.....and that's become the problem, hasn't it? The unaccountable and insulated have become our tyrants. Bureaucracies, big business, entrenched life time politicians and judges......all serpents of Medusa. Cut one off and the rest come for vengeance. At least with the revolutionary war we only had one tyrant to fight.

Need some assistance here. My Dad is claiming that among the provisions of the gun control executive orders announced is a little tidbit that will restrict pretty much all AR15 parts save for slings and sights that will take effect May 5th. I am not finding anything and am wondering if this is true or not, I can see him panic buying if it was.

Thanks!

I don't believe it. Once again, he can't enact this all by himself, despite what the equivalent of the Hee Haw Gossip Girls say.

What all they intend to do about keeping ghost guns out of our hands is pretty vague, and until they come out with their actual recommendation, I would discount nothing. As we've seen, this administration is not known for being very forthcoming.

I can easily see them inserting language into it that limits the sale of parts, or certain parts required to complete a ghost gun.

Remember, we're talking about a whole administration that would consider it their crowning achievement to destroy the Second Amendment, by whatever means.

Question with regards to the study on the Supreme Court mentioned a few pages back. Does anyone think that is a veiled threat to the current 9 justices if any of these 2A related EO’s come their way? Also makes one wonder, just how much further will the people allow this to go?

It is infuriating that MSM kept all this from being widely known

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...titutes-luxury-cars/

Millions in Earnings Failed to Satiate Hunter Biden’s Hunger for Crack, Prostitutes, Luxury Cars

Hunter Biden owes massive credit card debt after living like a high roller with access to millions of dollars linked to business dealings overseas that proved insufficient to satisfy his ravenous appetite for drugs, prostitutes, and luxury cars, the Daily Mail reported Friday.

The Daily Mail published a bombshell report surrounding the potentially incriminating contents of a laptop purportedly owned by Hunter that was dropped off at a Delaware repair shop and eventually given to the FBI.

On Friday, the Daily Mail unveiled contents of the laptop that go well beyond the emails first reported by the New York Post in October 2020 detailing Hunter’s lucrative overseas business deals that helped him lead a drug-addled lifestyle.

Ultimately, his lifestyle left him broke, unable to support his drug and prostitute habit and support his family

Hunter reportedly made between $50,000 and $100,000 monthly working for corruption-linked Ukrainian gas conglomerate Burisma between 2014 and 2019, helping him fill his coffers with at least $6,070,150 from 2013 to 2016, the Daily Mail found.

Nevertheless, the news outlet noted, “Leaked emails reveal how Hunter Biden was desperate to avoid jail for unpaid taxes"

According to the documents obtained by the Daily Mail, Hunter kept a 2014 Porsche, an Audi, a 2018 Ford Raptor Truck, an $80,000 boat, a Range Rover, Land Rover, BMW, and Chevrolet Truck.

Hunter told an Arkansas judge he could not pay child support for the child he fathered with stripper Lunden Roberts, even as he rented a $12,000 per month home in Hollywood and was driving a Porsche Panamera at the time.

Ultimately, he settled the case with Roberts out of court after the judge ordered him to produce his financial records.

Although his money situation reportedly appeared to substantially improve in 2020, allowing him to pay the District of Columbia a $453,890 tax bill just six days after it was issued, that did not last long.

Hunter was unable to keep his high roller lifestyle and support his family on over a half a million dollar a year salary, and he had to borrow money from one of his companies to keep himself solvent, Eric Schwerin, the president of Hunter’s company Rosemont Seneca, reportedly wrote in an email in January 2017,

“As his finances descended into disarray and his assistants begged him to pay his mounting bills, the President’s son lashed out threatening to cut staff pay, take money from his daughter’s educational savings, and complained about his alimony bills,” the Daily Mail noted, adding:

"In October 2018 email from Hunter’s accountant shows that by that year his tax debt had ballooned to an eye-watering $804,000, including $600,000 in personal taxes and $204,000 for one of his businesses that received money from Ukrainian gas company Burisma."



from Dec 2020:




link to Daily Mail article w more detail: (much more detail, some pics not appropriate for family viewing)

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ne...ugs-luxury-cars.html

The President's son texted a woman named in his contact book as 'Oxana Russki' about a $2,000 payment for her and another woman who spent the night with him, and two Russian women, 'Kristina Matveeva and Rimma Elmeeva' also texted him asking for money

It's as if they fabricated the Steele dossier based on what Hunter Biden was actually doing

The President's son became testy under the pressure, responding to an email about unpaid bills from his Rosemont staffer Katie Dodge later that month telling her to cut her pay in half.

'Pay the health care. Pay the Porsche. Pay yourself 1500 not 3000,' Hunter told her.

'If you haven't noticed Katie my business partner is now a prisoner on death row in China,' he added, referring to the arrest in China six months earlier of his partner in a giant investment partnership, oil tycoon Ye Jianming.

Jianming's top lieutenant, Patrick Ho, had also been convicted by a US federal court earlier in December 2018 of bribery over African energy contracts.

I don't understand why this isn't a bigger story?

Chris Wallace grills Buttigieg on false jobs claim: 'Why mislead people?'

$2.25T ÷ 2.7M jobs = $833,333.33 per job with almost no infrastructure being built or repaired. First the obvious thing is that it's a flat out lie to call it an infrastructure bill. Second, I'm sure there it's a better use of money than spending $883k per job.

Meanwhile, at least we can breathe a sigh of relief that Kamala Harris is taking the illegal immigration bull by horns, right?

Maybe not -

- The White House announced that Kamala Harris would be stepping forward when Roberta Jacobson, "Biden's border czar who has played a key [diplomatic - IC] role in Mexico and the Northern Triangle [Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador]" announced that she would be stepping down. As Jake Sullivan, playing the role of National Security Adviser, put it, Harris would be "overseeing a whole of government approach" that would seem to make Harris the new immigration czar.

- Then the White House press weasel got pissed because people didn't realize that Harris wasn't responsible for handling immigration, but rather for diplomatic initiatives to control immigration.

- Then "a senior administration official" announced that Harris' role wasn't actually changing, but that the border initiative would continue to be spearheaded by the Secretaries of Homeland Security and Health and Human Services.

- Now "aides" for Harris say she's "reading up on the issues", making the odd (introductory?) phone call, and "discussing" planning a trip down to the "Northern Triangle". Other than that, she's not making any public appearances related to immigration, it's unknown when (or if) she'll make any major public announcements on immigration, and she's busy faffing around with economic speeches, vaccination sites, gun control and making vague promises about jobs.

http://www.yahoo.com/news/conf...-role-155900476.html

(Sigh.) I can't tell whether Harris is supposed to be the new Valerie Jarrett or is being shunted off into the eddies in order to keep her out of the way. All we can really tell is that Harris' ego is too big for Jacobson to have stayed on the job. And, of course, that there's way too much confusion and diffusion of responsibility for us to expect any actual controls on illegal immigration to be put in place any time soon.

Oh, yeah - and Biden's "considering filling in the gaps left in Trump's wall on the border".

Clusterfuck and confusion, here we come!

Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe appears with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the issues with Hunter Biden’s laptop and the severity of political compromise within the U.S. intelligence apparatus. Ratcliffe notes how politicized the intelligence community and national security have become specifically in defense of lies being perpetrated by those behind the Biden administration.

VP Harris’ response to migrant crisis borders on the absurd:

https://nypost.com/2021/04/11/...is-is-absurd-devine/

It’s humiliating for the president that almost three weeks since he appointed Kamala Harris as his border point-woman she still hasn’t visited the disaster zone, come up with a plan or held a press conference on the migrant crisis.

Instead, she’s visited a water- treatment plant in California and a bakery in Chicago, where the press pool reported on her sweet tooth last week.

“Her favorite is German chocolate, and [she] gets that for her birthday each year, and her staff had pre-ordered a slice for her. The bakery’s specialty is caramel cake, and she said she was looking forward to that too.”

Riveting stuff.

Meantime, the self-inflicted humanitarian tragedy at the southern border has spiraled out of control, opinion polls are heading south, the Biden appointee in charge has abruptly resigned, El Salvador’s president has refused to meet the visiting US envoy, and the VP is defying her boss and staying far away from the stinking mess to protect her reputation.

But while the pair play “pass the parcel,” the vacuum of leadership is only fueling a humanitarian catastrophe.

President Joe Biden knew when he appointed Harris to manage the crisis on March 24 that it was a poison chalice, which gives you a hint of the growing wariness in a relationship where the VP is referred to by insiders as “The Heiress” and Biden is regarded as incapable of serving a full term.

The White House announced at the time that Harris would “lead our efforts with Mexico and the Northern Triangle . . . in stemming the migration to our southern border.”

But two days later, when asked when she planned to go to the border, Harris responded with hysterical laughter. “Not today,” she chortled.

“The vice president is not doing the border,” her spokeswoman Symone Sanders told reporters.

Where is Kamala? Two weeks since being named border czar, Harris still hasn’t visited
Instead, Harris would be addressing the “root causes” of the surge in migration. To that end, she’s made two phone calls to regional leaders.

But the only root cause that matters is to restore Trump-era border-protection measures that Biden unwound by executive decree: restore the “Remain in Mexico” policy for asylum seekers, restart deportation of criminal aliens, finish the border wall and stop making children bait for cartels.

Biden has tried to claim the border surge is just a seasonal uptick, but numbers are soaring exponentially. Last month alone, 19,000 children were recorded crossing the border, double the previous month. The government reportedly anticipates more than 35,000 migrant children will need to be cared for by June.

Biden has put the sugar on the table for people smugglers and children are suffering.

Video footage online shows buses at a detention center in Texas in which every adult on board is accompanied by one small child. Biden’s policy of accepting unaccompanied minors has made children the tickets for entry to America, but how do we know if these kids are even related to the adults holding their hands? No one is doing DNA tests.

Another video shows a sobbing 10-year-old Nicaraguan child walking alone on a road in Texas before telling border agents he is afraid “they” might “rob or kidnap me or something.”

During a press conference last week, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott made stunning allegations of child sexual abuse at a migrant facility in San Antonio that holds more than 1,300 migrant children.

He told Fox News on Thursday that allegations of child sexual assault had been lodged with two state agencies in Texas: “[It] was a very specific description about ways in which children were being sexually assaulted, where it was happening, who was doing it and the horrific things that were being done which I cannot tell you on TV … The Biden administration knows about this … and yet still nothing is happening.”

Nothing except cynical distraction, denial and deflection.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi dismissed his complaints as “ridiculous . . . The fact is we’re on a good path at the border under the leadership of President Biden . . . It’s about restructuring . . . because we were in a very bad situation under the Trump administration.”

So desperate is the administration that government employees quietly are being offered four months paid leave from their jobs to help care for migrant children in shelters at the border, reports The New York Times.

But the White House won’t even acknowledge there is a problem.

On Friday, press secretary Jen Psaki spent more than double the time talking about the Ukrainian border than America’s southern border: 262 words versus 94.

“The reason for accepting these children is that we feel it is not the humane step to send these kids back on their treacherous journey,” she said, as if the atrocities being committed in our name are compassionate.

Later that afternoon the White House issued a statement that Roberta Jacobsen, the White House coordinator for the southern border, had resigned.

She must be the only person in the administration with a conscience.

The Biden family biz? Nepotism
As Hunter Biden has his reputation laundered by a fawning media, his abandoned laptop reveals the extent of entitlement and privilege long enjoyed by the President Biden’s family and vigorously exploited by his crack-loving son.

In a 2015 email exchange, Hunter’s cousin Missy Owens asks him to procure a government appointment for her mother, Valerie Owens, the sister of then-VP Joe Biden: “I really want to get on something, but . . . mom needs it more than I do right now.” Hunter replies that he will “go through the list with Steve [Ricchetti, then Joe’s chief of staff, now White House counselor] and see what makes sense. I don’t know how much 2016 [the election] and nepotism plays into it.”

Lo and behold the following year, President Barack Obama appoints Aunt Val to a ceremonial role at the United Nations, a four-month stint that pays $26,000.

In addition, a memo to Hunter from his business partner Eric Schwerin in 2016 sets up two $12,500 per month “consulting” contracts for Aunt Val when the UN gig runs out.

The Biden Foundation is to provide a “Consulting Contract with Valerie Owens or her LLC for $12,500 a month for one year.”

Missy herself, along with sister Casey, landed a federal job during the Obama administration, before moving to a lucrative “government relations” job with Coca-Cola. See how it works?

The rules never apply to the Bidens. Jobs, Ivy League berths, internships, judge clerkships, all are there for the taking. When family members have a run-in with the law, they are treated with kid gloves, whether it’s DWI, credit-card fraud, shoplifting, assaulting police, or lying on a background-check form about your drug use when buying a gun, as Hunter did in 2016.

Black people have served serious time for far less. Rapper Kodak Black, for instance, was sentenced to 46 months in prison on federal weapons charges in 2019 after lying on the form to buy firearms.

It’s a sick irony that, while Joe Biden wages war on white privilege, his 51-year-old son is the living embodiment of the worst of it.
