B-Man

Hoo-Boy ! and not one other liberal there pointed out to her how bad this sign was.

Back to the Biden thread.

So much for the "Russians blew up their own pipeline" crowd.

bump.

Gorsuch lowers the boom. "Whatever their own views, judges are duty-bound to respect "the hierarchy of the federal court system created by the Constitution and Congress"

Another win. . . . . . . . with a beatdown from Justice Gorsuch. "Whatever their own views, judges are duty-bound to respect "the hierarchy of the federal court system created by the Constitution and Congress" Damned straight.

Anyone see this on the 'mainstream media' ? This Might Be the Biggest Development in the Biden Health Cover-Up Scandal Matt Margolis House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer dropped a bombshell on Thursday when he revealed that Ian Sams, the former White House spokesperson who spent years defending Joe Biden’s mental acuity, admitted under oath that he interacted with Biden only twice during his entire tenure. Comer said the revelations cast serious doubt on who was really calling the shots inside the Biden White House. “Wow. That was probably the most informative transcribed interview we’ve had thus far,” Comer told reporters after Sams’ testimony. “I’ll give Mr. Sams credit — he answered our questions. And one of the most shocking things to me is… he communicated with Joe Biden two times. He saw Joe Biden, talked to Joe Biden two times the entire stint as White House spokesperson.” Comer contrasted Sams’ lack of access with the public image he projected. “Every day, he would tweet and issue statements from the White House podium, combating everything we were doing in the Oversight Committee, combating the Hur report, saying he didn’t know,” Comer said. “In fact, Robert Hur spent more time with Joe Biden than Ian Sams did.” Comer also tied the testimony to the ongoing controversy surrounding Biden’s prolific use of the autopen to sign documents during his presidency. “That autopen was used excessively, and yet no one can say for certain that Joe Biden was given the orders to use it,” Comer explained. “If you’re in the White House 75% of the time when a document is signed, why not have Joe Biden sign it himself? Why go through all the bureaucracy of using the autopen?” https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2025/08/21/this-might-be-the-biggest-development-in-the-biden-health-cover-up-scandal-n4942916

Yes it is. But you forget sir, the rules do not apply to the "good liberals" who know what is best for us. .

I will be the first to admit, he is not really "on patrol". but he is getting out there and mingling with the police, the Guard and the people. Forget Biden, can anyone see Obama doing this ?

No other response ...........................................REALLY ? It is all some of you talked about for months. Trump’s massive $500M civil fraud fine in AG Tish James’ case thrown out by NY appeals court A New York appeals court Thursday threw out the massive $464 million judgment dealt to President Trump after he was found liable at a civil trial for business fraud. The Appellate Division, First Department, overturned the whopping fine in the case in which Trump, 79, was found to have fraudulently inflated his net worth by billions of dollars over a decade to get better loan and insurance terms. Trump would have had to pay a total of more than $500 million, including more than $100 million in interest, had the February 2024 ruling from Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron been upheld. https://nypost.com/2025/08/21/us-news/trumps-massive-500m-civil-fraud-fine-in-ag-tish-james-case-thrown-out-by-ny-appeals-court/

REMINDER:

How Trump’s tariffs bamboozled the EU. REMEMBER the European Union’s triumphalism about avoiding the worst of Donald Trump’s threatened tariffs? Well, the EU came off worse, and still has not reached a settlement, even while it claims a resolution. On July 27, the EU agreed a US tariff rate of 15 per cent on a range of goods. Just think about that for a minute. Imagine yourself in 2024, considering the possibility that the EU – the self-described agent of European economic growth – would accept a whopping tariff on its exports to America, its largest national market. In 2024, the average tariff on EU exports was around 2.4 per cent! The 15 per cent tariff applies to many goods that the EU considers competitive with American goods, including automobiles, auto parts, pharmaceuticals and semi-conductors. These sectors had been scheduled with American tariffs from 25 per cent (automobiles and parts) to 30 per cent (pharmaceuticals). Did the EU accept 15 per cent in those sectors as a bitter pill so that it would be better off overall? No. The average tariff on US imports from the EU will surge to 17.5 per cent in 2026. Some of the EU’s strongest sectors face even steeper tariffs. For steel, aluminium and copper, US tariffs remain at 50 per cent. US tariffs will reduce the EU’s annual gross domestic product by 0.2 per cent, and industrial output by 0.3 per cent. And the impact will be worse for some members. The European Commission (which, after all, is not accountable to member states or citizens) often makes deals that it can spin as a resolution to a crisis without admitting the downsides for member states. https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/how-trumps-tariffs-bamboozled-the-eu/ .

DC just had a murder-free week, and yes, Dems, Trump did that. As the wailing and gnashing of teeth over the Trump administration’s takeover of the Washington DC police force begins to fade, the results are coming in, and they are nothing short of extraordinary. As of Wednesday afternoon, the nation’s capital has had no murders for seven days, something that had not been achieved since March and something I can find no recent record of in summer months when the murder rate is typically at its highest. Last Monday, when a man was tragically gunned down in Logan Circle just hours after the Trump takeover, Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., took to social media to say that “Trump owns this. No word if the congressman agrees Trump also owns the lives saved this past week. And it’s not just murder, according to the local police union. Robbery dropped 46% in the week after the takeover, carjackings were down a whopping 83%, and violent crime down 22%. Who could possibly argue against that? https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/david-marcus-dc-just-had-murder-free-week-yes-dems-trump-did .

CIVIL RIGHTS UPDATE: Federal District Court Rules NY’s Non-Resident Carry Ban Violates the Second Amendment. This ruling will, of course, be appealed. The game, after all, is to delay, delay, delay.

End thread. Texas Finally Passes New Congressional Maps by Matt Vespa It’s over. Texas has a new congressional map for the 2026 midterms, though it took over two weeks after state Democrats unnecessarily fled to prevent a quorum. The new map gives Republicans five winnable seats, all majority Hispanic districts. Democrats could’ve said, ‘ok, let’s fight for these voters who are gettable,’ but they decided to make a hash out of it. First, the messaging was abysmal, coupled with the fact that no one cared. Even the legacy press said these Texas Democrats ran away. They were off message from the get-go. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/mattvespa/2025/08/20/its-done-texas-finally-passes-new-congressional-maps-n2662119 In response, Massachusetts just called a special session to redraw their districts. Now instead of 9-D and 0-R, they will have 9-D and 0-R. .
