Matt Gaetz Suffers Shock Bill Defeat as Nine Republicans Vote Against Him

 Matt Gaetz Suffers Shock Bill Defeat as Nine Republicans Vote Against Him (newsweek.com)   . . ."Force-feeding wokeness to our service members DILUTES military readiness!" Gaetz tweeted on June 23. "Our military should focus on winning an actual conflict rather than losing a misguided culture war."

The nine Republicans who joined Democrats to vote down the Gaetz amendment were Congress members Don Bacon, Lori Chavez-DeRemer, Anthony D'Esposito, Brian Fitzpatrick, Jenniffer González-Colón, John James, Mike Lawler, Marcus Molinaro and Mike Turner.

Newsweek has contacted Representative Gaetz's Washington D.C. office for comment, by email and answer phone message.

Separately, an amendment from GOP Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene which would have eliminated $300 million in funding for Ukraine from the NDAA was voted down on a bipartisan basis, with 89 Republican representatives in favor and 130 voting against.

Biden angrily yells, curses at aides in private

 Axios

. . ."Jeff Connaughton, a former Biden campaign and Senate aide who was chief of staff to Kaufman when he filled Biden's seat in the Senate, wrote about Biden's temper in his 2012 book on Washington corruption, "The Payoff: Why Wall Street Wins."

Connaughton wrote that as a senator, Biden was an "egomaniacal autocrat … determined to manage his staff through fear."

He told of a time during the 2008 presidential campaign when a 23-year-old fundraising staffer got into the car with Biden.

"Okay, senator, time to do some fundraising calls," the aide said. Biden responded by looking at him and snapping: "Get the f**k out of the car."

Connaughton told Axios that Biden "hides his sharper edge to promote his folksy Uncle Joe image — which is why, when flashes of anger break through, it seems so out of public character." . . .

 

Biden's expiration date was long ago.

 Yet they had to wait till he had surrendered in Afghanistan!

Joe Scarborough says Biden ‘is so sharp’ and even wife Mika Brzezinski has a hard time with it -Thomas Lifson   "Although the video clip below from Grabien goes on and on for almost 4 minutes, the first minute will give you the gist if you’ve just eaten or have a weak stomach. For reasons unknown to me, former Republican Congressman Joe Scarborough, now turned into a fervent Democrat apologist as host of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, stakes his credibility on the notion that President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. is actually not a dementia-ridden husk of his former self, but is actually “so sharp.”


Joe Biden ‘Nibbled’ Again, Violating a Terrified Toddler - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics   . . ."So why aren’t parents trusting their child’s instincts when an adult, who otherwise bears no relationship to the child, acts inappropriately toward him or her? And why does the mother, who is clearly holding the child in her arms, ignore Biden’s behavior? 
"Senility and presidential power don’t excuse Biden’s behavior. If he’s truly senile, extra caution should be taken around children, who are too young to understand the situation around them. If he’s the president, the standard of behavior should be higher, especially with the most vulnerable: children.
"A child squirming away from a stranger kissing him or her sends a signal to mom and dad. Leftist parents are missing the message and enabling a pervert because he shares their politics. It needs to stop."

The most disturbing Biden weirdness yet - Thomas Lifson    . . ."I could not hold Harris in lower regard, yet I think she is preferable in the Oval Office to this husk of a man whose expiration date obviously has passed. Given the rate of Biden’s decline, it can only get worse, and it will do so at an accelerating pace.

"It’s time to badger Biden’s cabinet with demands that they invoke the 25th and spare the  nation the risk it faces. She could not be worse than Biden, and most likely, the same puppet  masters would be guiding her.

"And being frank, The Democrats ought to be stuck with her as the incumbent candidate when they proceed with their nominating process.  I acknowledge the peril a President Harris would involve, but at this point it is a lesser evil. "  

 Baby Gains The Powers Of An Old Man After Being Bitten By Biden |From the Parodigal son, Babylon Bee  HELSINKI — A young Finnish child was suddenly imbued with the incredible powers of advanced age and dementia Thursday after being bitten by a stray American president. Her DNA forever changed; the adorable one-year-old has since transformed into Old Baby, a defender of children everywhere.

" 'Old Baby's powers are beyond that of mere mortals," wrote Oliver Laine, a spunky news reporter for Helsinki Times. "Her forgetfulness and incontinence know no bounds!' ". . .
