These are direct quotes from one of the Executive Orders itself.
Process this…
“Section 1. Policy. Every person should be treated with respect and dignity and should be able to live without fear, no matter who they are or whom they love. Children should be able to learn without worrying about whether they will be denied access to the restroom, the locker room, or school sports.”
“In Bostock v. Clayton County, 590 U.S. ___ (2020), the Supreme Court held that Title VII’s prohibition on discrimination “because of . . . sex” covers discrimination on the basis of gender identity and sexual orientation. Under Bostock‘s reasoning, laws that prohibit sex discrimination — including Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, as amended (20 U.S.C. 1681 et seq.), the Fair Housing Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 3601 et seq.), and section 412 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, as amended (8 U.S.C. 1522), along with their respective implementing regulations — prohibit discrimination on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation, so long as the laws do not contain sufficient indications to the contrary.”
Biden Promises 100 Million Covid-19 Vaccinations In First 100 Days, Warning That Trump’s Approach Would Take ‘Years’ – Forbes.com – December 29, 2020 1
The article went on to say “President-elect Joe Biden said Tuesday that the Trump Administration’s efforts to vaccinate millions of American people against Covid-19 are falling “far behind” what is needed to control the pandemic, pledging to invoke the Defense Production Act and launch vaccine education campaigns to accelerate the process and deliver 100 million vaccinations in his first 100 days in office.”
This would be huge. I think we need to celebrate Biden right now, because as Biden says, he clearly has a vision that Trump can’t match.
Yesterday on C-Span3, reported by the NYPost.com – Biden was asked, “shouldn’t you set the bar higher, that’s pretty much where we are right now?” So, the question is, if his plan of 100 million people in 100 days was a goal that was set too low.
‘When I announced it, you all said it’s not possible,’ he snapped. ‘Come on, gimme a break, man! It’s a good start.’ – President Joe Biden [enf_note]https://nypost.com/2021/01/21/biden-rebukes-white-house-reporter-for-covid-19-question/[/efn_note]
As of this morning CBS News quoted the following
Fauci said another difference between the two administration’s is Mr. Biden’s commitment to honesty.2
&
Psaki, who served as White House communications director under President Barack Obama and as a spokesperson at the State Department, told reporters during her first briefing on Wednesday that she and Mr. Biden discussed prior to his inauguration the “importance of bringing truth and transparency back to the briefing room.”3
But this is her hypocrisy… when she was called out, that Trump had already delivered on 1 million inoculations a day! Psaki makes excuses. Trump just delivered!
According to Psaki, the Trump administration was given 36 million vaccine doses and administered a total of about 17 million shots, for a rate of fewer than 500,000 shots a day. ‘What we are proposing is to double that to about 1 million shots per day,’ she said, adding that the Biden team has been forming its plan to achieve this milestone ‘for some time.’4
Less than 500,000 shots a day. In the last month+ if you average across every day, including the first day where a few hundred were inoculated, it averages to 500,000 shots a day. As of December 23, 2020 – only 1 million had been inoculated. 5
Since then, under Trump’s administration, we got up to 1 million inoculations in one day as of last week.
Process this “As of Wednesday, nearly 29.4 million doses had been shipped to all 50 states and all U.S. territories. Of those, just 10.3 million — about 30% — had actually been used, CDC data shows.”6 What this means is that there are 19 days worth of doses to deliver left. Keep that same delivery pattern that Trump was up to and we have your 100 days – 100,000,000 inoculations. Biden’s promise. Trump’s delivery.
Even WebMD.com on January 20, 2021 posted the following article that was titled the following “For Biden, 100 Million Vaccinations in 100 Days Not Easy” and here is a clip of what it said – “Now, during a once-in-a-century pandemic, incoming President Joe Biden has promised to provide 100 million covid-19 vaccinations in his first 100 days in office. ‘This team will help get … at least 100 million covid vaccine shots into the arms of the American people in the first 100 days,” Biden said during a Dec. 8 news conference introducing key members of his health team.’ 7
So – GO BIDEN… Just don’t screw up what President Donald J. Trump delivered on.
John Sullivan himself has video and says that he was at the Capitol riot in D.C..
When he was asked if he was a member of antifa, as he has used the hashtag in his social media posts, Sullivan said he understands where there could be confusion.
“If people are saying I’m antifa, as far as a terrorist organization, I’m not,” he said. “Am I anti-fascist? We all are anti-fascist. And that’s what we should all strive for being. I have my own organization, Insurgence USA, and that’s what it is for. That’s really what it is.” 1
“Gaetz, other Republicans baselessly claim Antifa was involved” – CNBC2
FBI says “No indication” that antifa took part in U.S. Capitol riot – CNBC 3
Place the blame where it belongs. Trump’s rabid supporters, not antifa, stormed the Capitol. – Suzette Hackney – USA TODAY 4
Scoop: Trump falsely blames Antifa for Capitol insurrection 5
The media goes on and on and on with the same narrative. NO ANTIFA. ALL TRUMP’S INCITEMENT.
Is this true??? I think we need to define Antifa before we can really evaluate these assertions.
Quick Google search on “What is Antifa?” and this is one of the top listings today.
This is what most media is reporting – that Antifa is a “loose network of demonstrators to counter fascism and racism…”
Enter John Sullivan…
[John Sullivan]A Utah activist who faces criminal charges in connection with a Provo protest he organized in June said he attended a pro-Trump rally that turned into a violent attack on the U.S. Capitol in order to see “the truth” about the protests for himself and the organization he represents.
The article continues on…
Sullivan, who is the founder of Insurgence USA, a social justice group that calls itself ANTI-FASCIST and protests police brutality, was detained by Washington police for about an hour and a half Thursday night, a day after he talked to local and national media about what he witnessed Wednesday.
We just heard from John’s site itself that says “Anti-Fascist” but not AntiFA. So, here is what the actual word Antifa means, by another Google search:
John Sullivan says he was there and had video of Ashli Babbitt who was killed in the incident.
After making his way inside the Capitol during the riot, Sullivan said he witnessed the shooting death of protester Ashli Babbitt, and the Twitter account for Insurgence USA retweeted video from someone with Sullivan that shows the shooting and the aftermath.
“I have video of it,” he said, describing in detail seeing the flash of the gun, the bullet strike Babbitt, and Babbitt’s reaction as she died there on the floor. “I am hesitant to post it. … It’s something I have to take in. I hope that people get a grasp of that situation. Whoever shot her, maybe should be held accountable. I guess that’s up to the law to decide.”
He claims Babbitt was the first one to try and get inside what he believes was the House chamber.
John was there. He was near the frontline of this ordeal, by his own account.
Throughout the video Sullivan can be heard telling police that they shouldn’t try to stop them from going different places because he doesn’t want them to get hurt. He appears to take his gas mask off at one point, but he is not shown in his own video except for a few seconds of an 18-minute video that has now been removed from his social media accounts.
As we started with, John himself states that he is “anti-fascist.” but there is more to it.
On Friday, Sullivan acknowledged that he was afraid at some points, but he denies trying to incite violence. In fact, he insists he was only trying to diffuse situations he saw as potentially volatile.
BUT…
Sullivan, 26, faces two criminal charges stemming from a protest he organized in Provo last June.
Charging documents say Sullivan recorded several hours of the protest and is seen in the recordings “kicking vehicles and threatening drivers” and directing protesters to block intersections. During that protest, a Provo man, 60, was shot in the elbow after protesters blocked his vehicle. Sullivan later admitted to police that he knew who the gunman was but failed to report it to authorities, according to the charges.
Let’s just end with this and you be the judge.
But some of the 40-minute video he posted to his social media sites contradicts his assertion that he and another woman were “only filming” the actions and not participating as he can be heard in the video encouraging people to join them as they push their way through police barricades.
When asked about some of the things he said during the 40-minute video, he said, “When you’re in a massive crowd like that, you have to blend in.” – John Sullivan – Insurgence USA – #Antifa
Getting people “numb” to the idea. First, it’s a PBS staff attorney, then it’s representatives in Congress and by the time anyone knows what’s happening – “they” start carting Republican kids away… or worse. Just going to share the facts on this one. You decide. This seems to be getting a lot of publications and people are talking about it and saying, “why not?”
If The Guardian is your new source, these are the facts…
Melania Trump broke her silence on the attack on the Capitol on Monday – to issue a statement saying that she honored all those who died, including four supporters of her husband, who incited the mob to violent action. 1
Melania’s statement says “…my heart goes out to” 4 people by name “and the Capitol Police Officers” – both by name. Then she said, “I pray for their families comfort and strength during this difficult time.” She didn’t mention they were supporters of her husband and she didn’t mention that they were incited to violence. That was all added as literary license by Martin Pengelly in New York as listed in the post.
…she also used the opportunity to portray herself as a victim, saying the shocking and violent attack on one of the hearts of American democracy had led to “salacious gossip, unwarranted personal attacks and false misleading accusations” about her.
Make no mistake, Melania is no victim. This is exactly what she said, “I am disappointed and disheartened with what happened last week. I find it shameful that surrounding these tragic events there has been salacious gossip, unwarranted personal attacks, and false misleading accusations on me – from people who are looking to be relevant and have an agenda. This time is solely about healing our country and its citizens. It should not be used for personal gain. Our Nation must heal in a civil manner. Make no mistake about it, I absolutely condemn the violence that has occurred on our Nation’s Capitol. Violence is never acceptable.” 2 How about let’s just let her words stand, rather than this Martin guy trying to obtain personal gain with his op-ed.
Donald Trump continues to refuse to admit the reality of his electoral defeat by Joe Biden, although he has conceded that he will leave office on 20 January.
Mixture of truth and fiction. “Refuse to admit the reality” is what Martin seems to want us to believe. but then Martin takes it one step further “although he has conceded that he will leave office on 20 January.” Cite your sources Martin. The word “concede” has not passed the lips of Trump. You are entitled to your own opinions, but you are not entitled to your own facts.
