This Passage Describing the Meltdown at a Pro-Biden Debate Watch Party Is Priceless

Democrats are going to continue reeling from Joe Biden’s abysmal debate performance last Thursday night, where former President Donald Trump dog walked the aging Delaware liberal to the point where you did feel a little bit bad for him. But then you remember that feelings are irrelevant here, and we need to destroy this man politically to save the country. To quote James Carville, when your opponent is drowning, throw him an anvil, not a life jacket. Trump did that but there was no anvil. It wasn’t necessary. He simply let Biden drown on his own volition. 

Trump’s evisceration of Biden is hardly a secret for most, but liberal America is coping especially hard. There’s no excuse for it. We saw it numerous times. There are polls to that effect. Those surveys are likely worse now. The combination of arrogance and anti-Trump bias is a deadly political speedball that’s left progressives overdosing and in need of Narcan. In Los Angeles, CNN reported on what could be described as a total meltdown among attendees, which included elected Democrats and Hollywood elitists. Jane Fonda was reportedly brought to tears (via CNN): 

Multiple Democratic officials and operatives, some of whom are affiliated with alternatives and those who are not, rage that Biden has demonstrated too much of an ego to have bowed out before. The president’s argument that he was the Democrat best able to beat Trump, several said, has now been turned on its head and they are left feeling he’s the option least able to beat Trump.  They say the president’s inner circle who have been running the campaign and prepared him for the debate – and who told some privately ahead of Thursday night that the prep had gone well – are either not being honest or are not capable of steering him either toward an exit or a recovery. At a LGBTQ fundraiser in New York City on Friday night, one attendee said some of the conversations even turned against Jill Biden, with the deep love for her as the quirky reluctant political spouse quickly curdling into exasperation that she is not willing to make the move that would lead to them leaving the White House.  Even as minds turn to a list that includes Harris, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, Whitmer, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and even relatively new Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, none have gone public with anything but words of support for Biden. They worry about being called traitors. They worry that it might make Biden dig in more.  A debate watch party in Los Angeles on Thursday night happened to feature Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff, Pritzker, Whitmer and Beshear. There were other high-profile attendees – by a few answers in, Rob Reiner was screaming about losing and Jane Fonda had tears in her eyes, according to people in the room. 

The lengthy piece also expounded upon a hypothetical of an open convention, where Vice President Kamala Harris pulls a Brutus. Yet, there’s messy identity politics that leech through this scenario, even if far-fetched. Donna Brazile was quoted wondering how all these white Democrats could be placed ahead of the VP regarding these candidate replacement talks [emphasis mine]: 

The vice president’s “I’m not going to spend all night with you talking about the last 90 minutes when I’ve been watching the last three-and-a-half years of performance,” which people in her orbit say she came up with on the fly herself, has since been picked up by campaign operatives in addition to the first lady.  Harris would have other advantages too. A top outside political adviser, Minyon Moore, was months ago named the official in charge of convention proceedings, and others like her former chief of staff Tina Flournoy and Brazile have key committee roles too. Nor are her supporters shy about making their opinions known.  In an interview, Brazile said that her reaction to the calls that she has been getting since the debate with people inquiring about other candidates is: “How the f**k are you going to put all these white people ahead of Kamala?”

Brazile coming in like a “hot sister” again on that one but taking communications cues and advice from Harris is another sign that this party got broadsided, and they don’t know what to do because, yeah; Joe Biden is mentally declining.

SBF Arrested and Other Distractions

When the media wants you to focus on something you can rest assured they will give you other distractions to keep you from seeing what’s going on “Behind the Curtain.” And we usually like to wait a day or so to weigh in with our two cents worth. Cue up:  Sam Bankrun-Fraud’s arrest in the Bahamas Ironically (or NOT) his arrest came literally 24 hours before he was due to testify in Congress. So, it seems his arrest may be a way to stop him from saying something that may harm his defense or incriminate others during the hearings… keeping him from incriminating any more politicians. Based on the charges, he could be looking at life in prison IF convicted. Adding gasoline to a conspiracy fire, he will be held at MCC, the same dungeon in which Jeffrey Epstein supposedly committed suicide.   And with his connections with all the Democrats, it will be interesting to see if he too suddenly commits suicide. Ooops!  Better Call Saul       This also raises a host of other possibilities, including: SBF will blame Caroline Ellison and she’ll blame him. Plan on a clown show Bet he gets a court date before any of the J6 folks still rotting in prison. This concludes Operation Keep Ukraine Money Laundering Concealed… He had a lot of help…Money laundering?  CIA backing?  He didn’t do this alone. Plea deal, 1 year probation, records sealed. Now Back to Trumps taxes. If he gets a DC jury, he might walk. All he has to do is find a way to blame Trump Or they want to put this guy away faster than Paul Pelosi's "attacker" Summing things up: It's a big club and he's no longer in it     Other Distractions...The One They Don't Want You to Notice    And while you’re “looking here and not there…” this also took place.   Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler – scrubbed evidence of a meeting with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from his calendar, along with key details of a meeting with Billionaire leftist-operative George Soros. Gensler also concealed September 21 meetings with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and former Bill Clinton White House official-turned-DC consultant, Minyon Moore. Gensler is, after all, the CEO of the Securities and Exchange Commission. So, does anyone wonder why the Gensler news disappeared today as well?   Meanwhile, on the kinky/perversion front, the luggage thief was caught AGAIN.       Biden Fires Kinky They/Them Luggage-Stealing Nuke Official, Sam Brinton The Department of Energy has also tried to distance Biden from the issue saying: "Sam Brinton is no longer a DOE employee. By law, the Department of Energy cannot comment further on personnel matters." Gee, who could have seen this coming? As a result, some interesting possibilities exist here: What a wonderful gift O’Biden just handed he-she because he-she can now sue for wrongful dismissal as he-she has not been convicted He-she will walk away with probably millions And you're looking at the next head of the U.S. Department of Education Or maybe he’ll get a job at Samsonite Or a million-dollar role in a TV sit com starring with Brittney Griner. This proves that hiring people with a lot of mental health issues was not a good idea... And this also proves that distractions like these keep you from seeing the truth. So, if you’re interested in learning the truth, the read the December issue of “…In Plain English” (HERE). Share this with a friend…especially if they want the truth. They’ll thank YOU later. “And You Shall Know the Truth and the Truth Shall Make You Free” ~John 8:32~ We’re Not Just About Finance.

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita filed a lawsuit this week against a national Black Lives Matter charity for failing to fork over information about its finances.

The lawsuit is part of an investigation Rokita launched against the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation in February that is seeking to determine whether the embattled charity violated Indiana state law by deceiving donors and misapplying its assets.

“Protecting Indiana consumers from this house of cards is critical,” Rokita said in a statement Thursday. “There are concerning patterns of behavior from this organization, and we will do what it takes — including this lawsuit — to get to the bottom of it.”

BLM ACCOUNTING GIMMICK FURTHER DELAYS DISCLOSURE OF ITS $60M BANKROLL

The foundation claimed to have raised $90 million in 2020 in the aftermath of George Floyd's killing, but the charity has yet to file an IRS Form 990 disclosing what it did with the funds. The charity was exposed in early April for trying to conceal its cash purchase of a $6 million Los Angeles mansion with donor funds in October 2020, which a watchdog group alleged could be a violation of IRS charity laws.

The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation has also yet to announce publicly who has been in charge of the charity since its co-founder Patrisse Cullors resigned in May 2021 amid the scrutiny of her own real estate purchases. However, the group did disclose in filings to California and New Mexico in February that Bill and Hillary Clinton insider Minyon Moore and the law firm run by Democratic lawyer Marc Elias had taken up key roles with the charity.

And in February, the foundation shut off its ability to raise funds amid legal threats from California and Washington over its lack of financial and operational transparency.

Rokita sent a civil investigative demand to the charity on Feb. 23 that requested the charity to disclose all of the property it owns in Indiana, as well as produce a general ledger showing all payments and the recipients of those payments that the charity has made since January 2020.

The foundation did not respond by Rokita's March 25 deadline, he said in his lawsuit Tuesday. The attorney general's lawsuit requested state courts to compel the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation to comply with his records request.

“There are many Indiana stakeholders and donors who have been impacted by these allegations. This lawsuit will allow for a court to swiftly and efficiently resolve the state’s request for information,” Rokita said.

He added that the foundation could be barred from future fundraising in Indiana if the charity fails to comply with his demand.

Cullors, who was in control of the foundation while it raked in $90 million in 2020 and spent $6 million on its Los Angeles mansion, said during an event in early April that she finds it "triggering" whenever she hears terms such as IRS Form 990, which is the document charities are required to disclose to the public detailing their financial activities.

She added that activists suffer trauma and their lives are put at risk when their charities are required to disclose publicly what they did with their tax-deductible donations.

"This doesn't seem safe for us, this 990 structure — this nonprofit system structure," Cullors said. "This is, like, deeply unsafe. This is being literally weaponized against us, against the people we work with."

Vice President-elect Kamala Harris‘ senior staff is shaping up to be a proper representation of the voters who are largely credited for her and Joe Biden‘s historic election. Not only are the top three staffers Black but they are also women, a combinatory nod to the group often called the backbone of the Democratic Party. The last addition to Harris’ staff is Tina Flournoy, who was formally picked on Tuesday to be the vice president’s chief of staff. The transition for Flournoy shouldn’t be too difficult since that’s the same role she’s been working in for former President Bill Clinton. Flournoy has also had stints as a senior adviser to Democratic National Convention Chairman Howard Dean and as an Assistant to the President for Public Policy at the American Federation of Teachers. Her bio on the website for Georgetown University — where she graduated from law school – detailed her extensive experience working on behalf of Democrats in positions that include: “traveling chief of staff to 2000 Democratic vice presidential nominee, Senator Joseph Lieberman, Finance Director for the Gore 2000 Presidential Campaign and Deputy to the Campaign Manager in the 1992 Clinton/Gore Presidential Transition Office and in the White House Office of Presidential Personnel. Flournoy also served as General Counsel for the 1992 Democratic National Convention. Prior to joining the Convention team, Flournoy was Counsel for the DNC under Chairmen Paul Kirk and Ron Brown.” According to journalist Yashar Ali, Flournoy is part of a group of Black women Democratic operatives and friends who call themselves “the Colored Girls.” They include Donna Brazile, Yolanda Caraway, Leah Daughtry and Minyon Moore. Ali reported Flourny’s hiring first. Flournoy is expected to work closely with Ashley Etienne, who was named as Harris’ chief communications director. Like Flournoy, Etienne has a wealth of experience working for Democrats, including being the special assistant to President Barack Obama and the cabinet communications director at the White House. She was also a spokeswoman for Nancy Pelosi from 2012-2014. (SWIPE LEFT) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIdlhkVgGRA/?igshid=fggsgy12gf58
