Joe Biden sure looks like he’s lying about Hunter’s biz

 Joe Biden sure looks like he's lying about Hunter's biz (nypost.com)



"You can now officially file President Joe Biden’s claim that he’s “never spoken” to his son Hunter about his business activities with his claims that inflation is “transitory” and the border is “under control.”

The Post reported that Joe allegedly agreed to pay more than $800,000 in legal bills Hunter racked up, including bills related to his overseas businesses. This comes on the heels of revelations that Hunter alleged his father was taking half his salary.

"It would be literally impossible to set up these arrangements without talking business. So the prez has been outright lying. Just as Hunter’s business partner Tony Bobulinski said months ago.

"Want more evidence? Consider The Post’s revelation of the direct sit-down Joe had as veep with another Hunter partner, Eric Schwerin, then serving as president of investment fund Rosemont Seneca Partners.

"We still don’t know what they discussed. Or what was said on the (at least) 19 occasions Schwerin visited the White House and other official locations from 2009 to 2015.  Asked about these shady details, chief Biden flack Jen Psaki responded: “I don’t have any information on that.” The future MSNBC star doesn’t want to know.

"Even the Secret Service is playing dumb. It recently and unbelievably told The Post it has no relevant records on who’s visited the prez at his Delaware homes, as if knowing weren’t central to its job". . .

Greta Thunberg doesn’t want you to talk about her anymore –

  POLITICO

. . ."The seeds for Thunberg’s conversion to social justice advocacy arguably go back to the very beginning of her activism, which was sparked, famously, by a feeling that she and the rest of her generation were being betrayed: Given the cause and consequences of climate change, why weren’t responsible adults — parents, teachers, politicians — doing more? Why was no one panicking?

"In her early teens, Thunberg became sick. She ceased eating and talking. Activism, both Thunberg and her parents have said, was her salvation. It was also a process of finding and banding together people who shared her anxiety and her view that, ultimately, climate change is a moral question: right and wrong — or as she has said, black and white. 

"And so it was only natural that she was open to the idea that others were being betrayed as well.

"One early turning point in her thinking seems to have taken place during a highly publicized trip to the United States in 2019. Thunberg had been invited by U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres to speak at a summit in New York, and rather than take a plane, she and her father had crossed the Atlantic in a borrowed racing yacht.

"Jamie Henn — a self-described “aging youth activist” who helped organize her schedule — remembers being struck by how much Thunberg’s approach contrasted with the hyper racially aware politics of the U.S. youth environmental movement.". . .

Compare and Contrast: Trump White House Correspondents Dinner vs. Biden White House Correspondents Dinner

"The media cheered and applauded Joe Biden Saturday night at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. The dinner is an annual event where media hacks join together to bash Republicans and give each other awards for their fake news reporting.

"The reporters were thrilled to honor Joe Biden as the country goes to hell outside of their bubble.

"In his speech Biden attacked President Trump and Republicans and misquoted Ronald Reagan. It was typical Biden.

"But the media hacks loved him. This was a far cry from how they treated President Trump and his press secretary.

"Never in American history have the Democrats been so ugly and openly abusive of a woman as they were that night with Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

"Here’s a comparison video of how they treated Biden versus how the demons treated Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

"They’re not just liars and fake news peddlers, they’re horrible people."

A Government Disinformation Board? You Don’t say!

I shudder over the fact there is no universal outrage over the creation of this board. But then I recall the words of Abraham Lincoln, "If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide." TD

Clarice Feldman . . ."No, everything is hunky dory in the world of Biden and Pelosi, so there’s now an opportunity to deal with less critical matters, like restricting free speech.

The Disinformation Governance Board, announced this week, is a mysterious creation with no known purpose or need and will be headed by a highly eccentric gal who has a weird history of denouncing as disinformation things that are true while insisting on things which are demonstrably false.". . .

"All right. So, she’s a bit kooky, but can she tell truth from disinformation? I don’t think her record is any better on that.

"She claimed there are many non-binary people who give birth. Actually, I think that is “gender disinformation,” not mockery of women officeholders. And calling mothers-to-be ”pregnant people” as she does, is not only false but does more to erase womanhood than criticizing Kamala Harris who deserves, as does every elected officeholder, to be judged on the merits -- or lack of them in, Kamala’s case. 

"Worse yet, Jankowicz’s record on discriminating between truth and falsehood is a failed one. She suggested the Hunter laptop had an “illicit provenance”: ". . .  


Why Does the Left Have Such a Difficult Time With the Concept – PJ Media
For if Men are to be precluded from offering their Sentiments on a matter, which may involve the most serious and alarming consequences, that can invite the consideration of Mankind, reason is of no use to us; the freedom of Speech may be taken away, and, dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep, to the Slaughter.....George Washington
. . ."Let the racists rant. Let the nuts spout their conspiracy theories. The danger is in trying to decide what might be racist or hateful. Once you set up a process, a system, a board, or a person to try and define what is “hate,” what is “disinformation,” what is “unacceptable,” free speech is gone.". . .


Video: Antifa Seen Escorting Illegal Aliens To Union Station After They Were Dropped Off In DC From Texas - They Attacked Reporters Who Tried To Film Them -

 USA SUPREME  


. . ."Abbott told “Hannity” earlier this week that he was forced to come up with “new ideas to do the federal government’s job” as border checkpoints struggle to manage the flow of people attempting to enter the United States and amid the Biden administration’s move to eliminate the Title 42 expulsion provision.

"However, Abbot’s plan is not working at all as Antifa activists help the illegal immigrants to either return to Texas or relocate them to another place.

"Migrants refused to answer any questions, and cameras were quickly blocked by activists using body parts, jackets, and even umbrellas.

"The illegals were quickly herded across the street into Union Station as black bloc thugs obstructed traffic and yelled obscenities at frustrated drivers and observers."

America's best and brightest rule over us

 

IN MY ORBIT: 'Minister of Truth' Nina Jankowicz Is as Dangerous, as She Is Ridiculous; You've Been Warned – RedState   "In a just world, Department of Homeland Security (DHS)’s Disinformation Board Executive Director Nina Jankowicz would actually be pursuing her musical and Broadway ambitions. In entertainment, crazy and unhinged is often a necessary part of the brand.". . .

Unearthed Comments Undermine 'Ministry of Truth' Director Nina Jackowicz's Appointment – RedState  . . ."But while dunking on her past posting is fun, there’s a more serious video that’s been unearthed. In it, Jackowicz makes the case that the executive branch should not have the power to determine what is true and what’s not. That’s obviously relevant, given she’s now being placed in a position to do just that.". . .

"These people wouldn’t have any standards if they didn’t have double standards. Everything related to the Biden administration is contradictory and incoherent. Less than three years ago, Jackowicz was saying that the executive branch shouldn’t get involved in policing disinformation because the orange man was bad. Now, she says the opposite as she gets ready to start collecting a government paycheck for a job she once panned. What a coincidence, right?

"So, what changed? The resident of the White House changed. . . ."

Andrea Widburg: In Florida, a new law says Disney is no longer special

 


In Florida, a new law says Disney is no longer special - American Thinker

For decades, when it comes to leftism creeping into every American institution, conservatives have played the game two ways: either they've played defense or they've withdrawn from the fray entirely.  In this case, though, by withdrawing a unique legislative protection that the state granted Disney in 1967, Florida turned the tables and waged war on the woke. A couple of days ago, Jesse Kelly made an interesting point on Twitter — for decades, Republicans have made losing their comfort zone:

. . ."Second, the Florida Legislature passed, and DeSantis signed, a bill stripping Disney of its special status as a self-governing district.  Florida granted that privilege (not a right — a privilege) to Disney in 1967 based on Disney's plan to build an entire community in what was then pastureland and swamp.  Because the counties in which the land was located lacked the resources to support that kind of development, Florida established the Reedy Creek Improvement District, allowing Disney to act like a county government on that land.  This special status has been very profitable for Disney.

The Disney company must currently be shell-shocked to find that it had to pay a price, in the form of losing that profitable privilege, "just because" it went to war against the Florida state government.  After all, woke companies have been declaring war against so many things lately, all without suffering any significant consequences.  They've gotten used to the fact that, as Jesse Kelly said, Republicans are comfortable losing.  Republicans will usually huff and puff, but take no action on and bear no responsibility for anything.

In DeSantis, though, there's a new sheriff in town, and he's here to clean up the scourge of wokeness that is destroying America from within, one child at a time.  Disney just happens to be the first company affected by this clean-up.

And please, ignore those leftists who are squealing that Disney is being punished for speech.  The Legislature always has the right to remove special privileges that it once granted.  Disney has the right to stay on exactly the same path as before, including wading into politics.  However, a company that built its brand on entertaining the child in all of us might want to rethink its strategy of rebuilding its brand on grooming children. 

Bill Maher rips Twitter for flagging Babylon Bee amid Elon Musk takeover: 'You do need a new sheriff'

Maher says Twitter has 'failed' for banning the Hunter Biden laptop story, Wuhan lab-leak theory

" 'Real Time" host Bill Maher railed against Twitter on Friday for "failing" on what should and shouldn't be allowed on its platform as Elon Musk takes over the social media giant. 

" 'Has Twitter failed in setting itself up in the past as the judge of what can go out there? And I would say yes, you have," Maher said during a panel discussion Friday night. "You failed when you threw the New York Post off of Twitter for talking about Hunter Biden's emails. And it turned out that was a real story. You failed when you said we couldn't read about whether COVID had come from a lab. You failed!"

"Maher pointed to how Twitter slapped the "sensitive content" label on a video produced by the conservative satire The Babylon Bee, which mocked sensitive Twitter staffers freaking out about the Tesla CEO becoming their new boss. 

"'Sensitive content,' Twitter said. In the video, they were making fun of Twitter for being too sensitive. This is so ‘Through the Looking Glass’!" Maher exclaimed. "This is well within what satire has always been. And the fact that they flagged this for being insensitive shows their complete lack of self-awareness about what their own problem is. If that's where the line is, you have failed Twitter. You do need a new sheriff.". . .

Russia's Colossal Tank Losses in Ukraine Are Due to This Fatal Design Flaw


 Newsweek  "Images showing the abandoned, destroyed and damaged Russian tanks in the streets of devastated towns and countryside roads in Ukraine have proliferated since the beginning of the Russian invasion on February 24.

"Over two months later, reports from western intelligence and independent observers estimate that Russia has lost hundreds of tanks in Ukraine—numbers that, even rounded down, suggest that Russia would struggle to quickly replenish its original inventory.

"While some of the responsibility certainly lies with the many anti-tank weapons provided to Ukraine by the U.S. and Britain, including Javelins and Switchblade drones, it has now emerged that the reason for the Russian tanks' failure might be a technical issue in the vehicles.

"CNN reported Thursday that Western militaries have known for years about a design flaw grimly called the "jack-in-the-box effect" in the Russian tanks, which makes the vehicles highly susceptible to catch fire and explode.". . .

Is the US really heading for a second civil war?

  US politics | The Guardian (A leftist, Democrat-supporting British press source)


. . ."It is a question that many inside America and beyond are now asking. In a deeply divided society, where even a national tragedy such as 6 January only pushed people further apart, there is fear that that day was the just the beginning of a wave of unrest, conflict and domestic terrorism.

"A slew of recent opinion polls shows a significant minority of Americans at ease with the idea of violence against the government. Even talk of a second American civil war has gone from fringe fantasy to media mainstream.

" 'Is a Civil War ahead?” was the blunt headline of a New Yorker magazine article this week. “Are We Really Facing a Second Civil War?” posed the headline of a column in Friday’s New York Times. Three retired US generals wrote a recent Washington Post column warning that another coup attempt “could lead to civil war”.

"The mere fact that such notions are entering the public domain shows the once unthinkable has become thinkable, even though some would argue it remains firmly improbable.

"The anxiety is fed by rancour in Washington, where Biden’s desire for bipartisanship has crashed into radicalized Republican opposition. The president’s remarks on Thursday – “I will allow no one to place a dagger at the throat of our democracy” – appeared to acknowledge that there can be no business as usual when one of America’s major parties has embraced authoritarianism." . . .
