A WaPo perspective on family love.

A screen shot from the home page of The Washington Post right now:




















Not going to click. Not going to make links for you. I am fed up with the stupidity... the mere thought that we should want to read such dreck. It's an insult.

The photo of Trump is unfair - but certainly right in the WaPoo(D) wheelhouse.

The photo of Joe and his son is actually rather creepy. I doubt wapoo sees it. They are too busy adoring the corrupt duo.

Jack Klompus said...

DC is trash. Save the archives, the art, the historic artifacts and nuke that repulsive city.

Ken B said...

It is an insult. And their readers eat it up.

chickelit said...

WaPo news completely misses the news: This isn't about unconditional parental love; it's about pay-to-play politics and corruption. Shame on them for being so blinded by TDS.

Shouting Thomas said...

Here’s the proof of why you should endorse and vote for President Trump.

What’s blinding you?

We could use your help here, prof.

I’ve been a virtual prisoner in my house for 7 months. You seem to be having trouble putting some pretty basic things together.

None of us have an obligation to stick our necks out. And, yeah, for a woman with your aesthetic tastes, I can understand why you don’t get Trump. Be grateful for the defender you’ve got. One who looks and talks like a Harvard lawyer isn’t on the horizon.

Megthered said...

What is creepy is there are people who will vote for this corrupt, demented Biden family. And they are voting for the entire family. They see nothing wrong with Joe showering with his daughter, swimming nude in front of female SS agents, and say "poor Hunter" when they see pictures of him smoking crack and raping underage girls. They see nothing wrong with this demented behavior. But Trump is bad and they can't articulate why they think he is so bad. Their soul is hollowed out of their bodies, I don't even consider them human any more.

In the old Soviet Union days, the people could always tell what was happening in their own country by the stories in Pravda.
If there were stories about massive flooding in the West, it meant there had been a terrible flood in the USSR.
If there were stories about plane crashes in the West, that meant that a Russian plane had crashed.

The WaPo is just following that template... Running stories about how much the Bidens love each other means that something bad has happened with the Biden family.

Jupiter said...

C'mon, Man! Don't you do what you can to help your son?

And doesn't he kick back half of the proceeds to you?

pacwest said...

It seems to be more than unconditional love on Biden's part. More like aiding and abetting. But in fairness the kids both parents have entered into the family business. Trump's have followed him into the family business of commerce. Biden's into the family business of political graft.

Mary Beth said...

Unconditional love of money and corruption.

Well you can usually preserve a couple of I.Q. points by refusing to read an edition of the Washington Post. This morning's big story in the Los Angeles Times was about a bunch of immigrants who became citizens (good for them) just because they wanted to vote Trump out.
Heroes to the kids at the Times---ungrateful jerks to some readers.

Spiros said...

Hunter is a worthless piece of sh*t who needed a tyrant as a father. "My way or the highway" and "my way" does NOT include crack cocaine and sex with underage prostitutes!

NYC JournoList said...

Doesn’t Joe’s unconditional love of Hunter make the whole situation even more of a security risk? Isn’t a classical theme one of having to choose ones duty or nation over loved ones? Why do we want to live as chorus members in a greek tragedy? Keep it simple: vote Trump!

Joe Biden, America's Putin said...

I guess there is a video of Hunter having sex and smoking crack. Found on that laptop he dropped off. He probably dropped it off in the fog of drug use... Never pondering the possibility his old man would be running for president in 2020.

Imagine if a sex tape of Don Jr. emerged? A tape of Don Jr. smoking crack right there in front of you. Imagine what the entire press - from NY Times, to Wapoo, to ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Drudge and all their various affiliates - would be talking about.

You are pulling punches here, dear Althouse.

This is EVIL.

buwaya said...

Well, I have been saying for many years that the entire media system is a propaganda operation. You all should take this seriously. I am not insulted, or rather I don't feel insulted, because I know what I'm seeing.

These are effectively military operations, raids, bombardments and assaults. These are fair, once you have figured out the militarily necessary deceptions. Read Sun Tzu if you must, but its obvious regardless. They are not of you, but of the other side, and this all is an attack on you. You are still suffering from surprise, as these attacks seem to be coming from within your "camp". But they are not, they come from enemies.

Once you do get to this understanding, get over your surprise and modify your previous world-view, it is much easier to deal with these things in a detached, unemotional manner. It even becomes possible to respect those people, as enemies.

David Begley said...

If the Bidens aren’t indicted, we’re fucked as a country.

If the FBI was doing its job, it would now have all the money and bitcoin transfers from Hunter to Joe.

David Begley said...

WaPo is now Tiger Beat.

Breezy said...

I listened to a portion of Biden’s stump speech yesterday. No wonder he hasn’t been doing these. He’s just awful to listen to - yelling and fear-mongering galore. And he looked very frail as well - I kept thinking he was expelling too much air from the yelling and that he was going to pass out.

I’m sure he loves his son - too bad it’s not enough to spare him from the family business.

Joe Biden, America's Putin said...

Joe should be impeached. But he won't be - because our nation is a corrupt joke.
The FBI is corrupt. We really are fucked.

bagoh20 said...

holdfast said...

Jeff Bezos still needs all the cheap crap from China to sell on Amazon.

Thus the Washington Post will tell whatever lies are necessary in order to get Biden into office. And it’s not very hard, because their staff are all essentially Democrats (or further left), except for maybe three opinion writers. Actually scratch that, one opinion writer, Marc Theisen.

I Have Misplaced My Pants said...

And unconditional love is one thing, and that thing is not overlooking -- or even leveraging -- obvious and continuing substance abuse and partnering in theft and corruption. Any one who has experienced the pain of having an addict in the family knows that you love him until your last breath, but you still change the locks and your phone number. A comparison of what that is with the cesspool that is the Biden family is vile.

Mark O said...

Joe's fathering and love includes taking advantage of an addicted and weak child as his placeholder in a number of financial transactions based on Joe's political position. These transactions are structured to make it certain that Joe is not named and that all the exposure and liability rests on his "only surviving son."

Joe is a total scumbag.

Leland said...

buwaya said...

I suppose that part of being upset by the behavior of the media is a sort of sense of betrayal, of being let down by your own side.

Changing ones world view, that of seeing them as an adversary, fixes this. Now one can, perhaps, see the whole situation as a very successful, very extended ruse de guerre. Those odd fellows with your sides cockades on their hats? That are shooting at you? They are on the other side. Now things are clear.

I think the WaPo has nothing to run that can’t counter or refute the Hunter Biden laptop damning information. So, what do they run instead? A human interest story about Biden & his son that is meant to engender good feelings amongst the few undecided voters or people who may decide to vote this year when they haven’t in the past. The equivalent of “Hey! Look! It’s a squirrel!”.

His daughters diaries were supposedly released (don't know if true...looking for source) IF they are true...there is more than "family love" going on.

Lurker21 said...


Is it necessarily "unconditional love?" Reflexive defensiveness is another way of looking at it. Joe swats away a lot of negative charges with flat denials, so of course, for him, Hunter is wonderful and did nothing wrong.

One thing in Joe's favor: the rumors are outpacing the evidence. The more wacky theories that get bounced about on the Internet, the more likely it is that sympathy for Biden will build. Stick with what we actually know. It's damning enough.

One of the more difficult aspects of being an attorney is the obligation on occasion to make arguments that one does not necessarily believe in. It is part and parcel of the obligation to zealously represent a client. And is a small part of why people do not like or trust lawyers (except when they need one).

That is the exact opposite of the obligation of journalists, which is to zealously pursue and present the facts.

There is a reason why journalism ranks well below the legal profession in approval.

I once subscribed to the WaPo. My favorite columnist there was Jonathan Yardley, who was mainly a book critic but also occasionally wrote opinion pieces about politics and social trends. He was a liberal, but a tough-minded one, who criticized identity politics and the growing victimization culture. And his prose style was excellent.

There are no Yardleys writing for the WaPo now, just as there are no Michael Kellys at the Atlantic.

J. Farmer said...

@mockturtle:

On the subject of family love, I wanted to bring this up from the earlier thread.

I guess the reason the NFL can get away with their 'Coming Out Day' celebration of LGBTQ Month is that the stands are empty and no one can boo. If they do this today during the games, it will be the last NFL game I ever watch and I'm sure the few fans they still have will feel likewise. Satan always overplays his hand.

Of all the sordid affairs the NFL has been involved with over the years, that would be your final straw? Why exactly do you find booing an appropriate response? What would booing accomplished beyond demonstrating what callous, ill-mannered people they were?

It's football, not Sunday Mass. You're watching a bunch of millionaires chase a leather bladder around a field in between beer and boner pill commercials for fuck's sake. I get that young adults struggling emotionally and socially with their sexual identity is of no consequence to you, but they do exist and their suffering is real. So, you know, maybe a 30-second ad during your tailgating party isn't the biggest fucking deal in the world.

If it's Satan you are concerned with, search for him in your own heart. Don't go pointing him out in others'. That's God's place, not yours.

Because she knows who that article is targeted to.

It is targeted at her. She resents being treated like an idiot.

This despite the fact she voted for Hillary Clinton. The reason it hits home is she has had issues with poor judgement in the past and deep down she is insecure about the things she believes.

It is also targeted at her son.

And her son is lapping it up and voting for Biden.

Her team is treating her and everyone on her team like idiots.

And everyone on her team are acting like idiots.

Now she has to look in the mirror and ask "Am I stupid for being with these people all my life."

She has believed she is smarter than all of us deplorables and morally superior to us all her life.

And reality is intruding.

Althouse: "I am fed up with the stupidity... the mere thought that we should want to read such dreck. It's an insult."

So those terrible media folks at WaPo are publishing shit that insults because it publishes, among other things, negative comments on The Donald in support of Mary Trump as she attempts to shut down her crazy uncle. Indeed, the daughter of Fred, Jr., is attempting to be compensated for being ripped off by Donald when he directly influenced the distribution of Fred Sr.'s fortune.

On the other hand, it is OK for Trump to direct his henchmen to oversee publication of unproven garbage about Joe and Hunter Biden on election eve, but newspapers should "never say nothing" bad about America's worst president. "Lock him Up" for sure - lock Donald Trump up.

Speaking of dreck, there seems to be no brakes applied to the presenting of Trump conspiracies and lies by the Trumpian media channels as logical facts. For example, our president is neither a medical nor an infectious disease specialist but he repeats and repeats a lie about the novel coronavirus pandemic (despite cases and hospitalizations and deaths rising steadily since mid-September): "We are rounding the turn . We are rounding the corner." When did ever I read about Trump lies here except to innocently attribute them to his sense of humor?

Hey, American Thinker: don't tell me what to do. A major problem with the conservative movement is not striking with information people can understand. The smart move is to prime the American people for the coming revelations that Hunter Biden makes wildly inappropriate decisions fueled by drug use- including molesting underage girls. Instead, some sites insist on pushing nebulous "treason" charges to the front, when the fact is that there are a half dozen people in the Obama Administration who could have let that information out, either by malice or incompetence.

But Hunter Biden is singlehandedly destroying Joe Biden, and by extension the entire Democratic Party. How marvellous.

"We are rounding the turn . We are rounding the corner." When did ever I read about Trump lies here except to innocently attribute them to his sense of humor?

Usually I scan right by gadfly and his idiocies. In fact, aside from New York and New Jersey. both governed by idiots like gadfly, the rest of the country, especially red states are coming out of the pandemic. College kids are getting the virus which explains the case number. They are largely unaffected.

Here are some charts of the current status. Democrats are frantic to scare the population.

Unconditional love costs Hunter Biden 50% and his soul.

Joe used Humper's life as surety for the $$ he received

...Pluggs got the cash and made good on the bribe

joe "fingers" biden using his son, hunter, as a proxy for his pay to play kickback operation is proof of joe's love.

Not going to click. Not going to make links for you. I am fed up with the stupidity... the mere thought that we should want to read such dreck. It's an insult.


Then repay them. Vote for President Trump and GOP all the way. Make them pay the price of their folly. Make them see. Make them see you.

It's like when he...feeds you egg salad...for the fortieth time. You cut him off.

You have to admire Joe. He figured out a way to make a truly broken and despicable son into a wealthy, successful, and valuable asset to the family. If he could just put that into a seminar or video series that other parents could use to fix their families too. The man is a role model to parents across America and the world. He gives us all hope.

I just have one question for Biden people. If the money Hunter received was not to influence or buy off the Vice President of the United States or the entire administration, what was the reason for it? What is it about Hunter Biden that would explain paying him all that money? Do you really think these wealthy powerful interests in Russia, Ukraine, and China would invest millions or billions with a man with Hunter's history and obvious flaws. Nobody else more responsible was available in the whole world?

You should check out the video of Hunter’s 14 year old niece giving him a foot job. He told his dad about it. If that isn’t the truest test of unconditional love, I don’t know what it.

It's difficult to imagine they're actually changing anyone's mind with this kind of stuff. I suppose it might get Biden voters more excited and willing to actually go vote. I have my doubts about even that, though.

Is electing a potted plant of a man whose career in "public service" has mostly enriched his relatives really worth this kind of lickspittle sucking-up?

As cynical as I get, I just can't keep up.

Yesterday, Biden twice said he was running against "George"! I wonder what Mary Trumps psychiatrists would have to say about that?

This isn't unreadable: it is necessary reading. We need to fully confront the implications of the fascism implicit.

I think that the overarching takeaway from the laptop is that Joe Biden is likely a sociopath.
