CNN " When the 46th President of the United States took the debate stage a week ago, it became apparent, even from his first answer, that this would not be the performance he hoped for. For me as a brain specialist, it was concerning to watch President Joe Biden, and it quickly became clear that I was not alone in my reaction. Over the past week, I received more than a dozen calls, texts and emails from medical colleagues who, like me, specialize in the brain. It wasn't that what we noticed was necessarily new but that it was particularly pronounced, and right from the start of the debate. From a neurological standpoint, we were concerned with his confused rambling; sudden loss of concentration in the middle of a sentence; halting speech and absence of facial animation, resulting at times in a flat, open-mouthed expression

A Washington Post-George Mason University poll released this week contains good news and bad news for the Biden campaign. First, it shows that Biden has made substantial progress in convincing voters that democracy is indeed on the ballot. The survey of voters in swing states found that 61 percent say "threats to democracy" are extremely important to them. Unfortunately for Biden, this same poll shows he is failing to persuade people that voting for him is the best way to preserve and/or improve democracy. Forty-four percent of surveyed voters in those states say that they believe Trump is best equipped to deal with threats to democracy, compared with only 33 percent who favor Biden to do so. The news gets worse for Biden if we focus just on "undecided" voters

They've deceived and gaslit us for four years, all in the name of democracy.' That collapsed Thursday.
There is something fitting about the disarray in which the Democratic Party finds itself, a fearful symmetry in the now-fraught relationship between President Biden and panicking friends and colleagues.

Mr. Biden succeeded because he made toeing the party line his life's work. Like all politicians whose egos dwarf their talents, he ascended the greasy pole by slavishly following his party wherever it led

If there was any doubt that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg was a corrupt law enforcement official who abuses his office to prosecute his political enemies and protect his allies, it was eliminated Thursday when his office dismissed trespassing charges against 30 anti-Israel protesters who had been arrested after occupying a building on the campus of Columbia University. On the morning of April 30, the protesters, who had already been camping illegally on campus for two weeks, smashed a window on the first floor of the university's Hamilton Hall, unlocked the door, illegally entered the building, covered the security cameras, and then used wooden tables, chairs, zip ties, and metal chains to barricade themselves inside. Several custodial staffers were trapped inside, too, but they were eventually released. read more


FORMER GOV. ANDREW CUOMO (D-NY): That case, the Attorney General's case in New York, frankly should have never been brought. And if his name was not Donald Trump, and if he wasn't running for president from the former AG in New York, I'm telling you that case would have never been brought. And that's what is offensive to people. And it should be. Because if there's anything left, it's belief in the justice system.

"Maybe you should expend your energies calling for the adjudicated insurrectionist to be drop out.

Lots of reasons for Trump to drop out. In the primary I badly wanted Scott, DeSantis or Haley over Trump. But, it was a real primary and I'm stuck with the awful result.

The Democrat Party protected Biden, which in fairness isn't all that uncommon with an incumbent seeking re-election. But they KNEW about his condition and gaslit and hid it - with most of the press colluding and going along.

So, here we are. Removing him at this point is very difficult. The problem is further exacerbated by Harris being such a horrible VP to replace him.

Democrats need to coalesce and do so quickly, at this point. Right now, they seem divided.

Biden is good because he's Weekend at Bernie's. He's a puppet. The radical left can implement policy without implicating the real decision makers.

"Dr. Jill" seems to absolutely love her role and all of the perks that come with it, which makes a voluntary departure more difficult.

So. 25th? Hide him in his basement? Again? Harris? Yuck! ....

Then what? At or near the convention hold some kind of fake primary and, as the self-declared defenders of Democracy, simply appoint a new nominee in spite of the fact that 99% 0f the delegates are pledged to Biden via the original process?

The longer this takes, the worse it becomes from an electoral prospect.

Right now, it looks like the party is fracturing over keeping Biden or doing the right and Constitutional thing and jettisoning him under clear 25A grounds and the ONLY thing holding them back from upholding their Constitutional oaths is that with Harris as candidate she has mostly polled worse than Biden and is thus a bigger electoral / power risk.
