Pennsylvania banned the use of private dollars to run elections last week after Governor Tom Wolf (D-PA) signed legislation from the Republican-led legislature. SB 982 — sponsored by State Sen. Lisa Baker, a Republican who chairs the Pennsylvania Senate Judiciary Committee — prohibits officials from seeking funds from any nongovernmental entity for “the registration of voters or the preparation, administration or conducting of an election,” and creates an “election integrity grant program” by which the commonwealth government can help counties administer elections.

Americans know about Hunter Biden’s corrupt deals overseas in Russia, Ukraine, and China. We have reported on these deals over the past few years. We never thought a family could be as corrupt as the Clintons but the Bidens may actually be.

A government ethics watchdog is now filing a lawsuit against the Department of Justice, accusing the department of “hiding” information from the public concerning the withholding of records about potential bias and conflicts of interest involving high-profile cases such as the Durham investigations and the probe into Hunter Biden and his business dealings.
Just the News is reporting that in June 2021, Protect the Public’s Trust filed a Freedom of Information Act request to the DOJ in order to obtain records from the agency’s Justice Management Division. It’s now been over a year and the department has not bothered to inform the watchdog
“End of the quote. Repeat the line.” Such is the senescence of the 46th president of the United States that when he is not flat-out misspeaking, it is because he is reading the cues as he stumbles through the see-Jane-run prose of White House speechwriters. Like life at 79, the teleprompts come at you fast.
We must bear this in mind when assessing how consequential it may be when the putative leader of the free world misspeaks. We gasp, yes, but it is probably not as damaging as one might fear.
Alas, that realization induces as much pang of regret as sigh of relief.
Sacramento's homeless population has spiraled out of control, soaring by 67 percent in just three years - pushing the numbers even higher than nearby San Francisco as photos show tent cities and communities of the unhoused living under bridges.
California's capital has just over 5,000 homeless people within the city limits, many living in vehicles and tents, compared to the 4,400 homeless people estimated to live in San Francisco.
However, the number becomes more stark when factoring in the city's population numbers - only 525,000 people live in Sacramento versus San Francisco's 874,000.
Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) confirmed Monday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” what his January 6 Committee colleague Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) said days earlier.
According to the California Democrat lawmaker, witnesses continued “to come forward” to share information with the committee. Therefore, the committee could add more hearings.
Maddow said, “What should we understand in terms of how close to the end you are? We keep hearing from you and other members of the committee that there’s still more to find out, there’s still more to get to the bottom of, that the investigation has turned up a lot of stuff, actually, in recent days
Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine said transgender youths need to be empowered to get “gender affirmation treatment” on MSNBC Monday.
Levine, who is transgender, said transgender youths are threatened by mental health issues, bullying and political attacks, and that treatment of these youths should affirm their perceived gender identity and empower them to get sex change treatments.
WATCH: (Video) “So we really want to base our treatment and to affirm and to support and empower these youth not to limit their participation in activities in sports and even limit their ability to get gender affirmation treatment in their state,”

Florida first lady Casey DeSantis hit back Monday at Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom after the governor claimed he launched his ad blitz in the state over the Special Olympics.
Newsom said Friday he ran the the campaign attack against Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis after DeSantis told the Special Olympics it would be fined for violating state law over the COVID-19 vaccine mandate.

Taxpayer-funded National Public Radio (NPR) is getting roasted on social media after management announced that it is creating a permanent disinformation reporting team that had been operating on a temporary basis.
NPR, a network consumed with identity politics, famously or infamously suppressed the Hunter Biden ‘laptop from hell’ story, because it was a waste of time and a “pure distraction.”
Although this statement does not seem to appear on the main NPR website, Nevada Public Radio posted a staff note purportedly from Terence Samuel, VP and Executive Editor, and Nancy Barnes, SVP of News and Editorial Director, in which the duo claimed that disinformation “has emerged as one of
President Joe Biden is currently on pace to bring about 2.1 million illegal aliens to the United States-Mexico border by the end of the year.
Steve Kopits with the Princeton Policy Advisors projects that in fiscal year 2022, Biden will entice about 2.1 million illegal aliens to the southern border — an annual record for illegal immigration that surpasses Biden’s record-setting levels for 2021.
“Overall, the situation at the border is largely unchanged. The Open Borders policy remains in place,” Kopits wrote in an analysis. (Graph) The projection comes as Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that nearly 192,000 border crossers were apprehended in June.
Donald Trump's infamous former adviser Steve Bannon laid into the House January 6 committee on Monday upon conclusion of the first day of his criminal trial for contempt of Congress.
Bannon was indicted by a grand jury late last year for failing to comply with the January 6 committee's subpoena as it investigates why and how a pro-Trump mob was able to breach the US Capitol last year as Joe Biden's 2020 victory was being certified.
The 'War Room' podcast host recently made an about-face and requested to cooperate with lawmakers, though he's insisted through attorneys that it was Trump's executive privilege claim that kept him from speaking with

A family in Florida drove into a major problem after buying a used electric vehicle: the replacement battery for their dead car wound up costing more than the used car was purchased for. Avery Siwinski is a 17-year-old who's parents spent $11,000 on a used Ford Focus Electric car, which is a 2014 model and had about 60,000 miles when it was bought, according to KVUE. The teenager had the car for six months before it began giving her issues and the dashboard was flashing symbols. "It was fine at first," Siwinski said. "I loved it so much. It was
Canada’s medical assistance in dying (MAiD) law is already the most permissive euthanasia and assisted-suicide legislation in the world.
Understandably controversial in itself, there are many horror stories surrounding its implementation. For example, as lifesitenews.com recently reported,
A 71-year-old widower was admitted to a Southwestern Ontario hospital after a fall. His family says during his admission he contracted an infectious diarrheal illness. He was humiliated by staff for the smell of his room, his family said. He developed a new shortness of breath that was not comprehensively assessed. In this context, a hospital team member suggested he would qualify for MAiD.
The good Samaritan who shot and killed the gunman who opened fire in the Greenwood Park Mall in Indiana on Sunday afternoon reportedly broke the property's policy against weapons.

Dr. Deborah Birx, White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator for President Trump, launched her book about her one-person attack on our form of government and our economy under the guise of saving us from the Wuhan virus. Though it has been out for a couple of months, it is only now attracting the attention it deserves.

Mehmet Oz, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania endorsed by former President Donald Trump, claimed the “MAGA movement is dying” in a fundraising message sent to his supporters. Oz won Pennsylvania’s GOP Senate primary by a narrow margin with the help of Trump’s endorsement.

Former Democratic Labor Secretary Robert Reich believes it may be time for Democrats to kick Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., out of the party because they "already lost control over the Senate" and can’t get anything done despite appearing to have power. Reich, who served as secretary of Labor under President Clinton and was a member of President Obama’s economic transition advisory board, wrote on Substack that kicking Manchin out of the party would at least allow Democrats to admit they didn’t truly have control when Americans head off to vote in the looming midterm elections. Manchin's office had reportedly told

Sen. Bernie Sanders accused Sen. Joe Manchin of “intentionally sabotaging” President Biden’s agenda after the West Virginia Democrat pulled his support from legislation that included initiatives to battle climate change and raise taxes on corporations and wealthy individuals.
“He has sabotaged the president’s agenda,” Sanders (I-Vt.) said Sunday on ABC News’ “This Week.”
“If you check the record, six months ago, I made it clear that you have people like Manchin, Sinema to a lesser degree, who are intentionally sabotaging the president’s agenda, what the American people, what a majority of us in the Democratic caucus want. Nothing new about this,” he told host Martha Raddatz, referring to Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema.
