Apparently Brandon has a new schtick at the podium... He picks up a hand mic (conveniently placed in the podium) and walks around with it instead of using the podium mic.

Weird.

Joe Biden Was Really Sort of Raised in the Puerto Rican Community

By M Dowling -October 3, 20223

Joe Biden visited Puerto Rico today in the aftermath of the hurricane and promised them millions of dollars. To line the pot, he told them he was sort of raised in a Puerto Rican community. That’s as true as Elizabeth Warren growing up Native American.

Biden made some absurd pandering statements and others that didn’t make sense.

At least we know Jill is very familiar with Hispanic culture. She knows all about “bo-ge-das” and tacos. We all remember her telling a Hispanic group, si, si, pwodway.

“Joe Biden was raised in the Puerto Rican community (total lie), went to synagogue more than Jews (he didn’t), graduated at the top of his class (76th out of 85 people) with 3 degrees (actually 1) on a scholarship (no scholarship) and Hunter Biden’s the smartest guy he knows,” Robby Starbuck wrote on Twitter.

That about says it all.

Biden Administration’s Manipulated Energy Policy Demonstrates Ignorance of History


We could end up being heavily dependent on China, which of course, like Russia, would absolutely use energy policy for leverage.

Consumed, as they have been, with the work of pushing revisionist woke ideology in the schools, it seems the Left missed the lesson that those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it. They’ve learned nothing from the past, not even the recent past.

Yet here we are, looking at the possibility we could repeat the same mistakes Europe made in the late 90s and early 2000s when they failed to realize the real motivations behind the green energy propaganda they were being spoon fed as truth.

Back in the early 2000s, Russia did a phenomenal job with a disinformation campaign pushing anti-fracking in Europe. We know this because NATO admitted that this “green energy” advocacy was funded by the very people who stood to gain from the enacted policies: Anders Fogh Rasmussen, secretary-general of the North American Treaty Organization (NATO) announced in 2014 that “I have met with allies who can report that Russia, as part of their sophisticated information and disinformation operations, engaged actively with so-called non-government organizations—environmental organizations working against shale gas—to maintain European dependence on imported Russian [natural] gas.”

The result was many European nations, like Germany, buying environmental propaganda—hook, line, and sinker—and committing to a fool’s errand of net zero and renewables. Since 2000, Germany will have spent several decades and almost $600 billion on what they have termed Energiewende, which is a complete and utter failure on every front.

Now the Germans, and other Europeans, are heavily dependent on Russian fossil fuels that are being used as a weapon against them. With winter quickly approaching, it’s guaranteed they’re not laughing anymore at Trump’s warnings about being dependent on Russian energy. They are, in fact, staring at the horrifying results of being played by Putin when they could have been energy independent if only they had made the right decisions just a few decades ago. But they didn’t and here they are being hit upside the head by the 2×4 of reality.

Now fast forward to today as we consider the recent past and the miserable lies of “green energy” and “man-made global warming.” It was reported recently that,

The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), a major U.S. green group that has influenced Biden administration policymaking, has deep ties to the Chinese government. The NRDC . . . with total assets exceeding $450 million, has worked on climate issues extensively in China since the mid-1990s and several of its top officials have worked for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) or government-sponsored institutions. The NRDC maintains a close working relationship with President Biden’s administration. The NRDC’s former president, Gina McCarthy, served as Biden’s climate czar up from January 2021 until earlier this month.

So here’s a group with very close ties to the Chinese Communists, and probably funding from the ChiComs, that is pushing the idiotic green policy that has failed so spectacularly in Germany. Why? As I have said many times, if you want things in DC to make sense, just follow the money.

Where are two-thirds of solar panels made today? China. Where will 101 of the 136 electric vehicle battery factories be located by 2029? If you guessed China again, you would be correct.

A lot of the Biden Administration’s energy policy is influenced by a group with close ties to the ChiComs who would stand to benefit financially from a green energy policy. That’s bad enough, but let’s think ahead a bit. As Russia is currently using energy policy in Europe as a weapon, what happens, God forbid, if America goes down this path? It’s obvious from Germany that “renewables” could never actually meet the energy needs of an advanced economy. But beyond that: the supplies necessary for “renewables” and electric vehicles are made in, primarily, China. We would end up being heavily dependent on China, which of course, like Russia, would absolutely use energy policy for leverage.

This is all idiocy, a boondoggle with serious national security implications and and the infantile Left is falling for it, again. They are dangerous fools, intent apparently on bringing this country to its knees and making it subservient on the international stage to nations that hate us. Again those who don’t know their history are doomed to repeat it and yet here we go again.

White House Panics As Gasoline Prices Rebound, Mulls Export Ban, Blasts OPEC+ "Hostile Acts"



OPEC+ could be on the verge of one of the largest production cuts in two years, a move White House officials would undoubtedly have a 'panic attack' as they attempt to dissuade the 23 crude-producing countries and its allies, such as Russia, from making the cuts.

OPEC+ is considering cutting 2 million barrels a day, and on the smaller side, a reduction of 1-1.5 million barrels a day, delegates said. Such a move would be a blow to Washington as the Biden administration has scrambled to unleash record amounts of crude from the strategic petroleum reserve to tame soaring crude prices this summer.

"Higher oil prices, if driven by sizeable production cuts, would likely irritate the Biden administration ahead of US midterm elections," Citi strategists wrote in a note.

Citi strategists appear correct: CNN obtained some of the draft talking points circulated by the White House to the Treasury Department this week and called the prospect of a production cut a "total disaster" and "hostile act."

"There could be further political reactions from the US, including additional releases of strategic stocks," the strategists added. They said the Biden administration could also push forward with an anti-trust bill targeting OPEC.

But that's not all. According to Bloomberg, White House officials are discussing possible export bans on gasoline, diesel, and other refined petroleum with the Energy Department.

People familiar with discussions said administration officials are discussing export bans of refined products with top oil industry leaders as the risk of an OPEC+ reduction could catapult fuel pump prices higher ahead of the midterm elections in November.

And given the resurgence in crude and wholesale gasoline prices, regular pump prices are set to soar again...

Another person said the Energy Department is analyzing the economics of an export ban. Bloomberg said both people familiar with talks asked not to be identified because discussions are still private.

Despite Biden's SPR drain, hitting levels not seen since 1984, the export ban could be the most controversial move yet by the desperate administration to tame pump prices ahead of the midterm elections next month.

Biden's political emptying of the SPR has left it with a record low of just 22 days of supply...

Top oil execs and industry experts have blasted the proposed export ban, saying it could backfire and result in even higher gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel prices, while throwing energy markets into turmoil in Europe ahead of winter.


In a letter to the Energy Department, Exxon's CEO Darren Woods wrote last week that "continuing current Gulf Coast exports is essential to efficiently rebalance markets—particularly with diverted Russian supplies."

"Reducing global supply by limiting US exports to build region-specific inventory will only aggravate the global supply shortfall," Woods said.

On Tuesday, the American Petroleum Institute warned any attempt to ban exports will disrupt not just global markets but harm US national security and geopolitical standing. API continued:

Banning or limiting the export of refined products would likely decrease inventory levels, reduce domestic refining capacity, put upward pressure on consumer fuel prices, and alienate US allies during a time of war. For these reasons, we urge the Biden administration to take this option off the table and focus instead on working with us on policies that will strengthen US energy security and protect consumers.

API outlined the major points from a July study via the American Council for Capital Formation about the economic impacts of a potential export ban of refined products:

1. An export ban could result in the shuttering of an estimated 1.3 million barrels per day of US refining capacity (7% of US total) due to trapped refinery production in the Gulf Coast. The loss of this capacity would likely strand a surplus of crude oil in the Central United States, halting important upstream energy production.

2. An export ban could result in higher product prices for US fuel consumers, with more than two-thirds likely to experience price increases of more than 15 cents per gallon for gasoline and 45 cents per gallon for distillates.

3. An export ban could cause a net loss to US GDP of more than $44 billion in 2023.

4. An export ban could eliminate 85,000 jobs this year and 35,000 job losses during 2023.

"There simply is not sufficient pipeline connectivity or the range of economic shipping alternatives that would be required to transport significantly more fuel to the East Coast from refineries in the Gulf, API continued, adding, "Banning exports of fuel from the United States will not eliminate this challenge or make it easier and more affordable to supply American-refined fuel to the East Coast. Instead, by cutting into global fuel supplies, it would likely raise the cost of fuel imported into the East Coast from the global market."

They're forcing President Diapers into a game of chicken. Drain ALL your strategic petroleum reserves that were filled with historic lows just to make the stupid pay less at the pumps in the run up to a historic Election of Repudiation. When it comes time to refill the SPR it will be at historic highs. He really thinks he's doing something valid when all he's doing is making America weak...again. This is what the DNC always do. Everytime they're in any position of power they go to great lengths to badmouth America to it's allies and the world as well as it's citizenry and it's foes all pay attention and gleefully take advantage of this weakness. All in a ruse to make people feel like his actions are reducing the price at the pumps, it's almost treasonous. Not many really see it for what it is and claim that we've turned a corner. It's all lies. To make matters worse, OPEC+ is now reducing the amount it's willing to pull out of the ground in a classic Supply vs Demand price gouging that once again enriches them.


"The President is disappointed by the shortsighted decision by OPEC+ to cut production quotas while the global economy is dealing with the continued negative impact of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. At a time when maintaining a global supply of energy is of paramount importance, this decision will have the most negative impact on low'er- and middle-income countries that are already reeling from elevated energy prices.

The President's work here at home, and with allies around the world, has helped to bring dowm U.S. gas prices: since the beginning of the summer, gas prices are down $1.20 - and the most common price at gas stations today is $3.29/gallon. At the President’s direction, the Department of Energy will deliver another 10 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to the market next month, continuing the historic releases the President ordered in March.

The President will continue to direct SPR releases as appropriate to protect American consumers and promote energy security, and he is directing the Secretar)' of Energy to explore any additional responsible actions to continue increasing domestic production in the immediate term. The President is also calling on U.S. energy companies to keep bringing pump prices down by closing the historically large gap between wholesale and retail gas prices — so that American consumers are paying less at the pump.

In light of today’s action, the Biden Administration will also consult with Congress on additional tools and authorities to reduce OPEC's control over energy prices.

Finally, today’s announcement is a reminder of why it is so critical that the United States reduce its reliance on foreign sources of fossil fuels. With the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, the U.S. is nowr poised to make the most significant investment ever in accelerating the clean energy transition while increasing energy security, by increasing our reliance on American-made and American-produced clean energy and energy technologies."

Biden’s Comments About Climate Change Show He’s Out Of Step With Florida’s Hurricane Response



While visiting Florida to survey the damage done by Hurricane Ian, President Joe Biden once again reminded the country of his ineptitude.

Rather than focus on the plights of suffering Floridians during a Wednesday press conference with Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, Biden went out of his way to advance his party’s statist agenda by falsely asserting that the destruction caused by Hurricane Ian was a result of climate change.

“I think the one thing [Hurricane Ian] has finally ended is the discussion about whether or not there’s climate change, and we should do something about it,” he said, while bizarrely claiming that DeSantis has “recognized this thing called global warming.”

https://tinyurl.com/22uyfzdb

Continuing in his nonsensical diatribe, Biden couldn’t help but try to compare a small kitchen fire at his residence in 2004 to the countless homes destroyed in the wake of Hurricane Ian.

“I know from experience how much anxiety and fear [and] concern there are in the people,” he said. “We didn’t lose our whole home, but lighting struck, and we lost an awful lot of it about 15 years ago.”


https://tinyurl.com/2p99yn8a 


Now, as conservatives, we could feign outrage and pretend to be upset. We could quote angry little Swedish girls, wave our fists in the air, and shout, “How dare you, Mr. President!” But at the end of the day, can we really say we’re all that surprised by the idiocy and insensitivity Biden displayed?

Throughout his career, Biden has always been a pompous, good-for-nothing hack who has spent more time in Washington denigrating those far more successful than him in the name of politics than actually catering to the needs of the American people. Just look at his time on the Senate Judiciary Committee, when he used his position as committee chair to slander and demean stand-up public servants such as Robert Bork and Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

Even before his last remaining brain cells began malfunctioning in recent years, the then-vice president told a mostly black audience during the 2012 presidential campaign that GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney and Republicans wanted to put them “back in chains.” And who could forget Biden’s more recent comments from earlier this year comparing Republicans opposed to his radical agenda to segregationists?

No matter how hard legacy media tries to paint him as a gentle old man, they can’t hide the fact that Biden has always been a callous blowhard who wouldn’t make it in the real world if he tried and will always use every available tragedy to advance his own career. Just like so many of his elitist Washington-based counterparts, Biden will always place politics above everything else, even as the people he’s supposed to represent continue to suffer under his disastrous and incompetent leadership.

The Fox News anchors had their way with him! I was LMMFAO! They're not wrong on any points either!

They missed the best FY to the face. Pedo Joe can say nobody screws with a Biden...then the Gaffe Machine brings his little Presidential podium down to Florida and lets a REAL LEADER stand behind it addressing the media. I caught it. The 1:23 mark of the vid does too. Stop it, put it on freeze...stare at it. Someday...that man...will be not only standing behind that podium alone, but sitting behind the Resolute Desk as well.

Gov. Ron DeSantis did, you blithering idiot. Right in front of you...and the nation! You were played as the jerk you really are. Come down here with your taxpayer money to make it rain...do your photo op and claim it was Climate Change that manufactured Hurricane Ian that damaged the state that poked you in the ass over your Covid mandates. Hot miked stating your backhanded threats to the mayor of a devastated Ft. Myers. They both had a good laugh but you tell me if that was the appropriate time and place to show the "real" Lunchbox Joe? Ground Zero for a natural disaster, death toll climbing, lives and business ruined...the carnage mere feet from where you want to show the World your ass.

EVERYONE FU(KS WITH BIDEN! Everyone is above his diminished capacity. Even 40 years ago he was a lying racist dullard. Hey, Lefty put this on the nation though.
