A funny thing happened at the New York Times on Independence Day. The “newspaper of record” is now so woke that it dispensed with its 99-year tradition of printing the Declaration of Independence on July 4 each year.
But the omission received so much pushback from readers and former employees that NYTimes management relented and published the document in full, but a day late. Guess what they blamed it on?
“Due to a human error, it wasn’t printed this July 4th,” said a spokesperson.
The entire publication today is one big, woke human error.
In other news, Kamala Harris is serious, y’all, really seriously serious and she’s serious about seriously taking her obligation to be serious seriously:
But seriously, she’s super duper serious. I’m being serious here.
Also on Tuesday, Old Joe Biden, our nominal president and national Sock Puppet, broke another record:
That’s seriously appropriate, since 1872 was his first year in the U.S. Senate, right? Seriously?
If you think the shelves at your local supermarket are, like, seriously under-stocked, take a look at what’s happening in the Netherlands right now:
The farmer protests are in opposition to climate alarmist policies of the EU and Netherlands governments. Unless energy sanity suddenly starts to make a comeback in Western governments, similar protests will be coming soon to a country, state and city near you.
I’m being seriously serious here.
Oh, but wait: The EU government actually did stumble into a serious bit of energy policy sanity on Tuesday:
This is a seriously huge development, in that it flies directly in the face of the goals of the ESG investment community that has been so successful in obstructing investment in nuclear and fossil fuel energy over the last 15 years. This new EU policy will now allow nuclear and natural gas projects greater access to capital as it removes penalties that have foolishly been imposed on lenders in the past.
This move also flies directly in the face of the direction of Biden’s Green New Deal policies, so it will be interesting to see if it ultimately has any follow-on impact in the United States. Seriously.
Speaking of seriously foolish energy policy, Preacher Pete Buttigieg, our seriously childish Transportation Secretary, joined Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm in un-serious guffawing about super-seriously high gasoline prices on national TV yesterday:
Presumably, Preacher Pete then left the building, put on his kiddie bike helmet, and rode it two blocks to show how serious he is about green energy before hopping into his gas-guzzling limo to ride back to the office.
Because, seriously, that is how he rolls.
And now, for some seriously awful Slidin’ Biden polling data…
Holy, holy serious moly. Seriously, 88%??? Just 10% are now willing to say the U.S. is on the right track? TEN? SERIOUSLY???
And mind you, this Monmouth poll seriously has a D+5 sample, which is probably about 8% too much.
Also from this Monmouth poll, check this out:
Ok, so, here are the issues the Democrats plan to run on in the general election this fall, and the ratings of voter concern they received in this poll:
Abortion on Demand: 5%
Gun Control: 3%
Student Loan Forgiveness: 2%
Climate Change: 1%
Packing the Supreme Court: Doesn’t even register.
Total Percentage: 11%
Meanwhile, here are the issues the Republicans plan to run on:
Inflation: 33%
Gas Prices: 15%
The Failing Economy: 9%
Bills/Groceries: 6%
Total Percentage: 63%
Any questions?
That is seriously all.
I love your take on our "deplorable situation". You have a great sense of humor, and it helps, because if I couldn't laugh, I certainly would be bawling my eyes out! Thanks, S
You forgot to mention that Ukraine and the J6 communist witch didn't make the list either. You're slipping Dave!, seriously! :D
