Somebody Tell Joe He Is Everything He Claims Trump To Be

Fri, 2024-07-05 00:00 +0000

Joe Biden claims he believes in the rule of law, but he has no respect for a Supreme Court that currently leans to the Right thanks to the three justices submitted by Donald Trump. As the Democrats like to say, “Elections have consequences,” and in the case of Donald Trump, his election returned the Supreme Court to a Center-Right position.

Our suggestion to you, Joe, is to accept every decision from the Court with grace. The ones you agree with and those you don’t. The Supreme Court arrives at its decisions based on the text of the Constitution, something you have proven you know little about.

You came to the podium on Monday night to whine about the Court’s decision on Presidential immunity. It would be best if you were thankful to the Court, for without this decision, you would face arrest, indictment, and trial for many of your decisions over the last few years. You talk about the sins of Trump, but most people think you are referring to yourself. Joe, you have to take a minute to look in the mirror. You are either in denial, or your mental acuity is worse than we think. You are in Projection Mode, and unfortunately for you, more people are seeing through your facade. It has been painful for three-plus years as we have watched you gaslight the American people. Trump is not the liar, Joe, but you and your entire staff are the masters of misdirection.

I will admit that I admire the organization that is the Democrat Socialist Party. From top to bottom, and by bottom, I mean the media, is consistent in delivering the message. There is nothing substantive in the message, and no look down the road at how you are going to make things better. No, the message is about fear. It is about controlling people by telling them how unable they are to accomplish anything without the government and how the Dems are waiting to help them with open arms. How is that for an unhealthy remark? The government is here to help you. That is precisely what Ronald Reagan warned us about and why no true Republican should ever get into bed with the Executive branch.

When you spoke on Monday, you immediately blamed the January 6 run on the Capital on Trump and his MAGA supporters. You blamed all the deaths from that day on Trump. You do realize, I hope, that you will clarify your claims on this lie. The only people who died were an unarmed woman killed by a Capital Police Officer and four Capital Police who committed suicide after the fact. As a matter of fact, none of the protestors were carrying weapons, and no weapons were confiscated.

You say that this country will be in grave danger if Donald Trump were to be reelected. But haven’t there been far more Fentanyl deaths during your term than Trump’s? Wasn’t the border closed and secure under Trump, and how dangerous you have made America when you cut off the padlocks at the border and made us a porous state? Isn’t Biden Inflation stretching every American household budget? You have made quite a mess of a good situation, which you inherited from Trump. But you bank on every American having a poor memory, and if you gaslight them enough with your lies, you can convince them you are the man for the job. Well, with a 36% approval rating, I don’t think you are convincing too many people. Actually, with that rating, you are almost guaranteed to lose in November. Then, we will see how quickly you accept the word of the people.

Birthday Present for America: Left-Wing Hate Group Lays Off 25% Of Its Workforce

Thu, 2024-07-04 22:00 +0000

Remember this headline from a while ago?  “BAZINGA! We’ve Made The Big Leagues! GraniteGrok Has Been Flagged By The Southern Poverty Law Center.” In their role as the mouthpiece for the Left (e.g., anything that isn’t Leftist is a HATE GROUP), they labeled The ‘Grok as “Anti-Government.”

I drolly pointed out that they forgot to put “Big” in front of “Government” and brought up the observation that they think that “government distrust” is one of the worst aspects of humanity ever:

Umm, if you read our Founders of our Government, THEY were distrustful of all governments, including the one they were designing. So I’m betting that the SPLC doesn’t like them either (just can’t hoover up money from others over them – I think).

This really is hilarious! Would any of you Normal readers (as opposed to the lunatics on the Left that would give their firstborn to Big Government to keep Big Government big and bigger and some do- it’s called murdering the unborn but I guess that’s why we’re listed by them) agree with them that “distrust” should be banned from our Citizens’ minds?  Or do you think we should have no minds at all and just obey what they tell us to think or say?

Steve also pointed out, in support of that bit of history, that “the Southern Poverty Law Center Has Labeled us as … Americans.” So, with that, you can imagine my chagrin at this news: MELTDOWN: SPLC Terminates a Quarter of Staff, ‘Decimates’ 3 Departments, Union Claims. Dontcha love it when a Lefty organization does the dirty to another one?  Shades of “Women, children, and Unions hit hardest” ring in my ears!

Emphasis mine, reformatted:

The far-left smear factory the Southern Poverty Law Center reportedly terminated a quarter of its staff Wednesday, weakening and perhaps eliminating two of its departments amid a restructure that heavily hit its union members. The SPLC “gutted its staff by a quarter,” the organization’s union posted on X. (Yes, this nonprofit organization has its own labor union. If staff get tired of protesting Alliance Defending Freedom, they can protest management, instead.) The SPLC told more than 60 union members, including five union stewards and the union’s chair, that they would be losing their jobs.

To be perfectly honest and blunt, I have absolutely NO empathy for a bunch of thugs who decided to smear us simply because we want the Government to do its job, and only its job, and to do it with excellence. But it doesn’t do just its Constitutional jobs. It has given itself much more to do outside of its Constitutional mandates and Congressional statutory authorizations. That’s why most of us here are rejoicing over the US Supreme Court decisions over the last two years and ESPECIALLY this past two weeks!

“We announced internally the consolidation of certain programs and activities as well as the elimination of others, resulting in staff reductions,” the center said. The SPLC aims “streamline our activities and operations to strengthen our ability to advance a multiracial, inclusive democracy and ground our work in the perspectives and priorities of communities most affected by human rights violations.”

And one of those programs is one that indoctrinates little kids into as pernicious a scheme as the KKK did. Imagine that the organization that bankrupted the KKK for its hatred has come full circle and created its own haters but just “masks” them using Social Justice verbiage (did you see what I just did there – heh!).

The SPLC is “functionally eliminating the Learning for Justice department,” the union noted. SPLC co-founder Morris Dees established an education program, then called “Teaching Tolerance,” in 1991. The program rebranded as “Learning for Justice” in 2021, apparently because “tolerance” wasn’t woke enough. The program has advocated for teaching kids as young as 2 years old about transgender identity, and it has heartily embraced critical race theory, a lens by which teachers tell kids that whites are oppressors and blacks oppressed in a “systemically racist” America.

So, instead of the KKK hating Blacks, the SPLC hates Whites.  It’s a different shade but the same modus operandi.  And I bet that none of those SPLCers have ever grasped that notion – how can that be “inclusive”? I also dryly note not even ONE word of “excellence” in doing their work but hey, if all you do is to slime Normal people, do it badly, eh?  And just for the record, do we all have to be reminded that American Society IS multiracial already? And that much of what you are doing is NOT being “inclusive” but exclusionary?

But Irony escapes these evil people who are only out for the grift.  And obviously, given their 25% canning, they aren’t even doing that right. So they are, like many on the Left, resorting to making crap up about others to aggrandize themselves and to self-justify their existence.

And just like some of the large corporations that reap large profits but still lay people off and the Left goes nuts, look at this bit of hypocrisy:

The union noted that the SPLC has “nearly a billion dollars in reserves” and received an “F” rating from nonprofit watchdog CharityWatch, in part for hoarding donations. CharityWatch warned that the SPLC may not use donors’ money for 7.3 years, because its reserves can keep the center running for that long.

And I remind you why we have to ask for donations. The SPLC, by sliming us, is one reason why ad revenue is down (Big Tech throttling us as well). Their purpose is to silence us and dry up donors that otherwise would help us but don’t realize that the SPLC that beat the KKK now has the mission to beat up anyone that the Left considers to be a threat to Dem-Progressive-Socialist Totalitarian-wannabees.

If you can, thank you. If you can’t, I can still thank you for spending your most valuable asset—your time —reading GraniteGrok!

More on this here, here, and I note that ABC memory-holed its article.
