"The Biden regime is decoupled from both the past and reality, and quite capable of destroying Americans’ lives as they have known them.
"There used to be an agreed-on body of wisdom, which both Left and Right, Republicans and Democrats, generally accepted. Heated arguments and invective centered on implementations and methods of solving problems, which at least both sides agreed were problems. Both ideologies accepted a common core of wisdom, despite their radical differences in interpreting it.
"Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and especially Biden’s strange cabinet of loud Jacobin amateurs, reject the very hallowed knowledge upon which civilization is based. In that sense the public has begun to recognize them as nihilist and anarchist. Nearly two out of three Americans in some polls hold unfavorable views of the Biden Administration. They fear that it is decoupled from both the past and reality, and quite capable of destroying their lives as they have known them.". . .

"Yesterday, I covered the disturbingly viral video from President Joe Biden in which he didn't blink
for nearly 20 seconds as he made some digs at former President Donald Trump and blabbered on
about how "you can't be pro-insurrection and pro-cop, you can't be pro-insurrection and pro-democracy, you can't be pro-insurrection and pro-American." Well, as it turns out, there was more
footage, as our friends at Twitchy covered, and it contains sloppy cuts.". . .
. . ."A major complaint from the video published Tuesday afternoon was that the president didn't blink,
once. His voice also sounded croaky and hoarse though.
While Biden does blink in the raw footage video, his voice remains problematic. It even sounds like
he's slurring his words. "This law does so much more, it saves lives, including yours," he says at one
point. "It'll help you do your job, but it's just a start," he says at another.
The additional footage also gives deeper context to Biden referencing being "pro-cop," despite how
members of his party have supported defunding the police.
"Last week, I rolled out by Safer America plan, with a goal of doing three key things," Biden shared,
including "taking additional commonsense steps to reduce gun crimes and violence."
It's worth reminding that to the president, and Vice President Kamala Harris, "commonsense steps"
include a ban on so-called assault weapons, even though fellow Democratic lawmakers acknowledge
that's not practical.

Andrea Widberg "Kamala Harris attended a meeting with disability rights leaders and promptly made a fool of herself by announcing her pronouns and telling what color suit she’s wearing. By doing so, she was copying two obnoxious leftist trends and outing herself as a follower who can never be a serious leader.
"I don’t need to tell you about the “announcing of the pronouns” trend because that’s been sickening us for years now. Another less common trend is for speakers to describe a little bit about their skin and hair coloring and their clothes for the visually impaired. I have friends who are blind, and I find it difficult to believe that this brief description really matters to them for the simple reason that, by virtue of being blind, they inhabit a mental world that usually isn’t big on colors. Theirs is more of an auditory world than a visual one.
"These little announcements are pure virtue signaling, highlighting the speaker’s exquisite sensitivity. They're also a good way to force the issue of race on people who, by rights, don't need to be burdened by such considerations. (Just think of Dave Chappelle's brilliant black white supremacist shtick.)

Shouldn't America expect O'Rourke to resign on principle, seeing the damage Soros DA's are doing to American society? Beto, how many deaths are attributed to Soros and his money? TD
MSN "(Bloomberg) -- George Soros is throwing his financial support behind Democrat Beto O’Rourke as he seeks to become the next governor of Texas.". . .
. . ."Soros donated $1 million to the underdog’s Beto for Texas political action committee last month, according to filings released Tuesday by the Texas Ethics Commission. It’s tied for the largest-ever contribution to O’Rourke, along with $1 million donations each from Austin-based philanthropists Simone and Tench Coxe.
"Soros, a 91-year-old billionaire who frequently supports progressive causes, has been active in Texas politics before, for example contributing $500,000 last year to defeat a ballot initiative in Austin that would have forced the city to hire hundreds of police officers. Republicans including Governor Greg Abbott often paint him as an outsider seeking to impose liberal values on a deep-red state.". . .
"‘Beto’ is a Mexican nickname, but the Irish O’Rourke is not rejected for such cultural appropriation. After all, he looks vaguely like RFK, and that buys him a lot of tolerance. Expect him to do more silly things such as recording his dental exam or skateboarding across a stage. President Trump made fun of Beto’s habit of wildly waving his arms while speaking. As for the border walls, Beto wants to tear down those already in existence. Yes, he’s a lefty nut job and if you don’t vote for him, the world will end in 12 years.". . .
Those rioting over Dodds; do they also riot for no-kill animal shelters?
Andrea Widberg"The AP has a hair-raising horror story for leftists still reeling from theDobbsdecision returning the question of abortion to the states: Catholic hospitals are on the rise! Even in states in which abortion will remain legal, there are some regions in which non-Catholic hospitals are going under and the only thing left is those “eeeevil” abortion-free, contraception-limiting Catholic healthcare providers.
The article, entitled “Catholic hospitals’ growth impacts reproductive health care” focuses on Connecticut, where Covenant Health, a Catholic hospital system, is planning to merge with a non-Catholic hospital and healthcare system that’s unable to remain open on its own. For Democrats, the fact that Covenant Health won’t provide abortions is a problem:. . .
. . ."Even the AP must concede, though, that Catholic hospitals are not so dogmatic that they’ll let women die rather than perform an abortion. As Sister Mary Haddad, the CHA president explained in an email to the AP, if the mother “suffers from an urgent, life-threatening condition during pregnancy, Catholic health clinicians provide all medically indicated treatment even if it poses a threat to the unborn.' ”
Quote: Hundreds of thousands of people are fleeing California for states like Texas and Florida, but it's not always easy to adjust to life in an American state.
Let's look at the 10 biggest adjustments fleeing Californians have to make in their new states:
Strange wet stuff falls from the sky once in a while. Try not to drive your car into a pole when this happens. Take a deep breath. You will get through it.
People don't say "The" in front of highway names. If you're driving on I-10 in Texas, you'll feel the urge to say "The 10," but don't do it. It's wrong.
You can't wear flip-flops to church. Not even your "nice" Vans flip-flops. Put on shoes like an adult.
There's no need to call the police if you see someone with a gun strapped to their hip. It's OK. The guns can't jump out and hurt you, no matter what Newsom told you back in California.
"Bless your heart" doesn't mean "bless your heart." Well, it might mean "bless your heart," but it's a safer bet that it means "that person's weird," or "you're an idiot," or "I don't like you." Or, it's a simple ending to a statement you've made about someone that you don't want to feel bad about.
No one cares about your preferred pronouns. Go ahead and tell an old farmer in Oklahoma that you go by "they" pronouns. The look on his face will be worth it.
Man-buns are unacceptable in a professional setting. Or any setting.
You have to go into buildings without any kind of official warning that something inside there might cause cancer. You will just have to take the chance. Be strong. (My personal favorite.TD
The weather cycles from hot to cold and back again on an annual basis. Do not be alarmed. These are called "seasons."
You might have to make your own choices and take responsibility for your actions without the government taking care of you. This is the most difficult adjustment for Californians to make when they move to America, but with time, prayer (also acceptable in red states), and willpower, you can do it!
Those are just a few of the many adjustments ex-Californians will have to make. If you've thought of any others, please leave them in the comments below to help these poor communists to enjoy capitalism away from their homeland. End quote.
