Surprise! Biden’s Spending Bills Will Not ‘Cost Zero Dollars’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s administration is facing a daunting reality check after claiming for months that their spending agenda will “cost zero dollars,” with the head of the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) saying the White House drastically overestimated the revenue the IRS could gain by cracking down on tax loopholes.

Biden and numerous other senior Democrats in the White House and on Capitol Hill have repeatedly insisted that their $1.85 trillion social spending package will add nothing to the national debt. They argued the package included enough pay-fors to offset the spending programs. CBO chief Phillip Swagel brought that claim down on Monday, however, saying that the tax loophole crackdown in the bill would only garner $120 billion, a far cry from the White House’s projected $400 billion, according to The New York Times.

The CBO, which is a non-partisan organization, is set to release its official report Friday. The White House is shoring up support and urging lawmakers to disregard the report ahead of its release.

“In this one case, I think we’ve made a very strong empirical case for CBO not having an accurate score,” Ben Harris, assistant secretary for economic policy at the Treasury Department, told the NYT. “The question is would they rather go with CBO knowing CBO is wrong, or would they want to target the best information they could possibly have?”

Analysis: New American Civil War ‘Not Terribly Unlikely’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Under a Joe Biden presidency, the nation was told during his campaign, there would be new “unity,” a new moderate path that would bring Americans together into one big happy family. Out with the years of “division” under President’s Trump’s successful economic plans, his border security efforts, even his “Abraham Accords” bringing new levels of security in the Middle East.

Then Biden was inaugurated and came the southern border illegal alien crisis, the attacks on the pro-lifers in America, the Afghanistan disaster, inflation, a developing energy crisis, and more. He even apparently dozed off while attending the recent Glasgow climate summit.

Actually, that idea of unity is so far from the truth a columnist now has contributed a piece to the Daily Mail that actually raises the prospect of a new civil conflict in the nation, a development described as “not terribly unlikely.”

The warning comes from freelance write Malcom Kyeyune, who lives in Uppsala, Sweden.

“How likely is it that there will be some sort of civil conflict in the near or mid future for the United States?” he wrote. “Unfortunately, the correct answer here may very well be that it is not terribly unlikely.” (Read more from “Analysis: New American Civil War ‘Not Terribly Unlikely'” HERE)

Biden Shocked to Learn High Gas Prices Are His Fault

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden appeared shocked this week to discover that gas prices are so high. Just wait until he finds out his administration is the reason why.

“We got a higher demand for goods at the same time we’re facing disruptions in the supplies to make those goods. This is a recipe for delays and for higher prices, and people are feeling it,” Biden said in Baltimore on Wednesday. “They’re feeling it. Did you ever think you’d be paying this much for a gallon of gas? In some parts of California, they’re paying $4.50 a gallon!”

Maybe Biden is just now noticing, but drivers have been paying significantly more at the pump for several months now. The average retail price of a gallon of gas began to climb in May and has now reached a seven-year high, according to the American Automobile Association. On average, people are spending about $3.42 per gallon and $20 more to fill up their tanks than they did this time last year.

Biden Blunders: President Serves up More Word Salad, Jokes Jill Biden Has Second Husband, Loses His Mask

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden seemed to fumble his words during his Monday address ahead of signing the bipartisan infrastructure bill, then joked that first lady Jill Biden had a second husband.

During his speech , Biden made the bizarre joke as he thanked his roster for their contributions in bringing the bipartisan infrastructure bill to fruition.

“I want to thank everyone who helped make this happen,” Biden said. “Vice President Harris, my Cabinet members, my White House team, Jill, Doug, our first lady, and our … second husband, no I’m joking.” . . .

Before sitting down to sign the bill, Biden appeared to forget his face mask, but after returning to the podium, he couldn’t find it.

“My mask, I forgot my mask,” Biden said as he stood up from the signing table and walked back to the podium. “I guess I don’t,” he said before giving up the search. (Read more from “Biden Blunders: President Serves up More Word Salad, Jokes Jill Biden Has Second Husband, Loses His Mask” HERE)

Federal Appeals Court Blocks Biden’s ‘Staggeringly Overbroad’ Vaccine Mandate

/0 Comments/in , /by

The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals has blocked Democrat President Joe Biden’s coronavirus vaccine mandate in a ruling late on Friday, calling it “staggeringly overbroad.”

The three-judge panel in New Orleans ruled that Biden’s mandate “grossly exceeds OSHA’s statutory authority,” writing that “rather than a delicately handled scalpel, the Mandate is a one-size fits-all sledgehammer that makes hardly any attempt to account for differences in workplaces (and workers) that have more than a little bearing on workers’ varying degrees of susceptibility to the supposedly ‘grave danger’ the Mandate purports to address.”

Judges Kurt D. Engelhardt, Edith H. Jones, and Stuart Kyle Duncan said that the mandate imposed financial burdens on businesses that could potentially violate the Constitution, writing, “The Mandate imposes a financial burden upon them by deputizing their participation in OSHA’s regulatory scheme, exposes them to severe financial risk if they refuse or fail to comply, and threatens to decimate their workforces (and business prospects) by forcing unwilling employees to take their shots, take their tests, or hit the road.”

The court stayed the mandate in a ruling last Saturday, writing that there were potentially “grave statutory and constitutional issues with the Mandate.”

White House Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre responded the ruling on Monday by saying that the Biden administration’s message to businesses that fall under the mandate is that they “should not wait” to implement the measure.

Revealed: Biden’s Trying to Raise Taxes on Low and Middle Income Households

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Tax Policy Center, in an analysis, has revealed that Joe Biden is trying to raise taxes on low and middle income households – as well as high income Americans.

The analysis said, “Taking into account all major tax provisions, roughly 20% to 30% of middle-income households would pay more in taxes in 2022. … Among those with a tax increase, low- and middle-income households would pay an additional $100 or less on average. Those making $200,000-$500,000 would pay an average about $230 more.” . . .
In fact, he once blundered his way into saying those Americans would not pay any taxes.

Others, however, would see tax cuts, the analysis said.

“The exception: Those in the top 1%, who will make about $885,000 or more. They’d pay about $55,000 more than under current law. Those in the top 0.1%, who make about $4 million and up, would pay an additional $585,000 on average, a 5.9% reduction in their after-tax incomes.” (Read more from “Revealed: Biden’s Trying to Raise Taxes on Low and Middle Income Households” HERE)

Rittenhouse Spokesman Slams Biden for Ad Implying Teen a ‘White Supremacist’

/0 Comments/in , /by

David Hancock, spokesman for Kyle Rittenhouse, slammed President Joe Biden on Tuesday over an ad he posted while running for president that falsely implies Rittenhouse is a “white supremacist.”

“Don’t forget, the candidate for the U.S. presidency himself last year prior to the election called Kyle Rittenhouse a white supremacist,” Hancock told Fox News host Laura Ingraham. “Joe Biden called him a white supremacist; that is appalling. I can’t even gauge how wrong that is.” . . .

As highlighted by Fox News, Hancock also blasted the media for creating a false narrative about the case.

“The media has been absolutely irresponsible and purely abhorrent with this entire situation,” he said. “They’ve been parroting the same false information time after time after time. They even do it to this day. No, he did not cross state lines with a weapon. That was known last year. Apparently, the media doesn’t care to report accurate information.”

“It’s appalling,” Hancock said, later adding, “It’s almost as if they don’t want to know the facts because then they’re gonna have to say the truth.” (Read more from “Rittenhouse Spokesman Slams Biden for Ad Implying Teen a ‘White Supremacist’” HERE)

Unearthed Videos: Biden Treasury Nominee Says She Wants to ‘Bankrupt,’ ‘Starve’ the Oil and Gas Industry to Save the Climate

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a pair of recently unearthed videos posted online, President Joe Biden’s nominee for a key Treasury Department role admitted that she wants to “starve” and “bankrupt” oil and gas firms in order to save the climate.

Saule Omarova — Biden’s nominee to lead the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency — already faces an uphill climb toward confirmation in lieu of a Marxist paper she wrote in college and past support for radical, progressive initiatives such as the National Investment Authority proposal, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Now her resurfaced comments about bankrupting the fossil fuel industry may only further complicate her prospects.

Biden’s Monumental Game of Chicken

/0 Comments/in , /by

Throughout 2020, America’s doctors, nurses, paramedics and other medical professionals were celebrated as heroes – courageous frontline soldier-healers, selflessly battling a fearsome new pandemic called COVID-19.

Just one year later, in 2021, tens of thousands of those same “frontline heroes” are now branded as rebels, conspiracy theorists, extremists – and yes, potential terrorists, at least according to the Department of Homeland Security. Considered so dangerous as to merit termination, their professional and personal lives turned upside down due to their decision not to be injected with the experimental COVID vaccines, they are forbidden from working in their field of hard-won expertise and forced to take any job they can get – or go on unemployment. Many are compelled to sell their homes, relocate their families entirely and try to start over. This is happening in massive numbers, right now, all over America.

From hero to untouchable – what a difference a year makes. A year in which America has been ruled by a corrupt, dishonest and cognitively disintegrating puppet of a president totally subservient to secret handlers and even-more-secret anti-American agendas. . .

The same fate is being imposed on America’s police, its firemen, its border patrol agents and other key protectors and defenders of civilized society; its airline pilots, air-traffic controllers, plane mechanics and others essential to America’s transportation and distribution systems; plus all federal government employees, multitudes of teachers and college students, and all employees of private companies employing more than 100 people – all ordered by Joe Biden to “GET VACCINATED” or else. Then there are the forced vaccinations for the entire Armed Forces of the United States, populated largely by young people at an age and fitness level that render serious COVID-19 outcomes extremely rare. Indeed, as of Oct. 8, only 62 out of 1.4 million members of America’s military – approximately 0.004% – had died of COVID.

In reality, what the Biden administration has put into motion resembles a monumental game of “Chicken” between the “government-medical complex” and tens of millions of Americans who simply choose not to be vaccinated. It’s a harrowing, death-defying contest to see which will happen first: Either millions give in and allow their bodies to be injected with the controversial experimental medicines, or the entire nation loses as many as a quarter of its most essential workers who are forbidden from working, causing the nation to grind to a halt – crippling everything from law enforcement to airlines to commercial supply chains, even hospitals. The shutdowns are already happening – from an obstetric hospital wing in New York to a neonatal intensive care unit in Maine to nursing homes announcing their imminent closure.

Biden Admin to Employers: Ignore Court Order and Proceed With Vaccine Mandate

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal appeals court has ordered a halt to President Biden’s vaccine mandate on larger private businesses, but the White House is telling businesses to move ahead with the plan anyway.

“People should not wait,” Biden Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters at the White House briefing Monday.

“What we continue to advocate from here is to push businesses to move forward with their policies now.”

She described the mandate as “an obligation that the Department of Labor has to protect workers who face grave danger.”

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit ordered a temporary halt on Saturday, ruling the complaint gives “cause to believe there are grave statutory and constitutional issues with the Mandate.” (Read more from “Biden Admin to Employers: Ignore Court Order and Proceed With Vaccine Mandate” HERE)
