As President Joe Biden weighs whether to remain in the 2024 race, one of the defenses raised by the president's supporters is noteworthy—not just because of what it says about Biden's acuity but also because of what it says about the state of the modern presidency. During an appearance on MSNBC earlier this week, former Obama administration official Jeh Johnson argued that, effectively, the election is about picking an administration, not a president. "A presidency is more than just one man," Johnson told Joe Scarborough. "I would take Joe Biden at his worst day at age 86 so long as he has peo...

On June 19, the Utah legislature passed resolutions directing state government entities to ignore the Biden administration's new interpretation of Title IX, joining numerous other states who have opposed the administration's proposed expansion of anti-discrimination protections. The two resolutions, HCR301 and HJR301, declare through "legislative findings" that the new rules are an "overreach of federal administrative authority." The issue stems from the Biden administration's proposed interpretative rule, released in April, which would expand the enforceable scope of Title IX of the Education...

Addressing questions from reporters at the White House on Wednesday, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre once again attributed President Joe Biden's disastrous debate performance to jet lag following travel and a cold. "He had a schedule that was rigorous, the travel he had to do, going from Italy all the way to the west coast," said Jean-Pierre. "I think, that can have a toll on anyone, whether you're 20 or 80." Most people don't get to travel in as much relative comfort as the president of the United States—there's a bed on Air Force One, after all—but yes, it's true that travel can be exhaus...

On Tuesday, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced that it would sell 1 million barrels of gasoline, equaling 42 million gallons, from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) ahead of July 4. A DOE press release said the sale would largely impact "the states of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania." "The Biden-Harris Administration continues to take strategic action to lower prices for American consumers in every aspect of their lives—especially as summer driving season ramps up," said DOE Secretary Jennifer Granho...

Who's really running the show? Following President Joe Biden's abysmal performance at Thursday's debate, press coverage has sought to investigate how exactly Biden's cognitive decline got this bad without it becoming a major scandal earlier. The story Politico has offered: Biden's public appearances are so tightly controlled by his shrinking inner circle, which has been running interference for him as his mind atrophies. "The number of people who have access to the president has gotten smaller and smaller and smaller. They've been digging deeper into the bunker for months now," a Democratic st...

Most coverage of last week's geriatric cage match of a debate focuses on the impact of Joe Biden's obvious cognitive and physical decline on his prospects as the Democratic presidential candidate. More important though, is that he is currently the U.S. president, supposedly exercising the (excessive) responsibilities of that office, including reacting to firestorms foreign and domestic in an increasingly crisis-rich environment. That he's clearly incapable of doing anything of the sort, and that many government officials obviously covered for his deficiencies, is disturbing and bodes poorly fo...

By now, any interested person with an internet connection has seen President Joe Biden's uncomfortably poor showing in his first debate against former President Donald Trump for the 2024 presidential campaign season. Contrary to assurances that, behind closed doors, Biden is as sharp and lucid as ever, the president appeared frail and struggled to even make his most basic points for most of the 90-minute debate, renewing concerns about his age and mental fitness. Much of the ensuing news coverage involves the possibility of Democrats replacing Biden on the ticket in November. But whatever ulti...

One of President Joe Biden's pledges upon entering office in 2021 was to expand Americans' access to high-speed broadband internet. But despite apportioning tens of billions of dollars to the task, not one person has been connected to the internet as a result of the initiative. Contained within the 2021 infrastructure bill, the Broadband Equity Access and Deployment (BEAD) program authorized more than $42 billion in grants, to "connect everyone in America to reliable, affordable high-speed internet by the end of the decade." "In 2021, the Biden Administration got $42.45 billion from Congress t...
