Republican Congressman Blames DEI For Failures Which Led To Donald Trump Assassination Attempt

Republican House Rep. Tim Burchett criticized the head of the Secret Service in the aftermath of the attempted assassination on Donald Trump.

Rep. Burchett of Knoxville, Tennessee, labeled Kimberly Cheatle a “diversity hire” amid heavy criticism of the agency’s handling of security at Trump’s now infamous rally in Butler, PA, on Saturday, July 13. Critics have questioned how shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks was able to access an open rooftop around 400-500 feet away from the former president’s stage, as well as the response to eyewitness concerns before the shooting began.

Furthermore, footage of a female Secret Service agent failing to holster her gun alongside her inability to shield the 6’ 3” Trump has brought increased scrutiny upon the Secret Service.

The agency has an objective to increase the number of female staff to 30% by 2030, while director Cheatle – formerly senior director of global security at PepsiCo – has previously called for more “diverse candidates” to join the agency.

Speaking to Fox News, Rep. Burchett blamed DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) initiatives for the failings at the Trump rally.

“Somebody really dropped the ball. You’ve got a DEI person, a DEI initiative person who heads up our Secret Service,” said Burchett. “You know she was working at Pepsi before this. I know she was a former CIA Secret Service agent, but still, this is what happens when you don’t put the best players in.”

Many on social media were in agreement with Burchett’s remarks about the dangers of DEI hiring.

Others speculated as to whether Cheatle would remain in post should Trump win the presidential election in November.

Joe Biden Hasn’t Held A Full Cabinet Meeting In Almost A Year

As has become undeniable, Joe Biden is no longer the politician he once was… and even then he wasn’t great.

A career stretching back more than half a decade to 1970 is likely to end within the coming months. The polls – unusually so for a Republican – suggest Donald Trump will win the presidential election in November.

Whether President Biden will be Trump’s opponent is a still uncertain, though Biden says he intends to stay in the race.

His fiercest critics will argue that it’s been a long time coming. However, if there was any doubt as to Biden’s future, even if his strongest allies are struggling to defend his public gaffes.

Confusing the presidents of a hostile country (Volodymyr Zelensky with Vladimir Putin) and an ally is unforgettable, and downright embarrassing, when the latter has received billions in taxpayer dollars to support his country’s war against an aggressor.

Behind closed doors tells a similar tale. A CNN report details the Cabinet meetings – or lack thereof – hosted by the President. The few he does attend are preluded with submitted questions or key talking points, with one source describing it as “kind of an act.”

Cabinet meetings are reportedly so infrequent that it has been some nine months since the last one on October 2, 2023. Perhaps it’s why few Democrats have spoken on Biden’s condition, given that they have not seen him for the best part of a year (though it’s more likely the knew and pretended otherwise).

Many were shocked when the article was shared on X.

One person noted a previous instance where a President was incapacitated and unable to hold meetings.

There are also constitutional considerations at hand.

Elon Musk Slams Joy Reid After Her Latest Crazy Comments on “White Christian Nationalism”

Woke MSNBC host Joy Reid had yet another public meltdown on social media platform X prompting a response from owner and CEO Elon Musk.

In a three-minute rant, a visibly emotional Reid discussed the ongoing political atmosphere and urged voters to “keep white, male, Christian dominance” out of political power in a clear reference to Republican presumptive nominee Donald Trump.

Amid growing speculation over President Joe Biden’s future, Reid added that she “don’t care” who the Democrats choose to take on the former president, adding that it would be “fabulous” if Vice President Kamala Harris stepped up to the plate.

“All that matters in this upcoming election is that you keep that man, and this Project 2025 plan, out of power – that’s all you need to understand,” Reid said. “To do that, you’re going to need to vote against the party which has embraced white Christian nationalism.”

In addition to voting against Trump, Reid urged voters to elect Democrats at all levels of government.

Reid’s tirade attracted the attention of X CEO Musk.

Many agreed with Musk’s accusation of racism from Reid.

Others questioned as to why she was still employed by the national broadcaster.

Rumors have continued to swirl over Biden’s future following his shocking performance at the first presidential debate. Multiple senior Democrats have privately and publicly called for him to stand aside, while Trump now holds a historic lead over the President. Any decision on a successor must be made before the party’s convention in the middle of August.

Biden Campaign Deals “Disinformation” with Fake “Trump” Website

There seems to be no end to the deception that Joe Biden, his family, and his campaign will engage in to keep the senile octogenarian in the White House this fall. Online conservative news outlet “amuse” has discovered that the Biden campaign bought a domain name and created a website in order to fool Americans into believing Donald Trump was associated with a controversial policy paper called Project 2025.

Amuse claims the Biden campaign has posted the fake site on its Twitter/X account, and that’s been seen by at least 1.5 million users.

Despite the Biden campaign’s lies and the public’s misunderstanding, Project 2025 is not Donald Trump’s creation. It is a project of the conservative Heritage Foundation, and Donald Trump has repeatedly clarified that he does not control it and is not involved with it.

The position paper outlines a “180-day playbook” describing what it hopes a President Trump would do in the first 6 months of the presidency. Some of the policy positions include reinvigorating the concept of the family as the most important part of American life, outlawing porn, retreating from economic relations with China, closing the U.S. border, and getting rid of “non-performing” federal workers.

The fake Biden-created website is trumpsproject2025.com. On Twitter, “amuse” notes that the U.S. Department of Justice seized two Russian domains on the same day that the Biden campaign launched its fake site. Why did they seize the Russian sites? Irony of ironies—for spreading election “disinformation.”

There is so much lying that takes place online that some users did not initially believe the “amuse” report.

Amuse shot back with this:

Others immediately picked up on the “rules for thee, but not for me” operating style of the Biden White House.

Another user pointed out how sloppy power-hungry politicians will get when they correctly detect that there are seldom, if ever, any consequences for them. Be careful though, and note that this user is not actually Elon Musk, but a parody account!

Redditors Fear Citizenship Denial After “Accidentally” Registering To Vote

A Redditor who claims to be a non-citizen of the United States has detailed their experience where they were registered to vote upon a visit to the Department for Motor Vehicles (DMV).

The anonymous user is one of multiple instances shared in a lengthy thread shared on X. This particular green card holder “accidentally registered to vote” when renewing their driving license in January 2022.

One Redditor described how they were confused by the use of the word “resident” when checking their eligibility. They added that they had no idea whether they were able to vote after their voting rights were part of their college application.

One man whose ex-girlfriend is a green card holder described how she registered to vote when applying for her state ID.

Ignorance has not been the only cause of accidental voter registration, however. A permanent resident in Texas, who was aware that “one can be denied U.S. citizenship” if they attempt to vote, noticed a voter registration card despite not registering or planning to cast their ballot.

One user, who did not have citizenship, was reportedly granted a voter’s card during a visit to the DMV.

Others were less fortunate, expressing concerns over being denied citizenship after accidental voter registration.

It seems to have been an issue which is not recent, with a now-deleted post dating back ten years also featuring in the thread.

Rather worryingly, there were also a number of posts from users who had said they’d been coerced or tricked into registering to vote.

In The Event Of A Nuclear Attack, Who Does The Pentagon Call If Joe Biden Is Asleep?

It’s fair to say the world is a tumultuous place at the moment.

Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine remains ongoing, with airstrikes targeting children’s hospitals in the capital Kyiv. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s demand that Russia withdraws all forces from internationally recognized Ukrainian territory are unlikely to be met while the Kremlin’s demand Ukraine hands over areas Russian troops do not currently control means peace negotiations are unlikely to take place anytime soon.

It’s not exactly a peaceful atmosphere in the Pacific, either. China’s military drills around Taiwan have caused international concern, while North Korea continues its nuclear weapons program despite United Nation sanctions.

In short, there could be a situation where the Commander-in-Chief is called upon in the middle of the night. So, if the Pentagon detects an incoming nuclear missile and President Joe Biden has clocked off for the evening, who is called upon to make a crucial decision.

Well, that question was answered by White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday, July 9, when a reporter asked what would happen if a nuke was heading towards the United States outside the President’s sharpest hours.

“[Biden] has a team that lets him know of any news that is impertinent and important to the American people,” she told reporters.

That’s thoroughly reassuring…

The one user who tried to defend the Press Secretary’s remarks was met with immense backlash.

At best, President Biden is leader of the free world for another six months. That, to many, is a scary, scary thought.

Democrats Trail GOP Post-July 4 For First Time In Two Decades

For the past 20 years, the Democrat Party presumptive nominee has led the Republican alternative in the Real Clear Polling (RCP) poll immediately after the Independence Day weekend.

Of course, this has not always led to a Democrat taking the White House. Hilary Clinton led Donald Trump by 4.7 percentage points at this stage in the 2016 electoral cycle but would later go on to lose the election. Likewise, John Kerry was unable to retain his two-point lead over incumbent George W. Bush in 2004 with the Republican emerging triumphant to secure four more years in the White House.

This year, however, it’s different.

Former president Trump leads incumbent Joe Biden by four points in the latest presidential election poll, which only narrows down to three when just the GOP and Democrat candidates are considered.

Needless to say, the debate didn’t help Biden much.

Ultimately, a poll is nothing more than that – a poll. The only one that matters, at the end of the day, is the one on election day which decides the presidency.

Of course, they can also be skewed to favor arguments for one candidate over another.

Nevertheless, such a historic discrepancy can only hurt the Democrats. Doubts over Biden’s fitness to run for president (let alone serve) have grown in recent weeks. Truth be told, attempts to calm the storm by the White House have hardly been met with resounding acclaim either.

Should the party want to change its candidate, it has only one month left before Biden is confirmed as the presidential nominee. The question many are wondering: if not Biden, then who?

CNN’s Jake Tapper Shocks Nation By Telling The Truth

It’s amazing what a bit of reality can do when it hits someone smack in the face.

Like almost every other legacy news network, CNN has long abandoned any standards of objectivity in journalism. Since at least 2016 when Donald Trump was elected president, the network has joined MSNBC and most others to act as nakedly partisan shills for the Democratic Party. No lie—the “Russiagate” hoax, the denial over Hunter Biden’s laptop— was too untruthful to tell so long as it helped keep Bad Orange Man out of office.

But now, in a segment some are calling the “the greatest CNN segment in history,” Joe Biden has been such a trainwreck that even Jake Tapper is excoriating him.

What makes it so remarkable? Well, the fact that Tapper tells the candid truth and does not pretend that he cannot see what the rest of us can see: Joe Biden is a very old man in the grip of senile dementia. We’re so used to the press blatantly lying about what we can all see that it’s disorienting to hear so much truth from cable news.

Tapper starts out this way: “In reality, 72 percent of voters say they believe President Biden is too old; that’s according to CNN’s most recent polling. Voters have been saying this for quite a long time. The reality is that the Democratic elites are mostly late to acknowledge these age inability issues compared to the rest of the public.”

You’re late, too, Tapper, but we suppose better late than never. Of course, it’s nigh-on impossible for Tapper not to face the truth as he co-moderated the debate between Trump and Biden in which Biden presented to the world as a shambling reanimated corpse.

Tapper then quotes Biden directly to underscore how badly Biden’s brain has declined. He reads the following words from the President:
“Fact of the matter is how can you assure you’re going to be out on you know your way to go you know work tomorrow age age wasn’t you know the idea that I’m too old.”

Then Tapper says, “Keep in mind, that soundbite is supposed to be reassuring.”

Let’s see what Twitter/X users had to say.

Many are appropriately skeptical about CNN’s turn-about.

We feel pretty sure this post speaks for most Wokespy readers:

VP Harris Breaks Irony Meters Across America After SCOTUS Decision

It would be cute if it weren’t maddening. Vice President Kamala Harris is worried that a Trump administration would weaponize the government and persecute their political opponents. You’ve got to watch and listen to believe it:

If Trump were to do that, he’d be taking a page out of the Biden/Harris playbook to do so (among that of many other swamp creatures).

Harris was reacting to the recent Supreme Court decision that established that presidents have absolute immunity from legal prosecution for official acts. Chief Justice John Roberts clarified that no president is “above the law,” and that immunity does not apply to non-official acts.

Reversing the truth seems to be the only tool in the left’s belt, and Madam Vice President did it like a pro. In the video, she tells the reporter, “When we have a candidate in Donald Trump who’s openly said he’ll be a dictator on day one, that he will weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies, it’s very likely that he could be immune from those kinds of acts.”

The grammatical confusion in the quote above is as spoken by Harris. She goes on to stump for another Biden-Harris presidency, saying the stakes are too high for Americans under Trump.

The rest of the left immediately began shrieking too, of course, and they seemed to reverse the meaning of the court’s ruling. California Rep. Zoe Lofgren gives a good example in theorizing that Biden could dispatch the military to take out conservative Justices in the court.

Of course, the SCOTUS ruling would allow no such thing, and Harris and her ilk know this. But since when has that ever stopped the queen of confusion from tossing us another word salad. After all, this is the woman who can’t stop saying, “I can imagine what can be, unburdened by what has been.” Here’s a greatest hits round up.


Let’s see what Twitter/X users had to say about Harris’ fears of a Trump dictatorship.

This user got it right.

We agree with Heatherheather007.

The mockery just kept coming.

Great News For Donald Trump: Joe Biden Is Staying In The Race

Joe Biden’s campaign insists he is remaining in the race for the Presidential Election despite a dismal performance in the first televised debate of 2024.

In what many believed to be Biden’s best opportunity to disprove Republican claims over his competency to serve in the White House, the President stumbled and bumbled his way through much to the ridicule of many on social media.

The Democrat’s performance was even questioned on the night by Republican rival Donald Trump, who hilariously stated at one point that he “didn’t really know” what the 81-year-old was saying in response to a question over immigration, adding that Biden himself probably doesn’t know what he’s saying either.

Biden’s failure to surpass the low expectations set prior to the debate on Thursday, June 27, prompted many to consider whether there was still time for the Democrats to find a replacement prior to the party convention in August.

Despite that, the Biden campaign is staying in the race:

For reasons unclear to most of us, the Biden campaign maintains his ability to run and serve as President, and confirmed he will take part in the next scheduled debate on Tuesday, September 10.

Many, including Democrats, remain skeptical, with some alluding to Biden’s persistence as a positive for former president Trump.

Others noted how the President’s poor showing had been heavily criticized by mainstream media outlets.

Rumors of a potential successor have ranged from Biden loyalist and Governor of California Gavin Newsom to Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro. That said, social media commenters had other ideas as to who may be disappointed.

What’s your opinion? Should the Democrats drop Biden for someone else or let him stay in the race? Let us know in the comments.
