| | Re: Will Biden be a good President? GOP Biden impeachment inquiry today. - All the GOP expert witnesses said not enough evidence yet to impeach Biden.
- “You want witnesses that make your case. Picking witnesses that refute House Republicans' arguments for impeachment is mind-blowing,” one senior GOP aide told CNN. “This is an unmitigated disaster.”
- Republicans admitted they would not reveal any new evidence, but were hoping to at least make the public case for why their impeachment inquiry is warranted, especially as some of their own members remain skeptical of the push.
- Two other Republican committee chairs further pressed their case, including by citing some of the newly released Internal Revenue Service documents, which two IRS whistleblowers claim show how the Justice Department intervened in the Hunter Biden criminal probe to protect the Biden family. However, many of their examples of alleged wrongdoing occurred during the Trump administration before Joe Biden took office.
- Rep. Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, staff brought in the 12,000 pages of bank records the committee has received so far, as Raskin said, “not a single page shows a dime going to President Joe Biden.”

| | Re: Will Biden be a good President? | Quote: | |  | | | That dog should NOT be at the White House and around so many people. The last I knew, "Commander" had been taken back to Biden's home in Delaware. Not sure why it didnt stay there. It sounds like the dog definitely has some aggression issues. | | | | | You're probably mistaking it for Major, the predecessor dog that had Biden trip and brake his foot around election/inauguration time. Biden sayd he was chasing the dog trying to catch it by its tail as part of what he calls play. Not a single dog owner I know would even think of abusing his dog like that.
No wonder his dogs have severe issues that would get them put down if it were here.

CNN not a peep! | | | | | I check CNN's website daily and have seen it mentioned quite a few times on there. In fact, I just checked it now and it's mentioned right on their main page.
Of course, though, they're not going to sensationalize it and use it to appeal to their viewer base as Fox News does. There could be an asteroid the size of Russia headed for earth and Fox News wouldn't report about it because they're too busy focusing on what shoes Biden wore today.

Seems Trump was doch right | | | | | Well, I see it similarly to the situation in Europe. 70% of voters think something needs to be done to limit illegal immigration. I am among them. It is politically insane to avoid the topic and pretend there is no issue. Trump's policy of separating children from parents was disgusting though, and I also think there needs to be a reasoanble path to legality for the millions of illegals who are working and living mostly regular lives in the US.
If Biden shows some more toughness and middle of the road policy on the border, he potentially closes one big issue that independents have with him.

| | Re: Will Biden be a good President? | Quote: | |  | | | | | | | | Apparently, Biden did that because the funds had already been appropriated for the wall, prior to Biden taking office, and there was no way of undoing that or reappropriating the money.
"Money was appropriated for the border wall," Biden told reporters, referring to congressional action during the Trump administration. "I tried to get them to reappropriate -- to redirect the money. They didn't, they wouldn't. And in the meantime, there's nothing under the law other than they have to use the money for what is appropriated. I can't stop that." https://www.google.com/amp/s/abcnews...3fid=103757017 |

Otherwise the totally law-abiding "the buck stops here" Joe has broken regulations/law for almost three years by dragging his feet.

Biden would have been breaking the law if he had ordered the wall to continue to be built, because the wall was (or is?) violating the Clean Air Act, Safe Drinking Water Act and Endangered Species Act (among others) and was violating environmental restrictions. That's why he had to waive 26 federal laws to allow construction of the wall to continue in order to allow those appropriated funds to be used, because the Dept. of Homeland Security is required to use those funds for its appropriated purpose. So essentially, it was laws competing against one another.
"The Clean Air Act, Safe Drinking Water Act and Endangered Species Act were some of the federal laws waived by DHS to make way for construction that will use funds from a congressional appropriation in 2019 for border wall construction. The waivers avoid time-consuming reviews and lawsuits challenging violation of environmental laws."

If the notion were true the funds have to be spent he broke his duties by not spending them earlier even though he could have. Just like he's done now he could have, and should have according to his own claim, removed them long ago.
At least one part is a lie, demonstrating that Joe is a liar. The same applies to everybody who repeats his lie including Mayorkas and KJP.
