countries’

Several G7 nations have agreed to a plan reportedly drafted by President Joe Biden’s administration to spend a combined $40 trillion to “help poorer countries build infrastructure.”The ostensible goal of the Build Back Better World (B3W) plan is to “challenge China’s huge Belt and Road Initiative,” Reuters noted.BRI is a competing global infrastructure project launched in 2013 by Chinese President Xi Jinping.“China’s belt and road plan was launched by Xi in 2013 and involves development and investment initiatives stretching from Asia to Europe and beyond,” the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post notes.

U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson on Sunday strongly refuted a media-generated narrative that the Jan. 6 Capitol riot was an “armed insurrection” during an appearance on Fox News.In an interview with “Life, Liberty, and Levin” host Mark Levin, Johnson discussed his efforts to extract information from Justice Department and Capitol Police sources about the demonstration, adding that his staff has recently reviewed some 14 hours of video taken that day and have made some startling discoveries.But the notion that there were throngs of armed participants intent on overthrowing the government — the purpose of insurrection — is completely false, Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican, asserted, and the video evidence
A cashier was gunned down inside a Georgia supermarket Monday simply for asking a man to put on a mask — and a retired deputy who intervened was also shot, authorities said.The afternoon horror happened at a Big Bear Supermarket in DeKalb, when the worker asked Victor Tucker Jr., 30, to mask up due to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation,(Photos) Tucker refused and got into an argument with the woman before leaving the store without making a purchase, the report and GBI said.
The suspect then barged back inside and allegedly shot her in the head, authorities said.
Fox 26 Houston TV reporter Ivory Hecker announced LIVE ON AIR tonight that she has been secretly recording the FOX 26 Channel and that Project Veritas will release the video tomorrow.Ivory Hecker started off her news story on Monday with that little tidbit for company brass.“I want to let you the viewers know that Fox Corp has been muzzling me to keep certain information from you, the viewer. And from what I’m gathering I’m not the only reporter being subjected to this. I am going to be releasing some recordings about what goes on behind the scenes
The Democratic Party, having apparently solved all of America’s problems, are going back to the well at least one more time: It is announcing yet another partisan Trump “witch hunt.”On Monday, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) announced that the House Democrats are going to open a formal investigation into the Department of Justice’s surveillance of Congress, journalists, and others:“Recent reports suggest that, during the Trump Administration, the Department of Justice used criminal investigations as a pretext to spy on President Trump’s perceived political enemies,” Nadler’s letter read.“It remains possible that these cases—which now include Members of Congress, members of the press,
Former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blasted US President Joe Biden in a 'scorched earth' speech on his last day in office before officially handing over power on Monday, warning Iran will be 'celebrating' his defeat because Israel will be 'weak'. In a scathing speech that was meant to last 15 minutes but ran for more than half an hour, Netanyahu said the Islamic Republic would celebrate his loss because 'they understand that starting today there will be a weak and unstable government that will align with the dictates of the international community.' He then turned on his replacement, and former ally, Naftali Bennett, in the rambling speech, branding the
Facebook vice-president Nick Clegg has admitted the company's fact-checkers – employed to root out alleged 'fake news' from its social-media platforms – could be biased and pursuing their own political agendas, according to a European Commission document obtained by The Mail on Sunday.The former Deputy Prime Minister made the admission to EU officials in November during talks about how the tech giant was tackling misinformation flooding its site.Facebook announced fact-checking measures in 2016 amid claims that its failure to remove misleading content helped to swing that year's US Presidential election in favour of Donald Trump.

Whether it was appearing confused at times or needing help from others including First Lady Jill Biden and other world leaders, there’s just no hiding the fact that President Biden’s trip overseas for the G7 and now the NATO summit has been a major catastrophe for this administration. It’s gotten so bad that even his handlers are getting in on the act in order to try and contain the damage.As if shooing a Sky News reporter away from one G7 event over the weekend as cameras were rolling wasn’t embarrassing enough, there was another incident just today as the NATO summit got underway.Biden was sitting at a table
The Arkansas woman Hunter impregnated and refused to pay child support was a basketball mentor to both his and Barack Obama's daughters, he claimed in his emails.Hunter, 51, had an affair with Lunden Roberts, 29, and fathered a daughter, Navy Joan in 2018. He settled with Lunden out of court last year after she sued him for refusing to acknowledge the baby was his or pay child support. A court-ordered paternity test proved he was the father of her baby. Little was previously known about how Hunter met Roberts – though some reports claimed she was a stripper at a Washington DC club Hunter frequented.

Unlike the New York Times staffer who told MSNBC it was “disturbing” to see dozens of American flags flying last weekend, I loved seeing so many storefronts and houses decked out in flags and red, white, and blue bunting over Memorial Day. All year, I’ve noticed more flags than usual and wondered how many were silent acts of defiant patriotism in the face of so much homegrown anti-American animosity.On this Flag Day, the 244th anniversary of the Continental Congress’s adoption of the Stars and Stripes, it’s worth taking a moment to reflect on both the well-cherished and little-known history of Old Glory.
Joe Biden was today accused of breaching royal protocol by revealing the Queen asked him about Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping during their talks at Windsor Castle - and for not removing his sunglasses.The US President, who visited the monarch with his wife Jill Biden yesterday following the G7 summit in Cornwall last week, said she 'wanted to know' about the Russian and Chinese presidents and they had a 'long talk'.Mr Biden told reporters before leaving London Heathrow Airport yesterday: 'We had a great talk. She wanted to know what the two leaders that I… the one I'm about to meet with, Mr Putin,
President Joe Biden gave Turkish President Recep Erdogan an awkward fist bump on Monday ahead of their private sit down amid tense relations between the two nations.
Erdogan made it clear he will let Biden know how the president's recent statement on the Armenian genocide 'disturbed and upset us' during their one-on-one meeting.'An ally country taking such a stance on an issue that has nothing to do with NATO, the issue of Armenians, has disturbed and upset us. It is not possible to go on without reminding (Biden of) this,' Erdogan said

House Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says she is ‘inclined to say yes’ when asked if Justice Stephen Breyer should retire so that President Joe Biden can appoint a younger liberal judge to the Supreme Court. 'You know, it's something I think about, but I would probably lean towards yes,' Ocasio-Cortez told CNN on Sunday when asked if she thought the 82-year-old Breyer should step down at the conclusion of this Supreme Court term. 'I would give more thought to it, but I'm inclined to say yes.' The 'Squad' member said that Breyer's retirement should be discussed if the divided Senate declines

Named after journalist Michael Kinsley who introduced the concept, a “Kinsley gaffe” occurs when a speaker “accidentally reveals something truthful about what is going on in his or her head.” Last week, the New York Times Editorial Board Member Mara Gay made the season’s most notable Kinsley gaffe in her account on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” of a harrowing trip to New York City’s eastern suburbs on Long Island.
[SNIP] After Gay had finished recounting how she found “just disturbing” the sight of “dozens of American flags,” co-host Mika Brzezinski chimed in, “Totally agree.”
Joe Biden repeatedly confused Syria with Libya while discussing ways of working with Russia during a press conference at the G7 on Sunday.
The 78-year-old gaffe machine spoke of working with Vladimir Putin to provide economic assistance to the people of Libya, prompting some confused glances from the press pack at the G7 summit in Cornwall, England.
'I'm hopeful that we can find an accommodation where we can save the lives of people in—for example, in—in Libya,' the president said, mentioning the north African country for the third time instead of Syria, which is in the Middle East. The White House later brushed the confusion off,
Breitbart News noted 32 people were shot Friday into Sunday morning alone in the Windy City, and those shooting victims included the three fatalities for the weekend. ABC 7 / Chicago Sun-Times reports the total number of shooting victims increased to 43 by Monday morning. USA Today observed shooting victims included nine that were wounded wounded when “two men who opened fire in a South Side neighborhood at around 2 a.m. local time Saturday.” One the weekend’s fatalities also occurred in that shooting. Fifty-five people were shot, five of them fatally, last weekend in Mayor Lightfoot’s Chicago. The National Fraternal Order of Police notes that
The Girl Scouts have an unusual problem this year: 15 million boxes of unsold cookies.
The 109-year-old organization says the coronavirus — not thinner demand for Thin Mints — is the main culprit. As the pandemic wore into the spring selling season, many troops nixed their traditional cookie booths for safety reasons.
"This is unfortunate, but given this is a girl-driven program and the majority of cookies are sold in-person, it was to be expected," said Kelly Parisi, a spokeswoman for Girl Scouts of the USA.

President Biden on Monday claimed the Republican party is “vastly diminished in numbers” after the January 6 Capitol riot and expressed disappointment in GOP senators who “know better” than to vote against an investigation into the riot but are “worried about being primaried.” Biden’s remarks came in response to a question about whether NATO allies are shaken by the Capitol riot and the actions of former President Trump.
During a press conference after the NATO summit in Brussels, Belgium, Biden said that while other leaders may have seen things

One person was killed and another injured Sunday night after being struck by a car in the Uptown area of Minneapolis during a protest, near the site where Winston Smith was shot by sheriff’s deputies earlier this month.
A witness said the eastbound SUV was moving at a high rate of speed as it approached just before midnight, and that the driver appeared to accelerate as they got closer to demonstrators who had blocked off Lake Street near Girard Avenue.
The driver struck a vehicle parked across one of the traffic lanes on Lake Street, apparently positioned to protect the crowd. That second vehicle then hit people.

It’s beyond any reasonable dispute that the slack-jawed old pervert staggering through this punchline presidency is getting more senile by the day. All the while, his cackling understudy is biding her time everywhere but at the border, getting huffy at being questioned, and generally failing at a job historically assigned to morons as a role where they could do little damage. The only people who dig their hep jive – yeah, go on and believe the 79% approval numbers among people now paying $5 a gallon for unleaded – are the talking tubers of cable news. But even the tater thots of Brian Stelter, who is a potato
Kamala Harris' problem isn't race or gender though those are the two excuses that she and her supporters have brought out to explain everything from her humiliating failure in the primaries to her humiliating failure on the world stage during her big international trip.
But aside from her self-inflicted problems, and there are many of those, Kamala has no constituency.
Joe Biden has black voters, but he picked Kamala as a sop to the party's minority base even though she wasn't able to woo black voters away from him during the primary. Strategically that's exactly why he picked her.
Tent-lined streets with belongings scattered everywhere. Infected wounds with bugs living inside. A man who hasn't showered in over a decade. An 80-year-old woman who can't feed herself. People who ride the metro rail lines because the trains are a safer place to sleep. California's homeless problem has been out of control for decades. Then came COVID-19. The result has been a deadly combination of medical crisis, human hopelessness and bureaucratic red tape as the state, reeling from the virus' impacts, tries to rebound with a plan for the 160,000 homeless people. That number eclipses any other state – and accounts
