The Biden campaign released a not-so-festive list of talking points Thursday aimed at helping his supporters navigate “nonsense” political talk around the Thanksgiving table, the same day the 81-year-old president pleaded with Americans to “stop the rancor” over political differences. 

The list, which the Biden campaign called, “Your handy guide for responding to crazy MAGA nonsense this Thanksgiving,” was shared on X and included questionable claims about inflation, job creation and former President Donald Trump’s position on a federal abortion ban.

“The economy was better during Trump!” reads the first item on the list, alluding to a possible statement a supporter of the 2024 Republican presidential front-runner might bring up at the dinner table. 

To counter that claim, the Biden campaign suggests supporters respond by saying, “Wrong. Inflation is the lowest it’s been in two years, the economy is growing, and unemployment has been under 4% for the longest stretch on record. Just look at your Thanksgiving costs compared to last year – gas prices: cheaper. Turkey: cheaper. Eggs: cheaper. Joe Biden has created nearly 14 million jobs and the economy is on the rise.”

The list included questionable claims about the president’s record on the economy and Trump’s positions on abortion bans.

Under Biden, inflation reached a four-decade high of 9.1% in June 2022.

The latest consumer price index figures show that price increases cooled to 3.2% in October, but still remain higher than any month during the Trump administration. 

Likewise, gas prices spiked to a record-high national average of $5.01 per gallon in June 2022 and have since dropped to about $3.27 per gallon as of Thursday, according to AAA, but still remain 88 cents higher than when Biden took office in January 2021. 

On food prices, an American Farm Bureau Federation report found the “classic Thanksgiving feast for 10” in 2023 to be priced at $61.17, “a 4.5% decline from historically high prices last year,” with a decrease in turkey prices accounting for most of that price reduction.

But AFBF data also show that Thanksgiving prices have shot up 30% since 2020, with the classic meal priced at $46.90 during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Republican National Committee also pointed out it was “the second-most expensive Thanksgiving in the survey’s 38-year history.”

The Biden campaign’s job creation claim also appears to credit the incumbent for jobs recovered after the unprecedented layoffs that took place during the economic shutdown at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

A House Budget Committee report released in June notes that about 72% of all job gains since 2021 were jobs being recovered from the pandemic, not new job creation. 

“In fact, when looking at today’s economy compared to pre-pandemic levels, employment is up only by 3.7 million. On the other hand, prior to the pandemic, job creation under President Trump was 6.7 million — 3 million more jobs than the current President,” the report states. 

Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics also indicate that Americans are taking home less money for their work due to inflation. 

Inflation-adjusted average hourly earnings were $11.41 per hour  in January 2021 when Biden took office and fell more than 3% to the current rate of $11.05 this October, according to the BLS.

On abortion, Biden’s bullet points claim that “Trump endorsed a federal ban and said there should be punishment for women who have an abortion.” 

The former president actually raised the eyebrows of conservatives in September when he blasted his GOP primary opponent, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, for signing a six-week ban on the procedure into state law.

Trump called the move a “terrible mistake” and refused to say whether he would support a federal ban on abortion during an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

He noted that “from a legal standpoint, I think it’s probably better” that abortion restrictions be handled at the state level.

Joe Biden Is A National Insult© Provided by State Of The Union

Former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman criticized the Biden administration for not exerting enough pressure on Iran, especially as Iran assumes the role of chair of the U.N. Human Rights Council Social Forum.

Friedman highlighted Iran’s human rights abuses, including the recent deaths of two women who were detained for not properly covering their faces.

He also mentioned Iran’s execution of dissenters and its foreign minister’s threatening behavior towards the U.S. and Israel. (Trending: CNN Poll Is Bad News For Biden)

Friedman argued that the U.S. is compromising its national dignity by participating in the Human Rights Council under Iran’s leadership.

Additionally, the text mentions Iran’s senior role at the U.N. Human Rights Council and its recent execution of two men for blasphemy.

It also notes the increase in attacks on U.S. troops in the Middle East and the U.S. airstrikes on Iranian proxies in response.

“Iran is delivering to the United States right now a massive national insult. I mean, we are just without dignity right now when it comes to Iran. I mean, they attacked us 28 times since the war began. Our response was to, you know, send a couple of missiles over empty warehouses coupled with an apology,” Friedman said.

“Their human rights record is atrocious. I mean, these two beautiful young women, because they dared not cover their faces properly, were taken into custody. Mahsa Amini died two days later from her wounds. Armita Garawand, who was in a coma for a month, she unfortunately just succumbed to her wounds. They shoot protesters in the streets. They take dissenters and they execute them publicly.”

“The foreign minister of Iran, we give him safe passage into our country. We protect him. He gets up in front of the United Nations, and he lectures the United States and Israel. He threatens us. And now they’re the head of the Human Rights Council? I mean, this is outrageous.”

“You know, during the Trump administration, I remember the conversation with the president and with Ambassador Haley. We left the Human Rights Council because we could not dignify that entity by being a member of it.”

“Now, the Biden administration chose to come right back in, and they’re going to be sitting there in the Human Rights Council, which is going to be chaired by the Islamic Republic of Iran, one of the worst offenders in the world of human rights.”

“We are being deprived of whatever national dignity we have left by participating in this charade.”

Democrats Scramble To Shield Biden From Embarrassment© Provided by America Insider

Supporters of President Biden in New Hampshire have launched a grassroots write-in effort on his behalf for the state’s first-in-the-nation presidential primary.

The group aims to avoid Biden “suffering an electoral embarrassment.”

This comes after Biden declined to place his name on the primary ballot, as it is out of compliance with the Democratic National Committee’s revised nominating calendar.

The effort aims to educate voters on their ability to write in Biden’s name and has received support from prominent New Hampshire Democrats.

“The fate of our democracy itself hangs in the balance in the 2024 election,” the group’s website warns.

And an email from the group’s leaders highlighted that “more than 100 grassroots leaders and volunteers from across New Hampshire are launching ‘Write-In Biden,’ a statewide effort to encourage New Hampshire voters to commit to writing in Joe Biden during the 2024 NH Presidential Primary this winter.”

The campaign emphasizes that it is independent of Biden’s re-election campaign and the state Democratic Party.

The move by Biden and the DNC to revamp the nominating calendar has raised concerns among Granite Staters and could pose a challenge for the president in 2024.

“None. Absolutely none,” one of the group’s leaders – veteran Democratic strategist Jim Demers – told Fox News. “We have not heard anything from them…. It truly is a citizens grassroots effort.”

“Dean Phillips’ entry into the race has no bearing on this. The write-in effort started organizing weeks ago, before he entered the race,” he emphasized.

New Evidence To Torpedo Biden© Provided by America Insider

New evidence shows the White House knew Joe Biden had illegally stored classified documents before sending the FBI to former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence.

“Growing evidence that accounts offered by the White House over the discovery of the documents are false,” stated legal analyst Jonathan Turley.

“The new evidence could prove transformative, not only for the criminal but the impeachment investigation of the president,” he added.

“This week, the House Oversight Committee released a new timeline on the discovery of classified documents in various locations associated with Biden.”

“From the outset, many of us flagged problems with the account that had been given by Biden, who insisted that he had no knowledge or involvement in the removal or use of the documents.”

It is now alleged that the White House “omitted months of communications, planning, and coordinating among multiple White House officials, [Kathy] Chung, Penn Biden Center employees, and President Biden’s personal attorneys to retrieve the boxes containing classified materials.”

“The timeline also omitted multiple visits from at least five White House employees, including Dana Remus, Anthony Bernal, Ashley Williams, Annie Tomasini, and an unknown staffer.”

If proven, the timeline provided by Biden’s attorneys is utterly false, which will significantly impact the case.

Top Biden Official Under Criminal Investigation© Provided by America Insider

The hits keep coming for the Biden administration. Robert Malley, President Joe Biden’s now-suspended special envoy to Iran, has been linked to an “Iranian spy ring.”

The purpose of this group is to influence U.S. policy in favor of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Iranian-backed terrorists killed over 1,000 innocent civilians in Israel, including 22 Americans. (Trending: Why Is Biden Giving Amnesty to 700,000 Migrants?)

Addressing Hamas terrorists who kill innocent people, Malley once said, “We may disagree with them, but they have their own rationality.”

Malley is now under criminal investigation by the FBI over his handling of classified material with Iran.

He is accused of advancing several operatives in the spy ring.

Malley allegedly helped an Iranian asset named Ariane Tabatabai infiltrate her way into “some of the most sensitive positions in the U.S. government.”

Tabatabai was even positioned at the State Department and Pentagon.

The operation began in 2014 when Iran created the Iran Experts Initiative (IEI).

This was a propaganda and influence operation meant to obtain a favorable nuclear deal with then-president Barack Obama. (Trending: Joe Biden’s 2024 Chances Are Officially Dead)

The group reported to an official from the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), which is a terrorist organization, and Iran’s then-Foreign Minister Javad Zarif was also reportedly involved.

Responded to the investigation, retired CIA analyst Peter Theroux said, “I know what a spy network looks like.”

“This is how recruited assets speak to their handling officers,” he said.

“There’s lots of the mood music around that correspondence saying, let me know what you need me to collect. It seems clear who’s the subordinate here — what you’d call responsive to tasking.”

Trump Was Right Once Again© Provided by America Insider

Former President Donald Trump correctly predicted that Joe Biden’s $6 billion hostage deal with Iran would have devastating consequences.

As a state sponsor of radical Islamic terrorism, Iran openly arms and finances terror groups in the region to carry out evil acts on innocent civilians.

Trump said, “Biden’s ransom payment will be immediately used to stoke violence, bloodshed, and mayhem throughout the Middle East, putting Israel, the United States, and the entire world in very grave peril.” (Trending: 7,000 Migrants Cross Into Texas Town in 72 Hours)

During the White House press, National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan did not give any details on the $6 billion.

The Biden administration says 6 billion was “unfrozen” in Iranian assets and must be used for “humanitarian purposes,” although there is no reliable method of auditing the funds.

Roughly one month after Biden agreed to hand cash to Iran, a massive terror attack was carried out by Iran-back Palestinian Hamas terrorists on Israel.

The terrorist attack killed over 800 innocent civilians, including 14 Americans. (Trending: Biden Admin Insults Concerned Parents at School Board Meetings)

Over 150 others were taken as hostages, including potentially 20 Americans who remain missing.

Anti-Israel Islamic terrorists arrived in vans and shot at least 260 people attending a music festival in Israel. Israel was hit in several locations by more than 2,000 rockets.

Undeniable Proof Joe Biden Is A Liar© Provided by America Insider

In 2020, Joe Biden promised “not another foot” of Donald Trump’s wall will be built along the southern border.

This turned out to be a lie as the Federal Register announced building the border wall has resumed.

The Biden administration says it aims “to ensure the expeditious construction of barriers and roads in the vicinity of the international land border in Starr County, Texas.” (Poll: Was Trump better than Biden? VOTE)

There is “an acute and immediate need to construct physical barriers and roads in the vicinity of the border of the United States in order to prevent unlawful entries into the United States,” Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in a statement.

Following the announcement, Donald Trump took to Truth Social to demand an apology from the President.

“So interesting to watch Crooked Joe Biden break every environmental law in the book to prove that I was right when I built 560 miles (they incorrectly state 450 in story!) of brand new, beautiful border wall,” Trump said.

“As I have stated often, over thousands of years, there are only two things that have consistently worked, wheels, and walls!”

“Will Joe Biden apologize to me and America for taking so long to get moving, and allowing our country to be flooded with 15 million illegals immigrants, from places unknown. I will await his apology!” he posted.

Democrats Set Another All-Time Record© Provided by America Insider

The Democrat-led city of San Francisco has witnessed a distressing surge in overdose deaths, surpassing all previous monthly records since tracking began in 2020.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported that the number of overdose fatalities climbed from 74 to 84, equalling the highest count recorded.

This alarming trend puts San Francisco on course to reach 845 overdose deaths this year, exceeding the 2020 figure of 725. (Trending: Democrat Hoax Unmasked In Brilliant Takedown)

These statistics underscore the ongoing challenges that San Francisco officials face in combatting the devastating impact of fentanyl on their streets.

Health Director Dr. Grant Colfax termed this situation “distressing,” as it indicates a rate of nearly three fentanyl-related deaths daily. (Trending: Illegal Alien Arrested For Disturbing Crime After Biden Release)

Despite concerted efforts by city and state authorities to address the fentanyl crisis, including Mayor London Breed declaring it a “state of emergency” in the Tenderloin district last year and the deployment of the California Highway Patrol and California National Guard by Governor Gavin Newsom, the problem persists.

The continuous influx of drugs across the southern U.S.-Mexico border contributes to the city’s struggles in tackling this crisis. (Trending: AOC Dealt A Heavy Dose of Reality)

Biden Family Bank Wires Just Got Much Worse© Provided by America Insider

Subpoenaed bank records show the Biden family received at least 20 million in unexplained wires from foreign Nationals.

However, this isn’t the whole story. Republicans predict the Bidens actually received more than $50 million.

Americans have yet to see the personal bank records of Jim Biden, Joe Biden’s brother, who secretly negotiated a $140 million settlement deal in 2012 between a U.S. company and the Saudi Arabian government. (Trending: Democrat Hoax Unmasked In Brilliant Takedown)

The payments went to nine family members, including even two of Joe Biden’s grandchildren.

The White House has insisted that Joe Biden never received payments, but it is still bribery to carry out political favors in exchange for payments to family.

Moreover, Hunter’s own text messages and emails confirm that Joe received half of Hunter’s multi-million dollar salary. Hunter also admitted to paying all of Joe’s bills for roughly a decade.

Republican Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina said, “Based on the evidence I’ve seen so far, I think the number is going to be north of $50 million that we’re talking about here.”

“This will go down as one of the most politically corrupt presidents and families in U.S. history,” Mace added.

“And we’ve got to show and prove it to the American people. We’ve got to show them everything that we have.”

When asked if $50 million is realistic, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) said, “I do think it’s realistic.” (Trending: Unearthed Clip Shows Joe and Hunter Discussing Business)

“We haven’t gotten to Jim Biden,” Comer said.

“The subpoena for Jim Biden’s personal bank records will be the first crack at Jim Biden. Remember, Jim Biden didn’t leave a laptop lying around, so it’s not been as easy to track his transactions.”

“We believe that this was a very organized crime ring because of the way the money was disbursed through LLCs and the shell companies and the way the money was disbursed through the various Biden members,” Comer told Fox News host Sean Hannity.

“Joe Biden was very involved in this,” Comer added. “He knew what the family was doing.” (Trending: Biden Family Is Officially In Panic Mode)

Chilling Proof Joe Biden Interfered in Hunter Probe© Provided by America Insider

A third IRS official confirmed that their investigation faced influence and roadblocks stemming from Joe Biden’s administration.

The president is accused of obstructing justice in Hunter’s case as part of an impeachment inquiry launched against him for accepting bribes from foreign nationals.

Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland has denied accusations that he prevented Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss from filing charges against Hunter. (Trending: Proof That Joe Biden Took Bribes)

Bank records show Hunter received millions in unexplained wire transfers from foreign nationals and failed to pay taxes. Due to delays in the case, some tax years are passed the statute of limitations for charges to be filed.

IRS Director of Field Operations Michael Batdorf told Congress that he felt “frustrated” by the refusal of the Justice Department to approve tax charges.

Multiple high-ranking IRS agents viewed the charges as well-supported by evidence. (Trending: 22 Chilling Facts About Biden’s Impeachment)

Garland has falsely claimed publicly that Weiss was given full control and authority to file charges. In reality, Weiss told IRS agents that his hands were being tied in the case.

“DOJ Tax would have to authorize charges prior to David Weiss recommending an indictment or prosecution,” Batdorf said during his interview.

“So, I mean, my understanding is that, I mean, he can’t make that decision without DOJ Tax authorization,” Batdorf said. (Trending: Kari Lake Blasts ‘Woke’ NFL)

During a congressional hearing, Garland said, “Most of the time, but not when the attorney general has granted authority to a U.S. attorney to do what he thinks is best.”

Batdorf said, “I was frustrated. [Weiss] was probably a little frustrated … because he now had to make some decisions on what he was going to do.”

Joe Biden’s defenders have been on a wild ride this past year.

It began with them arguing that the president knew absolutely nothing about his family’s influence-peddling business to arguing that it’s no big deal that ChiCom wire payoffs happen to have Biden’s home address listed on them.

The quality of the excuses, unsurprisingly, has been deteriorating rapidly.

They largely entail repeating the words “no” and “evidence” in a perpetual loop.

But this week, when James Comer released financial records of Hunter Biden receiving two wire transfers totaling $260,000 in 2019 from Beijing with the president’s Delaware home listed as the beneficiary address, the White House jumped into action.

“Imagine them arguing that, if someone stayed at their parents’ house during the pandemic, listed it as their permanent address for work, and got a paycheck, the parents somehow also worked for the employer,” wrote White House spokesman Ian Sams.

n to.”Speaking of bananas, the first confirmed case of COVID-19 in the United States wasn’t reported until January 2020, and shutdowns were still a year away when Hunter Biden used his dad’s house as a beneficiary address on a wire payment.

According to Hunter’s memoir, he was living in Los Angeles with his new wife at the time.

Of course, even if the pandemic had been raging by summer 2019, Hunter Biden wasn’t a college student visiting home; he was a 49-year-old who had the wherewithal to craft numerous international million-dollar deals — not to mention allegedly evade taxes, buy firearms illegally and score crack and prostitutes.

Why would Hunter need to stay at Daddy’s house?

Why do they keep talking about this grown man as if he’s a toddler?

For God’s sake, this is an accomplished artist whose work goes for upwards of a million dollars.

And it wasn’t a “paycheck,” but a wire transfer from a ChiCom investment firm that his father repeatedly lied about to the American people.

In an October 2019 presidential debate, Joe Biden incredulously claimed that Hunter never benefited from Chinese interests — “My son has not made money in terms of this thing about, what are you talking about, China.”

It was weird, even then, that Biden could make such an assertion with confidence, considering that not long before he had claimed to “never” have spoken to Hunter about his “overseas business dealings.”

Perhaps one day the president will be asked by the political media why he made this claim, and whether he knew his address was being used on Biden Inc. paperwork at the time.

And while they’re at it, they could ask him whether he was at his Wilmington house in 2017 when his son threatened his Chinese partner, Henry Zhao, with the words, “I am sitting here with my father.”

Let’s also remember that not only did Joe Biden fly his son to Beijing aboard Air Force Two during an official visit in 2013 to meet with potential investors, but the vice president met Jonathan Li, whose name is on the 2019 wire transfer, for coffee.

The two would talk again on the phone — probably just some “casual conversations” or “niceties about the weather.”

Joe was even kind enough to write college recommendation letters for Li’s son and daughter.

It’s a really weird coincidence that the same guy happens to have Joe Biden’s address on a wire transfer.

A cynic might start to piece together these stories and come to the conclusion that there’s actually plenty of evidence the president had created the “illusion” of access to the White House on his son’s behalf — at the very least, enriching his entire family.

Laptop deniers are having a tough time trying to explain away the <snip>ing evidence pouring out of congressional committees investigating Biden corruption and the DOJ’s coverup. 

New documents from IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley released by the House Ways and Means Committee Wednesday spell more trouble for the Bidens, and maybe for Hunter Biden’s “sugar brother” Kevin Morris, who paid the First Son’s $2.8 million tax bill and funded his lifestyle in Malibu. 

Here are the top five revelations contained in the committee’s 1,600-word report and 31 new exhibits tabled by IRS criminal investigators Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, who allege DOJ obstruction of their five-year investigation of Hunter in Delaware:

1. Uncle Jim Biden told the FBI and IRS in an interview last September that he and his nephew Hunter tried to help Chinese firm CEFC buy a US liquid natural gas facility in Louisiana — and that they did so in the knowledge that the company was directly linked to Chinese President Xi Jinping. Hunter told his uncle that CEFC chairman Ye Jianming “was a protégé of President Xi,” the FBI report says. But investigators were instructed not to ask Jim Biden if his brother, then-former Vice President Joe Biden, was involved in the ultimately unsuccessful CEFC deal or to follow “normal investigative leads,” says the committee.
2. IRS public affairs officer Justin Cole emailed the chief and deputy chief of IRS criminal investigations a report of conversations between a CNN producer and Hunter Biden, in which Hunter said that he was “not willing to accept” a plea deal and that he “expected all of this ‘stuff’ would go away when his dad becomes president.”
3. The FBI was investigating Morris for campaign finance violations. “These violations pertain to a wealthy Hollywood lawyer, Kevin Morris, who was enlisted to help the family, and who paid millions of dollars to help Hunter around the time that Joe Biden becomes president,” says the committee. But Leslie Wolf, Delaware Assistant U.S. Attorney, told investigators that she was not “personally interested” in the Morris investigation and that “she did not want any of the agents to look into the allegation.”
4. Wolf refused multiple requests by Pittsburgh US Attorney Scott Brady to brief Delaware investigators about an FBI FD-1023 report alleging that Joe Biden was paid a $5 million bribe by an executive of Ukrainian energy firm Burisma, as was his son Hunter. The allegation came from a trusted FBI confidential human source during a June 2020 interview. But Wolf “had already concluded no information from that office could be credible, stating her belief that it all came from Rudy Giuliani,” Shapley said, even though the FBI report had nothing to do with Giuliani. On October 22, 2020, the Justice Department ordered the Delaware US Attorney’s office to take the Pittsburg briefing, but Shapley said his investigators never saw the FD-1023, nor were told what it contained, despite the fact it was directly relevant to their case.
5. Wolf instructed investigators seeking a search warrant of a Biden property to “erase” any mention of “Political Figure 1” — who was Joe Biden.

These <snip>ing new details come on top of the House Oversight committee revelation Tuesday of two more bank wires to Hunter Biden from Chinese nationals, totaling $260,000.

The wires listed Joe Biden’s address at his palatial house in Wilmington, Delaware, as the beneficiary address.

They are dated July and August 2019, when Joe was running for president.

“In 2020, Joe Biden told Americans that his family never received money from China,” said James Comer.
