if along with reporting this major win for President Biden and his administration for getting the prisoners home the liberal media would post pictures of the child hugging him after singing happy birthday to her. America's grandfather.

It would be plastered all over the media, but I can’t imagine him ever doing anything like that.

The sheer terror on her face when TSF is touching her says it all.

6. He's clearing the field for Harris

Remember this historic "swap" came on the heels of yesterday's plea deal for 3 of Shrub's 9/11 prisoners at Guantanamo Bay, who Obama had tried to get trials for, and kept hitting brick walls.

And I would not be surprised that the deaths of BOTH the Hamas political AND Hezbollah military leaders, also announced (as confirmations) yesterday and today, were thanks to the U.S. intelligence assistance.

Nothing about this great man is or could ever be lame. Joe has spent his life serving this amazing country.

Also in the same cell add:: ALL of the Repukes in the senate, house a s Supreme court.

All the repukes.

They all get 25 years in a dungeon jail cell. That is my fantasy.

16. POTUS Biden has created a spot where can create good works unencumbered by campaign.

POTUS Biden wants a ceasefire in Gaza and for Middle East tension to stop.

Confident POTUS Biden has other good works in progress to cap his leadership.

Hard to grasp all the problems of the World that Biden addressed under political fire.

Biden is among the most egalitarian of all Presidents.

but history will remember him. And one day the accolades he should hear now will echo at his funeral.

As Democrats, we have been honored to have great presidents such as Jimmy Carter and Joe Biden. Who have the Republicans had? It makes me proud to be a Democrat.
I think that perhaps Jimmy Carter may live long enough to see the torch passed to Kamala Harris and democracy saved, for now.
