Let’s go over Joe Biden’s trip to Europe this weekend.
And Joe Biden is replacing the failed Build Back Better bill with the more expensive Making a Better America bill. Let’s go over it.
Time for the 25th Amendment
Joe Biden went to Spain and Poland to try to clean up Kamala Harris’ mess. Not only did he not clean it up but he made it worse. All his planned speeches went well. But when he went off script, he made a mess of things.
His first gaff came on Friday during a press conference. The gal who asked the question about what the United States would do if Russia used chemical and biological weapons:
Oops. He just told Russia that NATO would respond by using chemical and biological weapons. This is something nobody in NATO wants. The White House released a statement later in the day stating that neither the United States nor NATO have the intention of using any type of weapon of mass destruction.
That won’t be the last time I say that.
Then Joe Biden got really angry and started yelling at reporters. Here, he was asked what he thought about the sanctions failing.
Couple of things here:
- Everyone in the Biden administration including Biden himself said these sanctions were for deterrence. He said that himself. He’s lying.
- Him being angry at being asked why his sanctioned failed just magnifies his sanctions have failed.
- He is right that sanctions typically do not work well as a deterrent. But then he should not state that they are suppose to be a deterrent.
- And he did something that he really needs to stop doing and that’s calling Putin names. On this trip, he called him a murderer and brute.
- Trump got a lot of crap for being too friendly to tyrants but he did this for a reason. It is far easier to negotiate with someone you’ve complimented than someone you’re insulting.
Here he is talking to an American Air Bourne battalion in Poland. He told them that they were going to see some horrible things when they get to Ukraine.
Again, Neither the U.S. or NATO forces will be going to Ukraine, nor should they. Of course, the White House walked that back too.
Here is Joe Biden being asked a question of what he thinks about Vlad Putin by a reporter:
“He’s a butcher”. What does that exactly accomplish? Does that sound particularly diplomatic?
All we hear from this administration is how much diplomatic experience Joe Biden has. Far more than Trump. But he has the diplomacy of an 8th grade bully on the school yard.
On Sunday, he held a speech in Warsaw, Poland. It was a good speech. He sounded lucid and his words were powerful. It was a well-written speech. But, at the end, he went off script and said what he thought.
The speech, which was a good speech, was all forgotten because Biden seemed to be saying that Vlad Putin needed to be overthrown and there needs to be regime change. That is what the headlines said after the speech. This plays right into Putin’s hands because he has been telling his people that the reason Russia is attacking Ukraine is because NATO wants to overthrow the Russian government.
Guess what? Biden just gave Putin a sound bite.
I know Biden isn’t running things.
I’m Glad I Waited
One of the reasons I like being late on stories is because new things come up. New things came up in this one.
President Joe Biden appeared to be unaware that his surrogates had spent a fair amount of time cleaning up or walking back things he said while in Europe to bolster allies and discuss the next moves with regard to Ukraine. There is some great comms in this administration.
Peter Doocy cornered the President again. What was Biden’s answer:
Don’t believe you lying ears. It never happened. Problem old Joe has is it did happen. So what does this mean? Do we have policy change that says we are after overthrowing Putin and bombing the crap out of Russia with chemical weapons or not? Or is he telling Doocy that he never said that and he’s actually walking what he said back now and we just didn’t know it? Or, maybe, old Joe doesn’t remember any of it?
It’s really time for the 25th Amendment and let old Joe to pasture.

Is He Kidding
Speaking of old Joe, he found his pen and is ready to write some policy that will make life miserable for everyone. Let’s go over it some of the things he’s doing.
This Guy Doesn’t Get It
President Joe Biden unveiled his budget plan for fiscal year 2023 on Monday, claiming that the $5.8 trillion dollar proposal would slash the federal deficit and “build a better America.”
Biden said in a statement:
“Budgets are statements of values, and the budget I am releasing today sends a clear message that we value fiscal responsibility, safety and security at home and around the world, and the investments needed to continue our equitable growth and build a better America.”
Further in the statement:
Biden claimed that his administration was “on track to reduce the federal deficit by more than $1.3 trillion this year, cutting in half the deficit from the last year of the previous Administration and delivering the largest one-year reduction in the deficit in U.S. history.” Biden added that his budget proposal would continue that progress by reducing the deficit further and supporting economic growth, while “ensuring that billionaires and large corporations pay their fair share.”
The budget proposal includes:
- $813 billion in defense and national security spending.
- $773 in spending specifically for the Department of Defense.
- It also includes an extra $1 billion in additional funding for aid to Ukraine and $6.9 billion for the European Defense Initiative and NATO to support their efforts to counter Russian aggression.
- $30 billion in federal funding to state and local law enforcement.
- $360 to the Department of Justice for police reform, investigate hate crimes and protect voting rights.
- $1.7 billion to fund a “firearm trafficking strike force” under the Department of Justice.
- It gives the Department of Health and Human Services $81.7 billion and the CDC another $9.9 billion to prepare for future pandemics.
- $3.3 billion for clean energy projects.
- $18 billion for “climate resilience.”
- Then there are other things like:
- Affordable housing.
- Anti-gun violence programs.
- Manufacturing investments.
That’s just what we know of right now. With the return of earmarks, you know there is a lot of crap in this bill. I just gave you a little over a trillion dollars of line items. What is in the rest of the bill? I’ve got another question: How is dumping another six trillion going to ease inflation?
How’s old Joe going to pay for this?
- The bill also contains the reported “Billionaire Minimum Income Tax” establishing a 20% minimum tax on households worth over $100 million, including both wages and other income like unrealized gains.
- It also includes an increase in the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28%.
Here’s the deal, this bill is the Build Better Back bill with support for cops. So it will actually have a tougher time getting through Congress and is still not supported by Joe Manchin or Kyrsten Sinema.
One of the things we are going to have to discuss in the future is Modern Monetary Theory because Joe Biden buys this globalist philosophy and this bill will not lower the budget at all.
We Could Give Tax Money to Our Companies
President Joe Biden intends on fulfilling his commitment to supply Europe with liquified natural gas (LNG) by negotiating with foreign companies, rather than increasing U.S. production, to fill the need.
Joe Biden said on Friday:
“The United States, together with our international partners, we’re going to work to ensure an additional 15 — one-five — 15 billion cubic meters of liquified natural gas — LNG — for Europe this year.”
“And as the EU works to discontinue buying Russian gas well before 2030, it will also work to ensure additional EU market demand for 50 billion cubic meters of LNG from the United States annually by 2030.”
So we are going to pay foreign companies with tax money for oil and natural gas when our companies have been pumping more oil and natural gas than any country in the world. Heck, we were energy independent 16 months ago.
