Russia reacts angrily after Biden calls Putin a 'killer'

The Kremlin has reacted angrily to US President Joe Biden's remarks that Russian leader Vladimir Putin is "a killer," calling the comment unprecedented and describing the relationship between the two countries as "very bad."

Everything I've predicted these past four years is coming to realization. Trumps troubles with the courts, payback to Russia. And they are happening in the predicted timeline.

lol

That's not a countdown you should be looking forward to.

By election day, nobody is going to remember the 1.9 Trillion. The stimmy checks will be spent by the end of March, and unemployment runs out for 18 million Americans more than a year before the election.

Meanwhile, a nearly unchecked "progressive" agenda is going to backfire, and power will shift in the mid-terms just as it almost always does.

What a dumb article.

2 months and a day after inauguration, Biden still hasn't done a solo press conference. If this keeps up, his will be the least transparent administration since Howdy Doody.

They're also trying REALLY hard to keep a media blackout about the border.

THIS is a problem:





That's a nice blanket though. I bought one at a Tom Petty concert back in the late 90's and I still use it all the time today. Exact same color and pattern too. Insanely well made for the price I paid for it.



ETA: Seems Google isn't going to provide this time, but that blanket makes an appearance in El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie too. It's not in the movie long, but it is used as a throw cover on the seats in one of their cars.

I always get a kick when I see that blanket pop up over the years. There are no tags on it, but I'm assuming that it was made in China or whichever 3rd world country we were exploiting for cheap labor at the time of production.

It would be pretty funny if mine actually was made in Mexico in the late 90s, but the ones that the Mexicans pictured trying to illegally cross the border got theirs made in China in 2021.

Biden Team Preparing Up to $3 Trillion in New Spending for the Economy

President Biden’s economic advisers are preparing to recommend spending as much as $3 trillion on a sweeping set of efforts aimed at boosting the economy, reducing carbon emissions and narrowing economic inequality, beginning with a giant infrastructure plan that may be financed in part through tax increases on corporations and the rich.

Exclusive photos from inside a U.S. Customs and Border Protection temporary overflow facility in Donna, Texas, reveal the crowded, makeshift conditions at the border as the government's longer-term child shelters and family detention centers fill up.

Why it matters: Each of eight "pods" in the so-called soft-sided facility has a 260-person occupancy, said Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas), who provided the photos to Axios to raise awareness about the situation. But as of Sunday, he said, one pod held more than 400 unaccompanied male minors.

Because the Biden administration has restricted media coverage at housing facilities, images like these offer a rare window into conditions.
Cuellar, who recently visited a shelter for children, did not tour the Donna facility or take the photos himself. He said the photos were taken over the weekend.

What they're saying: Cuellar described the setting as "terrible conditions for the children" and said they need to be moved more rapidly into the care of the Department of Health and Human Services.

Border Patrol agents are "doing the best they can under the circumstances" but are "not equipped to care for kids" and "need help from the administration," he said.
"We have to stop kids and families from making the dangerous trek across Mexico to come to the United States. We have to work with Mexico and Central American countries to have them apply for asylum in their countries."

“I have said repeatedly from the very outset a Border Patrol station is no place for a child," DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told CNN on Sunday. "That is why we are working around the clock to move these children out of the Border Patrol facilities into the care and custody of the Department of Health and Human Services that shelters them.”

On MSNBC, he compared the administration's actions to those of the Trump administration,"We are not expelling children, girls, 5, 7, 9 years old back into the desert of Mexico, back into the hands of traffickers.”

The bottom line: Facilities are at capacity under coronavirus protocols, and the Rio Grande Valley sector — which includes Donna — has far exceeded even its non-pandemic limits.

As of Saturday, there were 10,000 migrants in CBP custody overall. Nearly half were unaccompanied minors — thousands of whom had been waiting for more than 3 days in border patrol facilities, according to government data provided to Axios by another source.

That's what you get for rolling out the blue carpet for illegal aliens.

Yep, he's working hard to reassemble all the policies Trump subverted that were a part of our immigration and migrant programs comrade. Putin's lucky nobody wants to migrate to Russia.

Yeah, just what we need: a flood of impoverished, uneducated, unhealthy, non-English speaking, gringo-resenting border-jumpers who obviously don't respect our laws.

Yanno, we can't even house our own homeless, heal our own sick, educate our own inner city youth, and provide jobs for the jobless. What makes anyone think we should take in a million more?

But the Dems attitude seems to be that if you jump the border you're entitled to food and water, shelter, and medical care. We treat them better than we treat our own citizens.

How about this?: If we don't fuck up their countries in the first place, then we have no moral responsibility to provide a safety valve for their own governments. So let's leave them alone ... no sanctions, no "interventions", no political cover for authoritarian governments, and require them to solve their own problems.
