Interestingly, Biden&#8217;s first significant event after leaving office was in Chicago on Tuesday, where he spoke at the ACRD gathering to advocate for strengthening Social Security. This raises a question: Is Kamala Harris now scheduling his appearances? <\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for Biden mentioned that he has been active publicly lately, including recent speeches to groups like the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and at a National High School Model United Nations conference. However, this marked his first major speech since leaving office. During his address, Biden emphasized that most Americans\u2014wealthy ones included\u2014support Social Security and believe it should be safeguarded for the nation&#8217;s benefit. He also criticized Donald Trump\u2019s perspective on Social Security as being akin to a &#8220;tech startup&#8221; mentality.<\/p>\n<p>Biden questioned why there seems to be an attack on Social Security now and suggested that those behind it are following a reckless approach of &#8220;move fast and break things,&#8221; leading to unnecessary suffering.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast to friendly media narratives surrounding him recently, social media highlighted some controversial remarks from Biden about race during his youth. He referred back to when Black individuals were termed &#8220;colored kids,&#8221; which sparked criticism despite being contextualized as historical terminology.<\/p>\n<p>Biden also took aim at Republicans during his speech by questioning their decency and echoing sentiments reminiscent of Hillary Clinton&#8217;s infamous \u201cbasket of deplorables\u201d comment regarding divided political sentiments in America today.<\/p>\n<p>While some Democrats wish Biden would remain out of public view post-presidency due to concerns over electoral implications from past actions or statements he&#8217;s made\u2014including accusations against innocent individuals\u2014others seem pleased with his return. The White House press secretary noted her surprise at how late into the evening he was speaking but reiterated Trump&#8217;s commitment to protecting Social Security benefits.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, there appears little justification behind Biden&#8217;s claims about threats facing Social Security under Trump\u2019s administration; only those not entitled or deceased are losing benefits currently. Observers might question how seriously they should take someone who struggled through this initial post-presidential appearance while previously asserting readiness for another term in office<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2424120,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Biden-Disability.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[3620,53551,32171,53550],"class_list":["post-2424119","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-biden","tag-disability-event","tag-political-commentary","tag-post-potus"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Biden-Disability.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2424119","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2424119"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2424119\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2424123,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2424119\/revisions\/2424123"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2424120"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2424119"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2424119"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2424119"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
