Who’s In Charge?
WFB ^ | 1 July 2022 | Matthew Continetti

Posted on 07/02/2022 6:20:01 PM PDT by Rummyfan

"Which way am I going?" asked President Biden when he ended Thursday's press conference at the NATO summit in Madrid. He began to exit stage right, before someone redirected him toward stage left. This combination of ignorance and indecision was not new. Throughout his 18 months as president, Biden has been confused, uncertain, sluggish. He behaves as if he is guided by unseen forces. He moves on a course set by hidden captains.

People notice. Every time I speak to a conservative audience, I am asked who is really in charge in the White House. My answer has been that the president is in command. After all, institutions take on the character of their leaders. If all the White House has to offer is excuses, if decisions are made either slowly or randomly, if the communications team and the president and vice president seem to live on different planets, if incompetence and mismanagement appear throughout the government, it is because the chief executive allows it. No conspiracy is required to explain the ineptitude. This is Joe Biden we are talking about.

Lately, though, I have been having second thoughts. Not that Barack Obama or Ron Klain or Dr. Jill are running the show in secret. What I have been wondering, instead, is whether anyone is leading the government at all. There is no power, either overt or covert, in or behind the throne. The throne is empty.

Think of the economy, the border, and Ukraine. From time to time, Biden addresses these issues. He may even answer questions about them. The White House sends out press releases describing its latest initiatives. Vice President Harris or the second gentleman pops up somewhere to talk about all the good she and he are doing.

Senile Joe is the meat puppet that the Kenyan said he wanted to do the public stuff while he decided how to destroy the country.

biden is a particularly nasty problem. He’s incompetent and mean and belligerent as well.

I’d imagine Hitler’s last days in the bunker were more impressive than what’s going on now.

Yep, they are not only laughing, but watching for the best time to make their move on the world stage. Putin already has. This evil charade must end.

I am in the minority.

When I happen onto the brief clips of Brandon in public declaming about something I see several lines of slightly slow and old man sound but not at all the dementia problems he should be displaying.

I have always thought Satan watched out for Hillary and Biden, along with his news media followers.

Except for falling on the airplane stairs and asking a few idiotic questions he shouldn’t ask of aides, he is doing too well. Much too well.

I want him and Hillary to be shown in public as sickly and unfit to lead. Which they must be behind the scenes. What do people think Hillary said in the SUV after being tossed into it like a sack of manure? Or Biden when being coached at home for 2 hours on the under 100 words he will have to say on the teleprompter? But in public they look fine.

There’s only “right” and “left”. You’d think just randomly guessing he would get it right half the time.

There is no way Clinton should be alive, for one. The most evil of them don’t seem to die. I’m agnostic but something is up.

Who’s In Charge?

God is seemingly nowhere in this narrative.

The weird is the tell:

Finding meaning and hope in times of darkness.

“These days will be remembered and kept in each generation, in every family, land and city. These days of Purim will never be abandoned by the Jews, nor shall their memory die out among their children.”

Every year the Scroll of Esther must be read aloud in public, usually in the community synagogue. All adult Jewish men and women are given an obligation to hear every single word to fulfill the mitzvah.

When God is Hidden: The Meaning of Purim

"Venahafoch hu", thy name is Trump. From Queens. Some people might say that like it's a bad thing.

In-Jew-nuity, because folks need to catch on to who's really who,

and fast.
