At the height of the pandemic, when the memes were flowing stronger than the B.S. from the CDC and WHO, a favorite of mine said, “I can’t wait for things to be precedented again.”
Little did we know then that there was no cure for “unprecedented” on the horizon. This presidential election year is serving up heaps of the stuff on the regular. We’ve got the two old guys running against each other. Donald Trump has been convicted of a bunch of non-felony felonies in a kangaroo court. Joe Biden is a slurring moron from a bad “SNL” skit that never ends.
Anyone who bets on what’s going to happen between now and November is just flushing money down the toilet.
Politics aside, what we have been seeing from Biden physically and mentally has been truly bizarre. It isn’t bizarre that an octogenarian is going through these things, of course; it’s bizarre because he’s still the most powerful man in the world and his precipitous decline is so painfully public. As many of us have written, we would have nothing but sympathy for him if he weren’t destroying the country.
The video evidence of Biden’s deterioration is beyond overwhelming at this point. Those who are in charge of logistics for this circus of an administration, however, would like you to know it is all an illusion.
By now, you’ve seen the footage of Barack Obama stepping in as Joe Biden’s handler at last week’s Hollywood fundraiser. The video, which has gone viral, is quite disturbing to watch.
It was lucky for Biden that his former boss was there to snap him out of his old man trance and lead him off stage.
Except, according to the White House, it never happened.
“Fresh off being fact checked by at least 6 mainstream news organizations for lying about President Biden with cheap fakes, Rupert Murdoch’s sad little super pac, the New York Post, is back to disrespecting its readers and itself once again by pretending the President taking in an applauding crowd for a few seconds is somehow wrong,” Biden’s senior deputy press secretary Andrew Bates said in a statement to The Hill. “Their ethical standards could deal with a little unfreezing.”
The snippiness from Bates is telling. Biden’s handlers are tasked with defending the indefensible, and it is obviously taking a toll on them.
What the Dems would have us believe is that the many videos we see of Biden wandering around like he dropped some vintage Woodstock acid and then got hit with a tranq dart were edited in some nefarious rightwing nutjob entertainment complex.
“Cheap fakes” is the new “selective editing.” For years, the Democrats have been excusing away damning video by saying that it was edited to remove context. Now that we’re into the AI age, they’re just going to say it’s all made up.
The thing is, most of the videos where Biden looks awful have been released into the wild by perfectly Dem-friendly outlets. The conservative bogeyman with mad deep fake and editing skills simply does not exist.
Joe Biden’s abandonment of his faculties does exist, however. Given the fact that the President of the United States frequently has a camera on him, our lying eyes are going to be given plenty more chances to lie. This video is from something my Townhall colleague Rebecca Downs wrote yesterday:
Here is Rebecca’s assessment:
There is no way to positively spin this. It sounds like the president has truly lost it. He’s likely yelling gibberish at the press, as a way to mock them and their questions. At best, he’s reminding the American people the kind of disdain he has for the press. “That video is like watching a drunk homeless guy who hangs out in a park and shouts at birds,” Bonchie at our sister site of RedState mentioned.
Rebecca is dead-on here: Team Biden can spin until they’re all dizzy, but it isn’t going to change the fact that their puppet president has lost it. He shouldn’t be left in charge of an ice cream cone in a public park, let alone the responsibilities of the chief executive of the United States of America. It matters not that the president can delegate a lot; this guy is a train wreck who should be spending his days on a beach in Delaware, screeching at the seagulls.
“Precedent” mean built on what went before, usually legally.
Our “unprecedented” times means we never can predict what’s going to happen next.
A liberal academic, Mark Lilla, wants to help this kind of unprecedented action along by stumping for getting Christians out of politics completely.
https://thefederalist.com/2024/06/17/this-liberal-academic-wants-christians-to-leave-politics-to-leftists/
Yeah, just let the Lefties do it all.
then we’ll never know what’s coming next, except it won’t benefit anyone but themselves.
Lilla has all t he Intelligence level below a Turkeys aa typical leftists pinhead just like Sanders so narrow minded if their Brain was put on the blade of a butterknife it would look like a Pea rolling down a Four Lane Highway
Who will be the democrat nominee or November?
Someone who knows the difference between a noun and an adjective.
Who are the democrats going to replace Joe with?
To answer the question, one has to assume that Biden won’t be the nominee. Not everyone makes that assumption.
Most people are not like you they simply will not vote for a vegetable, they may not vote for DJT but just cant let the ship go rudderless.
BIDEN: “Every nation must secure its borders. It’s that simple, and if Trump and Republicans wouldn’t do it working with me, then I would do it on my own, and I did.”
Just like Biden (meaning Jake Sullivan) refuses to honor not one, but two, Supreme Court decisions along with every immigration law written. He has always believed he is above the law and nothing has changed with his dementia. It’s just now the Obama cabal is running everything, meaning, all Oval Office actions are Obama doctrine.
Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden just dangled another massive lure to more illegal immigration while keeping the border wide open.
How about someone that knows the difference between right and wrong? Someone that knows the difference between and open, unsecured border and a closed, secured border? How about one that know the difference between upholding laws and violating them? Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden is a total moron that is trashing this country.
Trump Rally…
Biden increasing debt by 80k per second. You say nothing.
https://x.com/CitizenFreePres/status/1803161453559492963
Hell, he wants to SPEND MORE. Now we’re handing citizenship out like candy. While he keeps the border wide open, he dangles more lures to more illegal immigrants.
I’ve heard that Biden is going to use eminent domain to take houses from Republican homeowners and turn the houses over to immigrants.
He’s channeling his inner Foster Brooks.
Yeah, you also hear Trump is going to put everyone in camps, too. Ever consider finding other sources of information besides those that consistently lie to you?
Biden’s total projected 1st term debt will be slightly in excess of Trump’s—without adjusting for inflation.
Or the initial expenses that were related to the Kung Flu.
Did that just slip your mind?
So you’re saying the Trump administration spent far more on COVID than the Biden administration?
No, actually before Trump’s COVID aid was even spent, Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden used the opportunity to waste even MORE trillions of dollars in “aid”.
Remember COVID? Remember Nancy adding trillions to COVID aid or refusing to vote on it? Yeah… good times.
We think it’s significant that you can’t show an image of a REAL Trump rally because then you would be showing the trust and respect MILLIONS of AMERICANS have for Trump.

Your still stupid just like the rest of them Liberals with Sawdust for Brains
The Democrat campaign has become the campaign of 100% lies 100% of the time. They lie about what Trump says and does and they lie about what Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden says and does (or doesn’t do). Democrats have degraded to the point where every statement they make is rife with lies. They will be in serious trouble if their followers ever get tired of being treated like stupid fools that can’t see the facts right in front of their faces.

Sure. Congress can amend the law. Just like Congress could impeach a president who ordered Seal Team Six to take out his political opponents, as a preliminary requirement for criminal prosecution.
2 trillion dollar deficit with 1.4% GDP. biden goes down in flames.
Biden’s current GDP growth rate is 3.1 percent.
Trump’s 2020 GDP growth rate was NEGATIVE 2.3 percent.
Bullshit and you know it fuck head.
Q1 2024 GDP 1.3%
Btw 2020: negative GDP affected by COVID shutdown. Duh.
greg is a lying piece of shit.
Trump’s bullshit legend and campaign are built of lies.
The COVID shutdown is what Biden had to build back from, Sonny Jim. Your cult leader started out with 75 consecutive months of economic growth.
Q1 2024 GDP 1.3%
How’d Biden’s gaza pier workout? Build back better?

So what does the following have to do with inflation reduction?
Inflation Reduction Act Benefiting Radical Anti-Border, Anti-ICE GroupsJune 12, 2024
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), Vice Chairman of the Senate Republican Conference and Ranking Member of the Senate Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee, participated in the weekly Senate Republican Leadership press conference where she discussed her continued oversight findings from Democrats’ so-called Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).
During her remarks, Senator Capito revealed that two anti-borders and anti-immigration enforcement groups are benefiting from a portion of funding awarded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) through the IRA. The groups, which have nothing to do with environmental protection, actively advocate for abolishing ICE and the police, believe borders are “racist and classist,” want to prevent state and local government employees from cooperating with federal immigration enforcement, and hold several other radical positions.
Last month, Senator Capito unveiled similar oversight findings connected to the same grant program from the IRA to “Climate Justice Alliance,” a group that engages in pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, and anti-Semitic activities. Learn more here.
HIGHLIGHTS:
WHAT THESE GROUPS STAND FOR: “New Jersey Alliance for Immigrant Justice tweeted ‘the border and concept of citizenship is racist, classist farce,’ that’s their president – thinks that our citizenship is racist. The New York Immigration Coalition has stated on their website, ‘all state local government employees’ should be prohibited from collaborating with federal immigration authorities. [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] has a ‘racist and abusive agenda’ and state should ‘end support for detention and deportation.’ These are organizations – these two – who are receiving or are going to determine who receives the money from the green climate fund.”
BIDEN’S ELECTION YEAR STUNT: “Several of the speakers in front of me have talked about the Biden immigration [plan]. He puts out this immigration plan –how we’re going to stave off this illegal immigration. At the same time, his administration is giving money to anti-immigration enforcement groups. It’s hypocrisy and the highest. It’s very slack oversight, at the least. And it’s very dishonest when you talk to the American public about the goals of a green climate fund are being determined by ‘immigration justice’ and ‘immigration coalition’ groups.”

Why do you so readily accept massive failure as a government policy?
The U.S. Economy Reaches Superstar Status –
06/10/24 – If the United States’ economy were an athlete, right now it would be peak LeBron James. If it were a pop star, it would be peak Taylor Swift. Four years ago, the pandemic temporarily brought much of the world economy to a halt. Since then, America’s economic performance has left other countries in the dust and even broken some of its own records. The growth rate is high, the unemployment rate is at historic lows, household wealth is surging, and wages are rising faster than costs, especially for the working class. There are many ways to define a good economy. America is in tremendous shape according to just about any of them.
The American public doesn’t feel that way—a dynamic that many people, including me, have recently tried to explain. But if, instead of asking how people feel about the economy, we ask how it’s objectively performing, we get a very different answer.
Let’s start with economists’ favorite metric: growth. When an economy is growing, more money is being spent. More stuff is being produced, more services are being performed, more businesses are being started, more workers are being hired—and, because of this abundance, living standards are probably rising. (On the flip side, during a recession—literally, when the economy shrinks—life gets materially worse.) Right now America’s economic-growth rate is the envy of the world. From the end of 2019 to the end of 2023, U.S. GDP grew by 8.2 percent—nearly twice as fast as Canada’s, three times as fast as the European Union’s, and more than eight times as fast as the United Kingdom’s.
“It’s hard to think of a time when the U.S. economy has diverged so fundamentally from its peers,” Mark Zandi, the chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, told me. Over the past year, some of the world’s biggest economies, including those of Japan and Germany, have fallen into recession, complete with mass layoffs and angry street protests. In the U.S., however, the post-pandemic recession never arrived. The economy just keeps growing.
Still, growth is a crude measure that says very little about people’s day-to-day lives. Perhaps the right question to ask is: Are most Americans better off financially than they were before the pandemic?
One school of thought maintains that the answer is no, because of the rising cost of living. Thanks to three years of higher-than-usual inflation, just about everything costs more than it did before the pandemic.
Price increases on their own, however, can’t tell us if the cost of living has gone up. What really matters is the relationship between how expensive things are and how much money people have to spend on them. As Vox’s Eric Levitz recently pointed out, prices have increased by 1,400 percent since 1947; that doesn’t mean Americans have less buying power today than at a time when a third of the country didn’t have running water and 40 percent lived in poverty. That’s largely because incomes have increased by 2,400 percent over the same stretch. If prices go up but people’s incomes go up faster, then the cost of living decreases. And that is exactly what has happened in the U.S. over the past five years.
It took some time. When inflation was at its worst, in late 2021 and 2022, prices were rising too fast for workers’ pay to keep up. Over the course of 2023, however, the rate of inflation plummeted while wages kept rising. According to calculations by the economist Arindrajit Dube, prices rose about 20 percent from the beginning of the pandemic to the end of 2023—but the median worker’s hourly wages had increased by more than 26 percent. In other words, a dollar in 2024 might not go as far as a dollar in 2019, but today the average worker has so many more dollars that they can afford a higher quality of life.
Some experts dispute this. Loretta Mester, the president of the Cleveland Federal Reserve, recently told The New York Times that wage growth hadn’t kept pace with inflation, citing an indicator that tracks changes in compensation within particular industries. But one of the most common ways for workers to get a raise is to move between industries, from lower- to higher-paying occupations—the way someone working as a fry cook, say, might next take a job as a package-delivery driver. Basically every other measure of worker pay shows that wages adjusted for inflation are higher today than they were before the pandemic. Dube’s calculations are particularly reliable because they are based on a dataset that tracks wages for individual workers over time.
Other nations probably wish they had the luxury of debating such technicalities. From the beginning of the pandemic through the fall of 2023, the last period for which we have good comparative data, real wages in both Europe and Japan fell. In Germany, workers lost 7 percent of their purchasing power; in Italy, 9 percent. By these metrics, the only workers in the entire developed world who are meaningfully better off than they were four years ago are American ones…
The Atlantic, left wing rag, dismissed.
Are you able to actually refute any of the points with facts?
Geeze scroll up professor.
The fact is, The Atlantic is a leftist propaganda rag that does nothing but lie.
You dismiss anything that doesn’t parrot the cult’s propaganda.
You dismiss the reality that Biden left the building years ago and those running everything that comes out of the White House are actually the Obama cabal.
Obama took us from a crashed economy to 75 consecutive months of economic growth. What’s your point?
Obama was on the side of crashing the economy with home loans to people who couldn’t and wouldn’t pay them back. He was a big friend of ACORN.
1.0% and 2.0% is hardly “growth”, and he only achieved that with 0.0% interest rates. He sucked.
We dismiss that which is proven to be lies. Most of us are smart enough to not take credibly those who have repeatedly proffered massive lies for the sole purpose of promoting the Democrat party. SItes like the NYT, The Atlantic, MSNBC, CNN, WaPo, NPR, ABC, CBS, NBC, Daily Kos, Media Matters, etc. all are known and proven liars. Not you and Michael, of course… you two are addicted to leftist propaganda because you lack the guts to face your own failures in judgement.
Doing a deep dive on any of the above media is a waste of time. Raging maddow is the worst. She dropped down to one day per week because her effect was minimal. Now she rages back like someone that should be listened to. No thanks, I get enough of he bullshit spin on outtakes with critical analysis.
Peak credit card debt, a starter house to expensive, inflation destroying savings. All jobs going to illegals, crime ignored. Child trafficking now government facilitated.
Purchasing power of the dollar declined about 7.4 percent between 2021 and 2022 that was 2 years ago inflation has not stopped.
The fools at the Atlantic are not gaslighting anyone who goes to the grocery store or gas station, not anyone who opens the bills. Not 1 thing built, back, or better.
The Atlantic is anti-American. The publication is not even suitable to line a bird cage.
But can you refute any of the facts?
Without question.
Then why don’t you do so?
We already did.
No, you lying little Trump Monkey, you DID NOT.
Sure did.
347 billion dollar deficit in the month of May. Is that bidenomics at work?
You didn’t do shit.
Yes, I did.
Trump’s little buddy Putin is currently discussing how to bring down the West with Kim Jong-un.
Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden makes Putin’s plans possible. Did he ever put sanctions on the oligarch that Hunter and the Biden’s were doing business with?
joe’ team has come with a fake solution to Amercan’s money woes:
You can borrow on your home more easily as banks are forced to accept 2nd mortgages at terrible risk of non-repayments.
Then you can eat and buy meds but eventually lose your home.
One of those risks is that joe’s peeps want you medical debt to not be counted against you on your credit score…..but you still have to pay that debt, unlike student debt.
If people fall for this they really are stupid.
Now, THAT doesn’t lie.
Are the rank and file finally figuring out that less labor needed to build fewer EV’s means fewer union jobs?
Is this better off?

Oh, shit. The lying, propaganda Atlantic. If that’s all you have, you should give up, and that’s all you have.
He didn’t “build back” anything. High inflation, low wages, terrible jobs (except for the millions that just went back to their artificially shut down jobs). Like Obama, Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden couldn’t even take a golden opportunity for massive economic growth and exploit it. He destroyed it.
When the unvetted illegal immigrants Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden lets in keep killing innocent citizens, why does Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden letting them in? What is it about murderous criminal illegal immigrants that he holds in higher esteem than a US citizen?
While Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden never had COVID shutdowns to strangle his economy, he’ll NEVER see 3% growth. NEVER. Trump had an economy completely shut down for almost a year; think that might affect growth? When red states reopened (blue states stayed closed despite the evidence they didn’t need to), he had 31% growth IN ONE MONTH.
Give me the Trump economy. You can shove Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden’s economy up your ass and rotate on it.
The Republican Chore Wheel of Blame! This can be used to place blame, should your favorite echo chamber social media site be down.
You’re following a bunch of effin’ lunatics. In their own words:
They are literally threatening violence. “As ye sow, so shall ye reap.”
Put down the crack pipe and step away from the Maddow.
It’s not about Maddow. It’s about what Bannon and Kari Lake are saying. They’re advocating violence. Are you too chicken shit to click, hear what they’re saying, and comment on it?
Since you mentioned violence. Here’s some Democrat style.
Not advocating but commiting.
https://amac.us/newsline/national-security/democrats-encouraging-violence/
So much for the First Amendment in Louisiana.
Well, if Madcow is saying it… the truth must be the absolute opposite.
Maddow ISN’T saying it. Bannon and Lake are saying it.
Gosh, I can’t wait until Trump has them all in the concentration camps!
The criminals are in the state department, the fbi, DOJ and CIA. Deep investigations and appointment of special counsels for each of the agencies so that justice can be properly attached to each of the obama/biden criminals.
Can you find something shorter than 20 minutes of running screaming retard brain MSLSD and their Star circus clown? Does she have another page of tax returns? Is she ranting how the vaxx works?
Sorry lil buddy can no do the brain drain of Wretched.
The Dems are demanding we ignore our experience, the economy is not working for Americans, The foreign Policy has us on the brink of WW3 and Zelensky is getting promises of another 50 billion in cash on our credit card. Israel is selling weapons it makes, and wants our weapons to fight its war.
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-defence-exports-hit-record-131-billion-2023-2024-06-17/
They all need to go fuck themselves.
The video opens at the 13 minutes and 25 seconds mark with Bannon’s comments. Apparently you all wet your panties the moment you see Maddow’s face and are too terrified to watch.
Tell me, Comrade Greggie, how is what Bannon said any different than what the Pelosi/Schumer bunch of traitors said about those who supported Donald Trump? You want persecution look no further than a 70 something year old woman being sentenced to two years prison for praying, and singing, in front of an abortion mill.
It seems you needed Madcow to explain what Bannon said because you can’t compute.
Most intelligent people have learned to discount the radical left wing bullshit put out by Maddow, Joy Behar, Whoopie, and the mentally deranged Scarbrough. But hey, hang on to your Manchurian candidate mentality.
Raging maddow is sad.
You spelled “stupid, lying, fascist carpet-muncher” wrong.
The problem is that Trump cultists CAN’T TELL the difference. They’ve lost the ability to discern the difference between factual information and cult propaganda, assuming they ever had a capability for analytical thought to begin with. This explains how Putin is okie dokie in their estimation, if not actually admirable, despite the obvious fact that he’s aligning Russia with every dangerously aggressive dictator on the planet to confront Western democracy.
How’s that global warming denialism working out for the nation, btw? You’ll find out as soon as FEMA goes bust. Adverse climate change consequences aren’t hypothetical anymore; they’re already here, and they’re going to rapidly worsen. Every damn summer is soon going to be the hottest summer on record.
Therein lies the problem with the left; y’all are so freaking arrogant you think every Republican/conservative is stupid with a low IQ.
How about the Obama cult which you were a very verbal part of? Are you so stupid you bought into the whole “fundamentally transform America” bullshit?
What Trump is selling isn’t traditional republican conservatism.
It doesn’t align with the teachings of Christ, either.
Be specific.
Be specific. And since you are the least Christian person that posts here (well, except for your buttbuddy), this could get interesting.
You deny that they are playing climate games with dumping chemicals into the atmosphere, harrp and lasers. They have been fucking with the weather for years.
Data proves there is no warming, unless it is cherry picked. Humans have adapted to every climate from deserts to the arctic. Fighting carbon is insane life on this planet is carbon based.
Gates wants to dim the sun, how does that work with solar energy? fricken psychos.

You confuse terrified with revulsion.
Hey, if it lies, Greg is a super fan.
If someone hasn’t committed crimes, they have nothing to worry about. You DO know what an actual crime is, don’t you? Comey, for instance, violated the Espionage Act. Many of the others he mentioned, volunteering to protect Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden by lying about Hunter’s laptop, should be prosecuted for interfering with the 2020 election, right? That’s what the fascist left prosecuted Trump for (we think, best we can tell), and he did no such thing. I really don’t understand why you have some kind of problem with Democrats that have committed crimes being treated the same way Trump and others have been treated when they committed NO crimes.
