"When I was Vice President, things were kinda bad during the pandemic," is not a thing former Veep Mike Pence said on Sunday. "And what happened was, Barack said to me, 'Go to Detroit! And help fix it!' Well, poor Mayor [Duggan], he's spent more time with me than he ever thought he's gonna have to."
No, that was Presidentish Joe Biden speaking in Detroit on Sunday about things that never happened because Donald Trump was president in 2020 when the pandemic was launched out of China. Barack Obama hadn't been in the White House for almost four years, and Biden was the former veep running for his party's presidential nomination.
Nobody sent Biden to Detroit to help with the pandemic, not that there's anything he could have done. In fact, Biden was "busy," such as it was, running a basement campaign and releasing staged videos that somehow weren't that much worse than the one I just transcribed for you.
That's from the same speech where Biden complained that Trump called the "insurrectionists" patriots.
Except that Biden said "erectionists."
It's just a childhood stutter, folks, he swears — and so does the Mainstream Media.
There's also the matter of Biden's delivery, equal parts shouting and mush-mouthed, but I've covered that ground so many times these last four years that it's hardly worth mentioning. Except, that is, to take notice that it keeps getting worse.
For some reason not seeing this reported on the major non-Fox networks. Pretty sure though that this is discussed on a regular basis in high school science classes across the country.
An EF5 tornado is one of the most catastrophic weather events on Earth. Monstrous twisters of this magnitude can destroy entire neighborhoods in the blink of an eye, grow to be more than a mile wide and pack winds over 200 mph -- stronger than any Category 5 hurricane on record across the Atlantic basin.
Before the Moore tornado, the blockbuster tornado season in 2011 led to the confirmation of fiveEF5 twisters, including the Joplin, Missouri, EF5 that killed 161 people. A total of 50 tornadoes have been rated F5/EF5 since records began in the United States in 1950.
Gosh I guess those computer models are wrong. Hard to believe when they program them to get the results they want in order to impose climate communism.
Yeah, you never see Drag Queen Story Time in anything other some nice school or library with nearly 100% white kids and parents. Why not venture to Hilltop in Tacoma instead of some kindergarten in Queen Anne and try that shit?
Biden Lawsuit Against Sheetz Gas Will Enrage Pennsylvania Voters
By Salena Zito
Published May 21, 2024
ALTOONA, Pennsylvania — The oldest gas station in America still in operation, Reighard's here in this Blair County city, got its start in 1908 when a local blacksmith decided to sell gasoline out the back of his shop when the Model T was introduced.
It has been open ever since. While architecturally it is underwhelming, the service is good because the people who work there care about the work they do, whether it is pumping gas, washing your windshield or doing minor fixes on your car. It is important to them that you return.
While Reighard's holds the title of the oldest gas station in the country, it was another Altoona family that put a different kind of gas station excellence on the map. The Sheetz family story is one of struggles. This family-friendly service station struggled with a salmonella breakout in 2004, but it retained a deeply local customer base and expanded well beyond its western Pennsylvania roots.
Ask any traveler in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Ohio and North Carolina and they'll tell you when they see the cheery red and yellow stations along their drives, Sheetz means quality and comfort to their loyal customers.
One very loyal and vocal customer is Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.), the Braddock Democrat who often posts on X his preference for Sheetz over Wawa, the other mega service station based in the state, with cheeky posts such as "Sheetz > Wawa."
With so much loyalty among residents in the state, it made sense for President Joe Biden to do a photo-op at a Sheetz in suburban Pittsburgh last week after his visit with local steelworkers. He wanted to demonstrate that he is no different than any other Pennsylvanian in his affection for the family-owned business.
Biden even went so far as to pick up sandwiches for construction workers after pulling the presidential motorcade into the Sheetz gas station in Moon Township. Wearing his aviator glasses, he posed for a selfie with an employee.
Then things got weird.
Just one day after the president's orchestrated Sheetz run, the Biden administration hit the privately held convenience store chain with a federal lawsuit in which federal officials say the company discriminated against minority job applicants. The theory, according to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, is that because the company uses criminal background checks to screen job seekers, somehow that's a violation of Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
The Civil Rights Act prohibits workplace discrimination on the basis of race, sex, religion and national origin. EEOC attorney Debra M. Lawrence wrote that criminal background checks "cause a disparate impact because of race or other protected classifications."
Lawrence went on to say the employment hiring practices must be shown by the employer to be necessary to ensure the safe and efficient performance of the particular jobs at issue.
"Even when such necessity is proven, the practice remains unlawful if there is an alternative practice available that is comparably effective in achieving the employer's goals but causes less discriminatory effect," Lawrence added. The suit said Sheetz discriminated against Black, Native American and multiracial job seekers by weeding out applicants who failed a criminal background check.
Logic says EEOC's underlying assumptions are that nonwhites are criminals. That's absurd and insulting.
Sheetz employs nearly 25,000 employees in a stretch of Appalachia that cuts diagonally through Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Ohio and North Carolina. The company gives back to the community through a charitable foundation and has a tradition on the Fourth of July of honoring customers by rolling back prices on all types of fuel except diesel at all 675-plus locations. That day's fuel cost is always $1.776 per gallon, a tribute to the founding year of 1776.
Going after Sheetz is like tugging on Superman's cape in Pennsylvania, in particular in central and western Pennsylvania when pulling up to a Sheetz is like pulling up to home. This is especially so when the alleged "violation" is what common sense says is just good business practices, such as making sure employees who interact with the public aren't criminals.
Like the Biden administration's pause of exports of American liquefied natural gas, which harms hundreds of thousands of jobs in the state, or his proposed rule for the 45V hydrogen production tax credit that would cut Pennsylvania workers out of the equation in the hydrogen industry, the Sheetz lawsuit has local Democrats shaking their heads.
As one Democrat said privately, "Is [Biden] just trying to lose Pennsylvania?"

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Too bad the dem sycophants and the MSM don't demand a cognitive test.

Phil Leotardo. But it used to be Leonardo before Ellis Island. They even took that away from him and his family!
Dementia patient remembers he was came from a Jewish community. Geezus. Can anyone in the MSM ask for a cognitive test? Some stutter.

U.S. hasn't seen an EF5 tornado in 11 years, longest gap in historyBy Jesse Ferrell, Accuweather.com
An EF5 tornado is one of the most catastrophic weather events on Earth. Monstrous twisters of this magnitude can destroy entire neighborhoods in the blink of an eye, grow to be more than a mile wide and pack winds over 200 mph -- stronger than any Category 5 hurricane on record across the Atlantic basin.
On May 20, 2013, an extremely powerful tornado destroyed a huge part of Moore, Okla. Eleven years later, it remains the most recent tornado to be rated EF5, the strongest possible rating on the Enhanced Fujita Scale. The 11-year gap is the longest since official U.S. records began in 1950.
Before the Moore tornado, the blockbuster tornado season in 2011 led to the confirmation of fiveEF5 twisters, including the Joplin, Missouri, EF5 that killed 161 people. A total of 50 tornadoes have been rated F5/EF5 since records began in the United States in 1950.
Because most weather instruments can't survive tornadoes, the EF scale estimates tornado strength based on NWS staff investigating damage indicators.
So now Cohen walks on fraud.
Gosh I guess those computer models are wrong. Hard to believe when they program them to get the results they want in order to impose climate communism.
But Fern says anthropologic global warming is real and he'he's a super serious scientist. 98% of his rockheads agree with him.
Preach brother. What is a woman? Your mama!
Yeah, you never see Drag Queen Story Time in anything other some nice school or library with nearly 100% white kids and parents. Why not venture to Hilltop in Tacoma instead of some kindergarten in Queen Anne and try that shit?
SloJoe due to arrive in 30 minutes! Check out the crowd!
AOC spills the beans…
If you have 10 minutes it's well worth it…Victor Davis Hanson lays it all out.
Dementia patient promotes systemic white institutional racist Pennsylvania business. Geezus. Surprised this wasn't picked up by the US MSM.
