Biden takes heat for using word 'Latinx' in explaining why the population is slow to get vaccinated
[NYPOST] President Joe Biden
... 46th president of the U.S. We get to suffer the consequences......
raised eyebrows Thursday in North Carolina with a bizarre statement in which he claimed that "Latinx" people are less likely to get vaccinated against the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
because "they’re worried that they’ll be vaccinated and deported."

Biden traveled to Raleigh as part of a a nationwide "month of action" campaign meant to boost vaccination rates before the July 4 holiday. However,
Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried...
the president’s exhortation for people to get the shot was overshadowed by his strange aside, in which he also confused the Tuskegee Airmen — the heroic African American pilots of World War II — with the victims of the infamous decades-long Tuskegee syphilis study.

"There’s a reason why it’s been harder to get African-Americans, initially, to get vaccinated," Biden said. "Because they’re used to being experimented on — Tuskegee Airmen and others. People have memories. People have long memories.

"It’s awful hard, as well, to get Latinx vaccinated as well," the president continued. "Why? They’re worried that they’ll be vaccinated and deported."

he is showing signs of mental duress.
Call a BnB and find him a place to destress.
Please don't let it be a place run Latinx
He is too deeply perplexed about Sars-Cov-HIV
and all the BS Fauci said on TV
Joe is slow, on that you can agree,
he is worried about Latinx that they’ll be vaccinated and deported as if Reagan were in
the White House and it's 1983.

Trauma nurse at Texas border town visited by Kamala Harris reveals her hospital is full of migrants suffering broken legs, smashed spines and shattered hips
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Miriam Torres – who works at El Paso's University Medical Center - told DailyMail.com that half her 30 beds are regularly taken by the migrants

  • She said many of them are suffering broken legs, smashed spines and shattered hips due to falling off the border wall as they attempt to cross into the U.S.
    Those kinds of hip and spine injuries have life long impacts on functionality, I imagine.
  • Torres said the hospital is so desperate for space that it is now issuing contracts to care homes to take in the injured migrants during their treatment

  • 'Doctors come in now and just label the patients' charts BWF, standing for border wall fall. It's that routine these days. But it is putting a great strain on the unit'

  • She added: 'When Joe Biden took office, almost immediately we started to see the numbers increasing. It has been overwhelming at times'

  • Vice President Kamala Harris landed in El Paso to visit a border patrol facility on Friday following months of backlash

Joe Biden picks second DOJ nominee with Hunter Biden connection
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. I'm not working for you. Don't be such a horse's ass....
has, for a second time, selected a nominee with ties to his son Hunter Biden
.....son of President Joe: cashiered from the Navy, a crackhead, wheeler dealer, leg humper, horn dog, and general all around ne'er do well. We're supposed to feel sorry for him.....
for a top post at the Justice Department, picking a former longtime partner at the law firm where his son worked for years and that was involved in helping the younger Biden in his business dealings with Burisma.Biden announced on Friday that he had nominated Hampton Dellinger
...a partner at Boies, Schiller & Flexner. Wikipedia. TechDirt has much more on David Boies and his firm including his attack on Linux and going after victims of Weinstein. You can see links to him here ...
a Yale Law School graduate and former deputy attorney general in North Carolina, to be assistant attorney general for DOJ’s Office of Legal Policy. Dellinger’s LinkedIn indicates he founded Hampton Dellinger PLLC in November after working as a partner at Boies, Schiller, and Flexner from May 2013 through last year. Hunter Biden was a counsel at the same firm, starting there in 2010 and reportedly leaving in 2017. In 2014, the president’s son landed the Ukrainian energy giant as a client for the firm and took a lucrative position on its board.

Biden discussed the firm’s involvement in the Burisma saga in his memoir, Beautiful Things.

"I brought Burisma to Boies Schiller Flexner. ... They wanted to see whether Burisma was legit or plagued with corruption before taking them on," he wrote.

Biden Shortchanges Defense Program Aimed at Stopping China
[Free Beacon] The Biden administration in its 2022 defense budget underfunded a vital program dedicated to stopping China from advancing in parts of the Pacific Ocean.

The administration fell about $1 billion short of the $4.7 billion the Pentagon’s Indo-Pacific Command requested. Lawmakers and experts told the Washington Free Beacon the Biden budget's neglect of the program will enable China and discourage allies, putting armed forces in the Pacific in a dangerous position.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.), a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said the Biden budget shows a major "disconnect" between what the Department of Defense needs and what the White House is willing to give it. Blackburn pointed to the Guam Defense System—a massively underfunded program tasked with protecting the more than 160,000 U.S. citizens living on the island—as a major disappointment. The Indo-Pacific Command chief requested $360 million for the Guam system and only received $118.3 million for the program.

"It is our constitutional command to provide for the common defense," Blackburn said. "The Indo-Pacific command chief got less than half of what he asked for. It shows you how far off base they are with this."

Guam’s defense is critical as one of the United States's westernmost holdings in the Pacific, giving the U.S. armed forces significant access to the area where China is closest. China has a complex system of rockets, bombers, and submarines that could leave Guam vulnerable to attack. The difficult terrain of the island and range of Chinese capabilities make Guam a difficult place to defend and standing U.S. defenses may not be sufficient, Missile Defense Agency chief John Hill said in June. In March, Adm. Phil Davidson called Guam a "target today" for China.

Biden Administration Sues Georgia over Election Integrity Law
[Breitbart] The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on Friday that it filed a lawsuit against the State of Georgia over the state’s new voter integrity laws, which were signed in March.

The DOJ alleged the Election Integrity Act of 2021, also known as SB 202, was created for the purpose of "denying or abridging the right to vote on account of race." Attorney General Merrick Garland is pursuing action against the state by challenging provisions of the bill under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.

"The Justice Department’s lawsuit alleges that the cumulative and discriminatory effect of these laws—particularly on Black voters—was known to lawmakers and that lawmakers adopted the law despite this," The DOJ contented in a release.
The department specifically said it is challenging absentee ballot restrictions, reduction of drop boxes, and voter ID requirements, among other new provisions.

Notably, the lawsuit is one of the first actions taken by the newly minted Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke, who runs the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ. She became a controversial figure during her nomination after statements she made while attending Harvard as an undergraduate resurfaced. In a letter to the Harvard Crimson she claimed Black people are mentally and physically superior, Fox News reported.
The Democrat-Communist Party refuses to wean from their racism bottle.
The Heritage Foundation debunked several Democrat myths surrounding Georgia’s new election laws in April, "which the radical left has falsely described as a voter suppression bill harkening to the era of Jim Crow," Breitbart News previously reported.

Additionally, polls show close to 80 percent of voters, including more than 60 percent of black voters, support voter ID.

Pennsylvania Senate Passes Constitutional Amendment to Require Voter ID for All Ballots
[Epoch Times] The Pennsylvania Senate on June 23 passed a bill that would amend the state constitution to require that voters present identification each time they cast a ballot.

The measure, SB735, passed in a 30—20 vote, mostly along partisan lines. The proposal was backed by all Republicans and a single Democrat.

Currently, state voters are only required to present identification the first time they vote at a polling station. The measure would require some form of verification every time a ballot is cast, including when voting by mail. It also proposes amending the voting age in the Pennsylvania Constitution from 21 to 18, making it consistent with the U.S. Constitution.

If both houses of the legislature approve a proposed amendment, or if it is adopted by a state constitutional convention, the measure is put on the ballot in a general election. If a majority of voters then approve, the state constitution is amended.

Pelosi: 'Root Causes' of Capitol 'Insurrection' Were 'White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, Islamophobia'
Voting in a veto-proof Republican majority in both Houses of Congress would be the very best revenge, even if that requires accepting a few RINOs instead of the nearly identical Democrats. The lady absolutely reflects the character and abilities of the voters who elected her.
[PJMEDIA] Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
spoke today about "the root causes" of the January 6 Capitol riot: "the white supremacy
...the pernicious doctrine that laws were intended to be obeyed, that society works better when people don't pour shreiking from their places of worship every Friday for a weekend of rioting over insults real or imagined; and that cannibalism, beastiality, incest, murder, theft, rape, and similar activities are bad. A Dead White European (which invalidates his opinion) philosopher once opined that societies thrive when a person's word can be relied upon, and that a society which puts individual happiness first will invariably fail. Strangely enough, other successful societies, such as China, Japan, Korea, and those kinds of places could also be lumped with white supremacist societies, since they push the same values...
, the anti-Semitism, the Islamophobia
...the irrational fear that Moslems will act the way they usually do...
, all the rest of it that was so evident when you see a sweatshirt on one of the people saying, ’Camp Auschwitz.’" She repeated the common and yet completely unsubstantiated claim that the Capitol incident constituted an "insurrection," and once again claimed that Trump "incited" the "insurrection," in flagrant disregard for the fact that Trump told the demonstrators to remain peaceful. Her list of the three "root causes" of this sham "insurrection" were, in effect, a list of those that she and the Biden Justice Department intend to go after, and the charges they will hang over their heads in the Stalinist show trials that could be in the offing.

As many have pointed out, this was no insurrection. No one has even been charged with such an offense. The protesters were unarmed. The claim that they used a fire extinguisher to murder a police officer, although repeated far and wide, has been completely debunked. The idea that the great mass of people who entered the Capitol on January 6 and stood around snapping pictures and gawking at statues were there to overthrow the government at the behest of a rogue president is a paranoid Leftist fantasy, not a reality.

And it’s a paranoid Leftist fantasy with a purpose. The Capitol riot is really Leftists’ Reichstag Fire moment, and they’re clearly going to use it to demonize, stigmatize, and silence all opposition to their agenda. Pelosi’s inclusion of the terms "anti-Semitism" and "Islamophobia" among the root causes of the riot makes that clear. The protesters who entered the Capitol building weren’t there because they hated Jews or Moslems or anyone else. The protests weren’t remotely about such matters. The protesters were in Washington to demonstrate against an election that was marred by numerous obvious irregularities, and which is still being investigated as a result, despite the establishment media’s furious efforts to brand all questioning of the election’s integrity as a "Big Lie." If it were a Big Lie, there wouldn’t be such massive evidence of voter fraud, or audits going on in several key states and possibly more to come.

Biden whispers repeatedly during 'really creepy' Q&A
[NYPOST] President Joe Biden
...... 46th president of the U.S. I'm not working for you. Don't be such a horse's ass.......
on Thursday repeatedly whispered to news hounds during an impromptu presser at the White House — drawing bemused social media speculation and jokes about the "really creepy" exchanges.

On three separate occasions, Biden hunched over his lectern in the White House East Room and forcefully whispered to news hounds.

The awkward delivery seemed designed to emphasize his points while discussing a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure deal.

When asked about additional relief for families, Biden whispered toward PBS news hound Yamiche Alcindor: "I got them $1.9 trillion in relief so far. They’re going to be getting checks in the mail that are consequential this week for childcare."

Later, when asked by CNN
...the organization formerly known as the Cable News Network. Now who knows what it might stand for...
news hound Phil Mattingly about how the deal was brokered despite low expectations, Biden said in a normal speaking voice that he always thought the outlook was good.

"I’m not going to negotiate with the press when I’m negotiating privately with my colleagues. And these are very tough decisions. I don’t in any way dismiss what Sen. [Chris] Murphy [D-Conn.] says about the environment. I don’t dismiss it at all," Biden said.

Dropping to a whisper and stooping his head as his eyes grew wide, Biden added: "I wrote the bill on the environment. Why would I not be for it?"

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Anti-Netanyahu protest group closes shop after ex-PM ousted: ‘We won’
[IsraelTimes] With swearing in of new government that saw Israel’s longest-serving premier replaced, Black Flag movement declares ’immediate threat to Israeli democracy has been removed’.
These creatures of the Obama wing of the Democratic Party think they got what they’ve been harassing everyone for. But Naftali Bennett appears to be just a younger, hipper version of Bibi, so the Black Bloc tools haven’t really won anything. One can only hope he now starts jailing the vicious idiots for all the misbehaviours that Bibi was forced to tolerate.
A group that helped lead protests over the past year against Benjamin Netanyahu announced Thursday it would halt operations, declaring victory after a new government that saw former premier replaced as prime minister was sworn in.

"The State of Israel has set out on a new path," the Black Flag movement wrote on its Facebook page. "The immediate threat to Israeli democracy has been removed. We won."

The organization was one of several prominent activist groups that helped lead the rallies against Netanyahu, who the demonstrators called on to resign over his criminal trial on corruption charges. Netanyahu denies wrongdoing in the cases.

"A criminal defendant kidnapped the country and embarked on a campaign in which he planned to dismantle the judicial system, use the Israel Police as an enforcement arm of his rule and turn all of us into his dependents," the group claimed.

It added: "Without the uncompromising struggle of all us we wouldn’t have reached this day... without you the defendant would still be in the prime minister’s chair and Israeli democracy would be under existential threat."

The group also said its members "are now setting aside the black flag and proudly waving the flag of the State of Israel."

Other protest groups vowed to continue demonstrating despite Netanyahu’s ouster as prime minister.

"We’ll continue to act in the public sphere to eradicate governmental corruption of all stripes and to strengthen democracy," the Crime Minister organization was quoted saying by the Ynet news site.

The main protest site over the past year was outside the Prime Minister’s Residence in Jerusalem, where thousands regularly rallied each Saturday night after Shabbat. Smaller protests were also held near Netanyahu’s private home in the coastal town of Caesaria and at highway overpasses, junctions and other sites across the country.

Netanyahu’s run of 12 consecutive years in office was ended on June 13 when an unlikely alliance of right-wing, left-wing, centrist and Islamist parties swore in a new government with a razor-thin majority. The ex-premier, Israel’s longest-serving leader, is now Knesset opposition chief and has vowed to swiftly bring down the power-sharing government led by Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Foreign Minister Yair Lapid.
