AND RUSSIA INVADED UKRAINE ON WHOSE WATCH? Trump Is a ‘De Facto Russian Asset’ Says Former FBI Deputy Director.
Come to think of it, Trump is the only president we’ve had during this century who was not in office when Russia invaded a neighbor. Bush was around for the invasion of Georgia, Obama for the smaller-scale Ukraine invasion of 2014, and Biden for the full-scale invasion in 2022.
Some asset, eh?

NEWS YOU CAN USE: ‘Don’t eat cats and dogs,’ Biden tells voters while wearing Trump hat.
Joe Biden donned a Trump baseball cap and told a crowd of people “not to eat dogs and cats” during a light-hearted exchange on the campaign trail.
The US president was referring to wild claims repeated by Donald Trump during his debate with Kamala Harris on Tuesday that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are “eating the pets of the people that live there”.
Mr Biden was initially persuaded to wear his former opponent’s hat by a Trump supporter after a humorous back-and-forth between the two men.
It started off by Mr Biden offering to give his presidential hat to the Trump supporter, who asked him: “Are you going to autograph it?” Mr Biden said he would autograph the hat before the Trump supporter quipped: “Do you remember your name?”
The president joked back that he “doesn’t remember my name” because he’s “slow”, which sparked laughter among the crowd.
He doesn’t remember who is boss is as well, apparently.

ED MORRISSEY: Bidenflation Still Hammering the Working Class — Minorities Hardest Hit: WaPo.
Has inflation begun to ease back to normal? The Biden-Harris administration wants voters to believe it, arguing that consumer-goods prices appear to have stabilized. Have they?
Today’s Producer Price Index shows annualized unadjusted wholesale inflation dipping down to 1.7% in August. That would be welcome news for consumers, but inflation for wholesale consumer foods hit 4.2%. Most of the overall decline came in wholesale energy prices (-8.4%), which consumers will also welcome but may not be all that good of a trade-off from their weekly visit to grocery stores.
Yesterday’s Consumer Price Index offered a mixed bag, too, but not for the middle and working classes. The overall annualized rate dropped from July’s 2.9% to 2.5% in August, again mainly because of a dramatic fall in energy prices (-4.0%). The upward spike continued in shelter costs, shooting up 5.2% in August, and included both rentals (5.2%) and owner costs (5.4%). Insurance spiked 3.6%, and municipal utilities went up 4.2%.
And this, of course, follows on the effects of three years of high overall inflation and its compounding effects, especially on shelter costs. The unnecessary and predictably corrosive mass stimulus in the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris American Rescue Plan of March 2021 — the key initiative of Bidenomics — launched that 40-year-high inflation cycle, and it continues to pound consumers to this day.
Don’t worry — all the stats look fine:

POLARIS DAWN SETS ANOTHER RECORD: That’s One Small Walk for a Man (and a Woman)…
JOHN NOLTE: Time Issues Humiliating Correction Admitting Kamala Supports Taxpayer-Funded Gender Surgery for Illegals.
Despite all of this being true, here’s how Time covered this moment: “The former President … falsely claimed that Harris “wants to do transgender operations on illegal aliens in prison.”
Now, on top of Time being staffed with lousy, lazy, partisan, left-wing activists who spread misinformation, there’s another reason Time spread this lie… The idea of taxpayer-funded sex change operations for illegal aliens is so outside the mainstream, so wackadoodle, Time likely didn’t even bother to fact-check Trump’s statement. It was simply assumed Trump had invented this because no sane person would ever support something so ridiculously dumb. Honestly, what a way to attract every deviant on the planet to sneak into America — Free sex changes, girls!
Well, much to Time’s humiliation, the truth will out and the outlet was forced to not only issue a correction, but through a correction, a helluva lot more people will read the correction than Time’s dumb article, and the word is out that Kamala does indeed support taxpayer-funded sex-change operations for illegal aliens:
Correction, Sept. 11
The original version of this story mischaracterized as false Donald Trump’s statement accusing Kamala Harris of supporting “transgender operations on illegal aliens in prison” As a presidential candidate in 2019, Harris filled out a questionnaire saying she supported taxpayer-funded gender transition treatment for detained immigrants.
What’s especially interesting is that at no time since this news broke has Kamala or her campaign backed off of this wackadoodle belief.
She actually believes this, and as she made clear, her values have not changed.

BILL BARR: Mob Rule and Moral Bankruptcy at Columbia. “Antisemitism isn’t borne of ignorance at my alma mater. Antisemitism is taught there.”
Plus:
One instructor kicked off a class in the Master of Public Health program with a discussion of the Jewish “capitalists” who “laundered” their “dirty money” and “blood money” through donations to the university. Others silenced Jewish students in class discussions of the Holocaust and Israel. Still others moved class sessions and office hours to Columbia’s “Gaza Solidarity Encampment,” where Jewish students were routinely threatened and physically attacked.
For their part, campus demonstrators made no attempt to conceal their hatred of Jews. In fact, they made a public spectacle of it. A video cited by the report shows demonstrators stealing an Israeli flag from a Jewish student and assaulting him as he tried to stop them from setting it on fire. It shows demonstrators repeatedly shouting “Go back to Poland” at Jewish students as they walked across campus. One leader of the encampment proudly boasted, “Be grateful that I’m not just going out and murdering Zionists. . . I feel very comfortable calling for those people to die.” Still, the same university that offers hours of training on “microaggressions” refused to acknowledge decidedly macro-aggressive attacks on Jews.While all this was happening, administrators either minimized or denied the problem. One member of the Office of Diversity told a student that if the antisemitic incidents she observed made her feel unsafe, she should leave campus. Another administrator told individual students that they were the “only student” who had complained about antisemitism before referring each for mental health counseling.
The gaslighting is astonishing.
Not anymore, it isn’t. But it needs to be made expensive enough that it won’t keep happening.
