What better way for President Joe Biden to send the signal that his hands are clean than to take in a dinner and movie while his highly politicized Justice Department drops another indictment on former President Donald Trump?
The president, who is on a ten-day vacation at his $2 million Rehoboth Beach, Delaware home, was watching “Oppenheimer” with first lady Jill Biden when special counsel Jack Smith indicted Trump for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election, according to CNN, after the first couple had dinner at Matt’s Fish Camp in neighboring Lewes.

And if that wasn’t enough to create distance, the Biden White House claimed they never saw it coming, with CNN reporting that an official said they learned about the former president’s indictment through media reports — this being the old Obama dodge.
“We’d refer you to the Justice Department, which conducts its criminal investigations independently,” White House spokesman Ian Sams said, presumably with a straight face.
While the leading Republican presidential candidate was being targeted again by Attorney General Merrick Garland’s weaponized DOJ, the Bidens reportedly concluded their dinner and a movie date night with a romantic walk on the beach to see the supermoon.
The tweet below translates: “As Trump fumes about his third indictment, Joe Biden and his wife Jill eat at Matt’s Fish Camp in Lewes, the neighboring town of their vacation home in Rehoboth, Delaware. The two arrived just in time for Happy Hour.”

And then off to the movies for the first couple, as if they had not a care in the world.

Nero may have fiddled while Rome burned, but Joe Biden took in a movie about the top-secret Manhattan Project while his administration nuked the concept of equal justice in the eyes of the law — not only did Lady Justice remove her blindfold completely under this president, she is now using it to strangle his political opposition.
Interestingly, conservative influencer Greg Price shared a remarkably strange occurrence about the DOJ — every time there’s a major development involving alleged Biden family corruption, the agency drops the hammer on Trump the very next day:
June 7: FBI releases documents to Congress alleging the Bidens took a $10M bribe from Burisma.
June 8: Jack Smith indicts Trump in Mar-a-Lago docs case.July 26: Hunter Biden goes to court and rejects sweetheart plea deal after it was revealed DOJ tried to give him blanket…
