Morning Glory: President Biden's politburo strikes again
Opinion by Hugh Hewitt • 2h
"He’s an addled, demented old man," Senator Tom Cotton declared about President Joe Biden on my program Monday, Christmas Eve eve.
The senator is right. It is not harsh or cruel to make such a statement, especially because its predicate was the announcement Monday morning that President Biden commuted the death sentences of 37 of 40 killers on death row in federal prison. Biden’s handlers were apparently indifferent to the feelings of the survivors of the murderers who will get the news about the killers of their loved ones during Christmas week, so why should anyone be concerned about the feelings of the president’s family and friends? Bravo Senator Cotton for stating the awful truth clearly and concisely. Joe Biden is addled and infirm. He isn’t making coherent decisions. He’s doing what he’s told to do. He’s being managed. By whom we don’t know.
This disgusting action by the handlers of the president will not be defended by the president because the president doesn’t take questions from the White House press corps anymore—because he can’t.
Who are the only death row prisoners in the federal system not being given this gift by whomever is making decisions in the president’s name? The Boston Marathon bomber and the killers of the congregants at Mother Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston and the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh are the unlucky three. Those killers were a bridge too far for whomever is guiding the president’s hand on the commutation form. There is no explanation as to why not these three, no standard articulated. The president’s handlers just don’t care about coherence or plausibility. They are counting on the legacy media that has never met them down yet.
