Republicans show some backbone on the
presidential debates

For a so-called loser who's out of power and supposedly irrelevant, President Trump sure does seem to be triggering changes among the jellyfish who otherwise make up the Republican Party leadership. It's not just that candidates who emulate President Trump's agenda are doing well in elections, as did Glenn Youngkin in Virginia's governor's race, or those who yell about Trump are washing out. (Memo to Liz). It's not just that all of a sudden, congressional representatives and senators are deciding to stay in the House and Senate, as did Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, who had been talking up retirement for years. We're now seeing a Trump-like fighting spirit

Writing a letter and having cordial meetings is not displaying backbone. Let's suppose that official Commission on Presidential Debates sets its rules and the GOP claims favoritism...bans its candidate from appearing...and the debates go on...with Joe doing a solo with an empty podium on stage beside him. Great positive pub for the Republican, eh? What's the GOP gonna do if the candidate accepts the invitation anyways?

It should have happened decades ago. The debater commission has been extremely biased for a very long time, and it has been very obvious.

Long overdue. I am tired of watching a presidential where our guy/gal faces off against everyone else in the room especially the moderator. I long for the day when someone will stand up just like Reagan when he said, "I am paying for this microphone".

The Left can't win unless they stack the deck...biased moderators, lying media, trumped up stories....The Left lives on the dark side and their god is the one who lies, cheats and steals, the prince of darkness. Evil, evil people. The question is why the Republican party has had debates with these Leftist moderators all these years knowing that they were fixed. How stupid are they. Demonrats are evil, the Repubs are stupid.

George H.W. Bush was sabotaged by the Commission in 1992, when he agreed to participate in that town hall format. The audience was rigged against him, as were the questions. And when Bush looked at his watch, that may have cost him the election.

Perhaps donations are down enough at the RNC that they are waking up to the fact that those of us who have been funding them are fed up to our eyebrows with the usual go-along, get-along DC cocktail party circuit.

I realize I and probably #4 could be accused of negativity as we are skeptical about the RNC’s “announcement.” Monica takes us down memory lane about this debate commission’s egregious, biased stunts that always cost our side dearly. Also, the RNC made noises before about “looking into” making changes. NOTHING HAPPENED.

there should be no "debates". nothing was ever revealed in any of the debates from JFK & Nixon right up to Trump & Diapers. - it's a show for the media to see how they can embarrass the candidate they don't like and expound the virtues of the candidate they do like. I have never watched any of these debates and never will watch them in the future.

Another Joe Biden calamity we've never seen before is now upon America. Piracy. We've got pirate problems now. Comparable to our border, our unguarded interstate rail trade is facing unprecedented robberies as its cargo moves to its destinations. It's literally being raided, pirate-style, by likely the same gangs that have raided retail stores with zero fear of prosection. Why raid a mere store when you can get the whole freight train of goods and get away with it? America's freight trains carrying goods are now under attack. The stunning report from a CBS photo journalist who went out to check a tip shows the picture of how bad it is:

An awful lot of people are making a very dangerous assumption about the COVID-19 jabs: that the manufacture of them is pristine. Everyone seems to tacitly accept that every vial of a given jab is perfect and identical to every other vial of the same thing and that it is delivered to the injection site in perfect condition. I don't think so. Bad batches? There are press reports of localized clusters of bad jab reactions, such as a huge spike in stillbirths in Scotland. See here and here. Scotland is not the only place. The U.S. has the same issues in some areas. Japan had some real issues
Joe Biden's most disgusting, dishonest speech 9 replies
Posted by PageTurner 1/7/2022 10:05:45 AM Post Reply
If you like dishonesty, and dollop after dollop of general disgustingness, Joe Biden had the speech for you. Here he was for his big Jan. 6 moment in front of Congress, denouncing his predecessor, President Trump, defending voter fraud, demanding more of it, and calling it 'democracy.' His speech was ultimately an argument for his own right to power, by fair means or foul. Andrea Widburg has an excellent piece describing the Academy Awards quality of the whole wretched specter here. (Snip for video) (You'll need to listen to this afterward as sort of a mental shower, something to get the stink off. Greg Gutfeld is in fine form:)

Congressional Democrats and their allies have been blowing a lot of hot air about the Jan. 6 "insurrection," a pathetic crowd-control failure brought on by Capitol police incompetence, crossed wires among those charged with security, and quite likely some FBI pot-stirring, through agents provocateurs. It's bee ess. The whole show is about discrediting President Trump to keep him from running for office in 2024, because, well, they know he won the 2020 election and a lot of voters would like to get their votes' worth in 2024. But that's precisely why they keep blowing the incident up into an "insurrection." According to leftist Rep. Hakeem Jeffries

Did the Twitter punks who banned mRNA vaccine inventor and bona fide vaccine expert Robert W. Malone, M.D. just set off the Mother of all Backfires? Kind of looks like it, now that they've drawn so much public interest to the man that they've apparently broken the Google algorithm for censoring stories about him. It started like this: Shortly after Malone was banned on Twitter, he did an long interview with bigfoot podcaster, Joe Rogan, arguing that the disinformation and repressed information on COVID vaccines was something resembling mass psychosis. That term, and related ones, created widely divergent results between Google and its biggest rival, the more objective DuckDuckGo search engine.

Sen. Liz Warren, an early adopter on the fake Indian front, suddenly has a lot of company. Get a load of this from Legal Insurrection: The Native American population in the U.S. grew by a staggering 86.5% between 2010 and 2020, according to the latest U.S. Census – a rate demographers say is impossible to achieve without immigration. Birth rates among Native Americans don’t explain the massive rise in numbers. And there certainly is no evidence of an influx of Native American expatriates returning to the U.S.

It's pretty amazing when leftists have to live with the results of their own decisions. Deep-blue San Francisco's descent into violent crime and chaos following its voters' choices to elect officials on platforms to "defund the police" is Exhibit A. But for the political perpetrators of these imposed anti-police agendas, it doesn't usually happen. They are, after all, a nomenklatura of sorts, and membership has its privileges. But for two leftist politicos who unleashed 'defund the police' on the public, the result was so big they couldn't escape it. They got what they voted for, "good and hard," as H.L. Mencken put it.

Most of us were pretty horrified by the travesty of justice that went down in Colorado, where a 23-year-old truck driver who lost control of his huge vehicle after its brakes failed and ended up in a fiery crash that killed four people and injured dozens of others, got a 110-year prison sentence. Rogel Aguilera-Mederos's 2019 accident was attributed not to the failure of his brakes, but entirely to a failure in his judgment over whether he could take an offramp (try doing that without brakes in a state of panic). As a result, the poor Cuban immigrant with no criminal record got a de facto death sentence

Coughing all over the place during his rare public appearances, multi-vaxxed Joe Biden gives all appearances of having COVID. But if he does, he's got politics on his mind, and therefore isn't about to be honest about it. The latest nonsense then comes from White House spokesweasel Jen Psaki, who's making curious claims. Following a report that Biden was exposed to COVID by a staffer who caught the disease, Psaki tried to spin the obvious to us about whether Biden has COVID, this time with a positively Jesuitical evasion about the president's status. She claimed this:

Leftist Gabriel Boric was elected president of Chile on Sunday by a larger-than-expected margin, giving him a mandate to push for higher taxes, greener industries and greater equality after a contest focused on discontent over an investor-friendly economy that has left many behind. The former student protest leader won 56% of the vote, beating conservative rival Jose Antonio Kast’s 44%. The victory is likely to spook markets that fear interventionist policies. Boric, 35, will take office in March as one of the youngest presidents in the world and with an ambitious agenda.

SANTIAGO, Chile — Former leftist student leader Gabriel Boric will be under quick pressure from his youthful supporters to fulfill his promises to remake Chile after the millennial politician scored a historic victory in the country’s presidential runoff election. Boric spent months traversing up and down Chile vowing to bring a youth-led form of inclusive government to attack nagging poverty and inequality that he said are the unacceptable underbelly of a free market model imposed decades ago by the dictatorship of Gen. Augusto Pinochet.

Bill and Hillary Clinton are sensing an opportunity to get back into the political fray as the Democrats look poised to be heading into a devastating midterm this fall. Politico Playbook reported Friday that the power couple believe their centrist, deal-making brand of politics could be useful as party members have tripped up President Joe Biden's agenda. They also believe that the public may have moved on from former President Bill Clinton's scandalous past, as the ratings for FX's Impeachment: American Crime Story - produced by Monica Lewinsky - were surprisingly low, Playbook said.

President Joe Biden was not making a 'human' comparison between opponents of his voter rights push with racists and segregationists in a speech this week, said the White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Friday. Rather he simply meant to compare the actions of those who opposed reform with the likes of George Wallace and other notorious figures. The clean-up came after critics accused Biden of divisive rhetoric, and the president has since seen his initiative collapse as two hold-out Democratic senators said they could not support his plan to change Senate rules in order to pass the legislation.

WASHINGTON – The Biden administration on Wednesday will launch a website where Americans can order up to four free COVID-19 testing kits per person, according to a senior administration official.

Just over a year ago, millions of energized young people, women, voters of color and independents joined forces to send Joe Biden to the White House. But 12 months into his presidency, many describe a coalition in crisis. Leading voices across Biden’s diverse political base openly decry the slow pace of progress on key campaign promises. The frustration was especially pronounced this past week after Biden’s push for voting rights legislation effectively stalled, intensifying concerns in his party that fundamental democratic principles are at risk and reinforcing a broader sense that the president is faltering at a moment of historic consequence.

A county judge in Texas dealt a blow to Governor Greg Abbott's controversial 'Operation Lone Star' after ruling his national guard's apprehension of an illegal immigrant unconstitutional Thursday. Operation Lone Star was created by Abbott amidst a wave of illegal immigrants from Central America crossing the US-Mexico border.

The ruling could see the initiative stifled with attorneys saying that it could open a path for other immigrants to challenge their detention.(Snip)On Thursday, Judge Jan Soifer ruled in favor of Jesus Alberto Guzman Curipoma, an Ecuadorian engineer arrested in September and charged with criminal trespassing.
