Hunter Biden’s ‘Sugar Brother’ Attorney Could Be on the Hook Next

/0 Comments/in , /by

Entanglements with President Joe Biden’s embattled son Hunter Biden could potentially bring down high-powered California attorney Kevin Morris — who was recently spotted reportedly smoking a bong on the balcony of his Malibu home.

Morris, a longtime Democrat donor who was best known for throwing money around in Hollywood — helping to broker a licensing deal for “South Park,” among other things — has been linked to Hunter Biden since 2019 in what the New York Post called “more of a bromance than an attorney-client relationship.”

According to the Post’s report, Morris earned a reputation as Hunter’s “Sugar Brother” — in addition to allegedly acting as a “fixer” for the president’s son, Morris may have assisted in marketing and selling some of his paintings and reportedly loaned him the money when he needed to pay back $2 million in federal tax debt.

But his relationship with the younger Biden could potentially get him into trouble with the California State Bar. (Read more from “Hunter Biden’s ‘Sugar Brother’ Attorney Could Be on the Hook Next” HERE)

Kentucky Gov. Backs Transgender Procedures Linked to Negative Health Outcomes for Children

/0 Comments/in , /by

Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear has maintained that he doesn’t support sex change surgeries on minors, but that he does support access to other so-called “gender-affirming” treatments, procedures that have been linked to negative health outcomes for children.

The issue has come to the forefront of the Kentucky gubernatorial race with Beshear saying in recent weeks that he doesn’t support transgender surgeries on kids, and that they don’t happen in the commonwealth. He has openly voiced support for non-surgical procedures. In his veto message of a bill banning all transgender procedures, including surgeries, on children, Beshear said that the bill would “cause an increase in suicide among Kentucky’s youth.”

This message is disputed by “detransitioners” and medical associations who say that transgender treatments on minors do not actually help mental health or reduce suicide rates, as well as medical groups that have warned of potential health risks from non-surgical gender procedures.

“There is not a single long term study to demonstrate the safety or efficacy of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for transgender-believing youth. This means that youth transition is experimental, and therefore, parents cannot provide informed consent, nor can minors assent to these interventions. Moreover, the best long-term evidence we have among adults shows that medical intervention fails to reduce suicide,” the American College of Pediatricians says.

The American College of Pediatricians is a medical association group founded in 2002 that is composed of over 600 physicians and other health care workers across the U.S. “who are dedicated to the well-being of children.” (Read more from “Kentucky Gov.

FBI Gunned Down Utah Man Accused of Threatening Joe Biden; Who Was Craig Robertson? What We Know About the Armed Trump Supporter Shot Dead in Raid

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. The FBI gunned down a Utah man accused of making death threats against President Joe Biden during a raid on his home on Wednesday morning.

Seventy-five-year-old Craig Deleeuw Robertson was being charged with three counts of interstate threats, threats against the president, and influencing, impeding, and retaliating against federal law enforcement officers by threat, according to a criminal complaint. . .

“PERHAPS UTAH WILL BECOME FAMOUS THIS WEEK AS THE PLACE A SNIPER TOOK OUT BIDEN THE MARXIST,” one of his Facebook posts allegedly read.

“IN MY DREAM I SEE JOE BIDEN’S BODY IN A DARK CORNER OF A DC PARKING GARAGE WITH HIS HEAD SEVERED AND LYING IN A HUGE PUDDLE OF BLOOD. HOORAH,” another post said. . .

The FBI deemed these threats “credible,” and attempted to serve arrest and search warrants at Robertson’s home in Provo, Utah, but ended up shooting and killing him around 6:15 a.m. local time. (Read more from “FBI Gunned Down Utah Man Accused of Threatening Joe Biden” HERE)

Who Was Craig Robertson? What We Know About the Armed Trump Supporter Shot Dead in Utah FBI Raid

By New York Post. The Utah man shot dead by FBI agents Wednesday morning after making online assassination threats to President Biden and other top Democrats was a staunch Donald Trump supporter, Air Force veteran, Second Amendment advocate and twice-widowed father of three adult children. . .

The registered Republican and self-proclaimed “MAGA Trumper” wrote online Sunday that he heard Biden was coming to Utah so he was digging out his camouflage hunting suit and “cleaning the dust off the M24 sniper rifle.”

Robertson had a collection of firearms that he frequently showed off in photos posted to his social media profiles, where he described himself as an “Air Force Vietnam Era vet, retired welding inspector, gunsmith and woodworker. NRA Life Member, 2A advocate and owner of many AR rifles + many other rifles, shotguns, and handguns.” . . .

Clark said Robertson was an “established icon” in their neighborhood and was often outspoken about his political views.

“He was a boomer, and he was very political and sometimes made off-color jokes … but nothing that indicated it was a threat,” he said, adding that he was “frail of health.” (Read more from “Who Was Craig Robertson? What We Know About the Armed Trump Supporter Shot Dead in Utah FBI Raid” HERE)

Drug User Cannot Be Barred From Owning Guns, U.S. Court Rules

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal appeals court on Wednesday ruled that a decades-old law prohibiting users of illegal drugs from owning firearms was unconstitutional as applied to the case of a marijuana user, the latest fallout from a U.S. Supreme Court ruling last year that expanded gun rights.

A three-judge panel of the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals concluded that the federal law violated a Mississippi man’s right to “keep and bear arms” under the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment.

The man, Patrick Daniels, had been convicted under that law after law enforcement found a pistol and a semi-automatic rifle in his vehicle during a traffic stop along with marijuana cigarette butts.

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration did not administer a drug test, though Daniels admitted he sometimes smoked marijuana, which federal law prohibits. He was sentenced to nearly four years in prison.

While his case was pending, the conservative-majority Supreme Court in June 2022 declared for the first time that the Second Amendment protects an individual’s right to carry a handgun in public for self-defense. (Read more from “Drug User Cannot Be Barred From Owning Guns, U.S. Court Rules” HERE)

Religious Group Blasts FBI Memo: ‘Unconstitutional Effort to Surveil Catholics’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Catholic advocacy group tore into the FBI on Wednesday over revelations that an effort from the bureau’s Richmond, Virginia, office to target certain “traditionalist” Catholics may have been more widespread.

CatholicVote referenced a less redacted version of an FBI document released by the House Judiciary Committee that revealed involvement from the bureau’s Portland and Los Angeles offices in an initiative that had initially appeared isolated to the Richmond office.

“The FBI has finally acknowledged what we have long suspected, namely that FBI efforts to spy on Catholic churches went far beyond a single field office and a so-called rogue agent,” CatholicVote President Brian Burch said in a statement.

Burch added, “Further, these new FBI admissions raise even more questions now about the intent, purpose, and scope of this illegal and unconstitutional effort to surveil Catholics inside of churches across America.”

The document, which was first leaked soon after its internal issuance by the FBI’s Richmond field office in January, functioned as a threat assessment of “radical-traditionalist Catholics.” The FBI determined they made up a “small minority of overall Roman Catholic adherents” and that there existed an “increasingly observed interest” of violent extremists within that particular group of Catholics.

Perverters in Chief: Jill Biden Goes on Grotesque New Mission

/0 Comments/in , /by

First Lady Jill Biden’s campaign role is to go where the 2024 votes are for her octogenarian husband – and for Democrats that means the symbolic “queer” capital of the world, San Francisco, where she posed last week with a bevy of homosexual drag queens.

Mrs. Biden ventured to the LGBT mecca for an event at Manny’s, a community gathering “space” that boasted on Instagram in a post about her visit as being “unapologetically queer and unapologetically political.”

The Manny’s Instagram post shows Jill Biden posing with what appears to be five drag queens, men dressing up as pretend women. Such “queens” usually come off as crude caricatures mocking the fairer sex. The post’s caption reads: “This photo says it all – San Francisco queens meeting the First Lady of the United States of America in a civic meeting space in the Mission District of my fair city of San Francisco.” . . .

Underneath the Manny’s photo with Mrs. Biden in the Libs of TikTok tweet is another photo from a different pro-LGBT Instagram account (“sweetestmilksf”) showing a drag queen posing with a bunch of young children, along with an adult dressed as the Easter Bunny. In the space of just a few years, establishment Democrats have fully embraced the idea that homosexual drag queens – who in their adult “drag show” performances usually revel in crude sexual humor – are appropriate role models for innocent kids. . .

In June, Mrs. Biden held a Democrat fundraiser at Manny’s. Politico reporter Dustin Gardiner quoted her at the event as saying about the 2024 election: “Remember how hard it was last time? This time, it’s going to be even harder… The fight for freedom doesn’t end. This is the most important election of our lives.”

Biden Rips Reporter’s ‘Lousy Question’ About Speakerphone Calls With Hunter

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden insisted Wednesday that he “never talked business with anybody” after his son Hunter’s former business partner Devon Archer told Congress last week that he was on speakerphone during roughly 20 business meetings and even met his son’s foreign patrons at in-person events.

“There’s this testimony now where one of your son’s former business associates is claiming that you were on speakerphone a lot with them, talking business,” Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy told Biden after a wind-power event in New Mexico.

“I never talked business with anybody. I knew you’d have a lousy question,” Biden scoffed.

“Why is that a lousy question?” Doocy asked.

“Because it’s not true,” the president replied as he walked away. (Read more from “Biden Rips Reporter’s ‘Lousy Question’ About Speakerphone Calls With Hunter” HERE)

Biden Admin Secretly Encouraged Overthrow of Leader Who Wasn’t Pro-Ukraine Enough, Leaked Cable Reveals

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s administration’s diplomats encouraged Pakistani political leaders to remove former Prime Minister Imran Khan from office after he hesitated to criticize Russia for its war against Ukraine, according to a new report on Wednesday.

Imran Khan was removed from office in April 2022 after a controversial vote of no-confidence by the Pakistani National Assembly. On March 7, 2022, officials from the Department of State met with Pakistan’s then-Ambassador to the United States Asad Majeed Khan and encouraged Imran Khan’s removal from office after he visited Russia shortly after it began hostilities in Ukraine, according to a diplomatic cable that was published by The Intercept.

“I think if the no-confidence vote against the Prime Minister succeeds, all will be forgiven in Washington,” said Donald Lu, the Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asian Affairs, according to the cable. “[T]he Russia visit is being looked at as a decision by the Prime Minister.”

Lu claimed that Imran Khan’s visit had damaged the Pakistan-U.S. bilateral relationship and that, absent Khan’s ouster, relations “will be tough going ahead,” the cable shows.

State Lawmakers Across the Country Are Ditching the Democrats for the GOP: Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

In multiple states, Democratic legislators are switching their parties to become Republicans, citing the Democratic Party’s left-wing shift and the difficulty to accomplish policy goals, according to several reports.

Since 1994, 173 state legislators have changed their parties mid-term, of which 83 were Democrats who became Republicans, while just 23 shifted the other way, according to research by Politico. Since 2022, at least three legislators in West Virginia, North Carolina and Louisiana, who were elected as Democrats, have joined the Republican benches with significant political consequences.

In West Virginia, first-term state Del. Elliott Pritt became a Republican, joining the House of Delegates’ 88-seat Republican supermajority in a 100-member chamber, according to an announcement reported by West Virginia Public Broadcasting. Pritt attributed his decision to the Democratic Party’s powerlessness in the state legislature and frustration with repeated failures by the party to enact policy.

“Even if I were to run again and win, I would look at another term of never getting another bill passed, never getting anything done. For the time I’m going to be there, I’m not going to sit there and be a lame duck and not get anything,” said Pritt in comments reported by Politico. Pritt was preceded by former state Del. Mick Bates, who switched his party affiliation to Republican during the last session of the legislature, in 2021.

January 6 Committee Destroyed Records, Videos; Trump’s Rights Violated

/0 Comments/in , /by

The January 6 Committee defied a demand last year by incoming Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) that it preserve all of its records, evidence, and transcripts, and has destroyed much of what it collected over more than a year of investigation.

Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) made that revelation to Fox News Digital on Tuesday, also noting that the committee had not looked into possible security lapses at the Capitol, and that much of the material the committee did preserve was disorganized.

Fox News reported:

The House select committee that investigated the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021 failed to adequately preserve documents, data and video depositions – including communications it had with the Biden White House that are still missing – according to the Republican lawmaker overseeing the GOP investigation into the committee’s work.

The now-disbanded “J6” committee, which was run by Democrats and included only two GOP members, has also failed to provide any evidence that it looked into Capitol Hill security failures on the day of the riot, Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., chairman of the Subcommittee on Oversight for the Committee on House Administration, told Fox News Digital.
