Democrat Rep Jamie Raskin's Words Come Back to Haunt Him During Biden Impeachment Inquiry

 WJ  "Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, the ranking Democrat member of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, appeared to have a short memory Thursday when he argued Republicans should have a full floor vote before beginning an impeachment inquiry.

The Oversight Committee began its first impeachment inquiry hearing into President Joe Biden’s alleged public corruption and bribery concerning payments from overseas interests.

“We’ve had to slide awkwardly into a House impeachment process without the benefit of the floor vote that Speaker [Kevin] McCarthy insisted was absolutely imperative and necessary when Donald Trump was impeached,” Raskin said in his opening remarks.

“That’s exactly what has not happened here, because they don’t have the votes, because dozens of Republicans recognize what a futile and absurd process this is,” he added.

Raskin argued that Republicans have been looking for months and, “They’ve got nothing on Joe Biden.”


"Jackson, Wyoming – Joe Biden boasted two years ago that the CEO of a major electric bus manufacturer was making him “look good” and federal dollars poured into the company. Now those words have come back to haunt him as an entire town’s electric bus fleet backed by the company broke down.
"The Cowboy State Daily reported Tuesday that Teton County and the town of Jackson wanted a low-emission transit system for the county. The Southern Teton Area Rapid Transit (START) system, a joint operation between Jackson and Teton County, had bought eight electric buses to complement its fleet of 31.
"But the entire bus fleet broke down so the town’s transit system is now solely relying on its diesel fleet. The last of the electric buses went out of service two months ago and some of the broken buses have been awaiting parts for months." . . .

Pentagon Targets the Unborn Enemy

This is a military bent on national suicide, more concerned with killing the unborn than killing the enemy.

  NoisyRoom.net   "Rather than kill the enemy, the Pentagon is now in the business of killing the unborn. How much confidence should we have in these “leaders?” They are a disgrace to the uniform.

"They should defect to Russia and China. Only then would we be in better shape.

"As we anticipate the anniversary of 9/11, many assume that Pentagon brass and the leadership of the CIA and FBI have corrected the problems that led to a terrorist attack on American soil. Instead, the Pentagon is attacking Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville for objecting to the Department of Defense turning into an abortion factory.

"Tuesday’s release from the Department of Defense, disguised as a news story,  attacked Tuberville for holding up various promotions of the top brass, as long as the DoD remains adamant in favor of aborting children using taxpayer funds. Tuberville’s position is legally and morally correct.

"Here’s how the DoD propagandists put it: “To ensure equitable access to care, DOD implemented a policy enabling service members to travel outside their duty stations’ state if that state imposes restrictions on reproductive health access.”

"Translated into common language, this means the Pentagon is using money for national defense to facilitate abortions across state lines.

"But the Congress never voted for that.

"There is no constitutional right to abortion, and there never was.

"Despite DoD propaganda, let us understand that the term “reproductive health access” is abortion. Pentagon scribblers don’t even want to use the term. They are ashamed to refer to the killing of the unborn.

"When the Pentagon is distributing such lies, under the cover of a “news” story, you know that moral standards have declined dramatically." . . .

New York Democrats to Distribute Flyers to Illegals at Southern Border Warning Them 'You Are Better Off' Somewhere Else

Naturally Democrats mean that in a nice, compassionate way. TD

  The Gateway Pundit | by David Greyson   "New York Democrats are planning to distribute flyers at the US-Mexico border telling illegals to “consider another city.”

"On Wednesday, Mayor Eric Adam’s office announced this plan to “combat misinformation at the border.”

"The flyers will be in both Spanish and English and will warn the illegals that New York City is the most expensive city in the world so they will be better off somewhere else.

"How interesting that a sanctuary city run by Democrats who have been all for illegal immigration is now troubled by the flood of illegal aliens. Leftist ideas sound compassionate coming from those Democrat leaders until it’s at their front door.

(Bloomberg) — New York City is planning to distribute flyers to migrants in shelters and at the US southern border that say the city’s resources “have been exhausted” and they won’t get any help finding work, officials said Wednesday.

The one-page flyer, printed in both English and Spanish, warns asylum seekers that “you will not be placed in a hotel,” and that “NYC is one of the most expensive cities in the world; you are better off going to a more affordable city.” The flyer also declares “NYC cannot help you obtain a work permit, and you will not be able to easily find work.”

The effort to dissuade migrants from coming to New York is the latest attempt to slow the rapid influx of some 100,000 people who have arrived in the city since the spring of 2022, overwhelming its shelter system and straining coffers. The city pays $387 a day to shelter each migrant family, and estimates the cost for caring migrants will total $12 billion through mid-2025.

"New York City wants to make illegal aliens a problem for other cities." . . . 

Keep Biden upright

 


Annals of senescence | Power Line (powerlineblog.com)   "Alex Thompson reports that President Biden is working on a critical project for his re-election bid: Make sure he doesn’t trip. Thompson’s Axios scoop runs under the headline “Biden team’s don’t-let-him-trip mission.”

"The Biden team is worried that one more public tumble might convince voters that Biden is not up to the job. I believe that voters already come to that view, and with good reason. The physical manifestation of his senescence corresponds with his visible limitations of speech and understanding. He makes 80 look like the new 100." . . .

Obama was working on his jump shot. Biden is working on maintaining an upright position while walking.

. . ."I would suggest that Biden take up ballet. It would do wonders for his balance and give him the kind of up-close-and-personal social opportunities he loves."

Trump shut the border and got a migrant deal with Mexico. Biden also shut the border and got ... more illegals - American Thinker  . . ."But what isn't symmetrical is Trump's insistence on a win-win situation for both sides, and Biden's insistence on a lose-lose result.

If this isn't proof of Biden's idiocy, what is? Biden has opted to get all the pain of a border shutdown and none of the benefits, all to preserve the chaos of his open border. It's the hill he means to die on and may be the stupidity that will sweep him from office." . . .

Texas Democrat roasted for claiming Biden only guilty of loving Hunter ‘unconditionally’ | Fox News

Dianne Feinstein, Centrist? Newsom a tyrant?

She was a California Democrat, you know?

  Power Line (powerlineblog.com)    "Dianne Feinstein died last night. She cast a Senate vote earlier in the day. Tributes to her are pouring in, which is natural and appropriate. But check out how the Washington Post described her:

. . ."So throughout her career, Feinstein was a consistently left-wing senator, and over the last 18 years she almost never deviated from the liberal line on any issue or on any vote. You may think this is fine if you are a liberal Democrat, but there is no sane sense in which it represents a centrist voting record.

"The Post’s characterization tells us nothing about Feinstein, but a lot about where the Washington Post sits on the political spectrum: it holds down the far-left pole, which it myopically sees as the middle of the road." . . .

Pressure is on Newsom to quickly appoint Feinstein's temporary Senate replacement - POLITICO   "The death of Sen. Dianne Feinstein places Gov. Gavin Newsom under intense pressure to quickly name a replacement as a bitterly divided Congress votes on a spending plan in the coming hours to avert a government shutdown.

"Newsom had hoped to avoid the politically charged decision of selecting a second senator. But he will need to move swiftly as a budget standoff has the government on the verge of shutting down, and Senate Democrats could need every vote. Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) affirmed on Friday that the fast-moving political situation creates an imperative for Newsom to make a difficult decision quickly." . . .

A COVID Tyrant For President?   "When recently asked if he was going to run for president next year, California Gov. Gavin Newsom wouldn’t rule it out. This is no big news, since we’ve been hearing for some time that he will rescue the faltering Biden-Harris regime. But it is distressing. In addition to driving people from his state with policies that become more deranged with every passing year, Newsom was a malevolent pandemic warrior who should have been punished for his offenses. Voters deserve to know just how vicious he was – and that he remains unrepentant.

"It would be hard to argue that any another state mistreated its citizens more than California. Given the opportunity of the novel coronavirus outbreak, Newsom smoothly tapped into his just-below-the-surface authoritarianism (the same urge to dictate that afflicts nearly every Democrat in the nation)." . . .

Megyn Kelly Scared Trump Will Be Taken Out: 'I Do Worry for His Safety'

 Rachel M. Emmanuel, Western Journal (ijr.com)  "Some prominent voices in the media have been saying something lately that Americans need to pay attention to.

"On Friday’s episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show” on YouTube, host Megyn Kelly expressed concerns that the “demonization” of Trump could lead to him being hurt or “worse.”

"During a discussion with her guest, Dan Bongino, conservative radio host and author of “The Gift of Failure,” Kelly voiced her concerns surrounding the portrayal of Trump and its potential escalation as the presidential primary contest continues.

“ 'You heard Tucker asked Trump about it when he interviewed him,” Kelly said, referring to an August interview between Trump and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. “Whether Trump is worried, whether there’s a realistic possibility, the left is going to so melt down as his power rises, as he rises toward a second term … that they try to do something to him, God forbid, or that they try to do something to our country.”

"She cited the Black Lives Matter riots of 2020 and other leftist violence, as well as the Democratic Party and establishment media’s efforts to inflate the importance of the Capitol incursion of Jan. 6, 2021 — and place the blame for it exclusively on Trump." . . .

Tucker Carlson Says He Fears for Trump’s Life: ‘We’re Speeding Toward Assassination’ (Video) (yahoo.com)

Tucker Carlson Reveals Why He Fears For Trump’s Life (townhall.com)   "During an interview on comedian Adam Carolla’s podcast, Carlson explained why he fears for Trump’s life as polls suggest the former president will be the next GOP nominee in 2024. 

"Carolla asked the former Fox News host if he thinks the Democrat-run establishment will “let” Trump take over the White House should he beat President Joe Biden— which, according to polls, is a very likely event. 


“ 'Graph it out, man. We’re speeding toward assassination, obviously, and no one will say that, but I don’t know how you can’t reach that conclusion,” Carlson said. “You know what I mean? Like, they have decided — permanent Washington, both parties — have decided that there’s something about Trump that’s so threatening to them that they just can’t have it.” 

"As the Left continues to stop Trump from making it on the 2024 ballot, Carlson believes the next step is to kill the 45th president as their protests, impeachments, and indictments repeatedly fail.". . .

Joe Biden’s Legacy: A Closer Look

This leads us to one question: Where’s the criminal indictment of Joe Biden?

 

Joe Biden's Legacy: A Closer Look - Analyzing America   "Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich argues that the Biden family is the “most corrupt” in United States history.

"It’s easy to see why. Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign repeatedly insisted that he had no involvement in his son Hunter’s overseas business dealings.

" 'I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,” Biden said at the time. “I don’t discuss business with my son.”

"At another time, Biden categorically and emphatically said, “I’ve never discussed with my son or my brother, or anyone else anything having to do with their businesses, period.” (Poll: Is Joe Biden Fit to be President? VOTE)

"Multiple witnesses have testified that then-Vice President was regularly involved in the businesses of Hunter Biden and foreign nationals. The explosive testimony of Joe and Hunter Biden’s longtime friend and business partner Devon Archer revealed that Joe was on speakerphone at meetings with business partners at least 20 times. “Joe Biden was put on the phone to sell ‘the brand,'” Archer explained in his testimony.

"Despite having no personal or business ties to Ukraine, and no experience in the energy sector, Hunter Biden and his business partner Devon Archer were placed on the board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma. They received millions in this position. In exchange, Archer testified that Hunter was required to get help from then-Vice President Joe Biden “regarding the Ukrainina prosecutor Viktor Shokin.” Shokin was investigating Burisma on corruption charges.

"Biden later bragged that he demanded that Ukraine fire Shokin or else the U.S. would withhold $1 billion in aid. “Well, son of a b****. He got fired,” Biden said laughing. A reliable FBI informant said Burisma CEO Zlochevsky paid off the Bidens with $10,000,000 for this service." . . .

"We’re all in this together. If a Democrat wins the next presidential election (and, God forbid, the Senate, too), we’ll all hang go to the gulags together . . ." *

This is easily the most disappointing performance I’ve yet seen by a host for a presidential debate. This should raise serious questions about Ronna McDaniel’s leadership at the RNC, especially because she made the debates a key issue in her re-election as RNC chair. She pledged to make sure that these forums would not become turkey shoots of Republican candidates by mainstream media. The first Fox News debate had its issues, but this was far worse, and every candidate on the stage last night should demand some answers and accountability for what McDaniel has wrought thus far.

 The Second GOP Debate Was a Mess...and It Exposed a Glaring Issue Within the Republican Party (townhall.com)

What the Heck Was Fox News Thinking? – RedState    . . . "Not to say some candidates didn't acquit themselves very well, including Ron DeSantis, Doug Burgum, and Vivek Ramaswamy (in my opinion), but it is to say that the overall production hovered somewhere between a dumpster fire and testicle cancer. All of that can be traced back to the moderators. As was mentioned in my post-debate article about Univision's Ilia Calderón, who was inexplicably allowed to be a moderator by Fox News and the Ronna McDaniel-led RNC, it felt like you were watching an MSNBC primetime show at points." . . .

"To give one example, Calderón actually blamed United States citizens for the fentanyl crisis in an astonishing attempt to pass the buck from Mexico and China.". . .

I'm not trying to be hard on Dana Perino, but her attempt to get the candidates to play a faux game of Survivor was ridiculous. It perfectly encapsulates why so many have turned away from Fox News. We don't want silly, manufactured drama. We want results, and we want a "conservative" news network that can keep its eye on the ball instead of morphing into the equivalent of a CNN broadcast.

 Whose Side Is Fox on Anyway? – PJ Media   "The Fox Business GOP presidential debate was a total trainwreck—and that’s putting it mildly.

"If you watched, you were treated to nearly two hours of left-wing talking points from the moderators, who not only had no control of the debate but ignored their own rules and allowed candidates to attack one another without the opportunity for rebuttal.

"The leftist Univision moderator—Emmy award winner!!! Ilia Calderón—who had trouble speaking English clearly, kept asking questions about Dreamers and DACA, turning the questions into speeches to condemn GOP policies on immigration."
Then there was Dana Perino’s stupid question at the end asking the candidates who should be voted off the GOP “island” to clear the field. DeSantis spoke up and called her out for asking a question with no substance in what should’ve been a serious debate. The other candidates quickly united behind DeSantis, nodding their heads.

Second GOP Debate Marred By Univision Moderator’s Anti-American HATE and LIES | Newsbusters "In another instance of why Republicans shouldn't submit themselves to questions from a biased press, Calderón pedded Kamala Harris's BIG LIE about what Florida teaches about slavery.

 Ilia Calderón's Accent Is Too Thick - sbhayden1@gmail.com - Gmail (google.com)  . . ."When the spoken word is part of one’s job description I wonder why Ms. Calderon has chosen not to improve her pronunciation. Why was she chosen to moderate this debate? Because she is a Trump-hater? Her August 2020 book, “My Time to Speak: Reclaiming Ancestry and Confronting Race,” makes it clear she is both a hater-at-large and a Trump-hater specially.

"When she asked Chris Christie the following question, she was lying: “What do you say about a pathway to citizenship for 11 million immigrants?”

"Yale study in 2018 found that 22 million illegal aliens were living in the United States. Granted, some illegals that were counted in 2018 have no doubt since moved out of the country; but, THAT doesn’t include those that entered since then, including Biden’s guests. They tally about 9 million, with 10,000 currently arriving daily. Her question should have referred to the Yale study AND the total of Biden’s guests. THAT would have been an honest question. Christie did not correct her, nor did any of the other candidates." . . .

Get ready for more terrible questions like those when NBC News hosts the third GOP debate.

Stick a Fork in Biden – He’s Done!

 Brian C. Joondeph - American Thinker

Losing to Trump is unthinkable which is why Democrats’ politicized and weaponized FBI, DOJ, and legal system are attempting to send Trump to prison for the next thousand years. Trump is a force of nature with tremendous support of the people, and most of the Republican party.

"President Joe Biden has become a joke, confabulating tall tales about his past political exploits, shaking hands with phantoms, not shaking hands with world leaders, getting lost on stage, and frequently falling. These are all clear signs of his physical and mental decline, obvious to all but his most partisan enablers and sycophants.

"He has announced his candidacy for reelection, but that is as credible as Jack Nicklaus announcing a run for the US Open next spring. The only question is how Joe exits the presidency and campaign, whether voluntary or by his handlers making him an offer he can’t refuse.

"The latest polls should be a bucket of cold water on Biden’s aspirations and the hopes and dreams of his enablers. A recent ABC News/Washington Post poll suggests the turkey in the oven is done, ready for carving. Mind you, any political poll is merely a snapshot in time, the sentiments of voters, or whoever was surveyed, in late September 2023, more than a year from the next election." . . .

Newsom: You bet we'll be keeping porn in school libraries! –

  HotAir


"If you’re a fairly typical American adult in most parts of the country today, particularly if you’re a parent of younger children, and you heard someone mention something about a ban on pornography in school libraries, I’m guessing you’d probably nod your head and think, ‘Huh. That sounds reasonable. We wouldn’t want that.’ Or at least that’s what I would think anyway. But if you happen to live in California and this same scenario popped up in reality, you might have second thoughts rather quickly. That’s because Governor Gavin Newsom just signed AB 1078 into law. But as it turns out, it’s not a ban on pornography in school libraries. It’s a ban on removing pornography from school libraries, along with critical race theory material and a bunch of other leftist propaganda. And if you or sympathetic members of your school board are caught doing it, they can be hit with some hefty fines. I swear… you can’t make this stuff up. (National Review)" . . .

In a totally real report, The Babylon Bee tells us how the White House plans to stop Biden from tripping

  Twitchy  "Yesterday, we reported how the White House actually is working on a plan to prevent Joe Biden from tripping. And if you needed any proof that G-d exists and He has a sense of humor, then Biden proceeded to nearly fall down the stairs when getting off Air Force One.

"And now we have to take our hats off to The Babylon Bee because they have has unveiled exactly how they plan to keep Biden from tripping from now on. It's quite a scoop for them!" . . 
To Avoid Embarrassing Falls, Aides Will Now Transport Biden Using Presidential Hand Truck | Babylon Bee   WASHINGTON, D.C. — The White House announced a new directive Tuesday they say will put an end to President Joe Biden's endless pratfalls once and for all: transporting the leader of the free world on an official presidential hand truck
"Whoa, look at me go!" Biden said excitedly as he was pushed up the tarmac to Air Force One. "I'm flying!"
The presidential hand truck was specially designed by the nation's top scientists and is reportedly able to withstand the blast of a nuclear bomb.
"This baby is made out of the same heavy-duty material as the space shuttle," said Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre as she introduced the stylish presidential hand truck, code-named Limp. "It's completely bulletproof and capable of speeds in excess of 5 miles per hour."

According to sources, Biden is impressed by the hand truck's ability to whisk him away from journalists who keep asking him annoying questions about his undeniable corruption.

"Whoosh!" Biden cried out on one such occasion. "Frender limbergrander, man! Weeeeeeeee!"

At publishing time, the president had honored the hand truck with a Presidential Medal of Freedom.


"Indeed, here's Jeff Sessions using the lower end of the spectrum of force the law allows, though more subtly than we would have:" 


"It goes to show you how well known this behavior was, behind closed doors."
