Biden warned that if the ultra-wealthy begin to control media and\u2064 economic resources, \u2064it undermines the\u200b ability of individuals to advocate for themselves.\u200b <\/p>\n<p>the article critiques\u200c prominent Democratic figures, suggesting that they themselves are part\u200c of an oligarchic structure, pointing to incidents where Democratic party elites sidelined voter choices, as seen \u200bwhen Biden was replaced by Vice President Kamala Harris as the party&#8217;s candidate.Additionally, it highlights Biden&#8217;s \u200bawarding of the\u200c Presidential Medal \u200dof\u2062 Freedom to\u200d figures like Hillary Clinton and \u200dbillionaire George Soros, whose financial influence on various causes has\u200d drawn criticism.\u200c <\/p>\n<p>Biden&#8217;s \u2064remarks on\u2063 accountability in journalism are also scrutinized,with \u200bthe assertion that \u2063media \u2063outlets have frequently lied \u2063in support of Democratic \u200cnarratives. Recent legal troubles faced by\u200c journalists are framed as a result of misinformation rather than truthful reporting. The article concludes that while Biden expresses concern over media integrity, the reality suggests a consistent \u2064pattern of\u200b biased reporting favorable to his administration and the democratic Party.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>President Joe Biden sat down with MSNBC propagandist Lawrence O&rsquo;Donnell for an Oval Office exit interview, where he persistently lied about major initiatives of his presidency and the state of politics during his term.<\/p>\n<p>Along the way, Biden was aided by the <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/17\/msnbc-hack-gives-biden-tongue-bath-in-final-presidential-interview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dangerously uncurious bootlicking<\/a> of O&rsquo;Donnell who never once pushed back on anything Biden said, and at times praised him and made emotional appeals to his decades of failed public service.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>&lsquo;An Oligarchy Is Taking Shape&rsquo;<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?app=desktop&amp;v=uEBmJ-aAmBo&amp;ab_channel=MSNBC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">interview<\/a>, O&rsquo;Donnell referenced a portion of Biden&rsquo;s farewell address where he warned of an &ldquo;oligarchy&rdquo; taking shape. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;You issued the warning about the power of the tech-industrial complex, an echo of President Eisenhower in this very room in his farewell address, warning about the military-industrial complex,&rdquo; O&rsquo;Donnell said. &ldquo;And you said that an oligarchy is taking shape that threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead.

He helped the Democrats censor information about the coronavirus and the vaccine, as well as questions about the legitimacy of the 2020 election. Zuckerberg actually spent hundreds of millions of dollars to change election rules in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>While it is unclear exactly who Biden was referencing with his &ldquo;oligarchs&rdquo; comment, it is easy to assume it is Elon Musk, the person who bought Twitter in order to make it an open platform for sharing information without censorship, specifically because Democrat oligarchs exercised so much control over the American people.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Journalists Are Getting in Trouble for &lsquo;Telling the Truth&rsquo;<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>No, they&rsquo;re not. Journalists are getting in trouble for lying on behalf of Biden and the Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>In the interview, Biden expressed concern that journalists at far-left outlets are feeling uneasy about the number of their colleagues who are caught in legal trouble for blatantly lying to the American people and believing they should not have to suffer the consequences.<\/p>\n<p>He said journalists he knows are &ldquo;worried about whether or not they&rsquo;re going to be held accountable for telling the truth.&rdquo; Biden asked, &ldquo;When the hell has that ever happened in America?

We&rsquo;ve invested more in red states than blue states,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;For two reasons. One: Red states really screwed up in terms of the way they handled their economy, the way they handle manufacturing, and the way they handle access to supply chains.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Telling a story that sounds like one he is infamous for inventing, Biden added, &ldquo;You know, I remember being out in Iowa, and I remember one of the big issues was that there was a plant, a small plant of 300 people, been around for 70 years: &lsquo;My grandfather worked there, I worked there, my son works there.&rsquo; And then &mdash; and they had the best education system at the time, and maybe the best <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sheri-few-failed-federal-intervention-in-american-education\/\" title=\"Sheri Few: Failed Federal Intervention in American Education\">state education system<\/a> in the country &mdash; and all of a sudden the kid comes home after he graduates and says, &lsquo;Mom, I gotta leave. There&rsquo;s no job for me here. The factory shut down.&rsquo; Well, guess what? How do you run a country that way? How do you do that?&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>However, 16 out of 20 states <a href=\"https:\/\/gop.com\/research\/red-states-are-outperforming-blue-states\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">leading<\/a> job recovery since the coronavirus pandemic had Republican governors, and 16 also had Republican-majority legislatures. At the same time, 8 out of 10 states with the worst job recovery were run by Democrats. States run by Republicans saw an average of 143 percent job recovery, compared to Democrats&rsquo; 118 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Biden defended his record on handling inflation, including his coronavirus spending that he was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/former-clinton-treasury-secretary-biden-administration-not-grasping-concern-of-inflation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">warned<\/a> would lead to more inflation. He refused to blame the rampant government spending that defined his presidency, even as inflation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/markets\/us\/us-consumer-prices-rise-slightly-above-expectations-december-2025-01-15\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rose<\/a> to its highest point since July in December.
