Joe Biden got lost in the bushes outside the White House Wednesday, after returning from a long weekend at his home in Wilmington, Delaware. Biden walked right past a Secret Service agent who was pointing the right way and stumbled into the bushes until he saw a side door, which he had to open himself. The President of the United States does not open his own doors at the White House.

Bidenās declining cognitive skills have become blatantly obvious ā fodder for late-night comics. He can’t complete a simple sentence unless heās reading from a teleprompter. His handlers have tried to offer the excuse that Biden suffers from a stutter, but whatās wrong with Joe is far more serious than a speech impediment. Biden drifts off mid-sentence and appears to lose touch with reality.
Itās happening far too often for comfort.
The President has become a puppet, who has to be led ā sometimes by the hand ā to waiting news cameras, where he stumbles through speeches that someone else has obviously written.
So, who is pulling Bidenās strings?
In my humble opinion, in the Biden-Harris Administrationās war against our guns, former Obama national security advisor and UN Ambassador, Susan Rice, who now serves as Bidenās domestic policy advisor, is clearly calling the shots. Rice has a staunch anti-gun pedigree, coupled with direct access to Biden ā and Obama ā and the means and ability to orchestrate the war against our God-given, constitutional rights.
The evidence is everywhere.
The anti-gun forces love this woman. They were overjoyed when Biden appointed her as one of his closest advisors.
āAmbassador Susan Rice recognizes that gun violence is one of the most urgent threats facing our country, and through this appointment, President-elect Biden is continuing to build the strongest gun safety administration in history,ā John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety, said in a statement heralding her appointment. āAs Ambassador Rice said in our Demanding Women conversation this summer, āthe American people want common-sense gun lawsā ā and weāre excited to work with her to make that happen.ā
āAmbassador Rice is committed to ending our gun violence epidemic, and she understands that COVID-19 has dramatically exacerbated our gun violence crisis,ā Shannon Watts, leader of Moms Demand Action, said in the same statement. āHer appointment is proof positive that this administration is wasting no time in addressing the gun violence that takes 100 lives every day and wounds hundreds more. I know Ambassador Rice will be instrumental in helping tackle these dual public health crises.ā
Extremist views
Riceās anti-gun history is well documented.
In 2018, according to Everytown, then-Ambassador Rice signed a letter calling āgun violenceā a national security threat. The letter called on officials to āban assault weapons, mandate background checks and waiting periods, and raise the minimum age to purchase guns.ā
In 2020, when she was one of several vice-presidential contenders, Rice told a live Twitter audience that āIn the Obama-Biden administration, we implemented more than two dozen very important reforms that put curbs on access to guns, but we need legislation. We need Joe Biden in the White House and Democrats in control of the House and the Senate.ā
Rice also claimed that because she grew up in the District of Columbia, which has some of the nationās strictest anti-gun laws and the skyrocketing crime rates they produce, she had the expertise needed to make a good vice president.
In February 2021, according to a statement from the White House press office, Rice held a virtual meeting with the leaders of Everytown, Moms Demand Action, Giffords and Brady. To be clear, she met with the entire anti-gun lobby personally, without her boss.
āThey discussed the ongoing public health crisis of gun violence in America, the historic increase in homicides across American cities last year, and commonsense steps that can be taken to make our communities safer such as closing background check loopholes, stopping the proliferation of unregulated and untraceable āghostā guns, and expanding community-based violence intervention programs,ā the statement reads.
After the meeting, White House spokesperson Jen Psaki told reporters that Rice, and of course Biden, would be āworking on gun control policies over the coming weeks.ā Psaki added that the White House and the anti-gun groups had āshared goals.ā
Just this month, according to a White House statement, Rice met with Attorneys General from the District of Columbia, New York, New Jersey, California, Pennsylvania, Washington state, Massachusetts and Connecticut, to discuss āpolicies and strategies for holding gun manufacturers and dealers accountable for wrongful conduct that contributes to the supply of firearms used to commit gun crimes.ā
The group strategized about various methods they could use, such as state consumer-protection and nuisance lawsuits, for end-runs around the federal Protection of Lawful Commerce Act, which shields gun manufacturers from exactly the type of frivolous litigation Rice and the AGs discussed.
āAs directed in the Presidentās gun crime reduction strategy, participants in the convening also discussed how we can hold gun manufacturers and dealers accountable for unlawful conduct while PLCAA is still the law of the land,ā the statement reads.
āAttorneys general discussed the opportunity and barriers to using generally applicable state consumer protection and nuisance laws to take action against gun manufacturers and gun dealers under PLCAAās predicate exception. They also discussed how state legislators could enact firearm-specific liability laws, like New York Stateās new law, to potentially create new predicates allowing litigation to proceed under PLCAA.ā
The unelected president
The country has seen powerful presidential advisors before, but it is highly unlikely that Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod or Jared Kushner ever told their bosses what to do. They offered advice, not marching orders.
The difference with Riceās position is Bidenās declining mental health. I have no doubt that not only does Rice tell Joe what to say, she tells him where to stand and what to wear when heās saying it. She has gone way past simply advising Biden, and has clearly taken personal charge of the war on our gun rights, and the role that her former boss, Barack Obama, plays in her decision making has yet to be fully revealed.
That Rice is unelected to any office yet wields so much personal power should scare every American, regardless of their political party, especially since she has a history of extremist views, which our out of step with mainstream Americans.
To be clear, Rice has opened the White House doors ā which Biden is sometimes lucky to find ā to every anti-gun organization in the country, and has even allowed them to make major personnel decisions. How else do you think David Chipman was chosen to lead the ATF? Chipman was working for Giffords when Giffords met with Rice at the White House.
If you need further proof of Riceās power, she just colluded with eight Attorneys General on how to circumvent federal law in order to put lawful gun makers out of business. The AGs are sworn to uphold the law, not find workarounds to suit their personal beliefs, yet none of them were held accountable for the conspiracy.
Regardless of which president Rice is truly serving ā Biden or Obama ā as long as sheās just a short walk from the Oval Office, our God-given, constitutional rights are in peril.

![By Larry Keane President Joe Biden traveled to New York City for a media event to try and show America heās doing something about rampant crime. Instead, he blamed the Second Amendment and lawful gun owners, said nothing about holding criminals to account and repeated the same tired lies about the firearm industry he keeps at the ready ā lies āfact-checkedā as being false each time heās previously recited them. It makes no difference to the president. Heās not even trying anymore. To President Biden and national gun control groups the problem is always the gun and the law-abiding members of the industry. Itās never the criminal. Blaming the āResistanceā President Biden was joined by U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams for a āGun Violence Strategies Partnershipā meeting to talk about how to solve the crime surge, particularly those involving firearms. Instead of real solutions, the focus devolved into blaming law-abiding gun owners and again pushing a gun control agenda. āEnough is enough,ā President Biden said. āBecause we know we can do things about this, but for the resistance, weāre getting from some sectors of the government and the Congress and the state legislatures, and the organizational structures out there.ā That āresistanceā the president spoke of is the American people. Over the past two years theyāve become fed up with police defunding policies and soft-on-crime prosecutors, like Manhattanās Democratic District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Theyāve invested in their own safety. The āresistanceā is the 21 million lawful gun buyers in 2020, including more than 8.4 million first-time buyers, and the 18.5 million gun buyers in 2021, with more than 5.4 million first-timers. The āresistanceā has backstopped Congress from passing federal gun control that donāt address crime. It also stopped President Bidenās nominations of paid gun control lobbyist David Chipman to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and banking activist Saule Omarova as Comptroller of the Currency because not even all U.S. Senate Democrats could support them. They would have turned those agencies into bludgeons to hammer the firearm industry to achieve a special interest, gun control agenda. Favorite Falsehoods The president turned his aim from lawful gun owners towards the firearm industry and repeated a lie heās rehearsed several times before. āImagine had we had a liabilā¦ [sic] theyāre the only industry in America that is exempted from being able to be sued by the public. Only one,ā the president protested. āWhy the gun manufacturers?ā¦ Itās got to end. Theyāve got to be held responsible for the things they do that are irresponsible.ā He repeated the claim for emphasis. āAnd I find that outrageous.ā This is flatly false. The president knows by now, or his speechwriters do and they donāt bother with the facts. CNN, Politicfact and Washington Post have all checked President Biden on his remark, including after he said it in the White House Rose Garden. CNN cleanly rebuked it. āThis is false. Gun manufacturers are not entirely exempt from being sued, nor are they only industry with some liability protections.ā Politifact rated it āfalse.ā Washington Post wasnāt kinder, saying, āBiden is wrong to claim the gun industry is totally immune.ā The firearm industry has liability protections under the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), bipartisan legislation enacted under former President George W. Bush. The firearm industry cannot be held liable when unaffiliated third-parties, in this case criminals, misuse a legal, lawfully sold product. Itās fundamental tort law and is similar to an individual attempting to hold Ford and Budweiser responsible for drunk driving deaths. The law was passed in direct response to lawsuits filed against the industry by control groups and municipalities like the city of New York and the state of New York. These type of lawsuit continue to be filed, now even by foreign governments represented by the same gun control group, the Brady Center. Colonial-Era Error President Biden continued to ignore facts on the Second Amendment and its history. He even erred when speaking about the Revolution-era days and why the right to keep and bear arms was so sacrosanct. āWhen the amendment was passed, it didnāt say anybody could own a gun and any kind of gun and any kind of weapon,ā President Biden remarked. āYou couldnāt buy a cannon, and when ā the ā when this, uh, this amendment was passed.ā It did, and does, say the right of the People āshall not be infringed.ā Even The Washington Post was brutal in their assignment of āFour Pinocchioāsā to this statement. āBiden has already been fact-checked on this claim ā and itās been deemed false. We have no idea where he conjured up this notion about a ban on cannon ownership in the early days of the Republic, but he needs to stop making this claim.ā In fact, the Constitution of early America ā before the Bill of Rights, and Second Amendment, was even ratified ā granted and encouraged āspecial waiversā to American merchants and sailors, āallowing private individuals to act as pirates on behalf of the United States against countries engaged in war with it.ā Americans given waivers and who owned warships obviously also obtained cannons for use in battle. In fact, it is still perfectly legal to buy a cannon today. It is the presidentsā fundamental misunderstanding and blatant lying about the Second Amendment that informs his gun control agenda and misguided approach to solving the crime problem. Millions of law-abiding Americans took ownership of their Second Amendment rights to protect themselves, understanding the president wonāt. Instead of mangling the meaning of the right and pushing for more gun control on law-abiding Americans, the president should keep it simple. Take on the criminals and punish them for breaking the law.](https://cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/download-26-218x150.jpeg "Harris is a Human Disinformation Campaign When It Comes to Guns")
“The unelected president”
Pretty much says it all.
Minor IQ,
Samuel Langhorne Clemens TRIED to school you (“Keep your mouth shut, and let people think you are stupid. Don’t open it and remove all doubt.”). That you were incapable of grasping his sage advice?? Of a piece with your (deliberate???) misreading of the Constitution.
I used to think you were a partisan, lying hack. Then I entertained the idea that you actually WERE as asininely stupid as you appear to be.
Now I’m learning to embrace the healing power of “and”.
But, PLEASE, continue being a lying, partisan moron . . . it’s entertaining as hell.

“In the dead of night…”
Brought to you by the people always screaming about “Our Democracy!”
Make it Christmas eve and you have the SAFE act
Words matter. Note the word Shannon Watts chose in her statement:
“…gun violence that takes 100 lives every day and wounds hundreds more…”
The word “injury” is used for general incidents not involving combatants. The word “wound” is used in war.
Yes Haz, the left controls the language and the narrative.
How many times do conservatives still refer to them as “Liberals”?
Liberal is from Liberty, which is synonymous with Freedom.
What about Gun violence? Is that like car violence, or hammer violence?
Or for that matter, refer to firearms as “weapons”?
They called themselves liberals for decades. The name stuck. It’s now associated with an ever expanding and more oppressive government and welfare state, rather than the original meaning which was for smaller government and freedom.
At I least I have the courage to use my same username and take any criticisms like a man, unlike you who walks into the room with a different name tag each day. You post comments, get rightly trashed by others here, and post the next day under a different name in an attempt to avoid recognition. So who’s the coward, All Hail?
Or is that Hurr Durr? Or Chewboxxa? Or A True Patriot? Or A True Christian? You keep skittering away to new names when the spotlight is shined on you, like the cockroach you are.
What an actual doofus!
“Oooooo. Real talk from a pansy…”
Pansy? Stupid little boy, Haz is married with grown kids.
The ‘pansy’ is you, the one who never got married, or even laid for that matter… š

How did the war on drugs work?
I didn’t get mine.
The bastards… š
That depends on what you wanted out of it.
I totally support ending the War on Drugs. And then we can begin to shoot drug users dead on site. When they rob, rape, steal, murder, break into or vandalize private property. Because drug users are unreliable people that no business wants to take a chance on hiring them. Which is why they steal to feed their habits in the first place. They just have to deal with the consequences of their actions. Freedom is messy.
If drug users can figure out a way to feed their habit without violating civil rights of other people, then more power to them.
They kicked my ass pretty good at the battle of Pensacola Beach,
That was good for a laugh.
The whole administration is being run by Obama retreads. Obama’s third term.
The whole administration is being run by Obama.
Which means the housing market and economy should crash in 3,2,1……….
If they keep spending trillions on nonsense this will actually happen.
Everyone’s getting their pork, didn’t Chucky get a tunnel or something?
Yes. I mentioned this here long ago. Obama is the puppet master via Susan Rice.
It was obvious during the lead up to the election that Biden would be nothing more than a puppet if he managed to “win” the election. My question is, what sort of thinking person would willingly elect unknown bureaucrats to run the country? Ironically, it’s the same people that are always screaming about Our Democracy! It’s almost like they aren’t sincere people.
Obumer is not that “smart” or “competent”. NO Barry behind the curtain.
Susan Rice is a scum bag who should be barred from public office and appointed positions after the unmasking scandal during 2016. Period.
Do you remember 2017 after Benghazi when she appeared on 4 network Sunday morning shows and lied, lied, lied to protect Hillary and 0bama? What a POS.
Obama hired Susan Rice to make Jeh Johnson look smart.

I think the Secret Service agents were having some fun, and told Sleepy Joe there was some snipe to be hunted.
big(smile)
And I thought Creepy Joe couldn’t find the bathroom.
Look. It’s really simple. We donāt derive our rights from the government. We possess them because weāre born. Period. And we yield them to a government.
Old Joe has a history of creepy awkward encounters with girls and young women and has a history of getting a little too close to them. For example, aside from your reference incident:
* In February 2021 he told an Arizona nurse during a video conference that she looked ālike a freshmanā in college.
* While Joe was vice president, in 2015 during Ash Carterās swearing in ceremony as defense secretary Biden stood behind Carterās wife and held her by her shoulders and occasionally whispered in her ear. And earlier that year, Biden whispered to the 13 year old daughter of Sen. Chris Coons and gave her a kiss on the head after swearing Coons in.
* During Bidenās 2020 presidential campaign Lucy Flores claimed he grabbed her by the shoulders and kissed her hair during a Las Vegas campaign event in 2014. Days later three more women accused him of inappropriate contact. Biden released a video in which he promised to “be more mindful and respectful of peopleās personal space.”
Imagine how frustrated he is now being old and impotent! He can’t act on his deviance.
“Imagine how frustrated he is now being old and impotent!”
Just ask my demented troll, he has personal experience in being impotent… š
Good lord what do other countries think of Our theBiden, mercy.

Is this the Lee Williams that had a blog with a Florida Newspaper? I hope so, I kinda forgot about that, but liked his writing.
Doesn’t seem like anyone is in charge of anything. POTUS is in full dementia mode, VP has been pushed off to the sidelines and told to shut up and stay, Congress is more worried about not hurting the feelings of a mentally ill 1% of the nation, the border swings wide, the military is filling its ranks with skull tattooed schizos and broken souls with daddy issues, the money printer keeps going brrrrrr, half the country is still flipping apeshit over a cold with a 99.8% survival rate as they stuff their faces with garbage and chug alcohol by the gallon without a hint of irony.
It’s like everybody in the chain of responsibility just called it quits and we’re all waiting for China or extraterrestrials to just take it all off our hands.
If you shoot a politician do they glow red then disappear or do they turn into a lizard?
The Invaders are in the Whitehouse. V
I agree. Incompetence reigns supreme. Don’t worry about a government crackdown or martial law. These jokers would figure out some way to screw it up. Anyone with any sense of humor, in the country or around the world, is laughing their heads off at these West Wing cosplayers. It’s tragic, yes, but it’s even funnier.
That about sums it up. It’s a hell of a time we’re living in, isn’t it.
“āHer appointment is proof positive that this administration is wasting no time in addressing the gun violence that takes 100 lives every day and wounds hundreds more.”
Ok Shannon, but a look at the actual numbers shows that “gun violence” does not take 100 lives every day. Instead there are about 100 “gun deaths” each day. “gun deaths” and “gun violence” are not the same thing.
I know numbers and concepts with more than two words are hard for you Shannon, but basically; “gun violence” is things like homicides and intentional attacks which cause death with guns. “gun deaths” are things like suicide and accident which cause deaths with guns.
So lets put it another way simply, “gun violence” is violence committed with the use of a gun. Not all uses of a gun are violence, and not all violent uses of a gun are legally considered or reported as “gun violence”.
Although you can say that “gun violence” can end in “gun deaths” you can not equate the two to mean the same thing because they aren’t.
In 2019 U.S. Rep. Lucy McBath of Georgia claimed there were 500 “gun violence” deaths per day which is 182,500 deaths per year from gun violence in the United States.
But if the actual government data is examined (which is reported based upon four categories) there are 39,773 annual deaths related to firearms and that number includes all from “gun violence” and “gun deaths” collectively and not just “gun violence”. The number includes the four categories:
* suicides (“gun death” by personal intentional choice)
* accidents (“gun death” by accident and not violence)
* homicides and intentional attacks (“gun violence”)
* legally justified or excused homicides’ (because they are justified or excused legally they are not considered “gun violence” but rather “gun death” as a result of legally justified or excused gun use)
To show the stupidity in your claims Shannon; Of that list over half are suicide (“gun death” by personal intentional choice – this is not “gun violence”) – and 15% were the result of homicides and intentional attacks (this is “gun violence”). This makes the number of “gun violence” deaths ~ 16 every day (based upon a 365 day year) and not 100. And if we go a little further we find that hundreds more are not wounded every day either.
If we say that ALL of the 39,773 gun related deaths were due to “gun violence” that’s 108 per day but that’s not what is happening. If we give your theory the benefit of the doubt that all gun deaths are “gun violence” that’s not true either because suicides and accident and legally justified or excused homicides by gun are not reported in stats as “gun violence”
“And if we go a little further we find that hundreds more are not wounded every day either. ”
should have been
And if we go a little further we find that hundreds more are not wounded every day either. Further, if we dig deeper into the government data and start looking at individual cases specifics reporting stats we find that the number of legitimate self defense cases come to over 6,000 cases daily in the U.S. and that in most of those the bad guy did not die and was wounded so maybe this is where you get your “wounds hundreds more” so apparently you can’t count.
So there ya go, you got what you wanted which was a reduction in “gun violence” from your 100 per day (and that other idiots 500 per day) to ~16 per day without any gun control and with just telling the truth, and as an added bonus the lives of ~ 6,000 people were saved today. You know those people, they are the ones you would rather die than have had the means to save their lives by gun defense.
…it was obvious from day one that Biden was nothing more than a shoe-horn for the one to complete his term.
Biden didn’t get lost in the bushes. He diverted to the bushes because he really, really had to take a leak.
After the taxpayers bought him Depends?
Play nice children….
I still laugh everytime I hear the term “Gun Violence”. Sounds like guns are just shooting people at random. Based on the fact that the 13% commit at least 80% of “Gun Violence”, it would be logical to have a seperate and more secure safe for storage of all my black rifles and pistols. There that should make you feel safer. I am slightly overweight, I plan and throwing out all my forks and spoons. problem solved. Sorry, just thinking like a Democrat and omitting all logic and sense….
If guns are randoming shootin folks, why are so few progtard pols (some mentioned above) not hit??
