KILLING AMERICA

BIDEN’S PRESIDENCY FAILURE, WEAKNESS, AND FAR LEFT POLICIES Biden has no plan to fix his self-made crises and make America great again. President Biden, Speaker Pelosi, and Congressional Democrats’ far-left, socialist policies are hurting middle class families, destroying the economy, raising our cost of living, and damaging our relationships with our international allies. Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin is launching an all-out invasion of Ukraine, which will have enormous consequences in the United States. The American people are suffering because

of President Biden’s broken promises and weak leadership.

Biden inflation is Crippling American’s Personal Finances Thanks to President Biden’s out-ofcontrol spending and destructive economic policies, inflation has reached its highest level in 40 years,

with the Consumer Price Index rising by 7.5 percent from January 2020 to January 2021, and double that from January 2021 to January 2022 . Gas prices are at an all time ranging anywhere from $ 4.90 to $6.99 and are expected to rise to $10.00 per gallon before the end of the year . The gas shortages eventually will create gas lines and gas limitations. As a necessary first step, House Republican Whip Steve Scalise called on President Biden to immediately reverse his anti-

American energy policies. This is crucial for America’s economy and national security alike. The Keystone XL pipeline would have created thousands of jobs, helped maintain the United States’ global dominance, and transport oil from Canada, an ally and one of the world’s cleanest oil producers, to U.S. refineries. An increase in the cost of everyday goods and services disproportionately hurts lower-income families. Real average hourly earnings have

decreased by 1.7 percent because of inflation. On top of rising prices for everyday goods, costs for other essential services like health care are also rising. Seniors are seeing the largest ever Medicare Part B premium increase in 2022.

Disrespect for America President Biden’s weak leadership and lack of foreign policy strategy have crippled the United States’ power and influence on the world stage. Afghanistan has fallen to the Taliban, China has ramped up its aggression against Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the Uyghurs, and now, Russia has invaded Ukraine.

With No Rule of Law, Illegal Immigration and Crime Surge Since President Biden assumed control of the White House, more than 2.3 million illegal immigrants have been apprehended attempting to enter the United States. This number surpasses the population of Houston, Texas – the fourth-largest city in America. In January 2022, U.S. Customs and Border Protection experienced its worst January in history – with 153,941 migrant encounters. One year earlier, in January 2021, there were 78,414 migrant encounters. This is a 96.3 percent increase. In President Biden’s first 100 days in office, he issued more than 94 executive actions on immigration, including halting the construction of President Trump’s border wall and endingthe Trump Administration’s successful “Remain in Mexico” policy.

Democrats’ discontent for the rule of law enforcement extends well beyond their efforts to open America’s borders and give mass amnesty to illegal immigrants. Violent crime and murders are increasing because Democrat-run cities slashed funding for their police departments and implemented anti-law enforcement policies that incentivize malicious behavior and let vicious criminals back into their communities. The statistics speak for themselves – Democrats’ far-left rhetoric, policies, and actions have jeopardized the safety of our nation’s law enforcement officers and vulnerable communities.

Small Business Crisis Regular Americans are paying the price and experiencing the consequences of the Biden Administration’s failing transportation policies. In a survey conducted by the National Federation of Independent Business, 64 percent of small businesses

President Biden, Speaker Pelosi, and Congressional Democrats have championed mask mandates in schools, even when there were no clear benefits for children. Republicans have said from the beginning that mask mandates do more harm to children than good.Children need to see facial expressions in order to understand emotions, process language, and learn word pronunciation. The Biden Administration’s vaccine and masking mandates and extended lockdowns have been devastating for America’s children and the parents who care for them . BOTTOM LINE: Instead of defeating COVID-19 and unifying the country like he promised, President Biden has worsened our divisions and made Americans poorer and less safe than when he assumed office. Under the Democrats’ control of Congress and the White House, energy costs and the price of everyday goods have skyrocketed, our enemies no longer fear us, violent crime is on the rise, our supply chain is broken, and unvaccinated and untested illegal immigrants are welcomed into the United States while deadly fentanyl flows over our open border. Congress has a responsibility to correct President Biden’s spineless leadership and prioritize parents, workers, and small businesses.

Chargers Report:

Expectations Run High For Herbert in 2022 After winning the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2020 by producing 4,336 passing yards, 31 touchdowns and 10 interceptions, Herbert surpassed those numbers last season by passing for 5,014 yards and 38 touchdowns in 17 games. He also added 302 rushing yards with three scores en route to a Pro Bowl selection. Herbert is the first player in NFL history to throw 30+ touchdowns in his first two seasons and he did so under two different head coaches and offensive systems. Entering his second year in offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi’s scheme, many believe he can contend for league MVP if he leads the team to the playoffs. Recently, CBS Sports’ Pete Prisco ranked his top 100 NFL players with Herbert coming in at No. 20.

“If Mahomes is the magician and Allen is the supersized duel threat, then Herbert is the prototypical pocket passer,” CBS Sports’ Cody Benjamin. Prior to the opening of free agency, Around the NFL Editor Greg Rosenthal ranked every starting quarterback in the league based on the 2021 stats they posted. With former Seahawks’ QB Russell Wilson now manning the Broncos, the AFC west will feature four of the top 20 quarterbacks in the NFL based on Rosenthal’s rankings. Perhaps the biggest surprise is Rosenthal has Chargers’ quarterback Justin 10

Herbert higher than both Wilson and the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes — both Super Bowl champions having twice led their teams to the big game while the Chargers have yet to make the playoffs in the two seasons Herbert has been under center. Here is the list with his 2020 rankings in parenthesis — Herbert: No. 4 (9th), Mahomes: No. 7 (3rd), Derek Carr: No. 10 (12th) and Wilson: No. 11 (11th). Rosenthal did say if he was picking one quarterback for “next season, the next five seasons or the next 10 seasons,” he’d take Mahomes.

Rosenthal isn’t the only analyst predicting big things for Herbert. On a recent episode of ESPN’s SportsCenter, reporter Jeremy Fowler said NFL personnel are expecting Herbert to be one of the top quarterbacks in the league by the end of the 2022 season. “This guy’s poised for a massive yearthree jump,” Fowler said of Herbert. “I’ve talked to a lot of people around the league who are very high-ranking and they say this guy will probably be a top-three quarterback by the end of the season.”

Said Prisco, “He’s thrown 69 touchdown passes in his first two seasons, showing off his cannon for an arm and his ability to make big plays. This could be the year he emerges as a legitimate MVP candidate.” The Endzone: Former NFL quarterback Chris Simms ranked Herbert No. 3 on his top 40 quarterback list heading into the 2022 season. “He is probably the best pure thrower of the football in the NFL,” Simms said. “When things are clean in the pocket, he never loses control of the ball and I’m not sure there is anyone better at hitting the bullseye with any kind of throw.”

Elderly Couple There was an elderly couple who in their old age noticed that they were getting a lot more forgetful, so they decided to go to the doctor. The doctor told them that they should start writing things down so they don’t forget. They went home and the old lady told her husband to get her a bowl of ice cream. “You might want to write it down,” she said. The husband said, “No, I can remember that you want a bowl of ice cream.” She then told her husband she wanted a bowl of ice cream with whipped cream. “Write it down,” she told him, and again he said, “No, no, I can remember: you want a bowl of ice cream with whipped cream.” Then the old lady said she wants a bowl of ice cream with whipped cream and a cherry on top. “Write it down,” she told her husband and again he said, “No, I got it. You want a bowl of ice cream with whipped cream and a cherry on top.” So he goes to get the ice cream and spends an unusually long time in the kitchen, over 30 minutes. He comes out to his wife and hands her a plate of eggs and bacon. The old wife stares at the plate for a moment, then looks at her husband and asks, “Where’s the toast?”

In Trouble Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was really angry. She told him “Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE!” The next morning he got up early and left for work. When his wife woke up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway. Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway,

brought the box back in the house. She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale. Bob has been missing since Friday.

Doctor A lady comes home from her doctor’s appointment grinning from ear to ear. Her husband asks, “Why are you so happy?” The wife says, “The doctor told me that for a forty-five year old woman, I have the breasts of a eighteen year old.” “Oh yeah?” quipped her husband, “What did he say about your forty-five year old ass?” She said, “Your name never came up in the conversation.”

20 Children A woman had 20 children. 10 girls 10 boys, all of their names were leroy. Boys spelt Leroy girls spelt Leroigh. She met a man one day and told him how many children she had and what their names were. “ why did you name all of your children Leroy/Leroigh?” The man asked. “It’s easy to call them all together. For example Leroy/Leroigh time for bet time for supper.” The woman laughed. The man asked “how do you call them if you only need one of the children?” The woman cackled “by their last names of course!”

Funeral Home “Hello? Funeral home?” “Yes?” “I’m a good old boy from the country side . My wife Lena died.” “Oh. I’m sorry to hear that. We’ll send someone right away to pick up the body. Where do you live?” “At the end of Eucalyptus Lane.” “Can you spell that for me?” “How ‘bout if I drag her over to Oak Street and you pick her up there

So I said, “Cool accent, are you two ladies from Ireland?” One of them snarled at me, “It’s Wales, Dumbo!” So I corrected myself, “My apologies, so are you two whales from Ireland?”
