Biden delivers cheap shot at Trump
SECTION I: THE DML REPORT
The $50 million cheap shot
From boxing to Biden, nobody likes a cheap shot
There was an infamous cheap shot delivered by boxer James "The Harlem Hammer" Butler to Richard "The Alien" Grant in November 2001. Butler had just lost a unanimous decision to Grant in a charity event to benefit the survivors of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Emotions were running high, and sportsmanship was supposed to be the name of the game.
But as the two fighters were about to shake hands and show their respect for each other, Butler did the unthinkable. He sucker-punched Grant with a vicious left hook, sending him crashing to the canvas. The referee immediately disqualified Butler, and the crowd erupted in anger and disbelief. Grant suffered a concussion and a broken jaw from the blow. Butler was arrested, charged with assault, and sentenced to four months in prison for his actions. It was a low point in boxing history.
Cheap shots can be verbal too, such as the one delivered by rapper Kanye West to George W. Bush during a live telethon for Hurricane Katrina victims in 2005. West was paired with actor Mike Myers to read a script encouraging viewers to donate to the Red Cross. But when it was West's turn to speak, he went off-script and delivered a verbal haymaker that would go down in history. "George Bush doesn't care about black people," West declared, as a shocked Myers looked on.
Sadly, the latest low blow worth mentioning is one that landed on Donald Trump. The hit below the belt was thrown by Joe Biden, and it cost his campaign $50 million.
The Biden campaign unveiled a new advertisement ahead of this month's first presidential debate, emphasizing former President Trump's conviction and asserting that "character" is the pivotal issue in the 2024 presidential race. The ad, titled "Character Matters," underscores the verdict in New York v. Trump, where a jury found the former president guilty on all 34 counts of first-degree falsification of business records. It also highlighted another head-shaking anti-Trump verdict from a kangaroo court in NYC: the sexual assault case against Trump by E. Jean Carroll.
I think the ad backfires on Biden. Most Americans feel as if Trump’s guilty verdict wouldn’t have ever happened if it weren’t for Biden’s DOJ weaponizing a questionable misdemeanor that was beyond the statute of limitations, and elevating it to a felony on the state level, particularly in ultra-liberal New York. We all know it was all a ploy to stick the label “convicted felon” onto Trump before the election.
Polling shows favoritism for Trump is at an all time high, especially in unexpected demographics (see today’s Biased Media section). Biden’s numbers continue to slip, as does his influence in his own party. It goes to show that cheap shots can be thrown, but what really matters is withstanding them to deliver back the killer blow. Trump will get his turn to throw a jaw-breaker at the debate later this month.
Bottom line: I think $50M was just wasted. I guess the bright side is Biden spent the money in the US versus sending it to Ukraine.

White House Claim - No commute expected for Hunter

Legal Woes: Giuliani’s money troubles
Rudy Giuliani's creditors urged a bankruptcy judge to appoint a trustee to manage his finances on Monday. After over two hours of arguments, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane did not rule on the request but voiced concerns about financial reporting and Giuliani's trouble maintaining a bookkeeper and accountant. Giuliani filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in December following a $148 million defamation verdict against him by two Georgia election workers. The workers argue their award can't be discharged in bankruptcy, but Chapter 11 allows Giuliani to retain control of his assets. Creditors accuse him of hiding finances and using bankruptcy as a delay tactic. More here…
