Leaked: Biden Whined About Negative Press to Reporters in Off-The-Record Conversation

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden chastised the media coverage he receives in a conversation with reporters, according to a new report.

Multiple sources told Politico the president spent much of this exchange during a recent Air Force One trip to “criticize the quality and tenor of press coverage of his administration,” the outlet’s West Wing Playbook disclosed Wednesday.

The comments were made during an off-the-record session, essentially meaning that Biden spoke with the understanding that they would not be published. (Read more from “Leaked: Biden Whined About Negative Press to Reporters in Off-The-Record Conversation” HERE)

Insiders — And Hunter Himself — Say Scandal-Clad First Son Is Joe Biden’s ‘Closest Adviser’

/0 Comments/in , /by

As our aged president appears to be slipping cognitively, as well as slipping literally on the stairs of Air Force One, as he did again Wednesday, the whole world is wondering who ­really is in charge at the White House. . .

But there is another alarming prospect: the “smartest man” Joe Biden knows, his son, the crack addict-turned-blowpipe artist Hunter Biden.

Friends of Hunter say he discusses the finer points of Ukraine policy and other matters of state around the dinner table with his father on his regular weekend visits home to Delaware or Camp David.

One former friend describes him as his father’s “closest adviser.”

Hunter also boasted to his former business partner, Tony Bobulinski, by the pool of the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood in April 2017, that he had his father’s ear and got him to do what he wanted by ­bypassing his gatekeepers and speaking to him directly.

Ben Carson Analyzes Biden’s Mental Capacity

/0 Comments/in , /by

Dr. Ben Carson, a neurosurgeon and former Republican presidential candidate, cast doubts on President Joe Biden’s mental fitness during an interview with The Daily Caller News Foundation, pointing to his frequent gaffes as evidence the president is not all there mentally.

“Well, certainly you want someone in that office who’s a peak performer, not someone whose staff has to constantly come behind him and clean up what he’s been saying,” Carson told TheDCNF. “Someone who can complete a sentence without a teleprompter would be helpful, as well.”

Less than 40% of independents think Biden is “mentally fit” whereas 61% “have doubts” about his mental fitness, according to a May Harvard-Hall poll. 83% of Republicans and 19% of Democrats also “have doubts” about Biden’s mental fitness. . .

“You’re talking about somebody who has the nuclear codes, who has so many things that are important to Americans in his hands,” Carson said. . .

“I don’t want to make a diagnosis on him but we really should be in a place as a nation where we’re willing to do mental status tests on our leaders, particularly our president, on an annual basis,” Carson said. “And if they can’t pass that mental status test, action needs to be taken.”

DeSantis Reacts to Straw Poll Showing Him Leading Against Trump (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis reacted to a straw poll showing him in the lead against former President Donald Trump for the nomination in a potential 2024 presidential run.

The poll was held at the 2022 Western Conservative Summit Saturday where DeSantis acquired 71% support while Trump held nearly 68% favorability. Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz came in third with 29% approval. A reporter asked the governor whether he has decided to run for president.

“I don’t do straw polls,” DeSantis responded. “They just put my name to these things, you know? So, what am I supposed to do? Like they sell merchandise and everything. I’d kind of like to get royalties on that.”

A Wednesday straw poll conducted at the Wisconsin Republican Convention found DeSantis narrowly leading Trump for the nomination in a potential 2024 presidential race. DeSantis held 38% while the former president acquired 32%. (Read more from “DeSantis Reacts to Straw Poll Showing Him Leading Against Trump (VIDEO)” HERE)

Abortion Activists Send ‘Special Message’ to Kavanaugh’s Wife and Kids — After Would-be Assassin Is Caught by His Home

/0 Comments/in , /by

Pro-abortion activist group Ruth Sent Us sent a “special message” to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s wife and daughters — on the same day that a would-be assassin, armed with a knife and a gun, was arrested near the justice’s property.

The group, named for the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, shared several tweets after reports circulated about the man who was arrested near Kavanaugh’s home — a young man from California who said that in order to give his own life “purpose,” he intended to kill Kavanaugh. He also said that he was angry about the leaked early opinion draft, written by Justice Samuel Alito, which indicated the court might be preparing to strike down Roe v. Wade.

After announcing plans to forge ahead with “peaceful and joyful” protests — outside the homes of Alito, Kavanaugh, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, and Chief Justice John Roberts — in the coming days, they directed the next message to Kavanaugh and his family.

“We offer our thoughts & prayers to Brett & Ashley Kavanaugh after a California man arrived by taxi near their home, armed with a gun & knife, then called the police on himself to confess his murderous rage against the abusive alcoholic ‘Justice.’ We didn’t send him,” the next tweet read.

More Evidence of Voter Fraud: Democrat Pleads Guilty to Illegally Stuffing the Ballot Box

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Democratic Congressman Michael “Ozzie” Myers pleaded guilty this week to illegally stuffing Philadelphia ballot boxes by digitally “ringing up votes” in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018. Myers also bribed a judge, who was indicted in 2020 for rigging a number of elections.

“Myers admitted in court to bribing the Judge of Elections for the 39th Ward, 36th Division in South Philadelphia, Domenick J. Demuro, in a fraudulent scheme over several years. Demuro, who was charged separately and pleaded guilty in May 2020, was responsible for overseeing the entire election process and all voter activities of his Division in accord with federal and state election laws,” DOJ released in a statement. “Myers admitted to bribing Demuro to illegally add votes for certain candidates of their mutual political party in primary elections. Some of these candidates were individuals running for judicial office whose campaigns had hired Myers, and others were candidates for various federal, state, and local elective offices that Myers favored for a variety of reasons.”

Frustrated Democrats Slam Joe Biden for Weak Crisis Responses: ‘Be the F***Ing President’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Frustrated Democrats on Wednesday slammed President Joe Biden for responding to multiple crises “flatfooted.”

Members of Biden’s own party are irritated as the president has been caught off guard by multiple crises all at once. Some have argued the crises are so damaging that Biden is losing control of public perception.

“It’s really simple: ‘Be the f***ing president!” a Democrat strategist told the Hill. “I realize it’s tough and you’re drinking out of a fire hose every single day, but there are things you can do to control the public perception and they haven’t done any of that.”

Combatting 40-year-high inflation, soaring gas prices, and the baby formula shortage all at once, Biden’s media team has shown “naiveté” in controlling the media narrative, Democrat strategist Christy Setzer told the Hill.

“It may come down to not understanding what they’re up against — both the media environment and today’s GOP,” Setzer said. “Biden did speak out on guns, on baby formula, on inflation … but the traditional tactics aren’t breaking through, and it doesn’t seem as though they’re taking in that information, re-trenching, and trying new approaches when it’s falling flat.” (Read more from “Frustrated Democrats Slam Joe Biden for Weak Crisis Responses: ‘Be the F***Ing President’” HERE)

WATCH: Wealthy Democrat Senator Brags About How Gas Prices Don’t Affect Her; As Gas Prices Break Records, World Bank Warns of 1970S-style ‘Stagflation’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. During Tuesday’s Senate Finance Committee hearing to discuss “The President’s Fiscal Year 2023 Budget,” Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) displayed just how tone-deaf she is on gas prices affecting her constituents when she bragged about driving an electric car. When it comes to the price at the pump, Sen. Stabenow said, “It didn’t matter how high [the price] was.”

“After waiting a long time to finally have enough chips in this country to finally get my electric vehicle, I got it and drove it from Michigan to here this last weekend and went by every single gas station, and it didn’t matter how high it was,” Sen. Stabenow said about gas prices. “And so I’m looking forward to the opportunity for us to move to vehicles that aren’t going to be dependent on the whims of the oil companies and the international markets,” she continued.

Our friends at Twitchy highlighted some of the best responses to Stabenow’s remarks.

AAA’s map of gas prices shows that Michigan is facing some of the highest gas prices in the country, with the average price of gas in the state costing $5.171 a gallon. (Read more from “Wealthy Democrat Senator Brags About How Gas Prices Don’t Affect Her” HERE)

As Gas Prices Break Records, World Bank Warns of 1970S-style ‘Stagflation’

By Newsweek. As U.S. gas prices reached an all-time high, the World Bank issued a warning that a combination of rising inflation and a slowdown in economic growth could lead the global economy into 1970s-style “stagflation.”

The price of gas in the U.S. hit $4.91 per gallon on Tuesday, according to AAA. On the same day, the World Bank issued its latest Global Economic Prospects report—which compared current economic conditions around the world with those during the “stagflation of the 1970s,” spelling potentially bad news for the global economy due to issues including fiscal damage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

“The war in Ukraine, lockdowns in China, supply-chain disruptions, and the risk of stagflation are hammering growth,” World Bank President David Malpass said in a statement. “For many countries, recession will be hard to avoid. Markets look forward, so it is urgent to encourage production and avoid trade restrictions. Changes in fiscal, monetary, climate and debt policy are needed to counter capital misallocation and inequality.”

However, it was also noted that the current economy differs from that of the 1970s in several important areas, including the U.S. dollar currently being strong, smaller percentage increases in commodity prices, strong “balance sheets of major financial institutions” and better controls on price stability through central banks and a track record of meeting inflation targets.
