🤔 President Joe Biden is contradicting himself?
📽 Footage from 2003 of then-Senator Joe Biden shows him passionately arguing for nation-building in Afghanistan.
🗣 “In some parts of the administration, nation-building is still a dirty phrase. But the alternative to nation-building is chaos, a chaos that churns out bloodthirsty warlords, drug traffickers and terrorists. We’ve seen it happen in Afghanistan before and I am quite frankly fearful that it may happen again.”
🇦🇫 This is in sharp contrast to his claims on Wednesday during his in-depth interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos that he has been a strong opponent of the practice all along, insisting that toppling the Taliban and nation-building were not among the policy objectives that America set for itself in Afghanistan after 9/11.
🤨 So which one is it, Joe?

🖋 Pentagon journalist Jennifer Griffin:
"The president also said that there is no national security interest, no national interest in Afghanistan. I'm a little confused by that. Can you explain why there is no national interest in Afghanistan? Why did we have troops there for 20 years if there is no national interest in Afghanistan?"
🇦🇫 Is President Joe Biden confused again?

🚔📄A Florida couple was arrested in Hawaii last week after allegedly using fake COVID-19 vaccination cards.
According to court documents, Enzo and Daniela Dalmazzo falsified vaccination cards for themselves and their two children, who are five and four years old. However, vaccines have not yet been approved for kids under 12.
"The screener at the airport when they came through noticed an anomaly about the age of the children and the vaccine," Special Agent Joe Logan from the Hawaii Attorney General's Office said. "And that's how we got involved."
The Dalmazzos were jailed but have since been released after paying bail of $8,000.

The US Supreme Court on Friday temporarily blocked a judge’s order calling for the reinstatement of the Trump administration’s "Remain in Mexico" immigration policy after it was halted by President Biden.
Justice Samuel Alito issued a temporary stay that will be in effect until Tuesday night so he and other Supreme Court justices can review the filings submitted in the case. This comes one day after the US Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit in New Orleans denied a Biden administration request that the reinstatement of the Trump-era immigration policy be delayed.

🌾Ultra-wealthy American magnates like Bill Gates and Thomas Peterffy are increasingly buying “safe assets” in the form of farmland.
In 2020, Gates became the largest private farmland owner in the US, accumulating more than 269,000 acres. His farmland, spanning nearly 20 states, is used to cultivate things like carrots, soybeans, and potatoes, with the largest holdings in Louisiana (69,071 acres), Arkansas (47,927 acres), and Nebraska (20,588 acres).
According to the US Department of Agriculture, about 30 percent of farmland in the country is rented out by owners who serve as landlords and aren’t involved in farming, like Gates. Purchases are often made from cash poor farmers who have owned the land for decades.
