Everyone informed American knows Joe Biden Is a complete failure. Anyone who does not know that is not paying attention. Even Democrats know it and are even saying it. Quote: "To State The Obvious, Biden Is A Remarkably Bad Negotiator And Doesn’t Understand How The World Works. If you ask President Joe Biden’s colleagues from his years as vice president, he is an “unguided missile” when under pressure, has “been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue” during the last 40 years, and allegedly has an underestimated ability to “f*** things up.” Those — shall we say — brutal character flaws mean that as commander-in-chief, he is a remarkably bad international negotiator and does not understand how the world works. In case you have not noticed, the entire globe is in disarray under Biden.
The president’s lack of deal-making skills seems to be one of the main culprits behind the international disorder. Consider the following: Biden asked Saudi Arabia to postpone petroleum production cuts until after the U.S. midterm elections, warned Russia not to invade Ukraine, and requested that oil companies lower the cost of high gas prices. None of the three occurred, and it’s no surprise why.
Why would any of those entities go along with what Biden says if they weren’t given any incentives or genuine threats?This week, it was reported that Biden asked Saudi Arabia to postpone cutting petroleum production until after the midterms. OPEC+ declined. Now, Biden is looking at all options, and his Democratic colleagues are calling upon the U.S. to block arms sales with the Middle Eastern nation as payback. “Quid pro quo” legalities aside, why wouldn’t Biden threaten to cut off military support prior to the Saudis’ decision? It’s like this president does everything backward. There are never any perfect comparisons in history, but we have a close one to this debacle from President Donald J. Trump’s time in office — with markedly different results.
In the middle of the pandemic in 2020, Saudi Arabia was threatening to increase the oil supply by millions of barrels, which would have cratered the American oil market and resulted in even more economic ruin. Once he caught wind of that plan, Trump told Saudi Arabia that he wouldn’t stop Congress from passing a law to pull U.S. troops out of the Kingdom. If Saudi cut oil production, the troops would stay. It was an unprecedented threat, but it worked. OPEC didn’t increase production and instead reduced it. Here’s how the left-leaning Reuters described it:The threat to upend a 75-year strategic alliance, which has not been previously reported, was central to the U.S. pressure campaign that led to a landmark global deal to slash oil supply as demand collapsed in the coronavirus pandemic – scoring a diplomatic victory for the White House.
It would have been nice if Biden used that sort of strategy this time around. Trump secured diplomatic victories while Biden is now scrambling. Regarding Russia, Biden also spent months leading up to President Vladimir Putin’s invasion cautioning the dictator that his country would suffer economic ruin, consequences, and more. Putin, obviously, ignored those messages and has been waging brutal military conflict ever since. Trump, for his part, claimed that he told Putin outright that he would bomb Moscow if the country ever invaded Ukraine while he was in office. That claim cannot be confirmed, but it is a fact that Putin was aggressive toward Ukraine under both Biden and President Barack Obama — yet held off under Trump.
Furthermore, reports indicate that Biden’s fecklessness in Afghanistan played a role in Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine. The current president withdrew our military, allowed the Taliban to take over the country within three days, and America was humiliated on the world stage. Again, in Afghanistan, Biden did everything backward.
Then there are those pesky gas prices.In late September, Biden said with a tone, “My message is simple. To the companies running gas stations and setting those prices at the pump: Bring down the prices you’re charging at the pump to reflect the cost you pay for the product. Do it now.” The president also asked that in June as well, and was promptly manhandled by the president and CEO of the American Petroleum Institute. API’s Mike Sommers gave Biden a detailed 10 points explaining how he could “prioritize unlocking U.S. energy resources – that are the envy of the world – instead of increasing reliance on foreign sources.”
It doesn’t seem like Biden listened at all.Did the president think the Crown Prince, Putin, or gas company CEOs would act out of the kindness of their own hearts? Is he really that dense? Unfortunately, Biden is what happens when a man who is praised by many and supported by none gets into the Oval Office. He has no executive skills because he has never been an executive decision-maker in his nearly 50 years in Washington, D.C."

The Democrat party's ability to continue to steal elections is slowly but surely being eroded by the nation's courts. This is good news but is long past time being addressed. The fraud found in the 2016, 2020 and 2022 elections prove the point.
Quote: "Judge strikes down North Carolina election observer rule. North Carolina Republicans just obtained an important legal victory for election integrity ahead of the midterm elections. Breitbart News reports that a judge has just struck down a North Carolina rule that placed a key limitation on election observers.
Background.
This legal battle has to do with a 2018 rule issued by the North Carolina Board of Elections. The rule had to do with the observers of at-large elections. What the board’s rule did was require these at-large election observers to observe for at least four hours before they can be replaced by a new observer. In September, this rule was challenged by a number of Republican groups, including the Republican National Committee (RNC), the North Carolina GOP, and the Clay Country GOP. And, while this lawsuit is ongoing, the Republicans filed a preliminary injunction looking to prevent the rule from being implemented while litigation regarding its legality takes place. The Republicans have presented a number of arguments for their case, including that the board doesn’t have the authority to issue such a rule and that the rule, itself, violates state election law.
"Legal Victory."
On Thursday, the judge ruled in favor of the Republicans. Judge Vince Rozier in the Wake Superior Court, specifically, granted the Republicans’ request for a preliminary injunction, stopping the rule from being implemented. It ought to be noted that the legality of the law, itself, has not been decided. That will be determined at a later date. Chances are that the board will appeal the injunction, although it has yet to indicate as much. For now, though, the Republicans are celebrating their victory. RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel has put out a statement, saying: The RNC, NCGOP, and Clay County GOP Chairman sued the North Carolina Board of Elections because North Carolinians deserve transparency at the ballot box. This legal victory protects the rights of poll watchers and underscores the Republican Party’s commitment to free, fair, and transparent elections in the Tar Heel State. As midterms approach, we will continue our fight to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat in North Carolina and nationwide."
