Flotsam and Jetsam - Let's Tear Down This Walz!

Of course Kamala's Veep choice, Tim Walz, is the the main topic today. Stacy McCain thinks Republicans Dodged a Bullet Today — and Van Jones Tells the Truth About Why! Nicholas Fondacaro@NickFondacaro, "Van Jones admits that Kamala picking Walz was her "caving in to some of these darker parts in the party" in terms of appeasing "anti-Jewish bigots" that have "gotten marbled into this party."" Mary Chastain at LI,  Van Jones: Harris Appeases ‘Anti-Jewish’ Democrats by Picking Walz.  Mediaite, CNN’s Van Jones: There’s ‘Relief’ from Conservatives and ‘Some Disquiet in the Jewish Community’ About Shapiro Getting Passed Over for Walz. Matt Margolis at PJM cites Clay Travis: Kamala Harris ‘Kneecapped Her Campaign’ by Picking Tim Walz. Harold Hutchinson at Da Caller, ‘You Don’t Quite See That’: MSNBC Data Guru Delivers Brutal Reality Check To Dems After Walz Pick.

From the Free Bacon, Tear Down This Walz. "Minnesota governor Tim Walz has a shoddy record. So why did Kamala Harris pick him?" Athouse, "[Tim Walz] jumped to the top of Ms. Harris’s list in a matter of days, helped by cable news appearances in which he declared that Republicans were 'weird.'" ""The new, clear articulation of why voters should reject Mr. Trump caught on fast and turned the spotlight on the plain-spoken Midwesterner behind it.... I'm reading "Tim Walz Is Kamala Harris’s Choice for Vice President/The Minnesota governor, a former high school teacher and National Guard member, brings to the ticket Midwestern appeal and a plain-spoken way of taking on Donald Trump" (NYT). It's so embarrassingly lightweight! He's the guy who thought up "weird" and reminded Ezra Klein of a "dad." Phil Klein at NRO emits A  Sigh of Relief That It Isn’t Josh ShapiroRon Coleman@RonColeman, "Poor

@JoshShapiroPA. Stitched his foreskin back on for nothing." Matt Margolis claims WOW: Josh Shapiro Backed Out of the Kamala Veepstakes at the Last Minute. "This sounds like Shapiro realized that the risk of joining the Harris ticket was too high after the terrible jobs report on Friday and the subsequent stock market crash on Monday." More at Insty, WOW: Josh Shapiro Backed Out of the Kamala Veepstakes at the Last Minute. Nick Arama at RedState, Kamala Goes Babbling in Philly With Tim Walz, Opens Mouth and Inserts Foot. "Harris immediately went straight to the cackle and incoherence, repeating over and over again, "Good evening!" as Walz looked Dean-like and weird in the background, making weird faces and smacking his hands together."  

Walz admired the rioter who burned Minneapolis, his wife enjoyed the smell of burning city, and Kamala raised bail money for the rioters. Insty, THE PERFECT CHOICE FOR KAMALA: DC_Draino @DC_Draino, "What the hell Minnesota First Lady says she left the windows open during the 2020 BLM riots to smell the burning tires and soak in the moment Her daughter was also caught leaking National Guard plans to rioters so they could avoid arrest This family is sick." Twitchy, Nero May Have Fiddled but Gwen Walz Took Strong Whiffs While Her City Burned. Sundance at CTH, Kamala Harris Selects Minnesota Governor Tim “Let it Burn” Walz as Progressive VP Nominee Who Will Target White Midwesterners. At Hat Hair, Dave Strom notes Tim Walz and Kamala Harris Are the Pro-Rioter Ticket. John Hinderacker at Power Line, It’s Walz! Walz’s character defects are considerable, but let’s leave it at this: he was largely responsible for the George Floyd riots that devastated Minneapolis and other cities, because he dithered for days rather than calling out the National Guard. By his own admission, he held off out of sympathy for the rioters’ cause. We are still living with the consequences." Noah Rothman at NRO sees Tim Walz Exposes the Democratic Party’s Weakness for Lawlessness. Hat Hair's Capt. Ed comments "I'm still legit stunned that Harris chose Walz. This isn't just a base turnout strategy -- it's doubling down on radicalism." Ace, Kamala Harris Picks Pro-Child-Mutilation, Pro-BLM-Insurrection Former Teacher Tim Walz as Her Running Cuck. Matt Margolis, Kamala Harris Picks Radical Leftist for Running Mate. Mia Cathell at TownHall has a list of 7 Crazy Things Kamala's Running Mate Believes. At OTP, List Of Weird Walz Positions: Pro-Trans, Pro-Abortion, Pro-Weed, Anti-Police. From Da Caller, Harris VP Pick Greenlit Law Allowing State To Take Child Custody From Parents Who Oppose Sex-Change Surgeries. Althouse, Walz has the issue that tripped up Hillary Clinton in the 2008 primaries. "Here's the WaPo article, "Tim Walz is a bold, smart choice for Harris’s running mate/The Minnesota governor rightly argues that many progressive ideas are good and practical" by Perry Bacon Jr. Did Bacon have a "Josh Shapiro is a bold, smart choice for Harris’s running mate" draft ready to go?" Likely. Campus Reform informs us Kamala’s VP pick Gov. Walz supports free college for illegal immigrants. Capt. Ed, "American taxpayers can't afford groceries and amenities after three-plus years of Bidenomics and inflation spikes. Now Walz wants them to pay for college education for people who didn't come into the country legally? Isn't that ... weird?" Ed Driscoll at Insty has some interesting stuff on Walz's Covid response, JAMES LILEKS IN MARCH: "Four years ago today: . . . Also in March of 2020: Walz Implemented COVID Hotline To Snitch On Neighbors. . . . Why, it’s almost as: The Riots Are Part of the Plan. Review: ‘NextGen Marxism: What It Is and How to Combat It.’" Ace, Tim Walz Quit the National Guard and Abandoned His Unit When They Got the Call-Up to Deploy to Iraq in 2005. "Stolen valor, again," and   It Gets Worse and Worse for Walz. "As you know, "One man's socialism is just another man's neighborliness"! Walz was a big covid-monger -- he proudly announced a snitch-line allowing liberals to call the cops on their neighbors for violating stay-at-home orders. The Nazi Snitch Network reported a lot of people for... going to parks and beaches. Covid's natural hunting ground!!!"And he runs on his "military record"!" At the West Central Trib, The Truth About Tim Walz "We, retired Command Sergeants Major of the Minnesota National Guard, feel it is our duty and responsibility to bring forth the truth as we know it concerning his service record. So, we have put together a timeline of his service post 9/11. . . . " At OTP, ‘Coward … Traitor’ "Guardsman Rips Walz For Abandoning Troops Before Iraq Deployment." From the Free Bacon, VP Pick Tim Walz Pushed To Close Gitmo and House Terrorists in US.  

Capt. Ed shows off a New Trump Ad: 'Chief Weirdo Tim Walz'. They must have had that one in the can. 

At Fox, Trump camp says Harris-Walz 'dangerously liberal' ticket is 'every American's nightmare'. "Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz called Trump, Vance 'weird people' last week." Larry at Hat Hair has a video, New Trump Ads Decimate Kamala's VP, Democrat Plot to Eliminate Trump! Nick Arama, JD Vance Response to Walz Pick Shows Just How It Should Be Done. "To her credit, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz do make an interesting team," Vance said. "Tim Walz was the guy who let rioters burn down Minneapolis, Kamala Harris was the one who bailed the rioters out of jail.""  OTP, Speaker Johnson Calls Harris-Walz ‘Most Radical Left-Wing Ticket’. "“The most liberal ‘nominee’ to ever appear on a presidential ballot has now chosen a progressive running mate who has voiced support for socialism, supports sanctuary cities, and wants to give driver’s licenses to the millions of illegal aliens [she] has allowed into our country,” Johnson wrote in a statement." Matt Margolis, Ron DeSantis Absolutely Destroys Kamala's Running Mate, Tim Walz. "And you have a very vapid San Francisco Democrat, and then you've got an Ilhan Omar-style leftist, Tim Walz, who has the same policies as his fellow Minnesotan, Ilhan Omar. We do not need an America that represents the failed policies of San Francisco or the failed policies of Minneapolis. We do not need to see poop on the street and cities burning down. That is not a prescription for America to work its way back."

At Insty, Ed Driscoll, AXIOS DOES DAMAGE CONTROL FOR THE KAMALA CAMPAIGN: The stock market slump doesn’t have to mean a recession is near. "This might, though: Axios Lays Off 50 Staffers Amid Media Landscape Shift" and MEDIAITE MELTDOWN: "Jon Voight Ups the Ante on His Pro-Trump Videos By Claiming ‘the Left Is Trying to Take Away Your Children!’ But he’s not wrong: Harris VP Pick Greenlit Law Allowing State To Take Child Custody From Parents Who Oppose Sex-Change Surgeries," VodkaPundit, DONALD TRUMP: “Everything woke turns to s***”  and Insty, THIS NPR BIT ON THE “SEXISM” OF CALLING KAMALA BY HER FIRST NAME IS BEING ROASTED IN ITS OWN COMMENTS: "First one: “This is a non issue. Her online moniker is literally Kamala HQ. People will tell you how they prefer to be called. Listen to them. Presidents and other male elected officials throughout history have been referred to in myriad ways. Ike, Dubya, JFK, LBJ, Bernie. Someone decided to put this idea into the collective consciousness and it’s not a thing.”" Althouse, Why is Trump suddenly calling Kamala "Kamabla"? "I had to look it up and found "Donald Trump Launches Two New Nicknames for Kamala Harris in 24 Hours" (Newsweek)." Blah, blah, blah.

At the Wombats In The Mailbox: 08.06.24, EBL, Kamala Harris Dumps Josh Shapiro for Tim Walz, Kamala Harris: Stay Woke, and Kamala Harris’ Prosecutors Sent This Innocent Man to Prison, Twitchy, Forbes Digs #TamponTim Out Of His Red States Are Mostly “Cows & Rocks” Statement, and Here’s #TamponTim “Fixing” The Minnesota Flag, Louder With Crowder: “One man’s socialism”: Five things to know about Kamala Harris VP finalist #TamponTim (Updated), American Thinker: The ‘Crime’ Harris Was Toughest on was Journalism, BattleSwarm: Waltzes With Wokeness, Dana Loesch: Meet Tim Walz, Hollywood In Toto, Anchorman Star Pummeled for Comics for Kamala Fundraiser, The Kamala Harris Sketch You’d Never See Today, Legal Insurrection, ‘Traitor’: Guardsman Lashes Out at Walz Again Over Leaving Before Iraq Deployment, Harris-Walz Reactions: ‘He Let BLM Rioters’ Burn Minnesota and She ‘Encouraged Donations’ to Bail Out Those Arrested, and Van Jones: Harris Appeases ‘Anti-Jewish’ Democrats by Picking Walz, Victory Girls: Tim Walz Is The VEEP Who Let Minneapolis Burn and The Federalist: Cowardly Josh Shapiro Was Right About The Palestinians, The Same Media Who Call Lizzo ‘Healthy’ And Vance ‘Weird’ Are Calling Tim Walz ‘All-American, and Walz Let Rioters Burn Minneapolis While Harris Fundraised To Bail Them Out Of Jail.


Jazz Shaw hears Pelosi and Biden On The Rocks? "Nancy Pelosi and President Biden haven’t spoken since he dropped out of the 2024 presidential race, the former House speaker said in an interview Monday." Bonner Cohen at Da Fed, Here Are The ‘Green’ Projects Biden Is Dumping Billions Of Tax Dollars Into Before He Leaves Office. The players may change but the grift goes on.

OTP reports Secret Service Says It ‘Disposed’ Of Cocaine Found At White House After DNA Hit, "responding to a report about alleged infighting on its fate following a partial DNA match."

Stacy McCain asks if you are Mystified Why Trump Keeps Criticizing Georgia Republicans? Here’s the Answer "Those of us who can afford to be agnostic about the specifics of election fraud in 2020 may be tempted to cast aspersions on those who are not so fortunately situated: Why are they so obsessed with this topic? Well, if a prosecutor was trying to put you in prison, you might be “obsessed,” too. And it’s not just Trump." Liz Harrington@realLizUSA "A breakdown of the misinformation spread by Georgia officials at recent Election Board meetings: They claimed the 2020 hand count audit confirmed the results. Wrong. Fulton County’s mail-ins were nearly 6,700 votes short, and ultimately included 4,593 false votes for Joe Biden." At AlphaNews, Somali voter explains his switch to Trump: ‘Very conservative people’. "Salman Fiqy considers education "the major concern." In many cases, Somali families have led the pushback to left-wing education policies in the Twin Cities."


Jazz Shaw hears Google Finally Admits to Omitting Trump Assassination Shot from Search Feature, but gives them a partial pass on the oversight. "The code underlying the search engines is smart, but it's not "human smart." I believe that they had such a filter in place to cover all such eventualities. And after the flaw was discovered, they had to go in and manually revise it to allow for searches dealing with news of the events in Butler, Pennsylvania. I'm generally not shy about criticizing Google and Alphabet, but in this case I believe I'm going to give them a pass." ABC, Pakistani national charged with alleged plot to assassinate Donald Trump, other public officials: DOJ. Ace, Pakistani National With Ties to the Iranian Government Arrested for Attempting to Hire Hit Men to Assassinate President Trump, "The Secret Service sure picked the perfect time to take a couple of years off, eh?"

Kaelen Deese at WaEx reports Trump ruling on immunity in New York delayed until two days before sentencing. "The New York judge presiding over former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial has delayed a key ruling on presidential immunity until two days before Trump’s scheduled sentencing. Originally, the immunity decision was set for Sept. 6, with sentencing on Sept. 18. However, Judge Juan Merchan postponed the ruling to Sept. 16 after Trump’s lawyers requested he first decide on their motion for him to recuse himself from the case." Ben Whedon at JTN, Ex-Trump attorney Jenna Ellis strikes cooperation deal in Arizona electors case. "Ellis was among 18 defendants facing charges in connection with the effort. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced Monday that she had agreed to cooperate with the state in exchange for dropping the charges."
Ace, Biden's DOJ Is Using an 1870 Law to Enhance the Sentences for Abortion Protesters (While Doing Nothing About Pro-Abortion Terrorist Groups, Of Course). "They've been using a little-known law from 1870 to shellac abortion protesters with hugely long prison sentences." At the TN Star, KamaLawfare: Politicized FBI Executes Search Warrant on GOP Rep. Andy Ogles, Who Leads Impeachment of VP Harris. What are the chances? 
Ogles confirmed in a statement provided to The Star that the FBI executed a search warrant for his personal cell phone in an apparent investigation of his campaign filings. “It has been widely reported for months that my campaign made mistakes in our initial financial filings. We have worked diligently with attorneys and reporting experts to correct the errors and ensure compliance going forward,” stated Ogles, referencing amendments submitted over the course of this year to his earlier Federal Elections Commission (FEC) reports.

“Last Friday, the FBI took possession of my cell phone,” Ogles confirmed. “It is my understanding that they are investigating the same well-known facts surrounding these filings. I will of course fully cooperate with them, just as I have with the Federal Election Commission. I am confident all involved will conclude that the reporting discrepancies were based on honest mistakes, and nothing more.”
At Hat Hair, John Sexton sees Elon Musk Declares War on Global Alliance for Responsible Media and Jazz Shaw, Is Musk's AI Chatbot Biased? "Five secretaries of state on Monday urged Elon Musk to fix his social media platform X's artificial intelligence search assistant after it allegedly shared false information about the 2024 presidential election. The secretaries in a letter to Musk said that X's AI chatbot Grok misled users about ballot deadlines in numerous states shortly after President Joe Biden dropped his reelection bid against former President Donald Trump on July 21." It takes a tremendous amount of chutzpah to complain about Grok's AI's bias, in the face of Google, Facebook and all the rest. At Insty, PUNCH BACK TWICE AS HARD: Rumble@rumblevideo "BREAKING: Rumble has joined @X to sue a cartel of advertisers and ad agencies who conspired to block ad revenue from going to certain platforms and content creators. GARM was a conspiracy to perpetrate an advertiser boycott of Rumble and others, and that's illegal." Sundance, Court Rules Google is Monopoly Violating Sherman Antitrust Act.

Evie seems displeased, Massachusetts Passes Bill Erasing Mothers And Fathers From Birth Certificates, Legalizes Baby-Selling. "Bill H4750 has just passed the Senate in Massachusetts to change the state's legal definition of parenthood" and Imane Khelif Is Male According To Doctor's Testimony: Other Reports Confirm. Capt. Ed, "Of course they are biological males. Of course they should not be allowed in the ring against women in competition. And of course the woke cognoscenti don't give a rat's a** about safety and fairness for actual women as much as they want to pander to a radical minority of bullies."
