Democratic senator on Bidens farewell plea: Now he tells us 

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) said statements in President Biden’s farewell speech came much too late in a Thursday statement, raising question with the commander-in-chief's parting remarks. 

“Now he tells us. Biden speaks out against dark money, for climate action, and for SCOTUS term limits. I pressed four years for this speech,” Whitehouse posted on the social media platform X.

    “That was a great speech. Had that speech launched the reelection campaign, we’d have won. Had that speech launched his presidency, we’d have saved America. Now we fight on,” he wrote in a subsequent post. 

    Whitehouse’s comments criticizing Biden emphasize party sentiments after Democrats not only lost the White House but also the majority in the Senate, delivering the GOP a trifecta.  Some have criticized President Biden for not suspending his presidential campaign early enough, which resulted in a stunted bid for the presidency by Vice President Harris. 

    Throughout his time in office, Biden proposed a few of the ideas mentioned by Whitehouse, such as pushing for Supreme Court term limits, but never candidly revealed these desires in a compact speech, such as the one delivered on Wednesday.

    The overarching theme of the outgoing president’s final address focused on the consolidation of power, warning of oligarchs as President-elect Trump enters the White House. 

    “In a democracy, there’s another danger to the concentration of power and wealth. It erodes a sense of unity and common purpose. It causes distrust and division,” he stated. “Participating in our democracy becomes exhausting and even disillusioning, and people don’t feel like they have a fair shot.” 

    “But we have to stay engaged in the process,” he continued.
