Eric Swalwell Gets Hilariously Roasted After Being Fact Checked By Twitter

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif) fell into another trap of mockery after making false accusations about former President Trump.

Fact-checkers quickly pointed out the noticeable mistake Swalwell made when trying to bash Trump and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif).

The Democrat claimed that Trump had been “convicted of sexual assault” and that McCarthy was “all in with his sexually abusive pal.”

However, Trump was acquitted of sexual assault. Instead, a jury found him liable but not found guilty.

Thanks to Twitter’s official fact-checking rules, Swalwell’s tweet was flagged by the social media platform explaining that the Democrat’s accusation was “factually inaccurate. Conviction is the authority of criminal courts only. Civil litigation only deals with liability. Trump was found liable. No determination of guilt was made by the jury.”

Tucker Carlson Announces New Show, Accuses Fox of Fraud

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Wire. Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson announced Tuesday afternoon that he is launching a new show that will be hosted on Twitter.

Carlson’s announcement comes after reports surfaced in recent days that he had spoken with Twitter CEO Elon Musk about working together.

Carlson made the announcement in a video posted on Twitter where he mentioned that there were not many free speech platforms left in the world.

“The last big one remaining in the world, the only one is Twitter, where we are now,” Carlson said. “Twitter has long served as the place where our national conversation incubates and develops. Twitter is not a partisan site; everybody’s allowed here. And we think that’s a good thing.”

“And yet, for the most part, the news that you see analyzed on Twitter comes from media organizations that are themselves thinly disguised propaganda outlets,” he continued. “You see it on cable news, you talk about it on Twitter. The result may feel like a debate, but actually the gatekeepers are still in charge. We think that’s a bad system. We know exactly how it works, and we’re sick of it.” (Read more from “Tucker Carlson Announces New Show” HERE)

Tucker Carlson Accuses Fox of Fraud, Contract Breach

By Axios. Tucker Carlson, two weeks after being ousted by Fox News, accused the network Tuesday of fraud and breach of contract — and made a host of document demands that could precede legal action.

Why it matters: The aggressive letter from his lawyers to Fox positions Carlson to argue that the noncompete provision in his contract is no longer valid — freeing him to launch his own competing show or media enterprise. . .

The intrigue: The Twitter move would seem to technically violate Carlson’s contract with Fox, but his lawyers’ letter effectively holds that Fox breached the contract first.

Sources told Axios that Carlson’s lawyers sent their letter before he took to Twitter to announce his new show. (Read more from “Tucker Carlson Accuses Fox of Fraud, Contract Breach” HERE)

U.S. May Freeze Bank Withdrawals as Currency Fear Rises, Expert Warns

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An expert in economics is warning that the Biden administration may be looking at ways to lock down your checking account – literally ban withdrawals from the banking system. . .

Now the next step could be your bank account, according to macro economics guru Hugh Hendry. . .

The report explained, “Hendry says a further decline in the M2 money supply, which in part tracks money in liquid checking accounts, could convince the U.S. government to step in and prevent citizens from taking their capital out of the banking system.”

“Sometimes it’s kind of relevant to panic. I would recommend you panic… You’ve seen the biggest waterfall decline in M2 right now. M2 is deposits, not loans. That’s the deposits fleeing the system and going into money market funds,” he explained. “That could reach a crescendo where the Treasury and the Fed may have to come in and actually restrict your right as a U.S. citizen to pull money out of the U.S. banking sector.” (Read more from “U.S. May Freeze Bank Withdrawals as Currency Fear Rises, Expert Warns” HERE)

Viewers Noticed Something Strange About John Kerry at King Charles’ Coronation

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Amid the fanfare of King Charles’ coronation over the weekend, it was easy to miss President Biden’s climate czar John Kerry — who flew to the U.K. without regard for the emissions his travel necessitated — sitting in attendance at the official ceremony.

There were some, however, who did pick Kerry out in the crowd and noted something interesting about his appearance. Dressed in a suit, the former Secretary of State was weighed down with service medals from the United States military…the medals he previously was publicly proud to discard as a show of his allegedly strongly held convictions.

You see, back in 1971, a much-younger John Kerry told WRC-TV on November 6, 1971, that he “gave back” the medals he earned with his service in Vietnam. He, along with other anti-war veterans who discarded their honors, Kerry said at the time, “decided to give them back to their country.”

When asked whether he’d returned a Bronze Star, a Silver Star, and three Purple Hearts he received for his combat service, Kerry replied that he had and “above that, [I] gave back the others.”

Kerry was a leader among anti-war veterans and led them in a protest in Washington, D.C. According to news reports in 1971, “many veterans were seen throwing their medals and ribbons over the fence in front of the U.S. Capitol,” and a handful of outlets “reported that Kerry was among these veterans,” according to ABC News.

Tom Hanks Slams Campaign to Modify Classic Books to Please Cancel Culture: ‘Let Me Decide What I Am Offended By’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hollywood superstar Tom Hanks explained in a new interview that he opposes cancel culture and modern efforts to police content for what some people may deem offensive.

In an interview with BBC, the film legend said he doesn’t want the overlords of PC culture to tell him what he should be offended by.

“I’m of the opinion that we’re all grown-ups here. And we understand the time and the place and when these things were written. And it’s not very hard at all to say: that doesn’t quite fly right now, does it?'” Hanks said. “Let’s have faith in our own sensibilities here, instead of having somebody decide what we may or may not be offended by.

“Let me decide what I am offended by and what I’m not offended by,” he declared. “I would be against reading any book from any era that says ‘abridged due to modern sensitivities.'” (Read more from “Tom Hanks Slams Campaign to Modify Classic Books to Please Cancel Culture: ‘Let Me Decide What I Am Offended By’” HERE)

Feds Reprosecuting Man Granted Clemency by Trump, Congress Demands Answers

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A decision by the Department of Justice to retry a case against a Florida nursing home owner whose sentence was commuted by President Trump has attracted new congressional scrutiny.

The Justice Department seeks to retry Philip Esformes in a Medicare fraud case that led to his 2019 conviction and a 20-year sentence.

Mr. Trump pardoned Mr. Esformes, a prominent philanthropist, in 2020. But Justice Department officials, in an unusual move, are seeking to retry him on six criminal [charges] that left the jury deadlocked. Those charges are related to health care fraud conspiracy.

Rep. Andy Biggs said the move is unconstitutional and wants Attorney General Merrick Garland to appear before a House committee to explain his prosecutors’ actions. Lawyers for Mr. Esformes have accused the DOJ of acting out of anger against Mr. Trump. (Read more from “Feds Reprosecuting Man Granted Clemency by Trump, Congress Demands Answers” HERE)

Biden Admits Migrant Surge Is ‘Going to Be Chaotic’ When Title 42 Ends

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden conceded on Tuesday that the looming migrant surge at the southern border will be “chaotic for a while” after the Title 42 border policy ends later this week.

Biden, 80, made the stunning admission that he’s not sure the US is prepared for the expected flood of migrants during a press conference that took place after he met with congressional leaders about the debt ceiling.

“I spent close to an hour with the Mexican president today. We’re doing all we can. The answer is it remains to be seen,” Biden said when asked if the US is ready for the influx of migrants arriving from Mexico.

“We’ve gotten overwhelming cooperation from Mexico. We also are in the process of setting up offices in Colombia and other places where you could – or someone seeking asylum can go first. So, it remains to be seen. It’s going to be chaotic for a while,” the president admitted.

The pandemic-era Title 42, which allowed law enforcement authorities to swiftly deport migrants apprehended crossing the border, comes to an end on Thursday along with the Covid-19 pandemic public health emergency.

‘Big Plans for Next School Year’: After School Satan Club Looks to Expand to High Schools

/0 Comments/in , /by

An after-school club connected to the Satanic Temple is looking to expand to high schools, and the club’s campaign director said it has “big plans” for next school year.

The clubs, which are associated with the Satanic Temple, started in 2020 and caught the attention of parents seeking an alternative to religious clubs, according to June Everett, the campaign director for the club. Everett claimed the club is considering teaching some of the Satanic Temple’s seven core tenets in the clubs, as well as expanding its clubs to high schools, according to the Hill.

“We have a lot of big plans for next school year,” Everett said.

The problem the club faces is that unlike in primary schools, in which clubs are largely run by adults, students at high schools must be more actively engaged in the club to keep it running.

However, Everett stated that a new partnership between the club and the nonprofit group Secular Student Alliance could help expand the club’s availability to other schools, including high schools. The Secular Student Alliance states on its website that it is the only national organization dedicated to atheist, humanist, and other nontheist students.

Hunter Biden Laptop Letter Signer Says Active CIA Employee Pushed Him to Sign It

/0 Comments/in , /by

One of the signers of the Hunter Biden laptop letter says he and his wife only signed on to the baseless October 2020 claims of Russian involvement after a CIA employee who was active with the agency asked him to sign the document.

David Cariens, a former intelligence analyst for the CIA, told congressional investigators earlier this year that he and his wife Janice Cariens, a former operations support officer for the CIA, signed the letter with other former intelligence officials after a member of the CIA’s Prepublication Classification Review Board, or PCRB, called him and asked him to. The letter aimed at discrediting New York Post stories about the contents of Biden’s laptop came at a critical point before Joe Biden debated Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election.

White House Refuses to Reveal How They Pick Journalists to Enter Biden Pressers

/0 Comments/in , /by

The White House refused to reveal what process they use to credential journalists into presidential events, dodging the Daily Caller’s question repeatedly on Tuesday.

The White House team usually restricts who gets access to President Joe Biden’s public events by requiring reporters — who usually get access to White House press grounds — to fill out a credential form. Reporters have pressed the administration for answers on how they pick the journalists that get close to the president, but the White House has never publicly addressed their credentialing system.

The South Court Auditorium, one of the smaller venues where Biden gives remarks, has partially been a cause of headaches for reporters from right-leaning outlets who have been denied access. The Daily Caller and other conservative outlets in the White House briefing room have repeatedly been banned without explanation, despite there being dozens of seats available.

The Daily Caller pressed the White House to be transparent on whether they have a process on who gets inside.

A White House official refused to answer the question but told the Caller that reporters are denied access due to space restrictions. (Read more from “White House Refuses to Reveal How They Pick Journalists to Enter Biden Pressers” HERE)
