Joe Biden: We Need More Moms in the Workforce
to Compete Globally
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 10/16/2021 2:36:40 PM
President Joe Biden visited a daycare center in Connecticut on Friday, promoting his multitrillion-dollar spending bills that would make the federal government subsidize child and elder care. The president argued that his “Build Back Better” bill was focused on human infrastructure to get the economy running again. “How can we compete in a world if millions of American parents, especially moms, can’t be part of the work force?” Biden asked. “Because they can’t afford the cost of child care or elder care?” Biden said the cost of childcare in America made it difficult for both parents to work.

The Biden administration is planning to request the U.S. Supreme Court block the Texas abortion law.
Last week, a federal appeals court rejected the Biden administration’s efforts to stop the new law.
In response, the Biden administration is planning to take the case all the way to the Supreme Court, which could set a major precedent on abortion rights in the country.
“The Justice Department intends to ask the Supreme Court to vacate the Fifth Circuit’s stay of the preliminary injunction against Texas Senate Bill 8,” Anthony Coley, the Justice Department spokesman, said in a statement, per the New York Times.
In a one-page decision, the Fifth Circuit Court Of Appeals
Ashli Babbitt, the only person killed during the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol Building as a result of direct action taken by others, was an Air Force veteran who served the country proudly for more than a dozen years, but according to her mother, she was denied a military burial earlier this year.
Babbitt, who was shot and killed by Lt. Michael Byrd as it appeared as though she was about to crawl through the broken window of a door leading to the House floor, should have been able to be buried with full military honors, her mother, Micki Witthoeft, told Newsmax TV Saturday, because she loved her country
Fox News host Maria Bartiromo is reporting that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi may be planning to step down.
During a segment on “Sunday Morning Features,” Bartiromo said that sources had told her that Pelosi is stepping down after Democrats pass Joe Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.
“First, this morning is exclusive, sources tell Sunday Morning Futures there is speculation swirling in Washington that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi may step down after getting the massive spending package through,” she said.
“So all those Democrat members who had their arms twisted to vote on the multitrillion-dollar package and put their own reelection in jeopardy may be fuming
The Biden White House has again gone after Donald Trump.
The White House is officially blocking Trump from legally invoking executive privilege to move on from Democrats’ nasty January 6th witch hunt to target him.
“Releasing a letter from White House counsel to the National Archives, the White House has confirmed that President Joe Biden has formally rejected former President Donald Trump from invoking executive privilege on Jan. 6 documents,” Newsmax reported.
“Despite this, former White House strategist Steve Bannon is resolute on sticking to Trump’s privilege and wrote to the Jan. 6 Select Committee on Wednesday night to take it up with Trump’s legal counsel or the courts,” Newsmax added.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio may have inadvertently started a religious revival in the Big Apple after announcing the elimination of the Gifted & Talented (G&T) program for the city’s schools.
The Diocese of Brooklyn, which serves 1.2 million Catholics in Brooklyn and Queens, cited that their Catholic elementary schools’ enrollment grew by 2.4 percent for the current school year, according to a report by the New York Post.
The increased interest in religious education comes after more than a decade of decline in enrollment for parochial schools in New York.
But this year the tables are turned as public schools
Using his mixed martial arts training, a Virginia man fought off three would-be alleged carjackers.
In addition to perhaps picking the wrong potential victim, i.e., someone who has a particular set of skills (to quote Liam Neeson’s memorable line from the movie “Taken“), the alleged suspects’ attempt to flee the scene in the vehicle, moreover, was apparently thwarted because the ability to operate a stick shift has become a lost art.
The incident occurred in the parking lot of Anytime Fitness in Stafford, Va., which is about 40 miles south of Washington, D.C., on Tuesday at about 5 p.m. when the attackers
China launched a new hypersonic nuclear-capable missile that circled the entire globe at low-orbit in August, the Financial Times reported.
US Intelligence and US Military officials were left stunned.
“We have no idea how they did this,” a source told the Financial Times.
According to the report, the missile missed its target by about 24 miles and caught US intel by surprise.
Earlier this year, a satellite image showed China had expanded its nuclear missile silo field.
“Identified via satellite imagery, the new missile base in China’s Xinjiang region may eventually include 110 silos, said the report released Monday by the Federation of American Scientists (FAS).
The Office of the Attorney General in Nebraska issued an opinion Friday in response to the request of the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services that states there’s no “clear and convincing evidence that a physician who first obtains informed consent and then utilizes Ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 violates the UCA (Nebraska’s Uniform Credential Act).”
Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson together with his Solicitor General and Assistant Attorney General issued their opinion in response to a request by Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services CEO, Dannette Smith. She wanted the AG’s office to examine carefully whether doctors could face legal action or be subject to discipline
An New York City woman has been found guilty of robbing a half-dozen homes of victims who were attending their spouses' funerals after finding her targets through obituaries on Legacy.com.
Latonia Stewart, 30, from the Bronx, was found guilty of six counts of robbery in a Westchester court on Thursday and could face more than 20 years in prison.
Stewart she broke into a half-dozen homes between Winter 2017 and Spring 2018.
The 'Funeral Burglar' now faces between 3 and 15 years in prison for each of the six counts after jurors only deliberated for two hours. She will be sentenced on November 22.
President Joe Biden’s chief of staff brushes off record-high inflation and the supply-chain crisis helping fuel it as “high class problems.” It’s a stunning admission of indifference from a well-connected multimillionaire — but just the latest example of this administration’s cluelessness about Americans’ suffering from its failures.
“This,” Ron Klain emphasized Wednesday in quote-tweeting Harvard economist Jason Furman, who wrote, “Most of the economic problems we’re facing (inflation, supply chains, etc.) are high class problems. We wouldn’t have had them if the unemployment rate was still 10 percent. We would instead have had a much worse problem.”

Nearly a year has passed since the 2020 election, yet there has not been a clear, satisfactory answer to the central mystery: How did a dull, declining Joe Biden manage to get more than 81 million votes and win the presidency? After all, Biden spent most of the pandemic-laced campaign in his Delaware basement and his appearances were marked by sparse crowds and signs he had lost more than a step. Yet he flipped five states Hillary Clinton lost in 2016, including Georgia and Arizona, and racked up 306 electoral votes to Donald Trump’s 232.

With Democrat Joe Biden appearing much like an addled absentee landlord, Judge Jeanine Pirro is wondering who is actually in control in the White House, and by logical extension, of the entire U.S. federal government.“What are we supposed to conclude when the most powerful man in the free world says that someone will reprimand him if he doesn’t do what they tell him to do?” she asked. “Is someone else in charge?”Pirro then implied that she thinks she might know who is calling the shots on a de facto basis.

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases head Dr. Anthony Fauci said on this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that Americans who think he is a “polarizing figure” were people who denied “reality.”Anchor Chris Wallace asked, “When this pandemic started, it is fair to say you were generally regarded as the authority on infectious disease. As time has gone on, you have become a polarizing figure, and critics accuse you of sending mixed messages. There’s allegations that you helped fund dangerous research at the Wuhan lab. Two questions, why do you think you’ve become so controversial? And honestly, do you think there’s anything you have done

Former President Bill Clinton has been released from a Southern California hospital on Sunday after he spent five nights receiving treatment for a urological infection.
Clinton and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, left the University of California Irvine Medical Center in Orange, just southeast of Los Angeles, as they held each other's arms. The former president shook hands with hospital staff as he departed the facility alongside his wife of 46 years. Just before his release, the former first lady was seen being escorted to the entrance of the facility early on Sunday morning.
The Art Institute of Chicago fired all of its roughly 100 volunteer museum guides, or docents, in September because too many of them were wealthy, white women. The news of the mass firing has only trickled out slowly, partly because the institute asked docents not to speak to the media, and because the left-leaning Chicago media showed little interest in covering the issue.(Snip)Ironically, the Journal was able to speak to one of the fired docents, who happened to be black, and defied the museum’s request that no one speak directly to the media—perhaps because she had less fear of being accused of racism.

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that the supply chain backups at America’s ports were a product of President Joe Biden guiding the economy “out of the teeth of a terrifying recession,” which caused incomes and demand to rise.Anchor Jake Tapper said, “We are seeing supply chain disruption causing everything from higher prices to longer waits for products.

My mom raised five and didn't enter the workforce until her youngest started high school. Even then, she only worked part time. It was hard sometimes, and we didn't grow up visiting Disney each year or flying to Hawaii for vacation, but we knew we were loved because she was there for us when we needed her. IMHO, more moms (or dads) need to stay home and raise their kids. Day care should be an absolute last resort, especially with the government we have nowadays.
