Back in February, we noticed a spate of articles claiming that there was no way that Joe Biden would not be the Democrats’ nominee.
“In the span of two days,” we wrote, “articles started appearing making the exact same argument: That Joe Biden will definitely, no questions asked, be the nominee come November.” (See: “Are Dems Actually ‘Stuck With Biden’? Or Are They Playing A Long Con?” February 14, 2024.)
We noticed that these articles — all written by supposed political pros — made the same argument:
It’s too late for Biden to step aside.
Party elites are all behind Biden.

Kamala’s Marxist Roots

When The Economist tried last week to excuse Kamala Harris’ frequent discharges of incoherent nonsense, it opened a door that Harris and her team probably wish would stay hidden from the wider public.
But there it is.
“Republicans who have mocked Ms. Harris for word-salad speeches will find precedent in her father’s writing,” The Economist said last week, because his is “sprinkled with obscurantist theorizing.”
And who is Harris’ father?
Credit where due, the New York Times published a report on Monday noting that Kamala Harris has a lot of far-left baggage that she will be struggling with now that the Democratic Party has anointed her as its presidential candidate.
Indeed, she does. And there are reams of videos showcasing her extremist views across the board, fracking, defunding police, abortion, amnesty for illegals, socializing medicine.
But then the Times manages to sabotage its own reporting with this line: “video clips of her old statements and interviews are being weaponized as Republicans aim to define her as a left-wing radical
At her rallies, Vice President Kamala Harris has been portraying the November election as a “fight for freedom.” That’s rich coming from someone who spent her entire career attacking freedom – like those enshrined in the Bill of Rights.
In Milwaukee last week, Harris started the crowd chanting “We’re not going back!” After going back and forth with the audience, Harris then says:
“And I’ll tell you why we’re not going back, because ours is a fight for the future. And it is a fight for freedom.”
What are the freedoms she’s talking about? She can only conjure up three.
About That Kamala Harris Ad

Kamala Harris’ first presidential campaign ad focuses on “freedom.” This might be the most absurd political claim in our lifetimes. The Democratic Party is not interested in liberty. It is concerned with nothing more than expanding its power.
When Harris says in her ad “We choose freedom,” what liberties is she referring to? She never says. Because she can’t. She mentions a few examples – the freedom to “get ahead” and to “be safe from gun violence” – and both are meaningless.
The first “freedoms” is part of our American DNA. What has kept people from getting ahead is a federal, state, and local government framework,
Not long after the global temperature, which doesn’t actually exist in any statistically meaningful way, blew through the mark at which we are supposed to start burning, and days after a new paper showed that the global warming narrative is exactly backward, the Biden administration awarded $4.3 billion in climate grants. It’s the work of an incompetent.
As well as that of an ideologue, which is equally as dangerous, since ideologues tend to refuse to listen to reason.
In 2020, when Joe Biden was running for office, he was thoroughly sullied when Barack Obama,
That didn’t take long, did it? Already our friends in the mainstream media and the Democratic Party’s ever-ready spin-doctors are telling American voters that presumed presidential candidate Kamala Harris is not the extremist she’s portrayed to be by the wicked right-wingers. And they’re right. She’s worse.
There’s nary a policy area that Harris has come into contact with, either while in the White House, as a member of the Senate, or in California state government in which she hasn’t taken a position on the far-extreme of the spectrum — whether it’s immigration, medical care and insurance, foreign policy, abortion, whatever.
As Biden Drops His Campaign, Half Of Voters

I&I/TIPP Poll 10 replies
In the wake of President Joe Biden’s not-so-surprising decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race, two big questions still loom: Did the big media intentionally underplay his growing mental and physical issues? And should Biden be allowed to finish out his term? A majority of voters answer with a resounding “yes” to the first, and half say “yes” to the second, according to July’s I&I/TIPP Poll.
The national online I&I/TIPP Poll queried 1,389 registered voters from June 26-28, a period that included Biden’s disastrous debate performance, but just before a chorus of both the media and establishment Democrats began to call for him to resign.
On YouTube, there is a four-minute video that is nothing but Vice President Kamala Harris repeating this empty phrase: “What can be, unburdened by what has been.”
But no matter how many times she utters this idiotic mantra, Harris will, in fact, be heavily burdened by the disaster that has been the Biden administration. Burdened by her own dismal record as vice president. And burdened by the fact that she is so uniquely unqualified to be leader of the free world.
To say Harris is an empty pantsuit is an insult to empty pantsuits.
As we put it in an editorial a year ago:
As expected, Joe Biden has dropped his reelection campaign. In doing so, he endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris, as his replacement as the Democratic Party’s nominee. It might seem impossible, but she would be an even worse president than he was.
Start with the fact that Harris is an unserious person and a classic midwit, defined by the Urban Dictionary as:
Someone who is around average intelligence but is so opinionated and full of themselves that they think they’re some kind of genius. Midwits have a shallow understanding
Now that the Republicans have wrapped up their hugely successful convention and as calls for President Joe Biden to step down are accelerating, the question that must be asked is: Can the Democratic Party survive? Donald Trump made one key decision this week that could seal the party’s fate.
First, some history.
When Ronald Reagan won the Republican Party’s nomination in 1980, Democrats were in a similar bind as they are today. The party was in disarray, the nation fed up with clueless leaders, and voters were ready for the bold conservative leadership Reagan promised.
But Reagan made one fatal mistake.

PARIS — The president of the International Olympic Committee has reaffirmed that two boxers competing in the Olympics are women, and have lived and competed as such for their entire lives. Thomas Bach also criticized the boxing federation which suspended both women, and called online harassment of Algeria’s Imane Khelif and Chinese Taipei’s Lin Yu-ting “totally unacceptable.”
Khelif and Lin are at the center of a controversy that has enveloped these Olympics over the past few days, ever since Italian boxer Angela Carini abandoned her bout against Khelif just 46 seconds into their match.

VILLEPINTE, France — Boxer Imane Khelif of Algeria clinched a medal at the Paris Olympics in an emotional fight Saturday that followed days of sharp scrutiny and online abuse as misconceptions about her gender exploded into a larger clash about identity in sports. Khelif defeated Anna Luca Hamori of Hungary 5:0 in the quarterfinals of the women’s 66-kilogram division. Khelif will win at least a bronze medal after she comfortably earned the second victory of her tumultuous second trip to the Olympics. Khelif faced outcry fueled by claims from the International Boxing Association, which has been banned from the Olympics
Second gentleman Doug Emhoff acknowledged on Saturday that he had an extramarital affair during his first marriage after the Daily Mail published a report alleging that he impregnated a nanny, CNN reported.
Emhoff admitted that he had an affair while married to his first wife, Kerstin, in a statement provided to CNN, though he did not specifically address who his mistress was. The Daily Mail story alleged that Emhoff was sleeping with a teacher at his then-young daughter’s school who also worked for the family as a nanny, and that the relationship allegedly resulted in a pregnancy.
Former President Donald Trump revealed that he had “agreed” to debate Vice President Kamala Harris in a presidential debate in September.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote that he agreed to debate Harris in a debate hosted by Fox News on September 4th. The debate will also be moderated by Fox News’s Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.“I have agreed with FoxNews to debate Kamala Harris on Wednesday, September 4th,” Trump wrote. “The Debate was previously scheduled against Sleepy Joe Biden on ABC, but has been terminated in that Biden will no longer be a participant, and I am in litigation against ABC Network and George Slopadopoulos, thereby
There is a Cheat Machine out there.
It worked in the 2020 general election and it's no doubt gearing up again for another run.
(Snip) What could the Census Bureau tell me about the results of the 2020 presidential election? Well, it told me quite a bit.
It told me that Joseph R. Biden received 81 million votes, and it told me that Donald J. Trump received 74 million votes. Three million people also voted for the Communists, the Greens, or themselves. Well, it told me that at the time of the 2020 election, there were 168 million registered voters.
81+74+3=158
158 is 94% of 168.
Chevron Taking Its Headquarters To Texas

U.S. oil and gas giant Chevron announced Friday it will relocate its corporate headquarters from its long-time location in San Ramon, California to Houston, Texas in the coming months.
In a release, the company said chairman and CEO Mike Wirth and vice-chairman Mark Nelson will relocate to Houston by the end of this year, with remaining headquarters employees to make a gradual migration over the next five years. Employees who support the company’s remaining California operations will remain in San Ramon. Currently, Chevron has 2,000 employees in California, and 7,000 in various Texas locations.
Friday’s announcement seems symbolic of the diminishing presence of both Chevron and the oil industry itself in California.
Harris Blames Bad Economy On — Who Else?

Vice President or Something Kamala Harris has just gotten some bad news in her quest to become the next person to pretend to be president of the United States, if she isn’t doing that already: the Biden regime Labor Department on Friday released a jobs report that shows that job growth is cratering while unemployment is rising. As job growth has been one of the chimerical accomplishments that Old Joe and his henchmen have most often touted as evidence of the “success” of the regime, this was the last thing the woman whom we now all love and admire wanted to hear.
Democratic strategist James Carville said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that Vice President Kamala Harris was “not close” to beating former President Donald Trump in November.
Guest host Michael Steele said, “I want to touch on a little bit of the noise he made earlier this week, which I personally appreciated and wanted to make sure people understood what I thought of what you said, when you caution folks. All the exuberance and all the excitement we are seeing right now in the campaign is good, it’s healthy, it is important, particularly given the campaign for Joe Biden was. Your point is don’t let that exuberance cloud
JD Vance is a Hero

It’s too late for me. I followed the feminist lie through most of my life, only to wake up much too late to have lived it a better way. You see, it takes a while to realize that it really is about the warm body next to you. It is about the laughing children and grandchildren. (Snip)
There will be problems with every family, unforgettable tragedies, broken hearts, and dreams deferred. And there are sometimes mothers who become addicted to drugs.
As I watched The Machine surround JD Vance like a pack of hyenas going in for the kill, I was disgusted on so many levels
Well, ladies and gentlemen: the chips are down — literally and figuratively.
Two years ago, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris touted their “Chips Act” to bring the semiconductor industry back home from Taiwan, China and Singapore.
The price tag on the bill: a cool $280 billion of corporate handouts. It was arguably the largest corporate welfare bill in American history.
Intel, Micron, Global Foundries, Polar Semiconductor, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Samsung, BAE Systems, and Microchip Technology have been the direct beneficiaries of the law.
This was supposed to be one of the “Crown Jewels” of the Biden-Harris admin. A massive job creator that would allow America to take back its technological
leadership.
Donald Trump announced late Friday night that he has accepted an offer from Fox News to debate Kamala Harris in September.
The former president said in a Truth Social post the debate would be held in Pennsylvania on Sept. 4 and hosted by Fox News anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.
Harris has wanted Trump to stick to the scheduled Sept. 10 debate on ABC News which was originally slated to be a showdown between Trump and President Biden.
The ex-president had previously agreed to the ABC News debate. But following Harris’ ascension to Democratic nominee for president after Biden dropped out of the race,
