Unemployment up again
It's CYA-time in the mainstream media
Don’t take my word for it, take Jill Abramson’s. Take Olivia Nuzzi’s, who just wrote an intolerable piece for New York magazine titled “The Conspiracy of Silence to Protect Joe Biden” where she unwittingly revealed that she’d been sitting on this story for over half a year. Hence the media rage: They did their job — why, look at how enthusiastically they coordinated with the White House on the “cheap fakes” story a mere two weeks ago! — but Biden failed to keep up his end of the deal, and now he’s going to pay. Not for being a senile vegetable posing as commander in chief while directed by a coterie of Jill Biden’s secretaries, mind you, but for dropping the curtain and revealing how deep an inside game the press has always played with the Democrats. “We simply had no idea!” is not going to wash with an American public that itself has been deeply concerned with Biden’s decline for years, only to be told how ignorant we were for falling for “cheap fakes” and Fox News propaganda.
Everybody act surprised

The debate was not an aberration

I'm going to say something nice about the press
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Morning Joe
Joe Scarborough, a few months ago: Biden is better than he’s ever been.

Joe Scarborough, post-debate: Thank God it’s June, we have time to replace him. This is the last chance.
Joe Scarborough, now: Everyone slow down, it’s only July. There is plenty of time.

Yes, we noticed
"Democracy Dies in Darkness," reads The Washington Post's masthead slogan, conveniently adopted mere weeks after former President Donald Trump took office in 2017. Come again? We don't actually know who is running the country right now. It certainly isn't Uncle Joe. Now that is some serious "darkness."Never forgive, and never forget, what these lying miscreants have done to us -- and to the republic.

About that "leaked" video
Kamala or bust?
You all live in a fantasy world. How do you think the Democratic base would respond to the VP, a woman and POC getting passed over? I mean, do you guys actually get paid to come up with this fan ficition? The Post is slipping, and slipping fast.That's not to mention that almost none of the money raised nor the campaign apparatus would transfer to a replacement candidate. Again, this entire piece is just fantasy world stuff.
No notecards, George
"Fact-based reporting"
The New York Times literally citied videos of Biden freezing up yesterday, that two weeks ago they called misleading cheap fakes. https://t.co/bU1sP5DCUK

C'mon, man: there ain't gonna be a second debate

Money money money
Fox News: "Uncharted territory: Could campaign finances keep Biden on the ballot?" - "An FEC commissioner said there are 'too many hurdles' to replacing Biden as the nominee."
No, Joe, keep fighting!
I know — I know — I know right from wrong. (Applause.) And I know how to do this job. (Applause.) I know how to get things done. (Applause.) And I know like millions of Americans know: When you get knocked down, you get back up. (Applause.)
Lot of resume updating in the West Wing
A conspiracy of lies
I think the clearest answer is that a lot of people in the major mainstream media are really lousy at their jobs, because they wake up every morning asking, “How can I convince people that Democrats are good and Republicans are bad?” instead of asking, “What’s going on in the world, and what do my readers, viewers, or listeners need to know about it?”

Let's go Joe!

Everything's fine!
Schedule update
The White House says Dementia Joe will give a statement on the Supreme Court's immunity ruling at 7:45pm tonight.
But - really - this is just an opening so that Biden can take some shouted questions and then declare that he's staying in the race. That's the only reason they shoehorned in this last-minute event.
Update - Meh, no questions taken, just reading off the teleprompter and shuffling away.
