NOTABLE QUOTES

Daniel Greenfield contributor to Frontpage Magazine: Like Obama, Biden has dragged us through international humiliations to weaken us.

Giulio Meotti contributor to Gatestone Institute: Russia, it turns out, has reportedly been promoting, often through “dark money” via Bermuda – which does not require donor countries to be named — “green” campaigns against nuclear power to ensure dependence by the West on imports of Russia’s fossil fuels. According to an article in The Hill. . . . In addition, an investigation by Unherd revealed that China is also funding Western environmentalists.

Landon Mion contributor to Townhall: “We got a story to tell, just got to tell it,” Obama said at the conclusion of a press conference with President Biden after a reporter asked the 44th president what his message would be for Democrats worried about the 2022 elections.

Daniel Greenfield contributor to Frontpage Magazine comments on a Chicago church’s Lent decision:   “In our worship services throughout Lent, we will not be using any music or liturgy written or composed by white people,” the website for the First United Church of Oak Park reads. “Our music will be drawn from the African American spirituals tradition, from South African freedom songs, from Native American traditions, and many, many more.” Have they found a bible drawn from South Africa yet?

Hemingway: Breaking: Trump To Address Heritage Foundation Conference In April
“We need bold leaders who speak candidly, and President Trump is unafraid to do so—even as Big Tech and the media attempt to silence him,” Heritage President Kevin Roberts said, announcing the event. “We’re grateful that he will join us in Florida to discuss the significant issues facing our country and pinpoint the failures of the Biden-Harris regime.” […]  Under the new leadership of Roberts, the group has revamped its policy agenda, announcing last week its seven strategic priorities, including ensuring election integrity, fighting Big Tech oppression, countering the threat of Communist China, and securing American borders. In 2020 Heritage rejected six-figure contributions from Big Tech companies Google and Facebook, after previously taking money from the groups.

DURHAM INVESTIGATION

Techno Fog: John Durham, Michael Sussmann, and the Broader Clinton Conspiracy
Texts from Sussmann prove his lies. There was a flurry of filings in the Michael Sussmann case late yesterday. Here’s the latest. On September 19, 2016, DNC/Clinton Campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann met with FBI General Counsel James Baker, where Baker was provided with data and “white paper” purporting to show covert communications (since proven to be bogus) between Russian Alfa Bank and the Trump Organization. Special Counsel John Durham has just provided evidence that the night before – on September 18, 2016 – Sussmann sent Baker this text: . . .

JANUARY 6

Julie Kelly senior writer for American Greatness  tweeted: I will try not to swear with abandon as I explain what happened in DC District Court today. Ethan Nordean has been in jail for 14 months. He is not charged with any violent crime related to Jan 6–he didn’t assault anyone or carry a weapon. His only “crime” is being a Proud Boy . Judge Timothy Kelly–A TRUMP APPOINTEE–has denied release for Nordean and other Proud Boys also not charged with crimes of violence.  (His contact information is here)

Newsmax: Ivanka Trump Testifies Before US Capitol Attack Committee
Former President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka testified for about eight hours on Tuesday to the U.S. House of Representatives committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, siege on the U.S. Capitol. “She’s answering questions. I mean, you know, not in a broad, chatty term, but she’s answering questions,” Rep. Bennie Thompson, the panel’s Democratic chairman, told reporters at the Capitol. Her testimony began Tuesday morning and ended around 6 p.m., about eight hours later, a source familiar with the testimony told Reuters.

DEEP STATE

Lovelace: Postal inspectors insist their snooping on Americans’ online activity didn’t break the law
The U.S. Postal Inspection Service said its covert internet snooping program did not break the law, challenging an inspector general report that accused the agency of conducting unauthorized searches and exceeding its law enforcement authority. […] An ensuing inspector general’s audit found that more than a quarter of analysts’ work in the covert internet program over two-plus years may have not had legal authorization. The postal service’s watchdog said in the audit that analysts need a postal nexus to get authorization for searches but the audit discovered searches using keywords such as “protest,” “attack,” and “destroy” and that did not mention the mail, postal crimes, or postal facilities and personnel.

JUDICIARY

Project Veritas: Shirley Teter Sued Project Veritas, Lost, and is Ordered to Pay Veritas’ Expenses
Shirley Teter, who sued Project Veritas for defamation stemming from a 2016 investigation into political organization, Democracy Partners, has been ordered by a federal judge to pay for the non-profit journalist organization’s legal expenses. Democracy Partners has previously worked with former President Barack Obama, Hilary Clinton and the DNC. Teter, who was represented by a cadre of experienced lawyers from around the country, claimed that she was “indigent” and therefore should not have to cover Project Veritas’ legal expenses. But last week, U.S. District Judge Martin Reidinger ordered Teter pay for Project Veritas’ expenses calling her claim “so weak that it did not survive a motion to dismiss.”

2022 ELECTION

Isenstadt & Beavers:  GOP Rep. Fred Upton to retire
Rep. Fred Upton, one of the longest-tenured Republicans in the House of Representatives, has decided to retire rather than seek reelection in 2022. Upton was one of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach then-President Donald Trump in January 2021, saying in a statement that “our country cannot and will not tolerate any effort by any president to impede the peaceful transfer of power.” Now, Upton is the fourth of those 10 to retire, joining Reps. Anthony Gonzalez (R-Ohio), John Katko (R-N.Y.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) in exiting Congress.

BIDEN’S UNCONSTITUTIONAL VACCINE MANDATES

Heine: Newly Released Docs: Pfizer Had to Hire 1,800 Additional Employees in Early 2021 to Process ‘Large Increase’ in Vaccine Adverse Events
The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine was made available under the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) on Dec. 11, 2020. By February of 2021, the company was seeing so many safety signals, including in pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, it had to immediately hire 600 employees to process the data.
“Pfizer has also taken a multiple actions [sic] to help alleviate the large increase of adverse event reports. This includes significant technology enhancements, and process and workflow solutions, as well as increasing the number of data entry and case processing colleagues,” the confidential report stated. “To date, Pfizer has onboarded approximately 600 additional full-time employees (FTEs). More are joining each month with an expected total of more than 1,800 additional resources by the end of June 2021.”

Conradson: “It’s Beyond ANY Shadow of a Doubt That the Vaccines Are Causing LARGE NUMBERS of Deaths”: Dr. Peter McCullough (VIDEO)
Death inevitably follows pandemics, and it has been especially prevalent throughout the past two years, thanks to the Fauci-funded genetically modified virus that escaped from the Wuhan Lab in late 2019. Despite the mass rollout of a vaccine, in which the majority of the population was compelled into taking the jab, excess deaths in the US remain at all-time highs over a year after the “cure” was introduced, and the numbers continue to get worse – especially for young Americans. All while deaths from Covid itself are bottoming out. So what is going on?

Shaw: Study: 4th booster protects the elderly… for four weeks
If the latest medical study out of Israel is anywhere close to accurate, people may be looking at the vaccination campaign a bit differently. That would be particularly true of older people who are still considered among the most vulnerable to infection. In patients age 60 and over, a fourth booster shot was found to significantly improve immunity, but that protection faded rapidly after just four weeks.

Greenfield: Biden’s Weakness on the Ukraine-Russia War is a Threat to America
Putin invaded Ukraine under Obama in Feb 2014 and Biden in Feb 2022. The invasions eight years apart to the month are not a coincidence. Both times Vladimir Putin was facing a lame duck Democrat who had just flinched away from a military engagement. Each time Putin smelled weakness and he struck.
[…]  The latest Russian invasion followed the Fall of Kabul and the pathetic spectacle of American forces abandoning their own citizens to Taliban terror which helped make Biden a lame duck. Would we be watching a war in Ukraine if not for Biden’s disgrace in Afghanistan? […]  Biden, like his former boss, keeps insulting and threatening Putin not from a position of strength, but as an admission of weakness. Biden calls for regime change and war crimes trials for Putin, and then slow walks shipments of weapons and refuses to transfer planes to Ukraine. […]   Putin understands the message the same way a big dog understands when a little dog yaps.

Puder: Why Biden’s Nuclear Deal With Iran is Dangerous for America
President Joe Biden’s most important job is to protect America from foreign threats, and not necessarily appease the left-wing of his Democratic party. The threat that China, Iran, and Russia pose to US security is considerable. While China and Russia are brute forces in the international arena, they have not caused American deaths in military-like operations. Iran, on the other hand, did. The Military Times reported (April 4, 2019), “The Pentagon…upping the official estimates of US troops in Iraq who were killed by Iranian-backed militias, now put that number at 603. Those casualties were the result of explosively formed penetrators (EFP), other improvised explosive devices (IED), mortars, rocket propelled grenades (RPG), small arms, sniper and other attacks.” […]  While negotiations on the renewal of the nuclear deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran were going on in Vienna, missiles from an Iranian base struck in the vicinity of the newly constructed US Consulate just outside Erbil, the capital of the Kurdish Regional Government (KRG), earlier this month. It is clear that the Ayatollah regime intended to hurt American lives and property. It did not however give pause to the US participation in the negotiations. It is compounded by the insulting setup whereby US representatives had been exiled to a separate hotel location in Vienna, as demanded by the Iranians. Moreover, Iran demanded the delisting of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) from the list of terrorist organizations. The combination of all of these facts, along with the continued cheating by the Iranians on their previous nuclear commitments, has diminished the US stature. All of that notwithstanding, the Biden administration’s eagerness for a deal with the leading state-sponsoring terrorist entity endangers American security, and that of its allies, including Israel, is inexplicable.

Meotti: The Great Russian Energy Scam
“Germany and several other European countries have largely banned fracking. This has transformed European leaders into the equivalent of 16th-century naval explorers, praying for favorable winds and weather as energy prices rise and fall depending on cloud cover and wind conditions.” — Wall Street Journal editorial, October 20, 2021. In the autumn of 2021, COP26, the UN climate conference, was setting up its grotesque spectacle: a kind of ecological Versailles. The rich, powerful and virtuous of the planet gathered in Glasgow to pontificate to the citizenry of Western countries about how much we are harming the planet with our way of life. They arrived in their private jets to complain about the plague of air industry emissions. The British government’s Chief Scientific Adviser, Patrick Vallance, said that everyone should eat less meat and fly less. Then came the news that 400 private jets would be flying to the UN climate conference… […]  One of the reasons for Germany’s catastrophic energy choices — Russian gas and Chinese solar panels instead of domestic nuclear energy and fossil fuel production — was exposed by Fabien Bouglé in his book Nucléaire, les vérités cachées (“Nuclear Energy, The Hidden Truths”). In a recent interview with Le Figaro, he said: . . . […] . . . progressive American pundits until October dreamed of an alliance between the West, Russia and China against global warming. Now that the West has isolated Russia, the largest supplier of energy for Europe, no one is talking about that anymore.
The Glasgow meeting in January has been forgotten. Coal imports to the European Union have already increased by more than 56% compared to 2021, to face an energy crisis. In Britain, the Coal Authority has authorized a mine in Wales to increase production by 40 million tonnes over the next two decades.
Germany, which depends on Russian gas and which has the Greens Party in government with the Social Democrats, was so desperate that it had to stop the shutdown of its nuclear power plants.

Goldman: Beating China
America needs a proactive industrial policy to win the fourth industrial revolution. We need to rebuild the American economy, and we can only do that with a visionary strategy that galvanizes the imagination of Americans, like the Kennedy Moon Shot or the Reagan Strategic Defense Initiative.
Let’s put it very simply: the numbers show that the Trump policy toward China was a catastrophic failure. And with all due respect to Curt Mills, if we get more of that we’ll have more catastrophic failure. We’re now importing over 30% more from China than we did in January 2018 when Trump imposed tariffs. Tariffs are a really lousy way of dealing with this kind of problem: they’re good for micro-economic dumping issues, but they’re very ineffective at a macro level. As for technology suppression, China built 70% of the world’s 5G networks and is proceeding to build the application on top of that which constitutes the fourth industrial revolution. We can do better than China. We’re better equipped to innovate than China. But we’re not doing so, because we’re crushed by a technocratic elite which has sucked the marrow out of the United states economy and generated enormous wealth doing things that, for the most part, harm us. Nothing short of an intervention by the federal government, namely an industrial policy, will turn that around.

BIDEN/HARRIS/OBAMA REGIME: TRANSFORMING AMERICA

Hageman: Why Energy Security Is National Security
In December 2008, Marine Corps Gen. James Jones (retired) wrote in a Wall Street Journal article that “You can’t use the word energy independence. It is not a valid phrase. It is designed to excite people. But it is simply not going to happen.” That was a factually unsupported statement then, and remains so. At the time that Jones made this pronouncement, the U.S. Minerals Management Service was estimating that there were approximately 18 billion barrels (BBls) of oil and 77 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of gas in the Outer Continental Shelf. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) estimated that there were at least 10.6 BBls of oil and 8.6 Tcf of gas in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The potential for U.S. dominance has not abated. Texas, which currently leads U.S. states in oil production, has massive proven oil (11.1 BBls) and gas (93.5 Tcf) reserves. North Dakota, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Colorado round out the top five in terms of oil production. Crude oil is produced in 32 states. The top five natural gas-producing states are Texas, Pennsylvania, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and West Virginia. Wyoming leads in coal production, and West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and North Dakota are critical coal-producing states as well. In 2019 it was estimated that Wyoming had 1.4 trillion tons of total coal resources. […]  The world stage is now set: Our “liberal democracies” are dependent on totalitarian and destructive regimes, and the mad dash to try to deflect from that reality has begun. The saber-rattling, the tough talk, and the genuflection to “world order” are designed to gloss over the fact that if Western democracies had not chosen to destroy our energy independence, we wouldn’t be in this mess in the first place. [NOTE: Harriet Hageman is WY Rep. Liz Cheney’s Republican primary challenger.]

Touchberry: Big Oil execs hammer Democrats’ price gouging accusations, say don’t ‘control the market price’
Chevron CEO Michael Wirth is coming out swinging Wednesday in front of House Democrats who accuse oil company executives of price gouging. “I want to be absolutely clear,” Mr. Wirth says in his prepared opening remarks. “We do not control the market price of crude oil or natural gas, nor of refined products like gasoline and diesel fuel, and we have no tolerance for price gouging.” He’s one of six Big Oil executives ready to turn the tables on Democrats at a House Energy and Commerce Committee, as first reported Tuesday by The Washington Times.

Moore: Former President Obama visits the White House for the first time in 5 years
Obama’s return was pegged to an event marking the 12th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act, a signature legislative achievement under his administration. At the event, President Biden unveiled expansions to that law. The visit comes as Biden faces the lowest approval rating of his presidency and months of low popularity and disapproval linked to his handling of the ongoing war in Ukraine. “It is good to be back in the White House,” Obama said at the event with Biden and Vice President Harris.

After signing the order, Biden shook several hands and saluted the crowd before slowly wandering away from the table. Upon realizing no one was walking with him, Biden lifted his hands in apparent frustration and turned around to see several people, including Vice President Kamala Harris and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, encircling Obama.

Carlson:  Tucker Carlson: Democrats have decided to replace Joe Biden, we don’t know who with
Well, exactly what it looks like. The Democratic Party and its media wing have decided to jettison Joe Biden. There was never an official order to do this. What you’re watching here, as always, is the hive mind at work. Democrats have the same reactions because they have the same instincts, “Biden is week, we must get rid of him.” Now, to most people, that sounds harsh and unforgiving, but in the animal kingdom, it’s an entirely natural response. It’s the first rule of dog packs. For example, if a single dog wavers or lags behind, the other dogs will kill him, even if they’re from the same litter. Yes, it’s fratricide, but it’s nothing personal. It’s a matter of group survival and that’s exactly how the Democratic Party operates.  Individuals are irrelevant to the party. The group is all that matters. No one at the DNC actually cares about Joe Biden or ever has, or for that matter, cares about George Floyd or Greta Thunberg or David Hogg or anyone else they tell you is an irreplaceable hero. All people are expendable. What matters is the party and the party matters because in numbers, there is power. And of course, on some level, Joe Biden knows this. He’s spent his life in the Democratic Party. He’s never worked outside of the Democratic Party, so he understands how this ends. Inevitably, after 50 years, it is his turn to be eliminated. Will he scream for mercy like Beria did or will he take it like a man? That’s the only question.

Anderson: Joe Biden’s Released Tax Returns Don’t Explain Millions In Income. Where Did It Come From?
The sources of President Joe Biden’s large income after he left his post as vice president have never been detailed in his tax returns. […]  Rather than ask for proof of sources of income, the media has been stuck in a repeating cycle of reporting about whether Joe and Jill underpaid payroll taxes. That’s a valid question, but it may miss the much larger one: Where did all of that money come from after Biden left office? […]  If this question involved former President Donald Trump and one of his sons, The New York Times and The Washington Post would already be howling for full disclosure, and they would be right to do so. So perhaps they will join now in saying, “Mr. President, please clear the air of all doubt — release your full tax returns.”

Anderson & Ross: Biden’s FEC Nominee Sued Georgia Over Stacey Abrams Election Loss, Blamed ‘Unreliable’ Voting Machines
President Joe Biden’s pick to serve on the Federal Election Commission is representing Stacey Abrams’s nonprofit and Raphael Warnock’s church in a lawsuit that challenged the validity of Georgia’s 2018 election due in part to the state’s use of “unreliable” electronic voting machines. In November 2018, election lawyer Dara Lindenbaum signed on to a federal legal complaint on behalf of Abrams’s Fair Fight Action. The complaint challenged the constitutionality of Georgia’s 2018 election, which saw Abrams lose to Republican governor Brian Kemp in a race she never conceded. Warnock’s Ebenezer Baptist Church joined the suit in early 2019, just months before the Democrat entered Georgia’s 2020 Senate race.

Simonson: Migrant Surge May Push DHS To Lower Security Standards at Border
The Department of Homeland Security may lower the security clearance required to process migrants detained on the southern border in an effort to mitigate staffing shortages ahead of the surge of immigrants expected at the border in the coming months, according to internal memos reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon. The memos show leadership within the agency discussing the need to allow members of its volunteer force—staffers who sign up to assist with border issues outside their normal roles—and outside contractors access the federal government’s internal immigration data entry system. That system, known as E3, compiles all information, including biometric data, on migrants detained by Customs and Border Protection agents. E3 is a law enforcement system, meaning that civilians rarely get access without proper training and background clearance. Because the information in E3 is sensitive a comprehensive background investigation is required to work on the system. The proposed changes could open up the country to a host of security concerns. One senior DHS official said the change displays a lack of serious concern about controlling who can enter the country.

Nicholas: Scoop: Sinema throws cold water on Build Back Better revival
Last year, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) publicly sounded the death knell for President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), his fellow holdout, is privately concurring, Axios has learned. Why it matters: In closed-door conversations, Sinema has told donors a path to revival is unlikely. That’s dampened expectations Congress will act on a slimmed-down bill before Memorial Day. It also means any revived BBB legislation faces an arduous route back to the center of the Senate agenda. […]  The big picture: With an expected vote on Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve as a Supreme Court justice this week, the Senate still wants to act on coronavirus relief before leaving town.

Saric: President Biden has nominated Admiral Linda Fagan to be the next commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard, the Coast Guard announced in a press release Tuesday.
Why it matters: If confirmed, Fagan will become the first woman to lead a U.S. military branch. While running for president, both Biden and then-candidate Kamala Harris signed a pledge to ensure at least 50% of their Senate-confirmed national security positions would be women. The big picture: Fagan is currently the Coast Guard’s second-in-command as vice commandant, a position she has served in since June 2021. […]  “Within the Coast Guard and across the Department of Homeland Security, Adm. Fagan is admired as a role model of the utmost integrity, and her historic nomination is sure to inspire the next generation of women who are considering careers in military service,” Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in a statement, USNI News reported.

Hoft: Pope Francis Removes Cross from Event in Malta So Not to Upset Illegal Muslim Migrants
Organizers canceled the crucifix from the papal podium because Pope Francis did not want to offend illegal Muslim migrants during the climax of his Malta trip. […]  Instead, recycled plastic bottles with red blobs were used to design the backdrop for the pope’s address to migrants at the John XXIII Peace Lab in Ħal-Far on Saturday, a voluntary organization run by leftist Franciscan friar Fr. Dionysius Mintoff. […]  Removing the crucifix from his presentation in Malta isn’t the first action where the current Pope was criticized for his actions.  The Pope called Joe Biden a good Catholic after years of Biden pushing for abortion.  Biden also is involved in the stolen 2020 Election and the destruction of the freest country in the world.  These moves don’t appear to be good at all.

Greenfield: LA to Pass “Bill of Rights”, Including Right to Health Care, for Cats
It seems only fitting that a place where people don’t have the right not to be carjacked, babies don’t have the right not to be killed, and property rights are rapidly being abolished will have a bill of rights for felines. […]  Any agenda that the criminal, environmental, and animal rights nutters want passed will happen.

Tonkin: Rumbling noises detected on Mars suggest the Red Planet is far from dead but hosts a sea of MAGMA beneath its barren surface
New research has revealed previously undetected quakes beneath the Martian surface, which experts think is proof that it hosts a sea of magma in its mantle. They believe the best explanation for the ‘Marsquakes’ is ongoing volcanic activity underneath Mars’ dusty, barren surface, and believe the planet is more volcanically and seismically active than first thought.

A Black Lives Matter charitable organization is in hot water following reports that it used donor funds to secretly purchase a $6 million mansion in Los Angeles. The group has claimed the massive house, known as “Campus,” is “part of the cultural arm of the [organization]—potentially as an ‘influencer house,’ where abolition+ based content is produced by artists & creatives.” Meanwhile, local activist groups have complained that the charity, the BLM Global Network Foundation, has ignored their pleas for support. Others have accused the group of exploiting racially charged tragedies to raise money.1) Lots of parking!  Can fit up to 24 Ferraris. 2) Lots of security!

TAKE ACTION

The Prickly Pear’s TAKE ACTION focus this year is to help achieve a winning 2024 national and state November 5th election with the removal of the Biden/Obama leftist executive branch disaster, win one U.S. Senate seat, maintain and win strong majorities in all Arizona state offices on the ballot and to insure that unrestricted abortion is not constitutionally embedded in our laws and culture.

Please click the TAKE ACTION link to learn to do’s and don’ts for voting in 2024. Our state and national elections are at great risk from the very aggressive and radical leftist Democrat operatives with documented rigging, mail-in voter fraud and illegals voting across the country (yes, with illegals voting across the country) in the last several election cycles.

Read Part 1 and Part 2 of The Prickly Pear essays entitled How NOT to Vote in the November 5, 2024 Election in Arizona to be well informed of the above issues and to vote in a way to ensure the most likely chance your vote will be counted and counted as you intend.
