President Biden on Wednesday told exhausted firefighters who’ve been battling wildfires in Los Angeles that he had some “good news” for them — he’s become a great-grandfather.
“It’s astounding what’s happening,” Mr. Biden said after meeting firefighters at Santa Monica Fire Department Station #5.


Joe makes the point for me.

I don't draw conclusions from one out of context sentence. Shame on Washington Times for its distortions and bias. But he offered federal support.
About 5 years ago a different president blamed the state for not tending the trees-- in "national" forests located on "federal" lands.

People are suffering so it was not time for such an announcement, especially from a guy who denied the existence of a grandchild for years.

And with the help of God and the American people, that President is coming back!

President Joe Biden directed the Defense Department to provide firefighting personnel, he said in a media briefing Wednesday.
The federal government will also provide five large air tankers — aircraft that can carry up to 4,000 gallons of water — from the U.S. Forest Service, 10 federal firefighting helicopters and dozens of fire engines from the U.S. Forest Service.
Ten Navy helicopters carrying water buckets will also be arriving from San Diego.

None of the fires you mentioned began on Federal lands.

A pretty trivial statement to make in this particular setting IMO

He’s darned for not acknowledging a grandchild and then darned for doing so (at an odd moment, to be sure), won’t it be great when we don’t have threads about every. Little. Thing. that JRB does?

It's a great grandchild; he's still not acknowledging she who must not be named.

America was once great.

Today, we have a president who speaks about his grandchild (most likely he forgot where he was) out of context while addressing firefighters and thousands of Californians affected by wildfires. We also have an incoming president who is considering military action against a NATO ally to occupy Greenland and using economic influence to make Canada the 51st state. I wonder what we, as Americans, have done to deserve such leaders.

Is that a rhetorical wondering or would you really like an answer?

Thirty-eight years ago, Senator Joe Biden withdrew from the presidential race due to allegations of plagiarism, which were seen as a violation of the high standards expected from the President at the time. Today, Joe Biden serves as the President of the United States.

Throughout history, U.S. politicians have dropped out of races due to extramarital affairs or sex scandals. Today, a twice-elected POTUS boasts about grabbing women, yet millions of evangelical Christians vote for him, claiming it's "God's will".

Is that a yes or a no to my question?

This is not a one time thing for Joe. Don't you remember the last big fire when Joe traveled there and recounted how he had a fire that almost destroyed his own house? Joe does not show empathy to suffering, he makes it all about himself. People have pleaded with him to find the missing children and to stop the drugs and the human trafficking, and instead he secretly flew people into the country.
