Biden Angry About His Administration Being Blamed For Inflation: ‘I’m Sick Of This Stuff!’

 Biden Angry About His Administration Being Blamed For Inflation: 'I'm Sick Of This Stuff!' (VIDEO) (americanlookout.com)

"Joe Biden met with House Democrats on Friday and lost his cool at one point.

"He is apparently tired of his administration’s spending being blamed for inflation. The truth hurts, apparently.

"Bide n is simply not living in reality.

"Townhall reports:  Biden Loses It Over Americans Correctly Knowing the Cause of Inflation   Speaking to House Democrats at their winter retreat in Philadelphia Friday afternoon, President Joe Biden started yelling at Americans who pin inflation on excessive government spending.

Joe Biden Angrily Slams Americans for Blaming Him for Inflation in Lie-Filled Remarks

. . ."I don’t know about you, but I’m convinced. If economists like Paul Krugman, a man who has been wrong about nearly every economic issue of the last three decades, says Biden is in the clear, then that’s that.

"Seriously, though, doesn’t it feel like the White House’s messaging is starting to crack? They’ve clearly got no real answer to the inflation problem, and instead of at least feigning a solution, they are just doubling down on shouting about Russia and hoping no one notices how much gas was before Ukraine was invaded. At some point, a politician who never takes responsibility for anything just comes across as pathetic, and to be sure, there have been Republicans who have fallen into that trap.

"Contrary to conventional wisdom, never admitting blame is not always a winning political strategy, especially when things are objectively bad. Many voters appreciate a leader who says “that didn’t work, we are going to try something else.” But Biden is so stubborn and egomaniacal that he will never do that. He’d rather run the entire country off a cliff than stray from his far-left ideology, and that’s assuming he’s even in control of his own administration.

"Case in point? In the same remarks, he decided to also lie about oil production in the United States.". . .

The idea that oil companies just don’t want to pump more and sell more is asinine. Rather, the reason oil companies aren’t rushing to up production is almost solely due to government regulation and interference. It’s not enough to just have the rights to a federal lease (and the profitability of leases vary wildly). The investments needed to put the infrastructure in place to produce more range into the tens of billions. Why would an oil company take that kind of enormous financial risk in the current environment? What happens a year from now when Biden decides, on a whim, to shut down more leases? Or close down more pipelines? Are you starting to see the problem?

Transgender Cyclist Booted from Championship Race After Female Opponents Threaten Boycott (westernjournal.com)

"A man who identifies as a woman has been ruled ineligible to participate in a women’s championship cycling race in the United Kingdom after female competitors reportedly discussed boycotting the event.

"Emily Bridges, 21, competed against other men as Zach Bridges before coming out as transgender in October 2020.He had been planning to participate as a woman in this week’s National Omnium Championships in Derby.

"However, because Bridges was registered as a man, the Union Cycliste Internationale said he cannot compete against women until his registration as a male expires, USA Today reported Thursday.

"The UCI’s decision came after a number of female riders discussed boycotting the event because of Bridges’ participation and unfair advantage, the U.K.’s Guardian reported.

"In 2018, Bridges had set a national junior men’s record over 25 miles. He was on the Great Britain Academy program as a male rider but was dropped in 2020, according to the Guardian.". . .

 Psaki's Leaving the White House...For the #3 Cable News Network (townhall.com)


"President Biden's White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki will reportedly leave the administration later this spring to join MSNBC, according to an Axios scoop published Friday morning. Sources told Axios Psaki is "in exclusive talks with MSNBC" that are "nearly final" to jump to the network that trails Fox News and CNN in ratings after she leaves the Biden administration ahead of the midterms. ". . .

MSNBC needs Jen's reporting style; a perfect match.

 

. . ."It also seems Psaki will host an MSNBC show on Peacock, NBC’s streaming service.

I wonder who will take over Rachel Maddow’s 9 PM ET spot on MSNBC since Psaki won’t get it. Then again, things could change.

Report: Jen Psaki Leaving White House for Peacock Streaming Show (breitbart.com)

. . . Axios reported the news citing “a source close to the matter.”

"Biden’s press secretary will be the host of a show for MSNBC on NBCUniversal’s streaming platform, Peacock.

"Psaki, who is currently on leave after a second case of coronavirus, will leave the White House “around May” according to the report.

"Psaki worked as a political pundit on CNN before joining the White House, and will also participate in that capacity at NBC and MSNBC.

"Psaki’s choice to jump to MSNBCUniversal takes place just a month after she mocked cable news in an interview with actor Rob Lowe on his podcast,

“ 'Cable news is dying. Right? The ratings for it are dwindling. Right?” she noted, speaking of the challenges of the changing news environment.

"In February, Psaki was asked about reports that she was in talks with both CNN and MSNBC for a job in the cable news business.

“ 'I have more than enough on my plate here,” she replied. “And so you can’t get rid of me quite yet.' ”. . .

Hunter Laptop Story Confirms: Rein in Big Tech or Cease To Be a Free People

 Townhall

A look back at L'Affaire Hunter, with the clarity of both hindsight and the Times' and Washington Post's recent self-serving admissions, ought to provide a clarion wake-up call. There are few more pressing imperatives in American political life in the year 2022 than to rein in the Big Tech oligarchs and to reclaim "We the People"-rooted democracy from Silicon Valley technocracy. . . .


"On the precipice of the regime-defining 2020 presidential election, Facebook and Twitter committed their "Pearl Harbor attack" against the incumbent president, Donald Trump, and in dutiful favor of the regnant regime's favored candidate, Joe Biden.

"In an October move that would presage the collapse of the "public"-"private" distinction during the Biden presidency -- as seen in press secretary Jen Psaki's open bragging last summer of collusion with Mark Zuckerberg to censor COVID "misinformation," and Eric Schmidt's recently revealed role helping shape administration science policy -- Big Tech oligarchs dropped the hammer on the New York Post, a high-circulation newspaper, for its reporting on Hunter Biden's now-infamous "laptop from hell." The laptop's files demonstrated the notoriously troubled Hunter's venality, abuses of power and general sketchiness of his foreign dealings. He and some of his cronies remain under federal investigation for possible tax and money laundering violations." . . .

Blue State Blues: The 2020 Election* Gets a Giant Asterisk over Hunter Biden Laptop (breitbart.com)  "The 2020 election must forever be tagged with an asterisk, given that the country’s establishment media have finally admitted that Hunter Biden’s laptop, which they suppressed during the campaign, is authentic, despite President Joe Biden’s denials.". . .

. . ."Only later, after the election, did the public learn that Hunter Biden was in fact under federal investigation for tax violations. And now, 18 months later, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and CNN have admitted the laptop is, in fact, authentic.

"There is much more reporting to do: if the laptop is authentic, then so are emails alleging that Biden was to have held a 10% stake in a joint venture with a Chinese company controlled by the communist regime; so are emails confirming that Biden, while serving as Vice President, met with an executive from Burisma, the controversial Ukrainian energy company on which Hunter Biden was a board member; and that Biden met with his son’s other foreign business associates while in office.

"Regardless, the 2020 election can no longer be recognized as free and fair.

"You cannot have a free and fair election when the media, the tech companies, and the intelligence community censor information about the foreign business connections of one of the two presidential candidates.". . .

As Biden’s blunders fuel talk of invoking the 25th Amendment, Kamala steps up to support him by proving that she would be worse - American Thinker  

"When it comes to evaluating the elevation of Kamala Harris to the vice presidency, you can’t be too cynical. Everything about the woman invites contempt, from her entry into politics by becoming the mistress of a married man decades older than she, to the absolute disaster that was her presidential campaign that didn’t even last until the Iowa caucuses, to the rash of staff resignations and the pervasive talk of her laziness and irascibility on the part of departed employees.

"But there is one task she is more than capable of fulfilling: serving as an insurance policy against removal of Joe Biden from office by invocation of the 25th Amendment or impeachment. Almost as if she took this role as her charter and devoted uncharacteristic creativity and energy to the task, she has been delivering public statements of such triteness and imbecility that no rational person could really want her to succeed to the presidency.

"Thursday saw another contribution to Joe Biden’s hold on his office when she delivered comments on Jamaica (her father’s native country) that helped tamp down the recently rising talk of invoking the 25th.". . .

Recuse Yourself, Joe Biden – PJ Media 

 . . .Now that the New York Times and Washington Post have both authenticated the Hunter Biden emails — a story that was suppressed by the media and tech conglomerates on the flimsiest of pretexts to help Joe Biden win the 2020 election — it’s also what’s right for democracy. That’s how this works, right?. . .

Madness and corruption: Democrats have all their bases covered.

The big slap in the face, seen around the world! Ouch! - American Thinker   "The big "slap" witnessed worldwide was not actor Will Smith's slap on comedian Chris Rock.  That was mere "theatre" compared to the slap in the face all Americans experience with current U.S. policies.  All Americans experience the big slap when "leaders" (so-called) dismissively perpetuate brazenly grotesque lies, hypocrisy, and fraud!

"When Biden and his administration attempt to assert that the economic pain we're experiencing is wholly due to "Putin," this is a grotesque lie!  This lie is being proffered by people who are not serious.  They have no intention of solving economic woes; they created them.  Economic chaos was created when Biden decided to restrict oil production in the U.S. to cater to Marxist "green" environmentalists, irrespective of the harm all Americans will feel in trying to heat their homes and drive their cars.  After progressively gaining momentum over the past year, many now experience a doubling of their grocery and gasoline costs!  "Putin did it" is pure projection and a slap in the face of all Americans who began experiencing the pain of Biden's policies in the early spring of 2021.

"When various "leaders" assert that their "defund the police" mantra is not encouraging more crimes, they are proffering a grotesque lie.  Their denigration of law enforcement has caused more assaults, death, and destruction in our communities.  Additionally, the "defund" movement has resulted in a significant increase in police ambushes and death.  It is a slap in the face of all Americans who sees the carnage and feel the increased threats of crime and violence as they walk the streets of their respective communities.  Attempts by city council members, city mayors, governors, and members of the House and Senate to obfuscate the obvious disastrous impact of the "defund" movement are cynical, hypocritical, and fraudulent.". . .

Ricky Gervais Reveals What Joke He Would Have Told About Jada Smith on Oscar Night –

  RedState


Chris Rock is one of the most successful and respected comics of the last 25 years and he told a mild joke last night about Will Smith’s wife, Jada. Make no mistake about it, that was a mild joke because if Rock had wanted to, he could have gone into the infidelity that Jada has admitted to in their marriage.

So if anyone thinks that Chris Rock’s peers are going to sit by and allow one of their own to be attacked over a joke, you are going to watch a magnificent display of how good comics can dissect you in a heartbeat. I’m not talking just about big names either — you are going to have up-and-comers, people who are somewhat known, all dive in on how Smith totally overreacted to this joke.

There is no escaping the verbal arse-kicking Will Smith is now going to take and he deserves every bit of it.

This is exactly what I was talking about in my post above, anticipating comics were going to start to unload on the award-winning actor. There is way too much material about the off-the-wall stuff that Will and Jada Smith have talked about and done for it not to be open season on them after Will attacked a beloved comedian. This is further proof in my mind to answer the question of Brandon’s video above — that this was not a fake event, but that Will Smith acted irrationally and is going to suffer humiliation at the hands of professional and amateur comics for the rest of his life and beyond.

"Ricky Gervais reveals in one single line that cuts to the heart of the matter of how all these wackjobs in Hollywood act and how they see themselves. Gervais did this at the Golden Globes a couple of years ago, where the last part of his opening act absolutely destroyed Hollywood and their detachment from reality. So it is no surprise that he focused on the one really odd thing about Will and Jadas’ relationship (being in an open marriage), which puts into perspective Will Smith’s thin-skinned reaction to a joke about hair.

"The dude is a broken man.

"Now that Ricky has kicked open the gate of ridicule I look forward to what else is coming in the next days and months about this lunacy."

The Left's Reaction to Will Smith's Slap Attack on Chris Rock at the Oscars Is Nothing New (townhall.com)   "In the name of alopecia, we shall slap you silly. It's just amusing. The folks who say that "words are violence" or "silence is violence" are now cheering on actual violence. What we saw last night was assault and battery. ". . .

Why the Madness of Democrats?

 


The Weakest Presidential Line Of Succession Ever – Issues & Insights (issuesinsights.com)   "As Vladimir Putin floats terrifying hints of Russia’s willingness to use nuclear weapons against countries that assist in Ukraine’s defense against Moscow’s brutal invasion, the United States is saddled with a president teetering on the brink of senility, and a woman one heartbeat away from the presidency who is as dependably incompetent as she is undependable in prepping herself on national and international issues.

"Polling makes clear that the public is fully aware of, and disconcerted by, the alarming shortcomings of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris alike; but at the same time, there is little if any appreciation of the unprecedented vulnerability to the United States due to those further down in the line of succession. Old age, timidity, and lack of qualification abound among those who might be thrust into the job of most powerful individual on earth, charged with leading the free world.". . .

Why the Madness of Democrats? Part 1 | Scragged   "Democrat misgovernance seems not to make sense, so what are we missing?"  July 22, 2020

. . ."Today we are met with an even more vexing problem: why are blue-state politicians taking actions that are patently insane from an electoral point of view?  What could possibly be the curious motivations of blue state governors and mayors as they order their police departments not to stop the current plague of BLM riots that are turning their cities into bombed-out wastelands?

"It's normally a safe assumption that elected officials not only want to be re-elected, they desire to move to higher office.  It's been said that when any state governor looks in a mirror, a future President of the United States looks back, and many mayors and prosecutors have become governors.

"Instead of building resumes suitable for advancement, we see blue state officials responding to the widespread Black Lives Matter riots according to a pattern which apparently goes against their interest in winning the coming November elections.  We see as them acting against their own apparent best interests, just as Mr. Frank thought Kansas voters acted against their interests.  Like Mr. Frank, we'll offer explanations; perhaps we'll do better than he did in coming up with sensible ones.". . .

The seeds of today’s madness were planted decades ago – Behind The Black – Robert Zimmerman

"Political journalist Doug Ross yesterday re-posted an essay he had written a decade ago, which had successfully predicted the crime wave we are undergoing today.". . .

. . .

Obama and his Democrat sycophants in Congress will have created hundreds of thousands of single-parent families. These kids, born out-of-wedlock, will find themselves trapped in lives of criminality at far higher rates than kids from two-parent families.

Fast forward a dozen years, give or take a couple, and we will see a true Obama Crime Wave. I predict that we will see an unprecedented increase in crime. In fact, you could call it historic.

And the question is not whether it will happen. The question is just how bad it will be.

"Ross’s prediction in 2011 was of course guaranteed to be right, as good social science research since the early and mid-twentieth century had shown that if you raise children in broken homes, chaos ensues when they reach adulthood.

"I think however that Ross and most previous researchers have missed half the equation. Broken homes certainly produce adults who don’t know right from wrong, and thus become hardened and violent criminals.

"However, broken homes also produce adults who become politicians and lawyers and entertainers and businessmen, and though these individuals might not be violent criminals, they themselves no longer can conceive and put forth policies that encourage the rule of law and a truly just society. We can see this fact in the effort during the past two years by Democratic Party politicians to “defund the police” and to eliminate all bail, thus giving criminals a free rein in the states and cities run by Democrats. These politicians might sincerely believe these policies will reduce crime, but they do so because they themselves no longer have good judgment. They have been raised in a society of broken homes, and carry with them that curse into adulthood.". . .

"The worst aspect of this social tragedy is its long term consequences. You can’t fix this by simply ending the bad social policies from the past. The adults raised under them still exist, and still do not have the emotional training to build a civilized world, or even maintain a secure two-parent family for their own children. Their children are likely going to be broken as well, no matter what the government policy. Chaos will remain, and it will continue to wreck its havoc for many more decades.". . .
