Biden says he stressed on Putin that if Russia interferes in American elections, Russia will lose credibility. Same if Navalny dies in prison.
I am sure that put the fear of God in Putin. And they said Trump was soft on Putin.
2. Biden's Press Conference
Biden says he gave a list of sixteen infrastructures in America (like energy supply, water supply, etc.) that Russia must not attack, because it would matter.
Once again, Putin must be cowering in his boots, now that Biden has given him a list.
3. Biden's Press Conference
"No, there were no threats. Just simple assertions made. As a matter of fact, Putin quoted my mom. You may be surprised to know that it was very ... colloquial!"
4. Biden's Press Conference
It's scary to know that Biden has given Putin a list of sixteen infrastructure areas that Russia must not attack. Who does that? Whose idea was that? This seems like a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad idea.
5. Biden's Press Conference
Question: "Now that you have established some redlines, is military response an option if there is another ransomware attack? Also, you have famously mentioned that Putin doesn't have a soul. Do you now have a better idea of him?"
Biden: "Thank you!"
6. Biden Press Conference
And that's is a wrap!
P.S. We can all just imagine it now. Putin goes home to his GRU minions and declares: "Boys, Christmas came early. Do I have a list for you?!"

U.S. Catholic bishops passed a controversial proposal on communion, advancing a push to deny President Biden the sacrament for his stance on abortion."
NYT excoriates Catholic bishops for this decision (73% voted in favor), likening Biden to Pope.
NYT has its own view of what Catholicism ought to be about today, as they impute the Pope's views on Christianity:
"Mr. Biden, like Pope Francis, embodies a liberal Christianity focused less on sexual politics and more on racial inequality, climate change and poverty." -- NYT
NYT is Livid
"The move to target a president, who has regularly attended Mass throughout his life, is striking coming from Catholic leaders, particularly after many conservative Catholics turned a blind eye to the sexual improprieties of former President Donald J. Trump." -- NYT
Unemployment Insurance fraud is not easy to pull off because of the involvement of employers, but it's still rampant. One rapper who boasted on YouTube about making a lot of money from UI fraud was charged with stealing $1.2 million in jobless benefits.
“As much as $400 billion may have been lost to fraud by way of falsified claims for COVID-related unemployment benefits," says Congressman Gary Palmer. "Identity theft has become rampant and foreign crime rings have stolen hundreds of billions of dollars."
"This is one of the greatest thefts of American tax dollars in history, totaling more than the entire 2021 budgets of the Army and Navy combined, and more than the combined budgets of eight states."
Does anyone still want to argue that govt knows better how to spend our money?
This is an utter and complete lie. Who has looked at the mutations that the coronavirus underwent in making a jump from the bats to the humans? Nobody. Those mutations cannot be found. This was a lie when Fauci said it. Question is did he lie willfully or was he duped.
"A day before the teleconference [on 1/31/20], Kristian Andersen, an expert in infectious disease genomics at the Scripps Research Translational Institute in California, had told Fauci that the genetic structure of the virus looked like it might have been engineered in a lab."
Does this sound like prominent virologists agreeing the virus did not come from a lab?
Dr. Fauci clearly and unequivocally lied in the above segment.
"I expected that I was paying this fortune to learn how to think. But they're forcing you to think the way they want you to think. I realized, wow, this is insane. I thought America was different but I saw so many similarities to N Korea that I started worrying." -- Yeonmi Park
Those similarities include anti-Western sentiment, collective guilt and suffocating political correctness.
Yeonmi saw red flags immediately upon arriving at the school.
During orientation, she was scolded for admitting she enjoyed classic literature such as Jane Austen.
If there was high motivation to engineer this virus and it is not all that difficult to engineer, then why is it so hard to believe it could have been engineered? This is not evidence of the virus having been engineered, but why is it "highly unlikely" to have been engineered?
Experts like Scott Gottlieb (who didn't become a darling of the pharma industry and govt bureaucrats alike without knowing which side his bread is buttered) are spouting a bunch of technical jargon, followed by an ad-hoc opinion: "it's highly unlikely the virus was engineered."
Fauci's credibility is shot with millions and he has made some very flawed calls, but I can tell you this: Delta variant of Covid-19 is indeed a far deadlier strain and the fact that Pfizer & Moderna vaccines are very effective against it is terrific news. cnbc.com/2021/06/08/fau…
The Delta variant accounts for 60% of new cases in the U.K. In the U.S., it is more than 6% of cases scientists have been able to sequence, but the actual number is likely higher.
The Delta variant is the dominant strain in India and it is wreaking absolute havoc there. I personally know of a 10-year old girl who got it and was hospitalized, spent two weeks in ICU. Thank God, she survived. So this strain is nothing to mess about.
