The “Briefing Room” section of the White House’s website is invaluable material for anyone who follows our 46th president, be it closely or casually.
Not because there are any words of wisdom to be found in there, mind you. It’s mostly statements from and transcripts of top administration officials and mouthpieces: President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. And if you’re searching that corner of the web for some sagacity, it’ll take a while.
Rather, it provides the official (if perhaps not correct) answers to America’s favorite new game show: “What the Heck is Uncle Joe Saying?”
Now, granted, Joe Biden has been making gaffes for quite some time now. (Here at The Western Journal, we’ve been chronicling them since the beginning of his campaign — and noted that his downward mental spiral made him unfit to be president. We’ll keep on bringing America that truth, and you can help us by subscribing.)
Lately, however, those gaffes have becoming a bit less coherent. We’ve moved far beyond “lying, dog-faced pony soldier” (still my personal favorite, BTW) and into a frightening terra nova where the putative leader of the free world oft sounds like Bob Dylan coming to after anesthesia.
For instance, take Monday’s edition of “What the Heck is Uncle Joe Saying?”
Here’s the setup: Biden and Harris were in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building receiving a briefing on the James Webb Space Telescope, the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope. If the name doesn’t ring a bell, perhaps you’ve seen the pictures:

As the presentation was wrapping up, NASA administrator Bill Nelson noted the import of the telescope — and the international effort that went into producing it.
“There’s another thing that you’re going to find with this telescope: It is going to be so precise, you’re going to see whether or not planets, because of the chemical composition that we can determine with this telescope of their atmosphere, if those planets are habitable,” he said.
