Greg Gutfeld and Stephen Colbert Late-Night Battle Reaches Its Apex

Yet for the most part, Colbert has treated Biden positively. Gutfeld has relentlessly mocked Colbert for this, saying last month: “I would not survive prison. I’d be one of the prizes in a card game. I’d become someone’s b***h faster than Colbert became Biden’s.” 


"Greg Gutfeld’s acerbic wit and Stephen Colbert’s self-important satire have been locked in a ratings battle ever since Gutfeld! shocked the late-night world with its out-of-the-gate popularity 15 months ago. 

"The competition has narrowed: When averaging the five weeks of ratings from June 27 to July 31, Fox News’ Gutfeld! beats out CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. It’s worth noting, however, that Colbert was on vacation for the first two weeks of July and ran reruns during that time.

"From July 25 to 31, Colbert drew an average of 2,076,000 viewers while Gutfeld got 1,879,200. The prior week, July 18 to 24, Colbert hit 2,143,000 average viewers while Gutfeld got 2,009,200. Often, even when Colbert isn’t on vacation, Gutfeld comes out on top.

"Colbert’s Late Show, which premiered seven years ago, has, for the most part, topped late-night ratings ever since surpassing Jimmy Fallon’s cratering Tonight Show in 2016. Colbert’s formula of Democratic cheerleading interrupted by occasional comedic jibes has proven to be a success. (Here’s an attempt at humor from Monday: “This weekend, the U.S. Senate finally approved a bill to fight climate change … Thank God. Finally. Thank God, we’re at least going to try to save the planet because that is where I keep most of my stuff.”) During the month of June, Colbert averaged 2,187,000 viewers while Gutfeld averaged 1,956,000. Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon trailed behind with 1,690,000 and 1,327,000 viewers, respectively.". . .

FBI agents raided Mar-a-Largo, former President Donald Trump’s Florida home, on Aug. 8, 2022, supposedly looking for federal documents that Trump might have taken with him after leaving office.

"Opposing the bill, the House Freedom Caucus noted that the IRA creates “an army of 87,000 new enforcement agents to target Americans with as many as one million more audits a ear on taxpayers earning less than $200,000—the same middle-class that suffers the most from Bidenomics’ skyrocketing inflation.” . . .

"Opposing the bill, the House Freedom Caucus noted that the IRA creates “an army of 87,000 new enforcement agents to target Americans with as many as one million more audits a year on taxpayers earning less than $200,000—the same middle-class that suffers the most from Bidenomics’ skyrocketing inflation.” The bill also allows the Secretary of the Treasury to bypass federal hiring guidelines and offer direct employment to job seekers, Anony Mee writes at the American Thinker, thereby ensuring that “only those who meet a political smell test get to participate in this new IRS enforcement program.”

"Meanwhile, for the past 10 to 15 years, various non-military agencies of the government have been stockpiling weapons and ammunition. Way back in 2017 Forbes reported that agencies like the IRS, the Department of the Interior, the Department of Agriculture". . .

Drag Queens and R-Rated Features: The Latest Offerings From Disney+

Blazing Cat Fur  "From House of Mouse to house of gauche.


"An upcoming series on Disney+ is set to feature a drag queen in a starring role. Shea Couleé, winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race, will be appearing in a currently unspecified role in the Marvel superhero series Ironheart. The series focuses on the adventures of Riri Williams, a 15-year-old black female genius inventor who creates her own Iron Man–esque suit of armor. While Couleé’s role remains unclear, it appears as though the actor will be a “series regular.” Couleé was previously the inspiration for a drag queen character in the Marvel Iceman comics."

If You Don't Get Why Trump Pled the Fifth, Listen to the Remarks of the NY AG –

 If You Don't Get Why Trump Pled the Fifth, Listen to the Remarks of the NY AG – RedState  "As we reported earlier, President Donald Trump invoked the Fifth Amendment when he was questioned during a deposition in New York on Wednesday in a civil case being pursued by New York Attorney General Letitia James.

“I once asked ‘if you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?’ Now I know the answer to that question,” Trump said in a statement. “When your family, your company, and all the people in your orbit have become targets of an unfounded, politically motivated Witch Hunt supported by lawyers, prosecutors, and the Fake News Media, you have no choice.”

"Folks on the left are already trying to spin that negatively against Trump. Even former prosecutor and lead impeachment counsel Daniel Goldman tweeted something that is just plain wrong. He should be ashamed he tweeted it and is misleading people who may not know better.". . .

"There are reasons we have rights. Lawyers particularly should be respectful of that — not putting down or denigrating the exercise of those rights or acting like taking the Fifth is a sign of guilt. Indeed, given all that has been leveled against Trump from multiple Democratic efforts, it is the intelligent and responsible way to proceed.

"If Goldman and others want to play that game, perhaps they’d like to explain why Hillary Clinton’s IT guy invoked the Fifth 125 times during the email investigation?

"Goldman is now running for Congress so perhaps he’s trying to appeal to the left with his tweet, but he’s just showing he has no principles with it.". . .

. . ." Everything about him is a failure, and Biden himself often seems to know it.  The inflation, open border, international humiliation, out-of-control crime, falling wages, supply chain failures, baby formula shortages, wokester lunacies, military recruiting deficits, and the grand sense from voters that the country is moving in the wrong direction are his legacy.

Garland; the man Obama chose to be on the Supreme Court

 


Ann Coulter: Merrick Garland Is a Lunatic (townhall.com)   "Let's hope Merrick Garland's search of Mar-a-Lago is based on more evidence than his indictment of the Louisville, Kentucky, police officers involved in the raid on Breonna Taylor's house. 
"That passive construction I just used -- "involved in the raid on," 
"instead of "who raided" -- is not sloppy writing: It's the facts. The officers who actually shot Taylor have not been charged, apparently on the flimsy grounds that they were being shot at when they fired. Instead, our lunatic attorney general has indicted officers who prepared the affidavit used to obtain the warrant to search Taylor's home. In the words of the indictment, the affidavit "contained information that was false, misleading and out-of-date ... and the officers lacked probable cause for the search."
"Further, the indictment also alleges that the officers knew they were providing false information. 
"Breonna Taylor, you will recall, was the moll for drug dealer Jamarcus Glover, one of Louisville's biggest suppliers of cocaine and fentanyl, and therefore by definition a murderer. On March 13, 2020, the police executed simultaneous search warrants on two of his "trap houses" as well as the home of his bagwoman, Breonna. 
"At Taylor's house, police announced themselves and got no response. They announced themselves again; no response. They announced themselves again; no response. Finally, they used a battering ram to enter. Almost immediately, an officer was shot. 
"The man with Taylor, Kenneth Walker, claims he shot at the officers because he thought the guys pounding on the front door and yelling "POLICE!" were home invaders. Skeptics will say that's implausible, but it is now treated as hard fact in such solid, reliable news sources as The New York Times. 
"The officers returned fire and hit Taylor, who had the misfortune to be standing next to her boyfriend as he was shooting at the police. Riots ensued. Taylor's family got $12 million. "Kentucky's criminal prosecution of the one officer charged ended in an acquittal. With last week's suit, the federal government is now bringing its own criminal charges against the police -- in a sane world, this would be double jeopardy -- alleging that the affidavit for a search warrant was based on information that was knowingly "false, misleading and out-of-date." "Specifically, the feds say the following claims were false: 
"1. Glover and Taylor had an "ongoing connection". . .

These Are the Republicans Who Voted to Confirm Merrick Garland

 These Are the Republicans Who Voted to Confirm Merrick Garland (townhall.com)  . . .In addition to all the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senators Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, John Cornyn of Texas, and Thom Tillis of North Carolina supported Garland's nomination. 

"Then, on March 10, 2021, when Garland's nomination came before the full Senate for a vote, he was confirmed in a 70-30 vote.

" Again, in addition to every Democrat senator, a number of Republicans voted to make Merrick Garland the Attorney General of the United States. 

"The 20 GOP senators joining Democrats to confirm Garland were: 

"Roy Blunt of Missouri, Richard Burr of North Carolina, Shelley Moore Capitol of West Virginia, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, John Cornyn of Texas, Joni Ernst of Iowa, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, James Lankford of Oklahoma, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Jerry Moran of Kansas, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Rob Portman of Ohio, Mitt Romney of Utah

"Where are these Republicans now that the FBI has raided Mar-A-Lago on Garland's watch? Seemingly missing in action and conspicuously quiet about the search of Trump's "Southern White House.". . .

Joe Biden's newest climate boondoggle is bad for farmers, bad for the food supply -

Cheryl K. Chumley.- Washington Times


"Joe Biden scored a presidential win when Senate Democrats plus Vice President Kamala Harris voted to advance his climate, tax and health care boondoggle of a bill, with a massive $400 billion or so of the total $740 billion in proposed spending earmarked for carbon emission controls and other pet green projects — a la Campaign Joe’s Build Back Better dreams.

'"But beware the food insecurity that’s coming.

"This bill is bad for energy companies. It’s bad for the economy. It’s bad for law-abiding taxpayers who will now be treated to more, more, more IRS scrutiny, much of it needless and aggressive. It’s bad for Americans who believe in the concept of limited government and who long for the pre-Barack Obama days when health care was more private than publicly run. But it’s equally bad for farmers in America. 

"And when things go south for farmers, that means things go south for America’s food supplies.

"Contained within this bill is $20 billion to encourage — and that’s encourage in air quotes — farmers to adopt climate-friendly agricultural practices that in the end will strip them of their independence or, due to costs of compliance, drum them out of business. . . ."

 If FBI goons can crucify a former president, no-one is safe: RICHARD LITTLEJOHN | Daily Mail Online 

  "This is how democracy ends. Or maybe, just maybe, how civil war starts.

"After the surgically-embalmed octogenarian Nancy Pelosi jetted into Taiwan to proclaim America's enduring commitment to freedom, back home FBI goons were staging a politically-motivated, prime-time raid on the home of her sworn enemy Donald Trump.

"As events unfolded on live television, it was like watching one of those old conspiracy-theory movies, starring Robert Redford or Gene Hackman.

"In the latest Hollywood-inspired version, Trump is this year's Enemy of the State.

"The FBI's stormtrooper tactics at Bad Orange Man's gaudy Mar-a-Lago compound in Palm Beach, Florida, could have come straight from the playbook of the Chinese Communist Party.

"Their risible excuse for this outrageous abuse of Trump's privacy and civil rights was a warrant issued by a federal judge in search of classified documents allegedly taken by the former President when he was evicted from the White House, screaming and kicking about a stolen election.". . .  RICHARD-LITTLEJOHN.

Trump-Backed Candidates Sweep Board Day After FBI Raids Mar-A-Lago (breitbart.com)

AOC's district saw 57% increase in major crimes under tenure

 AOC's district saw 57% increase in major crimes under tenure  (washingtonexaminer.com)   "Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (D-NY) district saw a 57% increase in major crime under her tenure, a new study found.

"The district suffered massive increases in what the New York Police Department considers the seven "major" crimes of murder, rape, robbery, felonious assault, burglary, grand larceny, and grand larceny auto, a study by former NYPD inspector Paul Mauro found.
Shootings went up by 47.05%, the study said.

" 'Let’s just say, with those numbers: Were she a precinct commander, she’d better have some answers for the chief of department," Mauro wrote in an opinion piece.

"The former inspector dismissed anticipated criticism that the end of coronavirus lockdowns was the culprit for the increase because crime rates were consistently increasing while the lockdowns were underway. He tied the drastic increase to the $1.5 billion cut in funding for the NYPD in 2020, an effort Ocasio-Cortez spearheaded and lamented wasn't enough.

" 'Defunding police means defunding police. It does not mean budget tricks or funny math," Ocasio-Cortez said in a press release. "If these reports are accurate, then these proposed ‘cuts’ to the NYPD budget are a disingenuous illusion. This is not a victory. The fight to defund policing continues."

The White House Refuses To Speak On About Raid On Trump

 


Marc Elias boasts about the real motive behind the FBI’s Mar-a-Lago raid - American Thinker   "Marc Elias is a very smart man who hooked his wagon to the Hillary Clinton star and has been involved in almost all the attacks against Trump.  His allegiances are clear, and he's incredibly excited about the Justice Department's decision to sic the FBI on Trump, a former and possibly future president.  The main purpose is to keep Trump from being able to run again.  That's it.". . .

The White House Refuses To Speak On About Raid On Trump (thefederalist.com)  Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre continually deflected questions regarding the FBI’s unprecedented raid on former president Donald Trump’s home in Mar-a-Lago in Tuesday’s press briefing.
"Jean-Pierre only addressed the events that took place at Trump’s Florida home Monday evening after being questioned whether President Biden or anyone else at the White House was aware of the search warrant or if they were briefed in the aftermath. Jean-Pierre claimed ignorance, saying no one was aware of it.
"She goes on to claim that Biden believes in “the rule of law, in the independence of the Justice Department investigations,” and that those investigations should be “free from political influence.” Such a statement contradicts the Justice Department’s cherry-picking of cases to pursue, such as labeling parents as “domestic terrorists” but not investigating the mounting evidence suggesting the Biden family’s business ties to China.
"Peter Doocy of Fox News noted that Jean-Pierre and the Biden administration, who are usually vocal about their contempt towards the former president, were oddly silent on the events and asked if this means they consider him to be a political threat.

“ 'Ehh, I don’t talk about Trump all the time,” Jean-Pierre said in a snarky response.". . .
