Joe Biden’s Infrastructure Plan
Focuses on ‘Racial Equity’
Posted By: Imright, 4/1/2021 11:09:06 AM
President Joe Biden’s $2.3 trillion infrastructure plan, the so-called “American Jobs Plan,” spends a great deal of space promising to address “racial equity.”As Breitbart News has explained, the term “equity” is not the same as “equality.” Equity is prepared to sacrifice equality before the law to benefit individuals claiming membership in groups deemed to suffer from historic disadvantages.Under President Donald Trump, black unemployment and poverty rates reached record lows, and the gap between black and white unemployment was the smallest ever, thanks to economic growth, Opportunity Zones, and immigration enforcement.

at Hunter Biden's addictions 0 replies
Former President Donald Trump provided some parenting advice in his latest interview, highlighting the importance of keeping children away from alcohol and drugs — just as President Joe Biden’s son Hunter is in the headlines discussing his battles with addiction.Trump frequently raised Hunter’s well-documented troubles during the last election campaign, and his comments will be taken as a thinly veiled swipe at the new first family.In Thursday’s interview with Gina Loudon, the co-chairwoman of Women for Trump 2020, he was served a series of softball questions, including how he had managed to raise such fine children.“I think you have to give them a lot of attention,” he said
The U.S. Capitol was locked down on Friday after numerous reports of gunshots ringing out in the area surfaced and the alleged shooting of multiple officers aired.
According to U.S. Capitol Police, all Capitol buildings have been locked down “due to an external security threat.” Staff members were informed that they were not to go into or exit the buildings.
Those already inside the Capitol are being allowed to move throughout the buildings but they have been instructed to stay away from exterior windows and doors. Those that are outside have been told to take cover immediately. (Video) An anonymous source told the AP that police responded to a possible shooting near

“Have a More Normal July 4th” (Video) 10 replies
Joe Biden on Friday once again told Americans to cower in fear and wear masks in order to be able to have barbecues and enjoy the 4th of July.“If the American people continue to do their part — mask up, practice social distancing, we can have a more normal July 4th.”WATCH: (Tweet/Video) This isn’t the first time Joe Biden has told Americans how we can spend the 4th of July.Last month Biden told Americans if we “do our part” we can have barbecues and spend time with family and friends on July 4th.
Hunter Biden has revealed his father staged an intervention to get him to give up drugs last year, during the Presidential election, in his first sit-down interview for months where he also admits the damaging laptop with details of his business dealings in Ukraine 'could' be his, but says he was 'hacked by Russians'. Hunter did two interviews with CBS to promote his new memoir, Beautiful Things. The first will air on Sunday morning, and the second will air on Monday morning. The network teased a trailer for both on Friday morning. It is the first time it is publicly known that the Biden family staged
Donald Trump Jr. and his girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle have just shelled out $9.7 million on a Florida mansion. And it looks like they snagged a bargain. The home was initially listed back in 2017 for a whopping $19.9 million, property records show. But after three years on-and-off the market, and a $10 million price cut, the home finally sold to Trump Jr., 43, and his gal pal, 52, who recently revealed that she already feels like she’s married to him. The sale took place two-and-a-half months after the pair made their exit from the Big Apple following the results of the 2020 election.
The Internet Accountability Project (IAP) released a report showing big tech employees and corporate PACs contributed more than 12 times the money to Democrats than Republicans in 2020. The IAP, whose mission it is to “rein in big tech before it’s too late,” discovered employees of Facebook and Twitter, compounded with their PAC donations, have contributed over $5.5 million to Democrats while contributing less than $435,000 to Republicans, a ratio of 12 to one. A portion of the money donated to Democrats as a whole includes $72,838 to Democrats on the House Oversight Committee.
Former President Donald Trump on Thursday night decried big tech “censorship” after an interview he gave to his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, was taken off Facebook.“I did a very nice interview with Lara,” the former commander-in-chief said in a separate interview on cable news channel Real America’s Voice. “Facebook took it off and it’s disgraceful,” he told host Dr. Gina Loudon.The interview was for Lara Trump’s podcast and published Tuesday. When she posted the footage to Facebook and sister-company Instagram, it was removed.
There are a lot of ironies when it comes to increased Democrat calls for more gun control — which always happens when they are in power — and corresponding record increases in gun sales, but this one might just be the granddaddy of them all.As reported by “Washington Secrets” columnist Paul Bedard, gun sales hit another record in February as Joe Biden and congressional Democrats once again ramped up calls for new gun control measures, politically exploiting, as they always do, a series of tragic mass shootings.Bedard writes:For the second time in three months, the FBI broke its record for gun sales, concealed carry, .
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki dodged a question on Thursday about smugglers throwing small children over the southern border wall, and instead shifted attention to the reporter’s motivation for asking the question.“And then, on immigration, has the White House considered beefing up border security now that there is video of a three-year-old and a five-year-old being thrown over the wall in New Mexico?” Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked.Psaki said that the administration has “spoken out about our concerns” regarding what the smugglers are doing.“Yes, but they still got close enough — as you guys are talking about addressing root causes
Georgia’s election reform legislation is pretty good. But the future of the republic is at stake, and “pretty good” isn’t good enough.
Unfortunately, while the omnibus bill contains a number of laudable provisions, such as stricter ID requirements and absentee ballot safeguards, it also includes glaring flaws that could render the final product largely meaningless.Most significantly, the language used to “ban” private funding of election administration has a loophole large enough to drive a semi-truck full of ballots through. Although the legislation bars election officials from directly accepting private funding, the wording expressly allows funding to flow through “the governing authority of the county or municipality,”
Thirteen states are joining forces to sue President Joe Biden’s administration over his power grabbing American Rescue Plan which banned states from cutting taxes if they received COVID-19 relief funds.The Daily Caller reports: “The 13-state coalition argued that the provision included in the Democrats’ $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package preventing states from cutting taxes if they accept relief from the federal government is unconstitutional. The coalition, led by Republican West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, filed the federal lawsuit Wednesday evening in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama.”In a statement released on Wednesday, Morrisey said, “Never before has the federal government attempted
The Biden Administration silently gave Palestine millions in financial aid, reversing Trump-era policies, according to the Associated Press (AP).The administration announced on March 25 they would give $15 million to Palestinian communities in the West Bank and Gaza for pandemic purposes, according to ABC News.The administration then alerted Congress on Friday that it would give Palestinians $75 million for economic support to be used to restore their “trust and goodwill” after Trump cut aid, according to the AP.“Given the absence of USAID activity in recent years, engaging civil society actors will be critical to regaining trust and goodwill with Palestinian society,” the notification sent to Congress said,

How Stupid are American Voters ?--- Very!

Perhaps stupid is not the right word. Gullible is not right either. It's really hard to pinpoint the main reason behind the disastrous state of our country but the cold hard fact is that many Americans have fallen for two of the biggest hoaxes perpetrated by the left , the media and corrupt politicians.
It's too simple to blame the voters of any particular party when the main culprits are the individuals who just can't be bothered with politics. They don't want to get involved so they don't vote yet they complain when their taxes go up or their civil rights are taken away

Former House Speaker John Boehner claims the GOP thought ex-President Barack Obama was a 'secret Kenyan Muslim traitor,' he called Sen. Ted Cruz a 'reckless a**hole' and said Republican 'morons' flooded Congress in 2010.
In Boehner's new book, 'On the House: A Washington Memoir,' the chain-smoking, red wine-sipping former top Republican doesn't hold back when judging members of his own party. Boehner ascended to the speakership in 2011 after the Tea Party movement helped the GOP capture the House majority two years into Obama's tenure.(Snip) Boehner complained about the tone of the new Tea Party-tied members.
Georgia lawmakers passed an amendment that would strip Delta Airlines of a tax break on jet fuel after the company publicly excoriated the state’s newly enacted election integrity law.
Republicans in the Georgia House of Representatives narrowly passed an amendment that would revoke the tax break, costing the Atlanta-based Delta tens of millions of dollars per year, according to Forbes.

During a press briefing, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki revealed that Joe Biden is “absolutely” committed to nominating a Black woman to the Supreme Court.During his campaign, Biden promised to put a Black woman on the nation’s highest court in order to appeal to the critical race theorists of the Democrat Party. The campaign promise was put in the spotlight as a reporter asked Psaki if the Biden team was considering giving favorable chances to political nominees of certain skin color.Biden’s campaign pandering came back to the spotlight after he released his first federal judicial picks, a group of 11 attorneys
Little Petey Buttigieg is now playing in the big leagues, having made the tremendous leap from ineffectual mayor of a crime-ridden city to Transportation Secretary of the United States of America. To make a point about alternative transportation, he rode a bicycle to his first White House cabinet meeting – after first having several burly men drive him near the White House and then escort him and his bike. This kind of theater is typical for leftists, who often seem incapable of distinguishing fantasy from reality.
Last week, Little Petey (who always reminds me of a cross between Alfred “What, Me Worry?” Newman and Beaver Cleaver)
President Joe Biden's Secretary of Education is looking into whether the president can cancel up to $50,000 in student loan debt for millions of borrowers. White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain said at a Politico Playbook event Thursday that Biden has asked Education Secretary Miguel Cardona to figure out if the president has the legal authority to wipe out their balances. On the campaign trail he said he wanted to wipe away $10,000 per borrower, but prominent Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have pressed him to pursue $50,000 in debt relief per student.

Cities in parts of the U.S. that slashed their police department funding last year, in part as a result of police-involved shootings, have seen an uptick in certain crimes over the past year, according to data analyzed by Fox News. Cities such as Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York City, Portland, Ore., and Austin, Texas, have shifted funds from police departments to social services programs. Such cuts have led some departments to lay off officers, cancel recruiting classes or retreat from hiring goals.
A North Carolina man has been nabbed in a cold-blooded road-rage shooting that left a mom-of-six dead, authorities said Thursday. Dejywan Floyd, 29, of Lumberton, was arrested early Thursday on first-degree murder charges in the death of 47-year-old Julie Eberly, the Robeson County Sherriff’s Office said. The arrest comes a week after Eberly was shot through the passenger door of her car as she and her husband, Ryan, were on their way to celebrate their anniversary in Hilton Head. The couple was driving on Interstate 95 in Lumberton when her husband accidentally cut off another motorist.
President Joe Biden said he would “strongly support” moving the Major League Baseball All-Star Game out of Atlanta because of Georgia’s new voting law that critics say may suppress turnout at the ballot box.
Biden spoke to ESPN’s Sage Steele in an 11-minute interview Wednesday night, saying he would back the MLB if the league decided to move the July 13 game out of Georgia in response to the GOP-backed election reform signed last month by Republican Gov. Brian Kemp.(Snip) Biden characterized the new law–which adds a photo ID requirement for voting absentee by mail and bans
NEW YORK - A federal appeals court on Thursday rejected New York City's effort to hold five major oil companies liable to help pay the costs of addressing harm caused by global warming.
Ruling in favor of BP Plc, Chevron Corp, ConocoPhillips, Exxon Mobil Corp and Royal Dutch Shell Plc, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions should be addressed under federal law and international treaties.
It rejected the city's efforts to sue under state nuisance law for damages caused by the companies' "admittedly legal" production and sale of fossil fuels,
The Biden administration is granting thousands of illegal border crossers one-year renewable permits to stay in the United States to apply for asylum, a process that can take years.
What’s more, according to a new report, they are allowed to receive Social Security cards, paving the way to government benefits and jobs.
Immigration expert Todd Bensman, who has been embedded in the process for the Center for Immigration Studies, said in a new report that an estimated 34,000 recent border crossers have already been distributed around the country with the documents.
