Flotsam and Jetsam - Labor Day Edition

And here I am, laboring away at this post. As with most days recently we'll start with the antics of that doddering crime boss, Joe Biden. James Lynch at Da Caller reports the Author Of Tell-All Book Says Joe Biden Is Insecure About Being ‘Perceived As Stupid’. As Presidents go, he's pretty dull. At Hat Hair, Biden's optics in FL...schmaybe he should have gone to DE for the weekend? Suburban Black Man 🇺🇸@niceblackdude, "Remember when President Trump visited and delivered aid to East Palestine 192 days ago? What the hell is THIS? Biden shows up in Florida, finds the nearest camera, struggles to speak, then flees to the beach. Courtesy of American taxpayers!" Nick Arama at Red State, sees Biden Goes to View Florida Hurricane Damage, Then Laughs, Makes Weird Comment When Asked About DeSantis. From WaEx, Biden says he's been too busy recently to visit East Palestine, Ohio, puh-lease. Fox, Biden says he hasn’t ‘been able to break’ for East Palestine visit, despite Lake Tahoe getaway and DE trips. Breitbart reports Joe Biden Has Spent 40 Percent of Presidency Away on Personal Trips, but as the Babylon Bee the Nation is Torn Between Being Mad Biden Never Shows Up For Work And Being Glad He Never Shows Up For Work.

The divine Ms. Devine at NYPo, Gold Star families force Biden to face his failure in the botched Afghanistan withdrawal: ‘Disgrace to the nation’. NewsAddicts, MUST WATCH: The White House Contains A Creepy Figurine of Trump’s Head Beaten Up — Found In The Press Room. Now imagine the outcry if such a figure of Obama had been found in the Trump White House. 

Sundance at CTH dissects Sunday Talks – Chris Sununu Says Biden Impeachment Would Be “Unhealthy” for Country and Sunday Talks – Stephanopoulos Crew Flummoxed at Strength of National Support for Donald Trump, Easily Leading Biden in Polls. 

Sarah Arnold at Town Hall notes Pete Bootyjuice Wants You to Stop Driving Cars. Can't have the peons going wherever they want whenever they want on their own power. Must restrict them to "public" transportation, to take them where you want them to go, when you want them to. Jazz Shaw at Hat Hair thinks Pete Buttigieg is just a symptom of a vastly larger crisis. The Democrat party is in the grip of an insane cabal. 

From Da Caller, Trump’s March Trial Date May Deprive Him ‘Of His Right To Due Process,’ Legal Experts Say, which is exactly the point. Herr Professor Jacobsen at LI, Florida Federal Court Throws Out 14th Amendment Challenge to Trump Appearing On Ballot. "Judge finds “no standing” to sue. Are the attempts to get judicial decisions keeping Trump off the ballot over? Of course not, but this is another sign that such attempts are likely to be unsuccessful. Hence the urging for state and local election officials to go rogue on their own, which of course then would be the subject of more lawsuits." At Am Think, Dan Brown thinks about Anti-Trump RINOS and the 14th Amendment and Clarice thinks about Law and Order: The Post-Constitutional Episode. From Breitbart, Ramaswamy: Trump’s Indictments Making U.S. a ‘Banana Republic. Atop Da Hill, Ramaswamy calls Trump charges related to Espionage Act ‘un-American.’ Shawn Fleetwood at Da Fed claims an EXCLUSIVE: Fani Willis Possesses Evidence Exonerating Georgia’s Alternate Electors. 

Specifically, Willis claimed Shafer and the other alternate electors “unlawfully falsely held themselves out” as Georgia’s “duly elected and qualified” presidential electors. She further insisted these electors — with Smith’s assistance — intentionally attempted to “mislead” figures such as then-Vice President Mike Pence and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger “into believing that they actually were such officers.”

However, among the documents Willis obtained during her years-long investigation of Republicans was a meeting transcript refuting her allegations.

A transcript of the Georgia Republican electors’ Dec. 14, 2020, meeting, obtained by The Federalist, explicitly shows the intent behind casting alternate electors was not to impersonate public officers, as Willis alleged, but to lawfully preserve Trump’s legal challenge to the state’s election results. At the meeting’s outset, Shafer specifically noted how he and his fellow Republicans were acting as “Republican nominees for Presidential Elector,” not as “duly elected and qualified” presidential electors.

“[President Trump] has filed a contest to the certified returns. That contest — is pending [and has] not been decided or even heard by any judge with the authority to hear it,” Shafer said. “And so in order to preserve his rights, it’s important that the Republican nominees for Presidential Elector meet here today and cast their votes.”

The Vigilant Fox 🦊@VigilantFox, "@JoeRogan and @BillMaher Get into a Heated Debate About Biden and Trump ROGAN: "He [Biden] is mentally compromised ... There's something wrong with Biden. Like, he makes up words. He stumbles through things. It seems like he doesn't know where he is half the time." At the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Salena Zito: Democrats beware: These Black voters are fed up, and looking for a political home. Insty, PELOSI ATTACKS TRUMP SUPPORTERS: They’re ‘Afraid’ Of ‘Diversity, Women, Minorities, LGBTQ.’ "Ben Carson, Kayleigh McEnany, and Richard Grenell could not be reached for comment." Neil Fox at Am Think, No Trump Card When the Deck is Stacked. Mike LaChance at LI reports Univision Host Co-Moderating Second GOP Debate Claimed Trump ‘Empowers White Supremacists’, “Calderón, who co-moderated the last Democrat presidential debate in 2020 between Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and President Joe Biden, has railed against Trump on the social media platform X, formerly Twitter, over the years.”

Nick Arama finds DeSantis Torpedoes Liberal Spin About Not Meeting With Biden - With Action. Politico whines DeSantis gets praise — and warnings — for his hurricane response, “I’m sure nobody wishes to have a hurricane so they can polish their credibility, but he did well.” 'Fuzzy Slippers' at LI, thinks the Media is More Concerned With DeSantis Not Meeting Biden Than With Hurricane Idalia Damage, "How can DeSantis “snub” Biden when there were no plans for them to meet in the first place?" Hat Hair's Jazz Shaw reports the Latest WSJ poll has no good news for anyone but Trump.  Never-Anybody-But-Trump sundance overjoyed Murdoch Sad – WSJ Post Debate Poll Shows Support for DeSantis Collapsing, Pre-Debate 24%, Post-Debate 13% and Iowa Republican Party Begins to Make Their Move Against MAGA – Reminder of The Core Battle. At Am Great Thad McCotter asks Are Swampy Political Consultants Mucking Up GOP Populism? "Furthermore, who are they?"

From HE, Vivek Ramaswamy could inherit Trump's MAGA movement. Katya Sedgwick at Am Con is concerned about Vivek's ideas on drug policy, On Drugs, Vivek, War is Love, "As a war on drugs voter, I want to hear how a presidential candidate would use executive power to curb the flow of drugs into this country, because tackling demand alone will never be sufficient." Hat Hair's  KT is amused that Larry Hogan still has visions of the presidency dancing in his head. Give it up, Larry.

At JTN, Guilty pleas secured in election-related cases in Georgia and Arizona "The pleas, submitted in the Northern District of Georgia and the District of Arizona, marks 14 successful charges from the Justice Department’s Election Threats Task Force."

Sarah Arnold at Town Hall notes Here's How the Media Handled Fetterman’s Stroke Vs. McConnell's 'Freeze'. Since when do you expect fairness from the media? Ace thinks Woke Editing Is Censorship, And Censorship Is An Attack On Free Speech, Which Is An Attack On ALL Of Our Freedoms. Across da pond at Da Sun, X-CUSE ME? Elon Musk’s dad Errol claps back at claims that Tesla CEO is ‘on drugs and has mental health issues’ in shock report. I want whatever drugs he's taking.

At SLAY, Non-Violent Jan 6 Defendant Nejourde Meacham Found Dead at 22. If it's fair to blame J6 protestors for Capital Cops suicide, it's fair to blame Merrick Garland's DOJ for this.

Roisin Murphy

From mrc-TV, There’s No Privilege Like Queer Privilege: Debunking the Myth of ‘Oppression.’ Fox, Australian gymnastics federation says athletes can choose locker rooms, uniforms based on gender identity.

Althouse criticizes the NYT for "Colleges and universities across the country are scrambling to find legal means of maintaining the levels of diversity they would like to see." "By clouding the question, the NYT burdens non-white applicants, who shouldn't have to feel they might be doing something wrong by discussing their race. But clouding the question is part of critiquing the Court, and that is, apparently, the priority." The SF Chronic chronicles How a kids playdate in Oakland became a flashpoint for racists

"Racists tried to vilify an Oakland elementary school for organizing a playdate specifically for Black, Latino and AAPI families." Segregation, now and forever! Mike LaChance at LI reports Caltech Drops Calculus, Chemistry, and Physics Course from Admissions Requirement “has long been one of the most selective schools in the country.” I'm sure you know why. Auguste Mayret at Da Fed, Democrats And Republicans Have Been Talking About School Reform For Years While Everything Has Gotten Worse. It's fair to blame Republicans for getting nothing done, but it's Democrat policies that have been wrecking education.
