My latest at PJ Media:
Donald Trump dubbed him “Sleepy Joe,” and once again, the America-First president was right. At the UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Glasgow on Monday, Old Joe was sitting in the audience, duly masked, listening to an ideologue drone on and on about how planetary disaster is just around the corner, and Climate Morpheus started doing his work. Biden closed his eyes, opened them again after a few seconds, struggled to keep them open, but ultimately succumbed and began dozing until an aide came over toward the end of the speech the ostensible president was ostensibly listening to and woke him up. It may have been the most humanizing and relatable moment of his entire dumpster fire presidency.
Ironically, the speech that Old Joe found so soothing and sleep-inducing was the usual climate apocalyptic that gets peddled at these conferences. The speaker was a disabled rights advocate from South Africa who claimed that “15% of the world’s population have a disability.” As the putative leader of the putative Free World dropped off into dreamland, the speaker was saying that in his home country, “I see the impact of climate change on our communities, on our economy, on our ability to grow food, and even to survive.”
Biden dozed through the speaker’s nightmare scenario of what would happen if we don’t destroy all internal combustion engines outside the People’s Republic of China, and pronto:
I see generations right now with fear in their hearts about what the future holds. On behalf of everyone, disabled and non-disabled all around the world, I call on you to commit to concrete actions to stop the destruction of this magnificent planet. This conference is one of the most important meetings in history. You have the chance to make decisions and reach agreements which will affect the lives of generations to come. You are in a position of extraordinary power. You can change forever the trajectory we are on. You can make a world that is once again full of hope, not fear. This is my message from earth to COP on behalf of we the 15, I ask you: please help us to guarantee a safer future for every life regardless of their ability.
This kind of thing should have Biden on the edge of his chair, drinking in every word, or even up on his feet cheering. After all, he said in October 2020 that “the number one issue facing humanity. And it’s the number one issue for me. Climate change is the existential threat to humanity. Unchecked, it is going to actually bake this planet. This is not hyperbole. It’s real. And we have a moral obligation.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

Ever heard of jet lag?
x says
Actually I do not see this as much of an issue. I have been to scientific conferences where I could have easily fallen asleep, jet lag or no. Old Joe falling asleep is his most endearing quality. I do not even blame him for the intended disasters he is causing.
He is just a tool for a cabal whose ultimate goal is to cause the whole world to suffer. They might consciously believe that they are doing a good thing, but subconsciously they do this only to prove that they have power, which in itself validates their existence (to themselves).
In other words, they are psychopaths.
gravenimage says
This is silly, JoJo–there were representatives from all over the world at this silly conference, many of them dealing with far more severe jet lag than Biden was. Glasgow is only four hours ahead of Washington, DC, in any case–not really enough of a time difference to need a nap.
Ecosse1314 says
Used to be a joke going the rounds in the 70s.
Airline pilot….we are now arriving at Glasgow airport. Please reset your watches to the year 1690.
Walter Sieruk says
The meaning of the phrase “Let’s go Brandon ” are fitting words that sleepy ,creepy Joe Biden.
DazzleMe says
Amen Walter

Sleepy Joe Biden Falls Asleep During Climate Conference. Wouldn’t You?
…………………….
This hyperbole has become utterly laughable at this point. But still, having the American president falling asleep is pretty embarassing. Probably just as well, though–at least he is less apt to harm Americans with insane taxes and strictures on what we can buy and use in the name of “climate change” if he is busy napping instead.
tim gallagher says
I think that it is pretty embarrassing for Biden to doze off like that. He did the same thing when meeting with the leader of Israel a couple of weeks back. I’m sure this Glasgow meeting would be pretty boring but no one else seems to be falling asleep except Biden. He is in his dotage and should not have signed up for a job, by trying to win the Presidency, that he is totally incapable of doing. Probably he should be dozing in a nursing home somewhere. He is such an embarrassment and vicious leaders like China’s Xi and Putin, and others, must be salivating at the weakness dozy old Joe Biden keeps displaying.
James Lincoln says
I guess Sleepy Joe’s handlers have to increase his dose of amphetamines…
Keys says
Asleep while visions of sugar plum ice cream danced in my head …
When there on the Conference floor there arose such a clatter
I opened my eyes to see what was the matter
To my dreamy mind a raucous crowd did appear
Shouting and hollering at me they did jeer
With angry, determined abandon
A curious chant – “Let’s go Brandon !

“In addition to the staggering cost of the [2 week] conference, I am concerned that what appears to be a bloated US delegation will prove counterproductive to the COP’s mission.” – Senator Barrasso

The blatant hypocrisy rivals that of the religion of peace !
tim gallagher says
A very clever little poem, Keys. Biden is certainly away with the fairies quite often whether he is awake or asleep and off in dreamland.
john smith says
Agreed Tim, a very clever little poem.
Keys says
Thank you Tim and John.
Walter Sieruk says
In all fairness when Joe was sleeping during that climate change conference he probably didn’t really miss anything said that was really important.
On June first of the year 2017 on television on the Smithsonian channel was a program about the ecology and the dangers posed to it that would be harmful for all living things, including humans. Likewise in Summit on the subject of climate change held in Europe by the different countries in the ecology is, very obviously, viewed as a very important topic to many people.
Therefore, all of this is somewhat reminder that once when I was watching television a scientist was interviewed and he was, most likely, sincere when he said the in forty years unless drastic changes were enacted to stop the pollution of the environment living conditions on earth will be uninhabitable for all life. So environmental issues of this plaint are extremely important. The point is that interview with that scientist on television was in the year 1967. Now it’s the year 2021 and thus more than fifty years sine he said “In forty years “there will be awful environmental disaster.
This should tell all thinking people something.
tim gallagher says
Yes, Walter, there seem to have been so many predictions of complete disaster, like that one that you mention from 1967, that I find it hard to believe most of the present predictions of disaster now from this climate change stuff.
gravenimage says
Yes–and Al Gore was inspired by the catastrophic global cooling sci movie “The Day After Tomorrow”, where the Statue of Liberty ices over in a couple of days–yet this led him to believe that the world was catastrophically warming. Pretty “inconvenient”, all right… He also seems to have missed this being an adventure movie, not science.
tim gallagher says
Yes, gravenimage, there seem to have been lots of these claims that absolute chaos is just around the corner. What is strange to me is the way you never seem to get an apology for getting it wrong from the people who make these dire predictions after their visions of doom prove to be wrong. That’s interesting what you say about Al Gore being inspired by a movie. We had a Green member of Parliament, several years ago, named Sarah Hanson-Young, who carried on about some problem with the border force out here (she would, of course, want totally open borders) and she was apparently confusing some TV program with reality and another politician said to her, “You do realise that you are talking about a TV show, don’t you?” or words to that effect. Seriously, some of these politicians are off on some other planet and seem to confuse TV shows or movies with real life. It was pretty funny back when it happened when this Green politician was made to look so foolish..
