Media AGAIN Quickly Herded Away From Biden/Harris Event

Apparently there was a “signing ceremony” of sorts earlier today where presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden appeared alongside his vice presidential running mate Sen. Kampala Harris so they could sign documents “related to accepting the party’s nomination at next week’s Democratic National Convention.”

According to the New York Post, the event was “tightly controlled” and lasted for a whopping total of two minutes. As it turns out, calling it “tightly controlled” was a bit of an understatement.

After the staged event was over Biden’s handlers quickly moved to shoo reporters out of the room as they tried to ask questions of both Biden and Harris. Judging by the clip, it looks as though the journalists in attendance were all but literally shoved closely together behind some sort of curtain as the event concluded.

The Voodoo Queen looks tense and has a smile plastered to her face as though she’s gritting her teeth and wants to say something but can’t. Biden appears to still be signing his documents as the reporters are being shuffled away. (he probably forgot to take the cap off the pen)

This and yesterday's event go along way to prove the point that a lot of Republicans including DJT have made about how the Biden campaign has used the pandemic as an excuse to keep him confined to the basement so they can better control the message since he tends to blurt out things as his mouth outruns it's supply line. The longer this goes on, the more frustrated the media are going to get and the more it will lend credence to the claims made by the Trump campaign and others that the Biden campaign is trying to hide something.

Biden’s Deputy Campaign Manager Thanks Reporters for the Great Team Work!

I don't think you were supposed to say that part out loud, Cupcake.....

Shoutout to all of our beat reporters for surviving some of the most painful news cycles of any presidential campaign. Virtual high five to all of you. We did it, guys. 🎉

Not even a pretense of non-partisanship. Top notch operation. And Kamala's former press secretary now hall monitor for twitter, that's not going to be biased at all.
So, now comes the hard part for you team players - covering for Joe Biden on a debate stage without cue cards or a teleprompter. Just put your mask on and don't ask questions.

Leftist Infected State Dept. Guts DJT's Executive Order to Curb Fortune 500’s Visa Workers

Breitbart - The State Department is allowing Fortune 500 companies to freely import H-1B visa workers for jobs needed by American voters, despite President Donald Trump’s June 22 Executive Order barring nearly all visa workers.

“They have totally eviscerated the requirements” of Trump’s E.O., said John Miano, a lawyer with the Immigration Reform Law Institute. “There is no doubt about it — whoever created this is thumbing their noses at President Trump,” he said, adding, “you can bet that the guys who did this are voting for [Joe] Biden.”

‘This is an insult to the President of the United States, it is an insult to working men and women of the United States,” said Kevin Lynn, the founder of U.S. Tech Workers. There are less than 90 days to go in the election. How can he persuade Americans he’s keeping any of this 2016 promises if he allows the State Department to nullify and gut the E.O. he signed to protect Americans from [outsourcing by Fortune 500 companies]? More than that — I think it is beginning to make Trump look stupid in front of the voters.

On June 22, Trump signed another Executive Order to close down the pipeline of white-collar H-1B, J-1, and L-1 workers, as well as the pipeline of H-2B manual laborers. The E.O. is expected to temporarily bar the arrival of perhaps 80,000 H-1Bs, plus thousands of J-1s and L-1s, while hundreds of thousands of new graduates and fired professionals look for jobs. Trump also directed his agency deputies to write new regulations that would reduce the Fortune 500’s widespread use of visa workers as cheap labor replacements for American voters.

Trump’s intervention to save U.S. white collar jobs is very popular among millions of American voters whose futures are threatened by the Fortune 500’s preference for docile and cheap visa workers. The CEO’s workforce policy keeps at least 1.3 million foreign graduates in U.S. jobs, even amid the dramatic economic crash caused by China’s coronavirus. What good is a State Department that becomes the tool of corporations that want to displace Americans, when tens of millions of Americans are under extreme financial duress?”

Just a note. When you hear Biden/Kampala 2020 talk about helping families and creating good paying jobs for Americans, just remember this:

Sen Kamala Harris is a product of Silicon Valley's billionaires and will enforce their agenda in DC.
Eg, she's an author of the S.386 bill that allows the Fortune 500 to hire more white-collar workers from India for jobs needed by America's college grads https://t.co/gKCuD9DH5z

Given the media’s obsession with style, race, and gender, we would do well to understand what agenda lurks behind Harris’s atmospherics. The reality: if Biden/Kampala 2020 wins, the tech oligarchy, the titans of today’s Gilded Age, will have achieved commanding influence, not just in the information business and the media, but in the White House as well.

Dem Operatives Sign a Missive That Warns What Media Message Must Be

Tammy Bruce - An actual memo went out from an ad hoc group of Democratic operatives (pretending to be advocates for women) to media organizations with orders on how to proceed with their coverage. The fact that they expected this partisan missive to be accepted and adhered to by media entities tells you all you need to know about the problem with today’s legacy media.

Media organizations have just been warned by the Democratic Party machine that they better be very, very careful with how they cover Joe Biden’s vice presidential choice — just revealed to be Kamala Harris. Any criticism of the expected woman will be considered racist and sexist, we are told. Oh, they wrap up that threat in a word salad, but that’s the bottom line: There should be second and even third thoughts about any criticism of Mr. Biden’s VP pick.

For decades, the Democrats have enjoyed a pliant media. Ranging from covering up for John F. Kennedy’s affairs, to ignoring Hillary Clinton’s health and corruption issues during the 2016 race, the media certainly have never needed such a public reminder about their duty to handle a Democratic politician like a fragile, and special, golden egg. So why now? Because identity politics demands it, and with news now disseminated beyond the broadcast networks and just a few loyal newspapers, Democrats need to reinforce the need for media protection in order to gaslight the public about their real agenda and inherent incompetence.

Hiding Mr. Biden in a basement has been absurdly accepted by the media. Unable to toss Ms. Harris into a literal basement, they’re now trying to construct a virtual bunker for her.

The implication of the memo was any critical coverage deemed unfair (and all would be deemed so) will be declared racist and/or sexist. They even invoke George Floyd’s name for extra impact, “Our country — and your newsrooms — have learned a lot since the [death of George Floyd while in Minneapolis police custody] and the subsequent protests for racial equality that his death spurred … We know from public reporting that many of your newsrooms had internal conversations about your coverage, your diversity and your editorial judgments,” it read in part.

“A woman VP candidate, and possibly a Black or Brown woman candidate, requires the same kind of internal consideration about systemic inequality as you undertook earlier this year …” They write, “We are here to help you with this challenge … We intend to collectively and individually monitor coverage and we will call out those we believe take our country backwards with sexist and/or racist coverage. As we enter another historic moment, we will be watching you.”

That’s subtle. Said no one ever.

David Axelrod: Biden Really Wanted The Plastic Face Lady.

Joe Biden is not running for President. Not really, anyway. Sure, he won the nomination even after having his clock cleaned in every primary debate, but he’s not the actual candidate. Those democrat sheeple who in November go into the voting booth and pull the “Biden” lever will be voting for someone else. People can argue about who that person is.  Perhaps it’s the machine behind the shady Obama/Jarrett alliance and their shadowy consortium of left wing donors & far left activist. Whoever it is, it’s not Joe. If that sounds a bit outrageous on my part, just think back at all we've learned about our intelligence community activities the last few years. 

Joe is an empty hollowed out shell of a himself, that priceless court jester of the past, who’s never had an original thought, despite being in politics since 1973.  Someone decided Kampala The Voodoo Queen is in, Plastic Face Lady Gretchen Whitmer is out, and the choice was most likely never his to make.

According to David Axelrod, if Biden had his druthers, Michigan might have been rid of its capricious, out-of-control Governor:

Others Biden considered may have fit more comfortably into partnership with him. He reportedly clicked well with Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, but she would not have fulfilled the desire of those who prioritized a candidate of color.

“More comfortably” is a severe understatement. Harris has a LOT of baggage, and you can rest assured we’ll get to all of it in the coming days. Whether it’s her nightmare tenure as an authoritarian prosecutor, her disastrous performance in the primaries, the fact that she believes Joe Biden’s sexual assault accuser, or her family history with slavery, she’s not exactly what unbiased observers would call a “do no harm” pick. She’s going to have some splainin' to do, and she brings a surprising amount of negatives to the table.

But the selection of Kampala is being framed as some kind of fulfillment of the desires of "black women," but it would be more accurately framed as a fulfillment of the desires of Dem elites/donors/pundits who have boosted the Voodoo Queen for years. Last week a liberal group named “We Have Her Back” sent out a warning to media outlets everywhere saying that they would “monitor [election] coverage and we will call out those we believe take our country backward with sexist and/or racist coverage. As we enter another historic moment, we will be watching you.”  

The simple fact is; anyone who thinks this was actually Joe Biden’s decision is either insane, Joe Biden, or both. Harris’s selection is party politics through and through. She, like the former VP, will be a puppet who dances for the power behind the scenes. Her image will be rehabbed, her positions will belong to someone else, and she, like the presidential candidate, will do as she’s told.

Now, pay close attention who is picked as his cabinet members......

Tater is Upset People Being Mean to Joe Biden

After the last four years, either Tater's been out in the sun too long or this is the worst case of lack of self awareness this year so far........

CNN's @brianstelter highlights a common theme as right-wing talk radio shows target presidential candidate Joe Biden. “There’s a lot of negative partisanship that happens on the left as well … but it’s especially extreme, especially vitriolic on the right, directed at Joe Biden" pic.twitter.com/v2m2DTZWNv

Note to Tater: Biden on a bicycle is nothing to hang an argument on that he's mentally fit to be President. My neighbor's four year old who can't tie their own shoes and doesn't know when his pants are on inside out can ride a bicycle!
