Pope derides Biden's abortion views, Catholic self-identity as 'incoherence'

 MSN   "Pope Francis questioned President Biden's conscience on Tuesday in an interview during which he described the commander-in-chief's religious identity and views on abortion as incoherent.

"A month after conception, the DNA of the fetus is already there and the organs are aligned. There is human life," the pontiff said in the interview with Spanish-language outlet Univision.

Asked about Biden — a self-professed "devout Catholic" who supports blanket legalization of abortion on the federal level — the pope dismissed the president as incomprehensible. 

"A month after conception, the DNA of the fetus is already there and the organs are aligned. There is human life," the pope said in the Univision interview. "Is it just to eliminate a human life?"

UNITED NATIONS 'HAS NO POWER,' POPE FRANCIS SAYS

He added that Biden should instead question his own conscience and consult with his bishop.

"I leave it to [President Biden's] conscience and that he speaks to his bishop, his pastor, his parish priest about that incoherence," the pope remarked.

'The Bidens live a different life from the rest of us!' Hunter's former Venice neighbors are up-in-arms over a homeless 'tent city' that's taken over since he left and took Secret Service with him - as he moves AGAIN from swanky Malibu rental

 UK Daily Mail

"But since Hunter moved to Malibu, a 'tent city' of homeless people camping out on the sidewalk has sprung up again, prompting outrage among residents. Photos show tents, umbrellas, trash bags, camping chairs, blankets and shopping carts piled up, filling the width of the sidewalk and stretching down the Venice street where Hunter's former home sits. It has since been painted from white to black. DailyMail.com can also exclusively reveal Hunter has moved out of his $20,000-per-month Malibu home after just a year."


'They are there 24/7 which is a plus for us here on the Venice Canals. We need the extra security considering the amount of crime we have. Interestingly the homeless people who were living up along the street he now lives on are gone. 'It could be a coincidence or the city had them removed because of Hunter. I think his presence will help clean up the area and I hope he gets involved with the community. It's a tight community with great people.' But photos taken on the street this week show that since the First Son left the area it has regained its previous homeless encampment.


Joe Biden’s embarrassing first day in Israel




Joe Biden’s embarrassing first day in Israel   . . ."And then there was the big lie. Trump did two extraordinarily important things in the Middle East. The first was to curb the Palestinians’ outrageous demands. All past administrations, whenever the Palestinians said “no” to a good offer, sweetened the pot, encouraging Palestinians to continue saying “no.” Trump did something different. When the Palestinians said “no,” he started withdrawing things from the pot. If he’d had more time (i.e., his second term), he probably could have brought them to heel. Second, Trump initiated the Abraham Accords, from which Israel and her neighbors are continuing to reap benefits. This, too, withdrew things from the Palestinians. Trump essentially told the Arab nations that Israel was a more useful ally than the fractious, violent Palestinians. Thus, the Arab nations could do one-on-one trade and travel agreements with a functional nation rather than a terrorist state. Biden, instead of honoring Trump’s accomplishments and promising to build on them, outright lied because that’s what Biden does:". . .
Every time Biden opens his mouth, America’s enemies (and there are many) must lick their chops, while America’s allies (and there are a diminishing number) must shake in their boots. It is to be hoped that a successful midterm election, giving Republicans such a decisive hold on Congress that even RINOs listen to American voters, will rein in Biden’s more dangerous behaviors, whether in matters of policy or speech.

Barack Obama: Still a Racial Incendiary

Larry Elder


"Former President Barack Obama recently gave a speech in which he attacked the critics of "identity politics." At the June Copenhagen Democracy Summit Obama said: "I have little sympathy for reactionaries who cynically condemn identity politics or cancel culture when really all they're doing is trying to preserve existing privilege or excuse entrenched injustice, or bigotry. I mean, the original identity politics is racism and sexism and homophobia. That's nothing if not identity politics, and it's done a lot more harm than some tweet from an aggrieved liberal."

"Reactionaries"?

"Yes, that would be the same Obama who burst on the national scene by giving a rafter-ringing keynote speech at the Boston 2004 DNC convention where he denounced identity politics. Then-Illinois state Sen. Obama said: "There are those who are preparing to divide us, the spin masters and negative ad peddlers who embrace the politics of anything goes. Well, I say to them tonight, there's not a liberal America and a conservative America -- there's the United States of America. There's not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; there's the United States of America. The pundits like to slice-and-dice our country into red states and blue states; red states for Republicans, blue states for Democrats. But I've got news for them, too. ... We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America."' . . .

There's got to be lots of Biden buyer's remorse out there now

 American Thinker


The Biden administration has been a disaster from day one.  All sentient persons know it, even those in deep denial.

Before Biden became president, our economy was humming along, as it usually does.  To keep it working well, the main requirement was to keep out of its way and to keep bureaucrats and politicians in check.  Joe Biden did the exact opposite and we're all paying an enormous price for it.

The millions of Americans who voted for Biden cannot be surprised about how it's turned out.  Joe Biden had a fifty-year history of being an embarrassingly incompetent and corrupt politician.  His voters were willfully blind to that reality.  How many of them lament voting for him?

Anyone who voted for Biden-Harris enabled this disaster.  We are now saddled with two and a half more years of deliberate damage done by this administration.  The policy choices made thus far have been so harmful that even Democrats are looking for ways out.  However, there is no obvious way to end the destruction until 2024, thirty months from now.  A President Harris would just be more of the same.

Democrats and the media pretend there's still a possibility that Biden will run for a second term.  There is no way that will happen, but they have to go through the motions so as to keep him from being a lame duck this early in his first term.


Democrats ought to be furious at their party leaders, and many of them are.  Those leaders are responsible for Biden and Harris being in the White House.  Joe Biden was supposedly the best they had.  But he has been the worst president in our country's history, and all the other candidates would have been just as bad or worse....

There's No Way Joe Biden Survives This: Democrats Must Jettison Him BEFORE Midterm Season Heats Up

 

""As the Hunter Biden story continues to explode in scandal and scope, it’s becoming  to hide. Even if Fake News and Big Tech keep up their efforts to suppress it, it’s so vast and egregious that it’s going to erupt into a campaign issue in the fall — and Democrats can’t have that.

I previously predicted that party handlers would keep Biden in place until after the midterm elections, then use him as a sop for all the Democrat’s failure vibes before jettisoning him ahead of the 2024 election season. But now, I don’t think they can wait that long: Hunter’s laptop and iPhone disaster is ballooning out of control.

Ordinarily, we on the right would disregard a story like Hunter Biden’s leaked videos and communications because it’s too perfect. It’s got everything: hookers, drugs, dysfunction, and massive Biden family corruption straight up to the top. It validates everything the right has been saying so perfectly, it simply has to be fake. But, no: it’s real.

Besides being the juiciest trove of First Family dirt ever imagined, the scandal involves actionable evidence of crime, corruption, and compromise of the sitting President. Thus, Biden’s tenancy in the White House cannot stand, and there’s no way Democrats are going to leave him in office until Republicans gain control of the Congressional committees — impeachment and removal would be the least of their problems at that point. Their party’s reputation would be in the toilet for a generation.

Democrats are going to have to make their move before then, because picture campaign ads like this running in all the major markets this fall:

Mother Arrested in Police Raid at Home for Calling Transgender 'Man' on Twitter

Neon Nettle

Transgender 'activist' Stephanie Hayden complained to police
 that someone used their 'birth name' on Twitter. "their"?

"A mother was arrested in front of her three children during a police raid on her home after she "misgendered" and born-male transgender woman by calling them a "man" on Twitter.

"Kate Scottow was thrown in a jail cell for seven hours after three police officers raided her home in Hertfordshire, UK, seizing her laptop and smartphone.

"The 38-year-old mom of three from Hitchin was later questioned at a police station about an argument with transgender "activist" Stephanie Hayden on Twitter over so-called "deadnaming," which is when a person is referred to as their birth name rather than the name they choose to identify with.

"Mrs. Scottow had her photograph, DNA, and fingerprints taken following her arrest and remains under investigation by Hertfordshire Police for linking Hayden to a "former male identity.". . .

AOC Wants Chuck Schumer To Have The Senate Declare Gorsuch And Kavanaugh Liars

Who is the more mentally challenged: AOC or those who admire her?

Daily Wire

"Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) teamed up with Congressman Ted Lieu (D-CA) to issue a letter calling on the Senate to declare Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh liars.

"In the letter — which they addressed to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer — the pair claimed that both Gorsuch and Kavanaugh had lied to the Senate when they said during their respective confirmation hearings that Roe v. Wade was settled precedent.

“ 'Our Constitutional Republic cannot tolerate Supreme Court Justices who lied in order to get confirmed. The legitimacy of the Court is at stake,” Lieu tweeted, sharing a screenshot of the letter. “Letter from @AOC and me requesting the Senate to make a finding on whether Justices Kavanaugh and Gorsuch lied to the American people.' ”. . .

The fact that both Roe and Casey were “precedent” did not mean that they were necessarily constitutional or that they were not simply bad law, however. Plessy v. Ferguson — which allowed for segregation under the banner of “separate but equal” — was also precedent once, until Brown v. Board of Education reversed that. Korematsu v. United States — which allowed for the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II — was also considered precedent until it wasn’t.

Liz Cheney Funded by Top Democrat Donors for Republican Primary

Elites tied to Obama and Hillary Clinton funding GOP lawmaker's campaign



. . ."Democratic political elites are funding Cheney’s reelection bid in Wyoming’s Republican primary against Trump-endorsed challenger Harriet Hageman.

"Polling shows Hageman has taken a huge lead with the primary just around the corner.

"The American donor class is taking notice of Cheney’s shrinking chances of retaining her seat on August 16.

"Establishment donors are now coming out of the woodwork to protect one of their own as they fear Cheney may lose through a series of political miscalculations"

"One of the Democrats’ most prominent donors, film producer Jeffrey Katzenberg, who has funded Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton’s former presidential campaigns, has donated at least $43,000 to Cheney.

"The totality of the sum has not been disclosed for unknown reasons.

“We agree on little, if anything,” Katzenberg admitted in an interview with the New York Times.". . .



Trump May Have Already Settled On A Running Mate For 2024: REPORT

Daily Caller

"Former President Donald Trump is reportedly considering New York Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik to be his vice presidential nominee, should he make another run for the White House in 2024, multiple GOP sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

"Trump’s inner circle has allegedly begun to talk about Stefanik, the third-ranking Republican in the House and chair of the House Republican Conference (HRC), potentially joining the ticket, in part due to the belief he would benefit from selecting a woman, CNN reported.

“ 'There is a part of Trump who thinks he needs a female VP. He definitely likes her, likely because of how effusive she is to him,” a Trump advisor told CNN.

"Two of the sources said Trump has been asking friends and allies for their thoughts on Stefanik, believing she has shed her former moderate persona and become a prominent figure in the MAGA-wing of the party. (RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik Details Her Efforts To Have Liz Cheney Removed From Leadership)

“ 'President Trump thinks very highly of Elise Stefanik,” Chris Ruddy, a longtime friend of Trump, told the outlet. “She has been talked about in circles close to him as a potential vice presidential.' ”. . .

Democrats Increasingly Uneasy With Biden Reelection Bid; Party leaders and voters are looking for alternatives.

“His prospects for winning re-election appear to be bleak. With so much at stake, making him the Democratic Party’s standard bearer in 2024 would be a tragic mistake.” 

 The American Spectator     "Amid President Joe Biden’s sagging approval ratings, many Democrats are viewing a reelection bid with increasing skepticism. His fellow partisans seem to be looking elsewhere, motivated by dissatisfaction with the state of the country, fear that he is too old for the office, and mounting terror that he will be unable to defeat former President Donald Trump in a rematch.     

"The litany of problems engulfing the Biden administration needs no introduction: soaring inflationhigh gas prices, and a wide-open southern border. Many Democrats further charge that Biden has been ineffective at pursuing their left-wing policy goals, including the aborted “Build Back Better” bill, fighting against the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade, and restricting the Second Amendment. The president’s popularity is under siege from all sides; according to the RealClearPolitics polling average, his job approval rating stands at under 38 percent. 

"In a new poll released on Monday by the New York Times, only 33 percent of voters approve of Biden’s job performance, while 60 percent disapprove. Even among Democrats, 70 percent of whom approved of Biden’s job performance overall, there are significant signs of discontent. Just one-quarter of Democrats want the party to renominate Biden in 2024. Sixty-four percent said they would like a “different person.” 

"Of those Democrats who wanted a nominee other than Biden, the top reasons they gave were Biden’s advanced age and disappointment with his job as president. While desire for a new nominee spanned across demographic divides, younger voters were especially down on Biden: 5 percent of Democrats between the ages of 18 to 29 want him to be the nominee, while 94 percent want somebody else. Black voters, an instrumental part of the coalition that won Biden the nomination in 2020, are more favorable toward him. But even among them, 47 percent would prefer a new candidate.

"Democratic discontent with the president is also percolating in the highest echelons of his party.". . .
