As tensions between Russia and Ukraine escalated with Putin's diversion of Russian troops to pro-Russia separatist regions of Ukraine, President Joe Biden delivered remarks announcing new sanctions to counteract what he called "the beginning of a Russian invasion."

These included sanctions on Russia's sovereign debt, which Biden said would effectively cut the nation off from western financing, as well as a halt in the development of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline between Russia and Germany. He also accused Putin of "a flagrant violation of international law" for declaring the pro-Russia separatist regions of Ukraine—Luhansk and Donetsk—as sovereign nations before sending Russian troops there.

Biden concluded:

"[T]here is still time to avert the worse-case scenario that will bring untold suffering to millions of people if they move as suggested. The United States and our allies and partners remain open to diplomacy, if it is serious."

Then, the President walked away from the podium.

That exit appeared to enrage Republican strategist Jake Schneider, who accused Biden of turning his back on the press and shuffling away, saying the image of Biden exiting a room was emblematic of his "failed presidency."

People were confused, to say the least, and the mockery was swift.






Social media users hadn't forgotten how many times Trump, whom Schneider supports, did the same.



How quickly they forget.

Hegseth Gets Hit With Awkward Fact-Check After Bragging About Ending 'Woke' Program

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was swiftly fact-checked after he claimed in a post on X that he'd ended the "woke" Women, Peace & Security (WPS) program because it was an initiative created by the Biden administration.

For the political right, "wokeness" or "wokeism" generally refers to a left-leaning perspective that acknowledges the widespread existence of racism, sexism, and other forms of discrimination in American society.

Trump Made A Petty Dig At Taylor Swift During The Eagles' White House Visit—Because Of Course

President Donald Trump was called out after he made a petty dig at pop star Taylor Swift during his speech for the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles' visit to the White House.

In a brief speech, Trump acknowledged the Eagles' 40–22 win over the Kansas City Chiefs was “a little surprising,” a remark that appeared to reference the Chiefs' consecutive Super Bowl victories in 2023 and 2024. He then shifted focus to Swift, getting in a petty swipe drawing attention to Swift's presence at the game to watch her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, play tight end for the losing team.
