Top O' the Briefing
Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Lerzwypol was as surprised as anyone that his Liverwurst-Cheetos Bundt Delight was the talk of the Abe Vigoda Memorial Claymation Festival.
The bad people are gone. The Democratic National Convention may be over, but our "let's get through this together" Comrade Kamala DNC special goes on. You can help us keep humming along like a well-oiled, commie fighting machine when you join our VIP family. When you subscribe and use the promo code FIGHT, you'll get an enormous 60% discount. Sign up for VIP Gold (around $3 a month) this morning and you can join me and my friend and co-host Stephen Green for our legendary live chat, "Five O'Clock Somewhere." It's a like a conservative theme cruise without the motion sickness. Help us to help send Kamala Harris back to California for good!
Well, we made it through that. My colleagues and I form a kind of professional support group for one another whenever we liveblog a Dem festival of lies. An honest ad person would pitch this DNC with something like, "Now With 90% More Falsehood!" Beyond getting names correct during introductions, I'm not sure if any truths were uttered last night.
I'm going to air some familiar gripes about all of what went on because I want the intergalactic aliens who discover my body of work a thousand years from now to have a clear picture of just how awful the Democrats and their flying monkeys in the mainstream media were.
Yeah, I think goals are important.
The almost complete lack of fact-checking when the Democrats hemorrhage lie after lie is appalling. It always is but, as I wrote in my latest VIP column, the sheer volume of lies during the Kamala coronation is like nothing I've ever seen.
During the Republican National Convention, everyone but the lighting technicians were fact-checked by the Dem lapdogs in the MSM. If Donald Trump says that he had a cheeseburger for lunch, The New York Times and The Washington Post each dispatch a team of 10 reporters to verify his claim.
Last night, lies were repeated about Trump and Putin, Trump and J6, Trump and, well, everything. There was a very good chance that after each mention of Trump's name, a lie would follow.
When the voteless anointee Kamala Harris took the stage to formally accept her latest stroke of good fortune, she kept the lies going.
Because she's a dullard, Harris wasn't even able to come up with some new lies of her own. She just reflexively belched out one tired untruth after another. Imagine reading a low-info lib Facebook screed that's accompanied by narration and you'll have a sense of what Madame Veep's speech was like.
After a night filled with toxic mendacity, Harris looked at the camera, put on her practiced earnest face, and promised to be a president for all Americans. Especially once the reeducation camps are up and running.
OK, I made that last line up. It's one of those sarcastic things of mine that will probably come true though.
Oh, they couldn't shut up about their love of abortion last night, so Harris won't be a president for any Americans who happen to be in the womb while she's in office.
Harris's speech was a fact-challenged diatribe against Donald Trump that offered little in the way of policy vision beyond sucking up to the teachers' unions that fund the Democratic Party. And the relentless assault on the unborn, of course. She could have tweeted some bullet points and spared America the torturous sound of her nasally voice. It was a tweet that put her in this position, so we know that the Dems aren't afraid of conducting important business on X.
Honestly, I was dreading having to pay attention to an entire evening of the DNC for the liveblog. Now I'm glad I did. Even if the Harris-Walz (sounds like a paint store) ticket gets a convention bounce in the polls, I feel a little better about things than I have for the last couple of weeks. The MSM will obviously go all-in on selling the unifier fiction, but I'm not sure they'll find as many buyers after the way that they burned people with the same story about Joe Biden.
Have a great weekend, everyone.
