In a recent spectacle of political theater, President Joe Biden decided to hand out Presidential Medals of Freedom, which some view as a magnificent honor and others see as yet another attempt at trolling by the administration. Alex Marlow, the ever-astute host of The Alex Marlow Show and Editor-in-Chief at Breitbart, dissected this award-giving frenzy, raising eyebrows and eliciting chuckles along the way.
According to Marlow, the Presidential Medal of Freedom is supposed to represent the pinnacle of civilian honor in the United States. However, under Biden’s wandering leadership, it has transformed into a quasi-reality show, diluting its significance quicker than one can say “administrative overreach.” Marlow argues that this latest round of medals is simply Biden’s way of making a mockery of something that once held true prestige.

Marlow wastes no time pointing out the irony of the situation—how a president who can’t seem to control his own border or handle inflation to save his life now thinks it prudent to hand out these high honors like Halloween candy. As if putting a bow on the chaos of his presidency, Biden’s actions have left many scratching their heads, questioning not just the recipients but the overall intent behind the presentation. Who knew that expressing one’s political misgivings could also come with a shiny medal?
The timing is also rather comedic. As the public grapples with rising costs for everyday essentials and ongoing border crises, Biden chose to focus on rewarding individuals in a manner better suited for a talk show rather than the office of the presidency. The disconnect between the administration’s priorities and the everyday American’s concerns has never been clearer, making this award ceremony feel like an elaborate buffoonery.
Marlow’s analysis hit home for many who find this comedic twist in an otherwise serious office both entertaining and disheartening. It seems as if under Biden, the highest civilian honor in the nation is bound to reduce the American experience to a series of punchlines, while individuals who would have once worn these medals as badges of honor are now left wondering if they are just part of a grand joke.
