... Biden dinged the Alabama senator again later Wednesday, during a speech in Chicago about his economic plan.
Some people “strenuously opposed” the infrastructure package when it was making its way through Congress, he said.
“There’s a guy named Tuberville, senator from Alabama, who announced that he strongly opposed the legislation. Now he’s hailing its passage,” the president said, while also reading Tuberville’s tweet aloud.
Biden paused briefly afterward to make the sign of the cross, drawing laughter and applause from the crowd.
The president went on to mock Tuberville for a third time, at another event in Chicago. This time, it was at a joint campaign fundraiser with the Democratic National Committee.
“I told him, ‘I’ll see you at the groundbreaking,’” Biden said of Tuberville, to a room of about 220 donors, according to a White House pool report....
:---P :---P Might be considered over the top if Tuberville wasn't such an asshole.
My only wish is that Tuberville were smart enough to realize that he just got owned.

Kinda feels like she's campaigning for Joe Biden?? But in like a 9th grade speech class kind of way.
All that's missing is "Webster's Dictionary defines socialism as..."
The quality of rhetoric in my 9th grade speech class was far above EmptyG's.
I am in favor of literally every program she's naming.
Dark Brandon responds to Marjorie Taylor Greene and it's fabulous. Throw the shade, clap back AND shrug off the socialist bait. Now turn MTG's recitation of what Dems have done to improve American life into a campaign ad: "Even the most extreme MAGA GOP thinks we're doing great."
... The video received the second-highest impressions on a Biden video since he was inaugurated, only behind his reelection campaign launch video that dropped in April.
The video received more than 34 million views as of Wednesday around 10:30 a.m. and more than 10 million of those were in the first three hours since it dropped. It also received more than 200,000 shares and more than 2 million engagements as of Wednesday morning.

President Biden designated a new national monument near the Grand Canyon on Tuesday. The move protects lands that are sacred to indigenous peoples and permanently bans new uranium mining claims in the area. It covers nearly 1 million acres....
The monument follows a years-long effort
In the Grand Canyon, tribal nations and conservationists have been calling for additional protections in the area for years, as KNAU's Ryan Heinsius has reported....
The new national monument will be called Baaj Nwaavjo I'tah Kukveni Grand Canyon National Monument. According to the Grand Canyon Tribal Coalition that drafted a proposal for the monument, "Baaj Nwaavjo" means "where tribes roam" in Havasupai, and "I'tah Kukveni" translates to "our ancestral footprints" in Hopi.
Biden's broader agenda
Biden has created four other national monuments during his presidency — one honors Emmett Till, and the others protect land in Nevada, Texas and Colorado.
But the politics of Biden's Western swing are broader than preservation. It is about emphasizing what the administration has already done to invest in the economy and the climate — because many Americans just don't know about it....

I sometimes get confused by the Republicans talking points, as delivered by their DisInformation Machine at Fox News…. Is this the week where President Joe Biden is too old, decrepit, and feeble to serve, or is this the week where he is The Criminal Mastermind of a Global Crime Syndicate? It’s hard to keep track, when they try to make both lies true at the exact same time.
FOX doesn't even try anymore. They know they are just talking to the MAGAs (what's left of them) so they don't have to make sense.
