Biden called out as JERK after STUPIDLY joining hands with Nadler on ‘racist preparation’ act

 

Vernon Jones, Running for Georgia Governor, SLAMS ‘Wicked Witch of the South’ Stacey Abrams  "Georgia Democrat-turned-Republican Vernon Jones announced he is running for governor of the Peach State against “RINO” Gov. Brian Kemp, “who cost the state two U.S. Senate seats and President Trump’s election.”

"Jones, who supported former President Trump for reelection, told the Todd Starnes Radio Show Wednesday he will fight for Georgians if elected in 2022.

"“Georgia wants someone that will stand up to the Left. I’m not afraid of Stacey Abrams. They can’t play that card on me. I look forward to playing that match with her,” Jones told host Todd Starnes.

"The former Democratic state lawmaker slammed Kemp for making an agreement with Abrams after she lost the gubernatorial election “that gave Stacey that open season to bring about fraud in our election process.' ” . . .

Cooking hub ditches beef, ripped for ‘virtue signaling’

An idea from A O-C, right? 

NY Post  "Conde Nast food publication Epicurious announced it’s ditching all beef-related content as a pro-planet effort to promote sustainability and the movement is gaining some serious backlash from critics.

"The Wall Street Journal released an editorial Wednesday criticizing the magazine’s decision to axe the bovine content and argued it will not solve climate change.

" 'Virtue signaling over red meat won’t make a difference on climate change,” the Journal editorial board writes. “The editors concede as much, writing that ‘individual actions like choosing alt-meat—or mushrooms, or chickpeas—instead of the real thing can feel so small they’re essentially pointless.’”

"But according to Epicurious editors, ditching beef will give readers a leg-up in political preoccupations – a perspective WSJ considers a “progressive prod.”

“Addressing climate change requires legislation, international cooperation, and buy-in from the corporate sector,” Epicurious’ David Tamarkin and Maggie Hoffman write. “Every time you abstain from beef at the grocery store or a restaurant, you send a signal—to the grocery store, yes, but also, and perhaps more influentially, to whomever you talk to about your decision.”

"Fox News contributor Rachel Campos-Duffy took to Twitter on Tuesday to publicly express her disapproval of politics snaking its way into a simple hobby like cooking." . . .

Joe Manchin Just Says “NO” To D.C. Statehood Legislation

Legal Insurrection

"You know who is the most racisty racisty racist in America right now according to Democrats? That would be one Democrat Senator Joe Manchin, who just drove a stake through the heart of Democrat dreams to make the District of Columbia a State.

"Making D.C. a state would be unconstitutional, even with an attempt to carve D.C. into pieces and make one piece a state. So unconstitutional even John Roberts might switch sides and join the conservatives on the high court. But nonetheless, Democrats wanted to go there, perhaps hoping more threats from Chuck Schumer and Sheldon Whitehouse to go all insurrectionist against SCOTUS would work.

"But in order for it even to be in play legislatively, Democrats would need to bust the filibuster AND get all Democrat Senators plus the Vice President to vote for it. Joe Manchin has said he’s not busting the legislative filibuster, and today he said he’s also not voting to make D.C. a state, arguing that a constitutional amendment would be needed for that." . . . 

"DailyKOS, Joe Manchin Isn’t Complicated, He’s a Racist."

"

Edwin Hollins: What an idiot. ...Manchin is a racis

t fool."

  

Joe Manchin Puts the Kibosh on Democrats' Latest Hopes and Dreams  "With the 50-50 split we currently have to endure in the Senate, Republicans are once again having to rely on a select few Democrats to remain somewhat sane. That has boiled down to Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin becoming the bulwark against all sorts of left-wing hopes and dreams, with the most visible one being the filibuster that requires 60 votes on most legislative items." . . .

Manchin is also correct that it would require a constitutional amendment. It’s actually one of the clearest things the founders laid out in writing, i.e. that the federal district must not be a state. 

Will We Keep Our Republic?

 John Green   "Ben Franklin famously said, "You've got a republic, if you can keep it."  That warning is particularly haunting now, because we seem on the verge of losing it — not from foreign invasion, not from revolution, but because we stopped caring about it.

"America was founded on the principles of individual liberty and equal treatment under the law.  These are the foundational principles required for equality and prosperity.  Yet we've been creeping away from those principles for many years.  In the last 12 years, that creep has become a sprint.  The world's beacon of freedom is dying, and we're acting as if trading liberty for "safe spaces" is a great deal.

"The press has become the propaganda ministry.  These people no longer report the news.  Instead, they craft narratives.  Many of those narratives seem designed to create civil unrest — playing Americans against one another.  Apparently, hatred and riots are good for ratings.  Consumers of this "news" no longer have an accurate picture of what's happening in politics or society.  They're simply pawns playing their parts in the script.

"Our schools have become little more than re-education camps.  They're no longer preparing our children for adult life.  Math, science, and reading have taken a back seat to Critical Race Theory and intersectionality indoctrination — and our children's test scores show it.  Schools don't teach critical thinking or value differing views.  They're demanding conformity with their chosen ideology.  The generation that is just now approaching adulthood, doesn't understand the importance of individual liberties and doesn't seem to care.

"Our Legislative Branch has stopped debating.  Speaker Pelosi would rather tear up speeches than have an open discussion with those she disagrees with.  Her priority is insider trading of Tesla shares, not actual leadership.  Maxine Waters would rather encourage the rioters than talk about the root causes of societal issues.  When it comes to legislation, we're simply told, "We have to pass the bill to find out what's in it."  Our rulers just want us to shut up and accept whatever they intend to do.  They're no longer representing their constituents.  Yet somehow, they all manage to become wealthy after a few years in office." . . .

“From whence shall we expect the approach of danger? Shall some trans-Atlantic military giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never. All the armies of Europe and Asia...could not by force take a drink from the Ohio River or make a track on the Blue Ridge in the trial of a thousand years. No, if destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men we will live forever or die by suicide.”

Portland’s Pusillanimous Mayor; Ted Wheeler and Portland deserve each another.

"In August 2020, then-President Donald Trump offered to assist the Democratic mayor of Portland, Oregon, in putting down the nightly riots that had ravaged his city for more than 90 days. Given this choice between ending the systematic violence and arson that was wreaking havoc throughout his city and publicly signaling his virtue, Mayor Ted Wheeler chose the latter. While the residents of Portland hid in their homes to avoid the violence, he responded to Trump’s offer with a sanctimonious letter that included this delusional passage: “No thanks. We don’t need your politics of division and demagoguery.” A week later, Portland police declared a riot and arrested 59 people.

"Fast forward to last Friday. Mayor Wheeler, having survived countless calls for his resignation and somehow managing to get reelected in November, is still presiding over a continuous wave of riots and is reverting to the same ineffective tactics that failed so spectacularly last summer. One of these brainstorms was to ask the city’s hapless residents to help put a stop to the destruction without offering any suggestions as to how that might be accomplished. Now that the “mostly peaceful protesters” continue their rampage and the city is still aflame, Wheeler is again asking Portland residents to do the job that neither he nor his acting police chief are willing to do. The Oregonian reports:

Portland’s mayor and acting police chief on Friday urged the public to safely stand up to the black bloc group of violent demonstrators who continue to plan “direct actions” around the city that routinely end with shattered windows, fires and other vandalism. Wheeler asked residents to note the license plates of people who drive to the events in various neighborhoods and then don all black clothing and grab shields or weapons from their cars. Share those license numbers with police.

"This is too little, too late, as was Wheeler’s declaration of a citywide “state of emergency.” The man just isn’t taken seriously by Portland’s residents or the rioters. " . . .

Battle of the speeches: Joe Biden and Rep. Tim Scott

 Here’s Why the Left Is Lying and Crying About Tim Scott’s Speech   . . . "Either way, you have probably seen the utter vitriol that the hard left is directing toward Sen. Scott for being depraved enough to be a black conservative lawmaker. And why are these brave and virtuous souls upset with Scott?

"Because he dared to do what far-leftists have found to be overly challenging: Take a sensible approach towards the conversation on race.

"During his rebuttal, Scott savaged the woke theology practiced by too many on the far left. He recounted some of the racism that he experienced even as a sitting United States senator, acknowledging that racial bigotry still exists in the country. He even brought up examples of leftists attacking him with racial slurs. But he also stated that despite this being a reality, America is not an overall racist nation." . . .

"It’s the unspoken Biden formula,” reports Axios. “Talk like a rosy bipartisan; act like a ruthless partisan.”

If anyone truly thinks that Biden is “boring,” it is because, having been intoxicated by the Trump Show, they are looking only at this president’s style. One hundred days into Biden’s presidency, and there is scarcely a single part of American life that the man isn’t trying to change.

Sen. Tim Scott lifts a rock off the Democrats, revealing the evil that dwells in that party

The Ugly Reaction to Tim Scott’s Speech Is Telling 

. . . And Scott never alleged that racism was nonexistent in America. To do so would be absurd. Scott wrote a police-reform bill, in fact, and Democrats such as

Harris, Chuck Schumer, and Dick Durbin shut down debate using the filibuster, which they now call a “relic of Jim Crow.”    More here...

 "View Hag Joy Behar Says She Doesn’t Think A Black Man Understands What Racism Really Is Like In America…"  'The View' Joins the Chorus in Racist Attacks Against Tim Scott  "The ladies of "The View" aren't exactly bastions of unique or intelligent arguments. So when they joined in on the bandwagon going after Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) for being chosen to give the rebuttal to President Joe Biden's joint address before Congress, it wasn't exactly surprising. It never gets less disgusting, though." . . .

Tim Scott Defends Georgia Voting Reforms in the Face of Biden's False Narrative . . . "Scott also correctly pointed out that Democratic outrage about the new law is selective; under Georgia’s reforms, voting is more accessible than in blue states, including New York." . . . 

FL. Rep. Byron Donalds Agrees: The Left is the Enemy of Black People . . . "Republican Florida Rep. Byron Donalds spoke to the Daily Caller about the Left’s outrage and racist rants against South Carolina Senator Tim Scott’s Republican response to Biden’s State of the Union address.  . . . It still has not gone well, which is why people are apoplectic over Sen. Tim Scott’s response. Scott called out the failure and hypocrisy of the white Leftist packaged within supposed “helps”.

Uncle Tim?  "Historically, giving the out-party’s response to a president’s speech to a joint session of Congress has been a thankless task. That is, in part, because the out-party’s response, typically delivered to a camera in a more or less empty room, looks lame compared to the excitement in the House chamber.

"Last night may have been different, however. Joe Biden’s snoozefest generated no excitement in the near-empty House, and Senator Tim Scott, delivering the GOP’s response, hit back on the central point the Democrats want to press: Scott denied Biden’s claim that America is a “systemically racist” society." . . .

Tim Scott Faces Heinous Racist Attacks For Telling the Truth  . . . Talbert Swan, a Canadian bishop and the president of Greater Springfield NAACP in Massachusetts, delivered perhaps the most nasty attack.“Uncle Tim Scott has perfected the art of sycophantic bootlicking,” Swan tweeted. “He’s a master step n fetch it artist and cunning white supremacy apologist, who demonstrated his buck dancing skills in front of the entire world.” . . .

"Adam Ford, founder of The Babylon Bee, arguably gave the best response to this attack: “As this ‘pastor’ so colorfully illustrates, ‘antiracism’ is nothing more than actual racists discovering a way to shout their racism in civil society without being silenced … because it allows them to accuse anyone who disagrees with them of racism!' ”

Dems Committed To Utterly Destroying Black Man’s Optimism About Race Relations "In the wake of a black man from the South expressing optimism about race in America, outraged liberals across the nation are doing everything in their power to crush that kind of positive thinking before it really gets out of hand.

" 'Look, black people are great and all, but they aren't allowed to disagree with us," explained Senator Chuck Schumer. "It's pretty simple. Any black person who has the nerve to disagree with us is just a dumb puppet for white people. Or, as our great President once said, they aren't even black! Now, we need liberals everywhere to remind Senator Scott that America is terrible and there is simply no way for black people to succeed without the graces of kindly Democrats. Leftist mob - assembllllllllle!"

"White progressives answered the bell, crashing the airwaves with messages touting their unmatched racism. "How could a silly Senator say something like that?" laughed Jimmy Kimmel as he finished cleaning off his blackface. "I know so much more about racism than a black man from the South, especially one whose grandparents picked cotton. Don't worry, I'll perform a hilarious monologue for white liberals about how dumb it is for a black man to think our country is good - that will really put him back in his place!"

Media: the only good Republican is one who becomes a Democrat

 Sneaky little media tricks: Presenting Joe Biden's tax-and-spend speech as a hit with the public . . . "The problem is that the CBS/YouGov poll sampled an audience that was hugely skewed Democrat.  Fifty-four percent of the audience was Democrat, while only 34% of American voters identify as Democrats, as CBS noted lower, way lower, down in the story.

"A president's political base is always going to have a positive response to its leader.  If it doesn't, then that becomes actual news.  Biden's leftist base loves him is the story here, although they didn't put it that way.  What exactly was news about this?

"Oversampling of Democrats is a growing problem with publicly released polls (not internals, of course, where party operatives privately need to know the actual truth of things).  That has led to continuous reports about Democrats and their bad proposals being far more popular than they are.  These slanted polls amount to propaganda for the Democrats rather than news." . . .

Ian Macfarlane

Media Enamored with Biden’s Speech, Disgusted by Tim Scott’s  "The media's adulation of President Biden was in full display after his first joint address to Congress Wednesday night. MSNBC's Brian Williams drew attention multiple times to the president's "extraordinary use of voice modulation." CNN's David Axelrod equated the speech to President Roosevelt's fireside chats." . . . And MSNBC's Nicole Wallace along with the always upbeat Joy Reid both condemned the address.

Meghan McCain calls out ‘rigged’ media, throws ‘The View’ under the bus for burying Hunter Biden scandal  . . . "Almost sounding like she’s joined up with Team MAGA despite her animosity toward the ex-president, McCain went on to imply that The View was among the many corporate media outlets that buried the various sketchy activities of Hunter Biden, with slack that they never would have given to the Trump siblings.

“ 'What I have found interesting working in what I consider liberal media is not the stories we talk about, but the stories that we don’t talk about. There’s been a lot of stories — like, for example, we’ve never talked about Hunter Biden as a hot topic on this show, whereas Ivanka Trump or Donald Trump Jr. coughed in the wrong direction, it probably would have taken up the first two blocks.

"She then touted The Federalist website co-founded by her husband Ben Domenech (who is getting a tryout as host of Fox News Primetime) because it provides some degree of ideological diversity." . . .

“You think Jim Acosta isn’t an activist. I don’t have any trust in people on CNN anymore. So I take such umbrage at this entire concept that liberal media which runs all of media, all of tech, all of entertainment, all of music, all of culture, all of politics, all three branches of government — I’m supposed to feel bad because there’s two things from Fox News that have been inaccurate.

Viewership for Biden’s SOTU Way Down From All Four of Trump’s Addresses  "President Joe Biden gave his first address to a joint session of Congress Wednesday night. But, as expected, he filled it with hollow “unity” rhetoric, promises of an even bigger federal government, higher taxes, stifling regulations, and pretty much everything you’d expect from a President whose strings are being pulled by the radical left." . . .

Kamala Harris and Tim Scott Agree U.S. Not a ‘Racist Country.’ Only One Is Treated Like a Complete Idiot 

 . . . "The concept both he and the vice president are speaking to draws a basic distinction: acts of racism can run through a country’s history and still demand attention – and condemnation – today, without the country itself being fundamentally racist in character. That’s one opinion, arrived at earnestly, and it shouldn’t be mercilessly mocked. But because Senator Tim Scott said it first, he was treated like a rube, a wretch, and, if the “Uncle Tim” phrase trending overnight on Twitter is any gauge, a race traitor.

Black Supremacy; The hate that dare not speak its name.

Frontpage

. . . "Patrisse Cullors is a racist whose sociopathic premise is: all cops are guilty and all black criminals are innocent. This is also the premise and rationale of all the riots and protests of the year just passed: White cops are racists, and blacks their innocent targets, even if they happen to be armed criminals resisting arrest. Through these ideological blinders, the Ohio event - a white cop rescuing an unarmed black teen about to be murdered by a knife-wielding black teen – was simply impossible. The fact that the knife-wielding black teen was shouting “I’m going to stab the fuck out of you, bitch” as she thrust a butcher knife towards her intended victim’s chest was just inconceivable. If white cops protected black victims from black criminals, the goal of abolishing the police could not be justified." . . .

Iran and John Kerry: the evil and the weasel

 Zarif Had No Knowledge of Israeli Strikes Until Kerry Told Him, Translation Reveals . . . "These details are likely to further fuel calls from leading Republicans for Kerry's firing or resignation. The New York Times reported that Zarif said on the tape that Kerry told him Israel launched 200 airstrikes against Iranian interests in Syria. The Times did not provide further details on that issue. But an independent translation of the audiotape commissioned by the Washington Free Beacon shows that Zarif went on to clarify that he had no prior knowledge of these Israeli strikes before Kerry told him.

" 'Kerry told me that Israel had launched 200 airstrikes against you [Iran]," said Zarif. "You didn't know?" asked his interviewer. "No, no," he replied.

"These new details contradict top State Department officials, who have repeatedly said the information was already in the public domain and not classified.

If you go back and look at press reporting from the time, this certainly was not secret, and governments that were involved were speaking to this publicly on the record," State Department spokesman Ned Price said on Monday during a press briefing.  . . .

 Iran's foreign minister's leaked revelations are eye-opening  "On Sunday, news broke that a private interview that Iranian foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif had with an economist had been leaked to a London-based Persian news service, which then shared it with the New York Times.  There are several interesting points to the conversation, with two of the most striking being (a) Javad's acknowledging that Trump's decision to assassinate Qassem Soleimani was a powerful strike against Iran and (b) a reminder of why the Biden administration is making a terrible mistake when it politicizes the American military.

"Regarding General Soleimani, Zarif effectively says Trump could scarcely have come up with a better way to damage Iran:

In the portions that were leaked, Mr. Zarif does praise the general and says they worked productively together in the prelude to the U.S. invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. He also says that by assassinating him in Iraq, the United States delivered a major blow to Iran, more damaging than if it had wiped out an entire city in an attack. . . .
