Biden Backs Adding Amnesty Into Democrats’ Budget Bill

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden threw his weight Thursday behind a push to add a major amnesty for illegal immigrants into Democrats’ budget proposal, delivering presidential heft to the effort.

“I think we should include in the reconciliation bill the immigration proposal,” the president told reporters after meeting with Senate Democrats on immigration.

Reconciliation is the process that allows budget-related programs to be passed without having to survive a filibuster. But there are also significant restrictions on what kinds of things can be done through reconciliation.

Mr. Biden didn’t say what that proposal was, though there are several options. (Read more from “Biden Backs Adding Amnesty Into Democrats’ Budget Bill” HERE)

Poll: President Biden’s Approval Rating Sinks To New Low

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s approval rating has sunk to its lowest point since he gained office, according to a Rasmussen Reports poll released Wednesday.

The July poll, conducted among 1,500 likely voters, found that 46% of Americans approve of Biden’s job as president, while 52% disapprove. The poll further found that 26% said they “strongly approve” of Biden’s presidency so far, while 42% “strongly disapprove.”

The new poll comes barely a month after Biden’s approval rating first slipped below 50% in June, according to a Monmouth University poll.

Biden’s drop in approval appears to be due to a loss of confidence in his economy and an ongoing skepticism of his policies at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Report: More Than 50,000 Illegal Aliens Caught and Released by Biden Administration

/0 Comments/in , /by

Catch-and-release is alive and well under the Biden administration as 50,000 migrants who crossed the southern border illegally have been released into the U.S. without a court date. Though migrants are told to report to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement office after they are released from detention, only 13% have done so, Axios reported Tuesday.

The report comes as record numbers of migrants are seeking illegal entry into the United States. Southwest land border encounters have been steadily increasing since President Joe Biden assumed office in January, with 188,829 encounters reported in June, the highest number in decades.

According to Chief Patrol Agent Brian Hastings, who is in charge of border patrol in the Rio Grande Valley, border agents made 20,000 apprehensions in the area in just one week.

Between mid-March and mid-July, only 6,700 migrants who crossed the southern border followed instructions and showed up at ICE offices to obtain work permits. Data from the Department of Homeland Security shared with Axios indicates 16,000 migrants have not reported to ICE offices within the 60-day timeframe they were given.

Another estimated 27,000 migrants who were apprehended at the border and then released have yet to appear at an ICE office but still have time to do so before their 60 days are up. An official for DHS emphasized that nearly 70% of illegal immigrants are still within the 60-day window to appear at an ICE office, but that doesn’t mean they’ll show up.

WATCH: Biden Slams ‘Pain in the Neck’ Reporter for off-Topic Question; First Federal Agency Mandates COVID Vaccines

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By New York Post. President Biden on Monday called a reporter a “pain in the neck” for flouting his request for questions only about the US ending its combat mission in Iraq — continuing his habit of lashing out at journalists in response to questions he doesn’t like.

NBC News reporter Kelly O’Donnell disobeyed Biden’s request for questions “about Iraq” and asked Biden instead about reports that the Department of Veterans Affairs would require staff to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

“You are such a pain in the neck. But I’m going to answer your question because we’ve known each other for so long. It has nothing to do with Iraq,” Biden said, before confirming that the VA would be the first federal agency to compel vaccination.

Biden was hosting Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi in the Oval Office when he rebuked the veteran journalist, who often appears on MSNBC. (Read more from “Biden Slams ‘Pain in the Neck’ Reporter for off-Topic Question” HERE)

Veterans Affairs Becomes First Federal Agency To Require COVID Vaccines

By Newsweek. The 115,000 frontline health care workers employed by the Department of Veterans Affairs are now required to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.

With this move, the department becomes the first federal agency to enforce such a mandate. Employees have the next two months to receive their vaccination, government officials told The New York Times.

The move by Veteran Affairs comes as the Delta variant continues to spread across the United States[.] (Read more from “Veterans Affairs Becomes First Federal Agency To Require COVID Vaccines” HERE)

Former White House Physician Believes Biden Will Be Forced to Resign: ‘Something’s Seriously Wrong With Joe’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Rep. Ronny Jackson, who served as the top White House physician under the Obama and Trump administrations, has predicted President Joe Biden won’t finish his term in office because of a lack of fitness for the job.

‘Something is SERIOUSLY wrong with Biden – and it’s only going to get WORSE!’ the Republican congressman from Texas tweeted on Thursday.

‘It’s past the point of embarrassment. He’s lost. He can barely put a coherent sentence together.’

Jackson added: ‘He MUST have a cognitive exam and release the results!’

Jackson told Fox News that Biden, who has been seen tripping on a stairwell before boarding Air Force One and having difficulty speaking coherently, will either be forced from office when the Cabinet invokes the 25th Amendment or he will resign.

WATCH: Did Joe Biden Really Just Tell Reporters, ‘My Butt’s Been Wiped…’?

/1 Comment/in , , /by

President Joe Biden took a question from reporters when he returned to the White House on Sunday after spending the weekend at his Delaware home and began the exchange with a barking, bizarre statement, a clip of which was posted to social media and left many users scratching their heads.

A video clip of the exchange was posted by ABC News White House correspondent Molly Nagle, who asked, “Does immigration need to be in reconciliation? A pathway for citizenship?”

Biden responded in an emphatic matter and appeared to some users to say something like, “My butt’s been wiped!” — though it is not at all clear that’s what the president said. In fact, it’s difficult to make his exact words out due to the background noise and rotor wash of Marine One, the name of the helicopter the president uses for short-distance travel.

Jobless Claims Spike To Two-Month High

/0 Comments/in , /by

First-time unemployment claims shattered expectations last week, rising to a two-month high just weeks after President Joe Biden said the U.S. economy was “on the move again.”

The Department of Labor found that 419,000 Americans filed for initial jobless benefits in the week that ended July 17—20 percent higher than the 350,000 estimate forecasted by economists.

The two-month high in new jobless claims comes just weeks after Biden seized on a June report that showed a pandemic low in the number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits. . .

While many House Democrats have tied an ongoing labor shortage to Biden’s enhanced unemployment benefits, the White House’s top economist recently blamed businesses for the hiring shortfall. (Read more from “Jobless Claims Spike To Two-Month High” HERE)

Texas Has Had It With Biden’s Border Crisis – Governor Abbott Is Taking Matter Into His Own Hands

/0 Comments/in , /by

There is nothing like watching real Patriots stand up and make a difference. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced that Texas law enforcement has begun arresting illegal immigrants for trespassing.

“President Biden’s open-border policies have led to a humanitarian crisis at our southern border as record levels of illegal immigrants, drugs, and contraband pour into Texas,” Abbott said in a June 10 statement. “While securing the border is the federal government’s responsibility, Texas will not sit idly by as this crisis grows. The state is working collaboratively with communities impacted by the crisis to arrest and detain individuals coming into Texas illegally.”

“Texas has begun arresting illegal immigrants who are trespassing in Texas or vandalizing property & fences. They are now being sent to this jail rather than being released like the Biden Admin has been doing. We are adding more officers, National Guard & jails,” Abbott said Thursday.

Thus far, roughly 10 people, all single, adult men, have been arrested and thrown into the hoosegow, with more to come, authorities said Thursday. The jailbirds are being held at what had been a heretofore empty state prison in Dilley, Texas, which lies about 100 miles north of the border town of Laredo. The converted facility will be able to hold just over 950 people. Clearly not the “American dream” they’d hoped for, but that’s what happens when you enter Texas illegally. Texas authorities are expecting to arrest between 100 and 200 trespassers per day.

Sorry Joe: Voters Like Obama and Trump More

/0 Comments/in , /by

Voters don’t dislike President Joe Biden, it’s just that they like former Presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama a hair more, according to a new national survey.

In the latest Rasmussen Reports poll, 51% have a favorable view of the nation’s oldest president ever.

But that isn’t as high as Trump, 52%, and Obama, 55%.

Joe Biden’s Town Hall Behavior Prompts Question: ARE YOU OKAY?; President Gets Roasted For Bumbling Through Event; Hilarious: Biden Calls CNN’s Don Lemon ‘One of the Most Informed Journalists in the Country’ (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By WND. Joe Biden’s verbal gaffes, stumbles and bumbles have made headlines for years – remember when he told a paralyzed supporter to “stand up” so the crowd could see him? – but his behavior at this week’s CNN town hall with Don Lemon reached new heights. . .

It prompted one of the world’s bigger media organizations, DailyMail.com, to bluntly ask, “Are you ok, Mr. President?”

“Biden loses this thoughts on vaccines, flubs answer on his foreign policy work and falsely tells town hall you WON’T get COVID if you have the shot,” the publication proclaimed.

It quoted Biden saying, “The experts say we know that this virus is, in fact, uh, um, uh, it’s going to be, or excuse me.”

He said no one vaccinated will be sent to the ICU or die, and he “repeatedly gave confusing, misleading and non-linear answers when discussing masks, national security issues and COVID-19 vaccine approval.” the report said.

Biden Gets Roasted for Bumbling Through Mostly Empty Town Hall

By The Federalist. President Joe Biden received sharp criticism for his performance at CNN’s town hall on Wednesday, as prominent individuals on both the left and right took to Twitter to bash his awkwardness.

Throughout the event with CNN’s Don Lemon at Mount St. Joseph University in Cincinnati, Biden was mocked by politicians, journalists, and others for seeming incoherent as he tried to talk about coronavirus, the partisan Jan. 6 Capitol riot commission, inflation, the filibuster, and more. The president reiterated at one point that attempts by Republicans to introduce election integrity measures are “Jim Crow on steroids.” . . .

Hilarious: Biden Calls CNN’s Don Lemon ‘One of the Most Informed Journalists in the Country’ (VIDEO)

By The Blaze. President Joe Biden recently called partisan CNN anchor Don Lemon — who has argued that Americans don’t see black people as “human beings” and that parents against critical race theory are just being selfish — “one of the most informed journalists in the country.”

The president made the remarks while responding to a question about how to restore faith in the American system of government during a town hall on Wednesday night.

. . .[C]onfidence in government is at all an all-time low, Biden explained, as evidenced by the scoffing that ensued after he declared on the campaign trail that he wanted to “unite the country.” According to Biden, Lemon remembered the criticism he received because he is well-informed.

“I know this is going to sound like a non-answer to you, but part of this is that — you know because you’re one of the most informed journalists in the country,” Biden said.

“You know the criticism I got when I said I want to unite the country, ‘You can’t unite the country,'” he continued. “And if you can’t unite the country, we can never get some of these problems solved. And that goes to trust. Why can’t you unite the country? Why isn’t there a willingness to trust?” (Read more from “Hilarious: Biden Calls CNN’s Don Lemon ‘One of the Most Informed Journalists in the Country'” HERE)
