[Townhall] This week, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre received backlash over a statement she made that American children "belong to all of us" in the context of access to irreversible gender mutilation treatments and surgeries for kids.
The lady opened her mouth and stupidity fell out, like a fairy tale rain of toads and snakes. It’s what she does.
Jean-Pierre made the remarks last weekend at the 34th annual Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) Media Awards where she spoke with a reporter from Jezebel about restrictions on transgender medical treatments and surgeries.
"I’ve met a lot of parents of trans kids in the past couple of months who have told me these devastating stories, whether they’re in Texas or Oklahoma or wherever they are, saying how they now have to seriously consider leaving their state to protect their child. That’s something that we have to call out and continue to be very clear about. These are kids. These are our kids. They belong to all of us."
Catholic activist organization Catholic Vote claimed that the Biden administration, spearheaded by our "devout Catholic" president, is working to "destroy the role of parents at every turn." This is evident on the issues of abortion and transgenderism.

It was more of an announcement of the completion of the indoctrination project.

Scroll down to the entry with local kids with 3% reading proficiency rates. That's the government's work on display from the Great Society programs on who owns the children. Throw fathers out and you destroy several thousands of years of social evolutionary development for which the government has not been the answer.
[GATEWAYPUNDIT] Arizona GOP Chairman Jeff DeWit was confronted by Kari Lake last night while having dinner and a "business meeting" at a restaurant in Chandler, Arizona.
This was right after Kari Lake’s historic trial challenging the stolen midterm election and Maricopa County’s failed mail-in ballot signature verification. The three-day trial concluded yesterday and the Judge will take the matter under advisement.
What are the odds of this? Kari Lake, her incredible attorneys, and volunteers who helped research and develop Kari Lake’s case are having dinner to celebrate the trial, and Jeff DeWit walks by and sits at the table next to them.
Jeff DeWit and the Arizona GOP under Jeff DeWit have not supported Lake’s lawsuit. There have been no tweets or public support of any kind. He constantly claims he works 80 hours a week and is "too busy" to talk about these issues.
In a February interview with leftist hack Brahm Resnik, Dewit would not answer whether or not Kari Lake won her election and said that he is not interested in "litigating the past." When asked about what went wrong in the last two elections, DeWit responded, "we’re not doing the right things in terms of raising money, registering voters, getting out the and vote and winning elections."
These people are allowing the left to literally STEAL our Country.
However, after the exchange last night, DeWit published what appears to be his first tweet in support of Kari Lake’s lawsuit and election integrity.
He only did this because Kari Lake destroyed him in their conversation.
The Gateway Pundit correspondent Jordan Conradson was invited to the dinner party to discuss the lawsuit with Kari and her team.
When Conradson confronted Dewit, he purported to have no clue that Kari Lake’s historic election lawsuit, which was remanded by the Arizona Supreme Court back to the trial court, was being heard just a few miles from the restaurant. Still, he claimed that election integrity is his top priority.Lake and her attorneys later spoke to DeWit, and he played dumb, acting like he didn’t know what was going on with Lake’s lawsuit or trial because he was too busy to follow along, according to others close to the conversation. One said that Kari Lake "ripped Jeff a new one" for not showing support on Twitter or the AZGOP’s website.
Attorneys Bryan Blehm and Kurt Olsen also spoke to Jeff and urged him to see the importance of this lawsuit. According to bystanders, Kurt Olsen educated DeWit about the significance of ongoing election challenges across the nation. Blehm also urged DeWit to ensure election integrity across the state, including in local GOP races.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, DeWit possibly threatened a lawsuit against the Maricopa County Republican Committee for holding a revote in Legislative District 3 following a corrupt election for leadership positions.
Blehm is seen below with a finger in DeWit’s face, telling him to get serious about supporting fair elections!Hopefully, Jeff DeWit will finally get serious about election integrity in Arizona.

Old report from Phoenix New Times,2016: [DeWit] admits the Democrats will organize against Trump's message, but he contends that they would have done the same for a Cruz nomination, perhaps even more so. DeWit's enthusiasm flies in the face of a recent CNN poll showing Hillary Clinton besting Trump by 13 points in the fall, the persistent #NeverTrump movement, and U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan's recent declaration that he's "not ready" to support Trump.
Note: It appears that DeWit wants to run for the Senate seat held by CS, and Lake does likewise. Thus, the intense rivalry.

[WFB] He used the release to lower gas prices for the midterm elections. Six months into admin's 'replenishment strategy,' Biden has purchased zero reserve barrels
President Joe Biden in December began working to replenish the 180 million barrels he sold last year from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. Nearly six months later, he still has zero barrels to show for it.
Biden's Energy Department on Monday announced its intention to purchase up to three million reserve barrels as a "continuation" of the president's "replenishment strategy." So far, however, that "strategy" has seen the Democrat fail to purchase a single barrel of reserve oil. The administration first tried to purchase three million reserve barrels in December, when Biden kicked off his "plan to replenish the SPR." One month later, Biden's Energy Department revealed it had rejected all offers it received to purchase the oil because those offers "were either too expensive or didn't meet the required specifications."
Republicans have hammered Biden for his management of the reserves, which sit at their lowest levels in four decades after the Democrat last year sold 180 million reserve barrels in an attempt to lower gas prices ahead of a difficult midterm election. While Biden responded by pledging to "refill" the reserves with oil his administration would purchase this year, the Democrat has so far made no progress. If Biden's Energy Department does manage to fulfill its recently announced purchase plan, the oil would be delivered to the reserves in August, meaning Biden would have secured just three million reserve barrels in eight months. At that pace, it would take the Democrat 40 years to procure the 180 million barrels he sold.
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, whose office did not return a request for comment, has confirmed that the administration will be unable to refill the reserve to the levels Biden inherited. "We will begin that process this year, but to refill the full amount is impossible," Granholm admitted in March. For Wyoming's John Barrasso, who serves as the top Republican on the Senate Energy Committee, that answer is unacceptable.
"Joe Biden treats the Strategic Petroleum Reserve like a political piggy bank instead of a critical piece of American energy security," Barrasso told the Washington Free Beacon. "He has no real plan to refill it. America has never been more vulnerable to a true energy emergency because of President Biden."
Facing the "impossible" task of refilling the reserve to its past levels—the stock held 638 million barrels of oil when Biden took office and now holds just 362 million—Biden's Energy Department is now channeling its replenishment efforts toward a more modest goal. The department in May touted its "significant progress toward replenishment," citing its role in canceling congressionally mandated sales that would have seen the department sell 140 million reserve barrels between 2024 and 2027. As a result, the department says, the reserve will be effectively replenished by 2027—not because the barrels Biden sold will have been bought back, but rather because the reserve will save barrels thanks to the canceled sales.
"This cancellation ... will allow the SPR to have the same number of barrels in reserve by the end of FY 2027 that it would have had emergency barrels not been sold in 2022," the department said.
Oil prices sit at $72 a barrel, and the Biden administration hopes to purchase reserve oil at anywhere between $67 to $72 a barrel. Republicans tried to fill the reserve to its capacity in the spring of 2020—when a barrel of oil cost as low as $15—but Senate Democrats blocked the plan, attacking it as a "bailout for big oil."
Biden went on to sell a historic number of reserve barrels in 2022, when the average price for a gallon of gas exceeded $5 in the United States for the first time ever. Millions of those barrels were sent overseas—Biden even sold nearly one million U.S. reserve barrels to a Chinese state-controlled gas giant, the Free Beacon reported last year, a sale that came as America's top adversary scrambled to build up its own stockpile of oil.
The White House aggressively defended that sale, with spokesman Ian Sams accusing Republicans who criticized it of "lying" and "pushing false conspiracies about the president." In January, however, 113 House Democrats backed a GOP measure that barred the United States from selling its oil reserves to China.
Biden's lack of progress on filling the reserve will likely attract additional congressional scrutiny as Republicans express concern that the depleted stockpile hurts America's national security.
"Instead of creating pro-growth energy policies that would make the United States energy independent once again, President Biden has consistently raided the [Strategic Petroleum Reserve] to obtain his long-term Green New Deal climate agenda," Texas Republican congressman Wesley Hunt told the Free Beacon. "Russia and the Ukraine remain engaged in a deadly war while China is saber-rattling against Taiwan. Now is not the time for Joe Biden to be playing fast and loose with our nation's oil reserves."

This is serious. He has to replace the oil reserves in case there's a real emergency next year, like him being behind in the polls in October.

He's consistent at batting zero. Biden could follow Trump's successful policy of opening up the domestic oil and coal resources. Good cure for inflation, good jobs, good economy. If Biden and ideologues twits around him would do something for the country, we'd be a lot better off.

Trump tried to do this a few years ago when oil was a lot cheaper. He was stonewalled by the bureaucrats and the Dems/Ryan/McConnell poo-pooed the idea.
Commentary by Russian military blogger Andrey Chervonets
Biden, during a meeting with Australian Prime Minister Albanese at the G7 summit in Hiroshima, asked journalists to "shut up" after numerous questions about the country's possible default
The default is such a thing that it is better to keep quiet...
The pricks have one hope, to try to hold out until June 15, when tax revenues will go.
And in fact, out of 6 trillion in the federal budget, two trillion annually is a deficit of this budget. Borrowed funds.
The Yankees can no longer live within their means. Without borrowing, they are beggars and rogues.
Moreover, they are rogue even if they continue to borrow as always.
They now have to borrow in ascending order in order to at least hold on to their falling pants. Without this, without borrowing in incremental mode - they are bankrupt and rogue

All that borrowing went to give money to government hacks in exchange for undying voting loyalty to the Democrats + kickbacks in the form of campaign contributions from union dues.
75% of nonmilitary public employees in this country (all levels of government combined) are unnecessary. Almost 100% of them are also overpaid relative to the actual value of what they do.
Absent this situation we would be fine.
The political class and the public both have never figured out that the WWII peace dividend was kaput in1975. They want to keep living like it will never end. Half a century later we are insolvent.
