    At this point I could care less whether Joe can remember where his navel is or not. He's doing a Great Job! GO JOE! And wow, those people he's picked to run the agencies are super sharp!

    Say good-bye to Biden's dogs in the White House... Guess Newsmax is right, they didn't measure up.


    Biden’s dogs returned to Delaware after ‘biting incident’ and ‘aggressive behaviour’
    Major, 3, and Champ, 13, have been living in White House since January

    US president Joe Biden’s two dogs have reportedly been returned to the Biden family home in Delaware after displaying “aggressive behaviour” at the White House.

    The family’s two German Shepherds, 3-year-old Major and 13-year-old Champ, were moved into the White House in January following Mr Biden’s inauguration.

    But a source cited by CNN said the dogs were moved back to Wilmington, Delaware, last week after a “biting incident” involving Major and a member of White House security.

    The extent of any injury to the victim is not known, but the incident was deemed serious enough to send both Major and Champ back to the family home.

    Major has been known to behave in a more agitated manner, including jumping, barking and “charging” at stage, according to sources. Champ is much less active physically due to his age.

    In an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show last month, Jill Biden said she was “obsessed with getting our dogs settled because we have an old dog and we have a very young dog”.

    She said: “They have to take the elevator, they’re not used to that, and they have to go out on the South Lawn with lots of people watching them.

    “So that’s what I’ve been obsessed with, getting everybody settled and calm.”

    Champ was adopted as a puppy in 2008, shortly after Mr Biden became vice-president to former US president Barack Obama. Major was adopted in 2018 and is the first White House dog to have come from a shelter.

    A person “familiar with the dogs’ schedule” confirmed to CNN that Major and Champ were in Delaware, but added they had been known to stay there when Ms Biden was out of town.

    A Twitter account dedicated to the dogs, called “The First Dogs of the United States”, tweeted a photo of Major and Champ as recently as Monday.

    But in a tweet on Tuesday, it said: “Aggressive behaviour? Never. Good boi just loves humans and want to play. Will miss the White House. - Major.”

    The Independent has contacted the White House for comment.

    Yeah... whatever. look who's been evicted from the White House this week.

    More likely the dog was biting the Democratic hand that was feeding him. Sort of like the ANTIFA rioters.

    And you have been defending that left-wing nutcases cancelling people and things is perfectly acceptable -- because everyone who does not follow your extreme-left wing doctrine is a Nazi who deserves to be cancelled.

    Goldman Sachs predicts U.S. economy will grow 8% this year

    Economists at Goldman Sachs raised their GDP growth expectations for the U.S. economy to 8% for 2021 in a note to clients on Sunday night.

    Why it matters: If Goldman's forecast is correct, it would mark the largest economic expansion for the U.S. in generations.

    • Not only would 8% annual growth denote a stupendous turnaround from the coronavirus pandemic, it would significantly outpace the firm's growth expectations for the U.S. from as recently as late 2020.
    What they're saying: "We have raised our GDP forecast to reflect the latest fiscal policy news and now expect 8% growth in 2021 (Q4/Q4) and an unemployment rate of 4% at end-2021 — the lowest among consensus forecasts—that falls to 3.5% in 2022 and 3.2% in 2023," Goldman said in the note.

    • "But we expect inflation dynamics to mirror those last cycle, and therefore expect this forecast to translate to only 2.1% core PCE inflation in 2023."
    Between the lines: Goldman has been exceptionally bullish on the prospects for U.S. growth all year, far outpacing most other Wall Street banks' expectations.

    • The average growth expectation among Wall Street analysts is 4.7%, according to FactSet, and was 3.9% as recently as November.
    • Further, economic growth of 8% with inflation reaching just 2.1% would be almost unprecedented.
    By the numbers: A growth of 8% this year would put U.S. GDP at around $22.6 trillion, marking a full recovery after the economy shrank 4.1% in 2020.

    • U.S. GDP hasn't grown 8% in a year since 1951, when it totaled $356 billion.
    Of note: Goldman's metric tracks fourth quarter over fourth quarter growth, rather than year over year. upload_2021-3-16_0-34-0.png
