Joe Biden Thursday evening signed the stopgap funding bill behind closed doors.
The Senate on Thursday voted 65-35 to pass a stopgap funding bill to avoid a government shutdown.
The stopgap bill funds the government until December 3 and does not raise the debt ceiling.
The bill includes $29 billion in disaster relief for states hit hard by Hurricane Ida and provides $6 billion to resettle Afghan ‘refugees.’
Later Thursday afternoon, the senate-passed bill passed the House in a 254-175 vote.
Joe Biden signed the bill Thursday evening just hours before government funding was set to expire at 11:59:59 pm et.
Biden loves to sign bills in front of reporters with the cameras rolling but he opted to privately sign the stopgap funding bill tonight likely because he wanted to avoid the press pool.
Joe Biden doesn’t want to answer questions about his failure to get his $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill through Congress.
Tonight I signed the continuing resolution to fund our government through December. It funds critical needs like our COVID-19 response, resettling our Afghan allies, and disaster assistance — and gives us more time to pass longer-term funding and deliver for the American people. pic.twitter.com/sUCtKugVto
Gideon Rozner, the Director of Policy at the Institute of Public Affairs in Melbourne, joined Tucker Carlson on Thursday night to discuss the
Gozner says the police urged the government of Victoria to issue a no-fly zone over Melbourne so people could not see how large the anti-government protests are.
Gideon Rozner: The fact is the coronavirus has completely changed the relationship between government and citizenship in this country. It has overwhelmed every check and balance in our system… This is a radically new era we’ve seen in Australia… The police in my home state of Victoria asked the Federal Civil Aviation Authority to declare a no-fly zone over Melbourne so commercial media outlets couldn’t film the protests in case people saw how big they were and went down and joined in. That is an extraordinary step for the government to take. The police censoring the broadcast media? And it has been in the main accepted.

Former Advisor to President Trump, Sebastian Gorka, and MAGA U.S. Senate Candidate Jackson Lahmeyer are currently holding a rally to remove RINO politicians from office.
Tonight’s Target, RINO Senator James Lankford will face Jackson Lahmeyer in the 2022 primary election.
Lahmeyer is a conservative pastor who is endorsed by General Michael Flynn and Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers.
Jackson Lahmeyer is not afraid of the radical left or authoritative woke culture and neither is his church, which remained open for mass during the COVID-19 lockdowns.
Tonight’s rally will feature amazing guest speakers, including Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers who is expected to use the Arizona audit results and her decertification petition to rally the crowd.
Jackson Lahmeyer supports audit efforts in every state, including Oklahoma where Trump was declared the winner. He wants to make sure every single vote was recorded.
A senior al Qaeda leader has been killed in a drone strike in Syria, U.S. defense officials confirmed to Fox News Thursday.
The Civil Defense team, known as White Helmets, said the unidentified body was lifted from the car along the Idlib-Binnish road east of Idlib province.
U.S. Central Command said American forces had conducted a “kinetic counterterrorism strike” near Idlib province targeting a senior leader of the militant group al Qaeda.
“Initial indications are that we struck the individual we were aiming for, and there are no indications of civilian casualties as a result of the strike,” said Navy Lt. Josie Lynne Lenny in a statement.
Last month the Pentagon claimed it killed high-level ISIS planners in a single drone strike in the Kandahar province in Afghanistan.
The drone strike was in response to a suicide bomber who killed 13 US service members and wounded 15 more.
It turned out the Pentagon lied about killing high-level ISIS facilitators.
Biden’s drone strike in Afghanistan killed 10 innocent civilians including SEVEN children.

If CNN starts sounding like The Economic Collapse Blog, what does that mean? Unfortunately, the truth about what is in our immediate future is becoming apparent to everyone. Global supply chains are in a state of complete and utter chaos, and this is driving up prices and causing widespread shortages all over the country. Over the past couple of weeks, I have written five articles with either “shortage” or “shortages” in the title, and some have accused me of being a little alarmist. If that is the case, then CNN is being alarmist too, because one of their top stories today openly warned of a “global transport system collapse”…
In an open letter Wednesday to heads of state attending the United Nations General Assembly, the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) and other industry groups warned of a “global transport system collapse” if governments do not restore freedom of movement to transport workers and give them priority to receive vaccines recognized by the World Health Organization.
For decades, we have all been able to take our extremely complex supply chains for granted. Things have always been where they need to be when they needed to be there, and many of us just assumed that it would always be that way.
“Global supply chains are beginning to buckle as two years’ worth of strain on transport workers take their toll,” the groups wrote. The letter has also been signed by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the International Road Transport Union (IRU) and the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF). Together they represent 65 million transport workers globally.
“All transport sectors are also seeing a shortage of workers, and expect more to leave as a result of the poor treatment millions have faced during the pandemic, putting the supply chain under greater threat,” it added.
Things are particularly bad at our ports. Right now, there is a backlog of approximately 500,000 shipping containers waiting on ships off the west coast waiting to be unloaded…
As an estimated 500,000 containers are sitting on cargo ships off the Southern California coast, many are wondering how to handle the backlog.
Needless to say, we have never seen anything like this before.
But what most Americans don’t realize is that the backlog off the coast of China is even worse…
There are over 60 container ships full of import cargo stuck offshore of Los Angeles and Long Beach, but there are more than double that — 154 as of Friday — waiting to load export cargo off Shanghai and Ningbo in China, according to eeSea, a company that analyzes carrier schedules.
The number of container ships anchored off Shanghai and Ningbo has surged over recent weeks. There are now 242 container ships waiting for berths countrywide. Whether it’s due to heavy export volumes, Typhoon Chanthu or COVID, rising congestion in China is yet another wild card for the trans-Pacific trade.
If you are waiting for something to come in from overseas, you may be waiting for a very long time.
Because of all the chaos, we are being warned that this could be a holiday season like no other…
Retailers are sounding the alarm on the upcoming holiday shopping season due to serious supply chain issues that are slowing shipments of manufactured goods around the world.
Chaos theory in it’s simplest form says if a butterfly flaps its wings in China, it means rain in Central Park. Well, that applies not just to weather, but supply chains as well, and in the Bay Area, it will impact everything from computer parts for your car to the gifts and toys on your holiday shopping list.
If there is something that you really want to get your hands on, you might want to order it now, because it may not be available later.
In addition to shortages, supply chain issues are also pushing prices significantly higher.
For example, we just learned that the price of bacon has risen almost 28 percent over the past year…
The average price for that slab of bacon to accompany the Sunday morning spread has jumped nearly 28% during the past 12 months, inflation-adjusted Consumer Price Index data show.
The supply chain issues and inflationary pressures that have become all-too common in these pandemic times certainly have played theirs roles in the pork price hikes, alongside a slew of industry-specific influence.
A lot of people may be forced to stop eating bacon as a result of soaring prices, and from a health perspective that is not a bad thing.
And the price of bacon is going to continue to go higher, because U.S. hog herds are shrinking at a brisk pace…
US hog herds experienced the most significant monthly drop in two decades, according to new data from the USDA. The reason behind the drop is because farmers decreased hog-herd development over the last year due to labor disruptions at slaughterhouses plus high animal feed.
USDA data showed the US hog herd was 3.9% lower in August than a year ago. It was the largest monthly drop since 1999 after analysts only expected a decline of about 1.7%, according to Bloomberg.
Many of you already don’t eat bacon, and so what I just shared may not affect you, but what about a shortage of potatoes?
Incredibly, it is being reported that some fast food outlets are now running out of French Fries. The following comes from Matt Stoller…
My favorite story is quintessentially American, and un-American, at the same time. It’s from a Florida realtor who was in a hurry and stopped at a Burger King for lunch. He saw a sign, “Sorry. No French Fries with any order. We have no potatoes.” At first he thought he was imagining things. What kind of fast food place runs out of fries? Is this, he wondered, a sign of things to come?
It’s a good question. Fast food exists in a land of plenty, of surplus, of mass produced food with a reliable infrastructure of trucks, trains, farms, and distributors. Shortages of everyday goods conflicts not only with most of our lived experiences, but also with our very conception of who we are. There’s a name for this framework, and it’s called affluence.
I really like how Stoller made that last point.
So many of us think that since we are the most prosperous nation on the entire planet that long-term shortages could never happen to us.
From the very top to the very bottom, our entire economic system is being shaken.
If you are expecting our national leaders to come in with some sort of a quick fix to this crisis, you are going to be waiting a really, really long time.
The blind are leading the blind, and the months ahead are going to be very challenging.

Alejandro Mayorkas, Department of Homeland Security Secretary
On Thursday, the open-borders Biden regime issued new guidelines to immigration officers that say they should not deport any illegal alien solely because they are here illegally.
The guidelines are set to go into effect in November and directly violate US immigration laws that are currently on the books.
Instead, federal resources will now be used to apprehend and deport illegals only if pose a threat to national security or the public safety of US citizens.
That is unless they live in a leftist sanctuary city, that shields violent criminal illegals from federal agencies when they attempt to transfer custody, countless have been released back onto the streets to re-offend in states like California.
We all saw how hard it was to deport even the most violent criminals when we had Trump in office – who actually made border security a priority – how bad will things get now that this clueless lunatic Biden is in office and running the left’s imported voters scheme?
It’s no secret, these psychopaths want to end American sovereignty as we know it.
DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas made the announcement for the new guidelines. In his statement, he explicitly stated that this administration’s goal is to secure citizenship status for any illegal alien who has made it here and isn’t a direct threat to national security.
“As we strive to provide them with a path to status, we will not work in conflict by spending resources seeking to remove those who do not pose a threat and, in fact, make our Nation stronger.”
In other words, the overwhelming percentage of the 1.3 million-plus illegals who have already been released, in addition to countless more who will come and who have crossed undetected, will be safe from deportation as Biden’s team of bureaucrats works on getting them their citizenship.
Mayorkas claims that illegals who are apprehended at the border who are trying to unlawfully enter the US would be considered a threat to border security and could potentially be deported under the new guidelines – but seeing how many have actually been deported since Biden has taken over doesn’t give much indication that many, if any at all will be sent back to Mexico.
These new guidelines instruct agents to expressly disobey US immigration laws that are currently on the books. This should not be allowed to stand and needs to be challenged by our elected representatives – it’s unacceptable.
