Joe Biden gives address

Silly old man thinks we don't know it's 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW 🙄

(Yes, I know that the word doesn't mean that in this context)

This is a rare exception to rule 6. Yes it's a video, but it does qualify as news.

Why would he need to do so? We all know he lives at The White House.

I know he could give two shits about my opinion, but this is the proudest I've been of a government official in a long time. I know that decision wasn't easy and probably took a big blow to his ego, but he is truly trying to put the country first with this move. Thank you, sir. You might save this country from the Orange Buffon and Inc.

Supreme Court Reform!!!

"Going to call for Supreme Court reform"

Great! Just... Please don't be another PCSCOTUS.

As a swan song after the election, Biden should issue and executive order arresting all of the conservative judges on the Supreme Court and jail them using the powers they have granted the executive branch. Literally show them the error of their ways. Then (maybe) issue another executive order releasing them. After 30 days or so of allowing them to mull over their decision.
