Can you even fathom the level of apoplexy that would have occurred if the executive branch under President Trump had dared to tell media how they must report on the impeachment process? [READ LETTER HERE] The fact that the U.S. government would be issuing guidelines on how journalists must report on the Joe Biden impeachment inquiry is yet another example of how the Democrats in power control the media.Image/memo) [Read Full Memo Here]
(Via CNN) – The White House sent a letter to top US news executives on Wednesday, urging them to intensify their scrutiny of House Republicans after Speaker Kevin McCarthy launched an impeachment inquiry into President
There is mounting evidence that Joe Biden was involved in his family’s influence peddling schemes, including while he served as Vice President. However, Democrats and their corporate media allies continue to ignore this overwhelming evidence as they seek to distract the American people from the Biden family’s corruption. Below are over 20 examples of Joe Biden’s involvement.
1) In July 2023, former Biden business associate Devon Archer described how Joe Biden was “The Brand” and was used to send “signals” of power, access, and influence to enrich the Biden family from foreign sources.
President Joe Biden made his first comments on his impeachment, telling a group of Democratic donors that Republicans 'want to impeach me because they want to shut down the government.'
Biden, speaking at a fundraising reception in McLean, Virginia, specifically mentioned conservative Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and her interest in impeaching him since the day Republicans took control of the House of Representatives.
'Well, I tell you what, I don’t know quite why, but they just knew they wanted to impeach me.
Ukraine has struck Russian naval targets and port infrastructure in the Crimean city of Sevastopol, in what appeared to be the biggest attack of the war on the home of the Russian navy’s Black Sea fleet.
A Ukrainian intelligence official said a large vessel and a submarine struck in the attack were so badly damaged as to be likely beyond repair.
The pre-dawn strike highlighted Kyiv’s growing missile capabilities as Russia continues to bombard Ukraine from afar with long-range missiles and assault drones.
“We confirm a large landing vessel and submarine were hit. We do not comment on the means [used] for the strike,”

Greg Abbott, GOP replies
A sweeping bill has been signed into law by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) in the wake of the horrific Uvalde shooting, posting an armed security officer in every school in the state. (Video) The massive leap forward in school safety also mandates that mental health training for certain district employees be provided.
Texas House Bill 3 was signed by Abbott on June 14 and went into effect on September 1. Republicans were determined to ensure another slaughter like the one at Robb Elementary School, which occurred in May 2022, never happens again. Nineteen children and two teachers perished that day
President Donald Trump called Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT)’s announcement that he was not running for re-election “fantastic news for America.”
“FANTASTIC NEWS FOR AMERICA, THE GREAT STATE OF UTAH, & FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY,” he posted on Truth Social on Wednesday. “MITT ROMNEY, SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS PIERRE DELECTO, WILL NOT BE SEEKING A SECOND TERM IN THE U.S. SENATE, WHERE HE DID NOT SERVE WITH DISTINCTION,” he added, referring to a secret account run by Romney.
Trump added, “A BIG PRIMARY FIGHT AGAINST HIM
The approved Republican, ala a true DeceptiCON and man of lightly held stances, Mitt Romney, has announced he will not seek reelection in 2024.
During a video presentation announcing his decision, the conniving conman used the opportunity to disparage President Trump, and proclaim himself too old to run for reelection. “It’s time for a new generation of leaders to step forward,” the Utah Senator said. WATCH: (video)The announcement is not really a surprise as Romney was likely to face a serious primary challenge, and given his track record unlikely to win.
Hunter Biden on Wednesday filed a federal lawsuit against former Trump aide Garrett Ziegler for accessing his ‘laptop from hell.’
The lawsuit was filed in the Central District of California just one day after Speaker McCarthy announced an impeachment inquiry of Joe Biden.
The lawsuit accuses Ziegler of violating California and federal computer privacy laws after he posted content from Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop to the website of his nonprofit, Marco Polo.
Hunter Biden claimed in his lawsuit that the “data appears to have been manipulated both before and after Ziegler obtained it,” according to Politico.
A federal judge in Texas on Wednesday again ruled that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program is illegal, but kept it intact for now for hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants who arrived in the U.S. as children. After the Biden administration moved last year to finalize a rule to codify the Obama-era DACA policy into a federal regulation, a group of Republican-led states challenged the effort and asked Texas-based U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen to shut down the program in its entirety over two years. As expected, Hanen on Wednesday ruled the Biden administration’s effort unlawful, but refrained from terminating the program and maintained the status quo
An attorney in Venice, California, filed a federal lawsuit on Saturday to bar former President Donald Trump from California’s 2024 presidential primary election, arguing that he is disqualified due to his alleged role in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, according to a report. (snip) Yagman, according to the Times, was disbarred and served 29 months in federal prison after being convicted in 2007 for tax evasion, bankruptcy fraud, and money laundering, but his law license was later reinstated.
A federal judge in New Mexico issued an order Wednesday blocking Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham's recent suspension of certain gun rights in Albuquerque and its surrounding county.
U.S. District Judge David Urias heard arguments Wednesday afternoon before issuing his ruling granting a temporary restraining order. Lujan Grisham’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Democratic governor’s directive sparked at least a half-dozen lawsuits. Opponents have argued that the governor's 30-day ban on the right to carry open or concealed firearms in public in Albuquerque and Bernalillo County was in violation of Second Amendment.
Twitter/X owner Elon Musk, embroiled in an ongoing war of words with the far-left Anti-Defamation League (ADL), which has pushed for censorship of conservatives on all platforms, has said the organization was “instrumental” in getting Donald Trump blacklisted from Twitter.
Speaking to the All-In Podcast, Musk said that the ADL characterized his decision to allow the former President back on to Twitter/X as an example of hate speech.(Photos) “The ADL was instrumental in getting Donald Trump deplatformed. And then when we restored the account, they made it super clear that they regarded simply restoring his account… that constituted hate speech,”
WASHINGTON — A top FBI agent involved in the Hunter Biden investigation couldn’t recall or refused to answer several questions related to IRS whistleblower claims that the probe into the first son was impeded by the Justice Department.
A transcript of FBI Special Agent Thomas Sobocinski’s closed-door testimony before the House Judiciary Committee last week, reviewed by The Post, reveals that the Justice Department detailed what Sobocinski could and couldn’t talk about with lawmakers a day before his Sept. 7 interview.
“Specifically, the Department has authorized [Sobocinski] to discuss U.S. Attorney [David] Weiss’ authority, as well as the October 7th, 2022, meeting, subject to some constraints around the ongoing investigation issue,”
The lifeblood of our American Republic is free and fair elections, and right now we’re hemorrhaging profusely due to illegal elections by far-left fascists, but we can stop the bleeding of our rights and freedoms by restoring legal integrity into state and federal elections. The validity of elections depends on the legal vote counts; sounds simple enough, right? To get a legal vote count, election officials need to count the legal version of a voter’s vote. The legal version of the vote is what it is…it is the “vote of record.” The vote of record in elections will always be the historical document kept on file
Caroline notes that:
New Mexico’s Democratic attorney general notified the governor, a fellow Democrat, on Tuesday that he will not defend her in litigation challenging her public health order temporarily banning firearms in certain counties and imposing other gun restrictions. (Snip)What, I must ask, was the plan here? Was there one? Since Lujan Grisham made her statement, she’s been denounced by the sheriff of the county to which it was supposed to apply, by her own attorney general, and by figures such as David Hogg and Ted Lieu, who, in normal circumstances, serve as strenuous advocates of stricter gun-control. Could it really be that the governor just .
Joe Biden disparaged Barack Obama in a 2010 email claiming that the then-President stole his speech.
Biden, who was at the time Obama's vice president, said that the President had 'no grace' after his son Hunter Biden claimed he plagiarized a pro-union speech at Laborfest in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The September 7, 2010 email was part of the troves on Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop – and this tidbit was first reported by Fox News Digital.
A relatively routine Senate Judiciary Committee hearing turned R-rated Tuesday — when Sen. John Kennedy read from a sexually graphic children’s book to drive home growing calls from parents to have age-appropriate literature in schools and libraries. The 71-year-old Republican from Louisiana recited sections from LGBTQ young adult books, including “All Boys Aren’t Blue” and “Gender Queer,” and grilled witnesses who have pushed state legislation and initiatives to block parents from having a say in what their child can access.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) investigation and prosecution of CEFC China Energy Co. boss and Biden family associate Patrick Ho displayed “irregularities,” including concealing known connections between the Chinese Communist Party-linked entity and the Bidens, and communication between Hunter Biden and the FBI agents involved in Ho’s case, according to a memo by the Heritage Foundation Oversight Project.
Ho, infamously referred to as “the f****** spy chief of China” by Hunter Biden, was arrested in November, 2017, and convicted in December, 2018, in the Southern District of New York and sentenced to 3 years in prison for violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and money laundering.

Oliver Anthony — the singer and songwriter of the hit “Rich Men North of Richmond”– apologized to fans for a show being canceled after he was booked to appear in Knoxville, Tennessee, at the end of the month.
Anthony was angry that the venue, the nightclub Cotton Eyed Joe, was charging $99 for tickets, plus another $199 for a meet-and-greet pass, according to the Knoxville News Sentinel.
“I had to pull off on the side of the road and make this video. My adrenaline’s pumping. I’m p*ssed off right now,” the singer said in a video posted to Instagram on Monday.
“Don’t buy Cotton Eyed Joe tickets for $99 a piece
Seoul, South Korea—North Korea’s Kim Jong Un vowed “full and unconditional support” for Russia’s Vladimir Putin on Wednesday as the two leaders isolated by the West held a summit that the U.S. warned could lead to a deal to supply ammunition for Moscow’s war in Ukraine.
The meeting, which lasted over four hours at Russia’s spaceport in the Far East, underscores how the two countries’ interests are aligning: Putin is believed to be seeking one of the few things impoverished North Korea has in abundance -– stockpiles of aging ammunition and rockets for Soviet-era weapons.
Such a request would mark a role reversal from the 1950-53 Korean War,
Biden administration officials have blamed Mayor Eric Adams for New York's out-of-control migrant crisis as tensions heat up between the Democrat factions.
Department of Homeland Security employees have blasted the mayor's office for having 'no exit strategy' for the 10,000 refugees the city takes in each month.
Their comments are the latest example of the president's inner circle passing the humanitarian issue like a hot potato to local officials who in turn shunt responsibility back to the White House.
Fetterman’s bizarre reaction to Biden

impeachment inquiry makes him look more
buffoonish than ever replies
Stroke-addled Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman (D) had no trouble mustering sarcasm when asked about the opening of an impeachment inquiry on the president.
“Ooo…”(Video) The freshman congressman was stopped Tuesday as he traveled with his assistant, Luke Borwegen, en route to his office in the Russell Building not long after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) had announced the investigative process aimed at President Joe Biden. While the aide looked sincerely invested in moving on, Fetterman was jocular regarding the announcement.

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) will not seek a second term next year, he announced on Wednesday.
Romney, 76, said in an interview that his decision to not run again was heavily influenced by his age and his prediction that his second term would be less effective than his first. “It’s very difficult for the House to operate, from what I can tell,” Romney said. “And perhaps more importantly, we’re probably going to have either Trump or Biden as our next president. And Biden is unable to lead on important matters and Trump is unwilling to lead on important matters.”
Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah announced Wednesday he will not run for reelection to a second term in the Senate in 2024. "I spent my last 25 years in public service of one kind or another," Romney said in a video posted on social media. "At the end of another term, I'd be in my mid-80s. Frankly, it's time for a new generation of leaders." Romney, 76, was the Republican nominee for president in 2012 and won election to the Senate in 2018. "While I'm not running for reelection, I'm not retiring from the fight," he said. "I'll be your United States senator until January of 2025."

An affirmative action academic whose research on systemic racism was widely used to fuel animus against white people has been fired from Florida State University for falsifying data. Eric Stewart was fired as a criminology professor at Florida State University last month because of the “extreme negligence” found in his studies. His work had been cited by other research in an astounding 8,500 occasions, according to Google Scholar.
Multiple conservative critics condemned a recent James Bond novel for vilifying former President Trump and other conservative politicians in a story about a dastardly international plot against King Charles III. (snip) “Bond was struck by something. It was a long while since he’d been at any kind of function that was almost exclusively full of men. It felt strange. There was not even a pretense at diversity here,” the book wrote, later noting Aethelstan “hadn’t been the least bit concerned about ensuring that half of the people he’d hired to carry out his coup should be women, non-White, or disabled.”
This is the moment escaped prisoner Danelo Cavalcante was captured by police after he was subdued by K-9s, ending a two week-long manhunt that struck terror into a Pennsylvania community.
The 34-year-old was serving a life sentence for the murder of his ex-girlfriend at the Chester County Prison, 30 miles west of Philadelphia, when he escaped on August 31 by crab-walking up a wall.
About 25 officers were able to surprise him as they surrounded him on Wednesday morning, but Cavalcante tried to escape again by crawling through the tall grass with the rifle he stole on Monday.
With COVID back, censorship is back, and now it's taken a particularly dangerous form, not just on social media, but on leading academic exchanges.
The huge Social Sciences Research Network (SSRN), run by Netherlands-based publishing house Elsevier, is not a site most people know about, but it is a behemoth in academia, extremely important to professors for getting their work out there and advancing within the academic community.
That's where censorship on COVID is happening, which could have far-reaching consequences for public policy and the free exchange of ideas.
SSRN's plain, bare-bones front page on its site describes itself this way:

Lying on Her Resumé replies
The face of the BBC’s disinformation fact-checking unit allegedly fabricated details on her resumé when she applied for a different media role in 2018, sparking another round of criticism for the millennial presenter.
In what has been described as an “unsurprising” turn of events, legacy media darling and the lead figure for the UK publicly-funded broadcaster’s ‘Verify’ disinformation division, Marianna Spring is once again facing allegations of lying. According to a report last week from The New European, Spring allegedly made up details on her CV when she applied for the position of Russian correspondent for the American news site Coda Story.
Twenty-two years ago, terrorists hijacked four American commercial airplanes, according to the Department of Defense. Two were flown into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, another into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, and the last, United Airlines Flight 93, was headed for Washington, D.C. Courageous passengers thwarted that plan, and the plane crashed into a field in Pennsylvania, sparing countless lives.
In a shocking development, a previously unseen video of the September 11 attacks has surfaced on YouTube, capturing a rare angle of the second plane striking the South Tower of the World Trade Center.
Hunter Biden is reportedly an informal adviser to President Joe Biden amid an impeachment inquiry into the president.
Hunter and Joe Biden frequently speak on the phone and “occasionally” talk politics, according to the New York Times, which described Hunter Biden as the president’s “informal adviser” who has even shaped the latter’s speeches.
“People who know both men say their bond is singular in its intensity,” the Times reported of father and son. “But even allies of President Biden, who prides himself on his political and human instincts, say he has at times been too deferential to his younger son, appearing unwilling to tell him no, despite Hunter’s problems and
The reputation of “politician” precedes any civil servant, so right off the bat, I hold a less-than-flattering bias against those entering government (to put it mildly); it’s a “guilty until proven innocent” prejudice, but I will say, it’s evenly applied.
Then last week, Michelle Wu, Boston’s hardcore leftist mayor, opened her big mouth and showed (again) just how right on the money one can be when you operate under the assumption that ineptitude and uselessness are shared traits amongst elected officials.
On September 7th, Wu declared a “heat emergency” saying temperatures were expected to reach into the… ready for this? The nineties.
Critics of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's decision to allow an inquiry into impeaching President Joe Biden are right about one thing: The Republicans who are pushing for it want to get even with the Democrats. The GOP base is still fuming over the Democrat's impeachment of former President Donald Trump on bogus charges related to his demand that Ukraine investigate Biden family corruption in that country. A better case could be made for the second impeachment about the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, yet most Republican voters now believe the Democrats' determination to brand everyone who raised questions about the 2020 results as an "insurrectionist" has stripped the issue of legitimacy.
The decision by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to open an impeachment inquiry into President Biden is drawing predictable howls from Democrats and their media handmaidens.
Some faint-hearted Republican representatives also are whimpering, as if playing nice would help them keep their jobs. They should step away from the Kool-Aid. The truth is that if McCarthy (R-Calif.) had opted against an inquiry, he wouldn’t deserve to keep his job and the GOP wouldn’t deserve to hold the House majority.
The role of the opposition party is to oppose, not to surrender to the White House, especially a corrupt one. And it’s long past time for Republicans to play hardball because it’s the only
The former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Dr. Anthony Fauci, confirmed during an interview on ABC’s “This Week” that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines can cause myocarditis, particularly in young men.
This comes after months of dismissing or downplaying concerns about potential side effects of COVID-19 vaccines.
During the interview, Fauci was asked to discuss the recent surge in COVID-19 cases and the ongoing vaccine drive.
Addressing the safety of the COVID-19 vaccines, Fauci said, “Again, we have experience with this type of vaccine in billions of people. It’s a safe vaccine.
Inflation accelerated for a second straight month in August, reversing previous declines as consumers continued to grapple with the rising cost of everyday goods.
The Labor Department said Wednesday that the consumer price index, a broad measure of the price for everyday goods including gasoline, groceries and rents, rose 0.6% in August from the previous month, in line with estimates. It marked the steepest monthly increase this year, underscoring the challenge in taming high inflation.
Prices climbed 3.7% from the same time last year, faster than both the 3.2% reading in July and the 3.6% estimate from Refinitiv economists.
The White House intends to urge the top executives of several mainstream news outlets to “ramp up” their scrutiny of House Republicans one day after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy opened an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, according to a draft letter obtained by CNN.
“It’s time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies,” Ian Sams, a spokesman for the White House Counsel’s Office, wrote in the draft letter, which is expected to be sent on Wednesday.
The news organizations that will receive the letter include
Convicted killer and escaped convict Danelo Cavalcante was nabbed by authorities Wednesday after evading search teams for two weeks by breaking into suburban homes for food and hiding out in the Pennsylvania woods.
Cavalcante – who escaped from Chester County Prison on Aug. 31 – was arrested without incident when K9s sniffed him out lying underneath leaves and wood on top of a stolen rifle, sources told CBS Philadelphia and CNN. The fugitive reportedly complied with the investigators’ orders when they stumbled upon him, CNN added.
He was then escorted into a van by a SWAT team shortly before 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, as the search entered its 14th day.

Looks like the Democrats and the media are already trying to spin evidence that's been coming out in the Hunter Biden probe. I wrote earlier about how Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) dropped some reality on a reporter trying to say that Americans didn't see the "evidence" against Joe Biden.
There's some new information being reported concerning the transcript out of testimony of FBI Agent Thomas Sobocinski regarding the probe into Hunter Biden. That information is not good for the Democrats and the Bidens.

Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio claimed federal prosecutors tried to “coerce” him into implicating former President Donald Trump in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
Last week, U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly sentenced Tarrio to a record-high 22 years in prison despite not being in Washington, DC, on January 6.
“I don’t know what instructions I would give somebody at that point … I’m not speaking. I have no function. So there was no communication,” Tarrio said in a phone interview with the Washington Post.
Tarrio revealed that federal prosecutors tried to “coerce” him into implicating Trump during a phone interview from the D.C. jail.
Burning Man, the so-called music festival, ended in a deserved "climate change crisis" disaster on Labor Day.
The holiday that honors hardworking individuals and signals the unofficial end of summer, has come and gone, so now students, ranging from kindergarten to college, are back in school. And in another few weeks, most of those post-college students who took out massive loans to ostensibly complete their education will have to resume payments on said loans plus interest, which had been temporarily suspended because of the COVID crisis, as a majority of mean congresspeople, defying that nice befuddled president, Joe Biden (D), so decreed.
Once upon a time, it was so much fun being a sanctuary city. It made you popular with immigration activists and the self-declared "enlightened" class. Suddenly, sanctuary cities are about dealing with migrants who accepted your invitation. As someone said on the TV, it's like inviting a bunch of people for dinner and then realizing that you can't pay the bill. The problem is really serious in the so-called "blue cities" as Naomi Lin recently wrote:

Editor’s Note: This editorial originally ran on September 26, 2019. Now that the House has announced plans to begin an impeachment inquiry into Biden, we reprint it here just to show how far ahead of the curve we were and how diligently the mainstream press has buried this story for the past four years.
Until the transcript of President Donald Trump’s call with Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelensky emerged on Wednesday, Democrats were in a mad fury with accusations that Trump had bribed a foreign government to investigate the business dealings of former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter.
Palestinian officials... have assured the US that they will not oppose Saudi-Israeli efforts at normalization, in the hope of receiving security, financial and political incentives from the Biden administration.
The Palestinian list of demands for not opposing a Saudi-Israeli deal includes, among other things: Resuming Saudi financial support to the Palestinian Authority, which slowed from 2016 and stopped completely three years ago, to the tune of around $200 million per year, and transferring parts of the West Bank currently under full Israeli control to the governance of the Palestinian Authority. The talk is about land in the West Bank's Area C,
Both President Biden and former President Trump have taken their lumps recently. In Biden’s case, it’s his failing mental acuity, age and allegations of corruption in office. For Trump, it’s an unprecedented slew of criminal indictments. Disaster? Hardly. Both candidates still hold big leads over likely challengers, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
In Trump’s case, he has widened his lead. In the latest online national poll, taken from among 509 Republican voters from Aug. 30-Sept. 1, we again asked: “If the Republican presidential primary were held today, whom would you support for the nomination?”
The Biden administration has been blasted over plans to send out a letter to many of the major news organizations across the country demanding they probe the 'lies' of the House GOP's impeachment inquiry.

According to a reporter embedded in the Energy Department’s EV caravan, the entourage had trouble charging the vehicles.

Things Have Not Been This Bad Since Biden Was Obama’s Vice President
The last time Americans saw a drop in household income as large as we did last year, Barack Obama was president.
The Census Bureau on Tuesday released its calculations for the change in real median household income for last year. By its calculations, the median income of U.S. households fell in 2022 by 2.3 percent, the worst decline since 2010. History may not necessarily repeat or even rhyme, but it certainly rings a bell on occasion. The last time household income suffered a decline as large as it did in the second year of Biden’s presidency
Now that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is finally launching an impeachment inquiry of Joe Biden, we will get to see most of the media pull a complete 180 degree turn on impeaching presidents.
On ABC News, it has already started.
In their coverage of the issue, they repeatedly refer to House Republicans as ‘far right’ and ‘hard right.’ They also say that there is ‘no evidence’ or ‘no hard evidence’ of any wrongdoing by Biden.
This is the media gearing up to defend their party and it’s so obvious.

Cornyn and Thune, two of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) top deputies, made the comments to the Hill in an article published ahead of McCarthy’s announcement Tuesday morning that House Republicans are opening a formal impeachment inquiry into Biden.
Economists have practically sounded the all-clear on a looming recession, but plenty of signs are still flashing red.
Clearly, economists were wrong earlier this year when they forecast an economic contraction that has yet to manifest. Could they be wrong now?
To be sure, economic growth, the labor market and consumer spending have proven unexpectedly resilient in the face of rising interest rates and elevated inflation. But there are still plenty of signs a recession might still be on its way. 1. An “uncertain outlook” from leading indicators
