In 2020, China Privately Told Biden Ally They Wanted Joe To Win
"The Chinese Communist Party was pulling for Joe Biden to win the 2020 presidential election, according to former president Barack Obama's ambassador to China.
"Max Baucus, who is on the payroll of several CCP-connected firms, said in an interview with Politico published Friday that CCP officials were optimistic about Biden softening relations between the United States and China.
" 'I had some very good Chinese friends—high up in the government—and I talked to them before the [2020] election, and they said they hoped Biden would win the election and not [Donald] Trump," Baucus said. "Why? Because they said, 'We could deal with Biden.' They thought because he's steeped in foreign policy and he was chairman of that Foreign Relations Committee, he's reasonable, whereas … you never know where Trump is going to go."
"Few former senior government officials have closer ties to the CCP than Baucus, who runs a consulting firm for Chinese companies and serves on the board of Alibaba, a Chinese tech company. Baucus was a vocal critic of Trump's policies toward China, even appearing on Chinese state television to bash the administration's policies. While vice president, Biden advocated for Baucus's appointment as ambassador to China, likely prompting Baucus to endorse Biden's 2020 presidential bid.
"Baucus told Politico that although Chinese government officials favored Biden during the 2020 campaign, they've now "changed their mind." Following Biden's win, Baucus said, the CCP concluded that "Biden's rhetoric isn't as anti-China as Trump's, but his policies are more anti-China than Trump's.". . .
Biden’s Ballooning Foreign-Policy Blunders; Our feckless Commander-in-Chief continues to embolden our enemies.
The American Spectator . . ."This statement to the media contains some disturbing elements. First, Biden suggests that he was initially briefed on the balloon on Wednesday. The problem with this claim is that it entered U.S. air space in January, as reported in the Bloomberg article quoted above: “US authorities were well aware of the unidentified object that had entered American airspace on Jan. 28.” This means either that Biden is guilty of another of his trademark whoppers or, even worse, that his military advisers hid it from him for several days. The latter explanation seems eminently plausible considering that “they decided” when to shoot it down.
"Regardless of who made the call, the decision to allow the balloon to traverse the entire continent before destroying it was allegedly based on the desire to avoid collateral damage if debris happened to fall on a populated area. That claim, however, is simply not credible. During its first four days over the U.S., there were vast stretches of virtually uninhabited territory over which it could have been shot down with no serious possibility of collateral damage. It could also have been shot down over water even before it entered U.S. air space in Alaska. As former Vice Chief of Staff of the United States Army Gen. Jack Keane told Fox News:
Remember, this was approaching the United States over water. It was approaching the Aleutian Islands over water. And we had plenty of opportunity to take it down then. And that’s when it should have happened. We had to be tracking it from mainland China across the Pacific Ocean, and we had plenty of warning to put together an operation that we are conducting now on the East Coast that should have been done there.
"Keane goes on to point out that we have alert aircraft in Alaska whose principal mission is to prevent unauthorized penetration of U.S. air space by foreign aircraft. If we had competent leadership in the White House, the spy balloon would never have made it to Alaska. But that’s the problem, of course. As Robert Gates, former defense secretary in the Obama administration, famously observed, “[Biden] has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.” Our commander-in-chief has certainly lived up to this reputation during his first two years in the White House.". . .
Viral SOTU moment: Jill Biden kisses Kamala Harris’ husband
"On Tuesday night at the national Capitol, President Biden delivered his second State of the Union address, the first after he lost the majority in the US House of Representatives.
"Soon after, the moment of the two sharing a kiss went viral on Twitter, with several social media users passing remarks.
" 'Jill Biden just kissed Kamala Harris’ husband on the lips. Didn’t see that one coming,” a person wrote on Twitter. “Did Jill Biden just kiss Kamala’s husband on the LIPS?!,” another said.
" 'Sexy start to the State of the Union tonight with Dr Jill Biden and Kamala’s husband with a heck of a hello kiss,” wrote another.". . .

State of the Union Highlights Reel
.jpg)
"Despite MSNBC treating Biden's State of the Union address like the royal wedding, you probably didn't watch it. But it doesn't matter because ... I've got the highlights reel!. . .
. . ."LEAST BELIEVABLE CLAIM (This was a very competitive category!): Pointing out Tyre Nichols' parents in the audience, Biden said he'd never "had to have 'the talk' that brown and black parents have had to have with their children." And why would you, with a son like Hunter?
"You've probably heard me say this before, but I don't think "the talk" is taking. My evidence is this: Every famous case of a black person being killed after an interaction with police has NOT involved hyper-politeness on the part of the arrestee. E.g.:
-- Michael Brown (tried to grab officer's gun, refused to stop, then turned and charged at him);
-- Breonna Taylor (boyfriend was shooting at cops);
-- Daunte Wright (refused to be handcuffed, despite a warrant for his arrest, attempted to drive off with an officer dangling from his car window).
"MOST REFRESHING MOMENT: "Let's also pass the bipartisan Equality Act to ensure LGBTQ Americans, especially transgender young people, can live with safety and dignity."
"Finally, an American president courageous enough to support poisoning and mutilating confused adolescent girls.". . .
That claim about three Chinese spy balloons on Trump's watch is deflating fast
. . ."You know the press is going to be dining out on this for the next ten news cycles.There's just one problem, though -- the claim that Trump saw three Chinese balloons traverse through the U.S. on his watch and did nothing is ... deflating fast.
First, we have an explicit denial from someone who would have known.
According to the Daily Mail:". . .
. . ."So the whole story about Trump supposedly knowing about and ignoring the presence of three comparable spy balloons from China is falling apart fast. What's being described never happened, and what did happen was not like what happened this past week. It's just spin, another bid to give Joe Biden a public relations 'save' in the wake of the public relations disaster this balloon incident is amounting to, exposing both Joe's and America's weakness.
"This incident rather resembles the Liz Cheney-promoted lie that President Trump knew about Russian bounties on the killing of American soldiers in Afghanistan and did nothing. Or the one about Trump supposedly insulting the American war dead in Europe while he was on a trip there. Those stories, too, were debunked severely when the facts came out, and intriguingly, both also came from the Pentagon's lie shop.
"Now we are hearing this crap, which is falling apart like a busted balloon overhead overhead and waiting for the press to dine out on the scraps.
"Spare us this clown show. Trump never let balloons float overhead from China the way Joe Biden has. The claim is nothing but desperate leftist bunkum."

The mess of an address; UPDATED 2/10
He skipped over how he demolished U.S. deterrence abroad after the greatest humiliation in modern military history, with the flight from Kabul and the abandonment of billions of dollars in military equipment.
Victor Davis Hanson After listening to the State of the Union address, Americans know why the latest Reuters poll has President Joe Biden at 41 percent approval.
Vice President Kamala Harris polls even lower — despite the obsequious efforts of the most biased media in history that has, in effect, merged with the Democratic Party.
The nation was reminded again why only 37% of Biden's own party want him to run again.
Only a quarter of Americans believe the country is headed in the right direction under his leadership.
Given all that, what could a president possibly tell a nation when he entered office inheriting a 1.4% inflation rate only to spike it to 7%? How did Americans' 30-year mortgages of 2.7% soar to 6.5% in less than two years?
How does a president explain that eggs climbed to $7 a dozen, or a thin steak hit $15 a pound, or a sheet of plywood reached $95?
How does a president explain to Americans that gas averaged $2.39 a gallon when he took office and, even after draining the strategic petroleum reserve, it is still $3.50 a gallon — and recently spiked at $5 a gallon in many states.
Can Biden explain why once affordable, or even cheap natural gas more than tripled in price in less than a year?
What can a president say when in his first two years over 5 million foreign nationals poured into the United States — all illegally across a nonexistent border?
How could Biden explain the humiliation in Afghanistan? The draining of our arsenal of key weaponry? Or the inability to take down a communist Chinese spy balloon when it first brazenly floated above America — photographing military bases and missile sites as it crossed the entire United States with impunity?
We know the answers to all these questions.
Biden simply did on Tuesday in his State of the Union address what he always does: misinform, ignore, and attack!
Misinform. After sending inflation, energy, and interest rates to astronomical rates, and then seeing them momentarily taper off a bit, Biden declares that he "lowered" these indices that remain far higher than they were when he entered office.
He brags of a low unemployment rate. But Biden never discloses the better indicator of the labor participation rate that has declined under his tenure — or the fact he inherited a growing economy naturally rebounding on autopilot from a disastrous 2-year COVID lockdown.". . .

Idaho college murders: The complete timeline of events as of Dec. 5th
Idaho college murders: The complete timeline of events - ABC News (go.com)
Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen, inseparable best friends since the sixth grade, "died together in the same room, in the same bed," Steve Goncalves said at the vigil.
"More than six weeks after four University of Idaho students were mysteriously stabbed to death in a house near the Moscow, Idaho, campus, a suspect was identified and taken into custody.
"The four slain students were Ethan Chapin, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20, and Kaylee Goncalves, 21.
"Court documents -- including an 18-page affidavit -- released on Jan. 5 revealed how police zeroed in on their suspect: Bryan Kohberger, a 28-year-old criminology Ph.D. student at Washington State University, located less than 10 miles away from the University of Idaho.
"Here's how the case is unfolding:. . .
. . ."The roommate said "she looked out of her bedroom but did not see anything when she heard the comment about someone being in the house," the documents said. "She opened her door a second time when she heard what she thought was crying coming from Kernodle's room."
"The roommate "then said she heard a male voice say something to the effect of 'it's ok, I'm going to help you,'" according to the documents.
"The roommate said she opened her door again when she heard the crying, and she saw a man in black clothes and a mask walking past her. She stood "frozen" and in "shock," according to the court documents.". . .
Texas GOP Congressman Rips Biden Over Border Snub: ‘Insulting’
"Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales blistered President Joe Biden after the president excluded the congressman from a tour of facilities and spots on the U.S. southern border.
"Gonzales’ district, TX-23, covers a large swath of southwest Texas and includes more than half of the state’s total border with Mexico. The district stretches from El Paso County to La Salle County over 500 miles away.
"Biden’s team rejected Gonzales’ request to join the president’s entourage on Sunday as Biden met with local and Border Patrol officials in El Paso over the immigration crisis.
“ 'I find it insulting that President Biden blames space constraints for ignoring my request to accompany him on a visit to El Paso County, which I represent in Congress,” Gonzales told Fox News. “For two years, this administration has pointed fingers at Republicans for not wanting to act in a bipartisan manner on border policy.”
“ 'In contrast, by not inviting Republicans on this trip, specifically the Republican member who represents El Paso, it shows they are not willing to work across the aisle to fix the crisis at our southern border,” he said.
"A White House spokesperson said that Gonzales’ request was denied because of “space constraints” on the president’s company.". . .
Biden cleaning up "Trump's mess"? C'mon Man! Gaslighting made manifest
"Biden’s visit came after consistent backlash from Republicans and even moderate Democrats that Biden, as he continued to open the border further and encourage more illegal aliens to come into the country, refused to see the consequences of his actions in-person. Biden has repeatedly dismissed concerns about the border, claiming that there are “more important things” to do. However, the constant imagery of hordes of illegals flooding into the country, subsequently leaving behind damage and causing a rise in homelessness and crime wherever they go, has led to immigration being one of the major issues on which Biden is universally criticized by most voters."
"It might have taken him half a term, but President Joe Biden finally visited the country’s southern border. On Sunday, the president visited the U.S.-Mexico border at El Paso days shy of his second anniversary in office. He has either repealed or severely limited nearly every border policy put in place by his Republican predecessor.
"The trip was complete with all the hallmarks of a politician desperate to show face while aiming to avoid accountability. With his brief appearance, Biden meant to present himself as an assertive commander-in-chief who takes the border seriously, but in reality, it was a pretend performance all along.". . .
It was good for the border czar to go along with Biden. No? Wait! What?...
Greg Abbott: “Biden does not want America to see the chaos that he has caused on the border.”
"The Biden border crisis has spun so far out of control that the White House is finally sending him to the border.
"In preparing for his arrival, El Paso and the Border Patrol have been clearing out evidence of the crisis Biden’s open borders policies have wreaked, however, so Biden won’t get to see the suffering, destitution, and homelessness he has willfully created. More importantly, of course, the resulting photo-op visit will not shed light on the humanitarian crisis for Americans.". . .
