What the?!?
But yes, there it is.
Biden should claim that tonight he is the Democratic Party nominee in 2024, Jack.
American Indians land? But they always claim they never owned any land.
A platform of deceit and lies.

But yes, there it is.
Biden should claim that tonight he is the Democratic Party nominee in 2024, Jack.
American Indians land? But they always claim they never owned any land.
A platform of deceit and lies.
The Democratic Party released its official platform on Sunday night, to be voted on at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois — and it calls for reelecting President Joe Biden, who was still the candidate at the time the document was finalized in mid-July.
“President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Democrats are running to finish the job,” it says.
Read the full, 91-page document here.
The platform begins with a “land acknowledgment,” declaring that the convention is being held on lands once belonging to Native Americans. This is a left-wing practice that, the Wall Street Journal noted last weekend, is central to the ideology behind campus anti-Israel protests — the claim that the United States and Israel are guilty of “settler colonialism.”
This also “means rejecting the understanding of American history that has been mainstream since the mid-20th century—that it is a story of slow progress toward fulfilling the nation’s founding promise of freedom for all,” the Journal notes.
The Democratic platform claims Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have achieved enormous progress for Americans, and that Donald Trump “is rigging our economy for his Mar-a-Lago friends and billionaire donors, who like him, are only in it for themselves.”
It omits some of Harris’s recent economic proposals, such as a taxpayer-funded $25,000 down payment for first-time home buyers and a $6,000-per-child tax credit. It does, however, include rhetoric claiming, without evidence, that companies are guilty of “price gouging,” a claim central to Harris’s demand for socialist-style price caps to fight inflation.
The platform makes a number of misleading claims, including the claim that the U.S. is “finally rebuilding … broadband” as part of the administration’s investment in infrastructure. Despite a $42.5 billion fund for expanding broadband under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, which Harris was meant to supervise, not one new connection has been built.
Despite focusing on President Biden, the platform omits some of his recent plans to “reform” the Supreme Court by imposing term limits, which Democrats would hope to use to oust conservative justices and replace them with liberals.
Among other highlights, the platform defends surgery and drug treatments for “transgender youth,” without specifying the age at which children should be provided such surgeries. “Democrats will vigorously oppose state and federal bans on gender-affirming health care,” it says. It does not mention the issue of transgender sports, and the question of biological males participating in women’s sporting activities.
The platform repeats the “very fine people” hoax — the false claim that Trump praised neo-Nazis in Charlottesville in 2017, when in fact he said they should be “totally” condemned.
On migration and the border, the platform claims: “President Biden has led with the conviction that we must secure our border and fix a broken immigration system decades in the making.” The platform blames Republicans in Congress for rejecting Biden’s proposed immigration legislation, which would legalize current migrant flows at massive levels.
