We can all debate issues, whether it be tax reform, immigration, or abortion. There are well-meaning people on both sides of those issues and legitimate points can be made by folks on both sides . But outright falsehoods and crazy conspiracies can't be debated. They need to be called out and exposed for what they are. - dangers to the survival of democracy. If you know of a lie that is being propagated, feel free to post the fact-check of that lie here. We are losing people to this kind of stuff. Good people, with fears and prejudices, are being radicalized by the dissemination of this kind of disinformation. I know, I've lost family members to this craziness. Let's all help STOP THE STEALING of our people's minds.
We'll start with Hunter Biden. There has been none(ZERO!) evidence linking Hunter Biden to child pornography and pedophilia.
From PolitiFact:
Two weeks until Election Day, social media is rife with attacks on Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden.
A New York Post story about a recovered computer hard drive led to attacks about the Biden son’s business dealings. Facebook and cable news have gone further to suggest new and unsupported theories about what’s on the hard drive.
One text post says, "Hunter Biden had 25,000 pics of him torturing and raping children under age 10 in China on his laptop!"
Claims like this were amplified by websites like Natural News and InfoWars. Facebook has long banned the sites for posting anti-vaccine misinformation and hate speech, but we found one InfoWars video on Facebook with more than 173,000 views. It claims Trump "has footage of Hunter Biden raping and torturing little girls."
These posts were flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook.) Similar posts have been shared tens of thousands of times, according to CrowdTangle, a social media insights tool.
We can’t say for certain what is or isn’t on a hard drive. But there is no evidence to support allegations that it contains thousands of images of Hunter Biden abusing children in China.
The unproven claim has roots on a fringe internet forum that’s a known source of online disinformation, 4chan.
...
Our ruling
Several Facebook posts claim "Hunter Biden had 25,000 pics of him torturing and raping children under age 10 in China on his laptop."
There is no evidence to support that.
The allegation originated on an anonymous internet forum that’s a known source of online disinformation, and conspiracy websites that reported the claims relied on anonymous sources to back them up. The New York Post’s story about Hunter Biden’s laptop is unconfirmed — but it also does not mention child pornography. The owner of the computer repair shop where the laptop came from told reporters he didn’t see child pornography on it.
Without information to support the allegations, we rate the posts False.

One of the lies that conservatives and Trump supporters in my circle of colleagues, acquaintances, and even family have spread is the one about Joe Biden having dementia. When I ask them how do they know that they say something like, "They were talking about it on FOX" or "isn't it obvious? ." Well, no, it isn't obvious at all. The fact is, none of us have the mental acuity that we had twenty or thirty years ago . But the lies about the president are meant to suggest that his mental cognition is so far gone that he can't carry out his duties of the country's chief executive. The is ZERO evidence of that!
Geriatrics experts say Brit Hume’s claim that Joe Biden is ‘senile’ is wrong.
A persistent Republican line of attack against Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is the allegation that he is not mentally fit to lead the nation. President Donald Trump amplifies that claim at his rallies and so do pundits on Fox News.
On the night of the Sept. 29 presidential debate in Cleveland, Fox News’ senior political analyst Brit Hume said on TV that despite Trump’s claims about Biden’s health, Biden might do okay at the debate, since Biden "did just fine" when he debated Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., during the Democratic primary. Hume then called Biden "senile."
Broadly, the word senile is defined as pertaining to old age. But often it is used by some people in association with memory loss problems or diseases that are not a normal part of aging.
PolitiFact contacted experts in the health care of older people for their take on Hume’s use of the word senile and its application to Biden. They said Hume’s characterization is wrong.
... The word "senile" may create a mental picture of someone who has stooped posture, is slow moving and cognitively impaired, Jurivich said. "I don't think any of these descriptors match Joe Biden's demeanor and vigor," he said.
From a geriatrician's perspective, Jurivich said, "the use of ‘senile’ is a pejorative descriptor and reflects unmitigated ageism."
In December 2019, Biden’s primary care physician, at Biden’s request, issued a summary of his medical and surgical history. "Vice president Biden is a healthy, vigorous, 77-year-old male, who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the presidency, to include those as chief executive, head of state and commander in chief," wrote Kevin C. O’Connor, Biden’s doctor since 2009 and director of executive medicine at The GW Medical Faculty Associates.
Senility is not a precise medical term, but is often used in place of the more precise and accepted medical term of "dementia," said Kenneth Langa, Cyrus Sturgis Professor of Medicine at the University of Michigan Medical School.
Jurivich also said that decades ago, "doctors lacking knowledge at the time may have used the term ‘senile dementia’ as (a) component of aging, which we now know to be untrue."
There is a range of cognitive decline or changes that can happen as someone ages, and nearly everyone has some slowing of brain function with aging, Langa noted. Increasing difficulty in finding words or remembering names is also nearly universal, he said.
Dementia is defined as cognitive decline that is severe enough to cause someone to lose the ability to function independently in daily life, Langa said. "Joe Biden clearly does not have dementia," he said.
"It is possible that Biden may have more difficulties finding some words and speaking smoothly than when he was younger," Langa said. But that does not mean he is "senile" or even that he has "mild cognitive impairment," he said.
Jurivich said he has seen Biden in person and watched him during the debates with Trump and with Democratic primary candidates. He said he’s noticed that periodically Biden "pauses and has a perplexed look on his face as he collects himself to compensate for his stutter."
"It is said that up to 80% of communication is through non-verbal cues, and I feel that people misinterpret Joe Biden's facial expressions as something other than his adaptations to a childhood speech impediment," Jurivich said.

[b]Our ruling[/b]
Hume said there isn’t "any doubt Biden’s senile."
Actually, there’s quite a lot of doubt. Geriatrics experts said they do not observe Biden to be "senile" — a word that may imply someone is slow moving and cognitively impaired.
The word "senile," which one expert said was a pejorative, is also often used by some people to mean dementia. A person with dementia has difficulties independently carrying out daily life functions. The experts we spoke to said Biden does not exhibit this problem.
We rate Hume’s claim False.

Let me rephrase the question. Why has China Joe failed to deliver a speech to a Joint Session of Congress yet, a speech that has traditionally been given early in a president's first term in office?
Donald Trump Joint Session Feb 28. 2017
Barack Obama Joint Session Feb 24, 2009
George W. Bush Joint Session Feb 27. 2001
Bill Clinton Joint Session Feb 17, 1993
George H. W. Bush Joint Session February 9, 1989
Ronald Reagan Joint Session February 18, 1981
The answer is pretty obvious. China Joe is not mentally fit to deliver a short speech, let alone a stem winder. Biden has still not spoken to Netanyahu - Kamala Harris took the call instead.
How much longer are Democrats going to pretend that Biden is actually fulfilling the role of a president? They are already working to strip him of war powers that other recent presidents have had.

Of course, that has to be the reason. Our federal government is afraid that despite the trillions of dollars this country has spent developing the world's most advanced weapons, it cannot protect Congress and its feeble president from unarmed mobs of the supporters of a former president.

Probably 2024, but who knows the man is still riding his bike and moving at a pretty good pace could be 2028.
oh good lord...a Trump bootlicker talking presidential competency.
the expectations you have for Joe Biden versus the acceptance for Trump incompetence...it amazes me.
Hooter, presidents have been embarrassing this country for years. No one will top Trump, but it didn’t start with him and it won’t end with Biden.
Whether he can do it or not, who needs an hour of Biden talking in this day in age? I prefer shut up and do the work.

That is why you were unwilling to post a Biden speech for a side by side comparison with a Reagan speech delivered in the final year of his presidency. Democrats hid Biden away for most of the campaign and they are continuing to hide him after the was inaugurated. The fact that he is president is a national embarrassment and the reason that Kamala Harris is making calls to our most important allies instead of Biden.(03-07-2021, 10:28 AM)Hoot Gibson Wrote:Presidential competency(03-07-2021, 08:54 AM)Cardfan1 Wrote:Winners of presidential elections are expected to perform the duties of a president. A monkey can be trained to ride a bike. Being capable of delivering a speech without getting confused and embarrassing his country is probably a better indicator of basic presidential competency.

Democrats cannot allow this charade to go on much longer. The only question is how they will install Biden's successor.

As I said before, your contention that Ronald Reagan suffered from Alzheimer's his entire second term, while insisting that Biden is mentally sharp is making you look like a total idiot. Please, continue - don't let me interrupt your display of dishonesty and ignorance.

He holds a press briefing just about every day
Instead of talking over a helicopter and telling lies
Let him do his job when he get's the Trump Flu under control and the economy roaring he will talk to you
Hell he might even go on Fox

China Joe is your kind of president - dishonest. incompetent, and a strong supporter of his Chinese bosses. You voted for him, now you will be making excuses for him until he is inevitably replaced by Kamala Harris.

***Hunter and "China Joe* allegations****
Here's the summary of PolitiFact's investigation:
• The granular details of many of the allegations about Hunter Biden’s dealings in China are supported by documentation, but larger conclusions resurrected at the end of the 2020 campaign are unsubstantiated.
• Foreign policy experts say these allegations do not add up to a picture of Joe Biden being corrupt or pursuing policies contrary to the national interest. There is no evidence that Hunter Biden came close to breaking the law, much less any evidence that his father has done so.
• Critics say that the Trump family’s financial entanglements are at least as problematic, if not more so, than the Bidens’.

You can paste the entire entry and it won't make it any more credible. People who have actually viewed the contents of the hard drive are convinced that Hunter Biden is a crooked pedophile. There is no reason to favor Politifact's opinion over a biased Republican's opinion who has actually seen the evidence first hand.

“Boomer69” stationed in his mom’s basement has the lowdown on everything Hunter, Joe, and the cabal not the fake news media.
