Anyone remember the "Real Men of Genius" campaign - One of the best (even though I don't drink Bud Light) Oh the humanity........
  2. The witless wonder strikes again........The epitome of "Partisan" and he thinks its funny..... No laughing matter: Biden is slammed for cracking a JOKE when asked his views on transgender school shooter's motive On Tuesday, the president again took an inappropriate tone when discussing the tragic school shooting in Nashville When told that Senator Josh Hawley believes the shooting at a Christian school was a hate crime against Christians, Biden said: 'Well, I probably don't then' Biden was previously criticized for making several jokes about ice cream before addressing the shooting on Monday

  4. You, reader, need a Benedict Option. We all do. The hour is very late. Interesting read for sure.......Morality and civility are certainly under assault......
  5. https://nypost.com/2023/03/27/bidens-bizarre-ice-cream-joke-in-nashville-shooting-remarks/ WASHINGTON — Not the time, Joe. President Biden joked Monday that he only showed up to a White House event because he heard there would be ice cream — before addressing the horrific mass shooting that left six dead at a Nashville elementary school hours earlier. “My name is Joe Biden. I’m Dr. Jill Biden’s husband,” the 80-year-old president began his remarks at an East Room gathering of women-owned businesses. “And I eat Jeni’s ice cream — chocolate chip. I came down because I heard there was chocolate chip ice cream,” he said. “By the way, I have a whole refrigerator full upstairs,” Biden added at his only scheduled public appearance of the day. “You think I’m kidding? I’m not.” SF thinks we can all agree that we have a brainless twit for POTUS (there literally can be no debate about this).......But even so, the fact that the room he was addressing erupted into laughter in the wake of such a tragedy says more about who voted for this guy than anything - and that there is no more denying SF's years ago reference to the degradation of society is real.......
  6. https://nypost.com/2023/03/27/white-house-slams-gop-on-gun-control-following-nasvhille-school-shooting/ “How many more children have to be murdered before Republicans in Congress will step up and act to pass the assault weapons ban, to close loopholes in our background check system or to require the safe storage of guns,” she added. “We need to do something.” Can someone actually come up with a bonafide definition of an "assault weapon" besides how it looks or how many rounds it holds? A true "automatic weapon" has been banned from private ownership (without federal permission) since the 1930's and is normally military. https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/25/text “(40) The term ‘semiautomatic assault weapon’ means any of the following, regardless of country of manufacture or caliber of ammunition accepted: “(A) A semiautomatic rifle that— “(i) has the capacity to accept a detachable ammunition feeding device; and “(ii) has any 1 of the following: “(I) A pistol grip. “(II) A forward grip. “(III) A folding, telescoping, or detachable stock, or a stock that is otherwise foldable or adjustable in a manner that operates to reduce the length, size, or any other dimension, or otherwise enhances the concealability, of the weapon. “(IV) A grenade launcher. “(V) A barrel shroud. “(VI) A threaded barrel. “(B) A semiautomatic rifle that has a fixed ammunition feeding device with the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds, except for an attached tubular device designed to accept, and capable of operating only with, .22 caliber rimfire ammunition. “(C) Any part, combination of parts, component, device, attachment, or accessory that is designed or functions to accelerate the rate of fire of a semiautomatic firearm but not convert the semiautomatic firearm into a machinegun. “(D) A semiautomatic pistol that— “(i) has an ammunition feeding device that is not a fixed ammunition feeding device; and “(ii) has any 1 of the following: “(I) A threaded barrel. “(II) A second pistol grip. “(III) A barrel shroud. “(IV) The capacity to accept a detachable ammunition feeding device at some location outside of the pistol grip. “(V) A semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm. “(VI) A manufactured weight of 50 ounces or more when unloaded. “(VII) A buffer tube, stabilizing brace or similar component that protrudes horizontally behind the pistol grip, and is designed or redesigned to allow or facilitate a firearm to be fired from the shoulder. “(E) A semiautomatic pistol with a fixed ammunition feeding device that has the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds. “(F) A semiautomatic shotgun that— “(i) has the capacity to accept a detachable ammunition feeding device or a fixed ammunition feeding device that has the capacity to accept more than 5 rounds; and “(ii) has any 1 of the following: “(I) A folding, telescoping, or detachable stock. “(II) A pistol grip or bird's head grip. “(III) A forward grip. “(IV) A grenade launcher. “(G) Any shotgun with a revolving cylinder.
  7. Maybe it's different in the White House, but in the real world, normally it's the boss's responsibility to DELEGATE responsibility before complaining someone isn't "taking anything off your plate" or "rising to the occasion"......IDK https://nypost.com/2023/03/23/biden-irked-by-kamala-harris-not-rising-to-occasion/ WASHINGTON — Two former White House officials said President Biden is frustrated with Vice President Kamala Harris’ performance — even if he remains committed to keeping her as his running mate in the 2024 election, a new report reveals. The 80-year-old Biden, who has gone out of his way to praise Harris in recent public remarks, reportedly has griped about his No. 2’s reluctance to take on risky assignments. “A point of tension in their relationship is that I don’t think that the president sees her as somebody who takes anything off of his plate” due to a “fear of messing up,” one former White House official told Reuters. Another former White House official told the wire service that Biden, already the oldest-ever president, intends to seek a second term in part because he’s concerned that Harris may not be able to beat former President Donald Trump, who is seeking the GOP nomination. “If he did not think she was capable, he would not have picked her. But it is a question of consistently rising to the occasion,” that former official said.
  8. You would think that eventually the left would learn to stop giving the former POTUS the air time he relishes so much. It's pretty bad when even the Grand Jury in this case it is "skeptical"...... https://nypost.com/2023/03/23/why-braggs-case-against-trump-is-falling-apart/ Trump has said for years that Democrats have weaponized the criminal justice system against him and Bragg just gave him proof positive to support that claim. With this raw political prosecution, Bragg fulfilled the narrative of Trump, who is rising in the polls at the very time that Biden is plunging. The expectation is still that Bragg can get an indictment even out of a skeptical grand jury. He could then bank on a favorable and motivated judge and jury. Moreover, even if the case ultimately fails on appeal, many in New York will still praise Bragg.
  9. Thus, as various pundits have argued, it seems wildly implausible to suppose this seven‐year‐old case would have been pursued if the defendant were anyone else but Trump. And if he wasn't already on the slate of potential Republican Presidential contenders for 2024. That sealed the deal for Mr. Bragg...... His people (supporters and ilk) only want to see Trump's head on a platter not on a ballot, no matter what......
  10. A very challenging wheelchair path......SF is guessing not ADA compliant......
  11. Of course it is......Think what you want, but the top story on the morning news today was about a former President's alleged payment to a porn star back in 2016 - Not about the real factual money that came directly from China to the many Biden family members since 2017 for nothing in particular (kinda like the money that went to the Clinton family......) https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11878715/Fox-anchor-suggests-Trumps-possible-arrest-timed-distract-probe-Biden.html Fox News anchor Maria Bartiromo suggested Trump's potential indictment over hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels may be part of a plot to distract from recent revelations about Joe Biden's questionable family finances. Speaking on Sunday Morning Futures with former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, Bartiromo said it was 'disturbing' that news of Trump's indictment was broken just days after a Congressional committee released documents that appeared to indicate members of Biden's family were paid more than $1million by the Chinese government. The report was released by House Republicans on Thursday and showed the president's son, Hunter Biden, the widow of his son Beau Biden, and other relatives of the president's family received the cash in 2017 from an associate who had entered into a business deal with a Chinese energy company. Just two days later, Trump wrote on Truth Social that he'd received information indicating the Manhattan District Attorney's office was planning to arrest him this Tuesday. Speaking to Bartriromo, Ratcliffe said this timing did not feel like a coincidence. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, who led the investigation into the Biden family finances, also appeared on the show and said the timing was suspicious. Fox News anchor Maria Bartiromo (left) spoke with former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe on Sunday Morning Futures On Saturday evening, Trump appeared at the NCAA Wrestling Championships in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he flashed a defiant fist to the crowd and received a standing ovatione After discussing Biden's foreign policy record with Ratcliffe, Bartiromo asked him whether or not she thought the timing of Trump indictment news was a coincidence. 'This is so incredibly disturbing, do you think there's a coincidence that as soon as James Comer comes out exposing those bank records that suddenly Trump is going to be indicted?' she said. 'Your were just talking about this soft approach from Joe Biden to China, we're constantly asking, why, why not protect America? Is it a coincidence now that Trump is going to get indicted on Tuesday after these bank records were revealed last week?' Ratcliffe said he did not believe in coincidences, and that he hoped the investigation into Biden would not be deterred. 'I don't really believe much in coincidence, so I do think that it's important what Congressman Comer is doing, and it's a way for the American people to really find out what's happening. And I hope that that effort continues, and I think that it will.' Comer himself joined the conversation and said the timing raised eyebrows. 'It's very odd that this would come out just the very next day after I revealed bank records which showed that the Biden family, the president in particular, hasn't been truthful with respect to his family receiving parents directly from the Chinese Communist Party,' he said. 'So it almost looks like it's an effort to detract, But at very least, it's another example of a two-tiered system of justice.'
  12. https://nypost.com/2023/03/16/pantry-porn-rooted-in-racist-sexist-behavior-loyola-doctor/ “Cleanliness has historically been used as a cultural gatekeeping mechanism to reinforce status distinctions based on a vague understanding of ‘niceness’: nice people, with nice yards, in nice houses, make for nice neighborhoods. “What lies beneath the surface of this anti-messiness, pro-niceness stance is a history of classist, racist and sexist social structures.” “Pantry porn, as a status symbol, relies on the promise of making daily domestic work easier. But if women are largely responsible for the work required to maintain the perfectly organized pantry, it’s critical to ask: easier for whom?” Drenten said. So because Mrs. SF keeps a mostly tidy house, and I take deep measures to keep the lawn mowed, watered and the landscaping neat, we are classist, sexist racists? Jeez - get a real job lady.....
  13. https://nypost.com/2023/03/16/treasury-sec-yellen-to-say-us-banking-system-remains-sound-on-capitol-hill/ Treasury boss Yellen to say US banking system ‘remains sound’ on Capitol Hill Reminds of something......
  14. Best description yet of Janet Yellen - "Government finance's version of Anthony Fauci"
  15. So what POTUS is saying is "look like you want to try to enforce the ALREADY EXISTING LAWS ON THE BOOKS!!!!" There is no new "law" coming from the Executive Branch, (since it doesn't create laws) this is merely an attempt to make the underinformed think the administration is marching out a bunch of new gun control restrictions/rules. But Kudos to POTUS for calling on his AG to maybe try enforcing laws....... https://nypost.com/2023/03/14/biden-to-beef-up-background-checks-on-gun-sales/ President Biden will issue an executive order Tuesday increasing the number of background checks before gun purchases and strengthening the use of “red flag” laws — in what the White House has touted as the most comprehensive policy the president can enact without Congress. The president will unveil the beefed-up policy in an afternoon speech from Monterey Park, Calif., where a man armed with an assault-style rifle opened fire during a Lunar New Year celebration in January, killing 11 people. Despite the passage of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act last June, the White House said the administration’s calls for banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, requiring universal background checks and repealing gun makers’ immunity from liability have been stymied by Congress. Biden’s executive order, marshaling a cabinet-level response, will move the US as close to universal background checks as possible under existing laws without requiring Congress to pass additional legislation. It will direct Attorney General Merrick Garland “to do everything he can to ensure that firearms sellers who do not realize they are required to run background checks under existing law, or who are willfully violating existing law, become compliant with background check requirements,” the White House said in a fact sheet released Tuesday. Biden will also ask Garland to carry out a plan to stop firearms dealers whose federal licenses have been revoked or surrendered from selling guns. The order will also raise public awareness of “red flag” orders, which allow a judge to remove a firearm from someone deemed likely to hurt themselves or others, and calling on members of the cabinet, law enforcement agencies, educators, health care providers and community leaders to encourage their use. Biden will ask the Federal Trade Commission to issue a public report on how gun makers market firearms to minors and how the manufacturers use military imagery to advertise weapons to the general public. Federal law enforcement agencies will also be directed to develop regulations mandating that state and local authorities better report ballistics data to the federal clearinghouse. The National Integrated Ballistics Information Network allows federal, state and local law enforcement agencies to match shell casings to guns. As part of the executive order, Biden is calling on every federal agency involved in implementing the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act to “maximize the benefits of the law” and increase public awareness of the resources it makes available.
  16. Today he works for a plumbing company and takes night classes at a Nashville union. The pay is modest, Williams said, but eventually he expects to earn far more than friends who took quick jobs after high school. He even thinks he’s better off than some who went to college — he knows too many who dropped out or took on debt for degrees they never used. “In the long run, I’m going to be way more set than any of them,” he said. Good on him!!
  17. Why is anyone surprised by this? Read the fine print of any point of purchase online or wireless before your purchase and you would see that your right to privacy is freely forfeited by none other than yourself and they can sell it to whomever they wish. (Even the FBI) This includes the location data acquired by your cell phone. (No surprise)
  18. SMH...... Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, R-Ark., said, "It’s International Women’s Day – a good time to remember that Democrats can’t even tell you what a woman is." https://www.foxnews.com/media/twitter-laughs-groans-jill-biden-gives-biological-male-women-courage-award-game-ladies First lady Jill Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken were slammed Wednesday for presenting a biological male from Argentina with an award for women on International Women's Day. This year's annual International Women of Courage Awards ceremony at the White House honored "11 extraordinary women from around the world who are working to build a brighter future for all," according to a State Department press release. Argentinian Alba Rueda was introduced at the ceremony as a "transgender woman who was kicked out of classrooms, barred for sitting for exams, refused job opportunities, subjected to violence, and rejected by her family. But in the face of these challenges, she worked to end violence and discrimination against the LGBTQ plus community in Argentina."
  19. Sounds incredible - With or without nuts? WTF is "vegan" chocolate and why?
