Julie Kelly: "No Data Supports Threat of 'White Supremacists'"

No Data Supports Threat of 'White Supremacists'


by Julie Kelly

Joe Biden will travel to Buffalo on Tuesday, ostensibly to join the upstate New York community in mourning the murders of 10 people at a local grocery store over the weekend. It is, of course, appropriate for Biden in his role as president to grieve with Americans devastated by such a brutal massacre of innocents, especially an attack that from all accounts was racially motivated.
What's not appropriate is for Biden to use the atrocity as a platform to fuel even more hatred and division in a country ripping apart at the seams in so many ways—but that's exactly what he will do. The man who launched his 2020 campaign for president touting the lie that Donald Trump commended "very fine" white supremacists after a 2017 protest in Charlottesville can be expected to promote another lie; violent white supremacists and domestic extremists pose a heightened threat to the country.
That tired mantra remains an animating feature of the Biden regime. On his second full day in office, Biden instructed his national security team to devise a whole-of-government approach to combat "domestic terrorism," largely using the events of January 6, 2021 as the pretext. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki promised a "fact-based analysis upon which we can shape policy" when she announced the initiative on January 22, 2021.
Desperate Democrats Are Using the Shooting in Buffalo to Promote Censorship


by Drew Allen


Two mass shootings took place over the weekend‚ one at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, and another at a Presbyterian church in Laguna Woods, California.
On Saturday, an 18-year-old white kid opened fire on a crowd of people at a grocery store in a predominantly black neighborhood in Buffalo. On Sunday, a 60-year-old Chinese immigrant opened fire on a lunch reception at the Southern California church where the congregation is primarily Taiwanese.
Both incidents are tragic and horrific, but Joe Biden will only visit the scene of one of the crimes. Can you guess which one?

The White House on Sunday afternoon announced that Biden and his wife Jill would travel to Buffalo on Tuesday to "grieve with the community that lost 10 lives in a senseless and horrific mass shooting." But Biden isn't going to Buffalo to grieve. He's going there to exploit the atrocity for political gain in an important midterm election year.

The Abundance Choice (Or, the Mechanics of Ballot Initiatives)



by Edward Ring

By the spring of 2021, it was obvious the California State Legislature would not change its inadequate approach to water policy. As the state faced another year of drought, restricting water use was the only solution being taken seriously in Sacramento. And at the same time cities were being told to prepare to ration water, farmers faced new regulations restricting not only how much water they could divert from rivers, but also how much groundwater they could pump.
For this reason, and after talking with people all over California whose businesses and jobs depended on a reliable water supply, I decided to form a group of volunteers to promote a ballot initiative that would focus on funding projects to increase California's supply of water. The tentative name for our campaign, which we eventually adopted, was More Water Now.
The potential for initiatives to fundamentally change the political landscape in California is well documented. The now legendary Proposition 13, approved by voters in 1978, is the classic example. Prop. 13 limited property tax reassessments to two percent per year. And thanks to Prop. 13, if you own your home long enough, eventually property taxes become a manageable burden, instead of an inevitable eviction notice. California is one of 15 U.S. states that allow citizens to gather signatures from registered voters and qualify both statutes and amendments for their state ballot. But to say this is not easy would be an understatement.

Agriculture, Fuel Costs, and the Price Hikes to Come



by Jared Storm

I am an aerial applicator from Nebraska. What the heck is that, you might ask? I apply pesticides and fertilizer to crops throughout the summer months with an airplane to help farmers maximize their yields. This allows them to feed not only the United States, but also half the world. Aircraft are just another tool for farmers to keep our food supply affordable, plentiful, and safe. Aerial application is very common throughout the United States and the rest of the world. Anywhere there is commercial agriculture, you will more than likely see an airplane or helicopter flying back and forth doing their thing with precision and skill. 
There are approximately 2,500 ag pilots in the United States who cover millions of acres each year from California to Florida and everywhere else in between. Ag aircraft are useful for everything from spreading dry fertilizer and seeding crops such as rice to applying liquid pesticides and fertilizers. They are even called upon to fight fires by dropping borate or water to extinguish wildfires and save property and lives.    
How the Dobbs Leak Undermines Justice



by Michael Warren

Politico earlier this month published a draft majority opinion of the U.S. Supreme Court in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. The draft reverses the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, which found a federal constitutional right to an abortion based on the right to privacy. The resulting media frenzy and political explosion proves exactly why the leak of such opinions and the inner workings of courts has an extremely corrosive effect on American constitutional jurisprudence and gravely threatens the rule of law. 
Remember that the United States Constitution establishes three branches of government: legislative (Congress and state legislature), executive (president and governor), and judicial (federal and state courts). The legislature makes the law; the executive enforces the law; and the judiciary interprets the law and applies it fairly to resolve disputes.
Only by maintaining the three branches can we preserve freedom. James Madison observed that separation of powers was "a first principle of free government," and that "The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or selective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."
Got Milk?


By Christopher Roach


Systematic shortages have become widespread. One hoped that the panic buying of toilet paper during the height of COVID hysteria was a temporary blip, the result of irrational consumer behavior. But shortages have now become a persistent, systemic problem. 
I've noticed what seem like random shortages for items like pet food, green tea, or Aidells' wonderful Cajun sausages. Bikes and bike parts were hard to come by for a while. Ammunition, of course, has been very expensive and is often out of stock. When there is not a shortage, there are very high prices and quality degradation. For example, meat is super expensive, and the cuts are worse. 
It's as bad or worse in the "B2B" sector. This is a frequent complaint of any contractor or procurement manager you run into. Everyone's having issues, and it's been this way for two years. 
Experts blame it on the supply chain. Of course, this is simply a tautology: when willing buyers and sellers cannot get together, then there is some kind of supply chain problem. The nature of the problem, as well as its causes and potential solutions, are not illuminated by simply labeling it a supply chain problem. 
More importantly, this is not how this country is supposed to be.
Kamala Harris Says She Wants to 'Work Together' to Solve the 'Climate Crisis' Five Times in 30 Seconds



by Debra Heine

While delivering one of her signature "word salads" at the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit on Friday, Kamala Harris strongly stressed the importance of "working together" to solve the "climate crisis." Within a span of 30 seconds, in fact, she repeated the phrase "work together" five times.
The ASEAN Summit is a biannual meeting held by the members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations to discuss economic, political, security, and socio-cultural development of Southeast Asian countries.
The ten ASEAN nations are Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

Harris focused her remarks on the Biden administration's "collective goals of working together" to mitigate climate change.
"That is especially true when it comes to the climate crisis. Which is why we will work together, and continue to work together, to address these issues, to tackle these challenges, and to work together as we continue to work operating from the new norms, rules, and agreements, that we will convene to work together on. To galvanize global action. With that I thank you all. This is a matter of urgent priority for all of us. And I know we will work on this together," she said.
Liz Cheney Accuses GOP Leaders of Enabling White Supremacism After Buffalo Massacre


by Debra Heine

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Monday lashed out at her own party, accusing House Republican leadership of having "enabled white nationalism, white supremacy, and anti-semitism."
"History has taught us that what begins with words ends in far worse," Cheney wrote on her personal Twitter account less than two days after Saturday's racially motivated massacre at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York. "@GOP leaders must renounce and reject these views and those who hold them."
According to the New York Post, Cheney's tweet was likely alluding to the GOP leaders' tolerance of two Republican lawmakers—Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Paul Gosar of Arizona.
In February of this year, Greene delivered a keynote address at a conference that was hosted by noted white supremacist Nick Fuentes and was held opposite the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Florida. Greene later claimed she had not been aware of Fuentes' views, which include Holocaust denial and defenses of segregation.
Similarly, Gosar attended Fuentes' America First Political Action Committee last year and was later censured by the House and stripped of his committee assignments after he posted a video depicting himself as an anime character assassinating far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and attacking President Biden.
Cheney was removed from her position as House Republican Conference chair in favor of Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) a year ago after she repeatedly denounced former President Trump in the wake of the January 6 riot.
Merrick Garland Refuses to Prosecute Protesters Terrorizing Supreme Court Justices



by Eric Lendrum

On Friday, Attorney General Merrick Garland refused to answer a basic question about whether or not he would be prepared to prosecute protesters who are attempting to intimidate Supreme Court justices outside their homes.
As reported by Just The News, there is a federal law on the books that strictly forbids coordinated efforts to intimidate judges. U.S. code 1507 states that anyone who "pickets or parades" in the vicinity of "a building or residence occupied or used by such judge, juror, witness, or court officer," with the clear "intent of interfering with, obstructing, or impeding the administration of justice, or with the intent of influencing any judge, juror, witness, or court officer," will face a fine, or be "imprisoned not more than one year, or both."
As such, Governors Glenn Youngkin (R-Va.) and Larry Hogan (R-Md.), in whose states the majority of Supreme Court justices currently reside, have asked Garland's Department of Justice (DOJ) to enforce the law by arresting and prosecuting such protesters. Republican lawmakers have made similar demands.
Biden Administration Removes Five Terror Groups from Blacklist



by Eric Lendrum

On Friday, the Biden Administration announced that it would be removing at least five known terrorist organizations from the official foreign terror blacklist.
Fox News reports that Secretary of State Anthony Blinken notified Congress of the administration's decision, claiming that the five groups in question are all defunct. Removed from the list are two Islamic terror groups, the Mujahideen Shura Council in the Environs of Jerusalem, and Gama'a al-Islamiyya; a Japanese doomsday cult called Aum Shinrikyo; a radical Orthodox Jewish group known as Kahane Kach; and the Spanish separatist group Basque Fatherland and Liberty.
Some have speculated that the announcement could be a precursor to the Biden White House eventually announcing its plans to remove Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) from the same list, as the administration continues to pure diplomatic relations with the radical Islamic theocracy.
Voters Increasingly Returning to In-Person Ballots over Mail


by Eric Lendrum

In many states across the country, voters appear to be returning to in-person voting for their top preference, after vote-by-mail was greatly increased and heavily promoted during the coronavirus pandemic.
According to the Associated Press, many states, including key swing states, have seen massive drops in the number of requests for mail-in ballots. In Georgia, where nearly one million ballots were cast by mail in the primary elections in 2020, only about 85,000 voters have requested mail-in ballots for this year's primary. Other states that saw similar declines include Ohio, West Virginia, and Indiana.
In 2020, a record high of approximately 43 percent of American voters cast their ballots by mail; in 2016, by contrast, only about 24.5 percent sent in mail-in ballots. A key component of this trend was the COVID-19 pandemic, where lockdown measures that shut down businesses, schools, and everyday life led to increased calls for making voting easier and more convenient. At least 12 states significantly expanded vote-by-mail operations.
Surging 'Ultra MAGA' Pennsylvania Senate Candidate Kathy Barnette Answers Questions about Her Background



by Debra Heine

In a series of interviews Thursday, "Ultra MAGA" Pennsylvania senatorial candidate Kathy Barnette attempted to clear the air after her campaign came under attack for not being transparent about her background.
After her highly praised debate performance on May 4, Barnette surged to a statistical three-way tie with Republicans David McCormick and the Trump-endorsed Dr. Mehmet Oz in the Republican primary race for the open U.S. Senate seat in Pennsylvania.
During the debate, Barnette revealed that she was a product of rape, and her mother was only 11 years old when she was conceived.
"I was not just a lump of cells, as you can see, I'm still not just a lump of cells​. My life has value and that is one of the reasons why it was very disturbing when I saw Mehmet Oz running for this particular race when I've seen him on numerous occasions and specifically at the ​'​Breakfast Club​' saying that my life was nothing more than an acorn with electrical currents​," Barnette said.

    STOCKS RESUME CRASH--MORE TO COME(THINK 2008)SAYS ANALYST SCOTT MINERD

    GRA:Take what stock analysts with a grain of salt,but if you think like I do,that the Dems want the complete destruction of our country,be ready,is all I can say.

    (Marketwatch)The carnage playing out in the U.S. stock market Wednesday is likely an amuse-bouche compared to the devastation on the menu for the bulls in the coming months and years, Guggenheim Partners Global Chief Investment Officer Scott Minerd told MarketWatch in an interview.

    The prominent CIO on Wednesday said he envisioned the possibility of a dreadful summer and fall for stock-market investors — one in which the Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, -4.94% eventually unravels, plunging 75% from its Nov. 19, 2021 peak (currently it’s down around 28%) and the S&P 500 SPX, -4.27% tumbles 45% from its Jan. 3 peak (presently down 18%), as we head into July.

    “That looks a lot like the collapse of the internet bubble,” Minerd said, referring to the slow-motion downturn of technology stocks in 1999 and early 2000.

    What’s driving Minerd’s pessimism? He fears that the Federal Reserve has made it abundantly clear that they are aiming to raise interest rates, despite the possibility that it could result in ructions in equity markets and elsewhere.

    ”What’s clear to me” is that “there is no market put and I think we’re all waking up to that fact now,” Minerd said.

    The CIO was alluding to the so-called “Federal Reserve put option,” which is shorthand for the belief the U.S. central bank will rush in to rescue tanking markets — a notion that has been denied by previous Fed Chairman.

    MORE BEAR MARKET FEARS: Why are stocks falling? Inflation jitters killing fragile ‘bear market’ bounce

    On Tuesday, Chairman Jerome Powell also appeared to try to disabuse investors of the notion that the Fed would be eager to throw investors a buoy as monetary policy makers attempt to combat an outsize dose of inflation.

    “Restoring price stability is an unconditional need. It is something we have to do,” Powell said in an interview Tuesday during The Wall Street Journal’s Future of Everything Festival.

    “There could be some pain involved,” Powell added.

    Minerd said he believed the Fed will continue to raise rates “until they see a clear breaking of the inflation trend and they are wiling to go above neutral rate,” referring to a level of interest rates that neither stimulates nor restrains the economy.

    Earlier this month, the Fed’s rate-setting committee raised benchmark federal-funds rate to a target range between 0.75% and 1%. It is expected to raise rates about at least 50 basis points at its June 14-15 gathering, as U.S. inflation stood at an 8.3% annual rate in April, according to the Labor Department. That is well above the Fed’s target rate of 2%.

    GRA:The Fed will join in the destruction of the country.Raising rates too quickly will crush the market and the economy.Bitcoin may collapse,retirement funds gone,housing prices will implode--and then with the United States in a debt tsunami and the stock bubble popping,my prediction of a Great Depression comes to pass--engineered INTENTIONALLY by the powers that be.

    It isn't baked in the cake yet,but we're hurtling in that direction quickly.

    Stay tuned.
