The Biden Presidency - The End Of An Error - Part Two

 This is the next in a series of posts today themed under the title, “The Biden Presidency - The End Of An Error,” In our opinion, Biden has been, by far, the worst President in the past 100 years or so. His list of failures is amazingly long, his list of successes and accomplishments is quite literally void of anything worthwhile.


The first post in this series can be accessed at:


https://loathemygovernment.blogspot.com/2025/01/the-biden-presidency-end-of-error-part-1.html


The next few posts will list the failures that have been documented by other Americans. Obviously, there will be some overlap across different writers but at the end of the day, one thing will be clear: the country and its citizens are in far worse shape than they were in January, 2021 when Biden took office.


So as Biden leaves office, let’s walk down memory line and remember the “End of an Error,”  courtesy of the Libs Of Tik Tok:


In a recent Post On X they laid out a short list of Biden’s failures:


Libs of Tik TOk


Biden’s parting gift to America:


- $6 billion to Ukraine

- Sparing the lives of 9/11 masterminds

- $1 billion for the Ecuadorian Amazon

- $1 billion to African nations

- pardoning and commuting sentences of p*dos, k*llers, and spies

- Islamic t*rrorist attack


January 20th can’t come soon enough.


The Libs Of Tik Tok uncovered some aspects of Biden’s failed administration that we had not covered:


  • Issuing pardons to many bad people that had committed heinous crimes and murders.

  • Sending billions and billions of dollars to Ukraine.

  • Sending billions of dollars to dozens of countries around the world, countries that are not limited to Ecuador and Africa, for stupid and senseless projects.


Thus, the above list, along with what we discussed in the first post in this series, is why we conclude that Biden presided over the worst Presidency in the past hundred years and maybe longer. Given his lack of strategic thinking, his failed policies, his declining cognitive state from before the 2020 election, his assembling of probably the weakest and least creative and least productive Cabinet in a long time, and his desire to take vacation after vacation away from the problems of the country make him the epitome of a failed administration.


More opinions on his Presidency in the coming days.

Biden's Failed Immigration Policies and the Death and Violence It Has Caused To Americans - Part 2

 We have often discussed the reality that Biden’s border policies have been an unbelievable failure. Illegal drugs are flooding into the country, violent South and Central American gangs setting up shop in  U.S. cities, and local city and state budgets are being adjusted so that illegal immigrants can be fed, sheltered, and given medical attention, stealing government services from American taxpayers.


But one particularly distressing and tragic result of Biden’s failed immigration policies is the danger that have befallen innocent Americans at the hands of violent illegal immigrants who never should have been admitted to the country. This is not to say there should be no immigration into this country.  But there has to be a rigid screening process so that violent people do not get into the country and carry out heinous, often fatal, attacks on innocent Americans.


The first set of sad stories relative to the dangers to Americans can be accessed at:


https://loathemygovernment.blogspot.com/2024/07/bidens-failed-immigration-policies-and.html


1)On February 22, 2024, University of Georgia nursing student, Laken Riley, went out for a midday jog. Unfortunately, she never came back since Jose Antonio Ibarra, an  illegal immigrant from Venezuela, came across her path, and that encounter allegedly led to Ms. Riley's death.


Ibarra is charged with killing her and as a result has been charged with 10 criminal charges: felony murder, malice murder, false imprisonment, and aggravated assault with intent to rape and kidnap. Her body was found in a nearby park and the cause of death was determined to be blunt force trauma and asphyxiation.


The suspect illegally entered the country in 2022 under Biden’s watch and was living in an apartment about a mile from where the body was found. He has had multiple arrests by state and Federal law enforcement authorities and at least once failed to appear in court for a shoplifting case.


So sad that a law-abiding, young lady could not go out in the  middle of the day for a jog without being brutally accosted and killed.


2)Let’s leave this tragedy in Georgia and skip up to New York City:


  • Christian Inga has been arrested and charged with a violent sexual attack on a child.

  • He is alleged to have come across two 13 year olds in a field, forcing them into the woods at knifepoint, tied them up and then sexually assaulted the 13 year old girl.

  • Inga is allegedly an illegal immigrant from Ecuador who entered the country on Biden’s watch in June, 2021.

  • To make this episode of illegal immigrant even  more disgusting, there are news stories that he allegedly recorded himself sexually assaulting the victim.


Fortunately, people in the neighborhood recognized the suspect and apprehended him, keeping him under control until police arrived.


3)Let’s keep heading north, up to Massachusetts:


  • Cory B. Alvarez is an illegal immigrant from Haiti.

  • He has been  charged in the suspected rape of a 15 year old teenage girl in a shelter in Rockland, Massachusetts.

  • Despite facing multiple counts of rape he was released on a measly bail of only $500 despite the local district attorney wanted at least a $10,000 bail and conditions for his release.

  • But the judge went with only a $500  cash  bail.

  • Back in March, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issued a detainer order for him but since Boston is a “sanctuary city,” city officials refused to honor the order and turn Alvarrez over to the Feds.

  • The unnamed source within ICE opined: “The dumba– judges are the ones causing a lot of these issues by ignoring the root of the problem. California, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, and other blue states all do this bulls–t. If we run records checks on people out of those states, they have policies that are in place to prevent sharing of any information.”


Apparently in some areas of the country, local  politicians are more worried about protecting illegal immigrants than they are in protecting the innocent perpetrated by a sub-segment of the  illegal immigrants Biden has let walk  into the  country.


4)Back to New York:


  • Illegal  immigrant, Jhon  Moises Chacaguassay-Ibis is accused of murdering illegal immigrant, Joselyn Jhoana Toaquiza, in Syracuse this past June 18th.

  • He has been arrested and charged with second degree murder and concealment of a human corpse.

  • Both were in this country illegally and were from Ecuador.

  • He buried her body in a shallow grave and then took a bus to NYC where he turned himself in.


Another sad tale of violence from an illegal  immigrant.


5)Down in  Irving, Texas, police arrested Oved Bernardo Mendoza Argueta for allegedly shooting up a Chick-fil-A restaurant, a shooting spree that killed two people. His wife works at the fast food location and identified her husband as the shooter to police.


According to police, Argueta was under an  “ICE hold” which implies he is in this country illegally and should have been detained by the Feds. Unfortunately, before he could be detained, he killed two people.


6)But it is no just innocent Americans who have been attacked and killed by violent illegal immigrants:


  • Recently, two New York Police Department officers were shot by a 19 year old  illegal immigrant from, where else, Venezuela.

  • Bernardo Raul Castro Mata was driving a scooter the wrong way down a one-way street when police officers tried to stop him.

  • As a result of firing a gun at them he is now in custody and facing two attempted first degree murder charges.

  • News reports claimed he was a member of a local illegal  immigrant gang that was wanted for robberies in the city.

  • He had been arrested multiple times previously and had two stolen credit cards in his possession when  arrested.

  • According to CBS News: “According to court documents, Mata, who lived in a migrant shelter and remains in custody at Bellevue Hospital, told detectives he's a member of a Venezuelan gang and that guns are smuggled into shelters through food delivery packages to avoid metal detectors. He also said it's common practice for Tren de Aragua members to shoot at police officers because Venezuelan officers shoot at gang members for minor infractions. However, he plead not guilty, claiming the gun wasn't his and it accidentally went off during the encounter with police.”


But according to the Biden administration,, there is nothing to worry about recent, given comments by Biden’s Department of Homeland Security Secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas: "We screen and vet individuals.” I would bet that Laken Riley’s family and friends, and the hundreds or thousands of other American  families that have had family members killed, raped, and attacked by illegal immigrants might disagree with Mr. Mayorkas’ assertion. If Mayorkas is screening and vetting illegal immigrants, he is obviously not doing a good job.

April; 2013 Global warming Skeptic Update, Part 1: Global Warming Excperts Start To Doubt Themselves, China Invades Ecuador Oil Fields

Today we will catch up on a topic we have not discussed in a while, global warming, or its new marketing term, “climate change.” We have discussed our skepticism about this concept any number of times in the past. Those discussions were really caused by the fact that many advocates and believers of global warming were the most obnoxious and condescending types around. If you did not believe what they believed, you were an idiot, a fool, an ecological Nazi, and plain stupid, both from a science perspective and a common sense perspective. Just ask a ranting and raving Al Gore.

This is obviously no way to make a point, win an argument, or resolve a problem. Insults do not produce cooperation and understanding, it just makes the other side more entrenched in what they believe.

This is especially true when we pointed out a number of “facts” and realities that global warming advocates seem to ignore since it does not fit into their preconceived, close-minded views:
  • Many scientific, well researched studies actually debunk the notion of global warming.
  • The government’s own measures of global warming indicate that the globe has not gotten any warmer over the past fifteen years.
  • The Obama administration refused to publish a report from its own EPA scientists that brought into doubt many of the standard global warming arguments and premises.
  • The scientific leaders in supporting global warming theories actually conspired via hacked emails to change their findings since the reality of non-global warming did not match up to their theories of global warming.
  • The premier physics institute in the world, the CERN Institute, reported findings in the summer of 2011, findings that were published in a leading scientific journal but were ignored by the mainstream press, that proved in a lab environment that if there was global warming, it was caused by excessive sun activity, not man made activity, which made mankind’s attempt to reduce the warming inconsequential.
  • And finally, even if man made global warming exists, any solo U.S. attempt to fix it is a vain attempt unless the big global warming gas producers, India, China, etc., also curtail their current energy activities since any changes the U.S. makes would not overcome the increased, opposite activity of these countries.
Our past discussions of global warming’s myths can be found at the following posts:

http://loathemygovernment.blogspot.com/2010/01/global-warming-some-rtandom-but-major.html

Given these previous discussions, let’s check in and see what has happened since:

1) A Newsmax article from March 30, 2013 reviewed the conclusions in an editorial in the recent issue of the Economist magazine, a highly regarded publication, and a publication that has long been a strong advocate and believer of global warming:
  • Global warming predictions haven’t panned out as predicted in the past decade and the reasons for the discrepancies are unknown.
  • The editorial notes that even though greenhouse gas emissions have soared during the past 15 years, with 100 billion tons of carbon having been added to the atmosphere between 2000 and 2010, both air and ground temperatures during that time have remained unchanged.
  • Surface temperatures have been at the lower end of the projected range of various global warming models since 2005.
  • If the temps remain flat, they may shortly actually begin to fall below projections.
  • “The mismatch between rising greenhouse-gas emissions and not-rising temperatures is among the biggest puzzles in climate science just now,” The Economist said.
  • The magazine proposes several reasons that might explain why temperatures have leveled off including a temporary lag between more carbon dioxide and rising temperatures between 2000 and 2010, the rising temperatures in the 1990s might have been a fluke and there is no global warming going on, or the climate is responding to higher CO2 levels in ways that scientists haven’t understood.
The Newsmax article notes that buried deep in the Economist’s highly technical editorial is the admission “natural variations in the earth’s climate likely play a bigger role than scientific models have said.” Sounds a lot like what the smart people at CERN have found out.

Yes, global warming may exist. But as the Economist points out, something is not right, something in the models and assumptions are not tight, so calling a skeptic anything other than a skeptic is foolish and disrespectful to those that actually look at all pieces of information available about a problem or possible problem.

2) On March 28, 2013, a Business Insider article that appeared on the Yahoo Finance website reported that the government of Ecuador was planning to auction off three million of the country' 8.1 hectares of pristine Amazonian rainforest to Chinese oil companies for exploration and drilling. A probable reason for this deal, beyond China’s need for more and more energy sources, is explained in the article:
  • As of last summer, Ecuador owed China more than $7 billion.
  • This debt is more than a tenth of its GDP.
  • In 2009 China began loaning Ecuador billions of dollars in exchange for oil shipments.
  • China also helped fund two of the country's biggest hydroelectric infrastructure projects.
  • China National Petroleum Corp may soon have a 30% stake in a $10  billion oil refinery in Ecuador.
The debt issue may have been the main reason why China is now so deeply entrenched in the country from an oil perspective and why the local government was willing to overlook its rules, laws, and regulations regarding the exploitation of the area and the native tribes that live there.

The bottom line from a global warming perspective, as we discussed above, is that China is moving full steam ahead on fossil fuels on a number of fronts, with the Ecuador situation just being one area. Any U.S. global warming curtailment activity has to be met with a tamping down of these kinds of fossil fuel activities from China or our activity will be fruitless.

3) Consider another observation from an industry expert and global warming advocate. Despite the fact that we’ve added 100 billion tons of carbon to the atmosphere in the last decade, temperatures haven’t jumped, as explained above by the Economist editorial.

As David Whitehouse of the Global Warming Policy Foundation notes, this runs completely counter to how things should be playing out if global warming is occurring: “The global temperature standstill shows that climate models are diverging from observations. If we have not passed it already, we are on the threshold of global observations becoming incompatible with the consensus theory of climate change.”

This is just the first part of our global warming update, the second half will follow tomorrow. But today we learned that even some of global warming’s long time advocates (the Economist and an official of the Global Warming Policy Foundation) are taking the brave stands to point out that they may have been wrong and that the global warming models are not panning out.

We learned China is moving full steam ahead to expand its use of fossil fuels, a main culprit of global warming advocates, making any solo, unilateral global warming by the U.S. on carbon taxes, cap and trade, or other such initiatives ineffective to global warming theory and damaging to the U.S. economy.

More of the same tomorrow from a believer in science but a global warming skeptic along with a solution to make everyone on both sides of this issue happy.
