And the one constant is despicable support of despicable politicians no matter what. Even if it hurts America and even if it runs counter to the constitution.

 

The same can be said of Republicans on the extreme right.

 

Biden Visits Mexico



U.S. President Joe Biden is meeting his Mexican and Canadian counterparts, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in Mexico on Monday, Jan. 9 and Tuesday, Jan. 10.

The three are expected to discuss the economy, security, and immigration.

Trade is likely to be one prominent subject of conversation. The United States and Canada have both filed for consultations, a step that comes before trade complaints, because López Obrador favors Mexico’s power company. Canada and the United States have said that favoring a domestic company over its Canadian and U.S. counterparts is a violation of USMCA, the trilateral trade agreement that was negotiated and came to replace NAFTA during the Trump administration.

Another subject for discussion—and another possible sticking point—will be immigration, and particularly immigration from and through Mexico and to the United States. The visit in Mexico follows Biden’s visit to the U.S.-Mexican border, and also comes as his administration expands expulsions under Title 42, part of the U.S. public health code invoked by the Trump administration to authorize the expulsion of migrants without allowing them to apply for asylum. The Biden administration’s plan also has increased opportunities for migrants to legally enter the country, though that pathway would be capped at 30,000 admissions per month.

The visit was also preceded by Mexican authorities arresting the son of the drug cartel leader Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzmán, whom U.S. officials suspect was involved in contributing to America’s deadly fentanyl crisis. Mexican authorities deny that the raid and arrest was timed for political purposes, or to signal to Washington that they are a partner in the fight against fentanyl.

Twenty-nine people were killed during the raid and arrest, and a Mexican City federal judge halted El Chapo’s extradition to the United States. Mexico’s Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said formalities of law prevented immediate extradition—perhaps another subject that will come up between Biden and his Mexican counterpart.

Biden seeks action on migrants, drugs in Mexico talks

Mexico City (AFP) - US President Joe Biden on Monday sought tougher action on illegal migration and drugs in talks with his Mexican counterpart Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, as strains showed in the neighbors' approach to tackling the crisis.

Biden is visiting Mexico for the first time as president to meet Lopez Obrador and also hold three-way talks with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at what is dubbed the "Three Amigos" summit.

Biden said that one of his priorities was discussing "the plague of fentanyl, which has killed 100,000 Americans so far," referring to the often-deadly opioid smuggled across the border by Mexican drug cartels.

Another vital issue was "how we can tackle irregular migration, which I think we're well on our way to doing," he said at the start of the talks, calling Mexico a "true partner."

While Lopez Obrador gave Biden a warm welcome on his arrival at the presidential palace, his tone hardened at the formal talks, where the Mexican leader appealed for a change in US attitudes toward the region.

"It is time to end this oblivion, this abandonment, this disdain for Latin America and the Caribbean," Lopez Obrador said.

Biden defended Washington's record, saying it had spent "tens of billions of dollars" in the past 15 years alone that had benefited the region.

"The United States provides more foreign aid than every other country just about combined," he said.

"Unfortunately, our responsibility just doesn't end in the Western Hemisphere," Biden added.

The White House said after the meeting that the two leaders had discussed "increased cooperation to prosecute drug traffickers and dismantle criminal networks, disrupt the supply of illicit precursor chemicals used to make fentanyl, shut down drug laboratories, and prevent trafficking of drugs, arms, and people across our shared border."

They also "reaffirmed their commitment to implement innovative approaches to address irregular migration... and to address the root causes of migration," a statement said.

'Where are our rights?'
On his way to Mexico, Biden made a politically charged visit to the southern US border for the first time as president.

He stopped for several hours in the border city of El Paso, Texas, meeting with US officials and inspecting a section of the tall fencing that snakes along the frontier.

"They need a lot of resources. We're going to get it for them," Biden told reporters after his visit to a customs post.

Just ahead of Biden's arrival in Mexico, a line of migrants, some with children in their arms, were deported from El Paso to Ciudad Juarez.

Venezuelan Jose David Melendez told AFP that he had been apprehended by border guards at a church where he was taking refuge.

"The police officers from the border patrol came and hit us, made us run, pointed guns at us, pointed at children with firearms. Where are our human rights?" the 25-year-old said.

On Thursday Biden announced an expansion of powers to expel people showing up at the border without clearance.

At the same time, a legal, strictly enforced pathway will be created for up to 30,000 migrants a month from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela.

Asked whether the quota could be increased, White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said Washington wanted to see how the changes unfold, adding: "I don't think we have a fixed number in mind."

Handshakes and hugs
Lopez Obrador and his wife Beatriz Gutierrez greeted the US president and Jill Biden at the National Palace for a welcome ceremony notable for its smiles, enthusiastic handshakes and even hugs.

The first wives delivered a joint message in English and Spanish emphasizing the two countries' shared values.

In 2021, the United States and Mexico announced a revamp of their fight against drug trafficking to address the root causes of migration, encourage economic development and bolster curbs against cross-border arms smuggling.

Mexico is plagued by cartel-related bloodshed that has seen more than 340,000 people murdered since the government deployed the military in the war on drugs in 2006.

Days before Biden's visit, Mexican security forces captured a son of notorious drug kingpin Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, who is serving a life sentence at a US prison.

Climate change and cooperation in clean energy technologies will also be on the summit agenda, with Mexico hoping to benefit from Washington's efforts to reduce its reliance on Asia-based manufacturers.

Remarks by President Biden on the Economy and Efforts to Tackle Inflation

1. Home

1. Briefing Room
2. Speeches and Remarks

South Court Auditorium
Eisenhower Executive Office Building

10:42 A.M. EST

THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. Sorry I’m a little late. And I’m due at the — please, have a seat — the National Cathedral at a little after 11:00.

But good morning. Today, we’ve got some good news — good news about the economy. For the sixth month in a row, inflation has come down. Measured over the last 12 months, it has fallen 6.5 — to 6.5 percent. That’s down from 7.1 percent the month before. It’s down from 9.1 percent this summer. Inflation is now at its lowest level since October of 2021.

When we look at the — at the — just the last three months, we see that inflation fell to 1.8 percent on an annualized basis. It’s down from more than 11 percent in the first three months of last year.

So, the data is clear: Even though inflation is high in major economies around the world, it is coming down in America month after month, giving families some real breathing room. And the big reason is falling gas prices.

My administration took action to get more oil onto the market and bring down prices. Now, gas is down more than $1.70 from its peak. And that adds up to a family with — a typical family with two vehicles to a savings of $180 a month, every single month, that stays in their pockets instead of being spent at the pump.

Food inflation is slowing as well. Last month, we saw the smallest increase in food prices in almost two years. And much of that increase was due to the avian flu outbreak, which has driven up the egg prices around — in the United States.

It’s not just gas and food prices though. When we look at what economists call “core inflation,” which takes out energy and food, we see welcome news as well.

Core inflation is down to the lowest level in a year. Over the past three months, core inflation has come down to 3 percent on an annualized basis. That’s down from more than 6 percent at the beginning of 2022. The cost of goods is actually falling as prices for everything from computers to used cars are coming down as well. And inflation in the core services is moderating as well.

You know, and as inflation is coming down, take-home pay for workers is going up. Workers’ wages are higher now than they were seven months ago, adjusted for inflation. Wages for lower-income and middle-income workers have gone up even more.

It all adds up to a real break for consumers, real breathing room for families, and more proof that my economic plan is working.

When I came into office almost two years ago, the economy was flat on its back, as you all remember. Millions of people had lost their jobs through no fault of their own. Millions — millions who kept their jobs saw the hours and paychecks cut. Hundreds of thousands of small businesses permanently closed their doors.

People were hurting badly. That’s what we inherited. The pandemic was raging and the economy was reeling.

We acted decisively to put in place a new strategy that would build a rescue — would rescue the economy from the pandemic downturn. At the same time, we laid the foundation for a stronger, more resilient economy for decades to come — an economy that grows from the bottom up and the middle out.

Now, two years in, it’s clear — clearer than ever that my economic plan is actually working. Here’s what we’ve learned just last week:

Unemployment is the lowest it’s been in 50 years. I’ll say that again: the lowest unemployment rate in a half a century.

My first two years in office were the two strongest years for job growth on record. We created nearly 11 million jobs, including 750,000 manufacturing jobs. And they were the two of the strongest years ever for small-business creation as well.

And today, the unemployment rate is near record lows for
Blacks and Hispanic — Black and Hispanic workers, near record lows. And it’s the lowest ever on record for people with disabilities.

We’re seeing American families breathing a little easier.

More Americans have health insurance than they did ever in our history. Fewer families are facing foreclosures today than before the pandemic.

And we still have more work to do though, but we’re clearly moving in the right direction. And there are more — there’s more breathing room in store for American workers and families.

Starting last week, as of January 1st, a month’s supply of insulin is now capped at $35 for seniors on Medicare. Some were paying hundreds of dollars every month for their insulin, but not anymore.

Starting last week, if Big Pharma raises prices faster than inflation, they’re going to face big penalties.

Starting last week, Americans can get tax credits when they install energy-efficient appliances in their homes, like heat pumps or solar panels, or when they buy electric vehicles.

These were all pieces of what — that big law that we passed last year. Now, they’re kicking in and Americans are starting to feel the benefits in their everyday lives.

But that’s not all.

We’re seeing historic investments in American manufacturing turn into new factories and new jobs from Arizona, Ohio, Georgia, New York.

Companies have announced nearly $300 billion in manufacturing investments here in the United States since I became President. Instead of exporting jobs, like we did for decades, we’re now creating jobs and exporting product. Creating jobs and exporting product, that’s the idea.

Now, the House has elected a new Speaker. I can- — called to congratulate him, and I’m ready to work with him or any Republican in Congress to make progress on the Amer- — on the — for the American people.

But like many Americans, I was disappointed that the very first bill the Republicans in the House of Representatives passed would help wealthy people and big corporations cheat on their taxes at the expense of ordinary, middle-class taxpayers. And it would add $114 billion to the deficit. Their very first bill.

House Republicans campaigned on inflation. They didn’t say, if elected, their plan was to make inflation worse.

Plus, House Republicans introduced another bill: blocking action that would help lower gas prices and help consumers.

And on top of that, House Republicans are preparing to vote on a national sales tax bill. National sales tax, that’s a great idea. It would raise taxes on the middle class by taxing thousands of everyday items from groceries to gas, while cutting taxes for the wealthiest Americans.

And if I’m not mistaken, what they’ve introduced — it also would totally eliminate the IRS. It feels good, except all going to be sales tax. Go home and tell your moms. They’re going to be really excited about that.

Come on. Is this how House Republicans are starting the new term: cutting taxes for billionaires, raising taxes for working families, and making inflation worse?

Well, let me be clear: If any of those bills make it to my desk, I will veto them. I will flat veto them.

I’m ready to work with Republicans, but not this kind of stuff.

If they try to cut Social Security or Medicare, which Americans have been paying into with every paycheck since they have ever have had — got their first paycheck, I’ll use my veto pen to stop that as well.

But if Republicans want to work together on real solutions to lower inflation, create more jobs, build an economy that works for everyone, I’m ready.

Let me close with this. Today’s inflation numbers are good news — good news about our economy. And we have more work to do, but we’re on the right track.

We’re seeing bright spots across the country where great things are happening. Roads and bridges are being built. Factories are coming online. People back to work again. Families breathing a little bit easier.

That’s why I can honestly say — and you’re heard me say this before and I mean it from the bottom of my heart — I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s future than I am today.

We just have to remember who in God’s name we are. You’ve heard me say it many times: This is the United States of America. There’s nothing — nothing beyond our capacity if we work together.

So God bless you all. And may God protect our troops.

(Cross-talk by reporters.)

THE PRESIDENT: O- — okay.

Q Mr. President, classified — classified material next to your Corvette. What were you thinking?

THE PRESIDENT: Let me — they’re — I’m going to get a chance to speak on all this, God willing, soon, but as I said earlier this week, people — and, by the way, my Corvette is in a locked garage. Okay? So, it’s not like they’re sitting out in the street. But at any rate —

Q So the material was in a locked garage?

THE PRESIDENT: Yes, as well as my Corvette.

But as I said earlier this week, people know I take classified documents and classified material seriously. I also said we’re cooperating fully and completely with the Justice Department’s review.

As part of that process, my lawyers reviewed other places where documents might of — from my time as Vice President were stored. And they finished the review last night.

They discovered a small number of documents with classified markings in storage areas and in file cabinets in my home and my — and my — in my personal library. This was done in the case of the Biden Penn — this was done in the case of the Biden Penn Center.

The Department of Justice was immediately — as was done, the Department of Justice was immediately cla- — notified, and the lawyers arranged for the Department of Justice to take possession of the document.

So you’re going to see — we’re going to see all this unfold. I’m confident —

Q When did you find there was a second batch of documents?

(Cross-talk by reporters.)

THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. Thank you.

Hey, how you doing? Good to see you!

Q How’s your wife?

THE PRESIDENT: She’s good.

Q How is the First Lady, sir? How is the First Lady?

THE PRESIDENT: She’s doing really well. She — she was under a long time — for five hours — because what they were doing is they take out — they do the Mohs, meaning remove what they thought what might be cancerous — and they have to then go back and test it and see what it was. But she’s doing really well.

She’s up. We had a — we had breakfast this morning. She’s a — she’s recovering. And she’s going to be sore for a while because of the work they did on her eyes. And — but under — you know, that’s where one of these — these were. But she has a — a zero- — a 0 to 1 percent chance of ever — the return of any cancer.

And so, thank God, she’s doing really well. Thank you for asking.

Know how to tell a politician is lying?
Their lips are moving.
And Biden is one of the best at proving that figures never lie, but liars figure.


But say, while we're being lied to, how's that debt going, Joe?
And what was it you decided to do about ILLEGAL immigration?

 

For real: Today is "National Blame Someone Else Day" - or as Jumbled Joe calls it: 'Friday'.

 

WH Caught in Another Lie About the Search for Biden Classified Documents
By Nick Arama | 4:30 PM on January 14, 2023

Joe Biden’s classified documents scandal just keeps getting worse.


As we reported earlier, Biden’s Special Counsel Richard Sauber found five more classified documents on Thursday evening, but that was only announced on Saturday.



New statement from Richard Sauber, Special Counsel to President Biden notes that his personal attorneys “do not have active security clearances,” so if they came across classified documents “they stopped.” pic.twitter.com/6qpOQYEspA

— Philip Melanchthon Wegmann (@PhilipWegmann) January 14, 2023



“Because I have a security clearance, I went to Wilmington Thursday evening to facilitate providing the document the President’s personal counsel found on Wednesday to the Justice Department,” Sauber said. “While I was transferring it to the DOJ officials who accompanied me, five additional pages with classification markings were discovered among the material with it, for a total of six pages. The DOJ officials with me immediately took possession of them.”

But on Thursday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told everyone the search was “complete” and that Biden was “confident in the process.”

https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/sta...search-for-biden-classified-documents-n688638

She repeated it six times, saying over and over again that “you assume the search has been completed.”

https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/sta...search-for-biden-classified-documents-n688638

She was telling us it was over, that the search was “complete,” even before Sauber found more documents. So, that was just a lie. Then we weren’t even told about those documents that they found Thursday, until Saturday. Can we say what a mess this is? At this point, how can anyone trust what the White House is even saying, when they tell us bald-faced lies like this? Biden and the White House just keep saying that they take it “seriously” and are being transparent, even as they show us that Biden hasn’t taken it seriously and that they haven’t been transparent. They can’t even get their statements straight anymore; they can’t keep up with the lies.

Sauber said that now, they won’t be answering any more questions but referring them to the special counsel appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland. Not like they were telling us the truth anyway, but what nerve. No, you haven’t been forthcoming; you’ve been hiding this since November, so it didn’t blow up on Biden and the Democrats before the election.

But this begs the question once again: why isn’t there law enforcement all over Biden’s homes and office? Why are we taking the Biden White House’s word for this? Where’s the raid from the FBI or a lockdown of the properties? Why is the FBI/DOJ just accepting what they have to say about this?

 

Well, but as we saw with Hillary's classified document thingy, the FBI happily accepts the word of a despicable that they have turned it all over, but if its a deplorable the FBI has to do its SWAT team thingy.

 

Biden knocks ‘fiscally demented’ Republicans in MLK Day speech

Julia Mueller
Mon, January 16, 2023 at 11:59 AM MST


President Biden on Monday called Republicans “fiscally demented” and knocked GOP priorities during the keynote speech at the National Action Network’s (NAN) annual breakfast to mark Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

“They’re gonna talk about big-spending Democrats again. Guess what? I reduced the deficit last year $350 billion. This year, federal deficit is down $1 trillion-plus. That’s a fact. And there’s gonna be hundreds of billions reduced over the next decade. But so what? These guys are the fiscally demented, I think. They don’t quite get it,” Biden said of Republicans, prompting laughter from the crowd.

Biden in his speech offered sweeping remarks on his administration’s work on civil rights and called out Republicans for their economic stances in light of disparities faced by minority communities.

“I think the economy — the way it should grow in America — is from the bottom up and the middle out. That way poor folks have a shot, middle-class people do well and the wealthy still do very well. They still do very well. But they start to pay their fair share,” Biden said.


The president said he’s “ready to work” with Republicans who just took over the House, but said he was disappointed by the first few bills put forward in the chamber.

“Like many Americans, I was disappointed to see the very first bill that House Republicans … are bringing to the floor. It would help the wealthy people and big corporations cheat on their taxes at the expense of ordinary middle-class taxpayers … This is their first bill and they campaigned on inflation. They didn’t say if elected their plan was to make inflation worse,” Biden said.

He called out to former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D) in the audience, saying the California lawmaker was “probably rolling over” when the bill was introduced.

Biden also knocked a House bill on the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and a proposal to implement a national sales tax — and vowed to veto the legislation if it gets through Congress.

“What in God’s name is that all about? … That’s how they’re starting their new term,” Biden said. “If any of these bills happen to reach my desk, I will veto them.”

Biden also talked about building Black generational wealth by chipping away at economic disparities and closing the racial wealth gap — refocusing on funding for historically Black colleges and universities and “aggressively”
combating discrimination in housing.

And the president reiterated calls to ban assault weapons, protect abortion rights and pardon marijuana possession charges. He said he didn’t “want to hear a word from the other side” about his plan to forgive student loan debt.

“These are the same folks who didn’t have any problem at all, any problem at all, during the pandemic… [making] sure they get these so-called pandemic relief loans … A lot of these folks in the Congress on the Republican side were beneficiaries of these debt relief loans to the tune of tens of millions of dollars,” Biden said.

“I did not hear a word from them about ‘They shouldn’t be getting that relief.’ … And they’re complaining about some kid being able to take away $20,000 of student debt that keeps him and his wife or his husband, her husband from being able to buy a home or start a business or just get going?” he said, saying he’s confident his plan will clear the legal challenges against it.

The president closed by saying he was pleased to see Democrats and Republicans work together on the Electoral Count Reform Act and urged Congress to pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and further protect “the sacred right to vote.”

“We have the most vibrant economy in the world right now. We’re doing better than any other major nation in the world today … The path is clear to go forward. We need to go together,” Biden said.

Introduced to the NAN’s annual breakfast by the Rev. Al Sharpton, Biden spoke before an audience of around 350 attendees, including civil rights leaders and members of Congress.

The day prior, Biden gave remarks at the Atlanta church where the slain Martin Luther King Jr. preached, arguing that the country is at an “inflection point” in its fight for democracy and equality.

You just gotta love when Biden and his administration try to put a positive spin on the mess they've made of the economy, immigration, and world affairs.

• Inflation hasn't been this high since the 1980's, but say, it's getting better, and besides, it's Trump's fault!
• Well say, we're taking firm steps to stop the influx of illegal migrants, didja see? We just sent a planeload back to Nicaragua! Never mind the 3 MILLION ILLEGAL migrants who came into the country since I took office. And hell, they don't matter anyway cause we don't know who they are, where they went, or what they're up to.
• And that whole Afghanistan thingy was Trumps fault, and besides, now we have to save Ukraine, which was also Trump's fault.

But despicables can always blame the deplorables. After all, they gave us Trump, and Covid, and a classified document scandal and a riot at the capitol.
And with all that to point to, maybe they won't notice that we're getting jabbed right in the ass every day by despicable policies.

 

I am liking this approach a lot better. One of the problems with President Obama was he was too nice of a guy, no drama, and trying to stay above the fray. Democrats have always been at a huge disadvantage because they tend to fight by Marquess of Queensberry rules while treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republicans fight back ally style using any weapon they can get their hands on. So I am glad to see President Biden taking them head on. In fact this same thing was the first part of the White House press briefings.


White House to McCarthy: ‘Come clean’ on your backroom speaker deals

Tue, January 17, 2023 at 9:32 AM MST


The White House is escalating its fight with newly empowered congressional Republicans, with officials Tuesday calling on House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to “come clean” about secretive deals he made with hardline members that helped him eventually land the top job.

“An unprecedented tax hike on the middle class and a national abortion ban are just a glimpse of the secret, backroom deals Speaker McCarthy made with extreme MAGA members to end this month’s chaotic elections and claim the gavel,” White House spokesman Andrew Bates said in a statement shared first with POLITICO. “It is well past time for Speaker McCarthy and the ultra MAGA Republican House members to come out of the dark and tell the American people, in-full, what they decided in secret.”

While McCarthy has insisted he made no formal agreements in exchange for getting conservative holdouts to vote for him, conservative members have said they received certain promises from the new speaker. They have also pointed to action on their priority legislation as a direct result of the recent House leadership negotiations.

The White House had long been gearing up to paint the incoming House Republican caucus as beholden to their most conservative members. But President Joe Biden has tried to turn the policy implications of Republicans’ priority bills, including legislation to abolish the Internal Revenue Service and replace more progressive income taxes with a national sales tax, into a political cudgel. White House officials also said the Republican leadership talks laid the groundwork for the House to vote on a national abortion ban and argue the GOP will use the debt limit standoff to try to force cuts to Medicare and Social Security.


“The few agreements we know about would fundamentally reshape our economy in a devastating way for working families and criminalize women for making their own health care decisions,” Bates said. “They’re also planning to plunge the economy into chaos and take millions of American jobs and 401k plans hostage unless they can cut Medicare.”

“What other hidden bargains did Speaker McCarthy make behind closed doors with the most extreme, ultra MAGA members of the House Republican conference?” he added. “The American people have a right to know — now — which is why we are calling on him to make every single one of them public immediately.”

McCarthy’s office did not immediately comment, though he’d said when asked about any backroom deals last week: “There’s not a side deal to anything.”

The White House’s more aggressive posture toward McCarthy personally and House Republicans’ policy goals generally comes amid GOP attacks on the president over his handling of classified documents from his time as vice president.

Republicans spent the weekend demanding more transparency from Biden and aides over the discovery of documents and even who had access to his Wilmington home, where some of them were found.

The White House countered by accusing GOP members of hypocrisy, noting that they have pledged to rigorously investigate Biden’s records while not making similar demands of former President Donald Trump.

On a call Tuesday with reporters, Ian Sams, a spokesperson for the White House counsel’s office, said officials are reviewing letters from members of Congress and will make a determination about how to respond to the oversight efforts.

Biden, for his part, has left the counter punching to aides while personally attacking Republicans on policy grounds. On Thursday, he ridiculed the GOP for, among other things, trying to raise taxes on working people while working to cut them for the wealthiest Americans.

“It also would totally eliminate the IRS,” Biden said, referring to a bill House Republicans passed last week. “It feels good, except it's all going to be sales tax. Go home and tell your moms. They’re going to be really excited about that.”



https://www.yahoo.com/news/white-house-mccarthy-come-clean-163208038.html

 

OH, so now the despicables think the deplorables should come clean about the back room deals they make?
Now there's some high grade hypocrisy for ya.

 

Deny, Deflect, Divert....
