President Joe Biden struggles with sit-down interviews. On Friday, the White House pulled the executive gaffe machine out of the traditional pre-Super Bowl sit-down with the network airing the game — which, this year, is Fox News. Biden aides had attempted to circumvent the primary network by scheduling an interview with Fox Soul, a small streaming platform aimed at black Americans owned by the same parent company as Fox News.(snip)wrote White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre in a morning tweet. “We’ve been informed that Fox Corp has asked for the interview to be cancelled.”

I would watch it if they interviewed Kevin McCarthy or Jim Jordan instead. At least it would be useful information and not performative art.

This is very good news. I never liked putting politics before a sports event. Give it a break! I hope this ends the practice.

Pull a Clint Eastwood and have it anyway. Only instead of an empty chair, put an eggplant, atop a cantaloupe, atop a pumpkin....like a snowman. For a soundtrack used canned nonsense from KJP.

If you feel a need to hear a senile old person ramble then drop into a local nursing facility. Unlike the bidet, those people will genuinely appreciate your time, company and effort.

“The people sent us a clear message.

You just can't get along with MAGA's. What am I supposed to do to prove I'm sincere? No Joke." President Potato Head Feb. 11, 2023

Strange, a sitting President, running for re-elect ,the weekend following the SOTU, while he is actually on a "victory Lap" of public appearances in various swing states....refuses to appear on the "Most Watched, most Popular Network...in the World". Fox should fill the time spot with Gutfeld, and a Biden impersonator or a ventriloquist with a Biden lap dummy, maybe a marionette. Compare ratings/viewer numbers/ rigor of Q&A. No matter to me....I won't be watching anyway. I haven't watched a down/inning/period of Sportsball since Kapernic still wore a uniform. Nor a full length Live anything with Biden since his ridiculous campaign event at the Toledo Union Hall, with that tiny audience forced to sit in their cars.(There was a larger group of other Union Members protesting outside the venue on the street)

Quid Pro Joe has lies for all occassions. On football he claims that he was admitted to the Naval Academy but he turned it down because he didn't want to go there and embarass Roger Stauback by beating him out for the QB of the their football team.

“The President was looking forward to an interview with Fox Soul to discuss the Super Bowl, the State of the Union, and critical issues impacting the everyday lives of Black Americans. We’ve been informed that Fox Corp has asked for the interview to be cancelled.” - White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre in a morning tweet. WTP, heard that he had rejected an invitation for an interview with Fox, the major network that is hosting the Super Bowl. Such an interview has been the custom. Also, we heard that he signed with a small streaming platform owned by Fox & geared toward black Americans, so that KJP could make just such a statement blaming Fox, if the network didn’t fall for the tactic, & ballyhooing him to the heavens if the tactic did work. We thought his message was supposed to be all about bringing the country together in “unity & understanding”. If so, shouldn’t WTP, of every race, expect that he would use the opportunity of the Network interview to address the everyday lives of ALL Americans to promote that message?

Good idea, #8. Perhaps they could get Jeff Dunham to do the interview with his dummy, Walter. It looks and acts just like Joe.

New medical diagnosis codes for COVID-19 immunization status have been added in the United States. One code is for being “unvaccinated for COVID-19.” That code “may be assigned when the patient has not received at least one dose of any COVID-19 vaccine,” the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which implemented the new codes in 2022, states in a document outlining the codes. Another code is for being partially vaccinated or having received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine but not having received enough doses to meet the CDC’s definition of fully vaccinated. The goal of the codes is “to track people who are not immunized or only partially

For much of 2017 through 2021, Americans suffered the “bombshell” and “walls are closing” mythologies first of Russian collusion, then of supposedly vast Russian social media investments to sabotage the election. From there we moved on to the Alfa Bank (snip) the supposed Putin bounties on U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan that Trump was said to have ignored and, of course, the idea that Hunter’s laptop was just “Russian disinformation.” These were journalistic sins of commission, warping the news cycle to advance ideological agendas and win elections. There emerged, however, other real landmines of omission—things the media deliberately ignores, but have the potential to go off and blow up a presidency.

In March 2020, American politicians orchestrated what would become the greatest assault against their citizens’ civil liberties in the modern era. Under the guise of “public health,” federal and state officials employed the outbreak of the Covid-19 virus to implement disastrous and ineffective lockdown policies, which crushed American jobs and small businesses, shuttered places of worship, and kept low-risk children out of school. Despite a lack of evidence showing such policies were effective at containing the respiratory virus, politicians and government bureaucrats charged ahead, abusing the so-called “public health emergency” to implement fruitless mask and vaccine mandates, while simultaneously ignoring data regarding natural immunity and potentially life-saving treatments.

Since President Trump left office, many of the “trustworthy” media outlets have created a talking point that is now held by a minority, yet noticeable number of Conservative Americans. The belief is “DeSantis is Trump, without the baggage.” This group supported President Trump’s policies and felt he did a tremendous job as president, but now feel the baggage that came with Trump would not be present with Ron DeSantis. Many have taken this a step further and believe this baggage would give DeSantis (or others) a better chance of winning in a general election against the Democrat nominee than President Trump.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.  — A group of Catholic women claims they were denied Communion at an Englewood church for wearing rainbow-colored face masks. Sally Odenheimer said it was an effort to show support for Maggie Barton, an LGBTQ teacher fired from the church’s affiliated Catholic school. Barton claims she was fired from All Souls Catholic School in Englewood after the Archdiocese of Denver learned of her same-sex relationship.The Archdiocese said she was fired because she violated her contract, which includes “refraining from taking any public position or conducting himself or herself in a manner that is contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church.”

There were two things that I missed during Sunday’s Super Bowl LVII in Glendale, Arizona, between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. The first was Kansas City’s game-winning drive, which saw kicker Harrison Butker seal the underdog Chiefs’ 38-35 victory with a last-second field goal. My inattention was unintentional; my daughter, in the throes of a stomach flu that’s currently working its way through the family, decided to decorate our floor as the game came down to the wire. Que sera sera. The second was pop star Rihanna’s halftime show — or at least the audio portion. This was wholly intentional, since I’ve heard Rihanna’s music before

U.S. intelligence officials were tracking the spy balloon that was shot down earlier this month since it lifted off from the south coast of China, U.S. officials said Tuesday. According to U.S. officials, after takeoff, the spy balloon drifted east in the direction of Guam and Hawaii and then went north to Alaska and entered U.S. airspace on Jan. 28. Given the path, it's possible that the balloon was blown off course by weather, but U.S. officials said that once it came south over the continental United States, it was being controlled by China. The tracking of the balloon was first reported by The Washington Post. China has insisted
