House Judiciary GOPers Slammed Over ‘Bizarre’ Tweet Celebrating Depp Verdict

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee are coming under fire over a tweet that celebrated actor Johnny Depp’s win in his defamation lawsuit against ex-wife Amber Heard.

[T]he official House Judiciary GOP Twitter account celebrated Depp’s victory by posting a gif of the actor in one of his most famous roles — Captain Jack Sparrow from the “Pirates of the Caribbean” series.

The tweet immediately received backlash from both sides of the political divide, with many calling it “gross,” “weird” and “bizarre.”

Most of the criticism focused on why members of Congress were weighing in on a legal case that stemmed from a bitter divorce.

“Is there a single enterprise or institution that can stay in its lane?” asked author and Commentary magazine associate editor Noah Rothman on a Twitter thread. (Read more from “House Judiciary GOPers Slammed Over ‘Bizarre’ Tweet Celebrating Depp Verdict” HERE)

The ‘Most Secure Election Ever’ Talking Point Just Got Shredded

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By WND. . .The recent Georgia primary which passed a slew of laws to protect the integrity of its elections saw a massive turnout. The Democratic Party’s talking point was that these laws, which included voter ID, were racist and meant to suppress the vote. Not the case. In fact, support for voter ID laws is popular across the board. Dinesh D’Souza’s great film, 2000 Mules, demonstrates how funny games with mail-in voting could cause serious election integrity issues. Without a doubt, these tactics were used in 2020—and they could have impacted the election results. Now, a federal cybersecurity agency has declared that our voting systems are vulnerable to hacking (via Associated Press):

Electronic voting machines from a leading vendor used in at least 16 states have software vulnerabilities that leave them susceptible to hacking if unaddressed, the nation’s leading cybersecurity agency says in an advisory sent to state election officials.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency, or CISA, said there is no evidence the flaws in the Dominion Voting Systems’ equipment have been exploited to alter election results. The advisory is based on testing by a prominent computer scientist and expert witness in a long-running lawsuit that is unrelated to false allegations of a stolen election pushed by former President Donald Trump after his 2020 election loss.

The advisory, obtained by The Associated Press in advance of its expected Friday release, details nine vulnerabilities and suggests protective measures to prevent or detect their exploitation. Amid a swirl of misinformation and disinformation about elections, CISA seems to be trying to walk a line between not alarming the public and stressing the need for election officials to take action.

Mr. Pillow: Wyoming Voting Machines Are Fraudulent and if You Don’t Agree, You’re a Traitor

By Cowboy State Daily. . .Lindell, also known as the “My Pillow Guy,” attended former President Donald Trump’s “Save America Rally” in Casper on Saturday. The “My Pillow” CEO and founder worked the crowd at a tireless pace, working up a sweat as he stopped to take selfies and photos with hundreds of people over the course of the day.

In an interview with Cowboy State Daily, Lindell said people need to get behind him to “Help save our country, help save the American dream.”

The Minnesota businessman has been a vocal supporter of Trump’s claim the 2020 elections were rigged and stolen from him. Lindell said he has spent more than $30 million investigating 2020 election fraud and “has more information than anyone in the world.” . . .

Lindell has cast his net of election fraud allegations over all 50 states, including Wyoming.

Lindell said anyone who says Wyoming’s election results weren’t part of the problem, despite the fact the state had the largest margin of support for Trump in the country, is a traitor to America.

The Special Counsel Proved the FBI Belongs to the Swamp

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .[A]fter less than one full day of deliberations, a D.C. jury stacked with pro-Hillary Clinton jurors acquitted former Clinton campaign attorney Michael Sussmann, proving the FBI is not “ours” but the swamp’s.

Just more than two weeks ago, prosecutor Brittain Shaw began opening statements in United States v. Sussmann, by stating the obvious: “Some people have very strong feelings about politics and about Russia, and many people have strong feelings about Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.”

“But we are not here because these allegations involve either of them,” Shaw continued. “Nor are we here because the defendant’s client was the Clinton campaign.” Rather, “we are here because the FBI is our institution that should not be used as a political tool for anyone; not Republicans, not Democrats, not anyone.”

But after hearing overwhelming evidence that Sussmann lied when he told the then-FBI General Counsel James Baker he was providing data and whitepapers about a supposed secret communications channel between Trump and the Russian-based Alfa Bank on his own behalf, when in fact Sussmann was representing both the Clinton campaign and tech executive Rodney Joffe, the 12 D.C. residents found Sussmann not guilty.

It was not the verdict, however, that confirmed that the FBI belongs to career bureaucrats, high-powered D.C. elites who revolve in and out of the government as political appointees, and the families and friends of all the above. Rather, it was the speed with which the acquittal came, coupled with the in-court testimony and other evidence exposed by the special counsel throughout the prosecution that proved the FBI isn’t America’s anymore.

The CBO Confirms Bidenflation Is Real

/2 Comments/in , /by

The Congressional Budget Office has just confirmed that President Joe Biden is blameworthy for the record-high inflation that is punishing workers. Further, this nonpartisan source says that Biden’s preferred fix, raising taxes, will only make the economy worse.

The CBO’s annual economic outlook adds further force to the arguments against Biden made by other Democrats, such as former President Barack Obama’s National Economic Council director, Larry Summers, and Council of Economic Advisers Chairman Jason Furman. The CBO squarely blames Biden’s 2021 COVID stimulus bill for today’s high inflation, albeit for slightly different reasons.

Like Summers and Furman, the CBO noted that the stimulus checks sent to every family significantly boosted demand, causing inflationary pressure on its own. But there’s more. By paying workers not to work, Biden’s COVID stimulus artificially “slowed the recovery of labor force participation.” As noted by Texas Rep. Kevin Brady, the top Republican on the Ways and Means Committee, this lack of workers strained supply chains, thus providing a second source of upward pressure on prices.

The CBO predicts that this Biden-caused inflation will persist into next year, tempered only by the Federal Reserve’s willingness to raise interest rates, which will, in turn, cause the economy to slow or even contract. (Read more from “The CBO Confirms Bidenflation Is Real” HERE)

Biden Administration Cancels All Remaining Student Loan Debt for 560,000 Borrowers

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration is offering a new round of student loan debt relief for more than half a million borrowers who were students of Corinthian Colleges.

The action will see $5.8 billion in full loan discharges for 560,000 borrowers, marking the single largest loan discharge in the history of the Department of Education, and brings the total student debt relief extended by the administration to $25 billion.

Corinthian operated from 1995 to 2015. In 2013, then-California Attorney General Kamala Harris sued Corinthian before carrying out a full investigation, which found “comprehensive” wrongdoing carried out against students across the nation, including lying to prospective students about graduation and job placement rates.

Addiction, Infidelity, Shame: Hunter Biden’s Ex-Wife Talks About Marriage

/0 Comments/in , /by

Kathleen Buhle said she finally has “total control over my life” five years after her 24-year marriage with President Joe Biden’s son Hunter ended.

The ex-wife of the man, who is now at the center of an investigation surrounding his laptop, said her marriage was one rocked by addiction, infidelity, and shame, according to excerpts from her book If We Break published Wednesday by People. . .

“One Saturday morning when we had friends visiting, Hunter walked into the kitchen looking as if he hadn’t gone to sleep. I was making pancakes as I watched him pull a bottle of Jack Daniel’s out of the cabinet. ‘Hunter! What are you doing?’ I said. ‘It’s 10 a.m.!’ I don’t think he knew what time it was, and he still seemed drunk. He laughed and put the bottle back. We all stared,” she wrote.

Buhle, who said she was constantly reminded of not actually being a Biden, threw out Hunter after coming to terms with his loop of anger and admission to persistent cheating.

“I found a credit card charge for $10,000 at a hot tub store in Los Angeles,” Buhle wrote. “I found hundreds at liquor stores and strip clubs. The whole time, he told me he was healthy and sober — and I was crazy. I continually told him that I was the one person actually trying to get him sober. It became my own kind of addiction. I didn’t want to admit, to myself or anyone else, how unhealthy our relationship had become, so my struggle was just one more secret.” (Read more from “Addiction, Infidelity, Shame: Hunter Biden’s Ex-Wife Talks About Marriage” HERE)

Majority of Americans Believe Armed Educators Make Schools Safer

/0 Comments/in , /by

Most Americans believe that having armed teachers, properly trained, would make schools a safer place rather than the opposite.

A new poll conducted by The Trafalgar Group in partnership with Convention of States Action (COSA) shows that a majority of 2022 likely voters support having properly trained, armed teachers in schools. The poll was conducted in the aftermath of a mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, in which 21 victims, including 19 children, died.

Researchers surveyed 1,091 likely general election voters from May 25-29. The poll’s results have a margin of error of 2.9%. The results were provided exclusively to The Daily Wire.

“No shooting at a school is going to be stopped by gun control laws. They are going to be stopped by a variety of fairly simple on-site measures, including arming law-abiding citizens–in this case specifically teachers–and empowering them to protect our children, schools, and communities,” COSA President Mark Meckler said in a statement. “A majority of voters see this clearly, despite the relentless propaganda by people who want to confiscate the guns of law-abiding citizens.” (Read more from “Majority of Americans Believe Armed Educators Make Schools Safer” HERE)

Biden Opens U.S. Borders to 44,000 Ukrainians

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden has opened the United States’ borders to about 44,000 Ukrainians in over two months — a foreign population exceeding Burlington, Vermont’s resident population.

Since late March, Biden has welcomed about 22,000 Ukrainians at the U.S.-Mexico border, the latest Department of Homeland Security (DHS) data reveals. As Breitbart News exclusively reported, the administration has been releasing hundreds of Ukrainians into American communities via the San Ysidro Port of Entry in San Diego, California.

As part of that process, Ukrainians fly to Tijuana, Mexico, and then line up every day at the Port of Entry, where they are briefly detained and released into the U.S. interior. One source told Breitbart News that the process works like a “DMV for Ukrainians.” (Read more from “Biden Opens U.S. Borders to 44,000 Ukrainians” HERE)

Court Refuses to Dismiss Parents’ Case Over School’s Trans Indoctrination

/0 Comments/in , /by

A state court judge in Wisconsin has refused to dismiss a lawsuit brought by two sets of parents against a school district over its transgender procedures.

Those, in the Kettle Moraine School District, provide that minor students can change their names, their gender pronouns, and more at school without their parents consenting.

The case was brought by the Alliance Defending Freedom and the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty.

ADF lawyer Roger Brooks commented after the decision by the Waukesha County Circuit Court to deny the district’s motion to dismiss.

“Parents’ rights to direct the upbringing, education, and mental health treatment of their children is one of the most basic constitutional rights every parent holds dear, yet we are seeing more and more school districts across the country not only ignoring parents’ concerns but actively working against them,” he said.
