Joy Reid Says BLM Protesters
Would Be 'Shackled, Arrested
or Dead' in Viral Speech on Race
Posted By: NorthernDog, 1/7/2021 3:45:09 PM
A Joy Reid speech has gone viral after the MSNBC anchor eviscerated law enforcement's double standards in policing rioters at the Capitol yesterday versus the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020. "I guarantee you if that was a Black Lives Matter protest in D.C., there would already be people shackled, arrested or dead," said Reid. "Shackled, arrested en masse or dead." The political commentator was speaking on Wednesday's installment of The Reid Out where she made the point that "white Americans aren't afraid of the cops." A clip of the segment has gone viral on Twitter with more than 3

and extremists signal divided

The hundreds of far-left and anarchist demonstrators who gathered in protest mere hours after President Biden swore the oath of office Wednesday signal a fracturing on the left that could become a scourge for the new administration, experts say, with some activists continuing to use destructive measures to voice rejection of centrist ideologies they believe will do little to address existential worries over climate change, economic inequality, foreign wars and racism. Destruction of the Oregon Democratic Party headquarters by extreme-left demonstrators on Inauguration Day has split Portland liberals, and federal agents’ launching of tear gas at crowds that descended on
Officials across Southern California are opening more sites to administer coronavirus vaccine. But there are concerns that the shortage in vaccine doses could worsen before it gets better. Authorities have said the biggest problem right now is getting enough vaccine to meet demand. At current rates, it could be June before Californians 65 and over are fully vaccinated. And full vaccination in places like L.A. County might not be possible until 2022. Dr. Paul Simon, chief science officer for the county Department of Public Health, said Friday that if weekly vaccine shipments were to increase to 500,000 doses, the county
A group of three dozen House Democrats signed a letter Friday asking President Joe Biden to commute the death sentences of all federal death row inmates and work to dismantle the form of punishment at the federal level. The plea comes on the heels of 13 executions carried out by the Trump administration since July, a legacy the Democrats described as "one of carnage and unrestrained violence." They called on Biden, who has voiced his opposition to the death penalty, to emphasize rehabilitation for offenders in his Justice Department, not execution. "The fact of the matter is that these death

loss, high energy costs amid Biden oil regulations 19 replies
President Joe Biden has put his team to work reviewing dozens of actions taken by former President Donald Trump, aiming to reverse orders that he says harm the environment or endanger public health. For the energy sector and Louisiana jobs, the impact could be far-reaching. Oil and gas operations are being scrutinized — from how companies extract resources from the ground to the safety of pipelines that distribute the fuels. The new president aims to transition the country to 100% renewable energy for electricity generation by 2035 and net-zero emissions in the overall economy by 2050. Many experts agree that
Continuing a flurry of executive action, President Biden signed an order Friday calling on the Labor Department to allow workers to collect unemployment benefits if they quit jobs they fear put them at risk for COVID-19. Pointing to a Gallup Poll finding that found 43% of Americans live in a household where at least one member has a preexisting condition, the White House wrote in a release: “The President is asking the Department of Labor to consider clarifying that workers have a federally guaranteed right to refuse employment that will jeopardize their health and if they do so, they will
The National Guard is planning to ask up to 7,000 troops deployed to Capitol Hill to volunteer to stay until March 12, according to Military.com. An official reportedly said the plan was still being finalized, and that Guardsmembers would not be required to remain deployed over its 31-day activation. "We are not going to make anybody stay," spokesperson Nahaku McFadden told Military.com.
Of the roughly 25,000 troops initially deployed to the Capitol for security on Inauguration Day, 15,000 of them are expected to return to their respective states this week. Guardsmembers from all of the US states and territories like

what’s delaying Covid vaccine shots, CDC says 29 replies
The Biden administration is trying to figure out exactly what’s holding up the national Covid-19 vaccine rollout, searching for any hiccups in the manufacturing process, suppliers and distribution networks, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the new director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said Thursday. President Joe Biden has vowed to have 100 million shots of vaccine administered in his first 100 days in office, a task that would require the U.S. to modestly accelerate the current rate of vaccination. Some large states, though, are telling the federal government they have capacity to vaccinate even more people but aren’t getting

WILMINGTON, Del. – While Joe Biden gave his inauguration speech on Wednesday afternoon, a lone person in a blue uniform kneeled at the grave of Biden’s son Beau at St. Joseph on the Brandywine church in Greenville, Delaware. The person kept their head bowed before and after the speech and clasped their hands. The person said nothing. No one else was in the cemetery on the cold, windy afternoon except for a few workers doing outside maintenance. The identity of the person was not known. A News Journal reporter did not approach out of respect. The person remained at the
WASHINGTON—President Biden signed 10 executive orders on his first full day in office to combat the coronavirus, seeking Thursday to jump-start the U.S. response to the pandemic while warning it will take “many months to get where we need to be.” The new strategy is focused partly on ramping up vaccinations and curbing the spread of the virus through mask wearing, testing data and treatments, and includes the executive orders and directives signed Thursday. One order directs agencies to use their authority, including the Defense Production Act, to meet shortfalls in supplies such as masks, while another establishes a pandemic

LONDON — When reporters toured the recently redecorated Oval Office on Wednesday at the White House, they took note of the symbolic changes in scenery that have come to stand in for an incoming U.S. president’s view of the nation. President Biden’s choices included a portrait of wartime President Franklin D. Roosevelt and a bust of civil rights hero Rosa Parks. But as Biden began his first full day in office the next morning, many British outlets pounced on a notable absence: a bust of Winston Churchill, FDR’s World War II counterpart, on loan from the British government.

CALGARY, Alberta - U.S. President Joe Biden on Wednesday formally revoked the permit needed to build the Keystone XL oil pipeline (KXL), dashing Ottawa’s hopes of salvaging the $8 billion project that the struggling Canadian crude sector has long supported. The move represents another set-back for the beleaguered Canadian oil industry, in particular its energy heartland Alberta, kills thousands of jobs, and marks an early bump in Biden’s relationship with Canada, a key trading partner. Keystone XL, owned by TC Energy Corp, is already under construction in Canada, and would carry 830,000 barrels per day of Alberta oil sands crude

Golf star Justin Thomas said Wednesday he will enter a training program amid the fallout from muttering a homophobic slur during a tournament earlier this month. Thomas, who lost Ralph Lauren as a sponsor, said he hoped to "become a better person." "It’s not a word I use," Thomas insisted. "And like I said, it’s going to be part of this process and training program, whatever I need to do, not only to prove to myself but to prove to my sponsors and prove to the people who don’t know who I am that that is indeed not the person

‘Insulting and disappointing’: Unions show signs

of voter remorse after Biden reality sinks in 57 replies
Several unions that eagerly endorsed President Joe Biden during the 2020 presidential election are now learning the hard way what it means to support Democrat policies.
During his first day in office, the newly-inaugurated president revoked the construction permit for the Keystone XL oil pipeline, thus destroying thousands of jobs.
And not just any jobs — but union jobs.
TC Energy Corp., the Canadian company that shares ownership of the pipeline with the Alberta government, had estimated that 10,000 jobs — in addition to the 1,000 already established — would be created in 2021 alone thanks to the construction of the pipeline.
The White House announced Friday that the Biden Administration will codify Roe v. Wade, which would allow for legal abortions even in the event that the Supreme Court overturns the 1973 ruling. The Biden Administration made the announcement in a press statement put out by the White House. “The Biden-Harris Administration is committed to codifying Roe v. Wade and appointing judges that respect foundational precedents like Roe,” reads the statement. Corrections*
Now that the date has been set for the unprecedented second impeachment of former President Donald J. Trump, the only question remaining is whether enough Republicans join Democrats in convicting him on bogus charges.There will need to be 17 Republicans willing to pull the trigger in order to prevent Trump from ever running for president again. And while it has been reported that there are few outside of the klatch of die-hard Never Trumpers who would convict, one key GOP senator wants him gone.Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is reportedly siding with the lynch mob
One Republican Congressman says instead of sending stimulus checks to every qualifying American, direct payments should go to people who receive the coronavirus vaccine. “I hope the administration will look at that option because we actually buy something with our $1,400—and that’s herd immunity,” said Rep. Steve Stivers (R., Ohio) in an interview with Yahoo Finance Live. President Joe Biden has called for individual $1,400 payments in his $1.9 trillion relief plan—which some Republicans argue is too much and some progressives say is too little. Stivers opposes additional stimulus checks as the proposal currently stands. The Biden administration has said it prefers
Love him or hate him—Mitch McConnell is a politician who seldom makes mistakes. He’s not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but he’s a man who is a skilled political strategist whose errors are few in years past. Tea Party folks were sour on him, but the man was instrumental in enacting key portions of the Trump agenda, especially concerning the judiciary. Cocaine Mitch was a slayer in the upper chamber, but all that changed after the 2020 election.
On January 6, there was a riot on Capitol Hill. Five people died. The Capitol Building was stormed. New impeachment articles were filed against President Trump as well.

Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser told “Just the News” on Friday that the Democratic-led Senate and House will vote in favor of statehood for the District of Columbia and send the bill to President Joe Biden’s desk, who has expressed support for D.C. statehood in the past.
Bowser said, “The nation’s capital, the federal enclave, continues to exist as the nation’s capital and everything outside of those new boundaries becomes the 51st state. Our congresswoman – we had our first successful vote on statehood in the House of Representatives last year. She reintroduced the bill. She has a record number of sponsors.”
Tim Matheson, The West Wing actor, whose TV career dates back to 1960s episodes of Leave It to Beaver, says he was telling a “stupid joke” on Friday when he responded to a Twitter video of Jill Biden visiting National Guard troops. Matheson commented on the video of Biden and said it’s “so wonderful to have a First Lady with class and heart. And, can speak English!” (Tweets) “I apologize for a stupid joke, which was tasteless and without humor,” Matheson said after deleting the tweet
The last time these slinking mongrels in Congress impeached President Trump, a deadly disease from China was stalking our country, poised to pounce and kill close to 400,000 Americans. In those crucial early months of the global pandemic, our federal government ground to a halt as Democrats in Congress pursued with blind fury a hotly partisan and clearly futile effort to remove Mr. Trump. Democrats failed. Mr. Trump survived. Everyone knew the outcome of the fake charade from the start. But as Democrats dawdled, bloviated and fawned for the cameras, the pandemic prevailed.
When President Joe Biden announced former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg as his pick for Transportation Secretary, many scratched their heads. Why would he tap someone who oversaw a small budget, in a small town, in the Midwest for such a roll? That puzzle is finally coming together. It turns out that Biden favors Buttigieg's transportation views, specifically the idea that America should move away from the gas tax and instead opt into a tax based on the number of miles a person travels.
I sure wish I had not learned so much over the last five years. In retrospect, five short years ago seems almost like Mayberry. Here are some important things that I didn’t know five years ago or now.
There actually is a deep state and they really do not honor the election results nor the will of the people.
There really appear to be lawless elements within the upper echelons of the FBI, CIA, and NSA who are not accountable for their crimes and are thus above the law.
The fourth branch of government, the bureaucracy, really is unaccountable to the "unwashed masses."
Florida’s efforts in rolling out and distributing COVID-19 vaccines have apparently been so successful it is attracting thousands of out-of-state tourists, forcing state officials to restrict the limited doses to permanent residents only.
A two-page advisory issued by state Surgeon General Dr. Scott Rivkees restricts vaccines to be given only to those who can prove they reside in Florida. The advisory came after Florida officials fielded complaints that people from as far away as Canada and Argentina, among other countries, were flocking to the Sunshine State for a vaccine.
In addition, American citizens from other states were also traveling to Florida
“This recall effort, which really ought to be called ‘the California coup,’ is being led by right-wing conspiracy theorists, white nationalists, anti-vaxxers and groups who encourage violence on our democratic institutions.”
That was California Democratic Party chair Rusty Hicks, in a January 12 press conference, joined by Fresno city councilman Nelson Esparza who called the recall “treasonous.”
