The State of Our Union Is Sorry

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 2/19/2022 12:51:49 AM

My son Cameron and I can hardly wait for President Biden’s upcoming State of the Union address. “What do you think he’s going to say on March 1, Dad?” he asked me earlier this week during our phone call. “That the State of the Union is …. very sad? Screwed? You finish the sentence.” “Seriously,” Cameron said. “The State of the Union is supposed to be upbeat – positive – or at least hopeful, right?” “Yeah,” I said. “His speechwriters must be working overtime. The list of big things he’s messed up in a single year is long and getting longer.” “So what’s he going to brag about to the country?” Cameron asked.

Comments:

I can't wait to miss the State of the Union show!! I'd watch it, but I'm scheduled to wash my cat, rearrange my sock drawer, scrub my toilet with my electric toothbrush and count all of the new blades of grass growing in my yard!!

Something doesn't add up. Writer is "Leah Barkoukis," whose photograph leads one to believe she's a woman; however, in the dialogue in the article, son Cameron repeatedly addresses the writer as "Dad."

Rumor has it that Biden is going to list all of his administration's accomplishments. If so, this will be the shortest SoTU speech in history.

He will say or imply that Corona was rampaging out of control because Trump had so botched the response. But he, FJB, brought it all under control! He will milk this for all it's worth with charts and diagrams. Easily 10 -15 minutes of the speech, with many in the audience to stand and thank him for some particular response of his that saved their lives. Yes, of course it is total BS, but this is a man who made a career of BS. He will say the economy is in great shape, citing employment numbers higher than expected. Again, charts, graphs. Biden saved the US economy! Then how he is saving the planet by shutting down environmental pollutants. Yes, like oil pipelines that have driven up the price of gas and home heating oil to record levels-- but never mind that. The whole Democrat contingent will rise as one with thunderous applause that FJB has saved the planet! Well, you get the idea. If you thought he might appear sheepish, apologetic, you don't know FJB, the corrupt-to-the-core lifelong politician for whom lying comes as easy as breathing. Will he actually fool anyone? Only the most clueless, dim witted sliver of the population. Still, the address will be reported as a resounding success by the cretins who now comprise "journalists" in America. I used to wonder where the old Soviet Union found so many soul-less, spineless writers willing to say anything at all in support of their crooked leaders.

The highlights will be the great employment accomplishments, the booming economy and the very successful pullout from Afghanistan. Oh, and it's about time to claim official credit for the sudden drop in COVID cases although that will make if difficult to continue pushing the vaccines but that's a problem for tomorrow. Sorry to spoil it for anybody but you can thank me for saving you a lot of time looking at a corpse with a moving mouth.

Republicans should not show up because FJB was elected by fraud and is not the President of over half the country. There will be no Republicans behind, Nancy and Kamel will be there.

Happy Tuesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. The dress code has been amended to include ascots and Crocs, but never together. One of the best arguments for colonizing the moon and Mars is that there would be someplace to get away to when this world gets crazy. On the off chance that you haven’t been outside in while, I would like to pass along the fact that the world is, at present, a little Froot Loops. If someone had written a novel describing the last two years, critics would have panned it as a dystopian effort that was just a little too over the top.

Elon Musk is one of those rare entrepreneurs who is incredibly successful and also a bit of a smart ass to the elected elite who could potentially make his business life more difficult than it already is. This is why he is a must-follow on Twitter or anywhere he comments because he is going to give you some verbal gold nuggets. When he does and it is against a fraud like Elizabeth Warren of Taxachusetts, it is just so enjoyable to watch.

Financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein died in a Manhattan prison in August of 2019 under very mysterious circumstances. He was awaiting trial on additional charges when he supposedly committed “suicide” by hanging himself, although he told a prison psychologist, he would never take his own life. To make matters even more suspicious, the video of his cell during the time of his death was conveniently “lost.” The prison guards on duty that night were reportedly playing video games and asleep, (Snip)This convenient “suicide” has now been followed by another one less than three years later.

Justin Trudeau has a highly inflated opinion of himself, without cause. But he’s about to get ripped apart on Monday in the vote on the Emergencies Act, and over the horrible actions of both his government and the actions of police in Ottawa here, here , and here. The evisceration which is coming will all be richly and justifiably deserved. Trudeau has falsely attacked and demonized the Freedom Convoy, (Snip) But someone who comes from a country that knows something about Communist dictatorships, Romanian Member of the European Parliament Cristian Terhes, had a few things to say about Trudeau and his crackdown on the Freedom Convoy.

Some years ago, your favorite, quasi-anonymous political writer made his debut on Sean Hannity’s primetime show. Sure, it was only a brief mention of my article’s premise, alongside a screenshot of the headline, but for that moment, I transcended…something. The article in question was titled “Joe Biden Produces a Word Salad So Bad It’ll Make You Question Everything.” And while it seems almost quaint now, having been written prior to the 2020 election, it remains no less instructive today, serving as a reminder of just how far gone Biden was — even during the campaign. Behold, the man who would go on to become the current President of the United States.

The protesters in Ottawa are hoping to make it through the weekend until the Senate convenes. They want to make it to Monday because the Emergencies Act has to be approved by the Parliament within seven days of it being called for, which was on February 14. So it has to be approved by tomorrow. They are hoping that the legislators will not approve it, the police will back off, and the Parliament will address their concerns. There were still hundreds of protesters out Saturday in Ottawa, more even than there were earlier when there was a lot of police action against them.
Why Presidents’ Day Matters 18 replies

Presidents’ Day is one of those uniquely American holidays. As such, it is under scrutiny and condemnation of the anti-American Left. Honoring men, white men for that matter, who engaged in colonization and racism, the argument goes ad nauseum, is bad. Shame on us who honor these despicable men. The condemnation of Washington, and even Lincoln, fails to miss a broader and bigger story that their inspirational memory is meant to reveal: the growth of liberty and equality in the United States that Washington helped give birth to and that Lincoln helped to preserve and expand. Focusing on the detriments of Washington and Lincoln as individuals obscures the bigger story

Are you "white"? If you go to the paint store and ask for white paint, does the paint match your skin color? If you put your arm against a white appliance, does it look the same? If you are naked in a snowstorm, do you become completely camouflaged? If you put your hand in a copy machine does a blank page come out? No it doesn't, because you aren't white, you are more of a harvest peach. Does that make you "Caucasian"?

It has often been said that the Republican Party is the “party of old white men.” Indeed, when one looks at the party’s makeup, one can easily see why this moniker has persisted for so many decades. However, there are signs that times are a-changing, and the conservative movement is beginning to look a little different. Newsweek’s Steve Friess wrote an article titled “GOP Bets on Black Conservatives As Key to Victory: ‘We Change or We Die,’” in which he detailed the increasing prevalence of black conservatives running for office as Republicans.

Things are escalating in Ottawa as the Freedom Convoy protesters continue to fight against Canada’s draconian COVID-19 measures. But while the focus started on the message, it is now firmly on the behavior of the Ottawa Police Department. As RedState has chronicled, numerous videos of mistreatment and violence perpetrated by police on peaceful protesters have emerged. Perhaps the most stunning example was the trampling of a disabled woman by officers on horseback. In response, the police lied, claiming a bike had been thrown at the horses. That was quickly debunked, showing how valuable it is that people are videoing what’s happening. On Saturday, Ottawa’s chief of police gave a press conference

Because Putin knows if I am president of the United States, his days of tyranny and trying to intimidate the United States and those in Eastern Europe are over.”

Wauwatosa, Wis.—Twin sisters in Wisconsin are facing attempted homicide charges while the restaurant worker they are accused of shooting and beating is recovering in a neck brace. Anthony Rodriguez, 26, says he was the only server working around midnight Jan. 30 at a George Webb location in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. He says a few customers became upset over an incomplete order and were asked to leave, but instead, one of them opened fire. Shot in the face over a $3 hamburger, Rodriguez says he thought his life was over. One of the customers stomped his face while he was on the ground after the shooting.

Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse plans to take aim at the people and organizations who called him a 'murderer', a 'white supremacist' among other things in the run up to his trial and subsequent acquittal. Rittenhouse killed two men and wounded a third during confrontations amid anti-police protests in Kenosha in August 2020. He testified that he acted in self-defense. Last November, the 18-year-old was found not guilty of first-degree intentional homicide and other charges, and walked out of court a free man.

U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland in November formally declared the term derogatory and initiated a process to remove the word from use by the federal government and to replace other existing derogatory place names. Haaland said in a statement Tuesday that words matter, particularly as the agency works to make the nation’s public lands and waters accessible and welcoming to people of all backgrounds.

President Biden will announce Tuesday a series of public and private-sector investments to extract minerals such as cobalt, lithium and graphite that are needed for electric vehicles and other aspects of the global shift toward a “clean energy economy,” the White House said. The administration expects demand for these minerals to spike 400-600% generally and demand for minerals used in electric vehicles to jump 6,000% over the next several decades. Mr. Biden is fearful the U.S. is too dependent on China so he will trumpet new investments after ordering a review of the supply chain a year ago. “Critical minerals provide the building blocks for many modern technologies
