Has anyone mentioned that blackmailers always come back for more?
The fearless troll in the White House, maybe?

I watched none of either convention. I would not have liked this choice for his major speech.
I opposed busing when Joe did and I oppose it now, by the way.
Biden’s Intended Race on Race
Biden’s speech told America all we needed to know about why Biden chose Harris — despite their acrimonious past — and where Biden intends to take his campaign over the next two months.
If Joe has his way, this will be a race on race.
His acceptance speech’s first words, after “good evening,” were “Ella Baker, a giant of the civil rights movement, left us with this wisdom: Give people light and they will find a way. Give people light, those are words for our time.”
Having connected his campaign message with “light,” he would use “light” repeatedly throughout his 25-minute address.
Although lacking specifics, his subliminal racial message was clear: I am the anti-racist; if you are not with me, you are a racist or condone racism.
For those on whom such subtlety might be lost, he was explicit too. He called out “communities who have known the injustice of the ‘knee on the neck.’”
Biden also listed “the most compelling call for racial justice since the ’60s” as one of the “four historic crises” he enumerated.
When mentioning coronavirus’s economic impact, he singled out minority communities as “bearing the brunt of it.”
Race was everywhere.
The speech’s fulcrum was the implication that Biden was doing far more than just running for president.
Biden laid claim to leading a movement to complete the work of the 1960s civil rights movement.
“History has thrust one more urgent task on us. Will we be the generation that finally wipes the stain of racism from our national character?”
Biden even cited the Charlottesville protests of three years earlier as the motivation behind his campaign (despite not announcing for another two years): “For me, a call for action. At that moment, I knew I’d have to run.”

The not terribly perceptive ultra-left at The Guardian is getting a bad feeling.
With Donald Trump and this election, it feels ominously like 2016 all over again
We could so easily step into another Electoral College victory for a populist authoritarian clown who loses the popular vote.

This writer is full of foreboding and doubts about Biden's stay-mum strategy, but had Biden spoken up much earlier and attacked the rioters from the start and equally hammered the leftism this writer so loves, where would the support of the Bernie Bros and racist/racial leftists have gone?
He doesn't see that it isn't Trump's entirely fictitious political genius that has made a second term increasingly likely.
Nor some lack of political wit on Biden's part.
He doesn't know to ask himself these questions.

Are the Democrats going to be sunk because their party so heavily depends on ultras whom they cannot get to the polls without embracing or appearing to embrace positions feared and loathed even by most Democrats, let alone the rest of America?
Or is that dependence merely a self-destructive delusion or poor strategic choice from which Democrats may yet hope to recover?
Though not before this election has run its course.
Perhaps losing twice in a row to a naked emperor with nothing at all to commend him but the deplorable talents of a clown might teach them that lesson.
A Democratic turf war is raging — even as progressives try to elect Biden
Is Biden Ceding the Law-and-Order Issue?

Is Biden Ceding the Law-and-Order Issue?
Just to clarify
Kneeling on the neck of an habitual criminal for seven or eight minutes until he dies is murder.
Shooting a fleeing habitual criminal to death as he flees when much less force would have worked is murder, even if some cop manual permits or even recommends it.
But I am not on board for the absurd mythology of overwhelming and overwhelmingly powerful racism, systemic or otherwise, exploited and spread every election season by the depraved propaganda of Democrats without concern for its destructive consequences.
And I am even further from on board with condoning or tolerating riots for three f-ing months.
Update 8/30.
George Floyd wasn't killed by Dereck Chauvin. He od'd on recreational drugs. The kneeling had nothing to do with it and was apparently by the book.
Jacob Blake's shooting might have been by the book. Seems he was a fleeing felon resisting arrest and had or was reaching for a weapon.

Details on the Rittenhouse shootings
Breaking Down The Videos Of The Two Shooting Incidents In Kenosha — Self-Defense?
Great detail.
Does look like self-defense.
The post does not address the question whether it was illegal in Wisconsin for a 17 year old to go armed.
The people KR shot are so far of unidentified race, I think.
Would that be so if they were black?
The people KR shot are so far of unidentified race, I think.
Would that be so if they were black?
GOP talking points urge Joe B was silent on rioting from the outset until just the other night, demanding why he didn't once condemn it all that time.
They are very boldly hanging the riots on the Democrats and Biden in particular.
Blake's lawyer on CNN just minutes ago was angrily complaining Rittenhouse wasn't shot by Illinois police when they arrested him.
My guess he didn't resist arrest.
He's on video trying to surrender to police that night in Kenosha.
Democratic media are absolutely lambasting this kid.
You would think he'd gone into a black church and sprayed the worshippers with gunfire, killing dozens.
Nobody is telling the audience what actually happened, how the shootings occurred.
Not once.

Clyburn and other major Democratic leaders blame the Duce for ALL American virus deaths.
Clyburn just now vigorously and angrily doubled down when Cavuto gave him a chance to back away.
Have the Dem specialists in race politics yet ascribed Trump's utterly botched virus response on his personal, or systemic, or institutional racism?
If not, it won't be long.
If not, it won't be long.

Piling it on for the election
To its regularly scheduled shows encouraging blacks to see racism in the clouds, on slices of toast, and in tree rings CNN will add regularly scheduled programming to encourage women to see sexism in all the same places.
In both cases, of course, it will go with much saying that the solution - the only solution - is to vote to put Democrats in power.
Update 8/22/20.
BBC News is running a beautifully photographed, brilliantly produced series on African history emphasizing the achievements of sub-Saharan civilization and the beastly horrors of the transatlantic slave trade and European imperialism/colonialism.
BBC's 1619 project.
Deeply biased history as justification for racism against whites and a deeply racist political agenda.
CNN blasts out using the virus for race propaganda, again
The explanation for racial and ethnic disparities in infection rates, severity of infection, and death from infection is the accompanying disparities in relative wealth or relative poverty.
And it is by no means as if only nonwhites in America are poor.
There are far more poor whites than nonwhites in this country, and this means they are in the same ways disproportionately victims of the virus, too.
This is certainly an argument for public action to ensure every American has good quality health insurance and everyone in America has good quality medical care.
Not a peep about that on any "news" network.
Not on Fox since it would put their idiot viewers on notice.
Not on CNN, MSNBC, or BBC because howling about race works so much better for today's Democrats and the Democratic racist/racial left.

This is much worse than spinning.
CNN has turned what could and should have been a news-rich story revealing the stunning difference relative wealth or poverty makes regarding virus risk of infection, severity, and death in the US and indeed the world as a whole into a blistering attack of racist/racial vitriol.
An attack on America and an attack on white America.
To them, there is only one explanation and you know what it is, "systemic racism", "a history of racism", "the legacy of slavery, segregation, and racism".
These variables affect whether you live, die or get help during the pandemic

These variables affect whether you live, die or get help during the pandemic
Still, the disparities are indeed stunning.
Black, Latino and Native American people are nearly three times as likely to ebe infected with Covid-19 than their White counterparts. Those three groups are about five times as likely to be hospitalized. And people of color across the board are more likely to die of the virus.
. . . .
Race affects who is able to flee from a viral hotspot to a second home and who shares a roof with family members across generations. It affects who is able to work remotely and who has to leave home to keep society afloat. It affects who has easy access to testing and who puts off treatment because they're worried about the costs.
In other words, as the US approaches six million confirmed coronavirus cases, race plays a major role in who lives, who dies and who gets help.
She tells an awful story.
She says "they're lying" a lot, and is right.
Weird sexist bit at the end about women, protecting families, and the virus.
GOP Senator Bill Cassidy, a doctor, tests positive for COVID-19

Christian groups unveil new criminal justice reform push
A coalition of Christian groups including the Church of God in Christ and the National Association of Evangelicals is launching a new criminal justice reform push that seeks to rally believers behind policing changes grounded in biblical principles.
Set to be announced Wednesday, the Prayer & Action Justice Initiative has its roots in a campaign started in the aftermath of the coronavirus to help save small churches at risk of closing, with top contributors to that work now channeling their energy toward the criminal justice project.
It is expected to include prayer gatherings, nonviolent protests and policy advocacy — all aimed at advancing the cause of racial equity in the justice system.
Sometimes bipartisan support means "Oh, shit."
Note the apparent extent of buy in from religious conservatives.
At the heart of the nonpartisan effort are a set of broad priorities that include some specific policy changes.
For example, the initiative is calling for greater public disclosure of reports on use of force by law enforcement agents, deaths in custody and other metrics.
Other elements of its agenda include easing sentencing laws and limits on parole releases, as well as the use of faith-based prison programs and other infrastructure to help inmates prepare for life after release.
The project comes two years after President Donald Trump signed a bipartisan criminal justice reform bill into law that moved ahead thanks in part to the support of some leading Christians, including evangelicals and Black ministry leaders.
However, the changes that measure made were widely seen as only a beginning of work on the issue.
Among the Christian leaders backing the initiative are Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference as well as a past faith adviser to Trump, and Rev. Gabriel Salguero, president of the National Latino Evangelical Coalition, a speaker at this week's Democratic National Convention.

When elites want something the newsies tell you it's the only decent and just thing in about a hundred different ways.
Reparations.
CNN, BBC, MSNBC, and almost all Democratic media.
Wait for some anti-Trump Republicans to get on board.
Joe B is on board.
The only way it doesn't happen in the next president's first term is the Great Fat Orange Klansman wins another term.
KH says talking about systemic racism and pointing to racism on the other ticket will bring out the black vote and thus win the election.
The lying and delusional racial left has possessed not only the Democratic media but the bottom of the top of the Democratic ticket.
They are selling the idea the Democrats can't win except by going way out left on race, relying on that as the only way to get more black votes and believing reliance on black votes is their only path to the White House.
Exactly as Fox says.
In tones of horror, of course.
But their ticket has Joe Biden at the top.
A guy who already had the black vote without all the racial and racist lies and is beating Trump even now by taking his white votes all over the country and crucially in battleground states.
The truth is the election is all about the safety, sanity, honesty, and normalcy of old nice white guy Joe B beating out the crazy, stupid, lunatic, pathological liar and utterly incompetent Trump.
The virus more than anything has highlighted that same contrast.
All the race bullshit of the racial/racist left is just bullshitters taking advantage of an almost certain victory they do nothing to help.
Like the noisy rooster trying to convince you his racket made the sun rise.
Except they might diminished or even prevent Joe's victory by driving away moderates and white voters.
Just as the Trumpists hope.

CNN, MSNBC, and BBC are all in that America - white America - owes reparations to American blacks for slavery, at least
The burning question of the hour is how to pay and how much.
That is the line apparently adopted by many pro-Democratic media all over America.
CNN has a prime time show commercials for which show the host interviewing a few black people on that question.
All three demand a lot.
One insists to an apparently approving interviewer (the show's host W. Kamau Bell) that fully paying up would "break America".
These are, of course, the same people who yearn for the demographic sorpasso of nonwhites over whites in America to come as soon as possible, welcome policies that allow or speed that eventuality, and furiously denounce policies that would retard or prevent it as racism worthy of the ragingest of black rage.

But would that make it Trump v. Harris?
If Joe, for whatever reason, dropped out.
Bernie and his supporters would sure as heck question that, I think, if Joe was out before the convention anointed anyone.
Anybody might question that, given the GOP might well run better against a woman of color not so well known they can't paint her as a crazy radical, which they are already doing without too much trouble.
Interesting question which way AOC and the Squad would jump.
Of course, Bernie actually is a crazy radical, but he's an old and well known white guy as well as a crazy radical, and that's probably a better combination for white voters Trump needs in battleground states than a relatively little known woman of color.
Though if Bernie bumped her off the ticket that might cost him nearly all the black support he would absolutely have to have to win.
Fox News host baselessly claims that 'something's going to happen' to Joe Biden
She just went a little over the line, maybe, in course of playing her part in Fox's propaganda onslaught that Old Dodderin' and Sleepy Joe is just a Trojan horse for flaming, insane radical black woman nutjob Kamala Harris.
All of Fox's talking heads are fairly shouting it's really Trump vs Harris and Joe is at best a signature monkey for the craziest, darkest (heh, heh) elements of the "Democrat Party".
More of that by now infamous Republican projection, I'd say.
Claiming Joe will not even make it to election night is just making the prospect all the more terrifying, eh?
The Fox News opinion host Jeanine Pirro baselessly suggested on Wednesday evening that "something's going to happen" to the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, Joe Biden, and that it would cause the former vice president to be removed from the ballot during the presidential election in November.

"I have a sense that something's going to happen before the election and he's not even going to be on the ticket, so don't even ask me if he's going to make the four years," she added.
So far as I can tell, she actually is further to the left than Joe B, and she was that at the beginning of the campaign, at the end of the campaign, and in response to the Floyd killing, protests, and riots.
And as she so painfully and forcefully pointed out during the debates, she was and all but incontestably still is to his left of racial matters.
I am truly not sure where that puts her relative to registered Democrats or Democrat-leaning independents.
But she is definitely to the left of this guy, my very own Democratic Congressman, and apparently also to the left of my Democratic Senator.

If he's much like his Dad I despise him already
But this is all racist, anti-white bullshit.
As is this, by the way, and it's relevance will be apparent to readers of this Newsweek article.
Whites are more comfortable with O than with, say, Louis Farrakhan, Stokely Carmichael, Malcolm X., Jeremiah Wright, or even the younger (or just more candid?) version of Al Sharpton, so they are lauded as real while O is scorned as magical and - no kidding - articulate.
Georgia Democrat Faces Calls to Drop Out of Senate Race Over 'Racist' Novel
The book, which is likely not very good, far from flatteringly depicts a white racist who's maybe more than a little bats and - big surprise - often uses the word "nigger" in his thoughts.
For this and other, like literary sins, the black chairwoman of the George Democratic Party castigates Matt Lieberman mightily, as does James Woodall, the president of the Georgia NAACP.
The character just might be a satiric version of Trump, particularly since the author says the book was written after the Charlottesville affair.
At the time, Trump memorably spoke to the nation of the good people among the neo-Nazis, Klansmen, and other alt.right demonstrators in that city.
And as to the n-word, he was often reported back than as a frequent flier.
Lieberman, an attorney and former principal of an Atlanta Jewish school, is one of 21 contenders running in the special election for Sen. Kelly Loeffler’s (R-Ga.) seat.
He rejected criticism over his novel in a statement to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, saying he penned the story in response to the white supremacist neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville in 2017.
Lieberman referred to it as a “clear-eyed and honest look at racism in America.”
“The fact that I published this book has been known since I began this campaign last year, so an attack surfacing only now is testament to the strength of my candidacy today,” he said.
He rejected call to drop out of the race.

More than half a century of racial demagogy from the Democrats has driven both parties into indelibly racial, and racist, political identities and agendas
While the left media that bear almost all the guilt for this of course project the blame entirely onto the right.
Trumpism has taken over: but what happens to the Republican Party if Trump loses?
Trumpism has taken over: but what happens to the Republican Party if Trump loses?
Is that really a good propaganda move? Assimilating systemic racism denial to climate change denial?
The Specter of Systemic Racism.
“Spectral evidence,” unverified and unverifiable, is no more or less tangible than today’s “systemic racism,” an accusation leveled against police departments, government agencies, and businesses.
If there is racism “in the system,” who, precisely, is responsible—both everyone in general and no one in specific?
And what constitutes an act of systemic racism?
These claims of institutional or systemic racism are no more amenable to proof than “microaggressions,” “dog whistles,” or “triggering,” not to mention “climate change.”
And yet, those who claim it—like their Salem counterparts—must be believed, per se.
It is interesting that the right media regularly and repeatedly and even urgently attribute the riots initiated by the murder of George Floyd by police to antifa and not to BLM, rarely even mentioning the latter, though both espouse bitterly anti-America ideologies, with the latter at least also being bitterly anti-white.
What's up with that?

Trump claims Biden 'no longer worthy of the Black Vote' in wake of diversity comment
President Trump on Friday said his presumptive Democratic challenger Joe Biden “is no longer worthy of the Black Vote,” after the former vice president made comments contrasting African American and Latino diversity.
"After yesterday’s statement, Sleepy Joe Biden is no longer worthy of the Black Vote!" Trump tweeted Friday morning.
. . . .
In both [his] tweets, the president was referring to Biden’s remarks during an interview that aired at the convention of the National Association of Black Journalists and National Association of Hispanic Journalists.
During the interview, Biden was pressed over whether he would “re-engage” with Cuba as president—something the interviewer noted would have an impact on Cuban-American voters in Florida.
“Yes, yes," Biden responded.
"And by the way, what you all know, but most people don’t know, unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes about different things.”
He elaborated, "You go to Florida, you find a very different attitude about immigration in certain places than you do when you're in Arizona, so it's a very diverse community.”
Republicans are pairing Biden's remark up with his earlier remark that anyone who'd vote for Trump "ain't black", and mixing both with their current line that old Joe's a bit light between the ears.

Kanye West indicates he is running for president to siphon votes from Joe Biden
Kanye West hinted that his presidential campaign is designed to spoil former Vice President Joe Biden’s bid to unseat President Trump this November, according to a new report.
West and a Forbes editor were exchanging messages Thursday following reports that Republican activists were helping get the billionaire hip-hop star on the ballot in multiple states to help Trump’s reelection and siphon votes away from Biden.
When asked about the motivation for his 2020 ambitions, West replied that he was “walking,” rather than running.
At least 6 Republican operatives, some tied to Trump camp, working to get Kanye West on the 2020 ballot
At least six operatives who have been prominently involved in the Republican political world have been linked to Kanye West's captivating 11th-hour independent 2020 presidential bid.
As the rivalry between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden intensifies with less than three months to go until the election, the involvement of the operatives in West's campaign, some of whom have ties to Trump's camp, raises questions about the motives of those helping to put his name on the ballot.
"Raises questions"? How cute.
