Civility has long been removed from the current Fascist Democrats running their political operations. During a somber Texas press briefing today, Governor Greg Abbott was informing the public on the latest information about the Uvalde school shooting.Former failed senate candidate, and current democrat political candidate to challenge Abbott, Beto O’Rourke, having previously planned and informed the media of his intent, pulled a political stunt by interrupting the press briefing in order to make political statement advocating for a ban on firearms. {Direct Rumble Link} VIDEO:

In the annals of manufactured scandals by TV networks, one of the lamest examples was Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ telling high school students at an event of his: “You do not have to wear those masks. I mean, please take them off. Honestly, it’s not doing anything, and we’ve got to stop this COVID theater.” “NBC Nightly News” tried to make this a story for not just one night, but two. It’s lame because it came after everyone took off their masks for the State of the Union address, after the “nonpartisan” Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ruled against...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Wednesday confused the nation of Ukraine with Hungary while lecturing Russian President Vladimir Putin for escalating the ongoing conflict with Ukraine. “If you look at the map and you see Hungary and you see how it is encircled,” Pelosi said while speaking about the geography of eastern Europe and Russian maneuvering in the region, the Republican National Committee’s research team tweeted:

CNN's John Harwood is a shameless Biden sycophant. Harwood was back on New Day Friday morning. And predictably, he defended Biden's pitiful press conference performance. Harwood's shameless sycophancy was on display in the screencap: "Harwood: Pundits Got Biden's News Conference Wrong." In particular, Harwood justified Biden having questioned the legitimacy of the midterm elections, and his comment that a "minor incursion" into Ukraine ordered by Putin might not merit a full-blown US response.Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

James Joyce’s Ulysses was first published in 1922, just over two weeks after the British handed over the keys of Dublin Castle to Michael Collins and his new Irish government. The other great literary event of that year was TS Eliot’s The Waste Land. Joyce’s novel had much in common with Eliot’s long poem — it dealt with the rawness of urban life using competing narrative forms, including pastiche and myth and different kinds of voices. The Waste Land sounded a sort of death knell for the narrative poem, just as Ulysses set about killing off the single-perspective, the all-knowing...

Joe Biden campaigned as a moderate elder statesman who could help heal a divided country. The press played up the narrative that Biden put in place a team of professionals and technocrats who would provide real governing expertise as a salve from the chaos of the Trump years. The truth, of course, has been just the opposite. Many Americans are coming to believe that, contrary to the expectations going in, the Biden administration is a rudderless, leaderless, overly ideological mess. Biden did not help himself at his rare press conference Wednesday. When challenged on America's declining faith in the competence...

President Joe Biden will hold a rare solo press conference on Wednesday evening, the day before his one-year annivesary in office, where he is expected to defend his tenure in the White House and preview his plans for the next three years. He will also likely face questions on the issues of the day - voting rights, his Build Back Better bill, his declining approval rating, Russia and the Ukraine, inflation and the Omicron variant of COVID. His last solo press conference in the White House was in March and his last formal press conference was in October, when he...

Three aging Air Force veterans came to Washington, D.C., on Tuesday to again tell their strange and extraordinary stories. A fourth veteran was piped into the National Press Club conference by video feed from the Ozark Mountains in Missouri. Each veteran's story is different, but all share one central claim: In the 1960s, UFOs tampered with nuclear weapons managed by the Air Force, both terrifying and mystifying the airmen who experienced the encounters. Some remained silent for decades, they say. And none has captured the attention of Washington, even as reports of Navy encounters with unknown flying objects have splashed...

President Biden address(es) the nation on the situation in Afghanistan as well as the administration’s response to Hurricane Henri.

President Biden took questions from a room full of reporters Friday for the first time since the Taliban's lightning-fast takeover of Kabul, but at times the 78-year-old commander-in-chief flubbed his words and offered a series of chaotic contradictions. Here are the seven contentious moments from the president's news conference: Biden proclaims al-Qaeda is 'gone' in Afghanistan, in direct contradiction with the Pentagon's assessment -snip- Biden says he has seen 'no indication' Americans have had a tough time getting to the airport, but American journalists on the ground say otherwise -snip- 'The first part of your question was — I can't...

This is frightening. Imagine if President Trump had done this? https://twitter.com/stillgray/status/1413228649805873153

The White House on Monday blocked President Joe Biden from speaking with reporters about a signature administration effort on entitlements. The Biden administration kicked off a messaging push to promote the child tax credit, but Biden was not scheduled to speak to reporters. Families will begin receiving monthly payments in their bank accounts of $250 or more per child beginning in July, a massive entitlement program that comes as part of Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus rescue plan. Biden was not part of the White House’s number one messaging strategy of the day. His daily schedule for Monday only featured a...

New York State transportation officials gathered at an Adirondack Northway rest area this morning to remind motorists of the dangers of highway work zones ahead of the busy travel holiday weekend. The site of the press conference was the Clifton Park rest area near Exit 9 on the Northway, not far from where a southbound truck last month struck a bridge on Sitterly Road. With a busy summer travel season predicted as the pandemic winds down, officials want to get the word out about work zone safety. You might guess that during the pandemic, with fewer commuters on the roads,...

Pravda Press – The difference between a New York Times reader and a Russian reading Pravda is that the Russian knows he is being lied to. Softball questions from the compliant media allowed Biden to read, without looking up, from pre-printed note cards. He chose reliable, liberal reporters (partisan activists) from a pre-selected list. The worst question came from NPR’s pandering Yamiche Alcindor who attempted to explain away what is tracking to be the worst southern border migrant surge in 20 years because Biden is a moral and decent man. Proving once again that the mainstream media is the propaganda...

Not a single reporter questioned President Joe Biden during his first solo press conference for the administration's flip-flopping on its massive tax hike proposal. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said during a March 17 press briefing that “families” with household incomes totaling over $400,000 will see their taxes increase. The statement contradicted Biden’s indication that individuals — not families — would see taxes increased during an interview with ABC News that aired the same day: “Yes, anybody making more than $400,000 will see a small to a significant tax increase. If you make less than $400,000, you won’t see...

div class="article_body">From the very first moment of Biden’s first press conference, one could tell that the days of Trump press conferences were gone. You remember those days, don’t you? Gotcha questions, lectures, fights, interruptions, blatant disrespect – not from Trump, but from the media. It was they who created a sense of chaos and divisiveness, not Trump. It was very different this time. The media were on their best behavior but even they couldn’t protect Biden from himself. Other posts here address more substantive issues raised in the press conference. This is just about style points for both Biden and...

New photos reveal several cheat sheets used by President Joe Biden during his Thursday press conference — including one with the headshots and names of reporters he planned to call on. The president also used notes to assist with facts about US infrastructure, a policy area Biden is focusing on during his first months in the White House. “The United States now ranks 13th globally in infrastructure quality — down from 5th place in 2002,” read one bullet point. But despite having the answers in front of him, Biden still slipped up, saying America ranked 85th in the world in...
