Insanity Wrap #22: Tonight We're Gonna Party Like It's 1699

Insanity Wrap needs to know: Why does Joe Biden think black people are all alike?

Answer: Shut up, racist.

Before we get to the sordid details, a quick preview of today’s Wrap.

• LA Mayor Garcetti steals a page from Kim Jong-un’s psychotic playbook

• Nancy Pelosi melts down on PBS

• The very latest in home defense/lawn maintenance

And so much more.

Shall we begin?

Your Daily Dose of Mostly Peaceful Protest

This is what I mean when I say rioters “shut down” & take over Portland streets. In addition to what they’ve been doing in downtown for months, they also also use cars & stolen random property as barricades in other parts of city. #antifa pic.twitter.com/eCZptkpzNh

Remember, “mostly peaceful” really means “partly violent.”

Tonight We’re Gonna Party Like It’s 1699

Insanity Wrap Presents: Los Angeles, Pyongyang Style — (Courtesy of NASA.)

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti Says DWP Will Shut Off Water And Power At Homes That Throw Large Parties.

Progressives take the fun out of everything:

If the LAPD responds to repeated complaints and verifies that there have been violations at a home, the city will within 48 hours have the DWP shut off service at that home. Garcetti also indicated that county health inspectors and other city representatives would be on the lookout for violations.

The Mayor is now in charge of your houseguests… because freedom.

Meanwhile, in North Korea: How the Kim Regime Has Weaponized Electricity.

While Kim was safely ensconced in well-lit luxury, his countrymen were not so fortunate. Indeed, the Kim family’s 70-year reign of terror in North Korea has been abetted by its ability to starve its own people of electricity. A staggering 18.4 million North Koreans, some 70 percent of the country’s population, do not have access to electrical power. Indeed, by restricting electricity use, Kim has turned it into a weapon.

Insanity Wrap would never actually encourage some enterprising young hacker to figure out a way to cut off the power and water to the mayor’s official residence, but if some enterprising young hacker were to do such a thing, we wouldn’t be at all upset.

A Viral Dose of Sanity

This is good news, especially in light of all the panic-mongering over Florida and Arizona we were all subjected to in July.

The press is going to give the same amount of coverage to this good news out of Florida and Arizona, right?

Right?

(If Insanity Wrap were asking that with our tongue any deeper in our cheek we’d look startlingly like Louis Armstrong blowing a high-C#.)

It Is Unwise to Question Your Betters, Prole

Judy Woodruff, what were you thinking?

The PBS News Hour infotainment host had the temerity to present both sides of the argument over the stalled coronavirus relief bill during an interview with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Undead).

When we say “both sides,” we don’t mean the House Democratic leadership and the House Democrats. We mean the Democrat side and the Republican side.

Pelosi accused Woodruff of shilling for the GOP, according to Matt Vespa.

Woodruff responded by saying she was just playing devil’s advocates, noting that the GOP had offered to extend unemployment benefits, that they too have monies allocated for schools and food programs, and that money passed in the spring during the first string of coronavirus relief bills has yet to be spent.

“Well, if you want to be an advocate for them, Judy, let’s know what the facts are,” exploded Pelosi.

Our friend Michelle Ray wants to know, “Where’s the cup holder?”

That’s just one of many factory-installed options, including hand-stiched leather seating, an Apple CarPlay entertainment system, and fricken laser beams.

So This Is a Thing Joe Biden Said

That’s nothing. Remember what Biden thinks you think?

Here’s a little refresher from two weeks ago:

People don’t make a distinction, as you well know, from a South Korean and someone from Beijing. They make no distinction, it’s Asian.

In case there’s any remaining confusion: Biden can’t tell black people apart and doesn’t think you care about any differences between China, South Korea, and Vietnam.

Sounds to Insanity Wrap like Biden is the bigot accusing everyone else of bigotry.

Joe Biden couldn't get more than 140 people to watch his livestream even with Aubrey Plaza's help. Sad. pic.twitter.com/V5ZAuRMWwC

Not sad-sad.

Funny-sad.

Insanity Wrap is totally tickled that Biden couldn’t get more than 136 livestream viewers, even with the lovely and talented Aubrey Plaza hosting it.

It’s a good thing dead people all vote Democrat because that’s the level of voter enthusiasm Biden generates.
