White House Admits it Tries To Get Biden to Shut Up

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .[W]ord that the White House doesn’t want Biden to respond to impromptu questions should surprise no one, Fox News reported.

Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary, said in a CNN interview it’s “not something we recommend.”

She added that many times she tells Biden not to take questions.

“But he’s going to do what he wants to do because he’s the president of the United States,” she said.

Psaki also said press conferences distract Biden from doing his work, and “he would have to answer questions about certain topics.” (Read more from “White House Admits it Tries To Get Biden to Shut Up” HERE)

Biden Cuts ‘God’ Out of Day of Prayer Proclamation

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By WND. President Joe Biden this week cut “God” out of his proclamation for a National Day of Prayer.

Instead, he calls on “citizens” to follow “their own faiths and consciences.”

Just the News documented that “Lord” appears only once, when Biden uses boilerplate language regarding “In the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-one” and a reference to the “divine” only comes up only in a quote from the late Rep. John Lewis[:]

. . .

NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim May 6, 2021, as a National Day of Prayer. I invite the citizens of our Nation to give thanks, in accordance with their own faiths and consciences, for our many freedoms and blessings, and I join all people of faith in prayers for spiritual guidance, mercy, and protection.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this fifth day of May, in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-one, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-fifth.

Biden’s National Day of Prayer proclamation excludes the word ‘God’

By The Christian Post. President Joe Biden’s proclamation in honor of the National Day of Prayer is facing criticism from conservatives because it does not include the word “God.”

Biden, a Catholic, issued a presidential proclamation recognizing the National Day of Prayer Thursday. He invited “the citizens of our Nation to give thanks, in accordance with their own faiths and consciences, for our many freedoms and blessings.”

As the president noted, “Congress, by Public Law 100-37, as amended, has called on the President to issue each year a proclamation designating the first Thursday in May as a ‘National Day of Prayer.’” . . .

“We celebrate our incredible good fortune that, as Americans, we can exercise our convictions freely — no matter our faith or beliefs. Let us find in our prayers, however they are delivered, the determination to overcome adversity, rise above our differences, and come together as one Nation to meet this moment in history.”

Biden also credited prayer for powering “moral movements,” including “essential rights against racial injustice, child labor, and infringement on the rights of disabled Americans.” (Read more from “Biden’s National Day of Prayer Proclamation Excludes the Word ‘God'” HERE)

American Military’s Main Focus: Diversity (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , /by

The nation’s top military officer touted “diversity” as one of the United States military’s “key strengths” on Wednesday, amid a push by the Biden administration to make race a top issue at the Pentagon.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Army Gen. Mark Milley made the remarks at a commissioning ceremony for graduating ROTC cadets at Howard University, one of the nation’s historically black colleges and universities.

“One of the key strengths of the American military is our diversity and fighting for a common cause, and we must get better,” he said.

He said when black Air Force Chief of Staff C.Q. Brown was first commissioned as a second lieutenant, only two percent of pilots in the U.S. Air Force were African American.

“Today, there’s still only two percent pilots in the United States Air Force that are African American,” Milley said.

White Farmer Sues Biden Over ‘Racist’ COVID Relief

/0 Comments/in , /by

A white Wisconsin dairy farmer is suing the Biden administration for its “racist” coronavirus relief plan.

Adam Faust, a disabled farmer, is one of five people in the state last week to sue the administration over the terms of the American Rescue Plan, which provides aid to “socially disadvantaged” farmers. In a federal lawsuit filed in Green Bay, the group alleges that since that definition only includes minority groups and not white people, they have been denied equal protection under the law.

“Were plaintiffs eligible for the loan forgiveness benefit, they would have the opportunity to make additional investments in their property, expand their farms, purchase equipment and supplies, and otherwise support their families and local communities,” attorneys for the farmers wrote. “Because plaintiffs are ineligible to even apply for the program solely due to their race, they have been denied the equal protection of the law and therefore suffered harm.”

Faust told the local Fox affiliate that the plan is “out and out racist.”

“I really don’t think that there should be racism allowed in the federal government at any level!” he said. (Read more from “White Farmer Sues Biden Over ‘Racist’ COVID Relief” HERE)

How COVID ‘Rescue’ Funds Are Mowing Down American Small Businesses

/0 Comments/in , /by

Via the American Rescue Plan, Joe Biden and the current U.S. Congress are re-ordering the small business economy in America in a way they may not have thought through, and the consequences will reverberate throughout the economy for years to come.

Washington is about to replace most of the lost revenue of small businesses in a few select industries while leaving nearly all other small businesses hung out to dry. If you run a local movie theater, a live music venue, or a restaurant, you will be given a grant from Uncle Sam to help you build back after COVID-19. Yet hair and nail salons, independent bookstores, travel companies, junk haulers, business brokers, and countless other businesses are on their own.

The new Restaurant Revitalization Fund will replace a restaurant’s 2019 gross revenue in full — up to $10 million per business. There are, yes, a few caveats for affected owners to be aware of. . .

The Shuttered Venue Operators Grant will replace 45 percent of a live performance venue’s gross 2019 revenue largely without the caveats above. This grant is for live music halls, movie theaters, museums, talent agents, and other types of live art presenters and promoters. Again, it’s a potential godsend for many of these folks.

Yet while these programs are essential, they are incredibly unfair to the rest of America’s millions of small businesses. For those not covered by those two programs, what’s being offered are loans that must be paid back with a lower limit than the gross income metric and slow underwriting — that is, if a business even has the savvy to get in on the Economic Injury Disaster Loan program.

Biden Wants Social Media Platforms to Censor More ‘Untrustworthy Content’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The White House said Wednesday President Joe Biden supported social media companies banning more content considered “untrustworthy” on their platforms.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki declined to say during the daily press briefing if Biden supported social media companies continuing to ban former President Trump from their platforms, but she did reiterate Biden’s support for more censorship.

She said Biden believes that social media companies have the “responsibility” to block questionable content.

“His view is that there is more that needs to be done to ensure that this type of misinformation, disinformation, damaging, sometimes life-threatening information is not going out to the American public,” she said. . .

“The president’s view is that the major platforms have a responsibility related to the health and safety of all Americans, to stop amplifying untrustworthy content, disinformation, and misinformation, especially related to COVID-19, vaccinations, and elections,” she said.

Institutional Racism? Biden Coronavirus Relief Prioritizes Funds for Non-White Business Owners; Scammers Defrauded Relief Funds Out of Millions

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. Restaurants and venues owned by white men will be last in line for federal relief under President Joe Biden’s “Restaurants Revitalization Fund” (RRF), prioritizing funds for women and minority groups first.

As part of Biden’s American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, the Small Business Administration (SBA) is opening the application process by which owners of restaurant, bars, and other venues can apply for federal relief to help make up for the loss of revenue as a result of economic lockdowns spurred by the Chinese coronavirus crisis.

The plan allows business owners to apply for relief of up to $10 million per business and no more than $5 million per physical location. Business owners do not have to repay the funds so long as the money is spent by March 2023.

The relief, though, is being prioritized based on race, gender, and whether or not business owners are considered “socially and economically disadvantaged individuals.” White men, for example, who are not Veterans of the United States Armed Forces, are not eligible for “priority period” processing and funding.

Under the guidelines of the RRF, the SBA is giving priority processing and funding to “small business owned by women, veterans, or socially and economically disadvantaged individuals.” (Read more from “Institutional Racism?

Scammers Allegedly Claimed to Run Churches, Defrauded Coronavirus Relief Funds Out of Millions

By Fox Business. Six people allegedly defrauded government coronavirus relief programs of $3.3 million last year by claiming to run churches that care for the needy.

Terrence Pounds, Charles Tiller, Terri Davis, Randolph Nunn, Samira Abdul-Karim and Quwan Simmons were all charged with wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud on Tuesday, according to the Department of Justice. . .

The government alleged that Pounds acted as the ring leader in the scheme and would have the other five send him their personal information, which he would use to apply for Economic Injury Disaster Loans and Paycheck Protection Program loans. Once the loans went through, the applicant would then allegedly send Pounds a portion of the fraudulently obtained proceeds.

Under one loan application, Pounds allegedly said he operated “Truth Ministries Global Inc,” which he claimed was a “Faith Based Organization” or “Church.”

“We feed the less fortunate and underprivileged, we visit the prisons, we have 24 hours per day and 7 days per week phone line open for prayers and counseling,” Pounds allegedly wrote in the loan application, according to an indictment. “We have church services twice per week.” (Read more from “Scammers Allegedly Claimed to Run Churches, Defrauded Coronavirus Relief Funds Out of Millions” HERE)

Here’s How Many Americans Want Masks ‘Indefinitely’

/1 Comment/in , /by

A majority of people expect President Joe Biden and state officials to keep a mask mandate on for at least another year, with many expecting it to last much longer.

The latest Rasmussen Reports survey said that 58% of respondents expect that they’ll be required to wear masks in public places for at least another six months, including 25% for 18 months or longer.

Most shocking: 15% expect mask mandates to last for a few years to “indefinitely.” (Read more from “Here’s How Many Americans Want Masks ‘Indefinitely'” HERE)

Joe Biden Bends to Pressure, Drastically Increases Refugee Inflow in 2021; DHS Secretary Admits the Truth About Biden’s Border Crisis (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. Progressive pro-migration groups have pushed President Joe Biden to announce that he wants to dramatically raise the inflow of refugees up to 62,500 by October 1.

Biden’s decision reverses the April 16 announcement of a 15,000 goal for 2021 that was recommended by his advisers, who are concerned that Biden’s poll numbers will be further damaged amid the migration crisis. The 15,000 goal was bitterly denounced by Democrat-affiliated pro-migration groups, including the FWD.us group of investors created by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

“I now determine, consistent with my Administration’s prior consultation with the Congress, that raising the number of admissions permissible for FY 2021 to 62,500 is justified by grave humanitarian concerns and is otherwise in the national interest,” Biden announced late Monday.

The high goal “sends the important message that the United States remains a safe harbor for some of the most vulnerable people in the world,” Biden’s statement said.

The decision will also help the government and pro-refugee groups boost the refugee inflow to 125,000 migrants next year. That number would be eight times President Donald Trump’s 2021 goal of 15,000 refugees. (Read more from “Biden Bends to Pressure, Drastically Increases Refugee Inflow in 2021” HERE)

DHS Secretary Admits the Truth About Biden’s Border Crisis

By Townhall. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas finally admitted during an interview with CBS This Morning Monday that illegal border crossings have been “extraordinarily high.”

“In late March you are correct, the numbers were extraordinarily high and we had over 5,700 young children, unaccompanied children, in the custody of the Border Patrol,” Mayorkas said, adding that numbers for April 2021 will likely be high. “The numbers remain high. Whether they are as high as March remains undetermined.”

Biden’s Latest Slip-Up: People Earning Less Than 400K Won’t Pay Taxes (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden said those who make under $400,000 per year “will not pay a single penny in taxes.”

The comment, made during a speech on Monday, is the 78-year-old’s latest blunder.

“The reason I’m going to do this is because I keep hearing on the press, ‘Biden is going to raise your taxes,'” he said. “Anybody making less than $400,00 a year will not pay a single penny in taxes, and we will not increase the deficit either, unlike the last gigantic tax cut, which increased the deficit by $2 trillion.”

The president likely meant those making under $400,000 “will not pay a single penny more in taxes.” (Read more from “Biden’s Latest Slip-Up: People Earning Less Than 400K Won’t Pay Taxes (VIDEO)” HERE)
