    That's the rumor, that Biden will resign. Tom Fitton (Judicial Watch) and others are hearing this.

    Major pressure is being exerted on Biden to get out: https://www.dailywire.com/news/disne...ors-dump-biden

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/ar-BB1puihw

    This could be the Dems only path. Going with another candidate presents many problems:

    * Some organization (I believe The Heritage Foundation), has threatened to sue the Dems on behalf of a few states if they choose another candidate. It has something to do with the election laws for a few key states - not sure of specifics though.

    * There's also the issue with money that has already been donated to Biden-Harris. Apparently this isn't an issue if Biden resigns and Harris becomes the nominee. But there appears to be hurdles if Biden-Harris tried to transfer that to another candidate.

    * Bypassing the primary process.


    ** also note that the media and several Dems are openly promoting Harris.

    I was curious as to why Republicans have been blamed for all of the ills of the late 20th C. and the past 24 years. I did a bit of research and realized it’s a ridiculous position as the Democrats held the House for nearly the entire last half of the Century and most of the current Century.

    Democrats have also held the Senate the majority of the past 80 or so years.

    The affiliation of the POTUS has been relatively even.

    The Left also has had a stranglehold on the SCOTUS up until recently.

    Just something to think about when the polls indicate 70-80% of the country believes we are on the wrong track.

    This might be overly simplistic, but I think the media has a lot to do with it. They tend to overreact to anything negative on the Right, while downplaying, or completely ignoring, anything negative by the Left.

    Golf is a relatively simple game, played by reasonably intelligent people, stupidly.

    I was going to write about the influence of TV and the memorizing affect it has had on society. However you nailed it.

    Read more. I’m picking up Charles Percy Snow this weekend. Should be riveting. ;)

    You know it’s a lie when the talking point is standardized and repeated by the media:

    • “Russian interference”
    • “Horse dewormer”
    • “Safe and effective”
    • “Russian disinformation”
    • “It’s just a stutter.”
    • “Biden is fit to serve and he’s our nominee. I can’t wait to vote for him.


    In case you ever wondered if you are a fucking idiot, just check to see if you ever used any of these phrases. Remember, the internet is forever.

    Coming soon: “The most secure election ever.”

    Hydroxychloroquine for COVID. Ville can correct me but I believe the Media dismissed it as horse medication.

    From what I’ve read it is used to treat malaria and various other diseases in humans.

    We, as a society lost our minds in 2020 (that is only my opinion).
