White House staffers provide Biden with large photos on how to walk to the podium: Report



White House staffers provide President Joe Biden with large print and photos to show him the exact path to walk to and from a podium during public events, according to a new report.

According to a report published by Axios on Sunday, staffers prepare President Biden for events by giving him verbal and visual instructions on how to walk to the podium.

The report – which contained images of the visual aids – shows a large print with the White House logo on top and then a photo of the path to the podium from backstage. In large print, it reads: "Walk to podium." Another print had a photo with large text that read: "View from podium" and "View from audience."

An unnamed staffer who worked at an event in the past 18 months told the outlet, "I staffed a simple fundraiser at a private residence, but they treated it like it was a NATO summit with his movements."

The White House staffer noted, "It surprised me that a seasoned political pro like the president would need detailed verbal and visual instructions on how to enter and exit a room."

Sources told Axios that "other prominent principals in the Biden administration use similar methods for plotting his movements."

Despite much of the legacy media denying that Biden has suffered any cognitive decline in the past months and years, much of the media has changed its tune since the disastrous first presidential debate performance by the 81-year-old president.

However, it isn't just the mainstream media that has turned on Biden. Fellow Democrats have called for Biden to step down as the party's presidential nominee.

NPR reported that several senior House Democrats told House Democratic leaders that Biden should end his presidential campaign for re-election during a virtual meeting on Sunday.

Democrats calling for Biden to drop out of the race during the meeting include Rep. Jerry Nadler of New York, the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, Rep. Adam Smith of Washington state, the top Democrat on House Armed Services panel, Rep. Mark Takano of California, the top Democrat on the Veterans Affairs panel, and Rep. Joe Morelle of New York, the ranking member of the House Administration panel.

According to MSNBC, there are seven other Democratic Congress members demanding that Biden pull out of the ticket.

At least five major Democratic donors have stated it would be best for the party if Biden steps down, including Netflix's co-founder and executive chairman Reed Hastings.

President Biden reiterated that he would not abandon his presidential campaign in a shaky ABC News interview on Friday. Biden told host George Stephanopoulos that he would only drop out of the race if the Lord Almighty came down to instruct him to do so.

"Look. I mean, if the Lord Almighty came down and said, 'Joe, get outta the race,' I'd get outta the race. The Lord Almighty's not comin' down. I mean, these hypotheticals, George, if, I mean, it's all," Biden said.

On Sunday, Biden was campaigning in the swing state of Pennsylvania and suffered some questionable moments that did not appear to help his cause.

Video shows the president rambling when talking to the crowd at a campaign event.

While talking to voters in Pennsylvania, President Biden said Philadelphia helped him win his senatorial race decades ago in Delaware.

“Even when I was running for Senate, each time I ran, quite frankly, not a joke, Philadelphia, in particular, got me across the line,” Biden said at the campaign event in Philly.

He doubled down by saying, “No, I’m not joking. No, I mean it, seriously, organizationally, and in terms of fundraising — the whole deal.”

Biden was a U.S. senator for Delaware between 1973 to 2009.

New York Judge DELAYS Trump sentencing following SCOTUS immunity ruling



It’s been quite the week for former President Donald Trump.

Not only did his debate against President Joe Biden send Democrats scrambling — the Supreme Court ruled that the president has immunity when executing "official acts."

Following that decision, Trump’s team moved to overturn the conviction of the former president in the Manhattan case, where he was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records.

As a result, Trump’s sentencing hearing has been postponed until September. While many conservatives are taking it as a win, Sara Gonzales remains skeptical.

“Part of me is like what else are they planning?” Gonzales says, adding, “They don’t give up that easily.”

“It’s either that or they see all of this imploding before their very eyes, and they don’t want to look stupid, so they’re like, ‘Yeah, we’ll just delay it, and then maybe people will forget about it,’” she continues, “But you’ve got to believe that they are completely scrambling to figure out what to do.”

“All of these bombshells they thought that they had are now seemingly getting totally overturned,” she adds.

Matthew Marsden finds it interesting that the liberal response to the Supreme Court’s ruling has been overwhelmingly one of fear.

“It’s amazing how the liberals went absolutely bonkers and said that the Supreme Court ruling was about Trump,” Marsden says. “It’s just about the law; it’s about the Constitution.”

Biden aides plot how to exploit special counsel transcripts to benefit Biden politically: Report



Biden administration officials are reportedly plotting how to use a transcript of President Joe Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur for the president's political benefit.

The plan contradicts Biden's promise to "bring transparency and truth back to government."

According to NBC News, Biden's top aides are expecting a "lengthy partisan clash over the transcript and possibly the audio recording" of Biden's five-hour interview with Hur.

To minimize political fallout — especially at a time when the majority of voters and Americans are concerned about Biden's age and mental acuity — the West Wing staff is even considering a "strategic" release of the transcript to highlight moments in the interview that they believe hide what many people believe is evidence of Biden's cognitive decline.

More from NBC News:

The internal discussions among Biden aides have focused on how the transcript of his interview might help him versus hurt him politically when it comes to voters’ concerns about his age, the people familiar with the discussions said.

Another consideration is whether it would make strategic sense to release the entire transcript or — to the extent that full disclosure is avoidable — to publicize specific moments in the interview to help push back on questions about Biden’s handling of classified materials or mental fitness, the people familiar with the discussions said.

The White House and Democrats have fiercely pushed back against Hur's description of Biden as an "elderly man with a poor memory," arguing the conclusion was unfair, politically motivated, and untrue. But no one in Biden's camp, including his personal attorney who sat through Biden's interview with Hur, has demanded to call for the release of the transcript.

Perhaps one reason is that the transcripts might contradict the narrative that Biden and the White House have tried to paint about the interview.

In one already-known instance, Biden publicly condemned Hur for allegedly asking about Beau Biden in the interview. But, according to NBC News, the transcripts show that Biden himself first mentioned his late son.

If the transcripts are released, it will not be anytime soon because of the lengthy process to redact classified information.

House Republicans, meanwhile, are demanding the transcripts and audio from the interview, asking the Justice Department to provide them by Feb. 19 — or be compelled to turn them over.
