Snarling Joe Announces Unity Summit

Having spent the first 19 months of his term tearing the country apart, Joe Biden is now calling a “unity” summit. What gives?

Let’s see if we have this straight: Joe Biden’s Department of Justice just raided Donald Trump’s home, and now he’s calling a Unity Summit.

The guy has no shame.

Remember, this is the same Joe Biden who campaigned against Donald Trump in 2018 by saying, “If we were in high school, I’d take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.”

It’s the same Joe Biden who promised to “heal the soul of the nation” and be “a president for all Americans” and “fight as hard for those who did not support me as for those who did,” and then said Republicans’ efforts to enact modest voting reforms were “Jim Crow 2.0,” and “Jim Crow on steroids,” and “the most significant test of our democracy since the Civil War.”

It’s the same Joe Biden who earlier this year said, “This MAGA crowd is really the most extreme political organization that’s existed in American history — in recent American history.”

As The Washington Post reports:

The White House announced Friday that Mr. Biden will host the United We Stand Summit on Sept. 15, highlighting the “corrosive effects” of violence on public safety and democracy. Advocates pushed the president to hold the event after 10 Black people were killed at a Buffalo, New York, supermarket in May, aiming as well to address a succession of hate-driven violence in cities including El Paso, Texas, Pittsburgh and Oak Creek, Wisconsin.

“As President Biden said in Buffalo after the horrific mass shooting earlier this year, in the battle for the soul of our nation ‘we must all enlist in this great cause of America,’” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement. “The United We Stand Summit will present an important opportunity for Americans of all races, religions, regions, political affiliations, and walks of life to take up that cause together.”

Biden is expected to deliver a keynote speech at the event, which the White House says will include “a bipartisan group of federal, state, and local officials, civil rights groups, faith and community leaders, technology and business leaders, law enforcement officials, former members of violent hate groups who now work to prevent violence, gun violence prevention leaders, media representatives, and cultural figures.”

We have a sneaking suspicion, though, that not a single one of those 75 million Ultra MAGA Trump voters will be included. Nor will any of the FBI’s 14 whistleblowers be in attendance — and certainly not the ones who now claim that the bureau has artificially inflated its domestic violent extremism statistics to better support Biden’s ridiculous assertion that such extremism is the “greatest threat” we face as a nation.

No, we don’t think this summit will be about unity at all — unless we’re talking about unity in opposition to conservative speech. The ink on the White House’s press release was barely dry before hard-left speech suppressors like the Southern Poverty Law Center were chiming in, saying, “We stand ready to assist in the critical White House summit to address hate and extremism,” and, “We hope the summit will provide an opportunity for elected officials and faith, business, and community leaders to come together to identify best practices to address hate-fueled violence.”

That sounds less like an event meant to bring people together and more like an event meant to silence conservative speech ahead of a midterm election. As the Washington Times’s Cheryl Chumley writes: “First come the discussions about hate-fueled violence in America, leading to discussions about the genesis of hate-fueled violence. Then come the discussions about violence-fueling speech. Then come the agreements of the need to do something, do anything, do something quick to stop all this violence and then … the equating of words with actions.”

“Unity,” Joe Biden snarled. And he wondered why it didn’t work.
