Wicked Jill — when her power evaporates even roaches will refuse food from her hand.

Mr. Faddis:

Great observations, especially about the timing and purpose of the Vogue article (I had assumed coincidence, but now I think that you're on to something).

Her lust for power, and latching on to Joe Biden all those years ago, is (at a minimum) plausible. In that regard, not unlike Kamala Harris and Willie Brown.

I also think that Jill realizes that continuing a grasp on the Oval Office may be the only thing standing between their current power and life of luxury, and the entire Biden clan spending the rest of their lives in prison.

I had not thought of that. Her delusional performances are a manifestation of the Bidens’ self-inflicted position of paying the price for the family’s decades of subversion with imprisonment.

Our government is the laughingstock of the world now.

Wondering if Vogue will be reimbursed for lower than normal sales of this edition of its mag. Media built a fortress around Michelle and now its time to frame one for Jill.

Kind of reminds you of the 1987 miniseries with Chris Kristofferson AMERIKA Doesn't it?

Rank and file Democrats are not enamored with Jill Biden.

I subscribe to the NY Times, horribly slanted though it is, occasionally read an article that has open comments, and I read and comment. The comments always appear to have been written by an almost monolithic group of liberals, but when I try to comment, it becomes apparent that the NY Times doesn't let comments through that stray far from its narrative. I commented on an article from yesterday titled "Biden Tells Allies He Knows He Has Only Days to Salvage Candidacy".

Almost all the commenters were saying "please, president Biden, step down, for the sake of democracy, or Trump will win" or words to that effect. They are not quite so monolithic with who they would like to replace him. Some want VP Harris, some mentioned Newsom, Whitmer, Gov Shapiro. I don't remember anyone mentioning Hillary Clinton(!)

I don't remember anyone mentioning Jill Biden. A couple expressed alarm at Hunter Biden being a close advisor.

They did let through a very few comments from people who said they were Republicans who said they wanted Biden to stay in the race. I added 8 or 9 comments, one an original one, the rest being responses to others. They only approved about half. They didn't like the one where I said Biden's presidency hadn't been great, gave some examples, and said Trump's presidency "hadn't been that bad". (Many, many commenters said Biden's presidency had been great for the country, but none that I saw gave any examples).

I plan to do a (very likely boring) substack on this later today.
