Globalists Unite: Clinton, Bush, Obama Team Up with Biden to Import Afghans
President Joe Biden is looking to team up with former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama, as well as multinational corporations, to bring Afghans to the United States for permanent resettlement.
This week, former officials with the Clinton, Bush, and Obama administrations launched the organization Welcome.us which will work with multinational corporations like Airbnb, Walmart, Starbucks, Instacart, Facebook, Microsoft, and Chobani to provide financial support to Afghans arriving in the U.S. as part of Biden’s massive resettlement operation.
Biden has said he hopes to resettle about 95,000 Afghans across the U.S. over the next 12 months. In a 21-day period from August to September, Biden brought more than 48,000 Afghans to the U.S. for resettlement — a population more than four times that of Jackson, Wyoming.
Instacart is donating 25,000 “culturally appropriate grocery meals” to Afghans arriving in the U.S. while Walmart donates $5000,000 in grant money to Welcome.us. Facebook is giving Welcome.us $150,000 in ad credits.
Starbucks has pledged $350,000 in grants to “nonprofit organizations supporting Afghan Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) applicants and refugee resettlement” while Microsoft executives have said they will give $1 million in “cash, technology, and services to support the evacuation and resettlement of refugees.”
“America is at a critical moment in our history — it is our duty to recognize our common humanity and welcome refugees from Afghanistan with open arms,” Chobani CEO Hamdi Ulukaya said in a statement.
Clinton, Bush, and Obama, as well as former First Ladies Hillary Clinton, Laura Bush, and Michelle Obama, are serving as honorary co-chairs to Welcome.us. The organization is being backed by Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors which has ties to billionaire George Soros’s Open Society Foundation.
The Bushes said in a statement:
Thousands of Afghans stood with us on the front lines to push for a safer world, and now they need our help. We are proud to support Welcome.US and the work to help Afghan families get settled and build new lives. We stand ready to show our new Afghan neighbors and the rest of the world how a welcoming and generous spirit forms the backbone of what makes our country so great.
The launch of the organization comes as Biden readies a plan to hugely open the routes by which refugee resettlement is bankrolled. Specifically, the Biden plan would privatize refugee resettlement so that corporations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) can bring refugees to the U.S.
Axios reports:
The plan being put together by the State Department would allow private companies, advocacy groups and local communities to directly support — and even bring in — refugees, according to conversations with multiple advocates familiar with it. [Emphasis added]
…
The program would mirror Canada’s private refugee resettlement system — which is extremely popular. [Emphasis added]
…
The policy details are still being worked out by the State Department, including how many people are required to sponsor a refugee and how much private resettlement could happen without oversight from refugee agencies. [Emphasis added]

California Sheriff Stands Up to Federal Government: Refuses to Implement Vaccine Mandate
A sheriff in California has made it clear he will not be enforcing the federal vaccine mandate on his employees at the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office.
On September 13 press release, Sheriff Chad Bianco focused on sweeping vaccine mandates implemented by the Biden administration on September 9. The press release referenced a podcast the sheriff’s office had recently produced that calls into question the federal government’s authority to mandate a vaccine.
“Over the past couple of weeks, the idea of forced vaccination has caused much concern across the entire country. There is absolutely nothing in my podcast that was incorrect or irresponsible,” the release read. “It is factual and common sense based. To repeat the context of the podcast, I will not enforce the vaccine mandate on Sheriff’s Department employees.”
“In November of 2018 the residents of Riverside county elected me as their Sheriff. I stood before God and swore an oath to the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution of the State of California,” the sheriff continued. “It is my responsibility to protect the public from the criminal element, as well as being the last line of defense from tyrannical government overreach. The government has no ability and no authority to mandate your health choices. As your Sheriff I have an obligation to guard your liberty and freedom.”
The sheriff ended the release by writing, “It is time our government and our politicians come to the realization that the only reason they exist is that “we the people” formed our government to secure the blessings of individual liberty and freedom.”
Bianco previously addressed Biden’s vaccine mandate on the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department podcast, the RSO Roundup, on September 9. “As far as I am concerned I will not mandate a vaccine for our employees. We will not make it mandatory for any new employee to be vaccinated or our current ones. I believe that that’s a very very personal choice, that you need to make the decision,” he explained.
The sheriff went on to highlight the federal government’s rhetoric at the beginning of the pandemic when the primary goal was to “flatten the curve”:
You can’t get over the fact that they initially said two weeks. Our entire mission was flatten the curve. Two weeks to flatten the curve, then it went to month, then it when to two months, four months, six months, then it went to the curve is flat, but we’re still going to have all these things in place, and then the vaccine came out and now we’ve learned that the vaccine may not be as effective as what you think it is.
Bianco pointed out that the mandate ignores those that have earned natural immunity. “They want to mandate a vaccine, but they don’t care that you’ve already had it and gotten over it, and then they’re going to mandate and say you need a booster because it’s going away so fast now, but our own immune system is not going away,” he explained.
His comments come after thousands of California state workers and healthcare workers make plans to avoid mandates.

REPORT: ‘About 15 People’ Present For Milley’s Secret CCP Phone Calls, Def Sec Esper, Acting Def Sec Miller Had ‘Full Knowledge’
The plot thickens…
Former Trump Administration Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller has come out and said that he “did not and would not ever authorize” General Mark Milley’s calls with the CCP. However, Fox News was told that he and Defense Secretary Mark Esper had “full knowledge” of the secret calls, including “about 15” other people.
Christopher Miller, the former Acting Secretary of Defense under the Trump administration, has come out and said that General Mark Milley’s secret calls with the Chinese Communist Party were not authorized by him, adding that he “did not and would not ever authorize” Milley’s actions, which many have described as “treason” against the United States.
However, Fox News reported that there were “about 15 people” present for the calls, adding that there were multiple note takers present. According to the report, the calls were both conducted with “full knowledge of then-Defense Secretary Mark Esper and then-acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller – something Miller denied.” (READ MORE: Milley ADMITS To Secretly Calling CCP General, Promising Advanced Notice Of Attack Amid Accusations Of ‘Treason’)
Furthermore, Esper was reportedly significantly involved in the secret CCP calls alongside Milley. “Milley was absolutely not going rogue. Esper took the initiative on this in October. Esper asked his own policy folks to backchannel the message. Milley’s message followed Esper’s,” said Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin after speaking to a senior defense official who confirmed the allegation.
Milley came clean and admitted that he contacted the CCP in January and October, but maintains that he was acting within his authority, as National File reported. Many, including former President Donald Trump, have said that Milley’s actions amount to “treason.” (READ MORE: Trump Releases Statement On ‘Dumbass’ Milley’s Treasonous Phone Call, Says General ‘Concocted’ Story With Woodward)
“I assume he would be tried for TREASON in that he would have been dealing with his Chinese counterpart behind the President’s back and telling China that he would be giving them notification ‘of an attack,’” Trump said in a statement.

Sen. Paul: Gen. Milley's calls to China could have sparked 'accidental nuclear war,' wants polygraph
A Milley spokesperson has confirmed the calls and said Defense Department knew about them
Republican Sen. Rand Paul said Wednesday that Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley "could have started an accidental nuclear war" if he indeed made unauthorized phone calls to China in the final weeks of the Trump presidency to assure Beijing that the U.S. would not attack the country.
The assertion that Milley made two such calls is reportedly included in an upcoming book titled "Peril" by Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Robert Costa.
Milley, as President Trump's top military adviser, made several authorized calls between the time Trump was losing reelection in 2020 and after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, amid his reported concerns that the world was on edge over both matters and that Trump was in an unstable emotional state.
"If I were president, I would sit him down immediately and have him take a polygraph test and ask him, 'What did you say to the Chinese?'" Paul, a Kentucky lawmaker, said on the John Solomon Reports podcast.
"Did you indicate that the president was liable to attack them and that you would try to prevent that? If that is true, that could have started an accidental nuclear war."
Milley spokesperson Col. Dave Butler on Wednesday confirmed the calls and said those with the Chinese and others in October 2020 and January were "in keeping with these duties and responsibilities conveying reassurance in order to maintain strategic stability," according to CNBC.
Bultler also said Milley's calls were coordinated with the rest of the Defense Department and other relevant agencies.
Milley did not tell Trump about the calls.
Woodward and Costa say in their forthcoming book Milley learned in October of last year that the Chinese had become concerned that Trump would preemptively attack China because he was losing reelection and his rhetoric against China was growing increasingly hostile.
Milley again called his Chinese counterpart on Jan. 8, two days after the attack on the U.S. Capitol, to again reassure him that the U.S. government was stable (amid his reported concerns Trump had become increasingly unstable) and no immediate threat to China, CNBC also reports.
"We could have a nuclear war over a mistake because the general is going outside the line of command to insinuate something that nobody believes to be true, but actually could have started a war," he said. "So really, instead of actually calming tensions, he could have actually started an accidental war."

House Panel Rejects Drug Price Control Bill In Stunning Blow To Pelosi
The House Committee on Energy and Commerce rejected a key drug control bill in a stunning rebuke of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Democratic leadership.
“For many years now, I’ve been committed to addressing drug prices in a meaningful way,” Democratic Rep. Kurt Schrader, who voted against the bill, said during the hearing. “Americans, regardless of political affiliation, have made it clear Congress has to actually act and get something done.”
The legislation would have allowed Medicare to negotiate prices directly with pharmaceutical companies and created a $2,000 limit on out-of-pocket costs for Medicare recipients, according to Politico.
The House Committee on Energy and Commerce rejected a key drug pricing control bill in a stunning rebuke of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Democratic leadership.
Democratic Reps. Kurt Schrader, Scott Peters and Kathleen Rice voted alongside their Republican colleagues on the panel, creating a 29-29 tie on the vote to pass the legislation during a committee hearing Wednesday. The hearing was held to mark up parts of Democrats’ sweeping $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation package, the Build Back Better Act.
“For many years now, I’ve been committed to addressing drug prices in a meaningful way,” Schrader said during the markup. “Americans, regardless of political affiliation, have made it clear Congress has to actually act and get something done.”
The Oregon representative added that the committee should focus on bipartisan solutions to high drug prices. He also listed several provisions — including one that requires pharmaceutical companies to adjust prices based on an international index — in the bill, which he said would stifle innovation.
In addition to implementing the international index, the legislation would have allowed Medicare to negotiate prices directly with pharmaceutical companies and created a $2,000 limit on out-of-pocket costs for Medicare recipients, according to Politico.
“America will not win the future, if Speaker Pelosi’s socialist price controls were jammed in the Democrat’s reckless tax and spending spree,” Ranking Member Cathy McMorris Rodgers said in a statement following the vote. “It would lead to less innovation, fewer cures, and no hope for many people who deserve a fighting chance at life.”
Both Pelosi and President Joe Biden had pushed heavily for the bill’s passage in recent months.
“Why should we be paying two or three times what every other country in the world is paying for a similar drug? There’s so much we can do,” the president said during remarks on Aug. 12 at the White House.
Pelosi said the legislation was “bold action” to level the playing field for Americans.
