Flotsam and Jetsam - Biden, Trump Troubles Continue

We're still digging around through the remains of this weekend's stuff, looking for edible morsels. Lets see what we found between the couch cushions this morning.

'Bonchie' at Red State says WATCH: We've Reached the 'Perfect Phone Call' Part of the Biden Bribery Scandal "Goldman’s latest gaslighting session happened with Jake Tapper on CNN. In it, not only did the congressman defend Hunter Biden, but he suggested that there was nothing at all questionable about Joe Biden meeting with his son’s business associates." Even At CNN, Jake Tapper and Crew Have ‘So Many Questions’ About Hunter Biden Special Counsel David Weiss, ‘It’s All Very Suspicious!’  NewsBusters asks Will The Media Demand Joe Biden Testify To Congress -- Like Gerald Ford? That's not fair! Ford was a Republican! James Bovard at NYPo is impressed by the audacity of Merrick Garland’s latest dirty trick to protect the Bidens. "Per journalist Paul Sperry, “The statute of limitations for the Hunter Biden gun felony runs out on Oct. 12.” Pity." Jonathan Turley, “Shoeless Joe” and the Fixing of the Biden Scandal "Roughly 100 years ago, “Shoeless” Joe Jackson admitted that, as a player for the Chicago White Sox, he and seven other teammates had intentionally lost the World Series to the Cincinnati Reds in 1919. When a kid stopped him outside of the grand jury room and asked “It ain’t true, is it, Joe?” Jackson responded “Yes, kid, I’m afraid it is.” This is not a case of history repeating itself. After being confronted by allegations of a fixed investigation, Attorney General Merrick Garland just sent Shoeless Joe back into the game." Roger Kimbal at Am Great is Introducing the concept of Contempt of Public "It threatens to undermine that essential if often hard-to-define societal lubricant: trust." Nick Arama at Red State notes that even Raskin Finally Forced to Admit a Little Reality About the Biden Scandal. At Da Caller, ‘Really Unlawful And Wrong Things’: Top Oversight Dem Concedes Hunter Biden May Be In Trouble. From Da Wire, Prosecutors In Criminal Investigation Into Joe Biden Push To Interview President. "Typically, when prosecutors begin pressing to interview the person at center of an investigation, it signals that the probe is reaching its final stages." Hat Hair KT is not the first to observe that a Florida Republican filed articles of impeachment against Biden.

At Am Think we find out what Clarice thinks about The Weaponization of Justice and what Joe Fried thinks about Jack’s Schizophrenic Indictment. The Dersh at Compact says No, the 14th Amendment Can’t Disqualify Trump. Breitbart reports the Fulton County DA to Present Trump Case Before Grand Jury Next Week. I presume she's waiting for more bad news about Biden before springing it on the public.

Joe Klein at Front Page expounds on The Bidenomics Fiasco. "The big gulf between boasts and reality." From the Free Bacon, OUCH: Kamala Harris Gets Brutally Fact Checked for Claiming People Like Her "Most embarrassing fact check of all time?"

Nat Hochman at Am Spec examines Why Is Trump Popular? It’s More Than Class Struggle. "Middle-class Americans just want their country back." Politico cites GOP insiders: Trump can’t win, from 2016. I&I, Even After Three Indictments, Trump Support Rises in a I&I/TIPP Poll. Althouse, The NYT tries to explain the "upside-down reality where criminal charges act as political assets — at least for the purpose of winning the Republican nomination." "I'm reading "How Trump Benefits From an Indictment Effect/In polling, fund-raising and conservative media, the former president has turned criminal charges into political assets" . . . Good. I'm glad this is backfiring. I have never been a Trump supporter, but I hate the criminalization of politics." Tony Gonzales at PJM, hears DeSantis Slams 'Sham' Special Counsel in Hunter Biden Investigation as Trump Arrives in Iowa. At NYPo the divine Ms. Devine is impressed by Happy conservative warrior Glenn Youngkin’s recipe for success in Virginia … and the US.

Stuff Hat Hair finds on TwitterX, WEF to Google founder: Why do we need elections when we know what the result will be? We'll let AI do the voting and count the votes, right after we train it.

PJM's Vicky Taft thinks it's 'Unthinkable:' J6 Committee Accused of DESTROYING Key Intelligence Documents About Capitol Riot.

At the Guardian, FBI’s killing of Utah man prompts questions from neighbors. "Residents ask if Craig Robertson, who could ‘barely get around’ but posted threats against Biden, ‘warranted that kind of response’" It does, if you want to make an example out of him.

Tim Murphy at Am Spec, It’s Time for Some Serious Research into Gender Dysphoria in Kids: "Available studies are fraught with errors." At HE, the sad story of  Sexologist John Money's botched experiments on twin boys and how it led to modern gender ideology. mrcTV reports New College of Florida Trustees Vote to Abolish Gender Studies Program. At Am Think Linda R. Killian thinks about The Mounting Urgency to Affirm Parental Rights. PJM's Rabbi Michael Barclay claims Virgin Atlantic Airways Ruined My Family's Trip With Intrusive Grooming. "If you don’t want to subject your children to conscious sexual confusion and grooming, it seems that the only safe way to still travel as a family is to get in your car for a road trip away from either coast . . . My 13-year-old twins (and everyone else in the lounge) were subjected to a non-stop ad for gender dysphoria." From the Daily Fetched Skittles Faces “Bud Light-Style” BOYCOTT after Placing “Black Trans Lives Matter” on Packaging. Another boycott I can't join because I don't buy the product. 

At Da Caller, Judge Orders 3 Southwest Lawyers Take Religious Liberty Training After Trampling On First Amendment  "A federal judge ordered three Southwest Airlines lawyers to undergo “religious-liberty training” after it fired an attendant who had anti-abortion beliefs, according to reports." Personally, I think a good whipping is in order.

At the College Fix, California bill would make questioning school board members a crime

Senate Bill 596, introduced by Democratic State Senator Anthony Portantino in February and dubbed the “School Employees: Protection” act, expands an existing law “which makes it a misdemeanor for any ‘person’ to threaten or harass a school employee during the ‘course of [their] duties,'” according to the California Globe.

This expansion adds a penalty for creating a “substantial disorder” at any meeting of a public school board, charter school board, county board of education, and the California State Board of Education.

Although “substantial disorder” is not precisely defined, the bill notes that “course of conduct” is “a pattern of conduct composed of two or more acts over a period of time, however short … evidencing a continuity of purpose.”

Gone from the definition of “harassment” is “unlawful violence” and “credible threat of violence,” and in its place is “torments, or terrorizes.”

Hollywood in Toto come up with Bill Maher: College is ‘Bulls***,’ a ‘Scam’ "'Club Random' host, Marianne Williamson tee off on university indoctrination." Sadly, a lot of it is.
