February, 2024, Part 3, Political Class Insanity: Biden Sees More Dead People, Denver Buckling Under Biden's Illegal Immigrant Failure, and More

 Every month we devote posts to just general political class insanity that is running rampant through the country. The members of the American political class continue to show that they are incapable of operating any level of government in this country. 


Even their best efforts are almost always inefficient and ineffective at resolving any problem facing Americans. They spend a great amount of time not trying to improve the lives of their citizens but continually ensuring their reelection and enriching themselves, their families, and their friends in the process, all at taxpayer expense.


1)We have previously discussed the sad reality that hospitals in Denver are undergoing extreme, possibly bankrupting, times, since they cannot handle the big influx of illegal immigrants into the city and their drain on hospital resources. Most of the time these resources are free of charge to the ailing illegal immigrants since they have  no resources to pay for their medical bills. 

And apparently the situation in the rest of Denver regarding illegal immigrants is not getting any better:

  • The city has run out of shelter space to house the thousands of illegal immigrants that have  descended on the city.

  • Thus, the city has started to evict current shelter residents to make room for new arrived illegal immigrants.

  • According to the Dever mayor, Mike Johnston: “Every single hotel rooms that we have available in the city and county of Dennver is filled. We now face the terrible decision that if we don’t start exiting folks, we will have 250 folks arriving today or the day after, with nowhere to go at night.”

  • Those being evicted are those that have been in city shelters for more than six weeks.

  • According to Newsweek, over 600 families involving about 3,000 illegal  immigrants are  facing eviction.

  • Over the coming  months, Newsweek reports 50-60 illegal immigrant families will be evicted each day in  Denver.

  • Housing these illegal  immigrants is causing the city government to face a $180,000,000 budget deficit.

  • The Denver mayor estimates that the city needs another $100,000,000 over the next year to cover the cost of housing, feeding and providing health care services to the illegal immigrants coming into the city.

  • He pointed out these dollars have to come from somewhere and he  specifically inferred that cuts to police, fire, sanitation, and other city services will occur in their budgets.

  • The city had taken to buying bus tickets to ship their illegal immigrant problem to other cities.

What a mess. Biden’s failed  immigration policies are the cause of  this giant problem but mayors like the one in  Denver deserve some of the blame since for years they have sanctimoniously proclaimed that their cities were “sanctuary cities” where all illegal immigrants are welcome. 

That stupidity has now come home to roost as their cities are overrun and their tax paying citizens suffer with fewer government services available from their tax dollars. One of the most massive failures of the American political class in decades.

2)Biden’s cognitive failings continue to mount relative to his memory and people who have died:

  • Many times during his recent time in office Biden has incorrectly stated when and where his son, Beau, died from cancer. 

  • During a White House event to celebrate the signing of a piece of legislation, Biden searched the audience for Congresswoman Jackie Walorski in  order to  recognize her work in putting the legislation together, totally forgetting that she had died in a traffic accident a month before. 

  • He recently discussed his perception that he had spoken with French President, Fransciose Mitterand, at a G7 conference in 2021 even though Mitterand had died over twenty years previously.

  • He claimed that he had  met the discoverer of insulin, Frederick Banting, even though Mr. Banting had died twenty months before Biden was born.

This is the leader of the free world, a man who has access to our nuclear arsenal launch codes, and yet he is so out of touch with reality that he actually forgets people have died or thinks that he has spoken to people when they were no longer alive.

And less than a week after he claimed to have spoken to Mitterand twenty plus years after Mitterand had passed away, Biden claimed that he had spoken to former German chancellor, Helmut Kohl, about the 2020 election. Unfortunately, Kohl had died in 2017, three years before the 2020 election occurred.


Whatever the cause of these misconceptions and/or delusions, being the President of the United States and being delusional is not a good combination. And we do not blame Biden, he has no control  over his declining cognitive state. The real  people to blame are his wife,  his family, and his political  handlers who are all guilty of elder abuse for putting him through the stress of an election and the stress of being President. 


Not only does he suffer but the nation suffers also, given his reduced mental  ability to remember details, reality, and  discussions, and his inability to formulate answers to the country’s issues.


3)We have often discussed the corruption of the Biden criminal syndicate. Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, sells his inferior artwork to people that eventually get high paying government positions. Foreign entities funnel wealth to various Biden family members via dozens of shell companies. A foreigner gives Hunter Biden over 4142,000 toi purchase a high end, high performance sports car.

And now another potential Biden family criminal activity has come to light:


  • James Biden is Joe Biden’s brother.

  • In recent Congressional testimony, U.S. Trustee, Carol Fox, discussed James Biden's relationship to a financially strapped healthcare company, Americore.

  • James Biden is alleged to have  received over $600,000 in loans from Americore.

  • Fox’s investigation could not identify exactly what James Biden or his company did for Americore or why the company loaned him $600,000 in two payments, $400,000 and $200,000.

  • On the same day that he received the $200,000 loan, he sent a $200,000 check to Joe Biden which was labeled as a “loan repayment.”

  • Fox could not identify or find any documentation about what the loans were about or what the terms were. 

  • Thus, information like collateral for the loans, the stated loan interest rate, or what the repayment terms were on these loans were never  found.

  • Fox stated in her testimony that the $200,000 payment from James Biden to Joe Biden likely “pointed to a fraudulent transfer.”

  • But it gets worse in that Fox said James Biden also received $10,000 from Americore in June, 2018 for alleged consulting but Fox never found any documentation of what the consulting and/or marketing agreement was payment for.

  • Fox also claimed that James Biden promised to use his last name and connection to Joe Biden to “open doors'” for Americore and get the company a large investment from the Middle East.


If Fox’s investigation  and accusations are true, it  is just another aspect of the Biden criminal syndicate, selling favors and influence, activities that enriched the Biden family and had no impact on the issues facing Americans. Sad set of priorities.


4)There can be no doubt that Biden’s immigration policies and attitude have  been  a national disaster. He has allowed millions of un-vaccinated, un-vetted, and possible terror elements to march into this country without a problem. His lax border policies have allowed massive amounts of illegal and fatal drugs to  hit American streets. Crime and the straining of government resources to handle the feeding, housing and servicing of millions of illegal immigrants have robbed the American taxpayer of the government services they have paid for.


Which gets to a very basic Biden failure and a very basic tenet of any government entity: the primary purpose of any government entity is to protect the lives and property of the citizens it serves. In this respect, Biden has been a failure. And this failure could get much more dangerous:


  • Richard Jones is the head sheriff in Butler County, Ohio.

  • At a recent National Sheriffs Association Conference in DC,  FBI Director Christopher Wray discussed the heightened threat of multiple terror attacks within our country in the near future as a result of illegal immigrants coming into the country under Biden’s regime.

  • According to Sheriff Jones: “They’re here not to be our friends. Some of them are coming because they’re wanting to come here to the best country in the world. The way we see, some are coming here to do harm to us. And we were told by the FBI director, it’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when.”

  • Jones said he was told by Federal officials of the Biden administration that the increased threat in potential terrorist activity was comparable to the 9-11 attacks.


It is probably going to happen and it is probably going to be very bad and it is just another fatal consequence of Biden’s failed and impotent border policies.


Enough insanity for today: Biden’s losing his sense of reality, he has lost control of the border, and Americans will continue paying the price in many, unpleasant and possibly fatal ways.

November, 2023, Part 3, Political Class Insanity: San Francisco's Slow Demise, Biden Cashes Out Again, Biden's Poll Numbers Slide, and Congress Again Shows Its Ignorance

 Every month we devote posts to just general political class insanity that is running rampant through the country. The members of the American political class continue to show that they are incapable of operating any level of government in this country. 


Even their best efforts are almost always inefficient and ineffective at resolving any problem facing Americans. They spend a great amount of time not trying to improve the lives of their citizens but continually ensuring their reelection and enriching themselves, their families, and their friends in the process, all at taxpayer expense.


1)We have often  discussed the reality that San Francisco is a dying city. Homelessness, drug addiction, public defecation and urination, skyrocketing crime, high taxes, thousands of workers never coming back to downtown office buildings after the pandemic, a shrinking tax base, etc. Not a pretty picture.


One of the big problems the city has had is that retail stores are closing their city locations for a number of reasons, not the least of which is retail shoplifting gangs. The idiots down at town hall decided to pass a law a few years ago that said unless you are stealing merchandise worth at least $900 or so, no big deal, no crime, no harm.


As a result, organized retail shoplifting gangs have come into being knowing that petty shoplifters will never be arrested or prosecuted. As a result stores are closed because they cannot make a profit when merchandise is constantly being looted. And now it is not just retail stores that are abandoning the city:


  • At least 20 bank branches have recently closed in the city.

  • This is more closed than the past two years combined.

  • It is the most closures in a year since 2000.

  • The closing of retail stores in the city and just fewer workers coming into the city are cited as reasons for the closings.


On one hand, you have to feel sorry for the residents of the city. Life is getting more and more complicated and inconvenient for them as the policies and laws passed by city politicians  have resulted in fewer and more inconvenient shopping and banking locations. On the other hand, vote stupid politicians into office, get stupid results. 


2) We could probably write multiple posts a day just trying to keep up with the corruption and payoffs of Joe Biden and his family and friends. From Russia to Ukraine to China to who knows where else, Biden has made his family and friends very wealthy.


But let’s just give a taste of Biden’s corruption:


  • Biden has consistently claimed that his family and himself never got money and rewards from foreign influence peddling.

  • According to the House Oversight Committee Chairman, James Comer, he has bank records to prove Biden lied again regarding getting cash from  Chinese interests.

  • Apparently, bank records show that Chinese money was sent to Biden’s brother, James Biden and sister-in-law Sara Biden.

  • This money ties into a Hunter Biden message from his infamous laptop where he threatened Chinese clients to pay up because his father, at that time the Vice President, was sitting next to him.

  • A personal check for the $40,000 was then to Joe Biden who cashed the check.

  • According to Comer: "It all began with a shakedown in the summer of 2017, when Hunter Biden sent a message to his CEFC associate demanding a $10 million capital payment. As Hunter Biden extorted this associate, Hunter claimed he was sitting with his father and that the Biden network would turn on his associate if he didn't pony up the money. The extortion scheme worked."

  • The flow went as follows: Northern International Capital, which has ties to a company called CEFC which in turn was linked to the Chinese Communist Party, sent $5 million to a Hunter Biden company which then sent $400,000 to another Hunter Biden company, Owasco P.C.,  which then wired $150,000 to Lion Hall Group, a James and Sara Biden company, from which Sara withdrew $50,000 which she deposited in her personal account, and they then sent a check for $40,000 to Joe Biden.

  • Comer continued: "In taking funds sourced to a CCP-linked company that wanted to advance China's interests, Joe Biden exposed himself to future blackmail and put America's interests behind his own desire for money. The House Oversight Committee will continue to follow the money and will hold President Biden accountable for his corruption."


Unbelievable, so much effort being put forth to enrich himself and his family and friends while Americans go hungry, homeless, and in need of medical attention. Just another example of Washington's and Joe Biden’s despicable priorities.


3)And while Biden has and has always had despicable priorities and failed policies, maybe America is finally wising up to his ineptness and corruption:


  • A recent Gallup poll saw that Biden’s approval rating within the Democratic base dropped an amazing 11 points in just one month.

  • He also experienced a 4 point drop among independent voters with his approval rating with them hovering at an anemic 35%.

  • His overall approval rating among all voters dropped 4 points in a single month, coming in at anemic 37%.

  • His approval rating among Republicans is a minuscule 5%.

  • This overall approval rating matches the lowest point yet in his Presidency.


Really, really bad polling numbers. But consider this:


  • Millions of Americans are homeless, hungry, or in need of medical or drug addiction treatment.

  • Crime is skyrocketing in many Democratically controlled cities.

  • Inflation is wreaking havoc with lower and middle class families.

  • Food, utilities, and gas prices are just a few of the necessities of life that cost so much  more than when Biden took over.

  • Biden’s budgeting plans will add well  over two trillion dollars to the national  debt.

  • He has no plan and has made no effort to bring peace to the Ukraine/Russia war while sending well over $100 billion of American taxpayer money down the drain in that war.

  • He has no plan to stem the violence and hate in the Middle East.

  • His immigration policies have flooded this country with millions of un-vetted and un-vaccinated illegal immigrants, tons and tons of illegal drugs that will end up killing thousands and thousands of Americans, organized crime elements from Central and South America, ordinary criminal elements, terrorists, etc.


Just one horrible Presidential administration whose failures raise the following philosophical  question: Given Biden’s failed administration, why do 37% of Americans STILL approve of his performance? And why do they approve of his performance given the above list of disasters?


4)It has always been our conclusion that the people serving in Congress very, very often have no clue about life or how to make the country a better place, given their ignorance on so many levels:


  • A Georgia Congressman once fretted in a public Congressional hearing that the island of Guam could actually tip over if too many armed forces resources were stationed on the island.

  • 35 years after the war in Vietnam ended, a Texas Congresswoman asserted that both South and North Vietnam still existed and that the government in  North Vietnam was taking care of the citizens of South Vietnam.

  • A New York Congresswoman, who has a business degree from a reputable university, asserted that the reason that unemployment was so  low during the Trump administration was because many people had to hold down two jobs which suppressed the unemployment rate, a completely ignorant and incorrect understanding of how the unemployment rate is calculated despite her college background in business.

  • That same Congresswoman was captured on video claiming that our country had three branches of government: the Presidency, the House of Representatives, and the Senate. Apparently she forgot about the Supreme Court and had no very basic idea of how our country’s government is structured despite being a member of Congress.


And the Congressional stupidity marches on. Consider:


  • Congresswoman Cori Bush is the latest member of Congress to show her ignorance.

  • She was recently ranting about how the wealthy in this country need to be taxed at higher rates.

  • She falsely claimed that today, poor, middle class, and wealthy Americans are all taxed at the same rate which is plainly wrong.

  • The higher one’s income, the higher the effective income tax is for that individual.

  • When confronted with this simple reality by a reporter she stuttered, stumbled, and embarrassed herself with a non-reply to this reality and her ignorance.

  • Specifically, Bush stated: “If a third of my money is going to taxes, then I think a third of their [the very rich] money should be going to taxes.” 


Nothing could be  further from the truth. Many low income people pay nothing in Federal income taxes, given the current tax code, not a “third.” The marginal tax  rates go up as one earns more money, e.g. people who earn between $11,001 to $44,725 have a marginal tax rate of 12% while people who earn over $578,126 have the excess over that amount taxed at 37%.


These are the types of people who are running the country: they think islands can actually tip over, they have no clue on foreign affairs and reality, they have no clue what the definition of employment is, they do not know the basic structure of our government, and do not know the very, very basic facts about our income tax code.


Her ignorance can  be seen  in the following video clip:

That will  do it for today: San  Francisco slowly fades into oblivion, Biden continues to cash out on his government position, Biden continues to slip in the polls, and ignorance and stupidity continue to rule in Congress.
