President Joe Biden suggested Democrats were having political trouble because Americans were unaware of the party's accomplishments. 'We've done one hell of a job,' the president said Thursday afternoon at a high-dollar fundraiser at the Portland Yacht Club, co-hosted by The New Republic's owner and editor Win McCormack and his political consultant wife, Carol Butler. Biden said that 'because things have moved so rapidly, so profoundly' that 'they don't know a lot about what we've already done.' He cited some statistics like the creation of 7.9 million jobs, including 430,000 manufacturing jobs,

The polls indicate that the public has made up its mind about the true state of Biden's "accomplishments". Biden has always been an incompetent blowhard that, when challenged, just yelled louder. He is a nasty piece of work. Sadly, now, he lives in a fantasy world. He probably has no idea of the reality of the state of America. Heck, he is being led around by the Easter Bunny. It reminds me of the Dukakis "tank photo" that was a turning point for not taking him as a serious candidate. Unfortunately, we are stuck with Biden, or Kamala, or Pelousy, or another dem loser (because there are NO competent dems) until 2024. Then Joe will be quietly declared non compos mentis and retired to seclusion.

Leftists celebrated Earth Day on Friday by using it as a political wedge to cudgel those whom they oppose into compliance. Earth Day, first designated as an annual event in 1970, has origins that go back to ancient forms of paganism. For instance, nature worship or “earth religion” includes forms of paganism, such as “animism” (a worldview that all animals and plants have a spirit), “Wicca” (worship of earth mother goddess by magic), and “druidism” (the natural world is synonymous with divinity).According to Refinery 29, Earth Day is a “sacred holiday” and “a chance for Pagans to show gratitude to nature.” In that sense, “every day is Earth Day,” Pagan author

There are currently 16 Republicans and 11 Democrats representing Florida in the U.S. House of Representatives and the new map, which also adds an additional district, increases Republicans’ dominance in the state to what will likely amount to a 20-8 margin over the Democrats.The new map effectively targets seats held by Rep.
