Ann Coulter: "I Read Biden's Build Back Better Plan And... Oh, My God"

Townhall

Thus, for example, a program that is -- again -- meant to remunerate workers whose jobs were shipped abroad will now offer assistance to public sector employees. How does a government employee lose a job at all -- much less to trade? (I only wish we had Chinese people running our grade schools.)

"The White House's official press release announcing the Build Back Better Act (BBB) pitches it as a "PLAN TO REBUILD THE MIDDLE CLASS." It rhapsodizes about "working families" squeezed by the economy, and reminds voters that "Biden promised to rebuild the backbone of the country -- the middle class."

"A cartoon illustrates the sort of person who would benefit from Biden's Build Back Better programs: "Linda," a white woman, who works at a manufacturing plant but struggles to raise her son, "Leo."

"One thing the White House's official press release did not mention is that almost all of the $2 trillion doled out under BBB is expressly designated for Black, Latino, Native American, Asian American, Pacific Islander and non-English speaking individuals. White Americans will get nothing and like it.

"Over and over again, the bill is written expressly NOT to help the hardworking Linda, apparently because she is white. Here are just a few examples:". . . 

Defense Moves for Mistrial in Kyle Rittenhouse Case; Judge to Prosecutor: ‘I Don’t Believe You!’

 Breitbart

The defense in the murder trial of Kyle Rittenhouse in Kenosha, Wisconsin, moved Wednesday afternoon for a mistrial based on the prosecution’s violations of the defendant’s rights and the judge’s previous rulings about admissible evidence.

Defense attorney Corey Chirafisi asked Judge Bruce Schroeder to declare a mistrial “with prejudice,” which would prevent prosecutors from bringing the charges again. That provision, Chirafisi claimed, was necessary to prevent prosecutors from deliberately ruining their own case to get “another kick at the cat.” He said that prosecutors, led by Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger, had acted in “bad faith” — a key element of dismissal with prejudice.

The motion came after a lunch break, and after Judge Schroeder had admonished the prosecution that it had committed a “grave constitutional violation” by referring to Rittenhouse’s previous silence, which conflicts with his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent.

Earlier, the following exchange took place:

Defense attorney: Your Honor — I don’t want the jury to hear — he’s commenting on my client’s right to remain silent.

Prosecutor: No, Your Honor. I am making the point that after hearing everything in the case, now he’s tailoring his story to what has already been introduced. . . .

‘Age-Related Cognitive Decline’: Former WH Doctor Talks Biden, Says Obama Wrote Him ‘Scathing’ Email Over ‘Betrayal’

 Daily Wire 

"The first-term lawmaker said the event showed how the media and Democrats have a double standard when judging presidents. He viewed Trump as strong-minded but convinced him to take a cognitive test to quiet critics. He said Trump answered all questions correctly. But when he called for the same thing for Biden, he was assailed."

   "Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX), a former White House physician who served under former Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump, said last week that President Joe Biden, who turns 79 this month, has “age-related cognitive decline” and is not “mentally fit” to serve as president.

"Jackson, speaking on a podcast with Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN), also said that he received a “scathing” email from Obama accusing him of “betrayal” for talking about Biden’s mental state in the past.

“ 'All I know is that he’s got age-related cognitive decline, right. He is not mentally fit right now,” Jackson said on the podcast, the Washington Examiner reported. “He’s 78 years old and you can see it. You don’t need to be a physician to look at him and to look at his behavior and some of the other stuff, just the way he shuffles away, stares off into space.' ” . . .

Inflation hits 30 year high to become Biden’s latest crisis; Manchin says DC ‘can no longer ignore’ pain

 

BPR  "Inflation has officially become the latest crisis to hit the Biden administration as U.S. consumer prices rose at the fastest annual pace in more than 30 years, squeezing American families on food, gas, and energy just before the holidays hit.

"A myriad of woes are afflicting Biden as the supply chain bogs down and shortages become prevalent in America. Many experts contend that the current inflation is not “transitory” as Biden asserts and have severe doubts about his claim that the Build Back Better agenda will alleviate inflation.

"The consumer price index rose an astonishing 6.2% year over year in October, according to the Labor Department. That is the largest annual gain since November of 1990. Prices reportedly jumped 0.9% month over month.

"Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) is calling out Biden over inflation. He tweeted on Wednesday, “By all accounts, the threat posed by record inflation to the American people is not ‘transitory’ and is instead getting worse. From the grocery store to the gas pump, Americans know the inflation tax is real and DC can no longer ignore the economic pain Americans feel every day.' ". . . 

 

Fears from the Rittenhouse Trial

MOB JUSTICE: Judge, Jurors Threatened in Rittenhouse, Daunte Wright Trials  . . ."George Floyd’s nephew, Cortez Rice, has issued veiled threats to the jurors in the Kyle Rittenhouse case, with the support of Unicorn Riot, an antifa affiliated organization.  “I ain’t even gonna name the people that I know that’s up in the Kenosha trial,” Rice said. “But it’s cameras in there. It’s definitely cameras up in there. There’s definitely people taking pictures of the juries and everything like that. We know what’s going on.” “so we need the same results, man.” said Rice in a video released today.  Rice has a history of intimidating jurors and judges in prominent cases, coordinating with antifa and BLM activists.  In the Daunte Wright case, Rice located the apartment of the female judge presiding over the case and stood outside the door of her home.". . .

 Here is why the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse matters to every American "Why should you care about the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse? The answer is simple. Because his case is at the heart of the Bill of Rights, and a harbinger of future actions against the Second Amendment. It reaches the very soul of America. As well as the brave men and women who fought to secure the Greatest Nation on earth."

 "Whether it is self-defense against a robber, murderer, a band of marauding Indians or Antifa, and even an out-of-control government. The Second Amendment was written to allow citizens the God-given right to defend themselves against such evil.

"And that is exactly what Kyle Rittenhouse did. And it is why the left needs to punish him for using his God-given rights, as protected by our Constitution. A constitution that does not limit that right by age. You see, when the Constitution was written it was expected that young men of 14, 15, and 16 would be armed and know how to use those weapons to defend themselves." . . .

A disgraceful prosecution finally rested in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial

 

Communities Digital News

Andrea Widburg  "On Tuesday, the Kyle Rittenhouse prosecution rested its case after its witnesses once again strongly supported Kyle's assertion that he only acted in self-defense.  In a righteous world, the judge would, on his own initiative, order a directed verdict in Kyle's favor.  Instead, it emerged that there's a plan to terrorize the jurors (and, by implication, the judge).  Also the mainstream media, of course, pretended the prosecution had actually proved its case.

"Once again, I've turned to Andrew Branca's excellent post summarizing what happened at the trial, and, again, I'm just skimming the surface of his analysis.  To orient those of you who haven't been following this, Kyle Rittenhouse borrowed a rifle, gathered his medical kit, and headed to Kenosha in the wake of the Jacob Blake riots.  His goal was to help clean up the damage, offer first aid, and protect businesses from being destroyed.  Instead, he shot three White communist felons, two of whom died.  Video footage supported the claim of self-defense, and, as the six days of trial have shown, witness testimony did, too.

"The prosecution put on two final witnesses before resting its case: James Armstrong, an imaging expert witness, and Doug Kelley, M.D., who performed autopsies on the two men Kyle killed.  Armstrong was a substantively useless witness, while Kelley's evidence affirmatively helped the defense.  I'll ignore Armstrong and focus on Kelley.

"One of the things Kelley testified about was whether the decedents were near or far from Kyle when he shot them.  If they were within inches of the gun, there'd be soot around the wounds; if they were within four feet of the gun, there'd be gunpowder stippling; and if they were farther away, all those marks would be missing." . . .

Flustered Adam Schiff Tries to Squirm Out of His Debunked Steele Dossier Comments

Townhall

As Guy also pointed out, Schiff is pretty much the last person to lecture anyone on lies surrounding Russian collusion.

"Joining The View as a guest host on Tuesday, former State Department Spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus confronted Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) over his actions to further the lies contained in the Steele Dossier and he didn't do well trying to explain why his advancement of Russian disinformation is different from what he accuses others of doing.

" 'You've been really prolific over the past few years being the head of the Intel Committee," Ortagus noted, "and you defended, promoted, you even read into the Congressional Record the Steele Dossier — and we know last week the main source of the dossier was indicted by the FBI for lying about most of the key claims in that dossier."

"Due to the recent revelations that confirmed what most already thought about the origins and credibility of the dossier, Ortagus asked Schiff: " 'Do you have any reflections on your role in promoting this to the American people?"

"As Glenn Greenwald pointed out, Ortagus' question was the toughest Schiff has received for his role in perpetuating literal fake news.:

Notable that Adam Schiff -- who appears on every CNN, MSNBC and Sunday morning network news program as often as possible -- just had his first truly adversarial questioning about his pathological Russiagate lies not on any of those networks but from Morgan Ortagus on the View.

Biden Puts Another Pipeline On The Chopping Block

. . . “ 'The Army Corps of Engineers is preparing an environmental impact to look through this,” Jean-Pierre said in a press briefing, after denying reports that President Joe Biden is preparing to revoke the Canadian pipeline’s permit — as happened to the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office.

Where John Durham’s Investigation Is Heading

 Andrew C. McCarthy

"Reading the tea leaves, it appears the special counsel’s end game is something other than a sweeping indictment."

"Last week's indictment of Igor Danchenko has the commentaria buzzing. If special counsel John Durham has cracked the core of the Russiagate case, if he has established that the Steele dossier on which the FBI substantially based its spy warrants was fraudulent, does that mean he is nearing a sweeping conspiracy indictment? Will there be criminal charges that target the real 2016 collusion — not between the Trump campaign and Russia, but between the Clinton campaign and U.S. officials who abused government investigative powers for political purposes?

"Almost certainly not.

"All signs are that Durham will end his investigation with a narrative report. It has looked that way for a long time. There are reasons why then-attorney general Bill Barr appointed then-Connecticut U.S. attorney Durham as a special counsel shortly before the Trump administration ended.

"Unlike ordinary federal prosecutors, who either file charges or close investigations without comment, special counsels are required by regulation to write a report for the attorney general. As we saw with special counsel Robert Mueller’s report in 2019, there is typically great outside pressure on the AG to make such reports public (though doing so is not required). Barr obviously knew enough about Durham’s investigation to grasp that there was unlikely to be a grand, overarching criminal-conspiracy case; there had, however, been rampant malfeasance and abuse of power that might never come to light absent a comprehensive investigative report". . . 

Granholm’s ‘Shock’ Aside, US Energy Dominance Is Exactly Where Biden Wants It — Weakened

Daily Caller

"When U.S. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm was asked a direct question about skyrocketing gas prices, her response was as telling as it was disappointing. Instead of offering middle-class Americans an explanation or an apology or a sliver of hope, she let out a hearty laugh.

“ 'Oh my…that is hilarious! As you know, oil is a global market. It is controlled by a cartel, that cartel is called OPEC, and they made a decision yesterday that they were not going to increase [production] beyond what they were already planning.”

"How did America fall so far, so fast on the topic of energy? How, in less than a calendar year, did we go from energy independence to begging foreign cartels like OPEC for more supply? We went from net-exporting our oil to hoping that someone will help fill gaps in our energy supply.

"If Secretary Granholm and President Biden want to find those responsible for putting us at the mercy of a cartel, they need to look in the mirror.

"Of course, it didn’t have to be this way.  The greatest country in the world shouldn’t have to rely on the “generosity” of countries who – for the most part – hate everything we stand for." . . .
