So ‘We Didn’t Expose’ Nuclear Capabilities
Posted By: Imright, 2/9/2023 12:10:39 PM
During a portion of an interview with CBS News National Security Correspondent David Martin released on Wednesday, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin stated that in response to the Chinese spy balloon that flew over the country last week, the United States ensured that its nuclear bases “were buttoned down” and that “movement was limited and communications were limited so that we didn’t expose any capability unnecessarily.” Austin also stated that the buttoning down applied to nuclear bases all across the United States. Martin asked, “You don’t know what it was looking for, but you certainly know what you were concerned about it looking for.

Joe Biden introduced legislation that would sunset all federal programs, including social security, every four years when he was a freshman United States senator in 1975.
On Tuesday night at the State of the Union, Biden stated that “some Republicans” wish to “sunset” social security and Medicare, leading to significant pushback from GOP lawmakers on the House floor while millions watched.(Video) House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has said on several occasions that Republicans in the House – where the framework to a debt ceiling resolution will be formed – are not seeking to slash the programs
A new detail in the web of information about the trail of Biden documents came to light Friday when the National Archives released email traffic that referenced documents in Boston.
The email, from National Archives lawyer Gary Stern, came days after classified material was discovered in the offices of Biden's DC think tank office at the Penn Biden Center.
Biden and federal officials have located documents at Penn Biden and at Biden's Wilmington home, and have searched his Delaware beach house after the initial discovery at Penn Biden days before the November elections.
A pair of ads about Jesus will air on Super Bowl Sunday as part of a Christian group's efforts to spread a message of love and understanding to 100 million people.
The $20 million advertising campaign, funded in part by the family behind religious craft store chain Hobby Lobby, as well as Christian groups and other anonymous donors, will kick off with two ads centered on the idea that when it comes to Jesus, "He Gets Us."
At a time when the U.S. Christian population is down and religion has become a divisive topic, the group hopes to reach as many as possible and help spread the message of Jesus,
Former Democrat congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard testified at the initial hearing of the newly created House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government and had strong words for Senator Mitt Romney (R-Utah) who accused her of treason.
Last year, the sanctimonious failed GOP presidential candidate suggested that the ex-Hawaii lawmaker was a puppet of Russian leader Vladimir Putin, a baseless smear that has repeatedly been brought against critics of the corrupt regime, especially when it comes to its wars.
“Tulsi Gabbard is parroting false Russian propaganda. Her treasonous lies may well cost lives,” Romney wrote in a March 13, 2022 tweet
Former President Donald Trump phoned Rudy Giuliani and ended up being put on the air during a livestream, where he credited his former lawyer with being 'first to know' about Hunter Biden's laptop.
Trump also told the former New York Mayor he had watched GOP senators Charles Grassley and Ron Johnson testify at Republican Rep. Jim Jordan's hearing on the 'weaponization' of government.
He called it the 'weaponization of justice' and a 'disgrace.'
'Certainly never happened like this before in the history of the country,' said Trump.

Group Is Reportedly ‘Blacklisting’
Conservative Media 12 replies
This week, the Washington Examiner uncovered “Disinformation Inc.” and how it makes money blacklisting conservative “disinformation” spreaders. One of those “disinformation” trackers has multiple ties to none other than liberal billionaire George Soros. The Examiner released a Feb. 9 exclusive about how “well-funded ‘disinformation’ tracking groups are part of a stealth operation blacklisting and trying to defund conservative media” by working to deprive them of large amounts of advertising revenue.
The Global Disinformation Index (GDI) is a leftist British group with two U.S. nonprofit affiliates the Examiner identified
The White House on Friday announced that President Biden's communications director Kate Bedingfield, who has been with the president since his 2021 inauguration, will step down at the end of this month.
Bedingfield will be succeeded by Ben LaBolt, a former adviser to President Barack Obama and current strategist for the communications agency Bully Pulpit Interactive.
Prior to serving as White House communications director, Bedingfield worked as then-Vice President Biden's communications director in 2015-2016, and then found a role on his successful 2020 presidential campaign as deputy campaign manager.
The left-wing crowdfunding website GoFundMe has shut down all fundraisers for an Arizona cattle rancher who defended his property by killing an illegal alien, thus leaving him and his wife to bear the financial burden of the coming legal battle.
The New York Post reports that 73-year-old George Alan Kelly was arrested on Monday on the charge of first-degree murder, with his bail being set at a staggering $1 million.
“GoFundMe’s Terms of Service explicitly prohibit campaigns that raise money to cover the legal defense of anyone formally charged with an alleged violent crime,” said a GoFundMe spokesman. “Consistent with this long-standing policy, any fundraising campaigns for the legal defense

One of the major jobs that Joe Biden is supposed to have is the defense of the nation.
But we see with the case of the Chinese spy balloon, there are big questions about how Biden’s team is responding to such threats. His NORAD Commander Gen. Glenn VanHerck said he didn’t shoot it down after it entered American airspace because he didn’t see it having any hostile intent. Now of course an aircraft from a hostile power breaching our airspace seem perforce hostile and could have any intent — which is why you take it down. In the next sentence, he spoke about how huge it was and that it had
MNSBC host Mika Brzezinski fumed over House Republicans using their power of the majority to have their committees look into abuses by the federal government and look into whether Hunter Biden's shady business deals had anything to do with President Joe Biden.
MSNBC political analyst Elise Jordan said Republicans are not interested in legislating, only airing their grievances against their political opponents.
"I’m going to add to that description of yours, grievance train. They are adding to the grievance train. First off, the obsession with Hunter for whatever they might find is — I think that will backfire, as well. This is President Biden, who’s extremely well-liked, who many believe has accomplished
President Biden visited Tampa, Florida on Thursday and took a jab at Gov. Ron DeSantis over Medicaid, as well as doubling down on his accusation that Republicans want to cut Social Security and Medicare while hinting at punishing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene for calling him a liar.
“Over 1.1 million people in Florida would be eligible for Medicaid if Gov. DeSantis just said, ‘I agree to expand it,'” Biden said, taking aim at DeSantis whom he likely fears just as much as former President Trump. “This isn’t calculus.” (Video) His appearance in Florida, taking potshots at Republicans in DeSantis’ and Trump’s backyard, was a calculated political move
Damar Hamlin says he owes his life to his 'savior,' Buffalo Bills trainer Denny Kellington, after being revived following his on-field cardiac arrest in Cincinnati on January 2.
In an interview that will air Monday morning on ABC, the Bills safety opened up about his near-death experience, and why he's thankful that Kellington sprang into action after Hamlin's collapse during a Monday Night Football matchup with the Bengals.
'I owe Denny my life, literally,' Hamlin told Good Morning America co-host Michael Strahan. 'He loves to say he was just doing his job, which is true. That night he was literally the savior of my life,

On Friday, Sen. John Fetterman’s (D-Pa.) chief of staff stated that campaigning last year may have caused the senator permanent brain damage. While many in conservative media raised concerns about Fetterman’s health and whether he was truly fit to serve in the U.S. Senate, the aide’s admission directly contradicts the note written by Fetterman’s doctor, a Democrat donor, who insisted that Fetterman was fit to serve.
“Overall, Lt. Governor Fetterman is well and shows strong commitment to maintaining good fitness and health practices. He has no work restrictions and can work full duty in public office,” Dr. Clifford Chen wrote last year.
A "high-altitude object" has been shot down over Alaska in the past hour, the White House has said.
Spokesman John Kirby said the object was "the size of a small car" and was over a sparsely populated area at the time.
President Joe Biden took the decision to shoot down the object, which was of unknown origin, Mr Kirby said.
It comes after the US shot down a Chinese balloon over its territorial waters last Saturday. Speaking at the White House on Friday, Mr Kirby explained that the object over Alaska was travelling at 40,000ft and could have posed a threat to civilian aircraft.
He added that its debris field was
The Clintons are back!
The Clinton machine is back in action and restarted its global pay-to-play operation a few months ago.
“Very excited for the return of Clinton Global Initiative next week — now is the time for us to work together and get good things done for people and the planet.” Former President Bill Clinton said in September. (Tweet/Video) Hillary Clinton this week traveled to India to announce the launch of the first global ‘climate resilience’ fund.
She looked like hell.
Clinton wore her signature muumuu as she lectured women in Rann of Kutch, Gujarat.
Sen. John Fetterman was hospitalized Wednesday night after feeling lightheaded at the end of a Senate Democratic retreat, his office said.
The symptoms do not appear to be the result of a new stroke, one of which Fetterman suffered in May 2022 just days before winning Pennsylvania’s Senate Democratic primary.
Fetterman is “in good spirits and talking with his staff and family,” at the hospital, where he will remain overnight while doctors undergo further testing, his communications director, Joe Calvello, said in a Wednesday night statement.
The lingering effects of Fetterman’s 2022 stroke have left him with speech difficulties and trouble processing questions
The Biden administration has determined that the suspected Chinese surveillance balloon that traversed the United States last week was operating with electronic surveillance technology capable of monitoring US communications, according to a senior State Department official.
The balloon "was capable of conducting signals intelligence collection operations" and was part of a fleet that had flown over "more than 40 countries across five continents."
"We know the PRC used these balloons for surveillance," the official said. "High resolution imagery from U-2 flybys revealed that the high-altitude balloon was capable of conducting signals intelligence collection operations."
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R) launched the Live Free or Die committee this week, marking a significant step toward laying the foundation for a White House bid in 2024.
Named after New Hampshire’s motto, Sununu’s Live Free or Die Committee is a 501(c)(4) organization that allows him to raise unlimited funds as he gauges interest from donors.
Sununu confirmed the creation of his committee on Wednesday, telling NBC News he is “excited to talk about the successes that we’ve had in New Hampshire.”
Sununu said:
I’m excited to talk about the successes that we’ve had in New Hampshire: lowering taxes, creating educational choices for parents and kids,
Utah Sen. Mitt Romney told fellow Republican Rep. George Santos, "You don't belong here," in a tense exchange at the State of the Union address Tuesday night as the New York congressman faces numerous investigations. Romney's exchange with Santos lasted for about 10 seconds as lawmakers filed into House Chambers before President Biden's address before a joint session of Congress. Attempts to lipread the interaction spread across the internet, but Romney clarified the address he said, "You don’t belong here."

The House Oversight Committee on Wednesday held a full committee hearing on government-big tech collusion and suppression of speech in regard to the Hunter Biden laptop report.
Republican members were prepared, brought in the evidence, and executed brilliantly at the hearing.
Democrats sounded like self-absorbed liars who support the denial of God-given human rights.
Twitter’s top former censors were on the hot seat all day as they appeared before a Republican-led House Oversight Committee to answer questions

Will “Lia” Thomas made headlines during the 2021-2022 academic year for crushing his competition in NCAA women’s swimming, sparking widespread outrage. After years of being a mediocre swimmer on the men’s team, Thomas woke up one morning and identified as transgender, transitioned, joined the women’s team, and started breaking records against his female teammates and tournament competitors. Since robbing real women of opportunities wasn’t enough for him, he also disrespected his teammates by exposing his male genitalia to them in the locker room.
