If Biden is ousted, it won't be through impeachment. He'll come down with an illness and have to step aside. That's how dems operates and he has said it himself.

I was almost certain this was going to happen, but now I'm thinking they're gonna drag this out till he dies because he's the perfect puppet who signs anything they put in his desk.
Him being the perfect puppet makes him the perfect fall man to.
"He" can do anything, no matter how awful. Then his handlers go "it wasn't us!" and "sure is a shame biden did it... oh well. lets move on in this brave new world"

Presidenziali Usa 2024: perché i Democratici non dovrebbero ricandidare Joe Biden - MilanoFinanza News

You know it does look bad when a globalist capitalist finance weekly from Italy which is an historicàlly neoliberal bootlicking newspaper is telling that maybe Sleepy Joe might not be the best candidate despite "a growing economy" (here's the economical bootlicking pàrt).

Tutte le tappe del "Cafè Milano-gate" di Biden

For a few too many seconds I thought Biden was headed for Milano, Italy, that unsafe cesspool of progressiveness that is the financial capital of Italy. Why it is relevant ? Well unfortunatly I have to pass to that city one of too many times... and I the city is already unsafe on its own, with Biden probably it could potentially get worse.

DHS Awards $20 Million To Program That Flags Americans As Potential "Extremists" For Their Online Speech

The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has awarded 34 grants to as many organizations, worth a total of $20 million, whose role will be to undergo training in order to flag potential online "extremist" speech of Americans.

The money will be spent from the Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention (TVTP) grant program for fiscal year 2023, while the recipients include police, mental health providers, universities, churches and school districts.

According to DHS, this program (administered by its Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships, CP3, and for some reason, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA) is the only federal one of its kind whose goal is "helping local communities develop and strengthen their capabilities in combating targeted violence and terrorism."

Those given the money from the grants fund are expected to develop prevention programming at the community level that would stop "targeted violence and terrorism," as well as come up with innovative prevention ideas, and "identify prevention best practices that can be replicated in communities nationwide."

In announcing and explaining the need for such spending, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas cited the Jacksonville shooting. As he remarked while justifying the awarding of grants, the event was racially motivated, and – "[it] made painfully clear, targeted violence and terrorism can impact any community, anywhere."

DHS claims that the "current" environment is one of heightened – and lethal – threat, based on ideology or personal grievances of "lone offenders and small groups."

The DHS announcement came on the anniversary of 9/11, but it showed that the focus is now on Americans rather than some foreign terrorist threat (or even foreign terrorist gangs in the habit of "invading" US soil).

And the way the terrorist threat is defined here looks more like a drive to suppress dissent to dominant narratives pushed by the government and large traditional and social media who work in concert with the federal authorities.

Specifically, what opponents of such policy single out as possible reasons to be branded a violent extremists or (domestic) terrorist could be disagreeing, and expressing that opinion online on anything from Covid, vaccines, gun rights, gender and LGBTQ policies, the war in Ukraine, or immigration.

He's Back: Zelensky Inbound for (Another) Washington Visit as Congress Debates $24+ Billion in Ukraine Aid


The White House and Capitol Hill can expect a visit from Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky next week as the latest aid package worth upwards of $24 billion is debated in Congress.

Zelensky will be in Washington, DC, as a side visit during the United Nations General Assembly. He arrives on the back of a poll that found a majority of Americans oppose sending more aid to Ukraine.

AP reports an administration official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the visit, said Zelensky will meet with President Joe Biden at the White House next Thursday.

The trip to the Capitol was confirmed by two congressional aides granted anonymity to discuss the plans, the report sets out.

Congress is split over providing the additional funding for Ukraine as the Russian invasion rolls into its second year with no sign of peace talks being heralded by either side.

Biden has sought a package of $13.1 billion in additional military aid for Ukraine and $8.5 billion for humanitarian support. It also includes $2.3 billion for financing and to catalyze donors through the World Bank, AP notes.

Zelensky was last in D.C. less than 12 months ago on a trip that included a 20-minute address to a special joint session of Congress.

On that occasion Biden emptied his schedule to welcome the visitor at the White House, as Breitbart News reported.

The president has taken pride in his unfailing support for Ukraine after Russia invaded, rallying American allies to their cause.

"The idea that Putin is ever going to defeat Ukraine is beyond comprehension," Biden said earlier last December after meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron to discuss the ongoing conflict.

Congress is working to pass its annual appropriations bills before a Sept. 30 deadline to keep the U.S. government running.



House Conservatives Object to $24 Billion Ukraine Aid Request: Americans 'Tired' of Endless Wars


House conservatives objected to President Joe Biden's latest Ukraine aid proposal, contending that it would only continue America's proxy war against Russia.

The House conservatives, led by Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH), sent a letter, which was obtained by Breitbart News, to Biden on Friday, condemning Biden's request for $40 billion in supplemental funding, $24 billion of which will go to Ukraine.

"This request exacerbates your administration's out-of-control deficit spending and circumvents the bipartisan debt ceiling agreement," the House conservatives wrote. "Americans are tired of funding endless wars and want policies that not only help restore fiscal sanity in Washington, but also put America and American citizens first."

The Republicans asked that the Biden administration provide Congress with its "comprehensive strategy and mission for U.S. involvement in Ukraine." They said without a formal strategy, "there is no way to develop clear objectives, allocate the proper resources, conduct rigorous oversight, or hold officials accountable for success or failure."

The House conservatives also contended that the supplemental appropriations bill would circumvent the spending caps stipulated in the Fiscal Responsibility Act, or the debt ceiling deal:

By requesting a supplemental appropriations package, you are putting the U.S. on a path toward a government shutdown by violating the debt ceiling agreement. On June 3, 2023, you signed into law the Fiscal Responsibility Act, which suspended the debt ceiling through January 1, 2025. In addition, this law established new discretionary spending limits for the next two fiscal years. For FY2024, these spending caps were set at $886 billion for national defense and $704 billion for nondefense programs. You cannot bypass the law you just signed. This request should have been included in the President's FY24 Budget Request and put through the traditional appropriations process.
Reps. Davidson, Ralph Norman (R-SC), Greg Steube (R-FL), Randy Weber (R-TX), Clay Higgins (R-LA), Scott Perry (R-PA), Tom McClintock (R-CA), Eli Crane (R-AZ), Andy Ogles (R-TN), Jeff Duncan (R-SC), Matt Gaetz (R-FL), and Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) signed onto the letter.

House conservatives are not the only Republicans to oppose a blank check to Biden for more Ukraine aid.

A spokesperson for Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said in a written statement, "A Republican-led House will not rubber-stamp any blank-check funding requests; rather, the administration's emergency funding requests must be reviewed and scrutinized on their merits consistent with the practice and principles of our majority."

One senior House Republican told Axios that a standalone Ukraine bill would be an "absolute disaster" for Republicans.

A poll released last week found a majority of Americans oppose sending more aid to Ukraine.

"Congressional support for Ukraine must be based, like any matter of foreign policy, on what serves the interests of all Americans. To uphold this responsibility, Congress should reject any requests for additional Ukraine funding unless conservatives' minimum requirements are met," Heritage Action Acting Executive Director Ryan Walker said in a statement Thursday.

Walker told Breitbart News this week any additional aid to Ukraine must come with an accounting of the previous $113 billion in aid, the funds must not be attached to a must-pass bill, and the administration has to lay out a strategy for Ukraine.

Joe Biden Tries to Sneak Provision into Budget that would Eliminate ICE Agents and Excuse Criminal Illegals
Joe Biden has slipped a provision into the budget now being debated in Congress that would defund Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and give criminal illegals a free hand to commit as many crimes as they want free of being rounded up and deported.

This is one of the most radical, pro-crime moves he has yet made in the White House, Fox News reports.

Biden is urging congress to pass a short-term budget bill to avoid a government shut down. But the bill he and the Democrats are pushing has what SHOULD be a poison pill in it for ANY pro-American legislator.


A look at page 51 of the Democrats' bill reveals a shocking provision that turns ICE from a law enforcement agency into a social services department that helps facilitate travel and support for illegal aliens.

Instead of working to round up and deport illegals accused of crimes, ICE would be turned into an agency helping resettle these same criminals inside the U.S.A.

Indeed, the provision would take ICE's budget and hand it over to so-called "sanctuary cities" to help them pay for housing for criminal illegals.

Per Fox News:

If you read page 51 of the White House's draft legislation, you will find a provision that would allow all ICE funding to be redirected to "fund community-based residential facilities, and to provide services and support to refugees, asylum seekers, or other migrants," including through "contracts or through the award of grants or cooperative agreements to non-governmental organizations." This would effectively convert ICE from a law enforcement agency into a U.S. travel agency for illegal aliens and into a grant-making bureaucracy for sanctuary cities.
Remember, ICE is the agency that breaks up Mexico-U.S. cartel trafficking of humans and drugs. ICE is the agency that detains violent criminal aliens and returns them to their home countries. ICE is the agency that does the most to deter cross-border crime and illegal immigration by enforcing immigration law in the United States.
Instead of protecting American communities, this provision would allow all past, present, or future ICE dollars to be used to buy airplane tickets and hotel rooms for illegal immigrants as they are permanently resettled across the United States. Airplane tickets that ICE had been buying to return violent criminal aliens to their home countries will be converted into airplane tickets to fly them to a community near you.
Biden's scheme would also specifically allow ICE's remaining resources to be sent to sanctuary cities for resettlement. These ICE taxpayer dollars will only add to the $104.6 million mountain of federal funds that New York Sen. Chuck Schumer and New York Congressman Hakeem Jeffries slipped in earlier this year for New York City Mayor Eric Adams to resettle illegal aliens.


Joe Biden is looking to aide and abet criminal illegals. It's just that simple.

If this provision gets enacted, all it will do is make all our cities less safe and act as a beacon telling millions more illegals to come here, especially those who want to deal drugs, and commit robberies, murders, and rapes.

"Gloves Are Off, Families Are On" – David Brock Threatens to Target the Children of GOP Members Investigating Hunter Biden


As the walls close in on the Biden Crime Family, Democrats are starting to resort to desperate tactics to save them. One prominent leftist operative going to the extreme and looking at hitting Republicans close to home.

Tara Palmeri of Puck News reported last Friday that David Brock will be launching a personal investigation into family members of Republican lawmakers, looking for any instances where they may have benefited from that member's position.

"Gloves are off, Families are on," Brock said to Palmeri.
Brock is specifically looking at targeting the children of these Republican congressional members.

We've been looking into how the children of those same members may have benefited from their parents' position. We're not shy about going after the members
.
One interesting fact about Brock is that he started as a conservative reporter before flipping to the Democratic Party in the mid-1990s. He was also described by former Center for American Progress president Neera Tanden, who is currently a top Biden aide, of being "bats*** crazy" back in 2015.

Brock is a vicious smear merchant who has led numerous efforts to destroy patriotic Americans and prominent conservative voices. Brock's 65 Project has filed over 40 ethics complaints against conservative attorneys who defended President Trump.

Palmeri notes that Facts First, Brock's Super PAC, has been the primary communications outlet to defend Hunter in the GOP inquiries and likely Biden impeachment.

The spokesperson for the Super Pac told Fox News Thursday they are about to spill the beans on a GOP leadership member's family.

This work has been ongoing, and we will soon have more to share publicly about a key member of Republican leadership whose family has gotten multiple jobs from their Congressional donors.
If people want to investigate the Biden family, then what's good for the goose is good for gander. But no one should feel intimidated if they aren't doing anything improper.

Republicans not surprisingly had some pointed responses to Brock's threats and vowed not to be intimidated.

"Nothing says desperation like threatening to sic a smear merchant on innocent families. This is all you need to know about how worried Democrats and the White House are about having to answer for Joe Biden's culture of corruption," Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) told Fox News.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) told the outlet that "the far left and their radical outside allies are desperately trying to cover up and distract from Joe Biden's illegal corruption."

We will soon see if Republicans hold firm or they roll over in the face of the upcoming Democrat onslaught, especially following today's indictment of Hunter Biden which Cristina Laila reported on. History shows they tend to fold.

Major Tripwire – Homeland Security Publishes Guidance for Using Artificial Intelligence as Tool for Surveillance, Monitoring and Tracking of American Citizens


You might ask, why is the Dept of Homeland Security (DHS) in the business of conducting widescale surveillance, monitoring and tracking of American citizens.

Unfortunately, if you are asking that question, then you likely don't know the first, fourth and fifth amendment to the U.S. constitution were usurped by the 2001 Patriot Act.

George W Bush and Dick Cheney created the domestic surveillance system under the auspices of DHS and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. Barack Obama and Joe Biden then took that DHS surveillance system and modified the dials (Justice Dept., FBI) so the surveillance only applied to their ideological enemies.

If you have followed my outlines on this issue [Category Here], you will note exactly where this latest development falls on the continuum. The 2024 election is right around the corner. Previously I stated the artificial intelligence (AI) component to the internet surveilllance system was going to launch toward the end of this year. Well, DHS has just announced exactly that [SEE HERE].

I find it very interesting the DHS memo was issued on August 8th, but only published for the general public yesterday. July and August were when I first identified AI spider crawls were already underway. Pay very, very close attention to the two underlined words in the following paragraph:




Take out the word "improper" and the admission is, DHS uses AI to profile, target and discriminate. In the second sentence, DHS currently participates in systemic, indiscriminate and/or large-scale monitoring, surveillance, or tracking of individuals. The only thing those sentences in the paragraph say, is that DHS will not allow AI to create improper outcomes within a system they outline that already exists.

Stop and reread that last sentence as much as needed. Inasmuch as this DHS guidance is telling us the rules for Homeland Security (DHS) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) as they use AI, they are also outlining what current processes of surveillance would be enhanced by it.

DHS' AI task force is coordinating with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency on how the department can partner with critical infrastructure organizations "on safeguarding their uses of AI and strengthening their cybersecurity practices writ large to defend against evolving threats."

What are those critical infrastructure organizations? They include voting systems. Who or what are those evolving threats? You!



Federal News Network – […] The report also recommends DHS encourage pursing off-the-shelf commercial solutions instead of "building everything in-house."

Mayorkas emphasized the need for DHS to adopt AI quickly, regardless of whether it's commercially acquired or internally developed technology.

"We have got to change the procurement capabilities of a government agency to actually move quickly and nimbly, so that when we're dealing in a very dynamic environment, we can actually move with dynamism," Mayorkas said. "I'm not suggesting moving to a sole source model, but we just have to be quick."

He also stressed the need for DHS to prioritize where it will use AI, rather than attempting to adopt it across every mission and use case. The report points to combatting both fentanyl and human trafficking as use cases that could be "accelerated and championed" across DHS. But it also suggests DHS "integrate AI/ML into as many areas of the DHS mission as possible."

"We're going to need to prioritize what aspect of our mission should we really double down on to harness AI because I worry about diluting our focus too much," Mayorkas said. "And I really do want to demonstrate, as quickly as is responsible, how this could really be a game changer for us in advancing our mission . . . we have to pick our spots here, in my view, somewhat surgically." (more)


Notice the emphasis on speed. Get this AI system launched into DHS surveillance, tracking and monitoring systems as quickly as possible.

Now do you see my point about how radical and fast everything is going to change? It's the 2024 election targeting.

Remember, the Dept of Defense (DoD) will now conduct online monitoring operations, using enhanced AI to protect the U.S. internet from "disinformation" under the auspices of national security. {link}

I share this information with you so that you understand what is being constructed and what is about to be deployed on a large scale throughout the U.S. internet operating system. The U.S. internet will be different. The social media restrictions became more prevalent and noticeable in the past several years; now it is time for DHS to expand that process to the entire U.S. internet.

When I wrote about Jack's Magic Coffee shop, people initially thought I was crazy – but the guys inside the coffee shop didn't. Eventually DHS control over Twitter was revealed in the Twitter files. The same background is true here. The entire American online apparatus is going to change, quite soon.

I'm alone out here, but I'm not wrong.

More will follow….
