Flotsam and Jetsam - Biden Deposed in White House Coup, Kamala Called Out on Flip Flops

But first, some news on the PINO, Joe Biden. Jonathan Turley, Biden Abandons the Court . . . and His Last Inviolate Principle.  I don't think he has any principles except a lust for power and money. Capt. Ed at Hat Hair agrees, "Biden doesn't have principles. He has political interests. He's hardly alone in Washington on that point, of course, but he's been around for over 50 years and he's changed on all other issues, too. Especially on abortion." Cutie Pavlich at TownHall notices KJP Can't Explain Biden's Flip Flop Attack on the Supreme Court. Insty, NORMS: Guy Benson@guypbenson, "The “democracy” and “norms” party has now fully embraced fundamentally uprooting and remaking our Supreme Court — entirely because they aren’t getting their preferred outcomes in some major cases. That’s the only reason" Hat Hair's Jazz Shaw, Harris Endorses Biden's Unconstitutional SCOTUS 'Reforms.' 

Matt Vespa at TownHall, If This Story Is True, Then Joe Biden Was Deposed in a Coup. Althouse, "By Saturday, July 20, former President Barack Obama was deeply involved, and there was talk that he would place a call to Biden." "Hersh suggests that Harris continues to be under Obama's control, and "she had better perform." She's not the nominee yet. Hersh also writes that Kamala Harris "often showed little interest" in "the President’s Daily Brief, a highly classified summary of current intelligence that is prepared overnight by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and delivered by hand to the most vital offices in Washington, including the vice president’s." Hersh says that Harris even "asked the agency to stop delivering it to her."" Ace, Seymour Hersh: The Big Three -- Pelosi, Schumer, and Obama -- Told Biden That Kamala Harris Was Ready to Invoke the 25th Amendment If He Didn't Agree to the Coupists' Terms. They didn't care that he was senile, they cared he was losing. Insty, SO WHY ARE THEY TREATING HER LIKE SHE’S “ACTING PRESIDENT?”, Kamala Says Joe Is Fit for Office.  RNC Research @RNCResearch, "Biden calls himself a "former president." WHAT DID KAMALA KNOW AND WHEN DID SHE KNOW IT? Hat Hair, NEW: Anita Dunn Leaves WH After Getting Blindsided by Biden Withdrawal.

Don Surber asserts Media pushes to elect a coconut.  Matt Taibbi at Racket, Humans Conquer Everest of Cringe "New York magazine releases new coconut-themed "Kamalot" issue, dispels rumors it is kidding." From Spiked, The emptiness of Kamala Harris. Capt. Ed comments. "They can't justify a basement campaign in the longer term. They've been able to keep Harris mostly under wraps this past week -- and it hasn't helped." Matt Margolis at PJM issues a Democrat Civil War Watch: California Democrat Delegates Call Kamala 'Not Our Best Candidate'. 'Bonchie' at RedState, Kamala Harris Has 'Reset' the Race, What That Actually Means Isn't Good for Democrats. Ryan King at NYPo hears from Nate Silver: Trump remains the favorite in 2024 presidential race despite Harris’ rise.   Jen O'Connell at RedState, The Honeymoon Is Over: New Harvard/Harris Poll and DNC Leaks May Sink Kamala Harris' Ship. Ace says Polls Are For Strippers But Strippers Seem Genuinely Interested In Me, "A new Harris/Harvard X poll has Trump only up by three over Kamala, 48-45." Althouse, "Oh! Oh! I am a Democrat. Oh! So sad, so cold, so hungry! The world is dark! The world in the future, she's bleak!... The worst nightmare kind of scenario! It's a doom loop!" "Jon Stewart enacts the drama of the Democrat's recent emotional arc:" Manu Raju@mkraju, "Jon Tester, who hails from the red state of Montana and is perhaps the most vulnerable Senate Democrat, still won't endorse Vice President Kamala Harris. "You guys keep telling me that I have the toughest race in the country -- that's what I'm focused on," Tester told me. Asked again why he's not endorsing Harris, Tester said: "I'm focused on Montana and a defense bill that we are getting out on Thursday.""

At PJM Stephen Kruiser thinks In Theory, Someone Will Eventually Be Kamala Harris's Running Mate. Matt Margolis sees Kamala's Running Mate Selection Process Takes a Humiliating Turn. "Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-Mich.) took herself out of consideration, and two others have followed suit since dirt dug up on them made them a lot less likely to be picked. Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-Pa.) has been accused of covering up sexual harassment in his office, and then Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) has been exposed as the co-founder of a spy balloon company that was partially funded by China. This may not preclude Kamala from selecting either, but it likely hurts both of their chances." Capt. Ed, Kamala Veepstakes Shortlister: Socialism Is Just 'Neighborliness'! Tim Walz.  At TownHall,  Madeline Leesman notes a Democrat Senator From Battleground State Refuses to Say If He’d Be Harris’ Running Mate, and 'Becca Downs, Does This Announcement Mean We Know Who Will be Kamala Harris' Running Mate? Josh Shapiro (D-PA). 

Insty, WILL THE REAL KAMALA HARRIS PLEASE STAND UP? Alex Thompson@AlexThomp, "Harris no longer supports Medicare for All, per @reidepstein Also says she won’t ban fracking, wants to increase funding for the border, and doesn’t want to require ppl to sell their assault weapons back to the govt. https://nytimes.com/2024/07/29/us/." Da Caller, Team Harris Swears Kamala Won’t Kill Fracking, But Will Anyone Believe Them? Chaz Cooke at NRO, Why I Have Changed All My Policies, by Kamala Harris. Capt. Ed, This one made me laugh out loud. It's almost Babylon Bee-worthy, and NYT: Dastardly Republicans Are 'Weaponizing' Kamala's 2020 Positions. At least it wasn't pouncing or seizing. They at least cracked a thesaurus. Ace, NYT: Sneaky Republican Racists Have an Underhanded Line of Attack on Kamala Harris -- Pointing Out Her Unpopular Leftwing Positions on Important Issues. The Divine Ms. Devine at NYPo, Kamala Harris must still hold Biden’s border, inflation baggage — even as Dems’ myth-making machine fires on all cylinders. Da Caller, New Poll Sinks Dems’ Hopes That Voters Will Forget All About Kamala Harris’ Record On Immigration. In her race to embrace her (distant) African heritage, Kamala ditches her Indian roots, Insty, THOSE WERE THE DAYS: "I was looking through some online archives available through my university’s library, and noticed that there was a time in her political career that Kamala Harris talked a lot more about her Indian heritage." There's not enough victimhood in being Indian. 

But of course, they do have a new issue to run on. Republicans are weird! Althouse, "These guys are just weird. That's where they are.... The fascist depend on fear. The fascists depend on us going back, but we're not afraid of weird people. No, we we're a little bit creeped out, but we're not afraid." "
Said Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, in audio played in the new episode of the NYT "Daily" podcast, "The V.P.’s Search for a V.P." The podcast host observes that the message — "Republicans are... just too weird for America" — "does seem like it's sticking a little bit." Is it "sticking" or is it just the word that's getting said by people who say the same word at the same time. I'm thinking of those people who all used the word "selfless" when Biden accepted getting ousted." Also, "If I were advising the candidates, I’d tell them to double down on weirdness." "Says David Brooks, on September 8, 2008." Trump War Room @TrumpWarRoom, "Here's Kamala bragging about her work to ensure "every transgender inmate in the prison system" has access to taxpayer-funded gender reassignment surgeries."  Da Caller, Kamala Harris Can’t Hide Record That Earned Her ‘Most Liberal’ Senator Label. At Insty, BOLD STRATEGY, COTTON, LET’S SEE IF IT PAYS OFF FOR THEM: Stephen Miller@StephenM, "The Harris campaign has decided they want to fight a culture war this summer with the GOP. Their cultural priorities are: —Sex changes for minors —Drag shows for kids —Pornography in schools —Men in women’s sports —Men in girls’ restrooms and locker rooms —race-based everything". Twitchy, NICE Man Bun: Here Are the Best (Worst) Takeaways From EMBARRASSING White Dudes for Kamala Call (Watch).

Fox, 'Voice of leadership': Harris has repeatedly praised her pastor who blamed America for 9/11. "'He has been on this journey with me every step of the way,' Harris said about Rev Amos Brown."

On the Bidenomics watch, Insty, SOMETHING THAT CAN’T GO ON FOREVER, WON’T: Wall Street Silver@WallStreetSilv, "Since January 2020 the debt has ballooned by 50% from $23 trillion to $35 trillion. Interest on the debt is also skyrocketed with higher rates, averaging around 5% lately. Interest on the debt is on pace for $1.5 trillion next year, about 30% of all govt revenue collected."

WSJ, America’s New Political War Pits Young Men Against Young Women, "A majority of men under 30 support former President Trump and Republican control of Congress, a sharp reversal from the 2020 race; young women strongly favor Democrats." Capt. Ed, "I'm less concerned about the outcome of the election than I am about the prospects for successful family creation in the next decade or so. The hyper-politicization we see now will create all sorts of unhappy pairings -- and it might take another generation after this to resolve the split." If women could just admit men are right.

This is not consistent with Gab's understanding of the shooter's motives based on an Emergency Disclosure Request ("EDR") we received from the FBI last week for the Gab account "EpicMicrowave" which, based on the content of that EDR, the FBI appeared to think belonged to Thomas Crooks. . . ." NewsMax, Gab CEO: Trump Shooter's Account Was 'Pro-Biden' Robby Starbuck @robbystarbuck, "Marsha Blackburn forced the FBI to admit that the GAB account reportedly belonging to Thomas Crooks, espoused a leftist, pro-Biden/Harris ideology.

The counter sniper also said the agency "SHOULD expect another assassination attempt" before November and complained that he is no longer proud to be a USSS counter sniper after leadership failed the officers at the Trump rally in Butler on 7/13. "This agency NEEDS to change," the sniper wrote in the email. "If not now, WHEN? "The NEXT assassination in 30 days?. . . " Ace, Secret Service Agent Email: I Will Not Be Silent Until The Top Five "Leaders" Responsible for This Catastrophe Have Resigned, Which They Already Should Have Done.

At Insty Dave Bernstein sees A JUDGE FROM AN ERA LONG GONE: "Federal judge Richard Stearns, a Clinton appointee, has dismissed a discrimination lawsuit filed by Jewish students against MIT. Boston judges have a history of protecting the local elite institutions (MIT and Harvard) from lawsuits, so this isn’t a great surprise, though shows extremely dubious legal judgment to dismiss a case like this on a motion to dismiss before there has been any discovery. This is especially true given that Stearns acknowledges that MIT Jewish students have faced serious discrimination."
