Biden Goes Viral for All the Wrong Reasons at Eagles Game

Joe Biden had another embarrassing public appearance Sunday when he showed up to the Philadelphia Eagles-Las Vegas Raiders game at Lincoln Financial Field, bundled against the cold and looking about as lost as you’d expect.

Biden arrived on the sidelines before the 1 p.m. kickoff, standing in the snow with his wife, former First Lady Dr. Jill Biden, as they greeted Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie. “Go Birds, man, all the way,” Biden said in a clip posted to NBC10’s John Clark’s X account “Gotta win the Super Bowl again.”

From there, it all pretty much went downhill. But, hey, at least he knew he was at a football game…. maybe.

FOX’s NFL account on X posted video of Biden watching the game from the sidelines, and social media quickly erupted in mockery as clips of him staring blankly spread across the platform.

Social media users quickly flooded comment sections with posts targeting Biden’s age and cognitive fitness.

Trump Is Using the ‘Misinformation’ Censorship Playbook Republicans Attacked Biden For

A Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson recently complained about alleged “lies, smears and AI deepfakes that are designed to deceive Americans” about President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda. Pressed on whether the government was talking with social media platforms to stem this purported misinformation, the spokesperson said, “Yes and we are also putting resources forward to ensure DHS combats this.”

It wasn’t so long ago that candidate Trump and his Republican allies were decrying the Joe Biden administration for pressuring platforms to police misinformation. The Trump administration seems to have warmed to the idea. 

Many on the left, who previously supported giving the government greater power to combat so-called misinformation, are and should rightly be fearful of a Trump administration empowered to censor speech it disagrees with.

The DHS announcement signals a deeper shift toward government-driven moderation of online speech—a shift that threatens to turn every administration into a speech arbiter. The power to dictate what can be said on the internet is inherently prone to abuse, no matter who holds it. The stakes are high.

Jawboning for Me but Not for Thee

Under the First Amendment, federal and state governments cannot censor speech they dislike, so instead of blatantly shutting down a news organization or online platform, government actors often try to force a company to do their bidding through more subtle means. These demands often happen behind closed doors, backed by an implicit—or sometimes explicit—threat that refusal will bring government retaliation. Because the government wields so much power over businesses, these companies understand they are in a weak position to resist. This practice is called “jawboning.”

When the Biden administration made public and private demands that social media companies remove “misinformation” and “disinformation” related to the COVID-19 pandemic, it ended up at the Supreme Court in Murthy v. Missouri. The Court ultimately punted by ruling that individual social media users who claimed their speech was suppressed lacked standing to sue. 

This was disappointing. Internal emails from various social media companies showed that senior leaders felt they had no choice but to comply with the administration. Meta’s leaders internally said that they needed to change policy because they had “bigger fish to fry with the Administration.” YouTube claimed it needed to keep Biden officials happy since they wanted to “work closely with the administration on multiple policy fronts.” Amazon moved to “accelerate” its policy changes ahead of a call with Biden officials. Thankfully, the Supreme Court did at least uphold the principle that jawboning is wrong and unconstitutional in another case, NRA v. Vullo. 

Today, the Trump administration appears to be invoking Murthy as cover for its own pressure campaigns against online platforms. Apple removed an app that allowed users to report sightings of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in real time. After complaints from Attorney General Pam Bondi, Meta removed a Facebook group that shared information about ICE agents. Now, the DHS says it is communicating with social media companies about supposed immigration misinformation. It would be naive to suppose it hasn’t applied any pressure during those talks.

It is entirely possible that the government can point to specific acts of illegality. It’s also possible that some of this content violates platform policies. For example, Meta claimed it removed the Facebook page with information on ICE agents for violating its “policies against coordinated harm.” It is possible this group was persistently violating this policy. But as long as these companies remain vulnerable to government pressure, we cannot simply trust officials who insist their demands are legitimate.

Joe Biden Is Getting a Brutal Lesson on How Irrelevant He Is

When Joe Biden announced his presidential library plans back in September, the writing was already on the wall. Donors were checked out, interest was nonexistent, and the whole thing smelled like a vanity project nobody wanted to fund. Now, a New York Times article confirms what was painfully obvious from the start — Biden’s library is turning into an epic fundraising disaster.

The numbers are embarrassing. According to the report, Biden’s library foundation received no new donations in 2024, the final year of his presidency. All of its initial funding — a measly $4 million — came from leftover cash from Biden’s 2021 inauguration, not from donors eager to immortalize his legacy. The foundation refuses to disclose how much, if anything, it has raised in 2025, which obviously means the number is so disastrously low that they’re too embarrassed to give figures publicly.

Biden is about to actively seek donations for the project, but this isn’t exactly a sign that help is on the way. He’s hosting his first event explicitly aimed at potential library donors on Monday in Georgetown, but calling it a fundraiser would be generous. I’m not expecting this social hour to move the needle much.

The news actually gets worse.

Biden’s foundation told the Internal Revenue Service that it expects to raise a grand total of about $11.3 million by the end of 2027. That figure is laughably low compared to what recent presidents have accomplished. George W. Bush’s team hit its $500 million fundraising goal before his library was even dedicated. Obama’s library reportedly costs about $850 million. Even President Trump’s library expects to raise more than $900 million.

Education Department Ends Biden Student Loan Bailout

The Trump-McMahon Department of Education (DOE) has moved to end the last of the Biden administration’s large-scale, illegal federal student loan bailout programs.

DOE announced its agreement with Missouri to end the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) Plan, which was set to cost taxpayers almost $350 billion in a decade’s time. The Dec. 9 press release celebrated the move as being not only a win for taxpayers, but necessary clarity for borrowers duped by extravagant and unrealistic Democrat promises.

Why should waitresses, construction workers, plumbers, and other hardworking Americans pay off the college degrees of strangers? The federal government already funnels far too much money into higher education as it is. In fact, federal involvement in universities is what has driven up prices and spread wokeness for decades.

MEMO: Joe Biden Was Warned His Immigration Policies Would Cause Chaos at the Southern Border – He Did it Anyway

As much as it seems like Joe Biden was not mentally present throughout his presidency and did not really have any idea what was going on, he apparently did get some warnings at the beginning.

In a newly unearthed memo, Biden was reportedly warned that his stance on immigration would cause chaos at the southern border and it certainly did.

We will likely be feeling the effects of Joe Biden’s awful presidency for years to come.

The New York Post reports:

Biden was warned his soft-on-immigration proposals would cause ‘chaos’ — but he ignored it, damning memo reveals

President Joe Biden was warned by advisers that his immigration plans could lead to “chaos” at the US border — but he ignored them, a newly uncovered memo reveals.

His team doled out the advice to Biden when he was still campaigning against President Trump back in 2020, the New York Times reported.

“A potential surge could create chaos and a humanitarian crisis, overwhelm processing capacities and imperil the agenda of the new administration,” Biden’s advisers wrote.

The memo warned that a huge influx was possible given Biden’s approach, a backlog from the Trump administration, and COVID hardships.

His team offered up steps that Biden, now 83, could take to thwart an influx of illegal migrants — including ways to reject immigration claims more easily, potentially holding asylum seekers in “reception centers” until their cases could be heard and transferring them to other countries.

Biden, however, opted to ignore the advice.

When Biden took office just months later, his policy advisers continued to urge the administration to crack down on border crossings and increase border enforcement.

Trump was elected in part to handle this problem and did he ever.

A new CBP report confirms that. House Speaker Mike Johnson recently tweeted about it.

Biden’s FBI Knew Brian Cole was the January 6 Pipe Bomber in April 2021

Joe Biden’s FBI under Director Christopher Wray knew Brian Cole was the January 6 pipe bomber back in April 2021, but for some reason chose not to take him into custody and charge him with crimes.

Brian Cole, 30, of Woodridge, Virginia, was taken into custody last Thursday and charged with use of an explosive device and attempted malicious destruction by means of explosive materials.

Cole admitted to investigators that he planted pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters on January 5, the night before the Capitol riot.

After nearly half a decade, the FBI appeared to crack the case less than one year into the Trump Administration.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said federal investigators solved the case of the January 6 pipe bomber without any new evidence.

The FBI identified Cole based on his phone pings and transaction history on his credit cards, according to an affidavit.

The FBI has identified one bank checking account and six credit cards (the “Accounts”) used by COLE. The FBI obtained records for the checking account and three credit cards for the time period January 2018 to January 2021. Three additional credit cards were obtained for the time period of January 2018 to November 2025. The FBI reviewed the transaction history for all of these Accounts.

The January 6 Select Committee chaired by GOP Rep. Loudermilk posted its pipe bomb report and compared it to the affidavit released by Patel’s FBI.

[In] April 2021, the case team identified a [redacted] user who was in the area of the DNC at the time the suspect can be seen on video footage using their phone. The FBI requested and received the “historical cell tower data” for he user and as of April 2021, the case team was attempting to “further analyze” the user’s movements. It is ultimately unclear what happened with respect to this lead,” the J6 Committee’s pipe bomb report read.

The affidavit released by Kash Patel’s FBI revealed Biden’s FBI had to have known Brian Cole was the pipe bomb suspect.

“Provider records show that the COLE CELLPHONE connected with Provider cell phone towers consistent with the COLE CELLPHONE being in the area of the RNC and DNC on January 2, 2021. The COLE CELLPHONE engage in approximately seven data session transactions with Provider towers between 7:39 p.m. and 8:24 p.m. Provider’s historical cell site data shows the specific tower for each of the transactions along with the sector of the tower that engaged in the transaction with the COLE CELLPHONE,” the affidavit said.

Generational Betrayal: HUD Reveals Biden Gave Illegal Aliens FHA-Backed Mortgages

HUD Secretary Scott Turner told Fox Business on Friday that illegal aliens received federally backed mortgages during the Biden–Harris regime years. Turner characterized this as a significant policy failure by the previous administration and evidence of what he called misplaced priorities that favored illegals over American homebuyers.

“You know, during the Biden Administration, there were over 12 million illegal aliens that came over the border, straining our housing supply and making the costs go up,” Turner told Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo.

He continued, “And so we worked with Secretary Noem at DHS, as you alluded to, to make sure that only American citizens are living in HUD-funded housing. We also took away FHA-backed mortgages from illegal aliens. During the Biden Administration, they turned a blind eye. But we’re going to keep the law to make sure these mortgages, which are backed by the taxpayer, go only to the American people.”

“And lastly, we’re mandating every public housing authority give us a comprehensive account of who’s living in every unit and every taxpayer-funded HUD property.”

SURPRISE! Watchdog Claims U.S. Weapons Left Behind by Biden in Afghanistan Now Make Up ‘Core’ of the Taliban Military

A watchdog has now confirmed that American weaponry left behind in the botched 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan now makes up the ‘core’ of the Taliban military.

This means that if American soldiers are ever again put on the ground in an armed conflict in Afghanistan, there is a distinct possibility that they could be injured or killed by weapons paid for by the American taxpayer. Thanks, Joe Biden!

Joe Biden could have been impeached for a number of things, but he should have been impeached for this. All of this.

Just the News reported:

Afghan watchdog concludes billions in weapons U.S. left behind form ‘core’ of Taliban military

The inspector general responsible for scrutinizing U.S. reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan has detailed the billions of dollars wasted by the U.S. government during the 20-year war in the country and concluded that the arsenal of U.S.-provided military weaponry that was left behind now forms the “core” of the Taliban’s own military machine.

A massive number of U.S.-made and U.S.-supplied weapons and military facilities were left behind in Afghanistan as a result of President Joe Biden’s troop withdrawal announcement in April 2021, which resulted in the dissolution of the Afghan military, a chaotic U.S. evacuation, and a Taliban takeover in August 2021.

The Special Inspector General for Afghan Reconstruction (SIGAR) issued its “final forensic audit report” this week more than four years after the U.S. withdrawal and evacuation from the country, concluding that “these U.S. taxpayer-funded equipment, weapons, and facilities have formed the core of the Taliban security apparatus.” SIGAR said in its final report that it will close its doors at the end of January 2026 as a result of the National Defense Authorization Act for 2025.

It’s simply maddening.

“Get Up and Fight Back!” – Joe Biden Shouts Out of Nowhere, Botches “America” During LGBTQ+ Victory Institute Speech

Joe Biden emerged from hiding on Friday to deliver remarks at a forum hosted by the LGBTQ+ Victory Institute.

Biden received the Chris Abele Impact Award for building the most LGBTQ+ inclusive administration in US history.

Biden was awarded for having a black lesbian press secretary, a gay Transportation Secretary, a nonbinary Department of Energy official who is into “pup kink,” and a transgender Assistant Secretary for Health.

They weren’t qualified to serve in those positions, but all that matters is that they were gay, nonbinary, or transgender.

“The LGBTQ+ Victory Institute—the only national organization dedicated to elevating out LGBTQ leaders at all levels of government—is proud to announce today that President Joe Biden will receive the Chris Abele Impact Award to honor his historic role in championing LGBTQ+ rights and for his leadership in achieving the most LGBTQ+ inclusive administration in U.S. history,” the organization said.

“President Biden will be the third recipient of the award in the Institute’s history,” the organization said.

“President Biden has shown unwavering commitment to ensuring LGBTQ+ people can participate fully and openly in our democracy,” said Evan Low, LGBTQ+ Victory Institute President & CEO.

“From appointing a record number of LGBTQ+ leaders to reversing harmful policies and expanding civil rights protections, his administration set a new and necessary standard for what inclusive governance looks like. And now, we’re seeing LGBTQ+ elected officials lead the way on everyday issues that are important to most Americans like groceries, housing, and lowering the costs of healthcare. This award honors not only his achievements, but also the real impact these changes have had on LGBTQ+ Americans across the country,” Low said.

Joe Biden shuffled over to the microphone and delivered an uninspiring speech.

At one point, Joe Biden shouted at the attendees and told them to “fight back” against the Trump Administration.

“Get up! Get up and fight back! Get up! Continue to fight! What’s the fight all about?! It’s about protecting the Constitution!” Biden shouted.

Trump Suggests Michelle Obama Was Caught Using Joe Biden’s Autopen

President Donald Trump blasted open another online firehose Monday night, tossing out a fresh theory that Michelle Obama used Joe Biden’s notorious autopen.

Trump’s Truth Social account turned into a late-night rally, with the commander-in-chief unleashing more than 160 posts between 7 p.m. and midnight. Most of it came from MAGA influencers like YouTuber Benny Johnson and commentator Scott Jennings, who filled the feed with red-meat content for Trump’s base.

But the headline-grabber was a repost of Alex Jones. Trump boosted a video from the InfoWars host along with the claim that “Michelle Obama may have used Biden’s autopen in the final days of his disastrous administration to pardon key individuals.”

Trump has long accused Biden of leaning on a mechanical signing device to push through executive orders and pardons as his presidency sputtered to an end. Before leaving office, Biden granted clemency to several of Trump’s fiercest critics, including retired Gen. Mark Milley and Dr. Anthony Fauci.

However, so far, there does not appear to be much evidence that the former first lady had anything to do with Biden’s last-minute pardon spree.
