Majority of Americans Living Paycheck-to-Paycheck in Biden’s America

/9 Comments/in , /by

Results from a recent LendingClub study find that it has become apparent that a significant majority of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck in President Joe Biden’s America. This alarming trend has sparked concerns about the effectiveness of the economic policies underpinning “Bidenomics” and their impact on the financial well-being of average citizens.

The LendingClub study, conducted in December, unveiled some startling statistics. A notable 62% of adults reported living paycheck to paycheck, a concerning increase from 58% in March. Even more surprising, 40% of consumers living this way boast super-prime credit scores, indicating that financial struggles extend beyond those typically associated with low creditworthiness.

Further analysis from the study revealed that 57% of consumers who own credit cards are also living paycheck to paycheck. This data aligns with polling figures showing that a mere 14% of voters believe Biden’s economic policies have personally helped them, while a staggering 85% feel that the policies have either hurt them or made no difference.

A separate survey by TD Bank found that even as credit card debt surpasses $1 trillion, a remarkable 96% of shoppers expect to overspend during the holiday season. The consequences are clear, with half of consumers planning to take on more debt to cover their holiday expenses, as revealed in a report by Ally Bank. Worryingly, only 23% of these consumers have a plan to pay off their debt within one to two months.

As Americans navigate their financial challenges and attempt to celebrate Christmas in the midst of these economic struggles, the findings of the LendingClub study and related reports raise crucial questions about the impact of current economic policies on the everyday lives of citizens.

Biden White House Gets Media to Spread Nazi-Style Propaganda That Trump Is Hitler

/4 Comments/in , /by

Democrats and their friends in the news media have temporarily moved on from the tiresome “Donald Trump is a threat to democracy!” storyline to the all-too-original “Trump is Hitler!”

Making this effort particularly unique, they’re so open about the coordination. The media are usually at least partially discreet about deceiving, lying, and manipulating, but for reasons unclear they’re all perfectly fine with this episode being a transparent conspiracy between the White House and the Washington press.

The big reveal came Tuesday in a Politico article headlined, “Why Biden’s campaign keeps linking Trump to Hitler.” The story stated in earnest that Biden’s campaign “has entered a surreal routine” of “calling [Donald Trump] out” for deploying rhetoric “that historians say reeks of fascism.”

By “historians,” Politico naturally means “White House-approved ‘experts’ who will dutifully repeat that Trump is Hitler.” Sure enough, the story went on to assert “historians say that Trump’s recent comments about immigrants — as well as those likening his political foes to ‘vermin’ — have echoed Hitler’s words.”

For the extra mentally impaired (90 percent of Politico readers), the article explicitly quoted Biden’s campaign communications director claiming that Trump is “going to echo the rhetoric of Hitler and Mussolini, and we’re going to make sure that people understand just how serious that is every single time.” (Read more from “Biden White House Gets Media to Spread Nazi-Style Propaganda That Trump Is Hitler” HERE)

Biden Continues to Trash Israel, Falsely Suggesting It Does Not Avoid Palestinian Civilians

/6 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden continues to suggest, without evidence, that Israel is failing to distinguish between terrorists and civilians in Gaza — even as he expresses support for Israel’s goal of eliminating the Hamas organization that started the war on October 7.

Two weeks ago, Biden accused Israel of “indiscriminate bombing” in remarks to a closed-door meeting with donors in Washington, D.C. Israel rejected the claim, and it was even refuted by ABC News, which found that Israel has in fact used a “historically high level of precision weapons usage in urban warfare.”

On Tuesday, Biden did it again, according to the Times of Israel:

Speaking at a political event, US President Joe Biden says Israel is dealing with unique challenges in its ongoing war against the Gaza-ruling Hamas terror group.

…

Despite these “added burdens,” Biden says Israel must differentiate between Hamas and Palestinian civilians, urging it to work to minimize non-combatant deaths.

Swalwell Appearing to ‘Facilitate’ Hunter Biden to ‘Thumb Nose at Congress’ Worth Scrutiny

/2 Comments/in , /by

The unique presence of Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., at Hunter Biden’s news conference on the Senate side of the Capitol last week raises questions about whether he played a role in the first son defying the House subpoena, a top legal expert said.

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley told Fox News that Hunter Biden knowingly “thumbed his nose at Congress” in a display he called a “slam-dunk case of contempt.” . . .

Turley said there may not have been a crime committed by Swalwell even if Biden is probed for contempt, but that other repercussions could come at the discretion of the House.

“It certainly raises serious questions under the House rules. I’ve never seen anything quite like that,” he said.

“There’s plenty of members that associated with unpopular causes. What’s different here is that Swalwell reserved congressional space… through his office, presumably using his staff, to defy the subpoena, a valid subpoena of the House.” (Read more from “Swalwell Appearing to ‘Facilitate’ Hunter Biden to ‘Thumb Nose at Congress’ Worth Scrutiny” HERE)

Obama Reportedly Fears Biden Could Lose White House in 2024

/6 Comments/in , /by

As President Joe Biden grapples with a series of crises at the close of 2023, doubts about his ability to secure the White House in the upcoming 2024 election have reportedly reached the highest echelons of the Democratic Party. A Wall Street Journal report by Annie Linskey cites an anonymous source revealing that former President Barack Obama is among those questioning Biden’s prospects, expressing concerns about the potential for Democrats to lose the presidency next year.

The anonymous source disclosed that Obama is troubled by the current state of affairs. With former President Donald Trump gaining ground in polls and a range of issues—from age and immigration to Israel policy and economic plans—casting shadows over the Biden administration, Obama reportedly fears that the Democrats “very well could lose” the 2024 election.

According to the report, Obama recognizes the upcoming presidential race as a close one. The source added that the former president is not only troubled by the prospect of a Democratic loss but is also worried about what they described as “the alternative [being] pretty dangerous for democracy.”

David Axelrod, a senior adviser to former President Obama, recently suggested on social media that Biden should step aside, pointing to a New York Times and Siena College poll showing the incumbent trailing behind Trump.

Axelrod noted that it might be “very late to change horses,” but expressed concerns that Biden’s poll numbers could send “tremors of doubt” through the Democratic Party. Axelrod emphasized that the concerns were not mere “bed-wetting” but legitimate worries about the party’s electoral prospects.

The Man Who Drove Into Biden’s Motorcade Was Drunk

/5 Comments/in , /by

. . .On Sunday, someone drove into Joe Biden’s motorcade while leaving his campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware. It wasn’t an assassination attempt or anything, but it was a driving under the influence incident that the driver will never forget (via NY Post):

The driver who plowed into President Biden’s motorcade as he left his campaign headquarters in Delaware Sunday night was charged with driving while under the influence, authorities announced Monday.

James Cooper, 46, of Wilmington, was taken into custody after his silver sedan smashed into an SUV blocking an intersection, Wilmington police said.

Cooper was also charged with inattentive driving in addition to the DUI.

Officials said the crash did not appear to be intentional, with Cooper likely unaware that it was Biden’s motorcade that he had struck, CNN reported.

Hunter’s Latest Stunt May Have Thrown His Dad Into a Messy Tangle, Strategists Say

/7 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden’s decision not to testify for House Republicans could add more fuel to the political fire for his father, GOP strategists and legal experts told the Daily Caller.

The president’s son arrived on Capitol Hill on Dec. 13, making the decision to defy the House Oversight Committee’s subpoena and skip a closed-door interrogation session on his foreign business dealings. Hunter Biden’s latest move will have political ramifications, as it draws more attention to President Joe Biden and his happenings just less than a year out from the 2024 presidential election, GOP strategists and legal experts agreed.

“Nearly every angle on the Hunter Biden story hurts Joe Biden,” Mark R. Weaver, a GOP strategist, told the Daily Caller.

The House Oversight Committee subpoenaed Hunter Biden in November in an effort to have the first son attend a closed-door session to answer questions about his foreign business dealings. Instead, Hunter Biden chose to stand outside the Capitol on Dec. 13, denying President Biden ever played any part in his business dealings while blasting Republicans for bringing an impeachment inquiry on his father.

“[Denying the subpoena] will have the practical effect of drawing attention to his activities. That’s not good for President Biden,” Mike McKenna told the Daily Caller. “Also, the assumption out in the real world is that innocent people don’t refuse to testify.” (Read more from “Hunter’s Latest Stunt May Have Thrown His Dad Into a Messy Tangle, Strategists Say” HERE)

Donors From the Richest Zip Codes in America Are Throwing Their Support Behind Biden

/3 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s primary fundraising arms have received an outsized amount of support from the most expensive zip codes in the country, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation analysis of Federal Election Commission (FEC) records.

The 10 most expensive zip codes by median home value, which accounted for just 0.02% of the population in 2020, were responsible for 7.6% of this year’s donations to the Biden campaign and the Biden Victory Fund, which are the primary committees used by the president’s reelection effort, according to data from the United States Census Bureau and the FEC. The roughly 81,000 people living in those zip codes donated 311 times more to Biden than would be proportionate to their share of the population.

The residents of America’s 10 most expensive zip codes donated a total of $7,519,474 to the Biden campaign and the Biden Victory Fund this year, or roughly $930 per person, according to FEC and Census Bureau records.

Median home prices in these zip codes range from $4.25 million in Rancho Santa Fe, California, on the low end, and up to $7.95 million in Atherton, California, on the high end, according to the Times. The median price of a house in the United States was $412,000 as of September, according to Forbes.

Car Crashes Into Biden’s Motorcade

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden was left unscathed on Sunday night after a vehicle smashed into his motorcade near his campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware.

A car hit a U.S. Secret Service SUV used to block off intersections as Biden made his way from his campaign office to his awaiting vehicle.

The sedan then tried to continue into the closed-off intersection before the Secret Service surrounded the car with weapons, instructing the driver to put his hands up.

The president and First Lady Jill Biden were left unharmed from the incident.

Biden seemed shocked by the loud bang from the collision and paused before being rushed into his vehicle. The First Lady wished reporters a “Happy Holidays” just moments before the accident occurred. (Read more from “Car Crashes Into Biden’s Motorcade” HERE)

Impeachment Leader Accuses Hunter Biden of Creating a ‘Constitutional Crisis’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden is stirring up a “constitutional crisis” by defying a subpoena in the corruption-focused impeachment inquiry against his father, President Joe Biden, according to a top House Republican.

Ways and Means Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO), who is helping to lead the impeachment probe, decried the younger Biden’s antics — speaking at a press event outside the Capitol but not showing up for a scheduled deposition — during an interview with Fox News anchor Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures.”

“If you or I or any other American would do that, we would be prosecuted,” Smith said. He noted that IRS whistleblower testimony has already raised concerns about a “two-tiered justice system” with how the Department of Justice has handled its criminal investigation into Hunter Biden.

“The fact that Hunter Biden was supposed to be in the halls of that building going through a congressional subpoena, through depositions, and he defied that by standing on the footsteps of the Capitol and doing a press conference, the fact that he is the president’s son, and he’s doing that, is creating a very severe constitutional crisis,” Smith added.

Hunter Biden appeared in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday but did not cooperate with a subpoena demanding he participate in a deposition that day. In delivering remarks at the press event outside the U.S. Capitol Building, the president’s son insisted on being given a public hearing instead of a closed-door interview.
