Joe Biden’s Withdrawal Sparks Dead Speculations

Joe Biden’s announcement of his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race has sparked conspiracy theories suggesting he might be dead. After endorsing Kamala Harris as the new nominee on July 21 via a letter on social media platform ‘X,’ Biden’s lack of public appearances or proof of life has raised suspicions. The White House’s statement that Biden has no upcoming meetings and the absence of recent photos have fueled these theories. Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert has demanded proof of life, questioning the authenticity of Biden’s letter and signature. While these speculations abound, there has been no official confirmation regarding Biden’s health or his status as President.

P Chidambaram also praised the Angel Tax removal but accused the government of copying Congress manifesto ideas. Andhra Pradesh CM N Chandrababu Naidu, in contrast, lauded the Budget for addressing state needs and supporting key projects. Rahul Gandhi labeled it the “Kursi Bachao” Budget, alleging it serves the BJP’s allies while neglecting ordinary citizens.
