In a concerning turn of events, Joe Biden has revealed his intention to overhaul the Supreme Court and strip former President Donald Trump of immunity. House Speaker Mike Johnson promptly dismissed Biden’s plan as “dead on arrival”. In an unsettling response, Biden shot back at Johnson, declaring that it was in fact Johnson who was “dead on arrival.”
Johnson said, “This proposal is the logical conclusion to the Biden-Harris Administration and Congressional Democrats’ ongoing efforts to delegitimize the Supreme Court. Their calls to expand and pack the Court will soon resume. It is telling that Democrats want to change the system that has guided our nation since its founding simply because they disagree with some of the Court’s recent decisions. This dangerous gambit of the Biden-Harris Administration is dead on arrival in the House.”
This tit-for-tat exchange has raised eyebrows among conservatives, with many interpreting Biden’s retort as a thinly veiled threat against Speaker Johnson. This is not the first time accusations of such nature have been made against Biden; he previously came under fire for allegedly threatening President Trump just days before an assassination attempt on him.
“Speaker Johnson said it’s dead on arrival,” a reporter said to Biden.
Biden replied, “That’s what he is.”
The reporter asked for clarification: “That he is?”
Biden hit Johnson with a threat: “He is. Dead on arrival.”
Later, attempting damage control, Biden claimed his statement meant that Johnson’s “thinking” was “dead on arrival.” However, this flimsy explanation did little to quell the concerns of conservatives, who continue to question the intent behind Biden’s ominous words.
