He's raising his voice powerfully! Thunderous applause! He's doing great! 
“By the way, I’m proud to be, as I said, the first Vice President, first Black woman, to serve with a Black president,” Mr. Biden said, apparently garbling a line he often uses about both serving as vice president under Barack Obama, the first Black president, and choosing Kamala Harris as his running mate, making her the first Black woman to become vice president.
This passage describes how he was in 2019-2020
A campaign trail is a grueling exercise for anybody of any age, from the youngest network embeds to the oldest would-be presidents, and back then, there were days when Biden appeared sharper than on others. I knew it was a good day when he saw me and winked. On such occasions, he joked and prayed and cried with voters. He stayed to take a photo with every supporter. He might even entertain a question or two from the press. He had color in his face. There was no question he was alive and present. On bad days, which were unpredictable but reliably occurred during a challenging news cycle, he was less animated. He stared off. He did not make eye contact. He would trip over his words, even if they were programmed in a teleprompter. On such occasions, he was hurried out of the venue quickly and ushered into a waiting SUV.
Did they think his condition would improve?
For many inclined to support the president, this was good enough. They did not need to monitor the president’s public appearances, because under his leadership the country had returned to the kind of normal state in which members of a First World democratic society had the privilege to forget about the president for hours or days or even weeks at a time.
Brunch time is over 
He's been in cognitive decline for at least 4 years, and they convinced themselves it was just a stutter. Simply because he was the only person who could beat Bernie due to name recognition.
Kamala wasn't on the primary ballot so she's not guaranteed. Its going to be whatever horrible person the donors coalesce around.

There's talk a major donors refusing to give any more money. Will he destroy the chances of the democrats by refusing to step down?
Its like watching a visibly drunk guy getting into a car to drive home from a bar, while assuring everyone he's fine and fighting them off when they try taking his keys.
Amazing.
So his excuse is that being president is too tiring. Maybe he should let someone else do the job. (oh, right, he's handing it to Trump)
Isn't this scenario why they have superdelegates?
Oops. Oh well! no harm no foul.
crown Harris.
isn't there someone you forgot to ask?
One of my favorite game series gets enshittified.
It makes it all the more baffling, then, that Sega's upcoming Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is locking its New Game+ mode behind its Deluxe and Ultimate editions, which cost an extra $15 and $40 on top of the base game respectively. This is a series which, traditionally, has had its own features locked behind a NG+ run such as the legendary difficulty mode.
Specifically, NG+ is being folded into the 'Master Vacation Bundle' which isn't included with the game's base version. According to the game's official website the bundle also includes a bonus dungeon, special sujimon (from a Pokémon-like mode), resort guests, outfits "and more."
US millennial women saw their well-being decline, a first in modern times, per non-profit PRB.
Homicide, maternal mortality, and suicide rates have all increased for women aged 25 to 34.
The sudden reversal in progress for young women's safety comes despite an improved economic status.
Contributing factors to the overall rise included the COVID-19 pandemic, which increased domestic violence rates, and a recent leap in gun violence incidents, the report also said.
Homicide is now also the leading cause of death for pregnant and postnatal women, more so than typical maternal mortality causes, the report noted.
The problem is immunity debt to tuberculosis from the lockdowns. Remember to get infected with TB yearly so that your immune system is "topped up" and knows how to fight it! You don't want a weakened immune system from needlessly protecting yourself, or babies, from incredibly dangerous pathogens.
Health officials in Omaha, Nebraska, are wasting no time in testing over 500 infants, toddlers, and children who may have been exposed to an active tuberculosis case at a local daycare. The Douglas County Health Department (DCHD) declared a public health emergency Friday.
In a press release, DCHD said the exposures occurred at a daycare at the Westview YMCA, which provides "drop-in" care, allowing members to drop off their kids as they use the facility. The exposures occurred between May 21, 2023, and October 30, 2023.
In an interview with The Washington Post, Douglas County Health Director Lindsay Huse said officials should start getting testing results from the younger children midweek and should have a better picture of transmission and the full scope of testing needed by sometime next week. Huse estimated that there are about 250 children in the 4-and-under group and 300 in the 5-and-up group. Any children infected will further expand the number of people potentially exposed
Hint: only about 5% of children in that age group got the vaccine for it.
Another sign that things are going great!
The national rate rose to 5.6 infant deaths per 1,000 live births in 2022, up from from 5.44 per 1,000 the year before, the new report said.
The increase may seem small, but it's the first statistically significant jump in the rate since the increase between 2001 and 2002, said Danielle Ely, the CDC report's lead author. She also said researchers couldn't establish whether the 2022 rise was a one-year statistical blip - or the beginning of a more lasting trend.
The CDC said preliminary data suggests the increase is continuing, with quarterly rates in the first quarter of 2023 higher than they were at the same time in 2022.
Overall in the U.S., the death rate fell 5% in 2022 — a general decrease that's been attributed to the waning impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, especially on people 65 and older. U.S. maternal deaths also fell last year.
More than 30 states saw at least slight rises in infant mortality rates in 2022, but four had statistically significant increases - Georgia, Iowa, Missouri and Texas.
In numbers, U.S. infant deaths surpassed 20,500 in 2022 — 610 more than the year before nationwide. Georgia had 116 more infant deaths than the year before, and Texas had 251 more.
