The Harris-Walz ticket, we’re told, is all about joy. Joy. Joy. Joy. Also, it’s about the benefits Democrats create for children, with a special focus on teachers’ unions and Tim Walz’s creepy (but, to Democrats, admirable) focus on LGBTQ+ youth. However, alert people are noticing that the Democrats’ campaign’s slogans, along with their images and ideas, have an uncanny resemblance to some things coming out of really icky regimes, such as the Nazis, the Soviets, and Chinese communists. I’m not saying that the Democrats are ready to commit genocide or open gulags, but it really is weird how leftists always think alike. What’s been pushed down our gullet since Kamala’s launch

Politics of Joy? Don't forget Hubert Horatio Humphrey (or, as Jimmy Carter called him, "Hubert Horatio Hornblower") and his campaign of joy. Why can't the most prejudiced, ignorant, buttheaded candidates do better than this? Joy? 'Nother lie.

I've got one. It's called the Election Kit. It was $2.00 plus postage. Get one to set aside for when you might decide to rake in some of that electioneering cash. /s

this "Joy" word of the week ploy is just a continuation of many,many word of the week predecessors, where every media outlet gets a single word/term from the campaign and they ALL use it. Previously they all used "Dark" to denote a Trump speech, and then again for his 1st SOTU(or maybe it was his inaugural speech). It's a pity we cannot post pictures because I have a screen grab that shows 30 News Stories ALL using it. The first instance was "Gravitas" being used to describe W picking Cheney as VP. Which led to the exposure of a private Media web page that nearly all media people belonged to, where it was hatched as a game, "see who can use it in a story", but later became an industry wide collusion clearinghouse..

It's the standard progressive fascination with statist symbolism. A key early example is FDR's 1933 National Industrial Recovery Act, shortened to the National Recovery Act or NRA. Google it and click into the image tab. The imagery is famously Fascist.

#1, HHH spoke at my university in '72 with his "politics of joy" BS. I was there and laughed at him. The funny thing is, he was an old school Democrat patriot back then. His party went so far crazy left he wouldn't recognize it today. No patriots left. All domestic enemies that he would despise.

On Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court denied an emergency application by the Biden Administration for partial stays on orders entered by district courts and affirmed by the Fifth and Sixth Circuits. As usual in such cases, the Court’s order was Per Curiam. The order lays out the procedural history succinctly: "The Department of Education recently issued a new rule implementing Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972.

Stifling of free speech remains in full force in Great Britain and attempts continue by the worst power-hungry leaders in Europe to extend their self-serving censorship here. Last Monday, Thierry Breton, Commissioner for the EU internal market, warned Elon Musk that the planned Musk-Trump interview could run afoul of the EU’s overreaching online censorship laws. Musk ignored the warning of Mr. Thierry, a man who is the very avatar of “Eurotrash.” (Musk has been threatened by a variety of autocrats around the world for refusing to bow to their censorship dictates.)

The Democrats already froze befuddled Joe Biden out of the presidential campaign, and one can hardly blame them; the Biden reelection effort looked like it was going to deliver the Democrats a catastrophic loss in November. Imagine things being so bad that Kamala Harris looks to be the better alternative! That's where they were, and invoking that big vaudevillian hook from stage left to yank old Joe out of the picture was, candidly, the smart thing to do. Might they go the next step, though, and invoke the 25th Amendment to take the declining President Biden out of the picture altogether? Douglas MacKinnon, opinion contributor at The Hill,

Well it's hardly a surprise that writers at outlets like RedState aren't thrilled with Kamala Harris' Soviet-style economic proposals, but it is startling to see even far-left outlets criticizing the vice president and Democrat presidential nominee because usually she can do no wrong in their eyes. As my colleague Nick Arama wrote, even a Washington Post columnist trashed her ideas in a Thursday op-ed titled (beautifully, I must say), "When your opponent calls you 'communist,' maybe don't propose price controls?" Even CNN—normally a reliable mouthpiece for the DNC—jumped in with two separate segments savaging Kamala's "price gouging" proposals, which seem to come straight out of Venezuela.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ plan to avoid the media because her team laughably thinks that no one pays attention to significant networks or prominent newspapers isn’t going to last. Yes, media is an ever-changing landscape, but solely focusing on TikTok and social media is a surefire way to lose an election. People need to hear ideas and policies that will help them, and Kamala hasn’t offered much. What she has provided is a throwback to Soviet Russia. It’s a window into why her team keeps her from press conferences. The latest pitch to curb inflation is to stomp out price-gouging, which is such

How can you make an assassination attempt funny? The quick answer is that you can’t, and you shouldn’t. Yet, comedian Drew Dunn did it somehow. His routine about the Trump assassination attempt on July 13 is funny. It’s now over-the-top—it’s hilarious. Given the subject matter, some might not find it humorous, but I respect comedians who push the limits and go there since not all are successful or good at it. Yet, this one right here is pretty damn good. There was probably high anxiety in the room when he set up the joke.

This is an official Kamala Harris campaign video. It is hard to say what the point is. Kamala ridicules white people for eating food that isn’t spicy. The commercial is a dialogue between Harris and Tim Walz. Walz plays the white guy who eats “white guy tacos.” Walz is the bottom end of this relationship: he humiliates himself by being subservient to Harris, on behalf of (obviously inferior) white people: (X) Playing to idiotic racial stereotypes is commonly known as racism. One wonders how Walz’s fellow Minnesotans will react to his claim that we don’t eat any spices more exotic than pepper. The whole thing is puzzling. Other than reassuring voters

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said she tells Republican leaders, “We’re out to get you, you’re dead,” and likened Donald Trump to a fascist, weeks after Trump was shot in the ear by a would-be assassin. Pelosi pounded the table angrily in an interview with reporters while “dispensing wisdom that sounds like a mix of a crime boss and local party activist,” The Washington Post reported. Following the assassination attempt on Trump, President Joe Biden gave an Oval Office address that said that political rhetoric has a role in contributing to violence. “We can’t allow this violence to be normalized,” Biden said. “The political rhetoric in this country

I’m one of those who finds it hard to believe that the Secret Service’s endless failures on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, were merely accidents that, equally accidentally, paved the way for someone to come within a whisker of assassinating President Trump. That much incompetence seems purposeful, not accidental. On the other hand, the story of the Secret Service agent who vanished from guarding President Trump so that she could breastfeed her baby does indicate a level of incompetence so over-the-top that DEI obsessions really could explain what happened in Butler.

The Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos, but it reads like it's owned by the Democratic National Committee. Consider the bias by omission. On Aug. 9, Washington Examiner reporter Gabe Kaminsky found an uncomfortable story: "Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, on at least five occasions as governor of Minnesota, hosted a Muslim cleric who celebrated Hamas's Oct. 7 attack last year on Israel and promoted a film popular among Neo-Nazis that glorifies Adolf Hitler." After Hamas terrorists slaughtered 1,200 civilians, Imam Asad Zaman wrote he "stands in solidarity with Palestinians against Israeli attacks." The group Zaman leads, the Muslim American Society of Minnesota,

The already-long 2024 presidential campaign has become the strangest in modern history. Here are 10 unanswered questions that illustrate how and why we've entered this bizarro world: 1. How can Kamala Harris merely promise us fixes to come in 2025 for inflation and an open border when she is still vice president for another six months? Why can't she enact her proposed solutions to these problems (which she helped create) right now? 2. Would the media prefer to help her win but lose further credibility themselves by failing to ask why she has disowned her last three decades of leftist agendas, or to reclaim some of their reputations and thereby risk her losing?

Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz used favorable language to describe Chinese communism when teaching a high school social studies class in 1991, according to an unearthed article in Nebraska’s Alliance Times-Herald. Walz told students that, under communism, “everyone shares” and gets free food and housing from the government, according to the resurfaced newspaper piece first reported by the Washington Free Beacon. Just two years before the article was published, China’s communist government massacred pro-democracy student protesters in Tiananmen Square, with death counts ranging from several hundred to thousands, according to the BBC.

Video footage posted on X showed protesters dressed in white outfits, appearing to look like abortion pills with the words “MIFE” and “MISO” written on them. “MIFE” stands for mifepristone, which is “the first of two medications used in a medication abortion.” “MISO” stands for misoprostol and is the “second medication” in a medical abortion, according to Planned Parenthood’s website.

My flak jacket is on as I write this since I am sure to offend or p*** off some friends, family, and colleagues who are ostensibly Republicans or conservatives but have a visceral aversion to Donald Trump. Some tell me they are Republican and miss Ronald Reagan but also admit they “couldn’t” vote for Donald Trump in either 2016 or 2020. Nothing says one is Republican like voting for a liberal Democrat. This is the NeverTrump wing of the Republican Party, emerging shortly after Trump secured the GOP nomination in 2016. Reasons for NeverTrump-ism are myriad. Some were offended by his mean tweets, name-calling, and brash Queens personality.

The iconic motorcycle manufacturer follows John Deere & Co. and Tractor Supply, which both made similar decisions to scratch their diversity programs earlier this summer. In a message posted to X, Milwaukee-based Harley-Davidson said it currently has no "DEI function" and has not operated such a program since April 2024.

Sunday was a banner day for the Harris campaign. After weeks of carefully curated events, the vice president turned presidential nominee went off-script multiple times, reminding Americans why they once ranked her the most unpopular major politician in the country. After delivering a word salad on the "duality of democracy," a line she's used many times before, she then explained to a high school football team that they can be "undefeated" even if they don't win a game. It was vintage Kamala Harris, punctuated by a visit to a gas station that left people wincing. I don't know about you, but I was going to vote for no price controls,

Secretary of State Antony Blinken met Monday with Israeli officials and pushed for a hostage and ceasefire deal as Democrats kicked off their convention in Chicago, with the goal of a deal by the end of the week. President Joe Biden laid out the end-of-week goal on Saturday, and Blinken claimed that it was the “last opportunity” for an agreement — though it was not clear why, other than the political goal of reaching a deal during the convention. Israeli President Isaac Herzog met with Blinken, and told the media afterwards that Hamas, not Israel, was blocking a hostage deal: We are surrounded by terror

Planned Parenthood Great Rivers announced it was bringing its mobile health clinic to Chicago and offering free services to those who signed up on August 19 and 20, which are the first two days of the convention. Before the clinic even arrived, they announced that all of the appointments had been filled and that they would follow up if they had cancelations but the move sparked an avalanche of criticism online.
