Joe Biden is reportedly considering former presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg to be his Ambassador to China.

According to The Daily Caller:

President-elect Joe Biden is reportedly considering his former competitor Pete Buttigieg ambassador to in China after ruling him out as his ambassador to the United Nations, Axios reported.

China isn’t the only foreign post that Buttigieg could be selected for, and the former Democratic Mayor of South Bend, Indiana, has communicated his interest in foreign policy and national security positions in the incoming administration, according to Axios.

Buttigieg was a top contender for U.N. Ambassador, but Biden selected Linda Thomas-Greenfield for the position, a 35-year veteran of the foreign service who also oversaw the Bureau of African Affairs under the Obama administration.

The U.S. ambassador to China has typically been someone who is in the middle or toward the end of their career, and an ambassador would enter the role following heightened tensions between the U.S. and China related to the coronavirus pandemic, Uighur human rights abuses in Xinjiang and trade disputes, according to Axios.

Biden has compared Buttigieg to his late son Beau.

Did any one see the statement that Biden wants to destroy Israel and work with the Muslims. One to One and bringing millions of them here to turn America into a Muslim Country? I did.

Please Lord, bring the Rapture quickly. We are entering a lawless and evil society in our once wonderfully free USA. Pray for salvation so you will be a part of Jesus’ family. The anti-Christ will soon arrive within a few years maybe but we will not be here.

Neither Biden or the leftist damnocrats are interested in protecting this nation from China. They are only interested in exploitation of this nation to the maximum extent possible for their own gain!

Send him as ambassador to Saudi Arabia. That will solve the problem of Biden. Permanently.

TO: Americans
Cc: President Donald J. Trump

RE: Rape, Pillage, Plunder; America we’ve been had! And … it’s our own fault! 

The year was 1960. It was the last year of the Eisenhower administration. In one of his last public addresses President Eisenhower warned the American people that if we do not stand up to elitists among us and especially those in close association with the so-called ‘Military/Industrial Complex’ and ‘The New World Order’ we would one day loose our freedom. That same year I joined the U.S. Army full of what I now describe as misguided youthful patriotism with the primary goal of serving as a soldier as long as my health permitted me to make a meaningful contribution in protecting/serving my fellow Americans. By 2005 I had to admit that as a member of the ‘Profession of Arms’ and then the ‘Blue’ for over 45 years I and my brothers/sisters under arms had failed to protect the American people from ‘all’ of their enemies, both foreign and ‘most especially’ domestic!

I retreated to the deep woods and went about installing security measures learned as a soldier in the jungles of Vietnam and on the desert sands of the Middle East. I even trained two large working dogs to the standards used by the army and air force to protect nuclear weapons.

When the local sheriff (also a fellow deacon) came for a visit I think he was somewhat taken aback by my response when he asked:

“Do really think you need all of these security measures to protect your property and family from intruders?”

My response was;

“I did not install these security measures to protect my property and family from intruders. These security measures are intended to protect intruders from me!” 

I attempted to warn my fellow American many times in many ways that the greatest threat to their overall freedom was that presented by the incompetent and/or corrupt American politicians, bureaucrats, academicians, and media bent on selling their souls and our bodies for power and money. Yes, the same folks who have succeeded in the years since WWII in making the American people the most effectively lied to people in modern times. By the time Obama was elected to his second term I took a vow to never leave my woods and to wait for Jesus to return. I abandoned that vow when the man who is Donald J. Trump presented an extremely strong case that he is the first true ‘Battle Captain’ to serve since Andrew Jackson! 

In 2017 five retired military officers and I presented President Trump with a detailed plan as to how to drain the swamp that is the American government at nearly every level. We called the plan, the ‘Citizens Emergency Constitutional Ordinance’ (CECO). The CECO was/is designed to rid the government at every level of those self-serving, witless, cowards who only want to rule the American people and retain/recruit only those who want to serve/protect Americans. Then as now the three surviving officers of our group are ready to pick up a weapon and stand a post, are you?

God bless and protect each of you,

Well now I’ve heard it all. Joe has finally slipped over the edge. Camella, time to man up.

Every time Biden suggests another appointment for some office I cringe. If I made a list of the worst people to represent the USA in any capacity, all his ‘candidates’ are already on the list. My expectations for the survival of our country in anything that resembles America as “the Land of the free and the home of the brave” are zero to minus 10. We have become the land of the blind followers and the home of the wimps.
