Jimmy Carter Was Never a Good Man

 Outgoing President Joe Biden encouraged incoming President Donald Trump to take lessons in "decency" from former President Jimmy Carter. While Biden initially aimed to be compared to Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy, he now seems content to be seen as a second version of Carter. Despite the media's insistence that Biden is a good man and that Carter was, too, both men share a record of unpopularity and controversies related to their families, but not a reputation for decency.

Jimmy Carter campaigned on a promise of honesty and competence, but he was involved in corruption, particularly concerning his brother, Billy Carter. Billy, a drunk who mismanaged the family business, engaged in foreign influence activities and was linked to a bank scandal involving improper loans. The media often dismissed the connections between these scandals and Jimmy Carter, even as he publicly supported his brother's actions.

Following his presidency, Jimmy Carter maintained ties with various dictators, meeting with numerous oppressive leaders. He expressed admiration for them and seemed to ignore their violent actions. Notably, Carter met with Hamas, claiming they wanted peace with Israel, despite violent actions occurring shortly thereafter.

Carter's legacy includes promoting corrupt governments while pretending to be a humanitarian leader. His organization, the Carter Center, monitored foreign elections but also supported leftist takeovers, leading to widespread issues in countries like Venezuela. His actions extended far beyond normal lobbying practices, including urging foreign leaders to oppose the U. S. and announcing positions on behalf of America.

Carter's humanitarian image was marred by scandals, including handling sexual harassment cases within Habitat for Humanity. He also pardoned individuals for serious crimes, raising questions about his judgment and values. Despite these serious critiques, Carter crafted an image of moral superiority, claiming his actions stemmed from trust and forgiveness.

Biden, in his presidency, has also faced criticism for leniency towards criminals, drawing parallels to Carter's past. Both presidents have navigated complex legacies filled with controversy while presenting themselves as virtuous figures. The comparison highlights a troubling pattern of leaders perceived as morally ambiguous despite presenting a facade of decency. Ultimately, the article presents a harsh view of both men, suggesting their legacies are not rooted in the good they claimed to pursue but rather in compromises that undermined their stated values.

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...

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...
