It’s not the bullet with my name on it that worries me. It’s the one that says, “To whom it may concern.”

It’s historic in its way. From Willie Brown in the 1990s to 2024, Kamala’s career never advanced when a man pulled out. That, as of July 21, 2024, is no longer true. Biden pulled out and Kamala was advanced to the head of the Dems 2024 Presidential ticket. 😉
But hey! At least for a little while, Kamala could improve our relations with England. After all, her and Camilla have a lot in common and are living beacons of hope for all the side chicks out there. 😆
OK, to start with, I’m not going to derogatorily comment on the female’s apparent weight. One – with Type IIIA anti-ballistic armor at a minimum, her actual body build is quite in question. And two – a person’s shape, within reason, is not a good indicator of their physical performance and capabilities in non-endurance settings. And three and finally – she wasn’t part of President Trump’s immediate physical protection detail; hence, her lack of size and physical ability to be an ablative meatshield for him is largely irrelevant.
But, her displayed lack of competency, especially with her weapon and under stress, is a huge problem, and is strong evidence of her being a DEI hire and, like so many DEI hires, not being qualified for the job. Even more damning is the fact the the ex-Director of the Secret Service, Kimberly Cheatle – herself one of Biden’s many DEI hires – made increasing DEI in the Secret Service her priority, something that had already caused insane problems before the attempted assassination of President Trump.
And therein lies the problem, both with DEI itself and with the sorts who endorse it. It is the placing of certain governmentally protected, immutable, largely irrelevant physical, mental, or behavioral traits above being able to properly perform the duties of the position, much less being the best available one to do so. And this is true even when the job and its duties are important, up to and including saving lives.
Yeah, I was right. Last weekend was then end of Biden’s hopes for a second term. His “COVID diagnosis” was it for him, which is what I expected.
It’s OK, Joe. Just Just Need A Little Rest
It went exactly as I expected. Joe said a serious medical condition would cause him to bow out and within 24 hours of that statement being publicly released he “tested positive” for COVID-19 and had to isolate at his home in Delaware. And, within 48 hours of that he formally ended his campaign.
Uh huh. It is to laugh. The power brokers in the Democrat party – in true Senatorial fashion – stuck their knives in his hopes of reelection. That trip home to convalesce was a bit more permanent than was let on.
I’ve got to wonder though; did Joe, in pain and shock, say, “Et tu, Barak?” while Kamala’s hyena snicker echoed through the room?
