Throwback Thursday: Replace Joe Biden??

NOTE TO READER: There are rumors of a deep chasm developing between 46* and the his VP, and she may or may not be on the way out.  Seems there's some dissin' and racisms goin' on and Kampala and her hired staff of sistas ain't happy.  Biden isn't a stranger to this situation, as he, the clownish court jester of the Obama Administration, was rumored in late 2012 as possibly being dumped as VP before the November election for....I almost can't say her name......Ma Clinton.  As we here at DMF pride ourselves as always having our knee on the pulse of the body politic of America, we threw our Tugs McWilson out on the streets that summer to ask America, "Should Hillary Replace Joe Biden as VP?"

from the Dank Archives of DMF - July 2012
 

Diogenes' Man on the Street Asks:

Should Hillary Replace Joe Biden for VP in 2012 Election?

 

"Absolutely. I do think Obama should replace Biden with Clinton. It can only help his re-election. And if Joe Biden is looking for work, I have use for a guy who can disparage half the population in a single sentence".

Brad Nittwith - Internal Revenue Service

 "No, I don't think Biden should be replaced! Preezy Obama and Joe Biden have done a great job with the economy. Hell, back in 2007 even a King didn't have the luxury of a Vodka and Red Bull mix."
Belinda Twittel - Wal-mart Cashier

"Yes! It's about time we have a woman of Hillary's caliber in high power in this country. After all, she's single handedly brought peace to the Middle East! Suck on that Condie Rice!" 
Shelia Lovett Bigg - Public School Educator

"Means nothing to Faruk! All America is but imperialist infidel running dog jackals that will ultimately feel the sting of Allah's wrath .....Praise Be to Allah!"
Faruk Al Squworme - Taxi Driver

"You axing  Laquita? I don't know how to vote.... but if I did I'd sure nuff vote for Barack cause all the free sh*t  he gets me and my babies wiff my EBT card!.... know what I'm sayin....free cell phones and rolling papers for Dontrell.  Barack gets my 16 year old free sh*t for her two babies too!"
 Laquita Jones - Homemaker

"Get off my sidewalk you #%*+&@+ hate filled rightwing fascist!"
Holota Wadsworth - Women's Reproductive Health Center Director

"Yeah. Hillary is a great Idea. Biden is the ultimate Washington insider. Obama should have picked somebody who knows absolutely nothing about politics. It might be good for Obama seeing that the people voting in the next election are going to be angry, intolerant white people. You would have to be a fool to miss a chance to vote for a beautiful smart lady like Hillary?"
Pat - Famous  Daily Kos Basement Blogger  

"Hillary for Biden? I think it's a great idea! And I really like the idea of a do-over election thing because I totally blew my first vote on Stephen Colbert last time.  I've purposely avoided upward mobility and social progress so I can benefit from all the free money I get from my trust fund."
Lance Farnsworth III - Occupy Wall Street Organizer

"Get out of my way you little worm..... 
 I said get out of my face! I'm gonna..."
Some Angry White Guy

Tell Me Again Who's the Greatest Threat to Democracy.....Example #19

 

“Since my first day in office I have promised Justice Department employees that together we would show the American people by word and deed that the department adheres to the rule of law, follows the facts and the law and pursues equal justice under the law. - Merrick Garland

The precedent set in this case could have serious consequences for press freedom and First Amendment. Unless the government had good reason to believe that Project Veritas employees were directly involved in the criminal theft of the diary, it should not have subjected them to invasive searches and seizures.

We urge the court to appoint a special master to ensure that law enforcement officers review only those materials that are lawfully seized and that are directly relevant to a legitimate criminal investigation....." - ACLU.

"I could not imagine any circumstance in which the Patriot Act would be used in the circumstances of parents complaining about their children, nor … a circumstance where they would be labeled as domestic terrorists. I do not think parents getting angry at school boards for whatever reason constitute domestic terrorism...." - Merrick Garland 

FBI counterterrorism officials are compiling and tracking investigations into “threats” directed at school board members and other school officials, whistleblower documents show.

As the email acknowledges, the new “threat tag” was created in response to Attorney General Merrick Garland’s October 4 memo directing the FBI to crack down on threats directed at school boards and administrators.

The email encourages agents to look for a “federal nexus” in each case and says agents look out for any “potential violations that can be investigated and charged.” Agents should also try and identify the “motive behind the criminal activity.

Merrick Garland LIED Under Oath on Oct.14th

Reading Between the Lines

The Washington Post once called Kamala Harris “the next Barack Obama.” Like Barky, her supporters thought they could shield her from severe criticism by invoking skin color, with her plumbing as backup. But a funny thing happened on her way to the WH - Jill Biden didn't like the way Harris treated her husband in that first debate.  But, the power that be picked her for Joe to be his VP anyway.

Now, this from CNN. Exasperation and dysfunction: Inside Kamala Harris' frustrating start as vice president

"Many in the vice president's circle fume that she's not being adequately prepared or positioned, and instead is being sidelined. The vice president herself has told several confidants she feels constrained in what she's able to do politically. And those around her remain wary of even hinting at future political ambitions, with Biden's team highly attuned to signs of disloyalty, particularly from the vice president...." 

She could be just a year away from launching a presidential campaign of her own, given doubts throughout the political world that Biden will actually go through with a reelection bid in 2024, something he's pledged to do publicly and privately...." Harris is struggling with a rocky relationship with some parts of the White House, while long-time supporters feel abandoned and see no coherent public sense of what she's done or been trying to do as vice president...." 

Defenders and people who care for Harris are getting frantic. When they're annoyed, some pass around a recent Onion story mocking her lack of more substantive work, one with the headline, "White House Urges Kamala Harris To Sit At Computer All Day In Case Emails Come Through."... 

She's perceived to be in such a weak position that top Democrats in and outside of Washington have begun to speculate privately, asking each other why the White House has allowed her to become so hobbled in the public consciousness, at least as they see it...." 

Harris loyalists tell CNN they see in that yet another example of an unfair standard at play, wondering why she didn't get similar cover any of the times she's been attacked by the right...."

Given how fast her 2020 campaign imploded, I have a hard time seeing her even being considered a 2024 possibility if 46* hadn't made her VP. And "everybody knows" that that decision wasn't driven by anyone thinking she'd make a good 2024 Presidential candidate, but because she brought ovaries and melanin to the Biden ticket.

She's always had that Creepy Voodoo Witch in Manolo Blahnik shoes persona. And how anyone thought a woman dumb enough to fuck Montel Williams would turn out to be a good vice president is a mystery.

Macron Knows Him Some Nasty When He Sees It. 🤣

Poor Kamala. She's already reeling from the embarrassment of being dragged on social media for her demented clown cackling not to mention her approval rating hovering just above flaming hemorrhoids, but this had to really burn.

French President Emmanuel Macron bobbed and weaved to avoid giving the unmasked Vice President the traditional kiss on each cheek when they met Wednesday. It’s possible Macron was just not feeling it after the submarine deal got ripped-off.  But believe me, French guys will kiss anything with boobs and a pulse.  So I'm leaning toward Macron was hesitant not knowing where she's been putting that face. 🤭

Throwback Thursday: Reminiscing With Brian Williams.

Brian Williams, the veteran anchor of NBC News, who was busted down to the network's ugly insane step-sister, conspiracy central MSNBC in 2015 after a critical on-air gaffe  he got caught lyin' his ass off numerous times sensationalizing his reporting of events while anchor of “NBC Nightly News”, has announced he will be parting ways with the network's smarmy nest of leftist lunatics and racial bigots. 

So, in the spirit of Throwback Thursdays, we look back on the famous career.....

from the DMF archives of February, 2015

Brian Williams Interviews Mark Twain 

 

It's Their Unholy Alliance That Endangers the Republic.

The events of the past couple of weeks have given pause to many, and in some circles say the present swing of the pendulum's direction has used all it's energy. But even with the embarrassing, epic incompetence we are witnessing in DC, and the current upheaval in the war for the culture, some things will remain constant. 

The Democrats are torn between far left totalitarian instincts on one side and the Liberals' complete political malpractice on the other. Their seething contempt for the conservation of anything valuable and rational in governing remains whole, complete and total. It is psychologically and professionally impossible for anybody on the left to admit the simple truth that the Right has been right about the Left all along because it would mean being forced to eat the seething contempt for all things conservative that has been wired so deeply into their identities for so long.

The result of this crippling and impenetrable psychological block is that is remains imperative to the left sense of self that the right (that'd be you and me) continue to be caricatured as fucking awful humans. 

Everybody knows that the democrat party has been a shitpile of closeted bigots and imbeciles for decades. They sometime do not try very hard to hide it.  Others will contend that because they live in distant and violent land the natives call Blue States, that despite their self proclaimed superior political expertise, the Left are destructive, clueless mopes whose fecklessness may yet topple the republic as we know it.  So it should come as no surprise that the mainstream media has found a comfy chair for every race-baiter or Never Trumper with a book to sell or grift to flog. (lookin' at you Squinty & Meat Puppet)

The American media will never get better. It will just keep getting worse. But why, Diogenes', you ask? Why is it so bad everywhere, from the national media to your local, dying newspaper? How is it that this vast, shambolic, humiliating, and very public failure of our Fourth Estate, a failure that is dragging out democracy down with it,  just goes on and on getting worse and worse?

Simple. Because there are no equally powerful countervailing institutions out there in the world in charge of pushing back against it or in any way holding it accountable. Instead of operating as a vital civic institution the media is basically Facebook's older, stupider cousin, without Facebook's malevolent, precision-guided algorithms designed to prolong "engagement" and keep your eyes on its ads, but with the same "Sponsors Uber Alles" ethos informing every decision.

And the reason nothing can stop it is because, other than catching the occasional fine for saying "fuck" on broadcast teevee, there are no consequences for pumping the public's skulls full of toxic garbage. As for the gory details of how and why the media is everywhere top-heavy with leftist hacks and mopes and frauds, no insider with deep knowledge of the hows and the whys is every going to rat them out. 

There will never be a Joe Valachi of the media, exposing how the business really works to the entire country. Forget the "respectable" press. They're as relentlessly profit-driven as everyone else, and to them those tens of millions of deranged bigots and imbeciles on the Left (and their friends an relatives) are just current or potential customers.  No matter how many buildings the fascist Teefa Soy Boyz burn down, the "respectable" press will always leaven that news with their certainty that some conservative somewhere, real or not, has probably (or will probably) do something just as bad.
