The Week In Pictures
July 27, 2024 — Steven Hayward
The media is really going the extra mile to give “fake news” a bad name with its wholesale revisionism of Kamala Harris’s record. And as Charlie Cooke pointed out, it was nice having an objective media for a month, when it reported finally on Joe Biden’s infirmities. The media is proclaiming Kamala as the greatest monarch-like girl-boss since Queen Elizabeth I, though I suspect more voters will see her as

Another extraordinary week calls for a special mid-week TWiP, or else this Saturday’s regular edition will be longer than Encyclopedia Brittanica. Wall Street’s best contrary indicator strikes again: Okay, so Kamala hasn’t ridden in the Dukakis tank yet, but this is even less likely to happen than fetch: And finally. . . Trump and his new Secret Service detail (as long as we have to have DEI hiring, we might

Who knew that the easiest way to foil the Secret Service is to slip them a roofie. (Thanks, I’ll be here all week. Try the veal.) Speaking of slippery slopes, the slide has been polished, greased, and sprayed down, but Joe Biden refused to ride it down. Hey—would you expect anything less from someone who faced down “bad dude” Corn Pop? I mean, after facing Corn Pop, Nancy Pelosi and

So this was the week Joe Biden and the Democratic machine, looking for a squirrel, any squirrel, discovered Project 2025, which—horror of horrors!—proposes conservative ideas for America. Ideas like sound fiscal policy, strong national defense, family values, lower taxes, less regulation, back to basics education, etc. In other words, for the left, a climate of hate. As Joe Biden might say, anyway. . . Now back to President Chauncey Gardner,

Looks like America is undergoing it’s own Orange Revolution. It is said that nothing rhymes with orange, but in the make-it-up world of Karine Jean-Pierre what rhymes with orange is “Joe Biden is the kindest, warmest, most wonderful human being I’ve ever known. Also the smartest and most energetic. In fact he ran a marathon before breakfast this morning. That’s why his face looked so orange in his latest appearance.

Good grief, it is only mid-day Monday out here on the left coast, but already the Biden memes are stacking up so fast that by Saturday the inventory could well exceed the capacity of our creaky website. Especially with the embarrassment of riches provided today by Vogue magazine. So here’s a special Monday edition of The Week in Pictures, and I don’t rule out a special mid-week edition as we

This week began auspiciously with the landslide defeat of the egregiously pro-Hamas “Squad” member and fire-alarm expert Jamaal Bowman, and it only got better from there. Then the Supreme Court started rolling strikes against the nine-pins of the administrative state, ruling on Wednesday that the Bill of Rights actually means what it said about jury trials, and holding up yet another stop-sign to the EPA. Then the Trump-Biden “debate,” (if

It is an axiom that the left can’t meme, but we learned this week that the left can’t grill, either. Hard to believe they really take Pride in these phony spectacles, but they are the same kind of people who think Star Wars is in desperate need of autologous space witches. Meanwhile, the climate cult hit Stonehenge this week. Ian Faith hardest hit. (IYKYK.) Headlines of the week: And

Isn’t it time for a sequel to “Being There,” since we have someone in the White House who makes Chauncey Gardner look like Napoleon or Bismarck? Hey, Biden has the media fooled every bit as much as Chauncey did, so maybe we can settle for a documentary (especially since we don’t have Peter Sellers around to play the role). Now back to our regularly scheduled Pride Month propaganda. Headlines of

I totally get the comparisons being made between the Biden regime and banana republics of old, especially since this is an insult to several former banana republics that are arguably better governed than the United States right now (El Salvador, Argentina—I’m looking at you!). And besides, the person who seems to be “slipping” (as the Wall Street Journal put it) on one banana peel after another is Joe Biden. Headlines

My truth—because everyone is entitled to their own proprietary truth now, right?—is that Donald Trump is not guilty of anything, except every blow he has struck against the left, which is a high crime at The Hague or somewhere. I’m certain that if Trump is elected again in November, the International Criminal Court will issue an arrest warrant for him (I’m not entirely joking about this), and he’ll share a

The Trump trial has descended into farce faster than expected. Cohen be goin’ anyone? Biden keeps inflating his mental capacities with made-up claims about inflation. Harrison Butker delivered a butt-kick to political correctness by embracing traditional Catholic doctrine at—shocker!—a Catholic college! What next? MPGA—Make Pronouns Great Again perhaps? And why, oh why, did King Charles choose that portrait artist? And is he a direct descendant of Graham Sutherland? Headlines

Great moments in presidential campaign immolation: George Romney confessing to being brainwashed; Howard Dean screaming like deranged Burlington street person; Hillary Clinton declaring half of America to be “deplorable;” Rick Perry saying “oops.” And now Kristi Noem shooting a dog—and maybe RFK Jr. confessing having his brain eaten by a worm, though I thought Kennedys preferred whisky to tequila. Speaking of dogs, over at the Trump trial this week. .

Joe Biden isn’t the only person with a cannibalism problem. College campuses are cannibalizing themselves, eating up their already dwindling moral and intellectual capital. And if the Columbia University administration had any sense it all, it might have cut off food to the occupiers of Hamilton Hall, whose imminent starvation if their pleas are to be believed, and surely cannibalism would soon have followed. Time for some fraternities to stage

We’re not done with Uncle Bosie yet, and I’m starting to wonder whether someone said something to (P)resident Biden about being a boss, or being too bossy, and it triggered one of his gummed-up but imaginative synapses to invent yet another tall tale about Biden lore—the Bidens being the greatest clan since the Borgias. The cannibalism makes perfect sense, too, since what’s left of Biden’s brain is clearly cannibalizing what

This is the week we learned at long last about Joe Biden’s forgotten uncle “Bosey,” who secretly received the congressional medal of honor for single-handledly subduing an entire tribe of New Guinea cannibals before single-handedly defeating the Japanese at Hiroshima, while rescuing Corn Pop’s eventual father while he was at it. (Apparently “don’t” wasn’t a word in his vocabulary.) What other Ripley’s-worthy family secrets is Joe from Scranton withholding from

Did everyone survive the eclipse okay? It seems some of the usual suspects (i.e., The View, The Squad, etc) didn’t, but that’s not exactly breaking news. But I am still waiting for a statement from Greta. I’m sure she said something important about the eclipse and climate change, but our media ignored her or something. In any case, let’s start with the real eclipse: Oh: Headlines of the week: Never
