“A hundred and twenty days. Give me a break. Need time,” Biden said.

🎤 During the G-7 summit in Cornwall, England, Biden was asked by a journalist how he plans to negotiate with European allies.

But before leaving the podium, Biden cut the questioner off mid-sentence and effectively begged off the inquiry.

🧐 How many breaks should the president be given before he starts to act?

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America

I have accepted the invitation of Texas Governor Greg Abbott to join him on an official visit to our Nation’s decimated Southern Border on Wednesday, June 30, 2021.

The Biden Administration inherited from me the strongest, safest, and most secure border in U.S history and in mere weeks they turned it into the single worst border crisis in U.S history. It’s an unmitigated disaster zone.

We went from detain-and-remove to catch-and-release. We went from having border security that was the envy of the world to a lawless border that is now pitied around the world. Biden and Harris have handed control of our border over to cartels, criminals, and coyotes. Drug dealers, MS-13 gang members, human smugglers, sex traffickers, and the criminal elements of the world now have free reign. Hospitals and schools are getting crushed and public health is being sacrificed all in service of a radical left anti-borders agenda. Our brave border agents and courageous ICE officers have been illegally stopped from doing their jobs. Our Nation is now one giant sanctuary city where even dangerous criminals are being cut loose and set free inside the U.S interior on a daily basis.

If this weren’t bad enough, Biden and Harris won’t even tour the scenes of the wreckage they created, or come down and visit with the Border Patrol and ICE heroes risking their lives to defend our Nation at a time when the White House is doing everything it can to make their job totally impossible.

What Biden and Harris have done, and are continuing to do on our border, is a grave and willful dereliction of duty.

My visit will hopefully shine a spotlight on these crimes against our Nation—and show the incredible people of ICE and Border Patrol that they have our unshakeable support.

Media credentialing information will be provided at a later date.

Remember these guys?

📝 Two GOP lawmakers announced they have filed a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of fines issued against them for failing to complete their security screenings to enter the House chamber.

Republican Reps. Louie Gohmert of Texas and Andrew Clyde claim that Sergeant-at-Arms William Walker and Chief Administrative Officer Catherine Szpindor in the course of their official duties violated the 27th Amendment of the US Constitution which states, “No law varying the compensation for the services of the Senators and Representatives shall take effect until an election of Representatives shall have intervened.”

#URGENT US Judge blocks Biden Admin's Suspension of New Oil, gas leases on Federal land, Waters
👨‍⚖️ District Judge Terry Doughty granted a preliminary injunction to 13 states who allege that the Biden administration's suspension bypasses a number of bureaucratic steps and subsequently violated several laws, including the Administrative Procedure Act.
The suit also claims that a number of energy sector jobs are endangered by the now-months-long suspension imposed by the administration.

🇺🇸🇷🇺The bilateral meeting of US and Russian presidents Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin in Geneva will begin on Wednesday at 13:35 local time (11:35 GMT), according to Biden's daily schedule shared by the White House.
🦠 A new study has found that the COVID-19 coronavirus was circulating in the United States several weeks before the first documented cases were identified, paralleling the first detected cases in China, where the outbreak is commonly believed to have begun.

The study found that in five states - Illinois, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin - seven people who gave blood samples had antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. Three were from Illinois and were delivered on January 7, 17 days before the first case was identified on January 24.

Does this undermine the theory that the virus originated in China?
