The two Deep State coups of Barack Obama.
He’s been sitting there in his Kalorama mansion, pulling the strings, for eight years.

Literally Dodging A Bullet
It’s amazing how lucky we are that he had his head turned that way, and was scratched instead of killed like Kennedy. What chaos that would have been. Imagine the Republican convention tomorrow, when he hasn’t even named his heir in announcing his pick for VP, and no one claims to know who it is other than him. Who would be the leader of the party? Who would rise? I’d guess it would have to be Speaker Johnson. He is, after all, currently third in line for the presidency. But would he pick up the chalice, or simply supervise the process of choosing?
Will The Left Respect Democracy If Trump Wins?
When they say “democracy,” they mean Democrats rule. Anything else (like restoring the Republic) is the destruction of “our democracy.”
How The Media Will Cover Kamala
By calling us racist and sexist for criticizing her, natch, including the Wall Street Journal.
National Rent Control?
Top be fair, this isn’t any more economically idiotic than a federal minimum wage. So naturally, puddin’ brain is all in.
The Coverup
It’s not possible to hate these awful people enough.

“Well, anyway.”
As noted, the Democrats have given Republicans many great campaign quotes on Biden’s unfitness. They can’t unwrite and unsay them. And I love the look on poor Meloni’s face when Biden calls Zelensky “Putin.”
BTW, if you want to get completely snockered in a Biden speech, take a swig at every “Look,” and “Anyway.” They’re verbal ticks that he can’t avoid when he doesn’t know what to say next, or when his train of thought derails.

“Our Brezhnev, our Pravda, our Soviet Union.”
[Afternoon update]
I sure wish this didn’t sound completely plausible.
I just hung up with my friend who works in D.C. The guy who has nailed everything and given me inside scoops for months that have led to viral tweets, correct predictions and he has not been wrong yet. Not sure if I should post this, but:

Jill Biden is running the country right…

The Falcon Failure

I can obviously understand the need for an investigation, and if SpaceX wants to do it with the FAA, that’s fine, but the FAA should have no say in when it flies again; that would be them doing mission assurance, which is not part of their charter. NASA, Jared Isaacman, or any of SpaceX’s other customers can decide when and whether they trust the vehicle, but FAA advisement should be just that. There was no public danger from this event (other than potential Starlink debris falling to earth), or reason to think there would be from any future similar failure.
The Latest SpaceX “Scandal”
Too much “bro” culture?
If true, this story reminds me of Lincoln's remark when told that Grant drank too much. "Find out his brand of whiskey, and send a case to all of my generals." But it did say they joked about it, not necessarily that they did it. https://t.co/nkequTPnM2

“A Good Man”
The BS about Biden is thoroughly deconstructed.
[Wednesday-morning update]
Now they take on the BS about Biden’s “accomplishments.”
He’s been a disaster.

[Thursday-morning update]
John Podhoretz makes the case for schadenfreude. It’s pretty compelling. This couldn’t happen to a more awful political party, at least in this country.

[Update a few minutes later]
This is hilarious. As Gutfeld said yesterday, it’s like the Biden family is holding the Democrats hostage, and the media is negotiating. “He wants an In’n’Out! He wants to talk to his daughter. He’ll only talk to Clooney.”

Are we ready for the problems it could cause?
Oh, please.
