In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.
“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
Whenever the possibility presents, throw sand into the machinery…

BTW I see they were quick to put out that the “Mitch Clitch” from yesterday was nothing to worry about – the 81 year old Senator “has been medically cleared” according to the press release – cleared for what , not really sure? .. They trotted out the old “possible dehydration” excuse … ok , until the next time then ..
Let’s hope the next time comes soon and is the last time! His expiration date is long past due.
When I’m dehydrated, I get a leg cramp, or I just feel really tired. When McTurtle is dehydrated, HIS BRAIN FREEZES IN PLACE. Now… I’m no fancy Medical Doctor… but those seem like totally different outcomes.
JEAN-PIERRE: “The president has done more to secure the border, to deal with this issue of immigration, than anybody else. He really has!”
Utterly laughable.
There’s a reason they hired a clown for this job.
Gotta laugh to keep from crying.
She’s dumber than maxie.
Hi Peace,
See from my perspective, yes she is dumb, really who would defend this guy?
But, it is much more than dumb, it is EVIL!
Only my opinion of course!
Repeat the lie often enough? Does not make it truth.
reminds me of George Constanza: “just remember, Jerry – its not a lie if you believe it.”
She doesn’t believe it.
somebody is lying. hanson says it 7 m already.
Like the rest of the administration, liars, cheats and frauds. It is an unlawful administration. She is obviously void of any moral character.
This is your brain on drugs.
She is a complete idiot.
‘Big Favor for Hunter’: Emails Contradict Joe Biden’s ‘Absolute Wall’ Between Family and Business
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/08/31/big-favor-for-hunter-emails-contradict-joe-bidens-absolute-wall-between-family-and-business/
FTA – Hunter Biden in 2011 involved himself in planning a state dinner for Chinese officials at the White House, just months before he traveled to China to begin forming the relationships to launch BHR Partners.
Florida’s homeowner’s insurance has skyrocketed and auto insurance is 2nd highest state. Plus the condo law he passed will have enormous price increases next year for condos.
All this under meatball. Plus, he’s gone missing.
The Most Expensive States for Car Insurance
According to ValuePenguin, “The average cost of full coverage car insurance for 2023 is $1,780 per year.” The company reviewed data from Quadrant Information Services — including “millions of quotes for drivers across the U.S.” — to put together their annual State of Auto Insurance report.
So, which states have the most expensive car insurance rates and just much how more are people paying than average? Here are the top ten most expensive states:
State Average Annual Cost % Over Average
Michigan $4,788 168%
Florida $2,856 60%
Rhode Island $2,748 53%
Nevada $2,592 45%
Louisiana $2,376 33%
Massachusetts $2,136 20%
Connecticut $2,052 15%
Delaware $2,052 15%
Kentucky $2,040 14%
Colorado $2,016 13%

As an Ohioan, let me just say that nearly 60 years ago, as I-75 was still being built, a writer for the Dayton Daily News in a lead Sunday editorial complained about – and warned readers of – the driving behavior of the people in cars with Michigan license plates. 🙂
Perhaps that is why Michigan tops that list!
I was once at a German teachers’ conference in Detroit, and as everyone introduced themselves (most were Michiganders) I mentioned that I came from Toledo right across the border.
“Oh I hate Ohio!” said one lady teacher.
“Yeah, Ohio’s awful!” chimed in another.
A third and fourth agreed. So I asked: “Why?”
“I’m always getting stopped there for speeding by the Highway Patrol!”
“Yeah, me too!”
“I got stopped once for going 79! It’s just ridiculous!”
So I gently revealed that...they could try driving the speed limit! 😉
Nah, that was just crazy talk! 😇
Michiganders don’t even think the speed limit is a suggestion.
Its just there for show.
Ohio runs money grubbing speed traps at the border. No love for Michigan. But they will ticket Ohio plates too. As I said, money grubbing.
Nevada auto insurance is so expensive because every weekend our tourist destinations fill up with Californians who drink, drive, and speed.
Plus, the locals can enjoy bars that stay open 24 hours thus enabling around the clock drunk driving.
Have a relative in FL with a modest beach condo. Insurance tripled. New regulations put a $40k assessment on all units. Condo is valued at about $280K. The market to buy units there has collapsed. Buyers do not want to be saddled with the $40K assessment. Sellers cannot drop their price $40k.
Regulatory taking.
Where in fl. ? $280 for beach condo? 600 sq ft? Old unit? Where I am, inspection was done on certain group of condos (not mine)a nd they needed to be reinforced. Assessments were 15000 per and it has taken almostayear. Those units were built in 1987.
It certainly is getting more expensive on best coast of fl. Is it not more expensive to live everywhere? Every situation is different.
Pray and help others
Yes, but insurance companies are required to provide free windshield replacement.
Ok, I will step out here.
Floridians are bar none, the worst drivers I have ever been in the sad company to navigate the roads with!
Keeping in mind I spent many years driving in MA ( Please God get me there safely! Nightmare drivers there too!)
ok, moved to FL less than 2 years ago. Directionals are only a suggestion, as are Stop signs and Red lights!
Amazing approaching an intersection and literally my head is on a swivel to be sure I won’t die pulling
into the intersection when I have the right of way!
Forget the highways! It is pray all the way!!
Scary times!
Only 2 years? You will get used to it. Many elderly drivers ( over 80 plus) should not be behind the wheel. Some can’t see over the steering wheel.
I remember 30 years ago when people in nj and ny wanted to get car registered in fl. because car insurance was so much cheaper.
Think there are bad drivers everywhere. I like being on the interstate going 90 . Speed limit 75. Have started to grow tired of swfl. Maybe nfl. ,or al. Been here 25 years. Best of luck to ya.
😁😂🤣
Never Back Down says goodbye…
LOL 😂
That was so good
I will have to watch the original to cleanse my pallette!
Ha!!! THE EYEBROWS!!! That’s rreeeaaalllllly good.
They could have faded out on Jill at the very end, though… I might have gotten a little chunk of Cream Of Wheat in my nasal cavity…
I cannot remember. Did The Oprah and The Rock set up a fund to help the people in East Palestine, IL???
Uhhh…no
Oprah doesn’t have property in East Palestine, IL…but she does have extensive interest in property on that island and wants to divert attention away from this:
BREAKING NEWS: Oprah Winfrey INVESTIGATED for Maui Fires!

Arizona’s Secretary of State, Adrian Fontes, Confirms He Cannot Legally Bar Presiden Trump from the Ballot
Adrian Fontes confirmed he does not have the authority to bar Trump from the ballot. “Now, the Arizona Supreme Court said that because there’s no statutory process in federal law to enforce Section 3 of the 14th amendment, you can’t enforce it,” Fontes said.

Am assuming this should be on the Presidential daily thread since it involves financing, well, at least as far as Blackrock and bitcoin goes and how that might affect currencies and such.
A new Kitco interview is a bit helpful. Titled “Blackrock is Buying Bitcoin Miners: Is it looking to control BTC ecosystem?” with guest George Gammon; 56 minutes:
I do hope people watch this; it’s Part 1 of 2 parts (second hasn’t been posted yet) ; found myself holding my breath not wanting to miss anything being said.
This just seems important, the questions asked and answers given sure don’t shy away from saying things out loud that in our hearts we can’t help but know is trying to be implemented in the background while everyone is distracted by PDJT indictments and FJB’s crimes that Congress simply handles by holding hearings and sending out strongly worded letters.
I watched – I subscribe to George and Kitco.
Also, I highly recommend this interview Michelle did with Andy Schectman:
Is global de-dollarization an intentional & deliberate effort from within the USA? – Andy Schectman
Michelle Makori, Lead Anchor and Editor-in-Chief at Kitco News, continues her interview with Andy Schectman, President and Owner of Miles Franklin, who explores the idea that the move for countries to de-dollarize could be intentionally and deliberately driven from factions within the U.S. Schectman says it is one of the few possible solutions to the massive American debt problem and could put the U.S. on the direct path to the introduction of a central bank digital currency (CBDC). He also weighs in on the outlook of the petrodollar, the essential role gold plays in all of this, and theorizes who can be behind the de-dollarization agenda within the U.S. itself
Andy blames this guy for the deliberate destruction of the dollar as reserve currency:
Jared Bernstein, Biden’s top economic advisor, who apparently DOES NOT have a degree in economics (wikipedia: Bernstein graduated with a bachelor’s degreein music from the Manhattan School of Music where he studied double bass with Orin O’Brien. He also earned a Master of SocialWork from Hunter College as well as a DSW in social welfare from Columbia University school of socialwork.)
Remember Reaganomics? Freakonomics? Now there’s Bidenomics
https://www.npr.org/2023/06/28/1184831630/bidenomics-council-economic-advisers-bernstein-economy-unemployment-recession (“Biden’s top economic adviser Jared Bernstein about Bidenomics.”)
Back in 2014, Jared Bernstein wrote an op-ed on getting rid of the dollar’s reserve status:
Strong or not, the dollar’s reserve status hurts America: Jared Bernstein
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/strong-or-not–the-dollar-s-reserve-status-hurts-america–jared-bernstein-152943639.html
In late August, The New York Times ran a provocative op-ed by Jared Bernstein entitled “Dethrone King Dollar.”
Yes, here was a former White House economist — Vice President Joe Biden’s chief economist, no less — arguing that the dollar’s status as the world’s reserve currency is a “privilege…America can no longer afford.“
****
Biden is a puppet. We need to look behind the throne to see who is really running the show and responsible for the deliberate destruction of America.

Judge rules Rudy Giuliani has forfeited election defamation case
Excerpt:
What they’re saying: “This 57 page opinion on discovery—which would usually be no more than two or three pages—is a prime example of the weaponization of the justice system, where the process is the punishment,” Ted Goodman, political adviser to Giuliani, said in a statement.
“This decision should be reversed, as Mayor Giuliani is wrongly accused of not preserving electronic evidence that was seized and held by the FBI.”

Biden’s DOJ gave four years in jail to a man who burned down a police station during the BLM riots but 17 years to an Iraq War vet for tearing down a fence on January 6.
Cont reading…
That DC prosecutor Graves is incapable of delivering justice. He has prejudged every defendant before him as having taken part in an insurrection and uses that prejudgement to rule entirely differently compared to other cases of protest. The BLM protestors who torched cities, destroyed businesses and killed people are not only not held to a similar standard, they’re actually getting payoffs for having suffered at the hands of law enforcement. To this day, globull warming activist can falsely imprison random citizens, keeping them from going about their business and they aren’t stopped let alone arrested. Graves is exactly the kind of prosecutor who should be removed for abusing his office. What he is doing to people he doesn’t like because they’re Trump supporters is criminal. He’s destroying people’s lives because he’s a hater.

The government asked for 33 years, and he got sentenced to 17.
Make of that what you will.
There are no conspiracies, but there are no coincidences – and those two numbers crop up more frequently than random chance could ever produce.
Sorry, this was meant as a response to Troublemaker10 above
🙃
Yes, I caught the 33–kind of like a calling card.
But I was not aware of 17 coming up that often.
Came across this article on another site.

Florida school board forced to remove dozens of books after parents read ‘graphic’ passages aloud
Excerpt:
The board decided to remove the books in question because of a rule signed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in May that states parents “shall have the right to read passages from any material that is subject to an objection.”
Under HB 1069, if a school board denies parents the right to read passages considered “pornographic” or “harmful to minors,” the school district must discontinue the use of such materials.
During the Monday meeting at the Indian River County School Board, over 30 parents and community members successfully had the books removed when they were cut off from speaking at the podium.

Laura Loomer on focusing on attacking RINOs over attacking Democrats:
“Nah. The Republicans are the enemy.
Wake up. They are stalling impeachment. They LIED about releasing the J6 tapes. They LIED about ending funding for Ukraine. They LIED about defunding the 87,000 IRS agents and they are SITTING ON THEIR LAZY F****** ASSES AND DOING NOTHING TO HELP PRESIDENT TRUMP COMBAT THE INDICTMENTS AND WEAPONIZED GOVERNMENT!
I hate these morons.”
Didn’t they also talk about expunging Trump’s impeachment? In light of what’s come out about Biden and Ukraine the 1st impeachment should be expunged immediately.

That was entirely LOVELY… thank you. Yes he did that so well.
THANK YOU for posting that well done insight into the joy of motorcycling. I will watch more of his videos!
Anyone looking for more of the same might try watching a Canadian movie about a school teacher who buys a Norton 850 Commando and heads off across Canada upon learning he has stage 4 cancer. A dark comedy that’s ultimately a joy.

A Polish Aid Worker in Ukraine: “They have no one left to fight!”
Sławomir Wysocki – a Pole who regularly goes to Ukraine to help, tells how tragic the situation is there. – The human losses are huge. Western equipment burns like matches. It is much worse than is commonly portrayed, he says.
Sławomir Wysocki – a Pole who regularly travels to Ukraine, where he provides soldiers with equipment necessary on the front line, went with members of the “Russian Pursuit” organization to Avdiivka – a city in the eastern part of Ukraine, in the Donetsk region. In an interview with Wirtualna Polska, he says that “the situation was gruesome”
“There is no success there”
And he emphasizes that the mood in eastern Ukraine, in Donbass, is bad. – In the spring, at the beginning of summer, they hoped that they would be able to carry out an effective offensive, that they would be able to drive the Russians away. However, there are no successes there. For months, they only penetrated the enemy’s first line of defense – estimates Wysocki.
– Human losses on the Ukrainian side are huge. Western equipment burns like matches. It is much worse than is commonly portrayed.
There are over two thousand graves in Kharkov. In addition, there are corpses that have not been found, that have been torn apart in the trenches or are buried in cellars in Bakhmut. These losses can no longer be hidden. Just go and count the graves in Ukrainian cemeteries. Soldiers also see it – says the interlocutor of Wirtualna Polska.
“The Russian army has already learned everything and has caught up with everything”
The last time I spoke with Sławomir Wysocki was at the end of July . Today, a Pole tells me directly: – Two months ago, I was full of optimism about Kupiańska. At the moment, it still manages to hold positions. How long? I don’t know. It seems that the Russians are doing everything to reach Kupiansk, where they will take their positions for the spring offensive , predicts the interlocutor of Wirtualna Polska.
How do the Ukrainians fighting on the front relate to the Russian defense system? “They’re terrified,” Vysotsky says shortly. – They know that the Russian army has already learned everything and has caught up with everything, they are thoroughly prepared. The Russians have very good engineer troops. The defense system was built by construction companies. It wasn’t the peasant who waved the shovel around to build the trench. Companies came, poured concrete, made fortifications in the style of the Maginot Line. And there are three or four of these lines – he adds vividly.
– Ukrainians say that there are five mines on one square meter. You can’t put your foot down without one of them exploding.
“They have no one to fight”
Due to such a difficult situation at the front, with more and more victims, are they still willing to defend their homeland? – There are no takers. They are even found in the streets. In Lviv, there are “round-ups” outside the city center, people are taken from the construction site, people enter pubs, where the working class comes to drink beer and people are “gathered” – he says .
“Ukrainians are losing the flower of their society”
In his opinion, Vladimir Putin loses “plebs” in the war. – He sends there the poorest, uneducated, people who want to earn money. And Ukrainians are losing the flower of their society. These are losses as in the Warsaw Uprising – he adds vividly. And he emphasizes: – The most experienced people die, including those who fought in 2014. Those without experience spent four hours in Bachmut in the spring.
The Russians are waiting for winter to start destroying Ukraine’s critical infrastructure again. They are hoping that after a mild winter last year, a harsh one will come this year. And that they will be able to finish off Ukraine in such a way that in the spring they will reach Kiev and force Ukraine to “peace”, predicts Vysotsky.
