Joe Biden slammed President Trump on Friday evening during a political event in South Carolina.

“We’re honored to welcome President Joe Biden to Columbia on Friday, February 27, for a reception commemorating his pivotal 2020 South Carolina primary victory and thank him for a lifetime of public service,” The South Carolina Democrat Party said.

Joe Biden was a mess when he deplaned in South Carolina.

He wandered over to a woman in a wheelchair, took her phone and froze up before an aide intervened.

Later Friday evening Joe Biden delivered remarks at an event hosted by the South Carolina Democrat Party at he Columbia Museum of Art.

Biden slammed President Trump and blamed Covid for the border crisis during his speech.

Joe Biden absurdly claimed that HE closed the border – NOT President Trump.

“The day I left office, border crossings in the United States were lower than the day that I entered that office and inherited from Trump. He’s – I won’t say it,” Biden said.

“On the day I left office, I handed Trump the strongest economy in the world! In the world! And that’s not hyperbole. That’s a fact!” Biden said even though near record inflation was crushing Americans in January 2025.

Joe Biden on Friday delivered his classic slurred speech at a Democratic Party event in South Carolina, where he started yelling jibberish about Trump’s State of the Union. 

Biden took a jab at Trump’s speech, the longest State of the Union in history, at 1 hour and 48 minutes long.

“Did you see Trump give the State of– Union yest– last night? Is he still talking?” Biden asked the crowd like a confused old man trying to make a joke to his grandchildren.

“It’s unbelievable! The guy talks for almost two hours, but never mentions the anniversary of Putin invading Ukraine. Never once,” he continued in reference to the fourth anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022– when Biden was President. 

In a way, he’s right, though. Trump could have said, “Four years ago, today, under Crooked Joe Biden, America was so weak that Russia invaded Ukraine.”

Biden and the Democrats are honestly lucky that he didn’t bring up Biden’s failure on that front, on the Afghanistan withdrawal, or in the Middle East.

But folks, it’s unbelievable! The guy talks for almost two hours, but never mentions the anniversary of Putin invading Ukraine. Never once.

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, Biden arrived in South Carolina earlier to deliver a speech at an event to commemorate his 2020 “win.”

Upon landing, Biden wandered over to a woman in a wheelchair, took her phone, and froze up before an aide intervened.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced a sweeping move to end Department of War attendance at Ivy League and elite universities that have become hotbeds of “woke indoctrination.”

On Friday, Secretary Hegseth announced that the Department of War is OFFICIALLY CUTTING TIES with the woke Ivy League “elites” who have spent decades poisoning the minds of our nation’s future military leaders.

No longer will American taxpayer dollars be used to subsidize institutions that hate the very country our soldiers swear to defend.

“For too long, the Ivy League and similar institutions have been subjecting our warriors to woke indoctrination—those days are over,” the secretary wrote on X.

For years, the radical Left has used professional military education to push a “curriculum of contempt.” Hegseth is putting an immediate stop to it.

Starting in the 2026-2027 academic year, the Department of War will cancel all attendance at institutions including Princeton, Columbia, MIT, Brown, and Yale.

That includes graduate fellowships, professional military education courses, and any Pentagon subsidies that send uniformed officers into programs that do not align with national security priorities.

Hegseth was crystal clear: The mission of the military is to FIGHT AND WIN WARS, not to master “globalist submission” or “social justice activism.”

The decision extends beyond Ivy League campuses. Hegseth has also ordered a top-to-bottom review of all military war colleges and internal Department of War education programs to ensure they refocus on strategic thought, combat readiness, and the foundational principles of the Republic.

Pete Hegseth:
“There should exist a sacred trust between America’s institutions and our warriors. It should be a trust that demands we develop our finest military leaders with the highest standards so that they are equipped to fight and win our nation’s wars with absolute lethality—from basic training to the halls of higher education.

That said, our senior service colleges have always been expected to act in the interests of this principle: to transform our senior warfighters into strategic thinkers—soldiers capable of mastering the complexities of modern warfare and leading our joint force to victory at every echelon.

Unfortunately, this sacred trust has been broken in this military’s professional military education system. It’s been poisoned from within by a class of so-called elite universities who’ve abused their privilege and access to this department and utterly betrayed their purpose.

For decades, the Ivy League and similar institutions have gorged themselves on a trust fund of American taxpayer dollars, only to become factories of anti-American resentment and military disdain.

They’ve taken our best and brightest—the men and women who pledge their lives to this nation—and subjected them to a curriculum of contempt. They’ve replaced the study of victory and pragmatic realism with the promotion of wokeness and weakness.

They’ve traded true intellectual rigor for radical dogma, sacrificing free expression for the suffocating confines of leftist ideology.

What is the purpose, you may ask, of investing in an education that teaches our warriors to despise the very nation they swore to defend? What’s the value of a degree that seeks to hollow out their warrior ethos and replace it with a creed of globalist submission?

The answer is simple: there is none.

Let’s be brutally honest about how we define our terms here. This is not education; it’s indoctrination. It’s a calculated, targeted assault on the core of our fighting force, and it is a betrayal that we will no longer tolerate.

The Department of War is finished subsidizing the corruption of our own uniformed class. We’re done paying for the privilege of having our enemies’ wicked ideologies taught to our future leaders.

We’ve had enough. We demand that senior service colleges work to sharpen our warfighters on genuine national security issues—not social justice activism.

We demand curriculums grounded in the founding principles of this Republic—principles that champion the enduring ideals of peace through strength and putting American interests first. We demand universities that invest back into our nation’s prosperity rather than our greatest adversaries.

It’s common sense. No longer will we sit back and treat these woke breeding grounds of toxic indoctrination as valid centers of so-called intellectual curiosity. We cannot and will not continue to send our most capable officers—senior officers—into graduate programs that undermine the very values they have sworn to uphold.

That’s why today, just like we did with Harvard, I’m ordering the complete and immediate cancellation of all Department of War attendance at institutions like Princeton, Columbia, MIT, Brown, Yale, and many others, starting next academic year—2026–2027.

Furthermore, we’re going to hold ourselves accountable as well. In the coming days, I will direct a formal, top-to-bottom review of our own internal war colleges, ensuring they are once again bastions of strategic thought—wholly dedicated to the singular mission of developing the most lethal and effective leaders and warfighters the world has ever known.

As a final message to our warriors: the Ivy League faculty lounges may loathe you. The so-called elite of academia may mock your patriotism and disdain your sacrifice. But never forget that we—the War Department—have your back. The American people have your back. And President Trump has your back, always.”

The announcement comes on the heels of an earlier decision to sever ties with Harvard University.

Earlier this month, the Department of War said Harvard’s programs no longer met the requirements of professional military education and would be discontinued beginning in the fall of 2026.

President Trump stopped at a Whataburger in Corpus Christi, Texas, after he delivered remarks on his energy agenda.

The president traveled to Texas to deliver remarks at the Port of Corpus Christi.

“As President Donald J. Trump travels to Corpus Christi, Texas, today, he returns to a state that is thriving under Republican leadership — powered by American energy dominance, bold tax relief, secure borders, and massive private sector investments,” the White House said in a statement.

“Under President Trump, Texas families are seeing real results in lower costs, higher wages, safer streets, and more jobs — with much more to come as the Trump Administration works tirelessly to repair the damage of the Biden era,” the White House said.

After his remarks, Trump stopped at a Whataburger restaurant.

The crowd in the restaurant went wild as President Trump walked in and ordered hamburgers for everyone.

“Burgers for the whole place!” President Trump said. “If this were a bar, I would say drinks for all, but I don’t drink!”

President Trump also trashed the Democrats and called them “crazy.”

Jimmy’s Famous Seafood co-owner John Minadakis spoke to The Gateway Pundit on Thursday following their incredible response to the liberal media’s anti-American reporting on Team USA’s Olympic victory. The restaurant went viral on social media for flat-out telling the news outlets to “go f*ck yourself.”

The restaurant has been operating in East Baltimore since 1974, when Minadakis’s father, Demetrios “Jimmy” Minadakis, came to the US from Greece and opened the family business, which is now a Baltimore staple. “My father came here from Greece when he was an immigrant in the late 60s, worked in the hospitality industry between PA and DC— dishwasher, busboy, whatever it takes, right— and saved a little bit of money up and ultimately ended up here where we’re sitting right now,” John told The Gateway Pundit.

“If I had to describe it in three words, you know, Jimmy’s seafood is the American dream.”

And when liberal media outlets attacked the country we love and our American culture, the Minadakis family didn’t hold back.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Jimmy’s Famous Seafood went viral over the past week for shutting down the leftwing media on social media after they tried to diminish the USA Men’s Hockey team’s Olympic gold medal win by suggesting that Americans should not be proud of their country.

“Go f*ck yourself,” the restaurant’s owners said on social media to far-left Huff Post, New York Times, and the Baltimore Sun.

John told The Gateway Pundit that the initial interaction on X, which has now garnered over 17 million views, far outnumbering the Huffington Post's original tweet about why celebrating the USA should "turn you off," that they've received "overwhelming positivity."

"You're seeing so many people that aren’t just proud of, not only that team, but what this country has afforded them, and it's coming out, and they're just, they're proud, man. It's beautiful. It's like Fourth of July every day this week. It really is. So, whether it's on Twitter, or Facebook, or Instagram, or via email, people are sharing amazing stories, disabled veterans that are emailing us saying how much joy the tweet brought them. The three words, you know, it's crazy. It's beautiful," John said, noting that some people are traveling hundreds or even thousands of miles just to try their restaurant. "The thing that we've been reading the most is, ‘You said what we were all thinking.’"

"No matter if you were in a bar, if you were on your couch, you probably had tears in your eyes, you had goosebumps, you were hugging whoever you were next to, you weren't checking voter cards, you know? It was unifying. And then here comes Huffington Post, saying, ‘Oh, you know, you shouldn't really be cheering for the guys.’ It's, you know, the first thing I thought, I typed, and I guess it was the tweet heard around the world," John said of his thinking behind the post.

"I just don't think it's a, yeah, patriotism isn't political. That's the truth. I strongly disagree with anybody trying to make this monumental win for our country political," John added.

He further responded to Keith Olbermann, who, as The Gateway Pundit reported, made an unhinged X post, calling the Men's hockey team "stupid, self-absorbed and misogynistic" for accepting President Trump's invite to the White House.

"I'll be honest, I don't think either side of the political fence claims Keith Olbermann anymore. I think he's that far gone," John said. "Once again, I just think he's trying to interject politics into it, trying to get his name out there. He's trying to remain relevant when he hasn't been for a long time. And, you know, I just couldn't imagine telling somebody who has dedicated their entire life to a sport and being the 1% of the 1% and achieving their goals."

"When you're eight years old, playing rollerskate hockey with your buddies, you dream of that moment, to meet the president, right? And then you're gonna have Keith Olbermann tell you that you shouldn't go? I think that's a little ridiculous."

The social media reaction has been such a hit that Jimmy's is even selling t-shirts featuring the new slogan, with proceeds supporting the Folds of Honor nonprofit, which supports the families of fallen or disabled troops and first responders. Merchandise and food from the restaurant are available to ship at Jimmysfamousseafood.com (the crab cakes are amazing!).

As John explained, his family restaurant frequently shares the wealth, helping local businesses stay afloat during COVID, through their Famous Fund, and donating to organizations like the Wounded Warrior Project, which they already donated $10,000 to after their USA Olympic gold medal t-shirt completely sold out in just three days. "Because of the American dream and everybody blessing our family and this country blessing our family, you know, we're in a position to give back, and I think it is our duty and our responsibility," John said.

This author also had the opportunity to try their crab cakes, crab eggrolls, calamari, shrimp, sushi, steak, and various other appetizers, and this is truly one of the best restaurants in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area.
