Biden to give speech on threats to democracy from Capitol Hill on Wednesday
by Alex Gangitano - 11/02/22 9:41 AM ET
President Biden on Wednesday evening will deliver a speech focused on threats to democracy ahead of the midterm elections and following the violent attack on Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) husband last week.
The speech will be made on Capitol Hill, White House senior adviser Anita Dunn and deputy chief of staff Jen O’Malley Dillon announced at an Axios event on Wednesday morning.
The speech will take place the Columbus Club in Union Station at 7 p.m. and is hosted by the Democratic National Committee (DNC). It will focus on the threat of election deniers and “those who seek to undermine faith in voting and democracy,” according to the DNC.
“I think you can expect to hear from him this evening, similar to what he’s been saying over the course of the last several months, that there is a lot at stake in terms of democracy and everyone has a role in that,” O’Malley said. “The other thing that will be really important [is] people will be able to vote … democracy works to make sure every vote is counted.”
Dunn called it appropriate that it will be made on Capitol Hill “because on January 6, we saw violence geared towards subverting democratic processes there.”

Biden, and his fellow travelers in the DNC, are one of the biggest threats to democracy in this country.

Be sure to include slurs like:
Mega Maga Republican Or "Vitameatavegamin." the way Joe's brain will verbally process it.
Whisper for effect and then yell like an angry old man.

Uhhhhh????

So Democrats think they can turn things around by sending the Senile Old Scold out yet again to bluster and shout about how rotten and dangerous half the American people are?
Bring. It. On.

Sez the biggest threat to our democracy in our history.
The irony is epic.

Remember when Congress used to conduct the People's business on the floor of the US House and US Senate?
Now they create "frameworks" in backrooms and use the "mandate" of slimmest majority to ram policies down the People's throat.

Another "voters are a threat to our democracy" speech.
I'm betting the media protects the democrats and doesn't show the speech live ------ and their editors make big overtime bucks.

I say bring it on, also
But who is advising these people? He did this once before and it backfired. Does he think second time’s the charm?
-
I think what’s going on is fear
Many of these people running in the GOP are not the Mitt Romney, Liz Cheney, Paul Ryan Republicans. There is a lot of entrenched power that believe a big shake up is probably coming and that they will be exposed to the American people
And to that I say holy holy hallelujah

Joe Biden Smashes the Homeless to Give Unscheduled 'Threat to Democracy' Speech at Union Station
By Bonchie | 2:00 PM on November 02, 2022
Joe Biden is about to give another “red speech” on Wednesday evening. The unscheduled event will take place at Union Station, just across the street from the Capitol Grounds. Naturally, and predictably, the content will center on supposed “threats” to “democracy,” which is the only drum Democrats have left to beat prior to next week’s mid-terms.
Biden will reportedly address “election deniers and those who seek to undermine faith in voting and democracy.”
https://twitter.com/mviser/status/1587803294608621569
excerpt:
Everyone sees through this farce. Biden is a desperate, senile man who knows his party is about to get its clock cleaned. Whatever speech he ends up giving won’t move the needle for anyone. All it will be is fodder for people like me to point and laugh, and believe me, we’ll be doing that later tonight.
With that said, the story of this event gets better. Apparently, the authorities cleared all the homeless out of Union State in preparation.
There had been a tent city set up outside the historic landmark that officials had steadfastly refused to remove, part of the soaring crime rate in Washington, DC, in recent years. But the moment Biden wants to make a speech, the clean-up crews arrive. If that’s not a perfect contrast between Democrat elitism vs. what they demand normal people live with, I don’t know what is. That it’s coming on the eve of a major election is icing on the cake.

Biden expected to rally Dems with blistering remarks about democracy being on the ballot, MAGA Republicans
Biden expected to lay out an indictment of Republicans and 'election deniers' during DNC speech blocks away from the Capitol
By Haris Alic | Fox News
President Biden is expected to deliver a blistering attack on Republicans just blocks from the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday – less than a week before voters head to the polls and decide whether to keep Democrats in control of Congress.
Biden will speak at a Democratic National Committee event inside Union Station in Washington, D.C. Before an audience largely made up of Democratic Party chieftains and reporters, Biden is expected to lay out an indictment of Republicans and "election deniers."
The president offered a preview of the remarks Tuesday during an election rally in Florida with his party's Senate and gubernatorial candidates.
"There are 350 [election] deniers… on the Republican ballot, everything from state house races to secretaries of state, to governors, [and] to senators," said Biden. "Folks, there’s a lot at stake – a whole lot at stake."
Biden's DNC speech is expected to expand on those attacks and frame the upcoming midterms, where Democrats are defending narrow majorities in Congress, as a critical moment for American democracy. In making the argument, the president is likely to lean heavily on previous rhetoric warning that a vote for Democrats this cycle is an opportunity to rebuff political extremism.
"MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution," Biden said during a prime-time address from Philadelphia's Independence Hall in September. "MAGA forces are determined to take this country backwards to an America where there is no right to choose, no right to privacy, no right to contraception, no right to marry who you love."

Inflation is real.
Inflation hurts.
Inflation matters.
Inflation's pain is not a trifle.
Inflation will NOT be transitory until the Dems end their sanctions against domestic energy suppliers.
Dems will pay the price at the ballot box for their dismissal of REAL issues that effect voters.
Global Climate Change is UNREAL. The Biden Admin is sacrificing the economic security of the American people to solve a FICTIONAL problem.

What a perfect coda to the story of Democrats in the 2022 election. Clear out the homeless (a very real problem) from a failed shopping mall (another very real problem) so that you can sermonize about "threats to democracy" (a made-up problem). Incredible.

McCarthy slams Biden for 'dividing the nation' ahead of speech assailing MAGA Republicans
Biden is set to deliver remarks at a DNC event blocks from the U.S. Capitol Wednesday
By Brooke Singman | Fox News
EXCLUSIVE: House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy, reacting earlier in the day to news of President Biden’s political speech Wednesday night, told Fox News Digital that he is "dividing the nation instead of uniting it," and warned that the commander-in-chief could "get a very big wake-up call" on Election Day.
Biden was set to deliver an attack on Republicans at a Democratic National Committee event inside Union Station in Washington D.C., — just blocks from the U.S. Capitol — less than a week before voters cast their ballots and determine the balance of power in Congress.
Biden was set to slam Republicans and "election deniers."
But in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital Wednesday afternoon, McCarthy, R-Calif., said the American people "aren’t buying" what he described as Biden’s deflection.
"He is dividing the nation instead of uniting it at a time that we need to unite," McCarthy told Fox News Digital. "And he is doing that because he can’t talk about the policies where people are hurting—the pain of the cost of living and inflation and what they have caused."
McCarthy added: "He is trying to deflect, and the American people aren’t buying it, because every single day, they go to the store, and they can’t afford to buy things, they worry about the future of their children."
Biden, on Wednesday, previewed his remarks, saying there is a "whole lot at stake" on Election Day, saying that there are "350 [election] deniers…on the Republican ballot, everything from state house races to secretaries of state, to governors, to senators."
Biden’s DNC speech Wednesday night is expected to expand on those attacks and frame the midterms as critical for democracy, as Democrats try to hang on to power in the House of Representatives and the Senate.
Biden, in a controversial primetime address from Philadelphia's Independence Hall in September, slammed "MAGA Republicans," saying they "do not respect the Constitution."
"MAGA forces are determined to take this country backwards to an America where there is no right to choose, no right to privacy, no right to contraception, no right to marry who you love," Biden said in September.

FJB and his damned Democracy!
:yowsa:
The fact that we employ democratic elections for legislators and executives does not make America a "democracy". We are a constitutional republic.
Democracies are a form of government defined by majority rule, one that explicitly refuses to recognize the natural rights of all, and specifically those of minorities. It also rejects the need for the consent of all to be lawfully governed, and eschews any limits on the power of the majority.
That is why democracies always end in authoritarian rule. Which is precisely what they desire.

If Dems love 'democracy' so much, why are their Dem Reps and Senators ignoring the people they allege to represent?

If the House Dems believe in Deomcracy, why don't they stand up to Nancy Pelosi's tyrannical iron grip upon the House of Reps?
America did not elect Nancy Pelosi; only a few thousand fruitcakes from San Franciso Bay area voted for Nancy.
America did not make Nancy Pelosi House Speaker; House Dems did.
Nancy Pelosi, the Rep of a few thousand San Franciso Bay area fruitcackes, has more power than the rest of the Congress because Dems are afraid to stand up to her.

Biden suggests voting for Republicans is a threat to democracy
Biden singles out 'MAGA Republicans' as a threat, but most in GOP are supportive of Trump
Haris Alic
By Haris Alic | Fox News
President Biden urged Democrats on Wednesday to show up at the polls during next week's midterm elections or "allow the dark forces that thirst for power" to chip away at American democracy.
Biden urged a crowd of supporters at a Democratic National Committee event inside Union Station in Washington, D.C. not to take the election for granted. The president argued that Democrats had to show up at the polls because Republicans could not be entrusted with political power.
"We're facing a defining moment," said Biden. "We must with one overwhelming, unified voice speak, as a country and say there's no place for voter intimidation or political violence in America."
During his remarks, Biden leaned heavily on past rhetoric painting the midterms as an opportunity to rebuff the GOP's political extremism.
"It's estimated that more than 300 [GOP] election deniers are on the ballot all across America this year," said Biden. "This is not about me … It's about the durability of our democracy."
Biden's comments come less than a week after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband was violently attacked in San Francisco, California. While the motive for the assault remains uncertain, Democrats have been quick to claim that years of GOP criticism made Pelosi and her family targets.
