Upside Down

According to the latest poll from the famously liberal National Public Radio, Biden’s approval rating has fallen to 43%, a record low in NPR’s polling, while 51% disapprove. That means Biden’s approval rating is upside down by eight points.

And there’s more bad news for Biden. The latest Morning Consult poll finds that 61% of Americans think our country is “seriously off track.”

And there’s more bad news. The August jobs report missed expectations by 500,000 jobs. Just 235,000 new jobs were created last month. Economists had predicted 720,000 new jobs.

But wait… There’s more bad news for Biden.

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) is now publicly on the record opposing the left’s massive $3.5 trillion spending bill.

Tone Deaf
During the campaign, and with the full cooperation of the left-wing media, Biden was able to manipulate the narrative and always seemed to have the right tone. It infuriated many of us helping Donald Trump and Mike Pence. And with a little cheating, it was enough to put Joe Biden in the White House. But since then, he’s been completely tone deaf.

For example, as hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens cross our southern border and as Democrats block every effort to finish the border wall (the easiest and most logical thing to do), the Biden Administration just announced that it is building border facilities in Tajikistan.

Maybe Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy should send a fact finding mission to Tajikistan to find out how they got Biden to build a border wall.

By the way, the new Mu variant that has many scientists concerned is quickly becoming the dominant variant in Colombia and Ecuador.

Meanwhile, I still can’t figure out if Biden regularly lies because he forgets that we have instant Internet fact checks now or whether, as some increasingly suspect, he’s suffering from significant mental impairment. I’m not trying to be mean, but if the latter is true, it has tremendous national security implications for the country.

Here’s what I’m talking about: During a call Thursday to Jewish leaders, Biden reminded the audience that he had visited the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh after the horrific shooting there in October of 2018. There’s just one problem: He didn’t visit the Tree of Life synagogue.
There is a history here that is not explained by advanced dementia. Biden has a habit of embellishing the facts, to put it politely.

He claimed he once confronted a gang leader.

He said he graduated at the top of his class with three degrees.

He tells a great story about pinning medals on a war hero from Afghanistan.

The guy Joe Biden describes would be a formidable president!

Media Malfeasance
We have written extensively this week about the two phone calls made by Presidents Trump and Biden. Nobody can deny they are newsworthy especially since Trump’s call was the basis of a historic impeachment effort.

But aside from Fox News, not one of the major networks Thursday night — not ABC, not CBS, not CNN, not NBC — devoted one second to Biden’s outrageous call with Afghan President Ghani.

And if you want another example of outrageous media bias, check this out.

Celebrating Life

With everything else that is going on, we should take a moment to celebrate the fact that the Supreme Court allowed Texas’s pro-life heartbeat law to stand for now. As it turns out the vote was 5-to-4. (It’s not guaranteed that the law will ultimately survive current legal challenges, but this is a hopeful sign.)

Three of the five justices who upheld the law were appointed by Donald Trump. I am proud of the major role I played in those confirmation battles. Without those efforts, and the effort we all made in 2016, those vacancies would have been filled by Hillary Clinton. And you can only imagine what a disaster that would have been.

I’m still waiting for an apology from some of my neo-con acquaintances. They hated Trump so much they wanted Hillary to win, no matter the damage to our values.

During Thursday’s White House press conference, Owen Jensen from the Catholic news outlet EWTN challenged Biden’s support for abortion on demand in view of his full-scale attack on the Supreme Court and the Texas law.

Press Secretary Jen Psaki lashed out at Jensen, saying, “I know you’ve never faced those choices, nor have you ever been pregnant.” It’s the left’s tired argument that half of the country should have no say on a life-and-death issue.

But wait a minute. This administration won’t even use the word “mother.” They use the word “birthing people” because they think men can give birth too. This from the administration that claims it always follows the science.

No, men can’t give birth. But when it comes to challenging their abortion on demand position, leftists suddenly drop the woke nonsense and take the opposite position, which is true, that only women can give birth.

Did the optics of this debate cause anyone at the White House to think twice? After a week where Biden has been accused of having the blood of our dead Marines on his hands, now he thinks it’s a really good idea for the nation to continue to have the blood of hundreds of thousands of innocent aborted babies on our hands.
