Joel Berry of Not the Bee argues that it doesn’t matter to the Democrats who their candidate is, and neither should conservatives care who the Republican nominee is at this point.

(a reprise of my comment on another thread yesterday)

This election is not between Trump and Biden: it is between the survival of our Republic and its destruction.

They lied about Biden for one reason. This Independence Day, let me explain what this election is actually about.

Last week was an eye-opening experience for the country. After Biden put his demented doddering on display for millions of horrified Americans, we watched his Democrat boosters in the media panic live on-air. For a brief, yet satisfying moment, the country saw things as they really were — an unqualified cynical liar with dementia, propped up by an unqualified cynical media with Trump Derangement Syndrome.

The Democrat-controlled media has, shockingly, split in its allegiance to Biden. It’s clear there’s war brewing in the party.

But whether the nominee is Biden, Kamala, or even Michelle Obama, it doesn’t matter. The person in the position is irrelevant. At this point, it’s clear the Democrats would support anyone – alive or not, qualified or not – if they ran against Trump.

We can stop pretending this is a race between two men over who is more qualified to lead. This is no longer about Biden and Trump.

This is about two competing — and incompatible — worldviews.
These worldviews differ in the most fundamental ways. They disagree on the very nature of reality, mankind, goodness, and God.

One side must win, and one must be destroyed.
…
With two extremely flawed candidates standing as figureheads for two incompatible worldviews, we can start being honest about what this race is about.

This is a contest between friends of America’s founding, and enemies of America’s founding. It’s a contest between God-worshippers and Marxist power-worshippers. It’s a contest between humans and anti-humans.

Regardless of who the candidate is in November, vote accordingly.

Joel gives a very articulate exposition of why he makes these claims.

It is possible that the Supreme Court just gave permission for him to Fire Them All (which he should have done the first time.)

Oddly, the best (certainly the longest) analysis I’ve seen of the Immunity decision is by Aaron Walker at Twitchy!

Presently, there’s a national conversation about how misleading the MSM has been. Within Team Joe, junior staffers are also blaming senior staff for keeping them in the dark.

It turns out that curated news is essentially fecal matter held back from sewage treatment. Over years, many consumers of MSM content became addicted to it. They love the taste, the texture, and the rich full-bodied aroma (apologies to Maxwell House).

The Debate was a wakeup call for some MSM consumers. Hopefully, the awakened are sufficient in number to negate the votes of remaining addicts in the coming election. Due to ripple effects, the spectacle of Joe’s implosion could eventually become known as The Debate That Changed the World.

News of the curated content the media has for decades been feeding the public is much bigger than any so-called issues they report on.

But what got me watching the entire webcast instead of just checking the status of the launch before bed as I intended was how much fun the webcast hosts made the launch. They were truly a joy to watch.

I know rocket launches aren’t for everyone, but if you want to feel a little bit better about the future of America on this, our birthday, check it out.

My apologies for the commercials. They weren’t there when I originally watched it. I wish I knew how Neo gets them to play without.

I’ve heard two stories — (1) Cagney barely kept up with his fast-paced soliloquy in the film and decided to retire, (2) Cagney had such animosity with a fellow actor that he stopped acting.

It’s been 20+ years since I saw the film, but as I recall, it was worthwhile. Plus who knew Cagney was still acting in the 1960s?

Orson Welles described Cagney as:

…maybe the greatest actor who ever appeared in front of a camera.

RIP.

Hunter may be there to ensure that Joe doesn’t get encouraged to resign by his staff. And he may be there to be able to remind Joe about what was said.
