□ [“Biden Presidential Library May Never Exist – No Site, Donors Won’t Give"]

But he was the most popular president ever with more votes than anyone in history!  Yet somehow they have only $4 million in the bank for fund this construction, after two years and using all of Biden's decades of experience in getting other people's money.  Nobody's grateful that he saved us all from Orange Man.  Nobody wants to honor his accomplishments.

Obama got over a billion dollars for his Presidential Center, you'd think he'd share that with a poorer fellow Democrat.  Biden was far more popular than Obama ever was and had to carry him along for all eight years, you'd think that would get him something.  But I guess Obama's not one of those 'grateful' types.  Maybe he'd have learned something if he'd been Veep first and let Joe be in charge.  His Presidential Center was only supposed to cost $350 million and be open in 2021, look how that worked out.  They can't even attract visitors.

Slightly-more seriously, the party is clearly done with Joe.  They're not even pretending to care what happens to him.  If he can't launder enough money for his library by himself, it ain't happening.  I assume there are rules to prevent it but why not just use his garage?  It's where he kept important documents for years anyway, it would a nice little location, just the public image he promoted over his long career.

As always, I assume we'll never figure out what's going on here but I do think we're watching the party elites ditching each other.  Biden was just a puppet, certainly for the last several years and possibly for his whole career.  Obama probably thought he was in charge but he's being ditched too.  If the government doesn't bail them out, they've got nowhere else to go.  Soon the people they were counting on may be in a similar situation.  The ladder they're climbing is on fire so they need to get away as fast as possible or else they fall.

□ [“DSA Congressional Candidate Says He’s Against Incarceration Except for ‘Lawless MAGA Thugs’"]

Always an exception to leftist beliefs, either special support for people they like or special punishment for people they don't like.  And they're the ones who get to decide who is placed in which category.  We all know this, we've seen it all our lives.  The left keeps finding new suckers to fall for it although I think they are finding a limit these days.  Not sure that's enough to prevent election theft but they are running out of people who see no obvious problem with statements like this.

A lot of this has come out from a lot of the current candidates and my impression is that they're all getting tired.  It's not hard physical labor but it is heavy mental effort and they probably have to do it all day, every day, at least if they want to gain power.  So they're getting worn down which is why more stuff like this comes out.  They don't have anybody around them who sees a problem either.  I've never been in or watched fist fights but I would expect there's a point where you're just flailing out with anything you can because that's the only option.  You're too wounded and tired to come up with anything more sensible.

But God willing, that's not working very well for them at this point.  Then there's the fact that all of them are talking the same way and saying the same things.  They're so opposed to tyranny that they'll punish anyone they don't like as soon as they get power.  They're making themselves much easier to identify and don't even realize that.

During the War on Terror, my theory was that one main reason to occupy Afghanistan and especially Iraq was because the Muslim enemy really didn't know what they were fighting and we needed to provide immediate examples over there so we wouldn't have to fight them over here.  That may have worked out too well, YMMV, but we've effectively done the same thing to the leftist enemy here.  A lot more people are willing to speak out that we don't want any of that and they're just responding that we'll all be put in jail as soon as they get the chance.

□ [“White House Argues With Hillary Clinton About Infamous ‘Fainting’ Episode in 2016"]

It was over ten years ago, how depressing.  I'm pretty sure Hillary knows that she has no chance of ever being elected to anything ever again, fairly or otherwise.  She's turning 79 next week.  But maybe she'll still try, she's surrounded by people who go along with her lies.  They keep talking here about how Trump is always in horrible health.  And yet he keep working constantly, they never bother to explain that part.

I don't think Hillary fainting on 9/11/2016 made much of a difference, other than a convenient clip to show.  It was deliberately made into a show to help Hillary but they've never bothered to explain that.  She didn't go to a hospital or even the health clinic that was right there at Ground Zero, she went to Chelsea's apartment instead which was further away in NYC traffic.  As a candidate, she was being guarded by the Secret Service but they must not have gotten any say in this.  Then she's diagnosed with pneumonia and leaves Chelsea's place a few hours later.  Because of course.  A little girl is standing right outside, waiting to see Hillary because of course.  Hillary immediately grabs her and infests her with pneumonia because she cares that much.

Anyway, I don't think this argument will be a big deal, at least not from the public perspective.  I think this was only brought up while covering Talarico’s 13-day absence from his Texas Senate campaign although it's still a bit weird, why would Hillary be talking about that?  Haven't heard anything from him so I don't even know if he's come back yet, although my guess is he has.  Otherwise he'd have already given up on the campaign which wasn't doing that well anyway.  And that's what Hillary wants to be connected to.

The whole point of this 'no kings' movement is to ignore the queen, the female in the background who doesn't get any blame with things go wrong but demands all the credit when they go right.  It's where modern feminism was built and Hillary has been part of that for decades.  I think that's why she mostly stays out of the public eye but occasionally comes out, as she's been doing recently with several interviews and podcasts.  She's far away from the people she wants to be in charge of and that's the way she likes it.

□ [“SNL’s Michael Che Refuses to Cave as Interviewer Nags Him on Shane Gillis’ Gym Clothes Joke"]

There was something on Saturday Night Live a week ago which has been getting a lot of attention.  I still don't know what this is about because duh, SNL, but to the extent I know anything about it, it's resistance to the *woke* message.  Don't know what or how or why but it's clearly *something.*  Maybe it's just the Al Gore-ithms on my social media but my guess is this was the next big news event in place.

There was Lindsay Clancy, then Lucy Craig and I predicted another one would follow.  Actually there a few other events that have come out around the same time, probably aimed at different voting blocks.  There's SNL where a few pseudo-celebrities are actually refusing to go along with the narrative.  This is also seen with Metallica speaking out that they aren't going to lecture about politics on stage, which has been joined by a few other celebrities.  None of those are relevant to me although at least I've heard about Motley Crew.  There was also a school shooting a couple days ago so 'ban guns' is suddenly getting tons of attention.

There's no way to know how many of these were planned and how much was just to make *something* happen, but it was clearly timed for the mid-term elections.  With Metallica, my guess is they were hit with the pressure to speak out on politics like most celebrities are and they refused to take part.  Effectively they spoke out and said they weren't going to speak out, make of that what you will.  At least Metallica can get away with it.  People on SNL will be forgotten as soon as they leave the show, assuming they were ever known in the first place, and school shootings will happen until Democrats can disarm the population just as they used to disarm blacks.

It's happening slowly but the enemy is becoming easier to define.  Something in their narrative has broken and they haven't figured out how to get around that yet.  That leaves gaslighting which is flooding social media and probably every other place the left thinks they're in charge of.  Even some of their pet media is realizing this is a problem, worried that the polls show Democrats losing big if they can't get enough fake votes counted.  About all that's left is to call everything "racist" which will just push more people away.
