Barack Obama

As we indicated earlier, the unofficial theme of Night 2 of the 2024 Democratic National Convention was the transfer of the mantle of Hope and Change on to Kamala Harris, with the Obamas personally conducting the transfer. Night 2’s subtheme is the manner in which the Regime Media fell over themselves in pining for that Obama Restoration.

The erasure of Joe Biden from the national political scene continues apace. Day 2 of the 2024 Democratic National Convention will be remembered for the Regime Media’s collective pining for their favorite president. Case in point, CNN’s John King.

The Democratic National Convention is in full swing and, unfortunately, so is the Regime Media. The Regime sycophants at MSNBC, consumed by their collective desire to imprint the Harris candidacy into the American psyche, have now proclaimed Harris to be “the future”. 

Several themes emerge from the early coverage of the 2024 Democratic convention. The first is the reinforcement of the manufactured “joyful” mood of the party now that Joe Biden has been successfully deep-sixed. The second, most notably on display tonight, are the “tears” that this deep-sixing trigger.

The Democratic Convention begins tomorrow in Chicago, and there should be absolutely no suspense over how the media will treat Kamala Harris, Tim Walz and the party’s other stars. The MRC’s archives, going back to 1988, show that Democrats always get a huge tailwind of good press coming out of their party conventions.

Morning Joe hypes a clip of a staged phone call in which Barack and Michelle Obama call Kamala Harris to endorse her. Jonathan Lemire dismisses as "nonsensical" reports that the Obamas lacked confidence in Harris.

When Donald Trump takes the stage Thursday night and accepts for the third time the Republican Party’s nomination for president, he faces an opportunity and a temptation. The temptation is to launch a full-bore attack on Democrats, President Biden, the left and the media. The opportunity is to use the sympathy he has garnered since last Saturday’s assassination attempt to pursue a loftier goal…

While delegates were being counted on Monday during the Republican National Convention, MSNBC sent Jacob Soboroff to the floor to interview Donald Trump Jr. about what his father’s second term would look during Katy Tur Reports. The pair battled over whether Trump was “divisive” before Trump Jr. ultimately told Soboroff to “get out of here” as he spread some fake news over immigration…

On Morning Joe, MSNBC reporter Ali Vitali twice uses the d-word, for "despair," to describe the mood of congressional Democrats over the dilemma as to whether Biden should remain the nominee or step aside.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough says that Dems are saying that behind the scenes, Barack Obama is orchestrating the movement to push Biden out of the race. Willie Geist cites a Politico column saying that George Clooney gave Obama a heads-up on his NY Times op-ed calling on Biden to get out, and that Obama didn't object. Mika Brzezinski suggests that Obama actually put Clooney up to writing…

All you need to know about James Stavridis' reliability as an objective source is the two statements he made on today's Morning Joe regarding a video Bibi Netanyahu put out calling on the US to stop holding up arms deliveries to Israel. First, Mika tees him up to attack Bibi, asking, "Is Benjamin Netanyahu a good partner in this?" Stavridis answers: "Clearly he's not." And then in the same…

Morning Joe gets defensive about videos showing Biden being dazed and confused. They call them deepfakes, although they accurately depict a doddering Biden. They focus on the video of Biden wandering away from a G7 group, but ignore the one of Obama having to guide Biden off stage.

On Tuesday, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel made a campaign ad for the Biden Campaign disguised as an interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. On Thursday, he made it official as he announced that he is the latest night host that will be hosting a fundraiser for the campaign.

How far would a liberal network go to protect their favorite candidate? Sixteen years ago, CNN deliberately censored a blunder by likely Democratic nominee Barack Obama, when in a Memorial Day speech before veterans, he stupidly said of America’s “fallen heroes” that “I see many of them in the audience here today.”
