Joe Biden’s Executive Order on Voting Tells Agencies To Push Vote-by-Mail, ‘Combat Misinformation’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden issued an executive order on “access to voting” on Sunday that instructs federal government agencies to promote voter registration, help Americans apply to vote by mail, and “combat misinformation,” among other measures. . .

One provision states: “It is the responsibility of the Federal Government to expand access to, and education about, voter registration and election information, and to combat misinformation, in order to enable all eligible Americans to participate in our democracy.”

Legitimate (and accurate) news stories on the business dealings of Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, were suppressed by social media companies and mainstream media outlets during the 2020 election under the guise of fighting such “misinformation.”

The list of measures in the Executive Order parallels those included in Democrats’ legislation, H.R. 1, the “For the People Act,” which intends to override state measures that bolster ballot integrity. H.R. 1 recently passed the Democrat-run House. (Read more from “Joe Biden’s Executive Order on Voting Tells Agencies To Push Vote-by-Mail, ‘Combat Misinformation’” HERE)

Trump SLAMS ‘Spiraling Tsunami’ at Mexico Border; Here’s How the White House Responded (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By WND. Amid a surge of migrant families and unaccompanied children, former President Trump on Friday issued a statement scolding President Biden for a “spiraling tsunami” at the border.

“Our border is now totally out of control thanks to the disastrous leadership of Joe Biden,” Trump said. “Our great Border Patrol and ICE agents have been disrespected, demeaned, and mocked by the Biden Administration. A mass incursion into the country by people who should not be here is happening on an hourly basis, getting worse by the minute.” . . .

“The spiraling tsunami at the border is overwhelming local communities, depleting budgets, crowding hospitals, and taking jobs from legal American workers,” he said.

Trump said that when he left office, his administration “had achieved the most secure border in our country’s history.”

“Under Biden, it will soon be worse, more dangerous, and more out of control than ever before. He has violated his oath of office to uphold our Constitution and enforce our laws,” he said. (Read more from “Trump SLAMS ‘Spiraling Tsunami’ at Mexico Border” HERE)

Trump Says Southern Border Is ‘Out of Control’ on Biden’s Watch — White House Shoots Down His Criticism

By Daily Caller. Former President Donald Trump criticized President Joe Biden’s immigration policies in a lengthy statement published Friday afternoon. . .

White House press secretary Jen Psaki dismissed Trump’s criticism out of hand at Friday’s briefing.

“We don’t take our advice or counsel from former President Trump on immigration policy,” she told CBS’ Weijia Jiang. “We’re going to chart our own path forward, and that includes treating children with humanity and respect and ensuring their safety when they cross our borders.”

Biden Administration Refuses To Say Middle East Militias Are Iran-Backed

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s Pentagon press secretary John Kirby refused to link Iran to Shia militias operating in Iraq that launch frequent attacks on U.S. troops and other allies in the region.

Speaking to reporters Wednesday after an attack on Iraq’s Ain al-Asad Airbase, where an American contractor died of a heart attack this week, Kirby refused to say the Shia Iraqi militias, which likely carried out the strike, were aligned with Iran.

“When you say Shia-backed militias, do you mean Shia militias or Iran-backed?” one reporter asked to clarify during Wednesday’s briefing.

“I mean Shia-backed militias,” Kirby said. (Read more from “Biden Administration Refuses To Say Middle East Militias Are Iran-Backed” HERE)

Former Green Beret: Joe Biden Hasn’t Found Country He Doesn’t ‘Want To Give Trillions To or Invade’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Former Green Beret and Gold Star husband Joe Kent told Breitbart News there is a sharp divide between America First principles and the actions of the Joe Biden administration.

Kent is challenging incumbent U.S. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-WA) in a primary after Beutler joined 9 other Republicans and the Democrats in impeaching former President Donald Trump in January.

Kent said after nearly two decades of “almost continuous combat” and the loss of his wife, Navy Senior Chief Petty Officer Shannon Kent, to a suicide bomber while she was deployed in 2019 to Syria fighting ISIS, President Trump appealed to him because Trump contrasted the “rhetoric of both parties on why we needed to stay deeply involved in the Middle East and in these wars that never seem to benefit us.”

He argued the U.S. was involved in wars because “our elected leaders had too much hubris to say that they had gotten it wrong and they continued to double and triple down” on failure.

“President Trump’s foreign policy ties directly into his domestic policy getting us to a point where we are energy independent here makes it so that we don’t need to be involved in these endless wars in the Middle East,” Kent said.

Joe Biden’s Cringe-Worthy Remarks About Indian-Americans

/1 Comment/in , /by

It’s not the worst thing on the record, but Joe Biden just needs to stick to the script. I mean, he’s already having difficulty with that, so let’s not overwhelm him. And it doesn’t help that it was an awkward moment with an ethnic group he’s denigrated before. The president said that Indian Americans are taking over the country during a call with NASA scientists who successfully landed a rover on Mars (via Washington Examiner):

President Biden quipped that Americans of Indian descent are taking over the country during a call to congratulate NASA scientists and engineers, led by Swati Mohan, whose team successfully landed the Perseverance rover on Mars.

Biden was quick to put his words in the context of celebrating the diversity of America, but the line could be added to the 78-year-old’s list of awkward comments.

Perseverance traveled about 300 million miles before landing on Mars two weeks ago as part of a study to establish whether the planet ever hosted life.

The president, who has had a career of verbal slips and a tendency to speak in a folksy manner, spoke to the team behind the Mars mission in a video conference call on Thursday evening.

GOP Grills Biden Nominee for Top Defense Post

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republicans on the Senate Armed Services Committee hammered President Joe Biden’s nominee for a top Pentagon post over his support for the Iranian nuclear deal, his criticism of the U.S. embassy’s move to Jerusalem, and his history of “inflammatory” comments against Republicans and members of Congress on Twitter.

Republican members on Thursday cited numerous heated public statements by Colin Kahl, a former Obama State Department official whom Biden tapped for undersecretary of defense for policy, including some of his Twitter posts reported by the Washington Free Beacon on Thursday.

In one tweet, Kahl called the Republicans “the party of ethnic cleansing,” and in another he claimed that critics of the Iran deal “won’t be satisfied until they get the war they’ve pushed for decades.” Kahl’s Twitter feed includes numerous barbs at individual Republican senators, as well as the party as a whole, which he described in 2017 as “a clown show.”

Sen. Jim Inhofe (R., Okla.), the ranking member on the committee, said, “What concerns me here is that hyper-partisanship, especially in regards to our national security, is inappropriate for a position of undersecretary of defense for policy.”

Kahl apologized during the hearing for some of his Twitter posts, calling them “disrespectful.” (Read more from “GOP Grills Biden Nominee for Top Defense Post” HERE)

Veeps Emerge for a 2024 Trump Ticket That Could Reshape Republican Party

/1 Comment/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump is barely out of the White House, let alone declaring he will actually run for a second term. Yet, the starting gun was seemingly fired this week on the race to become the former president’s running mate in 2024, with advisers suggesting his best chance of reclaiming the office resides in choosing a black or female sidekick.

Trump’s spokesman was quick to deny that any such conversations are taking place at his post-presidential Mar-a-Lago residence, but the speculation will fuel a long-running conversation about how the Republican Party adapts to the country’s changing demographics and broadens its support.

“If Trump runs, whoever he picks as VP is going to have a claim on the presidential nomination in 2028,” said Robert Shapiro, professor of politics at Columbia University. “They’d be picking the next leader of the Republican Party, and it certainly makes sense from a demographic standpoint to pick a woman or a minority.” . . .

On Wednesday, Bloomberg reported that close advisers were telling Trump to exclude Pence from a possible 2024 ticket. Instead, they raised the possibility of a black or female vice president, with two backing South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, who is popular with the Trump base.

A day earlier, Trump endorsed South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott’s reelection. He is the only black Republican in the Senate. (Read more from “Veeps Emerge for a 2024 Trump Ticket That Could Reshape Republican Party” HERE)

CEO of CNN’s Parent Company Caught Boasting COVID-19 Has Been ‘Really Good for Ratings’

/1 Comment/in , /by

The CEO of WarnerMedia, parent company of CNN, recently bragged to attendees at a virtual tech conference that the coronavirus pandemic has been “really good” for the left-leaning network’s “ratings.”

Jason Kilar reportedly made the incredible comments during a keynote address at Morgan Stanley’s Technology, Media and Telecom Conference, according to Wall Street media reporter Joe Flint. . .

In his tweet, Flint cautioned Kilar to be careful, warning him that his comments came off similarly to remarks made by CBS executive Leslie Moonves back in 2016, when Moonves said, Trump’s presidency “may not be good for America, but it’s damn good for CBS.”

Lawmakers Voting To Strip Cuomo’s COVID Powers Amid Recent Scandals

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Democratic-led New York state Legislature is expected to pass a measure today that will neuter Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s emergency powers — granted last year to manage the coronavirus pandemic — in a bid to take back some control from a governor facing spiraling twin scandals involving nursing home deaths and sexual harassment allegations.

The state’s top Democrats after Cuomo — state Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins (D-Westchester) and Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie (D-The Bronx) — scheduled a special session for Friday morning at 10 a.m. to pass a bill that will strip the governor of his ability to issue executive orders tied to the coronavirus state of emergency.

The legislation would ban Cuomo from creating any new directives without the Legislature’s OK, and would bar the extension of any existing directives unless deemed “critical to public health.

The measure would take effect immediately once Cuomo signs it — which he indicated he was willing to do during a Tuesday press conference where he signaled he “agreed” with the lawmakers’ plans. (Read more from “Lawmakers Voting To Strip Cuomo’s COVID Powers Amid Recent Scandals” HERE)

Ebay Cancels Dr. Seuss Books as ‘Offensive Material’

/1 Comment/in , /by

The result of canceling six books by the iconic Dr. Seuss because they were deemed racist or insensitive was predictable, with copies selling for as much as $630 on eBay. . .

That’s when eBay banned the books, citing the company’s “offensive materials” policy.

Earlier this week, Dr. Seuss Enterprises announced it would stop publishing “If I Ran the Zoo,” “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street,” “McElligot’s Pool,” “On Beyond Zebra!,” “Scrambled Eggs Super!” and “The Cat’s Quizzer.”

In addition, Biden removed any reference to Dr. Seuss from his proclamation Tuesday on “Read Across America Day,” which was created on the birthday of the late Dr. Seuss, whose real name was Theodor Seuss Geisel.

A copy of “If I Ran the Zoo” was attracting bids of up to $510 on eBay, and “The Cat’s Quizzer” was at $630. (Read more from “Ebay Cancels Dr. Seuss Books as ‘Offensive Material'” HERE)
