Harris Taking Solo Calls With World Leaders as Biden Battles Memory Problems, Half of Americans are Not Confident in Biden’s Fitness For the Job

FoxNews.com reports that

Vice President Kamala Harris had another call with a foreign leader Tuesday, independent of President Biden.

Harris spoke with the prime minister of Norway, Erna Solberg, where Harris “affirmed her commitment to deepening the strong alliance between Norway and the United States.”

” The Vice President thanked the Prime Minister for Norway’s close security partnership with the United States and generous contributions to development and health security efforts around the world,” according to a readout of the call.

Harris previously took calls alone with French President Emanuel Macron and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as well as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, shortly after the president put in a call to the French and Canadian leaders himself.

Less than two months into the new administration, Harris’ frequent solo calls with world leaders signal that she’ll engage deeply even in foreign policy, though her experience has been almost entirely in the domestic realm. Leaders around the world could view the vice president as Biden’s heir-apparent and be eager to build a relationship.

“She will be seen by everyone as a potential president in waiting,” one European ambassador told Politico in February. “Much more than in previous presidencies.”

In a related story from Newsmax.com…

Half of America doubts President Joe Biden is “physically or mentally” fit for the job, according to the latest poll by Rasmussen Reports.

It is an alarming finding after reports of President Biden failing to remember the name of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, calling him “the guy that runs that outfit over there,” the New York Post reported Monday.

The 2-question survey asked:

  1. “How concerned are you that President Biden has not held a press conference?”
  2. “How confident are you that Joe Biden is physically and mentally up to the job of being President of the United States?”

The two might be related, and the responses were, too — as 50% of likely voters lacked confidence in President Biden’s fitness for office, while 52% of likely voters were concerned he has yet to hold a press conference, including 32% who are “very concerned.”

“More than six weeks since his inauguration, President Biden still hasn’t held his first White House press conference, and half of voters are worried about his ability to do the job,” the Rasmussen Reports summary read.

The headline from the FoxNews.com article states “VP Harris continues taking solo calls with world leaders as Biden struggles with memory lapses”.

As I wrote yesterday, that was evident when he could not remember the names of the Pentagon and his Secretary of Defense in a military announcement seen on live television..

A lot of fun has been had at Biden’s expense over the fact that he is losing his war with dementia.

However, in terms of the safety of our country’s citizens and our nation’s continued existence, it is definitely not a laughing matter.

Any American who paid attention during the campaign soon figured out that Biden has some serious mental and physical health issues.

It was one thing to over look his inappropriate behavior during the Obama Presidency when he was just the Vice-President and Obama, Susan Rice, and Valerie Jarret were running the show, anyway.

However, when the time came for Biden to start appearing during the Democrat Primaries and then, the Presidential Campaign itself, it was quite obvious that “Lunch Bucket Joe” was shy a potato chip or two.

Now, the President of the United States of America reminds average Americans of their relatives who live in nursing homes whom they have not seen in a while because they cannot bear to witness them deteriorating like Biden is.

HIs wife, “Dr.” Jill Biden and the rest of his Handlers can try as hard as they can to hide his condition.

Unfortunately, as we have noticed, Joe is declining physically as well as mentally.

Vice-President Kamala Harris and the Democrat Elites know that Joe’s time in the Oval Office is limited.

That is another reason why Harris is talking to world leaders directly.

She might as well be ready to assume the Presidency.

Biden’s tenure as President will end before the year is out….perhaps by Fall.

Biden’s First Prime-Time Television Address to Air Thursday, Has “Senior Moment” on Live TV Yesterday

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Back to America Last

Newsmax.com reports that

President Joe Biden will make his first prime-time television address Thursday, exactly one year after the coronavirus pandemic shut down most of the nation. It will be his first major address since Inauguration Day.

More than 525,000 Americans have died from COVID-19, though 30 million people are fully vaccinated, with millions more expected to be inoculated by this summer.

“The President will deliver his first prime-time address to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the COVID-19 shutdown on Thursday. He will discuss the many sacrifices the American people have made over the last year and the grave loss communities and families across the country have suffered,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said at Monday’s briefing.

Psaki said Biden looks forward to “highlighting the role that Americans will play in beating the virus and moving the country toward getting back to normal.”

Biden has pushed back several major firsts for a president, in part due to the pandemic. He has not held a formal press briefing, and has not scheduled a date for his first joint session address to Congress, though NBC News last week reported that the latter likely would be pushed to April.

“Our hope is to be able to do it in the well of the House,” an official told NBC News. “But there are a lot of factors that go into determining whether we’re able to.”

Former President Donald Trump played a significant role in the development of a COVID vaccine with Operation Warp Speed, a program created by his administration to incentivize pharmaceutical companies to create a vaccine in record time.

Biden has sought to speed up delivery of the vaccine, pledging 150 million COVID vaccinations in his first 100 days.

The president’s TV address is expected to come after he signs the $1.9 trillion COVID stimulus package, which passed the Senate on Saturday.

The World Health Organization declared the coronavirus a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Trump declared a national emergency in the U.S. on March 13, 2020, essentially shutting down the economy for nearly a year.

Boys and girls, do you know why they made that announcement yesterday?

Two reasons:

The so-called “COvid-19 Stimulus Bill should be ready for Biden to sign on Thursday morning.

That way, he can brag on how he has rescued Americans in their moment of need, even though he has had nothing to do with the vaccination roll-out, which began under President Trump.

And, the other reason that he will address the nation on Thursday is the fact that it will take the White House three days to tape the address and to edit it to make Joe Biden intelligible.

As you saw in the tweet above, per the New York Post…

President Biden on Monday seemed to forget Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s name at a White House event — calling the Pentagon chief “the guy who runs that outfit over there.”

Biden was announcing the nomination of two female generals to lead US military combatant commands.

“And I want to thank the sec — the, the, ah former general. I keep calling him general, but my, my — the guy who runs that outfit over there,” Biden said.

“I want to make sure we thank the secretary for all he’s done to try to implement what we just talked about. And for recommending these two women for promotion.”

Earlier at the event, Biden mentioned the Defense Department leader by his name, “Secretary Austin,” while appearing to read from a teleprompter.

Biden, 78, has previously struggled with the names of his cabinet secretary selections. In December, he mispronounced the name of his nominee for the Department of Health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra, before correcting himself with a different mispronunciation.

“Dr.” Jill Biden and the Democrat Elite are doing their best to cover up Biden’s deteriorating health as he continues to lose his battle with dementia.

However, every time they allow him to appear before the cameras, they are taking a chance that he will have a “Senior Moment” and spoil their charade.

Average Americans living here in the Heartland have been cognizant of Joe’s condition for quite a while now.

His handlers all but shouted it from the rooftops when they had him campaign from his basement.

Then, when they absolutely HAD to allow him to appear in public, his metal collapse was there for the cameras to record and for the few Democrats who attended his campaign speeches to witness live.

Joe Biden has no business being the Leader of the Free World, electorally or mentally.

That is why our enemies, like Iran and North Korea, are becoming bold enough to start causing trouble…again.

They neither respect nor fear the Democrat Puppet in the White House.

Texas Gov. Abbott Deploys National Guard and State Troopers to Protect State’s Southern Border From Biden’s Illegal “Influx”

On By kingsjesterIn Politics1 Comment

Breitbart.com reports that

Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced the deployment of the state’s National Guard and State Troopers to respond to the growing border crisis.

Governor Abbott announced Operation Lone Star “to combat the smuggling of people and drugs into Texas” on Saturday. The operation will integrate the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) with the National Guard, Abbott said. He is ordering the deployment of air, ground, marine, and tactical border security assets to high threat areas.

“The crisis at our southern border continues to escalate because of Biden Administration policies that refuse to secure the border and invite illegal immigration,” the governor said in a written statement Saturday evening. “Texas supports legal immigration but will not be an accomplice to the open border policies that cause, rather than prevent, a humanitarian crisis in our state and endanger the lives of Texans. We will surge the resources and law enforcement personnel needed to confront this crisis.”

Abbott issued the deployment order following a meeting with Texas DPS Director Colonel Steve McCraw. The two discussed strategies to increase safety and security along the border.

The announcement follows a massive increase in illegal border crossings since President Joe Biden took office in January.

Earlier this week, Democrat Congressman Henry Cuellar (D-TX) announced that Border Patrol agents apprehended approximately 10,000 migrants in the Rio Grande Valley Sector during a seven-day period ending on Wednesday, Breitbart Texas reported.

“We are weeks, maybe even days, away from a crisis on the southern border. Inaction is simply not an option,” Congressman Cuellar said in a written statement. “Our country is currently unprepared to handle a surge in migrants in the middle of the pandemic.”

In Brownsville, Texas, city officials said that six percent of the migrants being released at the bus station to obtain transportation into the U.S. interior are testing positive for COVID-19, Breitbart Texas reported. The Brownsville official said they do not have the authority to prevent those who test positive from boarding buses to travel into the U.S. interior. A worker at the bus station told Fox News they cannot ask passengers for proof of coronavirus test results before transit. Cuellar added, “I urge the Biden Administration to listen and work with the communities on the southern border who are dealing with the surge of migrants.”

Don’t hold your breathe while you wait.

Biden and his Handlers are the ones allowing the chaos at our Southern Birders.

The Far Left Democrats want an influx of undereducated illegal immigrants to come into our Sovereign Nation.

They, like the product of Liberal-staffed colleges before them, are easier to mold and deceive.

It is the same logic which caused Vladimir Lenin to approach the barbaric Bolsheviks and Mensheviks to help him overthrow the Czar of Russia and usher in the “glorious period of enlightenment and social justice” known as the Russian Revolution.

Of course, you know that while I was writing the statement above, I had my tongue firmly planted in my cheek.

Lenin suckered the masses into believing that the political theory which he was championing would bring about a land of milk and honey, where every man would have what he needed to be happy, healthy, and prosperous.

Instead, what Marxism, which has failed in every country in which it has been tried, brought to the poor peasants of Russia was more poverty and even less individual freedom than what they had experienced under the Czar’s rule.

The Democrats are so desperate to change our country’s government from a Constitutional Republic to the “glory” of Democratic Socialism that they are willing to bring thousands of Covid-19-positive illegals across our Southern Border.

Their plan kills two birds with one stone:

It gives them more “foot soldiers” and it will re-infect America with the Chinese Coronavirus, causing more lockdowns and the opportunity for Democrats to grab more power and gain more control of American Citizens.

Thank God that Texas has a strong governor, like Governor Abbott, to stand up against an out-of-control Presidential Administration.

More governors need to do the same.

Biden’s Press Secretary Says We Don’t Take Trump’s Advice on Immigration…Are They Purposefully Leading America Into a Crisis?

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment
See the source image

Newsmax.com reports that

White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki dismissed criticism by former President Donald Trump regarding a surge in unaccompanied minors crossing the southern border, saying, ”We don’t take our advice or counsel from former President Trump on immigration policy.”

Psaki’s comment came after Trump blasted the Biden administration earlier in the day, issuing a statement through his Save America political action committee that blamed the administration for a ”spiraling tsunami at the border.”

Psaki referred to the Trump administration’s policy as ”ineffective” and ”immoral.”

”Obviously we’re going to have more kids across the — in the country — since we have been letting unaccompanied minors stay,” she said. ”And the last administration immorally kicked them out.”

But critics have said the Biden administration’s policies have created a flood at the border, encouraging and inviting illegal border crossings.

”At the end of the day, the Biden administration, through its policies, is facilitating and encouraging these individuals to come forward across that border illegally,” former Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf told Newsmax TV on Feb. 26.

Psaki’s statements come a day after she steadfastly refused to credit the Trump administration for expediting the development of a vaccine for the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19, instead suggesting that the death toll was the fault of the previous administration.

President Joe Biden and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas have both rejected the situation at the border situation as a ”crisis.”

However, Texas Democrat Rep. Henry Cuellar released a statement Thursday noting that approximately 10,000 illegal immigrants have been apprehended in the past week in the Del Rio border sector and that the country is ”weeks, maybe even days, away from a crisis.’‘

Y’know, boys and girls, I have been saying for a long time now, that if the Democrats had their way regarding illegal immigration America would turn into a Third World “Democratic Socialist” Paradise, like Venezuela and Cuba.

Even the Dems, like Rep. Cuellar, are concerned that Biden and his Handers do not have a clue as to what they are doing in regards to the way that they have thrown open our Southern Border to bring in unaccompanied minors, housing them in the cages which Former President Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm) built.

It is known that a percentage of these illegal minors are COVID-19 positive.

If they are being held with the other illegals, then Biden and his Administration are “recharging” the pandemic.

And, the rumor is that they are going to take these minors to military bases, like Obama did, and then these “children” will be released to “relatives”, making it very possible that America could be headed for another lockdown…which would fit in perfectly in the plans of the Far Left Democrats.

Just as they have fenced in OUR nation’s capitol in order to intimidate and control us, they would have no hesitation to attempt to force another nationwide “Pandemic Lockdown” on American citizens, again.

In countries like Greece, which have allowed the “Democratic Socialists” to take control of their government, the same “game plan” was followed.

Open up the borders, the overwhelm “the system” while raise taxes until businesses go under, placing 40% of the country’s population “working for” the government or on government assistance”.

Think about this:

Just as the Millionaire Democrats on Capital Hill, like Pelosi, live in gated communities to separate themselves from the violence and poverty which they are responsible for, so are they now working in a “gated community” designed to keep  “Deplorables” (i.e. average American citizens) out.

Welcome to the USSA, Comrades.

Biden Administration Asks SCOTUS to Dismiss Trump Plan to Block Federal Grants to Sanctuary Cities

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

See the source image

You may have seen this already, however, it explains illegal immigration as succinctly as anything I’ve come across:

Let’s pretend I broke into your house.  When you discover me there, you insist I leave.  But I say, “I’ve made all the beds, washed the dishes, did the laundry, and cleaned the floors; I’ve done all the work you don’t like to do. I’m hardworking and honest (except for breaking into your house). Not only must you let me stay, you must also add me to your insurance plan, educate my kids, and provide these benefits to my husband, too (he will do your yard work, he’s honest and hardworking too–except for that breaking in part). If you try to force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house and proclaim my right to be there! It’s only fair, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I’m trying to better myself. I’m hardworking and honest…except for, well, you know. I will live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of selfishness and prejudice.

Oh yeah, I want you to learn my language so you can communicate with me.

Good plan.. don’t you think?

Actually, NO.

However, Joe Biden’s Handlers do.

Newsmax.com reports that

President Joe Biden’s administration asked the U.S. Supreme Court to dismiss three pending appeals stemming from his predecessor’s efforts to block federal grants to cities and states that don’t cooperate with federal immigration enforcement.

In joint filings with the court on Thursday, Acting Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar indicated that the new administration had resolved federal litigation with California, New York State, New York City and other so-called sanctuary jurisdictions.

The cities and states sued after former President Donald Trump’s administration threatened to withhold the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grants, which are often used to buy equipment or pay for police overtime. Byrne, a New York City police officer, was murdered in the line of duty in 1988.

Lower courts were divided on the legality of the Trump policy, and both sides were appealing. The Trump administration had asked the high court to hear a case from California, while New York City and a group of states led by New York were seeking review of a ruling they lost.

The Supreme Court had been deferring action on the appeals while the new administration decided how to handle the cases. The cases are Wilkinson v. San Francisco, 20-666; New York v. Department of Justice, 20-795; and City of New York v. Department of Justice, 20-796.

The last bipartisan U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform wrangled with the hot topic of Illegal Immigration for six years. President Clinton appointed former congresswoman and Democratic icon Barbara Jordan as its chair. Jordan came from humble beginnings to become a lawyer and the first Southern black woman elected to the House of Representatives. A DEMOCRAT, she was a leader in the civil rights movement, a professor of ethics, a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and a world-class orator (two of her speeches are considered among the greatest of the 20th century). Her appointment gave the commission instant credibility. According to Jordan, she believed her responsibility as the head of the commission was to restore credibility to the U.S. immigration system. On the issue of illegal immigration, Jordan was very clear and succinct:

Unlawful immigration is unacceptable. Those who should not be here will be required to leave.

I wonder what Rep. Jordan would think of her beloved Democratic Party, now that they have embraced and are not only welcoming the same illegality, which she was so clear about, but protecting illegal aliens from deportation?

And, how would she feel about the fact that innocent Americans are being murdered by these uninvited guests?

I believe that she would stand with our Former President and walk straight into the Oval Office and give the current resident a piece of her mind.

So, why are these Democratic Mayors refusing to abide by our nation’s laws by HARBORING FUGITIVES?

Liberals, on both sides of the Political Aisle, have continuously masked their true intentions for the political usefulness, in their incessant push to grant blanket amnesty to Illegal Aliens, by swathing it in the noble rhetoric of “Civil Rights” and “Social Justice”.

What makes the current influx of illegal immigrants exempt from the rules and regulations that every other generation of immigrants to this country had to abide by in order to become legal citizens of the greatest nation in the world? By being here illegally, they are not entitled to the same rights as natural-born or naturalized American citizens.

And, yet, even as I write this, they are in our hospitals, taking advantage of our charity and the finest health care system in the world, and driving our streets, with either forged drivers licenses or those obtained from states who have acquiesced and given them to these “undocumented workers”.

This is in no way a human rights issue.

Freedom is God-given, and with freedom comes responsibility. With citizenship comes responsibility, like paying taxes and making your own way.

Attempting to assign “Constitutional Rights” to those who are here illegally is a usurpation of power Democratic local and national Politicians.

I understand that people want a better life for themselves and their children.  We are all immigrants in this land, except for American Indians, and they got here by crossing the Bering Straight.  But there is a huge difference between immigrating here legally and sneaking in illegally, between assimilating into an existing culture, and insisting on replacing a country’s existing culture with that of the country you left.

I’m all for assisting anyone in becoming a legal citizen of the United States, if that is their wish.  But, it must be done the right way, and they must accept responsibility for their illegal entry, show a willingness to learn our language, and embrace our American way of life, including respecting the American Flag.

Those who came here illegally and taken advantage of our benevolence need to be deported.

If they want to become Americans, they can get in line and do it legally.

Biden: Red States Lifting Mask Mandates are Engaging in “Neanderthal Thinking”, WH Later Cuts Dem Video Conference Feed When Biden Offers to Answer Questions…Hmmm

On By kingsjesterIn Politics3 Comments

Newsmax.com reports that

After Texas and Mississippi lifted their longstanding face mask mandates, President Joe Biden fired back at their leadership on Wednesday, calling it “Neanderthal thinking.”

“The last thing we need is Neanderthal thinking in the meantime: ‘Everything’s fine, take off your masks,'” Biden told reporters at the White House. “It still matters.”

“It’s critical, critical, critical that they follow the science,” he continued. “I know you all know that. I wish to heck some of our election officials knew it.”

Biden was asked at the end of his Oval Office appearance before reporters about Texas and Mississippi both lifting face mask mandates a day earlier and removing restrictions on indoor capacities at businesses.

“I think it’s a big mistake,” Biden said. “Look, I hope everyone’s realized by now, these masks make a difference. We are on the cusp of being able to change the nature of this disease because of the way we’re able to get vaccines in people’s arms.”

Biden announced there will be enough vaccines in America by the end of May to inoculate anyone who wants to be vaccinated. The timetable was moved up from the end of summer, to July, and now to the end of spring, Biden said. There are now three vaccines approved for emergency use in America, produced by Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson.

“This entire country has paid the price for political leaders who ignored the science when it comes to the pandemic,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters at the daily press briefing.

“There’s still more work to be done. We need to remain vigilant.”

So, what sort of “POTUS” would call American Voters “Neanderthals”?

Well…allow me to answer my own question by sharing this report from FoxNews.com…

The White House raised eyebrows on Wednesday when it suddenly cut the feed of a virtual event after President Biden said he was “happy to take questions” from Democratic lawmakers.

Accompanied by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. and the House Democratic Caucus, Biden addressed lawmakers on the topics of COVID relief and the ongoing vaccine rollout. He closed his remarks by calling on Democrats to help “restore faith” in government.

He then appeared ready to take questions.

“I’d be happy to take questions if that’s what I’m supposed to do, Nance,” Biden told the speaker. “Whatever you want me to do.”

The feed ended seconds later, after a brief pause from the president.

It is obvious to every civilized country around the world that the President of the United States of America is a feeble old man battling dementia…and losing.

He is obviously getting worse with each passing day.

To call those Americans who live in Red States, like Texas and Mississippi, like myself, “Neanderthals” because we want the American Freedom with our forefathers fought and died for, reinstated as normal day-to-day life, is insulting, condescending, and horribly insensitive.

Biden did not do much campaigning for President in Red States and now we know why.

“Lunch Bucket Joe” is nothing but a snobby, controlling Liberal Democrat from Delaware.

This clown never was Presidential material.

And, now that his mental and physical health are obviously deteriorating, he is a dangerous liability to not only the United States of America but to rest of the Free World, as well.

No wonder those Democrats want to take away his sole authority over the “Nuclear Football”.

And, speaking of Democrats, I wonder what they thought when yesterday’s video conference ended so abruptly?

Do you think that the 25-watt light bulbs in their heads all went off in unison?

Did they call one another to discuss Biden’s mental capacity?

Or, did they already know and  had pledged to not openly discuss it?

Pretty soon, they will have no choice as he is growing more feeble by the day.

Oh…by the way, Joe…

We “Neanderthals” down here in the Red States never cared what you thought of us, anyway.

We all proudly voted for President Donald J. Trump.

Trump Delivers Big at CPAC 2021: “We Have the Republican Party”

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

https://twitter.com/toddstarnes/status/1366144746704543750?s=20

Newsmax.com reports that

Putting to rest talk of a third party to break off from the GOP, former President Donald Trump said there will be only the Republican Party united, all the way.

“I want you to know that I’m going to continue to fight right by your side,” Trump said Sunday as the headliner at the American Conservative Union Conference on Sunday in Orlando, Florida. “We will do what we’ve done right from the beginning, which is to win.

“We’re not starting new parties. You know, they kept saying, ‘he’s going to start a brand new party.’ We have the Republican party. It’s going to unite and be stronger than ever before. I am not starting a new party. That was fake news. Fake news.”

Trump vowed at CPAC the party will fight to defeat “radical Democrats” in future elections.

“Brave Republicans in this room will be at the heart of the effort to oppose the radical Democrats, the fake news media, and their toxic cancel culture: Something new to our ears – cancel culture,” Trump said early in his speech.

“No, that would be brilliant: Let’s start a new party; let’s divide our vote so that you could never win. No we’re not interested in that.”

The speech to CPAC was Trump’s first public appearance since he left office 39 days ago. Since then, he’s kept an uncharacteristically low profile, hampered in large part because he is banned from Twitter and Facebook in the wake of the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol that led to his impeachment and subsequent acquittal in the Senate.

In emailed statements and a handful of interviews to friendly outlets, he’s blasted Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, eulogized talk show host Rush Limbaugh and made unfounded allegations of election fraud — all while avoiding questions about his future in the party.

His remarks ratified the consensus of the conference that this is not a conservative movement wallowing in its loss to Democrat Joe Biden as much as it’s a government-in-waiting, counting down the three years and 11 months for Trump to “Make America Great Again” again.

In a straw poll, 97% of attendees approved of his leadership of the party, 70% want him to run again and 55% said he was their preferred candidate in 2024. (The other top contenders were Trump loyalists: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, followed by South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem and Donald Trump Jr.)

Trump’s rousing reception at the most important conservative gathering on the calendar highlights just how much Trump has transformed the movement in just five years.

In 2016, Trump abruptly canceled his appearance at the event amid plans for a walkout from conservatives who questioned his commitment to the cause and demands that he answer questions from a moderator like the other candidates.

On Sunday, he was the closer of a three-day festival of Trump-flavored conservatism that bore his undeniable imprint.

The conference included at least seven panels credulously discussing Trump’s claims of a stolen 2020 election despite dozens of court rulings finding otherwise.

Major figures from the Trump cabinet — at least, those still loyal to the former president — were given speaking slots: Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, Acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell and Budget Director Russ Vought.

Prominent conservatives who have left Trump’s orbit were nowhere to be found, including McConnell and his wife, former Trump Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and Wyoming Representative Liz Cheney. Even Trump’s old running mate, former Vice President Mike Pence, declined an invitation.

For those of you who missed it, you missed a stemwinder of a speech.

Trump looked well and rested and ready to faced the challenges which lay ahead.

Trump, as he warned during yesterday’s speech, will support Republican Candidates who will be running in the Midterm Elections in 2022 against those Vichy Republicans who recently voted to impeach him at the conclusion of Shampeachment 2.

So, to all of my fellow amateur political pundits:

Yes, boys and girls. Trump is going to be a Kingmaker.

And, then, Trump will, once again, run for the office of President of the United States of America in 2024.

And, as of today, there is no one on either side who will be able to beat him.

Why?

Just as Trump did, with his refusal early in his first Presidential Campaign to “act more presidential”, he continues to take his message directly to the American People.

Trump has always been a “people person”.

That is the reason that, when he was still a contributor to Fox News, he would speak to everyone in the building, from the maintenance crew, on up the ladder.

As Sam Walton, the Founder of Walmart, knew, you don’t inspire people by acting imperious and above it all.

“Mr. Sam”, until his health would no longer allow him to do so, would travel to Walmart Stores in his old pickup truck, with a tie and a baseball cap on, visiting the employees, in order to find out how his stores were doing.

He knew that the only way to be successful and to stay in touch with the public, was to speak to them honestly and directly, as one would speak to a friend.

Just as President Trump did when he went on a “Thank You” Tour and then his “MAGA Rallies”, Trump showed himself to be “A Man of the People”.

The Political Establishment, of both parties, lost that concept, a long time ago.

Bypassing the borders to communication, historically determined by both political parties and the Main Stream Media, is a concept which I first witnessed being used by a Presidential Candidate in the 1980 Presidential Election, the before-mentioned Ronald Wilson Reagan.

While I am not comparing the two, I am noting that this strategy has proved effective for both men.

As the polls show, Trump continues to strike a resonant chord in the hearts of Average Americans, living here in the part of America, which the snobbish Democrat Elites refer to as “Flyover Country”, but which we refer to as “America’s Heartland”, or, quite simply, “HOME”.

He does not talk down to us while disparaging our Sovereign Nation, as the Democrats did in their National Covention and, quite frankly, do every day.

Trump talks to us in a plain-spoken, clearly understood way, a style which is in stark contrast to an opposition party full of professional politicians, whose only interest is the regaining of power in Washington, D.C., at whatever the cost.

When he speaks, Donald J. Trump makes average Americans feel good about themselves and their role in determining the future of our country.

They hear words of hope and encouragement from a man who genuinely LOVES America and her people, instead of viewing us all as racist, misogynist, xenophobes…the 45th President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump.

And, that, fellow Americans, is why President Trump will be elected President once again in 2024.

My 4,000th Blog: Since Biden Won’t Do It, Here is KJ’s State of the Union

On By kingsjesterIn Christianity, Politics2 Comments
See the source image

As the title above says, this is the 4,000th blog that I’ve written on this website.

I’ve been involved in watching the news and observing politics ever since college, when I was named the News Director of my campus radio station, back in 1978. I was on the air when John Lennon was shot and went live with the story.

I cast my very 1st vote in 1980 for Ronald Wilson Reagan.

In 1988, I began listening to Rush Hudson Limbaugh on our local talk radio station in the Memphis area. I was fascinated by what I was hearing. Here was a guy from Cape Girardeau, Missouri who was saying everything that I believed in over my car radio.

In April of 2010, after spending some time in the comments section of hotair.com with a lot of average Americans just like me who became my social media friends and fans, I decided to start a daily blog in which I covered everything from a Christian American Conservative point of view.

Over the years, I’ve been able to satisfy my quest for knowledge and vent over the political affairs of the day in a manner which has actually been read by thousands of people.

According to WordPress, my blog has been read by people from all over the world. And that my friends, is a great honor.

All that being said, please allow me to speak to you about our country and the State of the Union.

The state of the Union is strong.

The Democrats in charge of our country are a bunch of fascists

The first thing they did after assuming power was to put a fence around the Capitol Building and the White House in order to keep us from holding them accountable for the passage of laws and executive orders which the overwhelming majority of average Americans would not and do not agree with.

Just like when Vladimir Lenin and the Bolsheviks took over Russia, the Democrats installed a vacillating, incompetent figurehead in Joe Biden to take a seat in the Oval Office, preceded by great men whom he cannot possibly measure up to in his diminished state.

I give Biden less than a year, as he is visibly getting worse and worse as he battles dementia.

His puppetmasters, whom I believe to be Barack Hussein Obama, Valerie Jarrett, and Susan rise, will not be able to maintain their illusion of Biden being a working president for long, even speaking in the air piece which he constantly wears

So, who does that leave us as our president?

Vice-President Kamala “Heels Up” Harris, whose only qualification for the office is the fact that she can kick her legs up higher…and wider… than any president before her.

Yeah… I said it.

Would you like to hear some good news?

The overwhelming majority of average Americans still believe in the traditional Faith and Values System of our fathers and forefathers. We still love God, our family, and our country.

The Democrats know this. That is another reason why they have built a fence around Washington. They are scared of us. And, rightfully so.

Today, at 2:30 p.m. Central, at the annual CPAC Convention, being held in sunny Florida, Former President Donald J. Trump is going to deliver a stemwinder of a speech in which he will lay the future of our nation out for us. He is going to continue to fight for us.

Trump is going to outline a strategy by which we will take back the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. Before he’s done speaking today, the bureaucrats in Washington, D.C., the Democrats on Capitol Hill, and their minions in the Main Stream Media are going to wet their pants and need to find safe spaces.

In conclusion, I believe that our forefathers provided an example which we should follow over the next 4 years. After enduring persecution for generations, they loaded their families into sailing ships and set out across the Atlantic for months at a time to a new land filled with unknown peril. They did this so they could escape tyrannical despots and worship God as they pleased. Then the landed, they forged a new country out of the wilderness. A land which was destined to be the greatest country on the face of the Earth.

Over the next 4 years, as average Americans, it will be our job to fight to preserve this country…to fulfil the vision of our forefathers through strength, courage, love, and a reverence for the Creator who gave us this Sacred Land and our Founding Documents to guide us.

It won’t be easy. Doing the right thing never is.

I can and will promise you one thing :

I will keep writing…

Graham Does Not Think That Biden is in Charge, 3 Dozen House Dems Want Biden to Give Up Sole Authority to Launch Nukes

In a pair of related stories.

Newsmax.com reports that

President Joe Biden was a moderate senator, but the administration implementing all these progressive policies in his first weeks in office shows it just is not him in charge, according to Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., on Newsmax TV.

“I like Joe Biden, but the agenda is AOC [Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.], [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi, [Senate Majority Leader Chuck] Schumer, Sen. Bernie Sanders,” Graham told “Greg Kelly Reports” of his former fellow senator Biden.

“So, no, I don’t think Joe Biden’s in charge.”

Newsmax.com also reports that

A group of about three dozen Democrats in the House have signed a letter calling for President Joe Biden to give up his sole authority to authorize the launch of nuclear weapons, which was obtained by Politico.

“Vesting one person with this authority entails real risks,” reads the letter, which was spearheaded by Rep. Jimmy Panetta, D-Calif., according to Politico. “Past presidents have threatened to attack other countries with nuclear weapons or exhibited behavior that caused other officials to express concern about the president’s judgment.”

The letter continues, “While any president would presumably consult with advisors before ordering a nuclear attack, there is no requirement to do so. The military is obligated to carry out the order if they assess it is legal under the laws of war. Under the current posture of U.S. nuclear forces, that attack would happen in minutes.”

The congressman said in a tweet on Wednesday: “ICYMI: I’m calling on @POTUS to install checks & balances in our nuclear command-and-control structure. Past presidents have threatened nuclear attacks on other countries or exhibited concerning behavior that cast doubt on their judgment.”

The Democrats suggest several alternatives to the president’s sole authority, including requiring other officials in the presidential line of succession, specifically the vice president and the House Speaker, neither of whom can be removed by the president if they disagree — to concur with a launch order.”

Here’s a “Pro Tip”:

The Democrats are worried about Joe Biden launching a Nuclear Attack BECAUSE HE IS BATTLING DEMENTIA…and losing.

Sen. Lindsey Graham was stating the obvious.

It was obvious during the Presidential Campaign that Joe’s lights were dimming and nobody was home, like when he faced the television screen behind him to deliver a speech, instead of the live crowd in front of him.

Or, the time that he was in a little store, and a young nurse had to guide him out of there by his arm to make sure that he made it into a waiting car.

And, how about the “Lids” which continue even today, barring access to Biden from the Main Stream Media and everybody else?

Then, there is the matter of the earpiece which Biden constantly wears. Who is barking orders at him? Susan Rice? Valerie Jarrett? Former President Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm)?

Those who are controlling Biden are fooling no one.

An Australian News Reporter recently aired a report about the President of the United States of America being a feeble old man with dementia.

Can you imagine how the Ayatollahs in Iran are rubbing their hands with glee over this situation?

They will have an atomic bomb in no time, now.

And, speaking of nukes, the House Democrats who want Biden to given them the authority to launch a nuke. By doing so, they have just allowed Americans to see them scared spitless over realizing that Biden is every bit as feeble and demented as Former President Trump and any one with any common sense has claimed him to be.

So, what are the Democrats going to do?

I believe that within a year we will be witnessing the Democrats and their minions in the Main Stream Media singing the praise of President “Heels Up” Harris.

That might be scarier than Sleepy Joe having the authority to nuke someone.

Psaki: Biden Supports Cuban Not Playing the National Anthem Before Games Because “of the Times We as a Country Haven’t Lived Up to Our Highest Ideals”

It is the night of September 13, 1814.  The British fleet are bombarding Fort McHenry in the harbor at Baltimore, Maryland. Francis Scott Key, a 34-year old lawyer-poet, is watching the attack from the deck of a British prisoner-exchange ship. Key had gone seeking the release of a friend. They were told that they had to remain aboard the vessel until the end of the attack. When the battle was over, the following morning, Key had his telescope on the fort and saw the American flag was still waving. The sight of the tattered Stars and Stripes was so moving that he pulled a letter from his pocket and began to write the poem. This poem eventually became the national anthem of the United States – “The Star Spangled Banner”.

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro’ the perilous fight’
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming.
And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

It does, sir. Regardless of  the actions of an ungrateful millionaires and the “America Last” Domestic Policy of a clueless President and his Administration.

TheFederalist.com reports that

White House press secretary Jen Psaki expressed support for Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban’s decision to remove the national anthem from the team’s home games because they “feel [the anthem] doesn’t represent them.”

During the Wednesday press briefing, Fox News’s Peter Doocy asked Psaki about the Biden administration’s stance on Cuban’s decision. While the press secretary acknowledged that President Joe Biden is “proud to be an American and has great respect for the anthem,” she also said he would support the Mavericks for calling out the frequent times when “we as a country haven’t lived up to our highest ideals.”

“He’d also say that, of course, that part of pride in our country means recognizing moments where we as a country haven’t lived up to our highest ideals, which is often, and at times what people are speaking to when they take action at sporting events,” Psaki said. “And it means respecting the right of people, granted to them in the Constitution to peacefully protest. That’s why he ran for president in the first place, and that’s what he’s focused on doing every day.”

Cuban’s decision to rescind the anthem was publicized earlier this week after some noticed the Mavericks, which are currently 11-14, refused to play the “Star-Spangled Banner” at any of their 13 pre-season or 12 regular-season games at the American Airlines Center. Mavericks employees who noticed the stealthy removal said they received no notice or explanation for Cuban’s decision to nix the patriotic song.

Later reports suggest the decision follows a trend by the NBA and other teams in the league to send a social justice message by ignoring or purposefully refusing to “stand and line up in a dignified posture along the foul lines during the playing of the American and/or Canadian national anthems,” as required in NBA policy. This rule was not enforced during the league’s Black Lives Matter campaigning last summer when players knelt during the anthem or even boycotted games after the shooting of Jacob Blake.

“Source close to Mark Cuban says decision to not play Anthem before Mavs games isn’t because they don’t love U.S., but because many feel anthem doesn’t represent them, and they want to continue discussion of how to represent people from all communities when honoring U.S. at game,” one sports writer reported.

Shortly after this story came out, the NBA said that all teams will play the National Anthem before games.

While this story was actually posted a couple of days ago, the sheer ingratitude and tone-deafness of the Biden Administration continues to blow my mind.

No country is perfect because countries are governed by human beings, which are fallen creatures.

However, the United States of America remains the country that everyone wants to come to, legally or otherwise.

Why? 

Because for almost 250 years, this “Shining City Upon a Hill” has had a reputation as a land in which everyone could make their dreams a reality…if they were willing to work to achieve it.

Our economic system of capitalism has been the cause of millions of Americans achieving their dreams and providing for their families.

America is a country chiseled out of the wilderness by rugged individualists who wanted not only the freedom to prosper…but the freedom to worship as they pleased also.

America is a “Sweet Land of Liberty”.

And, Liberty is Freedom with responsibility.

The responsibility to provide for yourself and your family…and to protect our precious liberty if our country goes to war.

The Far Left Democrats could care less about the sacrifices made and the lives lost to secure the Sovereign Nation which is today’s America.

Why?

Because they are a bunch of “useful idiots” who want desperately to “share the wealth” and insult patriotism by calling it “nationalism” in order to “radically change” our proven economic system of capitalism into “Democratic Socialism”, a form of Marxism, a political theory which has never worked in any country in which it has been tried. 

For several generations, Democrats have told the impoverished that “Uncle Sugar” will take care of their every need as long as they keep voting them into public office.

However, these same impoverished Americans found out during the Presidency of Donald J. Trump the rewards of a good job and hard work.

Boys and girls, the reason that the Biden Administration and the rest of the Far Left Democrats do not want Americans to respect the National Anthem is the fact that it reminds Americans of every good and just quality that this nation was founded upon and which kept us strong for almost 250 years.

It fills us with pride and gratitude that we live in the Greatest Country on the Face of the Earth.

Everything that the Far Left Democrats despise.

The Leader of the Russian Revolution, Vladimir Lenin, who brought Marxism to Russia, wrote

“Give me just one generation of youth, and I’ll transform the whole world.”

However, Lady Margaret Thatcher, a close friend of President Ronald Reagan, laid that falsehood to rest with the following quote…

“The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.”

And, you know what?

I would much rather live in “the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave” than under a failed political system where you can not even buy a decent roll of toilet paper.
