Hunter Biden Lawyer Accused of Misleading Clerk to Block Release of Damning Evidence; Is Hunter Biden’s Plea Deal In Jeopardy?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By New York Post. First son Hunter Biden’s legal team appeared to pull a dirty trick Tuesday to block the release of damning evidence ahead of his expected guilty plea to federal charges of tax evasion and weapons crimes.

The drama began in the morning when the House Ways and Means Committee filed an amicus brief to Delaware US District Judge Maryellen Noreika arguing that the 53-year-old had benefited from “political interference which calls into question the propriety of the investigation” into alleged crimes including money laundering, felony tax evasion and failure to register as a foreign agent.

The filing included testimony by two IRS whistleblowers who sat for transcribed interviews May 26 and June 1.

What happened next was outlined in a letter sent to the judge Tuesday afternoon by the committee’s top lawyer, Theodore Kittila.

“[A]t approximately 1:30 p.m., we received word that our filing was removed from the docket,” Kittila said. “We promptly contacted the Clerk’s office, and we were advised that someone contacted the Court representing that they worked with my office [emphasis original] and that they were asking the Court to remove this from the docket. We immediately advised that this was inaccurate. The Clerk’s Office responded that we would need to re-file. We have done so now.” (Read more from “Hunter Biden Lawyer Accused of Misleading Clerk to Block Release of Damning Evidence” HERE)

Hunter Biden’s Plea Deal Is Now in Jeopardy

By Fox News. JESSE WATTERS: Hunter Biden’s plea deal is now in jeopardy. President Joe Biden’s son is set to appear in court tomorrow where Delaware Judge Maryellen Noriega will decide on whether or not to sign off on Hunter’s plea deal and Hunter Biden may have just jinxed the deal. You’re not going to believe what he just did. Republican Congressman Jason Smith just filed a brief with the judge entering into evidence, the IRS whistleblower testimony, basically a legal move to get the judge to think, “You know, what? Are you really going to let this guy off so easy?”

Hunter Biden’s attorney called the courthouse clerk today and pretended to be a Republican attorney and told the clerk, “Oops, you know what? We didn’t really mean to file all that whistleblower stuff. Can you guys just strike that from the record?” Seriously? Hunter Biden’s lawyer made a phony phone call to the court and tried to remove the whistleblower testimony.

‘Violated All of the Orthodoxy’: RFK Jr Slams Health Agencies for Supporting COVID Lockdowns

/0 Comments/in , /by

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. argued during a Tuesday town hall that public health agencies were wrong to endorse mass lockdowns to mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Democratic presidential candidate told Fox News host Sean Hannity that agencies such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) went against their own protocol when they encouraged lockdown policies.

“We’ve had the WHO, CDC, the DHS, and all the three-letter agencies have thought about pandemics for a hundred years. And they’ve worked on very, very carefully on pandemic preparedness protocols. And all of those protocols said you never lock down a population. What they were doing violated all of the orthodoxy.”

Kennedy claimed that former medical doctor D.A. Henderson— who is credited with eradicating small pox — argued against lockdown measures in a series of papers. D.A. Henderson did co-author at least one paper criticizing lockdown measures to mitigate the spread of viruses.

“You cannot stop a respiratory virus with lockdowns. You’re going to actually amplify it, because they spread indoors,” RFK Jr. said. (Read more from “‘Violated All of the Orthodoxy’: RFK Jr Slams Health Agencies for Supporting COVID Lockdowns” HERE)

Rand Paul Torches Doctors Warning of ‘S— Show’ if China Accused of COVID Release: ‘The Business of Science’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., condemned a British doctor’s 2020 Slack message to other prominent virologists regarding the origins of the coronavirus released in connection with a House Oversight Committee hearing last week, saying it is another piece of evidence that public coronavirus narratives were based on business and money, rather than true science.

“This was never about science. This was about the business of science. It was about the money,” Paul, who has sparred with Dr, Anthony Fauci in several hearings,, fumed Monday on “The Ingraham Angle.”

“Follow the money trail, and you see millions of dollars exchanging hands in the first few months of 2020 to the people who came out and said ‘nothing to see here couldn’t have happened in the lab’.”

The missive from Dr. Andrew Rambaut suggested top scientists dismissed the Wuhan lab leak theory over political concerns, as some Republicans have alleged the messaging was meant to adhere to or mimic the company line from Dr. Fauci, then leading the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

“Given the s— show that would happen if anyone serious accused the Chinese of even accidental release, my feeling is we should say that given there is no evidence of a specifically engineered virus, we cannot possibly distinguish between natural evolution and escape so we are content with ascribing it to natural process,” Rambaut wrote in a Slack message to Drs. Kristian Andersen, Edward Holmes and Robert Garry, per a committee report.

WH Press Briefing Spends More Time on Biden Dog Biting Spree Than New Hunter Revelations

/0 Comments/in , /by

White House reporters spent more time at the Tuesday briefing asking about President Joe Biden’s dog Commander’s biting spree than about the newest Hunter Biden revelations.

Commander, a German Shepherd, sent a Secret Service officer to the hospital and bit six other individuals in the White House. A 194-page Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) document detailed the dog’s aggression and how it bit people on several occasions.

Reporters asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about the dog’s biting spree at least four times. That is more time spent asking about the dog than about the criminal investigations into Hunter Biden. Monday, Business Insider reported Hunter sold his art to a Democratic Party donor who his father appointed to the U.S. Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage Abroad.

Jean-Pierre said the dog bites were because of the “stressful” White House environment and the Biden family is working with the U.S. Secret Service to get Commander proper training. (Read more from “WH Press Briefing Spends More Time on Biden Dog Biting Spree Than New Hunter Revelations” HERE)

Hunter Biden Prosecutor Will Be Allowed to Testify Before Congress After Republicans Slam Plea Deal

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden prosecutor and U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware David Weiss will be allowed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee, according to a letter from the Department of Justice.

Weiss’ testimony would come after the announcement of a plea deal where Hunter would plead guilty to two tax misdemeanors and admit the facts of a gun charge. If the deal is accepted by a judge, it will likely mean no jail time for the president’s son. Republican lawmakers were quick to decry the deal, saying that it was too lenient on Hunter, prompting Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) to send a letter requesting Weiss’ testimony before Congress.

“The Department of Justice (Department) appreciates the Committee on the Judiciary’s (Committee’s) acceptance of our offer for U.S. Attorney Weiss to testify at a public hearing before the Committee. The Department is ready to offer U.S. Attorney Weiss to testify shortly after Congress returns from the August district work period, as described more fully below,” Assistant Attorney General Carlos Felipe Uriarte wrote in a letter to Jordan.

Potential dates for the testimony included September 27 or 28, and October 18 or 19. (Read more from “Hunter Biden Prosecutor Will Be Allowed to Testify Before Congress After Republicans Slam Plea Deal” HERE)

Judge Warns Hunter Biden’s Lawyers They Could Face Sanctions

/0 Comments/in , /by

A judge told lawyers for Hunter Biden they could face sanctions over the allegation that one member from their law firm lied to the court clerk over the phone to get records pulled from the docket.

The threat from Delaware U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika came the day before a scheduled hearing to consider a plea deal for tax and gun violations that could keep the first son out of prison.

“It appears that the caller misrepresented her identity and who she worked for in an attempt to improperly convince the clerk’s office to remove the amicus materials from the docket,” Noreika said in an order on Tuesday, according to the Daily Mail.

“Therefore, it is hereby ordered that, on or before 9pm today on July 25, 2023, counsel for defendant shall show cause as to why sanctions should not be considered for misrepresentations to the court,” the judge added.

The controversy stems from an amicus brief filing by lawyers representing House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO), who encouraged the court to “consider” whistleblower testimony from Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agents claiming the criminal case led by Delaware’s U.S. Attorney David Weiss has been slow-walked in a way that precluded more serious charges against Biden.

Whether you add it to your salad dressing or use it for all your cooking, olive oil offers more than its unique flavor.

Research has previously linked the Mediterranean staple to a lower risk of heart disease.

However, a new study, which will be presented at the flagship annual meeting of American Society for Nutrition held July 22–25, also highlighted the oil’s effects on brain health.

Adding just over half a tablespoon of olive oil to your daily diet could slash your risk of dying from dementia by a whopping 28 percent.

As many countries worldwide face rising rates of dementia cases, the study offers hope that healthy lifestyle factors could pose as an effective weapon against the devastating brain conditions. (Read more from “A Daily Dose of This Oil Could Slash Risk of Dying From Dementia by 28%” HERE)

Senate Votes to Keep China From Buying US Farmland

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Senate voted overwhelmingly to include an amendment to prevent future purchases of American agricultural land by foreign adversaries to the must-pass annual national defense bill on Tuesday.

The vote passed with bipartisan support 91-7. The only senators to vote against the measure were Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Alex Padilla (D-CA), Rand Paul (R-KY), Peter Welch (D-VT), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Mike Lee (R-UT) and Chris Murphy (D-CT).

The amendment was offered by Sens. Jon Tester (D-MT) and Mike Rounds (R-SD) in an effort to prevent countries like China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran from purchasing American farmland. The Senators said there were concerns after reports of China posing an even greater national security risk by acquiring U.S. farmland near military installations.

“In recent years, our country has seen firsthand attempts by our near-peer competitors to acquire land adjacent to our military bases,” Rounds said ahead of the vote on Tuesday on the Senate floor, mentioning an effort in 2022 by a Chinese government-linked company to buy a large plot of land miles from a crucial military drone base in North Dakota.

Billionaire ‘Ogre’ Accused of Raping ‘Perfect Target’ Autistic Teen After ‘Hand Off’ From Jeffrey Epstein: Suit

/0 Comments/in , /by

Billionaire investor Leon Black was accused Tuesday of raping an autistic teenager inside Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan mansion two decades ago after the pedophile financier facilitated a “hand off,” new court documents show.

In a complaint filed in Manhattan federal court, the alleged victim — identified under the pseudonym “Jane Doe” — said she was only 16 when Black pinned her down inside Epstein’s Upper East Side townhouse in 2002 and abused her with sex toys, causing her to bleed.

“Even as Black grabbed her hand so hard that she thought he broke bones, Jeffrey Epstein knew Jane Doe would never disobey,” the lawsuit states.

“Developmentally she is about 12, and when she was threatened to do as told because ‘bad girls’ get in ‘trouble,’ she did as she was told.”

The woman claims she was trafficked by Epstein and his longtime gal pal Ghislaine Maxwell for about a year before the alleged encounter with Black, whose lawyers deny the charges and insist he has never even met the woman concerned.

Gallup Poll: Only 18% Of Young Adults, 29% Of Democrats Are Extremely Proud to Be American

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Gallup poll released Tuesday showed that only 29% of Democrats express “extreme pride in being American,” compared to 60% of Republicans.

“Party identification remains the greatest demographic differentiator in expressions of national pride, and Republicans have been consistently more likely than Democrats and independents to express pride in being American throughout the trend,” a Gallup summary of the poll said.

“That gap has been particularly pronounced since 2018, with more than twice as many Republicans as Democrats saying they are extremely proud. Republicans are also nearly twice as likely as independents to express the highest degree of pride,” it said.

The poll also showed that only 18% of Americans ages 18-34 say they are extremely proud to be American. According to the poll, younger adults of all parties were “significantly less proud” than older adults.
