Yet for the most part, Colbert has treated Biden positively. Gutfeld has relentlessly mocked Colbert for this, saying last month: “I would not survive prison. I’d be one of the prizes in a card game. I’d become someone’s b***h faster than Colbert became Biden’s.”
"Greg Gutfeld’s acerbic wit and Stephen Colbert’s self-important satire have been locked in a ratings battle ever since Gutfeld! shocked the late-night world with its out-of-the-gate popularity 15 months ago.
"The competition has narrowed: When averaging the five weeks of ratings from June 27 to July 31, Fox News’ Gutfeld! beats out CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. It’s worth noting, however, that Colbert was on vacation for the first two weeks of July and ran reruns during that time.
"From July 25 to 31, Colbert drew an average of 2,076,000 viewers while Gutfeld got 1,879,200. The prior week, July 18 to 24, Colbert hit 2,143,000 average viewers while Gutfeld got 2,009,200. Often, even when Colbert isn’t on vacation, Gutfeld comes out on top.
"Colbert’s Late Show, which premiered seven years ago, has, for the most part, topped late-night ratings ever since surpassing Jimmy Fallon’s cratering Tonight Show in 2016. Colbert’s formula of Democratic cheerleading interrupted by occasional comedic jibes has proven to be a success. (Here’s an attempt at humor from Monday: “This weekend, the U.S. Senate finally approved a bill to fight climate change … Thank God. Finally. Thank God, we’re at least going to try to save the planet because that is where I keep most of my stuff.”) During the month of June, Colbert averaged 2,187,000 viewers while Gutfeld averaged 1,956,000. Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon trailed behind with 1,690,000 and 1,327,000 viewers, respectively.". . .

FBI agents raided Mar-a-Largo, former President Donald Trump’s Florida home, on Aug. 8, 2022, supposedly looking for federal documents that Trump might have taken with him after leaving office.
"Opposing the bill, the House Freedom Caucus noted that the IRA creates “an army of 87,000 new enforcement agents to target Americans with as many as one million more audits a ear on taxpayers earning less than $200,000—the same middle-class that suffers the most from Bidenomics’ skyrocketing inflation.” . . .
"Opposing the bill, the House Freedom Caucus noted that the IRA creates “an army of 87,000 new enforcement agents to target Americans with as many as one million more audits a year on taxpayers earning less than $200,000—the same middle-class that suffers the most from Bidenomics’ skyrocketing inflation.” The bill also allows the Secretary of the Treasury to bypass federal hiring guidelines and offer direct employment to job seekers, Anony Mee writes at the American Thinker, thereby ensuring that “only those who meet a political smell test get to participate in this new IRS enforcement program.”
"Meanwhile, for the past 10 to 15 years, various non-military agencies of the government have been stockpiling weapons and ammunition. Way back in 2017 Forbes reported that agencies like the IRS, the Department of the Interior, the Department of Agriculture". . .

If You Don't Get Why Trump Pled the Fifth, Listen to the Remarks of the NY AG – RedState "As we reported earlier, President Donald Trump invoked the Fifth Amendment when he was questioned during a deposition in New York on Wednesday in a civil case being pursued by New York Attorney General Letitia James.
“I once asked ‘if you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?’ Now I know the answer to that question,” Trump said in a statement. “When your family, your company, and all the people in your orbit have become targets of an unfounded, politically motivated Witch Hunt supported by lawyers, prosecutors, and the Fake News Media, you have no choice.”
"Folks on the left are already trying to spin that negatively against Trump. Even former prosecutor and lead impeachment counsel Daniel Goldman tweeted something that is just plain wrong. He should be ashamed he tweeted it and is misleading people who may not know better.". . .
"There are reasons we have rights. Lawyers particularly should be respectful of that — not putting down or denigrating the exercise of those rights or acting like taking the Fifth is a sign of guilt. Indeed, given all that has been leveled against Trump from multiple Democratic efforts, it is the intelligent and responsible way to proceed.
"If Goldman and others want to play that game, perhaps they’d like to explain why Hillary Clinton’s IT guy invoked the Fifth 125 times during the email investigation?
"Goldman is now running for Congress so perhaps he’s trying to appeal to the left with his tweet, but he’s just showing he has no principles with it.". . .
Cringe: Democrats repackage Doddering Joe in sleek new image as 'Dark Brandon' - American Thinker

. . ." Everything about him is a failure, and Biden himself often seems to know it. The inflation, open border, international humiliation, out-of-control crime, falling wages, supply chain failures, baby formula shortages, wokester lunacies, military recruiting deficits, and the grand sense from voters that the country is moving in the wrong direction are his legacy.

These Are the Republicans Who Voted to Confirm Merrick Garland (townhall.com) . . .In addition to all the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senators Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, John Cornyn of Texas, and Thom Tillis of North Carolina supported Garland's nomination.
"Then, on March 10, 2021, when Garland's nomination came before the full Senate for a vote, he was confirmed in a 70-30 vote.
" Again, in addition to every Democrat senator, a number of Republicans voted to make Merrick Garland the Attorney General of the United States.

If FBI goons can crucify a former president, no-one is safe: RICHARD LITTLEJOHN | Daily Mail Online
"This is how democracy ends. Or maybe, just maybe, how civil war starts.
"After the surgically-embalmed octogenarian Nancy Pelosi jetted into Taiwan to proclaim America's enduring commitment to freedom, back home FBI goons were staging a politically-motivated, prime-time raid on the home of her sworn enemy Donald Trump.
"As events unfolded on live television, it was like watching one of those old conspiracy-theory movies, starring Robert Redford or Gene Hackman.
"In the latest Hollywood-inspired version, Trump is this year's Enemy of the State.
"The FBI's stormtrooper tactics at Bad Orange Man's gaudy Mar-a-Lago compound in Palm Beach, Florida, could have come straight from the playbook of the Chinese Communist Party.
"Their risible excuse for this outrageous abuse of Trump's privacy and civil rights was a warrant issued by a federal judge in search of classified documents allegedly taken by the former President when he was evicted from the White House, screaming and kicking about a stolen election.". . .

Trump-Backed Candidates Sweep Board Day After FBI Raids Mar-A-Lago (breitbart.com)
AOC's district saw 57% increase in major crimes under tenure (washingtonexaminer.com) "Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (D-NY) district saw a 57% increase in major crime under her tenure, a new study found.
" 'Let’s just say, with those numbers: Were she a precinct commander, she’d better have some answers for the chief of department," Mauro wrote in an opinion piece.
"The former inspector dismissed anticipated criticism that the end of coronavirus lockdowns was the culprit for the increase because crime rates were consistently increasing while the lockdowns were underway. He tied the drastic increase to the $1.5 billion cut in funding for the NYPD in 2020, an effort Ocasio-Cortez spearheaded and lamented wasn't enough.
" 'Defunding police means defunding police. It does not mean budget tricks or funny math," Ocasio-Cortez said in a press release. "If these reports are accurate, then these proposed ‘cuts’ to the NYPD budget are a disingenuous illusion. This is not a victory. The fight to defund policing continues."
“ 'Ehh, I don’t talk about Trump all the time,” Jean-Pierre said in a snarky response.". . .
