President Biden has figured out how to fix the supply chain problems that are pushing prices higher and frustrating consumers. His solution? Threaten the private sector. That’s what he did recently as he spoke of measures that are being taken to ease the shortages of workers and materials that are clogging ports and railyards, delaying shipments and adding to inflation. (Snip) What on earth is he talking about? Since, as usual, Biden took no questions from reporters after his remarks, we will never know. Maybe Biden is simply ignorant of how businesses operate since he has no real-world private sector

Media is getting tired of covering his sorry butt.

His default position is to blame others and to bully them. He IS a bully.

Pretty much no one, and I mean no one from Biden and throughout his team, knows how business or government works. They all became liberals, then power hungry, and are making decisions that affect the world they are totally ignorant about. Who unloaded those containers before? Why won't they unload them now? Those are the questions Biden should be trying to answer.

Biden is locked in as an old line corrupt DC liberal Democrat, who is now aligned with the younger leftist and socialist Democrats and there is no way will he admit that he is wrong by changing the incompetent political agenda that he and his handlers have been following. The country is stuck with Biden at least until the off year elections in November 2022.

#2, BiteMe has to be told every morning when he wakes up what his name is...and he either wants ice cream or a sandwich. They give him a pudding and tell him it's vanilla gelato from Capriotti's. He's okay with that.

I guess the Biden Administration will have to use military style conscripts to unload and transport all that cargo. Might have to do it at gun point. Welcome to the Party comrade.

Your pain is not caused by unions, or dock labor, truck driver shortages. Your pain is caused by the Eco-Terrorist state of Kalifornia. Kalifornia mandated that only magical clean green trucks can move your toys thru the pristine wonderland that is The Peoples Republic of Kalifornia. The millions of normal trucks you see on the roads every day, not killing you, are not allowed in Kalifornia. The magical clean green trucks Kalifornia wants on it's perfect roads do not exist. Haven't been built. Maybe someday. Not now. The few thousand trucks that do exist are working night and day, but aren't enough. Maybe like, Law and Order, sometimes people can want more Environmental Purity than they can afford.

Those that have NEVER worked a day in their lives, or more than a few, are NEVER in-touch. They have never actually been in the real World. Biden says and does what he is told, period, as best he can in his condition. He is surrounded by people who have never been in touch. Many who were in touch before heading to DC are no longer in-touch. They are usually corrupted by $$$, power, and celebrity status. Some went to DC with plans to change the USA for the worst - there you go, AOC - who fits more than one model.

Queen Elizabeth II, the world's longest-reigning living monarch, is a picture of good health even at 95 years of age. One of the reasons the monarch has aged so gracefully is that she follows the advice of her nutritionists and doctors, but she wasn't very happy when she was recently asked to drop her daily cocktail. (Snip) As per various reports, the queen enjoys a gin cocktail in the morning, followed by a glass of wine or champagne with lunch, and another glass of champagne plus a dry martini in the evening.

Although the Biden administration recently announced that the Port of Los Angeles will transition to 24/7 operations to help alleviate supply chain bottlenecks, the port's executive director, Gene Seroka, said a timeline for when that schedule change will actually take effect remains unclear. "It’s not a single lever we can pull today to open up all the gates, but what we’re doing is trying to squeeze every minute, every hour of efficiency out of this port complex that we can, sharing information, building on those strong decades-long relationships, and with the strength of the federal government behind this," Seroka said

Seattle Public Schools (SPS) announced Friday it would suspend over 100 school bus routes starting next week due to a shortage of drivers. Starting Monday, Oct. 18, the district will cut 142 of its approximately 600 bus routes due to a "significant decrease in available bus drivers," according to an update sent to parents Friday. The district does not own or operate the buses, and instead contracts a third-party vendor, First Student, which is currently dealing with the impacts of a nationwide driver shortage. "It’s our hope that the staffing shortages faced by First Student will be resolved as quickly

Wednesday at 2:58 pm, President Biden took to the podium in the East Room and began remarks on supply chain bottlenecks that are causing shortages of consumer goods and threatening to make Christmas gifts late. What Biden did not address is whatever bottleneck it was that caused him to be 38 minutes late for his 2:20 pm event. Nor did he apologize for keeping everyone waiting.(Snip) In June, Biden inexplicably arrived over two hours late (two hours and 38 minutes, to be exact) for a June 14 press conference in Switzerland on the coronavirus pandemic and NATO relations.

Los Angeles - Dozens of behemoth cargo ships adorned with tall stacks of brightly colored containers still dot the coastline off southern California. Part of a shipping bottleneck plaguing US ports, the ships – their diesel-fueled engines always ablaze – are also pumping out pollutants as they idle, anchored off-shore. The clogged supply chain has been described as an economic calamity as the delayed cargo caused shortages in common goods and drove consumer prices higher. But environmentalists and public health advocates are concerned it’s also turning into a climate catastrophe. The container ships awaiting entry are compounding the levels

President Biden on Thursday said the number of unvaccinated Americans still remains "unacceptably high," but insisted that his administration's vaccine requirements for the federal workforce and private employers are "working" to ensure more individuals receive shots to protect against COVID-19. During remarks from the White House Thursday, the president touted his administration's "progress" in the "fight against the virus." "We're making progress nationally. Daily cases are down 47%, hospitalizations are down 38% over the past six weeks," Biden said. "Over the past two weeks, most of the country has improved as well.

As new vehicle sales continue to decline, sale prices keep going up. A new study from Kelly Blue Book found that the average price paid for a vehicle in September it an all-time record of $45,031 as discounts dwindle and buyers in the market gravitate toward high-end models. "The record-high prices in September are mostly a result of the mix of vehicles sold," Cox Automotive analyst Kayla Reynolds said. "Midsize SUV sales jumped in September compared to August and full-size pickup share moved up as well. Sales of lower-priced compact and midsize cars, which had been commanding more share during

Donald Trump had an incredible legacy as president, but sometimes he can be his own worst enemy. More broadly, as the leader of the Republican Party, he’s ensuring that his self-inflicted wounds damage not only his own (presumed) electoral chances but those of other Republicans as well. Clearly, Trump has yet to get over the fact that he is not the one currently sitting in the White House following the 2020 election.

Noel Hacegaba, deputy executive director of the Port of Long Beach, said expanding the ports’ operating hours will not impact the supply chain disruptions given the continued shortage of truck drivers, chassis equipment, and warehouse operations and space. “We think it’ll be summer of 2022 before we clear all 60 ships,” Hacegaba told The Epoch Times Oct. 14. “Of course, if we take some measures now, and everyone in the supply chain starts expanding
