Sandbox – 2mar21

[The rabid Left is now advising all who would listen across the land not to hire or have anything to do with people who were part of the Trump administration.  And sure enough, that aspect of our now-arrived cancel culture is taking hold.  Today many of the Left’s lackies are publicly putting such people on their permanently banned list (part of their national unity campaign).  But how would it be if those of the counter-cancel culture grew some balls and started advertising for employees whose desiderata showed they had been a part of Trump’s administration - if not on the WH staff, then in one of the cabinet level departments or other agencies that were led by political appointees who brought along their high level colleagues and former staffers to help administer the federal bureaucracies calcified with thousands of career leftwingers?  If they can do it, why can’t we?  gjr]

Biden Pulls Neera Tanden Nomination For OMB: Report

Hmmm....I guess being a friend of Hillary isn't what it once was......sad

[Bill Tozer]

@ 4:08 pm
Boy, did Ms. Tandon ever piss off both the left and the right. A come together moment with our Bernie Bros.

The ‘mean tweets’ (just like Trump did!!!) she sent out to....to.....to.....Mitt and Lisa and other members of, as time would tell, the exact Committee that she needs to confirm her nomination is just icing on the cake, lol. She was done before the tweets became public. A true Nasty Woman. How she made some many enemies on both sides of the aisle on her way up is astonishing. And now, she meets them all again on her way back down.

Cue Wile E Coyote with anvil in arms looking down beyond the edge of the clif, those big eyes, watch Wile E descend at a very high rate of speed. Puff of smoke on the desert floor. Darn, girl.

****Undecided Murkowski finds out Tanden tweeted mean things about her through a reporter****
'No offense but this sounds like you’re high on your own supply' Tanden tweeted about Murkowski in 2017

“High on my own supply, that's interesting should I ask her? My own supply of what?" Murkowski said as Washington Post reporter Seung Min Kim showed her the tweet.

"See that goes to show how much homework I still have to do on her if I didn't even know that she had sent out a tweet about me," Murkowski said.

re: Tanden time. Interesting take; one man’s opinion

CIVIL WAR ON THE LEFT (77): NEERA MISS EDITION

“When I first heard of her nomination, I immediately defaulted to the cynical view that the Biden inner circle intended her all along to be the lightning rod for the nomination pool—as the sacrificial nominee, since every incoming president loses one or two nominees. Politico reported several days ago that there was no serious White House lobbying or outreach for Tanden, which is not the kind of omission you expect from a DC veteran like Ron Klain. Tanden’s ritual sacrifice makes it easier to pressure Joe Manchin to vote for the much more important HHS post for Xavier Beccera, a much worse person than Tanden. If Manchin supports Becerra, I’ll say that Biden’s strategy (or more likely COS Ron Klain’s strategy) has worked like a charm.”

https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/03/civil-war-on-the-left-77-neera-miss-edition.php

A common theme is emerging. Smells like the proposed gun control bill(s) from the WH. Most of the items are so absurd, so blatantly unconstitutional on its face that one rolls their eyes and says, “No way.” And when one considers that the Dems NO NOT want any gun bill to make it to SCOTUS where they probably will buy the farm and quite possibly be the coffin nail to the gun grabber movement by SCOTUS, one has to wonder why is Team Biden is tossing it out there.

Maybe Ron Klain is parading out sacrificial lambs to appease AOC and little Piglet, but maybe there is another strategy in play. Boy, are those at the real control of the Swamp’s power levers are making their moves.

Well, it looks like the C-19 relief bill will not dish out $100,000,000 (100 million) to build the Silicone Valley underground subway train.

On true C-19 relief (350-400 billion out of the nearly two trillion bill), the Stimilus checks will phrase out from a limit to those individuals making 100k a year to now those making $80,000 per year.

So far, the 25 million to Pakastain for LBGTQQ training is still in, along with bailing out the Kennedy Center's orchrester big wigs.

Walt writes: "Emery sure has been hiding since his hero got to be prez."

Actually not much to talk about Walt. Biden is cruising in popularity while the Repubs run and hide and amazingly still support Trump, the biggest political loser since the 1800's. He's the gift that keeps on giving to the Dems. Biden has the covid shots rolling and way ahead of his own optimistic schedule. The economy is set to rebound showing once again it takes the Dems to pull us out of the wreck and ruin left by Repub Presidents that trash the economy on their way out the door. This time it only too four years.

Ruminations has become tedious and boring and kinda pathetic in their allegiance to Trump and MAGA, whatever that is (when was the "again" that they are wanting to return to by the way).

Trump was almost as high as Biden last week for their respective time periods.

I am most grateful that Punch has repeatedly played his endless loop, “Trump is the worse President since the 1800’s”, over and over again. Just a few weeks ago, Punch could remember the exact year in the 1800s, lol.
I am most grateful because that means that Trump was not the worse President in our nation’s history. Good news and debunks the narrative that Orange Man Bad was the worse of all time. So, who was worse than Trump way back when? Thomas Jefferson, who personally prosecuted Arron Burr as sitting President? Was it that guy who had a whiskey distillery and rolled out the barrels for his band of merry supporters, George Washington? Andrew Jackson, the founder of modern Democrat Party? Maybe it’s a tie!

Anyway, I am glad that we are number two. We are handling it a whole big wide universe better than when Punch’s side was #2. Always a silver lining. We got over our let down in quick order. Unfortunately, the Left is still going through their letdown of Biden winning and are jonesing for their two minutes of hate. Some are feeling quite empty on the Left. No use trying to satisfy them, they will always moan and groan about something. Take that to the banks. Debbie Downers acting like Karens.

Truly the pony tail of ignorance what a hoot. -

Despite a grotesquely bias and coddling press, President Biden’s approval rating is tanking. President Biden’s approval rating is lower than President Trump’s at the same point in his presidency. Imagine what President Biden’s approval rating would be if the MSM treated him the same way they treated President Trump? What would President Biden’s approval rating be if the mainstream media was covering his awful America-last policies objectively? It’s disgusting.

In its first full-month rating from 10,000 likely voters, the latest Rasmussen Reports poll has Biden with a 50 percent job approval rating and a 47 disapproval rating.
At this stage of his presidency, Trump had a 51 percent approval rating, with 49 percent disapproving in the Rasmussen one-month evaluation. As of Tuesday, Rasmussen’s daily Biden approval is 49 percent.

‘FBI official: No shots fired by rioters, no firearms recovered during siege on U.S. Capitol’

https://justthenews.com/government/congress/senate-hold-second-hearing-security-failures-leading-capitol-siege

Yeah, some insurrection.
—————
And now, a conspiracy theory!!

How long does it take the world’s greatest LE agency to release an autopsy?? I saw a few episodes of ‘Bones’ before cutting the cord. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has among the best forensic experts, the best well staffed state-of-the-art the art labs, etc. The FBI’s crime labs are the go-to place for evidence to be sent to throughout the known world.

So, where is the autopsy report on the fallen Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick? Help me out here. What year is this? Is this the medical system of 1870? Or is this the year 2021.

The initial medical examine by LE showed no sign of blunt force trauma. Even the NYT had to a subtle clarification that it wasn’t the fire extinguisher. The thrown fire extinguisher did not involve Officer Sicknick. All the King’s horses and all the King‘s men viewing hundreds of hours of surveillance and cell phone footage and interviewing fellow officers and citizens on the ground not only have been UNABLE to find the any incident on Jan. 6 or even know who to charge for murder.

Sicknick’s family certainly believes it was a stroke. Being immediate family, they might have seen the initial medical exams or have been shown some autopsy reports or infor the rest of us are not privy to. Last sentence is speculation on my part. Still, the family believes it was a stroke.

Sicknick’s Tweets to loved ones after the Capitol riot were upbeat, light hearted and showed no cause for alarm.
‘Hey folks, only got pepper sprayed three times today, I’m fine, all in a day’s work, :) see ya soon.” ,....paraphrased.

So why, 60 days later, no one has a clue about what cause the death of Sickwell when he returned to cop shop after his shift?

Swamp Thang Comey....er....Director Wrey says he wish he knew. Right... I believe they know. They know alright. But they will keep a lid on it for however long they can because it does not fit their political narrative. political expediency from our trusted government institutions.
Makes them look bad if/ when the report shows that the only person killed during The Insurrection was an unarmed woman, killed y a bullet to the side of her throat fired by one Capitol Police Officer. The deceased was DOA as soon as she dropped to the floor.

Wrey ain’t touching the Sickwell question with a ten foot stolen pole.

ON March 3 2017 Trump was down by 4 in RCP consensus polling. Same date this year Biden is up by over 15 in the same poll. Almost 20 points difference.

Here's a link to the 2017 March 3 poll

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president_trump_job_approval-6179.html#!

[Bill Tozer]

Well, there he goes again.

“That's Trumps legacy and you actually think he will win again in four years.”

Assumption does make an ASS out of U and ME. Odd, I never though nor currently think that Trump will run again in four years, not to mention winning in 2024. Don’t see it happening, albeit seeing Trump at CPAC with his command and boundless energy compared to today’s Joe Biden...well, it is breathtaking in the stark relief of the two. But, Trump will be Biden’s age in 2024, way to old for the demands of the job. Still, that Trump is a non-stop energy machine, but a Trump in 2024 speculation I have not entertained. I have entertained the idea of Pence in 2024. Honorable humble man.

MAGA is a set of policies, principles, and.....well, like you said just three hours and a few minutes ago, “ and MAGA, whatever that is.....”, so I need not continue.

Sometime try just once to separate issues and policies from the personality. That way you can comment on current events. Like free speech issues, religious freedom issues, right to free association (kinda hard with cancel culture going on. I might have once laughed at an Steinfield episode featuring that racist Kramer. That could get one erased from free association nowadays, especially people who liked some lame FB comment 12 years ago.). Issues, constitutional stuff, public education, efficient government, lots of issues. A plethora of political and cultural issues to be bantered about. But, noooo.

Full disclosure. I laughed until my sides hurt seeing Blazing Saddles on the big screen. My date, a red headed Irish woman, flipped off the movie screen when the townspeople where debating to allow the blacks in but keep out the Irish.

For all the endless talk about the dog whistles Trump sends out since he announced in 2015, the word Trump is a dog whistle to the Left. Can’t seem to focus on anything else. And whats up with the Leftinistas running amok out there hiding behind their masks and hoods??

Lets start with his handling and distribution of the Covid vaccine after Trumps dismal failure to fulfill his promise of 100 million vaccines by Dec.

"President Donald Trump promised to have 100 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine prepared by the end of 2020, but only 2.1 million doses have been administered thus far. Production delays may have severely undercut the actual number of manufactured doses to about half of Trump's pledged amount."

Also his spearheading leadership for the Covid Aide bill set to pass within days. Trump advocated for $2000 financial assistance but couldn't get it passed. Biden will succeed at that.

[George Rebane]

PaulE 1047am - What promise? You and I have profoundly different definitions for 'promise'. Trump made C19 vaccines possible in the 20-21 timeframe, for that alone he should become a Nobel laureate. And I didn't agree with Trump's $2,000 checks, nor do I agree with anyone who subsequently promises to send out such stimulus when we still have $1T of unspent previous stimulus.

"On day one".
How's that work'n for ya' Emery?

It was Trump not Biden that didn't spend the $1T in stimulus. Do you know why that is?

You sure didn't speak out about your opposition to the $2000 stimulus when Trump was Pres but not it's a big deal. Curious about your line of thinking that matter. Biden fulfilled Trumps policy or soon will.

[George Rebane]

PaulE 1118am - Actually, it has been the states that have not spent the money available to them under Dem drafted stimulus package. Re timing my opposition - there are too many things that I support and oppose for me to comment on all of them. My stated policy on such 'stimulus spending' is a matter of record in these pages, and it most certainly covers opposition to air-dropping such checks across the land (remember how effective was 'Helicopter Ben' Bernanke with his checks?).

Now that Grampa Joe wants to blow through two trillion (there is also discussion about a further 4 trillion after Joey Fingers bails out democrat cities abysmal fiscal management policies....congrats....taxpayers across the country will be paying the bloated pensions of Illinois state employees. So make sure to shake all the coins out of your guitar case Uncle Sugar is going to need them!) you are completely sanguine about it.

The investigation began after Paterson City Councilman Alex Mendez, won the May special election to fill a council seat. Voter fraud claims soon surfaced, however. The U.S Postal Inspection Service alerted Grewal’s office that “numerous” mail-in ballots were found stuffed in a Haledon mailbox. Hundreds of mail-in ballots were also discovered stuffed in a Paterson mailbox, according to Grewal’s announcement.

Grewal charged Mendez, Paterson City Councilman Michael Jackson and two others in June.

Mendez allegedly approached multiple voters in Paterson – where he was running for office – to collect their official mail-in ballots for delivery. Grewal’s office alleged Mendez delivered the ballots to the Passaic County Board of Elections “without information identifying the bearer, in violation of state election laws.”"

I was noting the hypocrisy fish of the Trumpers who were also Tea Partiers who were so much against deficit spending but never said a peep about the $7 Trillion debt that Trump ran up in just 4 years, an all time record. Probably over $8 Trillion when you add in his bill for the Pandemic relief that he supported in early Jan before he was tossed out of left. Remember he gave huge tax breaks for the rich with just chump change for the working class.

Trump inherited a steady growth economy from Obama who inherited a trashed economy from Bush. Trump then ran it into the ground. No wonder he lost the election.

Your pals in RED China gave you your wildest desire. What else could ruin Trump's great national revival? You even got states to break their own election laws. "Mail in ballots" the best way to rig an election.. No chain of custody. No ID's to worry about.

Quotes

Insight: “Government will not fail to employ education to strengthen its hands and perpetuate its institutions.” —William Godwin (1756-1836)

Upright: “The authors of the Constitution worried that Congress would try to seize control of presidential selection using dirty tricks like those in HR 1. … The framers provided in Article II, Sec. 1 that only state legislatures would have the power to determine how the president is chosen. No national rules. But Pelosi has no qualms about trashing the Constitution to kneecap her opponents.” —Betsy McCaughey

For the record: “Election reform is a national imperative, but under our Constitution, election reform must be undertaken at the state level. Our Founders limited Congress’ role in conducting our elections for good reason: They wanted elections to be administered closest to the people, free from undue influence of the national government.” —Mike Pence

Re: The Left: “New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is calling for the state legislature to revoke Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s emergency powers, joining nine Democrats as well as the state’s Republicans in doing so. … But why now? … Sexual harassment is indeed terrible, particularly from a position of authority, and especially from a position of public trust. A proven charge stands alone as reason to fire a man. But what about spending months lying and blaming others for 15,000 deaths in vulnerable elderly care facilities? Was that not enough to immediately end emergency authorities when it was exposed and then admitted? … The real reason for Cuomo’s coming fall are that power and ambition have seen weakness and smelled blood. Just as Attorney General Cuomo once took down a wounded Spitzer, a man who had called himself 'a f–king steamroller,‘ before taking his place, a weakened Cuomo now finds himself in the cross-hairs.” —Christopher Bedford

A trip down memory lane: “The recent revelations about sexual assault and harassment pervasive in our society are most disturbing. We are leading the way forward with the nation’s most comprehensive reform package.” —Andrew Cuomo, March 19, 2018

That didn’t age well: “Too many women are sexually assaulted while in college. Joined @NYGuvCuomo to discuss why #EnoughIsEnough!” —Nancy Pelosi in 2015

Race bait I: “Retail pharmacies told to prioritize vaccinating teachers but not getting extra supply. This means taking vaccine away from higher-risk persons & communities of color to vaccine young healthy teachers. This is an ANTI-EQUITY move. Teachers skew white.” —Celine Gounder, who served on Team Biden’s COVID-19 Advisory Board

Race bait II: “We have to call out the privilege behind the largely white wealthy parents driving the push for a rushed return [to in-person learning].” —United Teachers Los Angeles President Cecily Myart-Cruz

And last… “Just remember Cardi B’s 'WAP’ was NPR’s song of the year, but Dr. Seuss books are offensive.” —Lisa Daftari

I am sorry folks, but you have to be a citizen to vote. Or, we can trust and not verify. Boy, are they ever trying to cram this through In warp speed.

Pelosi’s H.R. 1 Is an Authoritarian Outrage

https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/03/pelosis-h-r-1-is-an-authoritarian-outrage/

“What Pence failed to mention in his op-ed is that the bill would also mandate 15 days of early voting, automatic voter registration, and online voter registration. It would compel states to count ballots cast by voters who are in the wrong precincts, prohibit election officials from reviewing the eligibility of voters, and bar officials from removing ineligible voters from the rolls. It would create a Soviet-sounding “Commission to Protect Democratic Institutions” to circumvent the judicial system.

Now, even if you support some of these proposals on a state level, most of them didn’t exist in any state a few years ago.“

Biden is cruising

AP poll puts Biden job approval at 60 percent

Other public polling published this week has shown Biden with similar margins of support.

A solid majority of Americans say they approve of President Joe Biden’s early job performance, according to a new survey, with even more respondents giving him positive marks for his management of the coronavirus pandemic.

The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll released Friday reports that 60 percent of U.S. adults surveyed approve of Biden’s handling of his job, including 94 percent of Democrats and 22 percent of Republicans.

Hint1: You can bet the ranch that 94% of Democrats have no clue about Bumblebrain's 'accomplishments', most certainly not their disastrous impact on our lives. Hint2: I asked you a question.

"“If an eruption occurs, it would likely mark the beginning of such a [volcanic] period – lasting a few centuries, I believe,” states Magnús Á. Sigurgeirsson, geologist at ÍSOR Iceland GeoSurvey - a consulting and research institute in the field of geothermal sciences and utilization.

“That’s at least how it has been the past three times, and even dating further back, but we don’t have as exact data available on that,” he tells mbl.is . He is referring to the uncertainty regarding whether an eruption can be expected soon on the Reykjanes peninsula, Southwest Iceland."

George asks me: "Do you believe that there are 60% of Americans who even know what Biden has done in his "early job performance"?

George, I think it's mainly a question of character that influences people although Bidens handling of the covid vaccine distribution has met with general satisfaction. A rebound of the economy will then follow and is already starting to be evident. George, remember when "character" was an important issue during Bush vs Clinton in '92? What is your opinion of Trumps character?

[Walt]

Just what has Biden done Emery? (Jack shit is the answer)
Biden is riding Trump's coattails.
Remember? your happy with all of Biden's ending of Trump achievements. From killing jobs, to raising prescription drug prices.
C"mon ol' boy.. cheer for the high fuel prices... You got what you wanted.

[Walt]

Yup, it's STILL Trump's economy.
"Carney: Donald Trump Left Us With A Much Stronger Economy Than Anyone Thought

"the economic picture has failed to live up to the “dark winter” that President Joe Biden said America was facing. Instead, the weight of the economic data demonstrates that the economy at the tail end of the Trump administration was far stronger than it was given credit for."

Sorry LIBS,, Biden and LIBS have done nothing to help the economy,, But have done plenty to put a boot on its neck.

PaulE 1107pm - First, thanks for the answer. Re character: I believe Biden to be one of the finest snake oil salesman in America. The lamestream has burnished his 'character' to an extent that no Democrat knows of his actual (non)accomplishments or the influence peddling corruption that he and his family have used to make their fortune. So naturally, Bumblebrain keeps coming across as a kindly old gentleman whose copy has been and will be managed to a fare-thee-well by his handlers. That deficit is the prime reason that his will continue as the most opaque and disastrous administration, far eclipsing Obama's record. For the nation's light readers all this comes across in an aura of expertly manufactured 'character'.

Given the record in these pages, there is little more that I can say about Trump's character - it starts out with bad optics which he constantly reinforces, and from there day-in day-out it continues to be amplified and even distorted by the lamestream

I wonder how our liberal neighbors are tracking the Big Lie that our southern border is not in crisis and out of control. With our president violating his constitutional duty to secure the nation, and instead opening the border to INVITE hundreds of thousands (cum millions) of aliens to illegally cross our borders and disappear into our hinterland, only to re-emerge at some not-so-distant future time with their hands out seeking to get first in line for every imaginable benefit that our tax payers can buy, and then be put on the path to citizenship as the cherry on the cake. And our pea-brain progressives identify and sell these illegal aliens as some kind of undocumented and deserving immigrants to whom America owes an unending debt and responsibility. In the meantime our black citizens continue to be bamboozled by their Democrat plantation masters who convince them that all these new Hispanics will have no impact on their own fortunes which are again sinking now that Trump is gone.

To anyone here besmirching the character of one Donald J. Trump remember this - he brought two new ideals under the umbrella of conservative family values. Divorce and adultery. That’s right. He cheated on his first wife with his second, his second with his third and her with a pornstar! To be forever known as the hat trick of integrity...top that Joe Biden! Also he cheats at golf...nuff said.

During his opening monologue on Thursday, Fox News’s Tucker Carlson excoriated the ongoing military occupation of Washington, D.C. and explained why it’s still there and what has liberals so fearful.

While the left is admittedly scared of pretty much everything, he acknowledged, fear of “the other” has them most wound up now.

“When you’re a liberal, the world is a very scary place, but there is one fear that rises above all other fears in the liberal mind: The fear of “the other.” Like all primitive cultures, modern liberalism is tribal,” he said. “Liberals understand most of the American continent as a mysterious dark space, like a medieval map populated by drooling Trump voters and violent illiterates with extra chromosomes.

“Liberals despise people like this, of course, and on some level, they know they’re hated right back,” he continued. “They worry that someday there will be a backlash against the people in charge, which, of course, is them. That’s their biggest fear, a peasant revolt.”

And so, D.C. looks like Baghdad’s Green Zone, he said.

The left and right were fully prepared for another “insurrection” on March 4, but like a child fearful of the monster in the closet, the threat wasn’t real.

Not a single weapon found except the horns on that screwballs helmet.......progressives wetting themselves over an "armed insurrection"!

I remember a time when the left wasn't comprised primarily of pearl clutching pussies!

......the good old days!
