June, 2021, Political Class Insanity, Part 2: Biden's Approval In Free Fall, The White House Might Get A Cat, Violence In NYC and More

It is the beginning of another month which means it is time again to review the latest political class insanity from the American political class. Each month it takes us multiple posts to cover the wasteful spending, incompetent government organizations and employees, government programs that usually make a problem worse than resolving it, inane and idiotic politician comments, etc.

To review past posts on this insanity and idiocy, just click on the first few posts in each month listed to the right of this page. After reviewing just a handful of these insanity posts we think you will agree that we are currently being served by the worst set of American politicians ever to hold office in our entire history.

1) We have often talked about how we should expect our politicians and government workers to be honest, hardworking, and always looking out for the good of the taxpayer. That we would hope they would be of the highest character since we are paying their salaries to serve us.

But that is rarely the case as recently illustrated by a former high ranking city employee in San Francisco:
  • Mohammed Nuru was once the high ranking city employee and director of San Francisco’s public works entity.
  • It was his job to clean, maintain and organize repairs for the city government.
  • He was nicknamed “Mr. Clean” for his role in keeping the city clean.
  • But he was recently arrested for trying to rob a man at knife point.
  • Yes, a former city employee, who was probably pulling down over $100,000 a year in city salary, was arrested for robbery.
  • The altercation and arrest took place at a food bank where Nuru was a volunteer.
  • He apparently wanted to steal a bag of potato chips from another man at the food bank and pulled a knife to emphasize his desire for chips.
  • This incident comes on top of a previous criminal charge involving public corruption.

Nice guy, corruption and knife wielding, a fine upstanding public servant. Allegedly flashing a knife for a bag of potato chips no less.

2) It has also been a strong belief that for a democracy to endure, a free, aggressive, fair, and professional press is needed to inform voters and citizens of the critical issues of our times and to make sure politicians stay in line. Unfortunately, today in this country we do not have a fair, professional, aggressive,and unbiased press industry. Examples abound by the thousands of how the mainstream press is no longer professional, no longer journalistic, no longer the watchdog on the politicians and government we need to have a free, thriving democracy.

This was again illustrated at a recent White House briefing with White House Press secretary Jen Psaki:
  • Keep in mind that we have a criminal, drug cartel, and humanitarian crisis at the border.
  • Inflation is becoming a bigger and bigger concern in all of our lives.
  • The Middle East is simmering and flaring up in violent and fatal ways.
  • China is trying to take over the world.
  • Hackers from around the world are attacking every component of our lives.
  • There are a lot of ripe and juicy stories out there for American journalists to pursue and help resolve.
  • But all of these cases listed above took a backseat to discussion at that recent White House briefing.
  • The main issue the press was worried about that day was whether or not the Biden family was going to get a cat as a pet.
  • Yes, the potential for a First Cat.
  • Brittany Shepherd, of Yahoo News, asked this critical question of Jen Psaki, the rest of the crises in the world be damned: "Any update on the White House cat? Is that something that's still happening here? Our readers are asking us a lot."
  • Rather than point out to the Yahoo News reporter that the question was not critical relative to the rest of the world, Psaki actually wasted everyone’s time by actually answering the question: "I bet. I've been joking, although maybe it might be true, that we're waiting for a bad news day for that to come out. If you see a tail wagging coming out of the briefing room, you'll know something bad is about to happen. I don't have any update on the cat."
Seriously, who cares about a hypothetical cat when people are dying on the border, dying in the Middle East, dying from the virus??? This is what passes for journalism in this country today in a time of crises? This is what a White House press secretary wastes time on? So pathetic from a journalism professionalism perspective.

3) It has always been our contention that a very, very basic function of government is to protect the lives and property of its citizens. If the government did nothing else, as long as they did that well we would be ahead of the game.

But alas, many government entities around the country do not do that well at all despite being a basic government function. Many, many times we have talked about the carnage that grips Chicago everyday with the dozens of shootings and many, many murders every week. Over the past year, criminal activity and violence has spiked in many liberal, Democratic cities around the country as they “defund the police” and then watch crime skyrocket.

But Chicago is not alone:
  • According to the NYC Police Department, the same department that Mayor de Blasio stripped of over $1 billion in funding, the number of shootings in the city is up 86% year over year through May
  • Over the recent Memorial day weekend, 13 people were shot in NYC including a Bronx 15 year old boy who was killed in a shooting.
Again, a basic tenet of government is protecting citizens and a basic tenet of American politicians is that they fail miserably in their duty.

4) We have never been a big fan of just about any politician but are certainly a fan by any stretch of the imagination of Joe Biden. We have laid out a number of times of how much he is a sexual predator, a racist, and pathological liar, as outlined extensively in the following post:


More recently we ran a series of three posts where we already could document with numbers and reality that his Presidency was failing already, less than five months in:




And it now appears that the rest of the country is also picking up on our contention that he is a failure already:
  • A new Rasmussen poll found that a majority of American believe Joe Biden is the weakest President of modern times.
  • Only 32% of poll respondents think Biden is a strong President compared to others.
  • 43% “believe Biden is a weaker commander in chief than most recent presidents.”
  • 51% of Democrats believe Biden is a strong President, 12% of Republicans think he is a strong President, and 25% of independents think he is a strong President.
  • Although a majority of Democrats think he is a strong President (51%), that means 49% of even Democrats don't think he is a strong President.
  • 75% of Republicans “think Biden is a weaker commander in chief compared to most recent presidents, as do 13% of Democrats and 44% of unaffiliated voters.”
  • The majority of respondents (54%) think that Biden is less aggressive than recent Presidents “in pushing what is best for America,” while only 24 percent think Biden is more aggressive.
  • In less than five months Biden is in free fall and taking the country with him.
So, we have another corrupt and possibly violent former government official running loose with a knife in San Francisco, the pathetic priorities of the mainstream press, more defund the police idiocy that endangers more and more Americans every day, and the nosediving, negative perception of Biden’s Presidency.
