[PEOPLE] Jimmy has ceased buying green bananas or starting any long books. At least he can die secure in the knowledge that, not only was he a better president than James Buchanan and almost as good as Millard Fillmore, but that two out of three Dem presidents since him have been worse and that one out of three has played the saxophone on national teevee and gotten a BJ whilst discussing national policy on the Hot Line™.

Happy Birthday, Jimmy! I know Obama was awfuller, but in my heart you will always be Worst President Ever.
You have been a very good example of Christianity in its truest since.
You have put forth much effort in providing for others with less. All while never seeking personal media attention, other what was needed to continue the Christian-Humanitarian efforts.

The Peter Principle™ in action: he is a smart and caring person that should have never been given executive power. I was starting to think better of him do to his Habitats For Humanity work and that opinion soured as he seemed to support every despotic dictator, every evil cause and, yes, his anti-Semitism that seemed to grow more overt as time passed.

I'll give him this: unlike the Clintons and the Obamas and the Bidens and their retinues, Jimmah never traded on his office.
Unlike those walking whores, Jimmah spent his post-presidency helping people instead of collecting a nine-figure fortune from corporations and billionaires paying him for past and future political services.

Jimmy also had a hand in Venezuela's 2012 election by proclaiming it was fair and free (spoiler - it wasn't)
On the other hand, Jimmy was part of the 2005 bipartisan commission that said that vote by mail was a danger of fraud. He reversed himself on this in advance of the 2020 elections.

Basically a weakling who was out of his depth on the world stage.
His cabinet was schizo: he had a cookie-pushers like Cy Vance and Andrew Young alongside the most hawkish Cold Warrior of the era, Zbig Brzezinski, as NSC Adviser.
Despite his obvious high intelligence - 'nukeyer' er nuclear engineering degree from USNA - when it came to practical policy and strategy, the guy had no coherent, intelligent understanding of the world
[BIZPACREVIEW] Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, Gov. Gavin can't be Bee'd Newsom ...the Mitt Romneyesque mayor of San Francisco as it transformed itself into Poopville, currently governor of California as it transforms itself into Cinderland... has signed a number of sweeping police reform bills that take aim at alleged law enforcement misconduct and will allow officers to be stripped of their badges for "racial bias" and other deemed offenses. They keep voting for these pieces of candied excrement, so they deeserve what they get with them.
On Thursday, surrounded by what Newsom called "moral leadership" and the family members of those killed by law enforcement officers, he signed into law eight police reform bills claiming that they would increase transparency and accountability. He was joined by California Attorney General Rob Bonta who proclaimed that there is a "crisis of trust" between citizens and officers.
"We’re delivering concrete solutions from banning dangerous holds that lead to asphyxia to multiple other mechanisms that improve accountability and oversight and transparency," Bonta declared.
"I’m here as governor of California mindful that we’re in a juxtaposition of being a leader on police reform and a lagger on police reform," Newsom bloviated from a park gymnasium in the Los Angeles suburb of Gardena. "We have a lot to be proud of but there’s areas where we have nothing to brag about."

OK I have to ask....
Given the 18-20 year Federal Firearms Law denying pistols to under 21 years old was recently invalided.Jul 13, 2021 — WASHINGTON – A federal appeals court has ruled that prohibitions on selling handguns to Americans under 21 violates the Second Amendment
So how were <21 yr/old polices officers legally armed before?
But then still an US 18-20 year old only has Limited Rights as an Adult.
Now as far ANY Police Officer being found "Racially Bias" in the course of their police duties & arrests being canned? Doesn't that go w/o saying?
Finally addressing how suspects are physically detained during Violent RESISTING ARREST situations.
When a Police Officers live is in danger, I agree with the Police in using as much force deemed needed to control the violent situation.
The Blue Suits have a Right to Go Home at night more than a 3x convicted loser with a Weapon and bag of Addictive Narcotics.
[KhaamaPress] Former US President Donald Trump ...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons...... has asked a federal judge in Florida on Friday to ask Twitter to restore his account as the Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban... are allowed to tweet their military victories regularly but he was censored during his presidency, Rooters reported.
Donald Trump’s Twitter account which had 88 million followers was removed by the company in January citing a risk of incitement of violence.
Twitter had reasoned that Trump’s Tweets had violated the Platform’s policy and were highly likely to encourage people to replicate what happened in the Capitol riots.
The former US president has said in his request to the district court of Florida that the company (Twitter) was coerced by the members of the US Congress to suspend his account.
The closure of Trump’s account in several social media happened after his supporters stormed the US Capitol on January 6.
Twitter has not commented on Trump’s statements yet.
[Politico] "The fact that the president came to the Hill and whipped against his own bill is the strangest thing I've ever seen."
That late-night observation was just one of many we heard from frustrated lawmakers and senior aides stunned by what happened in the House on Friday.
What senior Dems thought was going to happen: President JOE BIDEN was coming to the Hill to support Speaker NANCY PELOSI's efforts to rally the party behind his historic $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure plan ahead of a Friday vote.
What ended up happening instead: Biden told them he wanted to hold off on BIF until there was a reconciliation deal; even if that means delaying the vote for several more days or even weeks..... the White House responded to this with banana oil
The White House pushed back on suggestions that they muscled support against their own bill. A White House official said Klain told progressives to "hang tight"; not "hold firm"; for more details on logistics.

It's my guess that unless he goes completely off the rails they will run him for president again and he will win again based on the obvious cheating from the last election.

this a.m. Pelosi set a 31 Oct date for a vote on the BIF
this presumes, I think, that the Dems will have settled on the wording of the reconciliation, a.k.a. BuildBackBetterAct, a.k.a. 'Make American Venezuela' Act, a.k.a., GreenLeapForward Act.

I think that this means that the other side of the bureaucracy won the turf wars on Thursday night and issued walking orders to Joe that were the exact opposite of the ones the other side had given to him Wednesday night.

[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert of Texas said the Marine who was jailed after criticizing top military officials over the Afghanistan withdrawal "looks" and "sounds good" after the two met on Thursday.
The congressman traveled to North Carolina's Camp Lejeune, where Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller is being held, for a visit and later provided a status update to his parents on Sean Hannity's Fox News program.
"There are people in that brig that like Stu, and so please know that," Gohmert told Scheller's parents, who say they have not talked to their son since he was thrown in the brig on Monday, on Hannity.
Scheller garnered attention in August when he posted a video on social media calling for accountability from military leaders over the United States's pullout from Afghanistan. He later said he was "relieved from duty" after his comments went viral and that he expected to be jailed over it.
Scheller Jr. is currently in pretrial confinement as he awaits a hearing, which has not yet been scheduled. He has not been charged, but four charges will be considered during his hearing: Article 88 (contempt toward officials), Article 90 (willfully disobeying a superior commissioned officer), Article 92 (failure to obey lawful general orders), and Article 133 (conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman).

[BREITBART] House Speaker Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments... (D-CA) reportedly offered the radical House Democrats a price tag of $2.1 trillion for the reconciliation package, down from $3.5 trillion but more expensive than Sen. Joe Manchin ...Dem senator-for-life from West Virginia. Manchin is one of the approximately one Dem senators who exhibits more integrity than Jello, often even representing his constituents... ’s (D-WV) topline of $1.5 trillion.The offered package to the House Democrats includes items such as child care, paid leave, health care, and climate change, according to Politico Playbook. Don't settle for less, ya commie bastards. Stay strong. And you too, Joe! Stalemate is our best option at this point
The offer presents which measures may survive the trimmed but still large package and which measures may be removed. "For instance, there was no mention of things like free community college or affordable housing or even Bernie Sanders ...The only first openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords. He ran for the 2016 nomination for president, to be cheated out of it by Hillary Clinton, then went back to being an Independent socialist, waiting for 2020 to roll around... ’ prized expansion of Medicare to offer dental, vision and hearing benefits," Playbook reports.
The reported compromise is still far outside Manchin’s $1.5 trillion topline number that he divulged Thursday on a signed piece of paper. The signed document in July is an agreement between Manchin and Sen. Chuck Schumer ...Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras and microphones. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower, which is 45.82540 years, or 320.7778 years in dog years. Senate minority leader as of 2017... (D-NY), which outlined that the reconciliation package would be $1.5 trillion with debate on the package beginning no later than October 1.

This is more like their actual target. The 3.5T was just an inflated starting bid that they knew would never be accepted allowing them to 'compromise' down to this 2.1 (or slightly lower) boondoggle.
Next their 'opponents' (Both D and too many R) will swallow their pride and accept this 'at least its lower then 3.5T' offer. Which is what everyone wanted all along. They might even slip in a few 'Election Reform' provisions in the mix...

[BREITBART] Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, state auditor Keith Faber, and Secretary of State Frank LaRose are considering offering and adopting a redistricting map ahead of the 2022 midterm elections that would be overly beneficial and lopsided toward helping Democrats retain their U.S. House majority, Breitbart News has learned.
Two senior Republican officials briefed on the proposal before its expected introduction next week told Breitbart News that DeWine, Faber, and LaRose are considering drawing a number of pro-Trump Republicans into Democrat-leaning districts as part of retaliation against former President Donald Trump, who the three establishment GOP leaders dislike. The two senior Republicans briefed on the plan told Breitbart News they believe this retaliation from DeWine and others is an effort to steer the GOP away from Trump, who won the the state of Ohio by huge margins in both 2016 and 2020, because they do not like the direction the party is currently going.
The map currently under consideration, these GOP officials said, could jeopardize as many as four or five GOP congressional districts in Ohio—a crushing blow to GOP efforts to retake the U.S. House majority. To retake the majority, Republicans currently need to flip a net five seats or more from Democrat hands into GOP hands in November next year—something that losing several seats in deep-red Ohio could seriously complicate.
A GOP source who has seen the map that DeWine as of now intends to introduce next week told Breitbart News that it would eliminate the district of Trump stalwart Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), pushing it entirely into deep-blue Columbus, Ohio, the state capital, instead.
The map DeWine is planning to introduce would also pit Reps. Mike Turner (R-OH) and Warren Davidson (R-OH) against each other, drawing both of them into a Dayton-based district. This is because Ohio lost a congressional district in reapportionment after the 2020 U.S. Census. But instead of eliminating a Democrat-held district, the DeWine team is, per this Republican familiar with the map, planning to pit two Republicans against each other.
“This would be Speaker Pelosi’s dream map in Ohio and severely impact Republicans’ chances at retaking the House majority,” a senior GOP aide told Breitbart News.
There remains time to stop DeWine’s efforts to help Pelosi and Democrats keep their majority with this unfair and lopsided map, though, as they have yet to publicly introduce it. If conservatives voice their concerns to the governor and raise issue with it and pressure him to change his ways and stop helping Democrats out of spite for Trump, it is possible he could reverse course.
[DAILYWIRE] The powerful head of the American Federation of Teachers, Randi Weingarten, is apparently panicked that the policies of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will trigger parents to pluck their children out of public schools, where Weingarten and her ilk can inculcate their leftist messaging, and place them in private schools instead. She doesn't seem to want to fix the problem by having her members stick to teaching and dump the politix.
On Thursday, Weingarten referencing an article in the leftist The New Republic that attacked DeSantis for his policies, tweeted, “This isn’t just about masks or about Governor DeSantis’ political aspirations. It’s about the complete destabilization of public education so that parents will choose private schools.”
The New Republic had huffed, “Florida’s recent struggles over masks in schools augur a terrifying shift in the right’s approach to education policy,” then quickly gave a salient reason for the Left’s panic:

^Don't worry about teachers promoting CRT. Worry about math teachers not being able to teach math - because they don't know any beyond rote memorization, science teachers who only talk about global warming, and English teachers who are functionally illiterate.
If they can't enroll more than 60-70 percent of the school-aged population, many schools will have to lay off teachers and other staff, which will reduce the range of academic offerings and extracurricular activities they can provide -- which in turn makes the school less attractive to parents who actually care about academic excellence.
Who then choose charters, or private schools or homeschools, and on the downward cycle goes
