Republican candidate for Ohio’s U.S. Senate seat Josh Mandel questioned President Joe Biden‘s mental capacity following Thursday’s press conference.

Mandel appeared on Newsmax TV’s “American Agenda” and told host Bob Sellers that Biden “isn’t all there.”

“First of all, it’s obvious, he’s not all there,” Mandel said. “I think he’s losing it.”

[BIden] has no idea what’s going on down there. He’s got no control of it and he’s afraid of the conservative press,

“Second of all, I believe that he’s intentionally allowing the border to be flooded,” Mandel continued. “When I see what’s going on down there, it reminds me of the Obama administration when they had caravans. That doesn’t happen spontaneously. People don’t show up on the border down there with Biden t-shirts by accident.”

Mandel, who served as the former treasurer of Ohio, said everything that Biden is doing is orchestrated by “big money and big folks on the left.”

Mandel went on to say that Biden showed a complete lack of transparency at Thursday’s press conference.

“He has no idea what’s going on down there. He’s got no control of it and he’s afraid of the conservative press,” Mandel said.

Newly released photos suggest that Biden had a pre-approved list of journalists to call on during his press briefing. Biden was seen consulting a list that appeared to show pictures of journalists who were in attendance. Some of the reporters were circled, some were not.

”He won’t take questions from Newsmax. He won’t take questions from the conservative press. And he looks afraid. He looks weak. He looks like the opposite of President Trump,” Mandel said.

He went on to say that Biden’s border policies are “outrageous.”

“The Trump ‘America first’ agenda puts Americans first. The Biden doctrine, or maybe we should call it the Kamala Harris doctrine because she’s probably running the country right now, puts foreigners first,” Mandel said.

“The whole thing is just outrageous. He has no control over the situation.”

“He’s the Commander-in-chief but does not have command over the situation, does not have control over the situation and he’s so afraid of sunlight and transparency that he’s making America look like fools,” Mandel said.

Historic House Vote Expels Rep. George Santos Amidst Scandal

In a turn of events, the House of Representatives made history on Friday with a vote to expel Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.), marking the first such expulsion in over two decades. A moment fraught with gravity unfolded as Speaker Mike Johnson wielded his gavel to formalize Santos’ removal, setting a precedent in congressional annals.

Santos, indicted on 23 counts related to wire fraud, identity theft, and other charges, has not faced conviction but stands accused of misusing campaign funds for opulent purchases. The bipartisan vote, tallying 311 to 114, signaled robust support for expulsion, with a marginally higher number of Republicans opting to retain Santos.

Questions loomed as Speaker Johnson left the chamber, his silence leaving the fate of the ongoing government spending battle uncertain. According to reports from Fox News, Democratic Rep. Steny Hoyer emphasized the non-partisan nature of the decision, asserting that members concluded Santos had tarnished the House’s reputation and was unfit for representation.

Within the GOP, conflicting opinions emerged, with Rep. Darrell Issa arguing against expulsion, citing the presumption of innocence. The tight-lipped stance of the House Ethics Committee played a pivotal role in the deliberations.

Conversely, members of the New York Republican delegation, led by Rep. Marc Molinaro, asserted Santos’ commission of crimes, justifying expulsion based on a comprehensive investigation.

Santos himself predicted the outcome in an exclusive morning interview on “FOX & Friends.” This vote not only underlines the House’s rare use of expulsion powers but also sets a critical precedent in handling members facing severe legal challenges.
