Jeffrey Crouch, an assistant professor of American politics at American University and author of the book "The Presidential Pardon Power." "The Supreme Court has recognized the president’s flexibility in this area.", "He does not need to wait until someone is charged, tried or convicted,", but "The clemency power was intended to give presidents the ability to dispense mercy and defuse societal tensions, such as a war or rebellion," Crouch told ABC News. "Granting pardons under the current circumstances in the manner being discussed could weaponize clemency. A constitutional power designed to dispense official forgiveness will have evolved into a catch-all provision for shielding political cronies or critics. This is far from what the framers of the constitution had in mind for presidential pardons."

Awkward: Mourners At Jimmy Carter Funeral Place Flowers On Biden

Quote:
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The solemnity of former President Jimmy Carter's funeral was slightly marred earlier this morning when a few confused mourners accidentally placed flowers on Biden.

According to eyewitnesses, the mistaken mourners seem to have confused the dead former president with the unmoving, unblinking, statuesque Biden.

"There had been a line going up at the Cathedral to put flowers on Jimmy," said Vivian Glecker, a White House staffer. "And a few of the people in line accidentally stopped to start laying flowers on Biden instead. One of them even tried to close his eyes. It got really awkward after they split up into two lines, with one going to each president to pay their respects. It was touching, I guess, though it took Secret Service kind of a while to sort things out."

Reports from the Washington Cathedral state that the misunderstanding was eventually corrected, though Jill Biden had to be rescued from a partial avalanche of roses that had spilled over from the pile mounting atop Biden.

"It was fitting, in a way, you know?" asked Keith Simmons, a member of the general public who attended the funeral. "Carter always was the sort of guy who could name fifty parts of a flower's anatomy, but never got flowers."

At publishing time, Biden had gotten up to deliver some remarks and accidentally eulogized himself instead of Carter.

the research is easy for those claiming lack of knowledge.
It's adorable that you think the Crusades only targeted "liberating" Jerusalem from the Muslims

They were pretty active elsewhere as well.
In Germany they were Pre-Nazis.


I guess for Jews it's a tossup as to which religion that offered them Convert or Death as a multiple choice test was worse...

Regarding your typical posts:

big·ot·ry
/ˈbiɡətrē/
noun
obstinate or unreasonable attachment to a belief, opinion, or faction, in particular prejudice against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.

To be clear, when you regularly make insulting statements about people because they are part of a group it is bigoted. This is different than saying you disagree, or that people who have a different opinion are stupid. MJ does the same thing. Have a look.

Not that this is an insult to you. You both enjoy and embrace your bigotry.

I never thought about it until you typed out the definition of bigotry, but based on that definition I think the new fake liberals/progressives have to be the most bigoted people in this country.

Don't get me wrong, both cults share similarities but progressives win on bigotry. On the macro, progressives hate Americans in general. Specifically, they hate White Anglo-Saxon Protestants. So da MAGA cult hates them back and then they're the ones that get called bigots. Think

^True Robert.

Mr. Dictionary (Brewha) gets confused with words like "bigotry" He thinks I'm bigoted because I'm against the political left.

If I were bigoted, I would base my decisions based on incomplete information, stereotypes, feelings, and such.
On the contrary, my bias is not unreasonable, it is based on due examination, with the only conclusion being the political left is the most destructive movement in history. Could those lefties prove me wrong? No, they can't without showing their bigotry.

Conservatives and people on the Right are a mixed bag. Some of our best and some of our worst.

Saying a whole group is bad, stupid, whatever, is bigotry - to push an agenda. Attaching an opinion, believe, or action of a group fair and good discourse.

You can always detect stupid, bigoted shit when someone is attaching the whole group.





I’m sure that Jews are mixed group. But Germany in 1938 was bigotry. Get it?

Weaponizing Law Enforcement Against Americans



"Based on the evidence described in these reports, there are two inescapable conclusions:

(1) regardless of the administration in office, the Deep State in DHS, DoD, DOJ, IRS, the Intelligence Community, and other agencies have arrogated to themselves unconstitutional and unlawful powers to infringe individual liberties, expand rules, and use force to suppress conservatives’ goals, religion, and free speech; and

(2) the Biden-Harris Administration, Pelosi, and leading Democrats endorsed, supported, facilitated, and led the expansion of these efforts.

These reports are products of extensive investigations and include copious evidence. Though the Administration Subcommittee’s report can be faulted for its angry tone, a vainglorious pandering to its chairman, Barry Loudermilk, and sometimes hyperbolic conclusions, it provides compelling evidence of wrongdoing. Broader in scope and more thoroughly researched, the Justice Subcommittee’s report is the product of a detailed inquiry into a broad betrayal of trust. Justice Subcommittee Chairman Jim Jordan is to be commended for uncovering problems and taking steps that have already ameliorated some of these practices.

The findings in these reports show why the Trump Administration must clean house. That is why Trump has nominated sometimes controversial individuals such as Tulsi Gabbard, Kash Patel, Pete Hegseth, Pam Bondi, John Ratcliffe, Russell Vought, and Rick Grenell. It explains Trump’s impulsive, properly withdrawn nomination of Matt Gaetz and the creation of DOGE as an advisor outside of government. It is why so many of Trump’s appointees have expressed concern about the agencies they have been selected to lead.

Above all, the administration must not redirect targeting—it must eradicate these stains on the American soul."

Biden Issues Executive Order For Building AI Data Centers On Federal Land



President Joe Biden issued an executive order on Tuesday to accelerate the construction of large-scale data centers and clean power infrastructure for artificial intelligence (AI) on federal sites.

Biden, whose presidency will end when President-elect Donald Trump takes office on Jan. 20, said the order will direct the Defense Department (DOD) and Energy Department (DOE) to lease federal sites to the private sector for building AI infrastructure.

The agencies will select sites that are equipped with high-capacity transmission infrastructure and have minimal adverse effects on communities, the natural environment, and commercial resources.

The outgoing president said he aims to speed up the construction of advanced AI infrastructure in the United States “in a way that enhances economic competitiveness, national security, AI safety, and clean energy.”

“Cutting-edge AI will have profound implications for national security and enormous potential to improve Americans’ lives if harnessed responsibly, from helping cure disease to keeping communities safe by mitigating the effects of climate change,” Biden said in a statement. “However, we cannot take our lead for granted. We will not let America be out-built when it comes to the technology that will define the future, nor should we sacrifice critical environmental standards and our shared efforts to protect clean air and clean water.”

The White House stated that federal agencies will review proposals from companies seeking to build and operate large-scale AI infrastructure before granting leases for the selected sites.

The chosen developers will then be required to procure new clean energy generation resources that meet the electricity and capacity needs of their data centers, according to a White House fact sheet.

The Interior Department will also help to identify lands under its management that can be used for building clean energy facilities to power data centers on DOE and DOD sites, while also accelerating the permitting processes for geothermal projects, which could support future AI operations, the White House said.

“Agencies will prioritize and dedicate staff toward permitting this infrastructure in a timely manner, and DOD will immediately undertake environmental analyses that will improve the speed and accuracy of future site-specific reviews,” it stated.

To prevent an increase in electricity bills for consumers, the White House stated that developers will bear the full cost of building, operating, and maintaining AI data centers and power facilities. They are also required to provide “prevailing wages” to workers.

The order also requires developers to meet lab-security requirements and assess the national security implications of AI models developed on federal sites, including their safety risks and potential to advance national security objectives, the White House stated.

The Biden administration said the construction of such data centers will help prevent “adversaries from accessing powerful systems to the detriment” of the U.S. military and national security and reduce America’s reliance on other countries for access to powerful AI tools.

A senior administration official told reporters on Monday that Biden issued the order to expedite the rate at which America builds “the world’s largest, most powerful AI infrastructure” powered by clean energy. The order also seeks to preserve America’s leadership in AI and counter national security risks posed by adversaries.

“So in the coming years, we’ll face extraordinary potential national security risks, including the possibility of strategic surprise if adversaries such as the PRC [People’s Republic of China] develop and acquire these more powerful AI systems before we do,” the official stated.

Another senior official stated that China has made “substantial investments” in AI and is rapidly advancing its AI infrastructure development.

This came a day after the Biden administration proposed new rules on the exports of advanced computer chips used in AI development, which it said was aimed at ensuring that “the world’s AI runs on American rails.”

The White House said the restrictions will not apply to 18 allies and partners of the United States, including the United Kingdom. Exports to China and Russia are already subject to restrictions.

Biden Claims Credit for Ceasefire, but Trump’s Special Envoy Reportedly Led Talks



President Joe Biden claimed credit for the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, but President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, reportedly headed up key negotiations last week.

After a press conference Wednesday, in which Biden praised his national security officials who failed for months to reach a deal, a reporter asked whether he or Trump deserved credit for reaching an agreement.

“Is that a joke?” Biden responded, walking away from reporters.


During the press conference, Biden credited “many peacemakers” with bringing about the deal, including outgoing Secretary of State Antony Blinken, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, and Vice President Kamala Harris for reaching the agreement.

Only after Biden lauded his administration, following 15 months of failures to land a deal, did he note that his team had been recently coordinating with the incoming Trump administration.

“I’d also note this deal was developed and negotiated under my administration, but its terms will be implemented for the most part by the next administration. In these past few days, we’ve been speaking as one team,” he said.

In fact, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported in an article titled “Analysis | Trump’s Mideast Envoy Forced Netanyahu to Accept a Gaza Plan He Repeatedly Rejected” that Biden’s administration enabled Witkoff, who comes from the private sector as a real estate investor, to take the lead last week. Haaretz Political Correspondent Chaim Levinson reported on Monday:

A week before Trump’s inauguration, Jerusalem already sees a change in the rules of the game that has broken the deadlock in the hostage negotiations. Unusually, the outgoing Biden administration has let Witkoff lead the process, on the grounds that any obligations the United States undertakes will be incumbent on Trump, not on Biden.

Witkoff is a Jewish real estate investor and developer who is close to Trump. He doesn’t have the background of the kind of people who usually fill diplomatic roles. Witkoff isn’t a diplomat. He doesn’t talk like a diplomat, he has no interest in diplomatic manners and diplomatic protocols,” says a senior Israeli diplomat who spoke on condition of anonymity. “He’s a businessman who wants to reach a deal quickly and charges ahead unusually aggressively.”

Pulitzer Prize-winning independent journalist Glenn Greenwald, the host of System Update, underscored the glaring “coincidence” in the timing of the deal and that Israeli media are crediting Trump.

“Israeli media reports Israel accepted a peace deal because of Trump. The Israeli Right says blames Trump for it. Even anti-Trump outlets in the US (like the NYT) say Trump was a key factor,” Greenwald wrote in a post on X.

“Only Biden insists he got it done: a huge coincidence it never happened until Trump won,” he added.


Biden noted Wednesday that the deal is the one he put forth in May, which aligns with Haaretz’s reporting that Witkoff “forced Israel to accept a plan that [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu had repeatedly rejected over the past half year.”

Trump announced the deal in a Truth Social post ahead of Biden’s press conference.

“We have a deal for the hostages in the Middle East. They will be released shortly. Thank you!” he wrote.

In a second post, he added that the “epic ceasefire agreement could have only happened as a result of our Historic Victory in November, as it signaled to the entire World that my Administration would seek Peace and negotiate deals to ensure the safety of all Americans and our Allies.”

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/01/15/biden-claims-credit-ceasefire-trumps-envoy-reportedly-led-talks/


Pedo Joe didn't do a damned thing in these negotiations. He never mentioned a single name. All he did was fund the Iranian "junk yard dogs" they would employ against our strongest ally in the Middle East all while slow walking and denying military aid so they could once and for all put down the rabid enemy at their gates.

This was ALL because Trump is coming back to DC and nothing more. The adults are coming back in charge and it's going to be great to watch Lefty make mountains out of molehills, screech about "INSURRECTION" all while forgetting the tyranny of the plandemic and all the other DEI insanity rammed down the World's throat.

Good Bye Pedo Joe. Good riddance. You are the worst American President of all time and History will not be kind to you.

WATCH: Joe Biden Delivers Farewell Address to the Nation, Lectures Americans, Blames LA Wildfires on Climate Change… and More!

by Cristina Laila Jan. 15, 2025 8:40 pm

Quote:
Joe Biden, the worst president in US history delivered a 17-minute farewell address to the nation from the Oval Office Wednesday evening.

“In the past four years, our democracy has held strong and every day, I’ve kept my commitment to be president for all Americans for one of the toughest periods in our nation’s history,” Biden said. “I’ve had a great partner, Vice President, Kamala Harris.”

Joe Biden lashed out at Trump, Elon Musk, Ramaswamy and others in Trump’s orbit and

“Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead,” he said.


Like a true dictator, Joe Biden called for free speech crackdowns, lashed out at Big Tech for ‘giving up on fact-checking,’ and said social media companies should be held accountable.

“Americans are being buried under an avalanche of misinformation and disinformation, enabling the abuse of power. The free press is crumbling. Editors are disappearing. Social media is giving up on fact checking. The truth is smothered by lies, told for power and for profit. We must hold the social platforms accountable to protect our children, our families, and our very democracy from the abuse of power.”

In Farewell Address, Biden Brags Of Unity, Warns Of "Oligarchs", "Abuse Of Power", & "Tech-Industrial Complex"



Five days before leaving office, President Joe Biden delivered a live primetime farewell address to the nation, highlighting his accomplishments and warning of emerging threats, including oligarchs and a “tech-industrial complex.”

His speech, delivered from the Oval Office on Wednesday evening, not only marked the end of his presidency but also the conclusion of his five-decade political career.

“After 50 years of public service, I give you my word, I still believe in the idea for which this nation stands, a nation where the strengths of our institutions and the character of our people matter and must endure,” Biden said before ending his speech.

“Now, it’s your turn to stand guard.”

As Emel Akan reports for The Epoch Times, Biden’s political career, which spanned decades and included serving as a senator from Delaware and as vice president under President Barack Obama, will come to an end on Jan. 20 when he hands the reins to Republican President-elect Donald Trump.

“In the past four years, our democracy has held strong, and every day, I’ve kept my commitment to be president for all Americans through one of the toughest periods in our nation’s history,” Biden said.

Ahead of Biden’s farewell speech, the White House released a fact sheet outlining his administration’s record, highlighting a long list of actions, starting with the efforts to combat the pandemic.

“Millions of Americans now have the dignity of work. Millions of entrepreneurs and companies creating new businesses and industries, hiring American workers, using American products,” Biden said.

“Together, we’ve launched a new era of American possibilities.”

Biden is leaving office with his approval rating at the lowest point of his term, according to a recent CNN poll. Only 36 percent of U.S. adults say they approve of how Biden handled the presidency, with particularly low marks on issues like immigration, foreign affairs, and the economy.

Biden stated that although a positive impact of his policies and spending priorities may not be felt right away, he believes they will produce lasting benefits in the years ahead.

“You know, it will take time to feel the full impact of all we’ve done together but the seeds are planted. And they‘ll grow and they’ll bloom for decades to come,” he said.

In his nearly 17-minute speech, Biden did not mention his successor by name but wished success to the incoming administration.

“I’m so proud of how much we’ve accomplished together for the American people. And I wish the incoming administration success because I want America to succeed,” Biden said.

Biden Issues Warning

Presidential farewell addresses are a longstanding tradition in American politics, offering presidents a final chance to reflect on their time in office, list their accomplishments, and provide parting advice to the nation.

As Ronald Reagan famously remarked in his 1989 farewell address, “There is a great tradition of warnings in Presidential farewells.” This tradition is a key feature of farewell addresses, where outgoing leaders look to the future and warn of potential dangers facing the nation.

Biden’s farewell address followed the same pattern.

“I want to warn the country of some things that give me great concern,” Biden said.

“Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power, and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead.”

Biden referred to Dwight Eisenhower’s iconic 1961 farewell address where he warned the nation about the dangers of the “military-industrial complex.”

“The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist,” Eisenhower said during his speech.

“Six decades later, I’m equally concerned about the potential rise of a tech-industrial complex that could pose real dangers for our country,” Biden said.

“Americans are being buried under an avalanche of misinformation and disinformation, enabling the abuse of power. The free press is crumbling. Errors are disappearing. Social media is giving up on fact-checking.”

Biden recently expressed disapproval of Meta’s decision to do away with its current social media fact-checking program, calling it “really shameful.”

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg justified the decision last week in a video statement by saying that fact-checking has become “too politically biased,” resulting in censorship and a loss of trust.

He also warned of dangers of AI, saying that it’s crucial for people to govern this new technology.

“As the land of liberty, America, not China, must lead the world in the development of AI,” Biden said.

Biden also hinted in his speech at charges his Department of Justice made against Trump.

“We need to amend the Constitution to make clear that no president, no president, is immune from crimes that he or she commits while in office,” Biden said.

This marked the president’s fifth and final address from the Oval Office since taking office.

The president last spoke from behind the Resolute Desk on July 24, when he addressed the nation to explain his decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race.

Farewell addresses are a key opportunity for presidents to shape the narrative of their time in office, according to Tom McArdle, former White House speechwriter for President George W. Bush.

“Presidents use farewell addresses primarily to try to write history before the historians do, and they rarely succeed,” he told The Epoch Times.

Their efforts often fail because the true measure of a presidency is shaped more by actions than words, McArdle said.

It’s inevitably Biden’s performance that will define his legacy, he said.

The president’s farewell speech comes on the heels of a breakthrough in the Middle East, as Israel and Hamas reached a deal for a hostage and prisoner swap, along with a six-week ceasefire, set to take effect on Jan. 19.

Before he began his farewell speech, Biden took credit for his work in brokering the deal in the Middle East.

“After eight months of non-stop negotiation by my administration, a cease-fire and hostage deal has been reached by Israel and Hamas,” Biden said.

“This plan was developed and negotiated by my team, and it will be largely implemented by the incoming administration.”

EVERYTHING he spoke about he's the tip of the spear. He's a tyrant. Buh Bye Pedo Joe...Dr. Jill hope you have the Depends and wipes ready. Hunter...we'll be seeing more of you. How that's possible with your laptop pics and pardons I don't know but you won't be able to stay out of trouble. It just finds a guy with the Biden gene.

The 36% must post here because I don't see them on the street. Everyone I know says he's a decrepit human and worse leader. He doesn't understand words like "oligarchy", if he did he wouldn't have put a medal around Soros' neck!

He's such a POS and he smells like it too.

Biden’s Hypocrisy on ‘Tech Oligarchy’ Exposed by Microsoft’s Extraordinary Access to White House



President Biden’s recent warning about the dangers of a “tech oligarchy” stands in stark contrast to his administration’s unprecedented access granted to Microsoft, whose executives made more than 200 White House visits during his term. The extensive access, particularly to national security officials, raises questions about the administration’s relationship with big tech amid several cybersecurity crises and controversial deals.

In his farewell address to the nation, President Joe Biden warned of the dangers posed by a “tech oligarchy” and a “tech industrial complex” dominating the American economy and political landscape, a clear shot across the bow of Trump supporters like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. However, a deeper look into his administration’s extraordinary relationship with Microsoft raises serious questions about the credibility of his dire warning.

During his administration, Microsoft executives visited the White House more than 200 times, involving 82 different executives, according to visitor logs analyzed by the Foundation for Freedom Online. This level of access equals or even surpasses the influence wielded by Google during the Obama years, when the administration was criticized for being too cozy with Big Tech. The revelations suggest a troubling level of influence wielded by tech companies over Democrat administrations – Google during the Obama years and now Microsoft, particularly over critical cybersecurity policies during the Biden years.

The hundreds of meetings with White House officials not only highlight Microsoft’s proximity to the Biden administration but also reveal how the company strategically targeted the most sensitive areas of government. Roughly one-third of these meetings involved officials from the National Security Council (NSC), with Microsoft executives engaging directly with top national security figures such as Jake Sullivan and Jon Finer.

As Wired reported this week, Sullivan and the Biden White House served as Microsoft’s lackeys in brokering a $1.5 billion deal in which the company acquired a minority stake in G42, an Abu Dhabi-based AI company founded by Tahnoun bin Zayed al Nahyan, the United Arab Emirates’ intelligence chief. The deal has raised fears among the U.S. intelligence community given G42’s close ties with China.

On May 12, 2021, Microsoft President Brad Smith met with senior NSC advisors on the same day Biden signed an executive order addressing the SolarWinds cyberattack — a breach that exposed vulnerabilities in Microsoft’s systems and compromised federal agencies. Microsoft’s lobbying efforts during the SolarWinds fallout were designed to shield the company from scrutiny while promoting its security products to federal agencies. These products generated billions in revenue from government contracts, with national security-related agencies contributing over $12 billion to Microsoft since 2018.

The timing of several key White House meetings suggests that Microsoft leveraged the crises stemming from SolarWinds and the Exchange Server breach to expand its federal footprint. For instance, on May 24, 2021 — just days after Biden’s executive order on SolarWinds — Microsoft executives Jason Zander and David Pritchard met with Deputy National Security Advisor Anne Neuberger. Zander, responsible for Microsoft’s federal engagements, met with White House officials on at least six occasions during Biden’s term in office.

Critics argue that Microsoft’s efforts were less about resolving vulnerabilities in its products and more about marketing its cybersecurity services to government clients. A scathing 2021 report by CyberReason accused Microsoft of prioritizing profit over security, leaving customers — including the federal government — exposed to repeated cyberattacks.

President Biden’s parting words about a tech oligarchy dominating the U.S. economy are at odds with his administration’s favoritism toward Microsoft. By granting the company unparalleled access to top officials, Biden’s White House appears to have embraced the very dynamics he now decries.

Forbes reports that just four days before the end of his presidency, Joe Biden issued an executive order titled “Strengthening and Promoting Innovation in the Nation’s Cybersecurity” on January 16, 2025. Forbes notes:

Moreover, the executive order’s emphasis on established frameworks like NIST guidelines and FedRAMP certifications raises concerns about potential vendor favoritism. While these programs are well-regarded, they inherently benefit vendors who are already certified, sidelining newer or smaller players who lack the resources to navigate lengthy certification processes. This could unintentionally stifle competition in the cybersecurity space.

President-elect Donald Trump has positioned himself as a critic of Big Tech monopolies. In his previous administration, Trump’s Department of Justice launched major antitrust lawsuits against Google and Facebook, signaling a willingness to confront entrenched corporate power. Insiders suggest that top antitrust picks like Pam Bondi at the Department of Justice and Andrew Ferguson at the FTC will be much tougher on “tech oligarchies” than either the Biden or Obama Administrations.

In reality, Biden’s dire warning of a “tech industrial complex” is something that occurred under his watch.

Joe Biden: An Assessment



"Power is the capacity to compel loyalty and obedience, under conditions of duress. Authority is the capacity to inspire loyalty and obedience, under conditions where free will obtains"

- Aimee Terese

You’re aware, I’m sure, that a lot of people thought “Joe Biden” was being play-acted in the White House over his four years there by a series of look-alike actors. You saw those news items comparing “JB’s” earlobes to the old gaffer who showed up at the podium on a given day. Hmmmmmm. . . . I was not persuaded by any of that. “Joe Biden” has simply been impersonating himself — play-acting the role of “president.” The mystery is how he got there.

You can expect very shortly, probably only a matter of weeks, to see a raft of news stories, soon-to-be big-money books, revealing the utter sustained chaos that churned behind the pathetic, half-animated figure pretending to be “chief executive” of the US government lo these dismal four years past. You will learn who was pulling his strings day-to-day since 1/20/21, probably a gang of 25-year-old, ambitious, Cluster-B staffers too disorganized to even amount to a cabal — but sufficiently united in their mission to destroy the country by any means necessary.

Whose idea was it, anyway, back in the spring of 2020, to retrieve this broken hack from the dumpster of discarded Democratic Party primary candidates and jam him into the role of nominee for president? You’d suspect Barack Obama, of course, since the former president had set-up a war-room across town from the White House during the Trump interregnum, and had openly bragged that he’d love nothing better than to someday kick back in a warm-up suit and phone-in governing orders to a stand-in dummy occupying the oval office.

Except Mr. Obama famously disdained his former veep. The few duties “Joe Biden” had in that role (under poor supervision apparently), he converted into a money-laundering and grift operation — most notoriously his adventures in pre-war Ukraine, where First Son Hunter played bag-man from his seat on the Burisma gas company board. That racket evolved quickly and neatly so that at just about every airport around the world that Air Force Two landed, Hunter and “Joe” were clocking-in fat bribes, supposedly for “influence.” That was the joke, of course, because “Joe Biden” had no influence with his President Obama, who regarded him as an idiot, a bumbling Inspector Clouseau, of whom he famously said, “Don't underestimate Joe's ability to **** things up."

Yet, somehow, the old crook got maneuvered into “winning” the 2020 Super Tuesday multi-primary — abracadabra! Ballot magic! — while some little birdie flew around and persuaded Elizabeth Warren, Mayor Pete, Amy Klobuchar and the rest to drop out. Meanwhile, the Deep State blob had delivered the gift of Covid-19, whatever it was, a lab creation, a seasonal flu, or just a mass of PCR-test fake positives, and Mr. Trump was snookered into lockdowns by the same public health blobsters who engineered the “pandemic” crisis: Fauci, Birx, Francis Collins, Alex Azar, et al., with Bill Gates, Ralph Baric, and Klaus Schwab lurking somewhere in the background.

You can’t overstate the fervency of the Democratic Party in 2020 to eject Mr. Trump from office, considering the threat he represented to all of DC’s business-as-usual — especially after he escaped the perfidious impeachment trap engineered by legal assassins Mary McCord and Norm Eisen. Ergo, The USA slid haplessly into an ethos of grotesque institutional lying and election fraud because, you see, something else had evolved ominously backstage since 2016: the criminal activities of the FBI, CIA, DOJ, and Pentagon (major blob tentacles) in the drawn-out RussiaGate scam. Many people needed to shield themselves from potential prosecution.

“Joe Biden” hit the campaign trail like he was Rutherford B. Hayes, back in the day when candidates for president barely strayed beyond the front porch of their home. To say he hid in his basement was only a slight exaggeration. The few public events his handlers dragged him into attracted the public in embarrassing double-digits. He was already widely suspected of being in clinical dementia. Despite the blob’s best efforts, the content of Hunter’s laptop was already leaking onto the Interwebs, photos of Hunter naked with whores, guns, and drugs, deal memos between shadowy foreigners and Hunter’s Rosemont-Seneca money laundromat. But, of course, the news media buried all that and social media censored it.

And so, more election magic! The blob’s “Big Lie” trope — employed to this day even in the latest cabinet confirmation hearings — was itself the biggest lie, a complete inversion of the truth, which is that the 2020 election was a total and comprehensive fraud. It was an orgy of crime carried out across many states. Those of us who stayed up late the night of November 3-4, 2020, watched the numbers slip-and-slide from one column to the other right in our faces, saw the videos of fake ballots in Fulton County, GA, the shenanigans in Philadelphia, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Detroit, and Milwaukee. Mark Zuckerberg had laid nearly half a billion dollars on swing states to switch-out election officials with Democratic Party activists and to fund ballot “harvesting” ops. Yes, you can state with certainty that the 2020 election was rigged and stolen for “Joe Biden.”

The four years of “Joe Biden’s” term-in-office that followed have induced the most severe disordering of the collective American mind in our history, lost in a fog of perfidious mendacity unmatched in scope by the Civil War, or any other national crisis. “Joe Biden’s” government went to war against the people of this land, at the same time it sold-out our vital national interests to the CCP, the WEF, the WHO, and other parties seeking our nation’s destruction. For years, we have been forced to swallow absurdities such as unsafe and ineffective vaccines, drag queens in the grade schools, borders wide-open to saboteurs (declared to be “secure”), and a stupid war against Russia that has destroyed the sad-sack nation of Ukraine.

“Joe Biden” has been a disaster and an embarrassment, easily the most damaging character to ever creep onto the US political scene. His one talent was for fakery. Even with sclerosis eating through his brain, he was able to go through the motions of faking it, reading his script off the teleprompter — though he was no longer up to casual questions in a news conference setting. The slime trail of crimes he leaves behind would be easy to follow by law enforcement officials actually interested in crime. He’s likely to pardon himself at the last moment, and pardon a long roster of federal officials who have committed crimes with and behind him. One way or another, they are going to be found out, even if many manage to evade prosecution. But at least we are going to learn a lot more about who was pulling “Joe’s” strings, and exactly what they did, and how — including the trick of making the news media hostage to their crimes.

So, adios, “Joe Biden,” you miserable, treasonous ****. History will record you as the one president so far who was consciously a villain outright, in true self-knowledge of his own wickedness. You left your country a wreck in every dimension: in national security, national bankruptcy, national pride, and national confidence. Go back to Delaware and sit in the dim light of your room with the curtains drawn so you won’t have to hear about the gruesome discoveries to come of what you left behind.

And when the day arrives for your funeral, be advised that it will not be much better than your campaign stop in Darby, PA, in June 2020, when you maundered pointlessly to a nearly empty room... before going out for ice cream with your secret service detail.

I so called this administration from Page One...1st post...I was surprised he lived and wasn't impeached even if it was ceremonial like Trump's were.

Heard a rumor that when the Trumps walked up to the White House and were introduced to the Bidens he told Dr. Jill that her husband was fired. Pedo Joe asked her what he said and she replied "you did that".


The Biden Administration is the most corrupt POS tyranny we've ever had. Allowing illegals...funding terrorism...igniting world wars...raping taxpayers...exploiting DEI to the extreme positions of getting people killed and a total disregard for the Constitution...the Judicial Branch...the Rule of Law and decency. They gaslit the planet and were exposed by those willing to stand up. There was nothing they did that mattered. History will recall them as the POSs they all were. We made it. For those that escaped with their lives...honor those that didn't.

The Final Corruption of Joe Biden



Below is my column in the Hill on the decision of Joe Biden to end his presidency with a final act of ignominy. The use of his pardon authority to protect his own family members was the final corruption of Joe Biden.

Here is the column:

With only 15 minutes to go as president, Joe Biden snatched infamy from the jaws of obscurity.

With record-low polling and widely viewed as a “failed” president, Biden completed his one-man race to the bottom of ethics by issuing preemptive pardons to members of his own family.

The pardons were timed to guarantee that the media would not focus on yet another unethical act by this president. He need not have worried. For four years, the media worked tirelessly to deny or deflect the corruption scandal surrounding the Biden family.

The pardoning of James Biden, Sara Jones Biden, Valerie Biden Owens, John Owens and Francis Biden brought an inescapable clarity to the corruption of what is known in Washington as Biden Inc.

I have written about the Biden family’s corruption for decades. Influence-peddling has always been the favorite form of corruption in Washington, but this city has never seen the likes of the Biden family. Millions of dollars were secured from foreign sources and distributed to various Biden family members.

Biden repeatedly lied about the influence peddling. He long denied knowing about his son’s foreign clients or business. He denied ever meeting Hunter’s clients. Later, photos and emails showed that Biden had clearly met these clients and knew about the business deals. He was fully aware that his family was cashing in on his name and various offices.

Even Biden’s claims about handling the Trump cases were recently contradicted. While long claiming that he left these cases to the Justice Department and took no position on the merits, the Washington Post recently reported that Biden was irate over the failure to prosecute Trump before the election. He also reportedly lashed out at Attorney General Merrick Garland and said he regretted his appointment in light of the failure to nail Trump.

One of the most glaring lies was that he would never pardon his son. Few people believed him. Indeed, Hunter Biden’s bizarre criminal defense made no sense unless he knew that he had a pocket pardon if all else failed.

Once he was forced out of the presidential race, Biden was freed up to sign a pardon for any and all crimes committed over a ten-year period by his son. He insisted that he really hadn’t been lying. He claimed that no ordinary person would have been tried for his son’s crimes — a manifestly untrue statement. He also emphasized that he had to take this step as a father of a son who was a hopeless addict and has now been clean for years.

However, the latest family pardon shatters even that rationalization. These Bidens are not even charged with any crimes, but Biden wanted to give them cover from any possible prosecution for anything. It was the ultimate sign of contempt for the intelligence of the American public and the integrity of his office.

Biden has long exercised situational ethics and, with his powers coming to an end, the situation demanded that he cash out before his credit ended. In granting these pardons, Biden was seeking to protect not just his family but also himself. He was the object of the influence peddling and repeatedly lied to bury the scandal. This insulation of his family serves to move the threat farther from himself.

Biden, however, may have been too clever by half this time. In the final moments of his presidency, He broke into the open and exposed not just himself but his allies in the media. Reporters are now fully visible as willing dupes in one of the greatest corruption scandals in the history of this country.


In his pardon statement, Biden insisted that “the issuance of these pardons should not be mistaken as an acknowledgment that any individual engaged in any wrongdoing, nor should acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for any offense.” Of course, that is the very opposite of what most people will conclude. More importantly, the pardons will not end the threat to his family.

Figures such as James Biden have been accused of lying to Congress about the influence-peddling operation. He can still be subpoenaed and, if he lies, he can be charged with a new crime.

Indeed, after James Biden’s pardon, it will be argued that he has less basis to claim the right to remain silent about any alleged crimes committed during the period for which the pardon applies. (He could argue that there is a danger of state charges, but that is less credible due to the running of statutes of limitation and other factors.)

The pardons, if anything, make such an investigation even more compelling for those who want answers to longstanding questions of corruption.

Biden sealed his legacy with a finality that escapes most presidents. While his diminished mental capacity will remain an issue for historians, his longstanding lack of ethics was conclusively established with these pardons. It was Biden’s final act of corruption.

For a president who liked to call others “lying dog-faced pony soldiers,” Biden proved that, in the world of political corruption, the ponies are entirely optional.

Joe is a black Freemason. OhMyGod Pray

Did Joe Biden join the Freemasons?

Ed. Condon
January 24, 2025 . 7:51 PM

Quote:
An announcement surfaced online Friday, issued the Conference of Grand Masters of Prince Hall Lodge Freemasonry, and stating that the Grand Lodge of South Carolina had conferred membership on President Joe Biden.

According to the announcement, dated Jan. 19 — the day before Biden left office — the president was granted a “resolution of membership” by the lodge in recognition of his “exceptional dedication and service to the United States” which “reflects the core values of the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of South Carolina, including brotherly love, relief, and truth.”

It is not uncommon for outgoing presidents to be honored by groups and organizations.

But as the second Catholic to hold the office, Biden’s new “membership” of the lodge presents a particular issue: Catholics have been banned from joining masonic lodges and organizations since 1738, and are subject to canonical penalties for doing so.

So, is Joe Biden now a Freemason? And if so, what canonical penalties does he face? Based on the facts available, the situation is more complicated than you might think.

Remember the Russian Arms Dealer We Released in Exchange for Brittney Griner? Well...



Joe Biden’s record of being the worst American foreign policy mind continues with the latest development on the activities of Viktor Bout. To refresh, he’s the infamous Russian arms dealer we released in exchange for WNBA player Brittney Griner in 2022. To the shock of no one, Bout is back to arms dealing, with his latest customer being the Iran-backed Houthi rebels (via WSJ):

BREAKING:

Viktor Bout, the Russian arms dealer that the Biden-Harris administration let out of prison in-exchange for Brittney Griner, is now back in business selling weapons to the Houthis

— Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) October 7, 2024

Viktor Bout, the Russian arms dealer known as the “Merchant of Death,” walked out of a U.S. jail almost two years ago in a trade with Moscow for U.S. basketball star Brittney Griner. Now he is back in business, trying to broker the sale of small arms to Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi militants.


The 57-year-old, whose life reportedly inspired the 2005 Hollywood movie, “Lord of War,” starring Nicolas Cage, spent decades selling Soviet-made weapons in Africa, South America and the Middle East before being arrested in 2008 in a U.S. law enforcement sting operation.

Since his release, Bout has joined a pro-Kremlin far-right party and won a seat in a local assembly in 2023, seemingly turning the page on his days as an arms broker. But when Houthi emissaries went to Moscow in August to negotiate the purchase of $10 million worth of automatic weapons, they encountered a familiar face: the mustachioed Bout, according to a European security official and other people familiar with the matter.


Remember when Biden-Harris freed the Merchant of Death (Viktor Bout) for the America-hating WNBA player, Griner?

He just sold $10M arms to the Houthis. pic.twitter.com/YKDARSA9Uk

So, this man bungled Afghanistan, continues to sink us deeper into this Ukraine quagmire, has proven to be ineffectual in Gaza—the broken pier perfectly captures Biden’s failed foreign policy—and now just delivered the Houthis another avenue from which to procure weapons. I know there are other disasters from Mr. ‘America is Back,’ but the knifing he took from his party illustrates the weakness of this presidency.

When you’re a weak old man, you’ll get bulldozed. That’s Joe Biden.

The Houthi terrorists got a new arms man, thanks to the Biden foreign policy. It’s not as bad as Obama’s deal for Bowe Bergdahl, but it's close.

So glad we have that lezbo weedian dribbler back....she's really solving the whole world peace issue for America.

Just got another American released from Russia and I guarantee you we didn’t have to give up an infamous arms dealer.
