Biden to Surrender U.S. Sovereignty Giving WHO Authority over Pandemic Policies

 American Pigeon.   "One side effect of the move toward globalization has been the development of a network of judicial bodies with wide-ranging authority to alter domestic policy and domestic law,” writes Mary L. Volcansek and John F. Stack in Courts Crossing Borders: Blurring the Lines of Sovereignty. “What began as a mere side effect is now…a major force in shaping legal practice in many regions of the world and in driving resolution of human rights, economic, and even criminal issues.”

"As a college student reading that book some years ago, I saw it as a warning that as globalization and transnationalism intertwined individuals and societies to the rules of intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations, like the World Economic Forum, then the greater their sovereignty at the peril of our own.

"The fear of that reality has reawakened after news broke that the Biden administration is negotiating with the World Health Organization (WHO) to cede control of domestic health policy in the event of another pandemic. Domestic policy, in the United States and other signatory countries, would then be determined by the Geneva-based United Nations subsidiary.

"Discussions between U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra and WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus began in September 2022, announcing “the U.S.-WHO Strategic Dialogue,” according to The Epoch Times. In a joint statement, they say that the dialogue “provides a platform to maximize the longstanding U.S. government-WHO partnership, and to protect and promote the health of all people around the globe, including the American people.”

"Birthed from these talks was the “zero draft,” where an “Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB)” was established to negotiate a pandemic treaty, wherein the WHO will have the authority over nations’ vaccine mandates, lockdowns, treatments, and making sure such policies are “equitable.”

"Under “Article 4. Guiding principles and rights,” the draft states that members will have “the sovereign right to determine and manage their approach to public health…provided that activities within their jurisdiction or control do not cause damage to their peoples and other countries.' ” . . .

WHO is running the club - American Thinker    "The UN lost any claim to being an international forum for democracy when the U.S. agreed to admit Stalin’s Soviet Union. The tossing of Taiwan for communist China was the death knell. Today, it uses the financial and political power of its committees to denounce democratic Israel.". . .

Biden's integrity

 

'Freudian Slip': Nancy Mace Torches Biden's Reaction to Bribery Allegations (townhall.com)

Biden Melts Down During Presser When Asked About Bribery Allegation, Gives Unbelievable Answer – RedState   "As we reported earlier, Joe Biden held a bilateral meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak of the United Kingdom on Thursday. He needed note cards to just do his greetings with Sunak, and he got confused about what the prime minister’s position was. That raised fresh concerns about his mental ability to do the job.
"Then the White House decided to throw caution to the wind and had him answer a few questions. Of course, he had a pre-approved list as he usually does, so he may also have the questions and answers in front of him as well.

But even that didn’t stop Joe from being Joe (that is, putting his foot in his mouth).

"Biden completely blanked out on part of what the question was that a reporter just asked him.". . .

"Biden himself has lied in the past, saying his son Hunter never got any money from China—when in fact he did, as the House Oversight Committee’s bank records proved."

 Parody: Trump Names Hunter Biden As His Running Mate So DOJ Will Stop Investigating Him | Babylon Bee    . . ."Unable to continue their quest against Trump, DOJ officials admitted defeat. "It's over," said a source within the department. "We're not allowed to go anywhere near Hunter Biden, so Trump and his campaign can now run roughshod. Much like the women Hunter hires at night, our hands are tied."

"At publishing time, new vice presidential candidate Hunter Biden, who had last been seen passed out in an alley after a 3-day crack cocaine bender, was unavailable for comment."

John Kennedy Has Very Little Use For Alejandro Mayorkas

What’s obvious is that the Biden administration wants the flood. They’ve had all the opportunity in the world to stem it and have chosen not to. And they’ve trotted Mayorkas out to eat bullets from the American people as the flood continues, which he does with a smugness and dishonesty it’s hard for anyone to tolerate.

 The Hayride   "This was a pretty brutal takedown of the Secretary of Homeland Security, whose department didn’t even exist prior to 9/11 and does very little to effectively provide real security for the American people. Instead, it inconveniences people at airports, it facilitates rather than deters illegal immigration, including from countries whose regimes mean us harm (and there is very little vetting of illegals who make it here), and it spends its time publishing memoranda about the phantom threat of “white supremacist” domestic terrorism.

"Mayorkas has become an avatar for this idiocy and failure mostly because when he shows up for hearings in the House and Senate he speaks in a comic pattern of filibuster and clear lies. But what’s true about Mayorkas is true of the entire Biden administration; it’s full of liars and incompetents who have only excuses for failures predetermined by their policies. It’s just that Mayorkas’ tragic failure at our southern border, something he simply will not own up to, is more high-profile than, say, Pete Buttigieg’s breaking of the supply chain or Jennifer Granholm’s destruction of the power grid or Lloyd Austin’s disintegrating woke military. DHS generates ugly video and awful headlines daily, unlike the others, and that’s what makes him such a prominent whipping boy for Republicans in these hearings.". . .

The left has us all doomed!

 Let's talk climate scares and wildfires - American Thinker  . . ."Finally, the authors ignore the major reasons for an increase in wildfires: arson, more arson, and the tinderbox created by poor forestry practices, and restriction of logging and harvesting of forests that decreases density.  Dense forests cause wildfires to be more frequent and of greater magnitude.

This paper is a part of a pattern — a poorly formulated claim of factoids is blown up into a basis for a scare.  But a reasonable analysis of the science shows the claims to be inadequately formulated.  Fossil fuel use and increased CO2 in the air are not the cause of any valid prediction of increased wildfire frequency or severity.". . .



Fearing 'climate change,' Ireland moves to kill the cows - American Thinker   "Ireland has announced plans to cull hundreds of thousands of cows to comply with European Union climate policy.  Similar initiatives in Belgium and the Netherlands ensure that beef prices will rise, but these proposals offer little environmental benefit.  Indeed, cows are the heroes, not the villains, in rescuing the climate.

"Ireland's push to eliminate 200,000 cows demonstrates the persistent folly of climate alarmism, while contrasting the shortcomings of renewable energy products.  The fundamental premise of the targeting of benevolent bovines is faulty: that cow burps cause damage to the environment.  Interestingly, the alternatives propounded — for humans to obtain protein instead from insects, or soy-based synthetic meat substitutes — will profit industries who are key partners in the globalist effort to eradicate cows." . . .

Regime idiots pounce on conveniently-timed 'wildfire' air pollution in New York - American Thinker   "Like clockwork, whenever there is a big storm, a flood, warming or cooling, a drought, or any other weather event, the green pushers come out and say the climatic activity is caused by humans and our use of natural resources.

"The solution is always the same, more money and power for the government, which they can then redistribute to their allies — and we always are in a race against time. Companies that produce reasonably priced energy must be destroyed, and the freedom of choice must be abolished, from the types of cars people choose to drive to the appliances to use in their home. 

"What we never see are facts that show scientific data linking coal, natural gas, or crude oil consumption directly to temperatures, storm activity, or sea levels…because there are none." . . .


CIA and FBI Celebrate Pride Month but Saw Catholics, J6 as Domestic Terrorists –

  PJ Media


Under Biden, the justice and law enforcement systems are becoming blatantly politically and even religiously partisan. For instance, while the FBI put plants in traditional Catholic churches to spy out supposed domestic terrorists and targeted Trump and Jan. 6 protestors, both the FBI and CIA have proudly and loudly advertised their support of LGBTQ madness." . . .

. . ."Despite a number of transgender shooters, multiple disruptive and violent transurrections” in various state capitols, and body-mutilating transgender surgeries that are being performed on countless minors who cannot fully understand that choice at their age, it doesn’t seem to occur to Biden’s FBI and CIA that LGBTQ ideologues could be radical or dangerous.

"But the FBI has put an immense amount of effort into helping track down and convict Jan. 6 protestors, most of whom were not violent. And it infiltrated traditional Catholic churches, despite the lack of evidence that such places are breeding grounds for violent radicalization. Not to mention the FBI’s outrageous raid on Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home last year — Trump, Biden’s prime political opponent." . . .

Michelle Obama’s Exploitation of the Black Community -

Declared Republicans in the presidential race, especially Donald Trump, need to start dealing with Michelle Obama now. The best way to start is to pose these questions to her: “Michelle Obama, are you going to apologize to the Black Community in Chicago for what you did to them?” And, “Michelle, how much money did you make from White liberals denying access to health care to Black Chicago residents”?
Joel Gilbert; American Thinker   "As Obama operatives begin preparing for Michelle Obama to replace the faltering Joe Biden, they know have a problem on their hands: Michelle’s shameful history of exploiting the Black community. As I reveal in my film and accompanying book, Michelle Obama 2024: Her Real Life Story and Plan for Power, Michelle’s two most significant jobs in Chicago involved working on behalf of white liberal elites to deal with the problems that Black people were causing them.

"Chicago liberals couldn’t hire a White person to make 20,000 Blacks homeless. Their answer was to hire Michelle Obama. She became Mayor Richard Daley’s assistant planning commissioner. Her job was to facilitate the destruction of the low-income all-Black Cabrini Green housing project and cede the choice downtown real estate to Democrat party donors developers like Tony Rezko. Nor could the White liberal elites at the University of Chicago Medical Center hire a White person to deny access to health care to Blacks. Only a Black person could fill that job. For a cool $300,000 a year, Michelle was prepared to do all the denying that was needed. Michelle headed up the “South Side Health Collaborative,” a scheme to prevent Blacks who showed up at the University of Chicago Medical Center emergency room from receiving medical care. Michelle made sure they were put into white vans and shipped to crappy neighborhood strip mall clinics on the South Side.

"Only a Black person could credibly do either of these jobs while telling those turned away, “This is for your own good.” Why was Michelle Obama so callous toward the Black community in her professional career? The answer is simple: Michelle was never really a part of the Black community in Chicago. She was not even from the “South Side” of Chicago, as she claimed, but from South Shore, a middle class community on Lake Michigan. . . "

Trump indicted, not Hillary, Hunter or Milley

 Don Surber

The FBI is best at covering up crimes. Consider Hillary sending state secrets while secretary of state via email to foreign governments and others who paid the troll via donations to her fake charity.

"The indictment of President Trump is hooey. Washington no more cares about national security than it cares about Poca Dot football or whether I finally am allowed by my wife to buy that Bentley.

"I don’t know about the leaders in your state, but in West Virginia they stand with the people, the president and the Constitution.

"Attorney General Patrick Morrisey tweeted, “Here we go again with another political prosecution. I think every American (including the other Presidential candidates) should speak out against having two different systems of justice. No double standards!”

"Governor Jim Justice tweeted, “The Biden Administration and the Democrats know they can’t beat President Trump and me unless they weaponize the federal government. Democrats will stop at nothing to defeat us and keep the presidency and their Senate majority. I will always stand with President Donald Trump!”

"Justice was a Democrat who supported Trump in 2016. He has switched parties and is taking on Senator Joe Manchin, D-Manchin, in next year’s Senate race. It would be nice to have both our senators put West Virginia first.

"Americans know the indictment is a set-up because those are the only crimes the FBI can solve anymore. The January 6 protest became an insurrection thanks to FBI informants and maybe even agents who egged people on.". . .

Soros-backed prosecutor continues to go easy on murderers in Oakland

 Soros-backed prosecutor continues to go easy on murderers in Oakland (msn.com)

In Oakland, Price’s policies have led to women becoming regular targets of violent criminals. Price and prosecutors like her continue to put the lives of law-abiding residents at risk in order to protect the violent criminals they should be working to keep behind bars. 

"You do not need to look hard to find proof that the criminal justice reform movement is less about creating a more just legal system and more about fighting “mass incarceration” with pro-criminal policies. You simply need to look at how “reform” prosecutors treat murderers.

"The latest example of this comes from Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price, one of the many liberal prosecutors funded by Democratic megadonor and “reform” advocate George Soros. Price has previously announced that she was trying to seek non-prison punishments for gang members who shot and killed a toddler and dropped special circumstances against a convicted murderer, which removed the possibility of him serving a life sentence without parole.

VIOLENCE AGAINST TEACHERS CANNOT BE TOLERATED

"Her latest entry in pro-criminal “prosecutions” comes in the case of Sergio Morales-Jacquez, who was 17 years old when he shot and killed newlywed Rienhart Asuncion in a road rage incident. Not even two weeks later, Morales-Jacquez and two other teenagers opened fire at a party in Oakland, resulting in the deaths of two teenagers.

"That’s three murders that Morales-Jacquez directly participated in. But, because he was 17 and the criminal justice reform movement demands little to no accountability for juvenile offenders regardless of how heinous or violent their crime, Price refused to try him as an adult. Instead, she secured the now-18-year-old just a seven-year sentence in a juvenile facility, with the possibility of probation.

"Morales-Jacquez is also a person of interest in an ongoing homicide investigation, because of course he is." . . .

California Takes a Big Step Towards Legalizing Shoplifting

 "Remember when suburban and rural folks used to make special trips to the city just to do some shopping? Good times, fading fast."


PJ Media  "If California isn’t already the nation’s shoplifting leader, it soon will be if State Senator Dave Cortese’s SB 553 becomes law, according to some retailers. The bill just passed the state Senate and now moves over to the Assembly.

"Ostensibly aimed at curbing workplace violence — a nice way of saying “criminals who come in to steal stuff and create the conditions for violence” — California Retailers Association chief Rachel Michelin described the bill in harsh terms. “It says no employee can approach someone who is shoplifting. So even if someone is trained on how to deter someone from doing that, now they’re not allowed to approach someone. So, what does that mean?”

“ 'We are opening up the door to allow people to walk into stores, steal and walk out,” she said.

"Cortese, a Democrat, says that “We don’t want rank-and-file employees to be forced to place themselves in harm’s way,” something that Michelin says employers aren’t doing anyway.

"What SB 553 looks like to me is more virtue signaling, enshrined into law, that California now turns a blind eye to shoplifting. That’s certainly the way criminals will read it.

"Meanwhile, over at the San Francisco Standard, they’re all a flutter over when the new downtown Ikea will finally open. There are signs of life at the construction site, “potentially signaling the company’s commitment to opening its Market Street store this year.” The bright blue and yellow store sign is posted and lit, and there are bare shelves in place, waiting to be stocked.

"But maybe the question that San Francisco shoppers should ask isn’t when the new Ikea will open, but how long before corporate is forced to close it.

"Downtown San Francisco has some of the priciest real estate in the world but empty office buildings, rampant shoplifting, and other so-called “lifestyle crimes” have forced big-name retailers to abandon the area. A massive Whole Foods closed in April after just a year of being open, with employees having to call the police an average of 10 times every week. Two city Nordstrom locations will close this summer after the company decided not to renew their leases on Market Street and at the Westfield Mall. Saks Off Fifth is closing, as are H&M and Uniqlo. Walgreens has closed several locations around the city.

"And that’s just in San Francisco, just in the last few months." . . .

Must-see video: A climate change fanatic berates a Tesla driver

 Must-see video: A climate change fanatic berates a Tesla driver - Andrea Widberg  "When it comes to woke fanaticism, the British are right there with us. That’s why an incredibly funny video has been circulating. The driver of an idling car films a very angry woman who is berating him because she cannot understand why he hasn’t turned his car off but is, instead, sitting with it running while it spews pollutants into the air.

"Did I mention that his car is a Tesla?

"The driver apparently realized instantly that he had struck comedy gold because he very peacefully let her play out her idiocy. Once she starts talking about the poison gas emanating from his car, you realize that she is the perfect paradigm of the useful idiots on whom the leftists rely to push their agendas.". . .
