Is Biden Keeping a Plot to Kill a Former Trump Official Quiet So He Can Strike a Deal With Iran?

The Biden administration has forged ahead in negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program despite reports that the country’s top leaders have ordered the assassinations of John Bolton and Mike Pompeo.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khameni considers former national security adviser Bolton and ex-Secretary of State Pompeo responsible for the assassination of Quds Force Commander Qasem Soleimani, the Washington Examiner first reported. As a result, he reportedly ordered Soleimani’s successor, Esmail Qaani, to avenge the dead general.

Both Pompeo and Bolton have had their Secret Service protections extended by Congress over the threats, despite their returns to private life. Agents in marked vehicles were seen by neighbors outside of Bolton’s suburban Maryland home in late January. Prosecutors reportedly have enough evidence to bring charges against conspirators, but no arrests have been made.

As a policy, the Justice Department and Secret Service do not comment on active investigations. (Read more from “Is Biden Keeping a Plot to Kill a Former Trump Official Quiet So He Can Strike a Deal With Iran?” HERE)

Biden Rages: ‘I’m Sick’ of Americans Blaming Me for Inflation; Biden ‘Veto’ Warning to Dems Ahead of Midterm Elections

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden complained Friday he was “sick” of Americans blaming him for inflation instead of the coronavirus pandemic or Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“I’m sick of this stuff… The American people think the reason for inflation is the government spending more money,” Biden said angrily. “Simply. Not. True.”

The President made his remarks at a Democrat policy retreat to Democrats in Philadelphia in a rambling speech about issues facing his presidency.

“Democrats didn’t cause this problem. Vladimir Putin did,” Biden said, pointing to the latest inflation reports.

The President is suffering from terrible ratings on the economy due to his failure to address inflation. (Read more from “Biden Rages: ‘I’m Sick’ of Americans Blaming Me for Inflation” HERE)

Biden ‘Veto’ Warning to Dems Ahead of Midterm Elections

By New York Post. President Biden warned lawmakers Friday that the “veto pen” will be the only power he’ll have if the Democrats lose Congress during the 2022 midterm elections.

Speaking in campaign mode at the House Democratic Caucus Issues Conference in Philadelphia, Biden, 79, told party members they needed to hold onto the House and Senate to implement his agenda.

“This off-year election, in my view, may be the most important off-year election in modern history,” Biden said.

“Because we know what happens, we know the fundamental change that shifts if we lose the House and Senate,” he continued. “The only thing I’ll have then is a veto pen.”

Biden also said he was “sick” of Republicans blaming him for spiking gas prices and sky-high inflation. (Read more from “Biden ‘Veto’ Warning to Dems Ahead of Midterm Elections” HERE)

Poll: Trump Leads Biden in Head-To-Head Matchup

Former President Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden in a head-to-head matchup as Americans continue to face rampant inflation and record-breaking gas prices in the second year of the Democrat’s presidency, a Redfield & Wilton Strategies survey released Thursday found.

The survey found Biden’s approval in the net negatives — 47 percent disapproving and 37 percent approving. That reflects a drastic souring over the last month, as 41 percent disapproved of Biden’s job performance and 39 percent approved in February.

The poll also pitched respondents with a November 5, 2024 election scenario, pitting Trump against Biden. Respondents gave Trump a two-point edge over Biden, 42 percent to 40 percent:

Democrats Double Down on Blocking Keystone XL Pipeline

President Joe Biden created concerns over energy independence on his first day in office when he signed an executive order canceling the Keystone XL Pipeline. Now, as gas prices have reached record-highs, with no sign there’ll be relief any time soon, the White House continues to double down on resistance to allow the pipeline, and it’s a move congressional Democrats are adhering to.

On Wednesday evening, 219 Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives blocked consideration of the American Energy Independence from Russia Act (H.R. 6858) offered by Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX). . .

During his floor remarks, Rep. Crenshaw called out the Biden administration’s reliance on foreign oil.

“This week our President – the American President – asked Venezuela and Saudi Arabia to increase oil production. Asked them to boost their outputs so that American consumers wouldn’t see a sharp increase in gas prices. Seems like a noble cause, at first glance. But I couldn’t help but think to myself, what a strange thing to ask. Surely he knows that we can also boost domestic production, right here at home,” the congressman said.

Biden’s NIH Refuses to Answer Questions About University Experiments on Aborted Babies

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) refused to provide answers demanded by lawmakers about fetal tissue research at the University of Pittsburgh, instead pointing to a highly criticized investigation of the school’s regulatory compliance.

In its letter to lawmakers last month, NIH did not provide much of the information requested by nearly 100 members of Congress last fall. Nor did it indicate it would continue investigating the issue, despite criticisms of the investigation Pitt commissioned from the law firm Hyman, Phelps, and McNamara (HPM). . .

NIH’s response noted its Office of Extramural Research (OER) had “been in discussions with the University of Pittsburgh to determine the veracity of these allegations.”

“The University of Pittsburgh commissioned an independent, third-party firm to review and assess their fetal tissue research processes and practices,” the letter, signed by NIH Acting Principal Deputy Director Tara Schwetz, continued. “This assessment reviewed all of the University of Pittsburgh’s activities related to procurement, disbursement, and use of fetal tissue to determine if they were fully compliant with all applicable laws.” (Read more from “Biden’s NIH Refuses to Answer Questions About University Experiments on Aborted Babies” HERE)

Biden Says He ‘Can’t Do Much’ About Rising Gas Prices Hours After Saying He’ll Do ‘Everything’ in His Power to Minimize It

President Joe Biden said Tuesday he “can’t do much right now” about rising gas prices and put the blame squarely on Russia.

The president announced a ban on U.S. imports of Russian energy earlier Tuesday amid Russia’s continued invasion of Ukraine. Speaking at the White House, Biden warned that the move “is not without cost here at home” but promised to do “everything” he “can to minimize” what’s now being described by the administration as “Putin’s price hike.”

Hours later, upon landing in Texas, the president was pressed on what message he had for Americans regarding the rise in gas prices and what he can do about it.

“They’re going to go up,” Biden said. “Can’t do much right now … Russia is responsible.” (Read more from “Biden Says He ‘Can’t Do Much’ About Rising Gas Prices Hours After Saying He’ll Do ‘Everything’ in His Power to Minimize It” HERE)

Republicans Are Successfully Blocking Biden Nominees, and His SCOTUS Pick Could Be Next

The Senate currently finds itself in the unusual situation of a tie – evenly split between 50 Democrats and 50 Republicans. As a procedural matter, a Senate tie requires some interesting maneuvering. A power-sharing agreement must be passed to hammer out how the majority-minority dynamics will play out. Also, in theory, the vice president must be on notice to break any tie votes that occur – something that would be happening a lot more if so many Republicans weren’t happily voting for so many of Joe Biden’s nominees. . .

This is how the Senate Judiciary Committee could block Biden’s nominee to the Supreme Court from reaching the Senate floor. But it also applies in every other committee. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Small Business Committee Republicans have been using this strategy for months to hold up the confirmation of deputy administrator of the Small Business Administration over illegally disbursed Covid relief funds to Planned Parenthood. . .

Senate Republicans are primarily interested in Raskin’s lack of clarity in answers to committee questions related to revolving door issues, particularly how she used her influence following her tenure at the Federal Reserve and the Department of Treasury during the Obama years.

After leaving Treasury in 2017, Raskin joined the board of directors of the Reserve Trust Company, a financial technology (fintech) firm which provides payment processing and other services for business-to-business payment companies. While there, Raskin appeared to use her connections at the Fed to help secure Reserve Trust a Federal Reserve master account, making them the only nonbank fintech company to have access to the Fed payment system.

We Were Warned: Donald Trump’s 2020 Gas Price Prediction Comes True (VIDEO)

Donald Trump’s 2020 prediction that gas prices under President Biden would reach $7.00 per gallon came true this week.

The price of gas in Gorda, California, reached $7.59 on Sunday. Fuel stations in Los Angeles County were also selling premium gasoline for more than $7.00 a gallon. One gas station in Los Angeles was advertising gas for $6.99.

The average price for gas in California is $5.343. Nationally, the average price of gas is $4.065, up over one dollar from last year.

Trump predicted gas would reach $7 under Biden on November 3, 2020, right before election day. It took just over a year after Biden assumed office for Trump’s prediction to come true.

Trump doubled down with his prediction in May. “Gasoline is going to stop at six, seven dollars, I think, based on what I’m seeing,” he said before pooh-poohing renewable energy as impracticable. (Read more from “We Were Warned: Donald Trump’s 2020 Gas Price Prediction Comes True (VIDEO)” HERE)

Biden’s Working With Russia ‘to Bring Iranian Oil Back in’ With Iran Deal

By Fox News. On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) stated that he believes the Biden administration is trying “to bring Iranian oil back in” with the Iran deal negotiations.

McCarthy said, [relevant remarks begin around 2:30] “I just sent a letter to Secretary Blinken about the Iran agreement. What I believe they’re really trying to do — and why don’t we know what’s in it, but we have Russia and China knowing what’s in it — to bring Iranian oil back in. Why would you fund another country that funds terrorism, that wants to have a nuclear weapon, give it to them, and then give them billions of dollars?”

Biden White House on the Verge of Making Disastrous Move With Kamala Harris

The Biden White House is going to ask Kamala Harris to back into the game again? Bench this woman, please. For the sake of our intelligence and human civilization, just put her back into the cardboard box from whence she came. She has failed on the border. She failed in boosting COVID vaccination rates. Harris is a walking failure, who bleeds staff and fosters a toxic work environment. She doesn’t do the work and she doesn’t read the briefings her staff prepare for her, so she doesn’t look like an idiot. She botched the talking points about the sanctions slapped against Russia in the aftermath of their invasion of Ukraine. And now, the White House wants to send her to Poland? Does she even know where that is on the map (via The Hill):

The White House is actively discussing sending Vice President Harris to Warsaw, Poland, and Bucharest, Romania, in the coming days to show solidarity with Ukraine as it faces an escalating Russian invasion, sources familiar with the conversations tell The Hill.

The discussions involve sending Harris to visit troops stationed in Romania and potentially to the border with Ukraine, where a refugee crisis has seen more than 1 million people flee that country since the Russian attack.

The trip could happen in the coming weeks, one source said, adding that there is no active dialogue about sending President Biden to the region.
