Liar, Liar: Joe Biden Claims He Spoke With Ron DeSantis ‘Four or Five Times’ on Hurricane Response

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden claimed Thursday he spoke with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) about the federal government response to Hurricane Ian “four or five times” after initially resisting calling the governor personally.

The White House spent most of Tuesday defending the president for resisting making a personal phone call to DeSantis prior to the storm, despite previously doing so for other governors facing damaging hurricanes.

DeSantis told reporters Tuesday evening he had not heard from Biden personally, but that he would be “happy to brief the President if he’s interested in hearing what we’re doing in Florida.”

White House Gaslights Reporters After Biden Searches Crowd for Dead Congresswoman: ‘Not All that Unusual’

By Breitbart. The White House on Wednesday refused to acknowledge President Joe Biden’s brain freeze moment after he searched for a dead member of congress during an event on fighting hunger.

“Jackie are you here? Where’s Jackie?” Biden asked looking out at the audience after naming and thanking members of both parties who helped work on the event.

Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-IN) died in a tragic car accident in August.

But White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to explain why Biden said what he did, after video of the moment went viral on social media.

“The president was naming the congressional champions on this issue and was acknowledging her incredible work,” she said during the daily press briefing at the White House.

Another Poll Reveals Majority of Americans Have Doubts About Biden’s Mental Fitness

By Townhall. President Joe Biden has suffered from multiple embarrassing gaffes throughout his short time in office, making Americans question whether Biden is mentally fit enough to run the country.

A recent Harvard/Harris poll found that 56 percent of Americans “have doubts” about Biden’s mental capabilities to serve as President of the U.S., while 63 percent of people said that Biden is “too old” to be in charge of the White House. . .

This comes as our President, the President of the United States, repeatedly called on a dead congresswoman during an event addressing hunger.

Indiana Congresswoman Jackie Walorski died in a car accident just last month, which seemed to have slipped Biden’s mind.

“Jackie are you here? Where’s Jackie?” Biden asked, drawing major criticism for the major mistake. (Read more from “Another Poll Reveals Majority of Americans Have Doubts About Biden’s Mental Fitness” HERE)

Most Fear ‘1930s-Like Depression’: Rasmussen Poll

/0 Comments/in , /by

Voters see no end to the economic destruction under President Joe Biden, with most now predicting a 1930s-style Great Depression.

In the latest Rasmussen Reports survey, 57% said that they believe the United States will enter a “1930s-like Depression” soon, including 21% who think a depression is “very likely.” Just 32% don’t think the downturn will end that badly.

The new survey is the latest warning sign to the White House and the Democrats eyeing a 2024 presidential bid. Most respondents have said in recent polls that they believe the nation is on the wrong track, but a depression is a whole different game.

Just today, noted investor Stanley Druckenmiller said he believes the Federal Reserve’s aggressive tightening measures will put the U.S. economy into a recession. (Read more from “Most Fear ‘1930s-Like Depression’: Rasmussen Poll” HERE)

DeSantis Fires Back at Biden After No Contact Before Hurricane Hits: ‘We Don’t Have Time for Pettiness’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) slammed President Joe Biden during a press conference Tuesday as the state prepares to be hit by a category 3 hurricane.

The remarks from DeSantis come after Biden held separate calls earlier in the day with Mayor Jane Castor of Tampa, Mayor Ken Welch of St. Petersburg, and Mayor Frank Hibbard of Clearwater. An official White House readout of the calls made no mention of the president speaking with DeSantis.

A reporter asked the governor how he would characterize his conversations with Biden as the hurricane prepares to make landfall.

“So I have not personally spoken with the president, but FEMA has approved our pre-landfall request,” DeSantis said.

“We feel like we have a good relationship with FEMA,” he continued. “You know, I’m happy to brief the president if he’s interested in hearing what we’re doing in Florida, you know, my view on all this is like you got people’s lives at stake, you got their property at stake, and we don’t have time for pettiness. We got to work together to make sure we’re doing the best job for them.”

Grocery Shop With Me to Fact-Check Biden’s Inflation up ‘Hardly at All’ Claim

/0 Comments/in , /by

By now you’ve no doubt heard about President Joe Biden’s interview with “60 Minutes” in which he declared the pandemic “over” and said unequivocally that, “yes,” the United States will come to Taiwan’s defense whenever China attacks. He also made some dubious claims about inflation. . .

I went to the grocery store and ran some numbers, and I too was shocked by what I found. . .

While doing some personal shopping, I took inventory of basic items (universal brands if the store had them), some of which were “on sale.” I documented each item’s regular price. Then, using data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), I cross-referenced those prices with grocery costs during a comparable time in recent memory: the last midterms in 2018 under President Donald Trump — a year and a half into the presidency and during a time of strong political incentives to keep Americans happy. . .

Let’s start with breakfast, as you do. In September 2018, bacon cost $5.50 per pound, according to BLS averages. Today, those delicious piggy strips will run you about $7.99 per pound for your run-of-the-mill brand. . .

Milk is even worse. In 2018, one gallon of whole milk cost $2.98. Now, the grocery store’s off-brand milk costs $4.89, a price increase of almost 70 percent. (Read more from “Grocery Shop With Me to Fact-Check Biden’s Inflation up ‘Hardly at All’ Claim” HERE)

Here’s How Much Joe Biden’s Student Loan Cancellations Cost

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration’s plan to cancel student debt is estimated by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to cost the U.S. federal government over $400 billion over the next 30 years.

Biden’s plan, announced in August, involves providing up to $10,000 in debt relief to borrowers who earn less than $125,000 per year, or $20,000 in debt relief to Pell Grant recipients who meet similar income standards. An application to receive the benefit is expected in early October.

“As of June 30, 2022, 43 million borrowers held $1.6 trillion in federal student loans. About $430 billion of that debt will be canceled, CBO estimates,” CBO Director Phillip Swagel told Republican lawmakers in a letter on Monday (pdf), in response to a request for figures.

“In its May 2022 baseline, CBO projected that for many borrowers in income-driven repayment plans, a portion of the amounts canceled through executive action would eventually be forgiven anyway,” he added. “CBO also projected that many borrowers in fixed-length repayment plans would accrue and pay interest on the principal amounts canceled through executive action. Because of the executive action, those borrowers will now pay less in principal and interest than the amounts estimated in the baseline.” (Read more from “Here’s How Much Joe Biden’s Student Loan Cancellations Cost” HERE)

Obama Says Racism Reason Why Americans Oppose Biden’s Open Borders

/0 Comments/in , /by

Americans oppose President Joe Biden’s lawless and wage-cutting mass migration because they are racist, not because of their economic worries, according to former President Barack Obama.

“Right now, the biggest fuel behind the Republican agenda is related to immigration and the fear that somehow America’s character is going to be changed if, people of darker shades, there are too many of them here,” Obama told a meeting of Hispanic realtors on September 25 in San Diego, California.

Obama used his divide-and-rule claims of racism to hide the public opposition to migration’s economic impact, according to his comments posted in a September 25 report by the San Diego Union-Tribune:

I wish I could be more euphemistic about it except [they’re] not that subtle about it — they’re just kind of saying it,” Obama said. “You hear it on hard-right media, you hear it from candidates and politicians, you hear things like ‘great replacement theory’ — I mean, this is not subtle. Unless we’re able to return to a more inclusive vision inside the Republican Party, it’s going to be hard to get a bill done.

This Senator Wants to Know Why Pro-Lifers Are Held to an Unequal Standard by Biden’s DOJ

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Department of Justice (DOJ) under President Joe Biden has not only gone after former President Donald Trump, who may be a political rival once more in 2024, but ordinary citizens as well. As Sarah covered over the weekend, the FBI raided the home of and arrested Mark Houck for allegedly violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. The raid came in the early morning hours of last Friday, as Houck’s wife and seven children watched in horror. The details keep getting worse, too, with the raid adding insult to injury considering Houck was already going to have turned himself in.

Houck, however, does appear to have support from Republican members of Congress though. On Monday, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), who has been tweeting and retweeting his outrage about Houck’s arrest, sent a letter addressed to Attorney General Merrick Garland inquiring about the tactics employed.

Ex-Clinton Adviser Predicts Dems Will ‘Dump’ Biden in Favor of Hillary in 2024

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democrats plan to “dump” President Biden and call on Hillary Clinton to run for a third time in 2024 out of fear that a more radical left-wing candidate could end up on the ticket, veteran political consultant Dick Morris said in a new interview.

The longtime Bill Clinton adviser made the prediction on John Catsimatidis’ WABC radio show “Cats Roundtable” Sunday morning amid renewed speculation that 79-year-old Biden will not seek a second term.

Dems “are planning to dump Biden,” said the self-proclaimed “secret adviser” to former President Donald Trump, adding that Clinton would be the party’s nominee if no other centrist candidate emerged.

“Once Biden pulls out, the polling will show that the Democrats are leaning toward some crazy radical like Gavin Newson, Bernie Sanders. Maybe even AOC herself,” Morris opined.

“That’s going to drive the Democratic Party leaders to go to Hillary and say, ‘Hey look. Please run again. We need you to save us from the crazy left,” he continued. “Otherwise we’ll have Sanders as our candidate. We’ll lose Congress by a ton. And we’ll get wiped out in the presidential race.’” (Read more from “Ex-Clinton Adviser Predicts Dems Will ‘Dump’ Biden in Favor of Hillary in 2024” HERE)

The Case for Impeachment Gets Stronger

/0 Comments/in , /by

Over six months ago, I made the case here at American Greatness for impeaching Joe Biden. The case has only grown stronger in the interim. Not only has more information come to light about Biden’s illegal conduct, but he also has pushed a number of new policies that are constitutionally suspect at best and deserve intensive congressional scrutiny—assuming the Republicans don’t blow the midterms in November.

I argued that the impeachment effort should be about educating moderate voters, independent voters, and even working-class Democrats about the stunning number of unconstitutional actions undertaken by the Biden Administration. It doesn’t matter if the GOP doesn’t have the two-thirds vote necessary in the Senate to convict and remove Biden from office. That’s not the point. After all, a successful impeachment and removal would put Kamala Harris in the Oval Office, and she may be even worse.

Some pundits claim that impeaching Biden would hurt the GOP politically. That’s nuts. The Democrats impeached Trump twice and used those hearings to convince many former Trump voters to abandon him in 2020. Along with all the “2000 Mules”-type cheating, it worked.

Similarly, the GOP should drag out the impeachment hearings for a year while they feature an array of credible witnesses to testify how this man has declared war on the American middle class and brought our country to the brink of economic collapse. Try as they might, such political theater would be difficult for the media to ignore.

Biden’s impeachable actions include his refusal to enforce immigration laws; the debacle in Afghanistan; the nuclear deal with Iran; the Hunter Biden scandal; using the COVID epidemic to illegally accumulate power; weaponizing the FBI and Department of Justice against Americans; violating the rights of January 6 protestors; and working with Big Tech to censor the First Amendment rights of Americans.
