Did The New York Times Admit Biden Is Corrupt So Democrats Can Get Rid Of Him?
2022-03-24
[Federalist] Joe Biden is no longer useful to the ruling class.

It is painfully obvious, as was predictable, that Joe Biden’s presidency is a dumpster fire. As demonstrated by the party’s destructive callousness towards children, the elderly, and the poor during their Covid lockdown frenzy, Democrats care about none of these real-world results of their policies. But they do care about polling, and Joe Biden’s is abysmal.

According to even heavily politicized polls, Biden is at least performing as badly as Donald Trump. Biden is between the third- and fifth-most ratings-underwater president ever in American history at this point in his first term.

Biden of course also has the advantage of a wildly favorable press and social media monopoly while Trump had the strong headwind of a wildly negative one. That factor obscured for a great many of American voters actions that easily demonstrated long before his election that Biden was unfit for the presidency.

Now that he’s president, however, and very publicly bungling essentially every major issue all the way up to U.S. national security, Biden’s weakness and incompetence have been impossible for the corrupt media to entirely cover up. Biden’s appalling withdrawal from Afghanistan may have been the first major blow to public confidence in his governing ability, and it’s been followed by blow after blow: the repercussions of ending U.S. energy independence, historic inflation caused by massive government spending, aggression by America’s foreign foes, a tacitly open border with human trafficking of historic proportions, not to mention fueling America’s legalized mass killings of unborn infants and forcing schools to inflict gender dysphoria on the children in their care.

So yes, the polls look bad. That’s why Democrat officials suddenly switched away from their Covid mania, lifting mask mandates in blue states, ending the daily falsified “body counts” on TVs and newspapers, and jumping immediately into European war hysteria. But that’s not been enough to turn those polls around. Historic indicators presently suggest a “red wave” in the upcoming midterms.

That brings us to The New York Times’s recent “limited hangout“: its highly suspicious, very late acknowledgment that, hey, that laptop containing evidence that Joe Biden is just as corrupt as his son Hunter Biden told Russian prostitutes — that laptop is real, and so is its data. Yes, the United States’s top foreign adversaries likely have blackmail material on the U.S. president, and likely paid him some very big bribes.

Oh, and yes Twitter and Facebook did use their global communications monopolies to rig the election for Joe Biden by hiding this information (and who knows what else).

Why would The New York Times do this — and Facebook and Twitter not ban this information release just like they did before? Well, one explanation is hierarchy reinforcement. As I wrote Monday, like forcing their “minions” to wear face masks, the ridiculously belated laptop confirmation also equals the ruling class “flexing their power to say things they won’t allow their political opponents to say.”

There’s another explanation, though. It’s that Joe Biden is no longer useful to the ruling class. After being used to win an election, he’s now making it impossible for them to credibly foist on Americans the idea that his party could win another one with him on their masthead. The donkey is showing through the lion skin, and so they need a new donkey.

#27  I understand the April update will have Ivan Drago as Pickett; gonna be lit.

OT/watched Red Cliff recently because it was handier than searching for the DVD. There were parts I don't remember and I was like, "Sure, long movie, directer's cut." Then there was the scene where Fan Man had to harvest 60,000 arrows or whatever under penalty of death, which made Team Sun kind of sketchy...maybe I missed that part, because it sure watched like the sketchy, which I thought was an excellent part of the story, was edited out. The movie Moose was absolutely Cloud Edited.

#23  Brahmins fancy themselves 'white'
Harris is a half-Brahmin. Like many Indian expatriates in the Caribbean her mum was eager to avoid the taint of being viewed as black.

#20  why did the bitch want to be given Scandinavia?

The Scandis are European White People which makes them nicer and better than American White People, all of whom fought for the Confederacy in the War Between the States.

#18  This is like picking up a periodical in the grocery store check out line next to the gum. Maybe they will replace Harris with Snookie. Not sure how old she is. Pro tip - if you shake hands with Snookie in the receiving line, go hard on the post-shake Purell.

#9  #6 Hillary is president

Then Hillary brings in Victoria Nudelman to prepare another coup, in Moscow.. which will end like Hillary and Nudelman's grand adventure in Benghazi. Only this time the regime will not fall but will launch nuclear missile attacks on the US

Remember they got rid of Agnew first before they went for Nixon. We'll find out from Deep State who they want to put in place.

#6  Harris resigns to pursue other interests. Biden appoints Hillary as VP. Biden resigns, citing ill health. Hillary is president. Establishment goes full-on censorship and repression, massive voter fraud in 2024, Hillary elected, and American democracy sunsets in favor of open oligarchy.

#5  Harris will be dealt with first. Expect a Ron Brown sort of retirement for her. That will be the sign that Joe is on the way out. The only question will be whether he resigns quietly or "Dr." Jill puts up an ugly fight.

#4  At the EOD, Tulsi is a Bernie lover and a disciple of Klaus Schwab....but with some brain matter.

One way or another, Biden does not finish 2022 as president. Talk is cheap. But President Harris? Please, dear gawd, no.
