“He spent enough money on steak and cigars to buy a new house in New Jersey,” New Jersey political consultant Bill Cortese said of the money spent. “It’s the best lobbyist-funded lifestyle money can buy.”
The New Jersey senator charged donors of his Senate campaign committee and his New Millennium Leadership PAC for the bills, the …

No Comments on Biden Shuffles Away After An Awkward 10 Minutes

Joe Biden mumbled through remarks on the “American Rescue Plan” after Senate Democrats passed the massive $1.9 trillion bill without one Republican vote.

Democrat Senators on Saturday went around Republicans by passing the bill through budget reconciliation, a process that requires only a simple majority vote.

Joe Biden praised Schumer and took credit for helping the senate break the log-jam that led to a “vote-a-rama.”

Glassy-eyed Biden blathered on for about 10 minutes before shuffling away from the lectern.

As usual, Joe Biden shuffled away and ignored reporters shouting questions as the White House cut the feed.

An enormous swirling “space hurricane” floated high above the Earth for about 8 hours before dissipating, a new study contends.
Scientists, who released the study last week, said it was the first time such a phenomenon has been observed and said that instead of pouring water, the space hurricane was “raining electrons.” The storm occurred in 2014 and was captured by satellites, although its existence was only uncovered during recent retrospective analysis by scientists.

For the first …

By Grazie Pozo Christie for RealClearPolitics
Medical professionals on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic desperately need reinforcements. That’s why President Biden, in his “American Rescue Plan,” proposes enough funding to triple the number of community health care workers.
But if the administration doesn’t have a clear policy of enforcing longstanding conscience protections for health care providers, it will jeopardize their ability to recruit the talent we need to defeat the coronavirus.
Religious health care providers have a robust and lengthy history of providing quality care to people from all walks of life.
Here at home, they have been on the front lines of the COVID pandemic, serving vulnerable populations such as the homeless and prisoners suffering from HIV, and they care …

No Comments on Dems To Move $120 Million From Police To Black Communities

Usually, when San Francisco is in the news, it has something to do with the city being covered in human excrement or dealing with mass homelessness under the dutiful watch of their Democrat representatives.

But the bad news coming out of the California city is a little different this week.

According to Fox News, San Francisco Democrat Mayor London Breed is moving forward with a plan to take $120 million from the city’s law enforcement funding and give it to Black communities.

Ivy League University Offers Rock Climbing Class — No White Students Allowed

No Comments on Ivy League University Offers Rock Climbing Class — No White Students Allowed

Cornell University was offering a racially-segregated rock climbing class for their students physical education — but no white students allowed.

The physical education class, “BIPOC Rock Climbing,” was originally slated to be restricted to “people who identify as Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, or other people of color.”

After Campus Reform reached out the university for comment about the discrimination, the course description was edited to state that the class is “designed to enable Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, or other people of color underrepresented in the sport of rock climbing to learn the sport and to feel included and supported.”
