Biden Will Take A Break From Near-Constant Vacationing To Join ‘The View’

President Joe Biden will make a rare appearance on ABC’s “The View” on Wednesday, according to an announcement made during Monday’s broadcast of the midday talk show, breaking up what has seemed to be a nearly endless string of vacations.

Regular host Whoopi Goldberg delivered the news at the start of Monday’s show, prompting laughs as she lowered her voice and declared, “I have a historic announcement.”

“This Wednesday, we are honored to have the sitting President of the United States, Joe Biden, will be live on ‘The View’ with us!” she said. “Because — let us not forget, that he is still President of the United States of America.”

The network then cut to a preview of the Biden appearance: “President Joe Biden, his four years in the White House. His impact. His legacy. His future. In a Wednesday exclusive, President Joe Biden in his first interview since the Harris-Trump debate, live on ABC’s ‘The View.'”

Biden has not been seen in his official capacity on more than a handful of occasions since he exited the 2024 presidential race in late July — while still isolating with his most recent bout with COVID. Since then, he has spent several long weekends at his beach house in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, in addition to traveling to California and New York. In between, he has stepped out occasionally to stump for Vice President Harris or to attend to official duties.

Even those few appearances have continued to raise questions about Biden’s cognitive decline, however. In one such instance, he raised eyebrows when he told a reporter that he would “do 9/11” — meaning that he planned to attend the memorials — after traveling to New York for a birthday party. Critics also came out in force after it appeared that first lady Jill Biden was actually the one at the helm during a recent Cabinet meeting.

Previously Deported Haitian Illegal Alien Arrested, Charged With Sex Crime

A previously deported Haitian illegal alien was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Massachusetts after being charged with sexual assault.

Jefferson Jerome, 30, was arrested in Dorchester on September 11 by officers with ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO).

“Jefferson Jerome stands accused of a horrific crime against a resident of our Massachusetts community,” ERO Boston Field Office Director Todd M. Lyons said. “We will not tolerate the victimization of our neighbors. ERO Boston will continue to prioritize public safety by apprehending and removing egregious noncitizen offenders from New England.”

Jerome, who was charged with sexual assault and battery, illegally entered the United States in September 2021 near Del Rio, Texas. Border Patrol then returned him to Mexico. Jerome successfully re-entered the country, however, in December 2022 and was apprehended by Customs and Border Patrol and given orders to appear before an immigration judge.

The case comes just after another Haitian national was arrested by Boston ICE after he allegedly raped a teen girl in a hotel that was being used to house migrants. Cory Alvarez, 26, was freed on a $500 bail before he was arrested by federal immigration authorities despite ICE asking for the migrant to be transferred to their custody. Alvarez was allowed into the United States under the Biden-Harris administration’s migrant parole program.

The alleged crimes from the two Haitian nationals come as the city of Springfield, Ohio, has received national attention after an influx of 15,000 to 20,000 Haitian migrants under the Biden-Harris administration. The Rust Belt city had an estimated population of 57,000 before the Haitians relocated there, with residents saying that their presence has drained social services and made driving more dangerous.

The Biden-Harris administration has presided over an unprecedented surge of illegal immigration into the United States.

Georgia nursing student Laken Riley was allegedly killed by Jose Ibarra, a 26-year-old illegal immigrant from Venezuela, on February 22, 2024, just months before 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray was allegedly murdered by two illegal immigrants who were also from Venezuela. Nungaray’s alleged killers entered the United States during the Biden-Harris administration.

One Honduran national and previously deported illegal alien was arrested earlier this month after he allegedly stabbed a 14-year-old girl in the hand with a butcher knife in Lowell, Indiana.

Immigration has since become one of the top issues of the 2024 presidential election, with former President Donald Trump pledging to carry out the “largest deportation” operation in the history of the country.

More than 10 million people have crossed the border under the Biden-Harris administration, with an estimated 1.7 million illegal immigrant gotaways recorded since Biden was inaugurated in 2021. There were a total of 415,000 reported gotaways for 2018, 2019, and 2020 during the Trump administration.
