Joe Biden Resumes Construction of Trump's Border Wall

 Joe Biden Resumes Construction of Trump's Border Wall (theintercept.com)

The Biden administration laid out its plans to rev up work on completing Donald Trump’s signature project 

"MYLES TRAPHAGEN DIDN’T need a government presentation to tell him that border wall construction was kicking back up. He saw everything he needed on a recent visit to the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge and the Coronado National Forest, near the town of Sasabe in southern Arizona.

"As the borderlands coordinator for the Wildlands Network, Traphagen had visited the area many times before. It was among the sites he examined in an extensive report published in July documenting the environmental impact of the border wall expansion under President Donald Trump — President Joe Biden paused the construction shortly after his inauguration.

"Traphagen spotted a new staging area and water holding tanks under construction. Fixed to the wall were new signs citing an Arizona trespassing law. A security guard at the scene told him construction was resuming. Later, a Border Patrol agent ordered him to leave the area.". . .

Trump Hints He’ll Raid Clinton And Obama If He Retakes The White House

 UK: Conservative Post  "Former President Donald Trump signaled that he intends to capitalize on the FBI’s Mar-a-Lago raid – sharing an op-ed that predicting Republicans might exact vengeance by using law enforcement to go after Democrats Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

"Trump shared without comment an op-ed by loyalist and conservative columnist Kimberly Strassel in the Wall Street Journal, whose work he has frequently promoted in the past.

"The writer describes a ‘boomerang history of unleashed governmental powers,’ observing that Republicans used a post-watergate independent counsel statute to go after President Bill Clinton in a warning to the party that currently has unified control of government.

"In an email from his Save America PAC, Trump tweeted the article’s headline: ‘The Payback for Mar-a-Lago Will Be Brutal.’

"She posits that the Trump probe, which she brands as political and breaking norms on ‘sensitive’ investigations close to an election, could come back at Democrats if Republicans take charge.

"‘Mr. Garland’s raid has made even the highest political figures fair prosecutorial game, and the media’s new standard is that the department can’t be questioned as it goes about ensuring ‘no one is above the law,” she writes about AG Merrick Garland.

" ‘Let’s see how that holds when a future Republican Justice Department starts raiding the homes of Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Eric Holder, James Comey, and John Brennan,’ she writes, referencing Obama’s former attorney general, the FBI director Trump fired, and former CIA director who has gone after Trump on Twitter.". . .

Rob Reiner shows how Hitler did it

Biden and Obama guided Reiner's hatred of Republicans. They use that hatred to gain power and to subdue the political opposition. Reiner is so self-righteous about standing up to fascism that he does not realize he is paving the way for the real fascists to roll in on tanks.

Meathead

 Don Surber   "We are taught that Hitler's followers were stupid and naïve. But the elitists of the day also backed Hitler. The industrialists and the media did his bidding. We are told his supporters were lower-class losers. But educated, skilled and successful people also supported him and his attempt to eradicate the world of Jewish people. The military supported him too.

"We are taught that Hitler mesmerized his followers. It was all that darned Hitler's fault. After the war, we created a fantasy that there was a place called Nazi Germany that did all the damage. We took the blame off Germany.

"But no, Germans did this. They beat the Jews in the streets. They ran the cattle cars. They wanted to be the master race.

"It is hard to fathom how a nation fell like this, until you look at someone who is falling for the fascism that has fallen upon America.

"The best example I can find is Rob Reiner. I can argue that he is a fine film director. I base this on 40 years of work across a wide range of movie genres. He started with This Is Spinal Tap (a mockumentary) then came Stand by Me (a coming of age film) then The Princess Bride (an adult fairy tale) then When Harry Met Sally... (a rom-com) then Misery (a horror film) then A Few Good Men (a courtroom drama) then The American President (a romance) then The Bucket List (a road picture).". . .

White House Again Walks Back on Biden Statement That US Would Defend Taiwan From Chinese Invasion

JustTheNews  "President Biden and his administration again appear to be at odds over the country's support for Taiwan amid its and China's escalating military posture with each other.

. . .During a pre-taped CBS "60 Minutes" interview aired Sunday night with President Biden, he was asked whether U.S. troops would defend Taiwan if China invades.

" 'Yes, if in fact there was an unprecedented attack," Biden replied.

"The interview was interrupted with a voiceover saying a White House official said after interview that "U.S. policy has not changed" and the government will not officially say whether U.S. troops would intervene in Taiwan, according to the Daily Wire.

"A similar situation occurred in May when the president delivered similar remarks in Tokyo.

" 'So unlike Ukraine, to be clear, sir, U.S. Forces, U.S. men and women would defend Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion?" interview Scott Pelley also asked.

" 'Yes," the president responded.

"Biden also said he agrees with the "One China policy," to which the White House was likely referring. The policy acknowledges but does not endorse the Chinese Communist Party's view that Taiwan is part of China. 

" 'Taiwan makes their own judgments about their independence," Biden also said. "We’re not encouraging their being independent. ... That’s their decision.' ". . .

How to Talk to a Wokester

Conservatives reply to woke objections with a modest offering of facts that undo the woke narrative—and get nowhere. Here’s a better way

American Greatness (amgreatness.com)  . . ."And there lies the weak spot of the woke brigade: the pretension to moral superiority through better knowledge. They believe they have better hearts because they have better minds, and that’s an assumption that easily collapses. It points the way to a different response than argument. 

"Instead of challenging the Wokester's knowledge, let’s go with the wokester’s knowledge and draw it out. Let her school us, let her show us her certainty and let’s accept her duty to instruct the ignorant. She wants to be a pedagogue; we shall accept the position of pupil. 

"The model is Socrates, who comes to many dialogues as one who knows nothing and desires enlightenment. He asks simple questions and listens closely to the answers. The other participants believe they grasp the truth firmly, but as his queries continue, their confidence begins to wane. They speak at first as ordinary folk who nonetheless possess common sense, or as experts in a subject, such as Ion the rhapsode on the topic of Homer. They are complacent until the dialectic leads them to acknowledge their error.

"Take the same approach with the wokester. If she brings up the Native American issue, ask her in all innocence why those cavalry officers were often flanked by native scouts helping them track down other tribes.". . . 

On Cartoons, Wokesters Once Again Miss the Point (townhall.com)

Thus, it never occurred to me, as a little boy watching Pepe Le Pew cartoons on Saturday morning, to find his behavior acceptable, much less imitate it. Viewing his overly-amorous antics in light of what my parents had taught me about male-female relationships—and therein, perhaps, lies the key—I understood just the opposite: It was clear that Pepe was a cad, that no man should treat women that way, and that any man who did was—what else?—a skunk. That was the message I received because it was the message intended by the storytellers.

Cleanup on Aisle 46: Joe Biden makes a mess of his 60 Minutes interview

  Monica Showalter; American Thinker  . . ."That's quite a string of errors and messes for just one interview.  Based on this interview, it's pretty obvious to the public why he doesn't give many interviews.

"But it's also pretty indicative of how inchoate and foolish Biden really is.  How is it that Biden can score an interview with the softest of the softball players at 60 Minutes, with the fawningest of the fawning interviewers, and still blow it?

"It's not just a bad night for Joe; it's the entire pattern of the administration.  Don't forget that when Kamala Harris sat down to give an interview to NBC's Lester Holt about her handing of the border crisis as its czar, Harris made one blunder after another to her fawning interviewer.

"If this is how badly they do with fawners and flatterers and lickspittles, all of whom will do anything to make them look good, how would these people handle a real interviewer with real questions, of the kind the public is answering?  They can't even handle the fawners without making messes for themselves and their administration.  Imagine them in a room with real journalists.

"It goes to show that the Biden administration really has no business being in office or power, simply on competence grounds alone."

The Border is Secure Says Kamala Harris

 The Border is Secure Says Kamala Harris - The Lid (lidblog.com)   "The entire leadership of our nation is delusional, not to mention malevolent. Their agenda for open borders is obvious.VP Kamala Harris claims that the border is secure, as does the White House Press Secretary. So let’s go through a few things that should remind everyone that they are full of donkey poop.  "The “Border is secure.”

"People who live in border towns are afraid. Illegal Aliens tromping through their properties are killing dogs, stealing things, and even assaulting people. The property owners are arming themselves. The migrants leave piles of trash behind as well. It is not safe either for ranchers or residents."

"The White House blasted Red State governors Thursday for busing illegal aliens to New York and Chicago. Sending the busload of aliens to Martha's Vineyard Tuesday was hilarious. Reacting quickly to the crisis this week, Kamala Harris flew to Buffalo to check out the situation at the border for herself."  Argus Hamilton

UPDATED: Obama, Martha's Vineyard Celebs Silent on Opening up Island Homes to Illegal Immigrants

Obama, Martha's Vineyard Celebs Silent on Opening up Island Homes to Illegal Immigrants (resistthemainstream.org)

"Charity begins at home is a universal axiom that wealthy Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, residents apparently do not subscribe to.

"Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) sent two planes with 50 illegal aliens to the exclusive island community Wednesday, which stunned island residents. Within days, almost all of the newly arrived border jumpers had been bussed to a Cape Cod military base.

“States like Massachusetts, New York and California will better facilitate the care of these individuals who they have invited into our country by incentivizing illegal immigration through their designation as ‘sanctuary states’ and support for the Biden administration’s open border policies,” DeSantis spokeswoman Taryn Fenske said.

"President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama won commanding majorities of island voters in their respective presidential campaigns.

"Yet, when the 50 illegal aliens landed at Martha’s Vineyard, a community tourism Twitter account called their arrival a “humanitarian crisis.”. . .

Martha’s Vineyard Liberals Scream 'Not in my Backyard!' - American Thinker

  Imagine if Gov. DeSantis sent a few busloads of illegal immigrants to Hyannisport and dropped them off in front of the Kennedy and Koch estates. Sen. Kennedy pushed through the 1965 Immigration Reform Act and subsequent legislation which gave us chain migration, refugee programs, blanket amnesty, an immigration lottery, and H-1B visas. But he didn’t want these immigrants anywhere near him. Just like with unsightly windmills, Sen. Kennedy would have not allowed unsightly illegal immigrants to camp out in front of his gated estate. He would smugly tell America, “walls for me, but not for thee.”
