The 14th BEST President in History? Victor Davis Hanson presents a critical examination of Joe Biden's presidency, questioning the narrative that positions him favorably in comparison to past leaders. Citing a recent survey placing Biden as the 14th best president, Hanson delves deep into the delusions surrounding Biden's perceived successes amid notable failures in critical areas such as the economy, border management, and foreign policy. With a candid assessment of Biden's mindset and the implications of how history may judge his tenure, this discussion challenges the prevalent narratives and asks the tough questions about what future generations may think of this administration. #JoeBiden #VictorDavisHanson #PresidentialHistory #PoliticalAnalysis #BidenCritique #History #USPolitics #Economy #ForeignPolicy

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announces resignation after facing major political pressure
USA Today "Trudeau under pressure to resign amid Trump reelection Calls for Trudeau to step aside have grown since December amid a series of polls showing his Liberal Party being trounced in the next election due to voter anger over high prices and a housing crisis, Reuters reported.
"Trudeau has also faced a series of mounting crises, including the abrupt resignation of Canada's finance minister Chrystia Freeland and Trump's threat of imposing crippling tariffs when he takes office.
"The Canadian Broadcasting Corp said more than 50 Liberal members of parliament from Ontario − the most populous of the 10 provinces and the party's main stronghold − held a call Dec. 21 and agreed Trudeau had to step down.
"Trudeau has attempted damage control, even jetting out to West Palm Beach, Florida in late-November for a meeting with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate days after the president-elect vowed to enact a 25% tariff on all products coming into the U.S. from Canada and Mexico.
"Trudeau has often been at odds with Trump, who has mocked Trudeau as "governor" of Canada while repeatedly joking t-hat the nation should become the 51st U.S. state.". . .
THE LAST REFUGE posted in anticipation of Trudeau's resignation: The bombshell report comes as an embattled Trudeau has faced increasing calls for his resignation as a Donald Trump presidency – and the threat of 25% tariffs on all products north of the border – looms large.
The prime minister was struck with a devastating blow after his then-finance minister, Chrystia Freeland, quit last month over a deepening divide between the two over the future of Canada’s economy. (read more)
"Justin from Canada has been an unstable boy-child with a speech impediment and an emotionally unstable disposition for a long time. He personifies the leftist hero for modern feminists."

How low can Joe go?

How low can Joe go? Now he's forking out big civilian honors to Liz Cheney and her ilk Britt Hume commented: This is repulsive. That investigation was done by a committee all of whose members were chosen by Nancy Pelosi, and was produced like a TV show. There was no cross examination of witnesses. The media fell for it, but it was utterly one-sided. A show trial.
"So enjoy your medal, Miss Cheney. I don't think that this is the last that you will hear about that corrupt committee that you were a part of." . . ."Yes, go to Biden now, accept his medal, you can’t refuse, you got nothing to lose and have to hang around with those who hated your family. How sad is that."

Why Biden Is Carpet Bombing His Exit?
. . ."Yet Team Biden, led by the big guy, are doing all they can to unleash chaos in the final stretch. They hope to create such a mess that a new administration (even stacked with door kickers at the head of every agency) will be consumed by the chaos. So much so that they can not implement the long term changes that are desperately needed."
"Have you noticed? The guy is nuking everything on his way out the door!
"What is this fresh hell the Biden administration is leveling the country with? In every way possible, on every from he’s able, abusing as much power as he possibly can the current President of the United States is attempting to obliterate America.
"At the end of the very same week where at minimum two terrorist attacks were attempted on American soil, Biden decided to release a terrorist from Guantanamo Bay.
"In a day where crime has exploded across our cities and violent crime taking human life, Biden commutes nearly all of the sentences of mass murders on death row.
"And at week’s end he awarded the most anti-American, anti-western, anti-Semite the infamous George Soros the Presidential Medal of Honor.
"He’s literally rewarded terrorists, killers, and treason.
"He is unrepentant about opening the southern border and saying “ya’ll come.” And his minions in legacy media like Lawrence O’Donnell are out there pushing the theory that the real tie connecting heinous murderous terror pushing devils is the uniform of the U.S. Army instead of the fact that they get radicalized and change their names to something like “Jabbar.”
"Despite the fact that even Biden’s administration stopped more than a thousand people on the terror watch list while attempting to enter, democrats seem to believe that its service personnel are more likely to be terrorists than actual terrorists."
Biden Bans Oil and Gas Drilling in Federal Waters, Striking Final Blow against U.S. Energy on His Way Out . . ."The move comes on the same day that Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris is set to be certified by Congress. Trump has vowed to increase oil and gas production on a simple three-word energy policy: “Drill, baby, drill.” Biden’s latest action, however, poses an obstacle to the incoming president’s energy plans.
"Asked about the ban during a Monday radio interview, Trump told host Hugh Hewitt he would “unban it immediately.”
“ 'It’s really our greatest economic asset,” Trump said." . . .
Here’s Why Joe Biden Gave the Presidential Medal of Freedom to George Soros
"Activist groups bankrolled through Soros’ Open Society Foundations have worked to remake the federal government in the image of pink-haired college students steeped in gender studies and protesting Israel on campus."
Daily Signal "President Joe Biden rewarded one of the Left’s most influential and notorious donors Saturday, giving the Presidential Medal of Freedom to George Soros.
Under Spiteful Joe, Will We Make It Until Jan. 20?
"But the timing is suspect. Biden could have taken out the mullah’s atomic weapons program at any time during his watch. Instead, he’s thought about dumping a problem on Trump’s shoulders and escaping the responsibility that would come with such an operation. Should Biden follow through, it would not be done in the interest of national security but rather the spiteful act of a wretched man."
"My word as a Biden" |
Trump Spokeswoman Slams Biden’s Last-Minute Ban on Offshore Drilling: ‘Revenge on the American People’ . . ."Leavitt, speaking for the Trump transition team, criticized President Biden's decision to ban future offshore oil drilling, calling it a "disgraceful decision" intended as revenge against those who voted for Trump's plan to lower prices at the pump.
" 'This is a disgraceful decision designed to exact political revenge on the American people who gave President Trump a mandate to increase drilling and lower gas prices," she said in a statement this morning.
"Leavitt predicted that Biden's lame-duck efforts would be unsuccessful.
" 'Rest assured, Joe Biden will fail, and we will drill, baby, drill," she added." . . .

How to invalidate the Presidential Medal of Freedom in one fell swoop
"How did the people who cast their votes for Kamala Harris not realize she would have ushered in more of the same? The authoritarianism of the Biden administration would have become ever more authoritarian, for she would have been another easily manipulated puppet of the left’s Marxist globalists." Patricia McCarthy
Biden awards Hillary and Soros the Presidential Medal of Freedom; Eric Utter . . .There is a difference between being non compos mentis and being possessed by a deranged and demonic desire to reward the most dangerous and despicable anti-American prevaricators extant or otherwise.
"These decisions reek of Obama -- with perhaps a little Adam Schiff or Nancy Pelosi thrown in for bad measure.
"Hillary Clinton is to decency and transparency as Josef Mengele is to Judaism.
"George Soros, the Hungarian bagman, funds a significant percentage of all the Leftist and anti-American groups and activities in existence.
"Awarding PMFs to characters like these is demeaning to the American people and all those who value honesty, integrity, and America itself.
"These actions perfectly illustrate today’s Democrat party— with its simultaneous worship of depravity and rabid pursuit of power."

How to invalidate the Presidential Medal of Freedom in one fell swoop
. . ."Consider how different things might be had even one or two of the people who contributed to or knew about the phony Russia hoax had come forward and told the truth or if only one person had come forward to reveal the truth about the illegitimate impeachments of Trump.
"But they did not.
"Instead, pathological liars like Adam Schiff got their way until the truth was finally revealed. There was never any there there. And now he is a senator! He has no business being anywhere near Congress.
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.” --Cicero
"Above all else, what we should hope and pray for over the next four years is fearless leaders, people unafraid to tell the truth of what they know, unafraid to do their jobs without the financial influence of lobbyists, blackmailers, and threats. One thing is clear: Trump’s cabinet nominees are all immensely qualified; none of Biden’s were but were confirmed by mindless RINOs who didn’t give their incompetence a second thought. Any Republican who votes against even one of Trump’s team will be revealing himself or herself as a hated RINO, bound to be despised and primaried and soon defeated. If even one of them misses the blaring significance of giving Cheney, Thompson, Hillary, and Soros such once-meaningful awards, they do not belong in Congress in any capacity."
Hamas tries to call Trump's bluff
"Rational people would learn from Trump’s rapid obliteration of Isis and his precision droning of Iranian General Soleimani, but Islamist fanatics aren’t rational."
Hamas is determined to survive and to return to power in the Middle East. It fired two short-range rockets at Israel at midnight on New Year’s Eve — a weaker barrage than it used to greet 2024, but a sign that it is still committed to war.
‘September 5’ Captures One of the Most Shocking Massacres — of the Israeli Team at the Munich Olympics
“ 'September 5” is one of the more compelling cases on film in recent years for the logic of Zionism. Not three decades after Auschwitz minted corpses and ash, the world watched while Jews were murdered in the city of Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch. Germany was not the villain at Munich, but the West Germans were so afraid of repeating their past that, by abjuring a strong military, they enabled an echo of history. That is a lesson to never forget." . . .
"An attack against Israelis in the small hours of the dawn. Hostages taken in front of a stunned world, footage capturing the horror in real time. That could describe not only October 7, 2023, but also September 5, 1972 — the massacre at the Munich Olympics. A new movie, called simply “September 5,” offers a fresh angle on the event. Its focus is how the attacks were covered by ABC News, which beamed the brutality to 900 million people.
"The 1972 Olympics were intended to introduce the world to a new Germany. The last games on German soil, in 1936 at Berlin, had been presided over by Hitler. The 1972 games offered a new chance but, in the event, showcased the world’s oldest hate, courtesy of Palestinian Arab terrorists of the Black September organization. Eleven Israeli athletes were killed following a cascade of errors by West German security forces.
"This story has been told before, most recently by the director Steven Spielberg in his “Munich,” which focused on the subsequent Israeli effort, directed by Israel’s premier, Golda Meir, to deliver justice to those responsible for the massacre. That ambition led to “Operation Wrath of God,” which exacted vengeance over more than 20 years. “September 5,” directed by Tim Fehlbaum, covers only the attack itself, and is the stronger for its restraint.
"The insight of “September 5” is that tightening its ambit amplifies its force rather than narrowing its vision. The focus on broadcasting craft liberates the film to hew close to the savagery and eschew cant and justification. George Orwell wrote that “to see what is in front of one’s nose needs a constant struggle.” The movie at least makes the effort to do that. Its lens offers an argument for medium over message and craft over context." . . .

Whitney Cummings Roasts Democrats: No Primary Since ‘They Were Too Busy Holding a Dead Body Upright’
"Whitney roasts The Democrats, Hunter Biden, the Menendez brothers, Luigi (last name) Hollywood, The Corporate Media, Big Pharma, and all things 2024"...
Bourbon Street Massacre Is What ‘Globalize the Intifada’ Looks Like
"Elites, in short, convinced themselves that radical Islam was no longer a major problem. They deemed it far more pressing to focus on the “domestic terror threat” posed by Christian grandmothers praying outside abortion clinics — or parents speaking up at school board meetings about racial and gender indoctrination in their children’s schools."
"As woke illiberalism replaced live-and-let-live liberalism as the animating ideology of the American Left, the state of Israel has increasingly found itself on the outs. Never mind that modern Israel was founded by, and for three decades politically dominated by, a bunch of left-wing socialists. Never mind that Harry Truman, an iconic liberal Democratic president, became the first world leader to recognize the fledgling Jewish state a mere 11 minutes after it announced its independence in 1948. None of that history matters on the Left anymore, after wokeism supplanted liberalism.
"In the fatuous neo-Marxist dichotomy of modern wokeism, Jews are deemed a “white,” “oppressor” class; Muslims, by contrast, are deemed a “brown,” “oppressed” class. To be a leftist in good standing, then, necessitates supporting the latter over the former — and, therefore, supporting Palestinian Arab jihadism over the Jewish people’s eternal will to survive. To the woke, the Palestinian Arabs’ quest to annihilate the Jews of Israel represents a vogue and chic cause — just like Black Lives Matter did five years ago, and just like same-sex marriage did five years before that.
"The apotheosis of this bemusing sentiment was the Hamas massacre of Oct. 7, 2023. Sure, babies were beheaded, women were raped, beautiful young music festival attendees were butchered, and Holocaust survivors were executed in their homes — but “Palestine” was being “decolonized,” and every good leftist knows you have to break a few eggs in order to make an omelet! The ends always justify the means, as Saul Alinsky famously taught. Accordingly, in the words of disgraced Cornell history professor Russell Rickford, the Hamas massacre was “exhilarating” and “energizing.”
"The imperative now, as thousands of young jihadis infesting America’s university campuses have made clear, is to spread the “love”: to “globalize the intifada” and, in the words of the radical leftists who congregated in Times Square in New York City earlier this week, to foment a worldwide “intifada revolution.” The more, the merrier: Sharing is caring, after all!
"Alas, Americans now know exactly what “globalize the intifada” and “intifada revolution” means, in practice: Bourbon Street, New Orleans, around 3:15 a.m. local time on New Year’s Day. There, a U.S. Army veteran-turned-radicalized Muslim convert by the name of Shamsud-Din Jabbar drove a rented pickup truck into a jam-packed crowd of New Year’s partiers. The truck was packed with weapons, improvised explosive devices and — you guessed it — an ISIS flag. The tragic human cost of this one intifada mini “revolution” was at least 15 dead and more than 30 others injured." . . .
More garbage from the experts, speaking of terrorism
. . ."My intelligent guess is most of the experts conducting this research are far left themselves and they consider far left protests and attacks to be reasonable.
"Maybe New Orleans,, the FBI, DHS, and other Democrat-run organizations would be more successful at protecting the public if they were focused on actual risk instead of focusing on DEI, climate change, and destroying their political opponents."
