Q: work requirements, some Dems say will lead to go hungry Biden: It’s a ridiculous assertion
Reporter: Some of your Democratic colleagues are saying that this policy will lead some people to go hungry. What is your response to that?

Biden: It’s a ridiculous acer- — assertion.
Reporter: Do you wish you had started these negotiations sooner?
Biden: No, it wouldn’t have made any difference.

Biden: we’ve got good news. We’ve got a — I just spoke with Speaker McCarthy, and we’ve reached a bipartisan budget agreement … And the agreement also represents a compromise, which means no one got everything they want. But that’s the responsibility of governing.

Biden Snaps at Reporter Asking Why Compromised Debt Ceiling: “I Didn’t. I Made a Compromise on the Budget”
On 5/28/2023, during press conference, a reporter asked Biden, “Mr. President, you said at the beginning that the debt ceiling was not negotiable. Isn’t that what you’ve just done here? And isn’t that what you’ve?”

Biden: You guys — look, we’re not negotiating the debt ceiling. Here’s the deal: They passed — they said they’re going to — if they pass the debt ceiling, and they said they’d only do it on a condition that it have all these cuts in it. I said, “I’m not going to do that. You pass the debt ceiling, period. I’ll negotiate with you on the cuts — what you say what’s going to happen, what the budget is going to look like.”

That’s what we are negotiating in order to get to them deciding that they’re going to go along with a new debt ceiling, meaning that it’s not attached. Something totally different attached that wasn’t attached before. But if you want to try to make it look like I made some compromise on the debt ceiling, I didn’t. I made a compromise on the budget.

Reporter: But that’s what they wanted, is you to make a compromise on the budget, and that’s what you’ve done, even though you haven’t gone as far as they wanted. Isn’t that right?

Biden: Sure. Yeah. Well — (laughs) — can you think of an alternative?

Q: get rid of the debt limit? A: exploring the 14th Amendment
Reporter: Mr. President, do you think it’s time for the U.S. to get rid of the debt limit? That this is — you know, for that — the reason you just laid out?

Biden: No, I think it would cause more controversy getting rid of the debt limit, although I do — I am exploring the idea that we would at a later date, a year or two from now, decide whether or not the 14th Amendment — how that actually would impact on whether or not you need to reduce the debt limit every year. But that’s another day.

On 5/29/2023, Joe Biden participated in a ceremony at Arlington Cemetery in Virginia. A confused Joe Biden, mouth agape, yawned and didn’t know how to salute as he shuffled around at the Memorial Day ceremony.

Biden angry speech at Memorial Day. “we’re all created equal! But we haven’t always lived up to it!”
Joe Biden delivered an angry speech at the 155th National Memorial Day Observance at Memorial Amphitheater. Biden said, “We’re the only nation in the world built on an idea. Every other nation is formed based on things like geography, ethnicity, religion. We’re the only nation in the world built on an idea that we’re all created equal. We haven’t always lived up to it, but we’ve never walked away from it. And today, standing together to honor those Americans who dared all and gave all for our nation, we can say clearly: We never will.”
