After the longest of goodbyes, the worst president in modern American history is finally, thankfully, gone.
Watching Joe Biden bask in his supposed triumph has been a mix of annoying and amusing. He gave a meandering farewell speech from the Oval Office, followed by a flattering interview where he stuck to his far-fetched claim that he could have emerged victorious had he continued his presidential bid.
As Biden himself would say: No joke!
This signals the beginning of the closing chapter for a presidency that stands out from all the rest – a president who seemed more like a ghost in the Oval Office, merely a figurehead controlled by a mysterious group of Democrats (hint-hint: Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi) who put him in power and steered the nation off course.
Of course, Joe and his wife, Dr. Jill, would never acknowledge any of this. But that’s typical behavior for a family that prioritizes acquired wealth and an insatiable hunger for control over what is moral and just, disregarding the best interests of the country.
‘You answered all the questions, Joe!’
That was Jill Biden to her enfeebled dotard of a husband, who had just walked off that infamous debate stage back in June. A truly loving wife would surely have shuffled him home, held his hand and told him it was time to go.
Not Lady MacBiden. No: Her husband may have just humiliated himself and the country — not to mention showing our enemies that the leader of the free world was asleep at the wheel — but she figured she could write that off as ‘just a bad night’.
It’s been equal parts enraging and entertaining to watch Joe Biden take what he clearly feels is a well-earned victory lap.
And so begins the political obituary for a presidency like no other: a president who was never really there, who held office in name only, who was but a puppet for a shadowy Democrat cabal that installed him and ran the country into the ground. (Joe and wife Jill are pictured on January 16).
That’s how stupid the Democrat establishment thought the electorate was.
Face it: Biden’s first and only term was always destined to end badly. He began by defying his top military advisers who warned against pulling US forces out of Afghanistan.
Bob Gates, former secretary of defense under George W. Bush and Obama, wrote of Biden in his 2014 memoir: ‘I think he has been wrong on every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.’
Obama, ahead of Biden’s presidential run in 2020: ‘Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f*** things up.’
Of course, Old Joey thought he knew best. And the result was the worst American retreat since Saigon.
Desperate Afghanis, children among them, clung to an American C-17 plane during takeoff and plummeted to their deaths.
Babies were tossed over barbed wire to American servicemen. Afghanis who risked life and limb to help Americans — who were promised protection— were left behind.
Thirteen US service members died when a terrorist suicide-bomber struck at Kabul airport.
President Biden honored their ultimate sacrifice by checking his watch repeatedly as their coffins were delivered for ‘dignified transfer’ at Dover Air Force Base. Surviving family members were left repulsed by Biden’s callousness. By his insistence on talking not about their needless losses but about his own deceased son, Beau.
We later learned that he’d also reportedly kept those grieving families waiting while he dozed on Air Force One.
Roice McCollum, whose 20-year-old brother Rylee was among the fallen, told the Mail that Biden ‘made us wait an extra three hours to receive the bodies of our dead family members because he couldn’t pull it together.’
Perhaps this was the moment Biden’s presidency, then only nine months old, died.
After his administration released a report blaming — you guessed it — Donald Trump for the Afghanistan debacle, Roice McCollum spoke for the bulk of America.
‘This administration is a disgrace to this country,’ she said. ‘Of course Biden would blame it on Trump. He said a couple of days ago they have to do everything in their power to keep Trump from getting elected again. It’s just propaganda. They are trying to manipulate public opinion’.
How right she was.
Obama, ahead of Biden’s presidential run in 2020, said: ‘Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f*** things up.’ (Obama and Biden are pictured in 2016).

‘Cheap fakes’, we were told, every time we saw footage of Biden wandering off, or standing with his mouth agape, clearly confused about where he was and what he was doing — a lie repeated over and over by an overwhelmingly liberal media hellbent on keeping Trump from running again.
Winning again.
‘Deceptively edited videos, known as “cheap fakes”, have become staples of Republican attacks against President Biden’ — The Washington Post, June 11, 2024
‘The videos… are cropped or edited in a way that is misleading’ — The Hill, June 19, 2024
And this, from the New York Times, dated June 21, 2024: ‘There is the distorted, online version of [Biden], a product of often misleading videos that play into and reinforce voters’ longstanding concerns about his age and abilities.’
This talking point was clearly being spoon-fed to a toothless press by the Biden White House right up to that June TV debate — you know, the one that ‘reinforced voter concerns about his age and abilities’.
Then the mask was off. Biden wasn’t a well-meaning, somewhat forgetful but thoroughly decent man saving ‘the soul of the nation’ from Trump.
He — clearly cognitively impaired, by his own admission able to work just four hours a day, left by his staff to sleep through all manner of crises — was the real threat.
After the Afghanistan withdrawal, which revealed a shambolic America in retreat, Putin invaded Ukraine. Hamas unleashed a terror attack on Israeli soil to rival 9/11. Al-Qaeda and Isis are on the rise once again.
The Taliban in Afghanistan has banned women from speaking in public.
Criminals, gangs and rapists have flowed freely through our open southern border with Mexico.
But Biden’s top priorities have seemingly been trans rights — stripping protections for real girls and women — DEI and wokeism.
Should we be surprised? Biden has always given so many women the creeps, sniffing the hair of little girls, squeezing their shoulders, kissing them on the lips.
‘Showers w/my dad (probably not appropriate),’ Biden’s daughter Ashley wrote in a diary that she herself admits is real.
Imagine if that were in Ivanka Trump’s authenticated diary entries. It would have been the mainstream media’s top story for months.
Not so for Biden. But, ever the small man, he has remained — to the bitter end — full of grudges, gripes and grift.
His largest concern has seemed to be not for the country but himself and his family. Somehow — don’t ask Joe — his corrupt, degenerate son Hunter found himself with a sweetheart plea deal on tax evasion and a federal gun charge.
Until he didn’t. Just like Hunter’s sordid laptop was fake, or a Russian plant, until it wasn’t.
Once Hunter pleaded guilty in federal court in September — weeks before the election — Joe said over and over that under no circumstances would he pardon his son.
After Trump won, Biden pardoned his son, for crimes known and unknown.
That kind of brazen duplicity, shameless hypocrisy — rules for thee, but not for me — is synonymous with the Biden family and the entire Democrat machine.

It’s the endless moralizing and lecturing and hectoring to America about what a terrible country this is — what racists, sexists, homophobes, transphobes and xenophobes we are — that led to a second Trump term.
It was the hysteria that ‘Trump was Hitler’ and a threat to democracy, while they quietly installed a senile figurehead and executed a palace coup to give Kamala Harris, she of epic word salad and not one original thought, the nomination.
While delivering his farewell address last week, Biden quoted President Dwight D. Eisenhower in a warning about the looming second Trump term: ‘the potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power, end of quote.’
End of quote, end of times.
Yes, Joe Biden’s been a total downer on his way out, warning us of the dark, dangerous America that — hello! — he himself worked to destroy.
He foisted Kamala, a woman who couldn’t articulate a single reason for running besides ‘I’m not Donald Trump’, upon his party — his nation — as revenge for getting pushed off the ticket.
His approval numbers are in the toilet, the lowest of any outgoing president since Nixon. His one-time mega donors have reportedly snapped shut their wallets — no presidential library for you, Joe! — so disgusted are they. He lost the Hollywood elite the moment George Clooney turned on him in the pages of The New York Times last July.
Yet Biden, whether it’s dementia or defiance, thinks he’s going out on a high! He thinks America really wants to hear what he has to say — or stumble through, as the case may be.
He thinks he is going to be missed. He seems to see himself as a quasi-religious figure and that, without him, America may not be saved.
From that farewell address: ‘Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy.’
You mean, Joe, like the Chinese businessmen you swore you never met, let alone introduced to Hunter? Despite the photos that surfaced just days ago, showing you, Hunter, and those Chinese businessmen?
Despite emails and texts from Hunter to his various foreign connections, confirming payouts of ten percent ‘for The Big Guy’?
Or the pressure your Justice Department put on tech companies, Facebook and Twitter among them, to suppress the Hunter laptop story?
Or the lies you told a complicit liberal media about your cognitive health and physical fitness?
Does that not sound to you like concentrated wealth and stolen power threatening our very democracy?
Americans are not fooled by Joe Biden. We never really have been. He won in 2020 at the height of the pandemic, voted in by a panicked electorate — a vote for change that saw nearly every incumbent in the Western world voted out.
He ran on the premise of restoring normalcy and stabilizing the nation. On that, he failed.
New Year’s Day saw a deadly terror attack in New Orleans and another bombing outside the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas.
Americans remain held hostage by Hamas and, until mere days ago, there was no ceasefire in sight.
Biden foisted Kamala Harris (pictured in late November), a woman who couldn’t articulate a single reason for running besides ‘I’m not Donald Trump’, upon his party, his nation, as revenge for getting pushed off the ticket.Â
As Biden walks out the door, Los Angeles endures Week 3 of devastating wildfires — the ultimate metaphor for Biden’s bonfire of vanities, one that elevated incompetent virtue-signalers and DEI hires over competence and common sense.
Biden, despite trying to salvage his legacy, will go down in history as a minor footnote, the aberrant hiccup between Trump’s first and second term.
That’s if he’s lucky. That’s if he’s not remembered as the most useful idiot the left ever installed. As he turns to go on Monday morning, LA will still be on fire, and that will be his true legacy: An America left burning, hopeless, desperate, neglected.
But we sussed out the real threat. And it wasn’t Donald Trump.
