We Tolerate Entirely Too Much Lying From Politicians

RFK Jr., in his recent announcement of his candidacy for president, declared that he was going to do something truly radical if elected president: tell the truth, no matter how uncomfortable or unpopular (emphasis added): "Truth is, when I was a little boy, nobody in this country would dream that our government would ever lie to the American people, in fact, and that’s not a joke. Nobody believed it back then. In May of 1960, that changed a little when Gary Powers crashes a U-2 in Russia and the Eisenhower administration denied that we had a U-2 program because they didn’t know it. They didn’t know at the time that

I have concluded that a majority of the American people either want to be lied to, because the lies suit their own comfortable agendas, or in their own self-absorption simply don't care.

The general acceptance of lying removes the possibility of differentiation between parties and specific politicians. Trump told us what his policies were and he acted consistently with that. When he failed such as completing the border wall, it was because he couldn't overcome the push back from others, not because he lied to us about his approach to the border crisis. Biden campaigned as a "moderate" and we have the most radical leftist administration in our history. Trump boasted and bragged endlessly about the biggest crowds the most secure border in our history which often stretched well beyond any reasonable boundary on the truth. But on the fundamental policy level I can't think of a thing where he claimed to be he would go in one direction and headed in a 180 ° different direction.

Conservative media are fond these days of telling people to fight, stand up, and not tolerate what our government is doing. The only place that’s happening is in some school districts that got some liberals thrown out and I applaud them, but that is local. I’m too old and too wise to waste my time standing on corners carrying signs. Feels good I guess but it’s meaningless. I’d love to hear what they really expect us to do. Storm the Capitol? That’s already been tried.

Trump needs an ad with a clip of Joe during the presidential debate denying Hunter's laptop and calling it misinformation. And he needs clips of Joe Biden in his racist moments : high tech lynchings of Clarence Thomas and Janice Rodgers Brown.

A Kennedy that does not lie?!? Be still, my heart! Allright, which party lies more? Democrats or Republicans? It might be the Republicans. The Democrats will tell you about their intentions for the most part. They will nail you right between the eyes with their intentions. People think they can't be that stupid or nobody will support them, but they are that stupid and people do support them. It's the Republicans that say one thing and do something 180 degrees opposite.

For me, it was Bill Clinton saying that he smoked pot, but didn't inhale. I was a Democrat but there was no way I was voting for a man who would lie to my face and tell me I wasn't supposed to care. Then, my party put him in the White House. I left the Democrat party and I've never looked back or regretted it. Sure, Republicans lie as well. But they get called on it, they get caught and even prosecuted. At least more often than Democrats. That's the way it should be.

A couple of days ago I saw a video clip that was a real breath of fresh air: link: https://headlineusa.com/mtg-muzzled-during-hearing-for-calling-mayorkas-a-liar-on-fentanyl-deaths-border-crisis/ Mayokas was spouting his usual lies about the border when Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene called him out on it, and she Did Not Mince Words! However, as usual, Leftist stooge Bennie Thompson objected and the committee chairman then 'struck her comment' and did not permit her to speak for the rest of the hearing. I tried to send her an email thanking her, but I do not live in her district, and the Congressional message system would not allow me to send her a Thank You. So, I sent my thank-you note to MY congressman's office with a preface asking them to forward my thanks to her.

Reporter Who Secretly Gave Biden Question

Posted by Hazymac 4/27/2023 8:32:31 AM Post Reply
As RedState reported, Joe Biden got caught red-handed again with a “cheat sheet” while giving a press conference on Wednesday. This time was a bit different than past occurrences, though. Biden has previously been observed having a pre-approved list of reporters on hand as well as outlines spelling out every syllable he’s supposed to utter. What made this time more concerning was that he had the actual question the reporter was set to ask him as well. In all my time following politics, I’ve never seen anything like this. (Snip) The excuse here will likely be that because this was a joint presser with a foreign dignitary, questions needed to be pre-screened.
Minnesota Legislation Seeks to Normalize
Pedophilia as a Sexual Orientation

Earlier this year I noted that the mainstream acceptance of transgenderism would be the precursor to the normalization of pedophilia. The evidence to support this was quite clear. And I’m sorry to say that I was right. The Minnesota legislature is in the process of changing the legal definition of “sexual orientation” that literally opens the door to mainstreaming pedophilia. Here’s how it’s being done. The bill modifies the existing Minnesota law that designates sexual orientation as a protected category, making it unlawful to discriminate based on sexual orientation within the state. The first thing it does is adds a definition for gender identity: (Snip) But this is not even the most
Democrats for Pedophilia 7 replies

Anyone who has been paying attention knows that lots of liberals have been grooming kids in recent years. Generally, though, they don’t admit it: there are lots of good reasons, supposedly, why drag queens should invade little kids’ libraries, and ask children to stuff dollar bills into their G-strings at drag shows. Here in Minnesota, we have something different: the Democratic Party is officially coming out in defense of pedophilia as a matter of law. Minnesota’s crazed DFL majorities have passed one extreme measure after another this session, but this one breaks new ground in service of pedophilia. The bill is HF 1655, sponsored by a man pretending

Happy Wednesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) Well, ladies and gentlemen, if you thought your 2020 hangover had finally subsided, it might be about to come roaring back. Joseph Robinette Biden is giving it a go and — despite so much speculation to the contrary — he’s dragging Kamala Harris along with him. It’s like being given the A Clockwork Orange treatment and having your eyes propped open while being forced to watch a sequel to a movie you never wanted to see in the first place. My colleagues covered the bad three-minute B-movie announcement brilliantly.
Biden His Time? 9 replies

It is hard to believe Joe Biden can possibly go through with this. He is no longer capable of doing a live press conference, and couldn’t even manage a live re-election announcement. National Review reminds us that in 2019 Biden apparently told confidantes that he’d be a one-term president, that it was “inconceivable” that he’d run again in 2024. So what’s behind this? And why so early? Reagan didn’t announce his re-election candidacy until early in 1984, though Bill Clinton announced his 1996 candidacy in April 1995. Therein likes the the beginning of an answer. In April 1995 Clinton’s poll numbers were still in the tank after the GOP landslide

Four more years is all Presidentish Joe Biden needs to “finish this job” he started on the nation in 2021. “I know we can,” he concluded in his pre-recorded re-election announcement video on Tuesday. A pre-recorded announcement? When someone announces they’re running for president, it’s a massive public event featuring the biggest and most enthusiastic crowd the candidate can muster. When it’s a sitting president, the pageantry and the crowds are practically built in. But not for Doddering Joe, whose people had to trickle out a video because they can’t trust their man to draw a crowd, not to screw it all up, or wander the wrong direction off
The many weaknesses of the Chinese economy 6 replies

A major weakness for the economy of China is centralized planning by its communist party, such as the one-child policy and “four modernizations” in 1978 which led to short term prosperity and an industrialized China, but also led to environmental degradation, income inequality, and corruption. There are other central planning failures such as its high-speed rail system which by the end of September 2021 was losing over $830 billion. Real estate was another area of failure, with dozens of ghost cities built for thousands of people with no occupants. The real estate bubble which burst bankrupting giants such as Evergrande and other real estate companies is another failure of central planning

Happy Monday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Sasha kept unwanted suitors at bay with a strong combination of tea tree oil and biting sarcasm. The United States of America is currently burdened by the fact that Joe Biden’s handlers want him to be in office until he’s 612 years old. Given the fact that the Dems don’t care if their elected officials are demented, debilitated, or — in some cases — dead, it’s difficult to see how to get rid of their walking wounded.

ESPN launched in 1979 as the Entertainment and Sports Network, broadcasting on cable and satellite television, focusing on sports programming. ESPN in recent years discovered a new sport, wokeness, in keeping with most of corporate America. From the usual America bashing to playing Chinese genocide apologist, sports has become a sideshow for ESPN with their main event competing with CNN, MSNBC, and the New York Times in the woke world series. Women’s sports have come a long way over the past decades, with most sports having both men’s and women’s divisions, including world championships and the Olympic Games.

Nikki Haley doesn’t have a prayer to become the next President of the United States, although she is a viable VP candidate for sure. I’ve always had a generally positive impression of her. She is smart, was a good governor, and one of the most reliable and well-spoken of the Trump appointees. With that said, I was pretty stunned by her cheap shot at Ron DeSantis. I am pretty sure that it will alienate quite a number of people, although to me it’s pretty clear that Republican voters are not the intended recipients of her message. Looking at the language of the tweet her message is clear: she is on board with

The board of supervisors first enacted the law in an effort to punish states that had enacted what it viewed as restrictions on LGBT rights after the Supreme Court’s decision in Obergefell v. Hodges legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. Since 2015, the board had amended the law to include states that, in its view
