Kamala Harris: Tone deaf or sending a message?

Original Article

Posted By: Magnante, 8/30/2021 4:18:33 AM

There are some pictures that just seem to sum up a public figure in America. Vietnam vets, rightly, will never forgive Jane Fonda for palling around with the Viet Cong and sitting on one of the weapons used to kill American troops. The picture of Obama, with his limp arm in Raoul Castro’s grasp as Castro raised it triumphantly in the air, seemed to sum up Obama perfectly (snip) Kamala seems to have participated happily and willingly in an official appearance in front of a flower bedecked bust of Ho Chi Minh, the leader of the brutal Vietnamese Communist party (snip) sitting just below that same Ho Chi Minh bust:

Both are the answers. She was once promising, just ask Willie Brown. She is a valedictorian for the Peter Principle, many times over. We are stuck for the next year or so until the Republicans become the majority is both Houses of Government. Nasty Nancy will be gone. Then let the mother of all impeachments begin.

No doubt its both. She was sending a message that she will treat China like Willie Brown and she has zero self awareness how idiotic her behavior looks to freedom loving Americans.

She is sending a message, loud and clear, of the Progressive person she is. We can ignore it and make her President, or we can read all the signals she has put out to us and let Biden alone until after the 2022 election. Nothing good would come from making Kamala President!! She is proving it every time something big happens and she is AWOL!

#6, except that a hoe is a garden tool. It’s “Ho meets Ho”. Did anyone notice in the photo posted yesterday of Commie-la and the woman in yellow standing in front of the bust that they were in identical positions? I wouldn’t be surprised if the ho allowed them to place her arms in those positions and told her to stand still. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that it was intentional.

Imagine a giggly spoiled 14 year-old with no driving experience and her hands on the keys of a Mustang GT. Imagine that same girl 10 years later as a giggling, immature, spoiled, sexually licentious party girl with minimal driving experience and the keys to a Porsche 911 Turbo S. Imagine that same girl at 34, having gained arrogance but no maturity, with a law degree, a powerful sugar daddy, minimal driving experience and the keys to a Lamborghini. Now, imagine that same giggly, airheaded, overgrown adolescent at 50 with the power of armed forces, the code to a nuclear arsenal and no concern for the lives of people under her command or innocent civilians but a desire to fundamentally change the country over which she presides just as her newest male mentor promised in a speech 14 years before. That is the fix Mattress puts all of us in.

Kamala Harris is just reaffirning her anti-American beliefs. They have to do that regularly because there is so much competition within the ranks, and their supporters have short memories.

Biden throws a tantrum 4 replies
Posted by Magnante 9/1/2021 3:34:18 AM Post Reply
Our hapless president’s speech on Tuesday was not a speech at all. It was a full-blown childish tantrum. While he was ostensibly celebrating his massive “airlift” of thousands of mostly-Afghan refugees, from the beginning it was clear he is extremely angry. He almost shouted his claim that his catastrophic misadventure in Afghanistan has been a smashing success. This is a huge lie and everyone knows it, even those trying to spin this debacle as a win. In fact, Biden’s surrender has probably set a genocide in motion just as our betrayal of the South Vietnamese gave birth to the killing fields.

With placeholder president-in-name-only Joe Biden’s horrifying, juvenescent, and callow surrender of Afghanistan, the Dems’ and Never-Trumpers’ grand succession plan après Donald Trump has now utterly collapsed. President Joe Biden is officially a disgrace to the office, the nation, and its citizens. Ruined by his native low IQ arrogance, malicious incompetence, and aging mental health infirmities, and shunned by our allies, Joe Biden has no standing. Relegating serious Afghan retrograde decisions to a collection of woke fools, and duplicitous useless technocrats would never be forgivable even if Biden were a completely innocent incapacitated bystander.

They are both selling influence. The art and the foundation are merely instruments to launder bribes.

Likewise, I predict that Hunter’s art will suddenly become less valuable as soon as Joe leaves office.

When Joe Biden declared Kamala Harris his running mate in the 2020 election, it perplexed many among his allies and detractors. Why on earth did Joe opt for a relatively youthful individual who makes him look even older than he is in contrast?

(snip) The fact that Joe kept referring to his government as the Harris Biden administration and on some occasions called her President Harris further fuelled conspiracies It, therefore, wasn’t a matter of if but when Kamala Harris replaced Joe Biden.

On what was arguably the worst day of Joe Biden’s presidency, he was scheduled to address America and the world at 5 p.m. on August 26, 2021. We’d been told earlier that day that the President and Commander-In-Chief was going to address the bomb that killed Marines and a Navy corpsman in Kabul. Biden was 25 minutes late. That delay is not trivial. It has direct consequences on an ever-present 24/7 strategic threat that Russia, China, and North Korea pose to America.

President Joe Biden received praise from an unlikely source on Tuesday: Ann Coulter. Biden had just concluded his address to the nation on the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, ending a war that had lasted 20 years. The president has been criticized for failing to anticipate the rapid crumbling of Afghan security forces in the face of the Taliban’s advance. That caused a chaotic scene at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, where the U.S. military hurried to evacuate more than 123,000 Americans and Afghans despite being surrounded by the Taliban and ISIS-K.

I ask this question for two reasons: I have seen enough videos and read about enough officer-civilian interactions to know that the act of subduing a lethal threat requires several rounds. If an intruder entered my home and threatened my wife and child, I would shoot until I was able to ensure the target was immobilized. As to the first statement, there are plenty of examples of police officers firing multiple shots at a suspected threat. In the past year, the American public has been thoroughly able to parse through the shootings of criminals like Breonna Taylor and Antonio Brown, to name just two examples.

With the final military planes off the tarmac and out of Afghan airspace, the Biden administration was desperate to try to paint their deadly disaster as some sort of success. Each of the press secretaries and top officials at the White House, State Department, and Pentagon parroted the same talking point that it was the largest airlift in U.S. history. But CBS News popped their bubble Monday as they pointed out how the “hundreds” of Americans they abandoned in the terrorist haven would beg to differ. During their Special Report break-in for the Pentagon press conference with U.S. CENTCOM General Kenneth McKenzie, senior White House correspondent Ed O’Keefe seemed taken aback

Taking after Joe Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken finally showed up two hours late and spoke about the U.S. leaving Afghanistan after twenty years today. He spoke about how they were now going to be setting up diplomatic operations in Doha, Qatar rather than Kabul. He claimed a new “diplomatic mission” had begun. Blinken then claimed a new international consensus and the U.S. would hold the Taliban accountable to allow freedom of movement for people to leave. We didn’t even do that by the airport for Americans when we had troops there when they were right outside the gates. How are we going to guarantee anything without troops there?

In Virginia, a board member resigned over what she saw as politics driving decisions on masks. The vitriol at board meetings in Wisconsin had one member fearing he would find his tires slashed. School board members are largely unpaid volunteers, traditionally former educators and parents who step forward to shape school policy, choose a superintendent and review the budget. But a growing number are resigning or questioning their willingness to serve as meetings have devolved into shouting contests between deeply political constituencies
