Another example why Republicans and Conservatives need to use the courts.
Joe Biden is really having a bad summer. Politically, mind you, his actual summer is better than a ten year old’s trip to Disney World.
And if you hate this country, just go somewhere else.
Dumbass of the Day
Some News
Here is some news:
- A federal appeals court issued a major free speech ruling on Tuesday stating Washington, D.C., “selectively enforced” defacement ordinances against pro-life advocates while allowing far-Left protestors to graffiti “Black Lives Matter” messaging on city streets during the Summer of 2020.
- U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit stated: “The government may not enforce the laws in a manner that picks winners and losers in public debates. It would undermine the First Amendment’s protections for free speech if the government could enact a content-neutral law and then discriminate against disfavored viewpoints under the cover of prosecutorial discretion.”
- The complaint alleged that D.C. authorities violated the constitutional rights of two pro-life activists by arresting them on August 1, 2020, for chalking “Black Pre-Born Lives Matter” on a public sidewalk outside of a local Planned Parenthood facility.
- As the City of Los Angeles struggled to reduce pedestrian deaths after its deadliest year in decades, state lawmakers have repealed jaywalking laws in the name of equity. And one high-profile prosecutor questioned whether the new rules are saving any lives.
- So far this year, according to the Los Angeles Police Department, the city is on track to see a reduction from 2022’s 20-year high in pedestrian fatalities. But nearly three-quarters of the deaths involved potential jaywalkers.
- “The new law, which legalized jaywalking, was enacted in January of 2023 and has already led to 19 fatalities due to unsafe crossings” out of the 26 pedestrian fatalities in Los Angeles through Aug. 7, McKinney said. “California’s pedestrian fatality rate is [already] 25% above the national average.”
- Most of the people jaywalking have been reported to be homeless people.
- Target experienced a sales downturn in the second quarter amid ongoing consumer backlash from the retailer’s Pride and transgender merchandise.
- Comparable sales slipped 5.4% while the $24.8 billion in total revenue was 4.9% lower than last year.
- Negative reaction to Target’s Pride collection had a material impact on sales, Target CEO Brian Cornell said on a call with reporters.
- Cornell added: “As we navigate an ever-changing operating and social environment, we are applying what we learned.”
- That’s not what Target is there for. Stop “navigating” anything and sell your crap.

Joe Biden is looking more and more incompetent and out of control. People are seeing all this and are really beginning to take notice. How Republicans can’t blow this out of the water, I don’t know.
- Over 50% of the last month has been on vacation.
- Two four day trips to Delaware.
- One four day trip to Camp David.
- An 11 day beach vacation in Delaware.
- A trip working vacation to the Grand Canyon.
- And, now, a working trip to Nevada.
- The anniversary of the Afghanistan pull out is this month. He’s getting torn up about that.
- The Maui fire is really biting him in the ass and this is all his doing.
- His “no comment” when asked about Maui is not going well. It is being compared to him not going to Palestine, Ohio. By the way, there are no plans for him to go to Maui.
- All this shows is he’s apathetic and doesn’t care about people.
- He released a tweet yesterday saying that each family will receive $700 to help with recovery.
- That’s a total of $1.9 million.
- There a total of $6 billion in damage.
- This is all being juxtaposed with Biden giving Ukraine $115 since his presidency began.
- By the way, Biden want to give another $1.2 billion to Ukraine.
- Also, the government has done nothing for Maui so far. Nothing.
- Then there are the gaffes and outright lies.
- He is still holding that he has lowered the deficit by $1.7 trillion. That’s a lie. The deficit is actually higher.
- He’s still yelling that Bidenomics is fantastic and Americans have it better.
- Inflation is three times higher than it should be and was up is July.
- Salaries are way down when compared to inflation.
- People are struggling and no one believes this.
- He is having a press conference today to talk about how great the economy.
- Yesterday, in a speech, he said he was in Pittsburgh and saw one of the bridges collapse. Yeah, that didn’t happen.
- Finally, yesterday there was a post on Twitter:
OK. Here’s the problem, THIS WAS PUBLISHED ON KARIN JEAN PIERRE’S ACCOUNT!
The incompetence is amazing.

Let Him Stay
According to the Daily Wire:
The propaganda arm of the North Korean dictatorship released its first public comment about its detainment of American soldier Travis King, claiming he entered the communist country because he faced mistreatment in the U.S. Army.
King, 23, sprinted across the heavily guarded demilitarized zone (DMZ) line last month while on a civilian tour and was taken into custody by North Korea. When he crossed into the communist country, King had reportedly been disciplined for assault in South Korea and was facing further disciplinary action in the U.S.
North Korean state media said Wednesday that King fled into the country because he “harbored ill feelings against inhuman mistreatment and racial discrimination within the U.S. Army” and “was disillusioned at the unequal American society,” POLITICO reported.
Some Are More Equal Than Others
The family of a Mexican migrant who died in custody of U.S. Border Patrol last year is suing the federal government for negligence, alleging that the man was denied medical care for fatal injuries sustained during a fall from the Otay Mesa border wall.
Joel Reyes Muñoz, 38, died shortly before 3:30 p.m. on Jan. 12, while in custody at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry. He was undocumented at the time of his death.
In a report the following day, San Diego police said Reyes Muñoz, who had not yet been identified, was stricken by some sort of medical emergency as he was waiting for processing in Customs and Border Patrol custody.
However, the complaint, which was filed with the court last Thursday by Reyes Muñoz’s family, alleges that he had sustained “obvious and significant blunt force injuries” in a fall from the high U.S.-Mexico Border barrier prior to his arrest just north of the fence.
Guys, Calm Down!
According to the New York Post:
Summer is heating up for Florida manatees.
The Pinella County Sheriff’s Office shared on Facebook that they get calls “all the time” about passersby seeing manatees by the shore clumped together.
People will call after seeing this startling sight assuming that the manatees are in distress — but they’re actually just mating.
“If you see this, no you didn’t,” the Sheriff’s Office captioned a reel on Facebook, which shows a clump of manatees near the shore with Marvin Gaye’s “Let’s Get It On” playing over it.
“We can assure you they are more than fine,” the caption continued. “Manatees actually mate in herds like these and often they are near the shore. They mate all throughout the year but generally mating herds like these are seen in the summer months.”
