Dems Fantasizing About Biden Ordering Trump Murdered

Hunter Biden, the newly convicted felon, is reportedly one of the "strongest voices" urging President Joe Biden not to end his re-election campaign.Biden's abysmal debate performance set off a five-alarm fire in the Democratic Party, splintering it among those who believe Biden should remain the party's presidential nominee and those who believe he should step aside to make way for an alternate candidate.'Hunter Biden wants Americans to see the version of his father that he knows — scrappy and in command of the facts — rather than the stumbling, aging president Americans saw on Thursday night.'Then, there is the Biden family.On Sunday, President Biden gathered with first lady Jill Biden, his children, and his grandchildren at Camp David to discuss his options, the New York Times reported. The family consensus? Biden must remain in the race.Hunter, in fact, is one of the staunchest advocates for the 81-year-old Biden not to step down, according to the Times.The newspaper reported:One of the strongest voices imploring Mr. Biden to resist pressure to drop out was his son Hunter Biden, whom the president has long leaned on for advice, said one of the people informed about the discussions, who, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity to share internal deliberations. Hunter Biden wants Americans to see the version of his father that he knows — scrappy and in command of the facts — rather than the stumbling, aging president Americans saw on Thursday night. Meanwhile, Biden's family is reportedly blaming his staff for the debate performance.Some family members voiced frustrations with Biden's preparation, while others complained that he was "made up to look pale and pallid," according to the Times, despite having a summer tan. Those blunders, CNN reported, incited some family members to demand Biden fire staffers and make campaign changes, though it's unlikely that Biden will comply with those requests."The aides who prepped the President have been with him for years, often decades, seeing him through victories and challenges. He maintains strong confidence in them," said Biden campaign spokesperson Kevin Munoz.Still, Biden's campaign is trying to put out the fire.On Monday, his campaign will engage the Democratic Party's top donors in an attempt to convince them that Biden is the right candidate to take on Donald Trump, and, therefore, they should not withdraw their financial support.Like Blaze News?

The anecdotes of people within the power circles of the Democratic Party reacting to President Joe Biden's poor debate performance keep coming, and much like their reaction to Donald Trump winning in 2016, they paint an ugly picture. CNN reported on Sunday that a debate watch party in Los Angeles that featured Vice President Kamala Harris' husband, Doug Emhoff, devolved into a pit of sadness minutes after it started due to Biden's obvious mental decline: Rob Reiner was screaming about losing and Jane Fonda had tears in her eyes. While there were widespread calls on social media and TV for Biden to step down the night after the debate ended, Democrats and their allies are slowly coming around to say, publicly, Biden should stay. Biden has made it clear he is not getting out of the race. Part of the reason is if Biden were to bow out, that means Harris, who is even less popular than Biden, would be up for election. Any other potential replacement candidate, like California Governor Gavin Newsom, would enrage the base for passing over a black woman for a white man. Finding another candidate this late in the election would be beyond messy and make Democrats look even more dysfunctional than they already are. There is also a question of how Democrats would face the issue of being way past states' deadlines for appearing on the ballot.'Democrats know they are in trouble with sticking with the feeble Biden.'MSNBC host Joy Reid published a video explaining how it does not matter if Biden were to be physically handicapped."I don't care about Biden's age, infirmity. He could be rolled around in a wheelchair. Don't care. ... Donald John Trump cannot be allowed back into the White House," she said. — (@) That said, Democrats know they are in trouble with sticking with the feeble Biden. NBC reported during a Biden campaign call with some of its top donors that a few of them asked for their contributions to be refunded while others were upset they were simply sitting through talking points about how Biden is still the Democrats' candidate. According to Politico, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer called Biden campaign chair Jennifer O’Malley Dillon to say she did not approve of people floating her name to step in and replace Biden, but she also warned after last week's debate performance, Michigan "was no longer winnable for Biden."“The temperature is high,” one Democratic governor told Politico. “A lot of anxiety, a lot of folks at the edge of their seat.”Like Blaze News?

A young girl in North Carolina died after her mother apparently left her in a car for hours on one of the hottest days of the year.Last Wednesday, 36-year-old Ashlee Stallings went to work at an Amazon facility near Charlotte Douglas International Airport on a day when temperatures reached between 94 and 97 degrees. For reasons unknown, Stallings also brought along her 8-year-old daughter and then allegedly left the girl in the car so she could attend to her job responsibilities.Stallings suggested to police that her daughter may have turned off the AC after she became too cold.About three and a half hours later and about an hour and a half after the girl's last text message, Stallings went to the car to check on her daughter. According to reports, she found her daughter lying on the floor of the backseat, foaming at the mouth, and struggling to breathe.Stallings then reportedly grabbed a hammer and smashed out a back window to get the girl. She then hopped in the driver's seat and headed for the hospital but stopped somewhere along the way and dialed 911.First responders raced to the scene and found the girl in "critical condition," a police statement said. They then transported the girl to the hospital, where she was pronounced deceased. Court documents have indicated the girl had gone into cardiac arrest and suffered brain damage as a result of hyperthermia. Her name has not been released.When questioned, Stallings reportedly admitted to police that she had knowingly left the girl in the car and that doing so was wrong. However, she added that she had left the car running with the air conditioning turned on and had been keeping in contact with her daughter via text, court documents said. Stallings suggested to police that her daughter may have turned off the AC after she became too cold.Stallings was arrested and charged with involuntary manslaughter and child abuse or neglect causing serious injury. She remains at the Mecklenburg County Detention Center on a bond of at least $250,000.A statement from Amazon described the incident as "incredibly tragic." "During this difficult time, we’re supporting our employees and have made counseling resources widely available," the statement added.Like Blaze News?

MSNBC talking head Joy Reid, like many of her liberal peers in the mainstream media, did her part in recent years to present President Joe Biden as capable and competent in hopes of propping him up long enough for Democrats to hold onto the White House for another term. This proved to be a colossal waste of smoke and mirrors as Biden went ahead Thursday and evidenced his mental decline for all to see in his debate with former President Donald Trump. Reid did not handle the collapse of the illusion well, retreating during a Thursday panel conversation to the comfort of false claims about Trump. While she managed to make it through the weekend, the U.S. Supreme Court's Monday ruling in Trump v. United States — which determined that a president cannot be charged for performing actions related to the constitutionally established powers of his office — appears to have sent her over the edge. Reid shared a video to TikTok Monday telling her followers, "This is DEFCON 1, friends." In her nearly 10-minute meltdown, Reid denigrated the wives of conservative Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas; suggested only the liberals on the high court care about the Constitution; claimed the SCOTUS ruling enables presidents to arbitrarily murder their opponents and renders treason committed by a president legal; and underscored that she would rather a candidate in a vegetative state take the White House than the presumptive Republican nominee. "There's been a lot of conversation about a certain old person — an old infirm person who had a really bad debate last week," said Reid. According to Reid, all the related chatter about Biden's decrepitude, both in private as well as in the columns of publications like the New York Times, was rendered "completely irrelevant" by the Supreme Court's ruling. Reid, who appears to have glossed over or altogether ignored Chief Justice John Roberts' opinion, suggested that the conservative majority on the court "just declared, days before this nation celebrates its independence presumably from the British king, that the president of the United States and a former president of the United States, that they are a king." "They have granted monarch-like powers to Donald Trump and declared him immune from prosecution for any acts that can be declared official acts, so any acts that he conducts as president," raved Reid. Reid regurgitated the radical interpretation provided by Justice Sonia Sotomayor in her dissenting opinion, suggesting that the majority's decision would enable Trump to use SEAL Team Six "to try to assassinate one of his political opponents so long as he did it through the auspices of the presidency." Clearly unmoored by the debate and the ruling, Reid drifted into a scenario where Trump, having deemed Biden a national security threat, has his family murdered with drones "when they take a foreign trip." After accusing the high court of conferring to presidents the right to arbitrarily murder their opponents while on vacation, Reid smeared Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas' wives of being "insurrectionists." She also turned the "insurrectionist" smear on the two justices, going so far as to explicitly accuse Alito of lying about his wife's role in the New York Times' false flag story. Despite having excitedly covered the Trump impeachment proceedings, Reid later intimated that Congress' failure to convict the object of her antipathy was proof that presidents cannot ultimately be held accountable for heir alleged crimes. Upon convincing herself that America is now a monarchic republic with an untouchable executive branch that can execute opponents willy-nilly, Reid concluded that the "election is no longer about the old guy that's in the White House now." "I no longer care. Doesn't matter to me anymore. It's above me now. It's above me now," continued Reid. "Don't care about Joe Biden's age, infirmity, that he shuffle [sic] when he walk [sic]. I don't care. He could be seated for the rest of, from now to Election Day and never get up off a chair. He could sit down, he could roll around in a wheelchair. ... I don't care. Donald John Trump cannot be allowed back into the White House." Deep into Reid's rant, she had an apparent change of mind and determined that conservative Supreme Court justices are also now American kings. "They are trying to repeal the entire 20th century," claimed Reid, "and they're doing it fast." Reid suggested finally that people who did not agree with her were "delusional." Like Blaze News?

James O’Keefe has done it again. The investigative journalist confirmed suspicions that Disney has “gone woke” in his latest undercover expose with his organization, the O’Keefe Media Group. The group captured a Disney executive on camera admitting that Disney prioritizes skin color rather than merit when it comes to hiring employees. The executive, senior vice president and team lead over at 20th Television Michael Giordano told one of OMG’s investigators that there have certainly “been times where, you know, there’s no way we’re hiring a white male for this.” “Just kind of unspoken?” the undercover journalist says to Giordano. “There are times when it’s spoken,” Giordano confirms, before explaining the way it’s been phrased is, “There’s no way we’re hiring a white male for this role.” Giordano had also told the undercover journalist that a promotion was likely not in the cards for him because he is seen as a white male. “As far as Disney is concerned I’m a white male. That’s not who they’re looking to promote at the moment,” he said. Once the report was released, Giordano was let go from his position. Lauren Chen is not shocked that Disney has been caught. “For a long time, people like me have looked at Disney and wondered, okay, if they care about diversity and woke so much, why don’t they still have diverse characters but at least have a well-written, you know, well-made show?” Chen says. “I think it’s pretty clear here that the reason why they don’t have that at least quality with the wokeness is because they’re also prioritizing skin color when it comes to the people who are making their shows, writing their films, managing their company,” she adds. While there are obviously talented writers of color, population-wise there are not enough to hire only those of color. “They’re having to boost up people who probably aren’t as good at their jobs as they should be, simply because they like the way they look,” Chen comments.Want more from Lauren Chen?To enjoy more of Lauren’s pro-liberty, pro-logic, and pro-market commentary on social and political issues, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
