And that’s spending Hundreds of Millions of Dollars and putting our troops in harms way in a war zone to try to boost Biden’s increasingly poor prospects in Michigan.
Now this is just getting stupid.
Periodic reminder the Gaza Pier is a stunt designed to buy votes in Michigan and to undermine Israel by boosting the false narrative of a Gaza famine. It's costing hundreds of millions of American taxpayer dollars and endangering the lives of US… https://t.co/GCuVsE7DNF
The only thing more pathetic than them doing this type of “performance art” for votes is the acknowledgement or at least the assumption that their voters are stupid enough to fall for it.
The Biden Admin and whoever is paying them off has been one of the most destructive to America and Americans that I’ve seen in my lifetime, and I lived through the Carter and Johnson years.
One of the things that tend to irritate me is when people say something so obviously contrary to reality and expect me to play along. These tweets are a great example.
I'd say it's because all those corporations existed during the Trump era and those price increases didn't happen
Yup Donald Trump slaughtered them all and put them all in a mass grave but on January 21st 2021 like John Cleese’s Character that was turned into a Newt they all got better.
I had a Lesbian co-worker years ago who was convinced that Donald Trump would put her in a concentration camp if he was elected and the lack of being put in the concentration camp during the Trump years never convinced her otherwise.
As you can see fame is not a cure for this inability to see reality
Seriously? Cleese is trying to sell Trump as mentally impaired when he’s running against Biden? Cripes even Bill Mahar won’t play that game.
But even with all I’ve seen the most incredible bit of BS I’ve seen pushed at me was this:
Because I do the shopping in the house and have for years and that very day I went to the soda aisle and for the first time ever saw 2 liter bottles of soda offered at 2 for $5. I grabbed a cheaper brand and went to the frozen food aisle figuring to buy some Michelina’s frozen Penne & pasta meals & maybe a fettucine alfredo as they are a cheap alternative for lunch. They’re normally a buck each but I had seen them as high as a buck and a quarter lately.
They were $1.50 each A 50% increase over the Trump years and remember these are the bottom of the line in terms of price (not in quality however they are rather tasty).
So imagine what went through my mind when I saw this:
Why on earth is this stuff effective to some? The answer comes from human nature.
People hate to admit they were wrong, to notice the crashing economy, the rampant antisemitism, our rejection around the world, the abandonment of our allies, the massive amount of illegal immigration, the emptying of our strategic petroleum reserve all of the layoffs nationally and of course the President’s inability to walk or talk or complete a speech without a long list of corrections coming out from the White House is to concede that perhaps they were wrong for either their support for Joe Biden or the opposition to Donald Trump or both.
And to make that admission is more than they can bear.
My Pastor at St. Bernard’s Parish at St. Camillus church often talks about seeing yourself in the light of truth and that part of reason why so many choose hell is they give the choice of seeing themselves in the light of truth and accepting mercy and denying that truth for all the sufferings of hell they find all the torments of the damned preferable to the uncomfortable truths about themselves.
The truth about Joe Biden in general and the party they have adopted not as a means to a political end but as their religion is too much for them to bear.
It never ceases to amaze me how many people are shocked at the acts of the Biden Administration concerning Israel, particularly folks like Jonah Goldberg (a nice guy in person) and friends.
It appears that the folks who could have made a difference but decided to let the steal of the last election slide presumed that the goal of said steal was simply to remove Donald Trump which they were completely on board with. They now appear shocked SHOCKED that said folks had an actual agenda they wanted to push and are using said power to do so.
You mean to say if you let a bunch of bought and paid for crooks have power they might just use it? Amazing!
Apparently the shock SHOCK of Joe Biden deciding to suspend arms to Israel over attempting to destroy a group of terrorists who tired to annihilate them and still hold Israeli (and American) hostages is too much for some US senators.
of the Democratic senators running for reelection, most are staying mum, including those running in swing states. They include, at the time of publishing, Wisconsin’s Tammy Baldwin, Montana’s Jon Tester, Ohio’s Sherrod Brown, and Nevada’s Jacky Rosen. Michigan Rep. Elissa Slotkin—who is running to replace the state’s outgoing senator, Debbie Stabenow—has also remained silent, as have her fellow House colleagues running for Senate seats, Rubén Gallego of Arizona and David Trone of Maryland.
Oddly enough those who are shocked into silence are almost exclusively running in either red or swing states. Senators from deep blue states like Massachusetts, Vermont and Connecticut where even supporting the slaughter of Jews can’t hurt a democrat have no problem praising the move.
Unexpectedly of course.
One person who is incapable of being shocked into silence is James Carville who at 80 is just as loud as he has ever been. However while he is not silent he is in fact shocked.
He is shocked that nothing the Democrats seem to do in this campaign is working against Trump:
James Carville is frustrated that Trump is 'more ahead than he's ever been', and that Democrat tactics are 'not working': "It's going the wrong way. It's not working.Everything we're that throwing is spaghetti at a wall, and none of it is sticking, me included. We gotta try to… pic.twitter.com/OAMsDA37Ng
What you might note in this tirade is no mention of Biden’s policies or the overreaching of the left or the abandonment of Israel or the Economy that’s tanking faster than the Chicago White Sox. He might take a lesson from this old piece written on the day of the Scott Brown vs Martha Coakley election so many years ago: (My comment) in bold underline
If Brown wins today in Massachusetts, we’re going to hear all kinds of explanations. Misplaced voter anger is already being invoked. Coakley ran a horrible campaign. The incumbent party is unpopular when times are bad. It snowed. Or it didn’t. Whatever. The simplest explanation is that a majority of the citizens of Massachusetts oppose ObamaCare. Maybe they shouldn’t. Maybe they don’t realize how great it will be. (HA! DTG) But if Brown wins, the simplest explanation is that the most important issue, health care, was decisive. The voters don’t like ObamaCare and this is their chance to say so.
The actual performance of this administration or the state of the country is not relevant to Mr. Carville. It’s all about the game. He’s a salesman one might even say a master salesman and his product is Democrats any democrats no matter what they do, no matter what they say and after decades of selling a crappy product to a gullible public he is shocked SHOCKED that there doesn’t seem to be enough marks falling for the pitch.
So let me get this straight:
Bill Maher does an excellent eight minute monologue on the media covering irrelevant things for the sake of clicks and agenda:
And then leads the overtime segment of that very same with a story about a Virginia school district that had renamed two schools named after confederates restoring the original names.
Because on a weekend when Joe Biden is withholding military aid to Israel to the point where even Jonah Goldberg’s friends are done with him there is no issue bigger that needs to be addressed than a school named after Stonewall Jackson who died in 1863.
I can’t contain my degree of shock that he might just be another self serving liberal after all.
Finally I laughed aloud when I saw this story out on the Daily Wire:
Speaking on the support that RFK Jr. enjoys from some on the political right, Penn said: “I think that it will drop in half if Republicans learn the views, right now they don’t know these things.”
“And there’s a group of Republicans that don’t like anybody and he’s now the alternative to the alternative,” he continued. “So he’s got some votes, but I agree with you, he would lose a lot of Republican votes if this screen that you’re putting up there really got out and got broadcast.”
Here is the video
WATCH: Mark Penn on RKF Jr's base of support:
"I think that it will drop in half if Republicans learn the views, right now they don't know these things. And there's a group of Republicans that don't like anybody and he's now the alternative to the alternative. So he's got votes… pic.twitter.com/TjDhUXimaf
So let me get this straight, Republican votes are going to be shocked SHOCKED that a President Candidate:
Whose Father was AG in a Democrat administration and ran for President as a Democrat
Whose uncle was a Democrat congressman, Senator and President
Whose other Uncle was a Democrat senator for 40+ years
Who has been a democrat all his life
And who initially attempted to run for the Democrat nomination
Might have a bunch of opinions that are completely consistent with the Democrat party?
My degree of surprise can’t be understated!
Let me tell you something Mr. Penn, any republican who votes for RFK doesn’t care what his opinions are. They just want to be able tell their republican friends at GOP events they didn’t vote for Biden and tell their celebrity friends at events attended by all the “right” people that they didn’t vote for Trump.
Liberal college campuses typically try to distinguish and distance themselves from the military. For the longest time, many campuses had banned or essentially banned ROTC, although that has waned in the past decade. The longtime myth was that the military was a place of last resort for people who couldn’t otherwise make it in college. Given the recent trend of college life breeding anti-semitism and people that can’t seem to perform basic activities like reading, I give the military the upper hand on this one.
College and the military now share one very dark truth when it comes to prosecuting crimes. President Biden recently changed many Trump-era Title IX regulations that required due process in dealing with sexual harassment claims. In the past, if you accused someone of sexual assault on campus, the accused person had a right to confront the accuser and demand evidence. That seems so basic, yet campuses howled in pain at being required to take seriously accusations and, you know, actually look for evidence before disciplining students.
That’s entirely gone now. You can now, quite literally, accuse a fellow student of sexual assault, not provide evidence, and if the judge is persuaded by your story, your fellow student can be kicked out of the school without ever getting the chance to provide his or her side of the story.
That sounds insane to anyone who thinks justice is important. But its exactly like another system that exists in the US Military called non-judicial punishment (NJP).
Now, the “non-judicial” title might make you think it is some sort of proceeding that will be swept under the rug and not really hurt you. That couldn’t be further from the truth. NJP can impose some harsh punishments, such as cutting half of your pay for up to 2 months as well as restricting you to a barracks room for up to two months. More importantly, any NJP action can basically end your career. The military’s high year tenure system means if you don’t advance to a certain rank after so much time, they can separate you with the stroke of a pen.
The military has been under the gun to “do something” about sexual assault, so its not uncommon anymore to see someone accused of sexual assault get punished at NJP even with a lack of evidence. That’s because NJP, like Title IX, uses the “preponderance of evidence” standard, meaning that you don’t have to prove something beyond a reasonable doubt, just that there is some evidence that might point to the person being guilty. It could simply be a statement from the accuser. It doesn’t have to be scrutinized, it just needs to be persuasive to the military officer holding NJP.
The military and college campuses can now both hold claim to being centers of injustice in America.
