On Monday night, Joe Biden closed out his 51 years of “public service” with a dark and evil speech that, as he has done in the past, vilified the 75 million Americans who were smart enough not to vote for him in 2020. In an address filled with lie after lie after lie, Keith and I both asked, “Where are the mainstream media fact-checkers?”

And Biden did not stay in Chicago for the remaining three nights of the DNC. He and his wife, the contemptible First Lady Dr. Jill Biden jetted off to California on Air Force Two for another week of vacation where they will watch the DNC and the attendant demonstrations from their living room couch.

And what about all those “We Heart Joe” signs omnipresent in the hall Monday night? They are filling up in the dumpsters behind the United Center. Like Joe Biden himself, all those signs are now consigned to the trash heap of American political history. And no one put this in clearer context than Megyn Kelly on her podcast on Tuesday when she pointed out that Biden’s Dark Brandon persona had returned for one final time.

Another Sign of the Democrat Party’s Lack of Respect for Joe Biden

We thought the Dems’ most passive-aggressive move at their convention was to push Joe’s farewell speech out of prime time. His speech ended after midnight EDT. Around half of the U.S. population is on Eastern time, so it’s safe to say that most people tuned out long before he finished his speech.

And it was the same speech he had been giving for the past three years, a rehash of his Battle for the Soul of the Nation address back in September 2022 at Philadelphia’s Independence Hall. It was a sad spectacle as he isn’t really mad at Trump or Republicans—they didn’t oust him. His own party did. It is like King Lear who rails against everyone but is powerless to do anything because he is weak and trusted the wrong people. No amount of rants and lies will change the fact that Biden’s presidency will go down in history as a colossal failure and the Dem party shoved 14 million people’s votes down the toilet to move Harris into play as a move to win a single election after it was apparent that Democrats couldn’t win with Biden at the top of the ticket. These people are truly ruthless.

So many of us were totally red-pilled after seeing Dr. Jill. Just the graphic announcing the speaking lineup at the DNC with “Dr.” in front of her name was just too much. Every lawyer that passes the bar exam is given the honorarium “juris doctor,” or JD, after their name, yet none that I know insist that you refer to them as “doctor.” Jill is a power-hungry status addict that nobody will miss after she is gone, particularly Harris who effectively called Jill’s husband a racist on national TV. They all deserve each other.

The entire episode was like Night of the Living Dead. We had both Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton giving the same speeches they have been giving for the past forty years. They reminded everyone of why they are despised. Maybe they were trotted out to make Kamala look fresh by comparison.

Biden’s Address, an Exercise in Hate Speech

As for Biden’s nearly one-hour speech, it was pathetic and anyone who is not a rabid partisan will see that. But what did the DNC organizers do? Instead of inviting and giving credentials to actual independent journalists, they invited hundreds of TikTok “influencers.” As Glenn Greenwald pointed out, these so-called influencers were not those with the largest audiences. Rather, they were the ones that most rabidly towed the Democrat/Harris-Walz party line.

Like their mainstream media mockingbird counterparts, the references to Trump were pure projection. These influencers were equally giddy in spreading the Dark Brandon talking points as Biden said, “I never thought I would stand before a crowd of Democrats and refer to a President as a liar so many times.” Snopes, Politifact, influencers, and the mainstream media, how about a fact-check on this one?

America’s winning and the world’s better off for it. America’s more prosperous and America is safer today than under Donald Trump. Trump continues to lie about crime in America like everything else. Guess what? On his watch, the murder rate went up 30%, the biggest increase in history. Meanwhile, we made the largest investment, Kamala and I, in public safety ever. Now, the murder rate is falling faster than at any time in history. Violent crime has dropped to the lowest level in more than 50 years. And crime will keep coming down when we put a prosecutor in the Oval Office instead of a convicted felon.

The “convicted felon” label reminds everyone of the lawfare waged against Trump by Biden and his operators in the DOJ to bankrupt and jail him just because he dared to run against a Democrat incumbent. Once the appeals process throws out all of these “convictions,” everyone will be reminded of the weaponization of the legal process under Biden that goes all the way back to the Obama Administration. (We’re working on a commentary that we will explore after the DNC. That topic simply doesn’t get enough attention from the water carriers in the mainstream media.)

Of course, Biden had to lie over and over again. It’s what he and the Dems do. You don’t get elected by telling people the truth, you get elected by telling people what they want to hear. And what Dems thought America wanted to hear was an angry, bitter speech.

We don’t know who writes Biden’s speeches, but it is clear that it is someone who hates him. Why else would Biden read off the teleprompter that he “wrote a peace treaty for Gaza,” or repeat the ridiculous “good people on both sides” lie from Charlottesville that was debunked by Snopes, or “those protesters out in the street, they have a point.” Yeah, that will resonate with America.

It was telling that Biden jetted out of Chicago right away and didn’t stay to support his successor’s presentation. He is clearly beyond pissed off and bitter, thinking (rightfully) that he was betrayed by his party and made to look the fool by having him speak at midnight on a Monday during the DNC.

Besides Joe Biden, who was Monday night’s biggest loser? Jill Biden. It’s time this family of grifters is evicted from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Republicans must defeat Democrats so the 2024 election won’t be a repeat of 2020. It needs to be a popular vote victory as well as a crushing Electoral College landslide in November. With RFK’s impending exit from the race and his probable endorsement of Trump tomorrow, the Trump train appears to be back on track to deliver on that promise.

It is only fitting that Joe Biden ended his political life by being ruthlessly knifed in the back by the very same Democrat Party he loved and supported for more than fifty years. And these Democrats are not being shy about their ruthlessness; Nancy Pelosi was sanguine when refusing to outright admit she was instrumental in forcing Biden to quit his re-election campaign or face being served with the 25th Amendment process, stating that she “cares about the party and not about anyone’s feelings.”

What we are witnessing at the 2024 DNC is a parade of ruthlessness, hatred, anguish, and raw emotion bordering on catharsis, both inside and outside of the United Center. That is today’s Democrat party for all to see.

And Joe Biden? His bitter legacy is knowing that the greatest political achievement of his life was getting out of the way. And he should thank Donald Trump as he turns out the lights on the morning of January 20, 2025 (if he’s not forced out of the White House before his successor is inaugurated) as he can’t be prosecuted for actions taken while in office. But this feeble old man can be prosecuted for all his, his son’s, and his brother’s crimes, all of the grifting that occurred when Biden was senator, vice president, and for the four years as a private citizen between 2017 to 2021.
