Biden bizarrely calls Mike Johnson ‘dead on arrival’ after House speaker knocks SCOTUS overhaul

President Biden bizarrely called House Speaker Mike Johnson “dead on arrival” after the Louisiana Republican knocked him for trying to “radically overhaul” the Supreme Court in an election year.

Told by a reporter that Johnson had called his proposed overhaul “dead on arrival” in the House, Biden oddly remarked: “That’s what he is.”

“He is — dead on arrival,” said when taking shouted questions from reporters on the tarmac about Johnson’s response.

“This is incoherent and pathetic (Naturally Andrew Bates reposted it),” Johnson spokesman Taylor Haulsee posted on X, calling out the senior deputy White House press secretary who vehemently denied reports for weeks about his boss preparing to drop out of the 2024 race.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
