Anti-white man once allegedly pretending to be black now looks like he was pretending to be Christian: Rev. Shaun King converts to Islam
“I am a practicing Christian. I am an ordained minister and was a senior pastor for many years,” he noted [in 2020] in response to the blowback and alleged death threats he received for his condemnation of “white Jesus.” King defended his comments, doubling down on his belief that “Christian whiteness has ALWAYS been dangerous.”

Joe Biden, president of the United States, asks Pennsylvanians to send him back to Congress one day after his March 7 SOTU address lol
Is he running for a House seat or a Senate seat?
Here.
There were also these whoppers:
"We added more to the national debt than any president in his term in all of history!"
"The U.S. Capitol — the same building where our freedoms came under assault on July the 6th!"
Biden says almost every world leader has grabbed his arm, pulled him aside, and said "you can't win again".
Having fewer children per family means having fewer rebel last borns and the more docile, compliant, trusting population we have today instead
Having fewer children per family means having fewer rebel last borns in society and therefore the more docile, compliant, trusting population we have today, which is more easily led and misled.
Weimar America: Every restaurant is going to become a Wendy's, destroying a decade-old meme
Get ready to pay "market price" at more and more restaurants as docile younger adults are just fine with it.
Pretty insane that every transaction in America is going to become a negotiation. It's a hamburger, dammit, not a 2024 Honda.
This is not progress. This is America becoming a third world bazaar.
The Wall Street Journal reports:
Surge Pricing Is Coming to More Menus Near You
Dozens of restaurant brands use Juicer’s technology to change their prices based on demand trends, with an average swing of up to 15%, Patterson said. Delivery services such as Uber Eats and technology platforms like Tock also allow restaurants to bump prices up or down. ...
An estimated 61% of adults support variable pricing where a restaurant lowers or raises prices based on business, with younger consumers more in favor of the approach than older ones, according to an online survey of 1,000 people by the National Restaurant Association trade group.
These assholes are trying to sell this as analogous to "Happy Hour".
Happy Hour is happy because the normally COSTLY bar service is CHEAPER during Happy Hour, hello.
Just wait until the grocery store starts doing this, then see how you like it.

Adam Shifty Schiff may live to regret painting popular nice guy Steve Garvey as a MAGA boogeyman come November
Four days after the primary election we've gone from 49% counted to 69% counted with Garvey still holding his own against the candidate crowned by Nancy Pelosi.
On the one hand one should be encouraged by Garvey's surprising competitiveness in this blue state.
On the other this is a bad omen for November vote fraud planning by Democrats to make sure the Feinstein seat remains Democrat.

You should read The Untold History of the Biden Family about Joe's so-called middle class dad
It's a doozy, in The New Yorker no less, here, August 15, 2022:
Relatively
little has been known about the President’s father, whose story reveals
a family’s fraught relationship with money, class, and alcohol.
Commenter at Real Clear astounded by Biden's attempt to minimize Laken Riley's murder
He spoke her name: Laken Riley. And then he said, "How many people are killed by illegals?" Apparently not enough to be of any concern to him. I think that was the most astounding comment he made this evening. It should trouble every American.

Joe Biden wants children to read by 3rd grade
Shouldn't they be reading in Kindergarten? Mine were.
Why do Democrats have such low expectations for public education?
Biden wants to build a port for Gaza for relief shipments even though Hamas is still holding American citizens hostage to this day
Assuming they are still alive.
The conflict between the facts and this new proposal is jarring to say the least:
Here in the chamber tonight are American families whose loved ones are still being held by Hamas.
I pledge to all the families that we will not rest until we bring their loved ones home. ...
Hamas
could end this conflict today by releasing the hostages, laying down
arms, and surrendering those responsible for October 7th. ...
Tonight, I’m directing the U.S. military to lead an emergency mission to establish a temporary pier in the Mediterranean on the Gaza coast that can receive large ships carrying food, water, medicine and temporary shelters.
I remember when Americans held hostage by Muslims in Iran was a crisis which toppled a president. Now hardly anyone gives a fig because they're Jews.
Hamas protestors delayed POTUS' motorcade to SOTU address, an official proceeding, not White Rural Rage
Obama's war on coal has resulted in the elimination of electrical generation capacity equivalent to the entire nuclear power sector, and these idiots wonder how America ended up running out of electricity
Starting from 2012 and going through 2022, ~ 106 GW of coal-fired capacity was eliminated in the US.
Of the ~ 200 GW remaining, ~ 23% is scheduled to be eliminated through 2029.
Meanwhile China just builds and builds and builds new coal-fired capacity. It now has at least 1,109 GW of coal-fired capacity, five times more than the US.

California is the poster child of failed democracy
The primary was yesterday.
The UK, with a population more than twice the size of California, would have had the entire vote for any race counted within hours.
But California has made no progress since this morning.
In the crucial race for US Senate, California has made almost ZERO progress after twelve hours.
This is how you create the conditions to tamper with the vote. You get people accustomed to delays like today time after time so that people tire of raising any objections. And then boom! you steal the election when you need to because it took forever last time, why not THIS time?
At 8:34am, the New York Times reported 48% of the vote counted in the US Senate race:
Tonight, at 8:53pm, they've made it up 1 point to 49% counted:
That's so California right there lol: Adam Shifty Schiff is unflappable and polite, also the man who regularly insulted Trump on social media
From the LA Times here:
Instead [disgruntled Porter supporter Katie Loss, 69] is supporting Schiff, who she said she has long admired for his intelligence, his more than 20 years of experience in Washington and his willingness to stand up to Trump. And, she said, his polite, unflappable demeanor is "badly needed in the Senate."
Three paragraphs later:
Still, Schiff — through his role as a House impeachment manager and regular appearances on cable news — was the most visible and forceful foil to Trump, who regularly called him out at rallies and insulted him on social media.
Meanwhile, just 48% of the vote in California, tech capital of the world, is counted this morning:

Sometimes Hillary really has a way with words
"So we have a contest between one candidate who's old, but who's done an effective job and doesn't threaten our democracy. And we have another candidate who is old, barely makes sense when he talks, is dangerous, and threatens our democracy."

FOIA lawsuit reveals Biden used taxpayer money to fly 320,000 illegal aliens directly from their home countries into the US in 2023
Use of a cell phone app has allowed for the near undetected arrival by air of 320,000 aliens with no legal rights to enter the United States.
It comes after a controversy over a 2022 transportation program in which the administration used taxpayers money to move migrants throughout the country on overnight flights.
Included in details of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit first reported by Todd Bensman, the Center for Immigration Studies found Biden's CBP approved the latest secretive flights that transported hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants from foreign countries into at least 43 different American airports from January through December 2023.
The whole thing is here.

Cocaine was found in the Biden White House, but rag specializing in drugs, sex, and rock and roll smears Trump and hopes no one reads to paragraph thirty-two
The Don's White House Was 'Awash in Speed' -- and XANAX...
Thirty-two paragraphs in LOL:
NEARLY EVERY SOURCE INTERVIEWED for this story traced the problems with the White House Medical Unit back to Jackson, who joined the team during the George W. Bush administration and became physician to President Barack Obama in 2013. Before then, he was known as an eccentric. Afterward, he became a menace, as several Defense Department investigations detail.

Justin Amash flip-flops, announces he's running as a Republican for the US Senate from Michigan after leaving the Republican Party in 2019
Story here.
Last September I predicted he'd run, except as a spoiler for the Libertarian Party.
This is just more evidence that he has never been the consistent libertarian he has claimed to be. He's nothing but a climber, like all the rest.
Core inflation measure for January 2024 is . . . not good
Year over year we're still at 2.8%, still well above 2.0.
The monthly pop of .4% is high relative to anything in the last year.
The .5 change in the index was . . . pretty dang big.
The drive by media always spins this as "expected" when consensus estimates are confirmed, but that doesn't make them good.
We have the Napoleon wannabe in Paris, Emmanuel Macron, threatening to send in NATO troops, to thank for Putin's explicit threat to use nuclear weapons
Referring to French President Emmanuel Macron’s refusal to rule out sending western troops to Ukraine this week, Putin said Russia remembered “the fate of those who once sent their contingents to our country. “Now the consequences for possible interveners will be much more tragic,” he added. “We also have weapons that can strike targets on their territory.”
CNBC similarly here:
The comments appeared to be a direct response to French President Emmanuel Macron’s suggestion earlier this week that European heads of state and Western officials, who had met in Paris on Monday, had talked about the possibility of sending ground troops into Ukraine.
The French leader on Monday said there was no consensus on the idea, but that it had not been “ruled out.”
The comments have since sent NATO countries scrambling to deny they’d send troops into Ukraine, with Russia warning that such a deployment would prompt an “inevitable” Russia-NATO conflict.
Biden surrendered Afghanistan to the terrorists of the Taliban, backs two wars in Israel and Ukraine which risk world war with Russia and maybe China, but Americans think Trump is dangerous
Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll of nearly 5,000 (all online smh):
Less than half of respondents said his almost-certain rival, 77-year-old Donald Trump, was too old. Still, Trump faces his own vulnerabilities with swing-state voters, with a majority saying the former president is dangerous. ...
Almost six in 10 swing-state voters labeled Trump as dangerous — a concern far more pronounced among undecided voters, who make up less than one-tenth of the swing-state electorate. Even 28% of those who plan to vote for him in November agree that Trump is dangerous. Fewer than half as many Biden supporters said the same about their candidate.
Swing-state voters who volunteered that they had heard something about his recent comments degrading NATO were especially lopsided in thinking Trump was the more dangerous of the two candidates.

RFK Jr. is on the ballot in AZ, GA, UT, NH, and HI so far

My candidate in the Michigan GOP presidential primary finished in the top 1.2% of the field lol
Yes, I'm well aware he dropped out and endorsed Trump.
Turn out was pretty pathetic in Michigan, despite mail-in voting and early in person voting up to 29 days in advance.
Combined turnout for the two parties was less than 23% of the 8.275 million registered voters.
The Hamas vote racked up a big protest vote against Joe Biden of more than 100k.
Uncommitted Republican votes of 33k+ must be the small L libertarians? Social conservatives could vote happily for Ron DeSantis.
Meanwhile Nikki Haley attracted 293k of the AWFLs, most of whom were Democrat voters.
The primary is well nigh useless as an indicator of much of anything since all you have to do is check the Republican box or the Democrat box when you appear and you are given the appropriate ballot. There is no party "registration". You are what you say you are, but every man is a liar (Romans 3:4).
Senator Mitch McConnell, 82, will step down from his GOP leadership position in November
WASHINGTON (AP) — Mitch McConnell, the longest-serving Senate leader in history who maintained his power in the face of dramatic convulsions in the Republican Party for almost two decades, will step down from that position in November. ...
McConnell’s path to power was hardly linear, but from the day he walked onto the Senate floor in 1985 and took his seat as the most junior Republican senator, he set his sights on being the party leader. What set him apart was that so many other Senate leaders wanted to run for president. McConnell wanted to run the Senate. He lost races for lower party positions before steadily ascending, and finally became party leader in 2006 and has won nine straight elections.
More.
Mitch was 64 when he took over in 2006.
Senator John Thune, 63, is a favorite to succeed him.

AI admits its goal is to eliminate harmful biases and stereotypes in keeping with DEI, not provide factual information
Google Gemini is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and even prompts one to recognize it in the shorthand of "DEI":
Albert Einstein, just because it's Tuesday
From his diaries:
“I noticed how little difference there is between men and women; I don’t understand what kind of fatal attraction Chinese women possess which enthrals the corresponding men to such an extent that they are incapable of defending themselves against the formidable blessing of offspring”.
From their editor:
"the remark that must strike the modern reader as most offensive is his feigning not to understand how Chinese men can find their women sufficiently attractive to have offspring with them."

Easy mistake:
Joe Biden is a victim of elder abuse
Laura Rosen Cohen, parent of a special needs child in Toronto, for Newsweek here, who calls this the Abuse That Dare Not Speak Its Name:
Recent reports
confirm what's obvious to everyone on the planet: President Joe Biden
is a frail 81-year old who requires physiotherapy daily for his
increasingly stiff gait and must wear slip proof sneakers to prevent
frequent falls. Staff reportedly can only schedule important meetings
for him from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, because that is when he is most lucid.
This is a pattern in keeping with many dementia patients, as are other symptoms: Rarely does a day go by without video of Biden looking completely confused. He also frequently shouts angrily at reporters and confuses things, like Mexico and Egypt, or the names of dead leaders with current ones.
It's increasingly alarming, and the general consensus in America and around the world is that Biden is both too old for the job and not well.
In most normal families, a frail 81-year-old grandfather insisting on working but showing clear signs of diminished mental capacity and repeated episodes of falling and physical fragility would be encouraged to quit, enjoy his retirement, golf and garden to his heart's content. Quit your day job, Gramps, they would rightly say. And it's not like the Biden family is strapped for cash. Aside from any potential extended family business earnings, Joe Biden himself is reported to be worth approximately $10 million.
President Joe Biden faces a clear and present
physical danger to his person due to his decline. But the public
spectacle of his enfeebled nature also begs a different question: Why is
the First Lady not putting an end to her husband's repeated and
consistent public humiliation? Why aren't his children or grandchildren
doing the right thing for their loved one? ...
If insisting on keeping a frail and doddering senior in the White House (or any job for that matter), exposing him to daily physical risk, demanding he perform tasks beyond his mental and physical capacity or stamina and world ridicule isn't elder abuse, what is? Are there any adults in the Biden family "room" who will finally call a lid not just on the President's repeated public humiliations but on his tenure writ large?
The leader of the free world is now an actual physical representation of the decline of American power and the American Republic. The President's diminished capacity is being willfully and purposely ignored by those closest to him, something that is very well-appreciated by America's enemies. As a result, the world is in chaos.

Sky News Australia does the job American journalists won't do, showing Biden's cognitive decline in front of the nation's governors
In Biden's defense at the end, it appears to me that with "I'm right here?" he's confirming with his aides that he's to move next to the table directly in front of the podium to have his meal. He's not demonstrating confusion exactly, but the constant need for direction is a sign of the loss of what is called "executive function", which is sad to see in anyone, let alone a Chief Executive.
Do you want a president who must ask which button to push in a nuclear war?
The rest, showing both the Xi Jinping and Abraham Lincoln remarks, is hard to watch.
Biden barely remembers major events in his political career and personal life, yet easily recalls things that never occurred
Biden has never been an honest man, but his
inability to tell fact from fiction puts the nation at risk.
Read it all here.

While Drudge spent the day smearing Trump, Biden spent it slaughtering a speech in front of the nation's governors
Biden Calls Xi the Russian Leader, Botches Lincoln Quote, Forgets Obama’s Name in Disastrous Speech :
... an unmitigated disaster from start to finish. ...
Biden humiliated himself — and by extension, the office the presidency —
by constantly botching historical quotes and being unable to correctly
identify some of the most powerful world leaders.
Drudge recycles 5-day old story at the top of his page to smear Trump as losing his mind when it's clear Trump isn't
The first story is a five day old story where Trump was speaking in Michigan about the importance of gearing up for November, urging Michigan voters to do that by voting in their primary on Feb 27th but saying November again by mistake. This type of mistake is commonly made by people of all ages. It's also commonly made by ancient scribes.
The story about getting Melania's name wrong is simply a lie. Trump was referring to Mercedes Schlapp in the audience. The story itself is a smear.
The third is a lie about wanting Biden as president. Trump said he agreed that Putin wants Biden as president.
This looks like it's going to be a regular feature at Drudge from now on, not journalism but advocacy.
Drudge is fast becoming Rush Limbaugh's drive-by media, taking shots but never killing.
