Joe Biden's mother is said to have hated the English so much that she told him not to bow down to the Queen ahead of his first meeting with her. President Biden first met the late monarch when he was a young senator in 1982, however just as he was leaving for the airport to fly to the UK, he recalled in a 2013 speech, how his mother phoned him with firm instructions. 'Joey, be polite but do not kiss her ring,' Biden told his audience to laughter. 'Swear to God.'

Biden and his mother always have been and are generations away from being Irish people from Ireland. It would be hard to find a big percentage of true Irish people today who legitimately say that they hate all English people. I know a little about that, as my mother was born on a farm in the West of Ireland and came to the USA as a young woman. Members of her family lived and worked at Coventry and Newcastle in England, and her first cousin, a Catholic Irishman was in the Dunkirk evacuation, and was present at all the great battles in North Africa, Sicily, and in Italy until he was seriously wounded and ended up in a military hospital for over a year. After he war he was appointed as the Principal Roman Catholic Chaplain to the British Army. What Biden is claiming about Irish Catholic people hating English people in general is pure malarky as is most everything else that Biden claims.

My parents were naturalized citizens, coming here from Ireland. I remember my mother being enthralled with the whole story of Elizabeth's father giving up the crown "for the woman he loved". She loved to read and watch films about the Royal Family. My Irish Catholic mom had no hatred for the Royals. To her, it was like a fairy tale.

From the article: "'Joey, be polite but do not kiss her ring,' Biden told his audience to laughter. 'Swear to God.' 1. I don't kiss anyone's ring. 2. The audience is laughing? Doesn't say much about the audience. 3. Swear to God? Makes me curious when someone has to use that reference.

#9 Correction: My apologies to Queen Elizabeth and her father. It was Elizabeth's uncle who chose Wallis Simpson over becoming King of England. The title was then passed to his brother who died at a comparatively early age. The Crown was then passed on to the King's daughter, Elizabeth, who became Queen of England.

Interestingly enough, neither the Queen or any other member of her family has never expected foreigners, including American citizens, and surely not the President of the USA, to bow or curtesy before her or them. Claiming the contrary is just BS. Bowing or curtseying before top British royalty is a traditional and voluntary gesture mainly practiced by UK citizens, Commonwealth citizens, and others who voluntarily decide to abide by tradition.

In commemoration of the launch of our first movie, My Son Hunter, I have attempted to find the origins of the contagion that is Hunter Biden laptop denial. It was one of the biggest stories of the century, broken in one of the country’s oldest papers (the New York Post), and by a terrific reporter (Breitbart’s own Emma-Jo Morris). In an era of endless spin and fake news, this story was 100% factual. Yet it was almost instantly dismissed as Russian disinformation and censored from the Internet. Who was behind this massive hoax? How did they pull it off? Were these people conspiracists, liars, ignoramuses, or some combination thereof?

In the calendar year 2021, 48.3 percent of all employees in D.C. worked remotely. The city of Seattle was a close second at 46.8 percent, followed by San Francisco at 45.6 percent, with Austin and Atlanta at 38.8 and 38.7 respectively in a close tie for fourth place. Conversely, cities like Memphis, El Paso, Texas and Wichita, Kansas rounded out the bottom of the list with a large number of blue-collar employees who necessarily must be on site for their jobs.

Four days before she died, the Queen had an important announcement for the shooting party she had invited to spend a few days at Balmoral Castle. Dinner that Sunday night would be informal, she said. No black tie for the men nor long dresses for the ladies and, unusually, there would be no piper. For decades the skirl of the bagpipes had been an indispensable soundtrack to every occasion at the Scottish castle so this was a real break in tradition. Her guests were her Bowes-Lyons cousins, relatives through the Queen Mother's family to whom she had always been close.

Biden responded: 'Don't. Don't. Don't. You will change the face of war unlike anything since World War II.'

The governor signed the $109.9 billion “Freedom First” budget in June, which invests in education, law enforcement, and provides tax holidays, among other things. A document highlighting some of the biggest initiatives in the budget explicitly states that the budget “creates a $12 million program within the Florida Department of Transportation to facilitate the transport of unauthorized aliens out of Florida”:

Especially considering the “demographic winter,” which is so evident in Spain and Italy. “In Italy there are empty villages with just twenty old ladies and nothing else,” he said. “Why can’t we make a policy in the West where immigrants are included with the principle that the migrant should be welcomed, accompanied, promoted, and integrated?” he asked.

A person can make a compelling case that dropping unsuspecting migrants off in places like Chicago or San Francisco is cruel, but Martha’s Vineyard?

Because I rarely hear the left worry about the latter. Then again, why has a story about 50 migrants spending a couple of days on Martha’s Vineyard garnered far more coverage and outrage from left media and punditry media than 51 migrants being cooked alive in a tractor-trailer only last month?

“The documents were declassified!” “Trump had every right keep them!” “They posed no risk to national security!” Conservatives have been defending Trump with these kinds of arguments ever since the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago last month. They’re missing the point, though. Seeking to prove that Trump did nothing wrong in possessing these documents is like trying to establish that the victims of Stalin’s show trials weren’t in fact Trotskyites. Well, of course they weren’t. But Stalin didn’t care if his enemies – perceived or real – were Trotskyites or “counter-revolutionaries.” What mattered to him was that they were his enemies.
