Dazed and Confused: Biden gives disastrous debate performance of epic proportions ; UPDATED

 Sharyl Attkisson

"Biden was first to call names during the debate, looking at Trump and snarling that Trump is a “loser” and a “sucker.” Biden also cussed several times, and repeatedly referred to Trump as a “whiner.' ”


"Even entering the stage with low expectations, President Joe Biden’s debate performance stands out as arguably the worst presidential debate performance in our time.

"The president frequently appeared confused and befuddled as he stammered and stumbled through answers to the moderator’s questions, lost his place, and attempted snappy comebacks in a voice that was faltering and difficult to hear.

"Early in the debate, Biden froze entirely for approximately ten seconds, rescued by one of the moderators who moved along quickly to the next question without acknowledging the obviously remarkable moment.

"In contrast, former President Donald Trump displayed a focused, controlled, and in-command performance.

"Biden frequently self-corrected his words including from “millions” to “billions,” from “century” to “decade,” and from “millionaries” to “billionaires.” But he often made errors and mistakes without correcting himself, and rambled on incoherently.

"In one particularly difficult exchange, a moderator asked Biden if he supports legal limits on how late in pregnancy a woman should be able to get an abortion. 

"Biden answered: “I supported Roe v Wade, which had three trimesters. First time is between a woman and a doctor. Second time is between a doctor and an extreme situation. A third time is betwen the doctor I mean, between the woman and the state.”

"At times Biden seemed to know what he wanted to express, but had trouble communicating his thoughts. He said “Fentanyl is down,” but was unclear on whether he meant illegal importation, use, deaths, or some other facet. He also said that “We beat Medicare,” leaving the audience to wonder what he was trying to convey." . . .

We just witnessed the end of Joe Biden's presidency (nypost.com)  "Joe Biden’s performance during the debate was embarrassing. "Whenever CNN put him up on the split screen, he had a thousand-yard stare. "He didn’t look old. He looked ancient. He looked empty.

Joe Biden's Blank Stare | Know Your Meme    


CNN Host: Biden Knew ‘Every One of These Questions Was Coming’ and Still Blew the Debate – PJ Media   . . ."Biden took a week off being president for debate prep, and his performance still became the most universally panned in the history of presidential debates. It wasn't even close. Nothing Trump said mattered because the biggest question of the night was whether Biden would prove he was capable of handling the presidency. He clearly failed in that objective.

Keep in mind that the deck was heavily stacked in Biden's favor. He had not only taken a week off for debate prep but the debate setting and rules were based on his demands. He didn't want an audience, he wanted microphones muted when it wasn't the candidate's turn, and he wanted the debates hosted by far-left media outlets.

And, according to CNN's Erin Burnett, he may have gotten the questions in advance.

"He goes through six days of preparation at Camp David," Burnett observed. "And they know the rules.” "It was more than a week," Chris Wallace pointed out." . . . The footage speaks for itself.

A System Run By Illiterate Imbeciles

 Matt Walsh (dailywire.com)

"We’re now all very familiar with the catastrophe that is Fulton County, Georgia’s attempt to prosecute Donald Trump on RICO charges."

"One of the benefits of our whole federal system, at least in theory, is that it provides some insulation from bad government. If your state is being run into the ground by incompetent politicians, then you can just move to another state. And if a local politician is doing a terrible job, then at least he’s not wrecking the rest of the country. The damage is contained. 

"That’s the idea, anyway. And there are about a million reasons why that’s not true anymore. Exhibit A is the series of ongoing and deeply embarrassing disasters that are unfolding at the moment in Atlanta, Georgia and its surrounding metro area. There’s no other way to say this: Because the principles of federalism are no longer really operative, Atlanta’s dysfunction poses a direct threat to the entire country. You can’t get away from it simply by fleeing the state of Georgia. It’s all encompassing.

H/T John Uhrig

"We’re now all very familiar with the catastrophe that is Fulton County, Georgia’s attempt to prosecute Donald Trump on RICO charges. The lead prosecutor, Fani Willis, saw the trial as an opportunity to promote her boyfriend and shower him with taxpayer money, then she apparently lied about it to the court. She also tried to play the sassy woman when she testified about this conflict of interest, which somehow managed to lower public confidence in her office even further. That’s all well-documented.

"On top of that, just this week, former Georgia Senator Kelly Loeffler asked why Fulton County officials are reportedly attempting to destroy 2020 election ballots before they can be inspected."

No Haven for Hamas

 Matthew Continetti (freebeacon.com)

"Enough with the ceasefires. Put the plans back in the briefcase, Mr. Secretary. Let Israel win."


"Secretary of State Antony Blinken's eighth trip to the Middle East since the terrorist atrocities of October 7, 2023, has gone about as well as the previous seven. That is to say: Not well at all.

"Blinken went to the region to pressure Israel and Hamas into accepting President Biden's latest ceasefire proposal for the war in Gaza. Biden released the plan on May 31. It would proceed in three stages.

"First, there would be a six-week truce during which Hamas would release some hostages in exchange for terrorists held in Israel, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) would withdraw from Gaza's population centers, and Americans would supply more humanitarian aid for Gaza's Palestinians. The second phase would involve negotiations over full IDF withdrawal from Gaza and the release of the remaining captives. In the third phase, the "international community" would rebuild Gaza, a non-Hamas government would come to power, Saudi Arabia and Israel would make peace, and the oceans would turn into pink lemonade.

"I'm kidding about the lemonade.

"Still, there is something absurd about the offer in general. It rests on the assumption that Hamas is a legitimate negotiating partner with an interest in ending the war. Such an assumption is worse than false. It is insane. And Blinken knows it.

"Hamas isn't a state worthy of recognition. It's a terrorist entity governing a population through fear, terror, and zealotry. Which is why Americans deal not with Hamas but with Hamas's intermediaries in Egypt and Qatar. We still have some scruples, after all. And if a terror organization does not deserve our direct contact, then it does not deserve our rescue.

"Nor is Hamas interested in bringing the Gaza war to a close. As the secretary of state was engaged in another round of shuffle diplomacy, desultorily flying from capital to capital with nothing to show for it, the Wall Street Journal published a blockbuster story confirming what some of us already knew: Hamas's psychopathic terror leader, Yahya Sinwar, follows Vladimir Lenin's dictum of "the worse, the better." The greater the number of Palestinian casualties, the greater the devastation to Gaza's infrastructure, the further isolated the Jewish state becomes, and the more anti-Semitism intensifies around the globe." . . . 


BREAKING: Jack Smith's January 6 Case Against President Trump Torpedoed After Supreme Court Overturns 1512(c)(2) Obstruction Charge

The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila   "The US Supreme Court on Friday delivered a devastating blow to Biden’s corrupt Justice Department and overturned the obstruction charge used to jail hundreds of January 6 defendants.

"Biden’s corrupt DOJ charged more than 300 J6ers with 18 USC §1512(c)(2). Additionally, two of the four charges against Trump in Jack Smith’s DC case are conspiracy to obstruct so the Supreme Court’s ruling on Friday torpedoed the special counsel’s case against Trump as well.

"The Supreme Court earlier this year heard oral arguments in Fischer v. United States and at issue was statute 18 USC §1512(c)(2):

"Whoever corruptly—

(1) alters, destroys, mutilates, or conceals a record, document, or other object, or attempts to do so, with the intent to impair the object’s integrity or availability for use in an official proceeding; or

(2) otherwise obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding, or attempts to do so, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.

"On Friday, in a 6-3 vote, the court holds that to prove a violation of the law, the government must show that the defendant impaired the availability or integrity for use in an official proceeding of records, documents, objects, or other things used in an official proceeding, or attempted to do so.

" 'To prove a violation of Section 1512(c)(2), the Government must establish that the defendant impaired the availability or integrity for use in an official proceeding of rec-ords, documents, objects, or as we earlier explained, other things used in the proceeding, or attempted to do so. See supra, at 9. The judgment of the D. C. Circuit is therefore vacated, and the case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. On remand, the D. C. Circuit may assess the sufficiency of Count Three of Fischer’s indictment in light of our interpretation of Section 1512(c)(2),” the opinion reads.

"Jack Smith’s DC case against Trump is toast!" . . .


Meet The Anti-White, Cop Hating Man In A Dress Just Promoted At The White House

Susan Duclos  (allnewspipeline.com)

With so much going on, nationally and internationally, other things slip through the cracks, but some of the less reported news sometimes shows more than just what is on the surface.                                                  "For example, the Biden regime just promoted someone to the position of Interior Department spokesperson at the White House, and while that doesn't sound like earth shattering news on its face, the choice, like so many of the regime's employees, is a direct slap in the face of the American public.                                                                                  "Before detailing the many ways this promotion, like others, is just a big FU to all but about 1% of U.S. citizen, let us introduce the "man," and I do use that term very loosely, that was just promoted, but has worked at the White House for three years.            "Ladies and Gentlemen, meet former Interior Department spokesperson Tyler Cherry, and newly promoted associate communications director at the White House." . . .

"Ok, I am being mean by making fun of how Mr. Cherry, Levine and Brinton, dresses, at least that is what the LGBT community would accuse me of, so let us see why else why this hire alone, never mind promotion, of this man, is a huge FU to any red blooded American patriot.The following is from Fox News:   • Tyler Cherry sparked controversy last year after social media posts surfaced in which he blasted law enforcement and promoted "Russiagate."

• "Praying for #Baltimore, but praying even harder for an end to a capitalistic police state motivated by explicit and implicit racial biases," Cherry posted in 2015 amid riots that were sparked following the death of Freddie Gray, a Black man, in police custody in Baltimore.

• "Apt (sic.) time to recall that the modern day police system is a direct evolution of slave patrols and lynch mobs," he stated in a separate post months later.

• "The Tea Party was never about the debt/deficit but about racism and white grievance politics," he wrote on X.

"As we will show below, Cherry also like to virtue signal by hating on White people.This means that he hates himself as well, since he is white."

America Is A Mess Because Of Democrat Policies, Not Just Biden

 Don’t buy the spin. Swapping Biden out for a shiny new Democrat won’t save America. Kylee Griswold(thefederalist.com) 

It isn’t just Biden that’s ruined America. It’s his party.

 "CNN spent the hour after Thursday’s presidential debate in an emotional tailspin. But at the heart of their desperate “analysis” was speculation about whether the fumbling Biden should step down to let another Democrat jump in to carry the torch of “DEMOCRACY.” 

"The jig is up. Here’s what disillusioned Democrats and independents and moderates need to know. What all the blue-state refugees who now live in Texas and Florida instead of California and New York City need to admit. What all the fed-up middle-class families and forgotten nonwhite voters in the suburbs need to remember: These aren’t just Joe Biden policies that are disastrous. They’re Democrat policies. 

"Abortion. Economy. Crime. Immigration. Lawfare. Foreign policy. Health care. It doesn’t matter what pet issue has voters down in the dumps. Democrats are in lockstep on the losing side. And anywhere they aren’t in lockstep — like on whether Israel is a victim of terrorism or a group of oppressive “colonizers” — they tow the radical line.

You think a Democrat switcheroo is magically going to secure the border and end the unmitigated illegal alien crime wave? (And lest you’ve been captive to the corporate media spin, here are a few of many examples of such atrocities.) Not a chance. Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, Biden’s expanded asylum, repeal of Remain in Mexico, outrage over shipping migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, support for ripping down border razor wire, and playing footsie with Mexican cartels are all fruits of the same poisonous tree: Democrats’ antipathy for the U.S. border. It’s delusional to think the governor of sanctuary-state California, for instance — a possible 2024 replacement — would be a workable substitute for Biden.

The same goes for Democrats’ abortion radicalism. Now, Donald Trump isn’t nearly as pro-life as I and many other conservatives and Christians are or would like him to be. But there’s absolutely no doubt he’s the moderate on the issue in 2024. After 50 years of unconstitutional Roe v. Wade supremacy, former president Trump nominated the Supreme Court justices that overturned the abominable precedent. He now advocates for about as moderate an abortion position as you can get: Leave it to the states. So California and Florida can enact opposite laws, and the other 48 can do everything in between." . . .

Michelle Obama Is REFUSING To Campaign For Biden, Here’s Why

  * 100PercentFedUp.com * by Anthony T  "A new report revealed that former First Lady Michelle Obama had not been campaigning for Biden due to personal frustrations with the Biden family. 

" 'Fox News reported that Michelle Obama expressed “private frustrations” with the Bidens due to their treatment of her friend Kathleen Buhle, who previously divorced Hunter Biden.

"Buhle and Michelle Obama became friends while her husband was president and Joe Biden was vice president.

"Hunter Biden and Kathleen Buhle divorced in 2017, and Buhle has since been exiled from the Biden family, which has angered Michelle.

"Michelle Obama has also distanced herself from Biden after Hunter Biden started dating his late brother Beau’s wife.

"Michelle reportedly described the relationship as “weird sh*t.”

"Check out what Fox News reported:

Michelle Obama has expressed private frustration with the Bidens over the treatment of her friend Kathleen Buhle after her divorce from Hunter Biden. It has made her reluctant to openly campaign for the president, according to a new report.

Joe Biden FLOPS In First Presidential Debate!

 "Biden said when Trump tried to deny that Biden’s 2020 run was inspired by the deadly white supremacist riots in Charlottesville, Va. three years earlier. ‘I ran because I was worried a guy like this could be president.’ The media knows this is a lie, yet accused Trump of lying instead of Biden."  Jack Hellner

The Left MELTS DOWN | OutKick The Show w/ Clay Travis - YouTube 



Dems teeing up for change of candidate - American Thinker   "Sorry, not falling for the drama and the crocodile tears of the Democrats after Thursday’s presidential debate. The Dems are teeing up for a change of candidate and needed all of America to see the pathetic state of President Joe Biden to justify their move.

"Within minutes of the debate between Biden and President Donald Trump, I got the suspicion that something wasn’t right. First, Biden stuttered and appeared weak in his opening comments, which made me think that whatever he was given for past high profile speeches and debates, was curiously absent.

"On top of that, what reality have we fallen into when CNN moderators Jake Tapper and Dana Bash allowed Trump to make most of his points without cutting him off? The moderators even allowed Trump to get in some choice stingers that left marks on Good Old Joe.

"I texted some friends during the debate that Dems are setting the stage for a new candidate and that post-debate pundits would begin the narrative that Biden must be replaced. Hardly a revelation to anyone paying attention.

"As soon as the debate ended, the narrative began. Whether it was CNN, CBS, Fox, or any of the other alphabet networks, the refrain was the same: Biden looked terrible." . . .

Joe Biden’s biggest lies from last night - Jack Hellner  "Since the media won’t do a fact check on Joe Biden, I will do it for them. Here is a small sample…

The border patrol endorsed him—in fact, the exact opposite was true, with the Border Patrol Union fact-checking him in the moment, making sure that lie was killed, and quickly: 

 "Border crossings now are lower than under Trump. Terrorists aren’t coming in—except the terrorists who were caught plotting an ISIS-style attack earlier this month, the terrorists doing a dry-run at the U.S. Marine base, and all the other instances that are too numerous to list.

"He beat Medicare—huh? Like Trump said, Biden “beat it to death.” 

 "No military members have died under his watch. Does Afghanistan ring a bell? The Tower 22 drone attack? Navy SEALs going after emboldened and financed Houthis?" . . .

The Nation Finally Got To See The Real Biden — The One The Press Has Been Hiding All These Years

  Issues & Insights (issuesinsights.com)


"Many if not most Americans tuning into the debate Thursday night were probably shocked at President Joe Biden’s performance.

"He was confused and tired. He mumbled and bumbled through his answers. He looked at times despondent. He had trouble keeping focused. His closing statement was perhaps the worst in the history of presidential debates. And this was after spending a week at Camp David resting and preparing.

"Anyone who was surprised by his performance should be asking themselves Why? Why didn’t they know how bad a state Biden is in? How did the White House keep this under wraps for so long?

"The president is, after all, the most public of public figures. His every move is scrutinized. It is true that the White House minimized Biden’s public appearances, and kept them short and carefully scripted.

"But the media are always around him taking notes. Reporters are in constant contact with the people who work for the president. They’re always talking to others in the president’s party.

"And for three and half years, the press has been telling the public that Biden is doing fine. That all the talk of his age and infirmity was misinformation. Just last week, the media tried to convince voters that Biden’s incredibly odd behavior at recent events was all “cheap fakes” by Republicans.

"They said Donald Trump made verbal mistakes and was old, too." . . .

Time To Admit It: Democrats Are The Party of Sexual Perverts – Issues & Insights   


. . ."On the other hand, whenever I make the above accusations, coming from a research background, I often cite data, lists, that is, lists of facts, without intervening flowery statements. While general accusations can be waved away with equally general denials, data – that is, detailed facts – cannot be waved away, much as leftists would like otherwise.

"One drawback, of course, is that readers can become overwhelmed at the sheer amount of data and the other is that editors become irritated by this technique, preferring grandiose essays. Now, I can write grandiose essays along with the best of them, but listing data, undeniable data, is the best choice. 

"So, I beg the reader’s indulgence in the following:

"In Arizona, Democratic state senators hosted a “Drag story hour” for children and adults – inside the State House.

"In Kentucky, a Democratic senator opposed a bill banning child sex toys and referred to pedophiles as “minor-attracted persons.” Leftists always use euphemisms to promote repugnant ideas. And, yes, people do fall for that trick.

In Kansas City, Missouri, the Democratic mayor along with other Democratic officials had a “National Reading Day.” Not books like “Tom Sawyer” or “Treasure Island.” No. The books read were written with the purpose of brainwashing children to “explore their gender identity” (more euphemisms) and to encourage them to become transgender.

"New York Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez praised a drag queen wandering around in the halls of Congress.

"Staff members of a Democratic senator from Delaware were found having anal sex in the Judiciary Committee hearing room.

"And speaking of Democrats from Delaware, we have pseudo-President Joe Biden. His daughter’s diary revealed that they used to shower together. That’s one way to bond. His crackhead son recorded himself having sex and drugs with multiple prostitutes. Biden is also outraged – yes, outraged! – that pornographic books are being removed from elementary school libraries.

"In Michigan, a Democratic government staffer expressed being aroused by the “sexy satanic statue” erected at the Michigan state capitol.

"In New York, a Democratic senator who helped pass a bill targeting Donald Trump on accusation of rape was himself accused of rape.

"In a symbolic slap to parents, a Democratic Fairfax County School Board member was sworn into office not on the Bible, but on a stack of pro-homosexual books." . . .

" 'Joe Biden, a good man and a good president, has no business running for re-election," Friedman wrote."

 OK, maybe Tara Reade had contempt for Biden, but look at how many Hollywood celebrities and news anchors love Joe...TD


. . ."Friedman suggested that Biden's family and political advisers should have had an urgent and heartfelt discussion with the president to convince him to step down. 
"By doing so, Biden would have enabled the Democratic Party to present a fresh candidate capable of uniting both the party and the country. 

"This move, Friedman argued, was crucial to prevent a second Trump term.
"The Biden family and political team must gather quickly and have the hardest of conversations with the president, a conversation of love and clarity and resolve," Friedman wrote. 

"He emphasized the need for an open and transparent process to select a new Democratic nominee who could offer a compelling vision for America's future, especially in the face of significant technological and climate disruptions." . . .

Mother and Baby Denied Boarding United Airlines Flight After Misgendering Attendant

 Brandon Morse – RedState Two words: transgender; California.

"If you're wondering how far the transgender movement has gone in forcing itself on the public, a recent story out of San Francisco, California, is pretty solid evidence. 

Forgive me, Gabriella!
"A video began going viral on X on Wednesday showing a mother discussing how she and her 16-month-old baby, as well as her mother, were denied a flight from San Francisco to Austin after she misgendered one of the attendants. As initially reported by ThePublica, the woman's name is Jenna Longoria. 

"According to Longoria's video, she's not sure exactly what she said that ticked off the attendant, other than misgendering and then apologizing afterward. They removed the three from the flight but did not remove their luggage, which contained medication that both she and her mother needed. 

"Longoria was attempting to soothe her toddler, who was throwing a tantrum while trying to get the car seat situated for him. 

“ 'I was speaking to one of the flight attendants and got their pronouns wrong. The other flight attendant didn’t like it. I said I am really sorry, ‘they,’ I’m not very versed with pronouns,” she said. 

"Apparently, that's when she was kicked off the flight. 

“ 'They’re saying that it’s a hate crime that I did, that I might not even be able to ever fly United. We don’t even know how we’re going to get back today. I don’t know what to do. I really don’t know what to do. I don’t know what my rights are here,” she continues." . . . 

'Anti-Zionist' Turns Himself In to Police After Subway Stunt

 – HotAir  

The protest at the Nova exhibit was especially disgustingHorror gripped Menashe Manzuri as he watched on Monday as an anti-Israel mob swarm the Manhattan exhibit memorial for the Oct. 7 terror attacks and viciously echo the chants of terrorists who murdered his two daughters.

 "Have you seen this video? A large group of "anti-Zionist" protesters crowded into a subway car in New York City earlier this month. One person told any Zionists on the train to identify themselves and then get off while the rest of the crowd chanted after him."

. . ."Unfortunately for the creep behind this, what he did is a crime. A few days later the police released a photo of the chant leader asking for tips as to his identity.

"They must have gotten some tips because today 24-year-old Anas Saleh turned himself in to police.

Anas Saleh turned himself in on Wednesday morning at the New York Police Department's Transit District 2, Fox News Digital has learned. 

Saleh is being charged via a criminal complaint with coercion after harassing strangers on a city subway.

"Saleh was given a desk appearance ticket specifying that he needed to appear in court next Monday. Then he was released and his release turned into a circus. Just look at these pathetic goons. Toward the end of this clip they are clearly blocking the subway exit so no one with cameras can get through." . . .
