Democrats Determined to Stick a Big, Fat, CSM Walz Finger in Veterans' Eyes

With President Joe Biden set to speak during Night One of the Democratic National Convention on Monday – to quickly get out the way of Vice President Kamala Harris – some of the folks at CNN were preparing people for some major waterworks. Throughout the day, far-left CNN commentators Van Jones and Bakari Sellers predicted everyone in the arena (including babies) would be left crying for the supposed beauty of Biden stepping aside (when he was really thrown out by an inter-party coup). During the afternoon’s CNN News Central, Jones gushed about what Biden was going to do during his speech. “And tonight, Biden comes out and he's going to do one of the most beautiful acts of political leadership; to step back so somebody else can step forward. That very rarely happens,” he touted. He then predicted they were going to need boxes of Kleenex tissues set up around the arena because so many people would be bawling their eyes out: That's going to, you're going to have Kleenex boxes from up there over there of people watching someone do something honorable. And it's going to make people want to fight that much harder that his sacrifice is not in vain.   Earlier today, Van Jones made a similar prediction: "Biden comes out, and he's going to go one of the most beautiful acts of political leadership...You're going to have Kleenex boxes from up there to over there of people watching someone do something honorable." pic.twitter.com/MgwsRyp7Sv — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) August 19, 2024   In the minutes before the event was to kick off, during The Situation Room, Sellers dismissed the chatter about the Bidens being “bitter” about the party’s coup against him because “this is a prideful night because there's going to be so many ‘thank you, Joe's in this place.” He then clownishly predicted: “There are going to be people crying, there are going to be babies yelling for Joe Biden. He is going to get all of those applause and he deserves every ounce of it.” “Joe Biden has the character, whether or not you're Democrat or Republican that this country needs you want to lead it,” he added. “And it will be a clear contrast between the man who served this country admirably for 50 years, 60 years, and Donald Trump.” It’s hard to believe there will be babies there given how much the Democratic Party worships abortion and have enshrined it in their platform.

In fact, Joe Biden is going to be extremely – this is a prideful night because there's going to be so many ‘thank you, Joe's in this place. There are going to be people crying, there are going to be babies yelling for Joe Biden. He is going to get all of those applause and he deserves every ounce of it.

There are some stories from the past week that the mainstream media wasn’t jumping to cover — and likely would be quite pleased if you never saw them. However, Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” isn’t going to let that happen. The first story pertains to the Pennsylvania Department of State’s not-so-cryptic post on its X account. It wrote that Pennsylvanians “won’t always know the final results of all races on election night.” “Any changes in results that occur as counties continue to count ballots are not evidence that an election is ‘rigged,’” the post continued before pointing X users to a government “fact-check” webpage. “First of all, a government is not supposed to serve as a fact-check. A government is supposed to tell the truth, and journalists are supposed to serve as a fact-check to hold accountable any government officials that are lying,” Wheeler says in disbelief. “Why is the Pennsylvania Department of State warning us three months before the election that we’re actually not going to know the results of the election on the night of the election?” she asks. The second story that’s been buried is that Joe Rogan did not endorse RFK Jr. — despite media reports claiming he did. “In fact, Joe Rogan himself denied that he endorsed RFK Jr. He said he likes the guy, he spoke very highly of the guy, he endorses some of his policies, but he did not endorse him in the sense that Joe Rogan did not say he was going to vote for RFK and that you should vote for RFK,” Wheeler explains. But the stories get worse — or better, depending on how you look at it. In a video starring none other than Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases tells the audience that he’s gotten COVID-19 for the third time despite being vaccinated and boosted a total of six times. “What kind of absolute nutcase gets the COVID vaccine six times? Oh, the kind that gets COVID three times because you’ve shot your immune system,” Wheeler laughs before moving onto the next story — which should surprise no one. “Kamala Harris copied Donald Trump on his new plan for no tax on tips,” Wheeler explains, adding, “she’s trying to take the wind out of Trump’s sails.” However, under the Biden administration, more IRS agents were hired in order to make sure that those working in the service industry paid taxes on tips or else they would go after those waiters and waitresses. “What an absolute liar,” Wheeler says.

Social media platform X has shut down local operations in Brazil after threats from the country's supreme court.Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes reportedly made a secret order that called for the arrest of X officials in Brazil as well as daily fines for noncompliance.The judge "threatened" the platform's legal representative in Brazil with arrest, X's global government affairs page claimed, unless the social app complied with "censorship orders."'A reminder that free speech in America is special.'"He did so in a secret order, which we share here to expose his actions. Despite our numerous appeals to the Supreme Court not being heard, the Brazilian public not being informed about these orders and our Brazilian staff having no responsibility or control over whether content is blocked on our platform, Moraes has chosen to threaten our staff in Brazil rather than respect the law or due process," the X team wrote."As a result, to protect the safety of our staff, we have made the decision to close our operation in Brazil, effective immediately. The X service remains available to the people of Brazil."X owner Elon Musk shared the official statement along with his own words about the importance of the First Amendment in the United States:"A reminder that free speech in America is special and we need to do everything possible to preserve it," Musk wrote in response. — (@) The government affairs page shared the documents in Portuguese, with an X user following up with a translated version using ChatGPT artificial intelligence.The translation, if accurate, pointed to growing dissatisfaction on the part of the Brazilian government.The document pointed to three key points of contention with X; they included: "Blocking of Accounts," "Non-Compliance," and "Penalties."The government of Brazil seemingly required X to "block certain accounts and groups" and provide details about "any monetization" related to said accounts.Brazil also claimed the platform "failed to comply with the court's order within the specified timeframe."The court also argued the company's representatives were difficult to contact, and as such, "obstructed" the process of enforcing the order.Lastly, the court suggested "non-compliance" fines for "bad faith" by X representatives. They imposed a daily fine of R$50,000 which equates to about $9,250 USD. — (@) Musk later jokingly compared to the Brazilian judge to the "Harry Potter" character Voldemort and said "the resemblance is uncanny."The official statement from X closed by saying that the judge's actions are "incompatible with democratic government." "The people of Brazil have a choice to make - democracy, or Alexandre de Moraes," the statement concluded.Like Blaze News?
