One of the few specifics in Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson’s hatchet job on Biden. And this one relates to videos in the public domain - not at all as described in the book. Raises questions about the accuracy of what they assert happened behind closed doors as told by un-named sources.
Woeful stuff.

Things I learned on Route 66; this is the Blarney Stone. Or at least a portion of it. It is in Shamrock Texas (pop.1789) and was cut off the original and brought over in 1950.
Either that, or it’s a lie told to draw tourists, totally unlike the actual Blarney Stone..
