Every day that goes by, Ronald Reagan (and Ron Paul) are proven increasingly correct in one important aspect: Americans don’t understand the irrationality of Middle Eastern politics, therefore we shouldn’t be involved in them all.
President Biden is learning this lesson in real-time, as his administration’s strong support for Israel fractures his dangerously low political support back home:
With Trump already leading Biden in important swing states, any further loss of support might spell the end of Biden’s re-election chances. (Or least the credibility of the required election fraud.) Biden’s team knows this, and the response to stop the slide is standard political pandering reminiscent of post 9/11 America:
This is a tone-deaf response to the administration’s insane foreign policy that not only funds both sides of the war, but also wants to fund the humanitarian effort to help people we just paid to bomb.
This “play both sides” stance has the (predictable) consequence of pissing off just about everyone. (Blowback is still real, even if you pay off your victims.) Here’s footage of the huge turnout at yesterday’s pro-Palestinian protest in DC calling for a ceasefire:
This scene — one repeated throughout the country — leaves the Biden administration scrambling to reassure both sides of the conflict that the United States stands with them:
While Biden’s aides scramble to support him through back channels, Biden’s actual staffers publicly march in the streets against his policy (embarrassing to say the least):
And once the sun went down, the protests got more intense (as these things seem to do — ask Portland):
But in contrast to the most dangerous day in the history of our democracy (January 6th), as of publication, only one arrest has been made in connection with the White House protest, which left some…………interesting messages behind.
Who wants to tell them what happens to gay people in Palestine? Maybe a visual description would be more helpful (reading is hard, you know):
As if the situation weren’t complex enough, hanging in the air like a stale fart is this complication:
I’ve said over and over the reason Epstein’s list isn’t public is because the blackmail gained from the op is still useful. By all appearances, “the swamp” will literally engage in sex trafficking of minors to “very important” people to increase its power. If they’ll do that, is there anything they WOULDN’T do?
Is the US government’s support of Israel based on blackmail, like our support for Ukraine seems to be to cover up evidence of what we were up to in the biolabs scattered across the country?
Speaking of Ukraine, the chaos in the Middle East has dried up nearly all support for continuing to fund Ukraine’s inevitable defeat. The situation is so bad that Zelensky invited Donald Trump to the country to “convince” him of the importance of the war:
This comes as government officials are quietly admitting what we’ve been Screaming about since the start of the war: the idea Ukraine could ever defeat Russia if we gave them enough money and weapons was always wishcasting, a favorite tactic of the Biden administration. From the vaccines to inflation to the border to crime to the debt, Biden loves proclaiming everything is going great, but voters just don’t understand how great things are (sometimes left unsaid is “because they’re stupid” — but only sometimes).
(Here’s the data she’s discussing)
“The facts may not align with their feelings” is progressive-speak “voters are dumb for feeling this way”. (In the same way that “kids are resilient” really meant “we know we are hurting children but don’t care”.) Biden has OBVIOUSLY delivered a glorious paradise for all Americans, but these dumb voters get caught up in silly questions like “How am I going to pay my skyrocketing rent?”
Nobody in that CNN studio is worried about making rent, so they lecture everyday Americans how life is going great. At some level it’s understandable, because people who go off-script are punished — like Eric Adams, who’s recently made headlines for being a loud critic of Biden’s border policy. (We should ALL be wondering how many protestors in DC recently walked across our Southern border……..)
Well wouldn’t you know it, the FBI is now investigating if Adams perhaps got some election cash from a foreign government — a grave offense if you’re not part of the administration. This development caused Adams to cancel his trip to DC to discuss the illegal immigration overwhelming New York City’s resources.
Adams is pointing out the emperor’s nude status, therefore he must be punished. An important part of Biden’s wishcrafting is continuing to do it right up until reality forces its way into the conversation. That’s happened with covid lockdowns and is starting to happen with Ukraine.
Eventually we’ll also have to admit the irrationality of Middle Eastern politics and extract ourselves from the situation. When that happens, I fully expect the “experts” to explain how even though we ended up being correct, we still weren’t right.

More bad news for Biden, this is the poll the CNN bobblehead in the article was talking about:
NEW YORK TIMES: “Voters under 30 favor Mr. Biden by only a single percentage point, his lead among Hispanic voters is down to single digits and his advantage in urban areas is half of Mr. Trump’s edge in rural regions. And while women still favored Mr. Biden, men preferred Mr. Trump by twice as large a margin, reversing the gender advantage that had fueled so many Democratic gains in recent years.
Black voters — long a bulwark for Democrats and for Mr. Biden — are now registering 22 percent support in these states for Mr. Trump, a level unseen in presidential politics for a Republican in modern times.”
That Mayor Adams situation was quite interesting. When you really pay attention, you can really see the machinery in action. It all reminds me of The Godfather.
