Joe Biden was going to mask for 10-days after Jill's rebound infection on Wednesday, but the mask was nowhere in evidence at Joe's Thursday campaign event in Maryland


 The on-going COVID-19 emergency which Joe ignores is also the excuse for the $10k student loan bailout even though the Biden administration is arguing that because the COVID-19 emergency is over Trump's Title 42 policy at the border must come to an end.

Got it?

Good.

Italy has another opportunity to vote for someone who wants to end the immigration emergency: Giorgia Meloni of The Brothers of Italy Party


Giorgia Meloni, leading the race to become Italy's next prime minister, was accused on Monday of shameful electioneering by her rivals after posting a video of a Ukrainian woman being raped by a migrant in an Italian city. ...

Meloni, whose Brothers of Italy party heads the polls ahead of a Sept. 25 national election, tweeted the video, which had been posted on a newspaper website with the image blurred but the woman's cries clearly audible.

"One cannot remain silent in the face of this atrocious episode of sexual violence against a Ukrainian woman carried out in daytime in Piacenza by an asylum seeker," Meloni wrote.

"A hug to this woman. I will do everything I can to restore security to our cities."

Biden is breaking the law by canceling student loans, and everybody knows it

A COVID-19 emergency excuse is even less persuasive today than it was when Pelosi last year said Biden doesn't have the authority to cancel the loans.

This will be stopped by the courts, same as Biden's illegal vaccine mandate for the private sector was stopped.

Still waiting, however, for the courts to reverse the illegal deprivation of the former president of access to his own papers. 

So don't hold your breath.

This out of control and senile old man Joe Biden should be impeached and removed from office.

US Department of Education, Office of the General Counsel, January 12, 2021, here:

All federal student loan programs administered by the Department are funded through annual Congressional appropriations drawn from the Treasury. These appropriations are conditioned on the Department’s faithful execution of the laws authorizing that loans be made available to eligible borrowers and then repaid or collected. See 20 U.S.C. §§ 1077a, 1078, 1078-3, 1078-6, 1078-7, 1080, 1080a, 1082, 1083, 1085, 1087e, 1087-1, 1087gg, 1091b, 1092b, 1092c, 1095a, 1098e. Although Congress could enact legislation authorizing the Department to provide blanket or mass cancellation, compromise, discharge, or forgiveness of student loan principal balances, and/or to materially modify repayment amounts or terms, it has not done so. See 20 U.S.C. §§ 1077-10 – 1077-12, 1087e(f), 1087e(h), 1087ee, 1091b, 1098d. Rather, Congress has explicitly authorized cancellation, compromise, discharge, or forgiveness, and/or material modifications to repayment amounts or terms only in very limited circumstances. See, e.g., 20 U.S.C. §§ 1087e(f), 1087e(h), 1094(b)(3), 1098aa, et seq. ...

Title IV’s plain text and statutory scheme, and controlling interpretative canons, compel us to conclude Congress appropriated funds for student loans with the expectation that such loans would be repaid except in very specific circumstances.

Libertarian America is as deluded today by cannabis as Italy was by astrology during the Renaissance



Taking cannabis regularly in your mid-20s can cause permanent damage to the brain and its legalization in some states has wrongly suggested to many that it is safe, the head of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) has told DailyMail.com.

Dr Nora Volkow, who has led the agency for almost two decades, warned that cannabis use among young adults was a 'concern' and called for more 'urgent' research into the 'potential health risks' for the age group.

Her agency — which is part of the National Institutes of Health — revealed Monday that a record number of 19 to 30-year-olds were using cannabis in 2021, with one in ten admitting to using it every day. Around 30 percent used the drug at least once a month, with four-in-ten having used the drug at least once last year. ...
 

Health agencies in the U.S. have been warning for years there is a 'real risk' that cannabis can harm a person's mental development and their social life — including triggering problems with relationships, education and careers.

But their concerns have largely been swept under the carpet as many states push forward with legalizing the drug for recreational use.

In November another six states — Arkansas, Maryland, Nebraska, North and South Dakota and Oklahoma — are set to decide whether to also liberalize the drug's use.

More.

The FBI illegally deprived Trump access to his papers, and the hullabaloo about classified materials is total crap: Merrick Garland is a renegade who should be impeached

The Presidential Records Act became effective in 1981, at the start of Ronald Reagan’s presidency. It established a unique statutory scheme, balancing the needs of the government, former presidents and history. The law declares presidential records to be public property and provides that “the Archivist of the United States shall assume responsibility for the custody, control, and preservation of, and access to, the Presidential records.” 
The PRA lays out detailed requirements for how the archivist is to administer the records, handle privilege claims, make the records public, and impose restrictions on access. Notably, it doesn’t address the process by which a former president’s records are physically to be turned over to the archivist, or set any deadline, leaving this matter to be negotiated between the archivist and the former president. The PRA explicitly guarantees a former president continuing access to his papers. Those papers must ultimately be made public, but in the meantime ... the PRA establishes restrictions on access to a former president’s records, including a five-year restriction on access applicable to everyone (including the sitting president, absent a showing of need), which can be extended until the records have been properly reviewed and processed. Before leaving office, a president can restrict access to certain materials for up to 12 years. ...
In making a former president’s records available to him, the PRA doesn’t distinguish between materials that are and aren’t classified. That was a deliberate choice by Congress, as the existence of highly classified materials at the White House was a given long before 1978, and the statute specifically contemplates that classified materials will be present—making this a basis on which a president can impose a 12-year moratorium on public access.

Jimmy Carter may very well be as upset as the next guy from Tehran that Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie [Ibn Rushd] has survived the knife attack

 Jimmy Carter doesn't have to work too hard to be unlikable, but he does it anyway.

Rushdie for his part, like Rush Limbaugh, is a serial monogamist who can't seem to find a wife he likes, or who likes him.

Or maybe the wives just couldn't stand living under the cloud of the Ayatollah's 1989 fatwa, after which Rushdie divorced three times.

Carter threw gasoline on the fatwa fire with this piece in the paper of record not even three weeks after the fatwa was issued.

 



I'm pretty sure just one of those guys is white
