New Bill Allows State to Ignore Joe Biden’s Executive Orders

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Lawmakers in North Dakota — where consumers can sue Big Tech and a judge recently exempted religious physicians from doing Obamacare “sex change” operations — are proposing a law allowing the state to ignore presidential executive orders if they don’t meet constitutional muster.

House Bill 1164, introduced for the 2021 session, says the “legislative management may review any executive order issued by the president of the United States which has not been affirmed by a vote of the Congress of the United States and signed into law as prescribed by the Constitution of the United States and recommend to the attorney general and the governor that the executive order be further reviewed.”

It also allows for a review of an executive order by the attorney general “to determine the constitutionality of the order and whether the state should seek an exemption from the application of the order or seek to have the order declared to be an unconstitutional exercise of legislative authority by the president.”

It states that “political subdivision” can implement such an order “that restricts a person’s rights or that the attorney general determines to be unconstitutional under subsection 1 and which relates to: a. pandemics or other health emergencies; b. the regulation of natural resources, including coal and oil; c. the regulation of the agriculture industry; d. the use of land; 3. The regulation of the financial sector… or; f. the regulation of the constitutional right to keep and bear arms.” (Read more from “New Bill Allows State to Ignore Joe Biden’s Executive Orders” HERE)

Illegal Aliens Guilty of DUI, Assault Will Not Be Deported Under Biden Plan

/0 Comments/in , /by

Illegal immigrants convicted of simple assault, driving under the influence, and “less serious” drug crimes will not be deported under new Biden administration Immigration and Customs Enforcement guidelines.

The guidelines—which were outlined in internal memos obtained by the Washington Post—aim to prioritize “threats to national security, border security and public safety,” ICE said in a statement. But the agency’s new operational plan severely narrows the criminal convictions required for an illegal immigrant to be considered a “public safety threat.”

“Generally, these convictions would not include drug-based crimes (less serious offenses), simple assault, DUI, money laundering, property crimes, fraud, tax crimes, solicitation, or charges without convictions,” acting director Tae Johnson wrote in a Thursday email. He added that individuals with “gang tattoos” and other “loose” affiliations with gang activity also would not face deportation, according to the Post.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki confirmed that ICE would not deport illegal immigrants guilty of assault and DUI under the plan during a Monday afternoon briefing. She argued that while such crimes are not “acceptable behavior,” the administration is “talking about the prioritization of who is going to be deported from the country.” (Read more from “Illegal Aliens Guilty of DUI, Assault Will Not Be Deported Under Biden Plan” HERE)

WATCH: Joe Biden Revives Controversial Claim That He Was ‘Shot at’ Overseas

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden on Thursday told State Department employees he was “shot at” overseas — reviving a claim that previously stirred controversy.

“You have great personal courage. I’ve been with some of you when we’ve been shot at,” Biden told a group of diplomatic aides in Washington. . .

Biden said during a CNN-hosted Democratic presidential debate in 2007 that he was “shot at” inside Baghdad’s fortified Green Zone.

He later revised the claim, saying that in fact, “I was near where a shot landed.” (Read more from “WATCH: Joe Biden Revives Controversial Claim That He Was ‘Shot at’ Overseas” HERE)

Joe Biden: It Will Take Ten Years to Get Full Employment at Current Job Growth Rate

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden sounded a dark note on the future of the economy Friday, after a bleak jobs report came out.

The United States economy added 49,000 jobs in December with only 6,000 jobs in the private sector, according to the latest report released Friday morning.

“At that rate, it’s going to take ten years to get back to full employment,” Biden said. “That’s not hyperbole, that’s a fact.” (Read more from “Joe Biden: It Will Take Ten Years to Get Full Employment at Current Job Growth Rate” HERE)

U.S. Economy Adds 49,000 Jobs in January — a Grim Sign for the Jobs Recovery

By CNN Business. America’s jobs recovery has lost steam: Even though 49,000 jobs were added in January, the nation is still down nearly 10 million jobs since before the pandemic.

Friday’s January jobs report also showed that the unemployment rate fell to 6.3%, beating economists’ expectations, marking the first decrease in two months.

The return of some jobs and a lower unemployment rate are definitely good news. But the US labor market needs great news to get out of this crisis. (Read more from “U.S. Economy Adds 49,000 Jobs in January — a Grim Sign for the Jobs Recovery” HERE)

Trump-Era Official Sues Joe ‘Unity’ Biden

/0 Comments/in , /by

Roger Severino, a Trump-era official, is suing President Joe Biden and the new administration for attempting to force him to resign from his position within an independent federal agency, a move that the official argues is unjust.

Despite being recently appointed to the Administrative Conference of the United States (ACUS) by former President Donald Trump to a position that is supposed to last three years, Severino, former head of the Health and Human Services Civil Rights Office, was asked to resign on Wednesday or risk termination by the White House Presidential Personnel Office.

Severino refused to comply with the administration’s demands, citing the three-year ACUS governing statute, and is seeking a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction from a court to prevent his firing.

“President Biden’s attempt to remove me contrary to law exposes his lofty promises of healing and uniting all Americans as nothing more than cynical manipulation,” Severino wrote. “Because I am not one to be bullied, not even by the President himself, I will not resign my duly commissioned post and look forward to seeing how President Biden tries to justify his vindictive actions in court.” (Read more from “Trump-Era Official Sues Joe ‘Unity’ Biden” HERE)

Biden Administration to Open Overflow Facility for 700 Migrant Children

By New York Post. The Biden administration will open an overflow facility able to accommodate up to 700 migrant children within the next two weeks, the Department of Health and Human Services said Tuesday.

In a statement released by the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the department announced plans to reopen a “temporary Influx Care Facility” in Carrizo Springs, Texas, within the next two weeks.

“Initially, the Carrizo Springs ICF will accommodate approximately 700 children in hard-sided structures. Additional semi-permanent (soft-sided) capacity may be added if necessary, though ORR will always prioritize placing children in hard-sided structures over semi-permanent structures,” the statement read.

Biden Pick: Biological Males Have a Right to Compete Against Girls in Sports (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Department of Education, Dr. Miguel Cardona, said he will work to protect a new executive order that mandates biological males be allowed to compete against biological females. Specifically, he will work to make sure the practice is allowed in high schools, where female athletes are often stripped of scholarship opportunities and athletic titles after being forced to compete against biological men.

“What do you think in general about boys running in girls track meets, like they’ve been doing in Connecticut?” Republican Senator Rand Paul asked during Cardona’s confirmation hearing on Capitol Hill.

“I think it’s critically important to respect the rights of all students, including students who are transgender, and that they are afforded the opportunities that every other student has to participate in extracurricular actives,” Cardona responded. . .

“So you don’t have a problem then with boys running in the girls track meet, swimming meets, name it. You’re okay then with boys competing with girls?” Paul asked.

“I believe schools should offer the opportunity for students to engage in extracurricular activities, even if they are transgendered. That is their right,” Cardona said.

Joe Biden Seeks to Surge Foreign-Born Voting Population Ahead of Elections

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden is looking to surge the number of legal immigrants who become naturalized American citizens, and thus are eligible to vote, ahead of the 2022 midterms and 2024 presidential election.

In an executive order on Tuesday, Biden ordered multiple federal agencies to work to boost the rates of legal immigrants becoming naturalized citizens.

The order seeks to “eliminate barriers in and otherwise improve the existing naturalization process … [and] substantially reduce current naturalization processing times … [and] make the naturalization process more accessible to all eligible individuals, including through a potential reduction of the naturalization fee and restoration of the fee waiver process.”

The order creates the “Interagency Working Group on Promoting Naturalization” that includes the Department of Homeland Security, the Labor Department, the Department of Health and Human Services, the Department of House and Urban Development, the Department of Education, the Social Security Administration, and other federal agencies to “develop a national strategy to promote naturalization.” (Read more from “Joe Biden Seeks to Surge Foreign-Born Voting Population Ahead of Elections” HERE)

WATCH: Dem Senator Lists the Reasons Biden’s One Executive Order Was a Fatal Mistake; House Republicans Introduce Bill to Reauthorize Keystone XL Pipeline

/1 Comment/in , /by

By Townhall. Montana Senator Jon Tester (D) on Tuesday said President Joe Biden’s decision to cancel the Keystone XL Pipeline was a mistake. He came to the conclusion based on his personal experience as a farmer.

“I’ve been a supporter of the Keystone Pipeline. There have been two caveats and they’ve been basic caveats: you do it to the safety standards and you respect private property rights. I think the Keystone Pipeline folks could have done a better getting the Fort Peck Tribe on board and they need to continue working to do that but in the end I think it’s a good project,” Tester explained. “I believe in climate change but I also think this one pipeline isn’t going to turn it around, isn’t going to turn our climate around. It’s not going to make it a markedly worse situations.”

The Montana senator said he supports the Keystone Pipeline but he also supports research diving into greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon dioxide, that are released into the air.

“These might sound like two different philosophies butting heads but I’ll tell you, in my real life, I’m a farmer,” he said. “And we’re not where we need to be in this country for replacing diesel fuel with something else, in a tractor, for example, or a semi that’s going down the road.”

House Republicans Introduce Bill to Reauthorize Keystone XL Pipeline Following Biden’s Executive Overreach

By Townhall. A large group of House Republicans, led by North Dakota Congressman Kelly Armstrong, introduced legislation that aims to preserve the Keystone XL Pipeline. The Keystone XL Pipeline Construction and Jobs Preservation Act greenlights construction and operation of the pipeline, and deems a presidential permit unnecessary. The resolution is a direct rebuke to President Biden’s move to pause construction of the pipeline, which will cause an influx of job loss.

The legislation is co-sponsored by a total of 85 House Republican lawmakers, including GOP Leader Kebin McCarthy (CA), Whip Steve Scalise (LA), and Conference Chair Liz Cheney (WY).

Biden’s DOJ Nominee Prosecuted Black Man Sentenced to 27 Years in Prison for Selling $20 Worth of Drugs

/1 Comment/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s nominee to serve as deputy attorney general helped prosecute a black man who was sentenced to 27 years in prison for selling $20 worth of heroin to an undercover police officer. The government dropped charges against the man’s co-defendant as part of a plea deal, court records show.

Lisa Monaco, who Biden tapped for the Justice Department position, was one of the assistant U.S. attorneys who prosecuted a case in 2003 against Reginald C. Steward, a Washington, D.C. man who was charged following an undercover drug bust.

Steward was arrested in Washington, D.C. on Aug. 20, 2002 and was charged with unlawful distribution of heroin, according to court records.

He was convicted at a jury trial on April 16, 2003, and was sentenced to 27 years in prison. An appeals court in 2007 upheld Steward’s conviction, but noted that the evidence presented against him at trial wasn’t “overwhelming.”

But Steward’s co-defendant, who physically conducted the drug exchange with the undercover police officer, had his charges dropped after he pleaded guilty to drug possession in another case. Court records for the man, Bobby Praylow, show that he received a 12-month jail sentence.
