Not well, if he keeps talking the way he does:

Mr. Biden’s rhetoric in particular has been more condemning than unifying. He was right to blame Mr. Trump for contributing to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, but comparing Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz to Joseph Goebbels is Trump-like excess.

His speech writers seem infused with woke ideology, as they cast the riot and most other events in the language of identity politics.

Mr. Biden’s early legislative priorities also seem odd given that he has no great election mandate and a narrowly divided Congress.

Ron Klain, his new White House chief of staff, described the top priorities as addressing four “overlapping and compounding crises”—Covid, the economy, climate and racial justice. The rhetoric of “crisis” is the familiar progressive trope to scare the public into accepting radical change.

With a dollop, of course, of “hope” thrown in.

Ain’t she somethin’.

Hillary Fires Up Russia Hoax Once Again

Yesterday, she tweeted “.@SpeakerPelosi and I agree: Congress needs to establish an investigative body like the 9/11 Commission to determine Trump’s ties to Putin so we can repair the damage to our national security and prevent a puppet from occupying the presidency ever again” (Twitter). From Byron York: There was a House investigation. A Senate investigation. A special prosecutor investigation with the full powers of law enforcement. Obsessive media inquiries. None found what Hillary Clinton wanted to find. So she wants another… (Twitter). From Dan McLaughlin: Reminder: Donald Trump was not even the most vindictive candidate in the 2016 election, & only marginally the most conspiracy-minded (Twitter). From Rich Lowry: They’re never going to give up this conspiracy theory (Twitter).

Uncomfortable for liberals:

Many people — especially politicians and activists — want to take credit for the economic and other advancement of blacks, even though a larger proportion of blacks rose out of poverty in the 20 years before 1960 than in the 20 years afterwards.

But no one wants to take responsibility for the policies and ideologies that led to the breakup of the black family, which had survived centuries of slavery and generations of discrimination.

Oh that black-family problem . . .

Keep ’em happy.

“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.” – Frank Zappa

Then?

Behold logo for a very good site, fyi.

Or as my dear dad used to say, in the long run, we’ll all be dead. Also: In a hundred years, nobody will know the difference. Perspective, people, perspective.

In the meantime, let’s all concentrate on impeaching Biden, OK?

Whole thing has aura of a Greek tragedy.

Trump’s term before the election was marked by a remarkable set of accomplishments. He cut taxes and enacted serious deregulation that sparked the economy, led to an increase in wages not seen in decades, and created a foundation for more growth after the disaster of COVID. He appointed three Supreme Court justices and a slew of appeals court judges that were a dream come true for conservatives. He made significant progress toward peace in the Middle East. He strengthened the military. He made progress on illegal immigration. Finally, he pushed and cajoled and pressured pharmaceutical companies to create a COVID vaccine with a speed that many did not believe was possible.

Of course Democrats fought Trump every step of the way and began the work to remove him from office before he even took office. And Trump made all sorts of missteps. But the record is the record, and it is an impressive list of achievements.

And then, after November 3, one disaster after another.  With the exception of the vaccine, everything Trump did after the election has led to catastrophe for himself, the Republican Party, and the nation. It did not have to be that way. Trump’s refusal to accept the results of the election led to a series of events that cast a shadow on everything he accomplished before.

Tragedy is when the virtue of the hero becomes his downfall. The tragic flaw asserts itself. The whole man, warts and all, succeeded. And the whole man, warts and all, led him astray at the very end.

Mediums have their ways.

Cuomo seems to really be enjoying the power he has seized during the pandemic and is loath to let it go. But New York’s vaccination disaster can’t stay hidden for long. On Tuesday, New York Times reporter J. David Goodman pointed out that ‘fewer people were vaccinated in New York City this Monday than last Monday.’

How can this be?

Bureaucratic incompetence and a governor who is given a regular pass by the media is how. If the media could just pretend that Cuomo is a Republican, surely they’d get to the bottom of it.

Easy peasy.

Finally.

According to journalist and Trump insider John Solomon, the documents would be released as soon as Friday, but no later than Monday.
“He has delivered in a big way. More than a foot-high stack of documents he has authorized to be released by the FBI and the DOJ. These are the things that the FBI has tried to keep from the public for 4 years. They have amazing, big picture revelations,” Solomon told Fox News’ “Lou Dobbs Tonight.”
According to Solomon‘s website, Just The News, the release will support claims that the entire Russia narrative was created and leaked to the news media to upstage concerns over Hillary Clinton’s email scandal.

Now see how quickly the mainstream (Democratic) media covers it. Or doesn’t.

Nice timing, I’ll say that for her.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the newly elected Republican from Georgia, is a spitfire. She has gotten in Democrats’ faces over wearing masks on the House floor and has been utterly fearless in standing up for what she believes is right. She went on Twitter Wednesday to announce that she will be filing tit-for-tat articles of impeachment against President-elect Joe Biden a day after his inauguration. That’s historic and well-deserved.

Has a sore point to touch on:

“I would like to announce on behalf of the American people, we have to make sure that our leaders are held accountable. We cannot have a president of the United States that is willing to abuse the power of the office of the presidency and be easily bought off by foreign governments, foreign Chinese energy companies, Ukrainian energy companies,” said Greene.

“So on January 21st, I will be filing articles of impeachment on Joe Biden,” she added.

Against the odds, I venture to say.
