“Joe Biden Claims No Time to Visit Border as President Despite 24 Trips Home to Delaware“. And no interest in a wall… unless it’s a $455,000 barrier around his personally owned beach front property. Imagine if Trump had stolen half a million dollars to fence off one of HIS properties. https://www.foxnews.com/politi...nd-bidens-beach-home The southern border with Mexico is seeing the highest levels of illegal border crossings in 35 years, but the Department of Homeland Security has found one access point it can shore up — doling out $455,000 to a Delaware construction company for a fence around President Biden’s "Summer White House." In September, the department awarded a contract of $456,548 to Turnstone Holdings LLC for "PURCHASE AND INSTALLATION OF SECURITY FENCING AT 32 FARVIEW, REHOBOTH DELAWARE," according to USAspending.gov, an online database tracking federal government spending. The contract started Sept. 21 and is expected to end Dec. 31. Construction of the fence is expected to end by that date. The DHS is listed as the main awarding and funding office of the contract while the US Secret Service is listed as the subagency. Additional information and details about the fence have not been publicly released. For security reasons, the Secret Service declined to discuss their "protective means and methods" with The Post when asked for comment. DHS did not immediately respond to The Post’s inquiry about the contract. The construction of the private security fence comes in a chaotic first year of Biden’s presidency, which has seen historic numbers of illegal immigrants crossing at the southern border. This week, data released by US Customs and Border Protection revealed that 1.7 million migrants have crossed the border in FY 2021, the highest number since 1986. The Biden administration has faced backlash over its action — or sometimes inaction — throughout the surge, with critics slamming the president’s decision to halt construction of the border wall, which he did as one of his first actions as president. This month, DHS announced its intention to cancel "the remaining border barrier contracts located within US Border Patrol’s (USBP) Laredo Sector and all border barrier contracts located in the Rio Grande Valley Sector." Per the department, the unspent funds will be spent on environmental projects including "biological, cultural, and natural resource surveys" in the border region. It is not the first time since Biden took office that security has been boosted around the North Shores home. In June, Secret Service and local law enforcement put together a checkpoint at an intersection on the way to the home, closed a nearby pond and put temporary flight restrictions in place, according to the Cape Gazette, which was the first to report on the contract. During his second visit, the Coast Guard also took security measures by creating security zones in the Lewes-Rehoboth Canal and Atlantic Ocean. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

Glad to see that Biden's approval rating continues to decline. Maybe he will surpass Truman's 22 percent approval rating. Consistent with Biden, Psaki blamed pandemic malaise. | |||

Some encouraging news. The Dems are fighting over tax legislation. A proposal has been floated to heavily tax the 700 or so billionaires in this country. Since that definitely does not include me I can live with that. Musk and Zuckerberg can pay. It seems like sleepy and his cronies have been in charge forever. | |||

Gracie Allen is my personal savior! |
^^^ Again, the devil will be in the details of the mechanism they choose if they actually turn that into legislation. The Dems seem to think an amazing number or people are rich if they inherit anything, cash in a retirement plan or sell a home. | |||

^^^^^^^^^^ You are correct. Sinema seems to be holding out. At least I have some hope. | |||

I think the answer is obvious… | |||

You're ok with it because it doesn't affect you or because you agree with the proposal? Year V | |||

Slippery slope / bad precendent. Next theyll start taxing people's 401k or retirement plans, taxing ALL home sales, etc. Plus its destined to fail...those 700 people, if faced with taxation, will just expatriate their holdings to some tax-friendly haven. Like Eduardo Saverin, when faced with paying $700 MM in taxes in the US upon Facebook IPO, he renounced US citizenship and moved to Singapore.

The only tax I will ever be OK with is a flat-one. No deductions, exemptions, write-offs, etc. | |||

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Because it does not affect me. I think the entire tax proposal is more socialism. | |||

I was wondering who dresses Joe. He always looks impeccable and what seems to be tailored clothing. Wonder if he has a personal valet. I was thinking if he dressed himself he would be wearing a muscle shirt with a sport coat and his hair would be askew. | |||

Be prepared for loud noise and recoil |
Sinema seems to be enjoying the attention. But she clearly knows which side her bread is buttered on. She’s acting in accordance to her constituent’s wishes, which I can respect. Same for Manchin.
