The “F Joe Biden” movement has become a national movement, showing up from college football games to protest marches, making it to concerts and onto live television.
It’s even become so popular, it produced its own spin-off chant — Let’s go, Brandon — in part because of the refusal of an NBC reporter to acknowledge that the crowd in the stands were actually shouting “F**k Joe Biden.”
When the chant broke out while Kelli Stavast was interviewing the winner of that day’s NASCAR race, Brandon Brown, Stavast claimed they were saying, “Let’s go, Brandon.” A meme was born, perfectly encapsulating not only the disgust with Joe Biden but with the fake media as well. This chant was used to demonstrate against Joe Biden, and it even made it into a flight over the Auburn game as well as at the Trump rally in Iowa.
The FJB chant now has an international dimension.
On Saturday, we reported from Rome about the huge anti-vaccine mandate demonstration. They came out against requiring the “Green Pass” in order to be able to work, for both public and private workplaces.
Employers and employees can both face fines if they don’t go along with this, and public workers can be suspended if they show up for work five times without the pass. Italy required the card to be able to visit museums, theatres and indoor restaurants as well as long-distance and domestic buses and trains.

It got ugly when the police started hitting people with batons or water cannons. The people reacted by fighting back.
Nancy Pelosi, D-CA House Speaker was scheduled to read the second reading of the Mass at the time the protest took place. Instead, the priest announced there had been a “security incident” and she would not be able to do it. It’s not clear what the incident was or if it had to do with the protest.
Protest organizers reported that the lowball number of protestors was 10,000, while the highest was 100,000.
It turned out that some of these people had thought about Joe Biden as well when they marched down Via Veneto, right past the American Embassy. You can clearly hear the “F**k Joe Biden” chant.

Now, it’s officially gone international, so you know it has real legs. But he’s become a symbol even to folks overseas of authoritarianism that needs to be called out. It’s a sign that not only is he suffering rightly in the polls here, but people overseas don’t like him either. And you know he isn’t going to like this.
Here’s a great collection of some of the other recent “F Joe Biden/Let’s go, Brandon takes” from MRC.
This trend is not stopping! There are signs and chants of “Let’s Go Brandon!” have joined the trend of “F*** Joe Biden!” Singing in the college stadiums. pic.twitter.com/ayVi3dIFAT
