The Biden family are apparently questioning whether several top campaign aides should be fired after last week’s disastrous debate debacle — as some allies accused President Biden’s preparation team of “political malpractice.” Talk of axing the staffers unfolded in private as President Biden and his family hunkered down at Camp David over the weekend to discuss options amid mounting calls for the 81-year-old to give up his re-election campaign, sources told CNN. During the discussions, some members of the first family trashed the senior aides and called for them to be put on the chopping block —

Hey, that's the ticket. Fire 'em all and make Jim and Hunter in charge of the campaign. Let the family run it. Oooh, please?

Actually the preparation team did a fantastic job considering what they had to work with. I was shocked Biden was able to do as well as he did, at times he even sounded somewhat coherent.

Joe is the Biden crime family's meal ticket. Once he's no longer president, they've got nothing. They undoubtedly also worry just a little bit about being prosecuted for their many crimes once he's out of power.

Fire them? And hire Who? EVERY Dem operative and wannabee has been angling for ANY whitehouse and/or campaign job for 5 years straight now...Kamlalala has gone through at least a dozen "Top aides/Advisors/Chiefs" Gonna bring in Bernies teams? The ones not already working for Biden? Bring in a Team of "Repub" Nevertrumpers to run the show? Which media mouthpiece s gonna be the 1st to say "They want to do the TRUMP Plan" have most top roles filled by Family, key difference will be that NONE of Trumps family accepted pay, the ones in "Paid Positions" all donated that money to charities or to Govt programs. Clinton, Obama, Biden all PAID their relatives to be nannies and such...Methinks the Biden family is likely eyeing a "Paycheck", rather than "Being of Service", even to their own father/Grandfather. Which Media Mouthpiece is gonna be the 1st to say..."If ANY other person, in ANY other position, for ANY reason issued a statement saying that 'We have corralled Hunter Biden to be our Key Advisor', they would be universally ridiculed into oblivion"

Well, who didn’t see that coming? Did anyone think for a moment that Jill would blame her own and Joe’s oversized ambition rather than staff aka social inferiors? Here’s how the return home went: Jill Biden, sitting at kitchen table piled with crockery and cookware - (Rings bell) Flying monkey in double breasted brass buttoned bellhop tunic and pillbox hat appears and tilts it’s head quizzically Jill B. - Bring me (Senior campaign manager) O’Malley! Now! Monkey flies off. Moments later JB hears a knock on the door. JB - Come in! Jennifer O’Malley, legs shaking, enters room JB - How could you have let this happen? We paid you good money to get Joe over the finish line! You had nothing else to do for the past six months but to get Joe ready for last Thursday! Ninety measly minutes! Just prep him and get him through! O’Malley: But Jill, I can explain! JB, rounding table in fury: What did you call me? JO’M: I mean Mrs. Biden (ducks as a frying pan flies past her head )….I mean Dr. Jill….(dinner plate flies past)… I mean Frau Dr. Biden E D D! JB: Don’t “but” me! You’re worthless!! You’re… (almost says “fired” but immediately remembers “The Apprentice”) a dog faced pony soldier! Get out and stay out!”

President Joe Biden faced a pivotal moment as he held his first press conference after his disastrous debate performance on Thursday. Biden spoke to reporters on the final day of a NATO summit the president was hosting in Washington as he faces mounting pressure to drop out of the 2024 race. The presser got off to a bad start when Biden didn't take the stage until a whole hour after it was scheduled. Democrats held their breath to see if Biden could successfully speak in front of cameras. Following the debate, the 81-year-old president claimed he was having a “bad night;”

California fast food franchise owners are being forced to cut their employees’ hours following Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D) $20 minimum wage law, which went into effect in April. Lawrence Cheng, whose family owns several Wendy’s restaurants in southern California, has had to fill in behind the register to make up for the dramatic cuts, he told the Associated Press. While he used to have “nearly a dozen employees” working the afternoon shift at his Fountain Valley location, he is reportedly down to just seven per shift. “We kind of just cut where we can,” Cheng told the outlet. “I schedule one less person,

Hurricane management allegedly prompted a partisan hoax readily batted down by Texan leaders: “Mr. President, as you like to say, ‘C’mon, man!'” No low was evidently too low for President Joe Biden and his allies as he suffered one of the worst political weeks of his decades-long career. In the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl, which left nearly 2 million Texans without power amid dangerously high temperatures, the choice between leadership and scoring “political points” had the resident-in-chief evidently opting for the latter. Taking to X Wednesday morning, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) released a statement aimed at exposing a claim made by Biden in an interview with the Houston Chronicle.

Joe Biden’s problems have just gotten a whole lot worse. It’s been clear for a while now that traditionally blue states have become competitive. Minnesota and Virginia, for example, have been close for a while, and some pollsters and pundits label them battleground states. New Hampshire appears to be competitive, as does New Mexico. Even those states don’t show how badly Biden’s position has become because Democrats are now worried that another blue state has become competitive — even though it shouldn’t be.

In the words of Barack Obama when speaking about Joe Biden, “Never underestimate his ability to f**k things up.” Joe did that on June 27 during his first debate with Donald Trump. The former president dog walked Biden by beating him handily among viewers and sparking a total panic within the Democratic Party. A vocal contingent wants Biden dumped but doesn’t know how to go about it. It’s not like this happens often in a tight presidential race, but Donald Trump could take a break. The media attention was laser-focused on Biden’s mental decline. This story was worth an aggressive reporting effort if the establishment press did its job

The former Clinton operative interviewed the president last Friday in what would be the start of his media rehabilitation tour, which has gotten off to a disastrous start. The ABC News interview did not quell any concerns about the president’s mental health, nor did it provide ‘dump Biden’ Democrats with the smoking gun evidence needed to apply unbearable pressure on the president to drop out.

The song, Fanfare for the First Lady, was intended to be a counterpoint to the president's Hail to the Chief. But of course, the president is the elected commander in chief, and the First Lady is more of an honorary post. Many of those in the Marine Corps Band said they'd never been asked to do an exclusive First Lady entrance theme before. "Someone in the White House apparently 'had the bright idea, ‘Oh, tell the band that we want music for Jill,'' a source said.
