Could Kamala Harris Cost Joe Biden the
2024 Election?
Posted By: Hazymac, 4/29/2023 1:21:41 PM
While I’m not fond of “unpack” in this usage, there’s a lot to unpack in answering the headline question. Yes, Kamala Harris is arguably the most unqualified person in history to serve as vice president. Even worse, given the reality of 80-year-old Joe Biden’s mental decline, her ill-advised selection in 2020 puts the Democrat Party in a precarious position with respect to the 2024 presidential election. As conservative columnist Kristin Tate told Fox News Digital, “Kamala Harris is one of the most unlikable and uninspiring public figures in modern political history.” The approval rating of the Cackling Queen of Word Salads™ hasn’t surpassed 40 percent since her first year in office,

Who Killed Jeffrey Epstein?
10 replies
It is great fun to joke about how the Clintons must be the force behind the suspicious death of Jeffrey Epstein in his New York City jail cell in 2019, but after the bombshell story published this morning in the Wall Street Journal about heretofore unknown close connections Epstein had we’re moved to ask: who didn’t have a motive for wanting him gone?
The story is behind the Journal‘s paywall, and if you don’t have a subscription it will be worth buying at the newsstand tomorrow, when it will surely appear in print. Here are a few highlights and surprises from the story:
• Epstein had several meetings
There’s a lot to cover from Saturday evening’s annual nerd prom, otherwise known as the White House Correspondents Dinner. Rest assured, we’ll cover it all in various articles, but the night is best-enjoyed bite by bite.
With that said, at some point, Joe Biden took the stage to give the crowd what they all came for. Specifically, a bad president reading bad jokes with all the skill and precision of a budget barber. In other words, Biden is the bowl cut of comedians.
Case in point? This battle in Biden’s ongoing war with his teleprompter where he suggests that Mickey Mouse beat the hell out of him for some reason.

Once Again — the Shooter Isn't a Drooling
Redneck in a MAGA Hat 12 replies
A mass shooting in Texas has left five people dead, including one child, and three more kids wounded.
The whispering imps in the lefty, Pravda news industry didn’t want to mention that the shooter is a Mexican national, though at least one was quick to point out the type of gun he used.
“5 dead in Texas ‘execution-style’ shooting, suspect armed with AR-15 is on the loose,” ABC reported.
Fast facts about the mass shooting in Texas:
Francisco Oropeza, 39, was firing his rifle around midnight. His neighbors asked him to stop.
Oropeza approached his neighbor’s home, entered, and began firing.
All of the dead victims were shot “execution style” in the head.
Have you heard Robert Kennedy, Jr. speak? This cat is on a mission. He takes no prisoners. He talks about “the system” as though it killed his dad and uncle.
RFK Jr. announced he is running for president. As of April 19, 2023, he had snagged 14% of Biden’s voters just by declaring his candidacy. Then he began to talk. Now, ten days later, RealClearPolitics currently has RFK Jr. at 20%. Not too shabby.
FACT-O-RAMA! The name “Kennedy” is still considered to be American royalty by people 55 years and older, and those people tend to vote.
RFK Jr. is saying a lot of things I wish more Republicans would say.

Is Integrity Dead?
6 replies
In light of what we are witnessing and experiencing in the world today, integrity may seem like an old-fashioned concept unrelated to modern life. If we look up the definition of integrity in the Merriam-Webster online dictionary, we will learn that integrity means “adherence to a strict moral or ethical code; incorruptible; honest; virtuous.” Unfortunately, when we read the daily news headlines, we may think there are no people left with any shred of integrity because almost every news story has to do with corruption, dishonesty, or lack of virtue.
We also don’t hear much about “walking your talk” these days unless in conjunction with a Twelve Step addiction recovery program
This week Joe Biden touted a laundry list of immigration carrots and sticks intended to disincentivize illegal immigration at the southern border now that he's lifting the sparsely enforced Title 42 restrictions on May 11.
They were mostly carrots. The New York Times called them a "new back door on immigration," and explained that its permissiveness went well beyond the lawful congressional parameters for the admission of immigrants.
The response? More migrants at the border than ever. They're massing now in record numbers. Call it 5/11. (Snip) That sounds extreme, but it's based on local Border Patrol reports and there are confirming reports of very large numbers of migrants massing
Next month, it will be 31 years since The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson aired its farewell episode. We all knew that Carson was irreplaceable. Greatly modified expectations got late-night fans through the first several years after Carson retired. The Jay Leno/David Letterman succession mess really threw a dark cloud over the beginning of the post-Carson era.
It is well known that Carson wanted Letterman to replace him. Personally, I always thought that Dave was too quirky for the Tonight Show audience. Heck, I thought he was too quirky for that time slot, but he proved me wrong on that one.
Because Leno and Letterman had already been on television so much,
So-called “transgenderism” was once a weird sexual-fetish activity that existed at the periphery of American society. It’s now moved front and center, something that is inordinately dangerous. Americans are beginning to understand the danger to our children from a movement that is compulsively and pathologically drawn to children, both for sexual excitement and recruitment, but people need to recognize that the so-called “transgender” crowd is also encouraging itself to be violently dangerous to all Americans.
Mark Tapson, one of the most insightful writers about cultural issues, has written a powerful essay about the nexus between gender ideology, violence, and, inevitably, full-blown terrorism.
A new report is shedding more light on one of Biden’s biggest liabilities as he heads into his coronation as the 2024 Democratic Party presidential nominee.
According to Axios, the president’s age and subsequent laziness have become a campaign issue for voters, and it’s something the White House is having a tough time covering up. That’s exacerbated by the fact that their attempts to hide Biden only highlight the issue further. (Snip) The White House rarely puts Biden in improvisational settings — or in front of hostile questions from reporters. So it’s tough for anyone outside his tight bubble to truly appraise the reality of Biden being the oldest
The Times Says Senility Is A-OK
21 replies
Democrats have mostly given up on denying that Joe Biden is suffering from an advanced stage of dementia. Their strategy, as exemplified by their mouthpiece the New York Times, has shifted to a defense of senility. Do we need a mentally competent president? Nah.
This morning’s Times email, which is curated by David Leonhardt, the Times’s “senior writer” who writes for “The Times’s flagship daily newsletter,” said this morning:
"Strange as it may sound, the American government can function without a healthy president."
Hey, Edith Wilson did a great job!
The issue that makes many Democrats even more anxious than Biden’s second-term capabilities is whether his age will prevent him from winning a second
In a video announcement that he is running for reelection President Biden is portrayed as a champion of freedom. In reality, no president has done more to impinge on the freedoms of Americans.
First, Biden says he is standing up for fundamental freedoms and then he says he is about standing up for personal freedoms. This is doublespeak. Doublespeak is when words seem to be about something they are not. It is another way of lying. Conservatives need to call it out as that.
In truth, Democrats are about control. The only way they are about freedom

DENVER – Your lawn may be the next climate change battleground. And parks. And playgrounds. Regulators and clean-air advocates are increasingly eyeing the pollution emitted by small gasoline engines used to power lawn mowers and leaf blowers as they seek to blunt climate change. Advocates say using a commercial gas leaf blower for an hour produces emissions equal to driving from Denver to Los Angeles. Among cities and states with bans or limits: California; Burlington, Vermont; Vancouver, Canada; and Washington, D.C. While many critics first attacked the small engines for the noise they make, experts say these small, two-stroke engines release
Before his death in 1964, Ian Fleming wrote 14 books about James Bond, and the literary franchise, just like 007 himself, has proved unkillable. Writers from Kingsley Amis to Anthony Horowitz have taken up the mantle and produced Bond novels. But we’ve had to wait until now, with Kim Sherwood’s new novel “Double or Nothing,” for the Fleming estate to pass the baton to a woman. Although it would be misleading to say that this latest Bond novel is actually about Bond. More than an addition to the canon, “Double or Nothing” is an expansion of the universe, and an
Dobbs was probably leaked by Sotomayor

The Supreme Court decision last year in Dobbs v. Jackson overruled Roe v. Wade, their 1973 decision that purported to find an abortion right in a U.S. Constitution that never mentions or alludes to it. Abortion is now rightly governed by the people’s elected legislators, and, sadly, to some extent by unelected bureaucrats, but, in any event, not by judges.
The Dobbs decision was leaked a couple of months in advance of its issuance.
“Cringe” somehow doesn’t suffice here. This is supra-cringe, trans-cringe.
Biden’s handlers invited the Air Force football team to congratulate them on their past season and rolled their charge out to meet them for a brief photo op.It would seem to be quite a simple task for a lifelong Swamp member: smile like you’re greeting old friends, gladhand like only a plastic politician can, gracefully accept the gifts, smile for the cameras some more, and depart.
But even that mission was too much for the alleged President to complete.
Via Military Times:
Ever since the 69-year-old conspiratorial activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declared his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination last week, a curious new category has appeared among the commentariat—libertarians and/or right-of-center journalists expressing strange new respect for a Hugo Chavez–admiring scion of the Establishment who has serially fantasized about throwing his political opponents in jail. (snip) Recasting RFK Jr. as a foe of censorship and potential tamer of government requires ignoring what he has been and imagining things he'll never be. (snip)
So is the enemy of your enemy your friend? Depends on your tolerance for unlikely conspiracy theories, and your comfort level in Kennedy's proposed punishments for alleged perpetrators.

On Monday, Hunter Biden will finally make it to Arkansas. The Natural State is not a Biden family favorite but there is one thing that would ordinarily be an attraction: Biden’s daughter Navy Joan. In the Biden family, the four-year-old girl remains “she who must not be named” literally. Not only has President Biden refused to refer to her as a grandchild or even include a Christmas stocking with the other children, her father Hunter is fighting to prevent her from using the Biden name. Indeed, the only reason that Hunter is coming to the same state with his daughter is to seek to limit his child support.
While speaking about his recently-announced re-election bid at a Democratic National Committee (DNC) reception on Friday, President Biden stated that “MAGA Republicans” are “the real problem” Americans are facing today.
“The real problem is those MAGA Republicans,” Biden told assembled Democrats. “MAGA Republicans are trying to take us backwards. But together, we’re not going to let them do it. Not an inch back.”
Right now, Joe Biden’s biggest enemy in the 2024 election is Joe Biden.
If you are an incumbent president, there are many possible recipes for success in re-election—but slow and declining economic growth topped with persistently high inflation is not one of them.The economic news is ugly for the country, which will get over it eventually, and even uglier for Joe Biden, who may not get over it at all.
After two consecutive quarters of “Don’t Call This a Recession!” GDP contraction, growth had got up to more than 3 percent in the third quarter of last year, and then it declined to 2.6 percent in the next quarter
A former top executive at Donald Trump’s Truth Social media company who was booted for becoming a whistleblower is back to the daily grind — as a $16-an-hour Starbucks barista.
“It’s an honest day’s work,” Will Wilkerson told the Washington Post of his new gig in North Carolina. Wilkerson, 38, provided 150,000 emails, contracts and other internal documents to the Securities and Exchange Commission and probers in Florida and New York who are examining Trump’s Media and Technology Group.
Sometimes you watch an interview and have to do a double-take to make sure it’s not an episode of Saturday Night Live. That was the case when I came across a clip of Meet the Press that I can only describe as absolutely bonkers.In it, Vivek Ramaswamy battles Chuck Todd over the topic of gender, and Todd’s reaction to Ramaswamy stating some basic truths is truly unbelievable (Newsbusters). (Tweet/Video) Chuck Todd: You’re calling it that, but how do you know it’s that? Again, how do you know? Are you confident that you know that gender is as binary as you’re describing it? Are you confident?
Ramaswamy: I am.

GOP Senator Ron Johnson joined "Sunday Morning Futures" to discuss the investigation into the Biden family business dealings and Secretary of State Antony Blinken's alleged contact with Hunter, expressing his belief that Blinken ‘lied boldface’ to Congress - not just about his contact with Hunter Biden, but "so much more.” “… What is interesting, Maria [Bartiromo], and here's a little news for you. Antony Blinken finally did come in and sit down for a voluntary transcribed interview in December of 2020 because he wanted to be Secretary of State. And now, because of more information that's come out, we know that he lied boldface to Congress about never emailing
At least 15 people were shot, two of them fatally, Friday into Sunday morning in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) Chicago.
ABC 7 / Chicago Sun-Times reported the first of the two fatal shootings was discovered Saturday morning around 12:30 a.m., when officers found a 39-year-old man with a gunshot wound on the ground “in the 4900-block of West Hubbard Street.” The man was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. Just after noon on Saturday a 32-year-old man was standing “in the 5200-block of West Adams Street” when at least one person inside a sedan opened fire, striking him numerous times.
