Biden Mumbles, Wanders About During Morehouse Graduation Address

In one of the classic examples of Biden’s odd behavior, Biden finds his way to Morehouse College to try to shill for some votes. His steady decline is apparent as he wanders around on the stage with his helpers far from his side. However, he was coherent enough to give the usual black pablum the Democrats are noted that comes around every four years during election time. This time however, the Dems have new BFFs coming in to America via the “asylum” route. How will it play this time around is the question.

Biden notes that students there have to “be 10 times better than anybody else just to get a fair shot” and that Republicans are not accepting of Black people. But of course.

“They don’t see you in the future of America. But they’re wrong,” Biden offers. And of course, Biden took a swipe at Georgia’s election laws at one point in his speech, reviving a misleading claim that voters are banned from receiving food and water while in line at polling places.

“Today in Georgia, they won’t allow water to be available to you while you wait in line to vote in an election. What in the hell is that all about?” Biden said.

The world notices. 

Joe Biden Sunday morning delivered the 2024 Morehouse College commencement address in Atlanta, Georgia.

US President Joe Biden was blasted online following “incoherent pandering” at a graduation ceremony on Sunday at Morehouse College in Atlanta. The 81-year-old received an honorary degree from the college located in Atlanta and conducted a speech. X users roasted The oldest-ever sitting president after his early exit from Morehouse’s ceremony.

“Biden bails on the rest of the ceremony after he finishes his incoherent pandering at Morehouse College,” wrote RNC Research. University students protested Biden’s appearance during the graduation ceremony as many turned their backs on him.

One of the students at the ceremony, DeAngelo Fletcher, believed the President’s appearance was to appeal to young black voters. “I think it’s kind of insulting that our star alumnus is Dr. King, but Biden has been on a tirade in the Middle East. Bringing him here, especially during an election year to get the young Black vote especially, it’s kind of insulting,” he said. He would later go on call for Israel to impose an “immediate” cease-fire. He also endorsed a two-state solution as “the only solution.”

 

The special potion given apparently wore off after his tirade about how terrible blacks have it.

It’s hard to believe that we might get four more years of this nonsense.

Sunday Respite – ‘Looking for the Summer’

My friends down Fort Myers way in Florida, tell me it was expected yesterday to hit 106, so they clearly are no longer looking for the summer!

Here in my neck of the woods, it’s just unsettled after a couple of gorgeous 70’s.

Anyway, summer is bearing down and I am ready.

Here is Chris Rea in “Looking for the Summer.” Not my favorite video of his songs, but favorite version.

If you missed yesterday’s post of nonsense and general mayhem, here is your second chance.

Let’s get started:

I’ll throw in a couple of links of fellow bloggers who toil in the swamp for us. A couple of them may catch your fancy.

‘Cult-like and extremist’: The View hosts slam NFL player’s Catholic views

The View co-host Sara Haines slammed the Kansas City kicker’s speech and his use and views of religion. “If you’re using this to oppress people or hold them down, you’re not walking with Jesus,” she said.

The media sure is getting careless in the free speech category. As if a man making a commencement address is no longer permitted to express his views. The intolerance grows. Something to think about over the weekend. So now the traditional catholic mass is dangerous?

Notes from one of the videos out there:

Hosts of ABC’s The View criticised Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker over his Catholic beliefs on Thursday. The hosts of the talk show compared the kicker’s beliefs to “cult-like and extremist religions in the Middle East”. The Chiefs player spoke about traditional Catholic views and criticised the LGBTQ community and US President Joe Biden.

Back in April of 2023 I post this as a refresher:

That imperative, plus the burning hatred that Catholic Joe’s regime clearly has for all forms of traditional Christianity and above all for pro-lifers, may have led to the fact that, as Fox News reported Monday, the FBI “recently sought to develop sources inside Christian churches and Catholic dioceses as part of an effort to combat domestic terrorism.” This is clear from internal FBI documents that the House Judiciary Committee released to the public on Monday.

The best of the swamp.

Biden Agrees to Debate – So What is in the ‘Magic Elixir’ that Brings Him Back to Live?

There’s no evidence to suggest Biden is actually on any drugs, legal or otherwise. But purely hypothetically: Would Adderall really do what Giuliani (and by implication, Trump) claims? What kind of miracle drugs does Trump think Biden would need here? 

This was a story Slate put out last time around in 2020. At the time Trump had suggested that Biden should be required to take a drug test. Here tis:

Hypothetically, Would Adderall Turn Joe Biden Into a Debate Whiz?

A pharmacist on President Trump’s bizarre theory.

Heather Schwedel: How would a drug like Adderall affect someone’s debate performances?

Michael T. Swanoski: Adderall is a stimulant that’s often prescribed for attention deficit disorder. So Adderall potentially could increase your attentiveness if you’re feeling drowsy or if you’re fatigued. But it doesn’t increase cognition per se. It doesn’t improve thinking, but it provides a boost similar to what you’d get from a cup of coffee—a little more pronounced, but not increasing cognition in any way. It wouldn’t have an effect on your acetylcholine, which is the chemical that’s connected with clear thoughts, thinking through a difficult task, and high-level thinking.

What other kind of drugs would take a person from sleepy to wide awake, so to speak?

There’s been a push in marketing nutritional supplements that are touted for improving brain health or memory. They make vague claims of brain enhancer or memory enhancer without really getting too specific, because they’re not allowed to make claims that they can’t back up. But there’ve certainly been cases of students using stimulants to help, maybe if they’ve got a big exam, to make them more alert potentially. People are purchasing these products with the hope that they’ll help them with giving them a competitive edge, perhaps in their job or whatever they need to think about.

The there is that white powder that mysteriously shows up at the White House from time to time.

Back to the story at hand. The debates”

“Donald Trump lost two debates to me in 2020,” Biden said before the first cut. “And since then, he hasn’t shown up for a debate.”

“Now he’s acting like he wants to debate me again,” he said before the third cut. “Well make my day, pal … I’ll even debate you twice. So let’s pick the dates, Donald. I hear you’re free on Wednesdays.”

 

Speculation begins. 

So in the end, Biden concedes to Trump and will do a couple debates. The only question is why? And why June. Is it a last ditch stand to see if he can get through one and if not dump him at the convention?

One thing is for sure, CNN will have given him the questions long before the night of the debate.

Here is Biden taking a victory lap as the big man on campus.

 

 

Michael Tyler, the campaign communications director, said the president did “not mince words.”

Biden-Harris Campaign Communications Director Michael Tyler joins Morning Joe to discuss the president laying out terms for presidential debates.

 

“I mean listen, the president himself did not mince words, right? He said that he beat Donald Trump twice in 2020. Donald Trump hasn’t debated since, the president is happy to debate. He’s happy to do it twice,”

Tyler told “Morning Joe” Wednesday. “He thinks we should do it sooner rather than later so the American people can see the stark choice that’s in front of them in this election. We should do it in June after Donald Trump’s criminal trial is likely to conclude and the president returns from the G-7 Summit and we should have a second debate in September way ahead of when early voting begins again so the Americans people can hear from both candidates before they go cast their ballots.”

 

Well we are off. Good Luck. The best of the swamp.

Federal Court Enforces SEC Subpoena – Elon Musk Must Testify

Elon continues his long walk down the highway of law fare. As Chuck schumer so famously said regarding the CIA: “The Intelligence Community has Six Ways from Sunday of Getting Back at You.” For Elon Musk, his nemesis is the SEC.

A federal court said that Elon Musk must testify again in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s investigation into his $44 billion takeover of Twitter, according to a court filing on Tuesday. His battles started long ago and far away.

This was five years ago and the battles continues.

“The Tesla cofounder got in hot water with the Securities and Exchange Commission and explains to Lesley Stahl how his tweeting has been reined in as a result.”

He closes by saying he respects the Justice System. Well, Elon, five years and many subpoenas later do you feel the same way?

Yahoo news chimes into the controversy at the same time with this keen observation.

 

 

Now we have the latest:

 

The SEC sued Musk in October to compel the Tesla and SpaceX CEO to testify after he refused to attend a September interview for the investigation, saying the SEC was trying to “harass” him with a number of subpoenas.

The investigation concerns whether Musk broke federal securities laws in 2022 when he bought stock in Twitter, which he later renamed X. It is also reviewing statements and SEC filings he made in relation to the deal, the agency has previously said.

H/T: NewsMax

One can only wonder how Soros and the rest of the wacko left, ever let such a powerful communication company as Twitter aka “X” ever slip away from them and into the hands of a man such as Elon Musk. The last bastion of a free press.

This post doesn’t even attempt to address the issues he is having with the government over Tesla.

Musk will no doubt end up similar to Trump before its over with criminal charges.

Blinken Arrives in Kiev, What 61 Billion Dollars Buys U.S. In Ukraine

Blinken saddled up and is now visiting Zelensky. Once again no doubt telling Zelensky how to run his war. Meanwhile, reports are that Russia has picked up steam and has started a new front. Now the the munitions are flowing, expect things to pick up. I would say in time for the election. Although the U.S. has repeatedly told Zelensky – so they say – not to bomb inside Russia, Zelensky has done just that. Refineries have been the target. Now with the new weapons, expect more attacks deep inside Russia.

This is just a “starter package” to protect the Globalist interests in Ukraine. From a couple of Bunks previous posts a brief refresher for starters:

Ukrainian Leader Calls ‘Crumbs From Master’s Table’: ‘Sham’ Ukraine Arms Aid To Fight Russia

The details are slowly being revealed and neither side is happy apparently. More like a loan now. Just what is the collateral going to be used? The globalists have pretty much taken control over the “Bread Basket.”

The Ukrainian leader has come down heavily on the biggest ally, the U.S., amid the Russian blitz. Ukrainian MP Oleksandr Dubinsky labelled U.S. aid as “crumbs from the master’s table.” He said that the majority of the funds will go to the U.S. military-industrial complex.

Zelensky’s Opening Act at Davos -Courts JPMorgan, Bank of America, Bridgewater CEO’s

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy met some of the biggest names in global finance on Tuesday morning on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland. The Ukrainian leader spoke with JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon, Blackstone’s Steve Schwarzman and Bridgewater founder Ray Dalio among others.

And what is left to peddle?

Polish President Revealed That Foreign Companies Own Most Of Ukraine’s Industrial Agriculture

What is left for the Ukrainian people, after the “kinetic action” ends, will merely be a carcass of a country. This after the feasting off of the country by the usual players. Poland has raised issues surrounding the Ukraine farmland and points out that a “significant share of it” has been taken over by foreign firms.

Surly we must not leave out Hillary – she did such a great job in Haiti for her family.

They’re Back! Clinton Global Initiative to Launch Network to Provide ‘Humanitarian Aid’ to War-Torn Ukraine.

The Clinton Global Initiative will launch a new network to provide ‘humanitarian aid’ to war-torn Ukraine.

According to the Associated Press, the Clinton Global Initiative will be launching a new network dubbed CGI Ukraine Action Network:

CGI plans to announce the launch of the CGI Ukraine Action Network, as well as numerous financial pledges, to support nonprofits working in the country.

The CGI Ukraine Action Network is the result of a collaboration between Hillary Clinton and Olena Zelenska, first lady of Ukraine, that began last year. The new organization, which will be formally announced Tuesday, is designed to mobilize existing CGI partners, as well as new leaders from around the world, to create and finance new commitments for Ukrainians, according to CGI. Numerous monetary commitments for Ukraine are also set to be announced Tuesday,

Now the latest war news which may or may not be true, but appears to be the latest consensus.

For the first time since Russia launched its major cross-border offensive into Ukraine’s Kharkiv region (it began last Friday), Ukraine’s government has acknowledged that Moscow forces have made rapid gains.

Oleg Sinegubov, the head of the military administration of the Kharkov Region, has said Russia is pushing past the frontline. “Essentially, the frontline is expanding as the enemy is advancing from multiple positions,” he admitted during an interview with Sky News.

This assessment of Ukrainian lines collapsing in Kharkiv region is consistent with the latest Kremlin statements:

Russia’s Defense Ministry said Sunday that its forces had captured four more villages in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region as thousands of residents were evacuated amid Moscow’s surprise ground offensive.

The ministry said its forces had “advanced deeply into the enemy defenses” and taken villages including Gatishche, Krasnoye, Morokhovets, and Oleinikovo.

Meanwhile, Blinken arrives in the Ukraine.

Biden Tweaks CPI Index – Coffee Comes Under Scrutiny

Why is it that food and and energy are not included in the consumer price index? Either way, your cup of Joe is bidding adieu to the index as calculated . They can tweak it all they want, but inflation is inflation. A new report comes out this week.

Here goes:

The Bureau of Labor Statistics announced coffee prices will no longer be factored into the CPI inflation data.

This is another way for the US government to fudge the inflation numbers to help Joe Biden in the middle of a presidential election.

The overwhelming majority of Americans consume coffee every day. According to Drive Research, 73% of Americans drink coffee every day. Consumer prices rose 0.4% in February – less energy and food prices. Grocery prices are up 30+%. Gas prices are soaring.

The US BLS has announced that coffee prices will no longer be factored into CPI inflation data. In fact, the April 2024 CPI inflation report this week will be the first to NOT include coffee price inflation. Well, the obvious next step is to see what happened to coffee prices over the last few months.

Since September 2023, coffee prices are up a MASSIVE 78%. From January 1st of this year through the high in April when this change was announced, coffee prices gained 35%.  Starbucks, just reported a 6% decline in traffic as higher prices deter consumers. What is happening here?

 

 

This week’s April CPI inflation report will NOT include coffee price inflation.

Consumer Price Index News Release – 2024 M03 Results

Bureau of Labor Statistics (.gov)
Here is a handy dandy chart. Go to link above.
The all items index rose 3.5 percent for the 12 months ending March, a larger increase than the
3.2-percent increase for the 12 months ending February. The all items less food and energy index rose
3.8 percent over the last 12 months. The energy index increased 2.1 percent for the 12 months ending
March, the first 12-month increase in that index since the period ending February 2023. The food index
increased 2.2 percent over the last year. 
 
 
Postscript.

After I put this post together, a comment was left on the tweet.

Coffee is not being removed from CPI. Discontinuing the publication of a specific average price series is not the same as removing a good from the CPI calculation. For an explanation, see bls.gov/cpi/factsheets…
