On Tuesday, President Joe Biden blasted MAGA Republicans who backed the effort to rig the 2020 election and singled out GOP legislators like Lindsey Graham for their support of Donald Trump.

President Joe Biden targeted Donald Trump supporters in a campaign-style speech in Pennsylvania intended to boost enthusiasm for Democratic candidates in that state. He linked the subject to support for law enforcement and defended the FBI's raid on Mar-a-Lago.

Biden Defends FBI From Attacks After Trump's Mar-a-Lago Raid

"You can't be pro law enforcement and pro insurrection," he told Republicans, calling the attacks on federal officers sickening. President Joe Biden didn't mention Trump by name, but it was apparent who he was criticizing when he attacked Republican members for supporting the January 6th uprising and spearheading congressional protests to attempt and overturn the election results.

When police in the Capitol were speared with flagpoles, sprayed with mace, stamped on, pulled, and brutalized, he questioned how they could claim to be pro-cops. This day resulted in the deaths of police.

Joe Biden's address overpowered the applause from the Democratic supporters. After that, he defended federal agents who had been threatened after the earlier this month's raid on Trump's resort in Palm Beach, Florida. Agents are investigating if Trump took any classified materials with him when he left the White House.

Additionally, the Trump attacked Lindsey Graham. If Donald Trump gets charged with a crime, Graham warned of riots in the streets in an interview. Although Graham wasn't specifically mentioned by President Joe Biden, it was obvious who he was alluding to.

He made a comparison between the Trump inquiry and how the FBI handled the president's son Hunter Biden. Republicans claim that Hunter is receiving preferential treatment because of this father's position. The White House asserts that it does not meddle in federal inquiries.

An unsealed warrant stated that Trump is being looked into for probable espionage act violations and justice obstruction. Trump has insisted time and time again that he declassified all the records kept at Mar-a-Lago after he left office and that he is innocent of any wrongdoing.

The president, last week, accused them of semi-fascism when he spoke at a fundraiser for Democrats at a posh private home in the Maryland suburbs outside of Washington DC. In contrast, President Joe Biden is focusing his election-year rhetoric on supporters of the former president, whom he calls extreme MAGA Republicans, as per Daily Mail.

POTUS Steps up Criticisms Against GOP Ahead of Midterm Elections

President Joe Biden has made it a point to stay away from the revelations of the congressional investigation into the assault on the Capitol and doesn't frequently reference the events of January 6. To persuade Americans to support Democrats in the approaching midterm elections, he has increased his criticism of Republicans, particularly those candidates on the ballot who support Trump.

The president will return to a major issue of his 2020 campaign when he speaks from Philadelphia during prime time on Thursday. He will highlight safeguarding democracy and defending what he calls the spirit of the nation, according to The Hill.

Meanwhile, a Republican senator joined her colleagues in spinning their party's defense of Donald Trump following the FBI's discovery of allegedly secret Mar-a-Lago papers by making an unusually odd charge against Joe Biden during a recent news appearance.

Joni Ernst of Iowa claimed that the president was allegedly "using" media attention to the purported criminal investigation of the former president to divert attention away from other "crises" including the high cost of gasoline and inflation during her appearance on Fox News on Monday to discuss the raid.

However, given that gas prices have been plummeting across the country at an astounding rate and are currently more than a dollar per gallon below their peak, the notion was puzzling. Given that OPEC just lowered its forecast for the world's oil demand for the rest of the year, the odds are in favor of gas prices continuing to drop unless there is a substantial disruption in the oil supply, Independent reported.
