President Trump Impromptu Remarks Departing White House – Video


Chopper pressers are the best pressers.  Earlier today President Trump held an impromptu press availability as he departed the White House for a trip to Michigan.  [Video Below Transcript ADDED]

.

[Transcript] – THE PRESIDENT: Hello, everybody. So, we have a lot of good things going. We just had a meeting with Mitch McConnell and the group. And we’re working on a — a package of very positive things. We’re getting some very good numbers. It looks like the numbers are going to be very good into the future. We’re going to be very strong, starting with our transition period, which will be probably June — June, July. I think you’re going to see some very good numbers coming out. And next year is going to be an incredible economic year for this country. One of our best.

Always paying respects to the people that have lost their lives. We always have to remember that: the people that have lost their lives.

Do you have any questions? Please.

Q Mr. President, where are you on funding to Michigan? A lot of people are concerned. They’re flooded out. They said that’s the last thing they need is for a threat to come from the President.

THE PRESIDENT: Well, we’re looking at the floods. We have our people from the Army Corps of Engineers there. We have FEMA there. I spoke with the governor, Governor Whitmer, yesterday, and we have a very good understanding. But we’ve moved our best people into Michigan and our most talented engineers, designers, the people from the Army Corps of Engineers. And they do these things better than probably anyone — anyone in the world.

Q What about the funding, though, that you threatened to take away the federal funding?

THE PRESIDENT: Well, we’ll take a look. No, we’ll take a look. That was unrelated to that.

Q Can you explain why you’re pulling out of the Open Skies Treaty?

THE PRESIDENT: Russia and us have developed a very good relationship. As you know, we worked on the oil problem together. I think we have a very good relationship with Russia. But Russia didn’t adhere to the treaty, so until they adhere, we will pull out. But there’s a very good chance we’ll make a new agreement or do something to put that agreement back together.

But whenever there’s an agreement that another party doesn’t agree to — you know, we have many of those agreements around the world, where it’s a two-party agreement, but they don’t adhere to it and we do. When we have things like that, we pull out also. That’s why, with the arms treaties, if you look at the arms treaties, we’re probably going to make a deal with Russia on arms treaty. And China will be maybe included in that. We’ll see what happens.

But we have a lot of things. But when we have an agreement, when we have a treaty, and the other side doesn’t adhere to it — in many cases, they’re old treaties, old agreements — then we pull out also.

So I think what’s going to happen is we’re going to pull out and they’re going to come back and want to make a deal. We’ve had a very good relationship lately with Russia. And you can see that with respect to oil and what’s happening with oil.

Q What do you think about Michael Cohen getting out of jail today? He’s home now.

THE PRESIDENT: I didn’t know that.

Q He’s home. What do you think about that?

THE PRESIDENT: I didn’t know it. Nope. I didn’t know it.

Q Do you have a reaction?

Q Isn’t that going to increase tensions with Russia, though, right when you want to make things better?

THE PRESIDENT: Say it?

Q Isn’t this withdrawal going to make things be- — worse with Russia? Increase tensions?

THE PRESIDENT: No, I think that we’re going to have a very good relationship with Russia. I think that if you look at what happened with oil, where Russia, Saudi Arabia, and us got together, and we saved in our country millions of energy jobs. And you see oil now is solidifying. So it’s the best of all worlds. We’re saving the energy jobs but our drivers have a very low gasoline price.

Q Are you going to wear a mask today at the Ford plant?

THE PRESIDENT: Well, I don’t know. We’re going to look at it. A lot of people have asked me that question. I want to get our country back to normal. I want to normalize.

One of the other things I want to do is get the churches open. The churches are not being treated with respect by a lot of the Democrat governors. I want to get our churches open. And we’re going to take a very strong position on that very soon.

Q What about mosques, Mr. President? What about mosques? The Muslims are going to be celebrating the end of Ramadan soon. What about mosques?

THE PRESIDENT: Mosques too, yeah. Including mosques.

Q Do you have any messages for —

THE PRESIDENT: Including mosques.

Q Do you have any messages for the Muslims who will be celebrating the end of Ramadan?

THE PRESIDENT: Yes, I wish them well — very well.

Go ahead.

Q Can you talk about the AstraZeneca award? A billion dollars for 400 million doses of a potential new vaccine. How confident are you that one will be ready by the fall?

THE PRESIDENT: Well, I think we have a lot of — you have AstraZeneca, which is a great company, and you have others, Johnson & Johnson. We have a lot of things happening on the vaccine front, on the therapeutic front. If you look at therapeutically, we’re doing great. And on the cure front — which is the next step — I think we have tremendous things. That announcement, I heard, came out this morning. That’s a very positive announcement in addition to all of the other announcements.

We are so far ahead of where people thought we’d be. But therapeutically, it’s very interesting what’s going on — and cure. So you’re going to have a lot big announcements over the next week or two.

Q Sir, you said the funding to Michigan was another issue not related to the flood. Can you just assure people that are concerned you’re going to hold funding?

THE PRESIDENT: Well, we’re helping Michigan with their flood, and we have the people to do it.

Q But what about the funding though? You said federal funding for the mail-in voting.

THE PRESIDENT: We don’t want them to do mail-in ballots because it’s going to lead to total election fraud. So we don’t want them to do mail-in ballots. We don’t want anyone to do mail-in ballots.

Now, if somebody has to mail it in because they’re sick or, by the way, because they live in the White House and they have to vote in Florida and they won’t be in Florida — if there’s a reason for it, that’s okay. If there’s a reason. But if there’s not — we don’t want — we don’t to take any chances with fraud in our elections.

Q The Chinese Parliament is poised to pass a national security law cracking down on Hong Kong. Are you aware of this? What’s your reaction?

THE PRESIDENT: I don’t know what it is because nobody knows yet. If it happens, we’ll address that issue very strongly.

Q What about your plan for G7, Mr. President?

THE PRESIDENT: So it looks like G7 may be on because we’ve done well. We’re ahead of schedule in terms of our country, and some of the other countries are doing very well. It looks like G7 will be on. A full G7. And we’ll be announcing something probably early next week.

Q Will it be June 10th? And how many world leaders have agreed?

THE PRESIDENT: I can’t hear you. You have your mask on. I can’t hear a word you’re —

Q How many world leaders have agreed to your June 10th plan?

THE PRESIDENT: We’ll be talking to you about it.

Q Sir, how long do you expect take hydroxychloroquine?

THE PRESIDENT: I think it’s another day. I had a two-week regimen of hydroxychloroquine. And I’ve taken it, I think, just about two weeks. I think it’s another day. And I’m still here. I’m still here. And I tested very positively in a — in another sense.

So, this morning —

Q Negatively?

THE PRESIDENT: Yeah. I tested positively toward negative, right? So, no, I tested perfectly this morning, meaning — meaning I tested negative.

Q Have you taken the antibody test yet?

THE PRESIDENT: But that’s a way of saying it: positively toward the negative.

Q Have you taken the antibody test yet, sir?

THE PRESIDENT: No, I have not.

Q Columbia University put out a report in The New York Times today. It said 36,000 people would’ve been saved if you guys did social distancing measures just one week earlier. Do you believe that? What’s your reaction to that?

THE PRESIDENT: I was so early. I was earlier than anybody thought. I put a ban on people coming in from China. Everybody fought me on that. They didn’t want it. Nancy Pelosi, a month later, was dancing in the streets of San Francisco in Chinatown so that people wouldn’t believe what’s happening. And I don’t even blame that. But I was way early.

Columbia is an institution that’s very liberal. It’s a — I think it’s a just a political hit job, if you want to know the truth.

Q So, do you want to have the G7 here at the White House or Camp David or what?

THE PRESIDENT: We’re going to have it probably at the White House and maybe a little combination at Camp David. But primarily at the White House. So if we do the G7, when that all comes together, probably it will be in D.C., at the White House. Okay? But there could be a piece of it at Camp David, which is nearby.

Q Are you taking antibody plasma?

Q Back on Open Skies, have you talked to any allies —

THE PRESIDENT: Yeah.

Q — about this?

THE PRESIDENT: So, again, our relationship with Russia has improved greatly, especially since the Russian hoax happened — has been proven totally false and illegal what they did. They — this was an illegal hoax and they got caught. They got caught doing a lot of bad things. So let’s see how that turns out.

But our relationship with Russia has come a long way in the last few months. I think that the Open Sky will all work out. But right now, when you have an agreement, and the other side doesn’t adhere to the agreement, we’re not going to adhere to it either. But I think something very positive will work out.

Q Are you going to go to the launch on Wednesday in Florida?

THE PRESIDENT: What?

Q The launch — the rocket launch on Wednesday in Florida?

THE PRESIDENT: I’m thinking about going. That’ll be next week to the rocket launch. I hope you’re all going to join me. I’d like to put you on the rocket, get rid of you for a while. (Laughter.)

Okay. Thank you very much. Thank you, Steve.

An Artist Looks At Joe Biden


Without the concerted efforts of a revitalized “Christian Conservatism” and the help of the real God in Heaven, this 2020 battle is over–and lost—before it starts

Re-posted from the Canada Free Press By  —— Bio and ArchivesMay 20, 2020

Joe Biden

Back in Bible days, when people were freaked out and wished to express shock (and, most often, indignation) at wrong things that were being done—things that went against the grain with God (what was then considered simply going against common sense)—the following behavioral ‘formula’ was how men of God made certain that their emotions and resolve were not hidden from the careless dummies around them. Here is just one of many examples found in Scripture. This is probably my favorite …

“When I heard this (stupid and/or blasphemous thing), I tore my tunic and cloak, pulled hair from my head and beard and sat down appalled” (Ezra 9:3 NIV). And the preceding debasing ritual was often followed by the donning of filthy rags (‘sackcloth’) for one’s clothing, and sprinkling ashes atop one’s head in an attempt to show even greater shame and humiliation.

‘Touchy-Feely’ Joe

In my heart, this is exactly where I find myself today as I write these words. I am in shock. I am in disbelief. I am incredulous. I am nauseated, [”… and my soul has been psychedelicized.” (Chambers Brothers, “Time Has Come Today” 1966).] Suffice it to say that this day everything is sufficiently crazy enough for me. I will begin to explain a little. Hope you will follow along.

Yesterday, on a huge and very popular social networking site, I saw a news piece featuring an awe-inspiring, absolutely riveting photograph of Joe Biden. Beneath that portrait of ‘Obiden’ was the announcement that national polls were suggesting that he had taken over Trump in a strong lead for the presidency in 2020. None of that headline really shocked me. After all, the source was naturally the lying-est former ‘news network’ of all the ‘big six’ liberal news media outlets out there. At any rate, they were—as they most usually do—brutally wresting reality into more momentum for their favored candidate, ‘touchy-feely’ Joe. Their declaring Joe the big leader was no surprise at all.

Besides writing articles like this, I am also a professional portrait artist—and not a bad one, if I do say so myself. I bring that up because a person’s face says everything to me. As I have said through the years in several interviews regarding my artwork, “The face is the body’s bottomless organ of expression. The face shows me what is going on inside a person’s heart.” And, “When I am doing a portrait of anyone, the painting or drawing is never done when the face ‘looks’ right. The piece is done when that face ‘FEELS’ right”—matching the heart and personality I have sensed in my meetings with those subjects.

The emerging communist Amerika

[One time, on one certain project, my client came in to pick up her family’s large and beautiful (I am humble as well.) painting. In that project I had done the senior couple (in their 70s). I had also painted their eight (four boys and four daughters-in-law) married children (in their late 30s – early 40s). And over a dozen grandchildren, youngsters of all ages, which filled up the houses of those families. I had painted all of the people casually standing and seated around my commissioner’s huge old, beautiful barn located on her high mountain ranch. As she was preparing to leave my studio with her treasure, I stopped her and asked, “What is wrong with this person, right here?” I pointed at one of the faces of the smiling crowd of children/grandchildren, and looked at her for an answer.

The woman’s eyes filled with tears and she asked, “What exactly do you mean?”  I told her, “I don’t really know. It’s just that every time I had to work on this face, my heart was breaking for that person.” My client sat down and began to weep. She began to explain her response. “That sweet person has some really deep psychological and spiritual problems, David. Currently and much of the time spent growing up, that dear one has never been too far away from committing suicide.” After that revealing exchange, we had some coffee, said some prayers, and she took her painting and went home. I have had similar experiences with a few of my clientele. It never fails. So why do I bring all that up? It is because I am offering you a bit of my qualifying credential as a judge of character.]

Since our 45th president has been in office, the rotten left—I can no longer dignify them by calling them ‘democrats’—has cast every sort of accusation and aspersion on the man, in an attempt to try to ruin his relationship with this great nation as well as furthering their ongoing efforts at demoralizing and undermining him personally. On occasion psychologists and psychiatrists have even been hired to down-judge President Trump simply through a supposed analysis of his various facial expressions and/or body language. It has been a shameless shuck, the way the emerging communist Amerika has gone after the best leader our nation has seen since Ronald Reagan (or maybe even Abraham Lincoln). I know that a lot of my liberal readers are right now entertained by my high marks for our president. And that is not because of much of anything else than the ridiculously insulting and critical picture the liberal media so constantly paints of him.

Joe’s lame attempt at looking like a man of integrity

Nevertheless, when I saw the almost reverend image of the reprobate Joe Biden, gracing that article yesterday, I truly wanted to rip at my hair, pluck my beard, rend my T-shirt, and dump ashes on my head. All my conservative Christian friends, most of them anyway, were busy posting recipes and jokes on their pages, respectively. And not one opposing comment had been registered – IN TWO DAYS – in response to ‘touchy-feely’ Joe’s lame attempt at looking like a man of integrity. And that is when everything began caving in, concerning my respect for the dummies around me who call themselves “Christian conservatives”.

I suddenly remembered that back in 2016, when I read the proud testimonies of the ‘Christian conservative’ morons who had actually voted for Hillary or had written in other preferences because their delicate sensitivities had prevented them from voting for “… that brash and rough mouthed Trump!” it was every bit as disgusting as the bumper stickers we had to stare at after Clinton was elected in 1992: “DON’T BLAME ME! I VOTED FOR ROSS!”

I remember listening to the story of the father, Charles Woods, who met his son Tyrone’s body – IN AN ALUMINUM BOX COMING HOME FROM BENGHAZI. Woods was standing there, silently hurting, when the stupid and classless Joe Biden came fumbling up behind him and asked, “Did your son always have balls the size of cue balls?’’ Of course a liberal leaning Snopes rushes in to clean up as much damage as they can by labeling that story “UNDETERMINED”. But I saw Mr. Woods’ narrative in one of his interviews in a news clip. And that outraged father didn’t pause a moment in confirming numbskull Biden’s rude and disrespectful comment about his precious baby boy. That’s what made me even more amazed when the penetrating Joe Biden took issue with a reporter asking him (’ in front of God and everybody’) about Obiden’s son, Hunter’s problem with a young lady he apparently had impregnated and then purportedly abandoned. If memory serves – and it usually does – touchy-feely Joe told the inquiring journalist that he had no class in so heartlessly mentioning any of that at Joey’s precious little press conference. What a maroon. What an ultra-maroon.

When Biden is accused, Biden simply gets angry for being put on the spot

But here we are in an ugly 21st century. And right now the best a rotten DNC can offer a struggling America is what appears to be an anti-charismatic alleged pedophile who often doesn’t display enough mentality to power an autonomic nervous system. Joe Biden has given us volumes of the video showing him repeatedly violating personal spaces in the molestation and sniffing of innocent little girls – WHO VERY OBVIOUSLY DO NOT ENJOY HIS WANDERING FINGERS! And self-appointed kings and queens of morality—Pelosi, Clinton, Schiff, Schumer, etc., etc.—are currently lauding the man as a model of golden character.

Nancy Pelosi is obviously losing her mind. She said that president Trump is ‘morbidly obese.’ That statement in itself seriously calls into question Nancy’s powers of perception. Has she looked in a mirror lately? Because, again, as a portrait artist, Nancy looks morbidly ugly to me. I only mention that because her nonstop heartlessness has earned her the same sort of treatment coming back at her. She says she has no problem believing Joe’s denial of his alleged sexual abuse of Tara Reade. But she could not scream loud enough in attempting to ruin the life and career of one of our finest (our newest) Supreme Court Justices.

I saw the clip of Joe Biden’s kid-gloved interview on MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe’, after he had been accused by Reade of sexual assault. I had to commend the first interviewer, ‘Mika’, who at times appeared to be holding Biden’s feet to the fire. She was trying to get Biden to at least admit the close comparisons of his most recent accuser’s insistence—that he sexually molested Tara Reade—to the accusations leveled toward Brett Kavanaugh by a completely different female accuser. Biden’s response was comedic. He visibly kept getting angry at Mika, huffing and sputtering as she was merely repeating Reade’s accusations. It got worse as Mika tried to understandably draw a comparison between where this was going with Biden and where it absolutely had gone in the merciless and fiery grilling that self-righteous Democrats gave Justice Kavanaugh.

It was interesting to note that while Justice Kavanaugh was tormented and vilified by democrats about an event that allegedly occurred while he was in high school, and about which no complaint was ever filed, Joe Biden is merely being questioned about an event that allegedly (I have to be fair here) occurred while he was a United States Senator and a fully mature man. The Biden incident was allegedly reported. Interestingly, had the allegations been true, and had Kavanaugh actually been charged with what was alleged, he would have been a minor, charged in juvenile court, and his record would have been sealed. With Biden the result would have been far different. But bottom line—when Kavanaugh was accused, Kavanaugh looked to bring forth evidence to vindicate himself. When Biden is accused, Biden simply gets angry for being put on the spot.

When I see Joe Biden’s posing to look like a saint, I see the insincerity of the devil himself.

But seriously, Americans: will you sit by this time, as you did during midterm elections and further allow our great nation to vaporize? Donald Trump needs our help like never before. America needs our help like never before. Will you rise to the occasion, and get Donald Trump safely past the devilish goblins of this coming election? You, conservative Christian, can you overlook some of his honest candor—some of his comparatively minor imperfections—and allow him to keep Western religion free? Will you humble yourself enough to reward his fight to save the unborn child?

When I look into Joe Biden’s face, I see the worst sort of evil dishonesty and carelessness fighting for his and his friends’ power and wealth. I see the sarcasm and denial needed in keeping alive the rankest sexism this nation will ever host. When I see Joe Biden’s posing to look like a saint, I see the insincerity of the devil himself. When I see Joe Biden, I see a constituency of ignorance deep enough to fully allow the worst sort of Trojan Horses to be pulled right into the very heart of this planet’s last bastion of hope and freedom. When I see Joe Biden, I see the unbridled power of a lying television and internet that have been used by the prince of darkness himself in order to dress up a slob like Biden, and take America down for its last gasp before it is forever silenced. When I see Biden’s face, I see nothing more than a conman.

When I see Donald Trump, I see the last brave shepherd boy we will ever find to stand before the giant now looking to destroy us. Trust this artist to know when this painting is truly finished. But without the concerted efforts of a revitalized “Christian Conservatism” and the help of the real God in Heaven, this 2020 battle is over—and lost—-before it starts.

Perfect Choice – Gretchen Whitmer Negotiating With Biden Team for Vice President Position…


Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced today she is in negotiations with the Biden campaign team to be considered a candidate for the Vice-Presidential nomination.  This would be an excellent choice by Joe Biden.  There are only a limited number of people on the planet as naturally unlikable by disposition as America’s Merkel, Fraulein Whitmer.

The totalitarian witch of the North would be the perfect compliment to a completely clueless Joe Biden.

(Via Daily Mail) Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer confirmed Tuesday that she is in talks with Joe Biden’s team to join the 2020 ticket.

‘I’ve had a conversation with some folks,’ she told the ‘Today’ show’s Craig Melvin. ‘It was just an opening conversation and it’s not something that I would call a professional formalized vetting.’

Biden, now the Democrats’ presumptive nominee, announced on a debate stage in March that he planned to pick a female running mate.  Among the nation’s female Democratic governors, Whitmer has been earning the most buzz. (read more)

Devin Nunes Discusses Criminal Referrals and Perspective of Susan Rice Memo…


HPSCI ranking member Devin Nunes appears for an interview with ¹Liz MacDonald to discuss his current House investigation and the latest declassification of the Susan Rice memo to file.

Nunes asks the basic question about the Rice memo: “why was it ever classified in the first place?”  The answer to that question points to current DOJ/FBI and intelligence officials.

.

¹Watch Liz Mac closely now. A little over a week ago she began catching-on to the substantive story about FISA, NSA database abuses, and how Obama’s overall political surveillance operation was conducted.

Navarro Discusses Angered POTUS Saying: “I Don’t Want to Talk To China Right Now”…


White House trade and manufacturing policy advisor Peter Navarro appears on Fox News to discuss the administration’s outlook toward China and the intense focus to bring critical manufacturing back to the U.S.

Earlier in the day a visibly angered President Trump told Maria Bartiromo he “doesn’t want to talk to China right now”, and Navarro highlights exactly why.   All administration policy and economic influence is targeted to remove Chinese manufacturing from the U.S. supply chain.  President Trump officials openly discussing an intentional U.S. effort to decouple from China is a significant shift…. WATCH:

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. to Build Advanced Chip Factory in Arizona…


Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross has been in discussions for several years with both TSMC and Intel to build advanced chip manufacturing plants in the U.S. and extract U.S. supply chain needs from China and southeast Asia.  It appears his efforts, and the emphasis on global supply-chain shifts from President Trump, are getting results.

According to numerous media reports Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) is likely to announce this week they will build an advanced chip manufacturing facility in Arizona.  A manufacturing facility for advanced 5 nanometer chip manufacturing is a steep investment decision costing around $10 billion.

This shift in a high-tech supply chain will align with President Trump’s prior discussions with Tim Cook the CEO of Apple which led to a decision to invest in Texas.  TSMC is a chip supplier for Apple products; and Apple is moving to the 5nm processors in new devices. It looks like the movement of advanced industrial products away from China is underway.

(Via Appleinsider) – Apple supplier Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. is set to announce that it plans to build an advanced chip factory in Arizona.

Taiwan-based TSMC is the world’s largest contract manufacturer of silicon chipsets and has long been Apple’s primary supplier of A-series chips.

Now, TSMC is said to be on the verge of announcing new plans to build out an advanced 5-nanometer facility in Arizona, The Wall Street Journalreported on Thursday.  The decision, reached by TSMC executives at a board meeting in Taiwan on Tuesday, could be announced as soon as Friday. (link)

This move is a direct result of President Trump playing the economic long-game with an assembly of interests… one result within a much bigger picture.

President Trump has been creating a dual position for several years; this is very unique because it is the same strategy used by China.  By expressing a panda mask, yet concealing the underlying dragon, President Trump’s policy to China is a mirror of themselves.

Historic Chinese geopolitical policy, vis-a-vis their totalitarian control over political sentiment (action) and diplomacy through silence, is evident in the strategic use of the space between carefully chosen words, not just the words themselves.

Each time China takes aggressive action (red dragon) China projects a panda face through silence and non-response to opinion of that action;…. and the action continues. The red dragon has a tendency to say one necessary thing publicly, while manipulating another necessary thing privately.  The Art of War.

President Trump is the first U.S. President to understand how the red dragon hides behind the panda mask.

First he got their attention with tariffs.  Then… On one hand President Trump has engaged in very public and friendly trade negotiations with China (panda approach); yet on the other hand, long before the Wuhan virus, Trump fractured their global supply chains, influenced the movement of industrial goods to alternate nations, and incentivized an exodus of manufacturing (dragon result).

It is specifically because he understands that Panda is a mask that President Trump messages warmth toward the Chinese people, and pours vociferous praise upon Xi Jinping, while simultaneously confronting the geopolitical doctrine of the Xi regime.

In essence Trump is mirroring the behavior of China while confronting their economic duplicity.

There is no doubt in my mind that President Trump has a very well thought out long-term strategy regarding China. President Trump takes strategic messaging toward the people of china very importantly. President Trump has, very publicly, complimented the friendship he feels toward President Xi Jinping; and praises Chairman Xi for his character, strength and purposeful leadership.

To build upon that projected and strategic message – President Trump seeded the background by appointing Ambassador Terry Branstad, a 30-year personal friend of President Xi Jinping.

To enhance and amplify the message – and broadcast cultural respect – President Trump used Mar-a-Lago as the venue for their first visit, not the White House.  And President Trump’s beautiful granddaughter, Arabella, sweetly serenaded the Chinese First Familytwice in Mandarin Chinese song showing the utmost respect for the guests and later for the hosts.

All of this activity mirrors the duplicity of China.  From the November 2017 tour of Asia to the January 2020 China phase-1 trade deal, President Trump has been positioning, for an economic decoupling and a complete realignment of global trade and manufacturing.

This announcement by TSMC today is one small part of a much bigger economic reset currently underway.  Beijing isn’t stupid, they can see themselves being outwitted and outplayed.  President Trump is winning.

 

 

Biden And The Dike, Can He Hold it back?


We think you’re gonna need a few more fingers Joe…

Joe Biden embodies the worst in politicians. For decades he has been a political prostitute out to further his own career and power first and foremost. He pretends to be ‘lunch bucket’ Joe who is out to help the working man, but he supported NAFTA and TPP and ‘free trade’ deals that hurt American working people by sending their jobs overseas—mostly to China.

He has unabashedly stolen the words of other politicians for his own speeches. A Ukraine prosecutor was ready to investigate Hunter Biden for corruption. Joe bragged about how he used his influence to get the prosecutor fired. As you may recall, Hunter landed a job on the board of a Ukraine gas company and made millions of dollars even though he knew nothing about the energy business. Biden also helped Hunter cut lucrative real estate deals with the Communist Chinese. Joe’s brothers also profited handsomely from Joe’s influence.

Sleepy Joe supports never-ending war. Biden likes to be associated with black voters, but he voted for a crime bill that locked many of them up over petty drug charges.

Gaffe-ridden Joe supported the Patriot Act and made it harder for working class people to declare bankruptcy. In other words, he’s on the side of big money interests, the central bankers, and the illuminati. Just like Obama was.

Joe was recently interviewed by Mika, the co-host on ‘Morning Joe.” She eviscerated him over sexual assault allegations brought against him. Joe came across as a bumbling and defensive hypocrite. Why are the mass media turning on Joe? Because they know he’s not fit to go up against President Trump. His record, his age, his scandals, and his mental deterioration will be disastrous for the party. The media always supported Hillary, but they seem to be turning on Joe.

This may be intentional. The Democratic Party will leverage Joe’s unelectable state as an excuse to switch to a more viable candidate.

Get ready for another run by Hillary Clinton.

Netflix Propaganda: Michelle Obama For Vice President

Now that the entire American electorate can be found hunkering down at home, courtesy of the ongoing pandemic scare, Michelle Obama is kicking off her campaign for vice president in a Netflix ‘documentary’, coming to a television screen somewhere in your private living quarters, tomorrow.

Get out the popcorn if without a job, you can still afford it.

Overbearing, Self-important Michelle Obama

Michelle Obama’s loudest of late lament is that “people stayed at home” instead of getting out to vote for Hillary Clinton in 2016.

That’s unforgivable, deplorables!

As far as Michelle is concerned, no crisis, even one that’s taking lives,  should ever be allowed to go to waste especially if you have Hollywood stars like Tom Hanks on your side for a 2020 election run.

Now that the entire nation is on governor-mandated Stay-At-Home rule, Joe Biden’s running mate is pushing for a nation-wide November 3rd mail-in vote.

If overbearing, self-important Michelle Obama has her way, not only can you be fully propagandized in the comfort of your own home, you can conveniently and comfortably vote from there too.

Do what the Dems do—do it digitally!

Where is this all coming from besides Obama and Tom Hanks?

“A newly-launched committee called “Draft Michelle Obama” is pushing for Joe Biden, the apparent Democrat presidential nominee, to select the former first lady as his running mate. (Breitbart, May 4, 2020)

“Helping lead this country to be more just and caring” is hardly what Michelle’s husband Barack Obama did

“The Committee to Draft Michelle Obama” firmly believes that Ms. Obama will not only benefit the Democratic ticket this November but also help lead this country to be more just and caring. However strongly we support Ms. Obama as Vice President Biden’s running mate, we will transfer our resolve to whoever joins the ticket to defeat the most dangerous incumbent in the history of our nation.”

All of its hype notwithstanding,  it’s the same old, same old 2016 message.

“Helping lead this country to be more just and caring” is hardly what Michelle’s husband Barack Obama did when his prime mission as twice-elected president was to “Fundamentally Transform America”—and tried to do it by getting America’s enemies to build on their visceral hatred of the U.S.

“Joe Biden has said he would choose Michelle Obama as his running mate ‘in a heartbeat.’ The aim of this campaign is to build on the substantial grassroots support for a potential Michelle Obama candidacy and help garner media attention for a vice-presidential nominee who has the power to beat Donald Trump,” the group said in a statement released Monday.

Sleepy Joe and Hugger Michelle

Says sleepy Joe about his former boss’s wife:

“She’s brilliant. She knows the way around. She is a really fine woman. The Obamas are great friends,” the former vice president told CBS Pittsburgh.” (Breitbart)

But self-described “hugger” Michelle Obama’s message to the pandemic challenged masses last week was: “I miss you all”. (Canada Free Press, April 27, 2020)

“Michelle Obama has described her When We All Vote initiative as a non-partisan effort to boost voter registration among all Americans. But the project, which is also aggressively pushing voting by mail, is backed by a slew of left-wing Hollywood and sports celebrities whose past public statements have been anything but non-partisan. (Breitbart, April 21, 2020)

“When We All Vote boasts a chairing committee of 12 celebrities whose ostensible task is to use their influencer status to boost the organization’s visibility, especially among young, impressionable voters who tend to look up to Hollywood stars. Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson were among the co-chairs who participated in a virtual voter registration drive on Monday, where they helped push for voting by mail across the country.”

It’s not just “the slew of left-wing Hollywood and sports celebrities whose past public statements have been anything but non-partisan”, how can the initiative’s creator who happens to be the ex-first lady, as wife to the ex-president credibly call herself “bipartisan”?

If all of those confined to home because of Coronavirus aren’t bored enough with nothing more to do than watch television, they can be bored stiff by watching Obama’s Netflix ‘documentary’,  which (big yawn!) chronicles her 34-city book tour in 2018-2019 for her best-selling memoir “Becoming”.

“Former first lady Michelle Obama says in her upcoming Netflix documentary Becoming that it was a “slap in the face’’ that black Americans failed to show up to vote in the 2016 presidential election, according to the New York Post. (Breitbart, May 4, 2020)

“It takes some energy to go high, and we were exhausted from it … when you’re the first black anything,’’ Obama said, referring to her and her husband, former President Barack Obama, of their failed efforts to help elect then-Democrat White House nominee Hillary Clinton.

“You know, the day I left the White House, it was painful to sit on that stage, and then a lot of our folks didn’t vote — it was almost a slap in the face,” the former first lady added.

“It wasn’t just in this election, but every midterm, every time Barack didn’t get the Congress he needed, that was because our folks didn’t show up,” she said during another point in the film. “After all that work, they just couldn’t be bothered to vote at all. That’s my trauma.”

Obama’s Netflix ‘documentary’ is nothing more than a pathetic attempt to walk back to a 4-year ago past

“Now we’re out of the White House, not to be viewed, judged and parceled by every other person on the planet — yeah, it’s better, it’s absolutely freeing,’’ said Obama. “Being the first lady has been the greatest honor of my life. But how many people are in that position where the entire attention of everything is you, every gesture you make, every blink of an eye is being analyzed?

“Barack and I are not interested in being at the forefront forever — not even for that long.”

Obama’s Netflix ‘documentary’ is nothing more than a pathetic attempt to walk back to a 4-year ago past.

In reality, Barack Obama is ex-president, Michelle, ex-1st lady.  Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election from which there is no coming back.

And most hated of all for Clinton and the Obamas, Donald J. Trump is president.

Michelle’s husband isn’t the president anymore, he’s the Harvey Weinstein-like ‘influencer’ running the show over at Netflix with his own ‘documentaries’, including the one pushing his wife as buddy Joe Biden’s vice president running mate.

‘Astroturf Guy’ David Axelrod Claims Sexual Allegations Never Came Up During 2008 Biden Vetting


Was Tara Reade brought into the Biden brouhaha as a firewall to deflect from Biden’s Ukraine and China scandals?

‘Astroturf Guy’ David Axelrod Claims Sexual Allegations Never Came Up During 2008 Biden Vetting

How is it even possible that former top Barack Obama adviser David Axelrod finds it more than passing strange that the sexual assault allegation leveled against Joe Biden did not come up in 2008 during the Obama campaign’s “vetting” process for their eventual presidential pick when ‘no-creds Obama’ himself had zero “vetting”?!

‘Astroturf guy’ Axelrod resurfaced with a this weekend Tweet, having already been there in 2008 and 2012:

Both Obama—and Biden—strutted past the smell test with absolutely NO VETTING of any meaningful kind

“Axelrod, who was the chief strategist for the campaign and later a White House senior adviser to former President Barack Obama, said that Biden was carefully vetted before being announced as Obama’s running mate and that nothing surfaced to cause concern, including this.” (Fox News, May 4, 2020)

“Before @JoeBiden was selected VP by @BarackObama, letters for the campaign scoured every aspect of his record, career and life,” Axelrod tweeted this weekend. “Tara Reade or complaints of sexual harassment or assault never came up.”

“He added: “I know. I was there.”

Axelrod sure was there, and that’s how both Obama—and Biden—strutted past the smell test with absolutely NO VETTING of any meaningful kind.

“In an op-ed for CNN late Friday, Axelrod detailed the campaign’s “comprehensive vet,” which he said “certainly would have turned up any formal complaints filed against Biden during his 36-year career in the Senate.” (Fox News)

“It did not,” he wrote. “The team would have investigated any salacious rumors of the sort that travel far and wide in Washington. There were none.”

LOL!!! Astroturf Guy!

“Through that entire process, the name Tara Reade never came up. No formal complaint. No informal chatter. Certainly, no intimation of sexual harassment or assault from her or anyone else. The team of investigators, expert in their work, would not have missed it,” he continued. “Reade did not surface her allegations of a criminal sexual assault when Biden was a candidate for president in 2008, nor did she offer them confidentially to the Obama vetting team when Biden emerged as a principal contender for vice president later that year.

“Had any credible issue been raised, you can be sure Biden would not have been the nominee,” he stated.”

LOL!!! Astroturf Guy!

In a typical CYA attempt, AG Axelrod had this to say about women who come forward with sexual harassment charges:

“Women who come forward deserve to be taken seriously and treated with respect, and Tara Reade’s story should be heard and thoroughly investigated,” Axelrod added. “But it is striking that when an experienced vetting team put Biden under a microscope before he was chosen to be second-in-line for the presidency, neither her allegations, nor anything resembling them in Biden’s history, showed up.” (Fox News)

“Axelrod’s defense of Biden comes after the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee was forced last week to personally address Reade’s allegations, which he “unequivocally” denied.”

In other words—just in time.

Why should Biden plant his hands anywhere on a woman’s body?

“No, it is not true,” Biden said during an interview Friday with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “I’m saying unequivocally it never, never happened and it didn’t. It never happened.” (Fox News)

“Reade, a staffer in then-Senator Biden’s office in 1993, accused him in late March of sexually assaulting her. Her story has changed over time, however.

“Last year, Reade claimed Biden put his hands on her shoulders and rubbed his fingers up and down her neck, but was unable to gain traction on her story aside from an article in a local newspaper. Then in March she accused him of assault.”

Why should Biden plant his hands anywhere on a woman’s body?

“Addressing why she remained silent for so long, she told Fox News that the treatment of Anita Hill during the 1991 confirmation of Supreme Court Associate Justice Clarence Thomas influenced her decision. Two years before Reade says that Biden assaulted her, Hill came forward accusing Thomas, her former supervisor, of sexual harassment amid his Senate confirmation, which was led by then-Senate Judiciary Chairman Biden. (Fox News)

How’s that for scoring politically correct political points?

“I really believed Anita Hill and I thought she was treated badly,” Reade told Fox News. “I think a lot of women felt the same way … that were professionals, you know, I was a young professional at the time.”

“And I didn’t like the way Joe Biden dealt with her, but I also didn’t like how she was dealt with in general, right? And what it did was that it made us more silent. What it did was show us was, ‘OK, when you try to go up against this, this is basically what you’re gonna face. So it was an example of… a deterrent.”

How’s that for scoring politically correct political points?

The Democrat Party and its #MeToo initiative hold the record for targeting sexual predators, but leave their surrogates to run run freely at large:

Convicted sexual predator movie mogul Harvey Weinstein contributed generously to the election campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama—both of whom are now angling to regain power.

Democrat plan was to replace Biden with a chosen vice president, such as Michelle Obama or Hillary Clinton

Convicted sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein purportedly took his own life in a New York City guarded prison before links between him and the Clintons could be forged.

Nothing will happen to presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden—even if Reade’s allegations of sexual assault could be proven true.

Even before the Reade allegation, the Democrat plan was to replace Biden with a chosen vice president, such as Michelle Obama or Hillary Clinton.

Was Tara Reade brought into the Biden brouhaha as a firewall to deflect from Biden’s Ukraine and China scandals?

Astroturf Guy David Axelrod knows.
