White House: China’s Peace Plan for
Ukraine and Russia ‘Not a Sustainable Option’
Posted By: earlybird, 2/28/2023 8:24:47 PM
WASHINGTON—White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby, who has voiced concerns about Beijing’s growing ties with Moscow and involvement in the Russia–Ukraine conflict, says he doubts that the Chinese proposal to end the fighting would work. (snip)Beijing issued a paper titled “China’s Position on the Political Settlement of the Ukraine Crisis” on Feb. 24 in an effort to portray itself as a mediator in the year-old war. Beijing referred to the paper as a “peace plan,” although it contained few details. The paper called for “respecting the sovereignty of all countries” and stated that “the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of all countries must be effectively upheld.”

The Treachery of VP Mike Pence Explained
18 replies
Finally, President Donald Trump chose to lob a verbal grenade in the general direction of his old VP Mike Pence last Sunday night — regarding Pence’s ability to formally contest the results of the stolen 2020 election. This was, for many Trump supporters, long overdue. Here is Trump’s statement on the matter: (snip)The reason that Mike Pence did not exercise the power to lawfully contest the election is because Mike Pence was never a Trump loyalist. He’s a GOP establishment loyalist. There were plenty of problems inside the Trump Administration, and Vice President Mike Pence was at the center of many of those problems. In fact,
Supreme Court Slashes IRS Penalty Against
Taxpayer for Not Reporting Foreign Bank Accounts 4 replies
Taxpayer for Not Reporting Foreign Bank Accounts 4 replies
The Supreme Court ruled 5–4 in a fractured opinion on Feb. 28 that the IRS imposed an excessive fine on a businessman for failing to report foreign bank accounts, reducing the financial penalty from $2.72 million to $50,000.
The decision came after the U.S. House of Representatives, now controlled by Republicans, voted in January to repeal a congressional provision allotting almost $80 billion to the IRS over the coming 10 years for increased enforcement.
Democrats say the IRS has long been underfunded, but Republicans say the extra money will be used to harass taxpayers. Only 4 percent of the additional funding will be devoted to improving taxpayer service, while 58 percent will
FIRST ON FOX: The reputed boyfriend of a former American swimming champion found dead in the U.S. Virgin Islands last week was convicted and served prison time for the 2007 beating death of a Pennsylvania man, according to local sources.
Kamal "Six Pack" Thomas, a 34-year-old Georgia native and longtime St. John "bad boy," was dating Jamie Cail, the 42-year-old swimmer who police say was found dead by her boyfriend last week, three independent sources on the island, who asked to remain anonymous citing safety concerns, tell Fox News Digital.

This is it. This is pure MAGA. President Trump is announcing the big one… “Economic Agenda 47“
This is the economic policy blade to drive a stake through the vampire heart of corporatism, globalism and the exploitation of the U.S. economy by multinational corporate interests. This “universal baseline tariff” approach, is the policy that slays the dragons of the World Economic Forum, destroys the Beijing dragon and simultaneously ends the EU Marshal Plan advantage. This is a big deal.
President Trump makes the economic policy announcement today, and it is an incredible structure of trade and economic proposals that would be resoundingly effective at restoring every financial mechanism within the United States
The Defense Production Act (DPA 1950 amended, pdf) essentially is a legislative hurdle that stops the executive from stepping into the private sector and restricting trade, commerce or manufacturing, unless the President says a critical shortage of “xxxx” is present and national security is at stake. It prevents citizens from the threat of govt nationalization of resource “xxxx”.
In the event the President makes a national security determination, he/she is required to inform congress, invoke the waiver authority, and identify which sectors he/she is now outlining as a national security… such that government purchase orders take precedent in the supply of “xxxx”. Yesterday, President Biden invoked this authority.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) stated that two older adults who received Pfizer’s respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine during a clinical trial were subsequently diagnosed with the rare neurological disorder Guillain-Barré syndrome.
Briefing documents (pdf) released on Feb. 24 ahead of this week’s meeting of the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee flagged the two cases of the disorder and stated that Pfizer’s vaccine poses a potential risk.
“Given the temporal association and biological plausibility, FDA agrees with the assessments of the investigators that these events were possibly related to study vaccine,” the FDA stated in the documents. “Therefore, [Guillain-Barré] is being considered an important potential risk.”
A national divorce is impractical, and the prospect of a civil war, which is what happened last time it was tried, is horrible. (snip)The first of these truths is simple: The moral and cultural divisions in our nation are probably as deep as those preceding the Civil War. There is a multitude of polling and punditry on our polarization, but it can perhaps be best summed up by noting that we can’t even agree on what a woman is — the Biden administration, along with many blue states, is literally putting male criminals in women’s prisons on the theory that trans women are women, full stop. This level of disagreement,
Here’s a question I have. I am looking forward to your opinion. I have my own. In the Trump -vs- DeSantis storyline the following data points are generally agreed:
♦Approximately 75% of the Big Con “INFLUENCERS” (Big $) and punditry Support Ron DeSantis
♦Approximately 25% of the Small “Influencers” (Small $) and Indy punditry Support Donald Trump.
Meanwhile, amid the voting base the inverse is true:
♦Approximately 25% of the conservative, working-class, base voters support Ron DeSantis
♦Approximately 75% of the conservative, working-class, base voters support Donald Trump
Reconcile this inversion. What does it mean?

I was reminded of the flap over Jill Biden’s doctorate while watching NFL football some weeks ago as a commentator pointed out that “Dr. Jill Biden”(snip) was in attendance. It must be at her own insistence that she is given the public designation, and anyone who fails to applaud risks angry censure by the bien pensants.
The subject of “Dr. Jill” originally erupted even before her husband took office, when an opinion piece by the essayist Joseph Epstein called on her in December, 2020 to “drop the doc.” Epstein’s “Is There a Doctor in the White House? Not if you Need an M.D,” appearing in the Wall Street Journal,

At first, I thought this story was fake. Then I thought it was likely just a misinterpretation of events. However, I was curious enough to just go look for myself, because there are quite a few people noticing it now. Indeed, the initial reports were not wrong.
The background story of how Senator John Fetterman’s wife reacted to the news of her husband’s hospitalization for clinical depression is just weird.
Apparently, Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman’s family did not go to Washington DC with him.
So, if you want to understand, if you really want to understand how the American government actually works at the highest levels, and if you want to know why they don't teach history anymore, one thing you should know is that the most popular president in American history was Richard Nixon.(snip)without a single vote being cast by a single American voter, Richard Nixon was kicked out of office and replaced by the only unelected president in American history.(snip)Richard Nixon believes that elements in the federal bureaucracy were working to undermine the American system of government

Twitter users recoiled after President Biden gave intimate details of his treatment in a medical facility Tuesday.
Biden was speaking about healthcare policy in Virginia Beach, Virginia, when he told a story about a nurse he said was named Pearl Nelson.
"She'd come in and do things I don't think you learn in nursing school," he said.
She'd whisper in my ear, I couldn't understand, but she'd whisper, and she'd lean down and actually breathe on me to make sure there was a human connection," Biden continued.
Pennsylvania Republicans are calling on Democrat Senator John Fetterman to appear on camera to prove he is “alive and well” or resign.
“Because of the now confirmed lies that were told during the 2022 general election regarding the health of Senator John Fetterman, as well as the threats made against a journalist who interviewed him, the Washington County Republican Party refuses to take assurances from the Office of the Senator or Democrat operatives that Fetterman is able to carry out his duties as Senator,” the Washington County Republican Party said in a Facebook post.
“As such, we call upon Senator Fetterman to appear on camera
A proposed Oregon bill would provide the deep blue state’s homeless population $1,000 per month that recipients could use at their own discretion.
The bill, introduced last month, would establish a People’s Housing Assistance Fund Demonstration Program to give 12 monthly thousand-dollar payments to those suffering from homelessness or who are on the brink of becoming homeless.
“Payments may be used for rent, emergency expenses, food, child care or other goods or services of the participant’s choosing,” the bill states.
People who spend more than 50 percent of their monthly household income on rent, and those who earn 60% or less of the area median income would also be eligible for the funding.
As RedState reported on Tuesday, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot lost her reelection, and not by a little. According to the polls, she was something of an afterthought, falling well behind Paul Vallas and runner-up Brandon Johnson who got 33.77 and 20.29 percent of the vote respectively.
Lightfoot limped into third with 17 percent of the vote.
Naturally, like any good radical leftist, Lightfoot took no personal responsibility for her loss, choosing to blame it instead on others. In this case, the entire city of Chicago is guilty of being sexist and racist as reported by the New York Post:
“I’m a black woman in America. Of course,”
Governor Chris Sununu (R-NH) said Tuesday on SiriusXM POTUS channel’s “The Briefing” that he is considering running for president in the Republican primary.
Host Steve Scully asked, “When does Governor Chris Sununu announce that he is running for president?”
Sununu said, “Oh boy. Look, I’ll tell you – I don’t know when that is and the if and when, maybe this summer, we’ll get to that. But I’ve got to tell you, we have created this organization, and I think that’s why we’re getting a lot of national attention, and I’m honored in that the New Hampshire model is really successful. And so people have asked me
She won’t be doing any dancing tonight.
Chicago Democrat Lori Lightfoot on Tuesday became the Windy City’s first incumbent mayor in 40 years to lose re-election as rising crime in the city steered voters away from the embattled leader.
Receiving only 16.4% of the vote, Lightfoot, 60, finished behind former head of Chicago Public Schools Paul Vallas and Cook County Commissioner Brandon Johnson in Tuesday’s race.
Vallas, who took 35% of the vote, and Johnson, who obtained 20.2% of the vote, will head to an April 4 runoff election to determine who will be the city’s next mayor.
Joe Biden on Tuesday traveled to Virginia Beach, Virginia to discuss his administration’s so-called efforts to protect Americans’ access to ‘affordable’ healthcare.
Biden’s speech was full lies and bizarre stories.
Joe Biden falsely claimed his trillions in spending got the economy back on track.
Then he repeated the same bizarre story about a nurse who whispered in his ear and breathed on him.

Taking His Nintendo Switch Will Be Tried

A 17-year-old student who continued to viciously beat his high school teacher after he knocked her unconscious for taking his Nintendo Switch will be tried as an adult.
Brendan Depa, 17, will be tried as an adult for the brutal beating of Joan Naydich, 57, at Palm Coast, Florida’s Mantanzas High School.
The vicious and deeply disturbing assault was captured on security camera footage, which shows a student pushing a teacher to the ground and knocking her unconscious before going on to punch and stomp on her as she lies motionless and defenseless. The mother of two was struck at least 15 times in the back of the head. [Video]
During an interview with the Fox News Channel released on Tuesday, FBI Director Christopher Wray publicly confirmed that the FBI assessed that the COVID virus most likely originated from a lab by stating that the agency has, “for quite some time now, assessed that the origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan.”
Wray said, [relevant remarks begin around 16:45] “[T]he FBI has, for quite some time now, assessed that the origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan.”
He continued, “Let me step back for a second, the FBI has folks, agents, professionals, analysts, virologists, microbiologists, etc. who focus specifically
A group of Donald Trump supporters were booted from a Ron DeSantis book signing event after he allegedly ordered security to kick out fans of the former president.
The Florida governor was at a Books-a-Million store in Leesburg, Florida, on Tuesday, when Trump supporters attempted to take part in the event.
The group, however, was not allowed in, with video of the incident showing a security telling them: 'They told me to say anyone wearing Trump has to go right now.'
The group then boos at the order, calling DeSantis out for not supporting 'free speech'

In a Congress full of morons, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) certainly fits right in.
Recall Cohen is the same genius who deemed it a good idea to bring a bucket of KFC to a House Judiciary Committee hearing back in May 2019 to mock then-Attorney General William Barr for not showing up.
Cohen only made himself look disgusting.(Photo) Redstate.com reported that during Tuesday’s Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Cohen denigrated Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and other conservative justices by mocking the fact our rights come from God.

Here’s today’s edition of Democrats and their free money.
On Tuesday the Supreme Court will hear a pair of challenges to Joe Biden’s proposed student loan debt handout. Biden announced the plan before the 2018 election in order to fool the youths to vote for Democrats. Biden claimed he has the authority to wipe student loan payments under a law known as the Higher Education Relief Opportunities for Students (HEROES) Act, which initially intended to benefit service members deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq by waiving their student loan debt. Biden applied it to all students regardless of their contributions to the US military.

At first blush it almost sounds Trumpian.
