War Day 32 :: conversations with @Alexey Arestovych

There is a lot of pro-Putin bias in the Western world. We aim to dispel this “macho” propaganda and reveal true colors of his regime: murder, intimidation, industrialized kleptocracy and well-funded russian fascism propaganda machines. We were born in Russia, we have lost friends to this murderer… we see how he “zombifies” most and intimidates and beats down the rest. We also know where his weak spots are and what atrocities his regime is committing on a daily basis. Message from the source channel owner.

Readout of White House State Legislative Convening on Holding Gun Manufacturers Accountable

Yesterday, Stefanie Feldman, Deputy Assistant to the President and Senior Advisor to the Domestic Policy Advisor, and Morgan Mohr, Senior Advisor to the Office of Intergovernmental Affairs, met with state legislators from across the country to discuss state efforts to hold gun manufacturers accountable. As the President continues to call for the repeal of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) — a federal law that denies many victims of gun violence their day in court and prevents the public from holding gunmakers accountable — the White House is also working with state and local officials to advance…

Statement from National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan Welcoming Developments in Iraq’s Energy Sector

We welcome significant progress in Iraq this week with respect to energy deals that further strengthen Iraq’s sovereignty, independence, and economic prosperity.  First, the Government of Iraq and the Kurdistan Regional Government reached a historic agreement on the export of oil and management of revenues through the Iraq-Turkey Pipeline.  This agreement paves the way for a multi-year budget now before Iraq’s Council of Representatives and an eventual hydrocarbons law for long-term stability and predictability in Iraq’s energy sector.  Second, the Government of Iraq reached an unprecedented $27 billion deal with France’s TotalEnergies, including a project to enable the recapture and…

Statement from President Joe Biden on March Jobs Report

This is a good jobs report for hard-working Americans. Today’s report shows that we continue to face economic challenges from a position of strength, with the economy adding 236,000 jobs last month and the unemployment rate at 3.5%. My economic agenda has powered an historic economic recovery. We’ve created 12.6 million jobs since I took office. The unemployment rate is close to the lowest it has been in more than 50 years and a record low for African Americans. Thanks to the policies we have put in place, the recovery is creating good jobs that you can raise a family…

     On National Former Prisoner of War Recognition Day, we honor the more than half a million service members who sacrificed their freedom as prisoners of war in order to defend freedom for their fellow Americans.  These brave patriots remind us of the grave costs of war and the sacrifice we ask of those who fight for us.  We owe them and their families, caregivers, and survivors a debt of gratitude we can never fully repay.      This year, we mark the 50th anniversary of Operation Homecoming, the repatriation of nearly 600 Americans held captive during the Vietnam War, as…

Statement from President Joe Biden on Expulsion of Tennessee Lawmakers for Acting on Gun Safety

Last week, three more students and three school officials were gunned down in yet another tragic mass shooting in Nashville. On Monday, 7,000 Tennesseans, many of them students, marched to their state capitol to call on their lawmakers to take action and keep them safe. Instead, state Republican lawmakers called votes today to expel three Democratic legislators who stood in solidarity with students and families and helped lift their voices. Today’s expulsion of lawmakers who engaged in peaceful protest is shocking, undemocratic, and without precedent. Rather than debating the merits of the issue, these Republican lawmakers have chosen to punish, silence, and…
