Hunter Biden Tries to Lower Child Support Payments, Claiming Financial Hardship

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden reportedly has requested to have child support payments for the daughter he conceived out-of-wedlock with former stripper Lunden Roberts lowered, citing financial hardships.

According to recently filed court documents, Hunter Biden claimed that “financial circumstances” have made him unable to meet the initially agreed upon child support payments for his now 4-year-old daughter, Navy Joan, who he has not yet met. Per the New York Post:

Hunter cited “a substantial material change” in his “financial circumstances, including but not limited to his income” for the reason behind his request.

It wasn’t immediately clear what the change in Hunter’s income was.

Hunter’s motion was filed in Independence County, which is where Roberts — a former stripper — lives with their daughter, Navy Joan.

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. Most voters believe President Joe Biden has divided the country despite promising to unite it, a survey from Convention of States Action/Trafalgar Group found.

The survey, obtained first by Breitbart News, found 58.7 percent of voters express the belief that Biden has, indeed, divided the country during his time in office. Just one in five say he has unified the country, and another one in five remain unsure.

While a plurality of Democrats, 43.6 percent, believe Biden has unified the country during his time in office, that sentiment is not held by most Republicans or independents. An overwhelming majority of Republicans, 92.8 percent, believe Biden has divided the country, and 64.1 percent of independents agree.

The survey was taken September 2-5, 2022, among 1,000 likely 2022 election voters. (Read more from “Poll: Majority of Voters Say Biden Dividin’ USA” HERE)

Most Voters Say Biden Was Consulted, Profited From Son’s Overseas Business Dealings

By Washington Times. The majority of voters think President Biden was consulted about and profited from Hunter Biden’s overseas business dealings, according to a poll showing that suspicions about influence peddling and corruption are not subsiding as the president’s term approaches the halfway mark.

A whopping 62% of likely voters told Rasmussen Reports that Mr. Biden was likely involved in Hunter Biden’s far-flung business dealings, including at least one deal involving a company in mainland China.

One-third of voters said they don’t think it’s likely that Mr. Biden was consulted about his son’s deals.

“The abandoned laptop that revealed Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealing remains an important story, according to voters, many of whom think it could have changed the 2020 election,” the pollsters said.

Indeed, questions aren’t going away about foreign business deals brokered by Hunter Biden and other family members while Mr. Biden was vice president in the Obama administration. (Read more from “Most Voters Say Biden Was Consulted, Profited From Son’s Overseas Business Dealings” HERE)

Shocking Documents: FBI Pressured People to Give Up Their Gun Rights

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has pressured Americans to “voluntarily” give up their Second Amendment rights, which is potentially illegal, according to newly disclosed documents.

FBI officials had Americans fill out a form that said they want the FBI to make it illegal for them to purchase or own guns forever because of a mental health condition.

A national gun rights group, Gun Owners of America (GOA), is demanding the FBI remove the records from the background check database by Oct. 8 and that Congress enforce the removals.

“We’ve learned the FBI had no business disarming these individuals. They did not pose a threat to society. The FBI actions were wholly unlawful,” Aidan Johnston, GOA’s director of federal affairs, told The Epoch Times.

Fifteen people filled out the forms, according to documents GOA acquired through a Freedom of Information (FOIA) lawsuit. (Read more from “Shocking Documents: FBI Pressured People to Give Up Their Gun Rights” HERE)

Teen Trafficking Victim Ordered to Pay $150K in Restitution to Family of Rapist She Killed

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A teenage sex-trafficking victim who stabbed her accused rapist to death was ordered to pay $150,000 restitution to the man’s family and sentenced to five years of closely-supervised probation by a judge in Iowa on Tuesday.

Pieper Lewis was a 15-year-old runaway when she stabbed her 37-year-old abuser, Zachary Brooks, more than 30 times in a Des Moines apartment in June 2020.

Lewis, now 17, was originally charged with first-degree murder for the fatally stabbing. Last year, she pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and willful injury. Each charge is punishable to up to 10 years in prison.

Polk County District Judge David M. Porter deferred Lewis’ prison sentence on Tuesday— meaning if she violates her probation she could be sent to prison to serve 20 years.

The judge said Lewis was ordered to pay the estate of her rapist because the court was “presented with no other option,” adding that the restitution is mandatory under Iowa state law. (Read more from “Teen Trafficking Victim Ordered to Pay $150K in Restitution to Family of Rapist She Killed” HERE)

Biden’s DOJ Doesn’t Want to Disclose ‘Classified’ Mar-a-Lago Documents—Except Through Selective Leaks to Leftist Media

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hiding behind the horror of 9/11, the Biden administration demands that a federal judge and the country trust its targeting of a top political opponent—all while leaking details of classified documents to a pliant press.

This development and six others flow from recent court filings in former President Donald Trump’s efforts to obtain a special master’s oversight of the FBI’s seizure of thousands of documents and personal effects from his Mar-a-Lago home. The government doesn’t want to allow an independent review of the documents it’s seized. Trump’s legal team does. . .

The argument and analysis presented in the government’s motion reveals another reality: The Biden administration intends to pursue a criminal case against Trump, likely before the 2022 midterms. After the first wave of shock over the raid of the former president’s home passed, the conversation quickly turned to the end goal. Would the government be content with retrieving the documents, or was the government intent on indicting Trump? . . .

In seeking to expedite its criminal investigation and in opposing the special master, the Biden administration relies heavily on its claims that the documents marked classified put the country at grave risk. But as Trump’s lawyers note in their briefing, material once classified does not always remain classified. This concerns not merely the documents Trump declassified, but that other documents, such as the former president’s travel itinerary, lose any top-secret nature with time.

The Biden administration clearly wants Americans to believe the documents Trump had at Mar-a-Lago represent serious threats to our national security, as evidenced not merely by the court filings but by the many leaks to the press. To protect that narrative, the DOJ remains adamant that the special master not have access to the documents it has segregated as marked classified.

Kenneth Starr, Whose Probe of Clintons Exposed Monica Lewinsky Affair, Dead at 76

/0 Comments/in , /by

Ken Starr, a former federal judge whose investigation of Bill and Hillary Clinton’s Whitewater scandal uncovered the 42nd president’s affair with Monica Lewinsky and led to the second impeachment of a president in American history, died Tuesday at a Houston hospital.

Starr, a former US solicitor general during the George H.W. Bush administration, was 76. He died of complications from surgery, a spokeswoman said. . .

In 1994, a special three-judge panel of the DC Circuit tapped Starr to investigate Whitewater, a complex probe of real estate investments by the Clintons that expanded to take in the president’s affair with Lewinsky.

Starr graphically documented Bill Clinton’s illicit encounters with the then-White House intern in what became dubbed “The Starr Report,” in the summer of 1998.

“According to Ms. Lewinsky, she performed oral sex on the president on nine occasions. On all nine of those occasions, the president fondled and kissed her bare breasts,” his report said. “She called him ‘Handsome’; on occasion, he called her ‘Sweetie,’ ‘Baby,’ or sometimes ‘Dear.’” (Read more from “Kenneth Starr, Whose Probe of Clintons Exposed Monica Lewinsky Affair, Dead at 76” HERE)

Timeline of a Leak: Supreme Court Justices Think Roe Mystery Could Be Solved Soon

/0 Comments/in , /by

It’s been just over five months since a Supreme Court draft opinion signaling the overturning of Roe v. Wade leaked to the media — with no signs as to where it originated from.

The May leak of the draft opinion to Politico, which signaled the high court was poised to vote along conservative-liberal ideological lines to overturn Roe, became official when the June 24 opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization was released with hardly any changes from the draft.

In the months since the leak, justices have experienced heightened security concerns at their personal homes from pro-abortion rights protesters, coupled with a very real threat made against Justice Brett Kavanaugh in June, when a 26-year-old man came to his Maryland home armed with the intent to kill the justice, according to statements he made in a 911 call.

Justice Elena Kagan provided the latest indicator on Sept. 12 that an update over the investigation into the unprecedented leak could come before the end of this month, according to her comments during a planned discussion at Temple Emanu-El’s Streicker Center with Judge Alison J. Nathan, a member of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.

Kagan said she suspected none of her colleagues were privy to the efforts of the leak investigation “except for the chief justice maybe, about what the investigation has turned up if anything,” referring to Chief Justice John Roberts calling on the Supreme Court marshal to look into the origins of the leaked draft opinion in a statement on May 3.

Twitter Was Notified That Chinese Spy Was on Company’s Payroll, Whistleblower Testifies

/0 Comments/in , /by

The former head of security at Twitter was told earlier this year by the U.S. government that there was at least one agent of China’s top intelligence agency, the Ministry of State Security (MSS), working as an employee at the company.

This was one of the revelations made by Peiter “Mudge” Zatko, a whistleblower who served as Twitter’s head of security for about 14 months before being fired earlier this year, during testimony before a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Sept. 13.

Ranking Member Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) asked Zatko: “In your disclosure, you mentioned that the FBI notified Twitter that one of their employees was suspected of being a Chinese foreign asset. Were you and others at Twitter at all surprised by that?”

Zatko replied that he was notified of this information about a week before he was dismissed.

“The corporate security physical security team had been contacted and told that there was at least one agent of the MSS, which is one of China’s intelligence services, on the payroll inside Twitter,” he said.

Second Trial Between Alex Jones and Sandy Hook Parents Under Way

/0 Comments/in , /by

A jury in Connecticut will hear arguments today as it determines how much money radio host Alex Jones should pay relatives of victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.

Last year, in a rare move, Judge Barbara Bellis found Jones liable by default in a defamation lawsuit brought by parents of children killed in the Connecticut shooting over Jones’ statements that the shooting was a hoax. The judge stated Jones had failed to turn over documents that might have shown how he and his company profited from spreading his statements about the school shooting.

The current trial is being held in Waterbury, Connecticut, not far from Newtown, where 26 Sandy Hook Elementary School students and teachers were shot to death in 2012. The trial is expected to last “about a month and feature testimony from both Jones and the families,” reports NPR.

This is the second such trial for Jones, who was ordered by a Texas jury last month to pay over $45 million to Sandy Hook parents. (Read more from “Second Trial Between Alex Jones and Sandy Hook Parents Under Way” HERE)

Senator Calls Out Credit Card Companies for Tracking Gun-Related Purchases

/0 Comments/in , /by

On Tuesday, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) called out three major credit card companies over their decision to separate gun-related purchases from other transactions made with their payment cards.

To recap, the Associated Press reported this week that Visa said on Saturday that it will start separately categorizing sales made on their payment methods at gun shops. The report described this as a “major win” for those in favor of gun control, claiming it will “help better track suspicious surges of gun sales that could be a prelude to a mass shooting.” Mastercard and American Express said they would categorize these types of sales as well.

Townhall site Bearing Arms noted that this came after New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) urged credit card companies to “do their part” to stop gun violence.

Bearing Arms also noted that the CEO of Amalgamated Bank claims this move by credit card companies “answers the call of millions.”
