Episode 930 – It Only Took One Day to Tick People Off?

While we worry about the Palestinians in the United States, Israelis are being killed by them.

The Olympics have started and so do the calls for boycotts. I haven’t watched the Olympics in 24 years so I’m pretty sure I will stick to that boycott.

And I have a little reminder of how low-IQ Kamala Harris is. But would she be the lowest IQ President? Let’s talk about it.

This Is to be Expected

According to CNN:

At least 12 people, including children, were killed when a rocket hit a village in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights Saturday, Israeli officials said, in an attack that has raised fears of a major escalation in the long-running conflict.

Israel said it had identified “approximately 30 projectiles” crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory in a barrage it blamed on the Iran-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah and described as the deadliest against it since October 7. Hezbollah has admitted targeting other parts of the Golan Heights but “firmly denies” it was behind the deadly strike.

Overnight following the attack, Israeli warplanes conducted airstrikes against Hezbollah targets “deep inside Lebanese territory and in southern Lebanon,” according to a statement from the military on Sunday morning. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) hit a series of Hezbollah targets including weapons caches and “terrorist infrastructure,” the statement said.

The Golan Heights attack risks significantly escalating the situation at the countries’ border, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office on Saturday vowing Hezbollah will “pay a heavy price.”

Israel and Hezbollah have been trading fire across the demarcation line for almost 10 months with increasing ferocity. Even before Saturday’s attack regional leaders had warned the conflict is reaching a boiling point.

In addition to the 12 deaths, at least 29 people were injured in the attack in Majdal Shams, a village that is home to a large Druze community.

Some 20,000 Druze Arabs live in the Golan Heights, an area Israel seized from Syria in 1967 during the Six-Day War and annexed in 1981. Considered occupied territory under international law and UN Security Council resolutions, the area is also home to about 50,000 Israeli Jewish settlers. Most Druze there identify as Syrian and have rejected offers of Israeli citizenship.

Among the sites hit in the attack was a soccer field where children and teenagers had been playing, IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari said. He described the barrage as “the deadliest attack on Israeli civilians since October 7.”

The Olympics

Some thoughts about the Olympics:

  • I do not like the Olympics. I stopped watching them after the 2000 games.
    • I hate that professionals not participate. There is no drama among regular people like Eddie the Eagle, the U.S. hockey team of 1980, Joan Benoit, or Mary Lou Retton.
    • Today’s athletes are high paid divas.
    • The Olympics have been politicized.
    • The Olympics have been commercialized.
    • Most of the athletes of the United States are not worthy of American support. I don’t care for these people. Some hate America yet are representing it.
    • There’s no back story to any of the athletes. That’s because they all have been doing nothing but their sport. None of them had any adversity. They’re not interesting (Eddie the Eagle or the Jamaican bobsled team). No movies will be made about any of these athletes.
  • They should have kept the Olympics every four years.
  • The sports aren’t just shown. There’s always some sort of narrative and bunches of cut scenes to keep it “entertaining”.
  • There is no more tradition. The history has been forgotted.
  • Even the sporting events are stupid. Ballroom dancing? Get the fuck out of here.

The Opening Ceremony

Some things about the opening ceremonies:

  • It was all that was wrong with the Olympics over the last twenty years.
  • It was long.
  • It was overproduced.
  • It was commercial.
  • It was political.
  • It broke from all traditions.
  • It was also slightly creepy and dark.

A video on the more controversial parts of the opening ceremonies can be found on Rumble.

Terrorism

According to the Daily Wire:

Travel in France was disrupted hours before the Paris Games opening ceremony on Friday when arsonists set fire to three high-speed rail lines.

Numerous trains were canceled on Friday morning, and the railway company S.N.C.F. urged travelers to delay their plans, The New York Times reported. The fires started in towns nearly 100 miles outside of Paris and were set in pipes that hold cables used for signaling, according to S.N.C.F. Chief Executive Jean-Pierre Farandou. No one has claimed responsibility.

The arson attacks happened as French authorities have been ramping up security around Paris in anticipation of the Olympic Games, with around 55,000 police and soldiers monitoring the capital city, Reuters reported. Authorities expect to see more than 300,000 spectators gather near the River Seine for the opening ceremony.

But that’s not all. Another instance of a possible attack happened the night of the opening ceremonies. God might have been responsible for this one after the blasphemy of the ceremonies. According to Outkick:

Day un of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris is in the books, and while the first day of competition was great, heavy storms battered the City of Lights, and it got so bad that overnight, the power appears to have gone out in large portions of the city.

Around midnight, reports started circulating that the City of Lights had gone dark. While the reports and the cause of any blackouts have not yet been confirmed, some videos are floating around social media of what sure looks like a city in the midst of a major power outage.

Of course, people immediately made a connection to the impeccably timed apparent power outage and the opening ceremony which happened about 36 hours earlier and featured what sure looked to most people like a clear-cut mockery of the Last Supper.

I mean… the timing is rather ironic.

But, whatever the cause is, hopefully, any issues are rectified as quickly as possible so the Games can continue without any further issues… because there have already been enough of those.

You know, I wouldn’t be so sure of any of that. We already have a major mess and it is the first day.

The Games

According to Fox News:

Two boxers who were previously disqualified for failing to meet eligibility requirements to compete in women’s matches last year will compete in the Paris Olympics.

Algeria’s Imane Khelif and Taiwan’s Lin Yu-Ting will compete for a medal in the women’s 66-kilogram and women’s 57-kilogram matches. However, both competitors faced controversy in 2023.

Khelif and Lin were disqualified during the women’s world championships in New Delhi in March 2023. The International Boxing Association said both fighters failed to meet eligibility criteria.

Khelif was disqualified after a test found a high level of testosterone, Reuters reported, citing Algerian media. The boxer told Algerian TV that the decision was a part of a “big conspiracy.”

According to AFP, Khelif was told she had “characteristics that mean I can’t box with women.”

The Algerian Olympic Committee said at the time Khelif was disqualified for medical reasons.

Lin’s bronze medal was stripped after failing to meet IBA eligibility criteria, which caused an uproar in her camp.

IBA president Umar Kremlin explained the decision at the time, according to Russia’s Tass News Agency.

“Based on DNA tests, we identified a number of athletes who tried to trick their colleagues into posing as women. According to the results of the tests, it was proved that they have XY chromosomes. Such athletes were excluded from competition,” Kremlin said.

Reduxx first noted the matchups.

The International Olympic Committee cut ties with the International Boxing Association in 2023 over concerns about its reliance on Russia’s Gazprom.

Episode 929 – Missing the Point

Kamala has a lot of flaws, but it’s too early to point them all out for Republicans. That gives the media a head start negate all those negatives.

Disney continues on their quest for bankruptcy.

And sharks seem to be more aggressive lately. Could them being wired on smack have something to do with it?

This Is a Reason

This is an article by Jessica Gross of the New York Times:

On Sunday, almost immediately after prominent Democrats started endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for president, attacks from the political right started pouring in. Will Chamberlain, a conservative lawyer who worked on Ron DeSantis’s presidential campaign, posted on X that Harris “shouldn’t be President” because she doesn’t have biological children; “becoming a step-parent to older teenagers doesn’t count,” he wroteadding that “The concerns of parents and families will always be abstract to her” because she doesn’t have “skin in the game, a stake in the future, and the lived experience of raising children.”

First, let’s note the obvious: If elected, Harris wouldn’t be the first American president with no biological children. There were five others: George Washington, James Madison, Andrew Jackson, James Polk and James Buchanan. (Warren Harding had a child out of wedlock and publicly denied paternity; that he was the father was confirmed by DNA testing almost a century later.)

But more to the point, if you think that the concerns of parents and families will always be “abstract” to someone who doesn’t have children, you’re telling on yourself. It’s not simply that, by all accounts, Harris has a close, loving relationship with her stepkids. It’s that it’s possible for people who have basic empathy to understand the needs, aspirations and concerns of fellow citizens who aren’t exactly like them — and to commit to their well-being.

It actually should be a requirement for presidential candidates to have compassion for people they’ll never meet. And it strikes me as anti-American to argue that a politician is any less invested in families or our country’s future because of his or her own parental status. It should go without saying, but: Having children doesn’t necessarily make you a better person.

This argument is also appallingly dismissive to so many adults who dote on the children in their lives and devote time, money and care to helping them grow, regardless of whether they are related by blood. It’s even more hurtful to people who really want to have children but are unable to.

This is, also, not a new tactic for the right. As a way of clinging to the tag line that the G.O.P. is the pro-family party — despite working, during the Biden years, to defeat federal legislation that included paid family leave and affordable high-quality child care — some Republicans are content to paint the Democratic Party as the party of “childless cat ladies.”

When JD Vance, the Republican vice-presidential nominee, was running for Senate in 2021, he told Fox News’s Tucker Carlson:

We’re effectively run, in this country, via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarchs, by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made, and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too. And it’s just a basic fact, if you look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, A.O.C. — the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children. And how does it make any sense that we’ve turned our country over to people who don’t really have a direct stake in it?

Vance has taken his feud with the childless even further than that, floating the idea in 2021 — apparently earnestly — of giving children votes that would be controlled by their parents, something that would have the effect of giving parents a greater say in our democracy than people without kids. (Vance has also spoken out against divorce and people who “shift spouses like they change their underwear,” but that criticism seems not to apply to his thrice-married running mate.)

Buttigieg has become a father since Vance and his fellow conservatives began this line of attack. But these critiques are part of the right-wing obsession with the traditional nuclear family. As the former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy put it: “The nuclear family is the greatest form of governance known to mankind.”

Instead of using Harris’s biography as a way to dismiss her family-friendly bona fides, we should be looking at her record. By that measure, Harris could be one of the most pro-family candidates we’ve had in recent memory. She was the public face of Democrats’ efforts in 2022 to promote the expanded child tax credits that families received as part of the American Rescue Plan, and in his endorsement of Harris, Senator Michael Bennet of Colorado praised her commitment to this policy and her “dedication to our country’s security and our children’s prosperity.”

By contrast, when CNN’s Jake Tapper asked a question about child care in the presidential debate last month, Donald Trump responded with a word salad about firing a bunch of people, draining the swamp and how President Biden is terrible.

Elder care often gets left out of discussions about caregiving in this country, though many people without children are spending a great deal of resources caring for older family members. This will only become a more important issue in the next decade, as by 2030, an estimated 73 million Americans will be seniors. In April, Vice President Harris announced two rules that help support older Americans and their caregivers, including a minimum staffing rule at nursing homes that receive federal funding and a wage requirement for home care workers.

When Vice President Harris spoke at a child-care center in 2021, she looked out at the crowd and referred to the kids in attendance as “our babies.” They’re our babies, she said, because “I was raised to understand that the children of the community are the children of the community.”

I want a future for my own children in which everybody looks out for the babies of the whole community and isn’t distrusting of people who live their lives differently, whether by circumstance or by choice.

Walt Disney is Turning in His Grave

Walt Disney continues their descent into bankruptcy. They are doing this buy continually alienating their fanbase to promote their DEI crap. Here are two more stories.

According to the Post Millennial:

Marvel Studios has junked the origins of a Jewish superhero which many claim is in response to threats of boycotts from anti-Israel activists. The character, portrayed by Shira Haas of “Unorthodox,” first appeared in an issue of The Incredible Hulk in 1980.

Last week, the Disney-owned studio dropped the trailer “Captain America: Brave New World.” One of the characters featured is Ruth Bat-Seraph, also known as Sabra, a term used for a person born in Israel. The character is a Mossad agent with super strength, super speed, and healing abilities.

The Times of Israel received a statement from Marvel Studios that the Disney-owned filmmaker would be “taking a different approach to the character Sabra” for the movie.

Haas is seen in the trailer. Calls came to boycott the film in 2022, when the movie, the character’s inclusion, and the casting of a Jewish actress were announced. Thoce calls from anti-Israel activists have continued after Palestinian terrorists attacked Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, and through Israel’s war against Hamas.

In the movie’s announcement, which was released with the trailer, there is no mention of Sabra, only the character’s original name, Ruth Bat-Seraph, and she is described as “a former Black Widow” that is now a “high-ranking U.S. government official.” Black Widows are assassins for Russia, a country that is known for its antisemitism and persecution of Jews.

According to Marvel, “While our characters and stories are inspired by the comics, they are always freshly imagined for the screen and today’s audience, and the filmmakers are taking a new approach with the character Sabra who was first introduced in the comics over 40 years ago.”

Yes, the Disney Company has their finger on the pulse of the movie going public. So far, they have alienated:

  • White people.
  • Straight people.
  • Men.
  • Marvel fans.
  • Star Wars fans.
  • Christians.
  • Muslims (yeah, LGBTQ-thing doesn’t go well with Muslims).
  • And, now, Jews.

So, I guess the market they are targeting is the trans-lesbian-Native-American-wiccan. Maybe we can throw druids in there too.

That’s not it.

One of the problems with Leftists is they have distinct picture on what groups of people actually look like. Apparently, Disney has an idea of what the typical alcoholic is like.

According to the New York Post:

Disney World has removed a beloved character that has been a staple at the amusement park for over 50 years as the character was deemed “insensitive and outdated” — and could offend alcoholics.

Liver Lips McGrowl, one of the 18 animatronic bears of the “Country Bear Jamboree” at Magic Kingdom, will not be making his grand return alongside the other robotic mammals when the attraction reopens Wednesday after a seven-month hiatus.

The term “liver lips,” which is considered derogatory and offensive, is associated with alcohol abuse and the damage it does to the liver, Disney blog Inside the Magic said.

The term is also seen as a derogatory and offensive stereotype used against black Americans to describe the shape of their lips as sickly or unhealthy, according to the Street.com.

Instead, McGrowl will be replaced by Romeo McGrowl, a bear with the same last name and a similar facial appearance as Liver Lips but with a James Dean-esque coif.

Romeo joins the furry ensemble of Harry, Big Al, Wendell and Teddi Barra, Ernest the “Dude,” Terrence “Shaker,” and Trixie along with the “Five Bear Rugs.”

The removal of Liver Lips McGrowl is part of a bigger trend in Disney under which the park has made a “commitment to addressing and rectifying outdated or culturally insensitive elements within its attractions,” the blog post said.

The attraction, a “knee-slappin’ good time” inside the rustic theater Grizzly Hall, will reopen as the “Country Bear Musical Jamboree” ride at Magic Kingdom’s Frontierland.

Stoned Fish

According to the New York Post:

Sharks taken from the waters off the coast of Brazil have tested positive for cocaine, with wild theories emerging about how they came to ingest the drug.

Researchers bought thirteen sharpnose sharks from fishermen operating near Rio de Janerio.

The sharks were dissected and their liver and muscle tissue tested for cocaine with all the samples coming back as positive.

The concentration of cocaine was as much as 100 times higher than had been previously recorded in other marine animals.

The results have confirmed long held fears that drugs are affecting sea life.

The research was taken out by six Brazilian research groups, alongside the Cape Eleuthera Institute in the Bahamas and published in the science journal Science of the Total Environment.

Theories of where the cocaine comes from include a spillover from an illegal drug lab or from the excrement of drug users.

Another theory is that they could have been feeding off bundles of cocaine that were lost or dumped in the sea by drug traffickers.

While it is not known how the drug affected the sharks it is possible it made them more aggressive and unpredictable.

“This may be the case, as cocaine targets the brain, and hyperactive and erratic behaviour has been noted in other animals. It’s a possibility and further studies are required,” said Dr Enrico Mendes Saggioro, an ecotoxicologist.

Of Course You Never Heard About This

According to the New York Post:

A Michigan man suspected of running down an 80-year-old with an ATV in a politically motivated attack has been found dead by apparent suicide, according to reports.

The 22-year-old suspect was found in his home with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound on Monday, after having called police looking to confess, according to WLUC.

“Send someone to pick me up,” the unidentified suspect told cops, who responded to his Quincy home and found him dead.

He was wanted for a spree of vandalism on Sunday afternoon that left an 80-year-old man in critical condition.

The suspect had accosted the elderly man as he placed pro-Donald Trump signs in his yard, initially ripping them up while speeding by on the ATV.

Prior to the vicious attack, the suspect was seen smashing car windows and slashing tires.

Oh, Please God, End the Misery!

According to Fox News:

A hydrothermal explosion inside Yellowstone National Park sent rocks and debris flying Tuesday morning, damaging a pedestrian boardwalk and forcing the closure of the area, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) officials said Tuesday.

Footage captures images of a pillar of dirt and debris shooting upward near Sapphire Pool within the basin, sending the debris onto a boardwalk and park visitors below.

“Back up! Back up! Back up!” says a visitor in one video, as others can be seen running away from the explosion.

The eruption occurred at around 10 a.m. local time at the park’s Biscuit Basin, according to the National Park Service. Various videos on social media show people were nearby when the explosion occurred, but there are no reports of any injuries

According to the USGS, the Biscuit Basin parking lot and boardwalks are now temporarily closed for visitor safety.  They noted that geologists are investigating the event. 

Hydrothermal explosions occur when water suddenly flashes to steam underground, and they are relatively common in Yellowstone, USGS officials said. 

“It’s sort of an underappreciated hazard in the Yellowstone region,” said Michael Poland, scientist-in-charge with the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory and geophysicist with the USGS.

Episode 927 – Their Commitment to Incompetence is Impressive

Alejandro Mayorkas continues to defend the incompetence of his Secret Service Secretary, Kimberly Cheatle.

The world has lost a terrible and stupid career politician. That means the media will spend the entire week celebrating her worthless ass. We need to talk about this.

And just because one can sing doesn’t mean one is a good person. Let’s talk about Barbara Streisand.

She Should Just Resign

Jim Jordan:

Nancy Mace:

AOC:

Jasmine Crockett:

Their Commitment to Incompetence is Impressive

According to the Daily Wire

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has been called to account for a number of apparent security failures that led to an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump last Saturday – and while he has made no move thus far to answer those questions, he did take time on Saturday to issue a memo demanding people stop criticizing female agents.

In the memo, Mayorkas complained about the “baseless and insulting” suggestions that perhaps the Secret Service should not have put women on Trump’s security detail at the Butler, Pennsylvania, rally.

So this is the statement:

https://www.dailywire.com/news/mayorkas-has-no-answer-for-secret-service-failures-issues-memo-demanding-people-stop-making-female-agents-feel-bad?%3Futm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=dwnewstwitter

Dumbass of the Day

This dumbass questioned at the mall isn’t the only one who said something like this. Barbara Streisand, the has-been singer, also made a comment. She thinks Trump deserved it because he said things she didn’t like.

According to Breitbart:

Less than a week after a would-be assassin tried to kill former President Donald Trump, Hollywood star Barbra Streisand is pushing a bizarre claim that Trump brought this on himself because he is a “bully.”

Barbra Streisand floated her cockeyed karmic theory in an X post this week, asserting that the would-be assassin, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was frequently bulled at school and was therefore motivated to kill ‘bully” Trump.

“Thomas Matthew Crooks was a registered Republican but as it has been reported he was bullied a lot in school. Trump has always been branded to be a bully. Maybe that’s what motivated him,” Streisand said.

So why do I point these two dumbasses out? Because there is no center ground with these people. They think murder is completely justified because Trump leans right and they would wish the same thing on anyone who is vocal and they disagree with.

Trump was right. These people are after anyone they disagree with to the point they don’t want us to exist anymore. That is what Trump meant when he said we have to fight.

Sorry, She Is What She Is

According to the New York Times:

Representative Sheila Jackson Lee, a Democrat from Texas who was a leading voice for racial justice and progressive causes during three decades in the House, died on Friday in Houston. She was 74.

Her death was announced in a statement by her family that did not list a cause. She said in June that she had pancreatic cancer.

“By God’s grace, I will be back at full strength soon,” she told constituents at the time.

Ms. Jackson Lee was the author and lead sponsor of the legislation that in 2021 established Juneteenth — commemorating the day in 1865 when the last slaves in Texas finally learned of their freedom — as the first new federal holiday in 38 years.

“I thought it was extremely important,” she said on CNN in 2022 “to pass a federal holiday that would give America a moment to be able to reflect not just on the jubilation of freedom, but also the brutality of slavery and what it meant to human beings.”

That’s pretty much all she did while she was in Congress. Oh, yeah, and she was a racial grifter.

Continuing:

A former member of the Houston City Council who was elected to Congress in 1994, Representative Jackson Lee was an irrepressible presence from the start, relentlessly lobbying senior members for speaking time and almost always getting her way.

To critics, she would say that she was just serving her constituents.

“You have an obligation to make sure that their concerns are heard, are answered,” she said in a 1999 interview with The New York Times. “I need to make a difference. I don’t have wealth to write a check. But maybe I can be a voice arguing consistently for change.”

So she was in Congress for 30 years and the only thing she did was make Juneteenth a holiday. Jeez, we need term limits.

Continuing:

During her congressional career, Representative Jackson Lee served as chairwoman of the Judiciary Subcommittee for Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security, and as a senior member of the Judiciary, Homeland Security and Budget committees.

“Always fearless, she spoke truth to power and represented the power of the people of her district in Houston with dignity and grace,” President Biden said in a statement issued on Saturday.

The Congressional Black Caucus called Representative Jackson Lee “a fierce advocate for social and economic justice, national and homeland security, energy independence, and children and working families” in a statement released late Friday.

In other words, she was a peddler in racial grievance.

I’m done with this syrupy article about a career useless person.

The article failed to mention a couple of things. First, she was abusive to her staff. Brutally abusive. She was known to cuss them out for not doing what she wanted or making mistakes. Here is a leaked audio. I just want you to imagine if a Republican did this:

Apparently this wasn’t a one-off. She got sued over crap like this.

She was also a big gun control advocate. Here’s a problem. She knew nothing about guns. Here she is, talking about why AR-15s need to be banned:

This is the reasoning from a person trying to take away your Second Amendment rights.

But, more so, she’s just stupid. Here she is discussing the mood during last year’s solar eclipse:

Why am I making such a big stink about someone who just died? Because she’s a bad, stupid person and everyone is celebrating her worthless life. I don’t care who you are or whether you’re alive or dead, if you’re a bad person, you’re a bad person and attitude should change just because that person has died.

As far as I’m concerned, the world is a better place without her.

Episode 926 – The Storm is Brewing!

Joe Biden is out. Get ready for all hell to break loose.

He’s Done

Joe Biden has decided not to run for President. He released a statement from Delaware. The statement was written on his own stationary and was released on X. He did not have a press conference and is not expected to until Tuesday and Wednesday. Kind of makes you wonder, right?

Here’s the statement:

Some things:

  • The lies continue. The country is not in great shape and they had no big victories.
  • Our standing around the world has weakened. Hell, there are two wars with a third brewing in the far east.
  • Why is it in the “best interest of the country”? If things are going so great, wouldn’t it be the best thing for the country to stay in?
  • He should have been speaking to the country on Sunday. Not through a letter posted on X.

Other things:

  • His campaign was completely surprised by this.
  • As of four hours before the announcement, people believed he was going to stay in.

Notice something is missing from his praise of Kamala Harris? No endorsement.

He later released another tweet on X.

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

So, I guess Biden’s handlers just forgot about that little tidbit. We will get into Kamala Harris running for President in a second because it seems this is going to be a little more complicated

Kamala also released a statement:

This is going to be the BS we will be hearing for the next three months. Biden was not a good President, he is not a nice guy, he is not running the country and he’s senile. Kamala Harris is Brutus waiting to knife Caesar in the groin without being caught.

Trump’s Response

Speaking of Brutus

The Obamas also released a statement:

“Joe Biden has been one of America’s most consequential presidents, as well as a dear friend and partner to me. Today, we’ve also been reminded — again — that he’s a patriot of the highest order.

“Sixteen years ago, when I began my search for a vice president, I knew about Joe’s remarkable career in public service. But what I came to admire even more was his character — his deep empathy and hard-earned resilience; his fundamental decency and belief that everyone counts.

“Since taking office, President Biden has displayed that character again and again. He helped end the pandemic, created millions of jobs, lowered the cost of prescription drugs, passed the first major piece of gun safety legislation in 30 years, made the biggest investment to address climate change in history, and fought to ensure the rights of working people to organize for fair wages and benefits. Internationally, he restored America’s standing in the world, revitalized NATO, and mobilized the world to stand up against Russian aggression in Ukraine. More than that, President Biden pointed us away from the four years of chaos, falsehood, and division that had characterized Donald Trump’s administration.

A lot of bullshit.

“For him to look at the political landscape and decide that he should pass the torch to a new nominee is surely one of the toughest in his life. But I know he wouldn’t make this decision unless he believed it was right for America. It’s a testament to Joe Biden’s love of country — and a historic example of a genuine public servant once again putting the interests of the American people ahead of his own that future generations of leaders will do well to follow.

“We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead. But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges. I believe that Joe Biden’s vision of a generous, prosperous, and united America that provides opportunity for everyone will be on full display at the Democratic Convention in August.

“And I expect that every single one of us are prepared to carry that message of hope and progress forward into November and beyond. For now, Michelle and I just want to express our love and gratitude to Joe and Jill for leading us so ably and courageously during these perilous times — and for their commitment to the ideals of freedom and equality that this country was founded on.”

Notice something is missing? His support for Kamala Harris. In fact, it sounds like he is expecting an open convention.

I never want to hear anything from the Democrats and media about Democracy being under threat again. We’ll get more into that later.

Clinton’s Statement

According to the New York Times:

Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton posted a statement on social media on Sunday afternoon endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris to take President Biden’s place as the party’s nominee for November.

“We are honored to join the President in endorsing Vice President Harris and will do whatever we can to support her,” they wrote in the statement, which was posted within 90 minutes of Mr. Biden announcing that he would leave the race and back Ms. Harris as his replacement in the race against former President Donald J. Trump.

“We’ve lived through many ups and downs,” the Clintons said, “but nothing has made us more worried for our country than the threat posed by a second Trump term.”

The statement concluded, “Now is the time to support Kamala Harris and fight with everything we’ve got to elect her. America’s future depends on it.”

Well, at least we know Hilary is not running again. They decided to support Kamala. Or is she? The plot thickens.

What’s the Score?

Who supports Kamala Harris for President? Let’s take a look:

Yea!

  • The Bidens
  • The Clintons
  • The Squad
  • Ted Lui
  • Adam Schiff
  • James Clyburn
  • The View
  • Elizabeth Warren
  • Amy Klobuchar

Nay!

  • The Obamas
  • Hakeem Jeffries
  • Nancy Pelosi
  • Chuck Schumer
  • Bernie Sanders

This will change. More people will make their opinions known as the week passes.

Dumbass of the Day

Yeah, white people made Joe Biden senile. These guys are going to go insane over the next few days until the Democrats come up with some narrative.

Time for Some Analysis

I have some thoughts:

  • The Democratic party used Joe Biden because people liked him and then shivved him in the back when everyone figured out what was going on.
  • There was some deal made with Biden. I’m sure he just made a ton of money, got his beautiful Presidential library and will have an airport named after him. Money and prestige are all that prideful piece of shit is interested in.
  • Biden will speak this week because he must to maintain the presidency for the next six months, but don’t expect two words from him after that.
  • Democrats and the media will have to keep saying how great Biden was because they want a candidate that will do exactly what he did. Someone to control. Trump is going to run on Biden’s policies, not his senility. Every other Democrat is going to will do exactly what Biden did. This is why I don’t think Republicans should focus on his incompetence.
  • Who will be the next Democratic candidate? Who knows.
    • Kamala has to be in the lead. The campaign money cannot be legally transferred. Court cases will happen, but I do not think those cases can come fast enough. She was also part of the ticket that won the primary.
    • Hilary? Doubt it. She hasn’t developed a personality since 2016.
    • Bernie? He was popular in 2020. I could see him jumping in if the cards are laid correctly.
    • AOC? She’s stupid and crazy. I can see her throwing her hat in the ring.
    • Gavin Newsom or Gretchen Whitmore? No. Those two are not going to want to get in the middle of this mess especially since their policies mimic Biden’s policies. Not to mention, their states are a mess.
    • Josh Shapiro. Doubt it. He’s a Jewish, moderate democrat. The Left would eat him alive.
    • Finally, what about Michelle Obama? She is the most viable person, but I doubt it. She hates politics and is living a pretty good life now. It just depends who wears the pants in the Obama household.
    • All this depends if the Dems are going to have an open convention.
  • What about Hunter?
    • He will be pardoned by his father. Joe can’t rely on Dems winning the Presidency.
    • Hunter’s corruption will not be forgotten. It is the same corruption that every other Dem has been embracing.

Episode 925 – The Party is Over!

Joe Biden Might be done. I’ll give you my thoughts.

More information comes out about the Trump assassination attempt.

And it doesn’t sound like any of this political violence is over yet.

It’s Not Over

According to the Daily Wire:

A man wearing a ski mask who was armed with an AK-47 was arrested near the Republican National Convention this week as he approached the perimeter of the event, police revealed in a statement Tuesday evening.

Homeland Security Investigators and Capitol Police were surveilling the area on Monday, which comes just days after former President Donald Trump was shot during an assassination attempt, when they noticed a suspicious man approaching, Fox News reported.

The man was carrying a tactical bag that had an AK-47 and ammunition inside, the report said. It’s not clear what he was planning to do.

“Milwaukee Police arrested a 21-year-old man for carrying a concealed weapon on July 15, 2024, at approximately 1:00 p.m., on the 1200 block of N. 11th Street,” the Milwaukee Police Department said in a statement. “United States Capitol Police initially observed the suspect looking suspicious, wearing a ski mask and a large tactical backpack in the street.”

“United States Capitol Police performed a subject stop, and it was determined that the suspect was concealing a firearm in his backpack,” the statement added. “The suspect does not have a legal CCW permit in Wisconsin or any other state. The suspect was arrested, and charges are pending review by the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office.”

Biden is Not Out of the Woods

According to the Post Millennial:

In an interview with the LA Times on Wednesday, Rep. Adam Schiff, who is running for the late Senator Dianne Feinstein’s seat, called for Biden to “pass the torch” and drop out of the presidential race.

Schiff told the outlet he had “serious concerns” over whether Biden could beat Trump come November, adding that despite this, Biden “has been one of the most consequential presidents in our nation’s history, and his lifetime of service as a Senator, a Vice President, and now as President has made our country better.”

“But our nation is at a crossroads,” he said. “A second Trump presidency will undermine the very foundation of our democracy, and I have serious concerns about whether the President can defeat Donald Trump in November.” 

He said that the “choice to withdraw from the campaign is President Biden’s alone,” but Schiff said he believed it’s time “to pass the torch” and “secure his legacy of leadership” by stepping aside. Schiff’s call for Biden to step down joins calls from other Democrat politicians and pundits for Biden to leave the race following his dismal debate performance.

Schiff said he would support whoever takes the Democratic nomination, including Biden, stating, “I will do everything I can to help them succeed. There is only one singular goal: defeating Donald Trump. The stakes are just too high.”

Is This Legal?

According to the Daily Wire:

President Joe Biden is reportedly planning to push major changes to the Supreme Court after years of lobbing attacks against the court and flouting its authority.

Biden is planning to endorse an effort to establish term limits for Supreme Court, as well as enact an enforceable code of ethics for justices, according to The Washington Post. The effort may include other changes, as well as a push for a constitutional amendment that would strike broad immunity for constitutional officeholders, such as Supreme Court justices, the president, and others.

The left flank of the Democratic Party has pressured the president to crack down on the Supreme Court for years, particularly after the court overturned Roe v. Wade and then recently ruled that presidents have immunity from prosecution for exercising core constitutional powers. Biden outlined his plans in a call over the weekend with the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

“I’m going to need your help on the Supreme Court, because I’m about to come out — I don’t want to prematurely announce it — but I’m about to come out with a major initiative on limiting the court … I’ve been working with constitutional scholars for the last three months, and I need some help,” Biden told the caucus, according to a transcript obtained by The Washington Post.

The feasibility of Biden’s proposed changes is unclear. The changes would likely need congressional approval, a dubious bet with Republicans in control of the House of Representatives, though only by a thin margin.

Sure, Keep Him!

According to the New York Post:

President Biden was handed a private note during a recent call with Democratic House lawmakers telling him to “stay positive” — and he read it out loud. 

A staffer gave the 81-year-old president a note card with tips as he attempted to persuade members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus on Saturday that he was fit to serve and able to defeat former President Donald Trump on Election Day, the New York Times reported.

“Stay positive, you are sounding defensive,” Biden said on the call, seemingly reading directly from his staffer’s short missive.

One lawmaker told the New York Times that the moment represented how “stage-managed” calls between the president and lawmakers concerned about his re-election chances have seemed. 

Biden has long been known to rely on note cards for press conferences, summits and private fundraisers, instructing him where to sit, what to do and who people are. 

Still, the lawmaker also interpreted the moment as the president “poking fun at his aides” rather than accidentally reading the private memo.

They Are After Your Kids

According to the AP:

California became the first U.S. state to bar school districts from requiring staff to notify parents of their child’s gender identification change under a law signed Monday by Gov. Gavin Newsom.

The law bans school rules requiring teachers and other staff to disclose a student’s gender identity or sexual orientation to any other person without the child’s permission. Proponents of the legislation say it will help protect LGBTQ+ students who live in unwelcoming households. But opponents say it will hinder schools’ ability to be more transparent with parents.

The legislation comes amid a nationwide debate over local school districts and the rights of parents and LGBTQ+ students.

“This law helps keep children safe while protecting the critical role of parents,” Brandon Richards, a spokesperson for Newsom, said in a statement. “It protects the child-parent relationship by preventing politicians and school staff from inappropriately intervening in family matters and attempting to control if, when, and how families have deeply personal conversations.”

Actually, it does the opposite.

In other news concerning this subject, Elon Musk has had enough. He stated that he was taking Space X out of California.

Episode 924 – The Liars Got Lied To!

The media is fumbling over itself, trying to follow their own guidelines.

Justice may finally kick the balls of corruption in the government.

And the Secret Service already knew Trump was a target and that was how they protected him?!

Dumbass of the Day

They Made Up This Mess

About Time

According to Fox News:

The jury in the federal corruption trial of Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., and two of his business associates, Fred Daibes and Wael Hana, found Menendez guilty on all charges after a grueling nine-week complex trial in Manhattan.

Menendez pleaded not guilty to federal charges that he accepted an array of bribes in exchange for helping foreign governments. Jurors deliberated for three days. The conviction on all 16 counts against him exposes Menendez to a sentence of more than 200 years in prison, though such a heavy sentence is unlikely.

The judge scheduled the senator’s sentencing date for Oct. 29.

What did he do?

During the trial, prosecutors used cited emails and text messages from Menendez – as well as FBI testimony – to present evidence they argued shows the senator accepted extravagant gifts from foreign governments. The gifts totaled more than $100,000 worth of gold bars, in addition to hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash stuffed throughout Menendez’s New Jersey home.

In March, an 18-page indictment was wrapped into Menendez’s existing charges already against him and his co-defendants — including his wife, Nadine — for allegedly acting as a foreign agent and accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes to benefit the Egyptian government through his power and influence as a senator.

The indictment came after co-defendant Jose Uribe – who allegedly gifted Nadine a Mercedes convertible – accepted a plea deal and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors. The charges also alleged Menendez committed conspiracy, bribery, acting as a foreign agent, extortion and wire fraud.

Why Shouldn’t They Try?

According to CNN:

US authorities obtained intelligence from a human source in recent weeks on a plot by Iran to try to assassinate Donald Trump, a development that led to the Secret Service increasing security around the former president in recent weeks, multiple people briefed on the matter told CNN.

There’s no indication that Thomas Matthew Crooks, the would-be assassin who attempted to kill the former president on Saturday, was connected to the plot, the sources said.

The existence of the intelligence threat from a hostile foreign intelligence agency — and the enhanced security for Trump — raises new questions about the security lapses at the Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and how a 20-year-old man managed to access a nearby rooftop to fire shots that injured the former president.

A US national security official said the Secret Service and Trump campaign were made aware of the threat before Saturday’s rally.

“Secret Service learned of the increased threat from this threat stream,” the official told CNN. “NSC directly contacted USSS at a senior level to be absolutely sure they continued to track the latest reporting. USSS shared this information with the detail lead, and the Trump campaign was made aware of an evolving threat. In response to the increased threat, Secret Service surged resources and assets for the protection of former President Trump. All of this was in advance of Saturday.”

Episode 923 – This is How Conspiracy Theories Are Born

Donald Trump has been nominated for President at the Republican National Convention.

JD Vance has been picked for Vice President. We’ll talk about that one.

And Elon Musk has decided to support Trump in a big way.

Some News

Here is some news

  • Donald Trump is officially the Republican candidate for President.
  • JD Vance was picked by Trump to be the VP candidate.
    • He is a Senator from Ohio.
    • He started out poor.
    • He joined the Marines.
    • He got his B.A. from Ohio State University.
    • Got his law degree from Yale.
    • So much for the rhetoric tamping down. The Biden/Harris campaign tweeted after Vance was announced: “Trump has selected far-right MAGA extremist JD Vance as his running mate. Vance is a 2020 election denier, supports a national abortion ban, and voted against IVF access.”
  • The leftist network decided not to air the top-rated politics show’s first broadcast since Saturday’s deadly shooting over concerns that one of the show’s guests might make an “inappropriate comment on live television that could be used to assail the program and network as a whole,” CNN reported, citing a person familiar with the matter.
  • Protestors are outside the RNC and have been loud. They have not caused any damage, but are very close to the delegates.
  • Democrats may push to nominate early to avoid a Democratic rebellion. The Democrats are stuck with Biden. It sounds like Democrats are conceding the election.
  • The Wall Street Journal reported Musk that is committing to giving $45 million a month to America PAC. Other major backers of the PAC include Palantir Technologies co-founder Joe Lonsdale, the Winklevoss twins, former U.S. ambassador Kelly Craft and her husband, Joe Craft, who is the CEO of Alliance Resource Partners, the report said.
    • The political action committee is focused on “registering voters and persuading constituents to vote early and request mail-in ballots in swing states,” the report said, adding that the group wanted to neutralize the massive advantage Democrats have had for years with their “get out the vote” campaigns.

This is How Conspiracy Theories Start

More updates (or lack thereof):

  • The shooter was spotted with a scope 30 minutes before Trump took the stage.
  • Some snipers were in the building that the shooter was perched on.
  • The FBI said it was having trouble getting into the shooter’s phone. The finally got in.
  • There is still no motive.

I Got Some Problems Here

Just Weird

According to Fox News:

Florida mass shooter Nikolas Cruz has agreed to donate his brain to science in a “unique” civil settlement reached with one of his victims, according to court papers and experts.

Cruz used an AR-15 assault rifle to massacre 17 students and staffers at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland on Feb. 14, 2018, in one of the deadliest mass shootings in the nation’s history. 

An attorney for Anthony Borges, 21, who was shot five times in the attack, proposed the unusual stipulation.

“I figured if scientists studied his brain they might be able to figure out what created this monster,” Borges’ lawyer, Alex Arreaza, told Fox News Digital. “Maybe there was some kind of imbalance that caused this that we can prevent in the future.”

Berkeley-based attorney Scott Herndon, who has represented victims of mass shooters, called the settlement novel. 

“I’ve never heard of anything like this before. It’s pretty unique,” he told Fox News Digital. “It underscores the feeling of those left behind that whatever can be done to avoid these massacres in the future should be done.”

The new settlement agreement also gives Borges the right to Cruz’s name for use in movies, books and other media.

The 25-year-old killer, who is serving life in prison, can’t profit from his crime and must obtain permission from Borges prior to giving any interviews.

It Just Keeps Getting Better

According to KTLA Channel 5, Los Angeles:

California will impose permanent water restrictions for the first time in history after the state’s Water Resources Control Board approved a long-debated policy.

The policy, dubbed Making Conservation a California Way of Life, is intended to permanently decrease statewide water use so that water reductions during droughts aren’t as severe.  The new policy was prompted by legislation signed by former Gov. Jerry Brown in 2018.

Retail water suppliers, not individual households or businesses, will now be required to reduce their water use by close to 30% over the next 15 years. Suppliers who do not follow the new guidelines will face $10,000 daily fines.

Suppliers will have to find ways to encourage their customers to reduce their water usage, such as imposing restrictions or promoting the use of low-flow appliances.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, the cuts will not be based on a one-size-fits-all method but on a formula that weighs several factors, including the area’s past water consumption, climate, and land use.

Some areas, like the Bay Area, won’t see dramatic reductions since water use in the region has historically been low. For the Los Angeles County area, water use reductions will also vary.

Not a Mental Illness, Huh?

According to the Post Millennial:

A 16-year-old girl who had been transitioning to the opposite sex, per police, was arrested over the weekend in Palm Bay, Florida after allegedly killing her mother and her mother’s boyfriend. Julia Egler was subsequently charged with two counts of premeditated first-degree murder for the deaths of Kelley McCollom and Matthew Szejnrok.

Egler initially staged a home invasion in an attempt to convince police she was simply an innocent bystander to a grisly double homicide, but later came clean and admitted that she had killed them. The teen cited disagreements with her mother over “her transition,” claiming she “was not very accepting.”

As WKMG reports, shortly after midnight on Sunday police pulled up to an address on Bencher Road after Egler herself called 911 to report a home invasion. The teen told officers she had been in her room when a man broke in and attacked the pair. She proceeded to show evidence she’d planted, however eventually investigators caught on and took her in for questioning.

Egler reportedly said she used a .38 caliber revolver that she stole from her mother’s room to shoot her and Szejnrok. The former died instantly, while the latter was still alive. After running out of bullets, Egler grabbed a chef’s knife and stabbed him again, before he asked her to reload the gun and shoot him dead.

According to WFTV, at the station, she confessed that it was she who had committed the murders, noting that the attack was the culmination of “many disagreements in the previous weeks.” She told police that she “was not happy with the fact that [McCollom] was not very accepting of her transition, and she also did not like that [McCollom] was dating [Szejnrok] who was 22 years old.”

Egler was transported to a juvenile detention center, where she remains in custody.

Episode 922 – Shocked But Not Surprised

Tucker Carlson hit it on the head last year.

The Latest

Here is the latest news of the Trump assassination attempts:

  • The shooter’s name is Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old man.
    • Explosives were found in his car and at his home.
    • He lived about 1 1/2 hours from the rally.
    • He used his father’s AR-15. Not much is known about the legality of the gun.
    • He had left-leaning ties though he was a registered Republican. Not much is known about that.
  • Trump will arrive at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Monday as originally planned.
  • One man, 50-year-old Corey Comperatore of Sarver, Pennsylvania, was killed shielding his family from bullets.

The Secret Service

There are some issues with the Secret Service that are going to have to be addressed:

  • How did this guy get onto the roof only 130 yards away from Donald Trump?
  • When people saw the assassin, what took so long for the Secret Service snipers to react?
    • It was policy. A very bad policy.
    • The shooter must shoot first.
    • Any action must be cleared by supervisors first.
    • The shooter shot before anything could be done.
    • The video shows people were screaming about the shooter and the snipers saw him also.
  • Is DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) an issue? I’d say it is.
    • Three of Trump’s bodyguards were women a foot shorter than Trump.
    • One woman couldn’t holster her weapon.
    • All three women looked completely confused.
    • Kimberly Cheadle, the director of the Secret Service, said she wants to increase the number of women to 30% over her tenure. She said it was her priority. Shouldn’t her priority be to protect the president and former president?
    • Is she hiring people that will meet her DEI quota or is she hiring the best people? I think we know the answer to that question.

The Media

Maybe This Had Something to Do With It

Another Crazy Conspiracy Theory

https://www.dailywire.com/news/actress-dragged-for-calling-trump-assassination-attempt-staged

The Nut Jobs

It is always a shock to see something like this. But this wasn’t a surprise. The tried to impeach him twice, tried to take his money, tried to shutter his businesses and take his property, tried to ruin his reputation and are trying to throw him in prison. Nothing else has worked.

This is all they have left. Don’t be surprised if this happens again.

More Information

Here is some more information that I heard but has been confirmed:

  • The Secret Service had fewer agents with Trump because Jill Biden was holding an event near by. I don’t know how near or anything. JILL BIDEN?! REALLY?!
  • Trump only had two snipers with him and the rest of his detailed was very overworked.
  • The Secret Service was responsible for the rally area, local police were responsible outside of the perimeter.
  • The shooter was confronted by a local policeman on the roof. The rifle was pointed at him and he ducked down. The shooter turned and started shooting.
  • Thomas Matthew Crooks, the shooter, was called a potential school shooter by his classmates. There are always red flags.

Episode 921 – Yeah, It Didn’t Go Well

Joe Biden had his much anticipated, big-boy news conference. The average viewer would think it didn’t go well. The media is saying it was a good one. Joe Biden will be the Democratic nominee.

Jen Psaki has an idea as to why nobody likes Kamala.

And Neil DeGrass-Tyson has decided to believe in science again. That’s good because I like the guy.

Not Good

Was this a “big boy” press conference? Don’t think so:

  • He had a note card.
  • He started with a teleprompter.
  • He had a list of reporters to call on.
  • His aids yelled over the microphone that the press conference is over.
  • The press conference started two hours late.

Then there are the leaks:

  • Biden hasn’t held a cabinet meeting since October.
  • Since being president, he has not held an unscripted cabinet meeting.
  • He has been pre-scripting interviews.
  • The White House has been requesting edits to interviews.

She’s So Dumb

According to ABC News:

New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has introduced articles of impeachment against Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas.

Ocasio-Cortez has long criticized multiple conservative members of the Supreme Court, but the rhetoric of impeachment was amped up in the wake of recent rulings, including the court’s decision on presidential immunity.

“The unchecked corruption crisis on the Supreme Court has now spiraled into a Constitutional crisis threatening American democracy writ large,” Ocasio-Cortez said in a statement. “Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito’s pattern of refusal to recuse from consequential matters before the court in which they hold widely documented financial and personal entanglements constitutes a grave threat to American rule of law, the integrity of our democracy, and one of the clearest cases for which the tool of impeachment was designed.”

Ocasio-Cortez specifically criticized gifts Thomas received from his friend, billionaire Harlan Crow.

“Clarence Thomas, in his conduct as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, engaged in high crimes and misdemeanors, by refusing to report the source, description, and value of gifts, and by failing to report of real estate property,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote in the articles, going on to list gifts he did not reportedly reveal.

Thomas acknowledged in his latest annual financial report, released in June, that he had “inadvertently omitted” reimbursement for food and lodging expenses for the July 2019 travel.

More Bad Policies

According to the National Review:

House Republicans and a handful of Democrats passed legislation on Wednesday requiring proof of U.S. citizenship in order to vote, a top GOP priority that Democratic leadership strongly opposed.

The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act was supported by 216 Republicans and five Democrats, with 198 Democratic lawmakers opposing the bill. It is unlikely to go anywhere in the Democratic-controlled Senate.

The SAVE Act would require voters to provide proof of citizenship including a valid photo ID and documentation such as a birth certificate.

Republicans have warned of illegal immigrants potentially registering to vote and casting ballots in national elections this year. Although documentary proof of citizenship is not required for federal voter registration forms, it is illegal to falsely claim oneself to be a U.S. citizen.

Noncitizen voting is not a widely documented phenomenon, but some deep-blue locales have passed laws permitting it. The left-wing Brennan Center found 30 suspected cases of noncitizen voting out of 23.5 million votes across 42 jurisdictions in the 2016 election.

“Over the past four years, Joe Biden has welcomed millions upon millions of illegals into the country knowing that noncitizens only have to check a box to vote in a federal election,” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) said in a statement.

The Democrats fought hard to stop this thing from passing.

Frigging Perverts

According to the Post Millennial:

Legislation increasing penalties for people who solicit, agree to engage in, or engage in any act of commercial sex with a minor is being opposed by a group of activists, claiming that it disproportionately harms minorities and the LGBTQ community. The bill has also been watered down from its original punitive measures.  

Activists opposed the legislation that would make a felony to purchase or solicit children for sex, claiming during public testimony on the legislation that “SB 1414 takes an overly punitive approach that fails to address the root causes of these issues and will not effectively stop sexual violence.”  

Senate Bill 1414 passed a vote in the Public Safety Committee last week. State Sen. Shannon Grove originally proposed making it a felony for someone to solicit teenagers 17 and younger, however, the bill was watered down by the committee to exclude those ages 16 and 17. 

The committee later revised the bill to include 16- and 17-year-olds, but with the caveat that prosecutors now must prove that the 16- or 17-year-olds were not only solicited for sex but also are victims of sex trafficking

Grove told KCRA 3 that the change to put 16 and 17-year-olds back in the bill is just political showmanship. “I think Kevin McCarty is looking for a way to put 16- and 17-year-olds back in the bill and say he was successful, but he only damaged them further.” The question still remains as to what form the bill will ultimately pass.
