Oh, So We Might Have Chinese Drones Buzzing Overhead

The drones above American airspace that’s set social media ablaze continue, but it’s not a conservative media fascination. We have Democrats now witnessing this phenomenon. Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) caught some spooky images. Journalist Michael Shellenberger obtained an audio recording of a Biden White House conference call with mayors, who were infuriated at the administration’s lackadaisical response. It’s disinterested, to say the least, with one mayor claiming a drone the size of a car hovered over their house. Now, we might have Chinese spy drones humming overhead

We’ve been told for four years that inflation will soon stabilize and disappear thanks to Joe Biden’s awesome stewardship of the economy, and yet…
“Wholesale prices for chicken eggs soared by nearly 55% last month, and wholesale food prices rose by 3.1% (their highest monthly increase in two years),” reports far-left CNN.
Ahh, and because a Democrat is in office, we are then immediately told…
Economists say not to panic. The “egg-flation” and sudden price hikes in some major food categories are reflections of isolated incidents rather than something systemic and indicative of a reacceleration of inflation.
Economists always tell us not to worry when a Democrat is president.

for Constitutional Convention After Trump Victory 5 replies
California and Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) are planning to repeal the 2023 call for a national constitutional convention, given Donald Trump’s recent victory and the possibility of Republicans proposing their own new amendments.
As Breitbart News reported last June, Newsom called for a constitutional convention to propose amendments to limit the Second Amendment, such as setting a minimum age of 21 for gun possession, and universal background checks.
But there were political obstacles, as Breitbart News noted:
[S]ince a two-thirds vote of Congress is generally required to launch the process of amending the Constitution, it is unclear how Newsom intends to begin if, as he says, Congress is responsible for inaction.
President Joe Biden appears to be struggling with the prospect of retiring from public life, according to a New York Times report published Tuesday.
After Democrats ousted him as their presidential candidate in July, Biden, 82, who has been a public official since 1973 (51 years), is not enjoying the prospects of sunsetting his over half a century long career at the center of American politics, the NYT’s Peter Baker and Zolan Kanno-Youngs reported.
Biden reportedly told allies after he dropped out of the race that he was bored, moody, and angry. He’s apparently angry because many Democrats opposed his pardon of his son.

Bill to Block, Stymie Investigations into Congress 11 replies
Congressional leadership slipped a provision into the stopgap spending bill that would bar or stymie investigations into Congress.
Tucked within the stopgap spending bill is a provision that has enflamed controversy amongst many conservatives on and off Capitol Hill.
The provision, titled “Treatment of electronic services provided for House offices,” sounds vague but could could stop or limit investigations into Congress.
Part of the section states:
Upon a motion made promptly by a House office or provider for a House office, a court of competent jurisdiction shall quash or modify any legal process
An illegal alien is on the run in Florida after having been accused of filming himself raping a child in Martin County.
Jesus Tamanis-Peralta, a 37-year-old illegal alien from Mexico, is wanted by the Martin County Sheriff’s Office on charges of sexual battery of a child. He has an active warrant for his arrest.
According to police, Tamanis-Peralta fled Martin County when he discovered he was wanted by the sheriff’s office and is currently running from town to town. Tamanis-Peralta was last seen on December 12.
The allegations against Tamanis-Peralta are gruesome. According to police, he raped an 8-year-old, filmed the abuse, and recently started distributing the footage.

George Stephanopoulos may be OUT at ABC News after CEO Bob Iger decided to pay out a $15 million defamation settlement, plus $1 million to cover Trump’s attorneys fees.
Trump’s defamation case against ABC News was related to statements made by “This Week” host George Stephanopoulos.
Trump sued ABC News earlier this year after Stephanopoulos claimed Trump was “found liable for rape” by a Manhattan jury in the E. Jean Carroll case.
In 2019, E. Jean Carroll alleged Donald Trump raped her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the 1990s.
Trump has denied the allegations and called E. Jean Carroll a “whack job”

The incoming House Oversight Committee Democrat Ranking Member has promised to carry out “trench warfare” against Donald Trump’s political agenda.
Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-VA), who narrowly defeated Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) to serve as the head Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, said in a statement that he would go all out to try and quash Republican reforms.
“We know what the Republican playbook will be,” Connolly wrote in a statement following his victory. “We’ve seen it before. They have demonstrated that they are willing to traffic in debunked conspiracy theories and enable the worst abuses of the Trump administration.”
“This will be trench warfare.

Joe Biden, and It Gets More Shameless

I know the saying is "better late than never." Still, I'm not so sure that should apply to Democrats who are finally admitting the obvious about Joe Biden: He clearly could not have served another four years as President of the United States.
You see, the thing is when you wait until not only after he dropped out of the presidential race, but after the election is over as well, the timing of that admission seems just a little bit suspect. [Tweet]

Trump Assassin - but Why Are the Feds
Stonewalling Them? 6 replies
Since his thwarted assassination attempt against President-elect Donald Trump on September 15, in West Palm Beach, Florida, Ryan Routh has been held in federal custody, where he faces charges of attempted assassination and assaulting a federal officer in addition to firearms charges. His trial is currently set to begin in February, though Routh has requested a continuance of the matter, and we await Judge Aileen Cannon's ruling on that request.
That the matter — involving the attempted assassination of a former and future president — is being handled via the federal system makes sense. However, it does not remain solely within the feds' purview.

Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO) said he was "proud" to block a proposal from Democrats to protect federal workers from potentially getting reclassified as political appointees under the incoming administration.
The measure was introduced by Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) as a way to prevent such reclassification without congressional approval. He asked for unanimous consent to pass the Saving the Civil Service Act, warning about “attempts in recent years to erode the independence of the federal civil service,” a reference to efforts President-elect Trump made in his first term.

George Stephanopoulos was repeatedly told by his executive producer not to “use the word rape” before going on the air to discuss Donald Trump but the ABC News anchor ignored the warning — a decision that cost the network $16 million, The Post has learned.
Parent company Disney’s capitulation last week in the defamation lawsuit by Trump against ABC News and Stephanopoulos shocked media and legal experts, but the damning revelation could help explain why Mouse House CEO Bob Iger signed off on the settlement so quickly.
The “This Week” host uttered that Trump was “liable for rape” while discussing the civil lawsuit won by journalist E. Jean Carroll during an interview

During an interview with Boston 25 on Tuesday, First Lady Jill Biden defended President Joe Biden pardoning their son, Hunter, by stating that the President “talked to a lot of legal experts,” about the prospects of pardoning Hunter and “circumstances changed.”
Boston 25 Host and Investigative Reporter Kerry Kavanaugh said that she asked Biden if there are things she wished resonated more with the American public and then played a clip of Biden saying, “I think some of the accomplishments of the White House, some of the things that Joe did, opening our schools, ending the pandemic, the infrastructure, just so many things that he accomplished.

On the eve of former President Donald Trump's return to power, a new report is turning the story of the 2021 Capitol incursion on its head.
For four years, a Democratic-run "select" committee on Jan. 6, anti-Trump Republicans, and the establishment media have blamed Trump for the violence in Washington on Jan. 6, 2021, but the report released Tuesday accused Trump's acting defense secretary at the time, Christopher Miller, of defying Trump's specific orders.
It's the very first finding of the report, and it paints a scathing picture of Nancy Pelosi's "select" committee -- and former Rep. Liz Cheney's role in the whole affair.
Automakers are furious after California moved forward with plan to ban the sale of all gas-powered cars by 2035.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on Wednesday granted two requests from California to enforce strict standards for vehicle emissions after it found opponents were not able to meet the legal burden to how it was inconsistent with the federal Clean Air Act.
'California has longstanding authority to request waivers from EPA to protect its residents from dangerous air pollution coming from mobile sources like cars and trucks,' EPA Administrator Michael Regan said in a statement.

ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos is said to be 'apoplectic' and 'humiliated' following the network's decision to pay $16 million to settle a defamation lawsuit between ABC and Donald Trump.
The settlement, which includes $15 million towards a presidential foundation and $1 million for Trump's legal fees, has sparked a firestorm within the Disney-owned news organization.
Stephanopoulos, a former aide to Bill Clinton in the 1990s, was particularly incensed at being compelled to issue a public apology, according to the New York Post.
Insiders explained how the veteran anchor remains 'defiant' amid the fallout.
Cleanup in Terminal 3! A group of travelers and one employee threw punches, grabbed hair and whacked each other with “Wet Floor” signs in a wild, caught-on-camera brawl reminiscent of a WWE match inside Chicago O’Hare International Airport last week. Insane video shared on social media of the Dec. 12 melee shows three men — including an employee in a blue shirt — seemingly teaming up against one man in a white T-shirt inside American Airlines Terminal Three.
The NYPD’s highest-paid employee — who shoveled in more than $400,000 last year — filed for retirement this week and then was suspended amid an internal affairs probe into her astronomical overtime, The Post has learned.
Lt. Quathisha Epps will retire just shy of 20 years with the department, sources said — an early exit that will impact her pension and cost her a $12,000-a-year supplement for cops who reach the two-decade mark.
Leaving money on the table is seemingly uncharacteristic for Epps, who raised eyebrows by pulling in roughly $204,000 in overtime last year for her administrative job in NYPD Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey’s office, payroll records show.
House Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) favorability is declining, sinking even lower than Democrat President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, a new poll shows.
Polling from The Economist/YouGov shows Johnson with a 30 percent favorability rating, well below Biden’s 40 percent rating and Harris’s 44 percent. Thirty-six percent of poll respondents say they have an unfavorable view of Johnson, and 34 percent who “don’t know.” The results show a slight decline in public opinion from last month, when another YouGov survey showed Johnson with 33 percent approval and 34 percent disapproval.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi arrived back at her California home on Wednesday after suffering a fall in “very high” heels and undergoing hip replacement surgery during her trip to Europe.
The California congresswoman, 84, was spotted apparently talking into a pink cellphone in a black vehicle outside her San Francisco home in the first pictures of her in the US exclusively obtained by The Post. (Photos) Pelosi was visiting a World War II battlefield site in Luxembourg on Friday when she fell down marble steps while wearing heels — and posed for a picture immediately after.
