    Texas Official Sues Biden Administration, Alleges 'Discrimination' Against Whites

    The Texas agricultural commissioner is suing the Biden administration, claiming the way some provisions in the American Rescue Plan that provide aid to farmers and ranchers are being interpreted leaves out many white ethnic groups who qualify as “socially disadvantaged,” and thus discriminates against them.
    The suit by Sid Miller, himself a rancher, comes in his capacity as a private citizen, not a public official, according to his complaint.
    The crux of Miller’s class-action suit, filed Monday, is that the Biden administration has narrowly and vaguely interpreted the concept of who is considered “socially disadvantaged” and therefore eligible for financial assistance under certain provisions of the bill. Because of this very narrow definition, the lawsuit said, ethnic groups that have suffered prejudice and discrimination are left behind.

    “Equal rights under law is the cornerstone of American constitutional jurisprudence: the principle that all citizens, regardless of status, wealth, race, color, religion, or creed, have the same rights and are entitled to the same standard of justice,” the lawsuit said.
    “As a nation, we are devoted to the task of satisfying these sacred ideals and providing equal rights to citizens of all races, as the Constitution requires. Profound progress has been made, and extraordinary milestones reached, throughout our history, serving as an inspiration to humanity and the nations of the world.”

    The suit says the Biden administration wants to make some Americans more equal than others
    “Yet, today, the Department of Agriculture lurches America dangerously backward, reversing the clock on American progress, and violating our most sacred and revered principles by actively and invidiously discriminating against American citizens solely based upon their race,” the suit said. “This is illegal, it is unconstitutional, it is wrong, and it must stop.”

    It added that the Department of Agriculture’s interpretation of the phrase “socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers” is limited to “African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, Alaskan natives, Asian-Americans, and Pacific Islanders.” White farmers and ranchers are not included, according to the suit.
    “These racial exclusions are patently unconstitutional, and the Court should permanently enjoin their enforcement,” the lawsuit argued,

    The suit said a simple glance at American history can prove that people have faced prejudice based on their ethnicity.
    “Indeed, throughout American history, many white ethnic groups have been subject to ‘racial or ethnic prejudice because of their identity as members of a group without regard to their individual qualities,’ including Irish, Italians, Germans, Jews, and eastern Europeans,” it said. “Members of these ethnic groups unambiguously qualify as members of a ‘socially disadvantaged group,’ and as “socially disadvantaged farmers or ranchers.”
    The lawsuit trolled Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, who found after a much-ballyhooed claim of Native American ancestry that she had but a drop of Native American blood in her veins.

    Miller’s suit noted that he, as well, might be construed to be eligible.
    “Plaintiff Sid Miller is a farmer and rancher. His ancestry is overwhelmingly white, and primarily Scotch-Irish. As is the case with many Americans, his ancestry is not limited to just one racial or ethnic group. Mr. Miller also has approximately 2% African-American ancestry,” the lawsuit said.

    “An interpretation of the underlying statutes that excludes plaintiffs like Miller because he is not ‘black enough’ would raise grave constitutional concerns,” the lawsuit says.
    The lawsuit is filed through America First Legal — a group founded by Stephen Miller, an adviser to former President Donald Trump.
    “America First Legal opposes discrimination in all forms,” Miller said in a statement, according to The Dallas Morning News.

    Biden Fails in First 5 Minutes, Wrongly Calls Jan. 6 Worst Attack on Democracy Since Civil War

    President Joe Biden insinuated Wednesday that the Jan. 6 Capitol incursion was “the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”
    The president’s remarks came as he delivered his first speech before a joint session of Congress.
    “I stand here tonight, one day shy of the 100th day of my administration,” Biden said.

    “One hundred days since I took the oath of office — lifted my hand off our family Bible — and inherited a nation … in crisis,” he added.
    “The worst pandemic in a century. The worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.

    “The worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”


    It seemed clear Biden was referring to the Capitol incursion, during which some supporters of former President Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol building following a rally to protest the results of the 2020 election.



    Biden’s remarks come weeks after another Democrat, though a far lesser-known one, compared the Capitol incursion to the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.
    In a campaign ad posted to YouTube on Monday, Beaufort, North Carolina, Mayor Rett Newton, who’s running for Senate, made the comparison.
    The ad likened Trump, his family and his supporters to “domestic terrorists.”

    “I remember like it was yesterday, after the towers went down on Sept. 11, we were briefed on the rules of engagement. That included the possibility of shooting down a civilian airliner,” the Democrat said.
    “I was an F-15 squadron commander at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in Goldsboro. For months after that day of foreign terrorism, we flew combat air patrols over Washington to protect our nation’s capital.”
    “Even today, I still can’t believe an attack like that could happen in our country,” he said. “Twenty years later, I had that same sinking feeling, but this time, it was different. An insurrection inflicted by our own people and a president, his family and supporters against our own government. A domestic terrorist attack in the house of our democracy.”

    Newton said that like the 2001 terrorist attacks, Jan. 6 had a “profound effect” on him.
    “As an Air Force officer I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution of United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic,” he said.
    “After I retired from the Air Force I continued my service as mayor of my hometown in Beaufort. Working with Democrats and Republicans, we prepared and recovered from hurricanes, responded to the COVID crisis, completed a massive cleanup of our waterways and invested in infrastructure to secure the future of our community,” he continued.
    “And as a marine scientist, I’m working to address climate change and conserve North Carolina’s pristine coastline.”

    In conclusion, Newton said, “What we need in Washington are leaders who put service over self, leaders who put country over party and leaders who prioritize our planet, our health care, our jobs and our American democracy.”
    Roughly 3,000 people were killed in the 9/11 terror attacks.

    ... clearly President Biden, with all of his years of experience, is the right man for the job!

    horse pucks, he took credit for the TRUMP project sending the helicopter to mars.

    he didn't mention WARP SPEED that set the foundation for the covid fight.

    he didn't mention that Trump has done more for LGBTQ (sans the military when they have a higher suicide rate than VETS)

    it was a total BS speech.

    I highly doubt you know anything about Biden's record. Google Biden Crime Bill. Let's start there. Biden also advised Obama against the Bin Laden raid. Biden has all the wrong experience. Trying doing some research.
