U.S. Can’t Show Weakness to Communist China and Iran, Only the Strong Buy
Former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo questioned the Biden Administration‘s foreign policy on Newsmax TV on the 22nd. He said that because China (Communist) and Iran, these dictatorial regimes only buy the accounts of the strong, so the United States must not show weakness to them.
Pompeo said he hoped to give the Biden administration “everything to do right it opportunity”, but also worried that Biden on some issues “is about to throw away everything (the Trump Administration) results …… and almost nothing back. ” And authoritarian regimes such as the Chinese Communist Party and Iran only recognize who is strong.
He is particularly worried about U.S. policy toward the Middle East and the Chinese Communist Party, especially Iran. He said the Biden administration announced plans to rejoin the infamous Iran Nuclear Deal when Trump was purposely withdrawing from it.
Pompeo believes the Biden administration’s move could undermine much of what the U.S. has done previously in the Middle East.
I do worry that the current administration wants to go out and soothe the Iranian regime, wants to embrace them intimately and appease them,” he said. And all of that could bring danger to the Middle East. When you bring danger to the Middle East, countries don’t have the heart to think about doing the right thing every day.”
“That’s why President Trump has quickly pursued a strategy, an effort, and a plan that puts real pressure on that (Iranian) regime. And now they (the Biden administration) will throw away all of those strategies in exchange for what appears to be almost nothing.”
Biden’s Gun Restriction Proposal May Turn 100 Million Legal Gun Owners Into Criminals
Gun rights groups sent a letter to Biden calling for changes to his “commonsense gun law reforms,” noting that the proposed gun restrictions could turn the nation’s 105 million law-abiding gun owners into instant criminals.
While we agree that some ‘common sense’ and long overdue reforms to our nation’s gun laws are needed, we strongly believe that the way forward should focus on supporting and protecting responsible gun ownership,” the U.S. Concealed Carry Association wrote in the letter. path should be focused on supporting and protecting responsible, law-abiding Americans, not criminalizing and punishing them.”
“The Concealed Carry Association of America exists to help responsible Americans avoid danger, save lives and keep their families safe, and we believe elected leaders in Washington, D.C., have an excellent obligation to pursue those same goals.”
The association has about 556,000 members. They believe Biden’s push for gun control on the third anniversary of the Parkland, Florida, high school school shooting is an unnecessary move, according to its website.
The association notes that the year 2020, amid the historic “Black Lives Matter” (BLM) riots and the Chinese Communist virus (Wuhan pneumonia) pandemic, prompted a large number of Americans to buy guns.
According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), as many as 8.5 million people bought their first gun in 2020.
Reporter Fires Back at Biden State Department Spokesman: Taking Credit for Trump Administration Achievements
State Department spokesman Ned Price held a press conference on 22nd, highly praising the Biden administration’s achievements. An Associated Press reporter couldn’t resist and said from the bottom of his heart, “These accomplishments were made by the previous administration.”
Nord Stream 2, an $11 billion gas pipeline project linking Russia and Germany across the Baltic Sea, is designed to bring Russian gas to Germany. If the pipeline is completed, Europe will be more dependent on Russian energy than ever before.
The Biden administration on Friday confirmed sanctions against two Russian companies involved in the Nord Stream-2 pipeline project, but Trump had already imposed sanctions on both companies.
“We will continue to work closely with Germany and we will continue to work closely with our other allies and partners in Europe to maintain the energy and security goals that Europe has set for itself,” Price said of the recent news about Nord Stream-2.
“Don’t you think it’s a little hypocritical to take credit for the fact that 18 companies stopped doing business?” Matt Lee, an Associated Press reporter, shot back, “All this work was done by the last administration, and you’ve only been in office for …… a month. Right? You’re telling me that in the last four weeks, these 18 companies suddenly decided to say, ‘Oh, my God! We better not do anything for Nord Stream-2.'”
“All this, you’re taking credit for something the last administration did!” Reporter Lee continued, “Isn’t that right?”
According to Fox News, senior Republican lawmakers have criticized the Biden administration’s moves as doing little to stop Nord Stream-2 construction and the new sanctions as redundant.
On his last day in office, Trump announced sanctions against the Fortuna and its company, KVT-RUS, for participating in laying the pipeline. The Biden administration did not punish other companies or individuals involved in Nord Stream-2.
Who is America’s favorite president? New Survey Tells You
A new survey of readers asked them to choose their favorite five U.S. presidents, and Trump came out on top. Obama came in first among the five least favorite presidents.
The online survey was conducted from Feb. 9 to 21. More than 128,000 readers filled out the survey, including more than 72,000 subscribers.
Commentator Wang Dukran commented that the survey base was large, with more than 100,000 people. The concept is traditional, so the readers are also traditionalist, that is to say conservative, so they have to be more supportive of Trump than the average median in the U.S., so it is natural to produce this result.
The survey shows that 95 percent of people voted for Trump as their favorite president. Ronald Reagan came in second. Next came Washington, the first president of the United States, and President Abraham Lincoln, who were chosen by more than 70 percent of readers. In fifth place was former President Jefferson (Thomas Jefferson).
Next was former President John F. Kennedy, former President Theodore Roosevelt and Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Readers also selected their five least favorite presidents, all of whom were Democrats.
Barack Obama came in first, with 95 percent of people voting for him as their least favorite president. Biden ranked second, Clinton (Bill Clinton) ranked third, followed by Jimmy Carter (Jimmy Carter) and Johnson (Lyndon B. Johnson), these five are the survey’s least favorite president.
The next few are George W. Bush, Roosevelt, Richard Nixon, George H.W. Bush Sr. and Woodrow Wilson.
Revolt! Democratic senators may derail epidemic bill
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), the former governor of West Virginia and a moderate Democrat, recently said he does not support a plan to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour and advocates raising it to $11 an hour. The approach is creating resistance to the White House’s epidemic bill passing the Senate.
“I support something that is basically responsible and reasonable,” Manchin told The Hill. He believes the current minimum wage plan is too aggressive and “I would amend it to $11 to reach that target in two years and be better than $15 in five years.”
Because Democrats hold a small advantage in Congress, the Democrats have used the “budget reconciliation” legislative process, which allows Democrats to move bills forward without Republican support and with their party’s votes alone. However, the White House bailout still requires a Manchin vote to pass the Senate without Republican support.
The White House’s $1.9 trillion epidemic relief bill is advancing through Congress recently, with the relevant bill passing the House Budget Committee 19-16 on Feb. 22, and will be considered for a vote in the House this week.
“House conservatives reveal what the Biden bailout is hiding
U.S. media outlet Breitbart News reports that the Democratic coronavirus bill contains “at least $312 billion” in non-pandemic-related policies.
The Republican Study Committee (RSC), the largest conservative caucus in the U.S. House of Representatives, released a fact sheet this week revealing “what Democrats hope the public won’t find” in the $1.9 trillion Biden bailout.
In a memo sent to members after Democrats released the full 591-page “American Rescue Plan Act of 2021” on Feb. 19, the RSC’s newly elected chairman, Jim Banks, noted that Democrats had put all the “special interest pork” and “other liberal goodies” into the bill.
“Of that $1.9 trillion, only 1 percent would go to vaccines, and only 5 percent of the entire package would be for public health efforts directly related to the outbreak.” Banks told Fox News.
Biden’s bailout is a “bailout bill full of kickbacks to Democratic special interests that give them (interest groups) rights,” such as $10 million for each union, a bailout for Planned Parenthood and bailouts for illegal immigrant families.
“If that wasn’t bad enough, House Speaker Pelosi installed a $200 million earmark for underground tunnels in San Francisco for Silicon Valley employees,” Banks said, “and that’s a bailout for the special interests that gave them power back.”
According to the memo, the bailout will give the EPA up to $50 million in environmental justice grants (EPA environmental justice grants) allegedly “a thinly veiled kickback to leftist environmental groups.”
The RSC said the bailout would provide only $600 million for additional paid leave for federal employees and postal workers.
The RSC noted that the bailout appears to encourage school closures by providing $130 billion on top of the $110 billion already given to schools, even if those schools remain closed.
As for the federal minimum wage, the RSC accused the bill of “job-killing” by raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour.
“In fact, a Wall Street Moody’s analysis estimates that 7 million jobs would have been created this year if my American rescue plan had been passed.” He added.
