Are we to believe anything the government tells us?
We have long known that Democrats are in favor of late-term abortions. But this Biden thing takes it to new limits.
As the vultures circled last month, the Democratic Party devoured one of its own when Joe Biden sent a note to the country saying that he would not be running for re-election.
He did it while he purportedly had COVID, which was weird. Didn’t he tell us forcefully in a CNN town hall, “You’re not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations…?” His wife is a doctor, so many people believed him (and a “very good one,” according to Whoopie Goldberg of The Phew).
COVID is about the only thing that has chosen Biden over Trump in recent years.
It got bad. When photo ops with Joe Biden were done among mixed race workers in a store or restaurant, he had that confused old person stare. He looked like he did not know whether to tip them or call the cops.
Then all these accolades came his way from the Left. “The greatest president,” “a true hero,” “a selfless public servant”… ad nauseam. To be clear, the Dems did not pull Joe Biden off the ticket because he is in cognitive decline. If they cared about that, they would have done it four years ago. They pulled him because America found out about his condition in the debate, and now he cannot win. Do not fall for the Dems’ pretentious pandering.
For those paying attention, the real story is the disillusion Americans have from being lied to by the Democrats and their propagandists in the media.
Let’s just quickly list a few major lies/cover-ups of late: The Russian hoax; COVID rules and shutdowns; smearing people like me who thought COVID came not from bats but a Wuhan lab leak; Charlottesville, Virginia; weird mail-in-ballots changing midnight election totals; the Afghanistan withdrawal; January 6 committee; Impeachments; Lawfare; that the border was “secure;” and the collusion between Democrats and the media to hide Joe Biden’s years-long cognitive decline. And now the latest: the arrogant stonewalling of Congress by the Secret Service on the DEI hiring of the botched Trump protection debacle.
How are we to believe anything the government tells us?
Kamala Harris, who says she worked side-by-side with Biden, hid all this more than anyone. She needs to be held accountable, but she will not be. Joe Biden gave Kamala his “full-throated” endorsement. And you know who else can endorse her full-throatedly? California politician Willie Brown, twice her age at the time and her mentor and paramour. If anyone can speak about her full-throated abilities, it is Wille Brown.
Dems pretend their party is coalescing now around the unpopular Kamala. And maybe they are trying. She has asked the 15 million-odd illegals she let cross the border to work with the Dems to stop murdering, raping and robbing us until after the election.
The new and ongoing lie Democrats tell is that “Trump is a threat to democracy.”
Our government has grown too big, too unaccountable and too stupid to be of service to many of us. The Secret Service sees the Trump assassin with a golf range finder. I can totally see them looking at it just to make sure, since this was an official event, that it was not adjusting for slope. Then they handed it back, very pleased with themselves.
After a grilling by Congress in the only bipartisan thing in four years, the Secret Service director finally resigned. Why did Biden or Harris not fire her? And just what does it take to get fired by Democrats? On a personal note, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) excoriated Director Cheatle. Looking at Ms. Mace, I’d take a good admonishing from her.
Not only did Secret Service head Cheatle have a bad day, the Biden family did, too. The Secret Service had long purportedly helped Hunter avoid the consequences of his actions. And Hunter Biden had to tell three countries about his “no refund” policy. Joe Biden won’t be president and will lose his pardoning power. Then Hooters announced it was closing stores. Imagine how bad a week Hunter Biden had.
For those also worried about Hooters closing stores, they will still do an “eats-type” delivery of their food to your front door. This service will be called Knockers.
