U.S. Treasury Evidence Refutes Biden’s Debate Claim About Son’s Deals

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Evidence presented recently by two Senate committees contradicts Joe Biden’s insistence during the presidential debate last week that the claim his son Hunter received $3.5 million from a Russian oligarch has been discredited. . .

Just the News, however, cited evidence compiled by the Senate Finance and Homeland Security committees from the FBI and the Treasury Department in a report released Sept. 23.

The Treasury Department turned over to the Senate investigators Suspicious Activity Reports that linked Hunter Biden to Elena Baturina, a billionaire and the wife of the former mayor of Moscow.

On Feb. 14, 2014, Baturina wired $3.5 million to a Rosemont Seneca Thornton LLC bank account for a ‘Consultancy Agreement DD12.02.2014.”

Rosemont Seneca Thornton is an investment firm co-founded by Hunter Biden that was incorporated on May 28, 2013, in Wilmington, Delaware. The younger Biden started the company with partner Devon Archer, a former Senate chief of staff to John Kerry.

New WHO Estimate Puts Coronavirus Death Rate at Only 0.13%

/0 Comments/in , /by

Lost in the reporting of the World Health Organization’s new estimate that about 760 million people – more than 20 times the confirmed cases – have been infected by the coronavirus worldwide is the impact on the estimated survival rate.

If, indeed, 760 million have been infected at some point during the outbreak and the number of confirmed deaths is about 1 million, the infection fatality rate is only 0.13%.

That’s a little more than one-tenth of 1%, which the WHO says is the rate for the seasonal flu.

The WHO’s estimate in March of a death rate of 3.4% sparked panic worldwide, fueling the catastrophic lockdowns.

A rate of 3.4% is more than 26 times higher than a rate of 0.13%. (Read more from “New WHO Estimate Puts Coronavirus Death Rate at Only 0.13%” HERE)

WATCH: CNN Reporter Complains About Trump Taking Mask Off; Trump Campaign Shows Her Taking Her Mask off Inside White House

/0 Comments/in , /by

CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins bemoaned President Donald Trump taking off his mask when he returned to the White House from Walter Reed Medical Center late on Monday only to have her past actions with masks called into question by the Trump campaign.

“Yeah and let us remind viewers now that the president is on steroids and a drug that fewer than 10 people outside of clinical trials have gotten inside the United States to deal with coronavirus,” Collins said. “He had a level of treatment and a level of care that most Americans would not get. That’s understandable, he is the president of the United States, obviously everyone expects that.”

“But what the president is portraying by taking his mask off when he gets back to the Truman balcony to give this grand return to the White House, is that everything is fine and, as he said, don’t let coronavirus control your life,” Collins continued. . .

The Trump campaign quickly hit back at Collins, highlighting a video clip from earlier this year where she immediately took her mask off inside the White House press briefing room — an enclosed indoor space where other people were present — after she apparently thought the cameras had been turned off following the end of a news conference.

Conspiracy Theories Fly on Left and Right Over Trump Contracting Coronavirus

By Washington Examiner. Conspiracy theories are swirling following President Trump’s announcement that he tested positive for the coronavirus.

Trump could be faking his coronavirus diagnosis in order to avoid participating in another debate against Joe Biden. Or maybe he was deliberately exposed to it by a malicious actor at Tuesday’s debate against the Democratic presidential nominee.

He’s faking it in order to distract from the election — or to garner sympathy for himself. Or maybe, this is part of a grand QAnon plan to save the president from the deep state. . .

With a high-stakes election on the line and Trump being pulled off the campaign trail due to contracting the coronavirus, neither the Left nor the Right had a shortage of suspicion of foul play when it came to Trump announcing a positive test result.

Former Republican congressional candidate-turned- Newsmax commentator DeAnna Lorraine floated the idea that a leftist deliberately infected Trump.

Pence Negative for COVID-19, Vice President’s Office Says

By Yahoo News. Following the announcement that President Trump and first lady Melania Trump tested positive for COVID-19, a spokesman for Vice President Mike Pence announced Friday that Pence and his wife, Karen, had tested negative.

“As has been routine for months, Vice President Pence is tested for COVID-19 every day,” wrote Devin O’Malley, Pence’s press secretary. “This morning, Vice President Pence and the Second Lady tested negative for COVID-19. Vice President Pence remains in good health and wishes the Trumps well in their recovery.”

Just before 1 a.m. ET Friday, Trump announced that both he and the first lady had tested positive for the virus, a few hours after Bloomberg reported that Trump’s close aide Hope Hicks had tested positive. Trump and his team had been traveling the country for the campaign, generally not wearing masks. At the first presidential debate, on Tuesday, held at the Cleveland Clinic, members of Trump’s delegation refused to wear masks in the audience, in violation of health regulations in Ohio.

Second-Ever Case of New ‘Alaskapox’ Virus Strain Recorded in U.S.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An Alaska woman was recently diagnosed with the second-ever known case of a novel strain of virus that’s potentially being carried by animals.

A bulletin published on Wednesday by state epidemiology experts detailed symptoms of a woman living in the Fairbanks area who sought medical care in August this year and tested positive for what has been dubbed by virologists as “Alaskapox.”

While there is much that remains unknown about this mysterious new virus and how it spreads, scientists say evidence suggests the public health impact is limited and there have been no signs of human-to-human transmission in the known cases. . .

Documenting the most recent diagnosis, the state bulletin said the woman, who was not named, had a grey lesion on her left upper arm that was followed by redness of the skin. She also reported suffering from shoulder pain, fatigue, and fever at night. (Read more from “Second-Ever Case of New ‘Alaskapox’ Virus Strain Recorded in U.S.” HERE)

WATCH: Devin Nunes Tears Into Adam Schiff at Intel Committee Hearing

/1 Comment/in , , /by

“Welcome to another hearing of the Trump impeachment committee,” Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) quipped during his opening statement at a House Intelligence Committee hearing on Friday.

Adam Schiff (D-CA) convened Friday’s meeting to question Joseph B. Maher, the Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Under Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis. According to the chairman, Maher has been “preventing a lawful Intelligence Community whistleblower—the former head of an Intelligence Community element—from providing classified testimony to the Committee by delaying security clearances for his attorneys.” That whistleblower leveled several allegations against the agency, including that they “suppressed intelligence reports about Russia’s election interference and efforts to modify intelligence assessments to match Trump’s rhetoric on white supremacy, Antifa, and terrorism threats at the border.” He alleged that the DHS told him to stop reporting on the Russian threat to the U.S. election because it “made President Trump look bad.” The White House and the DHS denied all allegations.

Nunes noted that the Democrats called the whistleblower in question a liar just a few weeks before he filed this complaint. But now, they take him as their word as their “star witness.”

The ranking member accused his Democratic colleagues of dragging the panel through another investigation hoping that they’ll find the “holy grail of scandals that finally gets rid of Trump without beating him in the election.” They are, Nunes said, “sick fantasies.”

The good news is that Trump won’t wither like Mitt Romney. He’ll fight back. His team is already on this—and they’ll deliver a nice counterpunch soon.

CIA Director Allegedly Banking on Trump Loss to Keep Russiagate Documents Hidden

/0 Comments/in , /by

Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director Gina Haspel is personally blocking the declassification and release of key Russiagate documents in the hopes that President Donald Trump will lose his re-election bid, multiple senior U.S. officials told The Federalist. The officials said Haspel, who served under former CIA Director John Brennan as the spy agency’s station chief in London in 2016 and 2017, is concerned that the declassification and release of documents detailing what the CIA was doing during the 2016 election and the 2017 transition could embarrass the CIA and potentially even implicate Haspel herself.

“Haspel and [FBI Director Christopher] Wray both want Trump to lose, because it’s the only chance they have of keeping their jobs,” one senior intelligence official told The Federalist. “They’re banking on Biden winning and keeping them where they are.” . . .

Officials also accused Haspel of repeatedly lying to the White House about the status of documents that are in the pipeline for declassification and release. These officials said that Haspel has consistently provided baseless excuses for her failure to produce certain documents, falsely claiming that she can’t physically locate documents, or that her agency doesn’t technically own them and therefore cannot release them.

“Haspel has repeatedly lied to the president about the status of documents to be declassified,” one intelligence community source said. “She will claim they don’t know where they are, or which agency technically owns them, and then we’ll find out she had them the entire time and just didn’t want them to see the light of day.” (Read more from “CIA Director Allegedly Banking on Trump Loss to Keep Russiagate Documents Hidden” HERE)
