Joe Biden to Open the Border on May 23

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s deputies have announced they will lift the Title 42 barrier at the southern border on May 23, allowing a vast wave of wage-cutting, rent-spiking migrants into America’s job and housing markets.

“We are increasing our capacity to process new arrivals, evaluate asylum requests,” said a statement from Alejandro Mayorkas, who heads Biden’s Department of Homeland Security and is trying to build an extra immigration system that operates alongside annual limits set by Congress.

The formal announcement implies that the president will not block the border-opening plan by his deputies.

Without the Title 42 rules, Mayorkas and his allies insist they are required to let anyone at the border appeal for asylum. The process has been overloaded, ensuring that all people who apply for asylum can legally work and live in the United States for several years.

“Their plan is to move people into the country faster,” Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) said on March 30. “That’s their whole plan.” (Read more from “Joe Biden to Open the Border on May 23” HERE)

Liar, Liar: White House Stands by False Biden Claim That Hunter Did Not Make Money From China; The Media Avoided the Ties Between Joe Biden and Hunter’s Laptop

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. The White House defended Thursday Joe Biden’s old claim that his son Hunter Biden did not make money from China and did not do anything “unethical” with his business dealings overseas.

During the third presidential debate in October 2020, Biden stated emphatically that “nothing was unethical” about his son’s foreign business deals.

Biden also claimed, “My son has not made money in terms of this thing about, what are you talking about, China.

The moderator of the third debate, NBC’s Kristen Welker, questioned White House communications directer Kate Bedingfield about Biden’s statements during the White House press briefing on Thursday.

“We absolutely stand by the president’s comment” Bedingfield replied. (Read more from “Liar, Liar: White House Stands by False Biden Claim That Hunter Did Not Make Money From China” HERE)

The Media Avoided the Ties Between Joe Biden and Hunter’s Laptop

By New York Post. Wonders never cease. First the New York Times. Then CNN. Now the Washington Post has caught up with the Hunter Biden laptop story — only 18 months after the New York Post broke the scandal, and too late for the 2020 election.

But now, after our story was censored by Big Tech and dismissed as “Russian disinformation” by Democratic prevaricator Adam Schiff, and 51 former spooks led by former CIA Director John Brennan, apparently it’s safe to admit the laptop is real and the emails we published can be easily authenticated.

Of course, they all avoid the inevitable conclusion to be drawn from evidence contained on the laptop that the president’s drug-addled son Hunter abandoned at a MacBook repair shop in Delaware in April 2019: that Joe Biden, when he was vice president, was aware of, and intimately involved in, a corrupt, multimillion-dollar, international influence-peddling scheme run by Hunter, and Joe’s brother Jim Biden, in the countries for which Joe was point man in the Obama administration, such as Russia, Ukraine and China.

Hunter’s laptop is a large piece of the jigsaw puzzle that leads to such a shocking conclusion.

But despite acknowledging that the material on the laptop showed that Hunter was “trading on his ­father’s name to make a lot of money,” as CNN White House correspondent John Harwood put it, both the Washington Post and CNN were at pains to absolve Joe Biden of any involvement in the scheme.

Drill, Baby, Drill!? Biden Finally Urges Oil Companies to Produce More

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden delivered another speech about his attempt to reduce the high cost of gas, as prices continue to rise despite his promise to “work like to the devil” to bring them down.

Biden urged oil companies to start producing more oil, threatening to punish them if they do not respond.

The president accused oil companies of “hoarding” federal oil leases, announcing a new “use it or lose it” plan, where he would charge companies more fees if they failed to develop their oil leases on federal land or even take them away.

“[T]hey can put those profits to productive use by producing more oils, restarting idle wells, or producing on sites they are already leasing,” Biden said.

He acknowledged it took “months, not days” to ramp up production, announcing he would release one million barrels of oil per day to help fight shortages in the meantime. (Read more from “Drill, Baby, Drill!? Biden Finally Urges Oil Companies to Produce More” HERE)

Congress Just Confirmed Biden Nominee Who Defended Ad Comparing Trump Era to Nazi Germany

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Senate confirmed President Joe Biden’s pick for Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism, Deborah Lipstadt, who has been criticized for comparing Trump’s presidency to Nazi Germany.

Lipstadt — who worked as an educator at Emory University and as a historian of Jewish history and the Holocaust — was nominated by Biden to the position 8 months ago. Lipstadt’s confirmation was subsequently held up by Republicans, who were troubled by some of her comments and positions during the Trump administration, according to ABC News.

Lipstadt was finally confirmed by unanimous consent Wednesday night, without any Republican objections.

In September of 2020, shortly before the election, the Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA) released a video ad featuring a split-screen of former President Donald Trump speaking with images from Nazi Germany, including swastikas and Germans performing the Nazi salute. The narrator says, “History shows us what happens when leaders use hatred and nationalism to divide their people.”

U.S. Senators Reveal CCP-Controlled Company Funneled Millions to Biden Family

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republican Sens. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa revealed on Tuesday that Hunter Biden and James Biden were funneled millions of dollars from companies directly influenced by the Chinese Communist Party to offer the “spy chief of China” legal representation.

Energy company CEFC, which Johnson and Grassley say is “effectively an arm of the Chinese government,” paid Hudson West Three, one of Hunter’s companies, $1 million in November 2017. Five months later, Hunter’s Hudson West Three transferred $1 million to another Hunter Biden company, Owasco with a memo detailing the funds were for CEFC vice-chairman and secretary-general Dr. Patrick Ho Chi Ping’s “Representation.”

The same month CEFC sent a $1 million wire to Hudson West Three, Ho was arrested and charged with using millions of dollars to “bribe top officials of Chad and Uganda in exchange for business advantages for CEFC.” In 2019, Ho was convicted and sentenced in the United States to three years in prison for international bribery and money laundering.

“And guess what Ho did around the same time he was arrested by the FBI for corruption and bribery. He contacted James Biden,” Johnson explained from the Senate floor on Tuesday. “Ho’s decision to call the Biden family around the same time he got arrested is revealing, particularly in light of the fact that the same month a million dollars just happened to be transferred to Hunter Biden’s company.” (Read more from “U.S. Senators Reveal CCP-Controlled Company Funneled Millions to Biden Family” HERE)

China: Biden Pushing Ukraine Crisis Into ‘Nuclear War’; US Skeptical of Russian Claims It’s Scaling Back the War in Ukraine

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. China’s state-run Global Times on Monday accused President Joe Biden of pushing the world closer to nuclear war by declaring Russian leader Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power” after invading Ukraine.

The Global Times was unimpressed by White House efforts to spin Biden’s remarks away as a gaffe, or later as a personal expression of his deep “moral outrage” that has no bearing on U.S. foreign policy.

“No matter how well Biden’s propaganda machine works, it cannot downplay the fact that such a blunt statement at a sensitive time could further inflame the situation. This was unwise and irresponsible, reflecting a dire problem within U.S. policy-making: some politicians are taking their personal grievances to the national level,” the Chinese Communist paper wrote.

No additional examples of such grievance-nationalizing were provided, but one suspects the editors were thinking about stern criticism of China’s actions from American politicians.

The Global Times and its correspondents mocked Biden for talking tough after his debacle in Afghanistan, which brought a 20-year effort to change the regime in a far smaller and poorer nation than Russia to a mournful conclusion.

US Skeptical of Russian Claims It’s Scaling Back the War in Ukraine

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden and other American officials voiced extreme caution Tuesday at signals Russia is scaling back its military operations near Kyiv, suggesting they were waiting to see stronger signs of de-escalation before making an assessment of Moscow’s intentions.

“We’ll see. I don’t read anything into it until I see what their actions are. We’ll see if they follow through what they’re suggesting,” Biden said at the White House, where officials were busy digesting intelligence and reports from the ground that Russian troops were moving their focus away from Ukraine’s capital toward other areas of the country.

Biden’s don’t-trust-but-verify approach reflects deep American skepticism at Russian President Vladimir Putin’s motives amid his monthlong invasion of Ukraine. While the US has observed movements of Russian forces away from Kyiv, there remains doubt the Russian assault on Ukraine will end soon.

Some Western officials viewed Russia’s moves as a mere tactical exercise amid a stalled campaign in Ukraine. US officials also said Russia could always reverse itself if the battle conditions allow. (Read more from “US Skeptical of Russian Claims It’s Scaling Back the War in Ukraine” HERE)

Are Biden and Harris ‘Incompetent’? See How Many Americans Think So

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .[A] new poll from McLaughlin & Associates reveals that six of 10 Americans think either Biden or Harris – or both – are “incompetent.”

The pollster explained in an analysis at Newsmax, “This means six in 10 voters view either our president, the vice president or both as incompetent. This is a very disturbing result at a time when inflation is rampant and war is threatening the world.”

Further, the polling shows that Americans are backing a brain test for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, an octogenarian, too.

Paul Bedard in his Washington Secrets column noted it was a “growing sign of voter concern about the cognitive abilities of the nation’s elderly leadership.” . . .

On the question of competency, 15% say Biden is more incompetent, 11% say Harris is more incompetent, and 33% say both. A minority of 35% said neither was incompetent. (Read more from “Are Biden and Harris ‘Incompetent’? See How Many Americans Think So” HERE)

Here’s How Much ‘Bidenflation’ Is Really Taking Out of Your Bank Account

/0 Comments/in , /by

Our era is known for deluging consumers in more information than they can thoughtfully intake, and the Biden White House is counting on you to glance past the record-breaking bad inflation numbers that keep revealing the dangers of Congress’s high-dollar spending. You might give only a cursory look to a list of percentages from the Labor Department, but apply those numbers to your own paycheck, savings, and expenses, and the numbers start to sound a lot bigger and more painful.

The average annual wage earned by American workers was $53,383 for the year 2020, according to the Social Security Administration. Take 7.9 percent of that — the year-over-year inflation rate for February — and you have $4,217. So, for that average American salary to maintain the same value it had a year ago, it would have to increase by just over $4,200; if it hasn’t, inflation has cost you roughly $4,200 in depreciation of your salary’s value.

To compare, the average annual pay raise employees are expected to receive in 2022 is 3.4 percent — less than half of the past year’s inflation rate. Using the previous average wage, even if you got a 3.4 percent raise (adding $1,815 to your yearly income), you’d still be down more than $2,400. And that’s with an average raise that’s already higher than pay bumps in previous years; in 2021, the average employer gave out 2.8 percent raises.

Not only does inflation mean you’re effectively getting paid less, it also means that in many sectors, you have to spend even more of those dollars to purchase the same amount and quality of goods. Some goods, like the cost of food, have a comparable rate of inflation to the overall rate of 7.9 percent, but other commodities have jumped far more drastically.

Oil Industry Report Warns of Massive Job Losses From Biden’s Anti-Drilling Agenda

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration’s failure to pursue a plan for offshore oil and gas leasing will have long-term impacts on American jobs, gross domestic product (GDP) and energy security, an industry report found.

American oil production would decline by roughly 500,000 barrels per day and at least 57,000 energy industry jobs would be lost if the administration declined to issue a five-year leasing plan by July, according to a report published Tuesday by the American Petroleum Institute (API) and National Ocean Industries Association (NOIA). U.S. GDP would decline $5 billion per year under the projection, the study further showed.

“If this delay persists, the impacts will likely continue to grow, reducing longterm oil and natural gas development and production in the region and the economic activity and government revenues that activity supports,” the report stated.

The Department of the Interior (DOI) is required, under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act of 1953, to formulate and publish five-year plans detailing prospective offshore oil and gas lease sales. Without a plan in place, the federal government would be unable to hold any offshore lease sales.

But the Biden administration hasn’t moved forward on a new plan even as the current one is set to expire in June, according to a recent Congressional Research Service report. (Read more from “Oil Industry Report Warns of Massive Job Losses From Biden’s Anti-Drilling Agenda” HERE)

1.1 Million More Illegal Aliens in US Since Biden Took Office

/0 Comments/in , /by

The population of illegal immigrants in the United States has jumped by 1.1 million in President Joe Biden’s first year, says a report released Tuesday by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS).

CIS said in an announcement distributed to the press that the data from the Department of Homeland Security is from 2018, so it used the federal government’s “household survey” to get more current information about the number of illegal aliens inside the country.

Data from the survey showed the illegal alien population was 11.4 million in January of 2022. The center’s preliminary population estimate for February 2022 is 11.5 million.

“The number of illegal immigrants grew dramatically this past year as the result of Biden administration policies which released most of the people encountered at the border and stopped most interior enforcement,” Steven Camarota, the Center’s director of research and the report’s lead author, said.
