Biden and his Walter Mitty dreams

 Joe's Walter Mitty tales

Is Biden finally taking Donald behind the gym? - American Thinker   "On October 21, 2016, when asked about then-candidate Donald Trump, then-Vice President Joe Biden said, “The press always ask me, don’t I wish I were debating him. No, I wish we were in high school; I could take him behind the gym.” Apparently, he prefers violence over debate. Those were the uniting words of the current occupant of the White House.

"With all the power of the federal government, the leftist news outlets, and the Democrat Party behind him, it appears Creepy Joe is finally ready to deliver on his unsettling promise. Was his raid on Trump’s home on August 8th his idea of keeping his promise, or was it just the first act of something far more sinister?". . .

Ilhan Omar’s Career Almost Ended In Shocking Fashion This Week

 The Lid (lidblog.com)

"Earlier this week, as our insular media was focused on congressional legislation, the Mar-a-Lago raid, and other campaigns around the country, most overlooked what occurred in Minneapolis Tuesday night. 

"Indeed the heavily-favored Ilhan Omar almost lost her primary race. The repugnant representative prevailed by fewer than 2,500 votes over a retired septuagenarian named Don Samuels.

"Because her district is hard left, Omar likely will still prevail during November’s general election, but is the template now out on how to beat the socialist in a future primary?

"Maybe Omar’s anti-Semitism no longer plays well in the most Jewish district in Minnesota, or maybe her anti-police bigotry no longer appeals to a high crime district that voted last year not to defund the police.

"Amid low voter turnout and disdain toward her noxious beliefs, Omar amassed only 50.3% of the overall vote and also barely totaled half of her vote total from two years ago.". . .

This Should Bring The Whole Case Down - The Feds Involved In The Trump Raid Allegedly Have Been Under Investigation By Durham For Abuse Of Power

 

This Should Bring The Whole Case Down - The Feds Involved In The Trump Raid Allegedly Have Been Under Investigation By Durham For Abuse Of Power (defiantamerica.com)   "Kash Patel, a former Federal Prosecutor and Department of Defense official under former President Donald Trump, has revealed a key flaw in the Biden Department of Justice’s claims following the FBI raid on Trump’s estate at Mar-a-Lago.

Patel explained that reports of classified materials found at the Palm Beach property aremisleading because the documents were already declassified.

“Trump declassified whole sets of materials in anticipation of leaving government that he thought the American public should have the right to read themselves,”

"But it seems that team Trump has more information!

"The left was coming after President Donald Trump, daring him to release the warrant regarding the FBI raid on his home.

"Trump isn’t blinking. He’s not acting like someone who thinks he has a lot to fear from this. He announced he was all for releasing the warrant, and he now he’s commented on how the raid was completely unnecessary. He had been in talks with the National Archives for a while and had already turned over several boxes of documents in June. So that’s why the raid isn’t making logical sense.". . .

CNN admits Hunter Biden ‘a real problem’ for Joe Biden, not ‘a right-wing media story’

Then Stelter added: “What about his son, what about Hunter? Hunter under federal investigation, charges could be coming at any time. This is not just a right-wing media story. This is a real problem for the Bidens. Could he decide not to run for re-election, given his son?”   Just The News

 CNN's Brian Stelter flip-flops on Hunter Biden story (nypost.com)   "Looks like CNN’s Brian Stelter got the memo from the network’s new owners about discussing ‘facts’ — even when it relates to the once-taboo subject of Hunter Biden.

"The “Reliable Sources” host did a major 180 about the scandal-scarred son of President Joe Biden, and the federal investigation related to emails found on Hunter’s laptop, during his show on Sunday.

"Hunter Biden may face charges as the federal criminal investigation continues into possible tax fraud, money laundering and foreign lobbying crimes linked to his overseas business deals.

"Stelter — who had called the Hunter Biden leaked laptop a “classic example of the right-wing media machine” — broached the subject in an interview with Michael LaRosa, the former press secretary for First Lady Jill Biden.

“ 'What about his son?” Stelter asked his guest. “What about Hunter? Hunter under federal investigation, charges can be coming at any time, this is not just a right-wing media story. This is a real problem for the Bidens.” . . .

The Tragic Irony of the Rushdie Stabbing at Chautauqua

 The Tragic Irony of the Rushdie Stabbing at Chautauqua - American Thinker

. . ."I set the climatic scene of 2006 at the institution itself. The book tells the tale of a grassroots “rising” that anticipated the Tea Party insurgency of 2009-10 and the MAGA movement of more recent years. When I wrote the book I was unaware that a quiet insurrection was brewing on the institution grounds. A group known as Chautauqua Christian Fellowship (CCF) had emerged to correct the Institution’s political and theological leftward drift.

"The same year that my novel was published, 2000, the institution accelerated that drift by selecting the Rev. Joan Brown Campbell to be its director of religion. A longtime apologist for Fidel Castro, Campbell had made news the year before her appointment by orchestrating the forced return of Elian Gonzalez to Communist Cuba. At the time of Campbell’s retirement in 2013, one of her woke acolytes toasted Campbell, saying, “When Janet Reno is looking for someone really tough to get on the [Elian] case you have some sense of whom we are dealing with here. Don't Mess With Joan.' ”. . .

“If Salman Rushdie can be attacked by Islamic extremists in the West, ANY CRITIC OF ISLAM can be” (barenakedislam.com)

Iran finally gets Salman Rushdie's blood - American Thinker  . . .Andrew Wylie, Rushdie's literary agent, later stated how grievously wounded Rushdie had been: "The news is not good.  Salman will likely lose one eye; the nerves in his arm were severed; and his liver was stabbed and damaged."  Injury to Rushdie's liver alone explains all the blood.  The liver is like a giant sponge and, when lacerated, bleeds profusely, with the flow difficult to stanch.

"What happened to Rushdie is appalling, but it's to be expected when a totalitarian power encourages fanatics to police any ideas that threaten that power.  We're not there yet in America, but we are drifting closer.  For example, after the Supreme Court returned the question of abortion to the states, various leftists threatened to kill Supreme Court justices — and the Democrat party, from Biden on down, refused to criticize these statements.  That tacit approval ended with a deranged so-called "transgender" man allegedly planning to murder three conservative justices, starting with Brett Kavanaugh.". . .

Liz Cheney down 28 points against Trump-backed challenger, even with help from Democrats

Just The News    "Wyoming Republican Rep. Liz Cheney trails her Trump-backed challenger by nearly 30 points in a recent poll, even including likely Democratic crossover voters.

"Cheney, one of ten Republicans who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump, lost her position as chair of the House Republican Conference over the vote and went on to participate in the Democrat-led committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol Riot.

"The University of Wyoming’s Wyoming Survey and Analysis Center conducted the poll, which revealed that Cheney enjoyed the support of 28% of likely voters in the Republican primary, set to take place on Tuesday, Aug. 16. Her Trump-endorsed opponent, Harriet Hageman, meanwhile, took 57% of the vote.

"Those figures include both independents and Democrats who identified themselves as likely voters in the Republican primary. Of those polled, roughly 8% of respondents identified as Democrats who planned to vote in the GOP race, while a further 21% were independents.

"Cheney maintained a narrow 43%-41% lead among the latter group over Hageman, and received an overwhelming 98% of Democratic support, though their minimal presence suggests the crossover aid will not be enough to carry the day for her. Only 15% of Republicans in Wyoming plan to back Cheney.

“ 'There has been much talk in the media about Democrats crossing over and voting in the Republican primary; this group is not especially large,” said UW political science Prof. Jim King.

"Cheney launched her cross party appeal in late June, posting information on her campaign site explaining how to change parties and vote in the primary."

Van Jones: ‘Biden Is Doing Great, Just Erase the Past Six Months’

CNN's Van Jones: Joe Biden's Presidency Has Been Great If You Just Remove All the 'Nutty' Stuff (townhall.com)  "

We may disagree with most of what Van Jones says. That’s a given, but the man is more intelligent than this. What the hell was he thinking regarding these remarks about Joe Biden and his presidency? No one asked him to use the defibrillator pads. This presidency is dead. The time of death dates back to that bungled and humiliating withdrawal from Afghanistan a year ago. It’s been downhill since the fall of Kabul. We’ve been dealing with COVID variants, which Biden said he’d lock down if elected. He didn’t. We have high inflation, volatile gas prices, the supply chain crisis, the baby formula circus, and an
immigration catastrophe. To top it all off, we’re in an economic recession. So, I get the Manchin-Schumer deal was a brief glint of good news. The package hikes taxes during a recession, but it’s the last stab for congressional Democrats to get a legislative win before the midterms. The problem is this bill comes way too late. The fate of the House is sealed; the GOP will retake it. The Senate could also swing back towards GOP control. Also, this new spending bill could collapse since Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) could torpedo the deal. It’s why it’s somewhat baffling that Jones said Biden’s presidency has been successful, but only if you remove the past six months of craziness (via Fox News):  . . .

 CNN political commentator Van Jones said President Joe Biden was doing a great job if you ignored “the past six months of nutty stuff.”

While discussing the Democrats’ $670 billion bill, anchor Jim Sciutto said:

“Let’s begin with this budget bill."

"There are still more hurdles, but the biggest hurdle was Joe Manchin, and until yesterday, nobody was talking about this deal being resurrected."

" 'It’s not all there, but it has pieces of the original Biden agenda. How important a move, how important a victory the Biden administration?”. . . 

Do The Political Elites Intend To Starve People To Death? –

 Issues & Insights (issuesinsights.com)   "Sri Lanka is the case study. Cruel and pointless green agricultural policy has caused a crisis of hunger, shortages, rising prices, a crippled economy, and violence. The country’s president and its prime minister were chased from the country, and have been replaced. It should be a lesson to the rest of the world. Instead, it’s more likely a preview of the future.

"What happened in Sri Lanka – “the systematic destruction of Sri Lankan agriculture by a regime so focused on appearing environmentally conscious that it blinded itself to the humanitarian disaster it was creating” – is also taking place in the Netherlands, one of the world’s top producers of farm products. There, policymakers have placed limits on agricultural waste emissions, which the eco-zealots are now at war with. The “tractor-riding rebels” understandably rose “up against their government.” What else should be expected when the rules could force as many as 30% of producers out of business?

"Farmers in Spain, Ireland, and New Zealand are also rising up. It’s more than enough for any open-minded lawmaker anywhere on Earth to look at these events and rethink the policies that have caused such turmoil. But not Justin Trudeau, Canada’s Boy Prime Minister, who like the rest of the immature left is fixated on making points with the “right” people, as if he never left high school. Despite the clear warning signs, he’s moving “ahead on fertilizer reduction as provinces and farmers cry foul,” the Toronto Sun has reported. There are factions that must be impressed.

"Gary Baise, an Illinois farmer and trial lawyer, recently wondered in Farm Futures if the U.S. will be the next country to adopt hunger and higher food prices as public policy.

Young women today are unlikable, which is very bad for society

  Bookworm Room

The tragedy of young women in 2022 is that they have been raised to be unpleasant and resentful.

"I was speaking with a young man who said that there’s no reason to get married. He’s not religious, so that’s not a tie that binds. He can get sex without marriage. There’s no social pressure on today’s young men to start a family as part of the maturing process. The young man added that there’s no reason to believe he’ll want to be with the same person for an extended period of time — and he pointed to the huge modern divorce rate.

"That last got me started thinking about what a marriage should be and why there are so many failed marriages. My thinking boiled down to two things: Niceness and biological differences. (I could easily come up with more, but this post is about those two things.)

"In the old days, there was absolutely no doubt that men and women were different. During their usually short married lives (because she died in childbirth and he died from overwork or accidents), she was dependent on him to support her during pregnancy and with young children, and he was dependent on her to continue his genetic legacy, which is a purely lizard-brain mental mandate.

"Monogamous marriage was his assurance that the children he was supporting were indeed his. That matters tremendously to men. Indeed, you only need to look to the fact that there is no more dangerous place for a young child than in a household that not only lacks that child’s biological father but that also is home to one or a series of boyfriends, none of whom have been socialized beyond their lizard brain. Many of those kids are brutally abused, often to death.

Over time — most notably after WWII when America became economically ascendant — two things happened: One, human lives ceased to be pure subsistence level existence and, two, people lived longer. That meant that people weren’t bound together by the struggle for food, the reality of babies, and the inevitability of imminent death.

"What then bound people? Well, I think that, early on, one of the things that kept relationships together was that women were raised to be nice to be around. Sure, as with all aspirational things, there was a gap between reality and aspiration, but for several decades, women were told that they were living a good life if they made a happy home with happy children. Meanwhile, their husband’s good love would occur if he were supported in his career and came home every day to a happy house filled with happy people. Again, I know the 1950s sitcoms put a gloss on this, but it was the cultural zeitgeist before the 1960s, and it was a zeitgeist that flowed naturally from the different roles and energy that men and women bring to a monogamous relationship.

"The 1960s and beyond told women, not just that they didn’t have to live that traditional role but also that the traditional role was demeaning and imprisoning. Women were taught that men weren’t their partners or the interlocking puzzle pieces of their lives, but were their enemy.". . .
