The remnant DNA from Jake Tapper’s White House correspondent job at ABC, seemingly had an unexpected synaptic firing last night before shutting down forever.  It was, essentially, the last wisp of Tapper’s journalism desperately trying to rage against the dying of the light.  It was also very sad, in a pathetic partisan way, to watch.

Somewhere in the deep recesses of our memory, we remember those days before the U.S. State Dept and IC, via CNN, purchased the $5 million Washington DC estate for Tapper to own his credibility.  Furrowed brows sold cheap; I digress.

Just as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow, despite the grand pontifications evident in this performance, Mr Tapper will quickly return to the DNC plantation.  After all, a life without pretending in DC is a lonely, isolated, irrelevant, hermit life filled with black pills, coffee and unused shaving cream.   Just ask Steve Bannon.

In the few seconds where the remnant journalist DNA had a spontaneous synaptic firing event, Jake Tapper tried to talk Delaware Senatore Chris Coons into dropping the pretenses about the mental acuity of Joe Biden.  Senator Coons was having none of that honest Tapper nonsense.  No-way, no-how, nope… not happening.  There’s not a chance in heck that Coons will be the first politician to willingly put his head in the basket.  WATCH:

To quote formerly funny pop culture, Joe Biden’s debate performance was “merely a flesh wound.”

Do not let it go unnoticed that foreign leaders are watching the USA President give a national address shouting about a need to “save democracy” while simultaneously trying to jail his political opposition.   These are not just odd hypocrisies that make good fodder to intellectually beat leftists in western social media battles; these are actual realities with real world consequences for billions of people living in it.

Decrying the lack of constraints on executive power while expecting us to forget how the same executive office holder mandated gene therapy for all workers under threat of government punishment, seems a little odd.  However, this is the era of Great Pretending, and I’m here to underline the bold examples of it.

Joe Biden has the audacity, the nerve, the political tone deafness which can only come from an echo-chamber of ideological idiots, to use his official office to protest against his political opposition under the guise of a Supreme Court ruling the entirety of his leftist tribe doesn’t like.  It really is pathetic how low-grade and unintellectual our republican form of government has become.  WATCH:

The wheels on the bus go thump, thump, thump…. just ask the three debate officials who are now being blamed for the disastrous performance by Joe Biden in Atlanta last week.

According to several sources who have talked to Politico, the Biden family are naming top Biden advisor Anita Dunn, her CIA husband Bob Bauer and top advisor Ron Klain for horrible debate preparation.  The three senior staff advisors have been a part of the Biden/Obama orbit for many years.  Jill Biden and the rest of the family are pointing the finger directly at them.

(L-R: Bob Bauer, Anita Dunn, Ron Klain)

WASHINGTON DC – Members of Joe Biden’s family privately trashed his top campaign advisers at Camp David this weekend, blaming them for the president’s flop in Thursday’s debate and urging Biden to fire or demote people in his political high command.

There is no immediate expectation that Biden will follow through on that advice, according to three people briefed on the family conversations but not directly involved. The three people were granted anonymity to discuss the matter.

…“The President is not above the law. But Congress may not criminalize the President’s conduct in carrying out the responsibilities of the Executive Branch under the Constitution.”… 

In a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court of the United Stated ruled that presidents have “absolute immunity” for official “actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority.”  [SEE RULING HERE] Also, “official acts” cannot be used as evidence against the president in a criminal case.

As expected, the high court instructed the lower trial courts to hold specific evidentiary hearings on each anti-Trump criminal count, and determine which counts, if any, related to official or unofficial acts.

The Supreme Court is essentially telling the lower courts to go back and look at each citation and review which claims are official acts and which claims related to unofficial acts. The Supreme Court ruled that presidents may not have immunity for non-official conduct. However, when the judicial review cannot differentiate, the court cannot look at motives for the decisions.

I’m not saying anything predictive, but if you were scripting a Biden exit, ‘close time with family’ would be part of the Act-2 narrative.

According to NBC, and a very dramatic Kirsten Welker, five people familiar with the matter have told seven serious people close to the events, that two deep thinking people who are part of the conversation are confirming what three other close officials are revealing on background.  The Biden family wagons are circled, and the decision on whether to remain or exit is underway.

If you follow the close nuance of the professionally Democrat, you will notice the top tier of control agents have sent the underlings messages downstream to shut up about the removal. They need about 72 hours, and the professionals are paying attention.  If the chattering dog-faced pony soldiers want to be a part of the next administration, or receive the indulgences from the club officers, they will shut up now.   According to the Act-3 script, Tuesday-ish will likely be announcement day.  WATCH:

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden is expected to discuss the future of his re-election campaign with family at Camp David on Sunday, following a nationally televised debate Thursday that left many fellow Democrats worried about his ability to beat former President Donald Trump in November, according to five people familiar with the matter.

There are two people with the juice to immediately remove Joe Biden from office, Barack Obama and James Clyburn.  Not coincidentally, these are the two people who joined forces just before Super-Tuesday 2020 to select Joe and instructed/threatened all the other Democrat candidates to exit the Presidential primary.  If either Obama or Clyburn publicly say Biden’s done, then Biden’s gone within 24 hrs.

Clyburn’s role in the installation of Obama delivered a massive amount of influence and affluence to him and his family.  Clyburn is cashing in on his role within the DNC and Democrat Party apparatus.  As a result, Clyburn and Obama should be considered the majority investors in Biden, and it is worth paying close attention to what the South Carolina representative says about his Biden investment portfolio.

This morning Clyburn appears on CNN to tell debate co-moderator Dana Bash, that with Biden’s mental acuity, there’s nothing to see here – move along, move along.  The effervescent Joe Biden was simply too overloaded with debate preparation information.  WATCH (2:43 prompted):

The ever-intellectual Joe Biden, the true source of Corn-Pop’s black enlightenment and savior of black youth civil rights, has stitched up the hole in his marble bag and returned to Mount Brilliant.  Swear.  James Clyburn said it, so it must be true.

I doubt there’s a person who regularly reads the Treehouse who doesn’t know our long-standing prediction about the 2024 democrat nomination. Factually, if you go back to the first set of articles written after the 2020 election, you will find it has not changed in almost 4 years.

Biden was installed for a single ‘throw every leftist wish list item at the wall‘ term in office.  Biden equaled, one single term where every far-left agenda item would be triggered; with hundreds of millions poured into the donors’ vaults via GND legislation.

With that baseline in mind, we accepted that Biden would not be the left-wing 2024 nominee regardless of how much people stomped their feet and said he would.  That scenario was just never going to happen, and still won’t.   I never flinched from that non-pretending position.

My own prediction was that someone akin to Gavin Newsom would be joined with someone akin to Susan Rice.  I have written about it extensively.  Every single person in/around my orbit knows that for me the conversation in the last 48 hours is like discussing water that lacks dryness.

These are the moments when I just sit and watch.  There’s really not much for me to say or write, other than to wait, then bring everyone into the room of ramifications that comes after walking down the hallway where reality gets accepted.  In the ramification room we start discussing how the multinationals, World Bank, World Trade Organization, NATO, EU, BRICS, Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin will respond to the non-pretending reality.

Right now, everyone in the USA is discussing the ‘remove Biden’ political landscape domestically. However, in the bigger picture there’s an entire world of really big issues that come along when the USA media start openly admitting the USA president has dementia. There’s a reason why President Trump refused to engage this conversation before. It’s not good for the world.

When you use a bullhorn to announce the zookeeper is sick, people near the big cats start discussing how to unlock the cages. Yes, sure, people like Barack Obama and his tribe will giggle and laugh, but in the biggest of big pictures this loud public conversation is not good for our country or the world. It is good that we all stop pretending; our Lord knows we have hoped the pretending would cease. But don’t forget to think… and watch out for what comes next.  Here’s Tucker Carlson:

In a major 6-3 ruling, the Supreme Court has finally addressed the expansive regulatory use of executive agencies to create law through interpretation.  The 40-year-old Chevron ruling granted the executive agencies of government the ability to interpret laws and apply restrictions/regulations based on their own rules and definitions therein.

The Supreme Court put the judicial branch back into the equation by ruling that courts will decide what laws apply when the legislation is ambiguous on detail.  This shift in prior precedent could have major ramifications.  [MORE AT SCOTUS BLOG]

In another big case, the court ruled in favor of Joseph Fischer a Pennsylvania police officer charged in the January 6th protest with “obstructing an official proceeding.”  [FULL RULING HERE]

The law at the center of Fischer’s case is 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)(2), and as noted by Julie Kelly, “The statute … has been applied in roughly 350 J6 cases; it also represents two of four counts in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s J6-related criminal indictment of Donald Trump in Washington.”

Julie Kelly – […] In a 6-3 decision, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that the “c2” subsection is tethered to the “c1” subsection that addresses tampering with a record, document, or “object.”

Roberts was joined by Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Ketanji Brown Jackson. Justice Amy Coney Barrett authored the dissent (!) joined by Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor.

First, some have speculated the timing of the first 2024 presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden is so early in the election year, prior to any party convention, because Biden is anticipated to be replaced.  This is considerable supposition, but the date of the debate is indeed very odd.

Secondly, without a doubt the headlines leading into the debate have been seeded with talking points friendly to the Biden position on economics, immigration, inflation and foreign policy (Ukraine).  From economists publicizing letters to government agencies promoting lowered inflation, the talking points for Biden have been well scripted and practiced.

Third, CNN the exclusive media outlet for the debate, is notorious for structuring political attacks against President Trump.  Biden has been in dress rehearsals and training for the optics and soundbites for several weeks.  Knowing CNN gave prior debate questions to Hillary Clinton in advance during the 2016 primary, we can anticipate CNN working hand in glove with the Biden campaign.  They don’t even try to hide this stuff any longer.

That said, if you are watching the debate tonight, consider this an open discussion thread.  I will embed the livestream links below that should work despite CNN being extremely aggressive with the proprietary broadcast controls.
