Chinese Illegal Arrested For Filming Stealth Bombers Near U.S. Air Base

/in , , , , , , , /by

Federal prosecutors on Wednesday announced criminal charges against an illegal immigrant from China accused of photographing sensitive military infrastructure near Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri.

A criminal complaint has been filed against Qilin Wu, a Chinese national who illegally entered the U.S. during the Biden administration, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Missouri. Wu is charged with unlawfully photographing the military installation and military equipment without authorization.​​

The complaint follows a November 2025 investigation by the Daily Caller News Foundation that revealed Whiteman Air Force Base — one of the U.S. Air Force’s most critical installations — shares a perimeter fence with a foreign-owned trailer park linked to a convicted fraudster with ties to Chinese Communist Party (CCP) intelligence.

The investigation began on Dec. 2, 2025, when officials at Whiteman Air Force Base alerted the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI) to a suspicious minivan parked near the base’s perimeter, according to the complaint. The vehicle was observed in close proximity to the installation that houses the B-2 Spirit aircraft.

Air Force security patrols were dispatched to the area and encountered Wu, who allegedly told officers he was there to observe the B-2 aircraft. Patrolmen informed him that photography and video recording of the base were prohibited.

The following day, AFOSI was notified that the same minivan had been spotted along the perimeter fence of the base. Agents responded and made contact with Wu, who admitted to recording videos of the B-2 aircraft and taking multiple photographs of the base’s perimeter fencing, a gate, and military equipment, the complaint states.

Wu also admitted that he had photographed another U.S. Air Force base and its aircraft, according to the complaint.

Federal authorities state that Wu is a Chinese national who illegally entered the U.S. near Nogales, Arizona, on June 22, 2023. He was arrested by immigration officials at the time for unlawful presence, but was later released due to limited detention capacity, according to the complaint.

Wu was scheduled to appear for immigration removal proceedings in February 2027, but U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) re-arrested him on Dec. 3, 2025, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).

The charges come amid heightened scrutiny surrounding Whiteman Air Force Base, which launched the B-2 Spirit strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities in June 2025.

The base shares a perimeter fence with the Knob Noster Trailer Park, a foreign-owned RV park located less than a mile from Whiteman’s runway, the November 2025 DCNF investigation found.

Business records reviewed by the DCNF show the trailer park is owned through a network of shell companies controlled by a Canadian couple linked to organizations associated with disgraced Chinese tycoon Miles Guo. Guo, who has described himself as a former CCP intelligence “affiliate,” was convicted in 2024 of orchestrating a more than $1 billion fraud conspiracy and is awaiting sentencing.

National security experts told the DCNF at the time that foreign ownership of property immediately adjacent to the base poses serious counterintelligence risks.

Biden Repeatedly Ignored Warnings About Border Crisis, Feared Backlash From Left, Insiders Say

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

President Joe Biden reportedly ignored early warnings from advisors that his immigration platform could create a border crisis and dragged his feet on solutions as crossings reached historical levels.

Before Biden was sworn in as the 46th president of the United States, experts were already cautioning his transition team that his immigration positions would likely stir chaos at the Mexico border, according to administration insiders who spoke to the New York Times. Biden and his team rebuffed these warnings, concerned they would lose Latino support and underestimating how much Americans would care about the issue.

“A potential surge could create chaos and a humanitarian crisis, overwhelm processing capacities, and imperil the agenda of the new administration,” read a memo created by several aides before the 2020 presidential election, which was obtained by the NYT.

That memo proved prophetic after Biden immediately got to work on dismantling the border enforcement apparatus established by the first Trump administration and overseeing the largest spike in illegal immigration.

Biden undertook a total of 296 executive actions on immigration in the first year of his presidency, according to an analysis by the Migration Policy Institute. Of these executive actions, 89 reversed or began the process of reversing President Donald Trump’s immigration policies.

The Democrat scrubbed major initiatives undertaken by the first Trump administration, such as ending border wall construction, the shutdown of the Remain in Mexico program and ending the COVID-era Title 42 health order that quickly expelled migrants.

Those actions quickly paved the way for a flood of illegal migrants descending into the country.

There were roughly 8.5 million southern border encounters during Biden’s time in the White House, with fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2024 being the worst years for migrant crossings in history. These numbers not only overwhelmed federal immigration officials and border states, but also became a problem for local officials in the interior of the country, forcing leaders in New York City, Denver and elsewhere to get tougher on illegal migrants.

As the situation at the border continued to escalate, the Biden administration reportedly kept rebuffing proposals to stem the situation out of political fears.

“They were a little too sensitive to criticisms from the left,” Cecilia Muñoz, who oversaw domestic and economic policy for the Biden transition team, said to the NYT.

The crisis dramatically changed Americans’ outlook on immigration enforcement, with polls at the time showing illegal immigration to be a top concern for Americans and more voters believing Trump would better handle the issue than Biden. A February 2024 YouGov survey found a mere 31% of Americans believing Biden to be the better candidate to fix the border, compared to 45% for Trump.

By the summer of 2024, a majority of Latino voters supported mass deportation of illegal migrants, smashing the Biden administration’s assumption that hawkish border policies would alienate the constituency.

In the waning days of their administration, both Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris — who eventually became the Democratic presidential nominee — campaigned heavily in favor of a Senate border bill that, they argued, would’ve solved the border crisis. While Biden blamed Trump for not supporting the bill, insiders say the Biden White House initially wanted nothing to do with the legislation.

Democrat Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy and GOP Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford, the bipartisan pair of lawmakers behind the Senate border bill, said the Biden White House refused to get involved when negotiations first began to gain momentum, according to the NYT.

“We don’t want our fingerprints on these negotiations,” Lankford recalled the White House saying to him, according to the NYT. It was reportedly only after border crossings continued to surge did Biden’s team finally get on board. However, by that time Trump had firmly established himself as the Republican presidential nominee and made clear he did not support the bill, tanking any chance of GOP support.

By the summer of 2024, Biden finally issued an executive order that restricted the number of border crossings, a move that ultimately helped drive down the border crisis, but came too late for an electorate that had already decided Trump was the better candidate on immigration enforcement.

The Biden administration “had no strategy, because they had no goal,” Scott Shuchart, who joined the Biden White House in 2022 as a senior adviser at Immigration and Customs Enforcement, told the NYT.

“All they had was wishing the problem would go away so that they could focus on the things they cared about,” Shuchart continued.

Gov’t Watchdog Scorched Biden Afghan Refugee Screening in 2022, Warned of ‘National Security’ Risks

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Former President Joe Biden’s Afghan refugee screening process was blasted in 2022 by a devastating report by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Inspector General (IG) for lacking such basic information as a list of individuals who lacked “sufficient identification documents” and warned as a result of individuals being admitted into the country “who pose a risk to national security and to the safety of local communities.”

The report provides important context for officials and members of Congress as they assess and respond to the November 26 terrorist attack on the streets of the capital that killed one West Virginia National Guardsman and critically injured a second one.

The attacker, it was quickly determined in the aftermath, was a 29-year Afghan refugee admitted into the U.S. in the wake of the American military withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021. That refugee is one of more than 79,000 Afghans brought into this country under Biden.

Between August 2021 and July 2022, the DHS Operation Allies Welcome (OAW) program brought more than 79,000 Afghans from that war-torn country that was taken over by the Islamic terrorists known as the Taliban. Of the total, almost 29,000 of the Afghans brought into the United States by the Biden administration program were males, including many of military service ages.

The IG report found two crucial flaws in the OAW screening and vetting process, flaws that DHS officials roundly denied existed in their response to the watchdog’s analyses.

First, the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) officials involved in the screening and vetting “did not always have critical data to properly screen, vet, or inspect Afghan evacuees. … We determined some of the information used to vet evacuees through U.S. Government databases, such as name, Date of Birth (DOB), identification number, and travel document data, was inaccurate, incomplete, or missing.”

As a result, the report said, “CBP also admitted or paroled evacuees who were not fully vetted into the United States.”

The precise number of such individuals could not be determined with the available information, according to the IG report, but evidence was overwhelming that “DHS paroled at least two individuals into the United States who posed a risk to national security and the safety local communities and may have admitted or parole more individuals of concern.”

The identities of the two particular individuals were not included in the report.

A major obstacle to U.S. efforts to properly screen and vet Afghans, the report stated, was the fact “it is customary in Afghanistan for some individuals to have only one name. It is not always part of the Afghan culture to record or know exact DOBs. In Afghanistan, even though national legislation requires registration of children at birth, years of conflict decimated the administrative mechanisms and the social institutions supporting them.”

Consequently, whenever an Afghan told CBP officials they did not know their DOB, the official entry was January 1 of the estimated year of birth. “For example, if an evacuee stated he/she was 20 years old, the DOB most likely assigned was January 1, 2001,” the report explained.

The IG’s investigators reported they found 417 records with no known first name, 242 records with no last name, 7,800 records had invalid or missing document numbers, and 11,110 records with the January 1 DOB.

The investigators also reported encountering 36,400 records based on what was described as a “facilitation document.” But CBP officials were unable to “define or provide an explanation for this document type Travel Document Data,” and 36,400 records had “facilitation document” as the document type. However, during the audit, CBP could not define or provide an explanation for this document type, indicating potential inaccuracies.”

A second major flaw in the screening and vetting process was the fact “DHS did not have formal screening and vetting policies to support OAW” at the outset of the program, as the U.S. military withdrawal was launched.

“Instead, during the initial months of OAW, DHS officials said screening and vetting requirements were decided on an ad hoc basis. DHS and CBP did not have standardized formal policy documents and instead could only provide informal flowcharts, meeting minutes, and draft documents,” the report said.

The final conclusion of the IG’s investigators was that “the safety and the security of the American people is the highest priority for the U.S. Government. Preventing criminals, suspected terrorists, or other nefarious actors from entering the United States requires thorough screening and vetting. CBP’s use of incomplete or inaccurate data would not have yielded positive matches from intelligence databases if the individuals had derogatory records under a different name or DOB. Therefore, DHS and CBP cannot be sure they properly screened, vetted, and inspected all evacuees.”

The DHS response to the 2022 report was to reject it entirely, including the IG recommendation that all questionable individuals be re-screened and vetted.

“DHS responded that it was proud of its OAW efforts and highlighted multiple agencies involved in the screening and vetting of the Afghan evacuees. The OIG acknowledges the interagency efforts supporting this unprecedented event to screen and vet all evacuees. However, DHS’s response does not address the concerns of this audit and the recommendations which are aimed at reviewing the execution of OAW’s efforts and improving future, similar OAW efforts,” the IG concluded.

On Feb. 13, 2024, then-DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was impeached by the U.S. House of Representatives for “high crimes and misdemeanors” in his administration of U.S. immigration policies. Mayorkas thus became the first presidential cabinet member to be impeached by the House. The impeachment was not upheld by the Senate.

The 2022 IG assessment was first reported in the aftermath of the attack on the guardsman by veteran conservative investigative journalist Richard Pollock on Substack.

Trump’s Resolute Stand Ensures Legitimacy in Executive Actions

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

In a move that underscores a commitment to transparency and proper presidential authority, President Donald J. Trump announced on November 28, 2025, the nullification of executive orders and other documents issued by the Biden administration that were signed using an autopen without the president’s direct involvement.

“I am hereby cancelling all Executive Orders, and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the Autopen did so illegally,” Trump stated in a post shared via the White House’s official X account.

This declaration highlights longstanding concerns about the authenticity of signatures during Biden’s term, suggesting that aides may have overstepped by using the device without explicit approval, potentially compromising the integrity of key policies.

The autopen, a mechanical tool designed to replicate a president’s signature for efficiency, has been a fixture in the White House since the mid-20th century. First popularized under President Franklin D. Roosevelt for wartime correspondence, it allows leaders to handle voluminous paperwork remotely.

Legal experts have long affirmed its use, as outlined in a 2005 Justice Department opinion during the George W. Bush administration, which deemed autopen signatures valid for legislation if authorized by the president.

However, Trump’s announcement pivots on the allegation that Biden’s team bypassed this critical step, estimating that up to 92% of Biden’s directives were handled this way.

This raises questions about whether such actions truly reflected the will of an engaged executive, especially amid reports of Biden’s delegation-heavy approach.

Trump’s initiative builds on his first-term practices and second-term promises to streamline government and reverse what many see as burdensome regulations.

Upon returning to office in January 2025, he swiftly revoked numerous Biden-era orders on issues like border security, energy independence, and federal equity programs — moves praised for restoring focus on American priorities.

The latest blanket revocation targets an estimated 149 out of 162 executive orders from Biden’s presidency, including those on environmental protections, vaccine requirements, and diversity initiatives in government contracting.

Supporters argue this ensures that only duly authorized actions endure, preventing unelected staff from wielding undue influence and safeguarding the constitutional chain of command.

Reactions from Capitol Hill and beyond reflect the polarized landscape, yet many view the move as a bold correction to perceived administrative overreach.

Figures like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene have echoed sentiments that this could extend to revisiting other autopen-affixed decisions, such as pardons, to uphold accountability.

On social media platforms like X, discussions have surged, with users highlighting the need for presidential oversight in an era of complex governance.

One post noted, “Every time Trump has done an executive order/pardon, you see him signing it. He is not using autopen,” emphasizing a contrast in leadership styles.

Viral memes and commentary, such as “Arrest the AutoPen,” capture the public’s frustration with what some call a “puppet presidency,” fueling calls for greater scrutiny.

Critics, including Democrats, have labeled the announcement as unnecessary theater, with former President Biden dismissing it as baseless.

Legal scholars point out that while presidents can rescind prior orders, challenging them solely on the signature method is uncharted territory. “Autopens have been used by every modern president,” noted one expert, though acknowledging the debate over authorization protocols.

Environmental and civil rights groups are preparing challenges, arguing that abrupt changes could disrupt ongoing programs tied to international commitments like the Paris climate accords.

Yet, proponents counter that such reversals allow for policies better aligned with economic growth and national security, free from what they describe as unchecked bureaucratic expansion.

The broader implications touch on executive power in a divided nation. Trump’s post, garnering millions of views, amplifies discussions about trust in government processes.

House Speaker Mike Johnson has commended efforts to “restore presidential integrity,” while international outlets report allied concerns over potential shifts in aid and trade directives.

Domestically, federal agencies are reviewing impacts, potentially pausing initiatives on green energy and immigration that many conservatives argue have strained resources and borders.

At its heart, this development addresses deeper anxieties about leadership authenticity during Biden’s tenure, marked by perceptions of heavy staff reliance amid health speculations. White House logs suggest routine reviews, but investigations have uncovered instances of autopen use for sensitive matters, prompting Trump’s team to act decisively.

This isn’t unprecedented — presidents often undo predecessors’ work, from Obama’s reversals of Bush policies to Trump’s dismantling of the Iran nuclear deal. However, the scale here emphasizes a return to hands-on governance, appealing to those who prioritize direct accountability.

As courts prepare for inevitable challenges, possibly escalating to a Trump-influenced Supreme Court, the episode reinforces the dynamic nature of American policy. Federal actions embedded in law may require congressional input to fully unwind, but the initial stroke signals a proactive agenda.

For many, it’s a welcome reset, clearing the path for initiatives focused on prosperity and sovereignty.

Trump framed the action as essential housekeeping, a “beautiful resolute” step toward efficient rule. In a time of rapid change, it reminds us that enduring policies demand unquestionable legitimacy. As 2026 approaches, this could energize efforts to fortify borders, boost energy independence, and curb federal overreach – priorities long championed by those seeking a stronger America.

NEW DOCUMENTS: Biden White House and AG Garland Colluded to Weaponize DOJ to Label Parents at School Board Meetings “Domestic Terrorists”

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

After colluding with the NSBA to produce a letter calling for a crackdown on concerned parents, Biden DOJ officials rushed to draft a memo to weaponize the federal government against those parents, emails show.

“WH has been in touch.”

Pure evil. The Inevitable results of a stolen election, a coup. Garland should be behind bars. All of them must be brought to justice.

These new documents expose the Biden White House’s involvement in AG Garland’s memo targeting parents — and reveal that career lawyers at DOJ warned that there was no federal authority or legal basis to target these parents in the first place because their speech is protected by the First Amendment.

The documents show that after receiving the National School Board Association (NSBA) memo, which called on DOJ to use the Patriot Act to prevent parents from objecting to mask mandates in schools and Critical Race Theory in the curriculum, DOJ’s political leadership worked to identify anything — any authority — they could use to bring the full weight of the Justice Department down on parents.

The problem was that all the advice from the DOJ career lawyers was that there was no law within the Justice Department’s purview that applied to parents speaking at school board meetings…

Despite setting off a weekend fire drill to find “any authorities CRT enforces” so that DOJ could act quickly to respond to the NSBA, Sparkle Sooknanan was explicitly advised that the instances cited by the NSBA “likely fall outside of our jurisdiction.”

A conservative legal group revealed a tranche of correspondence on Friday from the Biden administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ) shedding new light on the behind-the-scenes discussions about a controversial directive former Attorney General Merrick Garland gave about school boards.

The document dump included an email from a deputy attorney general aide that said the DOJ was searching for a “federal hook” to use to address a letter the National School Boards Association (NSBA) wrote to the White House raising alarm about parents who were, at the time, expressing outrage at school board meetings across the country over COVID-19 mandates, critical race theory, and transgender policies.

“We’re aware; the challenge here is finding a federal hook. But WH has been in touch about whether we can assist in some form or fashion,” deputy attorney general aide Kevin Chambers wrote to a colleague on Oct. 1, 2021.

Documents: Biden AG and White House Conspired to Chill Local Parents’ School Board Protests

By: Lowell Cauffiel, Breitbart, 19 Jul 2025

Damning revelations in federal documents obtained by a conservative watchdog group show the Biden administration’s Justice Department sought a “federal hook” so they could investigate and criminally charge parents protesting school policies related to COVID, transgenderism, critical race theory, and other issues.

Career attorneys in the DOJ argued in the released correspondence that such a move was legally baseless and would trample the First Amendment rights of parents.

The government documents, obtained by America First Legal, “conclusively prove” a memo from former U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland “mobilized the full force of the federal government’s firepower against concerned parents—not to protect schools, but to silence dissent”  and the ensuing investigation was “politically orchestrated and coordinated with the Biden White House,” America First Legal charged Friday.

The AFL in an extensive release on its website reported:

These never-before-seen documents—uncovered only because of AFL’s relentless efforts over the past three and a half years—expose not only the Biden White House’s involvement in pushing a weaponized DOJ, but also strong dissent from careers within the Department’s Civil Rights Division, who warned that there was no federal authority or legal basis to target these parents in the first place because their speech is protected by the First Amendment.

The photocopies of emails and documents involved were also published on the website.

In one letter obtained by AFL, Kevin Chambers, an aide to the attorney general, wrote to a colleague on Oct. 1, 2021: “We’re aware; the challenge here is finding a federal hook. But WH has been in touch about whether we can assist in some form or fashion.”

Fox News reported that Garland issued a directive on Oct. 4, 2021, that directed the FBI to assist local law enforcement partners with a “disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence” against school administrators.

Garland told a congressional hearing soon thereafter that he had given the directive after the National School Board Association (NSBA) sent a letter to the White House that had asked the Biden administration to investigate parents displaying threatening behavior at school board meetings as possible “domestic terrorists,” the news network reported.

The NSBA later retracted the request.

Career DOJ lawyers were concerned about any legal effort to take action on that letter, documents show.

One DOJ attorney wrote to colleagues in an email on October 3, 2021:

I read the letter from NSBA, and looked at the links for a handful of footnotes, and it appears to me that the vast, vast majority of the behavior cited cannot be reached by federal law. I only saw three stories that involved what sounded like a possible “true threat” … Almost all the language used is protected by the First Amendment; the main issue seems seems to be the disruption and obstruction of school board meetings, which can be reached by local trespassing laws or disturbance of the peace laws, but nothing remotely federal. So it seems we are ramping up an awful lot of federal manpower for what is currently non-federal conduct.

As Breitbart News reported in 2022, two Republican congressmen said that a whistleblower alleged that the FBI launched dozens of investigations into parents after Garland directed the agency to do so.

Gene Hamilton, America First Legal president, said:

The Biden Administration appears to have engaged in a conspiracy that was ultimately aimed at depriving parents of two fundamental rights—the right to speak, and the right to direct the upbringing of their children. They did so with political intentions, most immediately by attempting to influence the Virginia gubernatorial election, and to more broadly chill dissent across the United States.

Some of the most publicized school board protests were in Virginia.

Fox News’s reporting on the released documents also cited Garland’s frequent response when asked by lawmakers — that his DOJ always worked independently of the White House on high-profile legal matters.

The new emails about the school board letter contradict that message, the news outlet pointed out.

Analysis: Biden Unaware of Executive Orders ‘Signed’ by Autopen

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

President Joe Biden issued 162 executive orders over the course of his Oval Office tenure, but according to a new report, most of them were signed by “autopen,” giving rise to concerns that unelected White House staffers may have had more say in shaping policy than the president. The report is furthering those concerns and suggesting that Biden may not have even been aware of the existence of the orders being signed in his name.

The American energy advocacy group Power the Future published the report Wednesday, examining eight Biden-era executive orders on climate change and U.S. energy policy, and found “no evidence” that Biden ever spoke about or acknowledged the existence of any of these orders. “Not in a press conference. Not in a speech. Not even a video statement,” Power the Future’s report stated. Power the Future Executive Director Daniel Turner said in a statement, “Americans deserve to know which unelected staffers or radical unnamed activists implemented sweeping change through an autopen. The Biden energy agenda destroyed the livelihoods of energy workers and fueled the record-high inflation that broke the budgets of millions of Americans.” He asked, “The question is simple, and deserves an immediate answer: what did Joe Biden know, and when did he know it?”

According to the Oversight Project, dedicated to government accountability, practically every order signed by Biden was signed via autopen, with the exception of his announcement withdrawing from the 2024 presidential election. The Oversight Project cited House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who questioned Biden on an executive order affecting liquefied natural gas (LNG) and reported that the president didn’t remember signing the order. “He looks at me, stunned, and he said, ‘I didn’t do that,’” Johnson recounted. He continued, “And I said to him, ‘Mr. President, yes you did, it was an executive order, like, you know, three weeks ago.’ And he goes, ‘No, I didn’t do that.’ … It occurred to me … he was not lying to me. He genuinely did not know what he had signed.”

“For investigators to determine whether then-President Biden actually ordered the signature of relevant legal documents, or if he even had the mental capacity to, they must first determine who controlled the autopen and what checks there were in place,” the Oversight Project wrote in a social media post. The accountability organization continued, “Given President Biden’s decision to revoke Executive Privilege for individuals advising Trump during his first Presidency, this is a knowable fact that can be determined with the correct legal process…”

The “autopen” has been the subject of significant controversy in recent years due to Biden’s excessive use of the technology. Devices have been around for centuries, allowing individuals to replicate their signature or sign multiple documents at once. Thomas Jefferson, for example, kept an early prototype, then called a “polygraph,” in the White House and another in his residence at Monticello. The device allowed a user to sign multiple documents at once but did require the signer to be present and to actively use the machine.

In the late 1930s, an automated version of the machine was developed, called the “autopen,” which would store a template of a signature that could be reproduced without the presence of the actual signer. The autopen became commercially available in the early 1940s and was quickly purchased by politicians, government officials, celebrities, and others. The first U.S. president to use an autopen was reportedly Harry Truman, although he only used the device to sign checks and answer mail. Likewise, most other presidents — such as John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, or Gerald Ford — who used an autopen relegated their use of the instrument to signing checks, correspondence, and autographs.

George W. Bush considered using the autopen to sign executive orders and legislation and even got the Department of Justice’s (DOJ’s) approval to do so, but still insisted on signing such documents himself, flying to Washington, D.C. to sign emergency legislation in 2005, for example. Barack Obama was the first president to use the autopen to sign legislation, giving his approval to sign Patriot Act extensions via autopen while he was visiting France in 2011, the National Defense Authorization Act while vacationing in Hawaii in 2012, and fiscal legislation in 2013.

President Donald Trump has openly refused to use autopen signatures for executive orders and other legal documents. “We may use it, as an example, to send some young person a letter because it’s nice,” Trump told reporters in March. Contrasting his limited use of the autopen against Biden’s much broader use, Trump added, “But to sign pardons and all of the things that he signed with an autopen is disgraceful.” Trump has also suggested that pardons — and, potentially, executive orders — signed by the Biden administration via autopen may be legally “void” if the president didn’t know what he was signing or didn’t authorize its signature.

The Washington Stand asked the DOJ about potential investigations and, if applicable, prosecutions of the Biden administration’s autopen use and was told, “No comment here.”

DOD Announces Investigation of Biden Admin.’s Deadly Afghanistan Withdrawal

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Nearly four years ago, then-President Joe Biden withdrew U.S. military forces from Afghanistan in a disastrous, ill-planned maneuver that cost the lives of 13 U.S. servicemembers and 170 civilians. Now, President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth are launching an investigation to determine how the withdrawal was botched.

In a Monday Department of Defense (DOD) memo shared with The Washington Stand, Hegseth wrote, “President Trump and I have formally pledged full transparency for what transpired during our military withdrawal from Afghanistan. The Department of Defense has an obligation, both to the American people and to the warfighters who sacrificed their youth in Afghanistan, to get to the facts.”

“This remains an important step toward regaining faith and trust with the American people and all those who wear the uniform and is prudent based on the number of casualties and equipment lost during the execution of this withdrawal operation,” Hegseth continued. He noted that the DOD has been conducting a months-long review of “this catastrophic event in our military’s history,” beginning shortly after Trump’s return to the White House. However, in order “to ensure that accountability for this event is met and that the complete picture is provided to the American people,” the DOD will establish a “Special Review Panel” to examine previous reviews, sources, witnesses, transcripts, and factual findings and “analyze the decision making that led to one of America’s darkest and deadliest international moments.” Hegseth pledged, “This team will ensure ACCOUNTABILITY to the American people and the warfighters of our great Nation.”

The DOD informed The Washington Stand that the panel will be led by Afghanistan War military veteran and senior DOD official and advisor Sean Parnell, along with Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller, an outspoken critic of the Biden administration’s management of the withdrawal, and investigative reporter and author Jerry Dunleavy. Previously, Dunleavy played a key role in helping the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee conduct its own investigation and compile its own report on the withdrawal.

In comments to TWS, former House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Texas), who oversaw the compilation and publication of the report, recounted, “The Biden administration’s catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan ceded the country to the Taliban, abandoned our allies, and resulted in the deaths of 13 brave American servicemembers.” He stated, “This was a failure of epic proportions, yet President Biden and his Democratic allies in Congress tried to sweep it all under the rug.” The congressman continued, “I’m glad to see the Trump administration putting rightful focus on the impacts of this debacle — as the Foreign Affairs Committee did under my chairmanship — and working to improve accountability, transparency, and procedures to ensure this never happens again. The American people, our Afghan allies, and our Gold Star families deserve nothing less.”

The House Foreign Affairs Committee’s report, published in September, was the result of months of extensive investigations and hearings. The report concluded that the Biden administration “was determined to withdraw from Afghanistan … no matter the cost.” The administration therefore “ignored” the provisions of the Doha Agreement, a 2020 treaty between the U.S. and the Taliban establishing the terms for a phased U.S. withdrawal, as well as the “pleas of the Afghan government, and the objections by our NATO allies, deciding to unilaterally withdraw from the country.”

The Biden administration also “prioritized the optics of the withdrawal over the security of U.S. personnel on the ground,” subsequently failing “to plan for all contingencies, including a noncombatant evacuation operation (NEO) and refused to order a NEO until after the Taliban had already entered Kabul.” That failure to initiate an NEO in time resulted in jeopardizing the lives of numerous DOD and State Department personnel in Kabul and the deaths of 13 U.S. servicemembers, as well as at least 45 others who were wounded.

According to the report, Biden administration personnel and officials, especially members of the National Security Council and then-National Security Advisor (NSA) Jake Sullivan, actively lied to the American public about the withdrawal and the circumstances surrounding it. In some cases, DOD personnel under the Biden administration’s command also destroyed hard drives and laptops, an act the report referred to as “inexcusable errors.” The report added, “As evidenced by this investigation, record collection and preservation are key to ensuring another such catastrophe does not occur again and preventing the loss of American life.”

“In the aftermath of the withdrawal, U.S. national security was degraded as Afghanistan once again became a haven for terrorists, including al Qaeda and ISISK,” the report stated. It continued, “America’s credibility on the world stage was severely damaged after we abandoned Afghan allies to Taliban reprisal killings — the people of Afghanistan we had promised to protect. And the moral injury to America’s veterans and those still serving remains a stain on this administration’s legacy.”

“Beyond the impact the decision to withdraw from Afghanistan and abandon our allies for 20 years,” Foundation for Defense of Democracies’ Bill Roggio tells The Washington Stand, “the Department of Defense should investigate what its prior leadership knew about the security situation at the time, Al Qaeda’s presence in the country, and how terror groups would thrive after the inevitable collapse of the Afghan government.

“Al Qaeda was closely allied with the Taliban at the time of the withdrawal,” he continued, “and fought alongside the Taliban to conquer the country. Today, Al Qaeda has significant infrastructure in the country, including terror training camps in 13 provinces, safe houses, religious schools, and a weapons storage depot. The infrastructure didn’t materialize out of thin air; it was the result of years of a close alliance forged in blood and sacrifice. The Taliban has paid its debt to Al Qaeda, and the world is far less safe today because of it.”

Trump has repeatedly and openly castigated the Biden administration’s handling of the withdrawal. When Kabul was taken by the Taliban in August 2021, Trump called on Biden to “resign in disgrace for what he has allowed to happen to Afghanistan,” adding that the botched withdrawal “will go down as one of the greatest defeats in American history!”

On the three-year anniversary of the Abbey Gate bombing in Kabul that claimed the lives of the 13 U.S. servicemembers, Trump referred to the withdrawal as “the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country…” While Biden and his deputy, then-Vice President Kamala Harris, criticized Trump for appearing at an Arlington National Cemetery event commemorating the fallen soldiers, the families of those soldiers defended Trump’s presence and lambasted Biden and Harris for their mismanagement of the troop withdrawal.

Trump Suggests Biden Diagnosis Could Be Part Of Bigger Conspiracy

/in , , , , , , , /by

President Donald Trump suggested on Monday that there may be a larger conspiracy at work following former President Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis. 

Trump addressed Biden’s stage four prostate cancer diagnosis while in the Oval Office, calling the situation “very sad.” The president added that people should look into how Biden’s cancer developed into a dangerous situation with no earlier detection.

“If it’s the same doctor who said there was nothing wrong there, that’s being proven to be a sad situation,” Trump told reporters. “In other words, there are things going on that the public wasn’t informed. And I think somebody is going to have to speak to his doctor, if it’s the same or even if it’s two separate doctors. Why wasn’t the cognitive ability — why wasn’t that discussed? I think the doctors said he’s just fine, and it’s turned out that’s not so. It’s very dangerous. Look, this is no longer politically correct. This is dangerous for our country.”

Biden’s team announced Sunday that the former president had been diagnosed with an “aggressive” cancer, which has spread to his bones. Since, many doctors have come forward to express concern about how the cancer was caught so late.

Doctors and cancer experts told the Daily Caller that Biden likely had cancer while he was in the White House. Such a type of cancer, the metastasization from prostate cancer spreading to the bones, typically takes at least five years, experts told the Caller.

“It’s not credible that we are hearing of his metastatic disease for the first time because he was having difficulty urinating and they found it. That just doesn’t track,” Dr. Steven Quay, a physician, scientist and member of the American Association for Cancer Research, told the Caller.

Trump raised similar concerns in the Oval Office on Monday.

“The other thing is, you have to say, why did it take so long when you — this takes a long time. It can take years to get to this level of danger. So it’s a — look, it’s a very, very sad situation, and I feel very badly about it, and I think people should try and find out what happened,” Trump said.

IG Reports Give Fuller Accounting of Biden Military Lowlights

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

“The sins of some people are conspicuous, going before them to judgment, but the sins of others appear later” (1 Timothy 5:24). This principle of biblical wisdom is just as valid in politics. Not every fault is instantly known and judged; others only “appear later” — but, rest assured, they “cannot remain hidden” (1 Timothy 5:25). In November 2024, voters knew enough about President Biden’s failure to reject his party’s successor, but the full accounting of Biden’s blunders will only come to light with time.

That accounting has now begun. Congressional committees and inspectors general had already begun investigations into the most egregious failings of the previous administration, but stonewalling tactics threw sand in the gears. As the Trump administration feels no compunction about exposing the missteps of its predecessor, those investigations will now move forward much more smoothly.

Gaza Pier

One such accounting concerns the infamous floating pier that Biden ordered the U.S. military to assemble along the coast of Gaza. The whole exercise was political — a subtle dig at Israel for insisting on screening aid that entered Gaza overland, a transparent concession to the pro-Hamas rabble that Biden sought to placate, and a stubborn refusal to acknowledge that Hamas would promptly loot aid humanitarian aid that arrived in Gaza (even off the pier!)

Operation Neptune Solace, as the pier project was dubbed, required the labor of 1,000 U.S. servicemembers over several months, as well as $320 million in equipment, yet it disintegrated almost instantly. As it turns out the pier was not designed to withstand even a “gentle breeze,” which is average weather on the Gaza coast. After only 20 days of partial operation, including multiple repairs, the pier operation was abandoned.

Of course, the Biden administration tried to spin this not as a total failure, but as a partial success. The pier did deliver some aid — about a third of the aid it hoped to land — and the operation’s total casualties amounted to three soldiers with non-combat injuries, the Pentagon said.

According a new report released this month by the DOD Inspector General (IG), this casualty estimate was just plain wrong. “In response to our request and a review of records, USCENTCOM reported that 62 U.S. personnel suffered injuries during Operation Neptune Solace,” the report stated. “Based on the information provided, we were not able to determine which of these 62 injuries occurred during the performance of duties or resulted off duty or from pre-existing medical conditions.” One soldier, who was medevacked from the pier in May with critical injuries, died in October.

The loss in material was also substantial. “The Navy reported damage to 27 watercraft and INLS equipment pieces totaling approximately $31 million,” the IG recorded, while the Army’s total damage report was classified. Much of the damage was due to equipment that was punctured or bent after colliding in the rolling seas; the Army and Navy’s separate equipment was never designed to be used together. But what do 60 soldiers and $30 million matter in pursuit of political brownie points?

The Biden Pentagon could keep the Gaza pier’s devastating toll under wraps for a while, but the true impact did “appear later.”

Afghanistan Equipment

Only days earlier, another inspector general report slammed another critical failure of the Biden administration. In an ill-advised decision to withdraw from Afghanistan by a pre-determined, arbitrary deadline, President Biden ordered American forces to evacuate the country in haste, leaving behind equipment, allies, and even American citizens. More specifically, the U.S. left behind 78 aircraft, 40,000 military vehicles, and over 300,000 weapons.

Even worse, Biden’s hasty retreat kneecapped the friendly, democratic government of Afghanistan, causing it to collapse rapidly before an advancing Taliban, the very group America defenestrated from power more than two decades earlier. Even worse, it now appears that the Taliban has reverted to its old ways, allowing more than two dozen terrorist organizations to train on its soil, including at least four offshoots of al-Qaeda.

In an April 30 report, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) succinctly compiled this information as follows:

“A February UN sanctions monitoring team report said that al Qaeda affiliates in Afghanistan … ‘continued to have access to weapons seized from the former Afghan National Army, transferred to them by the de facto authorities/Taliban or purchased from the black market.’ The Taliban army chief of staff said the regime planned to provide the army with more advanced weapons and equipment, but did not specify from where or whom it could come. In 2022, the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) reported that out of $18.6 billion worth of equipment that was transferred to the ANDSF between 2005 and August 2021, $7.12 billion remained in Afghanistan.”

From this summary, it’s not hard to infer that Biden’s disastrous withdrawal left high-tech American military equipment to the very terrorist organizations that we entered Afghanistan to destroy more than two decades ago.

Some of this came to light during the Biden administration — but it only came to light piecemeal and gradually, despite the administration’s refusal to accept (or assign) responsibility.

Conclusion

These are not the first reports exposing previous governmental misdeeds, nor will they be last. Congress this week also exposed the FBI’s deceptive mishandling of the 2017 assassination attempt of Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.) and other Republican lawmakers. Last month, the DOJ “Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias” assembled the first tranche of grievances to be redressed.

The point is, grievous mistakes have a way of becoming known eventually. Sin can only hide in the shadows for so long. It is therefore wise to take the advice of Proverbs, “Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy” (Proverbs 28:13).

American governments would be well served to frankly own up to their own shortcomings. Attempts to cover up the truth only lead to more political fallout in the long run. As Moses once warned a faction of Israelites who sought to avoid accountability, “be sure your sin will find you out” (Numbers 32:23).

GOP Introduces Transparency Bill After Uncovering Millions Of Secret Spending On China

/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

We shouldn’t need such bills but the wealth, our wealth, that has been transferred to America’s worst adversaries is galling. It is especially galling today, tax day, when tens of millions of Americans are forced to turn over obscenely high tax checks of our hard earned money to the government. No wonder why China calls us peasants. More like serfs.

Ernst told The Federalist she believes ‘Americans should never send a cent to China,’ but ‘you cannot stop what you cannot see.’

Republicans Debut Transparency Bill After Uncovering Millions Of Secret Spending On China

By: Jordan Boyd, The Federalist, April 15, 2025:

The Biden administration funneled $18 million in U.S. tax dollars — approximately $4 million of which Republican Sen. Joni Ernst’s staff found buried or absent from the federal government’s funding database — to causes in Communist China.

The majority of the payments were funneled through the U.S. Departments of State and Health and Human Services to various Chinese entities and China-based projects for diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility trainings (including some at the U.S. consulate), “art billboards,” a bicycle parking cover, pro-LGBT events, various climate change initiatives, and rat research and reported on USAspending.gov.

Buried in that federal spending database, however, is more of Americans’ hard-earned money that the National Institutes of Health handed to at least one Chinese university.

In one example, the NIH grant database and USAspending.gov show Peking University in Beijing raked in approximately $4.8 million in U.S. tax dollars from 2021 to 2024. A cursory search shows that the only project grant Peking University received U.S. funding for between 2021 and 2024 was a “China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study.” Ernst’s office, however, uncovered another $1.08 million to Peking researchers concealed as a subaward under a grant to the University of Southern California for sensors designed to provide imaging of “neuromodulators” that “regulate addiction attention, cognition, mood, memory, motivation, sleep and more through their influence on brain circuits.” The subaward’s purpose and amount are not associated with the university’s profile on USAspending.gov.

An April 2023 Government Accountability Office audit confirmed that projects and programs in China often receive American funding through subawards but noted the “full extent of these subawards is unknown because of limitations in the completeness and accuracy of subaward data reported in government systems.”

“Limitations in subaward data is a government-wide issue and not unique to U.S. funding to entities in China,” the report added.

This isn’t the first time NIH handed taxpayer dollars to China. The Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), the lab believed to be the origin of the Covid-19 pandemic, covertly received $1.4 million in taxpayer funds to study coronaviruses, routed in part through the U.S Agency for International Development (USAID) and EcoHealth Alliance via subawards. The deliberate attempt to avoid the funding reporting requirements mandated by U.S. law earned both WIV and EcoHealth Alliance suspension and disbarment, which made them ineligible for future subsidization.

While the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) made an effort to rein in the flow of federal funds to China, Ernst and Chairwoman of House Republican Leadership Elise Stefanik want to take the waste and fraud prevention further by introducing the Tracking Receipts to Adversarial Countries for Knowledge of Spending (TRACKS) Act: a bill that would ensure U.S. spending on foreign adversaries like China is publicly available to scrutinize and potentially cease.

Biden’s HHS Left Taxpayers on the Hook for $22.6 BILLION for Giveaways to Illegals for Cars, Homes, Startup Businesses

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

You don’t hate them enough. More evidence of why the Democrats has been so defensive about DOGE and Mr. Musk exposing the enormous reckless and corrupt spending.

HHS splurged more than $22B on grants for migrants — including cash for cars, home loans and startups

By Josh Christenson, NY Post, Feb. 13, 2025:

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) ramped up grants for migrants from 2020 to 2024 — which included cash assistance to buy cars, homes and even build credit for startup businesses, according to a shocking watchdog report that found taxpayers were left on the hook for $22.6 billion.

HHS’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) — which came under fire last year for having lost track of 32,000 migrant kids in the US — handed out the high sum to a host of nonprofits, effectively acting as a “giant magnet” for those crossing the US border and claiming asylum, auditors from the money monitor OpenTheBooks revealed exclusively to The Post.

Tasked with settling migrants, asylum seekers and other refugees in America, ORR drastically increased the number of noncitizens eligible to receive funding over the bulk of President Joe Biden’s term, with more than $10 billion shelled out to grant-receiving organizations just in fiscal year 2023.

That coincided with all-time records being set for southern border crossings into the US, with 2.4 million apprehensions by Customs and Border Protection over the same period.

Non-governmental groups bilked taxpayers for up to $1.7 billion in services including dollar-for-dollar matching savings plans for cars, homes, college educations or startups; small-business loans of up to $15,000; loans to repair credit history of up to $1,500; “cultural orientation,” “emergency housing support,” legal assistance and Medicaid care.

Some programs were only available to migrants or refugees who had been living in the US for several years, who were employed or who were making around double the federal poverty level or less, among other stipulations.

The most funding, however, was spent on unaccompanied migrant children, with $12.4 billion obligated over the five years — even as federal whistleblowers were calling out ORR for placing many of the 291,000 kids in their care with unvetted and at times abusive sponsors.

“The Shining City on a Hill, with its walls and doors, makes room for legal immigrants and legitimate refugees and asylum seekers, but the ORR has made a mockery of that vision in recent years,” OpenTheBooks CEO John Hart told The Post.

“ORR is part of a troubling trend of using nonprofit groups as ideological proxies. Vast sums are being outsourced to evade accountability and prop up an immoral, exploitive system that is hurtful to both American citizens and people in other countries who are longing for a better life.”

Thursday’s report comes after the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) came under fire for sending around $80 million — subsequently clawed back by the Trump administration Tuesday — to put migrants up in New York City hotels and provide other services.

More than $2.6 billion went out the door in fiscal year 2020, $2.3 billion in fiscal year 2021, $3.3 billion in fiscal year 2022, $10 billion in fiscal year 2023 and $4.2 billion in fiscal year 2024.

JOE BIDEN WRAPPED: How Delaware’s Favorite Son Fared During His Final Year In Office

/in , , , , , , , /by

President Joe Biden had an eventful last year in office, from losing track of his Defense Secretary to breaking one last promise and pardoning his son, all while dropping out of the presidential race and saying his final goodbye to the Oval Office.

Biden’s approval rating hit an all-time low, falling to 34% just two weeks before the end of the year. Biden battled low approval ratings before dropping out of the presidential race, but still managed to fight off a special counsel report, make it to the first debate, and overshadow Vice President Kamala Harris’s closing arguments before her loss.

Biden’s 2024 began with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin going MIA as he and the Pentagon forgot to notify the White House about his hospitalization for several days. Austin was hospitalized at Walter Reed Hospital on Jan. 1 and neither his stay, nor his time in the intensive care unit, was reported to the White House. Despite the communication break down, Biden never considered firing Austin, a White House official previously confirmed to the Daily Caller.

Once the Austin scandal died down, ran into Special Counsel Robert Hur. Hur declined to pursue criminal charges against the president, despite finding that Biden willfully retained classified documents, because a jury might see Biden as “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”

Hur noted in his report that during their five hour interview, he forgot when his term as vice president began and ended and when his son Beau had died. The president held an angry press conference responding to the report and blaming his staff for the handling of the classified documents.

“How bad is your memory?” Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked the president.

“My memory is so bad I let you speak,” Biden snapped. “My memory is fine. Take a look at what I’ve done since I’ve become president.”

Whatever chance the White House had of dispelling concerns about Biden’s fitness evaporated when he took the debate stage. Facing off against now-President-elect Donald Trump, Biden mumbled and stumbled through answers and lit a firestorm amid his party. Suddenly, Biden and his campaign staff were facing calls from within the Democratic party for the president to drop out of the race.

The concerns within the party became too much for the campaign to weather and Biden announced via Twitter, about a month after the debate, that he was calling it quits.

“It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President. And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as president for the remainder of my term,” Biden wrote in a twitter statement. Days later he would show his face for the first time since dropping out and vaguely address the nation about his departure. 

Biden didn’t fade from the spotlight quite yet. As Harris addressed her supporters just feet away from the White House for her closing argument, Biden made sure to steal the attention, calling Trump supporters “garbage.”

While on a get-out-the-vote call, Biden started to discuss a joke made by comic Tony Hinchcliffe during a Trump rally, saying that the only garbage “floating out there is his supporters.” The White House responded to outrage about the president’s remarks by posting a written transcript of his comments, modifying “supporters” to “supporter’s,” falsely claiming that Biden was addressing Hinchcliffe, not Trump voters.

It was later revealed that the White House stenographers put in their official transcript that Biden had said “supporters,” but the press office had decided to release a modified transcript after they “conferred with the president,” according to an email obtained by The Associated Press.

After months of insisting he would not do so, Biden rounded out 2024 by pardoning his son.  A Delaware jury convicted Hunter Biden in June for knowingly possessing a gun while suffering from a drug addiction and making false statements on the purchase document. The president absolved his son of his crimes, arguing that he was targeted by his own Department of Justice because of his identity.

“For my entire career I have followed a simple principle: just tell the American people the truth. They’ll be fair-minded,” the president wrote.

“Here’s the truth: I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice — and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further. I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision.”

Biden Education Department Spent Over $1 Billion on DEI Grants, $489,883,797 for Racist Hiring’s

Biden Education Department spent over $1 billion on DEI grants: report

By: Kristine Parks, FOX News, December 12, 2024:

The U.S. Department of Education spent at least $1 billion on grants advancing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in hiring, programming and mental health training in America’s schools since 2021, according to a new report.

Parents Defending Education “PDE”, a right-leaning organization that pledges to “reclaim our schools from activists imposing harmful agendas,” shared its new report exclusively with Fox News Digital.

Researchers at the organization pored through nearly four years of publicly available data from the Department of Education to determine the number of grants and the dollar amount awarded to students and school districts for grants that had a clear DEI “motive.”

From 2021 to present, they found the Biden administration awarded 229 grants across 42 states and Washington, D.C. that met that criteria.

Is this a joke? Biden Holds ‘profound hope’ Trump will ‘preserve’ his ‘strong economy’

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

President Joe Biden, during one of his last speeches as commander in chief, said it is his wish that President-elect Donald Trump will “build” on his economic success over the last four years. 

BREITBART — Under Biden’s plan of “Bidenomics,” inflation soared, gas prices spiked, credit card debt exploded, and housing costs skyrocketed.

Gallup’s Economic Confidence Index recently marked Biden’s economy as a -35 on a scale of from -100 to +100.

“We have proof the playbook is, at least now, working,” Biden said during remarks about his economic legacy.

“Most economists agree the new administration is going to inherit a fairly strong economy, at least at the moment, an economy going through fundamental transformation has laid out a stronger foundation and sustainable, broad based, highly productive growth,” he continued.

“It is my profound hope that the new administration will preserve and build on this progress,” he claimed.

Biden then alleged Trump might ruin his economy.

“By all accounts the incoming administration is determined to return the country to another round of trickle-down economics … once again causing massive deficits or significant cuts in basic programs,” Biden argued.

“I believe this approach is a major mistake. I believe we’ve proven that approach is a mistake over the past four years,” he said.

Biden will continue to implement Bidenomics until he leaves office.

Obama Threatened Israel With Afghanistan Outcome Warning Bibi That U.S. Policies Were Taking Sharp Turn To the Muslim World and Iran

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

During Netanyahu’s testimony today in his lawfare trial, he brought an example from his time during the Obama admin. He said Obama was adopting the 100% Arab world agenda and rejected 100% of Israel’s agenda. At one point, SOS John Kerry offered Bibi the opportunity to visit Afghanistan “To observe how we (US) trained the Afghan army to be able to stand to the Taliban. Bibi said to him, “This will not work. The Islamists would overrun them, and if it happened to us in Israel, we would be gone”.

We all know how things ended in Afghanistan…Thank G-D for Bibi and his strength in standing up to Obama.

In my 2010 book, The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration’s War, I warned of Obama’s hatred of the Jewish state. Needless to say, the left wing machine of hate and destruction defamed, smeared and libeled me.

Netanyahu reveals: ‘Obama offered me a secret visit to Afghanistan’

During his testimony in court, Prime Minister Netanyahu delved into his rocky relationship with the former US president and revealed that from their first meeting, Obama pressured him to create a Palestinian state.

By: Israel National News, Dec 10, 2024:

In his testimony at his corruption trial on Tuesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed his rocky relationship with former US President Barak Obama and revealed that he was invited for a secret visit to Afghanistan.

Asked about the challenges he faced between the years 2016 and 2017, the Prime Minister claimed that the main challenge was his relationship with then-President Obama: “Already at my first meeting with him in the White House, he explained that US policies were going to take a sharp turn; he appealed to the Muslim world and Iran.”

Netanyahu continued: “Concerning the State of Israel, he (Obama) saw a critical need for us to return, more or less, to the 1967 borders and to create a Palestinian state, and if we did this, he felt everything would be solved. I had to face great pressure to create a Palestinian state. He demanded it during the first meeting, he said: ‘Not even one brick will you build over the Green Line.’ I responded: ‘Half of Jerusalem is over the Green Line; for instance, the Gilo neighborhood.’ Obama said: ‘Gilo too.’ He demanded a total construction freeze, massive pressure. I had to deal with this, I had to deflect it, and it was no small matter.”

The Prime Minister revealed during his testimony: “Obama offered me a secret visit to Afghanistan to see how the American forces train
