Just recently, ahead of the anniversary of Jan. 6, President Joe Biden gave a speech near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, to kick off his 2024 campaign. His theme was that the upcoming presidential election will determine whether or not America remains a democracy because a vote for Donald Trump is a vote to end democracy in America.
Politically speaking, the purpose of the speech was clear. Given that Biden has among the lowest favorability numbers ever recorded for a sitting president, he cannot make the election about his achievements.
Because he has none that warrant his reelection. In every way, he has made America a worse country.
He has terribly damaged the economy — increased an already unsustainable national debt; changed an energy-independent and energy-exporting country into an energy dependent and energy-importing one.
He hurt America and the world by withdrawing — and in the way he withdrew — American troops from Afghanistan. He showed that America cannot be counted on by those who depend on us. He abandoned $7 billion in weaponry, much of it now being used by Islamic terror groups. For example, as NBC News reported, “Most of the weapons recovered so far, officials say, are from Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) or Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), both Pakistan-based militant groups that the U.S. designates as terrorist organizations.” Other weapons have ended up in Gaza, and others in Iran.
He has hurt America and Israel by enriching the Iranian regime. According to the Wall Street Journal, “The Iranian surge in oil exports since President Biden took over has brought Iran an additional $32 billion to $35 billion, according to the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. … The cause of the Iranian windfall is clear: As part of Mr. Biden’s quiet diplomacy with Iran, the U.S. has curtailed sanctions enforcement. … Iran’s funding for Hamas ballooned in the past year to $350 million.” In addition, Biden paid Iran $6 billion to ransom five American hostages.
Why didn’t Russia invade Ukraine while Trump was president? Probably because Putin feared Trump. What foreign leader fears Biden? The only people who fear Biden are half of the American people.
He has done terrible damage to the most important freedom — freedom of speech. Among other things, his administration worked with Big Tech before and since the 2020 election to censor political speech.
He has created the first large set of political prisoners in American history — hundreds, soon perhaps thousands, of Americans sentenced to prison for merely entering the Capitol, or for just being present on the Capitol grounds, on Jan. 6.
He has weaponized the Department of Justice against his political opponents, and is overseeing the prosecution of an ex-president and political rival for the first time in American history.
From his first day in office, he has stoked racial tension in America. His inaugural address was the most hate-filled and divisive inaugural address in American history.
He has so demoralized the American military that recruitment levels are at their lowest ever.
He has promoted biological boys competing against girls in high school and college sports under the guise of “transgender rights.”
Therefore, his one route to victory is to convince Americans that Trump presents an existential threat to every core American value — democracy, freedom, and the Constitution. This is purely Orwellian. It is the Democratic Party and the rest of the Left that threatens democracy, freedom, and the Constitution.
Some excerpts from his speech:
“Today, we gather in a new year, some 246 years later, just one day before Jan. 6, a day forever shared in our memory because it was on that day that we nearly lost America — lost it all.”
What happened on Jan. 6 was shameful, foolish, and when violent (which it overwhelmingly was not), criminal. But to say “on that day we nearly lost America — lost it all” is a lie.
“Trump’s claims about the 2020 election never could stand up in court. Trump lost 60 court cases — 60.”
The statement is false because no Trump claim about the 2020 election results was ever allowed to be heard on the merits in an American courtroom.
“And since that day, more than 1,200 people have been charged for their assault on the Capitol. Nearly 900 of them have been convicted or pled guilty. Collectively, to date, they have been sentenced to more than 840 years in prison.”
The vast majority of those imprisoned people engaged in no violence and did nothing more wrong than trespass.
“So, hear me clearly. I’ll say what Donald Trump won’t. Political violence is never, ever acceptable in the United States political system — never, never, never. It has no place in a democracy. None.”
That is another lie. 2020 saw a staggering amount of left-wing violence, and apparently it did have “a place in a democracy.”
“He’s threatened the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff with the death penalty.”
What Trump said was that the meeting of Gen. Mark A. Milley, the just-retired chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, with the Chinese government after the Capitol protests, was “an act so egregious that, in times gone by, the punishment would have been death.”
That was an observation about the serious nature of Milley’s violation of diplomatic norms, not a threat to sentence Milley to death.
“This coming from a president who, when he visited a cemetery, called dead soldiers ‘suckers’ and ‘losers.’ Remember that?”
Even Snopes and The Washington Post concluded that there is no evidence for Trump having said that about the soldiers who died at Normandy Beach. Even John Bolton, who wrote a scathing attack on Trump after leaving office, defended Trump against this claim made by an anonymous source cited by The Atlantic. Yet Biden declares it as a fact.
“America, as we begin this election year, we must be clear: Democracy is on the ballot. Your freedom is on the ballot.”
If democracy and freedom are on the ballot, it is because the Left, of which the Democratic Party is its political arm, threatens democracy and freedom.
But Joe Biden knows that he has the entire mainstream media and all the giant social media companies except for X, formerly Twitter, on his side. So, he can hide his record and stoke hatred for Trump and his supporters from now until November. And get away with it.
Ugly Sid says
The effects of the decisions implemented under JRB are indistinguishable from sabotage.
And Joes real shield is not his reprehensible, impossibly unsuitable, running mate, but the coalition of permanent, professional incumbents and the cadre of bureaucrats who view government as a giant proprietary mammary access to which justifies every betrayal of personal integrity requested.
Donald Trump is Serpico. They hate him because they fear him.
And they’re right.
roberta says
”The only people who fear Biden are half of the American people.” Worth repeating.
Anne-Marie says
Anybody who has bothered to research the facts (and not just believe the garbage that CNN and MSNBC spew out) would be crazy to vote for JB and his horde of deranged lunatics. The feverish persecution of Trump alone should tell Americans everything about the Dems’ agenda…
World@70 says
Remember, lying to Joe Biden is like breathing, lies have no ill effect on someone without integrity and a conscience.
Tory says
Yes, but you have no idea how many are so clinically deranged by Trump that they chose to elder abuse a known dementia victim, and legendarily infamous pathological liar and plagiarist, and will do it again.
Mo de Profit says
Biden is a lifelong government lackey who is now a multimillionaire, so is Obama, coincidence? How do government employees make millions? Corruption.
Bali Marko says
HUNDRED$ of Million$
David Ray says
Chickenshit Biden’s been a retarded low-life his entire life.
The Hunter rotten apple didn’t fall far from the tree, and the whiney voiced prick is just as lecherous as Sniffy.
It’s no wonder, B. Hussein & company rolled their eyes every time Sleazy Joe opened his mouth.
Kasandra says
You would never hear this from our sterling “news media” but Biden was held back in third grade. His wisdom was recognized even then.
World@70 says
Biden’s achievements? Well, if you don’t use the descriptive preface, positive, there are plenty.
Biden is notable for claiming positive achievements frequently, and having them disproven in short order. As Biden sees it, things are better for himself and family, so, everyone else must be doing just splendid.
Onzeur Trante says
Biden will go down in history — if we get that far — as the senile doddering fool of a president who succeeded in taking the once greatest country on the planet down in just a matter of years. An astonishing achievement.
Lightbringer says
Obama got that decline off to a pretty impressive start, Trump began to reverse it, and Biden (Obama’s third term, or more likely Valerie Jarrett’s) has undone nearly everything Trump accomplished in his one term, during which Trump was surrounded by tiny mosquitoes called Democrats, trying to keep him from doing the splendid job he did do.
Kasandra says
The complete inversion of reality by Biden, his administration, and our media is Orwellian. I keep hearing how Trump is a “threat to democracy” from them. He’s not the one who, on his inauguration day, issued executive orders that had the effect of waiving federal statutes (something he has no power to do). He’s not the one who is defying a decision of the Supreme Court that he has no authority to cancel student debt. He’s not the one who has publicly sicced his Department of Justice on his political opponents and interfered with prosecution of his political allies. He’s not the one who disparages his political opponents as “semi-fascists,” and “enemies of democracy.” He’s not the one who disparages opponents of his bid for a federal takeover of state election laws in ways that would eliminate any possibility of election integrity as the heirs of Democrat “Bull” Connor. What did Trump do as President that is in any way comparable? In addition to his myriad policy disasters, Biden is a divisive, corrupt, serially dishonest, lifetime pol, now with dementia. If the media weren’t entirely garbage, he wouldn’t be able to be elected dog catcher. Even with their support he’s at a 33% approval rating today. We are living in what Victor Davis Hanson has called an “empire of lies” and still there are millions of people who just don’t get it.
Semaphore says
Look, folks, we’re a ruled people, let’s face it. We had no say in most of the rules and regulations that govern our lives. President Biden is just the most recent evidence of this. The fact that it’s up to an alternative publication like Frontpage to point this out when no corporate media giants touched it says it all. My suggestion? Plan accordingly.
garry pollack says
The Deep State players remind me of James Cagney in White Heat (1049) except instead of a gas explosion they R planning a nuclear one.. The more people they take w/them when they go—the more points they get w/Satan…
Luz Maria Rodriguez says
Projection, plain and simple.
So typical of them.
Kevin says
In just 3 years Biden and his Democrat allies have maybe moved America to a police state and a dictatorship. Biden is the most corrupt, perverted, and outright evil person ever to rise to a leadership since Nero.
Lightbringer says
Nero was a far more talented musician. And that’s assuming that he had very little talent in that area.
Angelen VanDaele says
This speech was and is disturbing for a multitude of reasons.. Maybe I missed something, but …
1.) How did he give a speech in Valley Forge on Friday and then fly back from St Croix on Sunday?
2.) This was the most Cogent anti-Trump speech I have ever heard from Biden (President Roomba). How did he stay on message for that long a period of time?
3.) He delivered it PERFECTLY! Since when did Biden ever get any speech perfectly?
All this, plus the way Dr. Jill escorted him off the stage with just a few heads in the foreground leads me to the conclusion the entire sp0eech was AI.
You may think I am paranoid but as a graphic designer who uses all Adobe products, I just discovered the only Adobe Stock Images that come up as I search are all AI now. I have to intentionally check No AI to get real images by real photographers.
Am I crazy or did anyone else notice Biden’s speech was a fraud perpetrated against the citizenry of the United States?
Jojo says
That’s because Biden is just Obama’s conduit, and Obama, as everyone in the Middle East knows, is Muslim Brotherhood. This is what the MB looks like when a gay Communist activist takes the American presidency.
Bali Marko says
USA = REPUBLIC, Not a Democracy
jd says
Most of the alleged J6 violence was a reaction to extreme violence by Capitol Police, who, in a surprise maneuver, opened fire on the peaceful crowd (rubber bullets, flash-bang grenades and more), pushed people off two-story ledges, repeatedly pushed an elderly woman down a flight of stairs, and attempted to kill (and also killed) unarmed, non-violent protesters. All the video clips the media aired of purported violence by protesters usually involved people trying to stop the police assault on the crowd and their attempted murder of individuals, several of them women. The entire riot was provoked and planned by Democrat provocateurs.
