Lame Duck Lies


Joe Biden went on nationwide TV last night in a prime time address to the American people. He said that he would always tell us the truth, and then proceeded to tell us a litany of lies.


We thought we were going to get an explanation as to why he suddenly changed his mind about running for reelection. Instead, we got a partisan and divisive speech without one word about his health. The only “explanation” Biden offered was that he was stepping down to “pass the torch to a new generation.”


Nobody believes that. It wasn’t that long ago, when Biden emphatically declared:


“Let me say this as clearly as I possibly can and as simply and straightforward as I can: I am running. I’m the nominee of the Democratic Party. No one’s pushing me out. I’m not leaving. I’m in this race to the end.”


How did we go from that to “passing the torch” so quickly? I guarantee you, it wasn’t Biden’s decision. That was a speech he never wanted to give but was forced to give because he was “pushed out.” That’s how the Soviet Politburo operated.


Biden also prattled on and on about “saving our democracy.” The audacity! The irony! He’s just been the victim of a coup that disenfranchised millions of primary voters and installed a candidate no one voted for! Yet he’s lecturing the rest of us about “democracy.”


Biden condemned political violence. But he has stoked political violence with his over-the-top, demonizing rhetoric aimed at conservatives and pro-life activists. But while he was speaking, political violence was taking place on Capitol Hill. 




Hamas’s Hate


America-hating, Jew-hating, neo-Marxists, and their radical Islamist allies took over Union Station, an iconic landmark. They defaced our monuments. They took down our flags, burned them, and raised the Palestinian flag.


Some carried the flag of the terrorist group Hamas. Others carried signs calling for the genocide of the Jews in the name of Allah.

The Biden White House did not say anything, and they did not do anything because they are trying to appease the Jew-hating, Israel-hating left-wing base of the progressive movement. That’s why Kamala Harris boycotted Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress yesterday.


The strongest denunciation of the violence occurring all over Washington was left to the prime minister of Israel, who called the radical protesters “Iran’s useful idiots.” The prime minister of Israel is more pro-American than the president of the United States.


Netanyahu reminded members of Congress, “Our enemies are your enemies. Our fight is your fight. And our victory will be your victory.” He’s not just referring to Hamas and Iran. The anti-Israel Hamas sympathizers in the streets of Washington yesterday hate America, too.


By the way, Netanyahu also called out “Gays for Gaza.” He said, “They might as well hold up signs saying chickens for KFC.”




Even More Lies


Last night, Joe Biden repeated another outrageous lie. Biden declared, “I’m the first president in this century to report to the American people that the United States is not at war anywhere in the world.”


Really?


That will be a big surprise to our troops fighting in Africa. And we’re up to our necks in the war in Ukraine. We are closer to nuclear war today than at any point since the Cuban Missile Crisis.


Granted, we’re not fighting in Afghanistan anymore. Biden’s ignoble retreat that resulted in the deaths of 13 American heroes saw to that.


We are back on our heels all over the world. We have Iranian assassins in the U.S. trying to kill Donald Trump and Mike Pompeo. The communist Chinese are hacking our corporations, our water plants, our banks, and our government every day.


If you asked Premier Xi privately, “Are you at war with the U.S.,” he would laugh and say, “Of course, we are, you idiot.”


I don’t know if Russia and communist China got their hands on an advance copy of Biden’s speech last night. But it sure seemed like they anticipated what he was going to say.


Just before Biden spoke, communist Chinese and Russian long-range bombers flying together approached the sovereign territory of the United States heading toward Alaska. The only thing that turned them around was the fact that we had to send up fighter jets.


This was the first time Chinese bombers approached our coast. The fact that they were accompanied by Russian bombers and flew on the very day Biden was admitting just how weak he really is should frighten us all.




Dissing Bibi


We’re still trying to figure out how a 20 year-old, who we’re told was acting alone, managed to conduct drone surveillance at a Trump rally site, fire off eight shots, nearly killing the former president, and actually killing one of the attendees and wounding others.


He succeeded because multiple Secret Service guidelines were, for some unknown reason, violated or ignored. By the way, there is more information indicating that the shooter was a leftist and inspired by the left.


Now fast forward to Washington, D.C., yesterday.


When Volodymyr Zelensky visits Washington he gets presidential-level security. Not the kind of security given to former President Donald Trump, but the same level of security given to President Joe Biden. He also stays at the Blair House, across from the White House, which is reserved for visiting heads of state.


In contrast, the Biden administration insisted on having a list of everyone traveling with Netanyahu, who was understandably concerned about security given the explosion of anti-Semitism we have seen here lately. But Biden officials objected to the number of security personnel Netanyahu wanted to bring and forced the Israeli delegation to cut back on their security.


Then, the prime minister of Israel was reportedly denied use of the Blair House. He was instead put up at the Watergate Hotel, which was promptly invaded by radical leftists who spread maggots and other insects all over the hotel. Last night, the Watergate’s fire alarms were repeatedly set off.


Clearly, the security was inadequate.


Does anyone see a theme here? Let me help you.


If you are a political rival to the current neo-Marxist regime in America, or if you are a foreign leader who will not fall down on your knees and suck the toes of the president (figuratively speaking, of course), you should not relax just because the Biden administration is providing security.


Just like there are two systems of justice, there appears to be two levels of security -- one for friends of the regime and one for opponents.




Wray’s Turn


Yesterday, it was FBI Director Christopher Wray’s turn to testify about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. His testimony was better than that of former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle. But he still wasn’t entirely forthcoming, in my opinion.


There are only a couple of fundamental questions. One is: Why was Trump allowed to go out on the stage? The whole reason the Secret Service is there is to protect the high-profile official they are assigned to.


When Wray was asked about this, he replied, “We don’t know the answer to that.”


How is that possible? That should be one of the first things to get nailed down.


Wray couldn’t answer that critical question, but here’s what he did share with the committee: FBI officials discovered that the shooter had researched how far away Lee Harvey Oswald was when he shot John F. Kennedy. There was a lot of murmuring in the room when Wray said that.


What does that have to do with anything?


I believe that “revelation” was just “candy” for the rest of us. It was a total distraction that was totally irrelevant to the crisis we are in. It’s of no consequence whatsoever!


Wray wanted to make headlines, and he did. It made the front page of today’s Washington Post: “Shooter Looked Up Killing Of Kennedy.”


I don’t need to hear about the shooter’s interest in the JFK assassination to believe he was an evil individual. But I am having a hard time believing that he was able to pull this off by himself.


Even if we accept a degree of incompetence in the Secret Service, the magnitude of this incompetence strongly suggests intentionality.
