I think reporters have became irrelevant. Everyone know they all push an agenda and are entertainers, not news reporters. I can watch/listen to Trump/ Vance and Harris/Walz to reach my own opinion. These specific networks wonder why their ratings have tanked. Is it that hard to figure out they no longer provide news? I imagine if a network provided factual news without adding their opinions they would do great.

I haven’t intentionally watched cable news in quite awhile. I do see the occasional clip on YouTube or I might see a bit if I’m at the VA awaiting x-rays or something. FOX, MSNBC, CNN are absolute poison for me.

"This Is Awful" - Biden's Final Indignity: 'Angry Old Man' Demoted To Midnight Speech At DNC

Day one of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) kicked off with excitement as delegates and attendees listened to speeches from major lawmakers and leaders from the Democratic Party.

Amid embittered remarks from Hillary Clinton, protesters gathered outside the perimeter of the United Center to demonstrate against the Biden-Harris administration’s military support for Israel during the Israel–Hamas war.

But all eyes were really on the last speaker of the night - the outgoing president - who spoke late, very late (well past his prescribed bedtime) in a speech that attempted to revive Dark Brandon but just sounded like an angry old man yelling at the moon (of lies he has conjured in his mind about the 'others').

Prior to Biden’s speech at the convention, Harris made a surprise appearance on the convention stage on Monday night to honor Biden.

“Joe, thank you for your historic leadership, for your lifetime of service to our nation and for all you will continue to do. We are forever grateful to you,” she said in brief remarks.

As LibertyNation's Tim Donner wrote:

Since Joe Biden was willing to accept the humiliation of being forced out of his campaign for reelection, perhaps it follows that he would be amenable to accepting the final indignity of delivering his farewell address at his party’s convention on a night usually reserved for second- and third-tier speakers.

Indeed, the unconventional decision to have the sitting president speak on the first night of the 2024 Democratic National Convention (DNC) – as opposed to either not speaking at all or being placed in a prominent slot on a succeeding night – was undoubtedly the product of a tortured compromise.

To add to the indignity, the DNC ran so far behind schedule on its opening night that the president did not even appear until 36 minutes after his scheduled start time of 10:50 pm ET, which by itself was something of an insult, and led some to question if the delay was deliberate, or effectively an attempt to drive Biden out of view to the primetime audience.

Making the sitting president of the United States wait until after 11:30 P.M. Eastern - well after prime time - to give the final big speech after 52 years in public office was the final signal that they were done and dusted with old Joe.

“This is awful. He literally set up a campaign and handed it over to them — do they have to cut him out of prime time?” one longtime Biden aide texted Axios reporter Alex Thompson.

We're 90 minutes behind schedule.

It's unconscionable to have President Biden's address occur at midnight ET.

We should postpone some upcoming folks and put the president up there soon.
— Christopher Hale (@chrisjollyhale) August 20, 2024

“The media is very East Coast focused though, you’ve gotta be pretty naive to think the prolonged DNC tonight is for any reason other than diminishing Biden’s visibility,” Silver tweeted.

Joe received the required ovation, and as PJMedia's Victoria Taft details below, the party's cheerleaders held signs reading "We (heart) Joe."

The crowd chanted "We love Joe!" but nothing can quite make up for how Biden was treated by his party in the days leading up to night one of the Chicago convention.

An angry looking and glassy-eyed Joe gave nothing more than a typical stump speech to the crowd with check list State of the Union overtones.

Joe attempted to summon Dark Brandon, but just looked like an angry old man.

And then came the whoppers.

Biden lied about his reason getting into the 2020 race, claiming Donald Trump embraced neo-Nazis.

Obviously, that "nice people on both sides" trope has been obliterated by simply looking at the record, but Joe doesn't care.

Ironically, Biden gave everyone a spit-take moment when he later said that "both sides" of the Gaza war protests, including pro-Hamas—literal pro-Nazi-- protesters outside the convention hall, "have a point."

You can't make this up.

The president told the crowd that Donald Trump scuttled a border deal that would have legalized all the people Biden allowed into the country.

Even his own crowd wasn't buying it.

He claimed billionaires pay fewer taxes than most taxpayers.

Embarrassing.

The man who tyrannically used COVID emergency powers to keep America shut down and businesses on ventilators claimed he stood for "freedom, democracy, and America."

"Democracy must be preserved!" thundered glassy-eyed Joe to a crowd that was looking for a little inspiration.

Joe bungled a few lines of the speech when he lost his way on the teleprompter, and at one point the crowd guffawed at the bumbling.

Toward the end of his speech, a meandering President Sundowning began slurring and rushing his sentences and then told the biggest whopper of the night:

"And all this talk about how I'm angry at all those people that said I should step down—that's not true."

We "believe" you, angry guy.

He told the dwindling and less enthusiastic hangers on in the room that he had given the country his best. Was anyone listening?

Joe got around to talking nicely about Kamala Harris and America after midnight Eastern time. And that's not hyperbole! Not a joke. I give you my word as a Biden.

Reflecting on the farce that was last night, LibertyNation's Tim Donner concludes, like the outsized stakes of this election itself, the outcome will be either a triumph or catastrophe for Joe Biden.

If Harris wins, it will affirm his presidency and his legacy as the man who saved the country from Trump.

But if Trump wins, Biden will forever be blamed for seeing the handwriting of his demise on the wall and stubbornly refusing to step aside until it was too late, ultimately handing the country back to the 45th president.

In a career marked by sustained power but constant disappointments – two badly failed presidential campaigns, an unserious image, and rejection by Barack Obama in 2016 in favor of Hillary Clinton – the end is nigh for Joe Biden. He cashed in on extraordinary circumstances to finally reach the promised land, only to be betrayed by the irreversible indignity of his own cognitive decline. His half-century as the quintessential Washington insider was marked by bookends of success and failure, centrism and progressivism, and, in the end, youth and age.

“For the longest time, I was too damn young because I only was 29 when I got elected,” Biden playfully lamented at a recent rally for his VP in Maryland. “Now I’m too damn old.”

Was last night setting the scene for the 'October Surprise' we hinted at?

I've been pretty upset about what happened.

I had this ready to post today: House Concludes Biden "Actively Participated" In Impeachable Offenses - Except It's Too Late To Impeach Him

"The GOP-led House committees who have been investigating the Biden family shook their fist at the sky on Monday, announcing in a 291-page report that the president engaged in impeachable conduct by helping to enrich his family with millions of dollars through various business schemes to trade on the family name - and then defrauded voters by lying to cover it up, Just the News reports.

The House Oversight, Ways and Means and Judiciary Committees said they believe the evidence from their nine-month investigation establishes that Biden abused his office and violated his oaths under the Constitution, according to the 291-page report reviewed by Just the News..."

frankj1 wrote:

A 291 page report???...Interesting reading. They can bring charges...there isn't a single Democrat that will side with the GOP to press impeachment because well, that reserved for Trump only.

"“President Joe Biden conspired to commit influence peddling and grift,” the committees wrote. “In doing so, he abused his office and, by repeatedly lying about his abuse of office, has defrauded the United States to enrich his family.”

You can read the full impeachment inquiry report below:

2024.08.19 Report of the Impeachment Inquiry of Joseph R. Biden Jr. President of the United States.pdf

Here are the most important findings of the impeachment investigation:

Biden family received more than $27 million from foreign sources

The committee’s investigation found Hunter Biden and other family members received over $27 million from foreign sources. These funds were often obscured in “shell companies” to hide their true origins, the committee says. Some of the funds sent from China, for example, ended up directly in Joe Biden’s bank account.

As part of the $27 million, Hunter Biden received significant compensation from several foreign ventures and positions.

For example, his role on the board of directors of the embattled Ukrainian energy company, Burisma, whose owner Mykola Zlochevksy was facing corruption allegations in Ukraine. Biden received a $1 million a year salary for his role on the board.

After receiving that position he would use his influence in Washington, D.C. to help organize a public relations campaign for the company and work to shut down the corruption investigation into Zlochevsky, even meeting personally with State Department officials.

In another instance, Hunter Biden received a $5 million loan in 2017 from entities connected to the energy firm CEFC China Energy. Just the News reported in 2022 that Hunter Biden had received this $5 million "interest free," forgivable loan. Emails from Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop showed that the loan was intended to benefit the Biden family, referred to as the "BD family."

One thing for certain...Biden left the VP position much more "robust".

Biden Team Unhappy With How He Was Treated - and There's Talk of 'Revenge'

The convention is a time for the Democrats to present themselves in their best light in the hopes that more people will vote for them.

But what have they shown so far?

Wild radical protesters, dancing abortion pills, free vasectomies, as well as a raft of lies from Joe Biden and other Democrats. Oh, and a bunch of Democrats who didn't seem to know how to sing the National Anthem. That's probably not going to go over well.

Then there was the chaos of shoving Biden to speak very late on Monday night. Not to mention that Biden did not exactly sound very joyful as he was ranting and screaming during his speech.

Biden DNC Speech Is a Historic Trainwreck - With a Slurring, Stumbling,
Screaming Speech Full of Lies

DNC Day 2 Doesn't Start Well: Dems Butcher National Anthem,
Protesters Make It Inside the Convention

Maybe that was because he was up way past his bedtime. But his team was not exactly happy, as Matt Margolis at our sister site PJ Media reported.

Alex Thompson of Axios reported that a longtime Biden aide texted him, “This is awful. He literally set up a campaign and handed it over to them—do they have to cut him out of prime time?"

Joe's team may be thick, but they get an insult when they're handed one. How could you not? And now that Harris has taken over, one has to think that's all on her that he was treated like old newspaper.

It also says a lot about Biden that he was out of there like a shot and wasn't sticking around to hear the speeches from Barack Obama or Kamala Harris; he's on more vacation for a week. That says exactly what he thinks about them in return.

Margolis noted the report that Obama threatened Biden that they had Kamala on board with making a 25th Amendment move against him. That could leave Biden disturbed at Harris, in addition to how everything went down at the DNC, although he did endorse her.

While Biden said during his remarks that reports about him being angry weren't true, over the years, Joe Biden has shown that he's a very petty man who doesn't like to be challenged. He's been challenged in a big way with all this. So I don't think I believe him when he says that he isn't angry.

It also sounds like there may be some kind of revenge on someone's mind.

Peter Hamby at Puck News reports that something is brewing behind the scenes. "Make no mistake: Biden, and a handful of advisers in his inner circle, are still licking their wounds after the party putsch to get him out of the race," he writes. "They would love to live in a world where Biden was still the nominee, even if things are unquestionably better for the party now, with a tidal wave of post-Biden excitement that has Harris surging in the polls."

Hamby continues:

I’m also told by two Democratic sources that Biden communications adviser Anita Dunn gave a rather salty departure speech at her farewell event after leaving the White House two weeks ago, with an odd reference to The Godfather and vague allusions to “getting revenge,” one person told me. Harris herself isn’t a big fan of Dunn, so her departure was probably for the best.

Now, we'll have to see what, if anything, comes to pass.

Yes, they threw Biden under the bus again with how they treated him on Monday. But he also threw his own legacy under the bus by making it not about that legacy but about Donald Trump. So that will be his legacy — the guy who imploded his career so badly he had to be shoved aside and went out consumed with hatred for Trump.

https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2024/08/20/is-the-biden-team-planning-some-revenge-n2178334

I'm thinking he $hits the bed again or falls down trying out his Dark Brandon curtain call.
