We Were “Deceived & Gaslit For Years”, All In The Name Of “Democracy”; Then “Poof”, It Collapsed Overnight

The Editor at Large for the Wall Street Journal, Gerry Baker, says‘We’ve been “gaslit’ and deceived” – for years – “all in the name of ‘democracy’”. That deceit “collapsed” with the Presidential debate, Thursday’.

“Until the world saw the truth … [against] the ‘misinformation’ … the fiction of Mr. Biden’s competence … suggests they [the Democrats] evidently thought they could get away with promoting it. [Yet] by perpetuating that fiction they were also revealing their contempt for the voters and for democracy itself”.

Baker continues:

Biden succeeded because he made toeing the party line his life’s work. Like all politicians whose egos dwarf their talents, he ascended the greasy pole by slavishly following his party wherever it led … Finally—in the ultimate act of partisan servility, he became Barack Obama’s vice president, the summit of achievement for those incapable, yet loyal: the apex position for the consummate ‘yes man’”.

“But then, just as he was ready to drift into a comfortable and well-deserved obscurity, his party needed a front man … They sought a loyal and reliable figurehead, a flag of convenience, under which they could sail the progressive vessel into the deepest reaches of American life — on a mission to advance statism, climate extremism and self-lacerating wokery. There was no more loyal and convenient vehicle than Joe”.

If so, then who actually has been ‘pulling America’s strings’ these past years?

“You [the Democratic machine] don’t get to deceive, dissemble and gaslight us for years about how this man was both brilliantly competent at the job and a healing force for national unity – and now tell us, when your deception is uncovered, that it’s ‘bedtime for Bonzo’ – thanks for your service, and let’s move on”, Baker warns.

“[Now] it is going horribly wrong. Much of his party has no use for him anymore … in a remarkably cynical act of bait-and-switch, [they are trying to] swap him out for someone more useful to their cause. Part of me thinks they shouldn’t be allowed to get away with it. I find myself in the odd position of wanting to root for poor mumbling Joe … It’s tempting to say to the Democratic machine frantically mobilizing against him: You don’t get to do this. You don’t get to deceive, dissemble and gaslight us for years”.

Something significant has snapped within ‘the system’. It is always tempting to situate such events in ‘immediate time’, but even Baker seems to allude to a longer cycle of gaslighting and deception – one that only now has suddenly burst into open view.

Former Biden Stenographer Claims Biden Blackmailed Obama with Threats of Exposing Former President’s Alleged Private Homosexual Lifestyle

Mike McCormick, a former White House stenographer who worked with Joe Biden, claimed during an interview with Alex Jones that Biden used potential damaging information to manipulate Barack Obama.

McCormick alleges that Biden threatened to expose Obama’s supposed homosexual affairs unless certain conditions were met, wielding this information as a tool for political leverage.

Mike McCormick is a former White House stenographer who worked closely with Joe Biden during his tenure as Vice President. In this role, McCormick was responsible for accurately transcribing speeches, meetings, and other communications involving Biden and other governmental officials.

His firsthand experience provided him with an intimate perspective on the operations and inner workings of the Obama regime.

He wrote a book titled “The Case to Impeach and Imprison Joe Biden,” an eyewitness account of six years as Joe Biden’s White House stenographer.

According to his book:

McCormick, who made national news in April 2023 by revealing he submitted evidence to the FBI that would impeach Joe Biden, confirms that he was interviewed extensively about his knowledge of Biden’s corruption and evil by investigators from the House Oversight Committee and the Senate Homeland Security Governmental Affairs Committee.

McCormick courageously identifies US government officials who assisted Joe Biden in his evil schemes, including then president Barack Obama. And McCormick names the journalists who continue to cover for the Obama–Biden corruption. Despite all the evidence, he has not yet been asked to testify under oath about what he saw. That’s why he’s written this book.

During the interview with Alex Jones, McCormick claimed Biden discovered potentially scandalous information about Obama’s private life early in their partnership and used it to ensure his place as a close and indispensable advisor.

BEYOND EMBARRASSING: John Kirby and KJP Say Joe Biden is Going to Hold a ‘Big Boy’ Press Conference This Week

John Kirby and Karine Jean-Pierre said that Joe Biden is going to hold a ‘big boy’ press conference this week. One of the criticisms of Biden is that he has not held press conferences and spoken directly to the media but big boy? Really?

It’s embarrassing to hear two Biden White House officials using this wording to describe the president of the United States.

Do they think this is going to calm anyone’s concerns about Biden?

MRCTV reports:

Biden To Hold a ‘Big Boy Press Conference,’ Per White House Staff

When we say we want the adults back in charge of the country, this isn’t what we mean.

Joe Biden will hold a “big boy press conference” later this week, according to senior White House officials who touted the 82-year-old addled president’s hefty schedule as some sort of proof he’s capable of doing the job for another four years. And yes, they really used the words “big boy” to describe the event.

Proof that apparently includes holding an actual press conference complete with questions and everything! As opposed to, you know, the toddler ones he’s more used to holding, where he reads from a teleprompter, can’t find the ends of his sentences, and his wife has to shuffle him offstage when it’s done.

“This week, President Biden will speak to national labor leaders of AFLCIO, host the NATO summit to show the unprecedented strength of our alliance, hold a press conference – a ‘big boy press conference,’ according to Justin Sink from Bloomberg,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said during Monday’s press briefing with reporters.

JUST IN: Biden’s Physician Dr. O’Connor Offers Explanation For Parkinson’s Doctor Visits – Former White House Doc Ronny Jackson Calls BS!

Joe Biden’s physician Dr. O’Connor on Monday evening offered an explanation for the Parkinson’s disease expert’s numerous visits to the White House this year.

A Parkinson’s disease specialist visited the White House TEN TIMES going back to November 2022 according to visitor logs.

The Parkinson’s expert visited the White House 8 times in 8 months!

Monday’s press briefing devolved into chaos as Karine Jean-Pierre repeatedly declined to say why a Parkinson’s disease expert visited the White House so many times this year.

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a brain disorder that causes progressive issues with movement, mental health, sleep, and pain. It’s characterized by unintended or uncontrollable movements, such as shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with balance and coordination. Symptoms usually start slowly and worsen over time.

A very frustrated CBS News reporter Ed O’Keefe asked Karine Jean-Pierre why a renowned Parkinson’s expert has repeatedly visited the Biden White House.

KJP argued with Ed O’Keefe and claimed, “we cannot share names!”

Biden’s RADICAL judicial nominee just busted lying under oath—Sen. Kennedy brought damning receipts…

Sometimes, you witness a takedown so epic that it leaves everyone watching in utter amazement. That’s exactly what happened to Joe Biden’s radical left-wing judicial nominee, Karla Campbell. She’s a harebrained left-wing attorney from Nashville and Biden’s Marxist pick for the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, and her judicial dreams might have just imploded. After being caught lying under oath, her hopes of becoming the left’s next activist judge may be over.

The controversy swirls around a radical left-wing extremist hate group known as “Workers’ Dignity,” which is known for advocating the abolition of all military and police forces. It turns out that Ms. Campbell had been a legal advisor for this unhinged group. When Senator Chuck Grassley questioned her, she flat-out lied, denying any involvement. Not the wisest move, because up next was Senator John Kennedy, armed with irrefutable evidence proving her very close and cozy ties to the group. The look on her face was absolutely priceless.

Business Bankruptcies Jump 34 Percent in First Half of 2024

Bankruptcy filings by commercial entities grew by more than a third this year as businesses struggled under an environment of high costs and interest rates, according to the American Bankruptcy Institute (ABI).

A total of 3,016 commercial Chapter 11 bankruptcies were filed in the January–June period this year, up 34 percent from last year, said a July 3 ABI press release. Small-business filings rose by 61 percent. Total bankruptcy filings rose by 15 percent, with individual filings increasing by 15 percent.

“The continued increase in bankruptcy filings reflects the growing economic strain on businesses and households,” said ABI Executive Director Amy Quackenboss.

Michael Hunter, vice president of bankruptcy data provider Epiq AACER, said he expects an increase in individual filings ahead, “especially considering the large increase in commercial filings, consumer debt levels, high interest rates, and overall increased costs with relatively flat household income.”

Businesses have been battered in an environment of high inflation and high interest rates. The 12-month inflation rate has been hovering above 3 percent since June last year, although some analysts calculate that it maybe much higher than that. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve has kept interest rates within a range of 5.25–5.5 percent since July last year. This combination of higher expenses is putting pressure on businesses.

Despite such an environment, many executives remain positive about the future. A recent survey by professional services network Grant Thornton found that 58 percent of chief financial officers (CFOs) are optimistic about the U.S. economy, the highest in almost three years.

Puppetmasters and Persistent Blunders

With so many people of all political stripes now questioning President Joe Biden’s competency, it makes more sense than ever to critically examine the competency of his closest advisers.

These are the people acting as a filter and funnel for information that reaches the president. They can largely deteremine what Biden does and doesn’t find out about. They are responsible for translating and implementing any of Biden’s resulting directives, when he may not be able to clearly communicate his true intentions—whatever they may be.

A week before the October 7 Islamic extremist terrorist attacks on Israel, Biden National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan was publicly bragging that the Mideast was quieter than it had been in two decades, and that he’d had to spend less time managing trouble in the region than any of his recent predecessors.

“Although the Middle East remains beset with perennial challenges, the region is quieter than it has been for decades…we have de-escalated crises in Gaza,” he stated.

It’s difficult to imagine a more out of touch assessment of one’s own work and progress.

Chaos Erupts During White House Press Briefing Over Biden-Parkinson’s Questions

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre got into a heated exchange with multiple reporters, where she declined to answer why a Parkinson’s specialist had been to the White House at least nine times in the past year.

Jean-Pierre admitted that Biden had seen a neurologist three times during his presidency as part of his annual physical, but then began to demur when asked for specifics about the visitor logs.

“Ed, I also said to you for security reasons, we cannot share names. We cannot share names,” she told CBS News senior White House correspondent Ed O’Keefe, who said she should be able to answer questions regarding Biden’s health.

“You cannot share names of others he would’ve met with, but you can share names in regards if someone came here in regards to the president,” O’Keefe shot back.

“We cannot share names of specialists broadly. From a dermatologist to a neurologist. We cannot share names,” she replied. “There are security reasons—Ed, I hear you. I cannot from here confirm any of that because we have to keep their privacy. I think they would appreciate that too.”

Biden Insists Beyond All Reason That He’s the Most Qualified Person To Be President

President Joe Biden defiantly insisted in an interview tonight with ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos that he was the best and most-qualified qualified to run the country and beat Donald Trump.

“I just had a bad night,” Biden repeatedly insisted as Stephanopoulos pressed him on voters’ concerns about his mental and physical state following his disastrous debate performance against his Republican rival, former president Donald Trump.

Biden also refused to give a straight answer when Stephanopoulos asked him if he’d commit to taking an independent medical evaluation and releasing the results to the public.

“Look, I have a cognitive test every single day,” Biden responded. “Everything I do. Not only am I campaigning but I’m running the world.”

The interview was the Biden reelection campaign’s attempt to blunt the damage from the debate debacle, which has led to rising panic inside the Democratic Party about Biden’s viability as a candidate. The New York Times reported this evening, shortly before the interview, that Sen. Mark Warner (D–Va.) is meeting with other Senate Democrats next week to discuss concerns about Biden.

In the immediate aftermath of the debate, Biden’s team offered a litany of excuses for his performance: jet lag, a packed schedule, a cold. Biden, too, cited his travel schedule and a nasty cold.

“[The doctor] just looked at me and said, ‘You’re exhausted,'” Biden told Stephanopoulos.

But Biden’s debate performance was so bad that it shook even the president’s staunchest defenders in the media, who had thus far dutifully ignored Biden’s advancing age. And it pierced “operation bubblewrap,” the name White House insiders reportedly gave to their efforts to carefully manage Biden’s public appearances to avoid senior moments.

Bizarre: Reporters Kicked Out of Biden Coffee Shop Campaign Stop, Forced to Film Biden Through Shop Window

Reporters were kicked out of a Biden campaign stop in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on Sunday where they were forced to film Biden through the storefront window of a coffees shop while Biden spoke–not with voters–but with fellow elected Democrat officials Governor Josh Shapiro and Harrisburg Mayor Wanda Williams. Unlike President Trump when he makes similar appearances, Biden was not mobbed by supporters at Denim Coffee (which may explain why the press was kicked out.)

After reporters witnessed Biden, accompanied by Nurse Jill, and Shapiro ordering at the counter inside and making small talk with the help, a staffer got up in the grill of a C-SPAN reporter filming the event as she ordered the press outside.
