It is January and the press is starting to put on the full court pressure for biden. The articles are written to motivate rat voters. To scare them into motivation. The stuff I am reading today are not opinion pieces at all, they are written and described by actual statistics. Their attempt at real journalism is uncloaked by their hatred of Trump. They aren't objective but what source is these days? Real journalism died decades ago. Even if they were professionals, when only 7% of the press is an avowed Republican, there is zero chance of a fair minded press.
This morning I read 3 articles from rat media that dealt with the same issue: biden's hurdles. This is like a dog whistle to rats. All of the articles started with bidens poll numbers and ended with nasty talk about Trump. The classic rat formula in an election year. All of them talked about how great our economy is and how us little people just don't seem to appreciate it the way we should. The resident rats on here will follow the smell right over the cliff. They can't help it. Their leaders are telling them things are great but for some reason biden is struggling. Time to get moving, rat little people.
Next will come the race baiting. It is a staple of all rat media prior to an election.
Lastly will come the personal attacks on GOP candidates. Who can forget the 11th hour mock outrage at a 30 year old DUI by Bush. Or the attempt to paint Bush senior as a philanderer the week before the election. They were after Bush and he was running against clinton. Oh the irony and hypocrisy. They did what they had to do to destroy DeSantis, they have tried their darndest to skewer Haley, but we will see a lot more of it over the next 11 months. They were merciless on Sarah Palin who looks like Einstein next to the current mattress back VP. The press harassed and falsely skewered her with bullshit made up stories, it is a wonder the woman didn't leave the country.
Just watch as it unfolds. They can't allow Trump to win or even get close to winning. That means this is going to be the most wild show of shoddy journalism that you will ever witness.

In a new USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll, Biden's failure to consolidate his victorious 2020 support has left him narrowly trailing Trump.
In a new USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll, Biden's failure to consolidate support in key parts of the coalition that elected him in 2020 has left him narrowly trailing Trump, the likely Republican nominee, 39%-37%; 17% support an unnamed third-party candidate.
There is more potentially good news for Biden: Views of the economy are brightening. Now 29% say the economy is in recovery, a jump of 8 percentage points since the survey in late October. In the wake of positive reports on employment, inflation and the stock market, that's the highest level since August 2021.
To the frustration of the White House, though, the sunnier perception hasn't translated to higher support for the president − at least not yet.
Trump has troubles in court amid preparations for two criminal trials in federal court and two in state courts, in New York and Georgia, on charges including trying to overturn a legitimate election and mishandling some of the nation's most sensitive documents after he left the White House in 2021. He's appealing decisions by a Colorado court and the Maine secretary of state to bump him off primary ballots based on a constitutional bar to officeholders who commit insurrection.

THE WELFARE-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX
The Biden administration brags about the number of jobs being created, but given our rather slack economy it is reasonable to wonder what kind of jobs they are. At the Wall Street Journal, Allysia Finley has a sobering answer:
Drill into the nation’s 3.7% unemployment rate, and you’ll find a growing welfare-industrial complex beneath the seemingly strong labor market. Government, social assistance and healthcare account for 56% of the 2.8 million net new jobs over the past year, and for nearly all gains in blue states such as New York and Illinois.
What is driving the increase in social welfare jobs?
The tens of thousands of migrants pouring into big cities need to be tended to. So do the hundreds of thousands of drug-addled and mentally ill homeless living on the streets. Progressive government doesn’t do anything on the cheap. America’s welfare state has thus become a proverbial Big Dig, and it keeps getting bigger.
This chart shows the shocking gain in employment in social welfare advocacy organizations since 2013. The Left takes care of its own!
As you might expect, gains in the welfare-industrial complex are concentrated in the blue states. In fact, if it weren’t for such jobs, some blue states like New York, Michigan and Illinois would actually be losing employment. This chart tells the story:
