President Biden made headlines once more this week, this time for a confusing misstatement during a press conference, which has fueled ongoing questions about his mental agility and fitness for leadership. While standing alongside Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida in the White House Rose Garden, Biden perplexingly told attendees to 'Elect me, I'm in the 20th century', a remark that instantaneously spread across social media platforms, with critics highlighting it as further evidence that he may not be up to the task for another term. Combative exchanges are not uncommon during such conferences. However, when numerous reporters simultaneously posed questions for the president, Biden expressed his confusion by remarking, 'Why doesn't everybody holler at once?' before attempting to address several inquiries thrown at him. Among the journalists present was NBC News correspondent Peter Alexander, who sought the president's views regarding a recent abortion ruling by the Arizona Supreme Court. This ruling upheld a more than century-old law, dating back to 1864, that outlaws abortion from the instant of conception. The law allows only a single exception, that is if the abortion is required to save the mother's life. Notably, President Biden's response was both bewildering and somewhat dismissive: 'Elect me,' he said, followed by, 'I'm in the 20, 20th century'. Critics, and even some supporters, were left scratching their heads at the president's disjointed response. Realizing his mistake almost immediately, Biden quickly corrected his century reference, saying he meant the 21st century and not the 20th. However, his added remark, 'They weren't even a state', only further illustrated his disjointed thought process. These instances have been giving credence to the skepticism among voters about Biden's mental competence to continue the job of presidency. It is of note that Biden would reach the ripe age of 86 by the end of a presumptive second term in 2029; a fact not lost on many concerned observers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida addresses Congress. The head of U.S. foreign aid warns of "draconian cuts." And the House stumbled as it tried to move a FISA reauthorization. Megan Mineiro has your CQ Morning Briefing for Thursday, April 11.

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is expected to provide a new centerpiece of sorts for the administration's Indo-Pacific strategy during his visit to the U.S. today, with a main goal of countering the footprint of China in the region. DC-based China correspondent Phelim Kine walks Playbook co-author Ryan Lizza through the nuances. All that, and everything else you need to know today.

President Joe Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida met at the White House Wednesday and announced a major upgrade to the U.S.–Japan alliance. The upgrade covers greater defense and intelligence cooperation and aims to send a message to communist China. President Biden told Spanish-language TV station Univision that he plans to use executive powers to tackle the illegal immigration crisis. This came as a new Rasmussen poll found that 64 percent of likely U.S. voters said the situation at the southern border can be called an “invasion.” The House voted against a rule to allow debate on a bill to reauthorize FISA. The controversial law allows U.S. intelligence to spy on foreign nationals, but also to sweep up communications of U.S. citizens. In a post on Truth Social, former President Donald Trump asked House Republicans to “kill FISA.” President Trump's lawyers filed another appeal in the hush money case in New York. They challenged the judge's order denying President Trump from arguing he has presidential immunity. Meanwhile, former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg was sentenced to a five-month jail term as part of a plea agreement. ⭕️Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV
