by Joseph P. Farrell, Giza Death Star: You may recall that last Thursday, during my News and Views from the Nefarium podcast, I talked about Japan’s Norinchukin Bank’s announcement that it planned to sell off its foreign holdings, a euphemistic code for that bank selling off US securities and replacing them with something else. The move, quite […]

The 2024 election cycle kicked into high gear Thursday night during the year's first general election presidential debate. President Joe Biden and former President Trump agreed to the debate, which left many on the right puzzled, arguing Trump may have more to lose than gain in a CNN-hosted debate where...

It’s nearly universal…. President Trump mopped the floor with Joe Biden tonight. Actually, it wasn’t that President Trump was THAT good…. He was good, yes. Very well done. But it was the fact that Biden was THAT bad….. So we should celebrate, right? Not so fast. Not so fast at all. This is very bad news, and I’ll explain why in just a moment. But first look at everyone celebrating Biden’s demise: This shit is OVER. Let’s go Trump!! — Dean Cain (@RealDeanCain) June 28, 2024 In 1986 Mike Tyson knocked out Marvis Frazier in the first 30 seconds of the first round. Tonight, a former President broke his record in a heavy weight fight. — Patrick Bet-David (@patrickbetdavid) June 28, 2024 Hearing that the Bloomberg Terminal is telling Wall Street: “The first 50 minutes of the debate have been rough for Biden.” -Stock futures are up, pricing in a #Trump win. — Meet Kevin (@realMeetKevin) June 28, 2024 If this #PresidentialDebate was a prize fight the ref would have already stopped it. — Peter Schiff (@PeterSchiff) June 28, 2024 After the first commercial break, I asked my focus group of undecided voters how many of them are more convinced to vote for Joe Biden. Zero raised their hands. Half of them say they voted for Biden in 2020. — Frank Luntz (@FrankLuntz) June 28, 2024 It’s over. President Trump won. — Gunther Eagleman (@GuntherEagleman) June 28, 2024 it doesn’t matter what the answers are anymore. the debate demonstrates what we already knew: biden is not fit to be president. its sad that it had to come to this – to force this elderly man through this. and force us to watch. this is gross. — GregGutfeld (@greggutfeld) June 28, 2024 Trump is killing it. Biden … OMG. — Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) June 28, 2024 jesus stop this — GregGutfeld (@greggutfeld) June 28, 2024 10 minutes into the debate and the drugs are not strong enough pic.twitter.com/j3M1VCoCnQ — Wall Street Silver (@WallStreetSilv) June 28, 2024 And look….none of them are wrong. It’s all true! Trump was great. Biden imploded! But we have to stop for a second and ask ourselves why? Did they just get his dosing wrong? I don’t think so. I think so. The State of the Union was only a few months ago, and to be fair he looked sharp there. They pumped him full of so many drugs he looked fairly decent. They could have done the same thing here, but they chose not to. Why? Because this was the final death knell of Joe Biden. They needed to kill him off, politically speaking. That’s why this debate had to be so early. So historically early. Never been done before. Why? Had to be before the Democratic National Convention before they officially nominate their candidate. Now they can dump Joe and roll in Michelle or Newsom. And that is VERY bad news. In fact, they may go so extreme as to remove Joe even from office now via the 25th Amendment: He is not only not fit for the debate, he needs to be removed as President right now. — Brian Costello (@bpcostello) June 28, 2024 You should not be celebrating this. Trump will steamroll Joe. But Newsom? Much tougher. And that’s why Joe had to be killed off tonight. Here’s what I just posted to Twitter: BREAKING: The Race just changed BIG LEAGUE tonight and no one sees it. Joe Biden got destroyed in the debate tonight, right? Right. We all saw it. YAY! Right? No. This was intentional. They rolled him out there to fail. They need to ditch the dead weight. It’s why we had the earliest Presidential debate in history. Have to kill of Joe, so they can roll in Newsom or Michelle. We told you all along this was coming. This is not to be celebrated. Joe lost because they wanted him to implode. No meds. He sounded worse than an elderly dementia patient. Because they wanted him to. He’s gone. The DNC has not held their convention yet. They will not nominate Joe. They will sub in Newsom or Michelle. They will cite the 25th Amendment and “extenuating circumstances”. Or Joe may literally die before now and then if that’s what has to happen. The signal was sent tonight….Joe is done. BREAKING: The Race just changed BIG LEAGUE tonight and no one sees it. Joe Biden got destroyed in the debate tonight, right? Right. We all saw it. YAY! Right? No. This was intentional. They rolled him out there to fail. They need to ditch the dead weight.… pic.twitter.com/yuVHQG7lMB — DailyNoah.com (@DailyNoahNews) June 28, 2024 Heads up folks….here comes Gavin Newsom: Gavin Newsom Spotted In The Spin Room Of The CNN Atlanta, Georgia Debate To Help Biden Or Michelle: Michelle Obama Is REFUSING To Campiagn For Biden, Here’s Why Michelle Obama Is REFUSING To Campiagn For Biden, Here's Why A new report revealed that former First Lady Michelle Obama had not been campaigning for Biden due to personal frustrations with the Biden family. Fox News reported that Michelle Obama expressed “private frustrations” with the Bidens due to their treatment of her friend Kathleen Bible, who previously divorced Hunter Biden. Buhle and Michelle Obama became friends while her husband was president and Joe Biden was vice president. Hunter Biden and Kathleen Buhle divorced in 2017, and Buhle has since been exiled from the Biden family, which has angered Michelle. Michelle Obama has also distanced herself from Biden after Hunter Biden started dating his late brother Beau’s wife. Michelle reportedly described the relationship as “weird sh*t.” Michelle Obama not campaigning for Biden over exile of Hunter’s ex-wife Kathleen Buhle: report https://t.co/DOYVZ3vY9p pic.twitter.com/Z0BTzfw8of — New York Post (@nypost) June 27, 2024 Check out what Fox News reported: Michelle Obama has expressed private frustration with the Bidens over the treatment of her friend Kathleen Buhle after her divorce from Hunter Biden. It has made her reluctant to openly campaign for the president, according to a new report. The former first lady became friends with Buhle while her husband was in office and Joe Biden was his vice president, and they have since remained close. Hunter Biden and Buhle separated in 2015 and divorced in 2017. Buhle wrote in her memoir "If We Break" about his addictions and infidelity fracturing their marriage, and she was "largely exiled" from the family after their split, according to the Axios report. According to the report, the Biden family was irked by Buhle's book, although it came out a year after Hunter Biden's 2021 memoir "Beautiful Things," which delved into his addiction issues. Axios also reported in 2017 that former President Obama attended a Wilmington, Delaware, fundraiser for the Beau Biden Foundation, a children's advocacy group. At the time, the recently divorced Hunter Biden was dating his late brother's widow, Hallie Biden. According to a source who spoke to Axios, Obama described the dynamics on display as "weird s--t," although he has since denied making such a statement. Michelle Obama privately told others she felt Buhle had been wronged in the aftermath of the marriage's collapse, and she has not been out front on the campaign trail for President Biden as he faces his re-election battle against former President Trump. She does active work with a voter registration group, however. EXCLUSIVE: Michelle Obama has privately expressed frustration over how the Bidens largely exiled her close friend Kathleen Buhle after her messy divorce from Hunter Biden. That's partly why she hasn't campaigned for Biden's re-election. https://t.co/WM0CBn8JR9 — Axios (@axios) June 27, 2024 Per The New York Post: Former first lady Michelle Obama is reluctant to publicly campaign for President Biden’s re-election because, in part, of how the family treated Kathleen Buhle, her close friend, in the wake of her divorce from Hunter Biden, a new report claims. The wife of former President Barack Obama has largely steered clear of the 2024 campaign trail after expressing frustration in private over Buhle’s apparent exile from the Biden family years earlier, Axios reported, citing two sources familiar with the relationship. Michelle’s disdain for partisan politics is also partly to blame for her absence so far this election cycle, the sources added. So....do you think that's the true reason? Or do you think it might have something more to do with this? Is Michelle Obama Angling to Replace Biden For 2024? "Big Mike" waiting in the wings? Is Michelle Obama Angling to Replace Biden For 2024? Is Joe Biden really going to be the Democrat presidential nominee for this year's election? Or, do Democrats have something up their sleeves? Planning to sneak someone else in as Biden's last-minute replacement? According to legendary New York Post columnist Cindy Adams, that's exactly what Dems are planning. And, they have someone specific in mind to replace Biden with... "Plans are to grab Michelle for the Democratic presidency choice. Making the music is Barack the orchestra leader," Adams warned, "The Obamas are now nudging to force SloMo Joe to go. Drop out. It’s like who else is there?" The World is once again moving to Most Dangerous Era of Wars & Genocide! Michelle Obama can "sneak her way" into 2024 Presidential Race. Huge pressure being built on Joe Biden to opt out of re-run.

Who we select. Who speaks for us. Who holds that bully pulpit."

Read this New York Post opinion piece excerpt and decide for yourself: Biden won’t debate. Can’t. Our codger-in-chief can’t even read the prewritten script in front of him fast enough to pronounce the words. So, forget him — which most of us already have. Coming back now — Obama. Not him. HER! We’ve heard this drumbeat for a while. Now it’s louder. Plans are to grab Michelle for the Democratic presidency choice. Making the music is Barack the orchestra leader. Michelle says she’s “terrified” Trump will win. No casual burp. Was programmed. She’s sent a survey to Dem biggies asking their feelings about her candidacy. Obama’s quietly angling for Joe to go. He’s weaseled up to this for a few weeks. Mouths aren’t talking. But mouths are knowing. Over one year ago, summer of 2022, she was in NYC meeting several big hedge CEOs, and said, “I am running, and I am asking for your support.” The Obamas are now nudging to force SloMo Joe to go. Drop out. It’s like who else is there? Columnist Cindy Adams isn't the only one who thinks this. Ted Cruz has also stated that he believes Michelle Obama will replace Joe Biden. Ted Cruz: Democrats Will ‘Parachute’ Michelle Obama in to Replace Joe Biden.https://t.co/Hxxho6uUix — Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) September 22, 2023 Breitbart reported on Cruz's opinion: …According to Cruz, if by the time of the Democratic National Convention in August Biden’s “mental diminishment” worsens, it becomes “obvious to anyone that he can’t find his shoes,” and Democrats begin worrying, the event will serve as an opportunity to “parachute” a replacement in. “The Democrat kingmakers [will then] jettison Joe Biden and parachute in Michelle Obama,” he suggested, adding that “you don’t infuriate African American women, which is a critical part of the constituency that Democrats are relying on to win.” He also suggested that Michelle Obama, having once served as first lady, “has the ability to kind of parachute in above all four [top Democrat contenders] and say, ‘Hey, we’re not picking among any of you; you guys can all fight it out next time.’” “This is the Obamas saving the day,” he stated. Cruz also expressed his belief that Barack Obama is “already running the Biden administration,” serving as a “puppet master” behind the Biden White House. So, what do you think? Is Michelle Obama angling to be Joe Biden's replacement? Let us know your thoughts... Oh, and have you seen this? Thoughts? New Poll Says Michelle Obama "Most Admired Woman". Do You Agree? YES or NO

Less than an hour into a rocky debate performance for President Joe Biden on Thursday evening, a new report suggested the Democrat incumbent was suffering from illness. “NEW: Two sources familiar with the situation say ‘President Biden has a cold,” NBC News senior White House correspondent Kelly O’Donnell said in a post to X at 9:50 p.m. ET. Some commenters quickly scoffed at the idea. “The entire Biden campaign team committed malpractice by not being out there for a week resetting expectations. This is not spinable now,” said ABC News contributor Sarah Isgur, who is a former Trump Department of Justice spokesperson. “I didn’t realize that a cold caused mumbling, stuttering, or staring at nothing for extended periods of time…” quipped Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ). Fox News contributor Joe Concha said, “Oh Kelly, this is why zero people trust your news organization.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP O’Donnell followed up with another post that said, “More: multiple sources say the president was given COVID test and is negative for COVID.” The Associated Press reported that Biden was sounding “raspy” and made “several verbal missteps” during the first half hour of the face-off hosted by CNN. Former President Donald Trump, it added, “countered with falsehoods.” Biden spent a week at Camp David to prepare for the debate.

President Joe Biden seethed with rage during Thursday night’s presidential debate against former President Donald Trump, bringing up a controversial story that has been widely disputed. Biden mentioned a story from years ago, which many former Trump officials have said is not true, which accused Trump of calling U.S. soldiers “suckers and losers.” Biden claimed that “veterans are a hell of a lot better off” under his presidency than Trump’s presidency. “My son spent a year in Iraq, living next one of those burn pits, came back with stage four glioblastoma,” Biden falsely claimed. This lie has been repeatedly debunked by fact-checkers. “I was recently in, in France for D-Day, and I spoke to all about those heroes that died,” Biden continued. “I went to the World War II cemetery, World War I cemetery he refused to go to, he was standing with his four star general. And he told him, I don’t want to go in there because they’re a bunch of losers and suckers.” Biden then became visibly very agitated, saying: “My son was not a loser, he was not a sucker. You’re the sucker. You’re the loser.” Trump fired back: “First of all, that was a made up, quote, ‘suckers and losers.’ They made it up. It was in a third rate magazine that’s failing, like many of these magazines. He made that up. He put it in commercials, we’ve notified him. We had 19 people that said, I didn’t say it.” “There’s nobody that’s taken better care of our soldiers than I have,” Trump continued. “To think that I would, in front of generals and others, say ‘suckers and losers.’ We have 19 people that said, it was never said by me. It was made up by him. Just like Russia, Russia, Russia was made up, just like the 51 intelligence agents are made up. Just like the new thing with the 16 Economists are talking. It’s the same thing. 51 intelligence agents said that the laptop was Russia disinformation. It wasn’t. That came from his son Hunter. It wasn’t Russia disinformation. He made up the suckers and losers so he should apologize to be right now.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP WATCH: President Biden: “My son was not a loser, not a sucker. You’re the sucker.

Democrats and left-wing journalists entered full-blown panic mode following the first presidential debate in the 2024 rematch between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. The debate was defined by Biden delivering raspy, mumbling answers, while hurling personal insults and false claims at the former president. Trump, who is known for usually being hyper and combative, appeared to benefit significantly from CNN’s debate format in which there was no audience for him to feed off of and microphones were turned off, which stopped him from interrupting Biden. Biden was forced to stumble around his own mind in a quiet, empty room as he searched for answers. Trump largely was able to stand there and smile and Biden wilted numerous times under pressure. Former Left-wing CNN blogger Chris Cillizza posted: “Look. This debate was a total and complete disaster for Biden. He looked old. His answers trailed off repeatedly. He was hard to understand. He would stop in mid sentence and move on to something else. I NEVER thought he would be this bad. Stunning. Truly.” Journalist Yashar Ali posted on X: “I am in multiple large group texts with Democratic operatives, elected officials, staffers, and donors. Not one of them feels good about Biden’s performance tonight in terms of style, his voice etc. And these are people who aggressively defend him.” Amy Walter, Publisher & Editor-in-Chief, Cook Political Report, posted: “Remember, the whole reason Biden wanted this debate was to show a contrast with Trump and to make this a referendum on Trump. Instead, only thing we’re talking about is Biden’s poor performance.” CNN host Kasie Hunt highlighted Biden’s appearance: “The voice, open-mouthed look, and visual contrast between President Biden and former President Trump all have Democrats I’m talking to nearly beside themselves watching this debate.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof posted: “I wish Biden would reflect on this debate performance and then announce his decision to withdraw from the race, throwing the choice of Democratic nominee to the convention. Someone like @gretchenwhitmer or @SherrodBrown or @SecRaimondo could still jump in and beat Trump.” Journalist Ben Jacobs said that the most “sanguine” Democrat that he spoke to tonight said: “I understand much like Biden[,] there was no path to replace him with anyone not named Kamala and in this state he’s better than her.” Former Democrat presidential and mayoral candidate Andrew Yang said that it was time to remove Biden from the ticket. “Look I debated Joe 7 times in 2020. He’s a different guy in 2024,” he posted on X. “#swapJoeout”
