Episode 344 – Sheer Incompetence

Old Joe is incompetent.

I gotta say, Old Joe has managed to f-up everything this week and it’s only Tuesday!

So Much for Peace

Joe Biden just needed to do nothing with the Middle East. Stay out of it and let the Trump policies run their course and, hopefully, more peace deals would be struck. Nope, couldn’t do that. So far:

  • He is negotiating to get back into the Iran Nuclear Deal.
  • According to Iran, Biden has given money that was being held from Iran. That has not been confirmed.
  • He has released hundreds of millions of dollars for aid to the Palestinians. The same group that is run by Hamas, another terrorist organization.

So you know things are not going to go well over there. Biden hates the Jews and Israel just like Obama did. Heck, all the Left hates them.

Well, the violence has finally escalated:

  • On Monday, during a festival celebrating Jerusalem Day held at the Temple Mount, which is the holiest site for the Jews, the Palestinians started launching fireworks that lit a tree on fire. The site had to be evacuated.
  • Throughout the day into today, Hamas has launched more than 400 missiles into Israel.
  • The Iron Dome, which is Israel’s air defense system, has taken out over 90% of the missiles sent. Reports have it over 30 have been injured.
  • Israel Defense Forces (IDF) struck back.
    • The first two stages of attacks, IDF fighter jets and attack helicopters ran attacks that destroyed 130 Hamas targets including a school.
    • In the third stage of attacks, the IDF attacked weapons sites and military facilities. The focused on the Islamic Jihad organization and the Hamas leadership.
    • An intelligence building and two underground tunnels and were destroyed.
    • The Israeli military is now bringing heavy weapons and troops on the border and look like they are about to begin a ground incursion. This is to be more exact with their targets.

Why Did This Start?

There are two reasons that are being put out there: one by the Left the other, well, because this always happens and is probably the real reason.

This is BS. There were only four homes that needed to be cleared out. The residents admitted they did not own the properties and had not paid rent for over a decade. They were not kicked out of the area, they just couldn’t live for free in the property they were living in. This is nothing more than a civil eviction case. But this is what the Left is using as an excuse for showing that Israel is bad and is displacing the Palestinians. It also justifies the attacks by Hamas.

The most likely reason for the attacks by the Palestinians is a deflection to its own government’s corruption. Today or yesterday was suppose to be the Palestinian Authority’s first election since 2006. The leader of the ruling party, PA President Mahmoud Abbas, knew he was probably going to lose so he cancelled the election last week. Abbas said he was cancelling the election because Israel would be preventing Palestinians from voting, which is crap.

By the way, when the Palestinian Authority is facing some sort of internal conflict, they usually launch missiles at Israel.

American Response

Of course, Israel can expect no help from the Biden administration. The only thing they said is the violence needs to be de-escalated. Great call. Five hundred missiles have been launched into Israel and Israel needs to de-escalate. What a weak response.

The White House made a statement later:

“We are continuing to closely monitor the violence in Israel. We have serious concerns about the situation, including violent confrontations that we’ve seen over the last few days. As you noted, an escalation earlier today.

“In a call over the weekend with his Israeli counterpart, our national security advisor Jake Sullivan reiterated concerns about the potential evictions of Palestinian families from their homes. And they agreed that the launching of rocket attacks and incendiary balloons from Gaza towards Israel is unacceptable and must be condemned. So this is something that our national security team is closely monitoring, obviously across government. Certainly, the president is kept abreast and is watching closely as well.”

Israel is pushing President Joe Biden to refrain from involving the United States in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, saying Biden’s meddling would likely make the situation worse. They know that Biden, who has threatened Israel in the past as a Senator, will side with the Palestinian Authority and try to force Israel not to respond. Israel can’t afford to show weakness.

The Squad

Of course, the two anti-Semites of the squad had to chime in and spread the Palestinian Authority’s propaganda.

Ilhan Omar tweeted:

She’s doesn’t mention that it was the Palestinians were the one who started a riot at the Temple Mount and launched missiles into Israel. Does she want to know how to protect the Palestinians? Don’t launch missiles into Israel.

She also tweeted:

Another stupid tweet. Of course the Palestinians have a right to safety and security. And they have it. Just stop launching missiles into Israel. Notice there is no acknowledgement that the Palestinian Authority is doing anything wrong at all. It’s all Israel.

Rashida Tlaib, another Jew-hater, tweeted:

It is so important that the Palestinians pray during the week of Ramadan that they decide to attack Israel with missiles. I’m pretty sure a lot of them are not praying. And I don’t give a damn about the holiday if they are being the aggressors.

I also want to point out that Israel has shown a lot of restraint. If Mexico started lobbing missiles over the border into Texas, you better believe the United States were turn Mexico into New Texas within a week. I’m surprised Israel has not walked into the Palestinian territory and killed off every Hamas and Fatah terrorist in the region. Instead, they continually try to make peace and make concessions.

It’s going to get old after a while and Israel is just going to smack the crap out of them eventually.

When Are We Going to Have Odd and Even Days?

I saw a tweet today:

Oil pipelines closed: Biden – 2, Trump – 0

The east coast is now suffering through a gas shortage.

On social media, multiple videos went viral of people showing that their gas stations were out of fuel in states including Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Virginia, Arkansas, Tennessee, and others. Panic buying might be playing a role in gas stations running out of fuel, although it is hard to tell based on initial reports.

  • A bunch of gas stations are closed because they have run out of gas.
  • Those stations that are opened have lines wrapped around the block.
  • A lot of this has to do with panic buying like with the toilet paper last year.
  • We are not out of fuel.

The Biden administration has responded like they typically do. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said:

“The President continues to be regularly briefed on the Colonial Pipeline incident. The Administration is continually assessing the impact of this ongoing incident on fuel supply for the East Coast. We are monitoring supply shortages in parts of the Southeast and are evaluating every action the Administration can take to mitigate the impact as much as possible.

“The President has directed agencies across the Federal Government to bring their resources to bear to help alleviate shortages where they may occur.”

Yeah, no. He doesn’t care.

When asked about what the administration was doing about solving the ransomware problem, this is how his energy secretary answered:

Two things here:

  • First off, if you are a reporter and are going to ask a question on national television, have your questioned prepared and don’t stumble through it.
  • What weak sauce. This is really leadership?
  • This is part of our energy infrastructure. You know, the same infrastructure he wants to dump $2 trillion. We can’t trust him to take responsibility for something like this but we should trust him on how to spend $2 trillion?

So Out of Touch

So, businesses are telling Old Joe why no one is working. Economists are telling Old Joe why no one is working. CNN is telling Old Joe why no one is working. Fox News id telling Old joe why no one is working. There are people who refuse to work telling Old Joe why they won’t work. And everyone is telling Old Joe that there is going to be inflation.

But Old Joe… Listen:

How out-of-touch is this guy?

This comes after he said, “The economy is on the right track” last week after that weak-ass jobs report.

Remember, no one is working now. They expected one million new jobs last month and were 75% short. Trump added 230,000 jobs in January of 2020 at the start of a pandemic and with an unemployment rate of 3.5%.

Oh. Old Joe.

Conclusion

Let’s see:

  • Old Joe was given a vaccine and a vaccine plan. And he f-ed it up.
  • Old Joe was given an economy that was destined to explode. And he f-ed it up.
  • Old Joe was given a record setting stock market. And he f-ed it up.
  • Old Joe was given an energy surplus, making us an exporter of oil instead of an importer. And he f-ed it up.
  • Old Joe was given a secured border. And he f-ed it up.
  • Old Joe was given a neutered Iran. And he f-ed it up.
  • Old Joe was given a compliant North Korea. And he f-ed it up.
  • Old Joe was given a compliant China. And he f-ed it up.
  • Old Joe was given Middle East peace. And he f-ed it up.

I’m sure I forgot some things but you get the picture.

But Old Joe did give us some things:

  • A military that is woke.
  • A CIA that is woke.
  • Men competing against women.
  • A hatred of religion.
  • Race divisiveness.
  • Rioting.
  • Critical race theory in schools.
  • Wearing masks all the time.
  • Huge debt.
  • Inflation.
  • Class warfare.
  • Censorship and cancel culture.
  • Tax hikes.

Yeah. Things are looking good under Old Joe’s watch.

You miss Trump yet?
