Japanese Politicians Roast Biden on Immigration
'Failures' After Biden Calls Japan 'Xenophobic'
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/2/2024 5:30:50 PM
President Joe Biden made some very unkind comments about Japan on Wednesday, comparing the nation to Russia and China over what Biden says is economic stagnation due to "xenophobia." As RedState covered earlier on Thursday, Biden said that Japan isn't accepting enough migrants to its country leading to an economic downturn. It's an odd statement to make, given Japan's status as an important ally: “One of the reasons why our economy’s growing is because of you and many others. Why? Because we welcome immigrants,” Biden said at a Washington fundraising event for his 2024 re-election campaign and marking the start of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.

Soon after Joe Biden dropped out of the race, he endorsed Kamala Harris as his successor, and within a day and a half, she reportedly had secured support from enough delegates to win the nomination at the Democrats' upcoming convention. I'm not sure if that really means anything anymore, since Joe Biden had earned the necessary delegates democratically through the primary election process, and he's no longer in the race.
Call me crazy, but I won't believe Harris will be the nominee until she formally accepts the nomination. Why? Because there are whispers that Democrats aren't exactly jazzed about her being the nominee, either,
Kamala Harris is descended from an owner of 120-plus slaves who ran a Jamaican plantation and fought against the abolition of the abhorrent trade, a British historian claimed today.
The Democrat would-be President is of Indian and Afro-Jamaican descent with her late mother, Shyamala Gopalan, born in Madras, now Chennai, while her father, Donald Harris, is from Jamaica.
The Vice-President's father, a Stanford University academic who is 85, was born in Brown's Town on the Caribbean island – named after Hamilton Brown, who is believed to be Kamala's slave-owning great-great-great-great grandfather.
In an article published by the Jamaica Globe in 2019, Kamala's father Professor Harris wrote: 'My roots go back, within my lifetime,
President Joe Biden’s Secret Service chief Kimberly Cheatle failed to answer whether shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks carried the firearm to the rooftop or if it was already there before the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. Cheatle also failed to answer when the last sweep occurred ahead of Trump’s July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
“Director, your agency has a no fail mission, and on Saturday, July 13, your agency spectacularly failed. The failure resulted in the death of Corey Comperatore and serious injury of two other rally attendees,” Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) noted during Monday’s House Oversight Committee at a hearing,
Joe Biden dropped out of the race on Sunday afternoon. Everyone saw his post on X. In a follow-up message on X, Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for the presidential nomination, and Democrat leaders began lining up (with the notable exception of Barack Obama) to endorse her. The controversy over Biden’s dementia and ability to perform the duties of president appears to be over, although the nagging and quite large issue remains of whether he is able to perform the duties of president for the next seven months. And yet almost immediately, questions about the way Biden withdrew began to swirl,

Informed the Cabinet of Biden's Decision
to Quit, Not Joe? 19 replies
Joe Biden’s presidency is over. The old man can’t hack it, announcing earlier this afternoon that he’s exiting the race, endorsing Kamala Harris, his vice president, and finishing the rest of his term in isolation. But where is the president? A tweet of his ‘I quit’ letter was released, which did not sit well with many folks, and then nothing. We’re left to speculate what is going on with Joe Biden, and none of it is good. [Tweets]
Frank Biden came forward to say
Oh, to be a fly on the wall in whatever room the good Doctor Jill is currently pacing.
It actually happened. Joe Biden has succumbed to the pressure campaign from within his own party apparatus and has endorsed Kamala Harris. Assuming the Democrat convention moves forward with her coronation...er, I mean election...expect her campaign to center on three issues: abortion, abortion, and abortion. As of this writing, Biden had won 3904 delegates, whereas 5, 3, and zero had gone to Democratic challengers Jason Palmer, Dean Phillips, and Marianne Williamson, respectively. There were no delegates for Kamala Harris, or for Gretchen Whitmer, Gavin Newsom,
In the hours since Joe Biden conceded defeat in the 2024 election to Donald Trump, there have been a lot of weird things happening. For starters, Kamala Harris is now working to secure support for her presidential bid. Some Democrats, like the Clintons, have endorsed her. Others, like the Obamas, have instead expressed support for some kind of process to select a new ticket.
Manchin 2024?
Perhaps the weirdest thing is that Sen. Joe Manchin (I-W.V.) is now considering reregistering as a Democrat and running for the party’s presidential nomination.
CNN’s Jake Tapper was first to break this development:
Poll: Trump Opens Up 7-Point Lead in Michigan,

Bests Biden in Every Region Including Detroit 1 reply
Former President Donald Trump has the edge on President Joe Biden “in every region” of Michigan, translating to a robust seven-point lead, according to an EPIC-MRA/Detroit Free Press poll.
The survey, mostly conducted after Trump’s near-assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, finds that 49 percent of Michigan voters back the 45th president in his bid to return to the Oval Office. Biden takes 42 percent of the response, while another nine percent are undecided.
Per the Free Press’s Washington correspondent Todd Spangler, Trump is ahead in all corners of the state, including Democrats’ biggest stronghold–the Detroit Metro Area:
Trump led in every region of the state, including in metro Detroit —
Pro-Trump super PAC MAGA Inc. said Sunday that Vice President Kamala Harris “covered up” President Joe Biden’s “mental decline.”
MAGA Inc. wrote on X, formerly Twitter, “Kamala was in on it. She covered up Joe’s obvious mental decline. Kamala knew Joe couldn’t do the job, so she did it. Look what she got done: a border invasion, runaway inflation, the American Dream dead.”
The group also shared a video clip of Harris saying, “Our president is in good shape, good health, tireless, vibrant, and I have no doubt about the work that we have done.”
A narrator for the video said, “They know Kamala owns this failed record.”
A Tennessee woman says a massive sign supporting President Joe Biden has hurt her business.
“I had so many people commenting saying, ‘I’ll never step foot in that business,’” said Angie Monahan, who owns and operates Honey Blossom Boutique in Lenoir City, according to a Tuesday report by WVLT-TV in Knoxville.
“This is how I make my livelihood. This is how my manager makes her livelihood, and I’ve spent seven years building this business. I can’t let one sign tear it apart,” she said.
Monahan leases space from the building’s owner, who put up the sign and has so far not spoken to the media about it. Monahan, however, has plenty to say.
In an extraordinary moment, a heartfelt prayer was offered by an air traffic controller for former President Donald Trump’s plane, Trump Force One, as it departed Milwaukee early Friday morning.
This rare event occurred after Trump and former First Lady Melania concluded their presence at the Republican National Convention and Trump’s recent assassination attempt last week.
Former President Donald Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump left Milwaukee at approximately 12:30 a.m. on Friday.
They boarded Trump Force One, the nickname given to the Trump Organization’s Boeing 757, drawing a parallel to the official U.S. presidential aircraft, Air Force One.
As the aircraft prepared for takeoff, an unusual event unfolded.

Well, that happened.
After weeks of speculation and conflicting reports, President Joe Biden walked away from his reelection campaign Sunday, and soon afterward, he endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as his successor.
But does that mean she’s automatically the Democrat presidential nominee, and it’s now a Trump-Harris contest? No. It’s not going to be that easy. In fact, things could get quite complicated as we enter unprecedented territory.
Our sister site PJ Media breaks down some of the issues going forward:
There are significant legal hurdles complicating Biden’s potential withdrawal. For example, in Wisconsin, a candidate cannot remove his name from the ballot except in the event of his death....

Kamala Harris a 'DEI hire' to using the n-word 37 replies
A Florida Congressman has slammed his Tennessee Republican counterpart for calling Kamala Harris a 'DEI hire' - saying he might as well have used the N-word.
Maxwell Frost, 27, erupted in fury after Representative Tim Burchett insisting on CNN that the vice president was not the Democratic candidate based on merit.
'They want to call her a DEI president, or a DEI candidate. She has more experience than Trump and J.D. Vance combined, times a million, right?' he told CNN's Jim Acosta Tuesday.
Zacarias Moussaoui was convicted and is serving a life sentence in the federal SuperMax facility in Colorado for being part of the 9/11 airliner hijacking operation that killed more than 3,000 citizens and destroyed the World Trade Center towers in New York.
You can read his indictment here.
A quick recap of his part in the terrorist mayhem from the Associated Press:
Zacarias Moussaoui remains the only person ever convicted in a U.S. court in connection with the Sept. 11 attacks….
Moussaoui was arrested in August 2001, before the attacks, when his efforts to obtain advanced flight training drew suspicion. He was charged [that] December as being a member of the al-Qaida conspiracy
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) announced she is planning to boycott “war criminal” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech before Congress on Wednesday.
In a post on X, Ocasio-Cortez described Netanyahu being invited to speak before a joint meeting of House and Senate members as being “a dark day” in the history of the United States. Netanyahu landed in the United States Monday evening ahead of his speech on Wednesday.“It is a dark day in US history when an authoritarian with warrant requests from the International Criminal Court is allowed to address a joint session of Congress,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote. “40k Palestinians are dead. Hostages aren’t home. Netanyahu is a war criminal.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MN) mounted a silent protest during Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to Congress on Wednesday, holding up signs that said “Guilty of Genocide” and “War Criminal” during his address. As Breitbart News noted:
Netanyahu, who was received with a standing ovation, began his address by acknowledging the Israeli hostages and their families, and by honoring Israeli soldiers in the gallery, — including Ethiopian and Muslim soldiers, and soldiers who, though wounded, returned to the fight.
Immediately in the wake of the announcement at the Republican National Convention that JD Vance is Donald Trump’s pick for running mate, the leftist media predictably launched a fear-mongering campaign to demonize the young populist. The politics of personal destruction – it’s their go-to strategy, rather than addressing the issues. And one of the first scary red flags they warned about is the influence on the future Vice President of Lord of the Rings author JRR Tolkien.
On Tuesday, MSNBC mainstay propagandist Rachel Maddow suggested that Vance and “his mentor,” venture capitalist Peter Thiel, were both inspired by “alt-right” and “Aryan” messaging in Tolkien’s vastly popular fantasy epic.
Air Force One was flying so fast that I was shaking in my seat.
Less than 30 minutes ago, my colleagues in the White House press corps and I had received word – just before the rest of the world – that President Biden had been diagnosed with COVID.
Now we were joining him on a mad rush back from Las Vegas to the Bidens' Rehoboth Beach getaway in Delaware.Moments after fastening my seatbelt, the massive engines of the presidential Boeing 747 roared to life.
The flight attendants, in their custom blue uniforms, stumbled in the aisles as the jet's nose pointed skyward.

President Joe Biden cast the contest between former president Donald Trump and presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris in existential terms in his Oval Office address Wednesday night, telling voters that the survival of the republic would be in their hands come November.
Biden, 81, spoke for eleven minutes from about what he believes to be a fight for American democracy and his choice to “pass the torch” for the sake of national unity.
“In recent weeks it’s become clear to me, that I need to unite my party in this critical endeavor.
Whistleblowers have told Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley that a law enforcement officer who was assigned to monitor the roof of a building that would-be former President Trump assassin Thomas Crooks fired from on July 13 left their post because it was "too hot."
Crooks, 20, fired multiple rounds from the roof of American Glass Research (AGR) Building 6, which was outside the rally perimeter but had a direct line of sight to where the former president was standing on stage at his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
[snip] Hawley said. "And what this whistleblower tells my office is that there was at least one law enforcement person assigned to the roof
If you're looking for input on which presidential candidate to choose, there are a lot of things to consider: Which of two people is most able to win an election and which is better suited to serve as Commander-in-Chief of our armed forces, chief executive of the United States, and leader of the free world. So, who would you ask? Why, you'd ask someone who has failed in seeking that job, not once, but twice! And few people can make that claim, but one of them, Her Imperial Majesty Hillary I, First of That Name, Dowager-Empress of Chappaqua, has weighed in on this very topic
GOP Rep. William Timmons of South Carolina pressed Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle on Monday on reports that the Pittsburgh Secret Service field office sent four times the number of additional agents to cover a first lady Jill Biden event than to former President Donald Trump’s July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where he was shot.
Cheatle neither confirmed nor denied that was the case.
Biden was speaking at an event at Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh for approximately 300 people close to the same time Trump was speaking at his rally attended by several thousand, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune.
President Joe Biden mumbled his way through his reasons for exiting the 2024 campaign while making the argument he could serve another four years if he chose.
He said he chose to 'pass the torch' to Vice President Kamala Harris because he believed it would unit the country and save democracy.
'I believe my record as president, my leadership in the world, my vision for America's future all merited a second term,' he said in a primetime address from the Oval Office.
Earlier on Wednesday, as Guy and our sister sites of Twitchy and Red State covered, Eugene Daniels, the president of the White House Correspondents Association, went after Fox News' Brian Kilmeade, claiming that the "Fox & Friends" host spoke about how Vice President Kamala Harris was going to speak at a "colored sorority." He actually said "college sorority." The audio reveals that Kilmeade said "college." Co-host Lawrence Jones also indicated he said that, as did Fox News, which Daniels acnowledged after he posted the clip claiming Kilmeade said "colored." That didn't stop DNC Chairman Jaime Harrison from going after Kilmeade and Jones in a ranting post over X.
