COME SEE THE RACISM INHERENT IN THE LEFTISM: Joe Biden questions my blackness one moment, defends racist 1994 crime bill the next. “These are not gaffes. Democrats like Joe Biden are running scared because the Trump administration has been good for African Americans.”
CLAIM: China Played Biden And Obama ‘Like A Stradivarius.’

THE INTERNET IS FOREVER: Chinese Embassy In France Tweets and Deletes Anti-Semitic Imagery.
ENDORSED: Bring Back a True Gunboat. “The Navy’s problem remains its obsession with blue-water ships and big-budget contracts instead of stepping back and rationally thinking about what is actually needed to fulfill requirements at a cost-effective level in terms of construction, use, and the risk of combat losses. The enemy of ‘good enough’ is the desire for perfection and there is no reason to spend time and money reinventing the wheel when a proven gunboat design already exists that is good enough for the Navy’s littoral combat needs. A modern version of the Fairmile D motor torpedo boat—the famous Dog Boats of the Royal Navy’s coastal forces in World War II—is what the U.S. Navy needs today.”

TONY KATZ: A Virus Worse Than COVID-19. “The Times uses dead Americans as a prop to move the Narrative. Does anyone doubt this conceptual art piece on the front page of the Times isn’t saying, ‘Look! Look at all the people Trump killed’?”
What a garbage publication the NYT is.
ALLEGED DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE ROUNDUP: BidenWatch for May 25, 2020. “Senile Joe became Racist Joe this week, with one of the most amazingly ill-considered answers since Gerald R. Ford said Poland didn’t suffer from Soviet domination.”

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: Coronapocalypse Memorial Day Edition. “This is the first Memorial Day that I’ve been in charge of the Morning Briefing and I would like to begin by honoring those American service men and women I never who have sacrificed their lives so that people like me can be free to shoot my mouth off for a living. There never really seems to be any adequate way to say or do that but I keep trying every year on Memorial Day. God bless all of them and the loved ones they left behind.”
