Donald Trump is on top of the polls, and Joe Biden is nowhere near it. Joe Biden's team is trying to pretend that all is well, all is fine. But the truth is that the polls are worse than they have been for any Democratic presidential candidate since the year 2000. And it's time for Joe Biden to decide if he's going to stay in the race or jump back on the Trump bandwagon. And if he doesn't decide to run, what s the worst thing that could happen to him is for him to admit that he's not going to win the 2020 Democratic nomination? Joe Biden has to decide whether or not he s going to run for re-election or not, and it's not clear that he has the votes to do so. Joe Biden on CNN's "Morning Joe" with Joe Scarborough: "It's Time for Biden to Resuscitate" Joe Biden says he's running for president in 2020, but what does that mean for his chances of winning the Democratic nomination in 2020? And what does it mean for the rest of his campaign? And why should he even be running at this point in the campaign if he s so far behind in polls and isn't even close to being a serious contender in either party contender? And what s going on with his 2020 campaign? And why is he still running for the nomination at all? The answer may surprise you, and the answer might surprise you? - it s not what you thought it means for the Biden campaign and why Joe Biden should run for President in 2020 and why he should stay in 2020 and what he s running for President in 2020. And how he s not running at all along with Hillary Clinton in 2016, and why it s time to make a run for the 2020 election why he s a better choice than Hillary Clinton or not to run in 2020 or not Why he should he run for president next time, you ll have to vote for Hillary Clinton? What s the difference between Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton, and what s at stake in 2016? and Hillary s chance of winning re-nomination in 2016 and in 2016 What does he really mean for Joe s chances of beating Donald Trump in 2020 ? Is it time to run again in 2020 after 2016 and the other guy he s got a chance to win in 2020 in 2016 or not? Why is he running again in the midterms in 2020??
00:00:00.000Well, Joe Biden is in very, very serious electoral trouble.
00:00:03.000A brand new set of polls from Emerson Polling finds that Donald Trump is currently up five points in Pennsylvania, five points in Georgia, one point in Michigan, four points in Arizona, three points in Wisconsin, and six points in Nevada.
00:00:13.000In other words, a Donald Trump blowout.
00:00:16.000Joe Biden's team is trying to pretend that all is well, all is fine.
00:00:20.000Harry Enten from CNN, he says, well, no, actually, the polls are worse than they have been for any Democrat since the year 2000.
00:00:26.000That's how bad these polling numbers are.
00:00:30.000Right now, Donald Trump leads in an aggregate of national polls by about three percentage points.
00:00:35.000If you go back four years ago at this point, Joe Biden was ahead by nine points.
00:00:40.000This right now don't look anything like what we saw four years ago at this point.
00:00:44.000The idea that the polls underestimated Joe Biden last time around simply put Does not hold any water.
00:00:52.000So the idea in the Trump era that the polls have underestimated Democrats, whether it be in a Joe Biden matchup, whether it be a matchup against Hillary Clinton, whether it be in the midterms, at least in the national polling that right now shows Donald Trump in his strongest position, simply put, is not true.
00:01:07.000If anything, the polls have underestimated Republicans during the Trump era, especially in the presidential races in 2016 and in 2020.
00:01:15.000The stonewalling, the excuse-making from the White House, none of it is working.
00:01:19.000None of it is working, but Joe Biden is not going anywhere.
00:01:23.000So yesterday, Joe Biden put out a letter to his fellow Democrats suggesting, quote, I am firmly committed to staying in this race, to running this race to the end, and to beating Donald Trump.
00:01:32.000I've had extensive conversations with the leadership of the party, elected officials, rank and file members, and most importantly, Democratic voters over these past 10 days or so.
00:01:39.000I've heard the concerns that people have, their good faith fears and worries about what is at stake in this election.
00:01:44.000I know better than anyone the responsibility and the burden the nominee of our party carries.
00:01:48.000I carried it in 2020 when the fate of our nation was at stake.
00:01:50.000I also know, says Joe Biden, these concerns come from a place of real respect for my lifetime of public service and my record as president.
00:01:56.000And I've been moved by the expressions of affection for me from so many who have known me well and supported me over the course of my public life.
00:02:02.000I've been grateful for the rock-solid, steadfast support from so many elected Democrats in Congress.
00:02:10.000And taking great strength from the resolve and determination I've seen from so many voters and grassroots supporters, even in the hardest of weeks.
00:02:16.000I can respond to all of this by saying clearly and unequivocally, I wouldn't be running again if I did not absolutely believe I was the best person to beat Donald Trump in 2024.
00:02:25.000That's because he is delusional and his brain no longer functions.
00:02:28.000And he's blocking out all outside interference, all outside voices at this point.
00:02:33.000According to this letter, quote, we had a democratic nomination process
00:02:37.000and the voters have spoken clearly and decisively.
00:02:39.000I've received over 14 million votes, 87% of the votes cast across the entire nominating process.
00:02:43.000I mean, he didn't have an opponent, so there was that.
00:02:46.000This is a process open to anyone who wanted to run.
00:02:48.000Only three people chose to challenge me.
00:02:49.000One fared so badly he left the primaries to run as an independent.
00:02:52.000Another attacked me for being too old and was soundly defeated.
00:02:54.000The voters of the Democratic Party have voted.
00:02:56.000They have chosen me to be the nominee of the party.
00:02:59.000Did we just now say this process didn't matter?
00:03:05.000I feel a deep obligation to the faith and trust the voters of the Democratic Party have placed in me to run this year.
00:03:11.000It was their decision to make, not the press, not the pundits, not the big donors, not any selected group of individuals, no matter how well-intentioned, the voters and voters alone decide the nominee of the Democratic Party.
00:03:20.000Now, all those voters voted before Joe Biden basically had a mental collapse on stage with Donald Trump, of course, but he's not leaving.
00:03:28.000He is telling you, as you said yesterday, that he is not going.
00:03:32.000Well, how exactly is Joe Biden going to recapture the magic with the base?
00:03:36.000Well, there's one outlet he knows he can trust, one place where everybody knows his name.
00:03:41.000And that, of course, is on Morning Joe over at MSNBC, his favorite show.
00:03:45.000So Joe Scarborough, who just a few days ago, after the debate, was saying that maybe it's time for Joe Biden to reconsider his race.
00:03:51.000Well, he's back on the bandwagon, baby.
00:03:53.000And he says the Dems should stop calling for Joe Biden's ouster.
00:03:57.000Here was Joe blasting the media elite.
00:04:00.000He tweeted out, Joe Biden can now say he's having to fight media elites,
00:04:02.000billionaire donors, Washington politicians, Hollywood moguls, and MAGA extremists.
00:04:07.000Biden allies will likely mock these elites for wanting to substitute their judgment for that
00:04:10.000of millions of Democratic primary voters. There's a big problem with that particular argument,
00:04:14.000which is that the Democratic base is significantly less comfortable with Joe Biden, according to the
00:04:19.000polls, than the Democrat elite. Here was Joe Scarborough trying to defend Joe Biden.
00:04:25.000Joe Biden now can say he's having to fight media elites, New York Times editorial page,
00:04:53.000So you're telling me that media elites and billionaire donors and Washington politicians and Washington moguls, they all think that they can substitute their judgment For the judgment of millions of Democratic primary voters?
00:06:11.000All you have to do, head on over to puretalk.com slash Shapiro, upgrade your cell phone service, get America's most dependable 5G network, and save an extra 50% off month numero uno.
00:07:20.000Minka Brzezinski sounded an echoing note here because, again, that echo chamber is real small over there.
00:07:26.000And she defended Joe Biden's interview with George Stephanopoulos, the one we played yesterday, where Joe Biden sounded like he was in a wind tunnel because he was speaking so softly, and they had to ratchet up the audio level so you could even hear him.
00:07:38.000Everyone was watching the Stepanopoulos interview and obviously the debate performance.
00:07:44.000Joe Biden, it's not like this is the first time he flubs his words.
00:07:49.000He's been doing it for about 54 years.
00:08:39.000Well, the first thing he does, he makes a bad joke about Donald Trump golfing.
00:08:44.000I'm curious, is that an allusion also to Donald Trump, and the fact that Democrats, you believe, may now be doing the same thing that Donald Trump tried to do in 2020, and that is overthrow the popular will of Democratic voters?
00:09:02.000Well, look, Democrats... Gentlemen, let me say it this way.
00:09:05.000The reason I've been out on the road so much, all over the country, and while Trump is riding around in a golf cart, filling out his golf cart before he even hits the ball.
00:10:50.000Have you been tested for any age-related illnesses, pre-Parkinson's, or anything like that that might explain sort of having a night like that where you couldn't finish sentences?
00:12:11.000It was a terrible night and I really regret it happened.
00:12:15.000But the fact of the matter is, how can you assure you're gonna be on, you know, faith that can intervene on your way to go to, you know, work tomorrow?
00:12:29.000But it all ended with some shouting, which is what you want from an old man shouting at clouds.
00:12:32.000So at the very end of this interview, he starts talking about how he's frustrated by Democrats, he starts ripping into the elites, because that was his cue from Joe Scarborough, and then he shouts, CHALLENGE ME!
00:13:43.000I love Black Rifle coffee, but I don't always have time to brew coffee the traditional way every morning, which is why I love it.

00:14:44.000So Tommy Veeder, who used to drive the bus for Barack Obama and then turned into an Obama staffer and he's now on Pod Save America over at Crooked Media, he tweeted out Biden's claim that average voters don't have concerns about his ability to win is just not factually accurate, as is the suggestion that he hasn't lost support among black voters.
00:14:58.000And then he cites some polling data demonstrating that's not true.
00:15:01.00075% of voters say Democrats would fare better with an alternative presidential candidate.
00:16:13.000They figured that they were fine lying for Joe Biden because the campaign would also lie for Joe Biden, and then a year into his next term, he would die, and then Kamala Harris would be president.
00:16:33.000They're also fighting mad because it now turns out that a Parkinson's doctor visited the White House like 10 times over the course of the last year.
00:16:42.000So they went to the White House press room, all the members of the press, and they hammered away at the worst White House press secretary in American history, Corinne Jean-Pierre.
00:16:51.000She was asked, why exactly won't Joe Biden just take a cognitive exam?
00:16:55.000And just like Joe Biden, who says he won't take a cognitive exam because he's testing himself, she literally has no answer because she's terrible at her job.
00:17:03.000There have been a number of people who have said, listen, you know, why don't you have a cognitive test just to rule out that there are any issues?
00:17:15.000With the President, you know, would you counsel him to do that just to sort of put an end to these questions?
00:17:47.000Well, the press room turned into a yelling match because she wouldn't answer basic questions as to why a Parkinson's doctor had actually visited the White House.
00:17:54.000She tried to claim that the doctor just comes to the White House routinely to visit with, you know, all the Parkinson's patients at the White House.
00:18:00.000It got very, very rough for Corrine Jean-Pierre right here.
00:18:02.000It turns out that, you know, she has never been up to the job and got exposed in this very moment.
00:19:15.000So, again, when she says she's been totally transparent, that's not true.
00:19:18.000She said there was no medical check-in for Joe Biden after that terrible debate performance, and then it turns out that he actually did check in with the doctor.
00:19:26.000And now she's trying to distinguish between a medical check-in and a verbal check-in with the doctor.
00:20:50.000I think people who are watching and have been watching this briefing for this past week could say that we are doing our best in this briefing to provide the information that we have.
00:20:59.000And I will admit, I will be the first one to admit, sometimes I get it wrong.
00:21:20.000Well, if you're a finance professional looking for a better way to maximize productivity and cut wasteful spending, RAMP could be the answer.
00:21:26.000Ramp is a corporate card and spend management software designed to help you save time and put money back in your pocket.
00:21:30.000With Ramp, you can issue cards to every employee with limits and restrictions.
00:21:34.000You can also stop wasting time at the end of every month by automating your expense reporting.
00:21:37.000Ramp's accounting software automatically collects receipts and categorizes your expenses in real time, so you don't have to do it.
00:21:42.000You'll never have to chase down a receipt again.
00:21:43.000Your employees will no longer spend hours submitting expense reports.
00:21:46.000The time you'll save each month on employee expenses will allow you to close your books eight times faster.
00:22:36.000Given the current trajectory, the answer presumably is no.
00:22:40.000But the White House is now touting Joe Biden doing a presser because this is supposed to be like a big win.
00:22:44.000If the president can withstand one press conference, that means he is fit for office and you should ignore everything you've been seeing for the last several years.
00:23:30.000The whole question about Joe Biden is whether he has the mind of a small child at this point, whether he can actually keep his undies clean throughout the day.
00:23:39.000And they're like, well, he is going to hold a big boy presser with his big boy potty and his trike.
00:23:46.000After that, the president will hold a press conference.
00:23:49.000I guess a big boy press conference is what we're calling it.
00:23:53.000This week, President Biden will speak to national labor leaders of AFL-CIO, host the NATO summit to show the unprecedented strength of our alliance, hold a press conference, a big boy press conference, according to Justin Singh from Bloomberg.
00:24:23.000And he's gonna stand there smiling like an idiot with the Dunn's cap in the corner.
00:24:28.000Things are going amazing at the White House.
00:24:31.000John Kirby, by the way, was asked, you know, you give him security briefings and such, you know, is he sentient during those?
00:24:36.000And Kirby's like, I'm not gonna answer this question, man.
00:24:41.000Have you, in your meetings with him, ever seen him The last thing I'm going to do is sit here and talk about every meeting I've had with the president.
00:24:58.000What I can tell you is what I saw in that debate is not reflective of the man and the leader and the commander-in-chief that I have spent many many hours with over the last two and a half years in terms of the Wow.
00:25:42.000Meanwhile, Democratic donors are pulling their money from Biden.
00:25:45.000They're starting to look down ticket because they're already realizing that Joe Biden, if he's the nominee, is cratering.
00:25:51.000That dude is the Malaysian Airlines flight that is just According to Politico, shaken by mounting doubts over where the President Joe Biden should lead the party's ticket, some Democrat donors have begun pinning their hopes on down-ballot races instead, and insurgent candidates like Long Island's Laura Gillen could benefit from the newfound interest.
00:26:07.000Gillen, a former local official challenging GOP Representative Anthony Disposito, raised about $1.9 million in the past three months, more than tripling her first quarter haul.
00:26:15.000Because donors and fundraisers are uncertain about Biden, and now they're trying to just put their money in other places.
00:26:20.000They are diversifying away from the presidential race.
00:26:24.000A problem for Joe Biden, who has now been overtaken in the money race by Donald Trump.
00:26:28.000Meanwhile, according to Lisa Desjardins, who is a reporter for PBS NewsHour, there are very few Democratic senators pushing for Biden to stay in the race.
00:26:37.000There was supposed to be a meeting with Mark Warner, who's one of the people pushing for Biden to leave, but that has now been set aside as senators try to think about what's the best way to do this.
00:26:46.000According to Desjardins, Dems are seeing internal polling per three sources that shows serious growing issues in Minnesota, New Mexico, Virginia, and Wisconsin for Biden.
00:26:54.000There's frustration and questions about the White House messaging that seems to deny a deeper problem exists.
00:26:59.000One senator told me, everyone here has campaigned and politically, quote, you know a death spiral when you see it.
00:27:09.000In fact, the entire government is in chaos because it turns out that our tax receipts are too low for our spending.
00:27:13.000While the IRS is coming up with new ways to chisel money out of you, they are escalating their collections by adding 20,000 new agents and sending millions of demand letters.
00:27:21.000Handling that alone can be a huge mistake and cost you thousands of bucks in these challenging times.

00:28:19.000Get the help you need with Tax Network USA.
00:28:22.000Meanwhile, more and more Democratic representatives are now coming out of the woodwork to declare that they do not want Joe Biden to be the President of the United States on a going forward basis.
00:28:31.000Adam Smith from Washington has already said this publicly.
00:28:33.000So, for example, did Democratic Representative Michael Quigley of Illinois says he's frail, which obviously is true.
00:28:41.000Look, perceptions are absolutely ruling in things like this in a campaign.
00:28:52.000And again, it is not how I perceive that.
00:28:57.000It's how the American people perceive it.
00:29:00.000And you can see it influencing the numbers.
00:29:02.000Meanwhile, the more purple your district or state, the more you are very worried about Joe Biden.
00:29:08.000Senator Jon Tester, who is running a very tough re-elect race against a Republican candidate named Sheehy in Montana, he is now coming out and being like, I don't know about this Biden guy.
00:29:18.000Quote, President Biden has got to prove to the American people, including me, that he's up to the job for another four years.
00:29:22.000Meanwhile, I'll continue to do what I've always done, stand up to President Biden when he's wrong and protect our Montana way of life.
00:29:27.000So Tester's like, I'm going to run screaming away from Joe Biden.
00:29:31.000He's gonna put on those Wile E. Coyote rocket shoes and be like vroom!
00:29:35.000Like as fast as he possibly can get away from Joe Biden.
00:29:38.000That's how fast he's getting away from Joe Biden.
00:29:39.000By the way, He is likely going to lose his Senate race.
00:29:43.000The Montana race is looking very bad for Jon Tester.
00:29:45.000Meanwhile, Hakeem Jeffries put out a rather cryptic Bible verse today via Twitter, quote, That's Joshua 1.9.
00:30:09.000The first few verses, after the death of Moses, the servant of the Lord, the Lord said to Joshua, son of Nun, Moses' aid, Moses, my servant, is dead.
00:30:17.000Now then, you and all these people get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I'm about to give to them, to the Israelites.
00:30:23.000That leads into that passage that Hakeem Jeffries cited right there, so that's awkward.
00:30:28.000Meanwhile, Michael Moore is off the train.
00:30:29.000He says that this campaign is the cruelest form of elder abuse imaginable.
00:30:35.000The problem here is that I think there's a form of elder abuse going on here, where the Democratic Party and the people that are part of the apparatus are pushing him, pushing him, pushing him to stay.
00:30:50.000And then he comes out and he says, I'm staying.
00:31:21.000Also, Michael Moore, perfect evidence of what I call my Tootles singularity theory, which is whenever Democrats get older, they start to look like Tootles from Hook.
00:31:33.000Meanwhile, some Democrats trying to rally around the Biden flag.
00:31:36.000Richie Torres of New York, who is one of the more moderate lawmakers in the Democratic caucus, and who doesn't actually want to surrender the party to the radical left, he's obviously been very pro-Israel, he put out a statement, quote, regardless of where one stands on a question of President Biden's political future, the intra-party mixed messaging strikes me as deeply self-destructive.
00:31:52.000Those publicly calling on President Biden to withdraw should ask themselves a simple question, What if the president becomes the Democrat nominee?
00:31:57.000The drip, drip, drip of public statements of no confidence only serve to weaken a president who has been weakened, not only by the debate, but also by the debate about the debate.
00:32:05.000Weakening a weakened nominee seems like a losing strategy for a presidential election.
00:32:08.000The piling on is not so much solving a problem as it is creating and compounding one.
00:32:12.000The process by which we decide how to move forward matters as much as the decision itself.
00:32:15.000So that's not even Torres defending Biden.
00:32:17.000That's him saying what is obviously true, which is as Democrats continue to wail on Joe Biden, They're actually undercutting his own base of support.
00:32:26.000Now, is it really gonna undercut his base of support, or is it just that everybody had confirmed what they already knew?
00:33:48.000It was like a perfect, normal kinds of Joe Biden that I've always seen.
00:33:53.000And he has to be really happy after that day because Whether we went, it was, they were all great events.
00:34:00.000Yeah, unfortunately no one believes that.
00:34:02.000At least points for honesty to Whoopi Goldberg.
00:34:03.000So again, Whoopi is like the dumb version of the Democrat, so she says all the quiet parts out loud.
00:34:08.000So here she is just saying the quiet part out loud, which is, I don't care if he's sentient, I don't care if his brain functions, I don't care if he's crapping himself on a daily basis, at least he's not Trump.
00:34:16.000I mean, listen, I'm just gonna add my two cents because I wasn't here on the day that y'all talked about it.
00:34:23.000I don't care if he's Pooped his pants.
00:34:29.000I don't care if he can't put a sentence together.
00:34:33.000Show me he can't do the job, and then I'll say, OK, maybe it's time to go.
00:34:38.000Now, he had a bad night the first time that he went out and debated with Kamala Harris.
00:34:45.000And everybody wanted him to quit then and say, you can't talk to women like this.
00:35:22.000Meanwhile, Democrats are left with the one argument they always have, which is Donald Trump is Orange Hitler.
00:35:26.000We'll get to that argument in just one moment.
00:35:28.000First, we've been working tirelessly on a project.
00:35:31.000It is now finally here for everyone to see.
00:35:33.000That project is Scamlaw, Kamala Harris Unmasked, my explosive three-part series.
00:35:37.000It's now streaming in its entirety at Daily Wire Plus.
00:35:40.000We went deep into Kamala Harris' past, exposing the truth the mainstream media have been obscuring for years.
00:35:45.000From her calculated climb in California politics to her catastrophic vice presidency, nothing is off-limits.
00:35:50.000Every scandal, every gaffe, every radical policy, it is all they bear for you to see, and for your friends to see, in case they were thinking, ah, it doesn't matter, if Biden gets elected, Kamala will take over.
00:35:59.000We're talking backroom deals, failed presidential campaigns, a vice presidency in complete disarray.
00:36:03.000It is even more shocking than you thought.
00:36:05.000This is the political wake-up call America desperately needs right now.
00:36:08.000Take a look at the trailer for Scamala, Kamala Harris unmasked.
00:36:12.000Kamala Harris is a hair's breadth from the Oval Office.
00:36:29.000In this documentary podcast, we're peeling back the layers of Kamala Harris' career, exposing the scandals, the missteps, and the awkwardness that have come to define her journey.
00:36:39.000Kamala Harris is a scam artist, and that scam artist is now a hair's breadth from the Oval Office, where her incompetence and inauthenticity aren't just a problem, they're a dangerous existential issue for the United States.
00:36:50.000Join me in this exclusive three-part series, Scamala!
00:38:51.000I don't remember the giant crematoria under Donald Trump.
00:38:55.000I feel like I would've noticed if that had happened.
00:38:59.000I feel like I have, like, a dog in that fight.
00:39:02.000Donald Trump is... But they're gonna go for it.
00:39:04.000Again, it's all... Everyone is Hitler I don't like!
00:39:08.000Uh, strong stuff here from the Democrats.
00:39:09.000Democratic Representative Gregory Meeks of New York, he says that they are, people who support Trump are supporting Hitler, which is weird, because every damned weekend, there are people who actually support Hitler rallying who are Democrats.
00:39:22.000People who are rallying in favor of Hamas, a Hitlerian hate group that wishes to extirpate every Jew from planet Earth.
00:39:29.000And the Democrats are patting those people on the shoulders.
00:39:31.000Meanwhile, they're looking at Trump and they're like, God, that guy, he's just like Hitler.
00:40:30.000By the way, the people who are walking in line right now are the people who are pretending that Joe Biden is just fine.
00:40:34.000By the way, can we get to Hitler's platform for a second?
00:40:36.000So, Donald Trump has now approved the Republican National Committee platform.
00:40:42.000And I would like to point out at this point, That this platform is the most moderate platform in the history of the Republican Party by far.
00:41:17.000He suggests that we believe that there is a right to life, but that has to be effectuated at the state level.
00:41:23.000So no federal legislation with regard to abortion is what is now in the Republican platform.
00:41:29.000And then he lists some 20 key principles, all in caps, as Donald Trump's want, because we know Donald Trump, just like your great-aunt Mary, loves the caps lock button in using email.
00:41:39.000So anyway, here are the actual things.
00:41:42.000And put aside the fact it's in caps lock and the phraseology with the weird capitalization and all the rest of it.
00:41:46.000The reality is that the things he is proposing here are like 70-30 propositions in American politics because Donald Trump is actually playing this super smart.
00:42:29.000Turn the United States into a manufacturing superpower.
00:42:31.000Now, again, I'm more of a free trader than Donald Trump, but that's a popular proposition in the United States.
00:42:36.000Large tax cuts for workers and no tax on tips.
00:42:39.000Defend our Constitution, our Bill of Rights, and our fundamental freedoms, including freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and the right to keep and bear arms.
00:42:44.000Prevent World War III, restore peace in Europe and in the Middle East, and build a great Iron Dome missile defense shield all over our entire country, all made in America.
00:42:52.000Now again, Iron Dome is actually for rocket defense, not missile defense per se, but a missile defense shield around America would be a good thing, obviously.
00:42:59.000End the weaponization of government against the American people.
00:43:40.000Cancel the electric vehicle mandate and cut costly and burdensome regulations.
00:43:43.000Cut federal funding for any school pushing critical race theory, radical gender ideology, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political contents on our children.
00:44:39.000Meanwhile, Democrats continue to get more and more radical.
00:44:42.000Astonishingly, House Democrats are now launching a united effort against an election bill that requires voters to show that they are citizens before they vote.
00:44:52.000Now I'm gonna need an explainer on this.
00:45:09.000According to the New York Post, House Democrats launched a united effort to vote against a Republican-backed election bill that would require voters to provide proof of citizenship to cast ballots in federal elections.
00:45:17.000Republicans are pushing the passage of the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, otherwise known as the SAVE Act, which would amend the National Voter Registration Act and require states to obtain proof of citizenship from voters for federal elections, as well as purge noncitizens from voter rolls.
00:45:31.000Democratic leadership is urging House members to vote against the bill, saying it would place an extreme burden on countless Americans.
00:45:39.000How in the world does that place an extreme burden on countless Americans?
00:45:48.000Apparently, the law would require state election officials to ask about citizenship before providing voter registration forms, require an individual to provide proof of citizenship in order to register to vote in federal elections, allow state officials to accept a wide variety of documents that make it easy for citizens to register to vote in federal elections, and provide states with access to federal agency databases so they can remove non-citizens.
00:46:10.000Voters would be required to provide proof of citizenship via ID and documentation, like a passport, a government issued photo ID showing proof the individual was born in the United States, military ID or valid photo ID, as well as documentation showing proof of citizenship like a birth certificate.
00:46:24.000You have to do this stuff to get a passport.
00:46:27.000And the idea that this is wildly complicated is beyond, it's beyond, it's crazy.
00:46:34.000What in the, like, what exactly is the alternative Why would you be obstructing this bill unless you actually do want illegal immigrants on, for example, the voting rolls?
00:46:45.000The Biden administration then put out a full statement explaining that they oppose it.
00:47:12.000So, speaking of the Biden administration border policy, can we point out now that they are just... They complained about Donald Trump's border policy.
00:47:21.000One of the things they complained about was kids in cages.
00:47:27.000And it turns out that Barack Obama started the kids in cages and then it turns out a policy mandates the kids in the cages if you wish for them to stay with their families.
00:47:36.000And then it turns out the kids were let out of the cages.
00:47:41.000He just handed them off to random adults.
00:47:43.000According to the Wall Street Journal, in 2021, when the new Biden administration was struggling to cope with a sudden influx of unaccompanied migrant children at the U.S.-Mexico border, the government repeatedly overrode the concerns of lower-level workers who warned about placing them in certain households, documents and interviews show.
00:47:58.000A caseworker wrote about a child slated to live in a hostel-like home in Florida with at least three adults, quote, A few days later, an official dismissed that recommendation to reject the proposed guardian, according to internal government memos.
00:48:12.000At another facility in Pomona, California, more than a hundred children that summer were sent to temporary guardians who were issued denials earlier in the process by case coordinators, according to a review of internal government data.
00:48:23.000About two dozen more denials were overturned because of clerical errors or issues such as missing fingerprints that were resolved, but many of the others were approved with scant details explaining why.
00:48:31.000Some of those home addresses were tied to histories of criminal activity or other behavior that indicated the possibility kids would be put to work.
00:48:39.000So Joe Biden literally turned over children to child labor or abuse in order to avoid a bad headline about kids in cages.
00:48:45.000That's what it appears like from this Wall Street Journal article.
00:48:48.000The findings show the Biden administration officials sometimes overlooked concerns about potential guardians as they faced a political crisis over an unprecedented surge of unaccompanied minors soon after taking office.
00:48:58.000Officials said at the time they wanted to avoid the images that had plagued the Trump administration of children in severely congested facilities, widely derided as kids in cages.
00:49:07.000So instead, they decided that they were just going to shuttle these kids out to adults who had not been vetted.
00:49:15.000Again, the attempt to avoid bad headlines by this administration, resulting in later bad headlines, just another indicator of just how crazy these people are.
00:49:23.000Meanwhile, over in France, complete deadlock has resulted from Emmanuel Macron's decision to basically prop up the communists in order to stop the right wing.
00:49:31.000According to the Wall Street Journal, France's elections have now produced a fractious parliament that threatens an unprecedented period of political paralysis.
00:49:39.000Lawmakers elected Sunday are now grouped into blocks with profound differences.
00:49:42.000The new popular front, those are the commies, is a diverse coalition whose most powerful faction is a polarizing far-left party called France Unbowed.
00:49:50.000Leaders of the pro-business bloc, allied with President Emmanuel Macron, have said they can't form a government with France unveiled.
00:49:55.000Marine Le Pen and other leaders of the far-right National Party, which came in third, have signaled they won't form a party, a government with either Macron's party or the left, who say the feeling is mutual.
00:50:05.000So, again, this is now a complete deadlock in France, largely because of the attempt by everybody in France to turn anyone to the right of Emmanuel Macron far-right.
00:50:16.000This is part of the linguistic game that is happening here.
00:50:19.000And so instead, he just empowered actual communists.
00:50:24.000Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who is the head of the National Front Party over here, he has said one of his first moves will be to recognize the state of Palestine, a terror state, of course.
