Biden forgets he’s in NYC, tells world leaders ‘Welcome to Washington’ during speech in Manhattan
NY Post | 9/25/24 | Steven Nelson

President Biden forgot that he was speaking in Midtown Manhattan Wednesday and instead welcomed world leaders to Washington — making his latest staggering gaffe after being forced to end his campaign for a second term due to Democratic concerns about his mental acuity.

“Thank you, thank you, thank you. Welcome to Washington,” Biden, 81, said at the InterContinental New York Barclay hotel …

Biden spoke ahead of Zelensky at the Wednesday gathering.

The American leader called his counterpart “Mr. President” without using his surname — after Biden stunned attendees of the annual NATO summit in July, at which Biden introduced Zelensky as “President Putin,” making that error just hours before also calling Kamala Harris “Vice President Trump.”

“Oh my, are we back?”

“Looks like we are, mostly. Well, primarily at least.”

“Thank God, I hate being in the dark like that.”

‘You don’t have to be in the dark by yourself, I’ll be there.”

“That reassures me?”

“I knew it would.”

“That was a question, not a statement.”

Pray to the Horse. Attack the Dog.

Man shot, killed during bizarre home invasion attempt in rural Missouri
kctv5.com | September 18, 2024 | Sarah Motter

DEARBORN, Mo. (KCTV) – An unknown man was shot and killed when he attempted to force his way into a rural Missouri home after he prayed to a horse and attacked a dog.

The Platte County, Missouri, Sheriff’s Office says that around 9 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 18, emergency crews were called to the 15000 block of Masonic Dr. in Dearborn with reports of a suspicious individual.

The homeowner reported a partially clothed man had arrived at their home and began to pray to a horse before he attacked their dog. When he attempted to force his way into the home, the homeowner then shot him.

I hope the homeowner made an “Indiana Jones” face when he did it.
