After four years of having an Adult for President, we now have this? Call 911.

After four years of having an Adult for President, we now have this? Call 911. I don’t know what that was last night, but for a few minutes, I was wondering if I fell asleep and was dreaming. First here’s the Speech.

I must admit I couldn’t watch it a second time. I’m still in shock from the live telecast yesterday. It’s as if the man had no clue about what’s happened. He refuses to take responsibility for leaving no Respirators or masks when He along with Obama left office.

This from the USA Today.

Our rating: True

We rate this claim TRUE because it is supported by our research. There is no indication that the Obama administration took significant steps to replenish the supply of N95 masks in the Strategic National Stockpile after it was depleted from repeated crises. Calls for action came from experts at the time concerned for the country’s ability to respond to future serious pandemics. Such recommendations were, for whatever reason, not heeded.

Our fact-check sources:

Joe Biden gave no credit to all the folks who the past year have been doing an awesome job. These folks in the Trump administration ( under the direction of President Trump and Vice President Pence ) saved millions of lives. Even some of the folks in the Biden administration ( including the fauch ) have said what a success Operation Warp Speed has been and it’s still being used.

Biden and Harris both said they were left with a mess and no vaccine or plans. Oh really?

Andy Slavitt, a senior adviser to the White House’s Covid team, on Thursday credited the Trump administration’s Operation Warp Speed for spurring the development of a Covid vaccine at an unprecedented pace.

“We’re grateful for the work that came before us and are doing the best we can to continue it and accelerate it,” Slavitt said on Fox News. “I would absolutely tip my hat. … The Trump administration made sure that we got in record time a vaccine up and out. That’s a great thing and it’s something we should all be excited about.”

Below are videos who show President Trump and Operation Warp Speed getting the credit. Biden mentioned the three vaccines. What he left out was they were all developed under the Trump administration.

So what didn’t the MSM tell us about the $1.9 trillion dollar Turkey bill?

So what didn’t the MSM tell us about the $1.9 trillion dollar Turkey bill? Oh sure we hear the so called good stuff in the COVID bill. $1,400 checks, $300 a week extra in unemployment, and more money for COVID.  9% of the total bill. But what’s left out?

How many folks on the left knew that California with a 20 billion dollar surplus was getting over 20 billion from this bill? How many folks knew  that 86 billion was going to states for pension bailout? How many folks knew that the country unemployment is down to 6.2%? We’re 420 billion behind from when the virus started. But 1.9 trillion is being spent.

Finally one trillion from the previous COVID relief programs hasn’t been spent yet.

Thank you President Trump. Out of office and still hitting home runs. 379,000 NEW JOBS

Thank you President Trump. Out of office and still hitting home runs.  379,000 NEW JOBS. As you know, the January Trump report was revised upward to 195,000.  Strict economic lock downs through the winter halted the labor market’s recovery. Didn’t see the numbers on the dead bird picker jobs.

Just think where we would be if our President didn’t encourage lock downs and didn’t go after union workers. So why do a $1.9 trillion stimulus when the numbers show there’s no need.

Nonfarm payrolls were expected to increase by 210,000 in February while the unemployment rate held steady at 6.3%, according to economists surveyed by Dow Jones.

Thank you President Trump. They told you so. Trump and Kudlow said 2021 would be great growth for the economy.

They told you so. Trump and Kudlow said 2021 would be great growth for the economy. Our President told us in 2020 that the rebound would be in 2021. Now of course Biden is doing his best to kill it. Now the Atlanta Fed is projecting a 10% first quarter growth. That comes on the heels of a report Friday showing that personal income surged 10% in January. We have this from our friends over at CNBC.

Manufacturing data Monday showed the sector at its highest growth level since August 2018. That report from the Institute for Supply Management in turn helped confirm the notion among economists that output to start the year is far better than the low single-digit growth many had been predicting back in late 2020.

 Questions persist about whether the $1.9 trillion spending plan from the Biden administration is necessary, at least to that magnitude. An economy poised to show its fastest annual growth pace since at least 1984 doesn’t seem like a very good candidate for more spending at a time when the federal government already is expected to run a $2.3 trillion budget deficit this year.

Way to go Joe. Two weeks in a row with job loss over 800K.

Way to go Joe. Two weeks in a row with job loss over 800K. Joe just can’t resist getting rid of jobs for American workers. Figures released Thursday by the Labor Department show that 861,000 Americans filed first-time jobless claims in the week ended Feb. 13, higher than the 765,000 forecast by Refinitiv economists.

Last week’s figure was revised upward by 55,000 to 848,00, the Labor Department said.  What Trump’s stimulus in December did.

“The jobless benefits passed in the December stimulus package are responsible for lifting more than 7 millions Americans out of poverty in January, but Americans will need strong unemployment benefits to be in place through at least the end of September if they are to weather the storm of the pandemic,”

The man’s clueless. Biden refuses to compromise or work with the Republicans.

The man’s clueless. Biden refuses to compromise or work with the Republicans. The 900 billion dollar stimulus pkg. is still working it’s way through the system. The CBO actually reported that by the middle of this year that the economy will be back. Only thing holding it back are the lock downs. And this is without the new stimulus.

But old Joe has this crazy notion that people out there are dropping like fly’s and the end of the world is in site. How crazy is that? Biden now says there will be no working with the Republicans like promised in Monday’s meeting with the 10 Republicans. This from Crazy Joe

“It is very clear our economy is still in trouble,” Biden said during remarks at the White House. “I know some in Congress think we’ve already done enough to deal with the crisis in the country. Others think that things are getting better and we can afford to sit back and either do little or do nothing at all. That’s not what I see. I see enormous pain in this country. A lot of folks out of work. A lot of folks going hungry.”

SMH.

Donald Trump does going out what he did coming in. Created Jobs and lowered Unemployment.

The man, the myth the legend. Winning.

Donald Trump does going out what he did coming in. Created Jobs and lowered Unemployment. The U.S. economy added 49,000 jobs in January, a modest increase amid the labor market’s ongoing strain from the coronavirus pandemic. The unemployment rate fell to 6.3 percent.

First Trump adds 7 million jobs. Virus hits and 22  million jobs lost. What does he do? Brings back and creates 12 million jobs. Finally lowers unemployment from 15% to 6.3%.

WINNING.

They grow them stupid in Western PA. Democrat Rep. Conor Lamb: Biden’s Job-Killing Environmentalist Agenda Good for Pennsylvania

They grow them stupid in Western PA. Democrat Rep. Conor Lamb: Biden’s Job-Killing Environmentalist Agenda Good for Pennsylvania. How crazy is this? I always thought my congressional rep here in North East Ohio had a lock on stupidity ( Dago Red Tim ).

Congressman Lamb did an interview with the Pittsburgh newspaper. He actually thinks that all those oil companies that are now banned on federal lands will come running to Pennsylvania and frack. From Lamb.

“His policies are overall going to lift demand for labor and grow the economy in that way,” Mr. Lamb said, pointing to Mr. Biden’s “Buy American” executive order this week and his pledges to rebuild infrastructure.

“I’ve always argued that, if anything, that drilling ban helps Western Pennsylvania because we drill on private land here so they’ll be more demand for our gas,” Mr. Lamb added.

First the idea that there’s enough folks that will allow these companies to frack on their land is crazy. Also there are numerous groups who have been trying to ban fracking in Pennsylvania. Here’s what you lose on federal lands cause of the Biden assault on American workers.

Fossil fuel leasing on federal and tribal land, while accounting for nearly a quarter of the country’s annual carbon output, generated $11.7 billion in tax revenue in the 2019 fiscal year, according to the U.S. Department of the Interior, which manages public lands.

The illegitimate one showing his racism again.

The illegitimate one showing his racism again. We saw it throughout the campaign. Joe showing his racism. He’s at it again. Going after Blacks and Latino’s. How you say? Stopping travel from Brazil and South Africa. Remember when Joe attacked President Trump for his bans? What say you?

Betrayal at the highest level.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA - JANUARY 04: President-elect Joe Biden (C) along with democratic candidates for the U.S. Senate Jon Ossoff (L) and Rev. Raphael Warnock (R) greet supporters during a campaign rally the day before their runoff election in the parking lot of Centerparc Stadium January 04, 2021 in Atlanta, Georgia. Biden's trip comes a day after the release of a recording of an hourlong call where President Donald Trump implores Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” the votes he would need to reverse the presidential election outcome in the state.

Betrayal at the highest level. Georgia Voters Enraged After Democrats Promise of ‘$2000 Checks’ Becomes $1400 Under Biden Stimulus Plan. Many in the red districts of Georgia voted for the Democrats cause they were promised $2,000. Not $1,400. This from Media ite.

President-elect Joe Biden released his long-awaited stimulus proposal last Thursday that contained an inauspicious provision for millions of Americans expecting additional $2,000 stimulus checks. Instead of that long-promised amount, Biden’s proposal only calls for an additional $1,400 stimulus payment.

Georgia voters who recently delivered the Democratic Party control of the U.S. Senate by electing Reverend Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff say they feel betrayed, let down, and outraged at what NBC Peacock host Mehdi Hasan has termed “Biden’s first broken campaign promise.”

Oscar Zaro voted for the Democratic Party slate during the recent Senate runoff election. He lives in Hiram, Georgia, just outside of Powder Springs.

A Democratic voter in the typically red 14th Congressional District, which is currently represented by QAnon Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene, Zaro said that Georgians in the 14th were spurred on to vote more Democratic than usual this year due, in part, to the promise of “$2,000 checks” by Warnock and Ossoff.

“The last few weeks heading towards the runoff election, especially after Trump endorsed the $2,000 payments, Warnock and Ossoff made it a point to endorse and exclusively say ‘$2,000 checks,’” he said. “A lot of the people in my district voted blue in the runoff for two main reasons: (1) Loeffler and Perdue denying us relief during COVID while profiting millions themselves; and (2) $2,000 checks.”

“They really underestimate just how much people are hurting economically,” Zaro added, referring to Democrats who he views as reneging on their word.

Democrats on the campaign trail repeatedly referenced “$2,000 checks” during the final stages of the Senate runoffs — immediately seizing upon the populist issue after President Donald Trump threatened to veto the most recent stimulus package, in part, over a professed belief that the $600 payments were not generous enough.

“I don’t know where President Trump has been for the last eight months, while his allies in the U.S. Senate have been blocking this relief,” Ossoff said the same night the 45th president brought the issue to the fore. “Trump is, as ever, erratic and all over the place, but on this point, tonight, he’s right. $600 is a joke. They should send $2,000 checks to the American people right now because people are hurting.”

 

Georgia Democrats have reportedly already begun fuming over their two new senators, the Rev. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff, who were sworn in Wednesday by Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a new report.

Both men narrowly won hard-fought races against Republican incumbents in the Peach State, winning control of the Senate for the Democrats in the process.

But a major issue raised by critics is that President Biden espoused a coronavirus relief plan that would send $1,400 checks to many Americans – while Warnock and Ossoff campaigned on a $2,000 promise.
