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)

No Surprise: As War Rages, Joe Biden Has Weekend Plans; WATCH: Biden’s Working With Russia ‘to Bring Iranian Oil Back in’ With Iran Deal

By Townhall. As Russian President Vladimir Putin continues his unrelenting assault on Ukrainian citizens, committing war crimes through the use of cluster bombs and attacking nuclear sites in the country, President Joe Biden is headed home to Delaware for the weekend.

“In the evening, the President will travel to Wilmington, Delaware, where he will remain over the weekend,” the White House daily schedule states.

Biden also went to Delaware last weekend for a family funeral. He has spent 35 weekends at home since taking office in January 2021. (Read more from “No Surprise: As War Rages, Biden Has Weekend Plans” 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.

Fear of Donald Trump Kept Putin From Invading Ukraine

A recent Harvard-Harris poll found that 62 percent of Americans believe that Russia would not have invaded Ukraine if Donald Trump were still in the Oval Office. As former senior intelligence officials under President Trump, we agree with that view.

Russia invaded Georgia in 2008 when George W. Bush was president. Russia took Crimea in 2014 when Barack Obama was president. Russia has now invaded Ukraine with Joe Biden as president. However, when Donald Trump was president, Russia did not seize territory from any of its neighbors.

During his four years in office, Trump not only successfully deterred Russia from acting against Ukraine, he effectively deterred a lot of bad behavior across the planet. He focused on ending America’s foreign wars rather than launching new ones. At the same time, he brokered the Abraham Accords to expand peace in the Middle East.

The exercise of American power to deter adversaries is a complicated business. It involves a mix of military, economic, political, and diplomatic strategies and actions that together communicate the costs of threatening U.S. national interests.

Biden Botches a Major Detail About Who Is Firing Missiles at Civilians (VIDEO)

During remarks ahead of a meeting with his Cabinet at the White House Thursday afternoon, President Joe Biden said missiles were being fired at civilians in Russian cities. That isn’t true. Russian forces are currently firing missiles into Ukrainian cities and targeting civilians.

Russian state run media has been falsely accusing Ukraine of firing on Russian cities to justify President Vladimir Putin’s unprovoked invasion into the country, ensuring they will use Biden’s remarks to bolster their propaganda campaign.

In January Biden caused major headaches around the globe after saying a “minor incursion” by Russia into Ukraine may be acceptable. (Read more from “Biden Botches a Major Detail About Who Is Firing Missiles at Civilians” HERE)

State of Confusion: Top Ways Biden Contradicted Himself During His SOTU

. . .Feigning to stand up for Ukraine when he publicly told Vladimir Putin last month that a “minor incursion” was tolerable, and when his son Hunter treated Ukraine like a private piggybank during Biden’s vice-presidency. There is rich irony in Biden’s threat to go after the “ill-begotten gains” of Russian oligarchs, “your yachts, your luxury apartments, your private jets,” when Hunter partied in Monte Carlo, Lake Como, Acapulco and Shanghai with foreign oligarchs, visited their ill-gotten mansions in Moscow, and partied on their yachts. For instance, Hunter flew to Moscow on Feb. 16, 2012, to have breakfast at the $80 million mansion of Russian oligarch Ara Abramyan, a close Putin ally, who would be his link two years later to a lucrative board seat on the corrupt Ukrainian energy company ­Burisma.

Calling for unity to a room full of Republicans while falsely claiming that the Trump administration’s 2017 tax cut only helped “the top 1%.” Even the Washington Post has declared this a “3 Pinocchio” lie, pointing out that the share of federal income taxes by the top 1% increased while the share paid by people in the middle quintile of the income spectrum fell.

Posing amusingly as an America First nationalist — complete with Trumpian “USA! USA!” chants from his colleagues on the floor. All power to Biden if he follows through on his promised “revitalization of American manufacturing,” but he will be going against his own record. Imports from China rose almost 20 percent in his first year of office and, when he was the powerful chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in 2001, he pushed reluctant Senate colleagues to bring China into the World Trade Organization, a landmark decision that would deal a body blow to America’s working class as millions of manufacturing jobs were lost to cheap Chinese labor.

Securing our border: This takes some chutzpah when Biden deliberately dismantled Trump’s hard-won border protections and is still in court fighting the remain-in-Mexico policy. Three million people from around the world trying to illegally break into the country is an invasion he is ignoring. He handed control of the border to the ruthless cartels, and even demonized horseback border patrol agents falsely accused of whipping illegal migrants. He boasted about “joint patrols with Mexico and Guatemala to catch more human traffickers,” but his administration is providing an essential link in the trafficking chain when it flies illegal migrants secretly around the country in the dead of night.

Beating the opioid epidemic: The “opioid crisis” he anointed as a bipartisan cause was turbocharged when he flung open the southern border to record quantities of fentanyl, a drug which is now the leading cause of death for Americans aged 18 to 45.

Mom of Marine Killed in Afghanistan Unloads on Biden

A parent of a Marine who was killed during the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan blasted President Joe Biden on social media after he did not mention the 13 service members who were killed by a suicide bomber during his State of the Union.

Shana Chappell, the mother of Marine Lance Corporal Kareem Nikoui, said in a lengthy statement, Biden did not mention the 13 troops because he knows their blood is on his hands and “You don’t even care!”:

“[Joe Biden] did you already forget that you put 13 kids in flagged draped coffins you piece of sh*t??? You disrespectful mother effer, SAY OUR KIDS NAMES!!!!! Do you remember this day in Dover??? I do!!! I had to watch my son be taken off a plane while my heart felt like it was being ripped from my chest and you stood there checking your watch over and over again like being there was taking up to much of your precious time! I will never get to hug my son again, i will never hear his beautiful laugh, he won’t get to have a family of his own, he is forever 20 and it’s your fault Biden and your military advisors faults!!! You don’t even care! All you care about is continuing to destroy our country from within! You are a weak, spineless, traitor, coward piece of sh*t!!! America hates you!!! I hate you!

“You are why my son is dead! You are why all 13 are dead! Their blood is on your hands and you know it, that’s why you refuse to say their names!!You are a lying,liar who lies and you are no friend of #jesus !! There’s a special place in Hell for you Biden! You and your corrupt administration are going down one way or another! I’ve had enough of you and your bullshit! You are nobody Biden, you are not the president!! Cheating isn’t winning and lying never becomes the truth!

Biden Administration Threatens Texas Over Trans Kids

President Joe Biden’s administration warned Wednesday that it will take “immediate action if needed” to protect children involved in transgender surgery procedures.

Both the White House and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra issued statements Wednesday evening condemning Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX)’s direction to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to investigate the parents of children who have undergone “so-called ‘sex change’ procedures.”

“This is government overreach at its worst,” Biden said in a statement. “Like so many anti-transgender attacks proliferating in states across the country, the Governor’s actions callously threaten to harm children and their families just to score political points.

“These actions are terrifying many families in Texas and beyond,” he added. “And they must stop.”

Becerra promised that HHS is “committed to protecting young Americans who are targeted because of their sexual orientation or gender identity” and said that he has directed HHS to “evaluate the tools at our disposal to protect trans and gender diverse youth in Texas.” (Read more from “Biden Administration Threatens Texas Over Trans Kids” HERE)

Joe Biden’s State of the Union Previewed Dems’ Fake Attempt to Walk Back Their Culture War

Joe Biden’s ”State of the Union” address clearly marked an attempt by his White House to make their culture war seem like an afterthought. It’s not, of course, as evidenced by the president’s description of abortion as “health care” and his demand that Congress pass the radical Equality Act. But the bulk of Biden’s speech focused on “meat and potatoes,” as Chris Hayes repeatedly claimed during MSNBC’s coverage.

It’s true, Biden dedicated much of his address to Ukraine, infrastructure, the economy, health care, and Covid-19. He earned a robust round of applause with a line that said, “We should all agree the answer is not to defund the police. It is to fund the police.” He touched on guns, immigration, and the environment, but they were hardly his focus. Notably, Joy Reid lamented the absence of Jan. 6 from Biden’s address, arguing it was characteristically devoid of “red meat.”

Reid was right to find that balance remarkable. Rather than signaling a shift away from Democrats’ scorched-earth culture war, Biden’s speech signaled a shift away from the party’s strategy of obsessing over identity politics. This comes with an enormous caveat: Democrats cannot and will not meaningfully make any such pivot beyond rhetoric.

Until they’re willing to drop truly radical policies like the Equality Act, it’s all smoke and mirrors meant to distract voters from what they’re actually doing to the culture. Democrats cannot simply pretend the summer of 2020 and the lockdowns never happened, no matter how much the media might help them try, because the party has now spent years committing to inflated definitions of bigotry that would condemn any moderation from their positions.

Biden SCOTUS Pick: Judicial System ‘Unfair’ to Sex Offenders

President Biden’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, acknowledged in a Senate confirmation questionnaire that she was the author of a paper published anonymously that charged the American judicial system was “unfair” to sex offenders.

The paper, which said sex offenders’ punishments had been “excessive,” “unfair and unnecessarily burdensome,” was titled “Prevention Versus Punishment: Toward a Principled Distinction in the Restraint of Released Sex Offenders.”

It was published in 1996 in the Harvard Law Review as a “note.” Jackson did not disclose her authorship until the Senate Judiciary Committee asked her to list published writings as part of her nomination, Just the News reported

She argued that courts had been “unable” to differentiate between “preventive” and “punitive” punishments for sex offenders. . .

“[E]ven in the face of understandable public outrage over repeat sexual predators, a principled prevention/punishment analysis evaluates the effect of the challenged legislation in a manner that reinforces constitutional safeguards against unfair and unnecessarily burdensome legislative action,” she wrote.
