Joe Biden returns from vacation, starts work on Hurricane Helene relief

Now that it's midweek, Joe Biden is back from his weekly suntanning vacation in Delaware. He's just in time to help get the Hurricane Helene relief effort started. Thankfully, our next president, Donald Trump, raised $1.7 million for hurricane relief over the weekend, then showed up in Valdosta, GA, complete with badly needed supplies. During his visit, Trump announced that Elon Musk would help with getting communications restarted by sending Starlink units into the storm-ravaged parts of the southeast.

Meanwhile, Kamala Harris took time out of her campaign fundraising schedule to visit Atlanta while providing Atlanta with an update on federal disaster relief operations.

To prove he's still alive and still semi-relevant, Joe Biden pledged 1,000 active duty troops, will be sent to North Carolina to support disaster relief efforts in the wake of the deadly Hurricane Helene.

By then, Samaritans' Purse and other charities will be working their magic restoring the region.

It shouldn't take a week for the president and VP to get to the region. Further, the VP shouldn't tell people they can apply online for assistance for their various needs. While she sadi that people who had electricity could apply online, VP Harris mentioned in this video that 60+ percent of the city is without power:

Samaritan's Purse and the Red Cross are typically the first people on the ground. Still, it's inexcusable for the administration to take a week to get to the storm-ravaged region. Further, it's terriible that the president is pictured getting a suntan on both days of the weekend while victims are dealing with death and destruction. Add to that the fact that VP Harris was raising money for her campign in California.

The optics are that this administration isn't that interested in doing the work that adminmistrations typicially do. People in the Southeast want to know that you care. In that respect, the Biden administration failed like Gov. Tim Walz failed in Tuesday's debate. It's time to put a real administration in power. This administration has failed.

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

What is Kamala Harris afraid of?

Apparently, Kamala Harris suddenly loves debating. Let me rephrase that. Harris loves debating as long as the moderators are partisan hacks. She wants nothing to do with a debate moderated by Fox's Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum. She's afraid of Bret and Martha because a) they'll either fact-check both her and Trump or they won't fact-check either of them and b) Bret and Martha aren't afraid of asking follow-up questions. To a candidate whose answers are scripted and who isn't quick on her feet, the last thing you want is a follow-up question. Kamala fears follow-up questions like vampires hate wooden stakes, sunlight and holy water. Why has Kamala Harris avoided Fox News like the plague? The moderators/propagandists fact-checked Donald Trump aggressively but didn't fact-check Harris . Why didn't David Muir and Linsey Davis fact-check both candidates equally? Is it because Harris doesn't like fair fights? Perhaps she's just afraid of getting exp

Blistering Barack's butt (bigtime)

This past weekend, Barack Obama tried spreading the blame around for Hamas's murderous rampage of Oct. 7. This blistering op-ed hints that Mr. Obama isn't the effective communicator that he once was. Obama initially insisted that "nobody's hands are clean" from the Oct. 7 Massacre. Liel Leibovitz, the Editor at large of Tablet Magazine wrote this op-ed questioning Obama's intellectual honesty. After Obama said that nobody's hands are clean, Mr. Liebovitz wrote wrote "Nah, man. Not all of us are complicit. It's just you. It's you, because you're the one who gave that stentorian speech about red lines in Syria and then sat by and did nothing as those red lines were crossed and Assad continued to slaughter his own people, allowing the Iranians and the Russians to creep in and fill the vacuum left by your devastating lack of leadership." In short, Mr. Liebovitz isn't buying what Mr. Obama is peddling. Let's question Mr. Obama a
