I feel comfortable writing this because I know the Democrats aren’t reading RedState dot com and taking advice from me. I’m just a senior editor at a far-right website. What do I know?
To be fair, I know some of y’all ask that last question about me, too, but like Elton John in his heyday, I’m still standing.
Anyway, we have covered pretty extensively President Joe Biden’s remarks last night, and the Special Counsel report he was responding to. The report was as damning for Biden as it was hilarious for those of us who have been pointing out just how much his mind has deteriorated. Sure, it’s kind of not cool that he isn’t facing charges while Donald Trump is (though, in the interest of fairness, Trump was charged for lying to and withholding documents from a grand jury).
Last night’s address from the White House, however, was nothing short of a disaster for Joe Biden, and anyone working for him who thought it was a good idea, encouraged it, and helped him prepare needs to be fired right away. This isn’t sympathy for Biden or hope that the Democrats change their ways. This isn’t me wishing for Biden to get a better team so that he can beat Trump (I have thankfully never been approached by The Bulwark to write for them).

Published February 9, 2024
On Thursday afternoon the long awaited Special Counsel report on the investigation into Joe Biden’s deliberate mishandling of classified information as a private citizen was released to the public.
Beyond details and photos about what types of classified documents and information Biden wrongfully stored in his unsecured Delaware garage and elsewhere, Special Counsel Robert Hur detailed why the current commander-in-chief won’t be charged.
“We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during out interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” the report states. “Based on our direct interactions with and observations of him, he is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify reasonable doubt. It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”
“Mr. Biden’s memory was significantly limited, both during his recorded interviews with the ghostwriter in 2017, and in his interview with our office in 2023. And his cooperation with our investigation, including by reporting to the government that the Afghanistan documents were in his Delaware garage, will likely convince some jurors that he made an innocent mistake, rather than acting willfully-that is, with intent to break the law-as the statute requires,” the report continues.

Republican strategist Scott Jennings said Vice President Harris is now “squarely” a campaign issue, in the wake of a special counsel report on President Biden’s retention of classified documents released Thursday.
“I would say — and I don’t know how many people on this panel believe it — there aren’t too many Americans who are going to look at this and say, ‘This guy is up to serving for five more years as president of the United States,’” Jennings said on CNN’s “NewsNight” in a clip first highlighted by Mediaite.
“I think Vice President Harris became, squarely, an issue in this election today,” Jennings continued. “She already was getting there, and now, it’s even more important.”
Harris has a 40 percent approval rating, as of late January, according to a Los Angeles Times tracker of polls on her favorability. In an NBC News poll last summer, her approval was only 31 percent, a record low for vice presidents.
The report from special counsel Robert Hur, released Thursday, concluded no charges should be brought against the president, but it noted Biden had problems with memory and recall.
“We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” Hur wrote.
