The audience for the theater of hurricane empathy is vast, observant, and ready to put its critique in writing.

This is the kind of picture that Obama photographer sycophant guy would pee himself about.

RideSpaceMountain said...

Her post on X implies that A) Kamala actually knows how to plug in the earphones to the phone jack and B) that Kamala doesn't realize that her pen is out of ink, but god bless her, she's one tenacious cookie.

Her make-believe world: Kamalot

Lem Vibe Bandit said...

rhhardin please pickup the white curtesy phone.

Iman said...

In Kamalot she likes to pull the other one
A lot…

mikeski said...

Cell phones don't work up there and I'm pretty sure that AF2 has its own comms system, yeah?

Cacklin' Kammie, get on board!

lonejustice said...

Well, in all fairness she might have had it on speaker phone. When you are on your own private jet you don't worry about bothering other passengers. Or maybe she was reading a report of something that was sent to her on instant message. We always assume the worst about our political opponents. Both sides do it constantly.

Lem Vibe Bandit said...

The head resting on her knuckles must be that she is so tired from all the campaigning and the governing and the... and the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon... When is Kamala coming home... Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just-a wrote me a letter.

doctrev said...

Then why wear obviously wired earbuds? The only thing shabbier than Harris photo-ops are your excuse making for them.

Humperdink said...

Lj rallies to her defense. On the bright side, she can spell potato.

Wince said...

Notice how her head hides the "Vice."

Gusty Winds said...

Clown show.

RideSpaceMountain said...

You're right that we always assume the worst about our political opponents, and in Kamala's case, we're usually shocked at how much lower our expectations should have been.

tcrosse said...

She's doing Wordle.

Gusty Winds said...

Are the feminists applauding? Is this what they envisioned?

Kakistocracy said...

13 million views for fake outrage. The cord is there — it looks like a shadow at first glance but the cord can be seen.

n.n said...

Whoopi, she's em-pathetic. They're aborting Americans, raping women, molesting girls, and replacing minorities through federal subsidies. Immigration reform on line one. Labor arbitrage on line two. Hello, is there anybody out there?

FullMoon said...

Good catch

Dixcus said...

"Ohhh .... Just like Evita!" - Veep

Joe Biden says everything that can be done is being done, but the roads are out, so the government can't get in there to help people.

As if the US government doesn't own 742,000 helicopters and has sent the Ukraine $400 billion dollars over the last 4 years.

We need to eliminate this government. Violently if required.

MayBee said...

That’s the edge of the table and the wood. It isn’t there, there is nothing that has the correct angle to go into the port.

looked in urban dictionary - found out - Kamala expertise is ink out of pen

Rusty said...

As usual. A day late and a dollar short. Wanna bet the Confederate Navy was there the day it happened. Hell. As it happened.

FullMoon said...

MayBee is correct. Dog eater is lying.

n.n said...

The cable ends at the table's edge is a metaphor for immigration reform at the border with gay empathy for aborting persons, rape-raping women, and raping girls.

It's raining cats and dogs.

Narayanan said...

smart - she is not using pager

Only one chopper in the Asheville area and it's privately owned.

If you’ve ever seen combat engineers at work you know they can do anything.

Where are they?

Lem Vibe Bandit said...

Let’s face it. Kamala is tired.

Humperdink said...

At the height of the Covid fraud, I recall a photo of Anthony Fauci at a Washington National baseball game sitting in the stands with two friends, sans mask. Lefties came out of the woodwork rationalizing his behavior.

Jersey Fled said...

Answering my own question. On a battlefield you don’t have 1000 bureaucrats looking over your shoulder.

Peachy said...

My fav is the other day when Kamala promised "when she gets in" "She will solve the border crisis!" (crisis she created)

SHE IS IN.

Goes hand in hand with the obsessive farce that Trump is still president and all the things will be blamed on him.

Peachy said...

Is Vindman listening in?

NorthOfTheOneOhOne said...

Gotta have the ear buds in so people will think she's working and not just writing out a list of yard chores for when Tim Walz comes over to mow her grass.

Peachy said...

OUCH.

Joe and Kamala are useless figureheads.
Inept fake-caring puppets.

tim maguire said...

You'd do better to point out she never said she was on the cell phone at all then to pretend you can see a phantom cord.

AlbertAnonymous said...

There’s another staged picture at a big table with the FEMA lettering on the wall behind her as if she’s chairing a meeting. They let the gaggle of reported in so the could click pics, but no questions (and no answers). So fake.

jim said...

On his bus tour to disaster, did Trump remember the paper towels?

Marcus Carman said...

Oh but the look of absolute boredom is genuine.

Lem Vibe Bandit said...

😂

Iman said...

Thank you for the morning chuckles, gentlemen!

Peachy said...

Your sanctuary city is because Trump called it one. See -this is easy!
Did Trump seed the clouds?
Ah - John Kerry - the KING - would like the first amendment struck down - so you will not be allowed to mock the KING.

Peachy said...

I saw that. They use the backdrop of the Official Presidential Seal - a lot with this one.

NorthOfTheOneOhOne said...

They seem to belong to the "Rewardist" school. You see that a lot in the corporate world, people get promoted to a certain level and think they don't really have to do anything because the promotion was a reward. Pete Buttigieg is a prime example. So is Gina Raimondo, she got asked about the longshoremen's strike on CNBC yesterday and didn't seem to be aware of what was going on.

Did her previous pager explode recently?

Iman said...

She ain’t in no ways tahred.

Iman said...

eat teh cat, lad. You can’t have your pudding if you don’t eat teh cat.

Achilles said...

Democrats are just evil lying pieces of crap at this point.

Joe and Kamala denied Starlink to that area because they hate Elon. Now they have no internet.

There are hundreds of blackhawk and chinook helicopters a couple hundred miles away at Bragg and Campbell. They are doing nothing.

Trump is actually in the area and bringing more resources and spending more time as a private citizen than Joe and Kamala are doing combined. This has been an absolutely pathetic disaster response by this obviously corrupt and worthless administration.

Bob Boyd said...

She's talking to a desperate local official and taking notes.
On the paper she has written:
They're eating the dogs
They're eating the cats
Other pets
Need propane!
What about BBQ sauce?
potato salad
plastic utensils
paper towels
beer
ice
something for dessert?
Ask Julie who is in charge of potlucks for SE US.

Ralph L said...

Hey tcrosse, on my computer, it makes no difference if you use capital I or little i for italics.

Mr. T. said...

The "cord" that somehow manages to bifurcate to both sides of table miraculous from her wrist? With your knowledge of basic anatomy, it's no wonder your side keeps operating with the pedantic, psychotic illusion that men are girls.

Peachy said...

So all the reports from the people who live in Springfield - regarding pet-eating/ park animal eating- are all LIES! according to the fake-jurno/loyal-D sitting behind their desks in LA, Chicago and NYC.

Deep State Reformer said...

The good thing about that photo is they can use it for pretty much any emergency or situation at all by just changing the caption. The Biden-Harris regime being phony as ever. If I were those people down there I wouldn't expect too much cuz the Dems lose all their compassion when disasters happen over in fly over country.

Rocco said...

RideSpaceMountain said...
Her post on X implies that Kamala actually knows how to plug in the earphones to the phone jack

I would have expected that one of the things she learned under Willie Brown’s tutelage is how the cord goes into the port.

Big Mike said...

Governor Cooper (D) has tried blame-shifting by self-righteously proclaiming that people living in low-lying areas were told to evacuate.

To which the survivors of the flooding point out that they live in the mountains.

Michael K said...

Bich is trying to polish another turd.

Peachy said...

Fake Fake Fake

Ampersand said...

Every 10 years or so, we have the worst storm in 10 years. Lots of photo ops and ass covering. Are there actually people out there so unsophisticated that this event will alter their voting behavior? I suppose the answer to that is yes, and in close elections that bothers me.

Peachy said...

Your lying eyes, everyone. Your lying eyes.

Michael K said...

That was as much as he knows about his state.

chuck said...

Make your enemies defend the indefensible -- Sun Tzu might have said.

Leland said...

You put earbuds on when you listen on speaker? Way to improve your credibility as a pure Dem hack.

Bruce Hayden said...

“ There are hundreds of blackhawk and chinook helicopters a couple hundred miles away at Bragg and Campbell. They are doing nothing.”

But Joe Biden assured us that there were no resources available for the disaster.

Eva Marie said...

There’s that $60,000 necklace again:

Bruce Hayden said...

I think that Harris/Walz can kiss the votes for the SE goodbye. Most worrisome for them is probably GA. Showing up is half the battle. Trump showed up and none of FJB, Harris, or Walz bothered to do so. The first two are the government officials elected to do that. The third wants that job. Trump, whose job it no longer is, did show up, with aid. By now, many also know that the Army has hundreds of helicopters available at nearby Forts, and that the FEMA coffers are empty, taking care of all the illegals they encouraged to come to this country.

Yancey Ward said...

The photo was staged like all such photos are. There is literally zero chance Harris has any role whatsoever in the FEMA effort- all of this is run at a level far removed from the office of Vice President. A better critique of the Biden Administration effort would be to ask how much of FEMA's supplies and equipment have been shipped to Ukraine and Israel over the last 2.5 years.

Iman said...

Her head has always been an active participant in “Teh Vice”.

Maynard said...

Megan (red pilled) Kelly nailed it with her description of Kamala-lala-ding-dong, "She's an actress. That's all".

Maynard said...

Julia Louis Dreyfus is Kamala-lala-ding-dong's role model. However, Julia probably has about 25 more IQ points.

Darkisland said...

Yup, Nobody ever points out that this flooding in Asheville is only the 3rd worst flooding they've had since 1900. 1902 and 1916 (years?) were worse.

Darkisland said...

Don't forget the SeaBees

JK Brown said...

Harris is apparently unaware of how Herbert Hoover set himself up to be the next president by leading the first federal response to a massive multi-state flood

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

I get the feeling Robby Reich is overlooking viral moments like this, and her encouraging the Floyd riots to keep going in 2020, and her crazy ideas on Gun control...

Big Mike said...

@Althouse, I am glad to see you supplementing the list of female journalists you read with the likes of Mollie Hemingway. May I suggest Salena Zito?

If Trump can show the receipts, Harris is toast--or this country is. Let's see what Vance does with it tonight.

Ralph L said...

She really needs better staff, if she isn't going to pay attention to details herself.

Greg The Class Traitor said...

She's flying, which means she can't be using the phone as a one, anyway

Michael K said...

And that Mayor who denied the story owns the building he is renting to the feds for Haitian housing to big bucks.

Michael K said...

Or used for "migrants".

Northoftheone, that does explain Buttigieg. They think the office is ceremonial.

Yancey Ward said...

Yes, that, too.

loudogblog said...

I really object to calling hardwired earbuds "antiquated earphones." They're just the hardwired version of earbud technology. I actually prefer hardwired to wireless. The wireless earbuds are heavier and fall out more often. It's really easy to lose one. (Which makes the other one useless.) And all this battery operated technology, when it doesn't need to be battery powered, is bad for the environment. Those wireless earbuds can't be repaired cost effectively and will be in the toxic waste dump in a few years.

I have hardwired ear buds, but if I want high quality audio, I grab my AKG studio headphones. I've had them for a few decades and they sound like a million bucks. They do require a 1/4" to 1/8" TRS (tip, ring, sleeve) adaptor to work with modern devices. (Like watching videos on a laptop.)

I think, Greg, that she's on the ground. That's why the shades are drawn, so as not to break the illusion of activity in progress.

Can I upvote all the previous replies to the lone dude?

Narayanan said...

Israel? or more like Road to Gaza Pier?

Narayanan said...

no fashion advice to King either!

is there not JAG for each rifle toting grunt?

Big Mike said...

We see how people vying to lead us react to extraordinary events. It helps.

Robin Goodfellow said...

Another empty suit.

Jim at said...

The fact they had to take this picture (fake or not) reveals just how shallow she really is. Look at meeeee! I'm doing my job!!!!

Well, what the hell else are you supposed to be doing if not your job?

Jim at said...

At the height of the Covid fraud, I recall a photo of Anthony Fauci at a Washington National baseball game sitting in the stands with two friends, sans mask.

Yep. And that was after he wore a stupid mask to throw out the first pitch.

Population of Asheville NC in 1902 = 15,000
Population of Asheville NC in 1920 = 28,000
Population of Asheville NC in 2024 = 95,000
Think an extra 70,000 people around changes the dynamic some?

Barry Dauphin said...

The aftermath of a hurricane. A (vice) president in a plane tends not to be a great framing for a politician. Ask Bush.
