MSNBC anchor Jen Psaki, who once served as President Biden’s press secretary, defended his campaign amid criticism of the president’s debate performance last week, instead pinning the blame on the president. Psaki said it is “absurd” to blame Biden’s prep team for his poor performance. “It was a bad debate. I have no doubt they were tough, strategic and direct. (Believe me I have seen them in action) but prep does not always determine the outcome,” she said on social platform X. “Biden was bad. Important convos about what happens next. But if you are directing your ire at ‘prep’...

I muse upon changes in music life across the expanse of the rise of talkies and radio. You would think that radio & talkies made music more accessible, therefore, the average person's appreciation of and participation in music got better after culture started to be put in an electronic form. Here's a suggestion that the opposite is true. Some things we know, to suggest that nearly everyone sang, are that in the decade before World War I, there were 300 piano brands in the U.S. (Most customers were middle-class, but some poor children could get a piano.) There were ten,...

Some 30 percent of Black Americans said they would vote for former President Donald Trump in a new poll, a huge jump from the percentage of Black people who voted for him in the last two elections. The survey was published on Wednesday after it was carried out by the New York Times and the Siena College Research Institute. Researchers questioned 1,226 registered voters between June 20 and June 25 and found that 30 percent of the Black people they surveyed would vote for Trump compared to 59 percent who said they would vote for President Joe Biden. Conversely, 53...

U.S. — Despite a significant majority of the nation now believing President Biden mentally unfit for office, the Democratic Party has decided to stay with Biden as its nominee as it would be a huge pain to reprint the tens of thousands of ballots they already filled out. "On one hand, the nation now knows Biden is incapable of thinking and is a clear and present danger to himself and the country," said DNC chair Jaime Harrison. "On the other hand, it would be SUCH a pain to have to reprint all those ballots when we already filled them all...

Israel has lost effective sovereignty in the northern part of the country, thanks to constant Hezbollah projectile fire that has led to the evacuation of tens of thousands of Israelis, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Monday. The Times of Israel reported: US Secretary of State Antony Blinken says that Israel “has effectively lost sovereignty in the northern quadrant of its country because people don’t feel safe to go to their homes.” In an on-stage interview at the Brookings Institution, Blinken reiterates his belief that Israel does not want a war in Lebanon, but admits that “they may well...

First Lady Jill Biden said she is “trying to be out there” to explain to the American people what she believes her husband, President Joe Biden, has achieved for them, she said during an interview published in Vogue. Jill Biden is featured on the cover of the magazine’s August issue, and it features a lengthy profile on the first lady, who has come under the spotlight as of late as critics believe she is the driving force behind her husband refusing to drop out of the presidential race, despite widespread panic among Democrats, particularly after Thursday’s debate. “Each campaign is...

People also often try to simply change the topic of conversation.

Those are straight facts, indisputable and proven through years of study. But counterpoint: have you considered that vegans are annoying? If the comments section under just about any media promoting a vegetarian or vegan diet is anything to go by, the answer to that question is probably “yes”. And, in any case, what about all the poor plants, huh? You okay with murdering them, IFLScience? The blood...

The Supreme Court just bitch-slapped Jack Smith. Fanny Willis is a beached whale, only fatter. The democrat-controlled media, which have been giving Joe Biden a cat-bath ever since he was elected are in full meltdown after the debate and today's Supreme Court ruling. The media have voiding in their huggies so much that newsrooms at MSNBC, CNN, NPR, and the rest smell like stale urine. That leaves Judge Merchan. The Biden machine will goose him to give President Trump a prison sentence, effective immediately in an attempt to keep him out of the White House. The democrats do not care...

The Biden campaign on Monday responded to the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity. The Supreme Court on Monday ruled 6-3 that Trump has absolute immunity for his core Constitutional powers. Former presidents are entitled to at least a presumption of immunity for their official acts. The Supreme Court ruled there is no immunity for unofficial acts. .... Snip.... The Biden-Harris camp didn’t take the Supreme Court’s decision well. They issued an unhinged statement and attacked Trump with lies. “Today’s ruling doesn’t change the facts, so let’s be very clear about what happened on January 6: Donald Trump snapped after...

President Joe Biden is trailing behind Donald Trump in the 2024 race, including by nearly 15 points among younger voters, according to a leading pollster. A survey from AtlasIntel, which was named the most accurate polling group of the 2020 presidential election by 538, found that Trump has a five-point lead over Biden (45.5 percent to 40.3) with just over four months to go until November's rematch between the pair. When broken down further, the poll of 1,634 likely voters shows that Trump is the clear favorite among voters aged 18-29 (41.6 percent to 27). Historically, younger voters have tended...

Old Joe Biden may be a poor debater, but at least he tells the truth, unlike Bad Orange Man. As improbable as it is, that’s the line the left has decided upon to explain away Biden’s appalling performance in last Thursday’s debate. But this excuse appears even more appalling in light of the fact that Biden lied his way through that debate.Old Joe himself said it at a Friday rally: “Well, folks, I don’t walk as easily as I used to. I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debah — debate as well as I used...

Lefebvre, Viganò and the Post-Conciliar Struggle Against the Catholic Church’s EnemiesArchbishop Carlo Maria Viganò began his recent statement (responding to accusations of schism) by quoting Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre from 1979:“‘When I think that we are in the palace of the Holy Office, which is the exceptional witness of the Tradition and of the defense of the Catholic Faith, I cannot stop myself from thinking that I am at home, and that it is me, whom you call ‘the traditionalist,’ who should judge you.’ So spoke Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre in 1979, when he was summoned to the former Holy Office, in...

Within a span of 24 hours, every sector of the American privileged class — from politics to punditry, from activism to academia — exposed their utter disdain for self-government. The power-first reveal initially exploded on an Atlanta stage when in real time the country witnessed our commander-in-chief confirm through his cognitively impaired performance that he is not running our country and that a vote for Joe Biden will be tallied for some unnamed other.All the talk about supposedly “saving democracy” means nothing: Joe Biden’s backers care not a whit about voters beyond whether they can manipulate the American people enough...

Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 Now is a good time to remind everyone that Jack Smith is and always has been a stone-cold loser. His J6 case is barely on life support in DC after he fudged the case. Judge Cannon is systematically destroying his docs case in addition to destroying the reputation and sanity of his prosecutors in Florida. And Justice Thomas just gave Cannon one more reason to dismiss docs case for unlawful appointment of Smith--a defense motion currently pending in her court:

Q has reminded us repeatedly that together, we are strong. As the false "narrative" is destroyed and the divisive machinery put in place by the Deep State fails, the fact that patriotism has no skin color or political party is exposed for all to see. 3038 Mar 12, 2019 2:55:14 PM EDTQ !!mG7VJxZNCI ID: 4fe510 No. 5643022>Decide for yourself (be free from outside opinion).>Decide for yourself (be objective in your conclusions).>Decide for yourself (be true in your own beliefs).>Decide for yourself (be open to following the facts).>Decide for yourself (be strong in defending your beliefs).>Decide for yourself (be resistant to...
