Monday's Final Word – HotAir

Closing the tabs …





Ed: Plenty of people panic over the mention of an Article V convention, but it’s no different than having Congress pass a constitutional amendment. Anything that comes out of such a convention still has be ratified by three-quarters of the state legislatures (38) before taking effect. About the only things that might make that cut would be a balanced budget amendment and term limits for Congress. If Elon Musk truly wants to impose fiscal discipline on DC, DeSantis is correct — that’s the only way to accomplish it.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu informs US President Donald Trump that he had nominated Trump for the peace prize while at dinner at the White House on Monday night.

“I wanted to express deep appreciation and admiration, not only of all Israelis, but of the Jewish people,” Netanyahu said. “The President has already realized great opportunities. He forged the Abraham Accords, he’s forging peace as we speak with one country and one region after the other. I want to present to you, Mr. President, a letter that I sent tot he Nobel prize committee. It’s nominating you for the peace prize.”

Ed: This will drive all the right people insane. Don’t expect the Nobel committee to recognize Trump as a peacemaker, though. They’re all about the true paths to peace like the Pulitzers are all about journalism as reporting truth.

Ed: I don’t know who this guy is, but I bet he gets the Nobel Peace Prize. Also, he deleted his account after this went viral. Check out the replies to find out more.

The House of Representatives’ Committee on Oversight and Government Reform recently requested testimony from officials who worked in the White House under former President Joe Biden. The hearing, scheduled for September, will explore the question of whether aides to President Biden were actively running the government while he was cognitively impaired. 

This is an important question but, in getting to the bottom of it, Republicans on the committee have an excellent opportunity to expose several other related scandals, all pointing to the way Democrats in the deep state/big tech revolving door collude together to manipulate American politics and undermine republican government. One piece of low-hanging fruit here is the role then-Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg likely played in the 2018 hit on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh—which is something one of the witnesses in the September hearing, former Biden Chief of Staff Jeff Zients can speak to. As I am unfortunately all too familiar with the details of the Kavanaugh hit, I recognize the players and the patterns of behavior. I believe there is sufficient evidence to show that Sandberg was deeply involved in the attack on Kavanaugh, to a degree underplayed and even covered up by the media.

Ed: Let’s just say that Comer has a target-rich environment. Read all of Mark Judge’s excellent essay.

Ed: Bob Vylan could not be reached for comment.

There’s a surprise – not. I am not saying that the advertising-agency manginas who came up with this campaign and the bureaucrats who signed off on it should be identified, hunted down in the streets and killed. I am not even saying that they should be brutally sodomised like the ten-year-old boy in the Theresienbad pool, whose attacker had his conviction overturned by the Austrian Supreme Court on the grounds that, being from Iraq, Amir could not be expected to know that the cute little moppet was not consenting to his anal rape. But I am saying that every self-respecting bikini-clad flame-tressed thunder-thighed Hausfrau should pursue these manginas down the sidewalk groping their arses every inch of the way until their poor put-upon posteriors have to be replaced by prosthetics from the same company that Somali pirate gets his from.

As you know, we pay close attention here to death statistics, ever since “cause unknown” became the leading cause of death in Alberta. I confess I am surprised that choking on the toxic smog of official lies is not now the leading cause of death in Germany.

Ed: Beege wrote about this earlier. I must confess that we all had some suggestions for Beege’s headline, but … she wisely followed her own counsel. Mark Steyn has his own inimitable take on it, so be sure to check it out.

Ed: Salena’s book, “Butler,” officially hits bookstands tomorrow. If you haven’t ordered it yet, be sure to get it soon.

Hamas, the State Department disclosed in a June 30 cable sent from the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem, has “formally placed bounties” on U.S. and Palestinian workers with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a joint U.S.-Israeli aid effort formed in February to replace the Hamas-friendly United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). The bounties imperil “Palestinian workers and the U.S. security contractors helping to protect the GHF distribution sites,” the cable reads.

The cable, marked “sensitive but unclassified,” confirms a Free Beacon report from June outlining Hamas’s plans to attack American aid distribution centers and pull the United States into direct conflict with Palestinian militant factions.

Ed: Did Hamas hear about how the US enters and then ends these conflicts? A few GBU-57s will end what’s left of Hamas’ subterranean infrastructure, not to mention Gaza’s urban superstructures. I suspect this is what we call “a bluff” in poker and politics. And if it’s not, well, get ready for Hamas’ second fatal error in two years, and kiss the Doha Billionaire Boys Club goodbye too.

Ed: What he said.

Democratic strategist and former Obama chief of staff Rahm Emanuel once stated that “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” That philosophy seemed to be the playbook for the media and pundits immediately after the flood in Texas as many rushed to claim that it was caused by Trump budget cuts to the National Weather Service (NWS). From George Stephanopoulos to Rosie O’Donnell, the hoax was spread that there was an understaffing at the NWS that may have caused these deaths. It did not matter that it was an easy matter to confirm or that the underlying claims of understaffing the NWS team were false.

The weaponization of such tragedies has become commonplace in American politics. Previously, Democrats like Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer bizarrely attempted to blame the crash of a Mexican ship in New York and air accidents around the world on Trump cuts.

There are legitimate reasons to question whether cuts to agencies like the NWS might impact key programs, such as weather warning systems. There are also questions about whether long-standing forecast modeling failed to capture the severity of this particularly storm. However, basic honesty and decency would demand a modicum of inquiry before blaming the NWS for a failure that caused mass deaths, including a large number of children.





Ed: Most Democrats lack that basic honesty and decency, it seems.

Ed: Scott gets the final Final Word tonight. He’s exactly right about this, and that’s why the two-party system works for America. We assemble factions within those two tents before elections; parliamentary systems assemble them after elections, which is why those systems are less stable. But I think DeSantis has an even better argument, which is that the debt and deficit issue transcends party and the states have to step in to deal with it.
