Governor Hits Back After Biden Criticism: ‘What Else Has He Forgotten?’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) smacked down President Joe Biden after the president sarcastically responded to the Florida governor’s criticism, slamming the 78-year-old president for forgetting the crisis on the southern border, inflation, and the Constitution itself.

“I guess I’m not surprised that Biden doesn’t remember me,” DeSantis said. “I guess the question is, is what else has he forgotten? Biden’s forgotten our crisis at the southern border, I can tell you that.”

DeSantis continued, painting a stark difference between himself and Biden:

Biden has forgotten about the inflation that’s biting the budgets of families all throughout our country. Biden has forgotten about the demonstrators who were fighting for freedom down in Cuba. Biden’s even forgotten about the Constitution itself, as we saw what he did with this moratorium.

And I can just tell you, I’m the governor who protects parents and their ability to make the right choices for their kids’ education. I’m the governor who protects the jobs and education and businesses in Florida by not letting the federal government lock us down.

Florida Education Officials Hash Out Ways to Punish Schools That Mandate Masks

By Washington Examiner. Florida education officials on Friday are holding an emergency meeting to discuss freeing up private-school vouchers for families that want to transfer their children out of public schools that impose mask mandates.

The last-minute meeting was scheduled after Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis ordered the State Board of Education to come up with ways to punish school districts that are expected to mandate masks in classrooms.

DeSantis, who received the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine in the spring, has been very vocal about his anti-mask stance, even as COVID-19 cases in his state continue to soar. There have been 12,000 coronavirus hospitalizations in Florida this week alone, shattering the previous record. . .

Despite the increase, when it comes to masks in the classroom, DeSantis said he sees it as a violation of parental rights. He also has cited Florida’s new Parents’ Bill of Rights law that gives guardians the freedom to make decisions about their child’s health and education.

Jan. 6 Select Panel Takes Over House Probe of Trump DOJ

/0 Comments/in , /by

A key House committee has postponed multiple scheduled witness interviews about Donald Trump’s final days in office, handing them off to the select panel investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.

“As the Oversight Committee continues its crucial oversight work, we look forward to the Select Committee fully exposing the former president’s unconstitutional attacks on our democracy and attempts to stay in power after the American people voted him out of office,” House Oversight Committee Chair Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) said in a statement to POLITICO Thursday.

An aide to the Jan. 6 panel, speaking on condition of anonymity, did not dispute the handoff and added that the select committee would announce “additional actions” later.

The movement of those interviews with former Justice Department aides marks an abrupt change in House Democrats’ investigations of the end of Trump’s presidency. That shift underscores the growing importance of the select committee’s work as it readies its next steps with a political spotlight on Chair Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and the panel’s two anti-Trump Republicans, Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois. The consolidation of the probes could also allow House Democrats to prevent any overlap in the investigation into Trump’s attempts to overturn the election.

DOJ Uses Scare Quotes to Threaten State Election Integrity Efforts

/0 Comments/in , /by

Joe Biden’s Department of Justice is using scare quotes in a new guidance that it has issued to threaten state election integrity efforts.

The guidance repeatedly refers to post-election “audits,” using the quotes to suggest that’s not what they really are.

And it lists a number of examples of illegal activities – although it does not connect those with the Arizona election audit that has been going on for some months already, or the other states that are considering them.

The recounts and reviews of election results from the 2020 presidential race were triggered by evidence that suggested fraud or manipulation. Multiple legacy media outlet fact-checkers have said there was absolutely no inappropriate behavior in the election.

But it’s not even contested that there were outside influences, that leftist Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook handed over some $350 million to mostly leftist elections officials to help them “run” the 2020 count. Further, multiple state officials arbitrarily changed state voting laws and procedures to accommodate COVID conditions, even though the Constitution limits those who can make those changes to state lawmakers.

Pediatricians Slam Effort to Remove Sex Markers From Birth Certificates

/0 Comments/in , /by

The American Medical Association is receiving condemnation from the American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds) following a recommendation that sex markers be removed from children’s birth certificates.

In a statement released Thursday via Twitter, ACPeds said, ”The AMA is receiving warranted criticism after it called for removing sex markers on birth certificates, with an advisory committee arguing that their inclusion ‘perpetuates a view that [sex] is immutable.'”

”Identifying sex in the public portion of the birth certificate affirms the scientific fact that sex is an innate and immutable binary trait of public significance; a trait determined by genetics at fertilization,” wrote Dr. Michelle Cretella, ACPeds executive director. She and Dr. Michael Artigues authored the organization’s position paper titled ”Sex is a Biological Trait of Medical Significance.” (Read more from “Pediatricians Slam Effort to Remove Sex Markers From Birth Certificates” HERE)

Biden May Withhold Funds From Companies That Don’t Force Vaccination on Employees

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration is considering using federal regulatory powers and the threat of withholding federal funds from institutions to push more Americans to get vaccinated — a huge potential shift in the fight against the virus and a far more muscular approach to getting shots into arms, according to four people familiar with the deliberations.

The effort could apply to institutions as varied as long-term-care facilities, cruise ships and universities, potentially impacting millions of Americans, according to the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive conversations.

The conversations are in the early phases and no firm decisions have been made, the people said. One outside lawyer in touch with the Biden administration on the issue is recommending that the president use federal powers sparingly.

Pelosi ‘Confident’ Democrats Will Keep House in 2022

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, dismissing poll numbers warning of a GOP takeover in 2022, said she believes Democrats will hold on to the majority.

“I’m very confident that we will win the House,” Pelosi told reporters on Friday. House Republicans would need to net about five seats in the 435-member chamber to reclaim the majority the party lost in 2018.

The California Democrat dismissed warnings from internal pollsters that the party would lose the House if the election were held now.

The dismal analysis was presented to Democratic lawmakers by the head of the House Democratic campaign arm, Rep. Sean Maloney of New York, according to Politico.

According to the polling, only 42% of likely voters in key swing districts trust Democrats to handle the economy. (Read more from “Pelosi ‘Confident’ Democrats Will Keep House in 2022” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Speaking to reporters at the White House Thursday afternoon, President Joe Biden again admitted his recent directive for the Centers for Disease Control to issue a 60-day eviction moratorium extension — an ongoing attack on private property owners — is likely unconstitutional. Regardless of its illegality, he’s doing it anyway.

President Biden Extends Moratorium on Student Loans to 2022

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden has extended the moratorium on student loan repayment, interest and collection until January 2022, the Department of Education announced Friday.

The White House has confirmed that this will be the final extension, having had a moratorium in place since the earliest days of the pandemic under former President Donald Trump.

“The payment pause has been a lifeline that allowed millions of Americans to focus on their families, health, and finances instead of student loans during the national emergency,” Education Secretary Miguel Cardona said in a statement provided by the White House. “As our nation’s economy continues to recover from a deep hole, this final extension will give students and borrowers the time they need to plan for restart and ensure a smooth pathway back to repayment.”

“It is the Department’s priority to support students and borrowers during this transition and ensure they have the resources they need to access affordable, high quality higher education,” Cardona finished. (Read more from “President Biden Extends Moratorium on Student Loans to 2022” HERE)

‘New Rule?’ Only Kids Wearing Masks at White House Photo Op, Biden Finds Little Girl to Breathe On (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

As President Joe Biden signed a bill awarding congressional gold medals to police officers who responded to the January 6 Capitol riot, children were in attendance for a photo-op and they were strangely the only ones wearing masks outside.

The masks were not the only odd thing at the ceremony.

Biden singled out and called over a little girl while he was preparing to sign the bill, getting close and personal with the child as he did so. Many noted the child looked extremely uncomfortable, with social media comments reacting to the “creepy” and “uncomfortable” visual.

The whole scene was strange and disturbing. Evidently, the confusing mask mandates at the White House are still ever-changing. It appears the children were wearing masks because they are still too young to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and the adults did not wear masks because they have already been inoculated.

Report: Families Affected by 9/11 Ask Biden Not to Come to Memorial Events

/0 Comments/in , /by

A group of families of victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, along with survivors and first responders, will issue a statement Friday asking President Joe Biden not to attend memorial events unless he releases classified information, according to NBC News.

The group, numbering nearly 1,800, is requesting Biden skip events commemorating the 20th anniversary of the tragedy unless he declassify documents they believe demonstrate the involvement of Saudi officials in the attacks, NBC News reported. The Bush, Obama and Trump administrations each declined to declassify the information.

“Since the conclusion of the 9/11 Commission in 2004 much investigative evidence has been uncovered implicating Saudi government officials in supporting the attacks,” the group said in the statement, according to NBC.

“Through multiple administrations, the Department of Justice and the FBI have actively sought to keep this information secret and prevent the American people from learning the full truth about the 9/11 attacks,” the group said.
