Biden Plunges Even Further in Nate Silver’s
Election Forecast: ‘Not Great News for
the President’

President Joe Biden plunged even further in Nate Silver’s Silver Bulletin presidential election forecast on Monday in the wake of his disastrous debate performance last week. “[We’ve] got a string of polls in late this afternoon, they’re mostly poor for Joe Biden, and they’re beginning to have a bigger impact on the model,” wrote Silver in Monday’s forecast. “Trump now leads by 2.7 points in our national average. And Biden’s win probability has dropped to 28 percent from 35 percent on debate night.” He continued, “Our guess is that more likely than not, there’s some further decline ahead: the model is trying to figure out whether this is random noise, but instead

Remember. the many Pukes in the Main Street Media will start saying they're Uncle Joe's "gaffes". Don't believe your "lying" eyes in what you see. There will always be "gaffes". Heck, he may say a "gaffe" tomorrow.

The dems will finally admit that FJB is a mess. They have no choice. They will admit that they saw this coming but they will still support FJB because even a vegetable is better for America than Trump. They played the game to save America. They did it for us. Because Trump will blow up the world. So vote for the fool on the hill or for the man who will push the nuclear button on the football. No matter how bad the numbers play out it will be FJB or in this case it is really Mrs. FJB. Without a teleprompter FJB cannot even begin to speak in a full sentence. He is simply reading what someone else wrote. Not comprehending what it is, no recall, no independent thought involved.

Here Nate, let me simplify it for you: pretty much no one will vote for Biden. Yeah, a few woke brain dead democrats but if the hundreds of thousands who show up for anything where Trump will be is any estimate, everyone is voting Trump.

Army's Elite Delta Force Troopers: Assassination

On Monday, the Supreme Court released a benchmark decision on presidential immunity, and it has resulted in enough hot air being shed to melt the polar ice caps. Most of the hysterical claims made about this decision are about as fact-based as the phlogiston theory, and some of the most ridiculous claims are the assertions that presidents now have the power to order assassinations of their political opponents. This is, of course, poppycock, which hasn't prevented even a Supreme Court Justice from doubling down on stupid. The people who would be called upon to carry out any such order, though, have a different take on the whole thing

WASHINGTON – A sweeping section of registered voters do not believe President Joe Biden has the mental and cognitive health to serve a second term as president after his unsteady debate performance last week, according to a new poll. The CBS/You Gov national survey conducted in the days after the debate found that 72% of voters do not believe Biden has the mental or cognitive health to serve as president, as well as nearly half of his own party. That’s up seven points from the beginning of June. Forty-nine percent of voters said they believe former President Donald Trump does not have the mental or cognitive ability

The Biden administration confirmed on Tuesday that Hunter Biden gave his father speech prep ahead of his brief primetime address last night, as multiple outlets report the first son’s controversial presence at high-stakes White House meetings. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said at a press briefing on Tuesday that Hunter Biden was in a speech prep meeting because Joe Biden’s family is around for the holiday weekend, downplaying the significance of Hunter’s presence. “Look, the president as you know is very close to his family, this is a holiday week, Fourth of July. He spent time with his family,” Jean-Pierre said in response to a question from NBC News’s Kelly O’Donnell.

Northwestern Law School made faculty job offers to only three white men in the last three years, passing over intellectual giants in favor of less qualified black females, including one who graduated “near the bottom of her class” and another who plagiarized when writing an exam, according to a blistering lawsuit filed on Tuesday. Charging that “[f]aculty hiring at American universities is a cesspool of corruption and lawlessness,” the suit was filed by lawyers including Jonathan Mitchell, who was involved in the 2023 Supreme Court case on Harvard University admissions that blocked affirmative action, and signals that similar lawsuits could be in store against colleges across the country.

You have to give Nancy Pelosi credit for one thing: She is consistent. She backs the Side, no matter what; not even a president in the throes of dementia can put her off her ferocious support of any Democrat at any time, no matter how ridiculous that Democrat may be. But even Nancy Pelosi, it seems, has a limit. On Tuesday, while speaking to MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell, Mrs. Pelosi admitted that it was - only just now - fair to ask if President Biden's horrible debate performance last week was due to a condition or if he was just "having an episode." Neither is comforting. Pelosi joined MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell

Does Joe Biden have dementia? That's a question that terrifies the White House, and Politico offers some fresh evidence that the president's health isn't what it's claimed to be. For years, there's been an insistence that Biden, despite his very public bouts of senility, is an absolute workhorse behind closed doors. White House coffee boy Andrew Bates recently reinforced that narrative, claiming that the president has such high stamina that it leaves his staffers unable to keep up. The problem with that claim is that it's such obvious nonsense. Biden is clearly sundowning, and if this quote from Politico is true, it sure seems like the cause is dementia.

Over the course of his presidency, Joe Biden’s small clutch of advisers have built an increasingly protective circle around him, limiting his exposure to the media and outside advice — an effort to manage public perceptions of the oldest person to ever hold the office and tightly control his political operation. But inside the White House, Biden’s growing limitations were becoming apparent long before his meltdown in last week’s debate, with the senior team’s management of the president growing more strictly controlled as his term has gone on. During meetings with aides who are putting together formal briefings they’ll deliver to Biden, some senior officials
Judge delays Trump’s hush money sentencing

immunity ruling

Former President Donald Trump’s sentencing in his hush money case has been postponed until at least September after the judge agreed Tuesday to weigh the possible impact of a new Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity. Trump had been scheduled to face sentencing July 11 on his New York conviction on felony charges of falsifying business records. He denies any wrongdoing. The postponement sets the sentencing for Sept. 18 at the earliest — if it happens at all, since Trump’s lawyers are arguing that the Supreme Court ruling merits not only delaying the sentencing but tossing out his conviction.
Joe Biden Mocked for Orange Appearance

Mockery erupted online Monday night after President Joe Biden delivered a primetime address in which his skin appeared orange from a possible spray tan. The tan likely would have been applied in response to criticism of his poor performance at Thursday’s debate, which sparked concerns about his age and cognitive ability. The president delivered a five-minute speech off a teleprompter in response to the Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity on Monday and refused questions from the press as he left the podium. Commentators interpreted the remarks as little more than performative theater to alleviate concerns about his abilities; his orange appearance, which echoes former President Donald Trump, spurred the most mockery.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s (D) office said Tuesday it won’t oppose delaying former President Trump’s July 11 sentencing even as they disagree with his new attempt to set aside his hush money verdict on immunity grounds. Following the Supreme Court’s decision carving out criminal immunity for former presidents, Trump on Monday sent a letter to his judge insisting prosecutors at the trial introduced evidence that is precluded under the Supreme Court’s test. “Although we believe defendant’s arguments to be without merit, we do not oppose his request for leave to file and his putative request to adjourn sentencing

Of course everyone knew. Joe Biden has exhibited cognitive dysfunction in public throughout his presidency, perhaps most especially over the last year. Americans could see that for themselves simply by watching Biden, and perhaps more tellingly, how those around Biden treated him while in public -- like a lost child. But that's especially true of the corrupt media that chose to cover for Biden rather than report on him. That includes Carl Bernstein, the journalistic eminence grise of Watergate, who appeared on CNN last night to discuss the scope and breadth of the cover-up. Bernstein talks about the willful gaslighting of the team around Biden and the media's amplification of gaslighting

On Monday morning, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a 6-3 decision of Trump v. United States that the office of the United States presidency has immunity from criminal prosecution. Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote the dissent, which Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson also signed onto. It's a dissent that has plenty of people talking over social media, with a common theme of the reaction being "bats**t" to describe her ranting and raving. "With fear for our democracy, I dissent," she wrote in what sounds like a line the Biden reelection will almost certainly take advantage of. She also began her dissent in part by writing

The Biden family are apparently questioning whether several top campaign aides should be fired after last week’s disastrous debate debacle — as some allies accused President Biden’s preparation team of “political malpractice.” Talk of axing the staffers unfolded in private as President Biden and his family hunkered down at Camp David over the weekend to discuss options amid mounting calls for the 81-year-old to give up his re-election campaign, sources told CNN. During the discussions, some members of the first family trashed the senior aides and called for them to be put on the chopping block —

Trump faces charges in Washington, D.C., brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith relating to his conduct on January 6, 2021, when rioters stormed the Capitol. He argued that he is immune from prosecution for his official acts.As Breitbart News reported, the Court found that presidents have absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts, but not from unofficial acts, and remanded the case back to the trial court to determine the difference.

Voters removed Sens.
