    Biden says he 'spoke to' man who 'invented' insulin, who died before president was born

    "How many of you know somebody with diabetes and needs insulin?" Biden asked the crowd. "Do you know how much it costs to make that insulin drug for diabetes? … It was invented by a man who did not patent it because he wanted it available for everyone. I spoke to him, OK?"

    However, insulin, a hormone produced in the body, was never invented but was discovered by Frederick Banting. The late physician and scientist died at the age of 49 on Feb. 21, 1941. Biden was born on Nov. 20, 1942.

    The hits just keep on comin'.

    MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — President Joe Biden verbally fumbled during a campaign swing in Florida on Tuesday, confusing the U.S. war in Iraq with the Russian war in Ukraine, and then he fumbled again while he tried to correct himself, misstating how his son Beau died in 2015.

    Sorta Biden's fault:

    ****************************************​
    The White House deleted a Twitter post on Wednesday touting an increase in Social Security benefits for seniors after the social media platform added a "context" note pointing out that the increase was tied to a 1972 law requiring automatic increases based on cost of living changes.

    "Seniors are getting the biggest increase in their Social Security checks in 10 years through President Biden's leadership," read the tweet, which was posted to the official White House account at 4:45 p.m. on Nov. 1. On Wednesday, the tweet no longer appeared on the White House's feed.
    ****************************************​
    So this increase is automatically tied to inflation, and it's happening because everything is more expensive..."through President Biden's leadership."

    I know that is the second time in recent weeks that he has stated that his son "died in Iraq," when in fact his son died of cancer. Who can't remember how their own child died??? He's told so many lies in Delusion Land that he believes them himself.

    A shocking but not surprising study /evaluation by the Heritage Foundation. Our military is the weakest it has ever been, or at least since WWII as it faces the greatest challenges it has EVER faced , largely due to incompetence at the top of the political ladder and the military's structure itself.

    Biden is making a speech in Florida tonight to try to salvage Crist's race for governor. I'm sure y'all will be watching breathlessly. ;):) He is supposed to say that this is a last chance to save our democracy. And the dastardly Republicans will take away your social security and Medicare. "And they have said it out loud!" He already said that yesterday. Lies, lies, lies.

    They are too busy making sure that soldiers use the correct pronouns to train them in combat.

    Things might be getting interesting as the 101st Airborne has now entered Ukraine, allegedly to monitor arms shipments to the Ukraine as it was discovered most of the weapons we have shipped over there have ended up on the arms market, not in the hands of the Ukrainian military. They may be getting some REAL combat training soon.

    Biden apparently made a speech yesterday in support of some candidate. In his speech, he decried coal and pledged again that he would stop drilling for oil and natural gas anywhere in the nation. The White House is scrambling to walk back what he said, and commentators said that Democrats in Texas, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Alaska, and other states were holding their heads in their hands in despair. Commentators also said Biden didn't follow his cue cards as he had been instructed by his staff.

    It was reportedly at a rally for the Democrat candidate for governor in New York.
