Biden: Some European leaders ‘asking me to get engaged'
Former President Biden claimed during an event in San Diego this week that world leaders and U.S. lawmakers have urged him to stay involved in politics and have sought his advice since he left the White House in January. 'I'm getting calls — I'm not going to get into it, I can't — from a number of European leaders asking me to get engaged,' Biden said while addressing the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) gathering on Wednesday. 'I'm not, but I'm giving advice.' 'I'm also dealing with a lot of Democrats and Republican colleagues calling me, wanting to talk — not because they think I have the answer, just to bounce things off (me),' he added. He didn't reveal the specific topics he has been consulted about. Biden told the San Diego crowd this week that he is not initiating the discussions with current leaders or seeking the spotlight, but others are seeking him out as they adjust to Trump's second presidency. 'How can you just walk away?' Biden asked. 'You don't see me out there publicly doing a lot of this,' he added, joking that the California location of the conference address made it easier to visit his great-grandson in Los Angeles. Biden's eldest granddaughter, Naomi, had the baby in January. Biden also revealed to the crowd that he has been 'working like hell' to write a new memoir documenting his presidency and enjoying time in his 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. Biden, 82, ended his reelection campaign against President Trump a year ago, after facing mounting pressure from Democrats over his disastrous televised debate with Trump weeks earlier and questions about his ability to serve another term. The book 'Original Sin' from reporters Jake Tapper of CNN and Alex Thompson of Axios offered additional insight into concerns that emerged about Biden's health and mental fitness near the end of his term. Biden, who revealed in May that he has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, has denied depictions in the book, and he has maintained he would have been able to serve another term. House Republicans are investigating Biden's mental fitness while in office and have sought testimony from multiple people who were top aides during his presidency.

Shedeur Sanders Car Collection: All the cars Shedeur Sanders owns and why Tom Brady called him out for it
Shedeur Sanders isn't just winning on the field, he's winning in the parking lot, too. Now with the Cleveland Browns and millions already earned through NIL deals, Shedeur has built a car collection that would make even NFL vets do a double take. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now From a Rolls-Royce Cullinan to a Lamborghini Urus and even gifting a Maybach to a teammate, his garage is the new flex zone. And yes, Tom Brady did weigh in. From Rolls-Royce to Lamborghini, here's every car in Shedeur Sanders' garage Rolls-Royce Cullinan – $350K The crown jewel of his collection, this luxury SUV generated quite the buzz when Shedeur showed it off. After receiving some criticism about whether a college student really needed a Rolls-Royce, Shedeur's dad, Deion Sanders, turned to Tom Brady for advice. Brady's response? 'Get his a** in the film room.' Lamborghini Urus – $240K Shedeur's Lamborghini Urus is the epitome of flash and power, combining luxury with performance. It's an SUV with speed, featuring a 650-horsepower V8 engine. This beast shows Shedeur's penchant for mixing sports car thrills with practicality at least for someone who needs to carry more than just himself to the game. Shedeur Sanders BALLIN Car Collection Has to be Seen Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 – $200K each Not one, but two of these ultra-luxurious SUVs have entered Shedeur's collection. One was a gift from his NIL deal with Mercedes-Benz, while the second was an independent purchase. But the real flex? Shedeur gave one of them to his offensive lineman, Jordan Seaton, as a thank-you for his hard work. That's $400K worth of Maybachs in his garage, an impressive symbol of his gratitude and his rise in college football. Tesla Cybertruck – $80K+ Shedeur's interest in innovation is clear with his purchase of a Tesla Cybertruck, one of the first in Colorado. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now With its futuristic design and cutting-edge electric tech, the Cybertruck shows that Shedeur isn't just about flashy cars, he's also about sustainability. Plus, it's a cool addition to his collection of vehicles with distinct characters. Chevrolet Corvette Stingray – $60K When Shedeur was just starting to build his car collection, he made a statement with the iconic Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. This classic American sports car, valued at around $60K, is one of his earlier acquisitions. It's sleek, fast, and is a nod to his appreciation for traditional American muscle and style. Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat – $90K If you want to talk about raw power, the Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat has a 710-horsepower HEMI V8 engine that makes it one of the most powerful SUVs on the road. While it's not as flashy as his Lamborghini, this muscle SUV is a testament to Shedeur's ability to mix luxury with performance. This car isn't about subtlety, it's a statement on wheels. Mercedes EQB – $55K Finally, for those days when Shedeur wants to show off his eco-friendly side, there's the Mercedes EQB. With an electric engine and a sleek, luxurious design, this ride proves that Shedeur can have both style and sustainability in one package. At around $55K, the EQB is the perfect addition to a diverse garage. As you'd expect, owning multiple high-end cars in a college town like Boulder, Colorado, comes with its own set of challenges. In one particularly entertaining moment, Shedeur's Rolls-Royce Cullinan was booted for parking violations on campus. The irony? It was one of the most expensive cars ever to get a ticket, showing that even the ultra-wealthy can get caught up in the everyday hassles of college life. Still, that didn't stop Shedeur from cruising around in style. Also read -
