KJP the consummate gas-lighter

 He certainly isn’t serving normal folks, like you and me. My first campaign manager was right when dealing with press secretaries: be careful not to step in the ********, otherwise, you’ll get stuck.   19FortyFive

Karine Jean-Pierre Might Have Finally Crossed the Line - 19FortyFive   "When Karine Jean-Pierre lies and says she can’t keep up with the president because he’s always moving so quickly to serve the American people, it strains credulity. How can a part-time president achieve this?" . . .
A lot going on...


Karine Jean-Pierre responds to AOC: Biden has 'done more than anybody' to secure the border (msn.com)    "The president has done more to secure the border and to deal with this issue of immigration than anybody else. He really has!" Jean-Pierre said Thursday. 

"Look, the president has done what he can from here, from the federal government, from the White House to put forth and manage our border in a safe and humane way to respect the dignity of every human, as he says all the time, and making sure that our communities are safe," she added. 

KJP: We're Doing a Better Job on Border Security Than Those Obstructionist Republicans, or Something (townhall.com) . . ."This comes on the heels of the Vice President (and border czar, don't forget) dutifully repeating the insulting line that the border is secure in an interview on Sunday -- though in fairness, she could barely even pretend that she believed what she was saying.  Jean Pierre was any more convincing.  There have been nearly one million known got-aways on Biden's watch.  There have also been millions more encounters, many of which have resulted in illegal immigrants being simply processed and released into the country.  The border is quite conspicuously not secure.  And if she wants to invite a game of comparisons, that would be very unwise.  Click through and look at these statistics.  Let's toss out the summer of 2020 as a COVID anomaly.  Let's compare apprehensions under the Trump administration in 2019, versus under Biden in 2022.  In April of 2019, there were about 109,000 encounters at the border.  This past April, the number swelled to nearly 236,000.  In July 2019 -- slow season due to heat -- there were 82,000 encounters.  July 2022 saw 200,000.  Team Biden is shattering records on this front." . . .

The panic is somewhat moot, to begin with, since the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism recommendation is just that — a recommendation. There’s no mechanism to enforce the limit, which already exists — at two beers per day.
