LOL: Biden Makes a Bold Prediction About
the 2022 Midterms
Posted By: Hazymac, 3/11/2022 2:19:09 PM
Conventional wisdom is that the 2022 midterms will be a political bloodbath for the Democrats. For starters, historically speaking, the party in power typically loses seats. But on top of that, Biden’s poor approval ratings are dragging down his entire party, and more than 30 House Democrats have announced their retirements. Nevertheless, during the Democratic National Committee’s winter meeting on Thursday, Biden insisted his party could defy history. How? All they’ve got to do is replicate their 2020 enthusiasm. “If we do that, we’re going to keep the House and keep the Senate — and add seats,” he claimed. Good luck with that. I suppose it’s Biden’s job

Misreading Auden

“A great book reads you,” W. H. Auden once wrote, meaning that you grasp the depths of a profound work of literary art the more you deepen your own sense of life. But a great work of art can also interpret the context in which it is interpreted.
Recently there appeared in the New York Times a reading of a poem by Auden, “Musee des Beaux Arts,” one of the most beautiful poems in English. The poem’s text in full reads as follows: "About suffering they were never wrong,
The old Masters: how well they understood
Its human position: how it takes place

Solar Plant Failures
5 replies
Government planning and subsidies will make many nations the world’s green energy powers, create millions of jobs, and supercharge the economy—or so we’ve heard. Results with solar make one wonder about this statement. In recent times a number of large scale solar plants have failed world-wide and these aren’t the first failures of heavily taxpayer funded solar plants.
Dozens of solar focused companies around the globe have disappeared through bankruptcy, insolvency, or just shutting their doors since 2009 when prices of solar panels plunged as competition from China increased. United States
Recently Crescent Dunes Solar Energy plant operators filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. After years of accusations of mismanagement and
A significant winter storm is expected to impact a large portion of eastern U.S. regions over the weekend, bringing a variety of weather threats to those areas that include heavy snowfall and severe thunderstorms.
The National Weather Service (NWS) said in a statement the storm system will produce weather threats over parts of the Ohio/Tennessee Valleys and the interior eastern U.S.—going as far south as Georgia—starting on Friday and continuing through Saturday night.
"Heavy rainfall and severe thunderstorms [are expected] to impact the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic this weekend," the service said in the latest update, noting that the greatest snow accumulation is expected across portions of the Northeast, where totals
The Walt Disney Co.’s CEO Bob Chapek has taken a knee before his LGBTQ employees, issuing a humiliating apology after some of them mutinied over the company’s refusal to condemn Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill, which would forbid the teaching of sexuality and transgender ideology to students in kindergarten through third grade.
In his groveling mea culpa, Chapek said he needed to be a “stronger ally” to the company’s gay and transgender employees. He also falsely referred to the legislation as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill — a smear created by Democrats and dutifully propagated by the news media — claiming it poses a “challenge to basic human rights.”
Fact-checks often strikeout. Sometimes they appear to be downright malicious, as was the case with the PolitiFact fact-check on Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), as I highlighted on Sunday. But then there are those which really don't make any sense. For whatever reason, USA Today's Ana Faguy thought it necessary to fact-check an article from the Babylon Bee, which most people know is a satire site. The claim in question was a social media post from March 7 that "Biden Sells Alaska Back To Russia So We Can Start Drilling For Oil There Again."
Faguy is blaming the Facebook account of "Being Libertarian," which mostly shares political articles and amusing memes.

INDIANTOWN, Fla. -- Detectives are searching inside the Hungryland Preserve in Florida after human remains were found.
The Martin County Crime Scene Detectives searched an area inside the preserve Thursday after the remains were found near a canal filled with alligators on Wednesday.
"She was out here doing her job and she saw what she thought was an alligator in the water, in this body of water to my right, with what looked like to her to be a human arm," said Martin County Sheriff William Snyder. The sheriff said the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission then searched the area and found what the alligator was holding,
I don’t know why I bother arguing with libdolts on Facebook. These are people who struggle to fill their tanks like the rest of us. Meat is so expensive that they are feeding their kids Alpo, yet they won’t say the obvious: Biden did this on purpose. According to Soviet defector Yuri Besmenov, your bolshie sister-in-law can’t help herself. She has been successfully brainwashed and “demoralized.” She won’t accept reality. At best, she’ll post a tinfoil-hat meme in your honor and give herself a big, fat “LOLZ!!”
"Exposure to true information does not matter anymore. A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information.
How Low Can the Teachers’ Unions Sink?
9 replies
Education Minnesota, the NEA branch that runs Minnesota’s public schools, has been making war on the state’s children for the last two years. In 2020 the teachers’ union demanded that the schools be shut down, and in a Democratic administration, what the union demands, it gets. The result, when test results came in at the end of the 2021 school year, was a catastrophic collapse in student performance.
That was bad enough. But, now that the schools are finally back in session, the Minneapolis union still doesn’t want to work. It has gone on strike, shutting down the schools once again. The context for the strike is grim:

Jussie Smollett, who faked a hate crime against himself in Chicago, was sentenced Thursday. Smollett was found guilty back in December, after he conspired with two men to make it seem as if Trump supporters had attacked him and tied a noose around his neck at 2:00 AM, in the middle of a polar vortex.
While he received an initial outpouring of support, including from Vice President Kamala Harris, it quickly became apparent that his story wasn’t adding up. Why was he out after midnight getting a sandwich in sub-zero temperatures? Why didn’t he call the police right away? Why did he leave the noose on until police got there?
Jussie Smollett’s sentencing hearing is still not over. It started at 2:25 p.m. EST, 25 minutes late because Smollett didn’t bother to show up on time. At the time of publishing, it is still dragging on. The defense team is arguing its 83-page post-trial motion demanding a new trial.
Defense attorney Tina Glandian began by arguing that the case was flawed by “flagrant violations” that included the refiling of charges after the original 16 counts were dismissed against Smollett by the Cook County State’s Attorney’s office run by Kim Foxx. Foxx was personally involved with Smollett and had a relationship with one of his family members that indicated a
Chinese and American business records continue to list Hunter Biden as a 10% owner of the Chinese government-linked investment firm BHR Partners as of Tuesday, nearly four months after his lawyer said he had completely divested from the venture.
In November, Chris Clark, a lawyer for Biden, told the New York Times that his client "no longer holds any interest, directly or indirectly, in either BHR or Skaneateles," the LLC wholly owned by Biden that held his 10% ownership stake in the Chinese investment firm.

The year 2022 is shaping up to be a good year for the electoral prospects of the loyal opposition. Two years after losing the presidency — and then watching helplessly as Donald Trump’s petulance poisoned the Republican effort to win in Georgia and keep control of the Senate — the GOP is suddenly poised for a comeback in Congress. Inflation and rising gas prices, frustration with liberal political leaders who clung to COVID-19 restrictions well past their expiration date, and concerns about how the administration is handling the twin threats of Russia and China (to say nothing

Biden Resignation: ‘Not Cognitively

Former White House physician Ronny Jackson, who served in the role under the Obama and Trump administrations, said on Friday that Democrat President Joe Biden needed to immediately resign to spare putting the country through more suffering because Biden is not mentally fit to be president. “Biden doesn’t know what’s going on with Ukraine,” Jackson tweeted. “He doesn’t know what’s going on with ANYTHING! He’s not cognitively capable of leading. He needs to RESIGN before our country suffers any more.” (Tweet)

CNN continues to undergo massive changes coinciding with AT&T’s corporate handoff to new owner Discovery and the ouster of former company president Jeff Zucker. Zucker left, Chris Cuomo left, and sundry employees did the same as disgusting allegations of pedophilia came to light.
Ratings have been in a freefall ever since Brandon was inaugurated and over-the-top, fake news about Donald Trump couldn’t be manufactured for its unthinking viewership anymore. Covid panic porn has likewise lost its luster. So, in a battle for survival, the “news” network’s owners are realizing that simply making up hysteria after hysteria might not be a viable long-term plan.
Former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr said he did not believe Donald Trump would win a 2022 presidential election bid because he's petty and divisive, and that his former boss is not his pick for commander-in-chief. Barr, 71, criticized the former president during an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper on Friday, admitting that he knew Trump was going to lose in 2020 because of his temper. 'He's not my idea of a president,' Barr said. 'I felt he was going to lose the election because he was not controlling himself.

President Joe Biden warned Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday that any attack against NATO could spark World War III.The president spoke about the conflict at a House Democrat retreat in Philadelphia, vowing again to defend “every inch” of NATO territory from Putin and the Russians.
“Granted, if we respond, it is World War III, but we have a sacred obligation,” he said to his fellow Democrats.Biden reminded Putin he had deployed 12,000 American forces to NATO countries on the Eastern front to protect them.But Biden also warned fellow Democrats from urging on military action in Ukraine
The flu shot used during the 2021 to 2022 virus season was a poor match and did little to prevent circulation, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report finds. Researchers found that the vaccine only reduced the number of mild influenza by 16 percent, which they do not consider statistically significant. The flu strain that struck America this year was of the H3N2 strain, one of the more dangerous versions of the virus, and the shot was not tailored to the specific version of the virus that ended up emerging. Experts had warned of a brutal flu season this year for months leading up to it,
President Joe Biden warned lawmakers attending the House Democratic Caucus Issues Conference Friday in Philadelphia that he'll have far less power next year if the Democrats lose Congress.'This off-year election, in my view, may be the most important off-year election in modern history. Because we know what happens, we know the fundamental change that shifts if we lose the House and Senate,' Biden told House Democrats. 'The only thing I'll have then is a veto pen.'Precedent and polling make Republicans look poised to take back control of the House, and possibly the Senate too,
President Joe Biden announced on Friday he will revoke Russia's 'most favored nation' trade status over its invasion of Ukraine, another step in the series of harsh economic sanctions he and U.S. allies have imposed on Moscow.
And he vowed Russian President Vladimir Putin would pay a 'severe price' if he uses chemical weapons in the Ukraine and said U.S. troops would not join the fight as not to provoke World War III.
Biden announced Russia's change in status of a trade partner in lockstep with the fellow G7 nations to make it an even heavier burden on Moscow to carry. The move will also deny Russia the ability to borrow money

Earlier today Steve noted a Wall Street Journal poll that contains good news for Republicans and bad news for Democrats. There is an additional feature of that poll that deserves notice, as highlighted in the Journal’s article about it:
The survey also found Republicans making gains among minority groups. By 9 percentage points, Hispanic voters in the new poll said they would back a Republican candidate for Congress over a Democrat. The two parties had been tied among Hispanic voters in the Journal’s survey in November.
Democratic margins also eroded among Black voters, who favored a Democrat for Congress by 35 percentage points in the new survey, down from 56 points in November.

The co-hosts of ABC's liberal daytime talk show "The View" complained Friday the criticism leveled against Vice President Kamala Harris over her performance while in Europe has been rated in racism and misogyny. (Snip) After a reporter asked a question about Ukrainian refugees, Harris and Duda appeared confused about who would answer the question, leading to Harris laughing while saying, "A friend in need is a friend indeed." Duda then offered to respond first and began speaking. Harris was ripped by critics following the exchange, accusing her of looking to Duda for help answering the question and slamming her for
I won’t lie: I’m a Tucker Carlson fan. He is willing to speak honestly about topics others ignore, sugarcoat, or lie about. Even when I don’t agree with him, I find him worthwhile, and never more so than his Friday night monologue about Biden’s latest, terrifying power grab and how our government is destroying the American economy. It was a tour de force and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Tucker opened with something I’d meant to write about and now don’t need to: Without a single pause, the Biden administration slipped effortlessly from COVID emergency powers
