THE OLD WHORE RANKS AS ONE OF THE MOST CORRUPT AND SELF-SERVING IN AMERICAN HISTORY. SHE IS A MAKE RED CHINA GREATER DEM
Democratic senator Dianne Feinstein (Calif.), 90, had to be instructed to "just say aye" during a vote in a Thursday committee hearing.
During an Appropriations subcommittee meeting, Feinstein was called on for a roll call vote on the Defense Appropriations Act when she began to give a speech in support of the bill instead of voting.
"I would like to support a ‘yes’ vote on this. It provides $823 billion, that's an increase of $26 billion for the Department of Defense and it funds priorities..." Feinstein read off a sheet before a staffer attempted to explain it was a vote. Fellow Democratic senator Patty Murray (Wash.) then cut in and said, "Just say aye."
Feinstein replied "Okay ... just?" before finally giving her affirmative vote.
It's the latest episode of confusion for the elderly senator, who was at home for three months earlier this year with a serious case of the shingles that included vision and balance impairments caused by Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
Upon her return in May, Feinstein seemed to forget that she had been gone.
"No, I haven’t been gone," she told reporters in May after she was asked how her colleagues have treated her since she returned to the Senate.
"No, I’ve been here. I’ve been voting," Feinstein said. "Please. You either know or don’t know."
Some Democrats, including Reps. Ro Khanna (Calif.) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), have called for Feinstein to step down after her months-long health struggle.
Feinstein announced in February that she plans to retire after this term but then quickly seemed to forget she had made the announcement.
Her mishaps are not new. A book released earlier this year detailed how Feinstein confused one black senator for another. In 2021, she approached Sen. Tim Scott (R., S.C.), who has been in the Senate since 2013, and "stuck out her hand, and told him she had been rooting for him and was so happy to have him serving with her in the Senate." Scott and his team said that "Feinstein had mistaken the South Carolinian for Raphael Warnock, the newly elected Democratic senator from Georgia."

Report: China Looks to Flood U.S. Market with Cheap Electric Vehicles
Chinese automakers are looking to flood the United States market with cheap Electric Vehicles (EVs) as President Joe Biden’s administration has made a rapid all-electric, green energy push without having first ensured domestic manufacturing capacity.
According to Axios, Chinese automakers like BYD Co. Ltd., Li Auto, Xpeng Motors, Nio Inc., and Geely are looking to the U.S. market to sell cheap EVs to Americans as the Biden administration makes its push for an all-electric economy.
“William Li, CEO of Chinese EV company Nio, recently told the Financial Times that the U.S. should offer Chinese EVs equal access to the American market, arguing that carmakers shouldn’t be victims of U.S.-China political tensions,” Axios reports:
In fact, some China-built cars are already for sale in the U.S. under Western brands, including the Buick Envision, Polestar 2 and soon, the Lincoln Nautilus. And China’s BYD is already the largest manufacturer of electric buses in North America. [Emphasis added]
…
Chinese automakers will likely follow the same script as Japanese and Korean brands decades ago: Use imports to exploit a void in the U.S. market, learn quickly and then go deeper with factories on American soil.
[Emphasis added]
Breitbart News Senior Editor-at-Large Rebecca Mansour has long warned that without major investment in domestic manufacturing and auto workers, steep tariffs, and time for American automakers to adjust, China will dominate the EV industry.
“A Biden-led administration’s rapid push towards an all-electric future would rob U.S. auto workers of the advantage of experience and U.S. auto plants of the advantage of previously built manufacturing capacity,” Mansour wrote in October 2020:
Biden’s rapid push towards EV would tempt American automakers to train workers in China and invest in new plants there — a temptation that will likely be fostered by almost unlimited state subsidies from the Chinese regime and one-way trade barriers that will make it easier to sell cars in the U.S. and China if they are made in China. [Emphasis added]
Given time and a Trump administration’s protections of U.S. manufacturing, U.S. automakers could be incentivized to train American workers to build EVs and to invest in U.S. capacity. Rushed and without tariffs, most of this will likely end up in China — just like all the rest of American manufacturing thanks to decades of failed trade policies like Joe Biden’s. [Emphasis added]
Already, China is dominating the critical minerals that are needed to produce EV batteries. Supply chains of minerals like nickel, graphite, lithium, and cobalt — all needed to make the batteries — are controlled by China.s from Breitbart News Network to the email you provide.

Most recently, the United Auto Workers (UAW) has blasted the Biden administration for shifting billions to American automakers through its all-electric, green energy agenda, while American auto workers are experiencing wage cuts as a result of moving to EVs.
In one particular example, the UAW noted that while General Motors (GM) and LG’s EV battery plant in Lordstown, Ohio, known as Ultium Cells, could rake in more than $1 billion annually from Biden’s EV tax credits, while workers at the plant have seen their wages cut in nearly half.
“… there is a real danger that hundreds of billions in taxpayer dollars will subsidize an EV industry that underpays and endangers workers,” UAW officials have said.
