Getting black people not to vote for Biden -

 Don Surber    "Biden is in trouble so deep that the meatheads in the media have noticed."

"Salena Zito reported, “Democrats beware: These black voters are fed up, and looking for a political home.”

"She is a fine reporter who goes out and talks to people one human being to another. That gets her insights the talking heads don’t get from talking among themselves.

"Zito reported, “Ardell Mar­tin of Duquesne says the Demo­crat Party has taken Black vot­ers for granted for too long and no lon­ger rep­resents mid­dle class black peo­ple; she is un­happy with Joe Biden and has no in­ter­est in Don­ald Trump.”

"Duquesne is a suburb of Pittsburgh. It also has a violent crime rate 3 times higher than the nation. Need I mention it is 58% black? If that offends you, too bad. Uncomfortable truths are the most important ones.

"And the uncomfortable truth for President Trump is he is not going to get many black votes, but that is OK because Eisenhower, Nixon and Reagan won 6 presidential races without the black vote; 5 were landslide victories.

"The key to all this is remembering there are three ways to vote, not just two. The first is to vote Republican, the second is to vote Democrat, and the third way is to stay home — or vote a third party." . . .

Couldn't the Military Industrial Complex Make Its Money in Mexico?

 Ann Coulter (townhall.com)

As we also know, Mexico's drug cartels have killed more Americans than have died in all foreign wars combined. They've killed more Americans than every terrorist group in history. Year after year, they kill more Americans than died in the entire course of the Vietnam War. 

. . ."As we also know, Mexico's drug cartels have killed more Americans than have died in all foreign wars combined. They've killed more Americans than every terrorist group." . . . 

"And in the past 18 months, we've doled out more than $75 billion to Ukraine to fight Vladimir Putin. Please explain how Putin is a greater threat to any American than the wasting away and miserable deaths of hundreds of thousands of our fellow citizens, to say nothing of the gobs of taxpayer money lavished on pointless social services to "rehabilitate" the unrehabilitatable. (Plus the multiple millions lost to pure corruption.)

" Our "foreign policy community" will pay any price, bear any burden, to make some random part of the world safer -- as long as it's not America. 

"Here's how things would have gone if the warmongers, er, "foreign policy community," had been advising Winston Churchill in the run-up to World War II: 

"1925 CHURCHILL: Have any of you read "Mein Kampf"? Apparently, Mr. Hitler lays out a plan for German conquest of all of central Europe. 

"Sir, we're not wasting our time on that nonsense. Please focus: The important thing is that Chile just elected a liberal democrat, Emiliano Figueroa, who faces major opposition from the far-left labor party. They hate us for our freedoms! Britain's No. 1 foreign policy goal is to back Figueroa. 

"1928 CHURCHILL: Is anybody paying attention to this Hitler chap in Germany? He's barking mad, and he's a lot closer to England than any Chilean leftists. What? Are you a blood and soil type? We've pulled out of Chile, anyway. It's now ruled by a dictator. 

"1933 CHURCHILL: I know I'm sounding like a broken record, but "Mein Kampf" just became a bestseller in Germany. . .

. . ."It would be great if our military would concentrate on defending America. Can't the military industrial complex make its money in Mexico?"

Harvard is named WORST school for free speech - scoring BELOW zero

 Harvard is named WORST school for free speech - scoring BELOW zero - after nine professors and researchers faced calls to be disciplined or fired for voicing 'controversial' opinions | Daily Mail Online

• The elite university in Massachusetts has been dubbed the single worst academic institution for free speech in the US out of 248 schools 
• The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression said the school earned 0.00 points on a 100-point scale- but that its true score was even lower 
• According to the institution, the treatment of speakers, professors and students with controversial opinions at the school has been particularly bad 

"The school's score tanked for a number of reasons, not the least of which being the nine professors and researchers at Harvard who faced calls to be punished or fired in the last few years based on things they'd said or written.

"Seven of the nine were ultimately disciplined.

"The director of polling and analytics at FIRE, Sean Stevens, told the New York Post that Harvard has consistently ranked among the bottom tier of schools on the list, but was surprised a school was able to 'fall below zero.'

" 'They've had so many scholar sanctions,' he said.

"A school's score is calculated based on factors like how strong the its policies in favor of free speech are and how many professors, students, and visitors to campus have been targeted by school authorities for their publicly held positions.

"At Harvard, in the last five years, some of the seven free speech incidents have included the school's decision to revoke conservative activist Kyle Kashuv's acceptance because of racist comments he made on social media as a 16-year-old, for which he apologized.

"Since 2019, Harvard has sanctioned four scholars, three of whom the institution has gone on to fire." . . .

‘Obama’s Gay Lover’ Blows Cover Off Sex With Barack In Tucker Interview

 'Obama's Gay Lover' Blows Cover Off Sex With Barack In Tucker Interview (Video) ⋆ Conservative Firing Line

"Tucker Carlson’s highly anticipated interview with Larry Sinclair, the man purporting to be Barack Obama’s homosexual lover when the former president was a state senator in Illinois in 1999, is now scheduled for broadcast Wednesday evening at 6 p.m. Eastern on X, formerly Twitter.

"On Tuesday, Carlson posted numerous video clips from the discussion, as Sinclair goes into details of crack cocaine use and sexual relations with Obama.

"Pulled up in a bar, outside and there’s this guy that’s introduced to me as Barack Obama,” Sinclair says at the outset of the preview.

"I had given Barack $250 to pay for coke, I start putting a line on a CD tray to snort. And next thing I know, he’s got a little pipe and he’s smoking.” . . .

Biden wanders off during Medal of Honor ceremony UPDATED

First the back story:   Vietnam Helicopter Pilot Capt. Larry Taylor Awarded Medal of Honor for Daring Night-Time Rescue (yahoo.com)

How can anyone watch that and not feel compassion and admiration for Capt. Taylor, while Joe Biden treated the entire ceremony as just another game show?

 Monica Showalter - American Thinker    "Is there anyone less fit to be around men of authentic valor than cowardly, self-dealing Joe Biden?

"Breaking all protocol as well as common decency, he wandered off the set during a Medal of Honor ceremony, leaving the honoree, Capt. Larry L. Taylor, awkwardly on the podium alone.

"Here's what he did:"

(Notice the puzzled look on the photographer as he passes her. She knows something is wrong)

COVID-exposed Biden goes maskless in front of hero – HotAir   . . ."So was this an example of Joe Biden simply flaunting the rules that his own White House has established? Or did he just lose the plot (again) and forget about the masking guidelines in the middle of the ceremony? Personally, I’m leaning toward the latter explanation because of what happened next. Once the reading of Captain Taylor’s exploits was complete and the medal had been presented, it was time for the recitation of the prayer. But Biden simply wandered away and walked out of Taylor’s ceremony before it was complete.

Military veterans slammed Biden afterward, arguing that the commander-in-chief showed a startling lack of respect.

“Pardon my French…But what a f—ing idiot. The continuous lack of respect Biden has for anyone is appalling. Hawaii, Service members, active shooter victims, the list goes on,” former Navy SEAL and podcast host Shawn Ryan tweeted after the president’s hasty exit.

“At least he didn’t check his watch this time,” Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-Texas), an Army veteran, snarked on X, formerly known as Twitter. . . .

Chesa Boudin Recall: How San Francisco Became a Failed City - The Atlantic

. . .Because yesterday, San Francisco voters decided to turn their district attorney, Chesa Boudin, out of office. They did it because he didn’t seem to care that he was making the citizens of our city miserable in service of an ideology that made sense everywhere but in reality. It’s not just about Boudin, though. There is a sense that, on everything from housing to schools, San Francisco has lost the plot—that progressive leaders here have been LARPing left-wing values instead of working to create a livable city. And many San Franciscans have had enough. . . .

BAR NONE: Buffalo Bar Removes Bud Light for Good in Now-Viral Video

 [WATCH] (hannity.com)

"According to a report from The New York Post, Daniel M. Keem, a YouTube personality and podcaster, posted a video on social media showing his local bar taking down the Bud Light tap and replacing it with Miller Light.

“My local bar finally gave up & is removing Bud Light completely from the bar permanently,” Keem wrote in the caption of the post that he uploaded to the X social media platform formerly known as Twitter.

“So, Bud Light is so boycotted that it’s being removed [and replaced] with Miller,” Keem said in the clip.

“It’s being removed from my local bar. Holy s–t. That’s crazy.”

Keem is then heard asking the bartender: “Really, nobody’s ordering Bud anymore?”

“No,” replied the bartender.

"The clip has been viewed more than 8.5 million times as of Friday morning.

"Bud Light is currently laying off nearly 400 employees in the wake of its disastrous partnership with trans TikToker Dylan Mulvane[y].

Karine Jean-Pierre Might Have Finally Crossed the Line - 19FortyFive   "When Karine Jean-Pierre lies and says she can’t keep up with the president because he’s always moving so quickly to serve the American people, it strains credulity. How can a part-time president achieve this?" . . .

A lot going on...

Karine Jean-Pierre responds to AOC: Biden has 'done more than anybody' to secure the border (msn.com)    "The president has done more to secure the border and to deal with this issue of immigration than anybody else. He really has!" Jean-Pierre said Thursday. 

"Look, the president has done what he can from here, from the federal government, from the White House to put forth and manage our border in a safe and humane way to respect the dignity of every human, as he says all the time, and making sure that our communities are safe," she added. 

KJP: We're Doing a Better Job on Border Security Than Those Obstructionist Republicans, or Something (townhall.com) . . ."This comes on the heels of the Vice President (and border czar, don't forget) dutifully repeating the insulting line that the border is secure in an interview on Sunday -- though in fairness, she could barely even pretend that she believed what she was saying.  Jean Pierre was any more convincing.  There have been nearly one million known got-aways on Biden's watch.  There have also been millions more encounters, many of which have resulted in illegal immigrants being simply processed and released into the country.  The border is quite conspicuously not secure.  And if she wants to invite a game of comparisons, that would be very unwise.  Click through and look at these statistics.  Let's toss out the summer of 2020 as a COVID anomaly.  Let's compare apprehensions under the Trump administration in 2019, versus under Biden in 2022.  In April of 2019, there were about 109,000 encounters at the border.  This past April, the number swelled to nearly 236,000.  In July 2019 -- slow season due to heat -- there were 82,000 encounters.  July 2022 saw 200,000.  Team Biden is shattering records on this front." . . .

Biden Administration Finalizes Lightbulb Efficiency Rule Sidelined By Trump Https://T.Co/FRAhDK0K9O Pic.Twitter.Com/0S0rryG7YR

— The Hill (@Thehill) April 26, 2022

"The Biden administration has implemented a comprehensive energy efficiency plan by enforcing a countrywide ban on several commonly used light bulbs.

"This initiative, led by the Department of Energy (DOE), prohibits manufacturers and retailers from selling traditional incandescent and halogen light bulbs, which currently make up a significant portion of the market.

"Instead, they will be required to offer light-emitting diode (LED) alternatives or face significant penalties imposed by the federal government. (Trending: 12 Celebrities Who Promised To Leave America Over Trump)

“ 'It’s impossible for Democrats to leave us alone. States must fight back,” Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., tweeted ahead of the ban enforcement.

“ 'President Biden continues to push liberal fantasies through his weaponized federal agencies,” Rep. Andy Barr, R-Ky., added. “The Department of Energy should be focused on American energy independence, not on what lightbulbs you can or can’t purchase for your home or business.”

"After several months of proposing the rulemaking, the Department of Energy (DOE) officially implemented regulations in April 2022, prohibiting specific light bulbs due to their low energy efficiency levels.

"According to the DOE’s announcement, these regulations are expected to result in annual savings of approximately $3 billion for consumers on their utility bills, while also reducing carbon emissions by 222 million metric tons over the next thirty years." . . .

Biden: 'I Haven't Had the Occasion to Go to East Palestine'

 Breitbart

"President Joe Biden on Saturday claimed that he has not “had the occasion” to go East Palestine, Ohio, despite promising to do so back in March, after a train derailment resulted in a toxic chemical spill that led to air and water contamination of the village.

"Biden gave a rambling answer after a reporter asked him why he had not yet visited, saying:

I haven’t had the occasion to go to East Palestine. There’s a lot going on here, and I just haven’t been able to break. I was thinking about I’d go to East Palestine this week but then I was reminded I’ve gotta go literally around the world. I’m going from, from Washington to India to Vietnam to — and so it’s gonna be awhile but we’re making sure that East Palestine has what they need materially in order to deal with their problems.

Biden's brain, mind, behavior, and character

"Maybe that's where his idiocy comes from -- a certain naivete, coupled with abundant vanity. Whatever it is, it tells us where his weak spots are, and what Republicans should exploit in the 2024 election. Goodness knows, America's enemies already have."  Monica Showalter

Joe Biden, forever stupid - American Thinker   "You can tell a lot about a man once you learn what he fears most, and with Franklin Foer's recent expose of White House doings, Joe Biden's biggest insecurity seems to be his fear of "being perceived as stupid."

 According to the Daily Caller:

Franklin Foer, the author of a new tell-all book about Joe Biden, appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press and said he believes the president has insecurities over “being perceived as stupid” because of the plagiarism scandal that derailed his first presidential campaign.

"He said this on Meet The Press.

“Yeah. I think one of the things that’s so interesting about Joe Biden is that he has these insecurities that govern a lot of the ways in which he moves through the world. And so, one of his primary insecurities is that he doesn’t want to be perceived as stupid because he had this plagiarism scandal back in the 1980s. So when he walks into an interview or walks into a press conference, he wants to have mastery of what he’s discussing. So his prep sessions can go on for long periods of time,” Foer said." . . .

Biden's brain, mind, behavior, and character - American Thinker   . . ."Biden's decision-making can be characterized as impulsive and even politically self-aggrandizing and melodramatic.  His abrupt and impulsive decision to leave Afghanistan despite other possible options proposed by the military did fulfill a campaign promise, but it was not executed carefully and effectively from many angles of consideration.  The consequences for our Afghan friends and allies left behind and Afghan women is devastating.  The potential for future al-Qaeda and ISIS attacks is increased in the vacuum our abrupt withdrawal created.

"Biden had campaigned on green energy proposals toward America's shift to solar, wind, and electric-powered vehicles.  However, his abrupt, aggressive rejection of all fossil fuels, industries and pipelines was impulsive.  It hurt America because no gradual plan for such change to a higher and effective percentage of renewable energy was implemented." . . .
