Best Of

Any . . . ummm . . . grabbing?

Imagine giving a shit what some self-interested billionaire is selling.

Leftards lie and love to be lied to. It's not like just people on the right have family and friends who have/had dementia. Just none of us tell others that this is the best grandpa ever, smartest he has ever been in 50 years then demand the DMV renew his driver's license for the good of the country.

Look at her. Just look at her. She knew. She was in on it. And yet, despite knowing, and despite being in on it, she said all that. Listen to the righteous indignation she spins up! Listen to her moralistic language! It will never cease to amaze me.

And no, before someone says it, this wasn’t because Biden “deteriorated later on.” The Journal places the start of the decline in 2021. It also confirms that Biden was a mess during the preparations for his meeting with Hur — which apparently took three hours per day for a week:

In the fall of 2023, Biden faced a major test when Hur, the special counsel, wanted to interview him. The president wanted to do it, and his top aides felt that his willingness to sit down with investigators set up a favorable contrast with Trump, who stonewalled the probe into why classified documents appeared at Mar-a-Lago, according to people familiar with the sessions.

The prep sessions took about three hours a day for about a week ahead of the interview, according to a person familiar with the preparation. During these sessions, Biden’s energy levels were up and down. He couldn’t recall lines that his team had previously discussed with him, the person said.

Astonishing.

“Now They Tell Us Joe Biden’s Not Up For This Job,” Generalissimo Duane Patterson writes at Hot Air:

As recent as June, there was only one narrative coming out of the Democratic-abetting Manhattan-Beltway media complex – Joe Biden is fine. He’s better than fine. He’s never been better. All this nonsense being peddling on right-wing sites and talk radio is disinformation. The videos we all saw were not real. They were cheap fakes.

The New York Times on June 21st ran a headline that read, “How Misleading Videos Trail Biden As He Battles Age Doubts.” It parroted the White House line that videos showing Joe Biden addled and disconnected on trips abroad were “cheap fakes.”

Back in July, Drew Holden cataloged a plethora of examples of the media actively working with the Biden administration to hide Biden’s failing mental acuity: The Media Helped Cover Up Biden’s Cognitive Decline. Parroted claims of “cheap fakes” were just the latest in a long series of press deceptions about Biden’s mental shortcomings.

Seems the girls crying “Hearsay!” are too stupid to understand the significance of the term and don’t understand what Hutchinson testified to.

Looking at you, Gasbag.

Functional difference between Liz Cheney and the dazzler? Dazzler swallowed Hutchinson's "Trump tried to steal the Presidential Limo". So did Liz (supposedly). No wonder Liz wants a pardon.

The Many Lies of Madison Cornbread

—Ace

Madison Cornbread, aka "Cassidy Hutchinson," is a much more sinister operator that I'd thought she was.

I had thought she was just a silly, stupid social climber seeking to marry up who got scared into making up stories to avoid prosecution herself.

She is allegedly much worse than that:

I haven't spoken much about the below incident publicly due to ongoing investigations -- but given the good work of today's House Admin report on the J6 Committee and its revelations on possible "witness tampering," I'd like to share a relevant episode involving another fabrication from the Committee, Liz Cheney, and my former colleague Cassidy Hutchinson.

Almost three years ago, in early 2022, I got a phone call from Cassidy telling me her closed-door deposition with the J6 Committee (under subpoena) was approaching. Cassidy claimed to be worried that our old Trump WH colleagues, including our boss Mark Meadows, might think she was "disloyal" for following a subpoena and showing up to the deposition.

I cut her off mid-convo and responded: "No one will think you're disloyal just for following a subpoena. And Mark would never, ever ask you to do anything other than the right thing and tell the truth. He wouldn't think you're disloyal." She agreed, and the convo ended perfectly fine.

Months later, Cassidy appeared out of nowhere at her now infamous public J6 hearing, making completely outlandish claims untethered from reality -- many of which were rightly disputed or shot down within minutes. But you may also recall that after Cassidy's appearance, Liz Cheney put up a bizarre anonymous message on a big screen, allegedly received by Cassidy before her (aforementioned) private deposition. Cheney claimed it was evidence of "witness intimidation."

The anonymous message Cheney displayed read, partly: "He (Meadows) told me you have your deposition tomorrow. He knows you're loyal, and you're going to do the right thing when you go in for your deposition."

Via public news reports, I later learned this was in reference to me. It was a completely twisted, utterly nonsense re-telling of the phone convo where Cassidy had fretted to me about "loyalty." She (and the Committee) embellished parts of the exchange, made up others, and spun it into a lie that appeared like witness intimidation.

The J6 Committee presented this account as factual -- when it wasn't -- and then leaked my name to reporters to create the narrative that I was guilty.

In the weeks and months that followed, I faced accusations of criminal exposure over it -- all over nonsense. Members like Dan Goldman publicly accused me of "witness tampering." The FBI called me in for hours of questioning. Meanwhile, the J6 Committee never once followed up with me or my attorneys to ask me about this interaction before uncritically airing the dishonest version. It was all based on fabrications, yet the J6 Committee never even bothered to get the other side. It's one of many reasons why none of their claims about President Trump, or frankly anyone else, should ever be believed.

This is just one story in a long list, and relatively, I ended up one of the lucky ones. But I'm glad to see the report today take the J6 Committee and their 'star witness' to task. They spread an untold amount of falsehoods about my friends, colleagues, and bosses, and forced many good people to defend themselves in ways they should've never had to. I will never forget it.

Cassidy Hutchinson in her book also accused Meadows of setting up a clandestine meeting in Georgetown to leak sensitive info to my wife.

That absolutely never happened. She doesn't tell the truth. It's that simple.

Liz Cheney must be prosecuted, and her Witch's Apprentice Madison Cornbread must be prosecuted for perjury as well.

Criminal Senator Chris Murray is worried that justice is coming, and Mark Hemingway tells him Democrats brought it on themselves:
