Eighty-Year-Old Joe Biden Officially Announces Re-Election Bid

Eighty-year-old Democrat Joe Biden officially confirmed on Tuesday morning that he will be seeking a second term as President of the United States despite the vast majority of Americans believing that he should not run again.

Two weeks after leaking his intentions to run in the 2024 elections to Al Roker on the Today Show during an Easter Egg hunt at the White House, President Joe Biden has made it official, with a video posted to his social media accounts.

“Every generation has a moment where they have had to stand up for democracy. To stand up for their fundamental freedoms. I believe this is ours,” Biden wrote.

“That’s why I’m running for reelection as President of the United States. Join us. Let’s finish the job.”

At 80 years old, Biden is already the oldest president in American history and would be 86 by the end of a potential second term in the White House.

Finish what job!? 
Do they mean the total destruction of the United States of America? 
Becoming unreliable allies for Israel, Saudi Arabia and Taiwan? 

Marianne Williamson Joins RFK Jr. in Slamming DNC
for No Debates During Democrat Primary

“The DNC ‘plans no primary debates.’ As though there simply ARE no other candidates,” she tweeted early Monday morning, referring to reports that the DNC will not be scheduling any debates for the Democrat presidential primary despite two people already in the race looking to challenge President Joe Biden.

“No other ideas we should discuss about ways to win in 2024, or other ideas we should discuss about ways to repair the country,” she added.
...
Williamson’s remarks came hours after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made a nearly hour-long radio appearance on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Sunday, where he criticized the DNC for not scheduling debates and moving voting in South Carolina ahead of New Hampshire on the calendar.
...
“President Biden didn’t do well there [New Hampshire]; he came in fifth. So they took New Hampshire, and they kicked it out of first place. And now they’re gonna say — they’re saying that they’re going to completely remove the delegates from New Hampshire, and that we should be at this point in history,” he explained.

Video Allegedly Shows Illegal Chinese Police Station Chief
Mingling with Eric Adams, Schumer

A report published on Monday claimed that New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) appeared hobnobbing at a political event in a video alongside “Harry” Lu Jianwang, arrested last week on federal charges for allegedly running an illegal Chinese police station in New York City.

The video — according to Fox News, which published the story — was recorded on March 18 and allegedly shows Lu chatting with Adams and Schumer at a fundraiser for a nonprofit group called the Fukien American Association. Fox News claimed it was not the first time Lu was seen cultivating ties with New York City’s Democrat Party elites:

In April 2022, Lu also met New York Democratic Rep. Grace Meng at a fundraising event, according to The Daily Caller, citing images the outlet found.

Records show that since 2006, Lu has contributed at least $32,625 to New York elected officials, including Adams and New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul.

A spokesman for Mayor Adams said he does not know Lu personally but confirmed that Adams was present at the Fukien American Association event, stating he was there to “show support for a local community” rather than to endorse the association itself.

According to the Daily Caller, Lu met with Adams “on a number of occasions” before the fundraiser, including “anniversary celebrations for America Changle Association,” the nonprofit organization that allegedly served as a front for the secret Chinese police station. The FBI raided the offices of the America Changle Association in January.

Lu also donated $4,000 to Adams’ mayoral campaign under a pseudonym, according to the Daily Caller.

Reps. Tom Tiffany, Lance Gooden Propose Bill
to Shutter Chinese NYC Consulate After Illegal Police Station Scandal

Congressmen Tom Tiffany (R-WI) and Lance Gooden (R-TX) will introduce legislation on Tuesday tasking leftist President Joe Biden with shutting down the Chinese Consulate General and Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in New York, a move meant to counter transnational repression and espionage by Beijing.

The bill, as obtained by Breitbart News on Monday, is only two pages long and would require Biden to “take such actions as may be necessary to — (1) provide for the closure of the Consulate General … and the expulsion of all diplomatic personnel assigned to that mission by not later than 72 hours after the date of the enactment of this Act.” Similarly, the bill would require the executive to shut down the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in New York and cancel “the visas or other entry documentation of all personnel assigned to that Office who are citizens of the People’s Republic of China.”

The consulate serves as a diplomatic outpost for China. The Hong Kong office exists to provide certain trade privileges to the port city as a result of the “One Country, Two Systems” policy, which — between 1997 and 2020 — allowed Hong Kong to govern itself as a free, capitalist society autonomous from Beijing.

Antony Blinken Claims Only ‘Some Dozen’ of Estimated
16,000 Americans in Sudan Want to Leave

Over the weekend, President Joe Biden evacuated under 100 personnel from the U.S. embassy in Khartoum, Sudan, amid escalating violence between two rival groups.

The administration boasted about the success of the evacuation, which was conducted Saturday with the help of about 100 U.S. special operations forces, but acknowledged it left American citizens behind and would not be militarily evacuating them.

Under Secretary for Management Ambassador John Bass told reporters on Saturday evening, as reported by Breitbart News, “As a result of that uncertain security picture, as a result of the unavailability of the civilian airport, we don’t foresee coordinating a U.S. Government evacuation for our fellow citizens in Sudan at this time or in the coming days.” Bass was on the ground in Afghanistan at the time of that withdrawal, which also left thousands of Americans stranded.

Blinken on Monday claimed that the U.S. did not know how many Americans were on the ground in Sudan and that only “some dozen” have said they want to leave.
...
He said he did know the number of Americans registered with the U.S. embassy but did not offer a figure.

“We’re in very active touch communication. And of those, I would say some dozen this have expressed an interest in leaving,” he said.

Alleged Pentagon Leaks Say ISIS Regrouping
in Afghanistan, Angering Taliban

Documents allegedly procured from a trove of Department of Defense leaks suggest the Islamic State’s Afghanistan operation, ISIS-Khorasan, has strengthened markedly under Taliban rule and is consistently plotting attacks around the world, the Washington Post claimed this weekend.

ISIS-Khorasan, or ISIS-K, has taken responsibility for multiple terrorist attacks in Afghanistan since leftist President Joe Biden abandoned the country to the Taliban, another jihadist terror outfit, in August 2021. Several of those attacks have targeted Chinese interests in the country, which have expanded as the Taliban seeks investment from the Communist Party, disregarding China’s ongoing genocide against Muslim people on the countries’ mutual border. Taliban officials enthusiastically reject all indications that the Islamic State is a threat to the stability of Afghanistan, however, and have repeatedly claimed that ISIS simply does not have a presence in the country.

Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid condemned the Washington Post’s reporting as based on a “fake document” in an extensive statement posted to Twitter on Sunday, declaring that ISIS “has been severely defeated and is in the process of being eliminated.”
...
The Afghan documents, the left-wing newspaper reported, included warnings that ISIS-K has returned to “aspirational plotting” against America and Europe. The documents in question are allegedly assessments of the group by experts at the Defense Department.
