CAN AMERICA REALLY AFFORD MORE OF JOE BIDEN'S DEBACLES - A recent Joe Biden promo shows that he’s held together by videotape editing

 

I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to undeclared nuclear war.                                             TULSI GABBARD


JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes.  In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze.

Here is the problem in a nutshell.  Most Democrat voters don't realize that leftist idealogues have hijacked the Democrat party, actively pushing traditional Democrat politicians out.  They don't yet understand that the Democrat party they knew doesn't exist anymore.  Almost all of the major news organizations work together to lie to Democrat voters and feed them misinformation constantly.  Corrupted government entities like the FBI and the DOJ, and the leftists running all social media, have worked together to censor and silence any dissenting voices.  The goal is to create a false reality in the eyes of Democrat voters and shield them from the truth.  This is vital to ensure their continued support on Election Day.

A growing number of Americans is beginning to realize that there is another purpose to and message behind Democrats’ actions that extends to everyday people who might not like or support one or more of the things that the cabal is forcing upon them—things such as discriminatory CRT and DEI doctrines throughout our schools, weaponized federal agencies and the military, protection for BLM and Antifa violence, open borders for illegal and unvetted aliens, toxic and irreversible “gender affirming” treatments for minors, biological males in women’s spaces, costly and destructive “green” policies, massive taxpayer funds sent to Ukraine, student loan bailouts, mask and vaccine mandates, mandatory preferred pronoun usage, prevention or punishment of free speech, and so  much more.      By Greg Salsbury

The current debate in American politics is a sad one. It’s called “Your candidate is more senile than mine.” However, much as leftists (plus Nikki Haley) try to say that Donald Trump shows the same cognitive decline as Joe Biden, anyone can see that this isn’t true. Trump is the same as he ever was; Joe Biden is being held together by duct tape (or, in his case, carefully edited videotape).

When it comes to Donald Trump, what you see is what you get…and what you’ve always gotten. He is the modern equivalent of Oliver Cromwell’s instruction to Sir Peter Lely, his portrait painter, that the painting should be honest, showing “warts and all.” Trump is now as he always has been.

Trump is a master of puffery (which is not the same, factually or legally, as lying). He speaks discursively, taking an endless amount of time to get to his point, but he always gets there at last. He’s repetitive, which is something a good salesman needs to be. He can speak telegraphically, packing enormous content into short phrases (e.g. “build the wall” became his visually effective shorthand for the problems of illegal immigration and the need for a fix). And he openly and often childishly insults his enemies. Trump is still Trump.

Joe Biden, however, is a shell of himself. Just compare Biden in 2012, a mere 12 years ago, when he was debating Paul Ryan with a recent appearance. In this first video, he’s a bully and a liar who completely intimidates Paul Ryan. Biden’s lack of intelligence shows in the stupid political positions he takes, but he’s totally on the ball:

In this second video, he’s barely sentient:

The latest example of Biden’s mental decline comes directly from the White House. Someone there decided that Biden needed to get out in front to promote the National Security Bill that massively funds Ukraine, somewhat funds Israel, balances the funds to Israel with funds to Hamas, and completely ignores America’s own border. The video is only two minutes long but, as Joe Concha points out, it has 28 cuts (very obvious cuts).

I got motion-sick watching that.

It’s true that quick cuts are often used to add a little energy to what modern audiences perceive as the “flatness” of someone just speaking. They want different angles. Additionally, people speaking extemporaneously in their own videos and podcasts sometimes use it to eliminate errors, gaps, or filler words.

It’s different when someone is relying on a script. In that case, Concha is correct that there here should be a minimal number of cuts. Too many cuts are a giveaway that the speaker was incapable of following the script. Biden clearly has a TelePrompter in front of him but he still cannot along. You can imagine the endless number of takes to get those 28 little pieces.

Biden is broken. He’s long been morally broken, but now he’s mentally broken, too. In this respect, he is the perfect representative of a Democrat party that went off the tracks a few decades ago.

Just think of Oscar Wilde’s famous The Picture of Dorian Gray, in which a man sells his soul to remain forever youthful in appearance, with his aging playing out on an utterly grotesque portrait hidden in his attic. When it comes to the Democrat party, which hides behind actors, academics, and botoxed politicians, Biden is their Picture of Dorian Gray, fully out of the closet.

Breitbart Editor-in-Chief and New York Times bestselling Breaking Biden author Alex Marlow told YouTuber Stephen Gardner the Bidens would be in “handcuffs” if the United States “had a responsible Department of Justice.”

 

“Protect and enrich.” This is a perfect encapsulation of the Clinton Foundation  (TWO GAMER LAWYERS - OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS) (WHAT ABOUT THE CHINA BIDEN PENN CENTER?)  and the Obama (TWO GAMER LAWYERS - OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS) book and television deals. Then there is the Biden family (FOUR GAMER LAWYERS - JOE, HUNTER, JAMES, FRANK - OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS AND LARRY FINK OF BLACKROCK)  corruption, followed closely behind by similar abuses of power and office by the Warren (GAMER LAWYER) and Sanders families, as Peter Schweizer described in his recent book “Profiles in Corruption.” These names just scratch the surface of government corruption (ADD GAMER LAWYER KAMALA HARRIS (WANTS TO BE OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS) AND HER LAWYER HUSBAND AND THE BANKSTERS’ RENT BOY, LAWYER CHUCK SCHUMER, OWNED BY LARRY FINK OF BLACKROCK WHO OWNS A BIG PIECE OF THE ‘BIG GUY’ JOE, AND GEORGE SOROS’ RENT BOY (GAMER LAWYER) TONY BLINKEN, AS WELL AS CON MAN (GAMER LAWYER) ADAM SHIFF AND HIS CORRUPTNESS (GAMER LAWYER) BOB MENENDEZ STILL EVADING PRISON BUT STILL SUCKING BRIBES LIKE A BIDEN.

Of Course We Should Mock the State

Every once in a while, Big Government globalists inadvertently tell the truth.  It’s usually not because they’re dumb, but because they’re so entombed inside their own dystopian cocoons that they forget how crazy they might sound to reasonable, well adjusted people.  The World Economic Forum is filled with giddy zealots who have no idea how insane their plans for global domination sound to the wider population because the WEF’s psychopathic members are universally eager to depopulate the planet; cage the survivors; and drip-feed their human pets with a cocktail of drugs, bugs, and propaganda.  Ordinary people look at Klaus Schwab and see Dr. Evil.  WEF-fers see Commie Klaus as a shiny-headed (perhaps reflecting so much bright light as to be downright Luciferian) globalist god.  While Davos devotees yearn for a “new world order,” prudent Westerners are thinking about how to end the WEF’s madness before it abruptly ends them.  

There was a time when Americans would look at some of the eccentric cult behavior taking place in Europe, shake their heads, and dismiss it as the kind of kookiness that happens when Old World aristocrats and commie-curious “elites” get together to drown their sorrows in cognac and regale each other with tales of lost colonies and mighty empires.  Then American politicians began sounding a lot like their European cousins, who speak of common people as a farmer would a sounder of smelly pigs.  When then-senator Barack Obama was yukking it up on the campaign trail with Nancy Pelosi’s friends in San Francisco, he complained about “bitter” blue-collar voters who “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them.”  Even Hillary Clinton cackled at that mask-slipping moment, when she denounced Obama’s remarks as “elitist and out of touch.”  She was lying, of course, because eight years later, she told an audience in New York City that half of Donald Trump’s voters are “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic — you name it” and deserve to be relegated to a “basket of deplorables.”  Those moments of candor — delivered in front of adulatory audiences who shared Obama’s and Clinton’s cloistered worldview — crystallized for tens of millions of Americans that the political “elites” occupying D.C. have more in common with Dr. Evil’s communist club of aspiring tyrants in Davos than with the hardworking, God-fearing, patriotic citizens who have always sacrificed so much to make America great.

Ever since Obama’s election, the effort to bulldoze America and rebuild on its rubble a compliant nexus point for the WEF’s coercive Borg to dominate the West has picked up speed.  Unaccountable bureaucrats and politicians in Washington don’t even pretend to respect the will of voters anymore.  Strong majorities of Americans have said resoundingly: close and secure the borders, stop spending money that you do not have, end widespread warrantless surveillance, stop censoring public debate, stop distorting the law to punish dissenting voices, safeguard elections from mail-in ballot fraud, and stop funneling money to foreign regimes that use that money to attack the United States.  The hive-mind Borg in D.C. has told the American people to go suck an egg.  The federal government’s targeted abuse of Americans has been an eye-opening experience for many.

Consider this question: when is the last time you can remember an Establishment politician trying to unite Americans behind common history and principles, irrespective of background or race?  It’s been many years, has it not?  Why is that?  Because the current power structure of the U.S. government depends upon keeping Americans fiercely divided.

The moment a large coalition of Americans come together to tackle common obstacles is the moment that the small “ruling class” of political elites (across all three branches and the vast, unconstitutional administrative State) get tossed to the curb.  From D.C.’s point of view, the scariest thing about Donald Trump is that his policies make sense to an amazingly diverse cross-section of the American people.  In his wake, the political class’s usual attempt to pour salt in old racial wounds has become less effective.  That’s why we now hear so much about the scourge of “Christian nationalism.”  The attempt to use religious discrimination as a new wedge to divide society is an admission that the Deep State is desperate for a new boogeyman.

As a Christian who does not have an irrational fear of nation states, I always think, “Better to be a Christian nationalist than a globalist child-groomer, amirite?”  What those who seek to divide us are really saying through the use of this Christian dog whistle is that people who believe in personal freedom, the Bill of Rights, and the Bible are somehow “white supremacist” Nazis.  That’s a pretty hard sell when WEF-fers are the biggest Nazis operating today.

In Germany, where ordinary people have begun pushing back against a government hostile to their safety and prosperity, far-left interior minister Nancy Faeser goose-stepped to the nearest microphone and announced that voters who criticize the German government or donate to unapproved political parties will be treated as potential criminals.  How very democratic — and certainly not at all reminiscent of the bad old days when fascism was openly in fashion!  “Those who mock the State must be dealt with by a strong State,” the Cruella de Vil clone warned the German people.  Hear that, Germany?  You must not laugh at the people who are destroying your country with “green energy”–induced inflation and open border immigration policies.  Otherwise, you might just get a spanking.  In order to remain “free,” you must do exactly what you’re told.  Those who resist will lose the “freedom” to obey.

Wow, totalitarianism is well on its way to reclaiming Germany for the umpteenth time.  I did Nazi that coming.

I do love it when tyrants let the truth slip out.  It makes it easier for defenders of freedom to quantify just what’s at stake.  Somewhere there’s a rebellious German meme-maker with encoded DNA that makes him “ungovernable,” and when Führer Faeser demands his contrition while some State goon is bashing in his teeth, the lad will look up from the floor, raise a defiant middle finger, and whisper through a bloody smile, “I must not mock the State.”  For the love of freedom everywhere, we must all mock the State.  The quickest way to defang any totalitarian regime is to paint it with the emasculating brush of contemptuous ridicule. 

There is nothing that infuriates me more than a tyrant.  Ancient Greek playwright Aeschylus wrote, “Death is better, a milder fate than tyranny.”  Aesop observed that it is better to “starve free than be a fat slave.”  French philosopher Albert Camus exhorted listeners to understand “that freedom is not a gift received from a State or a leader but a possession to be won every day by the effort of each and union of all.”  Amidst the violent struggles and unexpected turning points that have shaped the record of our history, a powerful human impulse has stubbornly persisted: the desire to be free.

There is a segment of the human race that will never surrender.  There is an even larger population that springs to life when theoretical warnings become real enough to smack ingenuous dreamers across the face.  Every time totalitarianism’s boot bruises another neck, a resistance movement grows in strength until the monster wearing that boot comes crashing down.  And, still, with the weight of history serving as a warning to all who seek to smother human liberty, tyrants rise again today like a hydra-headed beast wishing enslavement for any who get in its way.  That is why, as Camus warned, freedom must be won again every single day.

Can it be done?  Absolutely.  How does it begin?  By laughing at the State.
