At the grand opening of the Barack Obama Presidential Center in Chicago on Thursday, former President Joe Biden reminded everyone of the cognitive impairment that forced him out of the 2024 presidential race.

“Where’s my granddaughter?” Biden asked in an awkward moment on stage.

As he often did during his presidency, Biden appeared confused.

The awkward moment occurred shortly after former President Barack Obama began leaving the stage to the sound of upbeat music. Obama even played the air guitar as he bounced his way toward the exit.

Former First Lady Jill Biden followed close behind.

Then, around the 15-second mark of a clip posted to X, the camera panned back toward the middle of the stage. There stood former President Biden, seemingly unaware that the others had departed.

Standing at the microphone, former President Biden removed his sunglasses and squinted as he peered into the audience.

A confused look came over his face. No doubt the audience felt equally confused as he stood there, looking as if he planned to give a speech.

The music stopped.

“Where’s my granddaughter?” he asked.

At that point, the camera panned upward. It panned down again in time to catch former President Biden finally shuffling off stage.

According to the New York Post, former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and their spouses attended the ceremony. So, too, did former Vice President Kamala Harris.

Celebrities in attendance included actor Tom Hanks.

Former President Biden, of course, infamously stumbled his way through a June 2024 debate against Trump. Weeks later, leading Democrats forced him out of the presidential race and replaced him with Harris atop the ticket.

This is huge - and absolutely insane. Child Protective Services (CPS) has to approve families who want to homeschool. HUGE. HUGE!!!! Ponder this over your coffee... seriously ponder this.

 

 

Connecticut officials just adopted the first major new restriction on homeschooling in America in decades, forcing parents to seek permission from “child welfare” authorities while imposing a slew of new regulations on families who exit government schools. Advocates for home education blasted the move. And they vowed to fight on.

The legislation, known as House Bill 5468 and signed into law as Public Act 26-37 or “An Act Concerning the Provision of Parent-Managed Learning,” treats all homeschool families as guilty until proven innocent, critics said. Before starting to homeschool, parents must report to the government and receive approval from the Department of Children and Families to proceed.

The unprecedented measure also purports to force parents to provide government-approved “education.” Language ordering homeschoolers to have “equivalent instruction” to government’s was removed. But the final bill signed into law by Governor Ned Lamont last week still decrees that parents must follow the studies taught in government schools.

The bill was so controversial that all Republicans and even some Democrats voted against it. But even with no GOP support, the legislation was approved by the House in a 96 to 53 vote and 22 to 14 by the Senate. Thousands of concerned citizens spoke out and testified against the bill, while just a handful expressed support.

“The state has a responsibility to protect children,” argued State Senate Pro Tem Martin Looney, a Democrat, before voting to support the controversial bill. “In other words, it’s not only the parents who have a responsibility for those children.” 

He did not mention the epidemic of sexual abuse, drugs, crime, illiteracy, and suicide in public education.

But Republicans pointed out that the state’s child-welfare bureaucracy was in shambles.
