I thought you were talking dinner and a movie.

hey, that’s my favorite method, and I was woman enough to admit it! It’s no where as good to lick plastic gloves as it is your fingers! Colonel Sanders even knew that!

I was wondering when someone would post that.

Biden Admin Eyes Virginia Military Base To Handle Flood Of Migrant Children

The Biden administration is looking at using Fort Lee, a Virginia Army base, as a site to house a surge in unaccompanied migrant children, according to Reuters, citing at US Department of Health and Human services (HHS) notice and confirmed by a Pentagon spokesman.

In the notice, HHS said it urgently needs to find more shelter space for unaccompanied minors. The department said it must “aggressively” find solutions for the rising number of children entering the country amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

This, after Homeland Security Director Alejandro Mayorkas confidently said on Monday there was no crisis at the southern border following reports that the Biden administration was reopening a Trump-era overflow facility in an effort to handle the surge in child migrants.

The following day, Axios reported that a Tuesday afternoon briefing prepared for President Biden “outlines the need for 20,000 beds to shelter an expected crush of child migrants crossing the US-Mexico border.”

Biden was reportedly told that the number of migrant kids is on pace to exceed the “all-time record by 45%,” and the administration doesn’t have enough beds.

Axios also reported on Thursday that a leaked HHS document describes how the Biden administration is being ‘overwhelmed’ by child migrants.

Driving the news: In the week ending March 1, the Border Patrol referred to HHS custody an average of 321 children per day, according to documents obtained by Axios. That’s up from a weekly average of 203 in late January and early February — and just 47 per day during the first week of January.

Meanwhile, in order to expedite the transfer of children out of federal custody, the Biden administration plans to end a Trump-era requirement that sponsors be strictly vetted to avoid human trafficking and other crimes. Critics claim that vetting sponsors has a ‘chilling effect’ on their willingness to open their homes to migrant children

So, no more vetting sponsors. Open season for gang members and pedophiles.

Biden Says He’ll Agree To Curb War Powers Amid Bipartisan Anger Over Syria Strikes

The White House announced Friday that President Biden intends to attempt to reign in the ability of US Presidents to launch new ‘open-ended’ foreign wars by working with Congress in repealing war authorizations which have given the executive immense unilateral power since 9/11. However, it’s clearly in reality an attempt at after-the-fact PR damage control.

Politico cited a statement it received from press secretary Jen Psaki, who said the admin will “ensure that the authorizations for the use of military force currently on the books are replaced with a narrow and specific framework that will ensure we can protect Americans from terrorist threats while ending the forever wars.”

Ironically, the announcement comes just a week after Biden ordered airstrikes on eastern Syria on the night of Feb.25, which cited some of the very war authorizations the White House is now claiming to be against. The strikes which were ostensibly in ‘retaliation’ against Iranian militias were immediately met with deep criticism and suspicion among a sizeable segment of the American population, and outrage in Congress over lack of authorization.

So while Psaki and the White House are perhaps suddenly noticing the popularity of condemning the forever wars, Americans are rightly worried that Biden’s actions in Syria and Iraq will take us back into a renewed regime change war quagmire in Syria (which to a large degree is already a reality given the US military occupation of Syria’s Deir Ezzor and Hasakeh).

It comes just two days after a bipartisan group of senators, led by Tim Kaine (D-Va.) and Todd Young (R-Ind.), introduced a bill to repeal the 2002 Authorization for the Use of Military Force and one passed in 1991 ahead of the first Iraq War.”

...the inmates are running the asylum. Trump had the best foreign policies. Biden telling foreign leaders that America is back is so stupid. I guess what he means is America is back to being stupid.

Supreme Court Dismisses “Sanctuary City” Cases At Request Of Biden’s DOJ

The Supreme Court has dismissed three pending requests to hear challenges to the Trump administration’s order to withhold millions of dollars in law enforcement funds from so-called sanctuary jurisdictions—states and cities that refuse to cooperate with Department of Homeland Security efforts to deport people residing in the United States illegally.

“After a request from the Biden administration yesterday, the Supreme Court just dismissed three pending cert petitions (requests to hear a case) about the Trump administration’s effort to withhold money from so-called sanctuary cities,” the SCOTUSblog Twitter account noted.

I hope no one shows up.

If you’re home alone, who cares? Maybe I should write a guide, “Enjoy Single Life Without Leaving the House”.

I believe even Bernie said it wasn’t a good idea to raise it while there are still lockdowns.

Thumbs down like McCain? Arizona thing?

And the cost of living varies greatly in different areas.

makes sense.

several years ago.

I bought two of my grandsons “Huckleberry Finn” and “Tom Sawyer” in original form years ago. When they changed those books, I told several people that when I read them as a child, it made me realize how bad racism was.
