Biden Deploying U.S. Military to Provide Meals to Palestinians in Gaza

/2 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden has ordered the deployment of up to 1,000 U.S. troops to construct a temporary pier in Gaza. The goal is to facilitate the delivery of over 2 million meals per day to the citizens of Gaza, according to Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Patrick Ryder.

The decision follows criticism from far-left Democrats and Muslim voters in the U.S. who expressed dissatisfaction with what they perceived as inadequate support for Palestinians in the aftermath of October 7 terrorist attacks orchestrated by Palestinian Islamic terrorists with Hamas. The attacks resulted in the tragic loss of 1,200 lives within Israel.

Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Patrick Ryder, speaking on Friday, explained that the “emergency mission to establish a temporary pier in Gaza” could be a lengthy process, potentially taking months, and involves the deployment of the 7th Transportation Brigade Expeditionary from Joint Base Langley Eustis in Virginia.

The Joint Logistics Over-The-Shore (JLOTS) capability will be utilized to create an expeditionary pier offshore, enabling shipping vessels to transfer cargo to smaller vessels. These smaller vessels will then transport and offload cargo to a temporary causeway, facilitating the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Maj. Gen. Patrick Ryder emphasized that there would be “no U.S. forces on the ground in Gaza.” The planned concept involves U.S. military personnel on military vessels offshore, ensuring aid distribution without requiring personnel to go ashore. Ryder stated, “In terms of security on the ground, we’re continuing to plan and coordinate with partners in the region.”

Regarding aid distribution, Ryder mentioned ongoing coordination with ally and partner nations, the United Nations, and humanitarian non-governmental organizations.

/2 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden signaled on Friday he would sign off on new legislation in Congress that could potentially result in the ban of TikTok.

The House Energy and Commerce Committee voted unanimously on Thursday to advance a bipartisan bill that would force Bytedance, a Chinese-based company, to sell its subsidiary app TikTok or face removal from U.S. Biden told reporters on Friday that he would greenlight the legislation if Congress can pass the bill.

“If they pass it, I’ll sign it,” Biden said before boarding Air Force One en route to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Survey Reveals Majority Express Doubts About President Biden’s Mental Fitness

/2 Comments/in , /by

A recent Harvard-Harris survey has unveiled that a significant majority of Americans harbor doubts about President Joe Biden’s mental fitness, with 59 percent expressing concerns about his ability to serve in the highest office. The survey, conducted on February 21-22 among 2,022 registered voters, paints a concerning picture for the Biden administration.

Respondents were asked a straightforward question: “Is Joe Biden mentally fit to serve as President of the United States, or do you have doubts about his fitness for office?” The results revealed that 59 percent had reservations about President Biden’s mental fitness, while 41 percent did not share such concerns.

What’s noteworthy is the internal breakdown of these numbers. Surprisingly, nearly one-third of Democrats, constituting 32 percent, admitted to having doubts about Biden’s mental fitness. Independents were even more skeptical, with 66 percent expressing concerns. Among Republicans, the doubt percentage stood at 92 percent.

Additionally, 67 percent of respondents believed that President Biden is “showing he is too old” for the role. This sentiment was shared by 40 percent of Democrats, a staggering 92 percent of Republicans, and 68 percent of Independents.

The survey follows ongoing concerns regarding President Biden’s physical and mental fitness, particularly gaining attention after the release of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report. Although Hur decided not to pursue prosecution over Biden’s handling of classified documents, the report included startling revelations about the deterioration of Biden’s mental state.

“We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” the report states. It continues, “It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”

Notably, the report highlighted instances where Biden could not recall essential details, such as when he served as vice president or the date of his son Beau’s death, raising additional concerns about his cognitive abilities.

Report: Zelensky’s Wife Snubs Biden Invite to State of the Union

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that Ukrainian first lady Olena Zelenska declined an invitation from the White House to attend President Joe Biden’s State of the Union (SOTU) address.

The alleged snub was somewhat unusual given the prestige of a choice SOTU seat and Ukraine’s fervent desire to remain in the good graces of the United States, the most pivotal supporter of Kyiv’s struggle against the Russian invasion. The White House reportedly offered to seat Zelenska next to U.S. first lady Jill Biden.

According to the Washington Post, Zelenska turned down the invitation because Yulia Navalnaya, widow of Russian dissident leader Alexei Navalny, was also invited to sit with Mrs. Biden during the speech.

The White House wanted the symbolism of Zelenska and Navalnaya sitting together while President Biden spoke, but the Ukrainian government was reportedly uncomfortable with the arrangement because Alexei Navalny was somewhat equivocal about Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014.

Navalny, who died at the age of 47 under suspicious circumstances in an Arctic penal colony in February, was an outspoken Russian nationalist early in his political career. He supported Russia’s 2018 invasion of Georgia, for example. (Read more from “Report: Zelensky’s Wife Snubs Biden Invite to State of the Union” HERE)

Biden Reportedly Pushing His Aides To Let Him Be Himself Ahead Of Election

/2 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden is pushing his aides to let him be himself ahead of the 2024 election, staffers and people close to the president told The New York Times (NYT).

As Biden battles concerns about his age, the president and those around him are considering a new strategy that would involve letting “Joe be Joe” and interact with the American people more frequently, according to The NYT. As a part of the strategy, the White House has worked on getting Biden outside of Washington, D.C., to participate in one-on-one experiences with voters and to engage on social media, The NYT reported.

“I have been saying for several months to the campaign, ‘Please, let him be Joe Biden,’ and so have many others,” Democratic Delaware Sen. Chris Coons told the outlet.

In a February social media clip, Biden reacted to a video of former President Donald Trump comparing himself to late Russian opposition leader Aleksei Navalny. Rob Flaherty, a top advisor to the president, told The NYT that Biden came up with the idea for the video himself.

“That came from his brain,” Flaherty told the outlet. (Read more from “Biden Reportedly Pushing His Aides To Let Him Be Himself Ahead Of Election” HERE)

Joe Biden Can’t Be Bothered to Speak to the People Who Work for Him

/3 Comments/in , /by

For someone who is supposed to be running the United States government, President Joe Biden doesn’t seem to interact much with those working for him or know what they are doing.

A few weeks removed from the Pentagon hiding the physical condition of Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin from the president, the former chief of the U.S. Border Patrol revealed Sunday that he never once talked to Biden during his two years on the job.

“I’ve never had one conversation with the president or vice president,” Raul Ortiz, who was the chief of the Border Patrol from August 2021 until his retirement last year, said in a 60 Minutes interview Sunday. “I was the chief of the Border Patrol. I commanded 21,000 people. That’s a problem.”

No kidding it’s a problem. The president of the U.S., for two years, was either unwilling or unable to talk to the one person who commands the group of people tasked with ensuring that the U.S. border is secure and under control. All the while, a record number of illegal immigrants crossed the border and were released into the U.S. And, most disturbingly, it betrays how little Biden is involved in managing the government he was elected to lead.

Trump Nostalgia Is Here — And Endangering Biden’s Presidency

/0 Comments/in , /by

Donald Trump obviously left office on a sour note in January 2021, written off by many opinion-makers and political professionals. . .

The most remarkable phenomenon of the 2024 election cycle so far is the rise of Trump nostalgia.

It’s difficult for anyone to have a new opinion about former President Trump, who is so well-known, so in-your-face and so polarizing.

Yet people have a new, more favorable attitude toward his presidency in retrospect, certainly compared to the White House’s current occupant.

After about 36 months of President Biden, in other words, people yearn for the halcyon Trump years. (Read more from “Trump Nostalgia Is Here — And Endangering Biden’s Presidency” HERE)

Joe Biden’s ‘Sanctuary Country’ Orders Cut Loose Illegal Alien Wanted for Rape

/2 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s so-called “sanctuary country” orders ensured that an illegal alien, wanted for rape in the sanctuary state of Oregon and already ordered deported from the United States, was not immediately taken into Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody.

Juan Jose-Sebastian, a 26-year-old illegal alien from Guatemala, first arrived at the United States-Mexico border in November 2015 as an Unaccompanied Alien Child (UAC) and was subsequently released into the United States interior.

In July 2019, a federal immigration judge ordered Jose-Sebastian deported from the United States, but ICE failed to deport him. At a later date, Jose-Sebastian was charged in Washington County, Oregon, on three counts of rape and sexual assault.

Last month, Jose-Sebastian was arrested in Martin County, Florida, for driving without a license. Initially, ICE officials refused to take custody of Jose-Sebastian because he is not considered a priority for deportation under Biden’s sanctuary country orders.

Likewise, Washington County officials refused to extradite Jose-Sebastian back to Oregon to face the rape charges against him. As a result, Martin County was forced to release Jose-Sebastian from jail. (Read more from “Joe Biden’s ‘Sanctuary Country’ Orders Cut Loose Illegal Alien Wanted for Rape” HERE)

Meet The Biden Official Making Six Figures To Travel The Globe Pushing Transgenderism

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration has empowered a professional activist to travel the globe on the taxpayer’s dime to push transgenderism and gender ideology.

From Australia to Brazil, South Africa to Sweden, Jessica Stern travels across the world attending so-called Pride events as the State Department’s Special Envoy to Advance the Human Rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Persons. Stern, who has boasted that she is the highest ranking lesbian woman, is paid an annual salary of over $180,000 and tasked with promoting far-left views on sex and gender, lobbying foreign governments, and assisting activist organizations.

Appointed by President Biden in September of 2021, Stern’s work has gone largely unnoticed by the media as she bolsters the president’s broader effort to leverage the might of the federal agencies and their bureaucracies in service of a far-left agenda. In Biden’s first weeks as president, he tasked all federal agencies to work to “advance the human rights of LGBTQI+ persons abroad” — Stern has been tip of the spear in that effort, and has stated that this mission is “U.S. foreign policy priority.”

Stern’s travels as Special Envoy have taken her to at least 22 countries on all six of the world’s habitable continents, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Botswana, Canada, Germany, Greece, India, Lithuania, Malaysia, Mauritius, Mexico, Nepal, the Netherlands, Panama, Peru, the Philippines, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, and Vietnam.

“Good foreign policy is inclusive foreign policy, and that means having senior experts on LGBTQI rights,” Stern contended in an interview with the Council on Foreign Relations.
