Last Thursday, Joe Biden told immigration zealots that he agreed with the idea of eliminating Immigration and Customs Enforcement, but now he claims he was juuuuust joking. During his rally in Georgia on Thursday, Biden was interrupted by activists who support illegal aliens. They began shouting “Abolish ICE!” Biden said he is working on getting rid of the department. As the activists screamed, Biden initially replied, “We’ll give you a microphone.” But as they continued chanting “Abolish ICE,” and “End detention now,” Biden finally said, “I agree with you. I’m working on it. Give me another five days.” https://twitter.com/karentravers/status/1387896951212056591 But now Biden says that he was just “teasing” the activists and he really isn’t working on eliminating ICE. “I was teasing them,” Biden told the press. “I think they were just very emotionally excited,” he continued. Biden added that he thought the protesters were demanding the end of private prisons and said he supported that goal. “That’s why I stopped and let them go on a little bit,” Biden told reporters. “And then, when I found out they wanted me to do it immediately like I could sign a paper and make it happen.” Follow Warner Todd Huston on Facebook at: facebook.com/Warner.Todd.Huston.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel noted that the program “pays up to 120% of direct or guaranteed farm loan balances for producers who are Black, American Indian or Alaskan native, Hispanic or Latino, and Asian American or Pacific Islander.” But white producers do not qualify. “Were plaintiffs eligible for the loan forgiveness benefit, they would have the opportunity to make additional investments in their property, expand their farms, purchase equipment and supplies, and otherwise support their families and local communities,” the lawsuit reads. “Because plaintiffs are ineligible to even apply for the program solely due to their race, they have been denied the equal protection of the law and therefore suffered harm.” According to the Biden administration website, the race-based programs are in response to the coronavirus. “USDA recognizes that socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers have faced systemic discrimination with cumulative effects that have, among other consequences, led to a substantial loss in the number of socially disadvantaged producers, reduced the amount of farmland they control, and contributed to a cycle of debt that was exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic. During the pandemic, socially disadvantaged communities saw a disproportionate amount of COVID-19…
