The media’s feeding frenzy for forcing Biden out of the race continues but seems to be slackening a bit because the public isn’t climbing on board. Like a pug on your leg, WaPo and all the political sites are still humping away at it, but the broader Democratic public doesn’t seem to see the big deal, and why should they? For well over a year now, social media has been awash in edited clips that look just like what people saw at the debate, and they’ve already factored this into their decision.

So now the rampant speculation – fueled by the White House’s bumbling response to a crisis of their own making – is that Biden has Parkinson’s or some other neurologic disease, based on White House visits by a neurologist. Asking for a friend…isn’t suggesting that Parkinson’s would prevent a person from performing a job what the kidz call “ableist”?

In France, The average doctor in the U.S. graduates medical school more than $200,000 in debt. But why should the country do something about that when billionaires like Mike Bloomberg are around to shower their munificence on select medical schools one at a time? Bloomberg jumped aboard the trend by giving free tuition to Johns Hopkins University students. If you count the osteopaths, there are 195 medical schools in the U.S., and 756 billionaires (Delaware is one of only three states without one). You do the math.

They do everything bigger in Texas. While Delaware handed out $8 million of opioid settlement money with little oversight, Texas lawmakers have doled out to anti-abortion “pregnancy centers” – and continue to do so, even though abortion is now illegal in Texas.

The floor’s yours.
