White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre was peppered with questions about President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, defiantly refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena Wednesday for a closed door deposition with the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees. She refused to give any substantive or relevant answers. "They [President Biden and First Lady Jill Biden] are proud of him. They are proud of their son," Jean-Pierre said. (X Video)

Assistant U.S. Attorney Lesley Wolf, who has been accused of obstructing the Hunter Biden probe, has left her post at the Justice Department, it was reported Thursday as she sat down for an interview with the House Judiciary Committee.
Wolf, who was interviewed behind closed doors Thursday for a transcribed interview, appeared under a subpoena, a day after the full House voted on a party line basis to formalize an impeachment inquiry into the president.
That came on a day when Hunter Biden delivered a blistering statement outside the Capitol but declined to appear for a closed interview with lawmakers, after saying he would appear in a public forum.
Democratic Latino politicians are demanding President Joe Biden protect the interests of foreign migrants, regardless of the huge civic and pocketbook damage to unhyphenated Americans, Latino-Americans, and legal immigrants.
“We are here to protect immigration as it is,” Rep. Nanette Barragan (D-CA), told an audience of legislators, activists, and media at a December 13 rally beside the Capitol.The rally called on President Joe Biden to deny any significant concessions to GOP negotiators in the debate over his demand for $14 billion in emergency funds to accelerate and hide his migration flood, and funds for wartime aid for Israel and Ukraine.
Barragan said:
Let me put it a little differently.
Black smoke was seen coming from a ConEd plant in Brooklyn as power outages were seen across New York City.
The outages happened just after midnight on Friday and footage captured shows plumes spreading from the facility.
A momentary power cut across New York City then followed with lights seen flickering for a few seconds. Most electricity is back up and running. The New York City Fire Department was quickly at the scene and sirens were seen flashing from the ConEd plant on John Street in Dumbo. While New York City Police Department officers were stood outside the gates of the facility.
He's as mad as hell, and he's not going to take it anymore!
No, we're not talking about 'Network's' Howard Beale here, but ousted Fox News broadcaster Tucker Carlson, who is taking aim at the 'corporate media' days after launching his own streaming platform for exclusive content.
'They're doomed,' Carlson told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview yesterday.And on some level, they know they're doomed, which is why they're hysterical. The era of dominance by a few big media companies, the era of total control over all information by you know, nine people, that's done,' Tucker said.
And to make sure the message is clear he organized mobile billboard trucks with his image
The once-lofty dreams for GOP primary debates have ultimately ended with the party’s retreat into the arms of corporate media companies that the electorate views as inherently hostile, and no decision maker, from the campaigns themselves to the Republican National Committee (RNC), wants to take credit.
The Daily Caller talked to the RNC, the DeSantis campaign, the Ramaswamy campaign and CNN, and reached out to the Haley campaign. No one can explain how RNC Temporary Committee on Presidential Debates David Bossie’s 2022 promise to center debates around independent and conservative media ended up with the RNC in full retreat and candidates flocking to CNN and Disney-owned ABC on the eve of
Republicans on the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration, led by Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL), have introduced legislation that would give states the power to verify the American citizenship of applicants registering to vote via mail.
This week, Britt and fellow Republicans introduced the “Citizen Ballot Protection Act” which would give states the ability to more accurately verify that only American citizens are being approved for voter registrations.Britt said the legislation is necessary as several blue states, counties, and cities pass ordinances opening voting rights to foreign nationals — at least for municipal elections.
“Voting in our country is a sacred right
As the 2024 election rounds the corner, President Joe Biden's border crisis is at the forefront of voter's minds— which has exceeded a staggering 13 million illegal aliens now in the United States. According to a new report, the growing number of "gotaways" has reached a record high as migrants illegally enter the U.S. through the southern border.
Steven Camarota, the research director for the Center for Immigration Studies, said that there are now nearly 50 million foreign-born citizens in the U.S.— driven solely based on the Biden Administration's open border policies. This number is far more than the government previously expected.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre did not deny Thursday, when asked, that President Joe Biden had lied about his ties to his son Hunter’s business dealings — but said he had not lied about Republicans wasting time on an impeachment inquiry.
Last week, President Biden repeated a lie that he had never interacted with Hunter Biden’s business associates. He had also lied on the campaign trail in 2019, when he claimed that he had never discussed his family’s business interests with them.Jean-Pierre said Thursday there was “zero evidence” that the president had done anything wrong, even though evidence has emerged that Hunter Biden traded on access to his father
Wednesday's evening shows all led with the House of Representatives authorizing an impeachment inquiry into President Biden on a party-line vote. ABC, CBS, and NBC all echoed the preposterous "no evidence" claims of the White House. ABC spun for Biden the hardest, while NBC came closest to a middle-ground approach.
On ABC's World News Tonight, David Muir began the program: "Tonight, breaking news involving President Biden. The House voting moments ago to formally open the impeachment inquiry despite no proof of high crimes or misdemeanors.
Chicago's Democrat leaders have been accused of hiding from voters in a city buckling under a migrant crisis after they blocked a vote on ditching its sanctuary city status.
Mayor Brandon Johnson ordered his lieutenants to quash a bid to put the controversial 'Welcoming City Ordinance' to a referendum on Chicago's March primary ballot.
It came after the mayor's floor leader was forced to resign for physically blocking opponents trying to access a previous vote on the issue last month.
Newly-released records from the Secret Service show the chaotic early moments as agents scrambled to try and rescue Barack Obama's personal chef in Martha's Vineyard, struggling to get a motor boat into the murky water with just 15 minutes of daylight.
Agents tried but failed to get two motorboats on the property working, at least one of them belonging to the Secret Service, before they successfully started a third boat belonging to the groundskeeper.
But it was already too late. Tafari Campbell, 45, never surfaced the night of July 23, and his body was pulled from Edgartown Great Pond the following day.
Put aside whatever you might think of Vivek Ramaswamy as a potential, 2024 Republican presidential nominee, or the relevance of any political programming the folks at CNN might choose to broadcast to their paltry audience. Sometimes, truth finds strange bedfellows--and an even stranger location in which to live.Such was the case on Wednesday night, when the tech entrepreneur and GOP presidential candidate appeared in a town hall program on CNN. One question in particular has people abuzz--and it had to do with January 6, 2021. (X Video) CNN moderator Abby Phillip began:

First lady Jill Biden was blasted Wednesday night after posting a video to X showing dancers tapping around the holiday-decorated White House, whose theme this year is "Magic, Wonder and Joy." (Snip) "A bit of magic, wonder, and joy brought to you by the talented tappers of Dorrance Dance, performing their playful interpretation of The Nutcracker Suite. Enjoy!" the first lady's post read.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu was all smiles as she was joined by other city and state leaders at a 'no whites' holiday reception Wednesday evening.
'I'm proud to host many many of these across all different types of collations,' Wu said outside of the controversial event.
The segregated holiday party for 'electeds of color' has been held for years in Boston, but garnered scrutiny this year after an email invitation was sent to all 13 members of the city council, only for them to be rescinded from the seven white councilors 15 minutes later.
Is the right about to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory regarding Bud Light? That's the story after several prominent right-wing figures publicly came out in support of the embattled beer brand recently.
For those unacquainted with the controversy, Bud Light got itself into hot water by joining forces with transgender activist (and all-around mentally deranged person) Dylan Mulvaney. That resulted in a commemorative can being sent to Mulvaney, who then used it to do product placement in a couple of videos posted on social media.
The backlash was swift, and for the first time in history, conservatives were to put some teeth behind the phrase "go woke, go broke."
Some Democrats wish the worst for former President Donald Trump, even though his presidency successfully created prosperity for the nation’s citizens.
Before the Chinese coronavirus came to the U.S., the Trump administration built the world’s most prosperous economy, according to White House archives:
America gained 7 million new jobs – more than three times government experts’ projections.
Incomes rose in every single metro area in the United States for the first time in nearly three decades.
Unemployment for women hit its lowest rate in nearly 70 years.
The DOW closed above 20,000 for the first time in 2017 and topped 30,000 in 2020.
Jobless claims hit a nearly 50-year low.
Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy delivered his farewell address on the House floor, commending Democrats for their embodiment of America’s diversity while censuring his own party. Once holding the Speaker’s gavel, McCarthy saw his tenure end abruptly in October after a historic ousting due to his failed leadership.
Earlier this month, McCarthy announced that he is retiring from Congress at the end of the year.
“I have decided to depart the House at the end of this year to serve America in new ways. I know my work is only getting started,” McCarthy wrote in a Wall Street Journal.
Before we get to this direct rejection of the Biden/Blinken ‘credit’ argument, let’s go over the background that led to it. Under pressure from progressive anti-Semites in his party, Joe Biden growled yesterday about Israel’s supposedly “indiscriminate” bombing campaign in Gaza. His comments at a campaign event yesterday sent shock waves through the US media: “Israel’s security can rest on the United States,” Biden stated during a campaign event Tuesday, as he touted his government’s strong support of Israel. …
“But they’re starting to lose that support by the indiscriminate bombing that takes place” in Gaza, Biden said, in a statement that implied Israel was needlessly targeting civilians.
Joe Biden held Israel closer than any American president ever has in the horrific days after the Hamas attacks on October 7.
But more than two months later, following days upon end of Israeli strikes in Gaza that have killed thousands of civilians, unprecedented tensions are widening between the White House and the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Biden accused Israel, for example, of carrying out “indiscriminate” bombing in an off-camera political event this week. He used exceedingly blunt language, which typically causes pushback from Israel’s leaders, who insist they try to spare civilians but accuse Hamas of using innocent Palestinians as cover.
On Monday, Minnesota Rep. Samakab Hussein, D-St. Paul, organized a press conference at Minnesota’s State Capitol to call for “immediate, unrestricted humanitarian aid” to Somalia. (snip) More Somalis live in Minnesota than any other place in America. In total, over 86,000 Somalis live in the state.
A fire at the New York City courthouse where Donald Trump's civil fraud case is being heard has left 17 people injured.
Three floors of the state's Supreme Court in lower Manhattan had to be evacuated on Wednesday afternoon after a person set papers on fire. The person, who was taken into custody, then used an extinguisher to put out the fire.

Few tests at Harvard University, I’d presume, are what anyone would deem as easy. But when it came to the easiest one of all, Harvard flunked in spectacular fashion.
The only reason Claudine Gay isn't being called “the former president of Harvard” today is because the university decided to not fire her, despite overwhelming pressure to do so after she waffled about the right of anti-Israel protesters to call for the genocide of Jews on campus. And she did so under oath on Capitol Hill, no less.
"At Harvard, does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard's rules of bullying and harassment?" Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) asked
Here’s one case where no one can deny that corporate DEI was a scam. A former head of DEI programs for Facebook has pleaded guilty to swindling the company out of $4 million, not including whatever money they were spending on her actual salary.
Barbara Furlow-Smiles, who served as lead strategist and global head of employee resource groups and diversity engagement at Facebook, used the stolen funds to live an extravagant lifestyle that spanned from California to Georgia, prosecutors said.
From approximately January 2017 to September 2021, Furlow-Smiles led Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs at Facebook and was responsible for developing and executing DEI initiatives,
Vice President Kamala Harris has been telling colleagues in the administration that she wants the White House to show more concern publicly for the humanitarian damage in Gaza, where Israel is locked in a bloody and prolonged battle with Hamas, according to three people familiar with Harris’ comments.
President Joe Biden is among the officials Harris has urged to show more sensitivity to Palestinian civilians, these people said.
In internal conversations about the war in Gaza, Harris has argued that it is time to start making “day after” plans for how to handle the wreckage of the war once the fighting ends, one senior administration official said.
