Biden Bypasses Senate Confirmation in Labor’s Julie Su

 Without a confirmation vote by the U.S. Senate, acting Labor Secretary Julie Su can remain in her post atop the Labor Department, according to a Sept. 21 ruling by the Government Accountability Office.

Su served as California labor commissioner and supported Assembly Bill 5, a frontal assault on workers' independence.

Su headed California's Labor and Workforce Development Agency, which oversees the Employment Development Department responsible for unemployment claims.

On Su's watch, the EDD sent more than $31 billion in fraudulent unemployment claims to California, out of state, and out of country.

In 2020 alone, Su confirmed, as reported by the California Globe, "Fraudsters stole at least $11.4 billion in unemployment benefits from California." As it happens, fraud was not a new problem at the EDD. California's state auditor reported that the "EDD had no comprehensive plan for how it would respond if California experienced a recession and UI claims increased accordingly." Su had failed "To modernize the EDD's woefully outdated EDD technology," the Washington Examiner reports, and, in the early days of the pandemic, suspended eligibility requirements for EDD claims.

According to USA Today, "The state approved more than $140 million for at least 20,000 prisoners." Convicts who made fraudulent claims included convicted murderers Scott Peterson and Cary Stayner.

Scammers filed hundreds of fake claims, "Including one in the name of California Sen. Dianne Feinstein," according to KRON4.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
