Bill O’Reilly predicts Biden will drop out of presidential race ‘sometime soon’

Published

From LifeSiteNews

Former Fox News star Bill O’Reilly predicted President Joe Biden will soon drop out of the race after a disastrous debate performance. Biden’s aides and liberal news outlets have also suggested the president should stop his re-election bid.

President Joe Biden will soon drop out of the 2024 presidential race, longtime conservative commentator Bill O’Reilly suggested recently.

“Expect this. Sometime soon, President Biden will step aside as President Johnson did in 1968. Vietnam got him. But first, the K Street Democrats in D.C. have to quietly float replacement names with the top liberal media moguls,” O’Reilly said on his website Monday. “Something as monumental as this is not done spontaneously. The liberal media and Hollywood money people will have input.”

“What is absolutely certain is that Joe Biden is finished as a powerful man,” O’Reilly added. “Shortly, he will have to go quietly into the night, pretty much dragging Jill Biden with him.”

O’Reilly, who was host for more than two decades of the popular The O’Reilly Factor on Fox News and now comments at his own website and for NewsNation, made the prediction following an underwhelming performance by Biden at last week’s debate against Donald Trump.

His prediction mirrors the desire and speculation of prominent liberal voices and outlets, including The New York Times editorial board, which urged Biden to drop out just one day after the presidential debate.

The board wrote:

He struggled to explain what he would accomplish in a second term. He struggled to respond to Mr. Trump’s provocations. He struggled to hold Mr. Trump accountable for his lies, his failures and his chilling plans. More than once, he struggled to make it to the end of a sentence.

Biden is currently engaged in a “reckless gamble,” according to the Times, because if he continues down this path, Trump will likely win.

“There are Democratic leaders better equipped to present clear, compelling and energetic alternatives to a second Trump presidency,” the editorial board argued. “There is no reason for the party to risk the stability and security of the country by forcing voters to choose between Mr. Trump’s deficiencies and those of Mr. Biden.”

“It’s too big a bet to simply hope Americans will overlook or discount Mr. Biden’s age and infirmity that they see with their own eyes,” according to the liberal newspaper.

After reiterating how much it despises Trump, the editorial pleaded with Democratic strategists to convince Biden to drop out of the race.

“Democrats who have deferred to Mr. Biden must now find the courage to speak plain truths to the party’s leader,” the editorial board wrote. “The confidants and aides who have encouraged the president’s candidacy and who sheltered him from unscripted appearances in public should recognize the damage to Mr. Biden’s standing and the unlikelihood that he can repair it.”

Biden has also lost the support of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Georgia is considered a swing state in the 2024 presidential election. “The 81-year-old president has shown a greater capacity to tell the truth than his opponent, former President Donald Trump,” the editorial board wrote on Saturday, June 29. “But the unfortunate truth is that Biden should withdraw from the race, for the good of the nation he has served so admirably for half a century.”

Some Democratic activists and aides have expressed concern about Biden in recent days.

“They’ve just been trying to skate to the general election with as minimal exposure as possible to the public. And now it’s blown up on them,” former Democratic National Committee delegate Thomas Kennedy told The Intercept. The news outlet reported that chances are low Biden will drop out of the race.

But concerns remain.

“Biden is toast,” one Democratic activist told Politico after the debate.

“In text messages with POLITICO, Democrats expressed confusion and concern as they watched the first minutes of the event,” the news outlet reported. “One former Biden White House and campaign aide called it ‘terrible,’ adding that they have had to ask themselves over and over: ‘What did he just say? This is crazy.’”

Some family members are blaming Biden aides for the president’s poor performance, according to a Sunday article in Politico. “First lady Jill Biden and his son Hunter Biden were the loudest voices urging the president to stay in the 2024 contest,” the outlet reported, based on unnamed sources.

Biden’s “cognitive health” remains an issue for many voters.

“For months before the first debate, the nation’s voters repeatedly expressed doubts over whether President Biden had the cognitive health enough to serve,” CBS News reported today. “Today, those doubts have grown even more: now at nearly three-quarters of the electorate, and now including many within his own party.”

Among registered voters, only 27 percent think Biden has the “mental & cognitive health to serve as president.” About 50% of registered voters, or twice as many, say Trump does.

The post-debate poll found in general, registered voters trusted Trump more. For example, 18 percent said Biden “inspired confidence,” while 44 percent said Trump did. Similarly, 21 percent said Biden “presented ideas clearly,” while 47 percent said Trump did.

The differences were not as large when it came to the question of a candidate’s ability to explain “plans & policies,” with 35 percent of respondents saying Biden did and 43 percent saying Trump did.

Among Democratic registered voters, 55 percent said he should continue running, while 45 percent said he should not.

The Democratic National Convention is scheduled for August 19 through the 22nd.

Trudeau doesn’t have a border security plan to avoid Trump’s tariff

Published on

By David Krayden 

And Poilievre needs to nail the Liberals to the wall over it

If there is anything funny – and I mean funny strange here – about the current tariff dispute between the Trudeau government and President Donald Trump it is the repetition by all interested parties in Canada to continue to give the Liberals a pass for their “border security plan.” To begin with, I say the fight is between Justin Trudeau and Trump and not Canada and the US because this is a highly personal matter between the two men. Trudeau could have ended this dispute on the night he invited himself to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago lair and did the embarrassing photo op with the president-elect.

It was obviously a fruitless night of conversation and not negotiation because Trudeau did not come back to Canada with any commitment to satisfy Trump’s demand that Canada do something about its porous border that simultaneously allows illegals to cross into Canada from the US and provides easy access for illegals – a significant number of which are terrorists – to enter the United States. Trump announced that a 25% tariff against all Canadian goods will proceed by Feb. 1.

Instead, Trudeau cooked up a scheme that he must have thought would either satisfy or fool Trump and included an “investment” of $1.3 billion in the long overdue Fall Economic Statement that was literally printed and delivered into the hands of the media and MPs just days before autumn turned into winter. Even though most of the mainstream media reported that this funding would be spread out over SIX years, nobody really read the fine print of the document that indicated most of the money would be spent in the fourth, fifth and sixth year of the program and very little in the first two years when of course it would be most required to demonstrate some degree of good faith to the Trump administration in order to avoid the promised 25% tariff that was promised if good faith was not delivered along with literal and tangible border security measures.

Looking at the ridiculous allocation of taxpayer dollars it is clear that this is a facade or a bad joke.

“Securing Our Borders” is a line item under section 3.1 that deals with “Safer, Healthier Communities.” None of the items described herein, with the exception of the border security line, have anything to do with safer or healthier communities and everything to do with more of Trudeau’s identity politics and woke policies.

WATCH Justin Trudeau’s Woke Border Plan Will Cost YOU

Trudeau clearly wants a trade war and to frame the coming federal election as a battle between us and them, or more precisely, Canada, as represented by the Liberal Party, and the US as led by Trump. That’s the only way he, his successor and the Liberals can hope to defeat the Conservatives. That has been the plan long before Trump even started talking about his dissatisfaction with Canada’s borders. That’s why Team Trudeau has done virtually nothing on border security, except for having the RCMP buy Chinese drones in December (they are now saying they are buying American drones, since the USA is passing a bill to outlaw Chinese drones due to the security risk).

Do the Trudeau Liberals think Donald Trump and his staff cannot read the publicly available fall economic statement with all the woke line items and the massive discrepancy between Liberal talking points and what is in this “border security plan”?

The so-called border security plan cannot even get off the ground because Trudeau suspended Canadian Parliament at the same time as his so-called resignation, so the $1.3 billion spending cannot even be approved to start with. Plus, the spending is projected for 5 years into the future. In 2025 to 2026 the Liberal planned gun grab is receiving 5 times more spending than border security. And as experts continue to say, there are no more boots on the ground within this yet to be approved Trudeau’s border security plan.

The focus, instead, for the Trudeau Liberals and Ontario Premier Doug Ford has been talking about shutting off energy to the US. And why has Canada’ prime minister continued to taunt and belittle Trump?

“Trump has announced that he wants a golden age for the American economy. The federal government has continued to say, clearly, as I will, that everything is on the table if he does move forward on tariffs on Canada, as he has said, whether it be back on January 20 or on Feb. 1 or Feb. 15 is a Valentine’s Day present, or on Apr. 1, or whenever he says he’s going to do it, as he keeps repeating, two things will happen,” Trudeau told reporters during a recent retreat.

Trudeau then talked about Canada having “a strong, robust response, because we don’t want this, but we will respond if necessary. And two, prices for American consumers on just about everything will go up, and we don’t think he wants that.” Trudeau then revealed his contempt for Trump saying the president “has talked about the border as being a great preoccupation for him.” The angrier that Trudeau makes Trump, the more Trump helps the Liberals by becoming the very embodiment of the American bogeyman that leftist Canadians have always loved to hate. The Official Opposition must respond and lead Canada into the next election. They need to form a legitimate government that can truly promote Canadian interests.

Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has been put into the uncomfortable position of defending Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and her insistence that the federal government does not control provincial natural resources while advocating for retaliatory tariffs. Trudeau has demonized Smith and accused her of putting her interests and those of Alberta of Canada. He has suggested that both she and Poilievre are working for Trump and not Canada. Concomitant with this lie, Trudeau has also co-opted Ontario Premier Doug Ford for his Liberal team. Ford has shamelessly repeated Liberal talking points that he has embraced. Ford, of course, is a faux conservative who has supported all of the Trudeau government’s darkest policies.

  • Poilievre cannot allow himself to be co-opted or become another spokesman for Team Trudeau. He must present himself as not only the prime minister in waiting but the only federal leader who can effectively negotiate with Trump on behalf of Canada. This is fundamental to Conservative fortunes in the next election. The Liberals will stop at nothing to try to resuscitate their dying party and toxic brand. All leadership candidates are suggesting they represent a new beginning while front-runner Mark Carney has the unmitigated gall to suggest he is an “outsider.”

Poilievre has seized the moment and began to offer some substantive policy ideas. He told CTV News that “he would retaliate” to any Trump tariff and “would target products and services that A, we don’t need, B, we can make ourselves and C, that we can buy elsewhere, so that we maximize impact on the Americans while minimizing impact on Canadians.”

Then he outlined how he would transform the Canadian economy so that it could work in sync with Trump’s fiscal policies. He talked about a “tax cut on work, investment making stuff in Canada, energy, home building so that we can stimulate more economic growth here. Three, we need to become more self-sufficient. That means knocking down barriers. More interprovincial free trade. We have freer trade with the Americans today than we do with ourselves. We have to knock down those barriers, build pipelines, LNG, liquefaction facilities, to sell our stuff to the world without having to go through the Americans.”

Yes. This is common sense, conservative politics that will help Canada to prosper within a world dominated by Trump’s America. But Poilievre also needs to acknowledge that Trudeau and the Liberals and Canada continue to fail on the border. The necessary work has not been done and Trump knows it. He needs to tell Trump that the age of Trudeau is over and it will not be extended by a replacement Liberal leader. If Trudeau will not apologize for his arrogance and rudeness then Poilievre should apologize on his behalf. The Trudeau government is deeply corrupt and thoroughly mendacious.

Poilievre needs to continue to hit back with the necessary ferocity and determination to win.

Dr. Phil Joins Tom Homan and ICE For Midnight Arrests Of Illegal Alien Criminals

Published on

 

From the Daily Caller News Foundation

By Thomas English

Show host Dr. Phil joined border czar Tom Homan and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in a raid across the Chicago metropolitan area late Sunday night.

The television psychologist, whose full name is Phil McGraw, was filmed interrogating an alleged illegal Thai national alongside Homan and a posse of ICE officers during the Chicago operation. The video comes after President Donald Trump declared a national emergency at the southern border and ordered agencies to ramp up immigration enforcement, with ICE announcing 956 arrests on Sunday alone.

“This is an example of sanctuary cities, right?” Homan said. “We’ve got an illegal alien convicted of sex crimes involving children, and he’s walking the streets of Chicago … this is what we’re dealing with.”

“You’ve been charged with sex crimes with children?” Dr. Phil asked the alleged illegal alien.

“Not really,” the alleged illegal alien said.

“Not really?” Dr. Phil said. “And never been deported. Huh.”

“Let’s take him in and process him, lock him up,” Homan told nearby agents.

Dr. Phil said in an X post Sunday that he would be embedded in the Chicago operation, which aimed to target 270 “high-value targets” around Chicago.

“It’s a pretty high-risk mission we’re going on,” he said. “This truly is a targeted ICE mission, because they’re not sweeping neighborhoods like people are trying to imply.”

 

“These are known criminals and terrorists. We’re talking about murderers, child traffickers, child rapists. We’re talking about bad actors, both in the countries they’ve come from, and since they’ve been here in the United States,” the daytime television personality continued.

Dr. Phil — who spoke at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally in October — has previously  signaled conflicted feelings about the president. He seemed to walk back his endorsement of Trump in an ambiguous interview with Piers Morgan in November, saying he “doesn’t like a lot of what he says or does.”

ICE has announced over 2,000 immigration-related arrests throughout Trump’s first week in office. Colombian President Gustavo Petro initially refused to accept U.S. deportation flights into his country over the weekend, but immediately capitulated after Trump threatened steep tariffs against the country.
