Booker and Harris laugh at the ordeal of Judge Kavanaugh

Ex-Harris Staffer Says She Gives 'Soul-Destroying Criticism': Report - Business Insider  . . ."Some said Harris would refuse to analyze briefing materials set forth by employees but then scold them if she appeared unprepared.

" 'It's clear that you're not working with somebody who is willing to do the prep and the work," one former staffer told the newspaper. "With Kamala ["she/her"] you have to put up with a constant amount of soul-destroying criticism and also her own lack of confidence. So you're constantly sort of propping up a bully and it's not really clear why."

"Gil Duran, who worked in Harris' office in 2013, when she was California's attorney general, told The Post that the turnover in the vice president's office pointed back to her." . . .

 Kamala Harris is a very weird person (nypost.com)   . . ."Americans tend to tolerate presidents who have proven to be stupid or incompetent, but Harris is downright weird. After she lied to Lester Holt by saying, “We’ve been to the border” and he replied by noting this wasn’t true, she came back with “And I haven’t been to Europe!” Then she let out a giant, weird, inappropriate laugh and made the weird admission, “And I mean — I don’t understand the point that you’re making.”

 "Politicians often don’t understand when they’re face-planting, but they usually don’t come right out and say, “I don’t understand,” because that tends to make things a little too easy for their opponents. Just like Nixon never came out and said, “I am a crook.”

"Any five-minute TV interview with Harris — heck, even her own self-promotional videos, such as the instantly notorious YouTube clip in which paid child actors visiting NASA gamely tried to not look creeped out by Weird Kamala — becomes another piece of evidence for her enemies to club her over the head with. It’s gotten so bad for Harris that even state media outlets such as CNN are regretfully informing the public that she just ain’t got what it takes." . . .

It’s Shocking How Many Democrats Think the Trump Assassination Attempt Was Staged

 Matt Margolis – PJ Media

. . ."Enter Joy Reid, a primetime host with a long and storied history of lies and deceit [...] decided to take this one step further by implying that the whole assassination attempt was actually staged and choreographed for Trump's political benefit." . . . 

The American Spectator

 . . ."What struck Marcus was that Mark did not come across as a stereotypical conspiracy theorist or a lunatic. He seemed rational enough, albeit prone to believing in unfounded theories. As Mark ate his caesar salad and veal piccante topped with mussels, he reiterated his belief that Trump could do anything. This conversation left Marcus pondering how someone like Mark could hold such strong convictions without any solid evidence.

"The answer, of course, is obvious. "Why wouldn’t Mark, if he has a steady diet of liberal media, think that Trump is capable of killing innocent people?” Marcus asked. "After all, they say he will deny women their rights, he won’t let black people vote, he will destroy democracy, and on and on and on. Mark is conditioned to believe that Trump is a unique evil and nothing should be put past him."

"Ironically, it’s the same kind of coverage that would radicalize someone and make them feel morally justified to shoot Trump.

"I certainly have my questions about the assassination attempt, which all revolve around “how could this have been allowed to happen?” Each new development raises disturbing questions for sure, but deep down I don’t want to believe what some of the evidence has me wondering.

"The problem is that those who hate Trump want to believe every crazy thing said about him." . . .

Rep. Ronny Jackson, M.D. releases first medical report on former President Trump’s ear injury - Peter Barry Chowka   This should anger Joy Reid beyond her reasonable limit. TD

. . ."I have been with President Trump since that time, and I have evaluated and treated his wound daily. He is doing well. As reported and witnessed by the entire world, he sustained a gunshot wound to the right ear from a high-powered rifle used by the would be assassin.The bullet passed, coming less than a quarter of an inch from entering his head, and struck the top of his right ear. The bullet track produced a 2 cm wide wound that extended down to the cartilaginous surface of the ear." . . . 

REVEALED: Obama Lied to Everyone About Biden's Senility at Infamous L.A. Fundraiser – RedState

"I want to point out the obvious here. When given the chance to tell the truth, Obama and his underlings lied to everyone. They didn't just abstain from commenting on Biden's troubles at the fundraiser. They came out publicly and countered them. They claimed that anyone who pointed out his senility was pushing disinformation, giving the press everything they needed to run with the "cheap-fakes" nonsense."

. . ." Regardless, it's all too little, too late. Even if Biden does drop out, and that's looking less and less likely, no one in the Democratic Party has clean hands, including Obama, who is
obviously trying to orchestrate this entire thing. They knew about Biden's condition and they lied to the faces of every voter in America. Their late-game shift, which is wholly out of political convenience, counts for absolutely nothing." 

New Democrat Cope Drops: Make Mitt Romney Their Nominee

  Bonchie – RedState

. . ."Democrats chose to pursue the path that led them here. They spent years lying about Biden's condition. They lauded his pick of Kamala Harris based on intersectional qualities despite her obvious flaws. They refused to moderate on even the most serious issues, such as the border crisis, instead going full-steam ahead with Bernie Sanders' agenda. Now, they are desperately trying to find a way out of the mess they created." . . . 

"How desperate are Democrats to dump Joe Biden? Desperate enough to start floating the idea of using an open convention to make Mitt Romney their nominee. 

"No, I'm not kidding. The New York Times published a piece by Aaron Sorkin on Sunday suggesting that the former Republican presidential candidate could be the savior Democrats need in this dark time. 

"If you aren't familiar with Sorkin, he wrote "The West Wing" and is seen as a political savant on the left, even when his fantasy-driven drivel is so clearly counter-productive. With that said, is Mitt Romney going to end up being the Democrat nominee? Of course, not. Despite his infamous "moderation" and penchant for stabbing Republicans in the back, the Utah senator would never accept. 

"Further, the Democratic Party is a far-left party in 2024. The idea that the majority of radicals would join hands with a too-online minority to "save democracy" by nominating a Republican is laughable. In an open convention, you'd be more likely to see Bernie Sanders pushed forward than anyone described as a "moderate.' " . . .

‘He was a pious man’: The Gaza neighborhood shocked to find Israeli hostages in their midst

 CNN

"Hussein Ibish, senior resident scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington, said that approach fits Hamas’ strategy to get Israel “bogged down in the urban centers of Gaza and push them into a counterinsurgency that cannot end, which is the perpetual war Hamas says it wants.' ”

"The Aljamal family was widely respected in Gaza’s Nuseirat camp. They were known as pious and prominent members of the community. While people knew they had connections to Hamas, neighbors say no one could have guessed how deep those links truly went.

"When Israeli forces stormed the Aljamals’ building on June 8 they found Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov and Shlomi Ziv, hostages who had been captured from the Nova music festival on October 7, cowering in a darkened room.

"The experience of the three men – alongside that of Noa Argamani who was held in another house nearby, belonging to the Abu Nar family – echoes testimony from previously released hostages. They describe being confined among the civilian population, rather than in Hamas’ vast tunnel network under Gaza.

"In the aftermath of last month’s rescue, neighbors in Nuseirat, a refugee camp in central Gaza, told CNN they were shocked to learn that Ahmed Aljamal, a physician, and his family had kept hostages in their midst.

“ 'Had we known, had he told us, we would have taken safety precautions, hide or move to somewhere else,” one neighbor, Abu Muhammad El Tahrawi, said.

"Dr. Aljamal, 74, was a general practitioner and also led the call to prayer at the local mosque, waking early every day to get there before dawn." . . .

America’s education system is failing and more

 NY Post; Letters to the Editor  

Vanishing history  "It should come as no surprise that the current generation of American students don’t know our nation’s history (“U. don’t know jack,” July 17).

"This trend has been underway for years, with colleges and public schools dismissing history studies as irrelevant. Equally disturbing, the seminal conflict of World War II that gave rise to today’s troubled geopolitical borders is often given little more than one class period in an entire school year. Previous surveys revealed that many students couldn’t even identify who the Allied leaders were. It is dangerous for a nation to forget its heritage."

Lawrence Kadish, Old Bethpage

About half of Americans say public K-12 education is going in the wrong direction | Pew Research Center  . . . "We asked adults who say the public education system is going in the wrong direction why that might be. About half or more say the following are major reasons:

• Schools not spending enough time on core academic subjects, like reading, math, science and social studies (69%)
• Teachers bringing their personal political and social views into the classroom (54%)
• Schools not having the funding and resources they need (52%)

About a quarter (26%) say a major reason is that parents have too much influence in decisions about what schools are teaching.

How views vary by party

Americans in each party point to different reasons why public education is headed in the wrong direction.

Republicans are more likely than Democrats to say major reasons are:

• A lack of focus on core academic subjects (79% vs. 55%)
• Teachers bringing their personal views into the classroom (76% vs. 23%)

In turn, Democrats are more likely than Republicans to point to:

• Insufficient school funding and resources (78% vs. 33%)
• Parents having too much say in what schools are teaching (46% vs. 13%)" . . .

Report: Analysis Reveals Third Weapon May Have Been Used In Trump Assassination Attempt; Oh please; not another "grassy knoll" theory.

 John Symank; resistthemainstream.com 

 “So basically law enforcement let the shooter get on the roof, knew about him being there before Trump got on stage, and then they let him open fire on President Trump and his supporters,” Laura Loomer wrote on X before suggesting the snipers “need to be charged.”

 It is now being reported by @benshapiro that the Secret Service may abide by an insane policy where a potential assassin can take the 1st shot before USSS lethally responds.  This may explain why snipers waited for Crooks to shoot first. Does this make sense to anyone else?!

"An audio analysis of the assassination attempt against former president Donald Trump suggests that as many as three weapons were fired at the rally before the shooter was killed.

"CNN published results of forensic analysis from Catalin Grigoras, director of the National Center for Media Forensics at the University of Colorado in Denver, and Cole Whitecotton, Senior Professional Research Associate from the same location.

"This report alleged that three shots were fired by “weapon A,” and the next five were consistent with “weapon B.” Weapon A presumably would have been the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, while weapon B was most likely the Secret Service sniper who returned fire and killed Crooks.

"However, the report also alleges that a possible weapon C emitted a final “acoustic impulse,” which may have belonged to a third, previously unknown shooter. 

"The FBI has stated that Crooks acted alone." . . .

A terror for sniper teams is to shoot an innocent person and spend years in prison for murder:

How Democrats relentlessly dialed up violent rhetoric against Trump before assassination attempt — comparing him to Hitler (msn.com)

"Democrats’ rhetoric stoking fear and hatred against former President Donald Trump — including repeated comparisons to Adolf Hitler — is coming a harsh new light following the assassination attempt against him on Saturday.

"Trump’s political opponents have long used incendiary language in response to his more controversial statements — commonly casting him as a cartoon villain hellbent on bringing about the end of democracy itself.

"Their divisive statements frequently include tossing around words like “dictator” or making overt references to the Holocaust or Nazi Germany.

"Republicans now blame this very rhetoric for stoking the assassination attempt that got Trump shot and left a hero firefighter dead and two others critically wounded." . . .

The Democrats were just fine with this disgusting performance by this practiced demagogue, Joe Biden. Surely America has better leaders than this man. TD

The media’s gaslighting has been so extreme that they brushed under the rug the feeble fumble the entire American viewing public saw them seeing first-hand

"In their laughable charges of White House “cover-ups” and press-briefing misinformation in the wake of the visibly slumping Joe Biden’s debate debacle, the legacy media are demonstrating an even steeper cognitive decline.

"Is the collective short-term memory loss of the sharks in the White House press pool so severe that they have forgotten their own full-on frenetic feeding frenzy just five months ago? On that previous Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Night when the incumbent did his best Sen. William Scott imitation in denying, and thereby proving, Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report that Biden is a man of “diminished faculties in advancing age”?

"Unalived?" Is that the word she used? TD

Jess Piper explains why Biden is 3, not 30, points behind Trump - Andrea Widberg   . . ."The reason for Biden’s continued success can be explained by one representative person: Jess Piper, the Executive Director of Blue Missouri, a Democrat political organization. According to her bio on the site:

Jess is a mother to five and grandmother to three and lives on a small farm on the Missouri/Iowa border.

She was born and raised in rural America. She received degrees in English and Teaching from the Univerity of Arkansas and was an American Literature teacher for 16 years. After the 2016 election of Trump, Jess became politically active.

"On her TikTok page, where she has 264,000 followers, Piper expressed her shock and horror about Saturday’s events. However, she wasn’t shocked or horrified that someone tried to kill one of the two leading presidential candidates. Instead, what frightened her was that there was a doctor in that MAGA crowd. This doctor:". . .

She cannot make herself say that a man was murdered. She calls him “unalived” — and that is entirely separate from her defamatory rant against the doctor. This is what leftism has done to America, and one really must wonder if this nation can be saved.

 Jess, who lost her race for a Missouri House seat is “mortified” that a Trump supporter can be a doctor.

. . ."For people like Jess Piper, Biden could be an actual eggplant, and she’d still vote for him. And you know what? I get it.

"My vision of America is the exact opposite of the one that Piper and her friends hold. I understand that Biden and Trump are both the tips of their respective ideological pyramids and I, too, would vote for an eggplant if it topped my constitutional ideological pyramid rather than her Marxist one."

This is the ER doctor that she would not want her loved one to be in the care of.

Biden is reportedly flying into rages

Monica Showalter 

He's like a wounded Frankenstein's monster of Democrats' own making; artificially stitched together, rotting, braying, lashing out. That's some candidate to present to the public, and as of this writing, he's not going. 

"Republicans have wrapped up their national convention in Milwaukee this week, and President Trump has emerged triumphant.

"Attention now goes to the Democrats and their upcoming convention beginning on August 19 in Chicago.

"That should be some convention because right now, at least two news reports have the Democrats' candidate, Joe Biden, is whimpering and flying into rages.

"According to NBC News in a story headlined: Biden left feeling angry and betrayed by top Democratic leaders wavering on his campaign:

The president is furious at how the party has tried to force him out, two sources say, as Democrats in Congress increasingly believe the question is when, not if, he will end his campaign.

President Joe Biden feels personally hurt and betrayed by the way so many Democrats, including some of the party’s top leaders, have left him hung out to dry as he faces the biggest crisis of his political career, according to two sources familiar with his thinking.

"According to Fox Business's Charlie Gasparino:

Charles Gasparino: BREAKING: Word from inside the POTUS  war room to Wall Street c-suiters who are following this drama is that Joe Biden is beside-himself angry, which is why it's taking so long for him to concede to reality. This guy is a tough man who feels completely dissed. I first reported on Biden's anger a few years back.

Has the Media Been Covering Up President Biden’s Cognitive Decline?

 

https://rofcbybroc.com/

Intellectual Takeout   "For the last 17 months of his two-term presidency, following a severe stroke, President Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924) was barely functional.

"Behind the scenes, Wilson’s wife Edith stepped in to effectively serve as de facto commander-in-chief. She even earned herself the title “Secret President” and “first woman to run the government,” according to her official White House biography.

"The parallels between Woodrow Wilson and President Joe Biden might not be exact, but they are hard to ignore.

"Biden has faced disastrous polls since going head-to-head with GOP frontrunner Donald Trump. All eyes are now on Biden’s age and apparent cognitive decline since the pair’s last electoral matchup in 2020.

"To be fair, the current POTUS is certainly more functional than Wilson was: It would be near impossible to conceal a Woodrow-like condition in the White House given today’s 24-hour news cycle and incisive social media scrutiny.

"It is no surprise that the White House and prominent Democrats have denied reports of Biden’s declining mental acuity. That is, it could be argued, their job.

"What’s far less forgivable is the role the media has played in such denials.

"Voicing the concerns of many, Newsmax host Todd Starnes asked over the weekend, “How many White House correspondents will be fired for their part in the coverup of Biden’s health. They all knew. They had a front row seat.”

"Indeed they did." . . .
