My latest in PJ Media:
At last calm and confidence have returned to our beleaguered republic: The Hill reported Wednesday that His Fraudulency President-select Joe Biden is doing a terrific job, as a comfortable margin of Americans have determined: “Six in 10 voters approve of the job Joe Biden is doing as president-elect, a new Hill-HarrisX poll finds. Sixty percent of registered voters in the Dec. 10-14 survey said they approve of Biden’s job as President-elect. By contrast, 40 percent of respondents disapprove.” The man isn’t even in office yet, but the proud, independent, adversarial press just can’t wait to go back to being obsequious sycophants for the Leftist in power.
After all, the poll itself is ridiculous on its face. 60% of Americans approve of the job that Biden is doing as president-elect? And what job is that? Holding a few press conferences, taking a few questions from bootlickers and ignoring tougher questions? Appointing some of the exponents of the multiply-failed establishment foreign policy, so that they can fail again and gather a few more plaudits from the self-congratulatory establishment media for doing so?
The President-elect is just waiting for time to pass, and preparing for his administration. No matter how smashing his appointments (Biden’s aren’t) and how Confucian his pronouncements (Biden’s aren’t, but there is a certain Chinese influence), he hasn’t been in office for even a single day yet, and has no achievements whatsoever on which he can be evaluated.
So what was The Hill trying to do by running this poll and trumpeting their man as the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful president-elect we’ve ever known in our lives? Whatever was going on in their conformist, statist little minds, the implications of the poll are obvious: Joe Biden will be hailed as the most magnificent of presidents no matter what he does. The same “journalists” who went after Trump like pit bulls at every conference, demanding he explain jokes and offhand remarks as if they were policy statements, account for assertions they considered false, and issue mea culpas for having destroyed America, will now fawn over Old Joe as if he were the second coming of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, John Fitzgerald Kennedy and Barack Hussein Obama rolled into one, only more so.
There is much more. Read the rest here.

You can be sure this 6 in 10 poll is a lie.
Jack Reynolds says
That is easy for you to say … given that they never tell the truth.
william carr says
Since I studies statistics at university I have mistrusted the ‘science’. They poll about 2000 people and extrapolate that to mean all people. No mention here of the scale of the poll either
william carr says
Typo ‘studied’ of course. Why cannot we have an edit facility here
mortimer says
Agree with W.Carr. I worked in market research in the past and know that even the questions can be phrased in such a way as to invite a desired answer and interviewers may introduce bias into the survey by choosing the response they like, rather than what the subject may say. In some cases, the person may not answer or walk away and an interviewer may just fill in whatever the interviewer likes .
We have seen how the pollsters favor Leftish candidates in most poll.
Polls are often designed to support a decision of management that has already been made. The other questions in the survey may have been totally unrelated to politics.
There are many ways to create a biased poll.
Roger Woodhouse says
Nobody could possibly take this ‘poll’ seriously anymore than they could take sleepy Joe seriously either.America has managed to become a laughing stock almost overnight with this farce of an election.Surely it must be overturned?
gravenimage says
Perfectly true, William. They should always at least mention the size of the poll.
Then there is methodology–even a large poll, if its methodology is skewed, will not be accurate. An example would be a poll of attitudes in California that was conducted exclusively in Berkeley.
Grace says
China Joe will never be accepted as the legitimate president of the United States nor will this rigged and compromised election.. If the supreme Court doesn’t stand up and do it’s duty there will be many more problems in the future. We all pray for the January surprise that has been touted by some of our leaders,whatever that will be. In the meantime I feel we are living in Lilliputia..

Walter Sieruk says
To have any type of confidence, trust or hope in corrupt politician ,Joe Biden , is to be naive. Very naive as well as unrealistic .
Next year with bogus president Biden sitting in the Oval Office of the White House. jihadists terror attacks will increase and continue. For president pretender Biden is evil ,incompetent , feeble -minded and treasonous . Imposter president Biden will be a disaster upon America.
revereridesagain says
And I for one intend to ram every attack down the throats of every moronic woke social justice warrior I hear virtue signaling their Bidet-Herass vote. Along with every other disaster that occurs as the result of those corrupt, incompetent, leftist hacks having been handed their offices.
Wellington says
I no longer have confidence whatsoever in the MSM (easy call), but I also have very little confidence in polls, because political correctness, combined with called ID (which allows so many more not to respond in the first place), combined with conservatives just keeping quiet because they are demonized, combined with the dumbing down of America overall, combined with Democrats being over-sampled, et al., has led me to be extremely dubious about the entire polling industry.
Westman says
Amen. Polls have become another propaganda tool. Ask the biased questions and then publish the biased result.
I fully expect the Biden-media honeymoon to be over shortly after Biden takes office and BLM, New Green Deal, Antifa, the Squad, and a myriad host of minority-far-left causes get ignored. Pelosi has already kept AOC off from an influential committte.
I’m betting the Portland riots or others will be in progress by July if not sooner. And those cannibals we call the media? They have been on red meat so long they won’t know how to muzzle themselves.
Poor Joe doesn’t really understand that he’s just the Trojan Horse and and both the “enemy” and his “soldiers” plan on burning the Horse.
James Sesame says
Biden will never get close to the WH. He will be in prison.
James Lincoln says
Westman says,
“Polls have become another propaganda tool.”
I was a little slow to pick up on this in the past, but polls were very likely used as a tool – by at least some pollsters – in the US 2020 presidential election.
How much it suppressed turnout for Pres. Trump would be very difficult to determine, but it definitely didn’t help the cause…
Infidel says
The point is that it’s the MSM that runs the polls, so if one doesn’t trust the MSM, the polls should automatically not be trusted either

Here is the winner.

………………..
Good grief…
Walter Sieruk says
To have as trust in future bogus president Biden is folly. For example , one of the evil promises that Joe Biden made is that if he becomes President he will then defund the police force.
This is evil and madness because if the police are defunded then there will be a drastic and sharp in many heinous crimes. As rapes and murders .Also the murder of the girls and women rapes victims .
If the police are defunded there will be more riots and arson. There will be more kidnappings and torture ofthe kidnapped victims and many of them will be then murdered to cover the hideous crimes There will also be break ins and lootings of homes and business along with many vicious violent assaults against innocent peaceful people.
Skyrocketing in crime will be one of the many evil outcomes with imposter president Biden in the White House.
Biden will be a curse upon the USA.
Roger Woodhouse says
A country can indeed live with a much reduced police force provided the vast majority of the population are all law abiding citizens who live with the understanding that they help one another and live according to Chriistian principals.I and my family find no need to ever have dealings with our police here in the UK.They might as well not exist but I realise that should the ocassion arise that I do require their services I would expect them to turn up .Unfortunately the above counts for nothing if a country is ‘occupied’ by lawless citizens.

Iraqi officials and the Iraqi military reported eight rockets hitting near the US embassy in Baghdad’s Green Zone on Sunday night as the anniversary of the assassination of the commander of IRGC’s Quds Force Qasem Soleimani draws close.
Sources say between 8 to 11 rockets were fired at the area, injuring one Iraqi security person manning a checkpoint and causing material damage to a usually empty residential complex and some cars.
According to one Iraqi source, three rockets were shot down by the embassy’s C-Ram defense system.
“The US Embassy confirms rockets targeting the International Zone (Green Zone) resulted in the engagement of embassy defensive systems,” the embassy said in a statement about the incident and reported minor damage to the embassy compound.
“We call on all Iraqi political and governmental leaders to take steps to prevent such attacks and hold accountable those responsible,” the statement added.
The US withdrew some staff from its embassy in Baghdad earlier this month, and temporarily reduced personnel ahead of the first anniversary of the killing of Qasem Soleimani near Baghdad airport on January 3 along with Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the leader of the Iran-backed militia Hashd al-Shaabi.
It was previously reported that the new head of Iran’s Quds Force in his recent visit to Iraq had asked the Quds Force proxies not to attack American targets until the transfer of power in the United States.
Several Iraqi groups have surprisingly condemned the attack, including the leader of the Iran-backed Sadr Movement, the populist cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, who said: “Bombing the embassy of evil (US) at this time is considered out of order.”
The Trump administration had repeatedly warned the Iraqi government that if it does not take stronger measures to stop these attacks, the US might shut down its embassy in Iraq.

This might be credible except for the fact that I don’t believe a damn word that comes out of the media but the media seems oblivious to the the fact that a lot of people feel the same way. I do understand that some fools voted against MAGA hoping to replace it with MASA. I practice social distancing from those people as I don’t want to get whatever they have.

In contrast, President-elect Donald Trump was on the phone making deals so that American companies wouldn’t leave the country. He was saving jobs while lame duck Obama was writing up more regulations to hamper Trump when he came into office.

Iran’s nuclear work goes forward at 2 covert sites – opposition
Nuclear work continued surreptitiously at two undisclosed nuclear weapons development sites operated by the Revolutionary Guards after Iran signed a nuclear accord (JCPOA) with six world powers in 2015. Both sites are operated by the Revolutionary Guards. The revelations came from the US office of National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), in a special briefing this week.
One of the two covert nuclear sites is located at Sorkh-e Hesar near Tehran, just north of the Khojir missile development facility. The second, called the Marivan Site, is situated near the town of Abadeh in Isfahan province.
The first site never interrupted its operations. Its structure remains intact under the same supervision as before by the Organization of Defensive Innovation and Research (SPND) and its director, IRGC Brig. Gen. Mohsen Fakhrizadeh Mahabadi, Alireza Jafarzadeh, deputy director of the NCRI US office ,explained. Indeed, it has expanded. As recently as 2017, the Chamran geophysics Group moved in to work on projects related to underground nuclear tests in tunnels while monitoring the impact of explosions.
The head of the Chamran group is named as Dr. Mohammad Javad Zaker, a lecturer at Beheshi university. His deputy is said to be Hamed Aber. The Sorkh-e Hesar’s location near the missile development center provides a military cloak and cover for movements around the clandestine nuclear project.
The second SPND site called the “Marivan Site,” is located near the town of Abadeh in Isfahan province and was first uncovered by the opposition group in 2017. It was built under the supervision of Ali Shamkhani, current Secretary General of the Supreme National Security Council. According to data based on the Nuclear Archive, a portion of which Israel seized in 2018, the Marivan Site was an important test site for large-sale high- explosive tests for the development of nuclear weapons.
“What we have found out is that this site and the area surrounding it is completely controlled by the IRGC. Locals are not allowed in the area,” said Jaffarzadeh.
The Atomic Energy Agency nuclear watchdog has raised concerns about “Marivan.” After its location was revealed, the watchdog demanded access to this and other locations suspected of nefarious nuclear and military activity.
Ayatoolahs lie lie we can not let Iran have Atom Bombs which already have 10.

Yes–it doesn’t look at though Iran ever stopped its nuke program.

This is the last chance to stop the phony liberal swamp from turning America upside down. The Supreme Court has to live up to its “Title”, Supreme. And do the right thing. Throw all those unconstitutional votes out and return the victory to President Donald Trump.
Pray always for the Country, the President, and our lives.

Scary (and sad) to think the majority of Americans and the rest of the Leftist-Marxist world have swallowed the usurpation of America. After 4 years of MSM’s denigrating Trump in the mainstream and brainwashing the masses into believing it, his contrived defeat is easily accepted by the morons eager to push the “like” button on Social Media, joining with their fellow (Super Mario Bros movie) goombas as they march towards oblivion. “Walk proud, Goomba!”
OLD GUY says
The Supreme Court refuses to look at the most important cases regarding the election of the President of the United States. The election laws of several states are violated and changed with out, being done by the state legislatures which is required by the Constitution of the United States. The big question is why is the Supreme Court not hearing these cases? It’s their job to protect and uphold the Constitution of the United States. If they allow the bite by bite destruction of our constitution we will all lose our freedom. The media is complacent in this through their lack of investigative reporting and their continued coverup and redirection of the news cycles. This petty report of Joe’s fine job as President elect is just part of their deception and steering of the news away from the important issues.

The president-elect does not have a job to do. This “poll” shows one of two things:
1. The American public is even more stupid than I thought.
2. The poll is a deliberate fraud, concocted so as to give the media a justification for heaping undeserved praise on Biden.
howie smith says
I’m a long time reader and fan of RS, however this blog has lost its focus. RS should stick to his knitting. His analyses of US politics reflect a super-myopic view. After all, when the only tool you have is a hammer, everything, but everything, looks like a nail. I, too, support limits of immigration from Muslim majority countries, but there are other issues which define a leader’s performance. In those other areas, the pussy-grabber in chief is woefully inadequate. And isn’t it a bit too soon to mock the President-elect? Doing so smacks of sour grapes.
gravenimage says
“howie smith” here is using not just similar but *exactly* the same phrasing that David Darman below has used here many times in slamming Robert Spencer.
If he wants to criticize Anti-Jihadists, fine–but is he now reduced to pretening that that he is more than one poster? Just sad…
Arnold David Darman says
Since when does expertise in matters relating to an ideology, e..g. islam support the notion that one has greater than average insight into the political landscape?
gravenimage says
David Darman–also posing as “howie smith” above–is here pretending that Biden has said nothing about Islam, but this is not so.
I have asked him before if he supports Biden saying that he will overturn the “Muslim ban” on day one, having Islam (no doubt a whitewashed version) taught in the schools, reinstating the fantasy nuclear deal with Iran, and forking large amounts of money to the “Palestinian” Jihadists, but he has not said why these are not issues that should concern Anti-Jihadists. I doubt he will say now, either.
Ugly Sid says
I’m sure everything will work out fine.
I eeven saw Obama and Biden together on the telly. Joe was pontificating with great clarity while Barry was looking at the floor and you could barely see his lips move. Then he took a sip from his water bottle and Joe took a flier on his own verbal acumen and blurred out “We’re gonna roll out the trumpaflusa whatchamacallit. You know, the thing.” At this, Barry’s mouth full of water came out his nose and he looked like he wet his pants. This made Joe laugh so hard he did wet his pants.
Overall, it was a fine performance and I’m sure America’s future couldn’t rest in finer hands.
