[With the sans-mea-culpa discovery of Hunter Biden’s emails by the leftwing media, we now have a widely available example of how the Dems impacted the 2020 election without necessarily messing with the ballot stuffing and vote counting itself.  As Bryan Caplan (Myth of the Rational Voter) showed some years back, the media can readily impact the outcome through the mass swaying of votes by how it covers and covers up news that shape voters’ attitudes.  You cannot censor lies without also censoring truth – it was ever thus.  gjr]

re: BillT@10:02AM

That makes me wonder what the real overlap is between administrations and mid-term Congressional elections in terms of shared interest.

If you are the President (well, the people in the Biden administration as they navigate 'Weekend at Bidens'), the important thing is to remain President, at all costs. Artificially juicing the economy, bombing furriners, swinging the captive MSM into action, has a four year cycle.

The most disrupting article I read was a couple years back that some IVY League Law School was dropping a course on rape because the subject matter was too triggering, too traumatizing, too violent for the Law students. So, you are falsely accused of rape and can’t find a IVY League attorney to defend you or an IVY League prosecutor than cannot bring themselves up to the task of going after a rapist? How about homicide? Too traumatizing for the class? No much violence? Makes the cream puffs feel bad?

Meanwhile, some of those Democrat politico experts are seeing distrubing trends in both the swing states and now the Dems are losing the hearts and minds of those in the suburbs. Things will be more in focus after the midterms. Nothing like opening a can of Whoop Ass to get their attention. As if Virginia isn't a battle cry for the pitchfolked and broom carrying mob to clean the place out....well, just keep doing what you are doung and you will keep getting what you are getting.

Fox News Poll: Biden's inflation troubles persist as voters cite high gas prices, spending woes
More domestic oil drilling favored by three-quarters of voters

An overwhelming majority says rising gas prices are a problem for their family.

Over half of voters think inflation is "not at all" under control and views on the economy remain decidedly negative.

Two-thirds have had to cut back on spending to make ends meet, as a growing number say they are falling behind financially.

More than twice as many think the Biden administration has made the economy worse rather than better.

Two-thirds disapprove of how Biden is handling inflation, including a sizable minority of Democrats.

The biggest problem the Democrats face as we approach the midterms is the cost of energy. That, and the fact that a large majority of voters understand that the Biden administration has tried to suppress American production of gas and oil. Thus the desperate attempts in several states to mail checks to voters to help make up for the price of gasoline. Spoiler alert: it won’t work.

"Issue after issue, the bubble people find themselves on the wrong side "

If 'wrong side' means against the majority, I'd agree.

The thing is that majority doesn't really matter so much, and neither does reasonable.

Any small, highly-focused group can hit way above it's weight. This modern fascination with the promotion of mentally-ill cross-dressing men is a canonical case. Between Grand Admiral Levine and the buggerer of trussed-up dogsuit wearers, it's obvious that we've lost the plot

It's worth considering that aside from the occasional cycle of whackiness any civilization goes through, perhaps just before collapse, it sure doesn't hurt that the means of communication are now controlled by a population (tech workers) that draws heavily from the crazy end of the spectrum.

“There's probably a sociology paper hidden in that.”

After thousands of years of human history and development, after all the eons of mankind, in 2022 science has brought us to the point where the unanswered question is, “What is a woman?” From a legal standpoint, this affects Title IX, women’s rights, equal protection clauses and more. We can no longer say there are billions of women on Planet Earth because no one can define what a woman is. Or, they can definite what a woman is, but are too fearful to utter the obvious.

I see a key concept there. 'Worth more'.

ie. income tax based on net worth, not income.

Just imagine the regulatory apparatus you get to set up. Chasing down assets all over the globe to figger out some grand total. Assessing art and real estate, search their homes for sterling tableware, buried gold. Soon to be a national wealth tax, inching downwards through the ranks.

How low can Joe go?

“All of which brings us to the stunning new poll result out from the well-respected—and Democrat-connected—Iowa Poll, whose most recent nationwide survey finds Biden’s overall approval rating at 34 percent. This is very nearly Nixon-on-the-eve of resignation territory, or George W. Bush after eight years of public weariness over the war in Iraq, but if Biden tries really hard, I’m sure he can sink further……”

“A gold-standard pollster heralded by Democrats for her accuracy has just pulled the rug out from under the White House with the worst findings yet for President Joe Biden.

Ann Selzer, who conducts the famous Iowa Poll, working with Iowa’s Grinnell College, has found nationally that Biden’s approval rating has sunk to 34% and that most respondents believe the economy is also heading south.

“The latest edition of the Grinnell College National Poll (Grinnell-Selzer) shows that nearly 6 in 10 Americans believe the economy will get worse in the next 12 months — the highest number recorded in the history of the poll. And the pessimism about the future of the economy may be weighing down President Joe Biden’s approval ratings across the board,” said the poll analysis.

Biden's 20% 'billionaires tax' is archetypical confusion from this administration. It starts with those making more than $100M/year, or was it those with net assets greater than $100M (including unrealized capital gains), or was it both?? In any event, it probably will not pass. But if it does, it will be one more ratchet in distorting the free flow of capital from where it would be most productive. But hey, that's the basic premise of socialist economics.

Geez, what'll the First Son's dad have for polls when the other shoe actually drops in Europe, the economy, COVID III Electric Boogaloo, $10 gas, etc.

BT 8:13 - from the article: "I don’t want to have to hide that my partner and I went paddle boarding this weekend".
Wait til the kids find out what kind of 'paddle' boarding he did with his partner. Ha ha.
Basically the guy just sounds like he's stupid. Why does he have to say 'my partner'? Why not just say 'I went paddle boarding with a friend'?
I'm trying to remember if I or anyone I was in class with ever asked any teacher what they did on the weekend.

MORE EVIDENCE OF 2020 VOTER FRAUD

" I'm trying to remember if I or anyone I was in class with ever asked any teacher what they did on the weekend."

I can answer that as 'never'.

The only way you could tell marital status was the 'Miss' or 'Mrs.' in front of the names of the teachers who menstruate, although quite a few were too old for that. Dunno what you call them.

I just assume that most K-12 teachers are paid-in-full citizens of Crazytown, so there's no telling what they want to tell kids.

‘Portland commissioner ordered to pay over $16K in debt after failing to appear in court’

“On March 21, Judge Matarazzo approved a $4,900 lien against Hardesty and on March 24, the judge issued a second lien with a penalty of $11,700, according to court documents.”

“Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty has been at the height of radical left activism in the city. During the ongoing riots perpetrated by Antifa and Black Lives Matter following the death of George Floyd in 2020, which led to a month long siege of the federal courthouse, Hardesty denied that protesters engaged in violence and blamed Portland police officers for setting fires to "frame" Antifa. She also made false accusations that "undercover white supremacists" started the riots, despite substantial documented evidence stating otherwise.
In May 2021, Hardesty led a mob of far-left activists to try to get a contracted city worker fired for displaying a Thin Blue Line flag decal on his truck”

A decent opinion piece.

"....While we are accustomed to seeing culture war issues as an ideological struggle, the rise of woke capital suggests a better framing of our predicament. We are deeply mired in a class struggle. One could even compare this exercise of distant elite power to colonialism.. To put it in the starkest of terms: globalized professionals and managers are on one side; regional elites and the middle classes are on the other. The stakes are high, impinging on democratic self-government and the power to define reality itself....."

scenes 6:18 - Most of my teachers were women and most were dried up old prunes but a few were quite young and attractive and married. I'm sure they and their respective husbands put the kangaroo to bed on the weekends, but I can't recall them not being able to explain the details to the class on Monday morning caused any hand-wringing by anyone. For the first 8 or 9 years of my schooling the teachers just sat at their desks overnight and all weekend for all I knew or cared. I'd love to know why this new breed of kid-minders feel the need to explain sexual identity to 7 year olds beyond possibly the need for grooming them.

Scotto: "I'd love to know why this new breed of kid-minders feel the need to explain sexual identity.."

No doubt some are simply mentally ill, but perhaps it's just the sign of a religious movement with legs. One man's grooming is another man's spreading the Good Word, perhaps with a cigarette afterwards.

IS BIDEN PANICKING?

“Today the Biden Administration announced that it is considering releasing another 180 million barrels of oil from our Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), after having already released 30 million barrels from the SPR less than a month ago. Details are lacking at the moment. The White House says Biden will deliver remarks at 1:30 p.m. ET on “his administration’s actions to reduce the impact of Putin’s price hike on energy prices and lower gas prices at the pump for American families.”

Some facts and figures: The SPR currently holds 568.3 million barrels, which means Biden’s proposed withdrawal amounts to about a third of the total inventory of the SPR.

Second, 180 million barrels represents nine days of oil use in the U.S. Maybe this is why the release of 30 million barrels a few weeks ago hasn’t had much effect. Reuters reports:”

Creepy grampa joe got played by the green luddites -

Shifting Europe’s energy dependence away from Russia and toward other sources, especially the United States, is a long-term investment in stability. This might have been underway much sooner had the White House understood the positive aspects of promoting American energy influence.

Donald Trump had laid out this same strategy in 2017, specifically as a means of reducing Russia’s leverage in Europe. The approach was codified as part of a larger trade deal with the EU in 2018.

However, the Biden administration reversed course on the effort to marginalize Russian energy influence. In 2021, the White House dropped U.S. sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline that would ship Russian LNG directly to Europe. It was pitched as a means of mending ties with Europe.

Even at the time, it was clear that the deal not only rewarded Russia but also could potentially destabilize Eastern Europe by giving Moscow a gas route that bypassed Ukraine.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believed that Nord Stream 2 was a geopolitical weapon being used by the Kremlin to increase European dependence on Russian energy and to marginalize and weaken Ukraine.

A September report noted, “There are fears that Nord Stream 2 could facilitate a possible Russian invasion, as Moscow will no longer have to worry about Ukraine's gas infrastructure to supply its main European customers.

As late as January, with Russian troops poised to invade, the White House was fighting off attempts to reimpose pipeline sanctions. In fact, Nord Stream 2 handed all the cards to Putin, and the war in Ukraine came as predicted. The American leverage was illusory.

Real strategic leverage comes from using national power and advantage, which is the point of resurrecting the Trump strategy of turning Europe away from dependence on Russia.

U.S. emerged as energy giant
The United States has become an energy giant in recent years by rapidly increasing production of oil and natural gas. In 2019, the United States became a net energy producer for the first time since 1957. That made the country more energy self-sufficient and gave policymakers new strategic tools in shaping global stability.

Higher energy output lowered global prices, denuding the coffers of adversary states like Russia, Iran and Venezuela, while boosting U.S. gross domestic product.
