Joe Biden

MSNBC host Rachel Maddow began her Monday show addressing the crowd size in Washington, D.C., for the protest against arrests for the Jan. 6 attack.

"Where is everybody?" she asked, laughing at the small crowd.

On CNN Monday, Mona Charen, a writer for the conservative National Review, highlighted the urgency for Democrats to secure a win for President Joe Biden in the infrastructure negotiations, as they also seek to avoid losing control of Congress in the upcoming midterm elections.

"One of the things that a lot of Democratic strategists think that they have to their benefit is Donald Trump," said anchor Jake Tapper. "Donald Trump is still out there chasing out of the party, or out of a job, Congressman Gonzalez of Ohio, for example. A Republican whose only sin was that he doesn't want to lie about the election. The Wall Street Journal had a very powerful editorial in favor of Gonzalez and pointing out the more that Trump does this, the harder it is for the Republican Party to win elections."

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) explained on Monday why she supports articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden.

In a floor speech, Greene said that she was prompted to file articles of impeachment because of "his disgraceful actions having to do with Afghanistan."

Fox News presented a segment on Monday which criticized President Joe Biden for exercising by riding a bicycle.

After Biden was seen riding a bicycle in Delaware over the weekend, Fox News host Harris Faulkner asked Rachel Campos-Duffy to comment on the president's health.

Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin voted Republican in nine presidential elections in a row, starting with Ronald Reagan in 1980 and ending with Mitt Romney in 2012. But the conservative columnist was so repulsed by Donald Trump's misogyny that she voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and Joe Biden in 2020, and the fact that Trump turned off so many female voters is the focus of Rubin's new book, "Resistance: How Women Saved Democracy from Donald Trump," due out this Tuesday, September 21.

Rubin, in fact, believes that Trumpism has been so toxic for the Republican Party that she no longer describes herself as "conservative" — a word she believes Trumpistas have tainted and sullied. The Post columnist, born in the early 1960s, was never a far-right culture warrior, but she was a Republican along the lines of former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge, former New Jersey Gov. Christie Todd Whitman and the late Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania.

The United States will lift an 18-month-old travel ban on the European Union and Britain, allowing vaccinated travelers to enter beginning in November, reports said Monday.

The easing of travel restrictions, imposed by Donald Trump as the Covid-19 pandemic first erupted, would mark a significant shift by President Joe Biden at a time of strained relations with European allies.

On Monday, writing for MSNBC, former George W. Bush White House Counsel Richard Painter called on the Justice Department to appoint a new special counsel to look into the misconduct of former President Donald Trump.

Trump and his allies, wrote Painter, need to face accountability for a broad range of allegations, including trying to sabotage the USPS to undermine the election and trying to weaponize the Justice Department to stage a coup. And there is already a roadmap to doing so, wrote Painter — laid out by none other than current President Joe Biden when he was a U.S. senator 30 years ago.

A former Mitch McConnell adviser mocked Donald Trump on Monday for his effort to "depose" the Senate GOP leader.

On Sunday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump is working behind the scenes to recruit a Republican senator to challenge McConnell for his leadership position.

Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Mike Lee (R-UT) personally examined Donald Trump's claims of election fraud but found the evidence lacking.

A new book from Washington Post journalists Bob Woodward and Robert Costa reveals the two senators, both of whom ultimately voted to certify Joe Biden's election win, gave serious consideration to the fraud claims and even called state officials to discuss the results, but Graham privately dismissed Trump's arguments as more suitable for "third grade."

President Joe Biden is dealing with a humanitarian crisis in Haiti, rescuing the final U.S. citizens in Afghanistan, an increasing COVID-19 crisis in red-states refusing to wear masks or promote vaccines, pushing an infrastructure package, hospitals being forced to ration care, a budget showdown with Republicans, the GOP refusing a raise in the debt ceiling and a slew of other crises across the world. CNBC reported Sunday that Elon Musk is miffed Biden didn't shower him with praise over the all-civilian SpaceX mission.

One of Musk's Twitter followers wrote, "The President of the United States has refused to even acknowledge the 4 newest American astronauts who helped raise hundreds of millions of dollars for St. Jude. What's your theory on why that is?"
