Israel War: Biden Has ‘No Confidence’ in Gaza Death Numbers

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden said he has “no confidence” that the death toll provided by Palestinian authorities is accurate.

The Palestinian Health Ministry, which is overseen by Hamas, claims that 6,546 Gazans have been killed since Oct. 7, with 17,439 wounded. They also claim that another 100 Palestinians in the West Bank have been killed over the same period, with 1,650 wounded. However, Biden cast doubt on the veracity of those figures on Wednesday when presented with the figures by PBS correspondent Laura Barrón-López.

“In the 18 days since Hamas killed 1,400 Israelis, the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry says Israeli forces have killed over 6,000 Palestinians, including 2,700 children,” Barrón-López said. “You’ve previously asked Netanyahu to minimize civilian casualties. Do these numbers say to you that he’s ignoring that message?”

“What they say to me is I have no notion that the Palestinians are telling the truth about how many people are killed,” Biden responded.

“I’m sure innocents have been killed, and it’s the price of waging a war,” he continued. (Read more from “Israel War: Biden Has ‘No Confidence’ in Gaza Death Numbers” HERE)

Only 3 Percent of Americans Have Gotten the New COVID Shot

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration’s campaign to convince Americans to get an annual Covid shot is off to a very slow start.

Even so, the nation’s top disease-fighting official says the U.S. remains “on track” to hit last year’s uptake levels, which crested at just 17 percent of the U.S. population.

So far, 12 million people, or about 3.6 percent of the population, have gotten the shot in the five weeks since it hit pharmacy shelves — though reporting lags mean it’s likely a bit higher, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Mandy Cohen said.

More people, by far — 16 million — have gotten their annual flu vaccine, Cohen said, attributing the difference to long-held routines. (Read more from “Only 3 Percent of Americans Have Gotten the New COVID Shot” HERE)

Biden Associate at Center of China Money Transfers Played Golf With Joe up to a Dozen Times, FBI Docs Show

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden’s former business associate Rob Walker, who wired money from China to Biden family members, played golf with Joe Biden between “eight to twelve times,” he told the FBI in a December 2020 transcribed interview.

Walker spoke to the FBI about his role in Hunter Biden’s business enterprise with Chinese partners and described his golf outings with Joe Biden, according to a partially redacted transcript of his FBI interview.

“Okay. Have you met the V.P.?” FBI agent Wilson, whose first name is redacted in the transcript, asked.

“Yes,” Walker replied. Wilson appeared to press Walker about his interactions with Joe Biden.

“I mean I would get called and I’d.., I’d play golf with him probably eight to twelve times,” Walker stated.

WATCH: Biden Enjoys Breezy Beach Walks as Middle East Explodes

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden has been seen in pictures and videos enjoying a weekend of walks on Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, as Hamas terrorists pushed their campaign of destruction against Israel and the U.S. placed additional troops on prepare-to-deploy orders to the Middle East.

One short clip shows the octogenarian and first lady Jill Biden strolling the Atlantic beachfront on Sunday while a reporter off screen asks him about the release of Americans being held hostage by Hamas terrorists.

Biden cheerily waves towards the reporter but does not stop to answer questions before continuing his jocund seaside perambulation.

Senator Says Biden’s $100B Request That Includes Aid for Gaza Is ‘Dead on Arrival’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), who works closely with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, said Friday that President Joe Biden’s request for $105 billion in foreign aid doesn’t stand a chance to pass the Senate in its current form.

Biden announced the foreign aid package that sends $60 billion to Ukraine and includes $3.5 billion for Gaza during his address to the nation on Thursday. The president touted the package as vital support for Israel as well, but the majority of the funds would go to Ukraine. While Ukraine would receive $60 billion under the aid package, Israel would be sent $14 billion for “sharpen[ing] Israel’s military edge,” to replenish its Iron Dome, and to send a message to Iran that the U.S. stands with Israel, Biden said.

“President Biden’s slush fund proposal is dead on arrival, just like his budgets. We will not spend, for example, $3.5 billion to address the ‘potential needs of Gazans,’ essentially functioning as a resupply line for Hamas terrorists,” Cotton said in a statement.

“We will also not spend $11.8 billion to fund the Ukrainian government’s own non-war spending, such as funding retirement pensions for Ukrainian government employees,” the senator added. “Nor will we spend $4.7 billion for housing, transportation, and ‘services’ for illegal aliens in the United States rather than deporting them.” (Read more from “Senator Says Biden’s $100B Request That Includes Aid for Gaza Is ‘Dead on Arrival’” HERE)

$200K Payment to Joe Biden From Brother James Appears Linked to Family Business

/0 Comments/in , /by

Evidence exists of a $200,000 payment to now-President Joe Biden — in 2018, before his election to the White House — from his brother, James Biden, and James’ wife, Sara Biden, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) revealed Friday.

The revelation shows Joe Biden personally accepting money from his family’s overseas business ventures, despite denying his involvement in the business at least nine times. “Where is the money? Joe Biden asked reporters in September. Comer believes he found some.

“A document that we’re releasing today raises new questions about how President Biden personally benefited from his family’s shady influence peddling of his name and their access to him,” Comer said in a video released on X. “Bank records obtained by the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability have revealed a $200,000 direct payment from James and Sara Biden to Joe Biden in the form of a personal check.” . . .

Comer will now investigate if Joe Biden has a loan document proving he lent money to his brother and if the president had similar arrangements with other family members. (Read more from “$200K Payment to Joe Biden From Brother James Appears Linked to Family Business” HERE)

White House Posts – Then Deletes – Photo Outing Special Operators Working to Free Hamas Hostages; Media Gaffe Could Put Operators’ Lives ‘In Danger,’ Special Operations Group Says

/0 Comments/in , /by

By New York Post. The Biden administration admitted Thursday that it had accidentally outed the identities of several US special operators working to help Israel find and rescue hostages taken by Hamas terrorists.

In one of the more egregious examples of the old adage, “loose lips sink ships,” the White House posted a photo to its official Instagram account of President Biden shaking the hand of a member of the Army’s elite counter terrorism unit.

Along with the service member Biden was greeting, the faces of three other Delta Force fighters could be seen in the photo.

The soldier shaking hands with Biden also revealed a distinctive set of tattoos on his right arm.

The revealing photograph was up for approximately an hour before officials were made aware of the problem, a White House spokesperson told The Post. (Read more from “White House Posts – Then Deletes – Photo Outing Special Operators Working to Free Hamas Hostages” HERE)

Biden White House’s Media Gaffe Could Put Operators’ Lives ‘In Danger,’ Special Operations Group Says

By Daily Caller. The head of an organization that represents special operators said a White House social media misstep that exposed special operators could put the lives of those servicemembers at risk in exclusive comments to the Daily Caller News Foundation on Thursday.

On Wednesday night, the White House social media account posted, and then deleted, a photo of President Joe Biden meeting with special forces personnel in Israel that exposed their faces — and thus identities. David Cook, the executive director for the Special Operations Association of America, told the DCNF the security breach could not only endanger the lives and careers of the operators exposed in the photo but give Hamas, whom the U.S. is helping Israel defeat, a “huge propaganda win.”

“I don’t even know what to say. These are horrible operational security failures,” Cook told the DCNF.

“The risk is high. These guys that got pictured, it could ruin their careers. They could put their families in danger. It could put them in danger,” Cook told the DCNF.

Modern facial recognition technology aside, photos that did circulate blacking out the operators’ faces still showed tattoos, watches and other identifying details. Adversaries could easily exploit this information to target the operators or their families, Cook said.

Biden Warns Allies Against ‘Islamophobia’ and ‘Antisemitism’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden used his Oval Office speech to warn the nation — and his Muslim and Jewish supporters — against mutual hatred as Israel prepares to smash a Muslim terror group.

“We must without equivocation, denounce antisemitism: We must also without equivocation denounce Islamophobia,” he said in his address to the nation, adding:

And to all you hurting, those of you hurting, I want you to know I see you. You belong. And I want to say this to you — you’re all American, you’re all American.

Biden is preparing to run for reelection and needs to minimize disagreements within his increasingly diverse coalition.

“In moments like these, when fear and suspicion, anger and rage run hard, we have to work harder than ever to hold on to the values that make us who we are,” he said as he called for sectarian unity amid his policy of accelerating diversity via immigration[.]

Biden Rambles When Asked on Air Force One About Meeting Survivors of Israel Terror Attack

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Daily Wire. President Joe Biden rambled while talking to reporters on Air Force One late Wednesday night after meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel following the deadly Palestinian terrorist attacks there last weekend.

Biden was asked by a reporter about how meeting survivors and first responders on the trip impacted him.

“Look, I spent an hour and a half about with the 17 or 18 before and–, I don’t know how to say this,” he said. “Virtually every–, mass shooting–, every–, circumstance where large number of people have been victimized and lost, I’ve spoken with them.”

“I learned a long time ago, but you all learned in your life as well, when someone’s going through something that is beyond their comprehension — that they never thought they’d have to go through — if they see someone who they think understands or maybe been through something not the same but similar, it gives them some sense of hope,” he said. “And I always get criticized sometimes by my staff because when I go to these events, I stay for three or four hours and answer all their questions, but it matters.”

Biden to Seek ‘Unprecedented’ Israel Aid Package; Pledges $100 Million for Humanitarian Relief in Gaza and West Bank

By CNBC. President Joe Biden reaffirmed America’s commitment to Israel on Wednesday in Tel Aviv, where he blamed a deadly hospital blast on militants inside Gaza.

“Based on the information we’ve seen to date, it appears it was a result of an errant rocket fired by a terrorist group in Gaza,” he said.

Biden also committed $100 million in humanitarian assistance to Gaza and the West Bank, to support the more than 1 million people displaced by the ongoing conflict.

The president said he planned to ask Congress for an “unprecedented support package for Israel’s defense” but did not elaborate.

Biden arrived in Tel Aviv hours after an explosion killed hundreds of people taking shelter at the al-Ahli Arab Baptist Hospital in Gaza. (Read more from “Biden to Seek ‘Unprecedented’ Israel Aid Package; Pledges $100 Million for Humanitarian Relief in Gaza and West Bank” HERE)
