In the same Vein: A Year in Review: KJP's Most Embarrassing Takes

 Spencer Brown (townhall.com)


"While Karine Jean-Pierre assumed the role of White House Press Secretary last May, 2023 marked her first full year as Biden's chief spokesperson and hoo, boy was it a year of gaffes, ignoring inconvenient facts, storming out of the briefing room, and refusing to answer questions. 

"From Biden's classified document scandal to the Chinese spy balloon affair, denial of a border or inflation crisis, and plenty of "I'm just not going to go there" non-answers, 2023 was a tour de force in obfuscation and opaqueness.

"Before the leftist trolls have a chance to get triggered: No, this doesn't have anything with Jean-Pierre being a woman, black, or "queer" as she identified herself from the podium this year. It's about her being unable or unwilling to be honest with the American people or to acknowledge reality. 

"In chronological order beginning in January, here are KJP's most laughable and inexplicable takes from 2023." . . .

A real winner: "Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell, and Ilhan Omar are brilliant individuals who deserve access to sensitive information on the Intelligence Committee. "

Joe Biden's Top 5 Worst Moments in 2023 (breitbart.com)   "President Joe Biden, 81, continued his record in 2023 of awkward and embarrassing moments, as well as alarming incidents demonstrating cognitive decline.

"Below are the five top worst moments for Biden in 2023:" . . .

Fireworks at the WH Press Briefing: Reporter Tells KJP She Should Be 'Ashamed' for Ducking Questions – RedState    "We’ve written dozens and dozens of stories about White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre because she’s irritable, evades any questions she doesn’t like, and is just generally incompetent at her job. Few besides Fox News’ Peter Doocy and Today News Africa's Simon Ateba ever call it out; most of the other WH press corps sheep just go along with it." . . .

"But Jean-Pierre is in a class by herself and treats reporters with as much or even more contempt than the Big Guy does. There are so many examples to choose from, but here are just a few:

Dianny’s Ten Most Tiresome People of 2023

 


The annual year-end tradition continues…   "I started the Ten Most Tiresome People feature in 2013 at the now-defunct conservative blog All the Right Snark and have continued the tradition every year since.
"It is never easy narrowing the list down to ten. You’d be amazed at how many people seem to go out of their way to dance on my last nerve every year, and this year was no different. It took me the better part of a week to winnow the list down to ten, but I managed it.
"But then, as I was putting the finishing touches on the column this morning, I made a last-minute change, removing one of the original ten in exchange for someone I had initially rejected. That rarely happens. And no, I won’t tell you who got removed. I’d rather keep you guessing.
"Anyroad.
"Here is my list of the Ten Most Tiresome People of 2023."
He starts with....
10. Karine Jean-Pierre

. . ."
Then again, sucking at her job is incidental. For Democrats, incompetence is often a resume-enhancer, especially if you check the right boxes.
"The Biden administration was so determined to hire and appoint people based solely on skin color and who they sleep with that America is now stuck watching an incompetent muppet struggle to answer questions every day while furiously rifling through her binder of crib notes.". . . 
. . ."I keep waiting for Karine to announce her imminent departure. But since the Biden White House is where people go when they aren’t qualified to work anywhere else, I expect Karine to hang around until Biden leaves office.

"Unless she starts stealing luggage from airports."

The Ugly Truth About Obama Exposed

State of the Union  "Alan Dershowitz criticized former President Barack Obama for his recent comments on Israel, suggesting that Obama’s criticism stems from a deep hatred for Israel.

"Dershowitz claimed that Obama had never been supportive of Israel and that his true feelings are now coming out since he is no longer president.

"Dershowitz accused Obama of contributing to the problem and encouraging anti-Semitic and anti-Israel attitudes.

"FBN host Maria Bartiromo asked Dershowitz, “Do you think Obama understands what his words have meant?”

“I think he always had a deep hatred of Israel in his heart. He hid it very well.” claimed Dershowitz.

“He called me to the Oval Office, and he said Alan, you know I have Israel’s back.” Dershowtiz told Bartiromo.

"Dershowtiz explained that he “didn’t know he (Obama) had a target on it. He has never been supportive of Israel. And finally…his true feelings have come out now that he’s no longer president, doesn’t have to be elected.”

"He goes on to accuse Obama of “contributing enormously to the problem because he is respected among young people,”

" 'If he says the occupation is unbearable and that anything can be done to stop it, he is asking people to engage in their antisemitic, anti-Israel and anti-American attitudes,” claimed Dershowitz.

" 'He should be ashamed of himself. He should apologize,” insisted the longtime lawyer." . . .

‘Doctors Against Genocide’ Scraps Event At Holocaust Museum, Apologizes After Uproar: ‘Misunderstanding’

State of the Union   "A group of doctors, “Doctors Against Genocide,” planned an event at the U.S. Holocaust Museum to raise awareness about the violence in Gaza.

"However, the announcement sparked backlash, leading to the event’s cancellation.

"The group clarified that the intention was to express empathy for Holocaust victims and learn from the museum’s genocide education initiatives. (Trending: Famous Actor Under Investigation After Calling For Biden’s Execution)

"They emphasized their stance against all forms of hate, including antisemitism.

“As Doctors Against Genocide we wish to address misconceptions surrounding our Holocaust Museum event which has been misrepresented as an anti-Semetic gathering,” the group wrote.

“ 'We had recently announced a planned visit to the Holocaust Memorial Museum as a way to educate and engage the medical community.”

“ 'We wanted to learn from the Museum’s initiatives in genocide education and prevention to inform our own efforts as an organization dedicated to preventing war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide around the world,” the group said.

“ 'It was not our aim to protest inside or outside the museum, nor is it our intent to minimize the important work done by the Holocaust Memorial Museum. We are deeply affected by the horrors of the Holocaust and are moved to prevent similar atrocities.”

“ 'We apologize for the lack of clarity in our previous announcement. Moving forward, we will ensure that our messaging is clear and transparent.”

"The event drew criticism, with Jewish and pro-Israel activists expressing outrage.

"The group’s mission is to confront and prevent genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, with a current focus on ending the situation in Gaza.

“ 'Hamas has one goal – to murder Jews. For this physicians’ group to desecrate the Holocaust museum with their calls of a ceasefire (ie – for the Jewish nation to stop defending itself) is stomach churning,” the watchdog group “StopAntisemitism.Org” wrote.

“ 'This is a direct attack on our existence and Western values. It’s impossible to respect these unpatriotic, slimy creatures any less,” surveillance group Shirion Collective said." . . .

Remember East Palestine, Ohio? Joe Biden Doesn't, but the White House Says He Still Plans to Visit

Ferguson and Conrad are probably on to something. East Palestine sits in Columbiana County, Ohio. Donald Trump took that county with more than 70 percent of the vote in the 2020 election. Contrast that with the fact that in September, Biden made a beeline to stand in support of striking auto workers in Michigan.

RedState   "As Joe Biden settles in to enjoy his New Year's vacation, Americans are left to ring in 2024 by dealing with a tanking economy, crime rates through the roof, and conflicts abroad. The people of East Palestine, Ohio, have the added bonus of still coping with recovery efforts stemming from the February 3, 2023, Norfolk-Southern train derailment that left their small community a virtual toxic chemical dump. The toxic chemicals that poured into the air and water supply in East Palestine read like an alphabet soup of hazardous waste. Vinyl chloride, ethylene glycol, ethylhexyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, and isobutylene have made residents chronically ill with ailments such as headaches, coughs, fatigue, and skin burning. 

 "But the citizens of East Palestine can take comfort in the fact that the White House insists that nearly a year after the derailment, Joe Biden plans on visiting them. On Thursday, White House Spokesman Jeremy Edwards said, “The president continues to oversee a robust recovery effort to support the people of East Palestine, and he will visit when it is most helpful for the community." Kind of hard to oversee things when you haven't shown up to see what is happening. As late as September, the White House continued to say that Biden would visit.  One person who did show up to offer support and help was former President Donald Trump. Trump visited East Palestine weeks after the accident with pallets of water and cleaning supplies and met with East Palestine Mayor Trent Conaway, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), and other officials. Trump also treated firefighters and other first responders to lunch at the local McDonalds."

NY Times: Hamas Weaponized Sexual Violence on 10/7

 HotAir

"This article should be required reading for every woman who dares to protest in support of Hamas and that begins with AOC. It should be posted in the common area of every dorm at Harvard , Penn , MIT. It makes you wonder what happened to all the female hostages. . ."

Didn't Democrats tell us to "Believe all women"?

"Since 10/7 there have been reports that Israeli women were raped as well as murdered during the Hamas attack on Israel. And since that day Hamas has been denying it. There have also been a significant number of very online leftists doing their best to downplay or outright deny the sexual violence carried out by Hamas. As recently as a few weeks ago they were all talking about the lack of evidence for it. Here’s an example of the sort of thing I mean. This comes from a leftist site called MintPress News. It’s not an outright denial just a strong suggestion that these claims about Hamas and rape may not be true.

"These are just a couple of examples but there are hundreds more like this. Today the NY Times published the results of its own investigation into the evidence and concludes that Hamas definitely weaponized rape during the 10/7 attack.

Israeli officials say that everywhere Hamas terrorists struck — the rave, the military bases along the Gaza border and the kibbutzim — they brutalized women.

A two-month investigation by The Times uncovered painful new details, establishing that the attacks against women were not isolated events but part of a broader pattern of gender-based violence on Oct. 7.

Relying on video footage, photographs, GPS data from mobile phones and interviews with more than 150 people, including witnesses, medical personnel, soldiers and rape counselors, The Times identified at least seven locations where Israeli women and girls appear to have been sexually assaulted or mutilated.

"Very few of the victims survived and those who did have so far chosen not to come forward. But a woman who was hiding under a bush near the music festival said she witnessed a group of Hamas fighters raping and murdering several women." . . .
. . ."I’d like to think most people are this sensible. That they can see what Hamas is and stop defending them and chanting their slogans, i.e. from the river to the sea. The fact that these brutal, theocratic, anti-Semitic, misogynist murderers have become heroes to many on the left should be shocking to every sane person in the world."

Tone deaf: Anti-Israel Crew Storms, Blocks Entrance to World Trade Center, Shouting 'Revolution' and 'Allahu Akbar!' –

  RedState

I have to think that whoever is behind the anti-Israel actions must be trying to pick the worst possible places to target on purpose, because they keep doing things that are guaranteed to tick off people and drive away people from their "cause."  
 Update: Holocaust Museum Weighs in As Anti-Israel Group Furiously Backtracks on Museum Storming Event

"But let's remember this isn't only about Israel. Some of the protesters have sported banners saying "abolish the settler project." They regard the U.S. as part of settler/colonizers that must be "abolished," not just the state of Israel, as one professor/activist explained. 

"So on Thursday when they blocked the exits of the World Trade Center, many had a visceral, bad reaction to seeing people posing there in keffiyehs, waving the Palestinian and Yemen flags. The crowd was also carrying Syrian flags. You can see that video here on X.

"The police prevented them from getting inside the building. 

"The red, white, and black flag you can see in the video is Yemeni. Iranian proxies -- the Houthis from Yemen -- are presently attacking U.S. assets.  So, not only is this offensive because of 9/11 but it's also very problematic to wave the flag of the people attacking us. They also raised the one-finger salute to Allah right in front of the front door." . . .  

BREAKING: Now There's Proof! Brad Raffensperger Lied to President Trump When He Told Him in Jan 2021 Phone Call There Was No Fraud in 2020 Election

 The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hoft

"In late December 2020, President Trump made a call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger asking him to look at some of the items that were uncovered by his auditor.

"There was plenty of evidence for a competent auditor or any man of integrity to know that the election was uncertifiable.

"Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger’s office secretly recorded the phone call with President Trump, then lied about its contents later when they leaked it to the far-left Washington Post.

"Raffensperger’s office ran to the Washington Post and leaked a fraudulent transcript of the call." 

"Georgia Chairman of the Republican Party David Shafer later revealed that Raffensperger and Fuchs lied to the Washington Post about Trump, demanding that they “find the fraud.”

"Then, after they leaked their version of the story to the Washington Post, they deleted the audio of the call.

"The audio file was later found in the laptop’s “trash” folder. . .

Maine: The nightmare scenario we are now facing

But even if the spineless members of the GOP did in fact give in to Democrat demands and put Biden into office, this would set off a chain reaction amongst Republican voters who simply could not abide by such an abdication of duty, which would largely result in a massive restructuring of the country in a way that is not even comprehensible. 

 Timothy Jankowski - American Thinker   "Not since Gavrilo Princips assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 has the politically-motivated action of a single individual threatened to plunge an entire nation into strife and crisis like the decision by Maine’s Democrat Secretary of State, Shenna Bellows, to keep Donald Trump off of the state’s primary ballot.

"Does that sound like hyperbole? Allow me to explain.

"Donald Trump’s path to re-election in 2024 is simple: Hold the red states that he won in 2020, which he should do with ease, and win back the swing states of Wisconsin, Arizona, and Georgia. That outcome would result with him receiving 270 electoral votes, the exact margin needed to regain the presidency.

"The push to remove Trump from state ballots is largely irrelevant. He’s not going to be removed from any red state ballots and there are no signs he will be removed from the aforementioned swing states. Even if every blue state were to keep him off the ballot, the scenario laid out above would remain not just possible, but likely… with one exception: the state of Maine. Unlike most states which apportion their electoral votes on a winner-take-all basis, Maine divides its four electoral votes by Congressional districts; in 2020 Biden won three, while Trump managed to win one from the more rural, conservative region of the state.

"Now let’s assume that the election plays out in the highly likely possible manner as suggested, with the caveat that Trump is not on the ballot in Maine. This means he will lose one of the votes he held in 2020 bringing his electoral vote count to 269, one vote short of the number needed to win. The result will be an electoral college tie meaning the election will be thrown to the House of Representatives to decide." . . .

Remember the insane   . . ."As in Colorado, they throw the 14th Amendment and “insurrection” accusation at former President Trump.

"The problem is that Mr. Trump has not been convicted of an insurrection, or for that matter, even charged in a court of law.  To my knowledge no one arrested on January 6th was charged with the “I” word either.  I guess that’s what happens when a mob of people shows up without guns.

“ 'Insurrectionist” has now joined “racist” as the new “shut down all dialogue” buzz word in the Democrats’ vocabulary.  

"My guess is that Maine’s Secretary of State knows that this insane idea will be overturned by the Supreme Court.  She is only doing this to add some value to her resumé, or maybe to get a show on MSNBC.  Once the Supreme Court (hopefully) shoots this down, she will say that the justices appointed by the “insurrectionist” protected Trump.

"In the meantime, the people who burned businesses and police stations are walking free because that was definitely not an insurrection." . . .  

Lawfare Continues - Maine Democrat Secretary of State Determines, Without Judicial Hearing, Donald Trump Is Disqualified from 2024 GOP Primary Ballot

. . .The Maine decision by fiat will likely first travel through the judicial system in the state, as the determination of the Secretary of State holds no legal basis outside the authority granted to an individual office holder." . . .  But she will be a hero.

Jonathan Turley Decimates the Decision of the Maine Sec of State . . ."George Washington professor Jonathan Turley decimated her decision in a thread on X.

He said he had decided to "add her name to the ignoble list of Democratic officials claiming to defend democracy by preventing its exercise for millions of Trump supporters" and that "Maine shows why the Court needs to rule quickly, clearly, and hopefully unanimously in rejecting this pernicious theory."

"He did not think much of her reasoning." . . . 

A look inside the largest Hamas tunnel ever discovered by the Israeli military

IDF destroys Hamas tunnel in Palestine Square where leaders hid during Oct. 7 attack (msn.com)   Video "The IDF blew up an extensive Hamas tunnel system hidden beneath Gaza’s Palestine Square where terrorist leaders hid during the Oct. 7 attack on Israel — as officials said the ground offensive in the north is nearing an end.

"The Israeli military released video Thursday of a huge series of explosions demolishing the tunnels in the upscale Rimal neighborhood in Gaza City that once housed Hamas’ upper echelons.

"Col. Benny Aharon, who gave a tour to reporters two days before the demolition, said the homes and offices of Hamas’ top Gaza leader Yahya Sinwar and military chief Muhammad Deif were linked to the tunnel network, The Times of Israel reports.

"Also located in the ritzy neighborhood was the home of the daughter of Hamas’ top political leader, Ismail Haniyeh.". . .

A look inside the largest Hamas tunnel ever discovered by the Israeli military (msn.com)     "As Israel says it’s almost destroyed Hamas’ brigades in northern Gaza, its forces  are preparing to blow up some of the hundreds of tunnels it says belonged to the militant group — including one large enough to drive a car through.

"NBC News was invited into Gaza by the Israel Defense Forces on Wednesday to take a look at what it says is the largest tunnel discovered so far. 

"The entrance is roughly a quarter-mile or a 10-minute walk from the destroyed Erez border crossing, which was breached by Hamas terrorists as they launched multipronged attacks on Israel on Oct. 7. 

"The IDF said the tunnel is roughly 2.5 miles long and extends all the way to Gaza City, the enclave’s largest city, although NBC News could not independently verify this claim." . . .
