Coup attempt against Joe Biden by democracy worshipers Adam Shifty Schiff, Nancy Big Guns Pelosi, Chucky Schumer, and Hakeem Jeffries isn't working lol
Biden was apparently last vaccinated against COVID-19 last October but has come down with it anyway for the third time
The Hill reports here:
President Biden tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday, marking the third time in the past two years the president has tested positive for the virus. ... Biden was seen boarding Air Force One, not wearing a mask, and told reporters he feels “good.”
One law for me, another for thee.

Devastating AP-NORC poll of Democrats shows 65% now say Joe Biden should drop out, completely reversing from two weeks ago when Reuters/Ipsos showed 66% said "don't drop out"
26% of Republicans now say Trump should drop out in the the AP-NORC poll, up from 11% in the Reuters/Ipsos poll two weeks ago (below).
Apples and oranges, but still.
The AP-NORC poll is here.
So, we won't have Democrat Senator Bob Menendez to kick around anymore
NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez was convicted of all charges Tuesday in a sweeping corruption trial in which he was accused of accepting bribes of gold and cash from three New Jersey businessmen and acting as an agent for the Egyptian government.
A jury in Manhattan deliberated for parts of three days before
finding the Democrat guilty of 16 crimes, including bribery, extortion,
honest services fraud, obstruction of justice and conspiracy. ...
Two co-defendants were also convicted. The New Jersey businessmen, Wael Hana and Fred Daibes, were accused of paying bribes. A third businessman, Jose Uribe, pleaded guilty prior to trial and testified against the others. ...
Prosecutors said serial numbers on the gold bars and fingerprints on tape that bound together the stacks of cash were traced to Hana and Daibes.

Daniel McCarthy has to assert that JD Vance is loyal because he isn't really
Does a loyal man run to be your senator and turn around and dump you after less than two years in office?
Really, he said he was NeverTrump in 2015-2016. He wasn't loyal to that either.
NeverTrump J. D. Vance in 2016 was a small sea of confusion whose options were his dog, Hillary, and Evan McMuffinhead lol
VANCE: My current plan is to vote either third party or, as I joked to my wife, I might write in my dog because that's about as good as it seems. But, you know, I think there's a chance, if I feel like Trump has a really good chance of winning, that I might have to hold my nose and vote for Hillary Clinton. But at the end of the day, I just feel like she is so culturally disconnected from the people that I grew up around that it would be very, very hard for me to cast my ballot for her. So ultimately I think I'll probably vote third party. I might vote for this new guy who I really like, Evan McMullin, who I actually met the other day. But I think that I'm going to vote third party because I can't stomach Trump. I think that he's noxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place. And ultimately I just don't share Hillary Clinton's politics.
NPR.
I would like the name of his dog NOW.
J. D. Vance is the kinder, gentler version of National Review's Kevin Williamson about the hopelessness of his own people
The truth about these dysfunctional,
downscale communities is that they deserve to die. Economically, they
are negative assets. Morally, they are indefensible.
-- Kevin Williamson, March 2016
And it's interesting that all of the people that I talk about in my book that grew up in this chaos that ended up having successful home lives and successful marriages - they married an outsider.
They married someone like I did who didn't grow up with these lessons, who didn't grow up with these experiences, and because of that, knew how to manage the people that they were married to and knew how to not respond in kind. As I write in the book, you put two of me in the same marriage, and I don't think it works.
But you put one of me, who's maybe a little self-reflective, in a marriage with somebody who hasn't faced that trauma - then I think you have a good chance. And that's one of the lessons of my life.
-- J. D. Vance, from the NPR interview, August 2016, here
Meanwhile phony Joe protests he's not an extremist
President who labeled half of the country extremists now appeals for unity
“Donald Trump
and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very
foundations of our republic,” Mr. Biden said in a fiery Independence
Hall speech on Sept. 1, 2022, looking to shape the midterm elections.
“And here, in my view, is what is true: MAGA Republicans do not respect
the Constitution. They do not believe in the rule of law. They do not
recognize the will of the people.”
He continued: “MAGA Republicans have made their choice. They embrace anger. They thrive on chaos. They live not in the light of truth but in the shadow of lies. And yet history tells us that blind loyalty to a single leader and a willingness to engage in political violence is fatal to democracy.” ...
“Not since President Lincoln and the Civil War have freedom and democracy been under assault here at home as they are today,” he lamented. “What makes our moment rare is that freedom and democracy are under attack, both at home and overseas, at the very same time.”
JD Vance 2016: Trump’s promises are the needle in America’s collective vein, Trump is cultural heroin
I hope Americans cast their gaze to those with the most power to address so many of these problems: each other. And then, perhaps the nation will trade the quick high of “Make America Great Again” for real medicine.

So, NeverTrump J. D. Vance has successfully advanced himself to the big time, a phony just like Trump, who claims to be a blood and soil conservative to the rubes but didn't exactly marry a woman from the holler he says he loves so much
His wife is an American born to parents from India. She is an elite like him, a graduate of Yale and a Democrat. She remains Hindu while Vance is Catholic (less than 1% of the population of Appalachia is Catholic).
The blood and soil shtick is just a grift.

The irony: Joe Biden twice said tonight we're going to settle this at the Battle Box
He did say ballot at the beginning, so he's one for three:
The left's answer is always to call the other guy what you are
Zack Beauchamp for Vox:
Biden is a steady leader but in a poor position to handle a crisis; Trump is a demagogue who is more likely to raise tensions rather than lower them.
