Joe Biden Calls Obama a "Puppet Master" for the First Time


In a surprising turn of events, President Joe Biden recently referred to former President Barack Obama as a "puppet master" during a public address. This remark has sparked widespread discussion and analysis among political commentators and the public alike. 

The context of Biden’s comment came during a speech at a Democratic fundraiser, where he was discussing the legacy and influence of his predecessor. Biden, who served as Vice President under Obama, highlighted the former President's strategic acumen and his behind-the-scenes role in shaping policy and political strategy. "Barack has always been the puppet master, orchestrating and guiding from behind the scenes with unparalleled skill," Biden stated, acknowledging Obama's profound impact on his own presidency and the broader Democratic Party.

This statement marks the first time Biden has publicly used such a term to describe Obama, which some interpret as a sign of deep respect and acknowledgment of Obama's mentorship and influence. However, it has also raised eyebrows, with critics suggesting it might imply that Biden’s administration is heavily influenced by Obama-era policies and strategies.

Supporters argue that Biden's comment underscores the continuity and stability within the Democratic leadership, emphasizing a shared vision and collaborative approach. They see it as a testament to the strong bond between Biden and Obama, reflecting a unified front in addressing national challenges.

Regardless of interpretation, Biden’s remark has undoubtedly added a new layer to the ongoing discourse about the dynamics within the Democratic Party, highlighting the enduring legacy of Barack Obama in American politics.

The Endless Cycle of Misinformation and Deflection: Biden, Harris, and the 2024 Campaign

For four long years, a column was being written in the press, a persistent narrative that followed President Joe Biden through his term in office. Every time Biden faced tough questions or criticism, he would pause, take a deep breath, and yell back, branding the conversation as either "misinformation" or "disinformation." It became almost a hallmark of his response—deflecting any criticism by labeling it as part of some broader, nefarious campaign to distort the truth.  This strategy came full circle the day Biden signed his name to a critical decision: his reelection announcement for 2024. By deciding to run again, Biden’s reelection bid felt like the culmination of a column that had been continuously drafted, edited, and critiqued. His familiar refrain against “misinformation” became, in essence, the core message of his defense—any challenge to his policies or leadership was dismissed as an attack not based on facts but on falsehoods. But the story didn’t end the...
