westernjournal--2020-10-28--Biden Lets the Truth Slip, Introduces Himself as ‘Kamala’s Running Mate’

When Joe Biden tells the truth , American voters should be cringing .
The former vice president might be the official nominee of the Democratic Party running against President Donald Trump in Tuesday ’ s election , but to most Republicans , he ’ s more like the fake attraction on a bait-and-switch ballot .
And in a comment to Georgia voters on Tuesday , Biden basically blurted that out .
“ My name ’ s Joe Biden .
I ’ m Jill Biden ’ s husband , and I ’ m Kamala ’ s running mate , ” Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ drive-in rally in Atlanta .
“ Y ’ all think I ’ m kidding , don ’ t ya ?
” The “ Kamala ” Biden referred to , of course , is his vice presidential nominee , Sen. Kamala Harris .
And that fake chuckle Biden included doesn ’ t make it a joke .
Anyone who ’ s followed the presidential race with even slight interest knows that the Democratic ticket is rightfully dogged by concerns that the man ostensibly running for president is incapable of doing the job .
Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ almost endless –saying he ’ s running for Senate instead of the presidency , forgetting the name of Republican 2012 nominee ( and current senator ) Mitt Romney , botching the name of the current occupant of the White House .
His ludicrously light campaign schedule — which seems to consist mainly of calling “ lids ” on potential action as early as possible — does not indicate a man brimming with boundless passion to win a job that requires astounding amounts of energy .
All of that and more adds up to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so-called candidacy is a Trojan horse — a deceptive symbol of alleged moderation to sell to the American electorate on behalf of a Democratic Party that has been taken over by its far-left elements .
And Harris , currently the junior senator from California , is coming from the far left .
She ’ s a close ally of democratic socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York on issues such as “ Climate Equity ” and the Green New Deal .
RELATED : Teacher Holds Student After Class , Lectures Him After He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , in short , exactly the kind of candidate sane Americans don ’ t want anywhere near the Oval Office .
In fact , she had so little support even among Democrats ( not the sanest voting bloc going ) that she was forced to drop out of the Democratic primary before a single caucus took place or a single primary vote was cast .
Yet , here ’ s Joe Biden , the nominal Democratic standard-bearer , identifying himself as “ Kamala ’ s running mate ” at a rally one week @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pointed out , Biden has often identified himself as “ Jill Biden ’ s husband ” — it ’ s a cheap play for female voters .
But calling himself the “ running mate ” rather than the person at the top of the ticket is a different story .
Alert Americans might remember Biden ’ s manly statements at the second presidential debate when he declared that “ I am the Democratic Party ” while arguing with Trump over socialized medicine .
When the president compared Biden ’ s health care plans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders , Biden got positively indignant .
“ He thinks he ’ s running against somebody else , ” Biden said .
“ He ’ s running against Joe Biden .
I beat all those other people because I disagreed with them.
” If Biden really disagrees with leftists like Harris , he ’ s got a funny way of showing it .
As it turns out , in Biden ’ s own words , Trump is running against Kamala Harris — and the soul- and society-destroying philosophies she represents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ campaign completely .

When Joe Biden tells the truth, American voters should be cringing.
The former vice president might be the official nominee of the Democratic Party running against President Donald Trump in Tuesday’s election, but to most Republicans, he’s more like the fake attraction on a bait-and-switch ballot.
And in a comment to Georgia voters on Tuesday, Biden basically blurted that out.
“My name’s Joe Biden. I’m Jill Biden’s husband, and I’m Kamala’s running mate,” Biden told the crowd at a sparsely attended drive-in rally in Atlanta. “Y’all think I’m kidding, don’t ya?”
“I am Kamala’s running mate. Y’all think I’m kidding don’t you?” Joe Biden is saying the quiet part out loud. Kamala is the real candidate. pic.twitter.com/FXlW2XMmWN — Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) October 27, 2020

Anyone who’s followed the presidential race with even slight interest knows that the Democratic ticket is rightfully dogged by concerns that the man ostensibly running for president is incapable of doing the job.
Biden’s list of worrisome gaffes is almost endless –saying he’s running for Senate instead of the presidency, forgetting the name of Republican 2012 nominee (and current senator) Mitt Romney, botching the name of the current occupant of the White House.

His ludicrously light campaign schedule — which seems to consist mainly of calling “lids” on potential action as early as possible — does not indicate a man brimming with boundless passion to win a job that requires astounding amounts of energy.
All of that and more adds up to feeding the suspicion that Biden’s so-called candidacy is a Trojan horse — a deceptive symbol of alleged moderation to sell to the American electorate on behalf of a Democratic Party that has been taken over by its far-left elements.
And Harris, currently the junior senator from California, is coming from the far left.
She’s radically anti-gun. She’s radically pro-abortion.
She’s a close ally of democratic socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York on issues such as “Climate Equity” and the Green New Deal.
Harris is, in short, exactly the kind of candidate sane Americans don’t want anywhere near the Oval Office. In fact, she had so little support even among Democrats (not the sanest voting bloc going) that she was forced to drop out of the Democratic primary before a single caucus took place or a single primary vote was cast.
Yet, here’s Joe Biden, the nominal Democratic standard-bearer, identifying himself as “Kamala’s running mate” at a rally one week before Election Day.
As BizPac Review pointed out, Biden has often identified himself as “Jill Biden’s husband” — it’s a cheap play for female voters.
But calling himself the “running mate” rather than the person at the top of the ticket is a different story.
And plenty of social media users noticed:
We don’t think he’s kidding. — Dave (@_Cutty5) October 27, 2020
Does he believe that or is he having another dementia episode — MEGAGAME® (@MegaGame1) October 27, 2020
When they tell you their plan – believe them — MrsBuzzkill (@MissusBuzzkill) October 27, 2020
Alert Americans might remember Biden’s manly statements at the second presidential debate when he declared that “I am the Democratic Party” while arguing with Trump over socialized medicine.
When the president compared Biden’s health care plans for the country to those of Vermont socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, Biden got positively indignant.
“He thinks he’s running against somebody else,” Biden said. “He’s running against Joe Biden. I beat all those other people because I disagreed with them.”
If Biden really disagrees with leftists like Harris, he’s got a funny way of showing it.
As it turns out, in Biden’s own words, Trump is running against Kamala Harris — and the soul- and society-destroying philosophies she represents.
That’s one truth that hurts.
And it should destroy the Biden-Harris campaign completely.

westernjournal--2020-10-28--Seattle Considers Plan To Give the Poor and Mentally Ill a Get-Out-of-Jail-Free Card

What one critic calls “ a green light for crime ” is now under consideration by the Seattle City Council .
A legislative proposal would allow individuals accused of most misdemeanor crimes to use substance addiction , mental illness or poverty as a legal defense to avoid punishment , according to KOMO-TV .
The proposal has been bandied about as part of the city budget process .
Council member Lisa Herbold said it would be a way to reduce the $ 20 million the city spends jailing people every year .
“ This bill as proposed only provides a defense @ @ @ @ @ @ @ KOMO .
“ It ’ ll still be up to a judge or jury to decide whether or not it ’ s a good defense.
” Herbold said the city can not afford to continue its current policy .

“ I ’ m not aware of any legislation like this anywhere in the United States [ or ] even globally , ” he said , according to KOMO .
“ All cities have criminal codes to protect their citizens from criminal acts .
This would essentially create a legal loophole that swallows all those codes and creates a green light for crime , ” Lindsay said .
Herbold ’ s proposal would allow defendants to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of addiction or a mental disorder , with no requirement to show a medical diagnosis , or because of poverty that led the accused to commit a crime to meet an “ immediate and basic need.
” The only misdemeanor crimes exempted from the proposal are domestic violence and driving under the influence .
King County Director of Public Defense Anita Khandelwal said it would not be a major change .
“ It ’ s not a radical change from where we are now , ” she said .
“ It just offers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ little more about what may have been lying at the core of a person ’ s conduct.
” “ If you don ’ t feel very protected right now , this would wipe out almost all remaining protections that we have , ” he said .
“ This would absolutely open the floodgates for crime in Seattle , even worse than what we often currently struggle with , ” Lindsay said .
“ It ’ s basically a blank check for anybody committing theft , assault , harassment [ and ] trespass to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system.

westernjournal--2020-10-28--COVID Patient Classified as Brain Dead in June Is Alive and Well

Inside the walls of Forsyth Medical Center in Winston-Salem , North Carolina , COVID-19 patient Tionna Hairston was declared a brain-dead woman in June .
Four months later , she was released from the Novant Health Rehabilitation Hospital and went home .
When the Winston-Salem Journal called what happened in between “ miraculous , ” I ’ m sure they likely meant it in a secular sense .
Her family definitely wouldn ’ t concur with that assessment , however .
According to an Oct. 20 Journal report , Hairston — who turned 26 in June — had been caring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when she was diagnosed with the virus in May .
Hairston ’ s initial symptoms were initially nothing more than a loss of smell and taste , now recognized as telltale signs of infection .
The symptoms began to accumulate in early June .
She experienced extreme weakness and nausea .
Perhaps most tellingly , she had crippling headaches — probably the sign of a stroke she had suffered , which left her unable to use one of her arms and caused her to have trouble walking .
“ I didn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because I thought she was just weak from the virus , ” Peatross said .
“ But , there came a point when I recognized the sign of a stroke where her eyes were going opposite of each other.
” The stroke caused bleeding on the brain and blood clots .
While being treated in the intensive-care unit in June , she went into cardiac arrest , with her heart stopping and starting for half an hour — something Peatross called a “ horrific experience , the worst 30 minutes of my life.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that normally you can ’ t survive .
They were immediately able to start chest compression , they shocked her to get a pulse and blood pressure going again , and oxygen into her system , but that ’ s on the very long end of a code , ” said Dr. James McLean , director of the Novant inpatient rehabilitation hospital .
After she was revived by doctors , Hairston faced kidney and liver failure , as well as brain damage that had doctors telling her family she likely wouldn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rest of her life .
“ The CT scan showed the one side of her brain not damaged by the stroke was damaged by her coding and the CPR process , ” Peatross said .
“ Her brain stem was damaged .
“ The doctors told us her brain damage was so severe that she had a couple of days at the most .
If she did make it past two days , she would be a vegetable.
” Peatross said “ there were several family meetings to discuss what would be best @ @ @ @ @ @ @ off the ventilator and let her go to Heaven peacefully.
” However , she cited Hairston ’ s faith in God as the one deciding factor in not pulling the plug .
“ I could not give up hope , and her faith kept driving me and pushing me , ” Peatross said .
“ Her father , and family and church family , helped me to make decisions that would have been next to impossible to make on my own.
” “ I would go in and place my hands on her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and pray .
We had Scripture readings in the room , music playing every day .
“ We were surrounded by a chain of prayer going up for her.
” RELATED : 5 Deadliest COVID Districts in US Have Dem Reps - Look Who Represents the Worst One “ They thought that we should take her off of life support because she had no hope for life .
They thought she would be a vegetable .
She wouldn ’ t have any quality of life at all , ” Peatross said , according @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was at one point in June “ pronounced brain dead.
” The coming days and months would test her family — but prove God guided them to the right decision .
The restoration of her kidney and liver function in July meant she could be moved out of intensive care .
Slowly , Peatross said , they began to see signs that Hairston was improving not just physically but mentally .
“ She went from not being able to recognize us , not being able to smile , to being able to make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could , ” Peatross said , describing how the months of July and August went .
“ In our eyes , seeing little things were the signs we used to say she was getting better , and we ’ re on the up and up.
” The biggest improvement , Peatross said , came when Hairston was removed from the ventilator — which , according to Becker ’ s Hospital Review , she was on for two months .
“ We really didn ’ t give her a lot of options , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if you want to go home , you ’ ve got to breathe , you ’ ve got to fight .
And she listened and she responded.
” And on Oct. 20 , after significant improvement , she went home .
Of course there ’ s work to be done — Hairston still struggles with the use of her arms and needs the help of a walker due to muscle atrophy .
She also struggles with memory loss .
However , McLean said that Hairston emerging from this “ with the cognitive recognition @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amazing.
” “ I don ’ t know if there is a limit ” to how much function Hairston can recover , he added .
“ We know from watching people recover from stroke is that they tend to have their most progress within three months to a year .
“ She ’ s more than three months out now and continues to improve .
The fact that she was 25 when all this happened helps with her prognosis in terms of parts of her brain picking up the slack from other parts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you could “ just pick an adjective to describe Tionna ’ s recovery — incredible , miraculous , just amazing — to consider all she ’ s been through and where she is now.
” “ She had every system in her body collapsed , everything shut down , and she ’ s got most everything back.
” In an interview with WGHP , Hairston credited two things for the fact she was able to emerge from the hospital just months after being declared brain dead from COVID-19 : “ my faith in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to walk again.
” Indeed , Peatross said that Hairston ’ s recovery has been a moment of “ pure faith and pure joy ” to the entire family .
As it should be to all of us .
This is the power of prayer and the power of healing .
This is God ’ s hand working through trained medical professionals as well as a family who didn ’ t give up .
The coronavirus has launched many of us into dark nights of the soul .
For some , it ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ For others , it ’ s the loss of someone close to them .
Many have gone through struggles like Hairston ’ s .
Many won ’ t regain as much as much function as she did .
For many , this will serve as a reminder God does miraculous things in the darkest of circumstances .
For many others , it will remind them that God ’ s plan didn ’ t include that miracle .
We should acknowledge all of that when we remember the words of the apostle Paul in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anxious about anything , but in every situation , by prayer and petition , with thanksgiving , present your requests to God .

Mass looting of @Walmart store in Philadelphia.

As the rioting spread, the Pennsylvania National Guard was called out to help bring peace to the city.
The father of the shooting victim also asked for calm.
“All this violence and looting. I don’t want to leave a bad scar on my son and my family with this looting and chaos stuff,” Walter Wallace Sr. said, according to CNN. “So I want my son’s name and everybody to stop this. Give my son a chance. And the family like we’re decent people.”
“Everybody to have respect for our family, to pray for us. Cut it out. The looting is a mindset and it won’t bring my son back. And it won’t, it will escalate things to get worse instead of better,” he said.
Wallace’s family has said he had mental health issues.
In the familiar pattern of a peaceful march slowly giving way to rioting, as Tuesday wore on, the police became the targets.
Rocks, light bulbs and bricks were thrown at officers.
In one instance, a rioter took an ax to the front of a police car.
Police urged residents to stay indoors.

“The Philadelphia Police Department is requesting that all residents in the 12, 16, 18, 19, 24, 25, and 26th Districts remain indoors except when necessary,” a tweet from the Philadelphia Office of Emergency Management said.

The former SinoHawk Holdings CEO said that in Los Angeles on May 2, 2017, he first met Biden at the request of Jim and Hunter Biden at the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.
“They were sort of wining and dining me and presenting the strength of the Biden family to get me engaged and to take on the CEO role to develop SinoHawk in the U.S. and around the world in partnership with CEFC,” Bobulinski said.
Bobulinski’s account of the hotel meeting and his documentation of correspondence with the Biden family corroborate other digital evidence first reported by the New York Post, which it said came from a laptop computer that previously belonged to Hunter Biden.
One email contains a discussion about equity shares from the CEFC deal between the Bidens and Bobulinski.
That email set aside 10 percent to be held by “H” for “the big guy.”
Bobulinski told Carlson that the “big guy” is Joe Biden, while “H” is Hunter Biden.
He said he would have preferred not to come forward with his information and even expressed he was concerned about his safety.
Bobulinski said he came forward on the record with corroborating evidence after he was, without evidence, linked to a campaign of Russian disinformation by Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff of California.
Schiff, the House Intelligence Committee chairman, told CNN two weeks ago, “Well, we know that this whole smear on Joe Biden comes from the Kremlin.”
He added in the interview, “Clearly, the origins of this whole smear are from the Kremlin, and the president is only happy to have Kremlin help in trying to amplify it.”
Rep. Adam Schiff says he’s concerned that he hasn’t “gotten much from the intelligence community” on Russia peddling disinformation. “At times, some of the leadership, like Director Ratcliffe, not been very forthcoming in terms of the intelligence on the Russian threat.” pic.twitter.com/JhcVYlCgcf — The Situation Room (@CNNSitRoom) October 16, 2020
Bobulinski told Carlson the comments from Schiff incensed him, and when they were not retracted, he decided to come forward.
Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe poured water on Schiff’s assertion.
“Hunter Biden’s laptop is not part of some Russian disinformation campaign,” Ratcliffe said Oct. 19.
“Let me be clear: The intelligence community doesn’t believe that because there is no intelligence that supports that,” he said. “And we have shared no intelligence with Adam Schiff, or any member of Congress.”

Bobulinski, a former business associate of Hunter Biden, originally stepped forward earlier in October. The former Navy officer claimed to have evidence linking the Bidens to shady foreign business deals.
“Who’s Tony? Well, he was Hunter Biden’s business partner,” O’Reilly explained. “And he’s the guy that knows all about all the tens of millions of dollars that flowed out of Russia, Ukraine and China into the pockets of the Biden family.
“Now that’s true. It’s not made up, it’s not a Russian plot. It’s true. That happened.”
Even more damning for the establishment media is the fact that Americans are obviously interested in what this witness to the Bidens’ alleged dealings has to say.
An interview between Tucker Carlson and Bobulinski, aired on Fox News, drew in a jaw-dropping 7.6 million viewers, the network said.
To put this achievement into perspective, that’s roughly 2 percent of the total U.S. population tuning in to hear the truth about the Bidens from someone who had dealings with them.
With the election approaching fast, the bias of the mainstream media is being put on display like never before. Despite Americans’ interests in the growing Biden scandal, corporate news companies have largely left their viewers uninformed.

westernjournal--2020-10-30--Mere Days After Confirmation, Leftists Have Already Found an Excuse To Impeach ACB

It was inevitable that leftists would not be content to let Justice Amy Coney Barrett just take her seat on the Supreme Court and do her job .
Some are already calling for her to be impeached if she fails to accede to liberals ’ demands to recuse herself from any 2020 election cases .

It was inevitable that leftists would not be content to let Justice Amy Coney Barrett just take her seat on the Supreme Court and do her job.
Some are already calling for her to be impeached if she fails to accede to liberals’ demands to recuse herself from any 2020 election cases.
Of course, impeachment talk immediately after confirmation is not new for the radical left. They were making the same noise after Brett Kavanaugh’s placement on the high court two years ago.
Some calls for Barrett’s recusal centered on a case before the Supreme Court regarding the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s decision that mail-in ballots received up to three days after Election Day can still be counted.

The Citizens’ Voice reported that a legal firm representing Lucerne County filed a petition with the Supreme Court Tuesday calling for Barrett’s recusal.
Court documents listed the Luzerne County Board of Elections as the party filing the recusal motion.
“This recusal is compelled since Justice Barrett’s ‘impartiality might reasonably be questioned’ … given the circumstances of her nomination and confirmation,” attorneys for the Bureau of Elections wrote, according to The Citizens Voice.
Several members of the county council were upset when they learned of the “political stunt” carried out by the attorneys without the council’s consent. The members voted 7-4 Tuesday evening to instruct the lawyer to withdraw the petition.

For the record, Barrett chose not to recuse herself but did not participate in the court’s decision not to grant an expedited ruling in the matter on Tuesday, the day she officially took her seat, Politico reported.
The Court’s public information office said in a statement that the latest Supreme Court justice did not take part in the decision “because of the need for a prompt resolution of it and because she has not had time to fully review the parties’ filings.”

westernjournal--2020-10-30--Lifelong Dem City Official in Flint, MI Makes Announcement Media Will Hate

Regardless of the final outcome of the 2020 presidential election , the story of President Donald Trump ’ s ability to pick up unlikely supporters could mean great things for the future of the Republican Party .
One such supporter that flipped in favor of the GOP incumbent is Maurice Davis , a Flint , Michigan , City Council member and lifelong Democrat .
He made his announcement Tuesday on Newsmax to host Grant Stinchfield .
“ All my life I ’ ve been a Democrat , ” Davis told the host .
“ I was raised that way , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for granted — Democrat — all black folks supposed to be Democrat.
” But Davis expressed his frustration with a party that claims to advocate for minority communities but never fulfills those promises .
TRENDING : Biden Lets the Truth Slip , Introduces Himself as 'Kamala 's Running Mate' “ They just haul you to the polls and after that , it ’ s over with , ” Davis went on .
“ Well , we need somebody that ’ s going to stand strong and start representing and do the best they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I feel President Trump will be the man for the job.
” Stinchfield rattled off dismal statistics such as “ 42 percent of the population lives in poverty , ” and that Flint has seen a rise in violent crime as the population has dropped by half since the 1960s , all under Democrats ’ watch .
“ They ran it in the ground .
This used to be a beautiful , viable community , ” Davis said .
“ But the Democrats , they believe in entitlements and handouts .
I believe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opportunity we can rise up.
” Davis lamented that after General Motors left Flint , the middle class collapsed into poverty , and insinuated that government assistance money never found its way to places like Flint or Detroit .
“ We have nobody speaking for us , and I ’ m tired of the Democrats speaking with a negative narrative like they lied on President Trump , ” Davis said .
“ Racism and everything else to just fool people to the polls , and that ’ s not right .
That ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ same remarks to a rally with Vice President Mike Pence at Michigan ’ s Flint Bishop Airport Wednesday .
“ Last four years I voted for Hillary Clinton .
This year I decided to go with President Trump .
I ’ m not a bootlicker , I ’ m not an Uncle Tom , ” Davis said to the crowd , anticipating hateful attacks the media will no doubt lob at the black politician for daring to think for himself .
“ I ’ m none of those things .
I ’ m @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , impoverished community.
” RELATED : Democratic Congresswoman Has Dire Warning for Biden Campaign After Talking to Voters “ People are losing everything , ” Davis later continued , “ and when Mr. Trump say ‘ What the hell you got to lose , ’ he was talking to me .
He was not talking to my seat.
” “ Only thing Maurice D. Davis got to lose is a council seat at $ 700 every two weeks , ” Davis said .
“ But this is what I got to gain — @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , it ’ s time to be the United States of America , ” he said .
Trump tweeted the clip of Davis ’ impassioned endorsement with a simple , “ THANK YOU !
” Flint has endured decades of economic depression , with the added nightmare of a municipal water supply contaminated with lead , thanks to inept environmental and government officials .
The problems of Flint are part of a broader pattern with most Democrat-run cities in a perpetual state of poverty and despair , but it looks like their voters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ change .
It ’ s difficult to know what will happen on Election Day , but it is encouraging to see that even the staunchest Democrat in one of the bluest states can support Trump after considering the disaster Democrats have been for the very people they court each election cycle .
Trump is still trailing his Democratic opponent Vice President Joe Biden in most polls , but closing to be within the margin of error .
Regardless , Trump has garnered unprecedented support from an otherwise untouchable base for the GOP : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cube and Lil Pump have backed the president , and even hip-hop star 50 Cent endorsed Trump until actress Chelsea Handler “ reminded him ” he was black .
Although the rest of the music industry and Hollywood predictably endorse Biden because he happens to have a “ D ” next to his name , seeing black artists publicly come out for the supposedly racist president could be an early sign of a seismic shift happening in the black community .
Now with Davis ’ endorsement , it appears old patterns and assumptions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ president , and that could spell trouble for Biden .
