CNN Article Makes Insane Claim About Newborn Babies And Gender

The left has moved their position on gender so far from the mainstream in recent years that it’s hard to keep up.

A recent article from CNN offers a stunning example of this.

It used to be pretty easy to determine a newborn baby’s gender, right?

Not anymore, according to CNN.

The Daily Wire reports:

CNN Claims ‘There Is No Consensus Criteria For Assigning Sex At Birth’ In News Article

CNN reported as fact on Tuesday that the meaning of “biological sex” is disputed and that “no consensus” exists for knowing a person’s sex at birth.

The network published the claims in a news piece on South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem’s ongoing battle over legislation that would ban biological males from participating in women’s sports in her state. The piece, titled “South Dakota’s governor issues executive orders banning transgender athletes from women’s sports,” was written by breaking news reporter Devon Cole.

Cole wrote:

Though the two executive orders signed by Noem do not explicitly mention transgender athletes, they reference the supposed harms of the participation of “males” in women’s athletics – an echo of the transphobic claim, cited in other similar legislative initiatives, that transgender women are not women. The orders also reference “biological sex,” a disputed term that refers to the sex as listed on students’ original birth certificates.

It’s not possible to know a person’s gender identity at birth, and there is no consensus criteria for assigning sex at birth.

How have we come to the point where a “news” outlet could say such a thing?

It really is beyond parody.

Report: Nearly 80% of Women and Girls Crossing into the US by Way of Mexico Are Raped or Assaulted

A shocking Fusion investigation in 2017 revealed that 80% of Central American women and girls were raped crossing Mexico into the United States.

Today Joe Biden and Democrats are pushing unlimited illegal immigration into the United States. No children will be returned back home they said.

And as a result of this 2 million illegal aliens and fake refugees are expected to flood across the US southern border this year.
And 80% of the women coming up through Mexico can expect to be raped or sexually assaulted.

Ben Swan reported on this stunning figure this week.

Via Eleanor Goldberg at The Huffington Post.

According to a stunning Fusion investigation, 80 percent of women and girls crossing into the U.S. by way of Mexico are raped during their journey. That’s up from a previous estimate of 60 percent, according to an Amnesty International report.

This year alone, immigration authorities expect more than 70,000 unaccompanied minors to come through the United States unlawfully, the majority of whom are from Central American countries of El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. The number of unaccompanied Central American girls caught at the Southwest border has rapidly outpaced the number boys, according to a July Pew Research study.

Reporter Ben Swan The crisis at the U.S. border continues. Nearly 600 unaccompanied children are crossing the U.S. border everyday. The question virtually no one is asking is how many of these kids are being sexually trafficked and abused along the way.

Viral Video Shows Black Man Being “Unjustly” Arrested By White Cop…Terrence K. Williams Reveals The Part of The Video They DON’T Want You To See!

Black Voices for Trump leader and conservative comedian Terrence K. Williams has never been shy about his opinion. Today, in a video he produced on Rumble, Williams shared the truth behind a viral video of a black man being arrested by a white police officer.

100 Percent Fed Up – In the video’s viral version, a white police officer can be seen standing behind a black man, asking him repeatedly to comply. No context is given about why the black man was being pulled over by the police officer in the video, leaving the viewer to believe the officer unfairly targets the man simply because he is black. When the black man refuses to comply and resists arrest, the police officer draws his gun and stands back from the suspect, waiting for his back up to arrive. When the backup law enforcement officer arrives, he approaches the suspect. He aggressively pushes him against the back of the vehicle as both law enforcement officers attempt to restrain the suspect so they can arrest him. A woman with the subject can be heard screaming in the background as she pleads with him to obey the cops. He refuses to do so and ends up wrestling with both cops on the ground, as the woman in the background screams, “Y’all ain’t gotta do all that!”

Terrence K. Williams destroys the left’s narrative by showing the critical part of the viral video that’s been removed—the part where the police officer explains to the subject that he was pulled over for going 101 MPH in a 65 MPH zone and that he was being arrested because he refused to give the officer his driver’s license.

Williams offers some good advice for anyone who gets pulled over, “When the officer pulls you over—just comply!” He added, “If you feel like you were in the right and the officer was in the wrong—fight it in court!”

Aliens Will Get Yearly ‘Renewable’ Amnesty And Social Security Card

The Biden team is reportedly granting thousands of illegal border crossers one-year renewable permits to stay in the United States to apply for asylum, a process that can take multiple years.

According to a new CIS (Center For Immigration Studies) report, aliens will be allowed to receive Social Security cards, paving the way for potential government taxpayer benefits and jobs.

Immigration expert Todd Bensman revealed in a new report that an estimated 34,000 recent border-crossing aliens have already been distributed all around the continental United States.

Bensman stated that if the migrant qualifies to stay, and most do under Biden’s rules, they are tested for COVID and then given documents to stay. Afterward, they are guided to a privately run bus service that disseminates them across America.

According to Bensman, these steps happen after the COVID test:

DHS then provides many immigrants with an administrative document titled “Order of Release on Recognizance,” which grants them the legal right to be present inside the United States, according to two such documents that immigrants on the buses agreed to share. These require the immigrants to self-report to a deportation officer in their destination cities by a specific date provided.

One Nicaraguan migrant showed CIS a DHS document titled “Interim Notice Authorizing Parole,” which grants him a renewable one-year term to live legally inside the country.

Most will likely use their time to apply for asylum, a lengthy, back-logged process that allows for work authorization and Social Security cards during an adjudication process that can drag on for years.

Before the Biden team’s occupation of the White House, 45th President Trump strengthened border security and lessened the importing of unskilled labor by requiring asylum seekers to stay in Mexico while their papers were processed. This was a deterrent that sent many people back home.

Now that the Obama-like system is back, migrants are being sent to major cities again.

“On the bank of the Rio Grande in Del Rio recently,” Bensman wrote, he “happened across a family of four who had just crossed and turned themselves in to a Border Patrol agent. They were seated on the ground next to his agency truck. Asked where they were from and where they expected to go next, the parents answered that they were from Venezuela and were on their way to join relatives in Florida.”

“They should be there inside of a week.”

Estimates Show US Is on Track to Encounter 2 Million Migrants on Southern Border in 2021

According to reported government estimates regarding the number of migrants expected to cross into the U.S. this year, President Joe Biden’s border crisis is only just beginning.

CNN, citing internal government calculations, reported immigration officials expect to encounter an estimated two million people at the border in 2021. Officials also reportedly believe a great many of those people are not expected to be families or unaccompanied minors, either.

Despite the fact that there are tens of thousands of children currently stuck in cramped facilities, there is no deterrent for more coming every day.

There is also no deterrent for adults and families making the trek north and ultimately expecting to find themselves in communities across the country.

“US Border Patrol encounters are also expected to be largely made up of single adults, who are being turned away at the US southern border as soon as they’re encountered under a public health order, and as a result, might also account for repeat crossers,” CNN reported.

If Biden and officials at the Department of Homeland Security were hoping for a quick end to this crisis, that doesn’t appear to be the case.

The administration has made it clear unaccompanied minors are here to stay. That fact, combined with talk that mass amnesty is on the horizon, and there is simply no stopping the influx of people headed this way seeking to take advantage of the self-described “nice guy” president.

There is in fact another caravan forming to head this way from Central America at this very moment, the New York Post reported.

What could have prevented such a disaster from occurring? For starters, Biden could have avoided portraying the border as a temporarily closed imaginary line on a map while on the stump last year.

Democrats would have also done themselves — and the American people — a favor by embracing law and order on the border before blaming a non-crisis on what they would eventually turn into a catastrophe.

But in October, Biden lamented former President Barack Obama’s record number of deportations in front of the entire country — and world — during the second and final presidential debate.

“Let me ask about your immigration policy, Mr. Vice President. The Obama administration did fail to deliver immigration reform, which had been a key promise during the administration. It also presided over record deportations as well as family detentions at the border before changing course. So why should voters trust you with an immigration overhaul now?” moderator Kristen Welker asked Biden.

Biden might as well have laid out a welcome mat with his response.

“Because we made a mistake. It made — it took too long to get it right. Took too long to get it right. I’ll be president of the United States, not vice president of the United States,” he said. “And the fact is, and I’ve made it very clear, within 100 days, I’m going to send to the United States Congress a pathway to citizenship for over 11 million undocumented people.”

Biden would go on to criticize former President Donald Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy for migrants seeking asylum.

“This is the first president in the history of the United States of America that anybody seeking asylum has to do it in another country. That’s never happened before in America,” Biden said, attacking Trump over his administration’s strict border enforcement policies.

“That’s never happened before in America,” he added. “You come to the United States and you make your case. That’s how you seek asylum, based on the following, on the following premise, why I deserve it under American law. They’re sitting in squalor on the other side of the river.”

That was after nearly a year of open borders rhetoric.

Would-be border crossers are no longer sitting in “squalor” on the other side of the river.

Under Biden, a record two million migrants are expected to cross the border, and they’re likely all expecting “nice guy” Biden to let them in, to offer them residency and probably citizenship. There is also a chance many of these unvetted people will be voting in coming elections.

CNN noted border crossings haven’t surpassed one million since 2006, which pokes a hole in the Biden theory that crossings right now are increasing due to weather.

Border states must be in for an uncharacteristically moderate spring and summer, as the border crisis is about to overwhelm not only Customs and Border Protection agents, but the communities where these people will ultimately end up residing — unless the Biden administration changes course quickly.

AWKWARD: Jill Biden Wraps Up Cesar Chavez Day Speech by Butchering “Sí Se Puede” (VIDEO)

This was awkward.

Jill Biden traveled to Delano, California on Wednesday to celebrate Cesar Chavez’s birthday.

Cesar Chavez, a “hero” to people in the labor movement, was an activist who fought for fair wages for farm workers.

One aspect of Cesar Chavez’s activism that the Democrats don’t like to talk about was his fierce opposition to illegal immigration.

Mrs. Biden landed in Bakersfield this afternoon before making her way to the Forty Acres National Historic Landmark in Delano where Chavez formed his first union.

“He is a union person. I am a member of the teachers union,” Jill Biden said during a speech. “We are a union couple.”

Jill Biden wrapped up her Cesar Chavez Day speech by butchering “Sí Se Puede” – Spanish for “Yes, it is possible” or “Yes, we can”

“Paging Dr. Fauci” – Rand Paul Scolds Fauci After CDC Director Says, ‘Data Suggest Vaccinated People Do Not Carry Covid-19’ (VIDEO)

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky on Wednesday said new data suggest vaccinated people do not carry Covid-19.

“Our data from the CDC today suggest that vaccinated people do not carry the virus,” Walensky said Wednesday afternoon.

WATCH:

Senator Rand Paul, a physician, scolded Dr. Facui and told him to “end the mask theater now that CDC admits evidence that the vaccinated do not carry the virus.”

A couple weeks ago Senator Paul went off on Dr. Fauci during a Senate hearing examining the nation’s Covid response.

The Kentucky Senator told Fauci that Americans do not need to wear two masks after receiving the Covid vaccine because there is “virtually zero chance” they will get Covid.

“Isn’t it just theater?” Rand Paul asked Fauci.

“You’ve been vaccinated and you parade around in two masks for show. You can’t get it again.” Rand Paul said to Fauci. “There’s virtually 0% chance you’re going to get it and you’re telling people that have had the vaccine who have immunity — You’re defying everything we know about immunity by telling people to wear masks who have been vaccinated.”

On Wednesday the CDC backed up Rand Paul’s argument so he scolded quack Fauci.

Rand Paul also linked to a study examining T cell responses in Covid-19 convalescent individuals.

“T cell immunity after natural infection shown to include variants,” Rand Paul said to Fauci. “Do we still need to wear multiple masks after we’ve recovered or been vaccinated?”

Trump Supporting Democrat Turned Republican Considering Run For Governor Of Georgia

Do you remember Vernon Jones? He’s the Georgia Democrat who bucked his party by supporting Trump and eventually switching to Republican.

Jones is now considering a run for governor of Georgia.

It seems he is not impressed with the performance of Governor Kemp.

Just The News reports:

Vernon Jones, former Democrat lawmaker in Georgia, mulls GOP challenge to Gov. Brian Kemp

Last week, Jody Hice, the four-term Republican congressman from east-central Georgia, announced that he will run to replace incumbent Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger – also a Republican – in 2022. Hice’s bid for the job is an attempt to oust the man who Trump loyalists say cut a backroom deal with Stacey Abrams that allowed for the former president’s loss in the Peach State, as well as the losses of former Sens. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue in January.

Like Hice, former state legislator Vernon Jones is mulling a run to replace Republican Gov. Brian Kemp, who Jones (as well as Hice and Trump) says is the man who stood between Trump and winning the Peach State and possibly the Oval Office for a second time.

Last April, Jones became the first state elected Democratic official in Georgia to endorse Donald Trump’s reelection bid saying that he supported without hesitation the then-President’s handling of the economy, his support for historically black colleges, and his criminal justice reform initiatives. In January, Jones announced he was officially leaving the Democratic Party to become a member of the GOP.

See Jones’s tweet below:

Jones would get plenty of support from Trump supporters if he runs.

Biden Puts Susan Rice in Charge of Effort to Expand Mail-in Voting to Make it Easier For Democrats to Steal Elections


Susan Rice

Joe Biden put Susan “Benghazi” Rice in charge of his administration’s effort to expand mail-in voting to make it easier for Democrats to steal elections.

The Free Beacon reported:

President Joe Biden put controversial former national security adviser Susan Rice in charge of directing hundreds of federal agencies and departments to expand access to mail-in voting.

Biden signed an executive order in March that put Rice, now the assistant to the president for domestic policy, in charge of soliciting strategies from federal agencies to produce “relevant information” on expanded voting registration procedures. Federal agencies must submit to Rice “a strategic plan outlining the ways identified under this review that the agency can promote voter registration and voter participation” within 200 days under the terms of the order.

“Agencies shall consider ways to expand citizens’ opportunities to register to vote and to obtain information about, and participate in, the electoral process,” the order states. “The head of each agency shall evaluate ways in which the agency can, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law, promote voter registration and voter participation.”

Earlier this month Joe Biden signed an executive order “expanding voting access.”

“It is the responsibility of the federal government to expand access to, and education about, voter registration and election information, and to combat misinformation, in order to enable all eligible Americans to participate in our democracy,” the order read.

Biden’s EO orders federal agencies to expand voter registration, gives voting access and education to federal prisoners and improves ballot tracking for voters overseas.

Biden lied during his announcement earlier this month and said more than 60 courts, including the Supreme Court, upheld the 2020 election and determined there was no fraud.

Biden also attacked the GOP-led state legislatures in 28 states for filing more than 100 bills since the 2020 election to prevent Democrat voter fraud.

Biden’s announcement comes after the House passed H.R.1, a massive elections reform bill making it easier for Democrats to steal elections.

Former Federal Prosecutor David L. McGee, Accused by Rep. Gaetz of Extortion, Represented Robert Levinson In Kidnapping Case with Iran

Former federal prosecutor David McGee was accused by Rep. Matt Gaetz of extortion this evening on the Tucker Carlson Show on FOX News.

We reported moments ago on the bizarre story that started earlier in the day at The New York Times. 

The NY Times released a report claiming that Rep. Matt Gaetz from Florida was being investigated for having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old girl a couple years ago.   Gaetz then went on Tucker’s FOX News Show where he claimed the following:

Rep. Matt Gaetz: What is happening is an extortion of me and my family involving a former Department of Justice official. On March 16th, my father got a text message demanding a meeting wherein a person demanded $25 million in exchange for making horrible sex trafficking allegations of me go away. Our family was so troubled by that we went to the local FBI and the FBI and the Department of Justice were so concerned about this, that they asked my dad to wear a wire. Which he did with the former Department of Justice official. Tonight I am demanding that the Department of Justice and the FBI release the audio recordings that were made under their supervision and at their direction which will prove me innocence. These allegations are true and they were meant to bleed my family. This former Department of Justice official tomorrow was supposed to be contacted by my father so that specific instructions could be given regarding the wiring of $4.5 million as a down payment on this bribe. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that tonight somehow The New York Times is leaking this information, smearing me and ruining the investigation.

Tucker Carlson: …First of all, who is this Department of Justice former employee who is trying to extort the money from you.

Rep. Gaetz: His name is David McGee… He currently works at the Beggs and Lane law firm.

BOOM! Matt Gaetz DEMANDS FBI, DOJ to Release Recording of former DOJ Official Threatening His Family with Extortion – Alleged Former DOJ Official Implicated and Named! (VIDEO)

We did some research on Mr. McGee and discovered that he received a number of accommodations in 1996 on his record but none since:

Honors and Awards
  • Outstanding Service Award – U.S. Department of Justice (1996)
  • Outstanding Service Award – U.S. Marshall’s Service (1996)
  • Special Commendation from the Director of the FBI (1988)
  • Certificate of Appreciation – U.S. Secret Service (1996)
  • Certificate of Appreciation – U.S. Treasury Service (1996)

Also of note is that Mr. McGee was involved in a high-profile case in the past. 

McGee represented Iranian kidnapping victim and former Florida FBI agent Robert Levinson. the Florida Phoenix reported:

U.S. District Judge Timothy J. Kelly has ordered the Islamic Republic of Iran to pay $1.457 billion in damages to the family of former Florida FBI Agent Robert Levinson, who was kidnapped by Iranian officials in 2007 and apparently died in captivity.

He was the longest held civilian hostage in American history when his family reported his death earlier this year.

The judge’s order, signed late last week, orders the Iranian government to pay Levinson, his wife, Christine, and their seven children a total of $1.457 billion in compensatory and punitive damages as punishment for “outrageous behavior” and to deter such conduct in the future.

His kidnapping caused “immeasurable suffering’’ to Levinson and his family,’’ the judge ruled. Iran’s conduct and torture of U.S. citizens is part of a longstanding pattern and policy, he added.

Levinson was kidnapped in early 2007 on the island of Kish, a resort in the Persian Gulf near Iran while helping the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency investigate a money laundering scheme that involved the sale of Iranian oil.

He was a career law enforcement agent who retired from the FBI and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration in 1998 after 33 years with the two federal agencies and began working as a private investigator from his home near Fort Lauderdale. He worked internationally in many dangerous situations as a federal agent after after he opened his own private investigative business.

According to the report, the attorney representing the family was David McGee:

David L. McGee, a former federal prosecutor who worked with Levinson on a number of Florida drug smuggling cases, represented the family for more than a decade and filed the civil suit in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. two years ago.

Now it looks like McGee is involved in a big-ticket extortion-related case.

BOOM! Matt Gaetz DEMANDS FBI, DOJ to Release Recording of former DOJ Official Threatening His Family with Extortion – Alleged Former DOJ Official Implicated and Named! (VIDEO)

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlierThe New York Times published a hit piece on popular Trump-supporter Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) saying the Florida Congressman was under investigation for dating a 17-year-old girl.

Representative Matt Gaetz, Republican of Florida and a close ally of former President Donald J. Trump, is being investigated by the Justice Department over whether he had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paid for her to travel with him, according to three people briefed on the matter.

Investigators are examining whether Mr. Gaetz violated federal sex trafficking laws, the people said. A variety of federal statutes make it illegal to induce someone under 18 to travel over state lines to engage in sex in exchange for money or something of value. The Justice Department regularly prosecutes such cases, and offenders often receive severe sentences.

It was not clear how Mr. Gaetz met the girl, believed to be 17 at the time of encounters about two years ago that investigators are scrutinizing, according to two of the people.

The investigation was opened in the final months of the Trump administration under Attorney General William P. Barr, the two people said. Given Mr. Gaetz’s national profile, senior Justice Department officials in Washington — including some appointed by Mr. Trump — were notified of the investigation, the people said.

 

The Gateway Pundit spoke with a source close to Matt Gaetz who told us this report is completely false. Gaetz is not the target of the investigation.  We were also told none of the women he was seeing were underage.

It’s not a surprise the left is after Gaetz since he is such an effective communicator and staunch Trump supporter.

Rep. Gaetz told Axios “the allegations were as searing as they are false.”

On Tuesday night Rep. Matt Gaetz joined Tucker Carlson to discuss the New York Times hit piece.

Matt Gaetz UNLOADED on a former Justice Department official who was threatening his family.

Rep. Matt Gaetz: What is happening is an extortion of me and my family involving a former Department of Justice official. On March 16th, my father got a text message demanding a meeting wherein a person demanded $25 million in exchange for making horrible sex trafficking allegations of me go away.

This former Department of Justice official tomorrow was supposed to be contacted by my father so that specific instructions could be given regarding the wiring of $4.5 million as a down payment on this bribe. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that tonight somehow The New York Times is leaking this information, smearing me and ruining the investigation.

Tucker Carlson: …First of all, who is this Department of Justice former employee who is trying to extort the money from you.

Rep. Gaetz: His name is David McGee… He currently works at the Beggs and Lane law firm.

The Gateway Pundit wrote David McGee tonight regarding Rep. Gaetz’s accusations.
We will post an update if/when we hear back from him.

This was an explosive interview!
WOW!

Biden’s Handlers Aggressively Shout Down Reporters Trying to Ask Questions After PPP Extension Signing (VIDEO)

Joe Biden on Tuesday signed the PPP (Paycheck Protection Program) extension into law.

The Paycheck Protection Program was created under the Trump Administration last year to help small businesses survive during the Covid lockdowns.

The deadline to apply for a PPP loan was extended from March 31 to May 31.

The law also “extends authorization of loans to June 30 to give the Small Business Administration additional time to process applications.” according to CBS News.

Joe Biden took two minutes to explain he was signing the PPP extension act into law and thanked Senators for pushing the bill through Congress.

After Biden signed the bill, his handlers aggressively shouted down reporters trying to ask questions.

Biden just sat there as his handlers shielded him from reporters.

When It Comes to Wearing a Face Mask, It’s Time to Challenge the Pseudo-Science

The intense propaganda to coerce you to wear a face mask is not based on science. It is a pure political power play designed to force you and your children into submission.

This is not my opinion. It is what the science shows.

Let us start with the size of the virus. The corona virus measures 0.125 microns. So let us take a look at how effective masks of different types are in preventing smoke from escaping out of a dummy’s mouth. Note, according to an article by NIH researchers, tobacco smoke ranges in size from “0.3 to 0.5 micron, with a small geometric standard deviation (GSD), indicating few ultrafine (less than 0.1 micron) particles.”

 

 

If you think that wearing a mask is protecting you from COVID, you are deluding. As you can see in the preceding video, smoke particles (which are much larger than the Covid 19 virus) passes thru the mask and circulates in the air. You might as well were a clean sock on your ear as opposed to covering your mouth and nose with a mask. Works just the same, which is another way of saying–useless.

If you want more in depth explanation from an experienced physician, please take time to listen to the following presentation by Dr. Lee Merritt:

2:10PM | Masks: The Science & Myths

To recap–size matters. The only way to really protect yourself against the Covid virus if it is present is to wear an enclosed respirator–i.e., a space suit. I want to reiterate one of Dr. Merritt’s key points. Humidity in the air helps limit the spread of the virus. If you are in a dry air, low humidity environment, the airborne virus will travel father (up to 27 feet according to one of the studies cited by Dr. Merritt). Warm moist air acts as a barrier of sorts to the Covid virus. The water droplets in the humid air capture the virus and take it to the ground.

It is time to challenge the psuedo-science that commands you wear a mask. But most of you already have figured out the scam. For example, you are told you must wear a mask when you enter a restaurant or a bar. Once you are seated, however, magic happens and you are told you can remove your mask. You are still in relative close contact with friends and strangers. Yet now it is “safe” to not wear the mask.

We must push back against this insanity and refuse to submit to demands not grounded in science. The gross hypocrisy keeps piling up. As Jim Hoft reported, a Catholic Priest threatened a pregnant parishioner with arrest if she did not put on a mask. But you can bet your ass that Priest would not hesitate to break Federal law and grant “sanctuary” to illegal aliens, even those with Covid. There are a growing number of Americans fed up with this double standard. That is why Donald Trump’s message–America First–continues to resonate and will attract more support in the coming months.

My message to Joe Biden and his desperate mask mandate is simple–Buck Off.

Red States Leading US Economic Growth, Commerce Department Report Finds

South Dakota, Texas and Utah were the country’s economic engines in the fourth quarter of last year, according to a report from the US Department of Commerce.

The three states were all tagged as red states led by Republicans — from governors, state senators and Republican state assemblies.

The Commerce department’s report is based on the 2020 fourth quarter gross domestic product (GDP) data and February 2021 unemployment rates, the Center Square reported.

While real GDP — which measures the inflation-adjusted value of goods and services produced in a particular area —  rose in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, the percent change in the last quarter of 2020 ranged from 9.9% recorded in South Dakota to 1.2% in the District of Columbia.

Real GDP for the US as a whole increased at an annual rate of 4.3%. 

The top three states in quarter-over-quarter growth were South Dakota (9.9%), Texas (7.5%), and Utah (7.1%). All three have Republican trifecta governments, with Republicans controlling the governor’s offices and both chambers of state legislatures,” the report said.

Of the remaining seven other states in the top 10 leading the US’ economic growth, five were also Republican strongholds: Tennessee with 6.7% growth, Iowa and Nebraska recording 6.3% growth each, Alaska with 5.8% GDP increase and Missouri with 5.6% growth recorded.

Meanwhile, only two Democrat-held states entered the top 10 with the highest economic growth recorded last year — Connecticut with 7% economic growth rate and Delaware which saw a 5.8% GDP growth for the period.

The report noted that aside from the economic growth, unemployment rates were also lowest in red states. 

South Dakota and Utah, for example, registered the lowest unemployment rates in the country, at 2.9% and 3%, respectively. Meanwhile, Democrat-led states Hawaii and California saw the highest unemployment rates, at 9.2% and 9% during the period.

Pointing to the report, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott also tweeted of Texas’ good growth record.

“The Texas economy expanded at a rapid pace of 7.5% in the last quarter of 2020. That means more jobs & more prosperity for Texans,” the governor said referring to the red state’s performance.

“Only one state — and no large state — had better economic growth than Texas. The Texas economy is on fire,” he added.

Iowa Republican Governor Kim Reynolds also pointed to Iowa’s growth of 6.3% for the period.

ICYMI Iowa is:

→ The #1 state for opportunity
→ GDP growth faster than the national avg.
→ Had kids back in school since August

How else can we keep Iowa moving in the right direction? Take our survey today to let us know!

— Kim Reynolds (@KimReynoldsIA) March 26, 2021

The new report from the Department of Commerce follows one from October showing the third quarter of 2020 as the best quarter in American history under former President Donald Trump, according to a report by The Daily Wire.

Under the former Republican president, GDP oversaw an annual average growth of 2.5% — which already accounted for the huge economic drag of the coronavirus pandemic. Meanwhile, the last three years of the Obama administration saw a 2.3% growth.

JUST IN: Biden’s Woke SOCOM “Diversity and Inclusion Chief” Reassigned to New Duties Pending Investigation Into Anti-Trump Memes


Richard Torres-Estrada

United States Special Operations Command (SOCOM) hired Richard Torres-Estrada, a woke, toxic leftist as its first “Diversity and Inclusion Chief” last week and he has already been reassigned to new duties pending an investigation into anti-Trump memes.

Just The News reported:

The U.S. Special Operations Command has reassigned its new diversity chief, Richard Torres-Estrada, to new duties while he is investigated for spreading anti-Donald Trump memes and comparing the former president to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, a spokesperson told Just the News.

“Mr. Torres-Estrada has been assigned to other duties pending the results of the investigation,” SOCOM spokesman Ken McGraw wrote in a Tuesday email.

Joe Biden and his handlers are trying to create an army of unhinged political-minded liberals.

This is another grotesque move by Democrats which is not best for the country or the military but suits their political objectives.

Mr. Torres-Estrada would never be hired if the goal was to improve the military and our future as a country.

The man is a bigot and far-left Never Trumper.  His previous actions should have disqualified him.

Breitbart shared a few of his recent social media posts – this one says it all:

In Cities Across the US, Like Everett, Washington – Free and Fair Elections Are Becoming a Thing of the Past

The system is set up in states like Washington and cities like Everett where free and fair elections are a thing of the past.  Now the Democrats want to replicate this across the nation. 

We reported after the 2020 election that the results for governor in Washington state were suspect.  Democrat governor Inslee was not well-liked.  He handled COVID-19 horribly and he was disrespectful and abusive to President Trump.  His policies and governing led Boeing to relocate to South Carolina and cost the state thousands of great-paying jobs.  All indications were that the Republican was going to take the governorship but on Election Day, after not campaigning a lick in the state, Inslee was reelected.

Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Loren Culp Sues Washington Secretary of State for 2020 Election Mismanagement – Demands an Audit of Ballots and Voting Machines

The problems are many.  First of all, Washington holds universal mail-in elections, meaning that all voters are sent mail ballots whether they request one or not.  In this system, it is obviously more difficult to ensure the voter mailed in their own ballot.  But there are more problems than this.

If there is a recount, and enough money has been paid to perform the recount, there is only so much that can be done.  Jovan Hutton Pulitzer has an excellent video below where he describes the exact scenario that could happen in a location like Snohomish County, Washington, where Everett is located.  This city next to Seattle has some unique laws that prevent a valid recount if one were paid for.

In recounts, only the number of dots filled in on the ballots provided for review can be counted.  The ballots themselves are held behind glass and not made available for review.  Ballots could lack folds, which makes no sense because all ballots have to be stuffed into envelopes and mailed in.  Ballots could be made from different paper types or filled in by machines, but these items can’t be challenged.  The only thing a recount or audit can do is to look at a ballot and either count it or not.

In this scenario, described below, no observable or non-observable variances to standards can be reviewed and audited.  These types of fraud are off-limits for review.  This results in any audits or recounts being totally worthless.

The Democrats are now trying to make this the standard across the country.  HR1 is getting rid of paper ballots altogether.  The US will never have fair and free elections again under this new law.  These will be a thing of the past.

“Allegations Against Me Are as Searing as They Are False” – Matt Gaetz Responds to Scurrilous Hit Piece by New York Times

The New York Times published a hit piece on popular Trump-supporter Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) saying the Florida Congressman was under investigation for dating a 17-year-old girl.

Representative Matt Gaetz, Republican of Florida and a close ally of former President Donald J. Trump, is being investigated by the Justice Department over whether he had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paid for her to travel with him, according to three people briefed on the matter.

Investigators are examining whether Mr. Gaetz violated federal sex trafficking laws, the people said. A variety of federal statutes make it illegal to induce someone under 18 to travel over state lines to engage in sex in exchange for money or something of value. The Justice Department regularly prosecutes such cases, and offenders often receive severe sentences.

It was not clear how Mr. Gaetz met the girl, believed to be 17 at the time of encounters about two years ago that investigators are scrutinizing, according to two of the people.

The investigation was opened in the final months of the Trump administration under Attorney General William P. Barr, the two people said. Given Mr. Gaetz’s national profile, senior Justice Department officials in Washington — including some appointed by Mr. Trump — were notified of the investigation, the people said.

 

The Gateway Pundit spoke with a source close to Matt Gaetz who told us this report is completely false. Gaetz is not the target of the investigation.  We were also told none of the women he was seeing were underage.

It’s not a surprise the left is after Gaetz since he is such an effective communicator and staunch Trump supporter.

Axios reported:

What he’s saying: “The allegations against me are as searing as they are false,” Gaetz said in a 13-minute phone interview with Axios. “I believe that there are people at the Department of Justice who are trying to criminalize my sexual conduct, you know when I was a single guy.”

  • Axios reported earlier Tuesday that Gaetz has privately told confidants he’s seriously considering not seeking re-election, and possibly leaving Congress early for a job at Newsmax.

The big picture: Gaetz, 38, said the specifics of the allegations are “unclear,” and he said he’s been told “very little.” But the New York Times reported late Tuesday afternoon that the Justice Department is investigating Gaetz “over whether he had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paid for her to travel with him.”

  • “The allegations of sexual misconduct against me are false,” Gaetz told Axios. “They are rooted in an extortion effort against my family for $25 million … in exchange for making this case go away.”
  • Gaetz sent Axios screenshots of text messages, emails and documents outlining the alleged extortion scheme, which he claimed was being run by a former DOJ employee. The Justice Department declined to comment.

Sounding shaken, Gaetz said that for weeks, he and his father been working with the FBI in the Northern District of Florida on the extortion case. Gaetz said his lawyers were informed by the Justice Department that “I was not a target but a subject of an investigation regarding sexual conduct with women.”
