Not Even the Liberal Media Can Save Joe Biden

Do you know how much you must suck when not even the liberal media can save you? That's Joe Biden right now. There are no mean tweets. There are no off-the-cuff remarks. There's no unpolished language that probably masks our situation, but we're sinking fast—and we're not even a year into this trainwreck of a presidency. 

In less than a year, everything this administration campaigned on has turned to absolute sh**. Scratch that—maybe you could argue it got torpedoed when Afghanistan collapsed. Either way, we have a president who is AWOL, an administration filled with abject idiots, and a nation that is rudderless at its core. No one is in charge. You cannot go through the motions here. You just can't show up and let that be it. You must work, Joe. And I know that's very hard since most of your brain has been eaten by worms.

We were told the adults were back. Are they? Vice President Kamala Harris laughs when stressed, which is only compounded by the fact that she's a total moron. She was tasked with handling the border and boosting COVID vaccination rates. She's failed in both those missions. COVID was supposedly going to be shut down by this administration. It hasn't. Yes, there was always going to be a significant portion of Americans who weren't going to get the shot. That's their choice, but proper messaging could have boosted rates. Instead, this crew went along with Anthony Fauci's contradictory and science fiction-based drivel that has sown confusion and mayhem whenever he opens his mouth. The CDC is compromised, not just because it peddles the same lies about COVID, but because it's totally in the pocket of the teachers" unions—the email exchanges on masks and schools reopening show that. 

"Follow the science" was delivered a headshot. 

In August, Afghanistan, the nation that we helped prop up for 20 years, collapsed in less than 14 days. We can certainly debate the merits of our venture after we routed the Taliban initially, but the fact is Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki were all on vacation and remained so for the next 36 or so hours until they were hauled back after the media forced them. I've said this ad nauseam—this administration felt it was totally fine not addressing the collapse of a major American foreign policy objective until after they were done soaking up some rays. And after he came back from Camp David to give a weak sauce response to the crisis, Biden went back…because obviously nothing needed to be done afterward, right?

Diplomacy is back? Nope. Yes, we make fun of the French, and they probably say some stuff about us—but the fact is, they're a staunch ally. France is a nation with which we seldom get into fights. The same goes for the United Kingdom. Paris recalled its ambassador after the French were incensed over a UK-US-and Australia defense pact that would allow the latter to acquire nuclear submarines. Say what you will about Trump? No ambassador was ever recalled. 

On jobs and the economy, it's a house of cards. It's about to fall. Inflation is out of control, and the way this White House is going about curbing that is to pass…a reconciliation bill, dubbed human infrastructure, that carries a "conservative" price tag of $3.5 trillion. That's on top of the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill that adds $256 billion to the deficit, despite Senate Republicans saying it would be paid for. It's all bad—and spending trillions isn't going to solve the inflation crisis. Job creation? Well, that's slowed, thanks to Democratic governance as well. The stacks of government cheese we call supplemental unemployment benefits have kept millions from getting new jobs. Just ask around. No one can find help. The sick part is that we also need to raise the debt ceiling so that we don't default. We're almost out of money there, and we need a new continuing resolution by September 30 to keep the government running. 

Democrats are going to roll this up into a must-pass situation. Why not? It's the surest way of ensuring they get everything they want. 

On the border, Haitian migrants are hijacking buses and are on the loose. We have Afghan refugees who are allegedly raping US service members. And yes, they haven't been vetted, so that's good news, which comes on the heels of the development that they're all infected with measles. The real kick in the nuts is that we're going to have another 200,000+ apprehensions at the border. This is the crisis, but what does the Biden White House do? They attack Border Patrol because the media mistook horse reins as whips. These guys were doing their job, but the Biden folks decided to declare war on their own people. 

We're not even a year into this presidency. What else could go wrong?

If this is a return to norms, please run again, Donald Trump. I'd rather have mean tweets and a booming economy than this dumpster fire of a White House.
