    (We) are allowing 545 people to keep us at each others throats as they have for so many years..best of luck to you as well.

    Just a snippet of many...

    In fact, some rioters seemed annoyed that antifa was getting the credit for the Capitol attack, and they took to social media to say so.

    "Listen up: I hear so many reports of 'Antifa' was storming the capital [sic] building. Know that every single person who believes that narrative have been DUPED AGAIN!" Ryan Taylor Nichols, a Marine Corps veteran charged in the attack, posted on Facebook on Jan. 7, according to court documents. "Sure, there may have been some 'Antifa' in DC, but there wasn't enough to 'Storm the Capital' [sic] themselves."

    Court documents show another man charged in the riot, Brandon Straka, wrote on Twitter on Jan. 6: "It was not Antifa at the Capitol. It was freedom loving Patriots who were DESPERATE to fight for the final hope of our Republic."

    Jonathan Gennaro Mellis, charged with assault for allegedly trying to stab police officers with a large stick, put it simply on Facebook: "Don't you dare try to tell me that people are blaming this on antifa and BLM. We proudly take responsibility for storming the Castle."

    Oh my! If it’s on Facebook and Twitter it must be true.

    It took these guys to bring the evidence.  What have the other side brought over to prove it wrong...zilt, zero, nada evidence. So make fun, mock them all you want, "good" will persevere.

    The other side brought warnings to the states about conducting election audits. Why? What are they afraid will be found? Oh yeah, Trump won!

    It always cracks me up when people such as yourself talk all kinds of smack then drop the mic and say they don't want a response....pretty one sided, don't you think?  And your avatar says you're from down in LA....another chap from that neighborhood used to do the same thing to me.  ;)

    • Biden on Thursday gave his first solo news conference as president.

    • He fielded questions on voting rights, foreign policy, immigration, and his plans for 2024.

    • Scroll down for seven key takeaways from the presser.

    • See more stories on Insider's business page.

    Reporters on Thursday grilled President Joe Biden on a variety of issues when he gave his first solo news conference since taking office. He fielded questions on issues such as immigration, foreign policy, voting rights, the filibuster, and his plans for 2024.

    He also gave updates on his administration's COVID-19 response, vaccine distribution, and the economy.

    Until Thursday, Biden had mainly interacted with the media by taking part in cable-news interviews and briefly answering questions after public appearances.

     

    Here are seven key takeaways from Biden's first news conference as president.

    Biden says he plans to run again in 2024

    The president said he expected to run again in 2024 with Vice President Kamala Harris on the ticket.

    "The answer is yes. My plan is to run for reelection. That's my expectation," Biden said before adding that he could not know for certain. "I'm a great respecter of fate."

    Biden also scoffed at the idea of facing Trump as his GOP challenger in 2024. "I have no idea if there will be a Republican Party," he said.

    The president ups vaccine goal to 200 million vaccinations in first 100 days

    At the top of the briefing, Biden set a new goal of the US administering 200 million COVID-19 vaccine doses by his 100th day in office. Initially, the president planned to hit 100 million vaccine shots within that time frame, but the country surpassed that milestone last week.

    The US had administered over 133 million vaccine doses as of Thursday, according to data compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. About 2.5 million doses are administered a day, The New York Times reported. At that pace, Biden is on track to fulfill his new objective by April 30, his 100th day in office.

    More than 100 million stimulus checks have gone out, and 'millions more will be getting their money very soon'

    Biden said more than 100 million stimulus checks worth $1,400 had gone out. The checks were included in the $1.9 trillion coronavirus rescue package, known as the American Rescue Plan, that he signed into law earlier this month.

    "Millions more will be getting their money very soon," he added.

    Biden reacts to surge of migrants at the US-Mexico border

    The president faced several questions about the recent surge of unaccompanied children at the southern border. He said the increase was not because he may be considered more welcoming to immigrants than former President Donald Trump but because of the weather.

    Biden also blamed the hard-line immigration policies imposed by Trump and the dire living conditions of the home countries that people are fleeing from.

    "I like to think it's because I'm a nice guy, but it's not. It's happened every year," Biden said. "The reason they're coming is it's the time they can travel with the least likelihood of dying because of the heat in the desert."

    Biden skewers GOP-backed efforts to restrict voting registration as 'sick' and 'un-American'

    Biden called the dozens of Republican-led bills that would restrict voting that are circulating in state legislatures "despicable," "sick," and "un-American."

    "This makes Jim Crow look like Jim Eagle," Biden said. "This is gigantic, what they're trying to do. It cannot be sustained."

    The president said his goal was for Congress to approve the For the People Act, a Democratic-sponsored bill dedicated to voting-rights reform, which passed the House on March 3.

    The president agrees the filibuster is a 'relic of the Jim Crow era'

    CNN's Kaitlan Collins pointed out that former President Barack Obama said last year that the filibuster was a "relic of the Jim Crow era" and asked Biden if he agreed with the assessment.

    "Yes," Biden said.

    "Why not abolish it, if it's a relic of the Jim Crow era?" Collins asked.

    Biden replied, "Successful electoral politics is the art of the possible. Let's figure out how we can get this done and move in the direction of significantly changing the abuse of even the filibuster rule first. It's been abused from the time it came into being by an extreme way in the last 20 years. Let's deal with the abuse first."

    "You're moving closer to eliminating the filibuster. Is that correct?" Collins asked.

    "I answered your question," the president said.

    Biden 'can't picture' US troops being in Afghanistan next year

    Reporters pressed the president on whether the administration would meet the May 1 deadline that President Trump's administration agreed to.

    "We will leave," Biden said. "The question is when we will leave." Asked if he expected US troops to be in Afghanistan next year, he said, "I can't picture that being the case."

    “I have no idea if there will be a Republican Party”. Is this what you stand for? Silencing the conservative voice? How many of us will be locked up or die while you look on as the Constitution and independence of this great nation is destroyed. Where will you stand then? Don’t bother to respond as nothing you say will change what I think of you and I don’t give a damn what you think of me.

    PRESIDENT TRUMP 

    AQUITED

    AGAIN

     

    :lmao::flagsmiley:Just for the lefties that actually thought he would be:flagsmiley::lmao:

    convicted

     

     

     

    The vote ended 57 – 43 in the United States Senate following a day of drama surrounding witnesses in the U.S. Capitol, meaning the Democrat House impeachment managers failed in their bid to have the former President stripped of his right to run again in 2024.

     

    An impeachment trial requires a two-thirds vote to pass.

    Anti-Trump Republicans such as Richard Burr, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Mitt Romney, and Ben Sasse all voted guilty.

    One semi-surprise vote to find President Trump guilty was Republican Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, who had hinted at such a change in his thinking earlier this week.

    Following on from the morning’s confusion – where Democrats first claimed they wanted to drag the trial on for weeks by calling witnesses – the House impeachment managers quickly changed tactics again and rushed towards a vote on the Senate floor this afternoon.

     

     

    Cassidy is done in Louisiana! Signed recall petition yesterday.

    No matter what happens tomorrow, remember that God is in control. Keep your mind and your heart focused on Him! As a conservative and a Christian, I know the coming years could be filled with oppression and persecution. It will be a time to suit up with the full Armor of God. I pray that you and the DVet family will be filled with peace in the coming days, weeks, months. God Bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻

  7. I deleted my FB account back in October. While I miss keeping up with family and friends and the daily events at the small animal rescue where I volunteer, I do not regret taking this step. MeWe is an alternative and is growing significantly from those departing FB. Although their platform is not as good, they don’t censor. For Twitter users, the alternatives are Parler and Rumble.
