years in the presidency. Many of the current presidential hopefuls are going to extreme measures
The Squad would never endorse Barack Obama today
Flashback Clip of the Day: In 2014, @BarackObama says crime and poverty do not justify an asylum claim pic.twitter.com/SorutFTXL9— Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) July 15, 2019 No way Barack Obama could win the approval of progressive Democrats today. Listen to his 2014 comments on migrants seeking asylum based on crime and poverty in their homeland. B.O. ain't WOKE, y'all. The Squad (aka Jihad Squad, Facade Squad, Sistah Squad, and a thousand other names) or Reps. Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Ayanna Pressley are dragging older Democrat leaders like Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden to the far left, a losing strategy. Omar has a Twitter trail of anti-Semitic comments. Tlaib, too, casts aspersions upon supporters of Israel. Pressley demands
NBC debate mods sharpened their skills for the second debate as kooky author rises above the fray
On the 2nd night of the Democrat debates in Miami, candidates all talked over each other trying to take command of the stage. In the following radio monologue, I predicted that none of the NBC anchors would hammer any Democrat the way Megyn Kelly crushed Donald Trump out of the gate in the 2015 Republican debate on Fox News. I stand corrected. Megyn's crushing of Trump is still in a league of its own, but Democrat-friendly NBC moderators did move beyond their usual fawning positions. I was impressed by Rachel Maddow asking Mayor Pete Buttigieg about South Bend's police racial problems. Buttigieg is the gay icon in this race and Maddow is a lesbian. She's not going easy
At least Hillary and Barack tweeted the word Easter, CNN reporter lances Trump with ham-handed “small stuff” reference after hundreds are killed
With approximately 300 Christians killed and 500 more wounded in Easter Sunday bombings in Sri Lanka, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama struggled to find the right word to describe the victims. Some of the victims were surely non-Christian but the targets were Catholic churches and hotels that cater to western tourists. So, yes, mostly Christians. It was one of the most severe mass casualty terrorist attack series since 9/11. At least twenty four people were arrested following the bombings. What flavor of terrorists brought these horrors? Mum's the word by many media outlets. Labeling the perpetrators is tricky business in an ultra-sensitive news environment where accusations against the "marginalized" are unwelcome. Only a few media references about the
