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 canβt be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly wonβt be done. The Foundersβ 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…

India’s position here is interesting, given their current relations. I suspect they’ll work out their complex differences… because Joe Biden sucks.
India has major volatile Sunni-Sufi Islamic Republics on its Eastern and Western Border. One of them (Pakistan) is a major US Client with Nuclear Weapons, overrun with Imam Obama’s friends, the Taliban.
Recently both have stirred the Islamic Minority in India and the US has gone to great lengths to insult the Indians.
One other factor that cannot be discounted, Russia (USSR) and India have been friends fora very long time. Russia (USSR) has a pretty good track record of working with loyal friends no matter who sits on the throne in the Kremlin.
Being a friend of Russia will help work out major difference with China, especially if the US and G7 continue on their current path.

Biden Confidant: Start Firing People or Pack Your Bags
By Joseph Simonson

Within in that article, the argument again (from biden’s voices) is that “He’s not too old for a second term.”
The deflection is endless. His dementia is an issue. His anti-American thinking is an issue. But they keep pretending it’s because people say he’s too old, and they get away with it.
tripling of german natural gas prizes in view (are already very heigh)
Notice that “commonsense” has somehow become a word? An adjective, in fact.
I have observed the left denies it exists. Leftists aren’t political. They are just applying science and common sense to the problems of society.
This is very old. Communism has used this non argument since it was conceived. “Scientific materialism” is one of the terms it used to describe its policies. Naturally, objecting to leftist policy automatically reduces to “denying science” or common sense. Never political disagreement.
Harrison Bergeron burst into the living rooms of the anesthetized country by bursting into the networks….but then we know what Diana Moon Glampers did to him.
Still, what a great fantasy–a takeover of the CBS news one night.
That was the most polite “F*ck you” I have ever seen!
βYes, Bidden is hiding his plan to rig the 2020 electionβ An article by Mollie Hemingway in the Federalist is pretty scary. It outlines the Biden administrationβs plan to move government organizations into political activism among other things to control locations.
Most of us realize the 2020 election was corrupt and the election was stolen from President Trump. What Mollie Hemingway outlines is more direct government involvement along with all the other things that happened in 2020.
Somehow national attention of what is happening must occur. Not sure how to get national media attention, but it needs to start now. Maybe we start flooding our congress with concerns and demand action to defund these agencies. Not holding my breath with our current leadership, McConnell and McCarthy showing any interest or concern.
βBidden is hiding his plan to rig the 2020 election.β ? Biden couldnβt plan what shoes to wearβ¦
Give me a break. No matter if Biden is doing himself or someone in his administration is planning or doing it makes no difference. Itβs happening. Just look at the DOJ and FBI attacking political opponents.
It’s actually Susan Rice–you know, his puppet master.
It’s high time PDJT and anybody else who talks about the 2020 elections quit calling it the Stolen Election and start calling it what it was: The Fraudulent Election. Mail in voter fraud, Dominion voting machine fraud, ballot harvesting fraud.
Start getting the word fraud into the minds and memes. This is what we should have been doing from the start. FRAUD. Eventually that will seep in. And when the minions of the communist, racist democrats AKA the Press have to start defending against that claim, it will get even more air time as they try to deflect from the word FRAUD.
I would call it a TREASONOUS COUP, since our Constitutional right to the peaceful transition of power via fair elections was hopelessly corrupted. But what do I know?
I call it the counterfeit election.
Apologies if this is a repeat but is worth repeating. The Biden regime, aka swamp, have been weaponizing many agencies within the federal government, of which there are over 600, to rig the 2022 elections to ensure dems come out on top. None other than Susan Rice is running the mob. Agencies are refusing to respond to FOIA’s and curious republicans. Also conveniently forgetting there is such thing as the Hatch Act. Of course the republicans are threatening to write letters and do something sometime if those pesky dems don’t quit rigging the elections. Repubs and RNC better wake up and hire some lawyers and investigators. Basically Biden has the federal government doing for 2022 and beyond what Zuckerbucks accomplished in 2016 and basically federalizing elections.

Gee. It takes an uber leftwing billionaire to run an online pharmacy at lower prices than what the government offers?
15 years ago, I was in a hospital intensive care ward visiting my mother and I was watching an automatic billing tab updating every time something happened. A nurse came by with a paper cup and a single standard Tylenol tablet. Cost: $10.00 for that one tablet. 15 years ago.
It doesn’t take a billionaire to figure out low prices. All it takes is a distribution channel free of government administration.
Anything outside of government health subsidies costs less. Cosmetic surgery, cosmetic orthodontics, Lasik eye surgery are all examples of health care with no government subsidy or administration. All have seen dramatically lower costs over time vs the rest of health care. All have seen dramatic improvements in technology and results.
We could slash hospital and medical costs by huge amounts by removing government regulations and administration. Fraud (including malpractice) would still need to be addressed but that should be within the criminal system.
TORT reform Healthcare was destroyed by Obamacare. Again sold out by GOP.
TIME Magazine did an excellent cover story expose in 2013, itemizing in depth about why and how medical costs are so jacked up. I’m sure that with Obamacare, as well as expecting people with health insurance to pay for all those who don’t pay anything (illegal aliens, homeless, etc.) the padding has only gotten worse…

Yesterday, Project Veritas released a video showing the campaign manager for Utah congressman John Curtiss confirming that he is just a leftist who lies to his voters. The issue was abortion but show me a pro abortion politician and I’ll show you a leftist.
Today, PV released a second video. Utah again but this time GOP senate candidate Becky Edwards doing the exact same thing. Lying straight into the faces of the voters while admitting she will do all she can to protect abortions in Utah.
We have seen news articles elsewhere that the left runs seminars and consultancies for leftists to run in GOP primaries. We know Raffensperger is a product of this. If you have an industry big enough for seminars and consultants, this practice must be nationwide and extensive. Too much to be unknown for the GOP. And yet the GOP hasn’t even said anything about it. Indeed, the GOP is most likely connected with it.
So when a RINO lies to you and you know they are lying to you and yet you keep voting for them, who is victimizing you more? The RINO or yourself? You can’t reform the GOP. You can destroy it but you can’t reform it. The only way to “reform” the GOP is to practice total intolerance for RINOs. Only from the ashes of the GOP can you actually “reform” it.

The only thing not discussed by the Unselects, in any way, shape, or form, is the irrefutable evidence of massive and totally pervasive ELECTION FRAUD & IRREGULARITIES which took place during the 2020 Presidential Election. They refuse to go there, they want it all CANCELED, because it would be IMPOSSIBLE for the Unselect Committee to refute or challenge that which would be put before them, or the American Public.

DHS is aware of Domestic Terrorists and their plots. Good to know.

-snip-
“Terroristic threatening usually involves the communication and intent to engage in terrorizing another person through words or deeds which can lead to other actions such as an evacuation of a location, inconvenience and other complications. The specific purpose of these actions is to instill terror in the victims through the actions or words of the perpetrator.
The Definition of Terroristic Threatening
*The definition of the actions and intent behind terroristic threatening can involve either property or a person.* There is a real intent to instill terror in the victim. There is a reckless disregard about the person affected and how the terror can cause trauma or even injury. The person behind the attack could recklessly endanger someone else, harass, stalk or intimidate the target. Criminal mischief is another connection to these crimes. The definition usually involves a threat with criminal violence and a very real emotional trauma of terror with the intent to instill this terror in the victim because of the actions of the perpetrator at the time.”
Terroristic Threatening – The Legal Definition – HG.org
Could DHS be announcing their own plans?
Lol. The DHS most likely is preparing their flying monkeys and providing the necessary weapons and tools for destruction.

The Gov. is throwing around a lot of money. 50 million in WV, and you can make nearly 80,000 and still get assistance.
CHARLESTON (WVDN) β A new program is working to help West Virginia homeowners stay afloat in these uncertain times. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, many people have faced incredible financial hardships. Lost jobs, delayed unemployment funds, and various other situations have all played a part in causing issues. However, the West Virginia Homeowners Rescue Program is here to help.
Program manager Jessica Greathouse described the program by saying, βItβs a new program born out of the American Rescue Plan that provided each of the 50 states and territories with money for housing stability to help people who have had a COVID hardship, get caught up on their rent and utility payments. West Virginia has $50 million to spend to help West Virginia homeowners keep their houses which then lends to housing stability.β

The mass media is so bad, Iβd almost like there to be some type of licensing in order to

Paul Pelosi was not only driving drunk, he was TEN TIMES OVER THE LIMIT !!!
0.82 % blood alcohol content (blood test)
0.08 % is the legal limit
He was stumbling drunk, maybe even fall-down drunk
House Speaker Nancy Pelosiβs Husband Paul Officially Charged by Napa County DA β Faces Up to 5 Years in Jail
At the scene of the accident, Pelosi was found to have been over the legal blood alcohol limit. He was arrested on two misdemeanor counts of driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol content level of 0.08 or higher.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/pelosi.webp
I couldn’t even find 0.8 % on any of the symptoms web pages
closest I could see top out at 0.4 % … he’s lucky he’s a big guy or he might not be walking around anymore
0.30 BAC: Total drunken stupor. Itβs no longer just passing out. You are lapsing in and out of consciousness. Suddenly passing out and being unresponsive (unable to be awoken) is seriously possible. You will be entirely disoriented with little understanding of where you are. This is not yet certain blood alcohol level death, but it may be necessary to get someone to a hospital. Bladder function can fail. So can heart rate.
0.35 BAC: Reasonable coma risk. Being this drunk is like being under surgical anesthetic. And since surgery is a risk, imagine the risk of blood alcohol level death.
0.40+ BAC: Possible death. Your heart could stop. You may stop breathing. This is a coma level drunk. Blood alcohol level death is almost guaranteed.
https://www.idrivesafely.com/defensive-driving/trending/blood-alcohol-level-deaths-what-you-need-know
… this has to be why police won’t release any on-scene footage, body-cam footage
I’d wager that on camera he could barely – if at all – stay on his feet
Probably kept continually falling down
Only thing keeping him up was the car seat (when he was in the car)
Why did it take that long to get that blood alcohol content? It was reported as if It was a minor DUI! Thatβs almost alcohol poisoning level? Too bad there no video of that politically connected drunk getting arrested but typical in a banana republic!
I think it’s a badly written article
It leads off by saying a blood test came back with the 0.82 % result
“The blood sample was tested at 0.82% when he was arrested”
Towards the bottom it says police gave him a breathalyzer after 4 hours
“Police waited more than 4 hours to utilize a breathalyzer on Pelosi, in which time his blood alcohol content likely was reduced.”
I’d consider that a non-sequitur … ‘it does not follow’ … the two statements are unrelated
I read it as 2 measurements – one blood, one breathalyzer – … and it doesn’t state that the blood test was after 4 hours, may well have been taken earlier than that
Ah – the article is in 2 parts, hence the schizophrenia
top part talks about the blood test
bottom part cites previous reporting and contains the breathalyzer statement
“As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier β According to the police report, Pelosi pulled out onto S-29 to cross it …”
It’s possible they waited so long to give the test for an easy out at trial. A good lawyer, and he’ll have one, can quite easily argue that at the time of arrest he was not over the limit and that the BA reading was taken as the level in his blood was going up.
The only valid way to counter that argument is to to what we called a “legal BA” and that entailed 3 blood samples taken a certain time apart (I think 30 minutes apart) so the lab people could testify to the level at the time of the stop. It was all pretty complicated but was used on all fatalities and serious injury DUI crashes.
You watch. He’ll plea to a lesser offense, like reckless driving, and they will drop the DUI because of the time lapse in giving the breathalyzer test.
The one and only time that I was terrified by an undoubtedly-drunk driver was when I looked in my rear view mirror while driving along the somewhat-mountain road leading back to my house, and I suddenly realized to my horror that the car which was very-rapidly accelerating towards me was on the wrong side of the road.
I sped up as much as I could to outrun him, but what exactly were my options now? This is a twisty road, and it is well after dark . . .
Fortunately, the driver then made a turn onto a side-road, and I never looked back to see if he actually made it. (I have not yet since seen “a white cross” at this intersection, however … although I have seen white crosses at improbable places.)
So, Paul: “Suck-it-up. Maybe those cops saved your miserable life.”
Time to learn the “tough life lesson” that every other drunk learns in a jail cell …
… much better than the “tougher life lesson” learned by someone who’s about to experience prison time for having killed somebody. (Somebody like me?)
Pelosi was in a driving accident which killed his brother as a teenager. He has not learned a thing.
Iβve read your post several times, Mike, trying to come to terms with what you wrote.
I pray I misunderstoodβ¦.but if I havenβt, my heart goes out to you.
Please update us at some point so we can support you in prayer.
During my LEO career I made well over 100 DUI arrests. The worst I encountered was a o.44% and at that level it was required they go to the hospital for alcohol poisoning observation.
The guy was so drunk, he could not stand up to do the field test.
I cannot fathom a 0.82% test result. He is lucky to be alive at that level. I don’t care how big the guy is.
Thx, bob
I was trying to wade through the press stories but without really knowing the topic
Nice to hear from you with direct experience
Yeah, at 0.82 I’d expect his lawyers to claim bad lab result, unreasonably high
It’d be informative to know the breathalyzer result, even if 4 hours late

Christian patriot based in Washington state, was the one of the latest victims of βred flagβ anarcho-tyranny
Leftists were particularly enraged by one of Dinsmoorβs Gab posts, in which he suggested that he would protest a βPride Paradeβ
The government sent officers from seven law enforcement agencies, responders from two federal agencies, multiple armored vehicles, a negotiating team, and a police helicopter, to arrest Tyler.

Interesting. As best I can tell this one is more about 1A than 2A since Dinsmoor has been charged with a hate crime. Pertinent Washington State Hate Crime Statute:
-snip-
“RCW 9A.36.080 Hate crime offenseβDefinition and criminal penalty.
(1) A person is guilty of a hate crime offense if he or she maliciously and intentionally commits one of the following acts because of his or her perception of the victim’s race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, or mental, physical, or sensory disability:
-snip-
(c) Threatens a specific person or group of persons and places that person, or members of the specific group of persons, in reasonable fear of harm to person or property. The fear must be a fear that a reasonable person would have under all the circumstances. For purposes of this section, a “reasonable person” is a reasonable person who is a member of the victim’s race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, gender, or sexual orientation, or who has the same gender expression or identity, or the same mental, physical, or sensory disability as the victim. Words alone do not constitute a hate crime offense unless the context or circumstances surrounding the words indicate the words are a threat. Threatening words do not constitute a hate crime offense if it is apparent to the victim that the person does not have the ability to carry out the threat.”
Revised Code of Washington Β§ 9A.36.080 (2019) – Hate crime offenseβDefinition and criminal penalty. :: 2019 Revised Code of Washington :: US Codes and Statutes :: US Law :: Justia
Although the authorities emphasized the accused’s ownership of firearms, from what I can see the accused didn’t threaten anyone with violence (or anything else) and made a point to go back with an addendum to make it plain he wouldn’t go to the Pride Parade b/c he doesn’t want to be around gay people, but if he would have wanted to actually go he would have handed out fliers. I only read the one Gab post that seems to have cause the brouhaha, so there may be more.

Can the US govt arbitrarily order the shutting down of the nicotine delivery devices – those Juul things? Am reminded of the 1971 comedy Cold Turkey where the whole town tried to quit smoking, are those individuals that use those devices now going to have nicotine fits?
People are on enough of an edge already, what is this going to do to them?
While it reads like juvenile humor, it’s all true & probably needs said before any event! π
It starts with the small things, like this. Esmeralda County, Nevada, the least populated county in the State, is going to hand count the recent primary votes due to its residents distrust of the mail-in and machine vote counting devices. They are following a small county in New Mexico’s lead.
Watch this grow as more small counties follow suit, kick up the dust, make decisions to verify the truth of the votes and pretty soon the larger county residents will start demanding their votes be verified too.

βWe respectfully disagree with the Courtβs conclusion that the Second Amendment forbids New Yorkβs reasonable requirement that individuals seeking to carry a concealed handgun must show that they need to do so for self-defense. The Department of Justice remains committed to saving innocent lives by enforcing and defending federal firearms laws, partnering with state, local and tribal authorities and using all legally available tools to tackle the epidemic of gun violence plaguing our communities.β

So are they saying they’re going to ignore the ruling?
Very dangerous words.
I would think that having more people with carry permits would be saving innocent lives and not the opposite. That is some serious doublethink they have going there.
PA politics….
I voted for Kathy Barnette in the primary, but will support Oz in the General. I don’t expect him to be a great Senator, but he would be much better than Fedderman.
I am not upset at changes he made to his campaign webpage. I have been following him on Twitter. He has made two major strategy changes. First, he is thanking PA voters. Secondly, he has shifted attacks to Fedderman and has been effectively connecting Fedderman to Biden on policy.
Not a bad move. He already has Republican support (including most Trump supporters). He is trying to attract support from democrats and independents (especially those who disapprove of Biden).
I haven’t seen anything to indicate he has turned against Trump or the many AF/Maga issues he supported in the past. He’s not maga. I am only saying he will be with us some of the time, as where Fedderman will be against us all the time.
Whatever he has been doing seems to be working because a few weeks ago polling showed Oz about 9 points behind. A few days ago it was reduced to 6, and the most recent has him behind by only 4. He’s been gaining ground.

The claim @DrOz “removed Trump from his website” is a lot to do about of nothing.
Camps routinely change sites to meet needs/push MSG. Trump endorsement is showcased on the new endorsement page (see “2” in url).
The image tags for social can be seen.
2/. In other words, certain headlines suggest by making slight changes to the site, it’s to be construed as
@DrOz “dropping” America First/Trump from his platform (even though they created a new showcase for it).
I’m making a ruling on this. It’s a totally bogus insinuation.

Replying to you here, as I just saw your comment to my comment re: write-in voting.
It is good to hear that Barnett is backing Oz. That unity should not be undermined.
I agree that a write-in campaign should only be done with a person who agrees to throwing their name in the ring. My point is more to those, such as in Georgia, who just NEED another choice than the (R) and (D) selections.
Why not encourage a single βnameβ in each of the governorβs and SoS races to so agree, and unify in writing -in said names, vs. doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results . . .
Yeah, GA is a mess. I don’t understand what is going on there at all. Something isn’t right though.
Read Emerald Robinson, she’s been following that.
Yee-haw!
