Joe Biden on Friday morning called into “The Howard Stern Show” in an unannounced appearance on the far-left shock jock’s SiriusXM show.
Biden’s interview with Howard Stern was a total dumpster fire.
Joe Biden told Howard Stern he “got arrested standing on a porch with a black family” during the civil rights movement.
He claimed “women would send very salacious pictures” to him when he was a US Senator in the 1970s.
Joe Biden told Howard Stern he saved 6 people from drowning when he was a lifeguard back in the day.
At one point Biden said he considered jumping off a bridge after his wife Neilia and daughter Naomi were killed in a car accident in 1972.
“I used to sit there and think to myself, I think I’ll take out a bottle of Scotch,” Biden told Howard Stern.
“I actually thought about you know, you don’t have to be crazy to commit suicide. If you’ve been at the top of a mountain you think it’s never going to be there again,” he said.
“And just a brief moment, I thought maybe I just go to the Delaware Memorial Bridge and jump… but I had two kids,” he added.

In a previous version of this story, Biden told CNN’s Gloria Borger that he took out a bottle of gin after his wife and daughter died.
“I thought about it, not doing it. I thought about what it would be like just to go to the Delaware Memorial Bridge and just jump off and end it all,” Biden told Gloria Borger in 2020.
“I don’t drink at all. I’ve never had a drink in my life, but I remember taking out a fifth of, I think it was gin, and put it on the kitchen table. But I couldn’t even make myself take a drink. What saved me was really my boys,” Biden said to Gloria Borger.

Katie Hobbs (left), former Governor RINO Doug Ducey (right)
Katie Hobbs on Tuesday vetoed Senate Bill 1414 which would have increased penalties for repeat offenders of Arizona’s organized retail theft law.
The legislation would deem that “a person who is convicted of a third or subsequent violation of organized retail theft with the intent to resell or trade the stolen merchandise to be sentenced as a category two repetitive offender,” as opposed to current law, which classifies repeat offenders as a category one repetitive offender “for the second and subsequent offenses.” Category two offenders receive harsher sentences.
Hobbs wrote in a veto letter, “Today, I vetoed Senate Bill 1414. I have signed Sen. Gowan’s bill SB1411 establishing an Organized Retail Theft Task Force in the Attorney General’s office that will be critical to adequately and appropriately combat this issue. Their first report is due July 1, 2025 and I look forward to reviewing their policy recommendations and working together to find balanced policies for this matter.”
However, the bill she signed into law only establishes a task force in the Attorney General’s office. It does nothing to punish repeat offenders like SB1414.
The bill summary states:
Purpose
Requires a person who is convicted of a third or subsequent violation of organized retail theft with the intent to resell or trade the stolen merchandise to be sentenced as a category two repetitive offender.
Background
Current statute classifies a person who is convicted of multiple felony offenses that were not committed on the same occasion, but that are either consolidated for trial purposes or are not historical prior felony convictions, as a first time felony offender for the first offense and a category one repetitive offender for the second and subsequent offenses. A person who is at least 18 years of age or who has been tried as an adult must be sentenced as: 1) a category two repetitive offender if the person stands convicted of a felony and has one historical prior felony conviction; or 2) a category three repetitive offender if the person stands convicted of a felony and has two or more historical prior felony convictions (A.R.S. § 13-703).
A person commits organized retail theft if the person acting alone or in conjunction with another person: 1) removes merchandise from a retail establishment without paying the purchase price with the intent to resell or trade the merchandise for money or other value; or 2) uses an artifice, instrument, container, device or other article to facilitate the removal of merchandise from a retail establishment without paying the purchase price. Organized retail theft is a class 4 felony (A.R.S. § 13-1819).
A category two repetitive offender who is convicted of organized retail theft carries a presumptive imprisonment sentence of 4.5 years and an aggravated imprisonment sentence of 7.5 years. The fine for a felony may be up to $150,000 (A.R.S. §§ 13-703 and 13-801).
There is no anticipated fiscal impact to the state General Fund associated with this legislation.
Provisions
Requires a person who is convicted of a third or subsequent violation of organized retail theft with the intent to resell or trade the stolen merchandise to be sentenced as a category two repetitive offender.
Becomes effective on the general effective date.
This is one of the ten measures Katie Hobbs rejected on Tuesday alone. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Hobbs vetoed several common-sense bills on Tuesday, including SB2581, which would require proof of residency to vote in Arizona elections; SB1129, which would protect homeowners by allowing them to remove an unlawful occupant or a “squatter” from their property; and SB1182, which would have protected girls’ showers from biological males in public K-12 schools.
Per Axios, Hobbs vetoed a total of 143 bills last year. As of Tuesday, she has vetoed 195 bills since taking office last January, shattering Democrat Janet Napolitano’s previous record of 181 vetoes during an entire four-year term.
SICK: Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs Vetoes Bill Preventing Biological Males From Showering With Females in Public Schools, Says “I Will Not Sign Legislation That Attacks Arizonans”
Per Arizona Daily Star:
Other bills the governor rejected Tuesday include:
— SB 1340 prohibiting the investment of public funds in any state-owned or company domiciled within a “foreign adversary’’ as determined by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce under federal law. That includes China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia and Venezuelan politician Nicolas Maduro. It also would bar putting money into a bank that has a principal place of business in a foreign adversary.
— SB 1060 which would have given candidates for federal office the ability to send an observer to watch the ballot-counting process. That is now limited to those designated by political parties.
— HB 2328 would have allowed mobile food vendors to set up on private property in residential areas, something now prohibited. Rep. Kevin Payne, R-Peoria, said it included safeguards, including requiring the permission of the property owner who would have to remain at the site.

District Attorney Sandra Doorley is at the center of controversy following a traffic stop where she appeared to leverage her status as Monroe County’s DA to evade law enforcement procedures.
The incident, captured on an officer’s body-worn camera, shows Doorley dismissing the reason for the stop and insinuating her legal authority would nullify the traffic violation.
Doorley was recorded going 55 mph in a 35 mph zone on Monday evening on Phillips Road. Instead of pulling over, Doorley continued driving to her residence on Fallen Leaf Terrace, about a mile away, while an officer followed with active lights and siren.
The video, released by the Town of Webster, depicts a defiant Doorley who, at several points during the encounter, reminded the officers of her position.
Doorley argued she had been on a call with Webster Police Chief Dennis Kohlmeier to assure the police officer she was not a threat. However, the video shows her using her phone to demand Kohlmeier convince the officer to leave her be.
The encounter escalated when Doorley refused to provide her ID, instead handing the officer her phone with Kohlmeier on the line.
“Listen, I know the law better than you. Would you just leave? Would you just leave me alone?”
“I don’t really care. I don’t really care. You know what? If you give me a traffic ticket, that’s fine. I’m the one who prosecutes it.”
“I’m going to prosecute myself,” Doorley said. “Do you know what I’ll do with the ticket?” She then laughed.
Police: So why didn’t you just stop like you’re supposed to?
Doorley: Because I didn’t feel like stopping on Philip’s Road.
Police: That’s not your choice.
Doorley: Well, I made it my choice.
Police: Okay. Now you made it a bigger deal than it needed to be.
Doorley: It’s a really bigger deal when people start coming, it becomes a much bigger deal.
Police: Well, you caused that, Sandra. What do you want us to do? Not do our job because it’s you? You broke another law because of that, right? You should know better… That’s an arrestable offense, Sandra. You know this.

Doorley issued a statement committing to the rule of law and expressing her intention to accept responsibility for her actions. She claimed to have pled guilty and submitted the ticket to Webster Town Court.
“On Monday, April 22, 2024, I was driving home following a busy day at work. I admit that I was not paying attention to my speed on Phillips Road in the Town of Webster. Less than half a mile from my neighborhood, I noticed a Webster Police car behind me. Once I realized that the intention of the car was to pull me over, I called the Webster Police Chief to inform him that I was not a threat and that I would speak to the Officer at my house down the street. The Webster Police Officer followed me to my house and issued me a speeding ticket for my speed of 55mph in a 35mph zone. I acknowledged that I was speeding and I accepted the ticket. By 1:00PM the following day, I pled guilty and sent the ticket to the Webster Town Court because I believe in accepting responsibility for my actions and had no intention of using my position to receive a benefit. Nobody, including your District Attorney, is above the rule of law, even traffic laws. Anybody who knows me understands without a doubt that I have dedicated my entire 33 year career to the safety of this community. My work to ensure the safety and respect of law enforcement is well proven time and time again. I stand by my work and stand by my commitment to the public safety of Monroe County.”
Before switching to the GOP in 2015, Doorley was a member of the Democratic Party.

Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon recently vetoed an amendment to the Secretary of State’s election procedures manual that would require proof of state residency to vote.
According to Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray, “The law would also “provide uniformity and clarity concerning providing evidence of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote.”
The Secretary of State said the Governor’s veto will make it “easier for illegal aliens and non-residents to illegally vote” and called the move “deeply disturbing” in a statement.
Gray slammed the Governor in an X post, saying, “With his veto of our proposed rules, Gov. Gordon is now enabling Biden and the most radical leftists in America who are trying to help illegal immigrants vote in our elections.”
This comes as Biden’s historic open border crisis rages on and flyers instructing illegal immigrants to vote for Joe Biden in the forthcoming U.S. election have been reportedly distributed at a non-governmental organization (NGO) in Mexico, according to an investigation by The Oversight Project, a watchdog initiative linked to the Heritage Foundation.
As The Gateway Pundit recently reported, Arizona’s lawless Governor, Katie Hobbs, who was installed by a rigged election, vetoed a similar law earlier this week in a state that’s at the forefront of Biden’s open border. Hobbs vetoed the legislation, claiming it “creates additional, unnecessary barriers for individuals registering to vote.”
Lawless Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs Vetoes Bill to Require Proof of Residency for Voting
Likewise, Governor Gordon claimed this law would create “voter confusion and inadvertent disenfranchisement.”
In a letter to Gray, Gordon said, “I do not believe it is within the scope of authority delegated to the Secretary of State by law.” Gray, however, says this is untrue as “Wyoming statute not only allows for the rule, but actually calls for it.
“W.S. 22-1- 102(a)(xxvii) expressly defines the registration process as requiring ‘verification of the name and voter information of a qualified elector.’”
RNC election attorney Christina Bobb responded to Gray’s statement on X, “What the heck is the Wyoming Governor doing?!”

Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray released the following statement on the Governor’s veto on April 12:
Secretary Gray Expresses Disagreement with Governor’s Veto of Rules to Require Proof of Wyoming Residency to Vote
CHEYENNE, WY – On April 12, 2024, Governor Mark Gordon vetoed amendments to Chapter 2 of the Secretary of State’s Election Procedures that would have required acceptable identification for proof of identity, including proof of Wyoming residency, when registering to vote in Wyoming, as well as to provide uniformity and clarity concerning providing evidence of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote.
“Wyoming elections should be decided by Wyomingites, NOT illegal immigrants,” Secretary of State Chuck Gray said. “Governor Gordon’s veto makes it easier for illegal aliens and non-residents to illegally vote, which is deeply disturbing.”
“Wyoming statute not only allows for the rule, but actually calls for it. W.S. 22-1- 102(a)(xxvii) expressly defines the registration process as requiring ‘verification of the name and voter information of a qualified elector.’ The rule provided for a process to verify an individual’s attestation that they are a resident of Wyoming. And it also fulfilled the statutory requirement that no person would be allowed to register to vote if their identification contains any indication that they are not a U.S. citizen.”
“I am especially troubled by the Governor’s adoption of the radical left’s argument that Wyoming has no real cases of voter fraud to address. As I indicated during our meeting with the Governor, our office has worked with county clerks on this very issue just last year, cancelling a registration of an illegal alien in Campbell County who illegally voted in the 2020 election. Every vote by an illegal alien disenfranchises the vote of Wyoming residents. These rules were a commonsense solution to stopping voter fraud in Wyoming.”
“These rules undertook a thorough vetting process, and received overwhelming support from the people of Wyoming during the public comment period. They should have been signed. I will continue to fight for election integrity measures to protect and improve our elections.”

Feds on parade: Patriot Front members march in Charleston, West Virginia.
It must be another FBI freshman pledge weekend.
The Patriot Front “white supremacist” group went marching in Charleston, West Virginia this weekend.
They found a drummer for this weekend’s march and they were chanting something but it was hard to understand.
So these a$$holes from Patriot Front just marched through our beautiful town. While I support their 1st amendment right to PEACEFUL assembly…I also support our right to flip them off! pic.twitter.com/v1pox3xpEx

These deep state a$$holes aren’t fooling anyone.
FEDS? The Patriot Front holds itself out as a supremacist organization but most believe it to be a honeypot organized and funded by the Feds to entrap disgruntled Americans. The group (100 strong) marched through Charleston WV. Strangely there was no police presence. pic.twitter.com/zt0lKOnmsM

This sounds about right: You know they’re feds because the mainstream media has absolutely no interest in outing them.
How can you be sure they are Feds?
Because the legacy news media is not spending any effort to unmask or destroy their lives. The corporate media was told to ignore this by their handlers at the FBI.
If Patriot Front were a real organic group, the reaction would be completely… https://t.co/oLlysbxezk
