Biden’s Bad Advice

Source; American Spectator   "Joe Biden reportedly aspires to become the next Franklin Roosevelt. He more resembles Elmer Fudd. He has precipitated a border crisis, lost America’s second war in 50 years, turned the COVID-19 response into a fiasco, and is blundering into blowing a bipartisan infrastructure bill that should have been a sure thing. Biden lacks two things that made FDR a successful president. First, he is remarkably tone-deaf to the mood of the American people. Second, he lacks the kind of sage domestic and military advice that Roosevelt enjoyed. No one is apparently saying to him, “Mr. President, this is a very bad idea.” A U.S. president needs people who can speak truth to power. On the domestic front, FDR had Harry Hopkins and his wife Eleanor; militarily, he had George Marshall. I am not celebrating Roosevelt’s political agenda, but I am pointing out that he generally got good counsel in furthering it. Biden apparently lacks people who have the gravitas or the moral courage to forcefully point out when he is wrong.

"Roosevelt was deft enough not to get out ahead of the American people on major issues nor to send the wrong political signals to the public, international friends, and potential enemies. There was apparently no one to tell Biden in January that his statements on immigration would send thousands of illegals flocking to the border. He got off to a bad start in messaging then and has doubled down since.

"Similarly, after declaring victory over COVID-19 in early July, Biden and his senior administration officials are now again wearing masks to all public events. Apparently, no one has asked, “who are we protecting?” and “what message are we sending?” Those Americans — me included — who have been fully inoculated did so with the expectation that the masks would come off.". . .

Between Afghanistan and Immigration, Have We Ever Had a Less Competent President?

 Jewish World Review

It's not clear if Biden is too out of it to manage America effectively or if his staff is too ideological to make sound decisions or both.What is clear is America is suffering through amazing levels of self-inflicted crises on Joe Biden's watch.

"There's always press coverage about Republican mismanagement or Republicans getting into trouble governing as ideologues, but you don't hear much about the reverse. There's a lot to critique about Republicans, but for mismanagement and for blindly putting ideology above all else, President Joe Biden may be the all-time champ.

"Biden campaigned as a pragmatist who could bring stability and national unification. His inaugural address was all about these themes. America needs some level of national healing more than anything else. Americans can't go on at each other's throats. The country is falling apart.

Biden deserved praise for starting his presidency with a message of healing. I did an entire column to compliment him for it.

"Since taking office, however, Biden has not made any effort to back up his pledge. He has governed not just as a wild-eyed ideologue but as an incompetent one, too. America is paying the price. If any Republican president tried to implement such an extremist agenda, the press would hammer it daily. The press likes Biden's left-wing policies, so they downplay the radical nature of what we are going through and cover the incompetence with a light touch, if at all." .  .  .

Key Trump defense official refutes Blinken, says Trump left Afghan withdrawal plan for Biden

The focus of the Trump administration's plan was to "peacefully negotiate yourself out of Afghanistan with a conditions-based withdrawal," Kash Patel said.

Natalia Mittelstadt     "Kash Patel, former chief of staff to Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller, blasted Secretary of State Antony Blinken for claiming that the Trump administration did not leave President Biden a plan for the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.

"On the John Solomon Reports podcast on Thursday, Patel was asked if Blinken accurately told Congress that Trump left Biden a deadline for leaving Afghanistan without a plan. "No, absolutely not," Patel replied.

"Criticizing Blinken for playing "politics with the national security apparatus of the United States," Patel, who worked on the transition coordination team, said that the Trump administration did not leave Biden a deadline.

" 'We actually did not leave them a deadline," he said. "It was a negotiation between the U.S. government, the Taliban, and the Afghans. And if that date was not to work for this incoming administration, they could have moved it.

" 'But what they chose to do was break the entire agreement. And then they thought, since the adults were back in Washington, D.C., and Blinken and Biden were leading the charge, the world will just fall into place for them. And they blew it in Afghanistan. So I think their credibility's shot when it comes to everything Afghanistan.' ". . . 

Panama official says Biden admin. was warned about mass migration from Haiti, 60k more coming

 Just The News

"Donald Trump lost the election so I'm giving it a try," says a Haitian migrant heading to the U.S. illegally 

"Erika Mouynes, Panama's foreign minister, says the Biden administration was warned in advance about thousands of Haitians heading to the U.S. 

"About 15,000 migrants recently arrived in Del Rio, Texas. According to the Department of Homeland Security, some were deported but the majority were released into U.S. communities while they await their asylum claim to be adjudicated.

"According to Axios, Mouynes said an estimated 60,000 more migrants are making their way to the U.S. Many of the Haitian migrants travel through Panama to get there. 

"There are also about 20,000 Haitian migrants in Colombia who are seeking to enter the U.S. 

"NPR reports that the Haitian migrants are in Necoclí, a beach that is currently at capacity due to migrants camping out there. According to NPR's report, "many" of the migrants waiting in Colombia think they have a "better chance" of staying in the U.S. under President Biden compared to former President Trump.". . . 

The Obamas Break Ground on the Nation’s Ugliest Presidential Library

The American Spectator

"The center will include three buildings in geometric shapes made of slate-colored stone. The museum is the dominant building. It stands at 180-feet tall and is in a neo-Brutalist architectural style. The center of it is wider than the top and bottom. It perhaps resembles the alien spacecraft from the 2016 film Arrival. Large parts of it are devoid of windows, but there are cutaway holes as well as integrated text from a speech Obama delivered on the 50th anniversary of the Selma to Montgomery marches.

"The two other buildings, the library and the forum building, are flat, rectangular buildings in a barebones modern style. 

"Obama has grandiose ambitions that the center will be a monument with imbibed meaning. 

"He said of the center, “We want them to go through the exhibits, the stories of my presidency, and say, ‘Oh, this is a part of me. This belongs to me.’”. . . 

If there were to be another government shutdown, would a Democrat President block access to this place in hopes of "making it hurt"? That was an Obama order at the last shutdown, you know?

Newsweek "Progressive Democrats have welcomed the delay in Congress' vote on the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill, which they say should be linked to the $3.5 trillion Build Back Better package. 

"The House of Representatives was due to vote on the bipartisan bill on Thursday, but the vote was postponed after late-night negotiations among the Democrats and divisions between progressives and moderates in the party.". . .

How is Tucker Carlson still alive?

He is taking on the most powerful, unethical, and brutal, the least religious, the most secular Washingtonians who have ever existed in our countries history.  Ever.  Yet Carlson still breathes today.  Somehow. 

Andrew W. Coy  "I for one am shocked that Tucker Carlson is still alive. I cannot believe that Tucker Carlson has not "committed suicide" with three bullets to the back of the head.  I'm stunned that a drunk hit-and-run driver (who was never found) did not kill Tucker Carlson in a car crash near Carlson's home.  And I'm a little startled that child porn wasn't "just found" on Carlson's laptop.

"In other words, I am very, very surprised that the Deep State has not taken Tucker Carlson out.  Maybe the angels are busy protecting him.  Maybe it's through God's grace, because Tucker is taking on the Deep State in a big and ferocious way.". . . 

. . . "Not sure what life and the future hold for Tucker Carlson.  Again, one only needs to look at Epstein, Rich, Trump, and the others to realize that it is a scary and a dangerous position to be in.  Being the unofficial spokesperson for the opposition is indeed perilous.  It is an awesome responsibility when you are leading the opposition against one of the most evil administrations in America history.  Yet Carlson still lives.  Here's to praying that the angels abound around Tucker and his family."

Biden Admin Still Pushing Whip Lie To Distract From Their Open Border Strategy And Policy Failures

 Legal Insurrection

The claim that border patrol agents on horses whipped Haitian migrants illegally crossing the border spread like wildfire, pushed by the media and Democrats. But it was a lie, not just disputed, an outright hoax.

On top of all the other evidence, the photographer who snapped the now-viral photo confirmed there was no whipping:

The photographer behind now-famous images depicting Border Patrol agents on horseback appearing to chase migrants with whips says things are not exactly what they seem when it comes to his photos. . . .

. . . "Not only were whips not used, the reason horses were used is because that’s how border patrol patrols in terrain that is rough. Horses were not even used in an agressive manner, there’s no indication anyone was injured.

"The whip lie should have died within hours, but it’s still going on, and its being spread by Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the head of DHS, Alejandro Mayorkas, all of whom explicitly or implicitly compared it to slavery.". . .

Vaccine Mandates: A Tale of Two Legal Battles     

"In August, a slew of healthcare groups gave their employees deadlines to take COVID-19 vaccines or face termination. Although these mandates on paper allowed for religious and medical exemptions, in multiple cases, when exemptions proved hard to come by, employees facing threats of termination resorted to lawsuits to hold onto their jobs.

"How did these lawsuits turn out, and who eventually submitted to the will of the other: the healthcare group or the plaintiffs?". . . 

Mo Brooks Cosponsors Legislation to Nix Federal Vaccine Mandates: Biden’s Move Is ‘Arrogant, Dictatorial, Despicable, Dangerous’  "Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) has officially cosponsored legislation offered by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), which would nix President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate, stopping the federal government from requiring employers to require vaccines or implement weekly testing programs.

“Joe Biden claims the U.S. Constitution empowers a president to mandate vaccines. He is wrong. Under the Constitution, states, not the federal government have that power,” Brooks said in a statement, challenging anyone to “identify a provision in the U.S. Constitution that unambiguously gives Joe Biden or the federal government the authority he arrogantly claims.”. . .

Democrats continue the push to persecute the unvaccinated  "Americans discovered on Wednesday that, on Saturday, Democrats had slipped something awful into their $3.5-trillion ironically named "Build Back Better Bill."  If the bill becomes law (and the only thing currently stopping it is that Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin are saying "no"), employers can be charged as much as $700,000 per unvaccinated employee.  This is madness.

"The Daily Mail had the story: . . . 

. . ."As the Democrats get more shrill and more vindictive, increasing numbers of people are going to assume that Democrats are acting from either insanity or malevolence.  Either is a terrible choice for a once free country's political leadership.

"That's my summary of what's going on here.  Tucker's is better:"

Brush Up on Your Voodoo!

Ann Coulter

[George Mason economics professor Garett Jones] asks whether immigrants bring cultural attitudes, religious beliefs, a work ethic, etc. that will kill "the golden goose of first-world prosperity." Phrased otherwise, do immigrants make "the countries they move to a lot like the countries they came from?"

"Great news! For the millions of U.S. immigrants who really wanted to immigrate to Haiti, but couldn't get in ... Guess what? The country you're living in is about to become Haiti.

"This will also come as good news to the GOP's top-dollar donors, whose sole political thought is: HOW DO WE WIN THE BLACK VOTE? (Next goal: Reverse the rotation of the Earth.)

"Apparently, it's absolutely humiliating for people who live in 100% white neighborhoods to belong to a party that appeals to white people.

. . . 

"With hordes of Haitians pouring across our border -- because a certain lying conman didn't build a wall -- this weird compulsion of the donors will only get worse. Before Republican geniuses start proposing "enterprise zones" for Haitians, maybe they should take a look at Haiti.

Haitian President Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier (1957-1971) began his regime by killing off or exiling the educated elite for being too light-skinned, then expropriated the peasants' small parcels of farmland, leading, like night into day, to mass starvation.

"Result: Haitian peasants adored him! Even after a regime of mass murder and widespread starvation,"...

What does "Red Pill" mean"

 What Does Red Pill Mean? | Slang by Dictionary.com  "Red pill refers to (becoming enlightened to) the truth about reality, especially a truth that is difficult to accept or exposes disillusions.

"Online, red pill is especially used among anti-feminist and white supremacist groups to refer to “waking up” to the truth that women and liberal politics are oppressing men and white people.

"WHERE DOES RED PILL COME FROM?

"Red pill comes from the popular and influential 1999 sci-fi action film, The Matrix. There’s a scene early on in the movie in which the main character, Neo, is offered two pills: a red one and a blue one. The red pill represents an awakening, but one that could be difficult and painful. Neo’s world will be changed uncomfortably if he takes the red pill, but he’ll be made aware of the truth of the world. The blue pill represents comfort and security. If he takes the blue pill, he’ll continue to live in blissful ignorance.

"The concept has a precedent in the 1990 science fiction film Total Recall. In that film, one character offers another a red pill, said to be a symbol of his “desire to return to reality.” There’s no blue pill presented, however."....
