The White House brushed off on Thursday the suggestion of President Joe Biden pardoning his son, Hunter, after a judge placed a plea deal on hold.
“No,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in response to a reporter who asked if there was any possibility of a pardon. She quickly moved on to another question.
Republican Indiana Rep. Jim Banks sent a letter Wednesday to Department of Agriculture Sec. Tom Vilsack demanding answers over a department rule change Banks said would block religious schools from participating in the USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service programs. The rule change falls under the department’s Title IX sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) provision.
(snip) Banks mentions the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) blocking preschoolers enrolled at the Church of Compassion Dayspring Learning Center from qualifying for free lunches provided by the USDA’s Child and Adult Food Care Program in December 2022, because the preschool objected to the USDA’s SOGI rule.
Dylan Mulvaney, a transgender TikTok influencer, will be embarking on a college speaking tour soon and will be charging up to $40k in fees to talk on subjects like “female empowerment.”
Mulvaney announced the upcoming speaking tour in an Instagram story last weekend that encouraged college students to book speaking engagements through the agency Crista Spadafore.
Bud Light parent company Anheuser-Busch laid off hundreds of U.S. workers after Bud Light sales declined for months following a collaboration between Bud Light and transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney.
Anheuser-Busch said the layoffs would impact less than two percent of its nearly 18,000 U.S. workforce.

Joe Biden’s Claims 9 replies
Hunter Biden’s lawyer, Chris Clark, admitted in court Wednesday the president’s son received $664,000 from CEFC China Energy Co. in 2017, contradicting President Joe Biden’s claim Hunter Biden never received money from a Chinese entity. (snip) In the 2020 election cycle, the president told voters on the debate stage he nor his son ever made money from a Chinese entity. (snip) “My son has not made money in terms of this thing about, what are you talking about, China,” Biden said. “The only guy who made money from China is this guy [Donald Trump]."
Bill Stevenson, the ex-husband of first lady Jill Biden, said Wednesday on Newsmax that he has been a target of the “very dangerous … Biden crime family.” Stevenson discussed his divorce (snip) “Frankie Biden of the Biden crime family comes up to me and he goes, ‘Give her the house or you’re going to have serious problems.’ I looked at Frankie and I said, ‘Are you threatening me?’ and needless to say, about two months later, my brother and I were indicted for that tax charge for $8,200.” (snip) “I was on the wrong side of them, and they have literally come after me for 35 years in a row."
Does abortion really constitute health care?
12 replies
Health care for some should not involve paying for the death of others.
Despite the Dobbs v. Jackson ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, many pro-abortion advocates still claim that “abortion is health care.” This erroneous phrase misses the mark when it comes to what health care truly is.
When doctors take their oath to “do no harm,” there is an inherent understanding that human life is sacred and therefore not something easily given up or taken away. To take an innocent life -- for whatever reason -- does not constitute health care.
Who is Judge Noreika?
9 replies
Federal Judge Maryellen Noreika is suddenly in the spotlight. Today she refused to approve Hunter Biden’s plea agreement, as we have discussed in several previous posts. Liberals immediately denounced Judge Noreika as a Trump appointee. All of which raises the question: who is she? (snip) Noreika graduated from Lehigh University, got a masters degree in biology from Columbia, and her law degree, magna cum laude, from Pittsburgh University, where she was a member of the Law Review.
Her career in private practice was with the Morris, Nichols law firm in Wilmington, Delaware. Morris, Nichols is a good, medium-sized firm. She did intellectual property litigation, mostly patent lawsuits.

The FBI furnished key files to the House Judiciary Committee Tuesday regarding its work to combat domestic Catholic extremism and an uptick in threats against school administrators.
Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Oh.) subpoenaed the files and threatened to hold FBI director Christopher Wray in contempt if he refused to hand them over. Jordan had given Wray a July 25 deadline. Now that the bureau has handed over the batch of records, Jordan’s team plans to review the documents and is keeping its options open.
Monday on FNC’s “The Ingraham Angle,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) revealed that he had once again made a referral for former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci’s prosecution by the Department of Justice.
According to the Kentucky Republican, Fauci lied to Congress, which he said was a felony. (snip) “So, everything he’s been telling us from the very beginning has been a lie,” he added. “We’ve documented that it’s a lie, and it’s a felony to lie to Congress. And so, I’ve referred him not once but now twice to the Attorney General of the United States for prosecution."
Hunter Biden's lawyers have responded to allegations that they conspired to lie to a court clerk in the First Son's criminal case in Delaware by saying the incident was simply an 'unfortunate misunderstanding.'
Delaware Judge Maryellen Noreika had ordered the First Son's attorneys to explain themselves by 9pm Tuesday or be sanctioned. (snip) It is claimed that someone from Hunter's attorney Chris Clark's former law firm later called the Delaware clerk – pretending to be from the office of Smith's attorney, Theodore Kittila – asking them to remove the original filing and, with it, 448 pages of Congressional testimony from the two IRS investigators who worked on the case.

Appeared to Have Medical Episode During
Press Conference 40 replies
Yikes, this is not good. During remarks at the Senate minority press conference, Mitch McConnell appears to have some form of cognitive health episode. The Senate minority leader completely freezes and is eventually led away from the podium. WATCH: (Video) Very sad. Another longer version of the video is below. (Video)
Former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has no regrets signing the now-infamous open letter heavily suggesting the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.
Panetta was among the dozens of former intelligence officials sounding the alarm on Russia's interference in the 2020 presidential election after the New York Post published its bombshell reporting about then-candidate Joe Biden's son, shedding light on shady foreign business dealings.
After several news organizations authenticated the laptop's contents, CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins asked the ex-Obama official Monday night whether he wished he never signed the letter "given what we know now."
When Joe Biden tapped Kamala Harris to be his running mate in 2020, it was perhaps the most easily predicted vice presidential choice in recent memory. Biden had made it clear that after emerging from the most diverse Democratic presidential candidate field in history, he would select a woman to join him on the ticket. The dynamics of the Democratic Party, which relies heavily on the votes of African American women to win elections, made it seem likely that Biden would select a running mate from this demographic group, especially as the murder of George Floyd brought race issues to the top of the public agenda.

Washington—With heat waves spreading across the United States, President Joe Biden on Thursday announced new steps to protect workers — including a hazard alert notifying employers and employees about ways to stay protected from extreme heat — as well as measures to improve weather forecasts and make drinking water more accessible.
The actions come as nearly 40% of the U.S. population faces heat advisories, according to the National Weather Service. High temperatures have already scorched the Southwest this month, and more heat is expected in the Midwest and the Northeast in the coming days. Washington won’t be spared, and the heat index in the capital could reach 110 degrees Fahrenheit
President Joe Biden’s dog, Commander, reportedly bit or attacked Secret Service agents as many as 10 times between the months of October 2022 and January 2023.
One incident involving the dog reportedly required a hospital visit for the Secret Service agent, according to records from the Department of Homeland Security that were released following a FOIA request by the conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch. Per the Associated Press:
On Nov. 3, 2022, a Secret Service official emailed colleagues that Commander had bitten a uniformed officer twice — on the upper right arm and thigh.
Hunter Biden arrived at court today in Delaware to agree to a sweetheart deal by the Biden Department of Justice on his years of criminal drug use, trafficking prostitutes, and multi-million dollar pay-for-play and bribery schemes with foreign officials from China, Ukraine, Romania, etc.
Hunter was only charged with two misdemeanors related to tax fraud and he will avoid prison time on the gun charge.
According to the DOJ’s sweetheart deal, Hunter Biden would receive immunity from future charges.
This is unprecedented.
The judge was not having it!
NBC News has been slammed online for a report about black people needing 'safe spaces' to enjoy outdoor activities.
NBC BLK reporter Char Adams described in a recently-revived June essay several black-led outdoor groups working to 'provide safe spaces for black people to enjoy outdoor activities and dispel myths that the outdoors doesn't belong to us.'
The report focused heavily on creating racially segregated 'safe spaces' so that black people can avoid 'harassment' and 'trauma' from white people who might fly 'Trump flags' at campsites.
The tragic death of the Obamas' private chef Tafari Campbell has left family and friends reeling in shock and struggling to understand how he came into trouble on a seemingly calm body of water.
Campbell, 45, was a competent swimmer who drowned on Sunday night while paddle boarding on the pond next to the Obamas' $12million home. The couple were not in the house at the time but were elsewhere on the island, their office confirmed today.
Police do not suspect foul play, but many questions surrounding the accident remain unanswered.
The race is on to prevent the sinking of a cargo ship off the Dutch coast which is carrying almost 3,000 vehicles, including 350 Mercedes-Benz, as it burns out of control with an electric car believed to be behind the deadly fire. At least one crew member died and others were injured after fire ripped through the Fremantle Highway, a 18,500-ton car-carrying vessel. Rescue helicopters and boats evacuated 23 crew members from the Panamanian-registered ship. Officials have said there are 'many' wounded. Some suffered broken bones, burns and breathing problems and were taken to hospitals in the northern Netherlands
President Joe Biden’s relationship with the truth is, at best, tenuous. This last week has been another eye-opener.
With endless reports on Hunter Biden’s business dealings, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday said, “I’ve been asked this question a million times. The answer is not going to change. The answer remains the same: The President was never in business with his son. I just don’t have anything else to add.”Well, that’s a far cry from what Biden said in 2019. “I’ve never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,”
The US Women's soccer team gave another uninspiring performance of their national anthem before their World Cup game against Holland on Wednesday.
Only six players held their hands to their chest when The Star-Spangled Banner was playing and not all of them were singing.
Those who did - such as Alex Morgan, Julie Ertz and Lindsey Horan - appeared to mumble the words rather than sing loudly along.By comparison, the Dutch team sang proudly to their anthem, Wilhelmus, with the players wrapping their arms around each other before the game began in Wellington, New Zealand.
The prosecutors gave Hunter Biden a sweetheart plea bargain to end the tax fraud and gun case against him. For offenses that most certainly would have landed you or me in jail for years, Hunter got . . .
. . . [drum roll] . . .
. . . nothing. Nada. Zero jail time. He didn’t even have to pay all of his unpaid taxes because the prosecution dallied so long that the statute of limitations expired.
And the deal apparently immunized him against unrelated charges. He would walk, a new man.
Well, not entirely.
