Joe Biden spends his Memorial Day weekend celebrating George Floyd

Why cannot Democrats feel shame over what they have become? The generation that gave us Antifa and honors Hamas is the one Biden panders to here. Sadly, he may be right. As British Journalist Sophie Corcoran bitterly noted:

The Tunnel Dweller

 Monica Showalter - American Thinker


The Memorial Day weekend is on us, so quite a few people were surprised to see Joe Biden tweeting about this instead of our selfless servicemen who paid the ultimate sacrifice: . . .

. . ."Nothing good came of the death of George Floyd, a career criminal whose death, while a tragedy for him, was a pretty preventable one. As for the public, his death and the radical response, driven to some extent by Cuban and Venezuelan agents, was a disaster.

"Yet even though someone called May 25 "George Floyd Day," it's outrageous to see it cut into the Memorial Day weekend, which is a period of solemn observance for those servicemen and servicewomen who gave their lives for something good -- our country.

"Biden's nattering on about Floyd at the most inappropriate of times calls to mind that he's been pretty hellish as commander in chief. He has yet to make right the COVID vaccine mandate which drove many topflight members of the service from the service. Military housing remains dilapidated, while military paychecks have been ravaged by Bidenflation.

"Biden lost Afghanistan, leaving that country in shambles and in the hands of the Taliban while our enemies snickered. Worse still, thirteen U.S. servicemembers lost their lives at the hands of these monsters and Biden stared at his watch as their coffins were brought into the U.S. He silenced the families of these servicemembers who paid the ultimate sacrifice at his State of the Union address. And as Memorial Day rolls around, he has yet to bring up these casualties of his military incompetence, who ought to be honored on Memorial Day.

"He has since lost a major military base in Niger while U.S. troops were held hostage, gotten the U.S. mired in a war in Ukraine, and foolishly schemed to use the U.S. military to build a pier to Gaza for humanitarian aid has since seen broken off and fallen away and washed onto some Gaza beach, $350 million down the drain.

"Memorial Day is a special day, it's not to honor veterans, or first responders, however worthy they genuinely are. It's to honor the fallen in U.S. wars and nothing else." . . .

 That Biden has yet to understand this, and instead demonstrates that it's somehow about George Floyd only goes to underscore how unfit he is as commander in chief.

Biden Campaign Gets Dismantled by Tim Scott for Dishonest Ad

 Rebecca Downs (townhall.com)  

Bash segued into talking about the dishonest Biden ad by bringing up the Bronx rally that Trump held last Thursday.  

Bookworm Room

. . ."More recently, in his remarks from March, Trump was clearly talking about "a bloodbath" in the economic sense, specifically to do with the U.S. auto industry.

"Those remarks abut how he "vowed to be a dictator" were clearly made in jest, as he himself confirmed. If anyone "wants revenge on his enemies," that would be Biden, championing the criminal trials against Trump as a form of election interference. 

"That the Biden campaign would target black voters specifically with such an ad is interesting. Do they think that black voters are not informed enough to see through the lies?

"As the clip aired for CNN viewers, Scott was specifically asked "what do you say to black Americans, black voters who watch that ad and share those concerns about Donald Trump?" He's been a fitting campaign surrogate for Trump since he endorsed him for president ahead of the New Hampshire Primary in January, despite himself running for president, though he dropped out last November. This includes assisting with getting Trump support from black voters." . . .


Fed Up With Anti-Israel Demonstrations On College Campuses? 60% Of All Voters Agree

  I&I/TIPP Poll – Issues & Insights

"Americans are fed up with it, and overwhelmingly oppose the campus activism supporting it. It doesn’t at all seem unlikely that this is yet another thing that registered voters will have on their minds when they step into the voting booth in November."

. . ."Many average Americans expressed shock at the sudden violent, and well-organized, demonstrations and tent cities that sprang up at universities around the nation, largely in support of Hamas and the destruction of Israel.

"A solid majority of Americans are not happy with this, according to May’s national online I&I/TIPP Poll of 1,435 adults, taken May 1-3. Some 60% of all those said they either disapprove “somewhat” (18%) or “strongly” (42%) with the demonstrations.

"The poll has a margin of error of +/-2.6 percentage points.

"A far smaller total of 24% said they either supported the demonstrations “strongly” (9%) or “somewhat” (15%). Another 16% said they were “not sure.”

"But the repudiation of the demonstrations is not across the board, at least when it comes to the demographics of the respondents.

"Among Democrats, for instance, 32% said they supported the demonstrations and encampments, while a mere plurality of 48% said they didn’t support the activities.

"That compares with 16% of Republicans and 22% of independents who expressed support, with 73% and 61%, respectively, responding that they did not support the at-times violent demonstrations." . . .

Cruz Flips the Script on Code Pink When They Try to Corner Him, Exposes What They're Really About

 


Nick Arama – RedState  "As we reported. last week, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) demolished Antony Blinken when the Secretary of State testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee regarding Joe Biden's catastrophic foreign policy. In particular, he ripped into Blinken about how they'd helped our enemies and alienated our friends, and how the world was much more dangerous as a result. He pointed out how, despite their claimed sanctions against Iran, Iran had increased the number of barrels of oil it was selling from 300,000 to two million a day. 

"But there was a little bit more drama after that beatdown when Code Pink tried to do a "gotcha moment" on him in the hallway coming out of the hearing. Imagine people being this twisted to act as though it's Israel that's the evil one in the fight for their lives against the Hamas terrorists. But Cruz was ready and delivered a healthy dose of reality to the radical activists.". . .

Douglas Murray: ICC’s Karim Khan ‘playing right into the hands of Hamas’

Youtube   "Author Douglas Murray has called out ICC chief prosecutor Karim Khan as an “ideologue” who is “playing right into the hands of Hamas”.

"The ICC is seeking arrest warrants for three leaders of Hamas, as well as Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Defence Minister. " ;[ICC prosecutor Karim Khan] is an ideologue. The court has no jurisdiction over this, and it is simply a smear,” Mr Murray told Sky News host Rita Panahi. “ 'Khan is playing right into the hands of Hamas, whether he means to do so or not.”


What the top U.S. Nazi hunter thinks of claims that Israel is committing genocide

 Gabby Deutch (jewishinsider.com) 

“That is how World War II ended in Europe on May 8, 1945. We, the Allies, did not say to the Hitler regime, ‘Well, OK, you will have a permanent cease-fire, but you can stay in power and you can have a few battalions of mobile killing units.’ No, it doesn’t work that way,” Rosenbaum said.

 For more than four decades, Eli Rosenbaum’s job was to track down the bad guys: He was a professional Nazi hunter, the leader of a famed Justice Department unit that pioneered unique methods to uncover evidence of Nazi atrocities and bring Nazis to justice decades past the end of World War II. Before he retired early this year, he led a special DOJ team tasked with identifying Russian war criminals who were violating international law in Ukraine.

"Rosenbaum thinks there’s another genocide happening today, or at least that the world is on the precipice of one. But it’s not the genocide that’s currently being prosecuted at the Interational Court of Justice, which is considering whether Israel is committing a genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. No — the only possible genocide Rosenbaum sees is the genocidal intent of Hamas, and he told Jewish Insider he’s shocked to see so many people in halls of power and on college campuses argue that Israel is at fault in its retaliatory war.

"“I see a lot through the prism of World War II, which was the last time that the Jews were targeted for annihilation, the last genocide of the Jews,” Rosenbaum said in a wide-ranging interview last week. “It’s Hamas that can stop this war, not Israel, in my view, but there isn’t anything close to sufficient understanding of that out in the world. It’s just an unprecedented threat. It’s — and it pains me to say this — a credible threat of genocide,” Rosenbaum added, referring to the threat that Hamas still poses to Israel.

"Now that he’s out of government and able to speak freely about current events, Rosenbaum wants to use his voice to right what he thinks is a morally wrong view of what’s happening in the Middle East. His experience in prosecuting perpetrators of the world’s worst crime is what guides his thinking on the matter.

“ 'I’ve worked on Nazi cases for all those decades, and I just see a lot through that lens,” he said. On a trip to Israel early this year, he visited a cousin who lives in Holon, a suburb of Tel Aviv. The family’s safe room is a small room under the stairs with reinforced walls. That’s where they hide when red-alert rocket sirens go off in central Israel, warning of a rocket attack from Gaza.

" 'It was very, very sad, and to me kind of evokes images of the Holocaust of Jews hiding under floorboards and in closets and wherever they could,” said Rosenbaum." . . .

Democrats’ latest bad poll: 1 in 5 Latino voters considers party switch

  Vox

"Since 2020, one of the major questions hanging over the 2024 election is whether Latino voters will continue to ditch Democrats in favor of the GOP. Now, a new national poll of Latino voters offers some warning signs for Republicans as well as Democrats as the general election crystallizes: A sizable chunk of Latino voters appear to be willing to rethink their party loyalties.

"Some 19.4 percent, or about one in five Latino voters, say they have considered changing their political affiliation either by switching parties or becoming independents, according to a national survey released by Florida International University (FIU) and the marketing firm Adsmovil. A majority of those wavering voters (61.1 percent) say they’d be open to leaving the Democratic Party and a plurality of those Democratic waverers (38.1 percent) would become Republicans.

"Though that’s a small share of all Latino voters, that’s still a significant number for a demographic group whose loyalty to Democrats has been eroding since Donald Trump’s presidency." . . .

Hillary Clinton Blames Women Voters for her Loss to Trump

 Karen Townsend – HotAir 

Hillary lost because she was unlikeable. She didn't bother to campaign in Wisconsin. She called half the country 'deplorables.' She deserved to lose to her former friend Donald Trump. 

  "Hillary Clinton has blamed everyone under the sun for her loss in 2016 to Donald Trump, except herself. Eight years later, she blames women voters for not supporting her run for president.

"Hillary gave an extensive interview for a book coming out about abortion and the Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs that sent abortion back to the states. She criticized Democrats for not fighting harder against former President Trump's choices for the Supreme Court. 

"Clinton said she lost women voters because of the investigation into her use of a private email server. There was also the matter of the thousands of emails she deleted. 

Clinton reflected on the role that sexism played in the 2016 campaign, claiming that FBI director James Comey re-opened a last-minute investigation into her private email to raise questions about her judgment, calling her “extremely careless.”

That widely-covered move cost her the race — and the female vote, she speculated.

“But once he did that to me, the people, the voters who left me, were women,” she told the Times.

“They left me because they just couldn’t take a risk on me, because as a woman, I’m supposed to be perfect. They were willing to take a risk on Trump — who had a long list of, let’s call them flaws, to illustrate his imperfection — because he was a man, and they could envision a man as president and commander in chief.”

"Poor Hillary. Always the victim." . . .

Tulsi Gabbard Exposes The DARK TRUTH About Hillary’s Evil Machine

"Lets crank it up here, Sir"; Biden West Point Speech: Brain Breaks, Tells Tall Tales, 'Please Clap' Moment, With Embarrassing End; UPDATED, 5/27

RedState "Joe Biden is in Wilmington, Delaware, for yet another vacation. He did, however, take a brief sojourn from the vacation to go to West Point to deliver the commencement address. 

"Biden previously gave a commencement address that got heavily criticized -- and rightly so -- for being a race-baiting mess. " . . .
"Other speakers spoke about what leadership meant and duty, honor, and country. What a thought, that you have Biden then speaking to them -- a man who constantly lies and makes up things out of whole cloth. And he went right there, with another huge lie, when he finally spoke to the class. He of course spoke about football. He said that he was given an appointment to the Naval Academy but he claimed he didn't go because Roger Staubach and Joe Bellino were playing there. 

. . ." 'Never forget that America is the strongest when we lead not only by the example of our power but the power of our example," he said. Then no one clapped, and that apparently irked him. "You can clap for that," he groused.

"Then came the diplomas.  But this was something else. After Biden had been handing out the diplomas for a short while, he was interrupted by one of the West Point officials and moved to the back. You can hear the officer say, "Let's crank it up," and then they had to speed up the process: 

UPDATE, 5/27: comment from "students" on Biden's speech:

Some answers from 'Joe Biden delivered a speech at U.S. Military Academy at West Point today. What do you think the students there think of him?'

Gerald F: 'What any non-Woke American soldier would think: What the Hell did we do to deserve this shambling cadaver's stumbling accolades?'

Dave J: 'Those of polite, conservative leanings and background, were quietly embarrassed and sad. Those of liberal leanings, were ideologically blinkered and wallowed in the glory of his blithering senility and ineptitude.'

Susan M: 'I hope they were disgusted but I didn't hear it.'

 

A terrorist dry run

  Mike McDaniel - American Thinker. . ."Two Jordanians who may have been doing a “dry run for Al Qaeda or ISIS” have been arrested after allegedly trying to scam and then ram their way onto a US marine base in Virginia with a truck.

AF Branco

. . ."Was this a dry run for a car bombing attack? Obviously it was an intelligence gathering mission, but to what end and for which terrorist group(s)? Thus far, all the Biden Terrorist Welcoming Administration has suggested is both will be deported.

"Deported?! Two illegals, almost certainly Muslims from a nation not particularly fond of America, try to force their way onto a Marine base, and the government isn’t releasing any additional information and is sending them back to their handlers?

"Despite increasing warnings about imminent terrorist attacks, the Biden Administration obviously doesn’t consider informing the public politically smart. Trying to preserve and protect Hamas doesn’t fit well with effectively dealing with terrorist dry runs on CONUS military installations.

"Not only is Biden negotiating for terrorists, he’s making more than clear Muslim votes are far more important than the lives of our CONUS troops and dependents. What a surprise."

Like terrorists in the White House - Lynne Lechter . . ."Which brings us to Israel. When Hamas jumped over the border from Gaza and brutally gang-raped, mutilated, burned alive, beheaded and kidnapped Israelis and foreign nationals staying in Israel, Biden rushed to Israel's side, stating unequivocally that he stood with Israel. Until he didn’t.

"Eventually thwarted by Biden,  who slowed Israel’s military progress with impossible demands to protect the “innocent Gazans,” over seven and one half months later, more than one hundred and twenty hostages, dead or alive, remain in the hands of the Hamas butchers.
"Jew-hatred has swept a good portion of the world, with many nations wishing  to punish Hamas by giving it a Palestinian state.  America, with taxpayer money,  has built a pier on Gaza’s shore to facilitate aid to its “refugee camps,” which in every other place would be referred to as cities.
"Meanwhile, President Biden is focused on being re-elected in November.  Will his terrorism reign for another four years?  Can America, as we have known it, survive if he does?"

Israeli authorities show international journalists 'raw, gruesome' footage of Israeli deaths

Israeli authorities show international journalists 'raw, gruesome' footage of Israeli deaths (youtube.com)

"Overnight, Israeli authorities took the extraordinary step of calling international media into a private briefing room to show "raw and gruesome" footage of Hamas terrorists killing innocent Israelis on October 7, says Sky News host Sharri Markson. ""Israeli authorities felt the international media were downplaying, or even denying, what had unfolded in these terror attacks," Ms Markson said. " 'They say the lies are similar to the phenomenon of Holocaust deniers." "Ms Markson said 100 international journalists viewed the footage from October 7 on Monday night with some bursting into tears as they saw beheadings, torture and murder. " 'Israel showed journalists this footage because it needs the world to understand what happened in order to explain why Israel is fighting back so forcefully."



"Only people who suffer from mental disorders think that Hamas' brutality is normal. And only barbaric people can still justify Hamas' brutal actions against innocent people; babies, children, the elderly and innocent civilians. The world has turned upside down, between good and evil there is almost no difference anymore just because of the interests of religion, ethnicity, tribe, country, race, background etc. What great demon has possessed your soul that such brutality is considered innocent and even defended and protected?"
"Douglas Murray has described the horrors he witnessed in the aftermath of Hamas' terror massacres in southern Israel. "In a powerful and emotional speech, the Sun columnist spoke about visiting morgues and those murdered were being identified. "He described the Hamas terror organisation as a 'death cult' and heaped praise on Israel's response. "Israel is expected to expand its operation in Rafah in the coming days as it aims to destroy Hamas' remaining battalions and find its leaders including Yahya Sinwar."

More than two dozen House Democrats blast Biden holding back Israel military aid, say it 'emboldens' Hamas

 NY Post (nypost.com)

“ 'As the President confirmed after October 7, Hamas must be ‘eliminated entirely,’” they added, reminding Biden of his other commitments to America’s closest ally in the Middle East early in the war." So there ARE good Democrats.


"More than two dozen House Democrats led by Rep. Josh Gottheimer told national security adviser Jake Sullivan on Friday they were “deeply concerned” about President Biden’s decision to withhold military aid from Israel.

"Gottheimer (D-NJ) and 25 of his fellow lawmakers wrote in a letter to Sullivan obtained by The Post that “withholding weapons shipments to Israel … only emboldens our mutual enemies, including Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and other Iranian-backed proxies.”

" 'Seven months after October 7, the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the end of the Holocaust, Iranian-backed terrorist proxies continue to fire rockets and mortars into Israel and at Americans from all directions,” they wrote. “At the same time, antisemitism is spreading globally like wildfire.” . . .

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Thursday that the paused shipment included 1,800 2,000-pound bombs and 1,700 500-pound bombs.

“He does not want certain categories of American weapons used in a particular type of operation in a particular place,” she said. “We have to make sure that we protect those 1.5 million civilian lives [in Rafah].”

Palestinians always seek the murder of Jews. Update from the past: 2011 Itamar attack was a terrorist attack on an Israeli family in the Israeli settlement of Itamar in the West Bank that took place on 11 March 2011, in which five members of the same family were murdered in their beds. The victims were the father Ehud (Udi) Fogel, the mother Ruth Fogel, and three of their six children—Yoav, 11, Elad, 4, and Hadas, the youngest, a three-month-old infant. The infant was decapitated.[4] The settlement of Itamar had been the target of several murderous attacks before these killings.[5]

"Amjad Awad and Hakim Awad, two young Palestinian cousins from the village of Awarta, were arrested for the murders. On 5 June 2011 the two men were indicted on five counts of murder, stealing weapons, breaking and entering, and conspiracy to commit a crime. Both were later convicted. They initially denied any involvement in the attack[6] but later proudly confessed to the murders,[7] expressing no remorse and reenacting the attack before security officials.[8]". . . They were taught a decade ago to hate Jews.
