Biden Forgets Things In Speech Defending His Memory
NPR Washington Desk - President Biden gave a fiery defense of his mental acuity at the White House on Thursday evening (01/09/2024) after a U.S. Justice Department special counsel delivered a report that described him as an "elderly man with a poor memory" who had trouble remembering timelines.
Biden emphasized that the DOJ concluded he should not be charged over classified documents found in his home and an office — and quoted sections of the report that contrasted his behavior with that of former President Donald Trump, who faces federal charges related to retention of classified documents.
Biden blamed his staff for the documents being in the wrong places, and said he should have overseen their efforts more closely.
He angrily responded to special counsel Robert Hur's description of a portion of an interview in which Hur said Biden seemed to not remember when his son, Beau, died.
"How in the hell dare he raise that?" Biden said, adding it was "none of their damn business," and choking up with emotion. "I don't need anyone to remind me when he passed away," he said. He said that Hur's description did not belong in the report. "They don't know what they're talking about," he said.
Beau Biden died in 2015.
Asked by a reporter about the description of being "a well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory," Biden said: "I'm well meaning and I'm an elderly man and I know what I'm doing."
Asked if his memory had become worse, he said: "My memory is fine."
But when he answered a question about current hostage negotiations with Israel and Hamas, Biden mistakenly said that President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi of Egypt was the "president of Mexico."
In recent days in off-camera events, Biden has thrice mixed up names of foreign leaders, calling French President Emmanuel Macron "Mitterrand" and former German Chancellor Angela Merkel "Helmut Kohl." François Mitterrand and Kohl were former leaders of France and Germany, respectively.

Racial Segregation at Evanston HS
Under the guise of closing the “achievement gap” between students of European ancestry and those of African and Latino heritage, victims of a government school in Illinois are being put into classes segregated by race. Yes, really. Apparently, “education” officials believe eliminating all white students from class will help non-whites perform better, or so they say.
Lawyers for the district north of Chicago claim that because the white-free classes are optional, laws forbidding segregation and racial discrimination do not apply.

Illegal Immigrants Surge at Southern Border
Former U.S. Border Patrol Chief Ron Vitiello calls out the president's response to the border crisis on 'America Reports.'
On Monday, December 18th, officials at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported a record number of migrants at the Eagle Pass sector of the southern border, with over 12,600 apprehensions in a single day.
The daily surge along the southern border - especially at the Eagle Pass sector - has fluctuated. However, throughout the Biden Administration, the CBP continues to encounter large numbers of illegal immigrants crossing the border. In fiscal year 2023, CBP apprehended over 2 million migrants at the border, the highest number in two decades.

In January 2022, Jack Smith's team secretly obtained a subpoena from a judge to access Donald Trump's Twitter account information. This included direct messages, deleted tweets, and other data, potentially revealing who liked his tweets and who he interacted with.
Twitter initially resisted, claiming they needed to notify Trump first. This was taken up to an appellate court where it led to a $350,000 fine against Twitter's new owner, Elon Musk.

Eric Metaxas: Awake, You Who Sleep (2023)
Eric Metaxas is, among other things, a New York Times #1 bestselling author, speaker, host of a nationally-syndicated radio show, and a strong Christian conservative whose wit, clarity, and stubborn optimism make him a much sought-after voice in this cultural moment.
Eric’s sense of humor has allowed him to contribute his creative genius and voice to various VeggieTales productions and a long list of children’s books... His sense of humor is in no way limited to kids’ spaces but rather a feature of both his writing and his speaking, bringing levity to even the most intense topics and conversations.
"Letter to The American Church" is Eric’s most recent book, functioning as a clarion call to believers across the nation not to repeat the mistakes of German Christians during the rise of the Third Reich.
As informed by the extensive research he conducted while writing Bonhoeffer, Eric brings to this new book his expertise on the cultural and spiritual mood of 1930s Germany, which largely made possible Hitler’s rise and the genocide of millions.
In the face of a darkening and confused culture, Eric Metaxas makes a career out of bringing both encouragement and a challenge to believers. He calls for Christians of conviction to stand firm, speak the truth, and do so with the hope that comes from our faith in the gospel.
Eric is a happy warrior for the application of a Christian worldview to every aspect of our lives.

Questions Surrounding Deal with Chinese Company Battery Plant
NOW WITH SOUND!!
The Illinois Freedom Caucus today held on Monday (10/2/23) to demand answers to some of the concerns Manteno residents have with a Chinese company building a battery plant in their community.
The Chinese company Gotion High-Tech Co. is in line for $ 7.5 billion in federal tax credits over five years, while the State of Illinois is kicking in an additional $536 million in subsidies to build the plant. The cost to build the plant is $2 billion and the subsidies add up to an astounding $3 million per job.
“Manteno may not be in our districts, but the people of this community deserve to have their voices heard,” said State Representative Dan Caulkins (R-Decatur). “This deal was negotiated in secret without the input of Manteno residents. The Governor needs to answer their questions and address their concerns.”
State Rep. Brad Halbrook (R-Shelbyville) said it defies common-sense to make a deal with a company with ties to the Chinese Communist Party without requiring any kind of disclosures. He said China’s human rights abuses make them a bad-faith partner in business deals.

U.S. Congresswoman Spartz: Americans Are Afraid of Their Government
During a U.S. House Judiciary Committee Hearing on Wednesday, September 20, 2023, U.S. Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-IN) emphatically complained to Attorney General Merrick Garland that there is growing fear of government persecution among Americans, saying at one point, "It's like KGB."
In a Tweet later, she points out:
"As someone who grew up in the Soviet Union, I’m disturbed by the fact that so many hardworking Americans—including my constituents—are afraid of political persecution by our own government.
Unfortunately, it does not seem like AG Garland is."
