PRESIDENT BIDEN and his missing point person on the Southern Border, Vice President Harris, continue to ignore the flood of migrant illegals crossing our border, many of them with the Covid virus. They’re being released across the country, thanks to the administration’s open border policy. All while the prez is pushing vaccines to U.S. citizens, even offering financial incentives.
What a disgrace! Biden and his minions are claiming they inherited a broken immigration system. And many Americans are unaware of the appalling sights at the border because the mainstream media is not covering it. They should be ashamed to call themselves journalists.
“CNN’S RATINGS are almost as bad as its journalistic integrity,” writes Matt Margolis in the PJ Media, reporting that the network has gone an entire week without reaching one million viewers.
PONDER THIS – President Biden touted the fact that some 300 million Americans have received the Covid vaccine. That’s nearly the entire population. He wishes. He meant to say that 160 million Americans have received some 300 million injections.
“We choose truth over facts.” – Candidate Joe Biden, August 8, 2019
2020 VOTING IRREGULARITIES continue to surface. The non-partisan Voter Reference Foundation (VRF), in an analysis of the Nevada state voter data revealed a 9,000-vote difference between those marked as having participated in the election and the number of votes actually cast, according to W. J Kennedy, writing in the Silver State Times.
The VRF found that 15 of Nevada’s 17 counties certified more ballots cast than there were individual voters recorded as voting. The largest discrepancies were in Clark and Washoe counties.
We can expect data from other states now being analyzed.
IN WISCONSIN, election officials have deleted more than 205,000 names from voter registration rolls as part of a maintenance check. More than 174,000 of the voters hadn’t voted in the past four years and didn’t respond to a mailing. The deactivation is required under Wisconsin state law, according to a report in The Epoch Times.t
IN MY LAST BLOG, I wrote how the left has been dumping on Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema. You can add Blake Morlock of TucsonSentinel.com to the list. “Now that she’s part of the party in charge,” he writes, “she’s coming off all Stockholm Sinema, eager to please her former oppressors.”
QUESTIONS concerning the killing of Ashli Babbitt in the Capitol building are still flying. Several sources have released the name of Lt. Michael L. Byrd, a 53-year veteran of the Capitol Police as the shooter. He has not returned to duty and remains on paid administrative leave.
The justification of the shooting is still in question since there were several members of a SWAT team directly behind Babbitt, making it abundantly clear that the statement indicating the Capitol Police is not a force trained in riot control techniques.
“The (Capitol Police) is far from being some kind of elite law enforcement body,” the inspector general said. “Its principal function is to assist tourists, maintain decorum in a tourist environment, and help out members of Congress and their staffs.” Responsibilities similar to that of a mall cop.
Questions concerning the alerts provided by the FBI and the lack of Capitol Police preparedness continue. Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has charged Speaker Nancy Pelosi of using the police as political pawns. Evidence of that was clear with the over-the-top memorial given Duane Sicknick, who did not die from injuries on January 6, 2021, and it continues with her select committee investigating the capitol breaching.
There have been two more Capitol Police suicides. One wonders why.
THE SMILING FACES of the auto manufacturing CEOs as President Biden Thursday signed an executive order establishing the goal of making half of all new vehicles sold in the U.S. have zero emissions by 2030, can be traced to the knowledge that the government (that’s us taxpayers) will get $10,000 knocked off the price of an electric vehicle, already priced beyond the means of “Joe Six-Pack.” And there will be subsides for the development of batteries.
Biden also announced stricter fuel economy rules by adopting new Café standards based on those established by California. You may recall that the automakers had begged President Trump to roll back the Obama standards, which all but three couldn’t attain without regulatory credits banked from earlier years. The Harris-Biden administration allows them to continue to roll over some of these credits, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The administration hopes to have electric charging stations at nearly every mile-marker, but with the cutback on fossil fuels, I wonder where those stations will get their power, especially in the winter when solar and wind production will be affected.
MEANWHILE, Biden’s climate guru, John Kerry, is saying that President Trump shattered global trust in the country’s commitment to climate action. “I hear it from country after country, how do we know we can count on America?”
You never hear him talking about those European nations not fulfilling their emission-cutting goals.
Now, more than ever … may God continue to bless the United States of America.
