EMERGENCY, BIDEN STYLE
The presidency of Joe Biden has brought on a series of emergencies since the first day of his administration: the erasure of our southern border and a horde of illegal immigrants. Historic levels of inflation. The suppression of our homegrown energy production. The demoralization of the armed forces. New lows in gender dysphoria and the culture wars. All this in 18 months and we’ve only just begun.
Yet Biden rattles on about the “climate emergency.” He can’t do a damn thing to change the “climate.” He can only further immiserate the American people. It is the price we have to pay for his skin cancer. “Not a joke. Not a joke,” as he is wont to say.
As in fact he did say up in Somerset, Massachusetts yesterday. He went to Somerset to give a set of remarks on “actions to tackle the climate crisis.” The White House has posted the transcript here.
He is a man with a message: “As President, I have a responsibility to act with urgency and resolve when our nation faces clear and present danger. And that’s what climate change is about. It is literally, not figuratively, a clear and present danger. The health of our citizens and our communities is literally at stake.”
This too is literal: “Climate change is literally an existential threat to our nation and to the world.”
This is a promise, not a threat: “In the coming days, my administration will announce the executive actions we have developed to combat this emergency.” Now that’s what I call an emergency.
If you doubt it, consider the current heat wave, consider the evidence: “Right now, 100 million Americans are under heat alert — 100 million Americans. Ninety communities across America set records for high temperatures just this year, including here in New England as we speak.” He means to stave off the apocalypse.
The guy is out of his mind. I don’t mean mentally infirm. I mean in the colloquial sense tgat he is out of his mind in the way that the Democratic Party and its media adjunct are out of their minds. He has lots of company in this particular debility. The “climate threat” is a blunt weapon in their hands.
Quotable quote: “If we don’t keep it below 1.5 degrees Centigrade, we lose it all.”

Well, Biden did say unequivocally he would find a cure for cancer as the basement candidate. Millions are waiting with their hopes for the cure as their only hope.

The lefty legislature has continued to empower the criminal set with no consequences for anything –
Before Thursday, Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux said he did not expect the defendants to show up. He placed blame on the state’s soft-on-crime attitude and so-called criminal justice reform for a policy that allowed the two alleged drug traffickers to go free with nothing but a promise to come to court.
“I didn’t learn about the order until it was far too late,” Boudreaux previously told Fox News. “I couldn’t believe we had 150,00 fentanyl pills — one of the most dangerous epidemics facing our nation today, with people in custody that we may potentially be able to impact the future of this type of drug trafficking organization… and we let them go.”
“Although there is a need for a pre-trial release program, to do it covertly in the middle of the night in a very nontransparent matter is extremely dangerous,” Tulare County District Attorney Tim Ward told Fox News on Thursday outside the courthouse, referring to the court’s initial decision to release the defendants. “What we discovered here was that it was occurring based on a decision without any foundation of the facts of the case. And I think doing forward, I think everyone is realizing that’s a mistake and should not continue.”
“The problem is once again the legislature and the state of California are trying to go down some social experiment born on the back of law-abiding citizens,” Ward said. “I go out on a limb and say that had these defendants been subject to the million bail that was in place when they were arrested, and they made bail based on that amount, they would have some skin in the game, some financial obligation and motivation to return to court.”

Wonder if the J-6 Committee will show the viewers docs that President Trump via his Pentagon offered ten thousand National Guardsmen to Pelosi (in charge of Capitol Security) and to the Mayor of DC Muriel Bowser, not two days in advance of Jan 6, but two whole weeks in advance of Jan. 6.

The chi coms are in a bind –
One of them happens to be … China’s hyper leveraged property market by some conservative estimates,” he explained. “China’s property sector makes up 30% of Chinese GDP, so even small deviations in that market can have outsized impact on China’s broader global domestic product and its broader growth.”
Homebuyers across China have threatened to stop making mortgage payments, blaming “stalled” building work, which has added a serious wrinkle against any recovery Beijing has recorded.
We’ve seen a number of very large defaults of some of the largest Chinese property construction companies,” Singleton said. “We’ve seen an increasing amount of frustration from Chinese citizens who have sunk their life savings into China’s real estate market, primarily viewing it as an investment vehicle or a safe investment, and now many of them are left unable to move into their homes.”
The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission (CBIRC) insisted that the banks should meet “reasonable” developer financing needs and that “all the difficulties and problems will be properly solved,” Reuters reported. Data for the property sector showed a 7% shrink in the second quarter compared to the previous year.
The World Bank voiced concern that Beijing would turn to “the old playbook of boosting growth through debt-financed infrastructure and real estate investment.”
“Such a growth model is ultimately unsustainable, and the indebtedness of many corporates and local governments is already too high,” the World Bank wrote
That economic weakness creates a troubling picture for Chinese President Xi Jinping as he seeks another, record third term as leader, according to Asia expert and Gatestone Institute senior fellow Gordon Chang. Xi might try to shake things up in order to show that China remains strong internationally even as it faces these domestic troubles.
“Xi Jinping has every incentive in the world to cause some military misadventure abroad,” Chang said, saying Xi could “either invade a neighbor or perhaps dangerously intercept a plane or a vessel.”
“We don’t know exactly what he would do, but he does have reason to do it,” Chang added. “Right now, China is in distress: [Xi]’s got the mortgage boycott, which is now in 86 cities; a new supplier’s boycott; bank runs – this is just unprecedented.”
Chang suggested Xi might try to even stir up trouble with India, a neighbor that China has clashed with a number of times over recent years. He also pointed to recent Chinese incursions into Japanese waters, as well as renewed pressure in the South China Sea, which prompted a warning from the U.S. State Department.
We know that these are not only simmering incidents, but some of them could actually make sure to a full-blown crisis,” he said.
The Center for Strategic and International Studies wrote that Zero-Covid has “exacted high economic, social and political costs in a remarkably short period.” Analysts at the Center believe that the policy has “disrupted manufacturing, supply chains and consumer spending.”
Singleton noted that this has led to record-high urban youth unemployment and “broad-based” frustration in the banking sector. About one-fifth of all 16 to 24-year-olds in China are currently unemployed, meaning less than 15% of recent graduates have managed to find jobs.

At the same time they are telling us to go out and buy an electric car.
Across the nation, even the dimmest of bulbs are starting to realize Biden and Co. are leading the country off of an energy cliff.

Everything from kidnapping the Lindbergh baby to the Kennedy Assassination, plus both the Viet Nam and Iraq wars, rap music, auto dialers, old mean yelling at clouds, etc….all Trump!
This followed by 6 minutes of commercials for Walk-in Tubs, phones with oversized buttons, and low cost funeral insurance plans!
….and thanks in advance for agreeing with me!
All for now.

What law did that break?
Looks like hyperbole to me, and in the fog when uttered it might even have been rational.

Not one member of Trumps DOJ or his attorneys supported his contention about the election being stolen so what was rational about it? So Trump sat back and watched the riot on TV for over three hours and did nothing to stop the violence. He rejected offers of help from the Pentagon while Pence and his staff ran for their lives along with other legislators while their offices were ramsacked and looted. I repeat, Trump was watching this on TV and did nothing for three hours and you still support his actions as being a legitimate response. and possibly even rational Trumps last words before he left over three hours later were “Mike Pence let me down.” He heard the “hang Mike Pence chants” and did nothing.
Even when he saw on TV the Legislature running for their lives he did nothing.

Paul 8:29 – “So Scott do you believe T/rump was telling the truth when he said “a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away ” ?”
Paul – you realize you have now wandered all over the map in your quest to slay the Trump-dragon and are coming up empty?
First of all, it doesn’t matter one bit what Trump believed – it’s not illegal, immoral or unethical.
And it certainly doesn’t matter what I believe.
What IS known for a fact is that the hearings are a circus act for the rubes.
They roped you in and sold you a bag of popcorn to watch a bunch of illusions.
P T Barnum would be proud.
Enjoy the popcorn!

Should Trump be charged with Dereliction of Duty for sitting back watching the Capital being attacked by rioters for three hours and doing nothing even when begged by his staff and the Pentagon for help in stopping the riot? He was our Commander in Chief and the top Law Enforcement Officer in our country and he did nothing but sit and watch it on TV.
Here is the defination: ” Dereliction of duty is deliberate or accidental failure to do what you should do as part of your job. “

Should Biden be charged/ convicted of Dereliction of Duty (or impeachment) because HE has refused to enforce Immigration law which are current federal statues on the books? He has refused to protect our homeland? Defend America is to defend our borders, duh.

This is political Kabuki theater, not a legal proceeding.

Clumsy deflection from Bill to avoid the question as to whether Trump is guilty Dereliction of Duty for watching TV for over three hours while the Capital was invaded and looted and he did nothing to stop it.
