Here we go. Pete Buttigieg 2024?

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 12/15/2022 1:37:30 PM

Just how desperate are the Democrats in terms of their weak bench of candidates to replace Joe Biden? Well, they’re desperate enough to actually be talking about Pete Bugttigieg as a potential 2024 nominee and corporate media is fluffing up the theory. Politico featured a “West Wing playbook” article yesterday describing the Transportation Secretary’s “campaign in waiting.” In it, they describe how various dark money groups are keeping a stream of donations coming in with the theme, “Win the Era.” This funding infrastructure has allegedly allowed Mayor Pete to “maintain a political footprint” and keep his options open while not broadcasting his loftier ambitions.

Pete Buttbuddy epitomizes the worst character flaws of his generation regardless of sexuality. He's lazy, stupid, and dangerous.

Anyone but K. Harris is a Democrat winner. This is because election cheating has progressed to a point where Jesus Christ (R-Heaven) probably could not win.

If Pete Buttigieg is elected president, someone's sure to make a tv sitcom called "The Bootyjudges" so I had to write a theme song for the series and it goes like this (sung to a possibly recognizable tune): Petey, Bootyjudgy HMFIC at DOT Petey, married Sweety They’re a very fairy family Petey, soon will be our president Which means, we taxpayers pay the rent With the Bootyjudgys We’ll have sodom-me and -you time A gay taboo time We’ll have a gay old time

Would he actually find time to do any work ever?? He is the dumbest piece of garbage that I have ever heard or seen. I say he should retire permanently just doing diapers. We have had a community punk, now a dementia ridden halfwit, I believe we have had enough garbage. It's time for a person willing to work hard, have half a brain and who won't make an ass of him/herself by dishing word salads, never understanding anything because they did not have the background, or the energy to study up. Wouldn't it be nice to have a person in the Oval, who can sit and speak in that place because a teleprompter is not needed, and the person knows what he/she is talking about????

I never cared much about Donald Trump’s tax returns. Why should I? Why should anybody? So I pretty much ignored all the hoopla surrounding the release when they were dumped out into the public. Of all the presidents we have had in the past few decades, Trump was the one least likely to use his office to get rich. He is already rich. So rich that he donated his salary every year that he was president. All the ridiculous talk of emoluments, schemes to use the office to enrich himself seemed beside the point. Trump loves himself some money and will do ridiculous things to make it, but even if he

The WHO doesn’t mess around. At least when it comes to spreading propaganda. I will assume for the sake of civility that the WHO genuinely believes that the COVID vaccine is safe and effective. I will even assume that for most people the vaccine is safe, and at least somewhat effective in reducing the likelihood of severe disease in people likely to become deadly ill from COVID, such as the very old and very sick. But I will not concede that critics of the vaccine are spreading misinformation nor stoking unreasonable fears.

As RedState previously reported, a new book is dishing on Joe Biden’s first year in the White House, and there are some interesting stories being told. According to author Chris Whipple, the president has a penchant for losing his cool and dropping four-letter words in relation to the border crisis, a situation that is more relevant now than ever. For context, October saw a new record of illegal crossings, and 22 days into December as of this writing, the administration hasn’t even bothered to release November’s numbers. I think we can all ascertain what that means. Here’s how Whipple described Biden’s lack of composure via sources inside the White House.
Biden is killing El Paso 11 replies
Posted by Dreadnought 12/22/2022 10:13:57 PM Post Reply
Joe Biden is killing El Paso, TX with his policies. It has gotten so bad that after years of downplaying the crisis even the MSM is starting to cover the crisis. This began, of course, just after the 2022 Midterm elections wrapped up. There was a cone of silence over the problem–polling indicated that Americans were very concerned about immigration. But once the votes had been cast and the Democrats for the most part saved the media clearly felt more comfortable covering the facts. And the facts are indeed bad. Thousands of migrants are illegally crossing the Rio Grande in the region, and it makes good sense for them to do so.

After more than a year and a half of investigation, the January 6 committee released its full report Thursday, finding that former president Donald Trump and his allies are guilty of offenses against the United States for their roles in inciting the Capitol riot and seeking to disrupt the orderly transition of power. Among the crimes the panel contends Trump committed are obstruction of an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud the U.S., making a false statement, and inciting an insurrection, the last of which could disqualify Trump from holding public office in the future. Trump recently announced his third presidential bid. The Justice Department must now assess

Here’s one part of the nearly $2 trillion American Rescue Plan passed last year that few people apparently read. The bill included more than half a million dollars in grants for tech researchers to develop artificial intelligence algorithms capable of identifying and suppressing “microaggressions” in social media posts. Part of the money was quietly gifted to researchers at the University of Washington earlier this year and they expect to receive the rest of it in coming years as the development work proceeds. You may find yourself wondering how the federal government wound up handing out taxpayer money to develop ways to automatically censor the free speech of its citizens.

The Senate on Thursday approved a $1.7 trillion spending bill with help from more than a dozen Republican lawmakers, after a fight over immigration policy nearly derailed the legislation. In an 68-29 vote, the Senate passed a bill that provides $858 billion for defense, $787 billion for non-defense domestic programs and nearly $45 billion for military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine. The more than 4,000-page bill funds the government for the rest of the fiscal year, and includes more than 7,200 earmarks totaling more than $15 billion. Senate passage sends the bill to the House, where Speaker Nancy Pelosi is expected to hold a vote as early as Thursday evening

The lobbying arm of Silicon Valley’s tech investors, represented by billionaire Mark Zuckerberg’s FWD.us, admits it is “extremely unlikely” that an amnesty for millions of illegal aliens can pass the lame-duck Congress. For weeks, Sens. Thom Tillis (R-NC) and Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) have floated a plan that would give amnesty to at least two million illegal aliens enrolled and eligible for former President Barack Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program while also opening the labor market to more foreign competition. The plan sought to trade illegal and legal immigration expansion provisions for big pay raises for the nation’s Border Patrol agents

During his address, Zelensky thanked Congress for its continuing support for Ukraine, while members of Congress gave him repeated standing ovations. At the end of his address, Zelensky unveiled a Ukrainian flag signed by Ukrainian troops in Bahkmut,

Clad in his trademark dark green sweatshirt and cargo pants, Zelensky urged Congress to continue to provide the overwhelming military and financial aid that began to flow when Russia invaded and has continued unabated since, arguing that Russian aggression would further destabilize the U.S.-led international order if left unchecked.

“Entrenched systemic racism” is a significant risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease and dementia in non-white Americans, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) claimed in its 2022 update on how to fight the disease. The HHS’ “National Plan to Address Alzheimer’s Disease” said black, Hispanic and low-income populations are more likely to face health-related risk factors that contribute to Alzheimer’s and said this disparity is due to “structural inequities” that are the result of racism.

While the increased risk was relatively minimal, the result is the opposite of how the vaccines have been sold and mandated by government authorities. The highest risk was for those who received more than three vaccines.(Snip)ABSTRACT: Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a bivalent COVID-19 vaccine protects against COVID-19.

Republican Sen.

Romney noted it would be very difficult to sort out budgets for the current fiscal year and the following fiscal year.

Biden's aides told author Chris Whipple that the situation on the U.S.-Mexico border 'made his blood boil'. Along with vaccine misinformation, it was the problem that most aggravated Biden. Whipple's book, The Fight of His Life: Inside Joe Biden's White House, details how the Biden administration struggled to deal with surging migrant arrivals from Mexico throughout 2021 - and faced mounting criticism.
