The Supreme Court Is The Last Functioning
Institution In America
Posted By: 4250Luis, 3/5/2024 5:11:01 AM
In a 9-0 decision, the Supreme Court ruled states cannot use section 3 of the 14th Amendment to kick Donald Trump off state ballots over his alleged “insurrectionist” actions on Jan. 6, 2021. Learning that state officials aren’t empowered to simply toss leading presidential candidates off ballots came as a great surprise to many incredulous left-wingers. Once you’ve convinced yourself Trump led a Hitlerian putsch that nearly overthrew democracy, every crackpot legal theory aimed at stopping him sounds not only morally justified but legally sound.

Trying to convince people is an endless quest, that’s why it is better to just lay out the truth without agenda, then wait until the predictable pressure builds and it just floats to the surface and people find it. The truth has no agenda; remember that! You might remember as you read this that Henry Barbour is Harmeet Dhillon’s RNC compatriot. Then, suddenly, things from last year in California will start to make sense.
(Via The Hill) – The Republican National Committee (RNC) failed to earn enough support from states to bring a resolution to ban paying former President Trump’s legal bills to a vote.

All Bush Republicans Who Targeted Him
and Donald Trump 16 replies
NBC is clutching their pearls as Texas AG Ken Paxton celebrates dozens of victories for his endorsed state candidates who primaried Bush-supported Republicans. Additionally, his endorsements and support for the challengers in Texas has led to an additional ten runoff elections, including the potential removal of Texas House Speaker Dade Phelan who led impeachment proceedings against him. The media uses terms like “revenge” and “anger,” however, most of the MAGA coalition smile and think of Paxton as the leading candidate to be nominated by President Trump for U.S Attorney General next year. Yeah, this article is buckets of awesome.

first lady 'will not be running for president'

Former President Barack Obama has said he’s “all in” for President Joe Biden’s re-election effort. But a question nagging at many Democrats is what role his popular spouse might play.
Democrats nervously looking ahead to November say they want to see Michelle Obama playing a bigger role in the campaign. Some even whisper about the possibility that she might replace a politically hobbled incumbent on the 2024 ticket this summer — making her a fantasy candidate for members of both parties, albeit for different reasons.

Biden family whistleblower Tony Bobulinski sued for defamation Democrats’ star witness in the Jan. 6 Committee’s show trials.
Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to Donald Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, famously testified two years ago that President Trump tried to violently hijack a security limousine and drive himself to the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. The sources she cited at the hearing almost immediately went on record to contradict her sworn testimony. Legacy networks NBC, CBS, and CNN reported Hutchinson’s sources were prepared to go under oath to testify that her claims were false.
Very Important Columnists Tom Schaller and Paul Waldman just released their book White Rural Rage, about flyover Americans and their support for Donald Trump. They’re doing rounds through the Democrat media circuit to plug it. One of those fun little appearances happened on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
It’s hard to put into words just how delusional and dishonest the segment was — as in, every single word. These highfalutin “journalists” have their heads so far up their own keisters, they wouldn’t know the honest truth if it introduced itself by name and punched them in the face.

Says Hunter Used Joe To Get Deals ‘Across
The Finish Line’ 4 replies
Former Biden family business associate Jason Galanis told lawmakers last month that Joe Biden was used repeatedly to get deals “across the finish line.”
On Monday, the House Oversight Committee released the transcript of lawmakers’ interview with Jason Galanis, who was a colleague of Hunter Biden and Devon Archer between 2012 and 2015. Their goal, Galanis said, “was to make billions, not millions.” Access to Vice President Biden, according to House testimony, was one of their primary products sold to foreign businessmen.
“Our business included the acquisition of an 85-year-old Wall Street firm, Burnham and Company,
Have you noticed that President Biden’s hold on his core constituencies is more uncertain these days than his stumbling attempts to board Air Force One? Biden’s abundant weaknesses give President Trump and his campaign a target-rich atmosphere where they can tempt people who usually vote for Democrats to vote differently. Teachers, for example, usually vote for Democrats. Mr. Trump can sway many of them this year by promising to remove an unnecessary burden from public education.
President Biden wants the G7 countries to develop a plan to eventually have Russia's frozen sovereign assets handed over Ukraine in order to support the war effort, Bloomberg has reported. Bloomberg's source have also said the US president has privately warned allies that Ukraine's collapse, and a Russian victory, would signify the international order is effectively destroyed for at least the next half-century.
"G-7 officials have been discussing options to use the $280 billion of immobilized Russian Central Bank assets, including using the money as collateral to raise debt or issuing guarantees against the frozen funds
MTA chief Janno Lieber said Friday that like it or not, congestion pricing is happening — as about 100 New York City firefighters and scores of other foes showed up at a public hearing in Manhattan to protest it.
While the hearing was the transit agency’s second in two days to supposedly listen to the public over the proposed back-breaking new $15 Midtown toll, Lieber told reporters during a break that any attempts to halt the plan are DOA at this point.
“This is frequently represented like I went on a drinking binge and came up with this idea in funding the MTA,’’

Julie Kelly essentially notes that Special Prosecutor Jack Smith is asking DC Judge James Boasberg to decide what evidence should be given to Florida Judge Aileen Cannon.
Julie Kelly (Via Twitter) – “It appears that records related to the grand jury proceedings in DC on the classified docs case remain under seal and have not been transmitted to Judge Cannon or defense.
Recall that almost the entire investigation into the classified docs matter took place in Washington DC–not southern FLA even though it is the controlling jurisdiction since the alleged “crime” of retaining classified records/national defense info happened at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach.
The House Judiciary Committee is calling CBS on the carpet over the firing of veteran reporter Catherine Herridge, who was probing the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, and the subsequent seizure of her personal records, The Post has learned.
In a scathing letter sent to CBS News President Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews on Friday — obtained exclusively by The Post — Rep. Jim Jordan, who chairs the committee, demanded the network reveal who at CBS or parent-company Paramount Global “made the decision to terminate” Herridge.
The committee said it also wants to know why her confidential files were “seized” as part of the termination.

Indiana Republican Sen. Todd Young told the media on Friday, days after former President Trump’s commanding Super Tuesday performance, that he will not be endorsing the former president. "Nothing's changed from my standpoint," Young told CNN after WWEV 44 News reported that Young will not support Trump due to the former president’s position and comments on Russia’s war in Ukraine.
"I trust the people I represent to make their own decisions on who they’re going to vote for."
The outlet reported that Young has not decided who he will support in November.

Fresh off threatening to punch black Trump supporters in the face, Charles Barkley doubled down, calling any black person who wears Trump mugshot merchandise “a freakin’ idiot.”
Barkley takes issue with former President Trump comparing his legal and political plight with that of black individuals in America. He’s made it abundantly clear he’s not a fan of Trump, who he refers to as a “white billionaire” who is “asinine” and “stupid.” He made his clarifying comments on Wednesday’s edition of “King Charles” on CNN.
On Saturday, the basketball star bluntly stated, “If I see a black person walking around with a Trump mugshot, I’m gonna punch him in the face.”
Joe Biden’s fiery but mostly peaceful State of the Union address prompted many to suggest that he had been drugged before the speech to ensure an energetic performance.
I don’t doubt that many wags made those comments in jest, but it may actually be the truth. A psychiatrist who specializes in elderly dementia patients told the Washington Times that Biden displayed behaviors indicative of stimulant usage to conceal cognitive decline during his State of the Union address on Thursday.
While Democrats were rushing to claim that his performance proved that he was physically and mentally capable of handling the presidency, Dr. Carole Lieberman, a forensic psychiatrist based in Beverly Hills, Calif.,
Pound sand, y'all. That's my interpretation of how Houston Mayor John Whitmire handled a demand from the city's Mulsim community. Houston Muslim leaders issued a 24-hour deadline to the mayor in their demand that he call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war. There was a Thursday 5:00 p.m. deadline for the mayor to call for a ceasefire and Mayor Whitmire did not meet that deadline. More than 40 Muslim Imams and organizations threatened to boycott the city's annual Ramadan dinner. And, they threatened to remove their support. They said if he did not meet their demand Whitmire would lose audiences, business partners, and also votes.
Progressive Democrats are furious at President Joe Biden for accurately describing the man suspected of murdering 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley.
Biden addressed Riley’s death during his State of the Union address Thursday evening after he was heckled by Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R., Ga.) and misstated her name in the process.
“Lincoln (sic) Riley, an innocent young women who was killed by an illegal, that’s right,” Biden said while holding up a pin with her name on it. “To her parents I say, my heart goes out to you having lost children myself, I understand,” he added.
Progressive lawmakers led by Representative Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) objected
Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) For over 30 years now, my preference when it comes to the State of the Union address is to avoid the televised applause break circus and read the transcript later. That used to mean waiting until the next day to read it in the paper. Now I don't have to delay the torture.
Last night, while my good friend Stephen Green was doing one of his patented live VodkaPundit Drunkblogs to cover the speech, I was making hot sauce. It's a new hobby of mine. It keeps me off the street and, hey, one more handy skill
During more than three years of his presidency, Joe Biden has become known as much for his bursts of anger and yelling as for his serial lying and concocting mumbling words that make zero sense.
[snip] He had one last opportunity to at least try to somewhat heal — if just a bit — a nation further fractured by his divisive presidency.
Yet, there Joe was: "Us against them" vs. "Let's try to come together." The latter was not to happen.
Instead, a very angry president screamed at House Republicans and about Donald Trump — and even looked the Supreme Court justices in the eye and politically chastised them
Boy, are they desperate.
The internal polling on African Americans must be through the roof for Donald Trump.
After his nasty dishonest SOTU Address last night – the Biden team released a new ad on Friday comparing Trump supporters to the KKK.
The Biden ad shows images of Donald Trump with KKK marchers and a noose.
Why is this not flagged by Google-YouTube for violent content and misinformation? [Video]
As everyone knows the KKK was the militant wing of the Democrat Party.
When the Civil War ended, and after Republican President Abraham Lincoln liberated the slaves, Democrats initiated Jim Crow laws to punish blacks.
Democrats continued for decades to discriminate against blacks.
An investigation by the Department of Defense into UFO sightings found no evidence to support the possibility of extraterrestrial life.
The Pentagon published a report on Friday by its All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) reviewing 80 years of UFO sightings and concluded there is no evidence UFO sighting reflected the existence of alien life.
“AARO found no evidence that any USG investigation, academic-sponsored research, or official review panel has confirmed that any sighting of a UAP represented extraterrestrial technology,” the DoD report summarizes. Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) is the technical term used to classify UFOs.
The SOTU from Hell
19 replies
The comedian Richard Lewis, of blessed memory, is credited with the formulation “the x from hell.” Having watched President Biden’s State of the Union Address last night in order to comment on it this morning, I found it to be the SOTU from hell. Thank you, Mr. Lewis.
The White House has posted the text of the speech “as prepared for delivery.” That isn’t exactly how he gave it. You have to see it to get the full flavor. I have posted the White House video at the bottom.
Herewith are my impressions of Biden’s delivery and my observations on the speech in the form of bullet points:
Capitol Police arrested Gold Star father Steve Nikoui — whose son, Lance Corporal Kareem Nikoui, lost his life in the Abbey Gate bombing during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan — during President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address Thursday night.
“Tonight at approximately 10:15 p.m., a man disrupted the State of the Union Address by yelling,” Capitol Police said in a statement provided to NR. “Our officers told him to stop and when he did not, the man was removed from the House Galleries and was arrested for D.C. Code § 22–1307 – Crowding, Obstructing, or Incommoding. Disrupting the Congress and demonstrating in the Congressional Buildings is illegal.
