Biden Slurs His Way Through a Shpeech About Funding His Paymaters In Ukraine
Update: At Fundraiser, Biden Accidentally Reads Aloud the Scripted Stage Directions
He immediately signed the bill into law, then let his Ukranian masters know that the Biden Brand is all about prompt service.
Joe Biden delivered remarks on Wednesday on Iran and Israel, and the passage of the bill that gives supplemental aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. Of course, because it's Joe Biden, most of the comments centered around his priority -- Ukraine. Incredibly, he claims we're "investing in our own industrial base" by giving our stores away to Ukraine because we have to replenish it. We wouldn't have to spend that amount if he didn't give our stores away. Biden claimed they were trying to surge aid now so as not to drag the U.S. into a war in the future if Putin attacked a NATO country. But we are already involved in this war, with a seemingly endless supply of money/weapons going out to Ukraine, with no goal set that would signify the end of our involvement. He noted the bill was also sending aid to Israel. Even with the teleprompter, he had difficulty, slurring and dropping words in what he had to say. He tripped all over himself, trying to talk about the allies who helped against the Iran attack.He is senile:

What was in the script, I believe, was (four more years pause). In other words, they scripted the crowd to "spontaneously burst into a four more years chant," and wanted Biden to pause for it to let them read their scripted lines.
But he just read it out loud.

Biden routinely reads out his stage directions. I am sure they've tried to deal with this - different colors, different fonts, etc. - and it just doesn't work.
He has enough of his brain left to be able to read (usually), but that's about the extent of what he can do.

Not really true about Russia anymore. Essentially China (electronics etc.), Iran (drones), and the North Koreans (artillery shells) are propping up the Russian military machine. Russia essentially is trading oil and other goodies for it.
China and to some extent Iran and the Norks actually have their economies able to support their own military actions.

Incredibly, he claims we're "investing in our own industrial base"
Investing never involves forcibly taking money away from productive people and enterprises, shaving off a percent for an industry tied to the government, and generating no return from it.

It's incredible -- and incredibly nauseating -- that our President reads stage directions off the teleprompter as part of the actual text. In the clip above, the teleprompter says "pause" -- as in pause for applause -- and this senile fucking retard literally says "pause" out loud as part of the speech. A kindergarten kid would know better.
Plus, I'll guarantee you that the teleprompter guys put all kinds of flags and notices around the stage directions to make it clear that he's not supposed to actually say them out loud -- he's done that so much in the past -- and yet this fartclam jelly-brain still can't figure it out.

Doesn't matter that he draws only dozens for his rallies, same as last time.

He is destroying and dividing our country. He has ruined us economically and undermined the rule of law. He has weaponized the courts and justice system against his political opponents. He has ignored the constitution and court rulings. He's overseeing a deliberate invasion of our borders and allowing criminal elements to roam across our communities without consequences. He's destroyed our schools, attacking our children and corrupting their moral values.
This reads like a remake of the original grievance against King George.

The rot and corruption in the system is far broader than Biden's junta. It is most of the GOP as well as demonstrated by the recent FISA fiasco and the casting vast amounts of money we do not have but refusing to spend one nickel on ending the waves of illegals and massive amounts of drugs flooding the US.

Friedman asked why they wouldn’t just use a couple of backhoes instead. The CCP guy said this way we can employee 100’s instead of just a few.
Friedman replied ‘ why then don’t you just use spoons to dig?’

Part of me wants to see him drop dead right before the cameras in one of these, but then in the chaos that would follow, the dems might make moves to take out Trump for sure. Like a call from Obama to his CIA hitmen.

While Biden slurred his way through his comments, Speaker Johnson had an incredible moment of his own.
In a frantic effort to find someone he could beat up, the Very Weak Speaker criticized the President of Columbia University. As "Weak".

What the fuck is the President of the United States doing with the flag of another fucking country on his lapel?? It's bad enough we're flushing tens of billions of dollars down the shitter to that corrupt shithole of a country for no reason at all other than graft and money laundering. But to actually were their flag too?? It's like they're deliberately rubbing our noses in it.

i saw somewhere this morning, probably fox or fox biz, that biden wants free community college and it wouldn't cost the tax payers anything. wish i could find an actual quote, but apparently sending people to comm college would increase their earnings and they'd pay more taxes on a higher income, so it would cost the taxpayers something. probably a lot, as it would very likely almost be a fedl takeover of the comm college system.
listening to biden almost makes my brain hurt.

Plus, I'll guarantee you that the teleprompter guys put all kinds of flags and notices around the stage directions to make it clear that he's not supposed to actually say them out loud -- he's done that so much in the past -- and yet this fartclam jelly-brain still can't figure it out.
----
That's on top of how they have a strict embargo on any photos of the teleprompter.
Last one I saw, it was a giant column hiding a screen the size of an old 1980's "big screen" TV.
Because the teleprompter you know is those little plates of glass to the left and right.
The font size now required is so big, single word per line is all that fits.
This is also why he messes up more and more-- there's even a limit to his setup, so anything longer than one sentence gets botched.
While Trump is out there daily speaking off-the-cuff with no errors.

Forgive me for being stupid. But wouldn't it just make more sense to give the money straight to the manufacturers? And then (I know this is against our principles) sell it to the countries who want it?

The Party has absolute control of the government, yes, but nobody has absolute control of the Party right now. It's all factional warfare all the way down. Powerful Politburo members have their own power networks, intelligence sources, areas of influence, etc.
It's one of the reasons our policies are increasingly insane. The US takes action against and for Red China, and does so at the same time. Ditto Israel. Etc. Nobody is in charge. It's rule-by-committee and the committee members have their own interests and ambitions.
Like in the USSR, this will end and we'll get consistent policy again once a new Dear Leader with ability to crack skulls in a serious way rises up. We have a Chernenko right now, with similar results. Eventually, we'll get a Khrushchev and things will stabilize. If we're lucky, we'll get a Gorbachev who pushes on the wrong supports and the wheels will come off altogether until the state fails due to the accumulated rot.

Not really true about Russia anymore. Essentially China (electronics etc.), Iran (drones), and the North Koreans (artillery shells) are propping up the Russian military machine. Russia essentially is trading oil and other goodies for it.

Posted by: whig at April 24, 2024 01:43 PM (cViPl)
Yeah, those silly Russians are only able to produce 1 million plus 152mm artillery rounds per year. The reason why they went to the NORKs, because they were firing north of 100K rounds of 152mm on a monthly basis. They traded the NORKs some oil and possibly hypersonic missile tech for artillery rounds. The Ukies can't even counter battery fire anymore, they have winchestered on artillery rounds of various flavors. From reports I've read, the FUSA can produce about 100K 155mm artillery rounds per year. This $65 billion is to keep the Ukie government afloat, and possibly coke-head Zelensky alive, for the time being.

Read that our arms manufacturers are working overtime and that the materiel we are sending 'over there', a lot of it, is junk, old, or well worn. - Not defending the war but us getting new equipment is not a bad thing. Sometimes the left creates a consequence that is to our benefit.
It would be nice to hear that (and other valid an debatable point) from lawmakers and such instead of accusations of treason, you know?
We never get any actual arguments, and only Putin's lackeys would object.

Posted by: Blackpilled Steve
Media coverage is a bit idiotic. Right now, the GOP has 218 members and the Dems are down to 212 after the death. 5 vacancies with three GOP and two Dems empty seats via resignation and death. All three of the GOP vacancies (other than Gallagher who has not resigned yet apparently) are due to be filled by special elections in the next two months or so and most likely holds by the GOP. Ditto for the NY Dem seat that is vacant and the NJ seat but dunno when those special elections will be held which depends on state law.

All three of the GOP vacancies (other than Gallagher who has not resigned yet apparently) are due to be filled by special elections in the next two months or so and most likely holds by the GOP. Ditto for the NY Dem seat that is vacant and the NJ seat but dunno when those special elections will be held which depends on state law.

Kristol: Congress Pokes Trump, Putin in Eye. Only months ago, congressional Republicans, in a fit of pique spurred by Donald Trump, killed a nearly identical aid package that also contained a number of border security measures.
...a (slight) majority of all Congressional Republicans voted for aid to Ukraine. Most Republican members of Congress took a position on a very important issue against their presidential nominee. That is unusual in American politics. So the GOP is still Trump’s party. But it’s somewhat less so than it was before this week.
Trump hasn’t budged in any fundamental way from the anti-Ukraine, pro-Putin, and anti-NATO stance that he’s embraced for years. So the congressional vote couldn’t help but be a statement of independence from Trump.
If he is to have a chance to win, Trump depends on holding the support of normal Republicans...there’s a different type of undecided voter in play as well...a conflicted and cross-pressured voter.
Call them Nikki Haley voters.
Yesterday in Pennsylvania, 156,000 Republicans voted for Nikki Haley. That’s over 16 percent of the Republicans who voted. That is a lot of Republican voters against Trump.

FWIW and I don't mean this as anything but a discussion point, I think you are over complicating it a little.
The media is too single-voiced to be controlled by any number of factions at war. If major splinter groups were in some huge war, we would know it through vicious battles in media. No one is more vile or power thirsty or open about it than the Left.
As it is 97% of media outlets spew the exact same narrative 24/7. It's too on message for this yuge battle you speak of to be meaningful.

It's like how Citibank's Chuck Prince put it in the lead-up to the financial crisis:
When the music stops, in terms of liquidity, things will be complicated. But as long as the music is playing, you’ve got to get up and dance. We’re still dancing.
Chuck Prince knew that the game would only end one way, but he also knew that the game couldn't be changed one either plays or he doesn't. Prince chose to keep playing - that is, "keep dancing" in his parlance - and could do nothing but keep speeding up.
I strongly suspect that there are many more Chuck Princes than there appear to be.

There are some. Most of the stuff the Party does doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. But where there are factional disagreements, you do see it in the press and this happens in the same way it did in the USSR.
They had two papers - Pravda ("Truth," the Party paper) and Izvestia ("News," the State paper). Usually, Pravda and Izvestia agreed. Sometimes, they did not. When they disagreed, you could learn where the conflicts were so long as you read both papers.
It's the same here. We have the WaPo and its orbit (the Party and IC paper) and we have the NYT and its orbit (the State and LE paper). They usually agree. They sometimes don't. Most of the press focuses on neither issues nor disagreements and just disseminates propaganda. What they spread depends on who is charge, but it's rarely in opposition to anyone else's.

Reforms are possible but it will cost the elite about everything they have extracted from the system over the last 70 years or so. So they cannot contemplate losing power in every institution and their financial gains necessary to do it.
The usual path to reform is a strong man via a coup. The alternative path is a bloody civil war or revolution. Both usually end up resetting the clock on a regime but change the underlying rules and incentives for elites for a time.
What people get wrong on the right is that the left in this country seized power in a 2020 coup and have been desperately been trying to consolidate power in a failing system. It was NOT a popular revolution but simply the left seizing power via a vast election cheat in 2020 and its institutions that it controlled along with its uniparty GOP buddies ratifying it.
Nobody is driving this infernal machine. They're all chance riders.

Reforms are possible but it will cost the elite about everything they have extracted from the system over the last 70 years or so. So they cannot contemplate losing power in every institution and their financial gains necessary to do it.

In podcast, Hillary Clinton accuses Trump of wanting to 'imprison his opposition.' At that very moment, Trump was in a courtroom, facing maximum of 136 years in prison at hands of Democratic prosecutor. So: Just who is trying to imprison his opposition?

210 196 I'm no fan of Johnson, but something like 100 (supposedly) Republican Congressmen voted in favor of this abomination. It was wildly popular even in our own party. I'm not sure how even a strong speaker could deny the will of his own party like that. Johnson sucks donkey balls, but the larger GOP party sucks exponentially more.

The Dums always lined up in lockstep behind her. I don't recall her doing anything unpopular with her base. Of course, all she did was promote commie leftwing causes and spend taxpayer money, so of course they were behind her.
The problem with the GOP is that they're all cheap whores. I guarantee you that the 100 GOP shitmongers that voted for this abomination got tons of calls from constituents and others who will be making bank off this foreign "aid" promising nice fat bribes if they voted in favor of it.

Posted by: ...
The left looks at anyone to the right of them as lacking sufficient purity and deserving of death and impoverishment as oppressors. For the left,politics is religious in nature and heretics to their religious tenets must be destroyed so that heaven on earth can be established. Even the 'nice' ones have seething hate underneath it all of any political opposition to their tenets and would kill in a nanosecond if they thought they could get away with it.
That is because the left believes that they are on the side of angels and the correct side of history. It is easier to go back to the politics of the 30 Years War than to use the outmoded left-right model of the French Assembly after the Revolution.

IMHO it's telling that no one's gone on TV to make a serious, persuasion-type speech about it. It's all tweets and glib talking points and suggestions/implications of treason.
