BTRTN Announces Winners of the 2025 "Lindsey Grahammys" for the Worst in Political Hypocrisy

[reggieandlee]

Every year on the day the music industry hands out its “Grammy” awards, Born To Run The Numbers announces the winners of its "Grahammy" awards -- the "Lindsey Grahammy" awards for the year's most egregious examples of political hypocrisy. This morning, BTRTN handed out its awards for 2024/25:

Excerpts: "Our judges review thousands of nominations to cull the tastiest, most sublime examples of individuals saying the exact opposite of what they said months before, individuals taking actions that are precisely in opposition to stances previously held, and leaders shamelessly debasing themselves by abandoning stances they had once embraced as principles. This year, we include all-new categories — business, media, global leaders – and we are forced to acknowledge that some of this past year’s most seismic examples of hypocrisy were perpetrated by Democrats...

"Let our awards begin with our all-new multi-party, multi-branch, multi-ugly category: ”Pardon My Hypocrisy”: Joe Biden, Mike Johnson, and Donald Trump...

In the article, BTRTN explains why the awards are named for Lindsey Graham, then awards 12 "Grahammys," one "Grand Grahammy," and its Second "Lifetime Achievement Award."

1. Very clever - but this year's hypocrisy is only getting started for the Repukes

They're picking winners now, but it's going to get so much worse. BTRTN should hold off and give awards at the END of 2025.

3. Thank you for posting reggieandlee. Some "Lindsey Grahammy" winners caused irreparable damage to the American people.

FTA:

Joe Biden took a big hit in the United States for his unqualified support for Israel following the October 7 terrorist attack by Hamas. Biden stood his ground as Israel’s invasion of Gaza resulted in 46,000 deaths and 110,000 injured. Biden pressured Netanyahu to ease the intensity of Israel’s assault by forbidding the use of 20,000 pound “bunker buster” bombs on the city of Rafa. Biden spent his last year and three months in office trying to pressure Netanyahu to agree to a cease fire.

Netanyahu’s refusal to accede to Biden’s wishes – even as Biden continued to offer comprehensive financial and military support — embarrassed Biden, and his support among Muslims and young people eroded. Netanyahu, claiming that he would never waver on a wide variety of issues, refused to agree to a cease fire in Gaza.

Until Donald Trump told him to. It has been widely reported that Netanyahu dropped many of his conditions for the cease fire when Trump sent him a message to agree to a cease fire before Inauguration Day.

Now we know that Bibi Netanyahu wanted Donald Trump to win the election, and he did what he could do to tip the scales of the election to Trump.

With friends like that… hey, give the man his statuette.

Hamas-hatred and Islamophobia (1.1% of the US population) really helped the hardworking American taxpayer and the Democratic Party in 2024. I'm sure Kamala Harris and Joe Biden will remain good friends with Bibi in the future.


Two ethnic-cleansers, both indicted across several jurisdictions, never to see one day in prison anywhere.
