<blockquote>
	
		Harris also spoke to the firefighters about what the administration needs do "in particular around federal support for local firefighters on every issue," noting her own personal history with wildfires in the state.

	
		"We've had to be evacuated a couple of times. I'm a California kids were you know about drought and what that means. And I the climate crisis and what that means in terms of creating an environment that is hazardous. Particularly for you, who are on the front line," she said.

		Harris said the coronavirus pandemic affected the supply chain significantly and blamed Vladimir Putin's war on Ukraine for why costs are so high.

Now, in another public display of LGBTQ+ representation, Pierce can say he's the first person to attend an event at the residence of the vice president while in drag.

	
		Vice President&nbsp;Kamala Harris&nbsp;invited Pierce to speak as Shangela on Tuesday evening at a&nbsp;Pride Month&nbsp;event she hosted at her home, also known as Number One Observatory Circle. According to Pierce, the evening itself marked the first time a VP has hosted a Pride event at the residence.

After Multiple Shootings, White House Sends Kamala to Chicago

What does it take to touch off a revolt of the farmers? Environmental regulations that North Korea would<a href="https://www.marketscreener.com/news/latest/Dutch-farmers-protest-by-blocking-supermarket-distribution-centres--40889267/"> find too onerous</a>.

<blockquote>
	
		Dutch farmers angered by government plans that may require them to use less fertilizer and reduce livestock began a day of protests in the Netherlands on Monday by blocking supermarket distribution hubs in several cities.

	
		Amsterdam's Schiphol airport and KLM, the Dutch arm of Air France, have advised travellers to use public transport, rather than cars, to reach the airport, as farmers' activist groups said on social media they planned to use tractors to block roads.

	
		Several traffic jams were reported on highways in the east of the country and on ferry routes in the north, but none near Schiphol during the morning commute.

	
		At the heart of the protest are targets introduced last month to reduce harmful nitrogen compounds by 2030, the latest attempt to tackle a problem that has plagued the country for years.

	
		Reductions are necessary in emissions of nitrogen oxides from farm animal manure and from the use of ammonia in fertilizer, the government says, estimating a 30% reduction in the number of livestock is needed.
</blockquote>


	A 30% reduction is massive, would change life for everyone, not to mention the economy and food prices. But now this is a<a href="https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/07/03/dutch-uprising-in-response-to-the-world-economic-forum-controlled-government/"> proper insurrectio</a>n.

<blockquote>
	
		The protest comes just days after Dutch farmers sprayed several public buildings with manure after politicians voted on proposals to&nbsp;reduce emissions of harmful pollutants.

	
		This plan could actually force farmers to reduce their livestock or even stop working altogether.
</blockquote>


	That can't make the buildings dirtier, though it probably didn't do anything good for the manure.


	They do have <a href="https://www.ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/ap-online/2022/07/04/dutch-farmers-block-entrances-to-supermarket-warehouses">a good point</a> to make.

<blockquote>
	
		Police looked on but did not immediately take action Monday as some 25 tractors parked outside a distribution center for supermarket chain Albert Heijn in the town of Zaandam, just north of Amsterdam. Placards and banners affixed to the tractors read messages including, “Our farmers, our future.”

	
		A tractor at another protest, in the northern town of Drachten, urged people to “think for a moment about what you want to eat without farmers.”
</blockquote>


	California growers have been putting out the same messages for a long time... to no avail.

<blockquote>
	
		The umbrella organization for supermarkets called on police to take action and warned of possible shortages on supermarket shelves.

	
		“Blockades of distribution centers hurt the citizens of the Netherlands. Supermarkets do everything they can to keep the stores stocked, but if blockades continue, it could lead to people not being able to do their daily shopping,” the Central Bureau for Food Trade said in a statement.
</blockquote>


	There'll be a <a href="https://www.brusselstimes.com/environment/246938/farmers-defence-force-derails-the-netherlands-with-burning-hay-and-tractor-blockages">whole lot</a> more shortages when livestock have been cut by 30%. Where do the Dutch expect to get their food? Ukraine? Russia?

<blockquote>
	
		Farmers broke through a police barrier in front of the home of Nature and Nitrogen Minister Van der Wal-Zeggelink, where extra security was placed two weeks earlier. Hay was burnt, firecrackers were thrown at the house, and a police car was pushed aside and destroyed so the tractors could drive into the street,&nbsp;NRC&nbsp;writes. A slurry tanker was also emptied in the street.

	
		Farmers also protested in the Netherlands’ political capital The Hague, where two cows were brought to join in the protests. Prime Minister Mark Rutte called the actions “unacceptable and out of proportion”.
</blockquote>


	Would one cow have been proportionate?&nbsp;

<blockquote>
	
		President Biden said the U.S. will persevere through "unsettling" times in remarks at a July 4th barbecue with military families at the White House.

	
		"The economy is growing, but not without pain. Liberty is under assault, assault both here and abroad," he said. "In recent days, there has been reason to think that this country is moving backward, that freedom has been reduced, that rights we assumed were protected are no longer."
</blockquote>


	Is this the new patriotism, using an event with military families to claim that America is moving backward because killing babies isn't protected by the Constitution?

<blockquote>
	
		"I know it can be exhausting and unsettling," Biden said. "But tonight, I want you to know we're going to get through all of this."

	Who is we? Besides the pink hat brigade&nbsp;that he's actually addressing here.

<blockquote>
	
		He said the United States has always been "a work in progress."

	
		"After we've taken giant steps forward, we've taken a few steps backwards," the president said. "And after doing the hard work of laying the foundation for a better future, the worst of our past has reached out and pulled us back on occasion."

	I'm not sure even Obama would have used a military event on Independence Day to claim that America sucks. But then again he might have.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The only American Exceptionalism that lefties like J.B. Pritzker <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/3545947-illinois-governor-on-mass-shooting-a-celebration-of-america-was-ripped-apart-by-our-uniquely-american-plague/">believe in</a> is that America is uniquely awful and evil.

<blockquote>
	
		Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) pointed to the “uniquely American” problem of gun violence in the wake of Monday’s deadly mass shooting at an Independence Day parade in his state, which left at least six people dead.

	
		“It is devastating that a celebration of America was ripped apart by our uniquely American plague,” Pritzker&nbsp;said&nbsp;in a speech Monday evening from Highland Park.

	
		“It’s the Fourth of July, a day for reflection on our freedoms,” he said. “Our founders carried muskets, not assault weapons, and I don’t think a single one of them would have said that you have a constitutional right to an assault weapon with a high-capacity magazine."
</blockquote>


	Our founders also used printing presses, not the internet. They did however own artillery.


	Anyway, Copenhagen would<a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/copenhagen-shooting-shopping-mall/"> like a word </a>about that "uniquely American" problem.

<blockquote>
	
		Danish police believe a shopping mall shooting that left three people dead and four others seriously wounded was not terror-related, and said Monday that the gunman acted alone and appears to have selected his victims at random. 
		&nbsp; 
		Copenhagen chief police inspector Søren Thomassen said the victims — a 17-year-old boy and a 17-year-old girl, both Danes, and a 47-year-old Russian man — were killed when the gunman opened fire on Sunday afternoon in the Field's shopping mall, one of Scandinavia's biggest. 
		&nbsp; 
		Four other people were treated for gunshot wounds — two Danish and two Swedish citizens — and were in critical but stable condition, Thomassen said. Several other people received minor injuries as they fled the shopping mall, he added.
</blockquote>


	And then there was the Islamic terror attack in Oslo in which two were killed and eight wounded. That was fairly recent.&nbsp;


	I'd say that electing rich fat leftists like Pritzker who hate us is uniquely American, but the Europeans do that too.

This thing that will happen at the January 6 hearings will change everything. It will be incredible except no one will actually be watching. Then every pundit in America will talk about it. But no one will actually pay attention.&nbsp;


	The media will assure us that thing that someone said will change everything. Then they will try to explain why it didn't actually change anything.&nbsp;


	And then they will assure us that the thing that will happen next really will change everything.&nbsp;


	Some pundits will just use a search and replace function to dust off their old articles about the Steele dossier, the Mueller investigation and that time Rachel Maddow drank a pot of coffee and spent 45 minutes hyperventilating while jabbing one stubby finger at a map of Russia, which actually turned out to be a map of Uzbekistan, to rewrite their old articles insisting that this time the thing that just happened is really going to change everything. Honest.&nbsp;


	And if that doesn't change everything, wait till next week, next month or next year.


	Meanwhile, people are paying $7 bucks a gallon and bread is up 60%. And that really does change everything.

	Republican pundits and conservative activists are debating whether they can win in 2024 with the successful Trump agenda, but without the controversial former President Donald Trump as their nominee.


	The Democrats have a similar, but far more serious dilemma with President Joe Biden as the Democratic Party's nominee in 2024.


	Unlike the Trump Administration's successful four years, Biden's tenure has been an utter disaster. There are no policy offsets to the personal liabilities and unpopularity of Biden himself.


	Biden's liabilities transcend his physical infirmities, his advanced age, and his seeming geometric rather than arithmetic rate of mental decline.


	Biden, moreover, proves daily that he is not a nice guy. His excesses, past and present, are precisely those the Left considers mortal sins.


	Walking back Biden's absurdities has become the nonstop, tiresome task of many on the Left. As they face a midterm disaster in November, many no longer see any compensating reasons not to drop Biden.


	When the Republicans take the House of Representatives in 2022 there will be nonstop investigations of Hunter Biden's alleged tax avoidances, his possibly illegal work as an unregistered foreign agent, and Joe Biden's untaxed compensation he received from the Biden lobbying consortium.


	Consider also Biden's nastiness.


	During the 2020 campaign he personally attacked a young co-ed as a "lying dog-faced pony soldier" and a stocky questioner was reduced to "fat."


	Unlike Trump's art of the deal, exaggerations, and distortions, Biden says things that are not simply untrue, but abjectly preposterous - such as the United States currently has a lower inflation rate than major European industrial powers.


	In Biden's world, there were no COVID-19 vaccinations until he took the oath of office. Russian President Vladimir Putin, or the oil companies, or the refiners, or Trump are responsible for the historic crippling gasoline price hikes he caused by canceling drilling and pipeline projects.


	Biden claims his negative-growth, hyperinflating economy is not disastrous but strong.


	He serially lies that he drove a semi-truck. He has not been to the Middle East 38 times. He never received an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy. Nor was he a full professor at the University of Pennsylvania.


	The MAGA movement is not the "most extreme political organization in American history."


	In other words, Biden reveals the same fantasies and plagiarism that ended his 1988 and 2008 presidential campaigns.


	On matters of race and sexuality, Biden is the epitome of that for which the Left, supposedly, has zero tolerance. Biden was infamous for damning with praise candidate Barack Obama as the first "clean" and "articulate" African American presidential candidate.


	In a fake patois, Biden once warned an audience of black professionals that Mitt Romney would "put y'all back in chains."


	During the 2020 campaign, candidate Biden derided a black journalist as a "junkie" and lambasted a radio host and his audience with the claim "you ain't black" if they didn't support his candidacy.


	Spinning racialist fables like Biden's "Corn Pop" stories would brand any conservative politician as a racist. As president, Biden still uses the term "negro," and he called an African American advisor "boy."


	On disturbing matters of sexuality, Biden is even more coarse.


	After the Justice Brett Kavanaugh hearings, the nation was lectured that "women must be believed." But it was the Left who attacked former Biden aide Tara Reade who surfaced in 2016 to accuse then Senator Biden, her former boss, of sexually assaulting her.


	Biden himself had a creepy history of invading the private space of young women - inappropriately kissing them, hugging and squeezing them, and smelling and blowing into their hair and ears.


	Finally, Biden was forced to apologize - sort of - by claiming he belonged to an earlier generation when such aggression was simply normal behavior. It was not then or now.


	The latest controversies whirl around the British tabloid Daily Mail's publication of the diary of Biden's own daughter.


	From the Mail's lurid reporting, Ashley Biden seems to suggest that she showered with her father at an age when "showers w/ my dad (probably [were] not appropriate)." And she seemed to connect Biden familial inappropriateness with her regret over being "hyper-sexualized (at) a young age."


	When Trump was accused by porn star Stormy Daniels of a consensual tryst or was caught on old Access Hollywood tape crudely boasting about touching inappropriately female admirers, the resulting uproar nearly derailed the Trump 2016 campaign.


	The point is not just the asymmetrical treatment that has shielded Biden's cognitive decline, his rude outbursts, his outrageous racialist slurs, and bizarre sexual aggressiveness.


	Instead, the Left now fears Biden's terrible polls and a worse record - and the resulting damage he is doing to the Democratic Party.


	In such a losing political context, Democrats will soon find no further reason to cover for Biden's own serial abhorrent personal behavior on matters of financial probity, sex, race, and truthfulness.


	No wonder they are growing desperate to find ways to cut him loose - without making Vice President Kamala Harris his successor.


	Victor Davis Hanson is a distinguished fellow of the Center for American Greatness. He is a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, and the author of The Second World Wars: How the First Global Conflict Was Fought and Won, from Basic Books.

Racist! Nativist! Profiler! Xenophobe!
Write or say anything about illegal immigration, and one should expect to be called all of that and more—even if a strong supporter of legal immigration. Illegal alien becomes undocumented worker. Anti-immigrant replaces anti-illegal-immigration. “Comprehensive” is a euphemism for amnesty. Triangulation abounds. A fiery op-ed grandstands and deplores the Arizona law, but offers no guidance about illegal immigration — and blames the employer for doing something that the ethnic lobby in fact welcomes.
Nevertheless, here it goes from a supporter of legal immigration: how are we to make sense of the current Arizona debate? One should show concern about some elements of the law, but only in the context of the desperation of the citizens of Arizona. And one should show some skepticism concerning mounting liberal anguish, so often expressed by those whose daily lives are completely unaffected by the revolutionary demographic, cultural, and legal transformations occurring in the American Southwest.
As I understand the opposition to the recent Arizona law, it boils down to something like the following: the federal government’s past decision not to enforce its own law should always trump the state’s right to honor it. That raises interesting questions: Does the state contravene federal authority by exercising it? If the federal government does not protect the borders of a state, does the state have a right to do it itself? The federal government has seemed in the past to be saying that if one circumvented a federal law, and was known to have circumvented federal law with recognized impunity, then there was no longer a law to be enforced.
 
A Losing Political Issue
The politics of illegal immigration are a losing proposition for liberals (one can see that in the resort to euphemism), even if they don’t quite see it that way. Here are ten considerations why.
 
Law?—What Law?
First, there is the simplicity of the argument. One either wishes or does not wish existing law to be enforced. If the answer is no, and citizens can pick and chose which laws they would like to obey, in theory why should we have to pay taxes or respect the speed limit? Note that liberal Democrats do not suggest that we overturn immigration law and de jure open the border — only that we continue to do that de facto. Confusion between legal and illegal immigration is essential for the open borders argument, since  a proper distinction between the two makes the present policy  indefensible—especially since it discriminates against those waiting in line to come to America legally (e.g., somehow our attention is turned to the illegal alien’s plight and not the burdensome paperwork and government obstacles that the dutiful legal immigrant must face).

America’s Extreme Make-over
These are exciting though scary revolutionary times, akin to the constant acrimony in the fourth-century BC polis, mid-nineteenth century revolutionary Europe, or — perhaps in a geriatric replay — the 1960s. This is an era when the fundamental assumptions of the individual and the state are now being redefined, albeit in a weird, high-tech, globalized landscape.
Radical But Well Off
A word of caution: we are not talking about hoi polloi versus hoi oligoi, or the commune on the barricades fighting the estate owners. No, not this time around.
Instead, the present attempt to remake America is the effort of the liberal well-to-do — highly educated at mostly private universities, nursed on three decades of postmodern education, either with inherited wealth or earning top salaries, lifestyles of privilege indistinguishable from those they decry as selfish, and immune from the dictates they impose on others.
Such are basically the profiles of the Obama cabinet and sub-cabinet, the pillars of liberalism in the Congress and state legislatures, the public intellectuals in the universities and foundations, the arts crowd, and the Hollywood elite. Let us be clear about that.
The Distant Poor
They are all battling on behalf of “them,” the poorer half of America, currently in need of some sort of housing, education, food, or legal subsidy, whom the above mentioned elite, in the way they live, send their children to school, socialize, and vacation so studiously avoid.  (The New York Times owners are likely to follow the cut-throat business practices of Wall Street, live in the most refined areas of New York, and assume privileges indistinguishable from other CEOs; the difference is that they so visibly care about those they never see or seek out).
Note well the term “poor.” These are not Dickensian or Joads poor, but largely Americans who by the standards of the 1940s would be considered lucky. Partly because of globalized Chinese consumer goods, and partly redistributive practices of a half-century, our current “underclass” has access to clothes, electronics, entertainment, apartments, cell phones, transportation, etc., undreamed of by the middle class of the recent past. I live in one of the poorest areas of one of the poorest counties in a bankrupt state; and those I see poor are not like those I saw 40 years ago in the same locale.
