On the 65th day of his presidency, President Biden held his first solo press conference, answering questions on immigration, gun control, Afghanistan, China and North Korea.
Article by Art Moore from WND.
He made news saying his “expectation” is to run for reelection in 2024, when he will turn 82. He plans to announce a major “technological and physical” infrastructure bill on Friday that will “create significant numbers of really good paying jobs.”
And he thinks the filibuster that is impeding his ambitious progressive agenda is a relic of the Jim Crow era. He charged that Republican proposals across the nation to ensure election integrity, such as requiring voters to present an ID card, are “un-American.”
“It’s sick. It’s sick,” he said.
He said that even some Republicans “find this despicable,” calling the requirements “the most pernicious thing.”
“This makes Jim Crow look like Jim Eagle,” Biden said. “This is gigantic what they’re trying to do, and it cannot be sustained.”
He said he will do “everything in his power” to block such legislation but when asked for specifics, he said, “I’m not going to lay out a strategy in front of the whole world.”
A reporter noted President Obama, at the funeral for Rep. John Lewis of Georgia, called the filibuster a relic of the Jim Crow era. Asked if he agreed, Biden said yes.
“Why not abolish it, if it’s a relic of the Jim Crow era?” he was asked, alluding to his previously stated stance of modifying the filibuster rather than eliminating it.

Biden paused.
“Successful electoral politics is the art of the possible,” he said. “Let’s figure out how we can get this done and move in the direction of significantly changing the abuse of even the filibuster rule first,” he said.
In another exchange with a reporter, Biden said that regarding certain issues, if there is a “complete lockdown and chaos, as a consequence of the filibuster, then we’re going to have to go beyond what I’m talking about.”
He then launched into a train of thought that ran into a dead end.
“I’m going to say something outrageous. I have never been particularly poor at calculating how to get things done in the U.S. Senate,” he said. “So, the best way to get something done if you, if you hold near and dear to you that you, uh, um, like to be able to, anyway. … ”

‘My predecessor’
Noting he had not set up a reelection campaign, as his predecessor had by this time in his term, Biden was asked if he will run for reelection in 2024.
“My predecessor needed to,” he said, laughing. “My predecessor, oh god I miss him.
“The answer is yes, I plan to run for reelection. That’s my expectation.”
A reporter followed up, telling Biden he had “just made news by saying you are going to run for reelection.”
“I said that is my expectation,” Biden interjected. ”
“So is that a yes that you are running for reelection?” the reporter followed up.
“Look, I don’t know where you guys come from, man. I’ve never been able to travel. I’m a great respecter of fate. I’ve never been able to plan four and a half, three and a half years ahead for certain.”
He affirmed that if he does run, he “would fully expect” Vice President Kamala Harris to be on the ticket.
“Do you believe you will be running against former President Trump?”
“Oh come on,” he replied. “I don’t even think about, I have no idea.
“I have no idea whether there will be a Republican Party. Do you?”

‘No apologies’
Reporter Yamiche Alcindor of PBS said many immigrants are coming to the country because of the perception that Biden is a “moral and decent man.”
But Biden insisted his “nice guy” approach isn’t the reason, insisting the surge began under Trump, and seasonal patterns along with poor conditions in Central America are driving the surge.
“I’d like to think it’s because I’m a nice guy, but it’s not,” Biden said.
“The truth of the matter is, nothing has changed,” he said.
Another reporter, however, said she had just returned from the border, where she spoke with a 9-year-old boy who had walked from Honduras. The reporter spoke by phone with the mother, who said she sent her son because she believed Biden was not sending children home.
Biden replied that no previous administration sent children away, except for Trump’s.
The president said he makes “no apologies” for ending Trump’s immigration policies, including the Migrant Protection Protocols negotiated with three Central American nations from which asylum seekers come and the “Remain in Mexico” policy.

“First of all, all the policies that were underway were not helping at all, did not slow up the amount of immigration,” Biden said. “Rolling back the policies of separating children from their mothers? Make no apology for that.
“Rolling back the policies of “Remain in Mexico,’ sitting on the edge of the Rio Grande in a muddy circumstance with not enough to eat? I make no apologies for that,” Biden said. “I make no apologies for ending programs that did not exist before Trump became president that have an incredibly negative impact on the law — international law — as well as on human dignity. And so I make no apologies for that.”
Reporters pressed Biden on when he will allow the media to view migrant facilities on the border.
“I will commit when my plan very shortly is underway to let you have access to not just them,” Biden said. “I will commit to transparency.”
Asked when that will be, he made no commitment.
Biden contended the “vast majority” migrants encountered by Border Patrol are being sent back.
“Some families are not going back because Mexico is refusing to take them back. Some, not all.”
However, in February, most families were allowed to remain in the United States. Of the 19,246 encounters with migrant families that month, 7,915 were expelled and 11,331 were allowed to stay.
‘Red line’ on North Korea?
On foreign policy issues in particular, Biden referred to a binder of talking points, often reading directly from them. He affirmed North Korea is his top foreign policy issue. Asked what his “red line” is regarding the communist nation’s threats, he mentioned a U.N. resolution and said the U.S. is consulting with allies.
“If they choose to escalate, we will respond accordingly,” he said.
“But I’m also prepared for some form of diplomacy, but it has to be conditioned upon the end result of denuclearization.”
Regarding China, he recalled a two-hour conversation with President Xi Jinping upon taking office.
“I made it clear that the U.S. is not looking for confrontation, although there will be steep competition,” he said.
Biden said he told Xi that Beijing “must play by the international rules and honour fair competition.”
The Chinese leader, he said, doesn’t have a democratic – with a small ‘d’ – bone in his body, but he’s a smart, smart guy.”
Biden said his policy will be to “reestablish alliances,” noting they are “not anti-Chinese.”
He will speak with 27 heads of state in Europe, and earlier this month he met with Asia-Pacific allies Australia and Japan who have agreed to “hold China accountable.”
That includes on human rights, he said.
“No American president has backed down” on pressing China regarding issues such as its persecution of the Uyghurs minority and Hong Kong anti-government activists, said Biden.
“The moment the president walks away from that, as the last one did, we no longer are America,” he said.
Biden said China intends to become the most powerful and wealthiest nation in the world.
“I don’t criticize their goal,” he said, “but it won’t happen on my watch.”
‘Help is here’
In his opening remarks, Biden announced a new goal of 200 million COVID-19 shots in his first 100 days, which would match the current pace.
“I know it’s ambitious, twice our original goal, but no other country in the world has come close,” he said of the unprecedented vaccine program initiative by President Trump that brought a vaccine to market in just one year instead of the usual five to 10 years.
He said he wants a majority of K-8 schools open in his first 100 days. Already, he said, nearly half are open full-time
A majority of economic forecasters, Biden said, have increased their GDP projections to 6% growth. People seeking unemployment relief, he added, fell by nearly 100,000.
“I can say to the American people, help is here and hope is on the way.”
‘The Purge’ by Big Tech targets conservatives, including us
Just when we thought the Covid-19 lockdowns were ending and our ability to stay afloat was improving, censorship reared its ugly head.
For the last few months, NOQ Report has appealed to our readers for assistance in staying afloat through Covid-19 lockdowns. The downturn in the economy has limited our ability to generate proper ad revenue just as our traffic was skyrocketing. We had our first sustained stretch of three months with over a million visitors in November, December, and January, but February saw a dip.

It wasn’t just the shortened month. We expected that. We also expected the continuation of dropping traffic from “woke” Big Tech companies like Google, Facebook, and Twitter, but it has actually been much worse than anticipated. Our Twitter account was banned. One of our YouTube accounts was banned and another has been suspended. Facebook “fact-checks” everything we post. Spotify canceled us. Why? Because we believe in the truth prevailing, and that means we will continue to discuss “taboo” topics.
The 2020 presidential election was stolen. You can’t say that on Big Tech platforms without risking cancelation, but we’d rather get cancelled for telling the truth rather than staying around to repeat mainstream media’s lies. They have been covering it up since before the election and they’ve convinced the vast majority of conservative news outlets that they will be harmed if they continue to discuss voter fraud. We refuse to back down. The truth is the truth.
The lies associated with Covid-19 are only slightly more prevalent than the suppression of valid scientific information that runs counter to the prescribed narrative. We should be allowed to ask questions about the vaccines, for example, as there is ample evidence for concern. One does not have to be an “anti-vaxxer” in order to want answers about vaccines that are still considered experimental and that have a track record in a short period of time of having side-effects. These questions are not allowed on Big Tech which is just another reason we are getting cancelled.
There are more topics that they refuse to allow. In turn, we refuse to stop discussing them. This is why we desperately need your help. The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We are on track to be short by about $5300 per month in order to maintain operations.

The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. We had 5,657,724 sessions on our website from November, 2020, through February, 2021. Our intention is to elevate that to higher levels this year by focusing on a strategy that relies on free speech rather than being beholden to progressive Big Tech companies.
During that four-month stretch, Twitter and Facebook accounted for about 20% of our traffic. We are actively working on operating as if that traffic is zero, replacing it with platforms that operate more freely such as Gab, Parler, and others. While we were never as dependent on Big Tech as most conservative sites, we’d like to be completely free from them. That doesn’t mean we will block them, but we refuse to be beholden to companies that absolutely despise us simply because of our political ideology.
We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
