What Happened In Washington
Over the weekend, to the great joy of Israelis, four hostages kidnapped on October 7th were rescued by the Israeli Defense Forces. The hostages were being held in the home of a “civilian,” Abdallah Aljamal, a spokesman for Hamas and journalist for Al Jazeera and the Palestinian Chronicle. The latter media outlet holds 501(c)3 non-profit status here in the United States.
Meanwhile, in Washington, D.C., there was a previously planned but outrageous demonstration of Hamas supporters. They surrounded the White House and yelled their support for jihad and martyrdom.
They also defaced multiple historic statues of American heroes. The demonstration went on for hours, and a Park Police officer was assaulted. According to preliminary reports, no arrests were made.
A few blocks away, another demonstration was taking place – the annual “pride parade” in Washington, D.C. The current female police chief for the District of Columbia proudly marched in the parade, and no doubt instructed her officers not to make any arrests at the Hamas demonstration at the White House.
Can there be a better symbolic example of what’s happened to America than these two events in our nation’s capital?
Radical Islamists and their sympathizers chanted calls for another genocide against the Jews and attacked America’s heroes, and nobody did anything to stop them. And just a few blocks away, virtually naked men were dancing and twerking through the streets, while irresponsible parents brought their children and applauded it all.
There are no reports that the two groups ever crossed paths, as they did recently in Philadelphia. Violence almost erupted when the Islamofascists and the alphabet people arrived at an intersection at the same time.
These two groups have very little in common. But they both perceive that their major enemy is Judeo-Christian civilization, and both groups are devoted to bringing that civilization down.
Both groups are also attempting to steal your children and indoctrinate them in various ways. Both groups are part of today’s progressive movement. Both groups will spend millions of dollars to turn out their voters in November.
Biden’s Bogus Order
As we previously reported, Joe Biden’s executive order on illegal immigration is a total sham. It was already full of loopholes, but now we’re learning that there are even more loopholes.
A memo was just sent to the San Diego sector instructing Border Patrol agents how to operate under Biden’s new order. Virtually anyone intercepted from more than 100 countries in the eastern hemisphere must be released into America because we don’t have the operational resources to deport them.
The only exception to this massive loophole are illegal aliens from Russia and five other former Soviet Union states.
But this notion that we don’t have the resources to deport all the other illegal aliens is really puzzling since we know the Biden administration is literally flying in hundreds of thousands of people directly from their home countries via an app.
This app is not impacted at all by Biden’s latest executive order on illegal immigration. The app is the equivalent of a legal port of entry. Instead of going to a port of entry, illegal aliens just use the app. They don’t show up in most statistics because they’re not “illegally crossing” the border; they are being flown in.
Remember all those secret flights of illegal aliens that were landing under the cover of night? The Biden administration is able to find all kinds of planes to fly illegals into the country, but we have no planes to send them back.
This is a total charade! It is nothing more than a political gambit. But Joe Biden only needs to fool some voters into believing he is really doing something about the illegal immigration crisis he created. The latest CBS News poll has Donald Trump barely leading Joe Biden by 50% to 49%.
Biden’s Weakness
President Joe Biden returned to the United States after several days in France, marking the 80th anniversary of D-Day. Before he left, he met with French President Emmanuel Macron. Unfortunately, Biden continues to display moments of physical weakness, confusion, and befuddlement that are deeply troubling. And the verbal gaffes continue.
At one point, Biden was describing isolationism in America and told French reporters, “The idea that we had to wait all those months just to get the money for Iraq, it’s just not who we are. It’s not who America is.” The war in Iraq ended on December 15, 2011 – more than 12 years ago.
I understand that anyone who frequently speaks in public will occasionally make verbal gaffes. But people who are not mentally diminished will hear the mistake, stop, and correct themselves.
Over the years, many commentators and politicians have confused Iraq and Iran, and they corrected themselves. But how do you confuse Iraq with Ukraine and not correct yourself?
Even more troubling were the things Biden intended to say. Most notably, he repeated the bizarre claim that climate change is the only existential threat facing the world, an even greater threat than nuclear weapons.
That’s what he meant to say. That’s what he did say. And that’s an insane thing to say! There is no world leader of a major power who thinks climate change is a bigger threat than nuclear war.
Never mind the obvious fact that even a regional nuclear war will have a tremendous effect on the environment and global warming.
By the way, not many years ago, the left regularly told us, as their excuse to oppose defense spending, that a nuclear war would have no winner and would destroy the planet.
Now, as Biden stumbles his way into a nuclear war with Russia, he is telling us that mushroom clouds over major cities are less of a danger than the temperature at Death Valley going from 118 to 120.
The last time I checked, there were no cities in Death Valley because it’s a desert!
Biden’s Green Military
Is this just rhetoric by Biden? Is he merely trying to get all the left-wing environmentalists to vote for him? No. It’s policy, too.
Speaking on Fox News this weekend, Rep. Michael Waltz (R-FL) noted that a top goal of the U.S. Army is to be “carbon neutral” in a few years. So they’re trying to figure out how to electrify tanks.
The Pentagon is also spending precious dollars trying to switch military bases from regular electricity to solar power. As a result, they are buying massive amounts of solar panels from communist China.
So, yes, there are real policy consequences. Biden’s military will be a “green and gay army.”
