Time for another nap: Sleepy Joe's Amtrak story defies facts

He's drifiting. 

As for Amtrak it needs to be privatized. Or shut down.

From the Daily Mail:

President Joe Biden's strange anecdote about reaching 1.5 million miles on Amtrak has come under scrutiny after key inconsistencies emerged that make it impossible to have occurred as he told it.

On Friday, delivering a speech in Philadelphia commemorating the 50th anniversary of Amtrak, Biden launched into the tale of a certain conductor congratulating him on reaching the milestone as he traveled to visit his sick mother. 

Biden said the incident occurred in his 'fourth or fifth year as vice president', or around 2014-2015, at which time the conductor he named had been retired for 20 years and his mother had passed away, inconsistencies first pointed out by Fox News.

Biden's son, Hunter, once sseved on the board of Amtrak. Why?

Facebook will continue to block Trump from its platform

In my opinion Facebook would have blocked Donald J. Trump from its platform even if there was no riot at the Capitol. He's banned from Instagram too, which Facebook also owns.

Big Tech needs to be broken up bigly.

But the continuing of the ban will only harden the resolve of his millions of supporters.

From NPR:

Facebook was justified in its decision to suspend former President Donald Trump after the Jan. 6 insurrection [My note: correction, riot] at the U.S. Capitol, the company's oversight board said on Wednesday. That means the company does not have to reinstate Trump's access to Facebook and Instagram immediately. 

But the panel said the company was wrong to impose an indefinite ban and said Facebook has six months to either restore Trump's account, make his suspension permanent, or suspend him for a specific period of time.

Joe Biden repeatedly confuses vaccine website: "Vaccines.gum"

Squinty Joe Biden shouldn't need a teleprompter to read this short message about the government website, vaccines.gov. Well he does--and he still botches his reading.

Tucker obtains bodycam footage of driver hurling racial abuse at cop

Not all cops are racist. Of course! Also, not all of the drivers that are pulled over by police officers virtuous and color-blind. 

Such as this white woman, a teacher, who hurls racist insults at a Hispanic cop.

UPDATE 1:45pm CDT: 

Numerous media sources are identifying this crazy woman as black. 

And TMZ, who knows her identity but isn't saying it yet, says she hasn't taught for several years. 

Oh, she must be making good money if she is driving a Mercedes.

Sleepy Joe Biden is asleep at the switch here--that expression comes from the railroad industry--as he gets lost talking about Amtrak.
