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.

Today, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit reversed a district-court ruling that was blocking enforcement of a Tennessee law protecting children from highly sexualized “drag shows.”
We proudly filed an amicus brief in this case.
BIG WIN FOR TENNESSEE!
That is fantastic news. It’s really important for lawyers on our side to pursue cases like this. To a sensible person, this isn’t even a close call, but the courts are full of leftists.
JUST IN: The Court granted our emergency motion to BLOCK Joe Biden’s entire illegal student loan plan, which would have saddled working Americans with half-a-trillion dollars in Ivy League debt.
HUGE win for every American who still believes in paying their own way.

Bongino says counter-sniper shot through 9 inch window from 400 yards. Soooo SS will station someone at 400 yards but not on the roof? A 9 inch window? I think Dan is being fed BS.
.
Is the window one made of glass and installed in a building wall OR are they meaning a 9 inch space between tree trunks or branches that the sniper had to place his shot through on it’s way to the assassin’s grey matter?
They should have taken the shot BEFORE the shooter discharged a weapon… they knew he was armed with a rifle and in position to fire. Dan going on about 11 seconds? Meh. They had more time than that and DJT still should have never been allowed on that stage.
I think the question is: who placed that overwatch?
In terms of a shot window, we recently saw video of a perp taken out with a head shot through a computer monitor. He had a hostage in a choke hold with, if I recall correctly, a knife to her throat.
Sorry I don’t have a link.
The picture just gets worse for those behind the security lapses on saturday.
Is the IC blwsing smoke up Dan Bongino’s skirt so he spreads fog-of-war propaganda?… making them look so great at what they do; he trusts them apparently, doesn’t seem to be questioning what they tell him – so are they using him???

The man installed in the White House thanks to illegal voting using COVID as an excuse—now has COVID.
That same man who is primarily responsible for perpetuating the January 6 “insurrection” narrative is now the target of an intraparty coup.
The same Democratic Party deviants who colluded behind the scenes to destroy Donald Trump’s chances of reelection in 2020 are privately and publicly begging their own deviant leader not to destroy the party’s chances to keep the White House and Senate and regain the House of Representatives.
The same major news organizations involved in a “shadow campaign” to put Biden in the White House are conducting their own not-so-shadow campaign to take Biden off the presidential ballot.
A NeverTrump Republican who converted to MAGA doctrine over the past few years is Donald Trump’s running mate, representing another lethal blow to neocon establishment Republicanism that neocon establishment Republicans thought would take over the GOP after 2020.
Speaking of, the wife of one of NeverTrump’s most unhinged figures, one who has regularly accused Trump of being a foreign asset for the better part of a decade—was just arrested for being a foreign asset.
The new owner of the social media platform that in 2020 worked with the FBI and other Big Tech titans to silence criticism of early and absentee voting as well as the content of Hunter Biden’s laptop is now trolling Biden and Democrats on the site formerly known as Twitter while pledging to spend $45 million a month until Election Day to play by the Democrats’ rules related to early and absentee voting.
And the man nearly everyone had written off as politically dead after the events of January 6 is ascendant and headed for a landslide victory after surviving a near-death experience on July 13.That’s called karma, bitches.

“They Lie and People Die”: Carnegie Mellon Professor Claims Trump Assassination Attempt was “Staged”
(By Jonathan Turley)
Excerpt:
So these and other faculty believe that Trump enlisted a kid who was thrown out of his high school shooting club as a bad shot to wing him at 130 yards from a sloped position. The conspiracists also decided to kill or wound some supporters to make the staging look real. In our age of rage, this all makes sense to these professors.
I agree with Professor Anya that such political statements are protected speech. However, her unhinged and hateful commentary exposes the radicalism of many faculty in higher education today.

College campuses are filled with real hate and an evil anger…not just political indoctrination.
They’re radicalized beyond reason.
The Death Cults GOAL when radicalizing someone is to turn them into an NPC ie a skin suit wearing agile zombie who is “beyond reason” and beyond appeals to a heart that was removed long ago.
CS Lewis refers to them as heartless “men without chests”.
Is it just a coincidence that the Death Cult is trying to make all things Aztec chique again?
Looking good but no time to get overconfident. Keep the peddle to the metal on voter registrations, outreach, and emphasis on early voting…
The state of WA should be recolored so that there’s a blue square around King and Pierce Counties, and then all the rest of the state is red.
If RFK Jr, Stein & Cornell West are on WAs ballot PLUS Trump supporters VOTE rather than being black pilled passives, then PDJT definitely could win WAs electoral college votes.
Personally my goal is to WIN the Electoral College and Popular Vote.
Consequently, ALL VOTES MATTER!!!

They hate seeing themselves mirrored, they recognize how Truly vile they are;
they hate having their own words repeated back to them (Libs of TikTok style);
they detest seeing their innate flaws, inadequacies, failures, & shortcomings magnified and amplified in direct Sunlight.
no lying about them necessary.
More Please.
It’s normal for that to happen. The wealthy want a seat at the table and back candidates they think can win. Musk and Thiel are on our side on some key issues. Are they perfect? Probably not. But it’s better having them on board than having them back Biden. We’re never going to have a perfect situation or candidate and be able to do every single thing we want.
“Are they perfect?”
Hopefully NOT! 😘
If they were “perfect” they wouldn’t be real.
I prefer considering a persons ability to pitch in and help out when survival is on the line to spending what may be my last PRESENT on potentially Fatal Distractions and Feels.

FWIW:
“The wealthy” ==
an individuality and humanity erasing framing.
it instead uses the NWO death cult sects collectivist abstract borg framing
like “MAGA movement” ie “magats”.
Btw ” the wealthy” includes President Trump, the person who copyrighted the term MAGA to describe the coalition he needed in order to turn his Save Americas Constitutional Republic Renovation Plans into a complected MAGA Project Reality.

‘Today it is reported there were 4 sniper teams, and two of them fired weapons
There were four counter-sniper teams stationed around the rally, according to the Secret Service – two from the agency and two provided by local law enforcement.
Of the four teams, two opened fire, one local and one from the Service. A federal sharpshooter fatally struck the gunman seconds after the gunfire erupted”.
The forensic scientist who said there were bullets from three different weapons/distances was correct.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/07/trump-assassination-attempt-federal-snipers-overlooked-rooftop-sniper/
“What one cannot tell from that picture is that, on the other side, there are two windows that almost perfectly overlook the location where federal authorities claim the body of Thomas Crooks was found.
It doesn’t explain how these trained snipers did not notice Crooks on the roof when there are multiple windows that would have made it obvious where he was.
A reader sent in this image, which shows both the open window from the sniper location on the second floor, and the body of the alleged sniper on the roof with the rifle nearby.
You can see the windows in this photo of the Gateway Pundit’s drone flight over the Trump Assassination crime scene.”
The alleged sniper was crawling around on the roof for a half hour as people were screaming that there was a sniper on the roof. The sniper team inside the building on the second floor, had to have heard their screams and their pleas. During this time they did nothing to stop the sniper on the roof who was just forty feet away from multiple windows where they would have seen him.
The federal narrative around the Butler, PA Trump Rally shooting has been falling apart hour-by-hour since Saturday.
Have they told the truth at all yet? I saw a pic this morning with a blood-free roof . The body of the pets, and the gun lying below him on the roof and his feet.
I am still confused, and like Woo, why are his clothes different? That tin roof should have been HOT against bare legs. Why did he take off the long pants? Such a patsy.
MSNBC says that Biden recovering from Covid is the same as Trump surviving the bullet of an assassin. Ok Jen.
Wellllllll. Maybe……..slightly………if the powers that be exposed him to the virus hoping it would kill him.
It’s the new talking point. I saw Joyless Reid use it first.
That is how stupid their audience is.
Even stupid people can be evil.
Yesterday I was in a position where I could overhear three women, all in their early to mid 20s, discussing the assassination attempt against Trump. I was trying to ignore it out of simple politeness. Then they started trying to remember which President won like all the states.

8th Circuit Appeals Court just blocked Joe Biden’s student loan debt forgiveness plan calling it unconstitutional.
The court appears to have issued a broader ruling than the previous Missouri court thereby blocking ALL parts of Biden’s student loan debt forgiveness programs.
Cont…
WAIT! What about those who already have received their forgiveness letters?
The officer who confronted Thomas Matthew Crooks on the roof radioed a “blanket tactical channel” that there was “an individual on the roof with a weapon” before the assassination attempt on President Trump.
Why wasn’t President Trump immediately evacuated?
Was the Secret Service listening to this “blanket tactical channel”?
Two officers went to the lowest point of the building. One officer boosted the other high enough to reach the roof, where he saw the shooter with a weapon.
Crooks turned and pointed his weapon at the officer, who then ducked and fell off the roof.
“The boosting officer and the officer that fell were both on the radio indicating that there was an individual on the roof that did, in fact, have a weapon.”
“There was a blanket tactical channel being used. Everyone who was on that tactical channel heard it.”
How much time was there between that radio communication and the gun being fired at President Trump?
It’s bad enough that the Secret Service didn’t put anyone on the most obvious roof 150 yards away.
But after two police officers radioed in that there was a guy on the roof with a gun, why wasn’t President Trump immediately evacuated?
I’m surprised this man was invited to attend.
It’s people like Kemp, Vos, Kasich and so on that fit the “deplorable” moniker.

The meeting took place on Tuesday at the former president’s hotel in Milwaukee, the source said.

I’d like to see him as a kingmaker of sorts for the GOP, someone who’ll screen candidates for their America first bona fides and get involved at the state party level.
This is the first thing I have seen about the attempt to assassinated President Trump that makes sense.
If true this is premeditated MURDER!

A recent report by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) warns of an increased risk that U.S. aid intended for Afghanistan could fall into the hands of the Taliban.
A new report from the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) reveals that at least $293 million in aid distributed by the State Department between March and November 2022 is at an increased risk of being diverted to the Taliban.
The report highlights that two State Department sub-agencies, the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL) and the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), failed to provide complete documentation to SIGAR, making it impossible to confirm compliance with counter-terrorism vetting requirements. This lapse raises concerns that U.S. funds could inadvertently support Taliban-linked entities.
“The risk of Taliban-founded NGOs, or other organizations that could funnel money to terrorist groups, benefiting from U.S. taxpayer funds underscores the importance of State complying with its own vetting and document retention requirements,” the report states. “As the U.S. government continues to provide assistance to the people of Afghanistan, it is vital that State complies with its partner vetting requirements intended to prevent the department from awarding U.S. taxpayer funds to individuals and entities with ties to terrorism.”
According to SIGAR, U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) officials reported that over 1,000 new nongovernmental organizations have registered with the Taliban, many of which are suspected of having terrorist affiliations. The State Department requires risk assessments to be conducted before awarding funds to Afghan entities to ensure they do not have ties to terrorist organizations.

Hunter Biden Seeks Dismissal of Criminal Cases, Cites Trump Special Counsel Ruling
… The motion cites a ruling from Florida-based U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon on Monday, which dismissed the criminal case against former President Donald Trump regarding the illegal retention of classified documents after leaving office. Judge Cannon determined that the appointment of the special counsel in Trump’s case, Jack Smith, violated the U.S. Constitution because Congress had not granted him the necessary authority to pursue the case.
David Weiss, the special counsel in Hunter Biden’s cases, secured a conviction last month in Delaware federal court on charges that Hunter Biden lied about his illegal drug use to purchase a gun. Additionally, Weiss is prosecuting a tax evasion case against Hunter Biden, with the trial scheduled for September.
Hunter Biden’s legal team is arguing that Weiss’s appointment suffers from the same constitutional issues as Smith’s in the Trump case, thus invalidating the charges and convictions secured by Weiss.
