The Fall Out is Deafening But the Dust Hasnt Settled Yet

Sub­mit­ted by George McClel­lan

Is there no end to the dis­cus­sions of the fall­out of the Trump vs Biden debate? It has focused our com­plete atten­tion to the moment and while Democ­rats appear to be in dis­ar­ray, their pan­ic sig­nals the end of Biden’s pres­i­den­cy. Trump’s con­ser­v­a­tives are con­firmed in the truth of their MAGA mis­sion while Repub­li­cans appear con­fused as usu­al, dis­joint­ed as always, unco­or­di­nat­ed and bare­ly effec­tive but, the RiNO rats have been leav­ing the ship. They must see the future and real­ize our return to a Con­sti­tu­tion­al Repub­lic is not inevitable, cer­tain­ly dan­ger­ous. The per­cep­tion of dis­as­ter for democ­rats hangs in the air and the hur­ried meet­ings of Demo­c­rat donors and advi­sors are all con­cerned with the final deci­sion: who will Democ­rats put for­ward in Novem­ber, Joe Biden or Kamala Har­ris? Joe likes being Pres­i­dent and he does­nt want to go. At least Jill does­nt.

After Joes sad debate per­for­mance on the nation­al stage, the chat­ter­ing class engaged in wail­ing and gnash­ing of teeth, rend­ing of gar­ments and scream­ing into the air, includ­ing most of the lega­cy media. Not accept­ing the dam­age Joe did to their agen­da, they ini­tial­ly decid­ed to cir­cle the wag­ons to save Joe and his fail­ing pres­i­den­cy. Then the nation­al polls came out and it became clear that Joe has to go. The sad thing is they dont real­ly know why he should be saved except the loom­ing pres­ence of Don­ald Trump rac­ing at them like a freight train through a tun­nel. And while the fin­ger point­ing con­tin­ues what is obvi­ous to even the most casu­al observ­er, is that the world of US pol­i­tics is spin­ning out of con­trol. The first blow to Joe came when for­mer Speak­er Nan­cy Pelosi, still wield­ing some influ­ence in the par­ty, threw in her two cents worth both sug­gest­ing Bidens debate per­for­mance might have been an inci­dent or was it a con­di­tion? At the same time she accused Don­ald Trump of demen­tia before hav­ing her own senior moment episode. Pelo­sis TDS can be for­giv­en as she appar­ent­ly was on the sauce so to speak, while Don­ald Trump does­nt imbibe even secret­ly in a dark clos­et under the stairs. But, Pelosi fired the first shot across the Demo­c­rat ships bow, Biden is out and Kamala is in.

Con­comi­tant with the debate fias­co, the Supreme Court rat­tled the Demo­c­rat cage fur­ther by reveal­ing sev­er­al of its life chang­ing deci­sions includ­ing sweep­ing away the Chevron Doc­trine, a 1984 rul­ing that said: A court is required to uphold an agen­cys inter­pre­ta­tion of a statute as long as the inter­pre­ta­tion is rea­son­able. In order words, the courts (then) must give def­er­ence to the agen­cies. Agen­cies have no spe­cial com­pe­tence in resolv­ing statu­to­ry ambi­gu­i­ties. Courts do! In oth­er words, Democ­rats can­not cre­ate their own Marx­ist top down state con­trol through fed­er­al bureau­cra­cies manned by their own Marx­ist experts. The court rea­soned that courts must exer­cise inde­pen­dent judg­ment in decid­ing whether an agency has act­ed with­in its statu­to­ry author­i­ty and that in the case of ambi­gu­i­ty, courts may not defer to an agen­cys inter­pre­ta­tion of the law. The Supreme court con­clud­ed that giv­ing agen­cies def­er­ence in resolv­ing statu­to­ry ambi­gu­i­ties is mis­guid­ed and incon­sis­tent with the Admin­is­tra­tive Pro­ce­dure Act (APA).

Also, the Supremes ren­dered a deci­sion that changes the judi­cial pro­ceed­ings Joe Biden launched against Don­ald Trump chal­leng­ing Trump’s claim of pres­i­den­tial immu­ni­ty. The Court rec­og­nized the immu­ni­ty a chief exec­u­tive must have, includ­ing Don­ald Trump, to con­duct Amer­i­ca’s busi­ness with­out fear of law­suits. In oth­er words, he must be free from polit­i­cal­ly weaponized charges for per­form­ing his offi­cial duty. That applies to Oba­ma as well as Trump but, left unsaid was its appli­ca­tion to a Pres­i­dent sus­pect­ed of trea­son, a prospect that could loom for Joe Biden.

If Democ­rats can­not defend the inde­fen­si­ble or cre­ate the illu­sion that Joes okay, then whats left. Its already start­ed. Direct and per­son­al attacks on Trump again, like Pelosi did claim­ing Trump had demen­tia. Speak­ing of Pelosi, she wields a big stick and while she might see the poten­tial for the Cal­i­for­nia mafia seiz­ing the pres­i­den­cy. They include: Gavin New­some, a Pelosi nephew by mar­riage, Adam Schiff, some oth­er shirt­tail rel­a­tive and Kamala Har­ris, not relat­ed by blood but by ven­om, replac­ing the aging and incom­pe­tent East coast slugs that put Biden in office. For Pelosi it may become a fam­i­ly thing. Joe tried and failed but none of his fam­i­ly were elect­ed politi­cians. Pelo­sis are. So, the mech­a­nism to slide Joe out of office ear­ly may have already begun but dont bet on it. If Joe goes ear­ly, its Kamala Har­ris who will suc­ceed him, not some igno­rant white dude from a failed Cal­i­for­nia. Just for laughs, keep an eye out for oth­er Cal­i­for­nia politi­cians as their names come up. It could be a fam­i­ly gath­er­ing after all with queen Pelosi on the fam­i­ly throne as Matri­arch. It could hap­pen. I sus­pect she’s work­ing on it, but dont bet on it!

Remem­ber, free­dom is the goal, the Con­sti­tu­tion is the way. Now, go get pre­pared! (02Jul24)
