'I intend to do whatever it takes as long as it takes to support you.' President Joe Biden comforted Colorado residents grappling with rebuilding homes and businesses destroyed by a wind-whipped, winter fire that burned 1,100 structures.

“I can’t imagine what’s it’s like to be here in this neighborhood and see winds whipping up to 100 miles an hour and see flames approaching,” Biden said.

“He really spoke from his heart and he had some really great answers for us, of what we need to do as far as next steps,” she added. “He was very sincere and asked about our families.” Traveling with the president on Air Force One to Colorado were the state’s two senators, two members of Congress from the affected area, and FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell, whose agency is providing federal assistance. In Colorado, he met Gov. Jared Polis, Louisville Mayor Ashley Stolzmann, Boulder County Sheriff Joe Pelle and Louisville Fire Protection District Chief John Wilson, in addition to residents and first responders.

“I’m not even properly dressed because this is all I have,” the man said to the president, gesturing to his shorts. “We definitely need help,” the man’s son told Biden. “The total devastation of this event has shocked and impacted so many in the community,” the family said in a statement thanking authorities for the intensive search for Sharpe. “Our hearts go out to the many others who have suffered losses.”

Biden said Friday that the extreme events highlight that America needs to “summon the courage” to address climate change.

“Okay cancel my student debt”

Mind boggling folks can’t give it up for a minute on anything. One thousand Coloradans lost everything and the President came to their aide. Can’t we all agree this is a time to be a decent human being? I’m a CO native and I hate to see the suffering.

Translation = “I ain’t doing shit, but good luck tho, remember to vote blue in 2024!”

Yeah right

Believe it if you want. I pray for you.

Good thing that fire didn't drive a red suv through a parade of kids. Biden would have never shown up.

I bet POTUS did not recommend raking, throw out paper towels or discuss shower head water flow.

- не передергивайте, учите историю Европы (памятник не 'в ваш адрес', пока). п.с. - иной раз, сами выпрашиваете.....! сотрудничество - вам не нравится, все подличаете, вот и огребаетесь, в ответ и по полной.

They should ask him to decriminalize marijuana at the federal level and cancel student loan debt.

Thank you POTUS!

Biden slams Trump as 'defeated former president' who spread election liesPresident Biden criticized former President Trump as a 'defeated former president' who was spreading election lies, and spread doubt even before the 2020 election during his remarks to mark the anniversary of January 6. President Joe Biden is simply diverting attention of the public away from an awful first year as president and attempting to bolster the democratic vote come this November, so nothing more to see here with his speech. Stop the virus, fix the economy that’s all we care about Joe The truth is that there was a coup against President Trump and democracy was killed Biden and his party ignored the problems Inflation, epidemics, education and unemployment, they dedicate themselves to attacking Trump for fear of him.

Capitol Riot: President Biden marks one year since January 6 insurrectionPresident Joe Biden on Thursday delivered what he declared was the 'God's truth' marking the first anniversary of the U.S. Capitol insurrection, the violent attack by Donald Trump's supporters that has fundamentally changed Congress and raised global concerns about the future of American democracy. Not one person charged with “insurrection” keep pushing the lie. Policy fights are fair. Claiming election fraud and violently storming the Capitol to overturn the election is something different. If you want to win, convince Americans to vote for your ideas, but don’t try to blow up democracy cuz ur guy lost this time.
