Obama Ignored Biden’s Schemes…

By

(RepublicanWire.org) – Americans are learning much more about the disturbing level of corruption under the Obama administration that led to millions in cash for top Democrat families.

Obama’s net worth increased from $1.3 million going into the White House to $70 million today — all while earning a $400,000 salary as president. Obama conveniently enriched himself as well as the Bidens and other political leaders by being compliant and turning a blind eye to the Democrats’ international criminal schemes.

Under Obama, the Clinton Foundation ignored the federal and state accounting rules that legitimate charities must follow. Obama also put Biden in charge of U.S. foreign policy in Ukraine and Russia which allowed the Biden family to rake in cash.

Obama knew that Hunter was being paid $50,000 a month by Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma while his father, Vice President Biden, oversaw U.S. relations with Ukraine. Obama did nothing about it.

In 2018, Biden explained that he pressed then-President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko to fire the country’s top prosecutor who was then investigating Hunter Biden’s financial arrangement with Burisma.

If not, Biden threatened to withdraw a $1 billion U.S. loan guarantee.

“I said, ‘You’re not getting the billion,’” Biden recalled. “I looked at them and said, ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money.’”

“Well son of a b****, he got fired,” Biden cheerfully said. “And they put in place someone who was solid at the time.”

San Francisco Votes In Favor To Give Reparations…

By

(RepulicanWire.org) – San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors voted unanimously on Tuesday to accept a draft plan from the city’s African American Reparations Advisory Committee that would pay out a one-time $5 million payment per qualifying person.

The reparations committee will submit its final proposal in June, after which the Board of Supervisors is set to meet on September 19th for its next reparations hearing.

Payments of $5 million to every eligible Black adult, the elimination of personal debt and tax burdens, guaranteed annual incomes of at least $97,000 for 250 years and homes in San Francisco for just $1 a family.

These were some of the more than 100 recommendations made by a city-appointed reparations committee tasked with the thorny question of how to atone for centuries of slavery and systemic racism. And the San Francisco Board of Supervisors hearing the report for the first time Tuesday voiced enthusiastic support for the ideas listed, with some saying money should not stop the city from doing the right thing.

In San Francisco, Black residents once made up more than 13% of the city’s population, but more than 50 years later, they account for less than 6% of the city’s residents — and 38% of its homeless population. The Fillmore District once thrived with Black-owned night clubs and shops until government redevelopment in the 1960s forced out residents.

Fewer than 50,000 Black people still live in the city, and it’s not clear how many would be eligible. Possible criteria include having lived in the city during certain time periods and descending from someone “incarcerated for the failed War on Drugs.”

Critics say the payouts make no sense in a state and city that never enslaved Black people. Opponents generally say taxpayers who were never slave owners should not have to pay money to people who were not enslaved.

Leo Terrell has had a lot to say on the matter.

Biden Said It Out Loud…

By

(RepublicanWire.org) – While discussing the recent approval of Covid vaccines for children under five, Biden was asked by a reporter how many kids can be vaccinated before Congress needs to approve more funding for the experimental shots.

“Well, we’ll get through at least this year,” Biden responded. “We do need more money. But we don’t just need more money for vaccines for children, eventually; we need more money to plan for the second pandemic.“

He continued, “There’s going to be another pandemic. We have to think ahead. And that’s not something the last outfit did very well. That’s something we’ve been doing fairly well. That’s why we need the money.”

Biden isn’t the only one confidently claiming a second pandemic will soon hit the world.

World Health Organization President Tedros Ghebreyesus wrote on Monday that his group is working on ensuring “equitable access of vaccines, tests, treatments when the next pandemic strikes.”

In May of 2020 during the pandemic, Bill Gates told comedian Stephen Colbert that there will be a “pandemic two.”

It wouldn’t be the first time that a pandemic was announced before it happened. There was an article from January 11, 2017 where Dr. Fauci said, “no doubt” Donald J. Trump will be confronted with a surprise infectious disease outbreak during his presidency.

Shady Government Contracts Are Being Investigated…

By

(RepublicanWire.org) – The White House and President Joe Biden face scrutiny over millions of dollars worth of government contracts and loans going to prominent Democratic donors.

According to a group of House Republicans requesting more information about the White house’s process for awarding contracts, the Biden administration has maintained a habit of doling out taxpayer money to businesses associated with donors.

A letter to GOP members of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform sent to White House Office read, “Awarding lucrative government contracts to companies led by large Democratic donors is becoming a troubling Biden Administration pattern and raises questions about whether political contributions play a role in the decision to award federal taxpayer dollars.”

Much of the letter’s focus centers on Joe Kiani, the founder, and CEO of a company called Masimo. Kiani was appointed to the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology last September and has donated nearly $3 million to Biden and Democratic-aligned groups. His company has received close to $3 million in federal government contracts since January 2021 from agencies including the Department of Defense, Department of Health and Human Services, and Department of Veterans Affairs.

Masimo received government contracts in previous presidential administrations but is on the path to exceeding that amount under Biden with Kiani now also serving on a White House board.

“Kiani has given more money to support President Biden than most Americans dream of having in their lifetimes,” South Carolina Rep. Ralph Norman said in a statement. “I’m determined to ensure this administration is not leveraging kickbacks in return for campaign financing.”

The letter also brought attention to Lukas Walton, the billionaire grandson of Walmart founder Sam Walton. Walton owns 4.9% of a solar firm that received a $500 million loan from the International Development Finance Institution. Walton donated $300,000 to Biden’s 2020 campaign and $100,000 to the Democratic National Committee in 2020.

A source with the Oversight and Reform Committee Republicans said there wasn’t any evidence the contracts were no-bid.

However, conservative groups touted the moves and said the call is more than warranted.

“Between his personnel appointments, ambassador picks, and his administration’s suspicious government contracts, it is clear that Biden is rewarding his supporters with taxpayer money,” said Heritage Action spokeswoman Carson Steelman. “Biden’s moves represent the worst of the Washington swamp, and Congress is right to demand more transparency and accountability on behalf of the American people.”
