Fox News "Media notified two months later of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg's parental leave"
. . ."Pete Buttigieg was completely unqualified to serve as Secretary of Transportation," Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., tweeted Monday. "Now, Pete is absent during a transportation crisis that is hurting working-class Americans." . . .

"On Friday, it was reported that in early September, the Art Institute of Chicago fired all of its docents, or trained volunteer museum guides and greeters, for being "mostly older white women of above-average financial means."
"According to the Wall Street Journal, on Sept. 3, Veronica Stein, an executive director of learning and engagement at the museum, sent an email to the more than 100 docents the museum has, firing all of them."In gratitude for their long, unpaid service—averaging 15 years each—the Art Institute offered the involuntarily retired guides a two-year free pass to the museum," wrote the Wall Street Journal.
"According to the Wall Street Journal, Stein said that the museum needs to move "in a way that allows community members of all income levels to participate, responds to issues of class and income equity, and does not require financial flexibility," reportedly pointing to the predominantly white and above-average financial means of the museum guides as an issue.
"A museum docent is a guide who serves as an educator who brings people on tours of the museums' artworks, giving details into the works and the artists' backgrounds. The position is usually a volunteer one."...
You can watch the entire CNN interview here. But it was on NBC's Meet the Press that Buttigieg really outdid himself with meaningless bureaucrat-speak. Sundance at The Last Refuge spotted it and transcribed some of it:
Biden's choice, Buttigieg: The Weak Link In The Supply Chain . . ."When asked on CNBC why the administration waited so long to take action, Buttigieg responded that “we’ve been working this issue from day one”.
"Well, not exactly.
"As Politico reported, Buttigieg was “mostly offline” starting in mid-August, and only went on a media blitz after Politico disclosed the fact that he’d been on an unannounced leave." . . .
"Pirro also reminded viewers that Obama told Stephen Colbert that he’d like to be telling a “stand-in” or a “front man/woman” what to do from behind the scenes in a theoretical third presidential term (which is prohibited by the U.S. Constitution) in office. “So I ask you, who do you think is running the White House?” Jeanine Pirro concluded."

running the White House and all fingers
point in one direction "With Democrat Joe Biden appearing much like an addled absentee landlord, Judge Jeanine Pirro is wondering who is actually in control in the White House, and by logical extension, of the entire U.S. federal government. "“What are we supposed to conclude when the most powerful man in the free world says that someone will reprimand him if he doesn’t do what they tell him to do?” she asked. “Is someone else in charge?” "Pirro then implied that she thinks she might know who is calling the shots on a de facto basis. |

As Biden's Ratings Plummet, Obama Tries to Save Him From Himself "Ah, those heady old days. Barack and Joe. Joe and Barack. Joe fancied himself as Barack’s Sundance Kid; Barack once warned: “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to “f**k things up.”

. . . "Here’s how political analyst Dan Schnur put it, as transcribed by the Examiner:
“Obama is the most popular politician in the country right now, and any Democratic candidate who is relying on support from swing voters needs him. This is what’s happening in Virginia right now, but next year you’ll see Obama campaigning in these key districts in addition to, or instead of, Biden.”
The Vindictive Obama is "most popular"! Perhaps with those who mask up, burning cities and ruining America's historical monuments. TD

"There’s a long-standing tradition among conservative pols and gabbers to compare every Democratic president to Jimmy Carter. It’s hardly surprising: Carter was the first and last sitting Democratic president since the 19th century to lose a general election. His presidency, moreover, led to a sort of Republican golden age with the landslide election (and 49-state reelection) of Ronald Reagan and the first Republican-controlled Senate since the early 1950s. It was natural for many pundits to compare the southern governor Bill Clinton and the foreign-policy novice Barack Obama to the 39th president, and Republicans, of course, loved to point to signs (falsely) indicating that both these men would be one-term presidents.
"The Jimmy Carter Redux game has returned with a vengeance in negative assessments of Joe Biden. For one thing, Biden was something of a contemporary (and supporter) of Carter’s; he was already in the Senate when the idea of a Carter presidency seemed like a preposterous long shot. For another, there is a rapidly emerging narrative on the right that some of the problems that sank Carter in 1980 are returning on Biden’s watch: inflation (combined with lagging economic growth), rising crime rates, feckless foreign-policy management, and a divided Democratic Party. So you are now routinely getting the kind of take Forbes reported back in May:
Trump, in a statement, joked that comparisons between Biden and Carter were “very unfair to Jimmy Carter,” claiming Carter “mishandled crisis after crisis” while “Biden has created crisis after crisis.”
“Joe Biden is the new Jimmy Carter,” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) tweeted last week, blasting Biden for “rising gas prices,” while Donald Trump Jr. called Biden “Jimmy Carter 2.0,” pointing to the lackluster April jobs report and inflation spikes.
"Actually, such comparisons are unfair both to Carter and to Biden, for different reasons. Let us count the ways in which their presidencies are strikingly dissimilar.". . .
Update: Joe Biden’s Malaise Speech
. . . "While the energy and border crises, as well as the economic and supply-chain troubles are self-inflicted, Biden and the Democratic Party are not directly responsible for all the ills. But the American ruling class, which includes Democratic politicians, the establishment media, and its privileged private-sector patrons and clients, as well as their counterparts in other nations, were the most vocal and demanding cheerleaders of economic lockdowns that are the root of much of the damage. Vaccine mandates and passports, more favorites of the ruling class, are creating further harm.
"Biden and his party are facing a set of problems that they have no answer for. So they respond they way Democrats always do when there’s trouble: Demand an increase in the size and scope of government. Then they chastise Americans as if they were children who want too much." . . .
