OOPS: Media Warned of ‘Jim Crow 2.0,’ Now Black Turnout Is Soaring

Advertisements

When Georgia passed its voter ID law in March 2021, Democrats and the media went ballistic. They dubbed it “Jim Crow 2.0” and launched an economic boycott that led to the MLB pulling the All-Star Game from the state.

But as Georgians went to the polls last week, a funny thing happened. Early voter participation rose more than 150 percent across the board, and early voting among black voters is higher than ever before.

The White House on Monday walked back President Joe Biden’s comments declaring the United States would defend Taiwan against a Chinese invasion, the latest instance of the president’s own administration repudiating his foreign policy statements.

At a news conference in Tokyo after Biden met with Japanese prime minister Fumio Kishida, a reporter asked the president whether the United States would “get involved militarily to defend Taiwan.”

“Yes,” Biden replied. “That’s the commitment we made.”

The declaration would have represented a departure from U.S. foreign policy, which has been ambiguous as to whether the United States would defend Taiwan from

Senate Republican foreign policy leaders are demanding the Biden administration pull nearly $1 million in taxpayer funding for groups to investigate alleged human rights abuses in Israel, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip—an effort that the senators say is fueling a “new anti-Semitism.”

The State Department’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL) announced in March it will pay nonprofit groups up to $987,654 to “strengthen accountability and human rights in Israel and the West Bank and Gaza,” according to a grant notice first posted online in February.
