House Knew There Was Easter Overlap

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 4/2/2024 10:55:39 AM

On Monday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “Cuomo,” Democratic strategist James Carville reacted to criticism of the Biden White House for its proclamation of Transgender Day of Visibility falling on Easter by stating, “as if Biden even knew it was” Transgender Day of Visibility and saying that he doesn’t think that “anybody in the White House was aware of” the overlap between Transgender Day of Visibility and Easter. Carville said, “What I honestly think, it’s profoundly stupid, as if Biden even knew it was transgender awareness day. By the way, Biden goes to Mass and Communion every week, as you well know. You couldn’t find Trump in the inside

If the White House wasn't aware it was Easter, why the egg roll and it proves there are no Christians working there.

We didn’t know there were millions of people crossing the border. How are we supposed to keep up with the price of eggs and every other product? Crime is a local matter; how are we supposed to keep up with that? How are we supposed to keep up with how Ukraine spends the money? We didn’t get any of it, but how are we supposed to know whether we did or didn’t? Oooh, gotta go marine 1 is leaving for the beach.

"...it’s profoundly stupid, as if Biden even knew it was transgender awareness day." I can well believe that Biden is profoundly brain damaged enough to not know it was even Easter but I also believe Carville is profoundly stupid (and evil and demented) enough to think that no one in the White House noticed it.

As usual, Carville lies through his teeth. They knew alright. It's only when they got severe pushback that they tried to back and fill. Democrats prove every day how corrupt, immoral and stupid they are!

This is rich coming from a man who three weeks ago suggested that Biden should let others do the "wet work" for him to get President Trump. And the corrupt media ignored this hint of an assassination but went ballistic over President Trump saying that there would be a 'bloodbath' in the automobile industry if Biden was re-elected.

Apparently Trans Visibility Day was established in 2009, under Obama. Not sure he had anything to do with it, but it’s a safe bet that he did. What we really need is Trans Invisibility Day, but those who are so needy of attention aren’t capable.

Isn't it their job to know these things? Don't they look at a calendar? So nobody knew it was Easter? Bet they sll knew it was Transgender Day. They probably had some rainbow colored eggs but not religious egg decorations.

I have no trouble at all in believing that Joe Biden did not know tranny day and easter were the same day. If Joe didn't have the helicopter to take him to Delaware every weekend he couldn't find his way home. Certainly he signed the Proclamation. They gave him a paper with an X marked where he signs it and he signed it.. Like he does everything else they lay in front of him. His mind is blank, he just does what they tell him to do.

Most calendars will note that 3/31 is Easter this year. If Biden is a 'Devout Catholic' the priest probably mentioned Easter at some point. So issuing a lengthy and slobbering Trans Visibility proclamation on the same day should have raised some eyebrows.

I agree with Carville. I don't think anyone in Biden's White House staff knew when Easter was. I also don't think Biden knew anything about transgender day. One of Biden's clueless staff wrote the proclamation, signed Biden's name to it, and posted it on the Whitehouse website. If it even occurred to any of Brandon's handlers or staff that some people might take offense at proclaiming Easter is transgender visibility day they figured that none of those Christian rubes would vote for Biden anyway. They couldn't move it to the next day, because their base would have gotten upset if they proclaimed that April Fools Day was transgender day

re Trump not going to church. First of all, we do not know. Second of all, "by their fruits you shall know them." Trump is better for the poor. So get lost "Catholic" pro-abortion Democrats. go away and plan your speech to St. Peter. You will need one. Trump is better for the poor than you are. Safer neighborhoods, better schools, less inflation, and higher paying jobs based on a jobs environment rich with America's energy resources in spite of your luxuryt beliefs. go away. you are doing a rotten job.

Either Biden wasn't told about this, or he did know and is lying, as usual, or he was told and forgot he did it because of his dementia. If it's the first, then Biden is not running things and is being kept in the dark all the time. If he forgot because of his dementia, then where is the "razor sharp mind" his handlers keep talking about? If it's a lie, then you cannot believe anything he says, which means we are in real trouble. I just hope we can make it to November and get rid of this guy in the election.

It was this concentration of support in key swing states including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin that gave Biden the edge that year. But in a new Wall Street Journal survey of the seven swing states, Biden continues to struggle to recreate the 2020 electoral coalition that paved his way to the White House.

The Biden administration is secretly using migrant flights to dump illegal aliens into the United States. It turns out that most of them are being flown into Florida and Texas. Hmm.

The Center for Immigration Studies analyzed available public information on U.S. Customs and Border Protection's (CBP) website. It's difficult to know the full picture since the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) refuses to publicly identify the dozens of international airports it has approved for direct flights from abroad for some inadmissible aliens.

The special counsel urged Cannon to “promptly” decide whether the legal premise in question represents a “correct formulation of the law,” and indicated that federal prosecutors might file an appeal if the judge rules against them.

Tesla, Inc. stock took a hit Tuesday as the electric vehicle maker posted sales numbers showing their first year-over-year quarterly decline since 2020. As of this writing, the stock is down five percent for the day, and it's tumbled 34 percent over the last six months. The sales drop comes amidst increasing competition and a lowered customer appetite for EVs. The Austin, Texas, company said Tuesday that it delivered 386,810 vehicles worldwide from January through March, almost 9% below the 423,000 it sold in the same quarter of last year. It was the first year-over-year quarterly sales decline in nearly four years. Sales also fell short of even the most bearish

US home insurance rates will hit a record high this year, according to grim new forecasts. The typical annual premium will rise to $2,522 by the end of 2024, according to insurance comparison platform Insurify - up 6 percent on a year before. This projected increase for 2024 comes on the back of a 20 percent hike over the last two years. This has largely been driven by escalating natural disasters, insurers pulling out of certain areas - which cuts down on competition - and higher fees for home repairs. Soaring costs mean home insurance is becoming increasingly unaffordable for many Americans - with many opting to forego
