Victor Davis Hanson: The Last Laugh

We seldom see Victor Davis Hanson cracking up. He’s a very sober pundit–right?

But here he’s as merry as a milkmaid–because SloJo Biden’s leaving office in a very few days… and because he’s babbling about “threats to America” and it’s all crapola.

What threats are these, Joe?

Oh… Climate Change. The U.S. Supreme Court. Money in politics. And, of course, “oligarchs” using their vast wealth to subjugate the country–this from the gavone who awarded George Soros (!) a Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Does Biden take hypocrisy pills? I mean, he’s so far out there in fantasy-land, he”s got Victor Hanson giggling like a schoolgirl–can’t hold it back!

Is there any Far Left oligarch, or communist strong man, from whom SloJo’s campaign did not accept rich financial contributions? And his son Hunter is a bigger crook than he is!

You can’t help wondering: how creatures like Biden get elected to high public office. Is it all cheating, or are tens of millions of voters truly that masochistic? Have we become so inured to hypocrisy in politics that we don’t even notice it anymore?

Clinton, Obama, Biden… I do hate to think we deserved them.

Do They Really Think We’re Buying This?

Self-alleged president Joe Biden is in hot water with the U.S. Catholic bishops for his enthusiastic support for abortion. He wants it both ways: he wants to parade his Catholicism, but at the same time, promote abortion–which, of course, is flagrantly opposed to church teaching.

So he gets a visit at the White House from the outgoing president of Israel, who was accompanied by an aide–an ultra-Orthodox woman who’s had 12 children.

And Biden takes a knee! Like, wow, twelve children! Boy, do I ever respect her! Just look how much I respect her!

Oh, please. You could cut the hypocrisy with a machete. In fact, you’d need a machete. It’s that thick.

Are the U.S. bishops going to fall for this?

Only if they want to fall for it! It’d save them some trouble with the Vatican, and the Red Pope–who want to keep on giving communion to “Catholic” politicians who support and promote abortion. Of whom Biden is the chief.

God help us.
