In a fiery exchange during Sunday’s This Week on ABC, former Republican Governor Chris Christie took on the liberal panel single-handedly as he called out President Biden for “capitulating” to the radical elements of his party just as he did the Taliban. And his bluntness left the host stammering and largely ineffective at quelling the shouting that ensued.
Leading up to his comments, Christie was asked by fill-in host Jonathan Karl to address how Republicans were able to take it easy while Democrats were taking swings at each other over infrastructure and social spending legislation.
“I had a political science professor in college who told me, ‘When your adversary is in the midst of committing suicide, there’s no reason to commit murder. The result is the same,’” he quipped.
From there, he followed up with the spark that kicked off the fireworks, saying that the moderate Biden the media pitched us didn’t exist: It’s the death of 2020 Joe Biden. When he went to the Hill, 2 020 Joe Biden is now officially dead and buried. The guy who ran against the progressives, ran against Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, ran to be uniter in this country, ran saying he was going to force compromise. And he went up to Capitol Hill, and he capitulated to the progressives, the liberals in his party. And why should we be surprised? He couldn’t stand up to the Taliban. How can we expect him to stand up to AOC? It took a moment for what he said to sink in as Karl tried to keep things under control. “Okay. Okay. So, so look, Donna, that’s a partisan take to be sure. But, but—,“ he began as Christie was determined to stir the pot: “ Let me ask you a question. Hold on a second. Did he stand up to the Taliban? Why is that partisan? ”
Long-time Democratic operative Donna Brazile was infuriated by Christie’s assertion and tried to bring things back to former President Trump, but Christie wouldn’t let her (Click “expand”): BRAZILE: He wasn’t — CHRISTIE: He hasn’t stood up to anyone except for […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
