Tucker Carlson traveled to Argentina to review the outcomes of socialist policy upon the working class. The economic situation in Argentina is increasingly desperate as hyperinflation is destroying the ability of people to afford common and essential products.
During his visit he interviewed a libertarian candidate who has gained massive popularity. Javier Milei is running for office in the next presidential election and currently has the largest voting bloc of support. WATCH:
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.”
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †
No matter how much time passes since that day on August 5th, 2015, when it became crystal clear that Megyn Kelly was working with Fox News VP of Political content, Bill Sammon, to construct the targeted hit against Donald Trump, I will not forget it. Bill Sammon and Rupert Murdoch were working to elevate Marco Rubio. Sammon’s daughter Brooke, was Rubio’s campaign communications director. Yet, it is part of Kelly’s current brand to stand back and pearl clutch at journalists with agendas. The sanctimony reeks from her eyes, her face, her wherever.
I will not forget it, because CTH was the only voice calling out two days earlier that it was going to happen. I will also not forget it, because Megyn Kelly showed the true nature of her character and then later took the $15 million from Rupert Murdoch (book deal) as payment for the hit job. Unfortunately, people have really short memories – and somehow permit the MeAgain Kellys of the world to pretend they have evolved into a better moral character. The one positive thought about an otherwise repugnant woman, is that she subjected herself to the COVID vaccine.
That said, here’s President Donald Trump giving her his time and attention. WATCH:
.Megyn Kelly is joined by former President Donald Trump to talk about the Biden impeachment inquiry, what we’re learning now about the potential for then-VP Biden corruption that Trump tried to bring up at the debate, whether Biden is too old to be president, birthright citizenship and the immigration crisis in America, why he didn’t fire Dr. Fauci, how Biden and DeSantis handled COVID, the success or failure of Operation Warp Speed and COVID vaccines, not getting enough credit for what did during the beginning of the pandemic, his stance on trans rights and how it’s evolved, his friendship with Caitlyn Jenner (and previously Bruce), trans in the military, whether he’d ban puberty blockers for kids, the details of his classified documents case and the Presidential Records Act, why he didn’t turn over documents after the subpoena, Hillary Clinton and the double standard, if he’s angry about the prosecutions, the real story behind the “DeSanctimonious” Ron DeSantis nickname, why he values loyalty above so much else, how Melania and Barron are doing, the personality traits about Melania that the media doesn’t understand, why he’s running for president and facing jail time instead of enjoying retirement, the way this country can come together, that big debate moment between Trump and Megyn, and more.
Despite the best efforts of Fox News and Rupert Murdoch, their own pollster Daron Shaw duplicates an identical polling outcome from the most recent three. [Poll Data Here]
President Trump is growing his support base, and Ron DeSantis is losing even more ground.
It’s important to keep in mind that Fox News has been desperately trying to prop up the campaign of Ron DeSantis, giving him soft interviews and pushing his infomercials every week. Yet even Rupert Murdoch is now having to admit DeSantis just doesn’t have the support of the base Republican voters.
FOX NEWS – Three weeks after the first Republican presidential primary debate, the latest Fox News survey finds Donald Trump has increased both his lead in the race and his strength of support.
Sixty percent of Republican primary voters back Trump in the primary race, up from 53% in the Fox News pre-debate August survey. […] At 13% support, Ron DeSantis sees a downtick of 3 points since the debate, while Vivek Ramaswamy holds steady at 11%. Next is Nikki Haley with 5%, Mike Pence and Tim Scott at 3% each, and Chris Christie at 2%. All remaining candidates receive 1% or less. (more)
BIG SMILE – The RNC is in a very weak position ahead of the September 27th Fox Business News debate at the Reagan Library. President Trump has already said he will not be in attendance, and the remaining candidates look silly as they prepare for a debate with zero relevance to the voters.
The changing geopolitical dynamics of the world appear to be weighing heavily on the mind of Volodymyr Zelenskyy as he watches the global influence of his western allied membership diminish.
With BRICS and non-western nations now walking through the wonderland of enhanced economic opportunity, and with Russia finding friendships outside the manipulations of the Western Alliance and NATO, and with US taxpayers getting increasingly hostile about the money we are sending to fuel the indulgent lifestyles of Ukranian politicians, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is scratching his puzzler and trying to figure out how best to position himself for more global money.
I will say the published effort below appears doomed from the outset, as Africa, Asia and Latin America are likely to laugh at the pale faced guy who wears a UPS uniform. Outside the boundaries of the western alliance, Zelenskyy is the Bud Light of geopolitics.
New York – Call it Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s “special diplomatic operation.”
The Ukrainian president plans to show up in person at the United Nations’ annual gathering of world leaders next week. And he has a mission: Use one-on-one charm to convince an array of hesitant countries to back Kyiv against Russia.
Zelenskyy hopes to make his case both in a speech to the U.N. General Assembly and in a blizzard of meetings with fellow leaders, according to a senior Ukrainian government official familiar with the planning.
Justice Alito is going to allow the Biden Administration to justify why they should be allowed to control all the content on social media platforms and coordinate with the social media companies to remove opinion & information against their interests. This should be interesting. 😂🤣😂
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday temporarily blocked a lower court ruling that would place restrictions on the Biden administration’s contact with social media companies.
The brief order issued by conservative Justice Samuel Alito came less than two hours after the Justice Department asked the Supreme Court to step in.
It gives the court more time to consider what next steps to take before deciding whether to grant the administration’s request. In the meantime, the lower court ruling will remain on hold until midnight on Sept. 22.
It’s a Washington Post-Monmouth poll {DATA HERE} of South Carolina. However, keep in mind that Ron DeSantis has spent a lot of time in the Palmetto State and was very confident of his ability there.
The poll found that 46 percent of potential Republican primary voters in South Carolina support President Trump while the state’s former governor, Nikki Haley, stands in second place at 18 percent. Ten percent support Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) and 9 percent back Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. {media report}
Three days ago, the DOJ filed a motion in court to quietly drop the charges against former partner of Michael Flynn, Bijan Rafiekian {DOJ pdf Link}. The initial case was created by the Muller team (Weissman) and encompassed the issue of violations to the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA). After one failed attempt at prosecution, the Mueller team turned the case over to the DOJ who were going to refile the charges. {Backstory Here} Instead, as noted, the DOJ recently dropped the case.
Why does this matter?
Hunter Biden worked as a foreign agent for Ukraine and Chinese interests. Hunter Biden never registered under U.S. laws which require foreign agent registration to represent the interests of a foreign government or entity. This is the same accusation that loomed over Bijan Rafiekian. The DOJ dropped the case against Rafiekian, because they will not be charging Hunter Biden for FARA violations. The DOJ does not want you to notice the timing.
Today, a federal grand jury indicted Hunter Biden for federal firearm violations. [4-page pdf HERE] This will be the extent of the criminal charges filed against Hunter Biden. Everything else will be swept under the rug. Biden will receive a soft sentence.
The larger DC narrative will now shift to Second Amendment issues, and the defense will argue the Second Amendment doesn’t disqualify drug users. This will put the discussion on a host of Second Amendment topics, which the Biden administration will then seek to use as they advance the 2024 election narrative, and simultaneously require more rules, laws, restrictions and legislation about firearms.
Washington DC – President Joe Biden’s son is under indictment.
On Thursday, a Delaware grand jury indicted Hunter Biden on three gun-related charges, including illegally owning a firearm as a drug user and lying on a form when he allegedly bought the gun.
