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) Today’s post is going to be mostly focused on the cognitive and moral decline of Joe Biden. Everyone has a slip of the tongue or a slip of the mind occasionally but when it happens so often and it happens in the presence of other symptoms, then eventually one has to reach the conclusion that he is in the throes of a cognitive decline caused by unknown causes at this point in time.
And these slips are not recent, they extend back into the middle of 2020 and the Presidential race. In fact, we made the case that his wife, his family and his political handlers were guilty of elder abuse to put him through the rigors of a Presidential campaign.
We have reported on a variety of situations where Biden’s continuing cognitive decline was on display:
- He tripped multiple times trying to walk up the steps to get into Air Force One.
- He got lost and bewildered on a tarmac trying to get to a helicopter and had to be literally rounded up by Kamala Harris and Secret Service agents.
- He threatened to run over a reporter who asked him a serious question about the violence in the Middle East.
- When asked another question about what he learned from a Middle East briefing he simply said he learned “ a lot.”
- During his first real press conference he had to be provided a seating chart of the reporters along with their names and photos, even though he had interfaced with these same people during his decades in Washington, so that he would not embarrass himself.
2) Unfortunately, Biden’s accelerating cognitive decline is not only embarrassing but fatal in a variety of ways. His lack of understanding and misguided principles on the Middle East have led to Palestinian and Israeli deaths in the latest flare up in Middle East violence on his watch. People are dying at the southern border after he encouraged them to make dangerous and illegal attempts to enter the country. His reversal of a Trump directive on opioid addiction has likely led to thousands of unnecessary drug addiction deaths.
And now his missteps at the border are likely to increase the drug addiction in this country problem even more:
- The flood of illegal immigrants at the border has resulted in Border Patrol resources being pulled away from stopping the flow of illegal drugs into this country.
- There have been news reports of drug cartels bringing semi tractor trailers to the border loaded with highly addictive fentanyl.
- As the cartels flood our country with this highly addictive substance, the addiction and death toll from it is likely to skyrocket.
- In a recent interview, Texas governor Greg Abbott estimated that there had been an 800% increase in the amount of fentanyl intercepted at the border in the past year, giving an indication of how much more of the illegal drug is getting into the country.
- Specifically: “I’ve got to tell you, Steve, there’s something else, a new dynamic about what’s going on at the border that Americans need to know about, and that is the increased apprehension of fentanyl coming across the border. Yes, there may be people coming across the border. But there [are] dangerous drugs coming across the border. For your audience who may not know, two milligrams of fentanyl is a fatal dose. And so, know this, we had…[an] almost 800% increase April over April of the amount of fentanyl that has been apprehended by the Texas Department of Public Safety. We have obtained enough fentanyl coming across the border to kill every single person in the state of New York.”
- Think about that scary statistic: the border law enforcement people have intercepted enough fentanyl to kill 19 million people, the entire population of New York state, imagine how much the non- intercepted fentanyl could kill.
3) Politicians lie all of the time, one of the reasons why our election processes are broken and the country is in the mess we are in: once elected, American politicians care only about themselves and their own self enrichment and whatever help they promised to the American people in their campaign is quickly forgotten.
And as a long term member of the American political class, Biden is no different, as we see from his blatant lying about how heavily he will tax all of us, not just the wealthy, not just companies, ALL of us:
- When campaigning in 2020, Biden promised he would only raise taxes on big corporations and individuals making over $400,000 a year.
- But once in office it became clear that the $400,000 number was bogus since it turns out that the $400,000 a year promise was for households, not individuals as he originally promised.
- Thus, a husband and wife who each make $200,000 would see their taxes go up since in total they earn over $400,000 a year, Biden’s first little lie.
- But his tax lies do not end there.
- According to Jim Tankersley of the New York Times, that newspaper has obtained a copy of Biden’s budget documents.
- In those documents we see that Biden plans to tax EVERY American at higher rates by 2025: “The documents forecast that Mr. Biden and Congress will allow tax cuts for low- and middle-income Americans, signed into law by President Donald J. Trump in 2017, to expire as scheduled in 2025.”
- In case you forget, Trump’s tax rate cuts allowed well over 100,000,000 hard working American to keep much more of their earned income regardless of how wealthy or not wealthy they were.
- These tax cuts increased average household income, reduced unemployment levels to unheard lows for African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, women, high school educated workers, and just about every other sub-category of American worker, raised consumer confidence, brought high paying manufacturing jobs back into this country, reduced energy and gasoline prices, and all the while kept inflation well under control.
- By allowing those tax cuts to expire, we can expect the opposite effects to take place: higher unemployment especially for minorities, lower household income, higher gas and energy prices, the loss of high paying manufacturing jobs, and higher inflation.
And for those of you who hate Trump and disagree with the above scenario that played out when Trump cut just about everyone’s taxes, get yourself educated on reality. Keep in mind that when Democrat President Bill Clinton cut taxes during his term, the economy skyrocketed and everyone benefited, just like what happened under Trump. When Democrat Harry Truman cut government spending and taxes after World War II, the economy skyrocketed.
As we have said so many times, this country has a government overspending problem, it does not have an under taxation problem. But as a long term member of the American political class, Biden, and the rest of them, do not understand basic economics and as a result, they have to lie during the campaign about not raising taxes and then do just the opposite when elected : expand government spending, which is always inefficient, ineffective, and wasteful, and make us pay for their economic ignorance.
4) And while the past few posts and this one have focused on the cognitive decline of Joe Biden and the chaos, deaths, and bad policies that are resulting from his decline, let’s not forget that he has a Vice president who is just as ineffective, just as out of touch, just as vain as him:
- Biden assigned Vice President Kamala Harris the task of fixing the illegal immigrant fiasco he created at the southern border.
- Over two months after receiving that assignment, she has yet to visit the border to try and understand what is really going on but has visited other places in the country that did not require her to put forth any deep thought or leadership skills.
- At a recent meeting with the leader of our strong ally, South Korea, she wiped her hand on her clothes after shaking the leader’s hand, a major diplomatic and sensitivity screwup.
- And this past weekend, the weekend when we honored those American soldiers and airmen who gave their lives to protect our lives and our freedoms, Harris vainly tweeted out a picture of herself with the words, “enjoy the long weekend.”
- No mention of the sacrifices made by those that served our country, no remembrance for those that died in that service, no, just a light airy picture of herself with her wishes to have fun.
Those that died serving the country, those that died protecting our rights and lives deserve better than what comprises the American political class today.
