Powerline:

I have a prediction. I don’t think Biden’s debate face-plant will hurt him much with his core constituency, whites who earn over $200,000. Those voters are motivated by a combination of economic self-interest and an irrational hatred of Donald Trump. The large majority of them would vote for Biden if he died between now and the election.

"CDC Recommends New COVID-19 Vaccines For Nearly All Americans" To Hell with them. I wasn't going to get the first ones but cardio doc said I might die if not. They ruined my body and quality of life, stinking Pfizer and CDC. I should have listened to my own mind first.

The "vaccines" worked out well for some people.

QUOTE:

Dr. Fauci and his wife, Christine Grady, enjoyed over a two-fold increase in net worth during the COVID pandemic crisis. From the beginning of the crisis in 2019 to 2021, their net worth doubled and grew from $5 million to over $12.6 million.

"Western civilisation is being destroyed by its own decadence"

It is being destroyed by a cabal of people and groups who want to loot it. The biggest threat is communism. Most anti-West groups are at their core communist. What they do is infiltrate every organization. Elected offices, bureaucracies, companies, justice systems and courts and they influence the result to benefit them and their tribe. Most of the people in the West are simply trying to live their lives, they don't want to be elected to school boards or become judges and THAT is the problem. If you leave these seats of power and decision making open to those who would harm you then you will lose everything to them.

The CDC? A malignant agency of deception, misinformation and malice.

That brand is ruined and destitute. Shut them down and let that be end of their story.

That well describes most of the administrative state.

" his core constituency, whites who earn over $200,000"

His core constituency of whites who earn more than $200,000 from their cube dweller jobs they got with their college credential, i.e., petty bureaucrats. Not those earning over $200,000 doing something useful for others.

But yes, the "leach class" do have every incentive to cling to their Biden and Woke religion.

Now this constituency tends to be concentrated all together in urban monoculture cores so they impact the popular vote but far less the electoral college votes.

I will predict a completely missed revolution by the non-liberal arts/social science credentialed college grads joining with the non-college voters. Something that the media, social and MSM, will miss because those people are unseen by them.

Sorry but when I look at the Demorats it seems to me that their party consists of every outcast, misfit, degenerate, society has to offer. This is their core. The losers of society; the parasites; the wannabes; the crazies.

France has begun riot season, we are next. Biden's problems and thus the DNC's problems will require that the DNC call out their brownshirts (actually black block but politically the same thing) to riot in the streets and take the spotlight off them as they try to steal another election. NOW add to that situation that SCOTUS just ruled on Trump's immunity thus scuttling most of the left's warfare effort calling out the riot squad is inevitable. It's going to be a hot Summer in the big cities.

In the coming sturm and drang Biden will "drop out", Kamala will have family or health issues and will decide she cannot run as VP and Gavin Newsom will step in to save the nation and he will select a VP running mate who is diverse and loved at least by the left. AND he will win/steal the election. Your new president elect on the morning of Nov 6 will be Newsom.

Well, that’s quite the bit of truth telling in the Hirsi Ali article. The cognitive ability of feminists to think outside the: a woman needs a man, like a fish needs a bicycle, phrase of enlightenment, is null. Not quite null. If men didn’t exist, who would the feminists blame all their problems on? Maybe they should look in the mirror.

Judging by the reactions I saw among my liberal Facebook friends, Powerline is right.

I agree. For the most part, we do not have republicans and democrats. We have the uniparty and it has largely been in control since at least Kennedy. Reagan was, perhaps, a small interruption in the line but nothing stood in their way except Trump. It is evident he does not blend into the uniparty concept and I doubt if even half the republican party gives him much if any support.
It is the support he receives from the working class and the productive class that is driving the uniparty crazy. The media and the administrative state are apoplectic. The only question is if Trump can restrain and contain the current empire. We are no longer a functioning republic even with the SCOTUS making attempts to constrain the empire.

'Massive' PR Campaign Underway To Reject Calls For Biden To Drop Out

QUOTE:

Following this weekend's conclave between President Joe Biden and his family advisors, a 'massive' PR campaign is underway to reject calls for him to drop his re-election campaign and rally Democrats to stop publicly debating about his age and future . . .

. . . According to the report, Biden has 'zero interest' in stepping aside, while First Lady Jill Biden, family and friends agree

Of course.

There is a whole army of Biden sycophants and co-conspirators who are feeling threatened. Their crimes might be uncovered.

Biden's De Facto EV Mandate At Risk After Supreme Court "Chevron" Ruling

QUOTE:

“There have been longstanding debates about whether and to what extent the (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) has the authority to regulate emissions from mobile sources,” Sherry Jackman, an environmental litigator and compliance counselor at Greenberg Glusker in Los Angeles, told Reuters.

"SCOTUS delivers a kill shot to big government." If only. Wishful thinking on someone's part. It's a nice step, but that's all. Go after qualified immunity for decision makers in the federal bureaucracy. Pass legislation that makes the people who write regulations that expand government power, but not those who write regulations that reduce government power personally finically liable if a federal court declares their rule illegal or unconstitutional.

Americans Are Obsessed With the Wrong Trucks.

The author makes the fatal error of trying to lump all truck buyers into the same silo. For the suburban truck owner who uses their truck like a station wagon and never leaves pavement, yes, smaller may be better.

But there are a large number of truck buyers who use their trucks in ways a small vehicle just won't work. Their heavy towing and load bearing requirements far outpace what these little light toy suburban trucks can provide.

I've pulled trailers that weigh more than these little trucks.
