Flotsam and Jetsam - Almost Half of Dems Want Joe Gone

Ace, observes Leftwing Regime Propaganda Outlet Axios Reports That Donors Have Noticed That Biden Can't Speak Without Consulting Staff-Prepared Note-Cards, "Donors, you say? The people who sponsor The Regime's political advertising campaigns? You had my interest, but now you have my attention." VodkaPundit at PJM wants you to WATCH: Biden Says 'I Wanna Get This Quote Exactly Right' Before Hilariously Failing. Duane Patterson at Hat Hair VIP thinks Joe Biden Unifies the World...In Laughter. John Sexton at Hat Hair discovers 10 Things That Had Not Been Invented When Joe Biden Was Born. Whew, I just missed most of these. Seriously now, Dave Catron at Am Spec, notices Biden’s Cognitive Decline Continues Apace. "Biden has never been an honest man, but his inability to tell fact from fiction puts the nation at risk." With a straight face, or at least as straight as he can make it, at Politico, Gavin Newsom claims  Biden’s age is an asset. Ace, Biden: Republicans Like Speaker Johnson Are Worse Than the KKK, Also Biden: I'm Inviting Speaker Johnson to the White House to Persuade Him to Defend Ukraine's Border Instead of Our Own. "This is what an Alzheimer's Charm Offensive looks like. Karen Townsend from Hot Air: Biden says Republican lawmakers, meaning those who oppose giving money to Ukraine without defending our own border, are worse than Strom Thurmond and hardcore "racists.""

From NYPO, Nearly half of Dems want to boot Biden off ticket — with Michelle Obama his leading favorite replacement: poll. Pete Van Buren at Am Con, Michelle Obama: September Savior or ‘Suicide Mission’? "Just how desperate are the Democrats to get Biden off the ballot?" Am Spec editors, McKay to Tucker: It’s Obama’s World. “This is what the Obamas think of their own voters,”  Front Page, Victor Davis Hanson Video: ‘He’s The One Behind Everything’ "Barack Obama's third term."

The death of Georgia student Laken Riley at the hands of an illegal alien from Venezuela paroled into the country at the southern border has brought more attention to the border crises. Ace, Surprise! ICE Confirms That the Man Who Murdered the Georgia Nursing Student Is an Illegal Alien Who Was Detained at the Border in 2022 -- And then Immediately "Paroled" Into the Country By Biden. "Doing the murders Americans just won't do. A nursing student in Georgia went out for a morning run. She was murdered. Her head was bashed in." At the Wombats In The Mailbox: 02.26.24, Twitchy notes Jake Tapper Is Furious Republicans Are Pointing Out Biden’s Border Blunder. Jordan Boyd at Da Fed watches Corporate Media Cover For Biden’s Border Invasion By Pretending Laken Riley Murder Suspect Wasn’t An Illegal Crosser. Lincoln Brown at PJM sees the MSM Twists Itself Into Pretzels Over Illegal Immigrant Murder Case. Insty, REPUBLICANS POUNCE AND SEIZE! Nicholas Fondacaro @NickFondacaro "CNN's Jake Tapper whines "Republicans, obviously, seizing on this horrific tragedy at the University of Georgia." He admits the killer was an illegal but huffs: "They're seizing on this as an example of Biden's failure to protect the American people and secure the border." At Hat Hair, Larry,  The Media Will Do Anything to Twist a Narrative.  Harold Hutchinson at Da Caller hears Katie Porter Say ‘One Instance’ Of Murder ‘Shouldn’t Shape’ US Immigration Policy After Nursing Student Killed

Breitbart, Biden Admin Used Parole Loophole to Free Laken Riley Murder Suspect into U.S. The Free Bacon, How the Border Crisis Hit a Small Wisconsin Town "'You have to have blinders on to not see that there have been problems.'" Monica Showalter at Am Think thinks Venezuela's dictator has Joe Biden right where he wants him. PJM's Chris Queen notes Gov. Brian Kemp Takes on Biden Border Policy After College Student's Murder. At Da Caller, ‘Monster’: Trump Reacts To Murder Of Laken Riley, Reiterates Pledge To Set Up Largest Deportation In US History. Nick Arama at RedState hears Biden Is Going to the Border Again, but the Border Patrol Union Completely Levels Him in Response.  Bill Melugin@BillMelugin, "NEW: In statement to @FoxNews, the Border Patrol union slams Biden’s planned border visit, “Unfortunately, a visit by President Biden three years into his term and after repeatedly stating there is no crisis is too little, too late. Whether stating it himself or through WH Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre, Biden has said he’s done everything he can to secure the border. If that was the truth, and it wasn’t, there would be no point in visiting the border now. . . " Monica Showalter again, Joe Biden plans a trip to the border to upstage Trump -- and heads for the wrong end. Hat Hair's KT sees Trump, Biden Head for the Border on the Same Day. At Am Great Chris Roach on Biden’s Half-Hearted Border Control Pitch "Everyone can see that the left's attempts to secure the border will be temporary, half-hearted, and a mere tactical retreat from their goal of completing the erasure of the historical American nation." Twitchy, What Happened!? NYC Mayor Eric Adams Does a 'Stunning Turnaround' From Sanctuary City Awesomeness. John Davidson at Compact, How Christians Help Human Traffickers

I&I/TIPP Poll: If Corruption Charges Prove True, Nearly 2/3 Agree ‘Joe Must Go.’ My analysis of these numbers is that nearly all Democrats are OK with the corruption. TownHall's Matt Vespa thinks The DOJ's Indictment of Their Confidential Source Makes the Case for Special Counsel David Weiss' Removal. Dan Chaitin at Da Wire reports Judge Orders Indicted FBI Informant To Be Detained Until Trial. Nicole Silvero at Da Caller cites Jonathan Turley, Hunter Biden ‘Blew Away’ Potential Legal Defense In Axios Interview. At Stream, Mark Judge, (remember him?) says Stop Making Excuses for Hunter Biden’s Behavior. It Hurts Others Fighting Addiction.

From Da Caller, ‘Cancer On The American Dream’: John Kennedy Rips ‘Bidenomics,’ Compares Biden’s Polls To ‘Chlamydia.’ At Spec. World, Biden’s absurd student loan ‘solution’ "Not that anyone can blame him — it’s a political win-win for the White House." Capt. Ed at Hat Hair comments "The other absurdity to this is that it's any kind of "solution" at all. All this does is remove disincentives to the kind of debt loading that Academia now requires, and creates a moral hazard for continued bailouts. Congress should end the student-loan program altogether, given that it's now demonstrated that it can't survive without ongoing bailouts." Janet Levy at Am Think details Biden's 30 x 30 Land Grab. At Da Fed, Tristan Justice thinks Haaland Unilaterally Waived Ethics Concerns Over Chaco Canyon Decision

Breitbart cites Polls: Donald Trump Expands Lead over Joe Biden Nationally. Naver-Anybody-but-Trump Sundance at CTH claims Donald Trump Public Support Polling Far Exceeds Average Republican Candidate, but provides only 1 example.  At Am Spec Steve Kapustka says Trump’s Still Got It. "The main attraction of CPAC — and the conservative movement — put on a tour de force." From CJ, a South Carolina Snapshot "The primary confirmed Donald Trump’s tightening grip on the nomination, while adding to the picture of a conflicted, divided Republican Party." Capt. Ed, "The interesting part of this is how Trump seems to dominate in all of these categories. That speaks more to the brand loyalty Trump has built (and his status as a quasi-incumbent) than seeing him as a champion of a particular agenda." Tristan Justice at Da Fed, Young Voters Latest Bloc To Start Abandoning Democrat Party Ahead Of 2024 Elections. At Da Wire, Dallas Mayor Explains Why He Switched Party Affiliation From Democrat To Republican. “At the Democratic Party’s core, as I was saying, is a belief that how things turn out for you in this country are largely determined by things that are outside of your control, the race you’re born, the neighborhood you’re born in, it just kind of excuses away your failures and excuses away your successes to something that’s out of your control,” he later added. “If you’re successful and you’re white males, it’s because of course you were. And if you’re unsuccessful as an African American, it’s both the deck was stacked against you. And I just wasn’t a person who ever believed that. And that wasn’t how I was raised. And it’s not what I was taught. But it was the overarching political philosophy of my party.”  Am Think's Steve McCann, Trump’s Conundrum. Sister Toldja at RedState, reports Al Sharpton Hears About It After Telling Black Trump Supporters They Have 'No Shame. Race card refused. Jazz Shaw at Hat Hair VIP wonders Will the Democrats Let Donald Trump Take Office if he Wins? "At Townhall, our colleague Kurt Schlicter examines the question and appears to conclude that it's not a sure thing at all. The Democrats are simply too hell-bent on keeping the Bad Orange Man out of office and if they can figure out a way to make that happen, they likely won't hesitate." I&I, Democrats Plot An Insurrection To Stop ‘Insurrectionist’ Trump

Matt Taibbi at Racket on Nikki Haley's $100 Million Faceplant "Having been walloped in her own state after finishing second in an unopposed race, Nikki Haley should be a historic punchline. Instead, political shaming sank to new depths." Capt. Ed, "This is more of a media complaint than a Haley complaint, so be sure to read it all." Hat Hair cites Jim Geraghty at NRO, Could Sore Loser Laws Keep Haley Off No Labels Ticket? Capt. Ed again, "I doubt that it will become an issue in the first place, but it's a good question. Haley's not likely to end up on a No Labels ticket in the first place, not without destroying her political career afterward. Liz Cheney's more likely than Haley." John Podhoretz at Commentary, So Here's My Nikki Haley Theory. She wants to be able to say "I told you so" when Trump loses, to run in 2028. Nobody likes a woman who says that. Capt. Ed, "John's not the only one making this argument, and it's very possible that it's what Haley intends. But I don't think it will work, not this cycle if Trump can't run for whatever reason and not in 2028 either. Haley got pushed into a strangely moderate and interventionist policy position that is out of touch with the GOP electorate. If Trump can't be the nominee, the party would rally behind the more populist DeSantis before it would rally to Haley."

Ace, The Koch Network of Liberal Corporate Supremacists Ends Funding for Nikki Haley; "No Labels" Official Says They're Interested in Her as a Third Party Candidate, "No more money from the Koch suckers."

At the Wombats In The Mailbox: 02.26.24,  At Da Fed, Shawn Fleetwood cites a Court: Turning Election Day Into Election Week And Creating ‘Permanent’ Mail Voters Violates Delaware’s Constitution and Joy Pullman fears Indiana Republicans Move To Let Democrats Kick Any Republican AG Off The Ballot "The Indiana amendment would give an unelected, abortion-friendly state commission the power to determine whom Hoosiers can select as attorney general, taking that power away from voters." Da Wire, Ronna McDaniel To Leave As RNC Chair On March 8, finally. 

From Breitbart, Exclusive: Biden Admin Planted Operative Jeff DiSantis in Fani Willis’ Office to Target Trump, Sources Say.  “DiSantis is the one pulling the strings on this whole thing,” a second source said. “Everybody heard Fani testify. It’s no secret that she’s not smart. That is how she sounds and acts every day of the week.” Atlanta J-Con, Judge: Law partner must testify about Wade’s relationship with Willis. Capt. Ed, "Based on how hard Wade tried to keep Bradley from testifying, I'd guess that he'll tell a story that matches up better with Wade's cell phone records than the story told by Wade and Willis did. They have a rapidly closing window to recuse from the case and hope McAfee lets them off the hook for perjury, if it's still open at all. But the state bar will take an interest in that no matter what they do now." 

At the Wombats In The Mailbox: 02.26.24, At Da Fed Jordan Boyd is elated that In a Big Victory Against Lawfare, DC Court Of Appeals Smacks Down Jeff Clark Subpoena  "Trump-era Department of Justice official Jeffrey Clark won a big victory against Democrat lawfare on Monday when the D.C. Court of Appeals ruled he did not have to comply with a subpoena issued by the D.C. Bar’s Office of Disciplinary Counsel. The appeals court denied the D.C. Bar’s attempt to enforce its subpoena against Clark because it “infringes on Mr. Clark’s Fifth Amendment right not to be compelled to be a witness against himself.”  

Althouse,"Precisely how much cash Trump has is not known. He claimed to have '400-plus' million dollars during an April deposition..."

"... in the fraud case. In an August financial disclosure filed with the Office of Government Ethics, he listed hundreds of bank and investment accounts with a total value of between $252 million and $924 million.... Trump has to keep some cash on hand to operate his properties, such as his golf courses and hotels, as maintenance or investment needs require, according to banking experts. Freeing up hundreds of millions of dollars more would almost certainly require Trump to borrow against or sell some of his real estate.... A surety company might accept Trump’s properties as collateral, but that carries its own risks. Experts in issuing bonds may not be equipped to do their own investigations into Trump’s property values, and they may not know what his assets are really worth...."

From "Clock is ticking for Trump to post bonds worth half a billion dollars/Experts say a cash crunch in coming weeks could thrust the former president’s business into greater uncertainty than it has seen in decades" (WaPo). "they may not know what his assets are really worth" — Ironically, that is what the case itself was about.

Jacob Sullum at Reason has  4 Reasons Trump Says a Judge Should Dismiss Charges in the Classified Documents Case, "His lawyers assert presidential immunity and discretion, criticize an "unconstitutionally vague" statute, and question the special counsel's legal status." Vicky Taft at PJM asks What Do Donald Trump and This BLM Protester Have in Common? "On July 9, 2016, DeRay Mckesson organized a protest in front of the Baton Rouge Police Department in which police officers were attacked by rioters. One was hit by a hard object and "badly hurt." . . . Mckesson appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, where it has been in limbo for a while, arguing that the First Amendment "bars him from being held liable for the actions of others during the protest he organized." Though they are different kinds of cases, you can see how the DeRay's and Donald Trump's cases may intersect. Trump's case and the cases of January 6 rioters, protesters, and trespassers are before the Supreme Court. If DeRay is let off the hook for actually planning a riot due to First Amendment protections, could they do less for a president who didn't plan a riot, didn't encourage a riot and in fact did the opposite, wasn't even a participant, and wasn't present for a riot?"

Mario Juric @mjuric, "I'm done with @Google. I know many good individuals working there, but as a company they've irrevocably lost my trust. I'm "moving out". Here's why: I've been reading Google's Gemini damage control posts. I think they're simply not telling the truth. For one, their text-only product has the same (if not worse) issues. And second, if you know a bit about how these models are built, you know you don't get these "incorrect" answers through one-off innocent mistakes. . .

PJM's Stephen Kruiser, Pro-Hamas Lunatics Are Louder, Dumber, and More Unstable Than Ever. That's a high bar. Hat Hair's Jazz Shaw explains The Real Reason Military Recruitment is Failing “They’re hearing our American heroes being represented as evil racists … who were doing all these terrible things to disadvantaged people. And that really is shaping the views of America’s youth and making them have less respect for our institutions, have less respect for our history, and therefore making them less liable to want to put their lives potentially on the line to serve in our country’s military.”
