Congratulations to Joe Biden on today’s birth of his four-year-old granddaughter!

President Biden has a son, of sorts. This son has some, um, issues.

One of the son’s issues is his issuance, a daughter he fathered with a woman he says he’s never met. The result was the woman’s birth of a little girl she named Navy.

The son denied that he was little Navy’s father. But paternity tests showed he was. He continued to deny his paternity. But he denies lots of things that are true.

So does his father. President Joe refused to acknowledge that Navy is his granddaughter, even after the paternity tests proved she was. As recently as a week or two ago, he specifically instructed the White House staff to deny that his granddaughter was his granddaughter – because the little girl was politically inconvenient to him.

The little girl is now four.

Hunter’s lawyers and the prosecutor just got caught with their pants down

The prosecutors gave Hunter Biden a sweetheart plea bargain to end the tax fraud and gun case against him. For offenses that most certainly would have landed you or me in jail for years, Hunter got . . .

. . . [drum roll] . . .

. . . nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero jail time. He didn’t even have to pay all of his unpaid taxes because the prosecution dallied so long that the statute of limitations ran out.

And the deal apparently immunized him against unrelated charges. He would walk, a new man.

Well, not entirely. He would still be a man who was a drug addict, a deadbeat dad, a pervert, a tax evader, and a slouch. (But give him credit for his paintings!) But he would be a man immunized from any accountability for his crimes.

Meanwhile, Congress continues to investigate Hunter. Or as the media likes to say, “Republicans have seized” and “Republicans have pounced” upon the allegations.

Those pouncing and seizing Republicans – can’t they just move on?

Diversity czars are getting the ax

You should pity czars. Things never end well for them.

The reign of diversity czars began a few years ago when a jury found that a violent drug-addled Black criminal was murdered by an idiotic white police officer ostensibly trying to subdue him.

This rarely happens, thankfully. In fact, more cops get murdered by Black criminals than the other way around. And when Black criminals do get murdered by cops, the cops are usually Black themselves (though the left would say cops are never Black even if their skin color is black because, after all, cops promote white justice and not Black Justice).

Anyway, the establishment decided they had to make a show of their opposition to Black people getting murdered by white cops, even if it hardly ever happens. This little minstrel show was called Black Lives Matter. Corporations gave millions to a few Black people to whom Black Lives Matter mattered a lot, moneywise.

Will Justice Jackson be woman enough to admit and correct her arithmetic mistake?

Pornography used to make its way to the Supreme Court regularly.

In a 1964 case, Justice Potter Stewart had one of the most colorful lines ever in a Supreme Court opinion, despite or perhaps because his line was not particularly scholarly. It was a case where the Court struggled to define “hard-core” pornography that was not protected by the First Amendment versus soft core stuff that was.

The Justices were reluctant to admit to any expertise in the subject. Stewart, however, declared in his concurring opinion “I know it when I see it.”

In that particular case, Stewart didn’t see it; he said the movie at issue was not pornographic. He later expressed regret for “I know [pornography] when I see it” being his most famous line. But he could have done worse in the annals of history. Justice Roger Taney is remembered for stupidly saying in the 1857 Dred Scott decision that Blacks were “altogether unfit to associate with the white race.”

Which brings us to Justice Ketanji Onyika Brown Jackson, the Court’s newest member who is an accomplished woman that happens to be Black. (These days you’re supposed to notice and applaud that, unless they’re politically conservative, and she’s not.)

Justice Jackson wants to increase the Black baby survival rate to 198% but what about the Black abortion rate?

The three libs were outvoted last week when the Supreme Court declared Harvard’s racial discrimination illegal. So, they did what liberals do when they lose – they shouted, invented “facts,” and implied that the majority were racist.

The facts they invented included the following.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson recited as a “fact” that Black pediatricians, as compared to white pediatricians, double the survival rate of black babies. She implied that Black babies die more often when under the care of white pediatricians because the white ones are racist.

Therefore, her reasoning goes, we should favor Blacks in college admissions – so that we can double the Black baby survival rate.

Independence Day and Thanksgiving define America

My father’s father – my grandfather – died in the depths of the Great Depression when my father was five. He was the second husband his mother buried. She then single-handedly raised my father, his brother and his half-sister.

For a few years anyway. My father flunked the sixth grade, twice. He dropped out of school altogether in the eighth grade to go to work to help support the family. Kids grew up early in those days.

He joined the army at age 17 just before the war ended, and served in Europe and Japan. He got his GED, and landed a job as an engineering technician.

Fewer racial minorities in college will help racial minorities

In a methodical and scholarly decision written by Chief Justice John Roberts, the Supreme Court this week did what I predicted last fall they would do. They said racial discrimination in college admissions is unconstitutional.

Several other Justices joined Roberts’ decision while also writing their own concurrences, including Justice Clarence Thomas in an emotion-packed opinion of Constitutional originalism that would do proud his old mentor, Justice Antonin Scalia.

It’s a landmark decision that is far more important than last year’s Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade (unless you happen to be a fetus). I take personal delight that the named defendant that history will saddle with the loss is Harvard, a place that once rejected my application to law school and, more importantly, is the vanguard of the liberal intelligentsia.

It’s time for today’s Democrats to do what 1974’s Republicans did

“I am not a crook,” proclaimed Richard Nixon shortly before he resigned in disgrace.

And he wasn’t. At least not in the ordinary sense. Some lowlifes hired by an overzealous Committee to Reelect the President burglarized the Democrats at the Watergate Hotel. Nixon then foolishly tried to cover it up. That amounted to the technical and manufactured “crime” of obstruction of justice. But what Nixon himself did was not burglary – the burglary was committed without Nixon’s knowledge.

Then there’s Joe Biden.

Joe apparently was on the take. He and his family – at least nine of them at last count – appear to have taken millions from America’s competitors and even enemies around the world. His creepy son Hunter was the bag man for these bribes, but what Hunter was selling was 100% Joe.

That this happened is no longer seriously disputed.

Why can a nine-year-old boy consent to having his penis filleted but not fellated?

The list of things that nine-year-old boys are prohibited from doing is long. They cannot drive, vote, skip school, get a tattoo without parental permission, buy cigarettes or marijuana or alcohol, or irrevocably mutilate their bodies.

If you’ve ever met a nine-year-old boy, you’d probably agree that these prohibitions are sensible.

Another thing a nine-year-old boy cannot do is to consent to sexual relations with another person. We sensibly deem the nine-year-old brain incapable of granting consent to such an act.

But the people who labeled themselves “woke” until society began associating their chosen label with their nutty ideas, say that a nine-year-old boy – without his parent’s consent or even knowledge – should be able to have his penis amputated. He can get his penis filleted but not fellated.

Amputation of his penis is apparently exempt from the prohibition on mutilating other parts of his body. He still can’t get a tattoo.

Democrats will defy the Supreme Court’s upcoming decision outlawing racial discrimination in schools, just as they did in Brown v. Board of Education

The Supreme Court in 1954 unanimously declared in Brown v. Board of Education that racial discrimination in schools is unconstitutional.

The reaction of Democrats was indignation and defiance. Democrat Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus called out the state National Guard to prevent Blacks from entering white schools.

Democrat Virginia Senator Harry Byrd organized the “Southern Manifesto” calling for Brown to be reversed and vowing never to implement it. It was signed by 99 Democrats but only two Republicans, including all but two of the Democrat senators from states in the former Confederacy. Democrats in Virginia passed the Stanley Plan, named after Democrat Virginia Governor Thomas Stanley, barring any state school receiving state funds from following the Brown ruling.

Democrat-controlled legislatures across the South closed many schools to avoid having to integrate them. The Democrat legislature of Florida passed a resolution declaring Brown “null and void.” A Democrat member of the Ku Klux Klan murdered a Black civil rights activist for daring to file a lawsuit to enforce Brown in Mississippi.

Democrat Alabama Governor George Wallace personally stood in the doorway to block Black enrollment at the University of Alabama.
