President Joe Biden had an epic comeback to a question from Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy during a contentious press conference on Thursday, and video of the exchange has gone viral on social media.
Referencing a report from Special Counsel Robert Hur regarding Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, Doocy asked the president, “How bad is your memory and can you continue as president?”
Biden proceeded to take Doocy’s question and smack it out of the briefing room.
“My memory is so bad that I let you speak,” Biden responded.
Doocy: “How bad is your memory and can you continue as President?”

Doocy then asked, “Something the special counsel said in his report is that one of the reasons you were not charged is because, in his description, you are a well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.”
The president replied, “I’m well-meaning, and I’m an elderly man, and I know what the hell I’m doing. I’ve been president, and I put this country back on its feet. I don’t need his recommendation.”
Commenters on Twitter/X, stood and cheered for Biden.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) angrily stormed out of a House committee meeting Tuesday after a Democrat reminded her that while she loves to blame her opponents of being soft on crime, she’s the one who hugged Jan. 6 defendants.
During the House Oversight Committee hearing, Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) said he found it ironic that Greene was complaining about crime in Washington, D.C.
“I want to remind the gentlelady that it was her that actually organized a trip to the D.C. jail to hug and high-five and sit with the insurrectionists that actually attacked our Capitol,” Garcia said. “This is quite ironic that the insurrectionists that tried to overthrow our government in the Capitol City were being coddled — were being, were actually being coddled by, it’s quite a shame that you call them political prisoners or hostages, I think maybe you called them.”
Greene appeared to heckle Garcia at that point. She then stood and walked out of the room in a huff., which led Garcia to note, “So I think it’s quite interesting that my colleague was trying to talk about the safety of D.C. when she literally supported an insurrection, an attack on the Capitol, visited the prisoners.”

Garcia later had this to say about Greene on Twitter/X:
Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to complain about DC crime rates but walked out of the room when I reminded her I saw her hugging and coddling the Jan 6th insurrectionists in jail. She even yelled that they're political prisoners in the middle of my remarks. She’s insane. pic.twitter.com/BUBw6Shu7t
Marjorie Taylor Greene is bigoted, deranged, hateful, and completely unfit for office, as many noted on social media.
She can't handle the truth. She even embarrassed herself 🤣

@RepMTG aka #MargeThePipeBomber walks out because she can harass, lie, scream, threaten, and insult everyone…but can’t take it when she’s called out on being a part of the J6 insurrection and a domestic terrorist. 🙄

The reality of what she has done to her life is beginning to set in. She's miserable, her colleagues on both sides don't even bother to hide their distain for her and she won't even get to be VP.
As she keeps getting humiliated, she's going to get worse until she cracks.
Controversial Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R) probably thought she’d laid a nasty burn on a Democratic House colleague Monday when she accused him of bad hygiene, but her comments came back to bite her right on the butt.
During a hearing of the House Rules Committee meeting, Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA) noted that all Greene wants to do is try and impeach as many members of the Biden administration as possible instead of actually governing.
“The clowns are running the circus. We’re wasting time on Marjorie Taylor Greene because she wants to impeach someone. Don’t get me started on her absurd censure resolution of Congresswoman Omar that she introduced because she doesn’t know how to use Google Translate.”

Rather than actually debate McGovern on the matter, Greene fired off a nasty post on Twitter/X in which she made a strange accusation against him.
“Wow, this is coming from the same guy who is well known to lay his suit jacket on the actual bathroom floor while spending a lot of time in the stall of the first floor bathroom of the Capitol. Eww. That’s probably when he comes up with all this [poop emoji].”

She’s so worried about being called a clown by him that she’ll stoop to extreme levels. So proud she’s representing our country. What a damn embarrassment she is
This is the last season of Larry David’s brilliant HBO comedy series “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” and the show is going out with a major bang based on the first episode which aired Sunday.
The episode, “Atlanta,” mocks new election laws in the state of Georgia which make it a crime for anyone to provide water to voters who are standing in line to cast a ballot in the Peach State.
“At the end of the episode, David was arrested for inadvertently breaking state law by providing water to a friend waiting in line to vote. ‘I was just being cordial!’ David screams as he’s dragged away.”
Executive producer Jeff Schaffer noted that the episode was shot in Atlanta around the same time disgraced former president Donald Trump was forced to show up for booking and a mugshot.
“Trump gets caught with one of his many hands in one of the many cookie jars, and I remember just walking in and I said to Larry, ‘This is crazy. You’re in Atlanta, he’s in Atlanta, you just got arrested. Let’s do this!’ We had to wait until the strike was over to even be able to shoot Larry looking like our former Oompa Loompa. So it came completely afterwards.”
Here’s David’s mugshot:

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) had his mic muted and interview ended when he began lying and spouting bullshit during a Sunday appearance on This Week with host George Stephanopoulos.
Stephanopoulos asked Vance about comments he’d made in a 2021 interview in which he declared, “I think that what Trump should do, like if I was giving him one piece of advice, fire every single mid-level bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, replace them with our people, and when the courts, because you will get taken to court, and then when the courts stop you, stand before the country like Andrew Jackson did and say the Chief Justice has made his ruling, now let him enforce it.”
“Fire everyone in the government, then defy the Supreme Court,” “You said every civil servant in the administrative state,”said. “Do you think it’s okay for the President to defy the Supreme Court?”
“No, no, George, I did not say fire everyone in the government,” Vance insisted. “I said replace the mid-level bureaucrats with people who are responsive to the administration.”
“You said every civil servant in the administrative state,” Stephanopoulos noted.
“Let me finish the answer,” Vance replied. “If those people aren’t following the rules, then, of course, you’ve got to fire them, and, of course, the president has to be able to run the government as he thinks he should.”
“The Constitution also says the president must abide by legitimate Supreme Court rulings, doesn’t it?” Stephanopoulos inquired.
“You’re talking about a hypothetical where the Supreme Court tries to run the military,” Vance said. “I don’t think that’s gonna happen, George, but, of course, if it did, the president would have to respond to it.”
“You didn’t say military in your answer, and you’ve made it very clear,” the ABC host countered. “You believe the president can defy the Supreme Court.”
“No, no, no, no, George.”
Vance’s mic was cut at that point and the program went to another segment.
J.D. Vance, like almost every member of today’s GOP, is a hack who would gladly approve of a right-wing president ruling the United States like a modern-day Caesar. And that alone is reason enough to vote them all out.
