Okay... So I tested something...
I went to #PresBiden's Threads account. His posts show up normal, like other Mastodon toots. I can "Like" them the same as any toots. Ditto for the account in his feed, "The White House."
So it seems like Obama's Threads account is simply reposting his Instagram posts.
"Special counsel David Weiss charged a former FBI informant with lying about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden’s involvement in business dealings with Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings, undercutting a major aspect of Republicans’ impeachment inquiry into the president."

I doubted that #TimesSienaPoll the moment I saw it showing Trump also beating #KamalaHarris in a two-way match (outlier results which have not been the case in ANY other polls), and RFK getting "33%" of the vote (while getting 0% of the news coverage for months now; and as soon as people hear his actual views, his support evaporates).
That was a paid hit job and a schoolgirl popularity contest, not a valid #Election poll.
Ever since RFK began his 3rd-party bid, I've said #Democrats are wrong to worry about him as a challenge to Biden's support. His sole appeal is to the bigoted #AntiVaxxer crowd-- and that is almost invariably ONLY #Republicans. RFK was never a Democrat.
And the fact that this Trump-bought, GOP-based hit job reflects strong Kennedy support only cements that theory for me.

#PresBiden is an old-school ethical politician who only plays centerfield. He moves (politically) at the speed of molasses, and he won't even allow the appearance of impropriety by pardoning his own son.
He needs someone like #KamalaHarris and other advisers to talk him into anything even remotely out of left field.
More urgently, he has long needed to stand up and speak out about the ethical violations in the #SCOTUS, and even add some judges to the Court. The need for the latter was evident when the leaker warned us about the huge #abortion ruling. But even since then, Biden has refused to budge and add judges.
Yes, he SHOULD force the issue about a Pres pardoning themself, etc, but I don't see him even mentioning it.

This morning, #MitchMcConnell was on TV, saying that Pres. #Biden called him, wishing him well. But that SOB admitted he made a cruel, insulting joke to the Pres. about "pulling a sandbag" (referencing Biden’s episode where he understandably tripped over an unexpected sandbag on a stage, and none of it due to age or illness).
The two incidents have almost nothing in common-- Biden's was a normal mistake, that any age could make; #PresBiden merely tripped. McConnell's moment was one related to chronic issues with age and illness, and he lost cognitive function.
What kind of SOB responds to a sincere well-wish from a political opponent, with insults and jabs, then brags about it to the media? The "joke" also fell flat with the reporters nearby, that's for sure.

Listening to legal speculation as to why #Hunter Biden's prosecution deal fell through today in court: because GOP are promising to prosecute him to the ends of time (and impeach his father Pres. Biden on his back). They've been at it for YEARS now.
Which led me to this thought:
I think it's nonsense, but every lawyer on TV says Trump will pardon himself if reelected. NONE say he can't.
So can #PresBiden pardon himself and Hunter?
I think he should to force the issue before #2024.
“Democrats said that Mr. Comer and other Republicans have shown they are willing to go to any lengths to smear the Bidens, even to the point of accepting the word of a man accused of being a Chinese agent and illegal arms dealer over that of federal law enforcement officials.”
Gal Luft, promoted by House Republicans as possessing evidence of corruption by the Biden family, was charged by federal prosecutors with lobbying and sanctions violations and with brokering arms deals with China and Iran.
@georgetakei After all Pres. Biden has done for America, when most of us would have been living the retiree's life, I'll vote for him if he has a heartbeat!
