Biden’s Gaza Aid Scheme Raises Concerns Over U.S. Troop Safety

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s proposal to deploy U.S. troops to construct an artificial port for delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza has sparked concerns among experts, who argue that the plan puts American troops at risk for political reasons.

During his recent State of the Union address, Biden announced the intention to establish an artificial dock and pier system to facilitate the delivery of essential supplies to Gaza, which has been grappling with dire humanitarian conditions. However, questions have arisen regarding the administration’s strategy to ensure the safety of the approximately 1,000 U.S. troops involved in the mission.

Critics suggest that the Biden administration’s decision may be influenced by political considerations, particularly in response to pressure from segments of the Democratic Party critical of U.S. support for Israel amid the Israel-Hamas conflict. Concerns have been raised about the rushed nature of the plan and its potential implications for the safety and security of U.S. troops operating in a volatile region.

Experts have highlighted the risks associated with deploying troops to construct an artificial port in Gaza, including the threat of attacks from militant groups such as Hamas. The proximity of U.S. troops to potential conflict zones raises concerns about their vulnerability to missile attacks and other security threats.

Furthermore, questions have been raised about the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed aid delivery mechanism, particularly in light of logistical challenges and security considerations. The lack of clarity surrounding key aspects of the plan, such as the distribution of aid and coordination with local authorities, underscores the need for careful consideration and comprehensive planning.

Biden Administration Advocates for Ceasefire Resolution on Israel at UN, Russia and China Veto

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration’s efforts to secure a resolution urging a temporary ceasefire in Gaza were thwarted as Russia and China exercised their veto power.

The proposed resolution, aimed at pressuring Israel into accepting an immediate cessation of hostilities in Gaza, faced staunch opposition from Russia and China during the council’s deliberations. Despite efforts to garner international support for the measure, the resolution failed to pass, marking a significant setback in diplomatic efforts to address the ongoing conflict in the region.

According to reports from The Times of Israel, the resolution, which was put forward by the United States, sought to broker a ceasefire agreement as part of a broader initiative to facilitate negotiations between Israel and Hamas:

The United Nations Security Council on Friday failed to pass a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza as part of a hostage deal after Russia and China vetoed the measure proposed by the United States.

In response to the veto, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated his government’s commitment to taking decisive action against Hamas, with or without international support. Despite the setback at the Security Council, the Biden administration remains committed to finding a peaceful resolution to the conflict and has pledged to continue diplomatic efforts.

WH Responds to Illegal Alien Invasion by Blaming Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration has responded to the viral video showing a large group of illegal immigrants charging Texas National Guard troops at the U.S. southern border on Thursday, telling The Daily Caller that former President Donald Trump is to blame for the “chaos.”

Video captured by The New York Post showed dozens of migrants overrunning National Guard troops who were stationed at the border in El Paso, Texas. The Post reported that around 600 migrants were illegally trying to enter the U.S. when the group of what appeared to be all men broke through razor wire and began shoving the soldiers. . .

“When the former President told Congressional Republicans to block the bipartisan border security agreement – he said to blame him for it. Well he got his wish, and the result was chaos after Governor Abbott’s Operational Lone Star and razorwire were overrun yesterday,” the statement added. “While we cannot comment on individual cases, anyone who does not have a legal basis to remain in the United States is promptly removed.”

Last month, House Republicans rejected a bill pushed by President Joe Biden and approved by the Senate that aimed to address certain border security issues. The Republicans’ rejection of the legislation came after Trump said “Only a fool, or a Radical Left Democrat” would vote for the bill.

French Senators Call For Ban On Child Transgender Medical Services

/1 Comment/in , /by

A group of senators in France is calling for a ban on transgender medical services for children.

Led by Senator Jacqueline Eustache-Brinio of the French political party, The Republicans, the group released a report Tuesday sounding the alarm about children receiving puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and gender surgeries which can mean double mastectomies and genital surgery.

The lengthy 340-page report calls medically transitioning minors “one of the greatest ethical scandals in the history of medicine” and accuses transgender activists of pushing medical gender transition on children through aggressive social media campaigns.

France’s High Authority of Health is expected to make a recommendation on transgender medical services for minors soon, the European Conservative reported.

However, the French senators see the issue as urgent and said they plan to propose a bill before the summer to ban puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and gender surgeries for minors being treated for “gender dysphoria.”

Motion Filed by Greene to Remove Speaker Johnson Following Approval of Mega Spending Legislation in House

/0 Comments/in , /by

Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene filed a motion to oust Speaker Mike Johnson on Friday after the House passed a $1.2 trillion spending bill that includes dozens of left-wing earmarks but no Republican voters’ priorities. Greene urged Johnson not to allow the bill a floor vote, calling it a “complete departure” from the party’s core values.

“No Republican in the House of Representatives in good conscience can vote for this bill. It is a complete departure from all of our principles, especially if you call yourself ‘pro-life’,” Green said on the House floor.

“This is not a Republican bill. This is a Chuck Schumer Democrat-controlled bill coming from the House majority that is supposed to be controlled by Republicans, but yet our majority has been completely handed over to Democrats,” Greene continued.

The 1,012-page bill passed the House 286-134, with 101 Republicans voting yes.

House Republicans Investigate CIA Interference in Hunter Biden Investigation

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Republicans are demanding answers from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) after a whistleblower came forward with allegations of agency interference to thwart investigations into Hunter Biden.

On Thursday, the GOP chairmen of the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees sent CIA Director William Burns a letter seeking records related to claims the CIA acted with the Department of Justice to protect President Joe Biden and his son.

“The information we recently received from the whistleblower seems to corroborate our concerns about DOJ’s deviations from standard process to provide Hunter Biden with preferential treatment,” lawmakers wrote. “According to the whistleblower, in August 2021, when IRS investigators were preparing to interview Patrick Kevin Morris, an associate of Hunter Biden, the CIA intervened to stop the interview.”

“Two DOJ officials were allegedly summoned to CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia for a briefing regarding Mr. Morris,” lawmakers added. “At that meeting, it was communicated that Mr. Morris could not be a witness during the investigation.”

Army Seeking Retirees to Come back to Work Amid Manpower Crisis

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Army is seeking to bring back retired soldiers to fill critical manpower shortages, according to a service-wide directive published this week.

The All Army Activities (ALARACT) document describes how Army retirees can find and apply for open positions and aims to maintain a sufficient number of personnel to fill all of the Army’s authorized positions. The message comes as the service has publicly acknowledged struggles to balance a shrinking workforce with the demands of sprawling global mission sets as recruitment woes persist for a third year in a row.

“A review of commands’ requests for [the] fill of authorized personnel vacancies, in conjunction with current Army manning guidance, prompted review of how the Army can fill key and critical position vacancies,” the document stated, outlining the current situation. “The retiree recall program can be an effective tool to fill personnel shortages of authorized regular Army vacancies that are considered key and essential.”

It was unclear whether the Army had already identified manning shortages to be filled or was issuing the message in anticipation of future need. The Army did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s comments by deadline.

Any Army, Reserve or National Guard soldier who qualifies as retired or will soon be retired — meaning they achieved at least 20 years of service — and anyone receiving retired pay is eligible to apply, the message states. Neither age nor disability, alone, would exclude a soldier from joining depending on the disability, and they would still have to meet the Army’s health requirements.

‘My Head Started Hurting’: 12-Year-Old Mistakenly Served Alcohol at Outback Steakhouse

/0 Comments/in , /by

A 12-year-old boy in Livonia, Michigan, accidentally consumed an alcoholic drink at an Outback Steakhouse and went to the hospital as a result.

The boy, identified as Mekyle Cureton, visits the restaurant often and always orders a virgin strawberry daiquiri, Fox 2 reported Tuesday.

However, on his most recent visit, the drink did not taste as it had in the past because it had rum in it.

“My head started hurting when I was leaving and my heart started beating as I was drinking it,” Cureton explained.

The Queen Bee Mixology website lists the ingredients of its strawberry daiquiri recipe as white rum, lime juice, simple syrup, strawberry puree, and frozen strawberries. (Read more from “‘My Head Started Hurting’: 12-Year-Old Mistakenly Served Alcohol at Outback Steakhouse” HERE)

INVASION: Video Shows Illegal Aliens Overwhelming Texas National Guard, Storming Border Wall; Biden Slammed

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. Video taken near El Paso, Texas, shows illegal immigrants tearing down a barrier and overwhelming members of the Texas National Guard as they stormed across the border.

The illegal immigrants are seen pulling the barrier open as four National Guardsmen try to keep them from crossing the border in the video posted to Twitter on Thursday by former Daily Caller News Foundation reporter Jennie Taer, who now works for the New York Post. The illegal immigrants rush through the gap opened, almost trampling the National Guard personnel, until coming up against a second, sturdier barrier.

Texas has been clashing with the Biden administration over the state’s efforts to stop illegal immigration, with the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit placing legislation that would allow state and local law enforcement to arrest illegal immigrants on hold.

Biden Slammed After Hundreds of Illegal Aliens Attack National Guard Troops at Border

By Daily Wire. President Joe Biden faced backlash Thursday afternoon after video went viral online showing hundreds of military-aged males pushing Texas National Guard soldiers and storming the U.S. southern border.

The New York Post, which recorded video of the incident, reported that the illegal aliens broke through razor wire and fencing and then pushed straight through the soldiers.

Governor Greg Abbott gave a brief update about the incident in El Paso a few hours after video of the incident garnered millions of views online.

“The TX National Guard & Dept. of Public Safety quickly regained control & are redoubling the razor wire barriers,” Abbott said. “DPS is instructed to arrest every illegal immigrant involved for criminal trespass & destruction of property.”

Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin said that Texas law enforcement officials told him that the group consisted of “several hundred illegal aliens, mostly single adult men who rushed the soldiers, and one has been arrested so far for assaulting a soldier.” (Read more from “Biden Slammed After Hundreds of Illegal Aliens Attack National Guard Troops at Border” HERE)
