Latrine John-Pissoir Spreads Disinformation About Biden's Degenerated Brain

Happy Tuesday, everyone. Think of Tuesday as "the gateway to Humpday."

Latrine John-Pissoir is now claiming that all videos -- all -- that show Biden freezing or wandering or pooping his pants or trying to sit in invisible chairs are "cheap fakes."

They're not fake in any way, of course. The White House has created this knock-off term "cheap fakes" to rhyme with "deep fakes" to suggest to their audience of literal imbeciles that these videos are CGI fakes.

This is obviously complete disinformation.

The social media monopolies should ban this disinformation.

But no, Latrine John-Pissoir is pushing this disinformation, claiming that the videos are deep fakes, to get their social media allies to ban all videos showing Biden freezing or wandering or tripping or falling.

The text of her "cheap fake" disinformation:

JEAN-PIERRE: Yeah, and I think you all have called this the cheap fakes video. They are "cheap fakes" video, they are done in bad faith, and some of your news organization have been very clear, have stressed that these right-wing critics of the president have a credibility problem because of the fact-checkers, have repeatedly caught them pushing misinformation, disinformation, and so we see this, and this is something coming from your part of the world calling them cheap fakes and misinformation.


Below, a lost old man shouts unintelligible gibberish at the press, but Latrine John-Pissoir wants you to know this is all a "cheap fake."

24 I think this ends the debate over whether the constant video streams of Joey Shitpants shitting himself in public is a net plus or minus for him. If his rug-headed rug-muncher is whining about the videos and trying to ban then, then I think it's safe to say they are a net minus for Joey. That was my take on them as well.

CNN's Enten: We're Watching Historic Numbers Of Black Voters Under 50 Giving Up On Democratic Party

CNN's Harry Enten takes a look at polls showing black voters under 50 defecting from the Democratic Party.

"Look at Black voters under the age of 50. Holy cow, folks," he said. "Joe Biden was up by 80 points among this group back at this point in 2020. Look at where that margin has careened down towards. It's just -- get this -- 37 points. That lead has dropped by more than half."

"I've just never seen anything like this. I'm, like, speechless... We are looking at a historic moment right now where Black voters under the age of 50, who have historically been such a big part of the Democratic coalition, are leaving it in droves."

Kamala doesn't listen and does what she wants.
Joe doesn't listen and does what he wants.

But Joe has no awareness of what is happening, so everyone else in the Deep State can do what they want, too. With Kamala, they are way more likely to get fired if they pull the same stunts b/c she will throw a tirade if someone does something without her knowledge.

Thus, Joe is 1000x better than Kamala for the Deep State.

It's not a good look for a president, but it's not unintelligible in the sense that "he was trying to reply with actual English and couldn't." He was mocking the press. (As we all should, in a different way.)

I think she means that they were deceptively edited, not that they are literally fake. For example, the Democraps were whining that the video of Biden stumbling off from the G7 group, and needing rescue, was edited so that it didn't show the guy off to the right that Biden was wandering towards. The video made it look like Biden was stumbling off to nowhere, when he was -- for some unknown reason -- wandering off towards some guy.

81 Biden could crap his pants on live TV during the debate next week…. With brown leakage on the floor at his feet… and the mophead would still go on about cheap fakes. Oh and the media would collectively be shouting afterwards how FJB dominated the debate.

None of this really matters. Biden will be the nominee in November no matter how pathetic and old he seems and the election will be extremely uncomfortably close because we’re no longer a serious society and because Dems control so much of the vote counting apparatus

The more they talk about these videos -- even if they try to deny them or pretend they are misleading -- the more attention it calls not only to the videos themselves, but to the larger and more dangerous issue of this pants-shitter's mental state in general. I would think a better strategy would be to just ignore the videos completely.

I would think a better strategy would be to just ignore the videos completely.

They would if they could, but I think they've concluded that it's all getting traction now, and if they don't do something, Biden is toast.

it's just constant gaslighting and propaganda. It's designed to make everyone distrust their own senses so that they must rely on The Regime to orient them "properly."

BTW I've never read a real Bizarro comic. The only one I read was his re-introduction as a screwed-up clone in John Byrne's Man of Steel reboot.

Assuming they've decided to ride the Biden train, and I think they have, they want the electorate to believe that everything that's bad, everything they blame Biden for, is just because of his melted brain. Pay no attention to the fact that every Dem in Congress walks in lockstep with Biden. Vote RFK, if you must, but vote Dem for everything else.

167 Also recall the story last year, when Biden was in the UK for some events: while chatting with King Charles and Camilla he ripped a loud fart and was totally oblivious to it. Camilla was reportedly angry and avoided him after that.

As evil as they are, you have to admire their tenacity, ingenuity, and shamelessness. They have an OBVIOUSLY losing hand, but they don't give up, trying increasingly desperate gambits to get a demented, evil half-corpse across the finish line of a national election.

You should have seen the look of utter incredulity I got from someone when I didn't agree that Biden is a devout Catholic and the most decent, least corrupt person in politics. (He was the poorest member of Congress, you see, which means he wasn't taking illicit money. Haha.) This was just a few months ago. He also thought it reflected poorly on evangelicals that they (we) haven't denounced Trump for being accused of being sloppy with Stormy.

There's a generational component to it.

When I was a kid, our neighbor was a WWII vet. I was over at his place (he was very tolerant) and he was grousing about a filter he bought for his Shop-Vac. He showed me the box and said, "it says right here that it 'cleans easily with water' and that's why I bought it, but it doesn't clean easily with water." He was really disappointed about it. I was thinking - all ten years old of me or whatever - "but advertising is always a lie."

Different experiences. In my lifetime, it's all always been a lie. In his, I guess it wasn't always a lie.

Thanks to mRNA technology, they can produce millions of vaccine doses within weeks, all guaranteed to "produce an immune response." Never mind that the immune response is rather random and accompanied by, well, we'll discover which adverse reactions by giving it to children and pregnant women.

The tyranny of public health during Covid was a hodge podge of state, local and federal and ironically spurred a legal reaction (statutes and court cases) that drastically curtailed some of the epidemic era public health powers at each of those levels.

Covid was pretty much a one trick pony and even trying it with new designer viruses runs into Mother Nature--you want the virus more transmissible, then it becomes more harmless. The more harmful the virus released, the less its spread.

The ongoing destruction from the Covids vaxxes is also becoming a major issue. No one other than deranged individuals nowadays are getting the boosters and that suspicion has spread to other vax scrutiny for side effects as well.

Kansas is the first state to start by suing Pfizer for lying about bad effects and other governments will soon pile on for glory and greed.

In the long run, information manipulation only works if the person is deaf, dumb, and blind to reality.

yeah, somewhat. Nukes have a limited target area, so for maximum effect they are normally aimed at high population areas. But that's where the Elite live. If they use nukes on the low-population areas, they wipe out the food supply and contaminate their water sources.

317 Forrest Tucker couldn't sing either. It's a role in which being able to sing is traditionally optional. Ditto for the My Fair Lady male lead.

Clint Eastwood (!) had a singing role in Paint Your Wagon.

"Nathan Detroit" in Guys and Dolls is another optional-sing role. The original actor, Sam Levene, couldn't sing, but he could act his way through the one or two "talk" songs he had.

318 Remember this fact: BIDEN IS 100% A LIAR. His dementia level is another one of his lies. Don't fall for it.

Biden is faking the level of his dementia - it got him out of being prosecuted, and even a poor debate performance will look great compared to his day to day act. That will be all the LIVs need to think he is OK.

He pulled this act in 2020: he acted all addle brained up until the debate, and his performance at the debate was so much better than his day to day act, that he looked fine to people who had only heard he was feeble minded.

Biden is a very clever and evil person - he is the one directing the prosecution of Trump to tie him up and keep him from campaigning. Don't underestimate him. I can pretty much promise you he will NOT be the dopey Joe we've been seeing day to day, at the debates.

I have personally known another lib who did this, in his daily life.

FWIW Mencken was a big-time Ohio football fan, and wrote "It is no small thing to see Bluffton meet Defiance." We used to call that game The Mencken Bowl, but, no more. Later this year Bluffton College will be merged into Defiance. An era ends.

The script, a collaborative effort beween the DNC, the White House, and CNN, is mostly written and is in final edit now, but rehearsals are beginning.

RNA viruses are inherently unstable because the polymerases they use to replicate their genetic material don't have any proofreading abilities (like DNA polymerases do) to identify and correct mismatches. You'll still get them for DNA viruses of course, but the mismatch rate is something like one base out of 10^7 bases replicated vs the mutations that pile up for RNA viruses.

391 336 324 The entire apparatus of the US govt will #resist him, will refuse to carry out his orders, beginning on Inauguration Day. What happens then can't be good.

Reagan and air traffic controllers come to mind. Most of what fed gov does is simply useless and most agency employees would not be missed if fired for cause which includes disobedience.

I would consider firing all active generals and admirals though first thing.

392 The only thing protecting these psychopaths is the threat of incarceration for even the most minor pushback. That's why we have J6 political prisoners. Five years for a 70 something year old abortion protester, a prison sentence for an internet Hillary jokester , prison sentences for congressional subpoena refusal and of course the Trump prosecutions.

Which is why I believe that they project that if Trump wins, he will jail them and be a dictator....things they have done.

395 I just rewatched "The Music Man" with Robert Preston He really wasn't a singer but his audition with "Trouble In River City" won him the role because he was a darned good actor.
Posted by: FenelonSpoke

Preston was an excellent choice for Harold Hill, but the cast member who propelled "The Music Man" to fame and glory was Shirley Jones.

Preston originated the role on Broadway, so he WAS Professor Hill. Barbara Cook played Marion.

396 Well said, whig, as usual, but I respectfully disagree. The New Flu, bird borne, will be more lethal and the impact will be broader… designed to overcome Vaxx hesitance on the part of the populace. Kill people, kill animals, damage economy… what the new Vaxx carries, God only knows… yes, they are that evil, and power mad.

I appreciate the thought. But science - real science - disagrees with you. Because if what you suggest were true it means wiping out the human race because no vaccine would help you.
