I was reminded of Mystery Science Theater 3000 watching your hilarious commentary. Biden said a lot of nothing and some truly horrifying things.
Well if that's the white house, then where's the grifters white house I've heard too much about? And clapping, for gargoyles, where did an audience that sarcastic come from?
At least we were treated to persistent vigorous cane-wagging to keep us awake and make sense of it all, really couldn't cane -tain my laughter watching this! #BigStructuralCane2024 #BreakTheCane-opyOfPossibility #Can'tCane-tainTheCane #NoComplainCuzCane2Gain #Canetoads #MichaelCane #HolyShitWe'reDooomedMoveToCane-ida
…
cane.
Pretty tacky of Biden to work a plug for his wife's book in there.
Cameltoe cornpop. Catastrophe
We understand how broken America is. We know America does not work and some are more " equal than others " Stalin the pig in Orwell's Animal Farm.
Nothing wrong with Bernies Cliff notes..I suspect that Kamala isthe de facto President but she is a Jewish Montrealer whose parents were public intellectuals and as foreign to American media as I am.
.Fukiyama was wrong and John Ralston Saul was correct when his Voltaire's Bastard's (The Dictatorshipof Reason in the West) was on the NYT best seller list with The End of history. Reagan called liberal democracy America's worst Nightmare in
A Time for choosing in 1964. America made the wrong choice

It was a great speech in country that has lost its way. Hopefully it is the beginning on the way back to the road to democracy.
In Montreal where Kamala grew up we have everything Biden promised. We also the highest taxesin the Americas for the wealthy and we are a democracy..
I really hate juvenile minds mocking superficial stuff like appearance, mumbling etc.
It's about the nonsense and lies, an actual wit has plenty to work with here.
Just think of all the low brow crap that gets thrown at anyone challenging the system. It ain't about that.
1:12 love how the empire head admits MORE US soldiers are killing themselves than they end up killing in their proxy wars
You can smell the pharmaceuticals in that room from space.
No wonder people do drugs when these are the so called leaders. So few of them actually serve THE PEOPLE. The ones that did got chased out, like Dennis Kucinich.
Thank you Katie! Love your presence and program! We need more women STELLAR podcasters.
why the FUKD is kamala literally standing up after everything that biden says?
why is kamala being such a kiss a88 for biden?? standing up to everything he says
I only watched the commentary at the end. I had the same analysis as many of your panelists which was missing in some of the other youtube channels. The irony of Biden he would defend SS and Medicare when he explicity said SS and Medicare needed to be cut was not lost to me.
Great panel at the end!
I think i never ever will listen to U2.
Thanks Katie and Gary, for adding a little laughter to this horrorshow.
VP Harris is looking particularly gleeful! She seems to be exercising all through out -doing squats, and hand clapping, she must be thinking, at least I’ll have a job in the DNC somewhere! Some body catch the dribble falling off Joe’s Chin, it’s unbecoming to not attend to the elderly!
You two, btw are fucking funny — helps alleviate the anger/tension at home and complete ridiculousness of this room. Thank you!!
Okay, Joe.. let's also repeal NAFTA and reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act.
"Chuck Schumer looking for some more spine" got me.
how could a world leader not mention the tragedy in syria and turkey. the selfishness and hypocrisy of the usa is astounding
I am not hopeful for 2024. 🙁
Inflation went down ??? Tell me where, in Dover Delaware Inflation is at about 28% and going up !!!!
The state of the BULL SH#T !!!
There’s no video
There's never a meteor strike when you need one.
Gareth Renolds is funny! Must have him do these things more.
Well said!
I know cuck is a bad word now, because the worker has been cucked for decades now. But, as a cuck, I love watching these oligarchs fuck anything that moves for a profit. Hey, Joe, put those druggies in prison!
I don't think your guest is that funny. Plenty of joke material, too bad he had to make fun of his stutter
The Emperor has no clothes, and pixellation won't save us.
Basically, it is Build Back Better by starting wars and deindustrialising Europe.
The left hating the left. Cool…
Gary has no idea what code pink is about.
I went soo drunk….I chose "Jobs". All that low paid jobs to reduce production costs, we made so much profit.
