We Are Governed by People Who Suck

"Let’s face it: Joe Biden sucks.

Everything about him sucks. He sucks as a messenger, his economic policies suck, he completely sucks as a truth-teller. He sucks in the integrity department.

And people suffering from the debilitating effects of old age can tell you that absolutely sucks. You are not the person you used to be, and you can’t do the things you used to do.

Joe Biden sucked before he became increasingly, cruelly incapacitated by the decline of his faculties. Thursday’s Potemkin sham of a press conference, in which pre-written questions and scripted answers replaced an honest dialogue with the American people over the state of our union, made that clear.

"That press conference sucked. It wasn’t a press conference; it was a book report.

"We shouldn’t have been forced to embrace Biden’s suck.

Biden’s family sucks for putting him, and us, through what’s going to obviously get much worse over time.

"This man has the toughest job in the world, and it’s obvious he’s not up to the task. If you can’t answer questions off the cuff from an almost universally friendly press corps, it means you suck at the job.

"We’ve had presidents who have sucked before. But not since Woodrow Wilson had a stroke in office and finished his second presidential term as an invalid, mostly comatose, with his wife running the country as a proxy president, have we had a situation sucking as badly as this one clearly will.

What’s worse is even now, we really don’t know who’s running the country. It’s supposed to be the guy we elected. The president is supposed to be in charge.

"Is Joe Biden in charge? He doesn’t even know what he’s doing here. He says it all the time.

"That sucks. And the world is watching." . . .

Chris Christie Says Biden’s ‘Lying to Cause Racial Divisions’ Over GA Election Law: ‘He’s a Liar and a Hypocrite’  A Democrat brought up the Biden lie about "no water in line".

Chris Wallace Falsely Claims New Georgia Law Bans Drinking Water While In Line For Voting

“It’s wrong. It’s wrong. It’s a fake narrative,” DeSantis shot back. “I just disabused of the narrative, and you don’t care about the facts because, obviously, I laid it out for you in a way that is irrefutable, and so it’s clearly not.”

Georgia Voting Law Does Not Forbid Access to Water, As Long As It's 'Self-Service...From an Unattended Receptacle' . . . "On Friday, President Biden told reporters that Georgia "passed a law saying you can't provide water for people standing in line while they're waiting to vote. You don't need anything else to know that this is nothing but punitive, designed to keep people from voting. You can't provide water for people about to vote? Give me a break."

"But that's not what the law says.

"The law says:

No person shall solicit votes in any manner or by any means or method, nor shall any person distribute or display any campaign material, nor shall any person give, offer to give, or participate in the giving of any money or gifts, including, but not limited to, food and drink, to an elector [a voter], nor shall any person solicit signatures for any petition, nor shall any person, other than election officials discharging their duties, establish or set up any tables or booths on any day in which ballots are being cast:" . .  .

Donald J. Trump: Joe Biden’s Best Friend

 Victor Davis Hanson

The myth of Biden the healer, and Trump the cruel divider, got Biden elected. But the fantasy that Biden had the answers to problems that Trump created is a far greater—and more dangerous—delusion.

"The Pavlovian “Trump did it!” sums up Joe Biden’s fallback excuse when faced with any embarrassment.  

"His own completely optional, self-created, illegal immigration disaster? Trump somehow caused it, despite leaving office with a stable and secure border.  

"Vaccination rates soaring? There would be even more if not for Trump’s mere 1-million-a-day vaccination rate, mere weeks after the rollout of the “experimental” vaccinations that supposedly would take “years” to develop. 

"Chinese aggressiveness? Trump’s provocations again due to all his paranoid talk of travel bans, and a lab-escaped virus. 

"European unwillingness to confront the Chinese? Yep, Trump’s the cause again, with jawboning our friends into paying $100 million more for their own defense.  

"In truth, Trump’s atmospherics were chaotic, but not just due to his incessant tweeting and candid ad hoc outbursts—or even media hatred that led to 90 percent negative coverage by the networks, newspapers, and online social media. (Notice how few, Left or Right, use any more the adjective “left-wing” or “liberal,” since to do so is a redundancy: “the media” is now accepted as a synonym for “left-wing media.”)  

"Instead, what enraged the elite was Trump’s unapologetic effort to fire up the economy to benefit Americans through massive deregulation, tax reform and reduction, encouragement of returning investment to the United States, and expansion of energy production, exploration, and delivery. The result was that on the eve of the pandemic, there was a trifecta of record-low minority unemployment and near-record peacetime low unemployment, record energy production, and strong GDP growth." . . .  

Boycott boomerang: Genius Dems start to realize Georgia boycott will cost them votes in the Peach State

Barack Obama Cheers MLB for Moving the All-Star Game  Cheers the man who once led the Free World, gave pallets of cash as ransom for his sailors and most of the Middle East to the Russians and ISIS.

Boycott boomerang: Genius Dems start to realize Georgia boycott will cost them votes in the Peach State    "Democrats thought they had a brilliant plan to force Georgia to permit widespread voting fraud by getting their woke pals in corporate America to bully the state into repealing its brand-new voting integrity law that mandates voter ID and other common-sense measures. Two Atlanta-based corporate giants, Coca-Cola and Delta Airlines, denounced Georgia’s new voting integrity bill, and Major League Baseball announced it was moving the All-Star Game away from Atlanta.

"Oops!"

"Guess who gets hurt in the estimated $100 million impact from the loss of the MLB showcase. That would be the little guys who work at hotels and restaurants, who are vendors at the game, and who work in other service industries. The local Dem pols realized this quickly. Last Friday, Laura Ingraham reported:

[T]he blowback against this is growing, which forced even liberal Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff to put out a statement last night saying, "I absolutely oppose and reject any notion of boycotting Georgia." But then he said that look,  corporations that are disgusted, like we are with this voter suppression bill, should stop any financial support for the Georgia Republican Party.   . . .

Do Springsteen or other rockers have concerts scheduled for Georgia? Better avoid that, because if you do, they will be your master and owner. Dare to offend them in any way and they will cancel on you just as Bruce did to North Carolina, costing millions of dollars. TD

Fact Check: Major League Baseball Moves All-Star Game over Law that Expands Some Voting  . . . "VERDICT: FALSE. The new Georgia law actually expands some voting, contrary to claims by Democrats and the media.

"MLB became the latest victim of a hoax about Georgia’s voting law when it announced Friday that it would move the 2021 All-Star Game out of the state. In a statement, MLB said it supports voting rights and “opposes restrictions to the ballot box.”

"Major corporations based in Atlanta, such as Coca-Cola and Delta Air Lines, have also criticized the new law harshly. But as the Wall Street Journal noted in an editorial Thursday, “They’re denouncing Georgia’s election law, but have they read it?”

"Fact-checkers have already taken President Joe Biden to task for false statements about the law, as Breitbart News noted:" . . .

Axios declares CEOs 'the new lawmakers'

 Monica Showalter   . . . "This is why the corporate state is so hard to get rid of. And why, with its hooks in, leads to underdevelopment. Democrats, CEOs, and activists want this, of course. Axios and others write about this like it's a good thing and not a naked threat to America. Corporate state to them all means power. The only people left out of this cruel immutable structure are the people.

"Trump's call to boycott these corporations to force them return to their market orientation and pay attention to their buyers might just be more important than it looks."

The Woke-Military-Complex

spectator.org

The Woke-Military-Complex  . . . "Recently, Fox News show host Tucker Carlson  committed the sin of scrutinizing the military’s general embrace of a “woke” perspective. “So we’ve got new hairstyles and maternity flight suits,” he said, referring to updated Army and Air Force hair regulations. “Pregnant women are going to fight our wars. It’s a mockery of the U.S. military.” Put simply, he believes the Pentagon has the wrong priorities—and he’s right. Consider that since 2016, the military has also spent roughly $8 million on hormone therapy and surgical treatments for 1,500 transgender troops. How does this prepare America for a seemingly inevitable confrontation with China?

"Tough questions like these don’t seem to sit well with official mouthpieces and sensitive senior military personnel." . . . 

Black Americans Debunk Democrat Claim that Voter ID Is 'Racist'

 Neon Nettle

People left stunned by 'ignorant' leftist talking point about voter ID requirements

"As the Left pushes misleading claims about voter ID laws being "racist," black Americans were stunned to hear talking points being pushed by Democrats to support the narrative.

"Democrats are continuing to push back against Republican efforts to tighten election security by requiring voters to produce identification before submitting their ballots.

"For years, the Left has been claiming that voter ID laws are racist by alleging that black Americans lack access to the Internet, are unable to contact the DMV, and have a general lack of knowledge about how to obtain identification.

"These claims have recently been renewed in the wake of Georgia passing new voter integrity laws to tighten the security of future elections.

"However, on-the-street reporting from 2016 by Ami Horowitz has again become relevant.

"Horowitz took to the streets of Berkeley, California, to ask white liberals about their views on voter ID, and, unsurprisingly they all parroted the same talking points by claiming the requirement was racist."  . . .

The Georgia House Went on the Offensive - Now the Georgia GOP Needs To Follow Suit

The saying has been that when you died, no matter if you were bound for Heaven or Hell, you had to go through Atlanta first. TD

PJ Media

"The Georgia House went on the offensive on Thursday, pushing back against the CEO of Delta, Ed Bastian, who criticized the election security law passed and signed into law by Governor Brian Kemp. The Georgia House revoked Delta’s millions in tax credits before they adjourned for the year. Sadly, the Georgia Senate, led by Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan, failed to do the same before the body adjourned.

"Delta is never going to abandon its Georgia hub because they have successfully prevented a regional airport like Midway in Chicago. Through predominantly Republican support for big business in the state, Delta has held the metro Atlanta hostage to the airport they practically own, despite the electorate’s preference for a regional option. Now, Delta bites the hand that feeds them, and Duncan did nothing. Another consideration for 2022." . . .

The Morning Briefing: Biden and His Idiot Supporters Are Trying to Cancel Georgia

The kicker here is that Atlanta is the Democratic stronghold in Georgia. The cancel animals are so rabid that they don’t care that they are advocating for the economic punishment of their political comrades. The woke scolds continue to redefine absurdity.

So MLB is fine with ball games in Cuba and training in China, but Georgia is the human-rights problem  . . . "Can they explain for us why they recently held a ball game in brutal totalitarian military dictatorship of Cuba? A place Cuban ball players flee from to freedom, which in come cases includes MLB salaries made possible only by living in a free, democratic society that exists already? They aren't fleeing to a hellhole, which is what MLB is now claiming about Georgia.

"Can they explain to us why they hold a training camp in China, home of the Uighur slave-labor laogai and the broken-treaty de-democratization of Hong Kong?" . . .

So baseball has joined the NBA and NFL in their wokeness. Politics has contaminated every form of entertainment in our country  . . . "Meanwhile, I am glad I am old.  I don't know how much more of this  I can take."

Kemp Rips MLB For Caving to 'Fear, Political Opportunism and Liberal Lies'

"Georgia Governor Brian Kemp (R-GA) is not backing down in the face of woke corporations and activists who are critical of the common-sense voter reform bill that he recently signed into law. Georgia-based corporations including Delta Airlines and Coca-Cola have spearheaded the outrage about the bill, claiming that the provisions will suppress voting accessibility."  . . .

Georgians - and all Americans - should fully understand what the MLB's knee-jerk decision means: cancel culture and woke political activists are coming for every aspect of your life, sports included. If the left doesn’t agree with you, facts and the truth do not matter.

 Trump Calls for Major League Baseball Boycott for Caving to 'Radical Left Democrats'

The Atlanta Braves responded to the MLB’s decision to remove the events from the state by saying it was not the Braves’ decision “nor our recommendation and we are saddened that fans will not be able to see this event in our city.”

“Unfortunately, businesses, employees, and fans in Georgia are the victims of this decision,” the team added.

Joe Biden Fails to Condemn Capitol Attacker   "Soon after reports started spreading on social media about the attack on the Capitol Friday that left one U.S. Capitol Police officer dead, many rushed to the conclusion that the attacker was a white, QAnon-following, Trump supporter, and condemned the attack. Of course, the attacker was none of those things, and all those who jumped to politically convenient conclusions about the attacker wound up with egg on their faces.

"One person who waited until more information was available was Joe Biden, but, unlike those who condemned the attack after assuming a pro-Trump motive behind it, Joe Biden couldn’t find it in himself to condemn the suspect.

“ 'Jill and I were heartbroken to learn of the violent attack at a security checkpoint on the U.S. Capitol grounds, which killed Officer William Evans of the U.S. Capitol Police, and left a fellow officer fighting for his life,” Biden said in a statement. “We send our heartfelt condolences to Officer Evans’ family, and everyone grieving his loss. We know what a difficult time this has been for the Capitol, everyone who works there, and those who protect it.”

“ 'I have been receiving ongoing briefings from my Homeland Security Advisor, and will be getting further updates as the investigation proceeds,” Biden continued.

"Not a single word condemning the attacker, Noah Green." . . .

When Everybody Is a White Supremacist

Jeffrey Folks   

Democrats march in Washington

 . . . "The white supremacist rhetoric opens up a slippery slope whereby eventually one may be charged with racism simply for the "crime" of being white, and certainly for the crime of being a Southern white.  Kamala Harris played the race card in her primary debate with candidate Joe Biden.  Just because he was a white male who had opposed busing, on legitimate grounds, he was deemed a racist.  Presumably, she could not have made that charge against a black who had opposed busing, as many did.  Then, during the campaign, she repeatedly suggested that President Trump was a white supremacist or had ties to or sympathized with white supremacists.

"One assumes that V.P. Harris does not now consider President Biden a racist — not, at least, until it becomes politically expedient to do so.  At that moment, perhaps when she wishes to remove him from office, she might play the race card again.

"For now, Harris confines her accusations to anyone else who gets in her way.  Her comparison of ICE to the KKK introduced white supremacy rhetoric into the discussion of the border crisis.  Other situations are perfectly suited to the white supremacist charge.  The retrial of George Floyd's killer, the shooting of Asian-Americans in the Atlanta area, resistance to the expansion of federal gun control laws after several recent mass shootings — those who oppose the left's script are immediately characterized as white supremacists.

Obama and Noah Green had Farrakhan in common

 Even CNN would have had a hard time explaining Obama's cozy relationship with a man who, among other offenses, casually referred to Jews as "termites" and to Judaism as "the synagogue of Satan."

 Jack Cashill   "For about an hour on Good Friday afternoon, 25-year-old Noah Green, the perpetrator of a lethal attack on the nation's Capitol, found himself the day's designated white supremacist.

"Once the truth emerged that Green was, in fact, not only black, but also an ardent supporter of Nation of Islam honcho Louis Farrakhan, one could all but hear the sound of tweets being deleted across America.

"The late Mr. Green was in good company.  Perhaps the most celebrated FOF, Friend of Farrakhan, was that guy who lived in Calypso Louie's Chicago neighborhood, Barack Obama.  The fact that Obama participated in Farrakhan's 1995 "Million Man March" caused minor problems in the 2008 presidential campaign.

"Obama, however, would have had major problems had not one particular journalist come to his aid, unapologetically at that.  The helpmate in question was photographer and occasional National Public Radio (NPR) commentator Askia Muhammad." . . .

A journalist has revealed a 13-year-old photo of Barack Obama posing with the Nation of Islam's leader that was kept under wraps in order to protect the former president's career.   TD has seen this and used it for years.

Controversial picture of the President with the Nation of Islam leader that was kept secret for 13 years is revealed  . . . "A journalist has revealed a 13-year-old photo of Barack Obama posing with the Nation of Islam's leader that was kept under wraps in order to protect the former president's career. Askia Muhammad snapped the photo of Obama smiling alongside Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan during a Congressional Black Caucus meeting in 2005. Muhammad, who revealed the photo on Thursday, told the Trice Edney News Wire that he 'gave the picture up at the time and basically swore secrecy' out of concern that it could have 'made a difference' and damaged Obama's political future. The former president was an Illinois Senator at the time the photo was taken." . . .

Maxine Waters and her constituents have no problem with Farrakhan:

Capitol Attacker Identified, and the Left Won't Like This  . . . "No motive has been established yet, but almost immediately after reports of the incident appeared on social media, the Left immediately started to blame Donald Trump and the Capitol riot in January for the incident.

"According to the suspect’s now-deleted Facebook page, he was definitely not a Trump supporter.

“Peace, friends, family, enemies, and the like,” Green wrote in a Facebook post in March. “To be honest these past few years have been tough, and these past few months have been tougher. I have been tried with some of the biggest, unimaginable tests in my life.
