Jen Psaki’s Pivot on ‘Temporary’ Inflation Backfired (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , /by

. . .Last week, Jen Psaki tried to pivot on inflation, saying to watch the Fed regarding the forecasts (via Fox Business):

Psaki told reporters that gas prices are expected to continue surging in the coming months due in large part to the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine. Psaki communicated that White House experts expect the markets to eventually stabilize and inflation to slow, saying the energy crisis is only “temporary.”

No. First, this isn’t a Putin problem. Is it helping? Hell no. But inflation and gas prices were already rising well before Russian troops stormed into Ukraine. Voters know this. It’s another sign that Biden and his crew are surrounded by the facts and realities of their own incompetence. Second, there’s no need for the Fed assessment as Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the pain of inflation will last another year.

Talk about a backfire. I understand trying to shift and juke to escape a tackle, but to get pancaked by your own team? Biden’s crew is chucking all sorts of boomerangs to pass the buck on their stunning record of failure.

Major Company to Cover Travel Expenses for Employees Seeking an Abortion

/1 Comment/in , /by

American multinational investment bank Citigroup Inc., known as Citi, will reportedly cover travel expenses for U.S.-based employees seeking an abortion.

“In response to changes in reproductive healthcare laws in certain states in the U.S., beginning in 2022 we provide travel benefits to facilitate access to adequate resources,” Citi wrote in a filing for its shareholders meetings scheduled April 26.

Axios reported that the policy will cover travel expenses, including airfare and lodging, for staff who travel out-of-state to obtain an abortion. This comes as several states enact laws restricting access to abortion and as the Supreme Court weighs a case that could overturn the precedents set by Roe v. Wade.

‘The move [Citi’s policy] comes after Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) signed legislation last year that banned abortion after six weeks, making it one of the most restrictive abortion bans in the U.S.,” Axios noted. As I covered, Idaho lawmakers passed legislation this week mirroring the law in their state. The bill is headed to Republican Gov. Brad Little’s desk.

By Breitbart. First lady Jill Biden corrected her husband, President Joe Biden, on Tuesday after he mistakenly referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as the first lady.

The president confused the two women in his life during a speech at a Women’s History Month celebration at the White House.

“[T]here’s been a little change in the arrangement of who’s on the stage because of the first lady’s husband contracting COVID,” Biden said. . .

After Biden’s blunder, first lady Jill Biden interrupted the president to point out his mistake. . .

“You said the first — anyways,” his wife began before giving up as the crowd started laughing. (Read more from “Jill Biden Corrects Joe After He Calls Kamala the First Lady” HERE)

Now-Deleted Harris Tweet Claimed US Is Supporting Ukraine ‘in Defense of the NATO Alliance’

By Fox News. A social media account for Vice President Kamala Harris stated Tuesday in a now-deleted tweet that the United States is supporting Ukraine “in defense of the NATO alliance,” which the Ukraine is not a part of.

“When I was in Poland, I met with U.S. and Polish service members, thanking them for standing with our NATO allies for freedom, peace, and security,” a tweet from the @KamalaHarris account stated. “The United States stands firmly with the Ukrainian people in defense of the NATO alliance.”

The remarks made in the tweet, which featured a photo of Harris greeting American and Polish service members, come on the heels of similar statements she made while addressing House Democrats over the weekend at the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) winter meeting in D.C.

“Russia’s invasion threatens not just Ukraine’s democracy, it threatens democracy and security across Europe,” Harris said. “So I will say what I know we all say, and I will say over and over again: The United States stands firmly with the Ukrainian people in defense of the NATO alliance.”

Those remarks prompted the White House to alter the transcript from the event, adding “[and]” to make it appear that she said the United States supports Ukraine and defends surrounding NATO countries.

Fertilizer Shortages Indicate an Even Bigger Crisis Is Looming

/0 Comments/in , /by

As inflation wholesale prices soar past 10 percent and gas prices continue to surge, economists and farmers across the country are warning about another looming crisis.

Farmers are seeing a fertilizer shortage. Combined with high water and fuel prices, costs are set to soar as food becomes less available.

From Market Watch:

Fertilizer prices were already running red hot this year before a European energy crisis fanned the flames, potentially adding to a pinch on farmers in the U.S. and around the world and stoking worries about food inflation.

“It’s almost like a perfect storm of different reasons that probably has a lot of upside in price for different macronutrients,” said Samuel Taylor, Cleveland-based executive director of research at Rabobank, in a phone interview.

Natural gas is a key ingredient in the process used to make nitrogen-based fertilizers used on a range of crops, including corn and wheat. Natural gas accounts for 75% to 90% of operating costs in the production of nitrogen, Taylor noted.

The Ukraine Crisis Is A Wake-up Call For Taiwan And Japan

/0 Comments/in , /by

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has raised the concern that China’s leader Xi Jinping may be emboldened to invade Taiwan soon. Such fear has shifted attitudes and strategic thinking in Taiwan and its ally Japan.

The last time Taiwan faced military assault by the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) was in 1958. On August 23, under Chairman Mao Zedong’s directive, the PLA heavily bombed Quemoy, Matsu, and other surrounding offshore islands. The PLA’s bombardment of Taiwan only stopped after the United States demonstrated its will to defend Taiwan by sending six aircraft carriers, three heavy cruisers, 40 destroyers, and two air force divisions to Taiwan strait.

Since then, the Taiwanese people have enjoyed several decades of peace and prosperity. The Chinese Communist Party changed tactics and had hoped that deepening economic ties between Taiwan and mainland China would eventually “reunite” Taiwan with the motherland peacefully. To the CCP’s disappointment, a poll shows that most Taiwanese don’t identify as Chinese.

China’s Xi Jinping vowed never to rule out taking Taiwan by force. The PLA has increased both the frequency and the number of fighter jets it sent near Taiwan’s air defense identification zone (ADIZ), hoping to intimidate the Taiwanese people. Still, most Taiwanese didn’t take Beijing’s military threat seriously until Russia invaded Ukraine. (Read more from “The Ukraine Crisis Is a Wake-up Call for Taiwan and Japan” HERE)

Elon Musk Mocks People Who Support Ukraine and Transgender Rights

/0 Comments/in , /by

In one of a series of late night tweets early on Monday morning, the SpaceX and Tesla CEO posted a meme that appears to mock people who speak out in support transgender people and Ukrainians amid the Russian invasion.

“I support the current thing,” the meme, which features what is known as a “Wojack” or “Feels Guy,” reads. Behind the crudely-drawn meme man are a number of identity-based flags, including the lesbian flag colors and the new LGBTQ rainbow flag that prominently displays both the transgender flag colors alongside black and brown lines to symbolize Black and brown communities.

In front of the Wojack, of course, is the blue and gold of the Ukrainian flag, which many people who support the Ukrainians against the Russian invasion have used on social media to signify their solidarity.

Putin Told to Fire Nuclear Missile at Largest US Weapon Range as a ‘Warning’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A twisted Russian politician has urged Vladimir Putin to fire “a ballistic missile” at the largest weapons testing site in the US as a warning.

Yevgeny Alexeyevich Fyodorov – a deputy of Russia’s Duma – urged the despot to push the button and launch a missile at the Nevada test range as a warning because western leaders are assuming “Putin has no trump cards in his hand.”

Another of the “trump cards” he proposed was the bombing of laboratories belonging to the US armed forces.

Fyodorov believes that if Russia did strike its Cold War foe, the US wouldn’t retaliate, the Daily Star reports.

His comments are the most-recent in a long line of bizarre statements about US-Russia relations in recent years – including CIA assassination plots, rock music likened to “US-instigated sabotage” and a western-backed “revolution” that would lead to child sterilization and famine.

State Sues School Boards Association for Hiding Details About Biden’s War on Parents

/0 Comments/in , /by

The state of Missouri is asking a circuit court to intervene after the Missouri School Boards Association refused to hand over information about its role in the Biden administration’s “domestic terrorism” smear campaign against concerned parents.

Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt filed the lawsuit on Tuesday after the MSBA repeatedly failed to fulfill records requests related to the National School Boards Association’s attempt to solicit federal intervention to silence parents who want to hold school boards accountable.

The lawsuit claims that despite receiving multiple emails from the AG’s office and the public, who were disturbed by the Biden administration’s eagerness to target parents, the MSBA, which is funded largely by tax dollars and staffed by public officials to serve the community, knowingly violated the Missouri Sunshine Law by ignoring or denying these requests.

“Upon information and belief, MSBA has hidden its full knowledge of, and support for, the effort by the Biden Administration and NSBA to investigate parents as ‘domestic terrorists,’” the lawsuit states.

Evidence shows the MSBA executive director did receive correspondence about the effort to shut up community members who disagreed with school boards’ radical leftist agendas but the “quasi-public governmental body” feigned innocence when petitioned by the public.

Cancer Breakthrough: New Treatment Shown to ‘Eradicate Cancer in as Little as Six Days’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Bowel cancer is considered to be one of the “most common” cancer types, with 43,000 new cases being recorded in the UK each year. Depending on its exact location, bowel cancer is also called colon or rectal cancer. New research has identified a promising treatment that could help target this condition. . .

Bioengineers have proved they can “eradicate advanced stage” bowel and ovarian cancer in “as little as six days”.

Conducted on mice models, the treatment could be ready for human clinical trials later this year, according to the study. . .

Omid Veiseh, an assistant professor of bioengineering whose lab created the treatment, said: “We just administer once, but the drug factories keep making the dose every day, where it’s needed until the cancer is eliminated.

“Once we determined the correct dose – how many factories we needed – we were able to eradicate tumours in 100 percent of animals with ovarian cancer and in seven of eight animals with colorectal cancer.” (Read more from “Cancer Breakthrough: New Treatment Shown to ‘Eradicate Cancer in as Little as Six Days’” HERE)
