One of the most divisive and awful presidential administrations in U.S. history is thankfully drawing to a close, but last night Joe Biden decided America needed to hear a little more hypocrisy and projection before he heads out the door.
The president who for four years has vacationed at the homes of the billionaires he says don't "pay their fair share" had a warning about the extremely wealthy (the ones who don't let him freeload at their mansions):
President Biden issued a stark warning to the country during his farewell address.

We're apparently supposed to forget the fact that not even two weeks ago Biden gave a Medal of Freedom to billionaire Dem backer and real-life Bond villain George Soros:

Also a president pardoning his own son for gun and tax evasion crimes seems kind of oligarch-ish, but maybe it's just me.
The politician who's been a serial liar for decades also decided to lecture us about "misinformation" while again proving he's an enemy of free speech:

BIDEN GOES AFTER FREE SPEECH: "Americans are being buried under an avalanche of misinformation...The free press is crumbling. Editors are disappearing. Social media is giving up on fact-checking."

On the plus side, these people are panicking because they're no longer in control of the narrative.
What struck me the most about the message Team Biden is trying to send as they load up the U-Hauls and leave the White House is that they've done an amazing job but us peasants either too stupid to recognize it or haven't felt the effects yet:
It will take time to feel the full impact of all that my Administration has done.
— President Biden (@POTUS) January 16, 2025
But the seeds we planted will grow and bloom for decades to come.
We haven't felt the full impact yet? Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of!
They're basically trying to set the stage to take credit for what happens when Trump starts to turn things around, and the media will of course parrot that.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA taking credit for Trump’s wins already

Just like they're taking credit for a possible hostage release (but that seems to be on hold at the moment).
Biden has been the worst president in our lifetimes, and it isn't particularly close.
