Viral SOTU moment: Jill Biden kisses Kamala Harris’ husband
"On Tuesday night at the national Capitol, President Biden delivered his second State of the Union address, the first after he lost the majority in the US House of Representatives.
"Soon after, the moment of the two sharing a kiss went viral on Twitter, with several social media users passing remarks.
" 'Jill Biden just kissed Kamala Harris’ husband on the lips. Didn’t see that one coming,” a person wrote on Twitter. “Did Jill Biden just kiss Kamala’s husband on the LIPS?!,” another said.
" 'Sexy start to the State of the Union tonight with Dr Jill Biden and Kamala’s husband with a heck of a hello kiss,” wrote another.". . .

State of the Union Highlights Reel
.jpg)
"Despite MSNBC treating Biden's State of the Union address like the royal wedding, you probably didn't watch it. But it doesn't matter because ... I've got the highlights reel!. . .
. . ."LEAST BELIEVABLE CLAIM (This was a very competitive category!): Pointing out Tyre Nichols' parents in the audience, Biden said he'd never "had to have 'the talk' that brown and black parents have had to have with their children." And why would you, with a son like Hunter?
"You've probably heard me say this before, but I don't think "the talk" is taking. My evidence is this: Every famous case of a black person being killed after an interaction with police has NOT involved hyper-politeness on the part of the arrestee. E.g.:
-- Michael Brown (tried to grab officer's gun, refused to stop, then turned and charged at him);
-- Breonna Taylor (boyfriend was shooting at cops);
-- Daunte Wright (refused to be handcuffed, despite a warrant for his arrest, attempted to drive off with an officer dangling from his car window).
"MOST REFRESHING MOMENT: "Let's also pass the bipartisan Equality Act to ensure LGBTQ Americans, especially transgender young people, can live with safety and dignity."
"Finally, an American president courageous enough to support poisoning and mutilating confused adolescent girls.". . .
That claim about three Chinese spy balloons on Trump's watch is deflating fast
. . ."You know the press is going to be dining out on this for the next ten news cycles.There's just one problem, though -- the claim that Trump saw three Chinese balloons traverse through the U.S. on his watch and did nothing is ... deflating fast.
First, we have an explicit denial from someone who would have known.
According to the Daily Mail:". . .
. . ."So the whole story about Trump supposedly knowing about and ignoring the presence of three comparable spy balloons from China is falling apart fast. What's being described never happened, and what did happen was not like what happened this past week. It's just spin, another bid to give Joe Biden a public relations 'save' in the wake of the public relations disaster this balloon incident is amounting to, exposing both Joe's and America's weakness.
"This incident rather resembles the Liz Cheney-promoted lie that President Trump knew about Russian bounties on the killing of American soldiers in Afghanistan and did nothing. Or the one about Trump supposedly insulting the American war dead in Europe while he was on a trip there. Those stories, too, were debunked severely when the facts came out, and intriguingly, both also came from the Pentagon's lie shop.
"Now we are hearing this crap, which is falling apart like a busted balloon overhead overhead and waiting for the press to dine out on the scraps.
"Spare us this clown show. Trump never let balloons float overhead from China the way Joe Biden has. The claim is nothing but desperate leftist bunkum."

The mess of an address; UPDATED 2/10
He skipped over how he demolished U.S. deterrence abroad after the greatest humiliation in modern military history, with the flight from Kabul and the abandonment of billions of dollars in military equipment.
Victor Davis Hanson After listening to the State of the Union address, Americans know why the latest Reuters poll has President Joe Biden at 41 percent approval.
Vice President Kamala Harris polls even lower — despite the obsequious efforts of the most biased media in history that has, in effect, merged with the Democratic Party.
The nation was reminded again why only 37% of Biden's own party want him to run again.
Only a quarter of Americans believe the country is headed in the right direction under his leadership.
Given all that, what could a president possibly tell a nation when he entered office inheriting a 1.4% inflation rate only to spike it to 7%? How did Americans' 30-year mortgages of 2.7% soar to 6.5% in less than two years?
How does a president explain that eggs climbed to $7 a dozen, or a thin steak hit $15 a pound, or a sheet of plywood reached $95?
How does a president explain to Americans that gas averaged $2.39 a gallon when he took office and, even after draining the strategic petroleum reserve, it is still $3.50 a gallon — and recently spiked at $5 a gallon in many states.
Can Biden explain why once affordable, or even cheap natural gas more than tripled in price in less than a year?
What can a president say when in his first two years over 5 million foreign nationals poured into the United States — all illegally across a nonexistent border?
How could Biden explain the humiliation in Afghanistan? The draining of our arsenal of key weaponry? Or the inability to take down a communist Chinese spy balloon when it first brazenly floated above America — photographing military bases and missile sites as it crossed the entire United States with impunity?
We know the answers to all these questions.
Biden simply did on Tuesday in his State of the Union address what he always does: misinform, ignore, and attack!
Misinform. After sending inflation, energy, and interest rates to astronomical rates, and then seeing them momentarily taper off a bit, Biden declares that he "lowered" these indices that remain far higher than they were when he entered office.
He brags of a low unemployment rate. But Biden never discloses the better indicator of the labor participation rate that has declined under his tenure — or the fact he inherited a growing economy naturally rebounding on autopilot from a disastrous 2-year COVID lockdown.". . .

Idaho college murders: The complete timeline of events as of Dec. 5th
Idaho college murders: The complete timeline of events - ABC News (go.com)
Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen, inseparable best friends since the sixth grade, "died together in the same room, in the same bed," Steve Goncalves said at the vigil.
"More than six weeks after four University of Idaho students were mysteriously stabbed to death in a house near the Moscow, Idaho, campus, a suspect was identified and taken into custody.
"The four slain students were Ethan Chapin, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20, and Kaylee Goncalves, 21.
"Court documents -- including an 18-page affidavit -- released on Jan. 5 revealed how police zeroed in on their suspect: Bryan Kohberger, a 28-year-old criminology Ph.D. student at Washington State University, located less than 10 miles away from the University of Idaho.
"Here's how the case is unfolding:. . .
. . ."The roommate said "she looked out of her bedroom but did not see anything when she heard the comment about someone being in the house," the documents said. "She opened her door a second time when she heard what she thought was crying coming from Kernodle's room."
"The roommate "then said she heard a male voice say something to the effect of 'it's ok, I'm going to help you,'" according to the documents.
"The roommate said she opened her door again when she heard the crying, and she saw a man in black clothes and a mask walking past her. She stood "frozen" and in "shock," according to the court documents.". . .
Texas GOP Congressman Rips Biden Over Border Snub: ‘Insulting’
"Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales blistered President Joe Biden after the president excluded the congressman from a tour of facilities and spots on the U.S. southern border.
"Gonzales’ district, TX-23, covers a large swath of southwest Texas and includes more than half of the state’s total border with Mexico. The district stretches from El Paso County to La Salle County over 500 miles away.
"Biden’s team rejected Gonzales’ request to join the president’s entourage on Sunday as Biden met with local and Border Patrol officials in El Paso over the immigration crisis.
“ 'I find it insulting that President Biden blames space constraints for ignoring my request to accompany him on a visit to El Paso County, which I represent in Congress,” Gonzales told Fox News. “For two years, this administration has pointed fingers at Republicans for not wanting to act in a bipartisan manner on border policy.”
“ 'In contrast, by not inviting Republicans on this trip, specifically the Republican member who represents El Paso, it shows they are not willing to work across the aisle to fix the crisis at our southern border,” he said.
"A White House spokesperson said that Gonzales’ request was denied because of “space constraints” on the president’s company.". . .
Biden cleaning up "Trump's mess"? C'mon Man! Gaslighting made manifest
"Biden’s visit came after consistent backlash from Republicans and even moderate Democrats that Biden, as he continued to open the border further and encourage more illegal aliens to come into the country, refused to see the consequences of his actions in-person. Biden has repeatedly dismissed concerns about the border, claiming that there are “more important things” to do. However, the constant imagery of hordes of illegals flooding into the country, subsequently leaving behind damage and causing a rise in homelessness and crime wherever they go, has led to immigration being one of the major issues on which Biden is universally criticized by most voters."
"It might have taken him half a term, but President Joe Biden finally visited the country’s southern border. On Sunday, the president visited the U.S.-Mexico border at El Paso days shy of his second anniversary in office. He has either repealed or severely limited nearly every border policy put in place by his Republican predecessor.
"The trip was complete with all the hallmarks of a politician desperate to show face while aiming to avoid accountability. With his brief appearance, Biden meant to present himself as an assertive commander-in-chief who takes the border seriously, but in reality, it was a pretend performance all along.". . .
It was good for the border czar to go along with Biden. No? Wait! What?...
Greg Abbott: “Biden does not want America to see the chaos that he has caused on the border.”
"The Biden border crisis has spun so far out of control that the White House is finally sending him to the border.
"In preparing for his arrival, El Paso and the Border Patrol have been clearing out evidence of the crisis Biden’s open borders policies have wreaked, however, so Biden won’t get to see the suffering, destitution, and homelessness he has willfully created. More importantly, of course, the resulting photo-op visit will not shed light on the humanitarian crisis for Americans.". . .

How About A Kill Switch To Shut Down Washington?
I & I Editorial Board "Kris Kristofferson said that “freedom” is “just another word for nothin’ left to lose.” To the political left, freedom is an abomination that must be defined and controlled by the ruling class elites. And what better way to do that than to crack down on automobile travel?
"Cars are a favorite target of all progressives and most Democrats. No human invention has increased freedom as much as the automobile. That’s why they have chosen to go to war on cars. It’s a long-term campaign that will take decades to finish. But there are victories along the way, and one of them was won in Washington with the help of Republicans.
"According to Bob Barr, a former federal prosecutor and congressman from Georgia, the infrastructure bill the president signed a little more than a year ago includes “a little-noticed ‘safety’ measure that will take effect in five years.” It “amounts to a ‘vehicle kill switch,’” Barr wrote in the Daily Caller, and every car built after 2026 has to have one.
"Of course, the mandate was characterized “as a benign tool to help prevent drunk driving.” But safety is always a pretense for further government intervention and the erosion of liberty. Prime example: The COVID-19 lockdowns we just went through.
"Writing in Motorius, automotive journalist Steven Symes notes that, to many, a mandatory kill switch “might sound like a wonderful idea.”
“After all, we’ve seen wanted criminals who have fled from police only to crash into a car with a family inside, killing innocents as they try to avoid capture. Being able to stop the pursuit early and almost instantaneously seems like a wonderful thing, a potential lifesaver any law-abiding citizen would enthusiastically embrace.”
"The trouble is, too many in government refuse to abide by the law. Only the naive will believe that vehicle kill switches will be used only for lifesaving purposes. Imagine how a Transportation Department secretary appointed by a Democrat would use such a tool for the purpose of “fighting global warming” – to return to a simpleton’s platitude oft spouted by Al Gore, who’s made a career out of belching mindless drivel. He or she could dictate when and how far people drive.". . .
Republican Rep. Attempts To Get To The Bottom Of Allegations Of J6 Prisoner Abuse, This Is What He Said...
100%FedUp "In acknowledgement of the second anniversary of January 6, Texas Republican Rep. Troy Nehls visited some of the imprisoned protestors. He said they complained about the way they were being treated, alleging abuse from their guards and claiming they were denied basic rights.
"Nehls talked about his Thursday, January 5, visit to a prison holding the J6-ers. He said, “I had an opportunity to visit. A couple of my staffers went with me, and when we pulled up to the jail, there was a whole entourage. We had everybody there from Mayor Bowser’s office. I mean, we had the head cheese there.” He went on, “[W]e spent about an hour and 15 minutes; they knew I was coming because the place smelled very, very clean. Almost to the point that it was irritating my eyes with the bleach. But here nor there. We were there. [W]e had an opportunity to go visit the J Sixers, the detainees in their tank, and there are about 21 of them there,” he said. “Many of them were there for pretrial confinement. We had about 15 minutes to listen to them. They’re concerned. They said that their grievances are not being heard.”
"Nehls continued saying that the prisoners complained that they were being physically harmed by the officers,
“They also said that they’re not getting adequate medical treatment, which should be, as well as they were concerned about not having access to religious services. And there was one specific individual in there that was concerned about the assaults, the physical assaults that have been taking place against these individuals, by corrections officers. And I’m really looking into that. I want body camera video from the officers to confirm or deny that what these J six detainees are telling me is truthful.”.
Congressman Troy Nehls @RepTroyNehls:
The January 6 Sham Committee was NEVER about finding out the truth. It was ALWAYS about keeping Donald Trump off the ballot in 2024. Everyone knows it.
Not if they watch CNN or MSNBC.. .

Deleted Biden campaign ad slamming Buttigieg's lack of experience resurfaces amid multiple crises (msn.com) "A political campaign ad released by President Biden's campaign ahead of the 2020 presidential election attacking Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, a presidential candidate in Democratic primary, for his inexperience has resurfaced amid a series of crises.
President Pete Buttigieg? Think Again - 19FortyFive "Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg ranks above the vice president as the most viable Democratic contender for 2024, according to The Washington Post. Don’t expect that to last, no thanks to Kamala Harris.
"Leadership is often a collection of small tests, where the person in charge either rises to the challenge or doesn’t. Thus far, Secretary Pete has flunked on some big challenges.
"In fairness to him, he has faced more challenges than your typical Secretary of Transportation. Then again, few others viewed this Cabinet post as a springboard to the White House. Had he tackled these big challenges successfully, he could be cruising toward the presidency. That hasn’t been the case.". . .
