Gov. Abbott Destroys Biden In Scathing
Remarks Over the Border
Posted By: Imright, 1/6/2023 6:57:51 PM
Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) called out President Joe Biden’s severely delayed response to the border crisis. Abbott vented his frustration with the administration saying it’s “about time” Biden makes a trip down to the southern border to see the “chaos” that he has created. The Texas governor’s comments come after Biden announced that he will be visiting the border this weekend for the first time since taking office two years ago. “I think what his proposal is going to do is to entice even more people to come here illegally," Abbott cautioned, adding “Biden talked about the Republicans having no plan.

Sometimes, these articles almost write themselves. Or, due to hypocrisy, dishonesty, or unintentional humor, many stories beg to be covered. This is one of them, and the cast is perfect: an ex-Republican congressman, MSNBC, and the Democrat-weaponized FBI — with the CIA tossed in as a bonus.
Our tale begins with Kentucky Republican Rep. Thomas Massie’s revelation that now-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy agreed, as part of a deal with GOP lawmakers opposed to his speakership bid, to the formation of a committee modeled after the 1975 Senate Select Committee, formed by Senator Frank Church, which investigated abuses by the CIA, FBI, National Security Agency, and the IRS,

border trip, but send him off with list

More than a dozen House Republicans praised President Joe Biden for making time ahead of his international trip to visit the U.S.-Mexico border but sent him off with a long list of expectations.
Led by first-term Texas border Rep. Monica De La Cruz, the 14 Texas Republicans urged Biden to make demands during his meeting with Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador in Mexico City this week based on what he learns in El Paso, Texas, on Sunday.
“We congratulate you on visiting the U.S.-Mexico border for the first time,” the lawmakers wrote in a letter sent Friday and shared exclusively with the Washington Examiner.
During an interview with CBS’ “The Takeout” podcast recorded on Thursday and released on Friday, former NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci claimed that the term “is such a nebulous, generic term” and “we don’t even use the word gain-of-function.”
CBS News Chief Washington Correspondent Major Garrett said, “There are acolytes of Elon Musk who say when you read gain-of-function, you should just translate that to bioweapon.”
Fauci responded, “That’s absolutely incorrect. For example — the reason we don’t even use the word gain-of-function. We use the word what kind of guardrails do you need to put on a proposed experiment,

lawsuit from San Francisco to Texas for
fair trial 0 replies
Elon Musk claims he can’t get a fair trial in San Francisco and wants the trial for a shareholder’s lawsuit over a series of 2018 tweets moved out of the Bay Area, according to a report.
The Tesla mogul wants the lawsuit — accusing him of causing volatility in Twitter’s share price after he claimed he had enough financing to take the company private — heard in West Texas, which includes the state capital of Austin, where he moved Tesla’s headquarters in 2021.
If not, the trial should be delayed until the negative media coverage surrounding Musk’s $44 billion acquisition of Twitter calms down.
NBC executives are reportedly regretting renewing Jimmy Fallon’s $80 million contract, now that Greg Gutfeld of FOX News is the ratings king of late night TV.
Gutfeld regularly beats many if not all of the network late shows in ratings while people ignore has-beens like Jimmy Fallon.
The late night schedule will probably look very different in a year or so.

When President Joe Biden makes his first visit to the border with Mexico on Sunday, he will hear from aid workers helping manage the immigration crisis and from local officials desperate for more support.
What he won't see are the miserable makeshift camps dotted around El Paso that triggered headlines last month about migrants taking over the streets.
On Tuesday and Wednesday law enforcement teams moved through the downtown area, picking up migrants who had entered the country illegally.
As a result, he may get a view of the border but not of the crisis, say infuriated border agents
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell chimed in late Friday evening to congratulate now-Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy.
McCarthy weathered days of opposition, eventually offering enough concessions to secure the votes needed to break the logjam. Most of the conservatives involved seemed to walk away happy, garnering key positions on committees and rule changes that should bring the House back to some level of sanity.
For his part, McConnell decided to drop the following message, and I’m officially dead. I cease to be alive.(Tweet) I’m not sure there’s anything conservatives despise more than being gaslit by their own leadership, and this is gaslighting of the highest order.
Christian colleges and universities are seeing an increase in enrollment despite the national enrollment rate of college students being on a decline, higher education experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The national undergraduate enrollment rate dropped 1.1% during the fall 2022 semester while the rate declined a total of 4.2% since 2020, according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. Many faith-based institutions, however, saw an increase in enrollment which higher education experts claim is because of these institutions’ commitment to their roots.
President Joe Biden congratulated House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) on being elected to the position Saturday, saying he is ready to work across the aisle in a divided government.
“The American people expect their leaders to govern in a way that puts their needs above all else, and that is what we need to do now,” Biden said in a statement, congratulating him on his speakership.
“As I said after the midterms, I am prepared to work with Republicans when I can and voters made clear that they expect Republicans to be prepared to work with me as well,” he added. “Now that the leadership of the House of Representatives has been decided,
During MSNBC’s coverage of the House Speaker votes on Friday, Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) reacted to House Speaker Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) speech after being elected Speaker by stating that McCarthy “making it a priority to go after the FBI” is “not a promising indication” of the priorities of House Republicans.
Host Ayman Mohyeldin asked, “Speaking of the work that is about to get underway, we got a glimpse, if you will, of perhaps both the managerial style or the leadership style of Kevin McCarthy, but also the substance of what he wants his conference and this House to do under his leadership in that speech that he gave.
President Biden is reportedly “all in” on a second run for the White House — with an official announcement to come within weeks.
“I think it’s all about timing at this point,” one Biden ally told The Hill Saturday. “It seems like he’s all in. It’s not really ‘if’ he runs anymore.”
The 80-year-old Biden, the oldest president in the nation’s history, would be 82 if he is inaugurated a second time – and 86 by the end of his potential second term.
He and his senior aides are preparing an announcement for release in February
You will never hear this covered by the corporate media and it will be ignored by even the most conservative news sites. But conservative journalist Tayler Hansen wrote a long thread today revealing what he witnessed on January 6th where he walked side by side with Ashli Babbitt.
What you are about to read is a thorough destruction of the media and leftist narrative on January 6th along with a story of state-sanctioned murder. The January 6th Committee did not want to hear from Hansen because he knew the full truth.

Some House Democrats are concerned that their Republican colleagues could shoot up Congress after metal detectors were removed from the House of Representatives, they told Raw Story.
“A lot of my Republican colleagues glorify violence and proudly display the firearms they have in their offices, so it just makes me nervous that we could have a workplace violent event. They’re not the most stable people,” Democratic California Rep. Eric Swalwell said in an interview this week with Raw Story.
On the 15th ballot over a series of four days, Rep. Kevin McCarthy finally won the coveted title: Speaker of the House.
'That was easy, huh?' McCarthy began in his victory speech - shortly after South Carolina Representative Mike Rogers had to be held back from attacking Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz.
The two Republicans almost came to blows over Gaetz's refusal to back McCarthy during the 14th vote, costing him that contest, with the violent clash coming as tempers frayed over the mammoth voting-process.
Consumers can take a lot, but when you start raising prices on staples like eggs and milk, a definite din begins to rise from the streets.
(Snip) Thus ensued an excited conversation between shoppers and the employee posting the new sign that read "$5.49" for a dozen large eggs. That's up from an average national price of $1.72 less than a year ago.
The reason eggs are so pricey appears, at face value, to be simple supply and demand: "Millions of birds died. Eggs now cost nearly 50% more."
A recent article in Bay Nature magazine is titled "The Latest Bird Flu Pandemic Is Terrible—and Strange."

The Department of Defense has begun implementing the name commission's recommendation to rid the department of its names tied to the Confederacy.
Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment William LaPlante directed all DOD organizations to begin "full implementation"(Snip)The panel recommendations include new names for nine Army bases that currently commemorate Confederate officers, including Fort Bragg in North Carolina to Fort Liberty; Fort Benning and Fort Gordon in Georgia to Fort Moore and Fort Eisenhower; Fort A.P. Hill, Fort Lee, and Fort Pickett in Virginia to Fort Walker, Fort Gregg-Adams, and Fort Barfoot; Fort Hood in Texas to Fort Cavazos, Fort Polk in Louisiana to Fort Johnson; and Fort Rucker
Republican Kevin McCarthy has been elected as the new US Speaker after winning the 15th vote following chaotic scenes in Congress.
Mr McCarthy's party had taken control of the House – the US lower chamber – following the midterm elections in the autumn, with a slim 222-212 majority.
Usually, election of the Speaker follows seamlessly, as a formality, with the leader of the largest party a shoo-in for the job.
However, recent splits in the Republican party meant that did not happen until the 15th round of voting. In the 14th ballot, Mr McCarthy received 216 votes - one shy of the number needed for a victory - as a small faction

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has congratulated Republican politician Kevin McCarthy on becoming Speaker of the House of Representatives, telling him Ukraine is counting on his “continued support” and more U.S. aid.
“Congratulations to [Kevin McCarrthy] on his election as the Speaker of the [United States] House of Representatives,” Zelensky wrote on social media. “U.S. support in all fields has been vital for [Ukraine’s] success on the battlefield. We’re counting on your continued support and further U.S. assistance to bring our common victory closer,” he added.

Burger chain McDonald’s said Friday that it will review corporate staffing levels and aim to build more restaurants as part of an updated business strategy.
The new plan, announced in a letter from Chief Executive Officer Chris Kempczinski to global employees and seen by Reuters, calls for the Chicago-based company to cancel or “de-prioritize” some initiatives while also accelerating development.
That could lead to layoffs in some areas and expansion in others, the company said.
A former British officer criticized Prince Harry’s characterization of his time with the military as "ill-judged" and said it "doesn’t reflect reality."
"That’s not the case at all, and it's not the way the British Army trains people as he claims," Col. Richard Kemp, former British Army officer, said during an appearance on BBC Breakfast. "I think that sort of comment that doesn't reflect reality, is misleading and potentially valuable to those people who wish the British forces and British government harm, so I think it was an error of judgment." Kemp, who commanded U.K. forces in Afghanistan in 2003, clarified his comments to Fox News Digital
Between 2018 and 2022, movie theater attendance dropped in half, and I do not want to hear any excuses about the pandemic.
People will go to the theater to see a movie that appeals to them. Spider-Man: No Way Home proved this last year. Top Gun: Maverick proved it this year. Avatar: Way of the Water is proving it right now. And those are just the blockbusters.
People also crept out of their homes to see Everything Everywhere All at Once ($69M), Elvis ($151M), Uncharted ($148M), Nope ($123M), Where the Crawdads Sing ($90M), The Woman King ($67M), Free Guy ($122M), The Lost City ($105M), and Ticket to Paradise ($68M).
