Hey mate, I don't want to piddle on your chips or anything, but you're coming across a bit desperate now. Maybe sit the next couple of days out, do some breathing exercises. The last thing you want is to come across all worked up and angry.Joe Biden to Indian Prime Minister and Tech Giant CEOs at White House: “I Sold a Lot of State Secrets and a Lot of Very Important Things” ..This Even Made the WH Transcripts!
Joe Biden held a meeting last week with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Apple CEO Tim Cook, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, and several Indian officials at the White House.
During the meeting a VERY CONFUSED Joe Biden blurted out that he sold a lot of state secrets.
Maybe the laughter is like when he told his audience he was 30 and she was 12 and they all laughed, or like that time he declared that he got a chief national prosecutor investigating his son's corruption, in Ukraine, fired?
Try the @Johnnytotal approach, work some emojis in your posts, lighten things up a bit. That way we'll all know you're a happy, well rounded, functioning member of society, and not a lonely virgin angry at a confusing world x

Oh no. You’ve fallen for an edited clip, in which Biden clearly stated he was making a joke (it landed too, hence the laughter).
I worry that your go-to sources are leaving you vulnerable to misinformation, this is just one example of how those partisan sources are deliberately spinning events to influence your thinking.
Try to be more discerning in your sources, and think critically about how a clip may have been edited, and how neutral or otherwise those sources may be.
Unless….you knew this already, and you are, in fact, deliberately trying to mislead others?! I hope this isn’t the case, and it’s simply a matter of you being easily fooled, as opposed to deliberately malicious.
Your words are lost. You’re speaking to a potato.
Gets called out for lying and spreading false info all the time and carries on regardless with no accountability and pretends it never happened, just like the rest of the free thinkers.
Yeah, I know. Was more for my own amusement than hoping to get through to that, as you rightly say - potato.

‘Putin is losing the war in Iraq’, says Biden in latest gaffe
US president made the error while addressing the aborted rebellion by the Wagner mercenary group in Russia
Asked to what extent Putin was weakened by the rebellion, Mr Biden said: “It’s hard to tell, but he is clearly losing the war in Iraq, he’s losing the war at home and he has become a bit of a pariah around the world.”
It is not the first time Mr Biden has made the same mistake. In November, he mistook the American war in Iraq for the Russian invasion while discussing Ukraine.
He told a gathering in Florida: “Inflation is a worldwide problem right now because of a war in Iraq and the impact on oil and what Russia is doing."
Last week an IRS whistleblower claimed Hunter Biden sent a message to a Chinese businessman in which he said he was sitting “with my father” as he pressured him over a proposed energy deal.
While negotiating a six-figure business deal with Henry Zhao, the Chinese businessman, in 2017, the president’s son reportedly sent a WhatsApp message to Mr Zhao.
“I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled,” the younger Mr Biden told Mr Zhao, the director of Harvest Fund Management.
Asked whether he was involved in his son’s “shakedown text message”, Mr Biden replied: “No, I wasn’t.”
I’m sure these marks will be the basis for a few conspiracy theories.
Uh oh
Could this be a cpap smear campaign?
Another good hiding*

I mean, he's way too old to be running let alone BE the POTUS, there's no way he could or should be coping with the constant travel and rigors of being the most powerful man in the western world. But even a senile 80 year old Biden is 100 times better than the Trump option.

Overseas payments to Biden family could exceed $40M, Comer says: ‘This was organized crime’
Members of President Biden’s family may have accepted in excess of $40 million from foreign nationals in exchange for favorable policy decisions, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer suggested Wednesday.
The Kentucky Republican said that his panel has identified “six specific policy decisions” where Biden, 80, took actions that indicate he may have been “compromised,” during an appearance on John Catsimatidis’ “Cats & Cosby Show” on WABC 770 Wednesday.
Comer noted that of the six policy decisions, four of them “were made while Joe Biden was president early on — [where] we cannot come to any other conclusion as to why these decisions were made, other than the fact that this president is compromised.”
“This was organized crime. There’s no other way to define it,” Comer alleged.
The Oversight Committee chairman explained that as recently as “in the last five days” his panel has obtained banking statements and suspicious activity reports that show “more bank accounts, more shell companies and more Bidens” being involved in the family’s overseas influence peddling scheme.
“We’re going to try to determine how much money the Bidens took, and what role Joe Biden played in all of this … It’s a huge puzzle,” Comer said of the GOP-led committee’s investigation.
“Around 30 to 40 different banks, and about that many different shell companies. This is an organized attempt by the Biden family to hide the source of money going into these shell companies, and to distract from the IRS so they wouldn’t have to pay taxes on it. And that’s exactly what the IRS whistleblowers alleged in the transcribed interview with the Ways and Means Committee — that the Biden family never paid money on any of these wires that came into these shell companies,” he added.
IRS whistleblower Gary Shapely told Fox News host Bret Baier on Wednesday that in 2017 and 2018 alone, first son Hunter Biden ducked a $1.2 million tax bill, and that there is likely hundreds of thousands of dollars more in income from previous years that he failed to report.
“I mean to this day, there’s still around $400,000 of unreported income from Burisma [Holdings] in 2014,” Shapley said. “Hunter Biden was told by his partner, Eric Schwerin, that he needed to amend his returns, and he never did.”
Comer told Catsimatidis that he’s “confident” his investigation will prove the Biden family raked in “at least $17 million” from overseas, but that the “transactions could exceed $40 million-plus.”
Comer has identified nine members of the Biden clan — including Hunter, the president’s brother James Biden, his brother’s wife, Sara Biden, the widow of the president’s late son, Hallie Biden, Hunter’s current wife, Melissa Cohen Biden, and Hunter’s ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle — as having allegedly received foreign income.
