Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Stands Behind
Joe Biden: ‘The Matter Is Closed’
Posted By: Dreadnought, 7/8/2024 8:52:13 PM
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), the far-left “Squad” leader in Congress, announced her support for President Joe Biden on Monday despite calls within his own party to step down following his disastrous debate against former President Donald Trump. The congresswoman shared her position in a statement in which she called the matter “closed” due to the president’s insistence to stay in the race: I have spoken to the President over the weekend. I have spoken with him extensively. He made clear then and he has made clear since that he is in this race. The matter is closed. He had reiterated that this morning, he has reiterated

Elon Musk is the CEO of SpaceX, one of the largest private space telecommunication companies. SpaceX has been launching several advanced rockets and spacecraft. Time and again the environmental hazards of these launches have also been pointed out by people. This time, when a news piece stated that his latest launch had destroyed nine bird nests, Musk was quick to respond.
An article in the New York Times talks about how SpaceX's latest launch severely impacted the environment with the destruction of bird nests. The story was shared on X by a user, which Musk reposted and wrote that to make up for this heinous crime,
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Wednesday morning did not provide a direct answer when she was asked if she wanted President Joe Biden to continue his campaign for president.
The California Democrat was pressed on the issue on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” and said she and other Democrats would support whatever Biden chooses to do.
“It’s up to the president to decide if he is going to run,” Pelosi said. “We’re all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short,” she added.
Pelosi said Biden has the “overwhelming support of the caucus,” although
How many times have you heard people say that Donald Trump can be his own worst enemy? How many times have you thought that he could do so much more good if he didn’t get in his own way?
Or, as Ben Domenech puts it at Spectator World, “The attitude is ubiquitous among some portions of the president’s base: they just think he’d be better off if he could focus and not give Democrats so much material. But because this hypothetical has never emerged, we never really got to find out if it was true — until now.”
For the last few weeks, we’ve largely seen that wish come true.
Two weeks. We've had two weeks since Joe Biden's disastrous debate performance. Normally, a debate sustains a news cycle for a few days. But Biden's performance was so bad, his obvious mental decline so apparent, that the media just can't let it go.
To be fair, we on the right have not let it go since his basement campaign in 2020. But the media has suddenly had their eyes opened and the veil lifted. They see now what they were too un-curious to see before: Biden is a man in decline.
The problem for the Democrats is that, when it comes to seeking another candidate, time is up. The ideal time
Two Democratic senators are asking Attorney General Merrick Garland to appoint a special counsel to investigate Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for possible tax law violations.
Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) sent the letter to Garland last week asking him to appoint a special counsel “to investigate possible violations of federal ethics and tax laws.” The two lawmakers pointed to public reporting over the last year which found Thomas failed to disclose multiple luxury trips and gifts from billionaire friends.
On Tuesday, ABC Good Morning America co-anchor George Stephanopoulos interviewed Democratic Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer about her recently released book, True Gretch. Unsurprisingly, Stephanopoulos focused more on politics and her personal life rather than the book itself. Stephanopoulos mentioned that Whitmer’s new book calls for people to “look for the good in any person or situation.” He then asked her, “Where is the good?” since Democrats have been “feeling pretty stressed the last several days.” Whitmer’s answer was the following: I wanted to make sure people see some of the lessons that I've used it to get through these last six years and so I
By the time we saw Joe Biden’s debate debacle, the media had spent four years covering up his mental and physical decline to help Democrats. After Biden’s fragile mental state was exposed, the media instantaneously began pushing Biden out of the presidential race to help Democrats.
The goal remains the same.
The Wall Street Journal reports this week that Biden’s senior advisers “aggressively stage-managed” the president’s “schedule, movements and personal interactions, as they sought to minimize signs of how age has taken a toll on the oldest president in U.S. history.” Basically, everyone in the White House — as well as big-money donors — conspired to hide that the president
George Stephanopoulos backed away Tuesday evening from an errant quip he made to a passerby in New York City in which he said that he didn’t think President Joe Biden would be able to serve another term in office.
“I don’t think he can serve four more years,” Stephanopoulos said in the leaked video.
The exchange was captured by TMZ, and the person lobbing a query about Biden’s fortitude appeared to be working for the outlet. The person approached Stephanopoulos as he was walking, in workout clothes, on the streets of New York City.
“Earlier today I responded to a question from a passerby. I shouldn’t have,” Stephanopoulos said in a statement
Too many people have all kinds of weird things pop into their heads when you mention the word "wealth." So when an article appears that mentions (almost certainly correctly) that Baby Boomers are at the moment the wealthiest generation and reveals how they are apparently flocking to a town in Texas with wheelbarrows full of cash (almost certainly an exaggeration), it's easy to spot some of those misconceptions.
Georgetown, Texas, is the place to be, at least if you're of a certain age. Thanks to a surge in baby boomers moving into the city just 40 miles north of Austin, it's the fastest-growing city in America.
Former U.S. Senator James Inhofe, an outspoken conservative and the longest-serving Senator in Oklahoma history, has died at 89.
Inhofe represented Oklahoma in the U.S. Senate for 36 years following his election in 1994, including as chairman of the Senate Armed Services and Senate Environment Committees. Before his time in the upper chamber, Inhofe served as mayor of Tulsa, a legislator in both chambers of the Oklahoma statehouse, and a representative in the U.S. House.
The Pennsylvania State Capitol in Harrisburg was evacuated Saturday after every member of the state’s legislature received an email threatening anti-Israel bombings in the complex.
“In the name of Palestine, I have hidden highly lethal lead azide devices in and around Pennsylvania State Capitol as well as the Pennsylvania Judicial Center,” the suspect, going by the alias of “glorytoourmartyrs,” wrote. “I plan on triggering one device every few hours until Joe Biden goes on national television and publicly denounces the illegitimate state of Israel. Keep in mind I am inside one of the 2 buildings armed w/ a knife, and plan on remaining here to my dying breath!”

Medical School claims 64 replies
Duke Medical School claims it is “white supremacy culture” to expect people of color to be on time in a strategic plan for creating an “anti-racist workforce.”
The medical school said its goal is to “catalyze anti-racist practice through education” in a 2021 plan titled “Dismantling Racism and Advancing Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the School of Medicine.” The guide — praised by the school’s dean — called out what it deemed “white supremacy culture,” with its purported nitpicking about being on time, dress code, speech and work style. It also contains a series of negative terminology vis-à-vis white culture.
The Democrats’ recent panic over President Joe Biden’s apparent mental infirmities underscores the importance of the vice presidential pick. In the case of former President Donald Trump, who will only be able to serve one term if re-elected, the choice is just as important if not more so. A handful of favorites has emerged, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
In the past two months, the I&I/TIPP Poll has queried voters about a long list of 22 possible choices for Trump.
However, in recent days, that list has shrunk markedly. Trump campaign insiders, Republican Party officials and those close to Trump
In 2022, the Washington Examiner's Becket Adams reported that the Marine Corps Band was instructed to compose an entrance theme for First Lady Jill Biden. The song, Fanfare for the First Lady, was intended to be a counterpoint to the president's Hail to the Chief. But of course, the president is the elected commander in chief, and the First Lady is more of an honorary post.
Many of those in the Marine Corps Band said they'd never been asked to do an exclusive First Lady entrance theme before. "Someone in the White House apparently 'had the bright idea, ‘Oh, tell the band that we want music for Jill,'' a source said.
Did you have this on your 2024 Bingo card? I sure didn't. A Democrat neurologist who treats Parkison's patients went on NBC News — NBC NEWS!! — to talk about Joe Biden's condition — and it was very, very bad for the president.
Dr. Tom Pitts works with Parkinson's patients in a clinical setting in Dayton, Ohio. His specialty is listed as Neurology Clinical Interpretation, and although he has never met Biden, he said he could diagnose him with Parkinson's disease "from across the mall" — it's that obvious.
"Oh, yeah, I see [patients like Biden] 20 times a day in the clinic. I mean, it's ironic because
MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell has called for allowing Joe Biden to have aides with him on stage to speak for him and help him sound coherent.
Yes, really. This is where we are now.
O’Donnell said that it would be good to “Allow the candidates to have as many staff as they want, join them on the stage throughout the debate, and make sure that all of them have microphones.”
He added that “the candidates should be allowed to turn to their staff and confer with them about anything at any time in the debate.”
“And we should be able to hear everything they say. So we can hear if the candidate has competent
Lifelong Democrat George Clooney has turned on President Joe Biden and demanded he step aside from the 2024 race after his disastrous debate and widespread concerns about whether he can serve four more years.
The Hollywood megastar, who has hosted fundraisers for the 81-year-old, said Biden can't win the 'battle against time' in a scathing op-ed for the New York Times on Wednesday morning.
The actor also condemned Democratic party leaders for ignoring 'every warning sign' of Biden's declining physical and mental health and for trying to defend his car-crash performance against Donald Trump.

has examined Biden – but says only for
his annual physicals 29 replies
The White House admitted Monday that a Parkinson’s expert who’s visited the executive mansion eight times in as many months has evaluated President Biden — but said the exams only took place during the president’s annual physicals.
The revelation was disclosed in a letter from Biden’s personal physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor hours after White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to explain the flurry of recent visits from the Parkinson’s specialist, Dr. Kevin Cannard.
“Dr. Cannard was the neurological specialist that examined President Biden for each of his annual physicals,” O’Connor wrote in the letter.

SAN DIEGO — Interest rates on retail credit cards are on the rise, and the numbers may surprise you. Macy’s just sent letters to its card users announcing the interest rate on their Macy's card is jumping to 34.49%. Industry experts told CBS 8 the increase is part of a nationwide trend. “I mean, I follow this so closely that I'm not shocked, but on the face of it, yeah, that's a really high interest rate," said Ted Rossman, a senior industry analyst at Bankrate. Rossman says retail stores already have the highest APRs, and those rates have been climbing
White House reporters on Tuesday continued to pepper Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre with questions about Biden’s cognitive decline.
Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked KJP who the Pentagon contacts if they detect an incoming nuke late at night past Joe Biden’s “8 pm window.”
According to The New York Times, Biden recently told Democrat governors that his ‘health is fine,’ “it’s just my brain.”
Biden is also reported to have told the governors that he needs to get more sleep, work fewer hours and not do events after 8 p.m.
Peter Doocy asked Karine Jean-Pierre about Biden’s early bedtime and the ‘3 am phone call.’
“Well, [Biden] also said he’s the sharpest before 8 pm,
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has a new plan to ensure Donald Trump spends the rest of his days in prison. Amid the battle over Joe Biden's senility among Democrats, Schumer moved to a different topic, pledging to legislatively declare Trump's actions surrounding January 6th as "unofficial."
That comes after the Supreme Court delivered a mixed opinion on the matter in late June, stating that "official" acts are indeed subject to presidential immunity while "unofficial" acts are not. That set up a long legal battle whereby the special counsel prosecuting Trump must litigate each action to determine what category they fall under.
Naturally, Democrats were not pleased
Mayor Eric Adams’s administration has reportedly injected another $2.6 million of the city’s budget into a controversial program that distributes pre-paid debit cards to illegal immigrants.
According to the Office of the NY State Comptroller (OSC), by May 31, 2024, the city reported spending $1.47 billion in Fiscal Year 2023 and $2.72 billion in Fiscal Year 2024 on expenses related to “asylum seekers.”
This latest cash infusion brings the total expenditure on this initiative to an eye-watering $2 billion, according to the New York Post.
