Majority of Voters Concerned About Joe Biden’s Mental and Physical Health: Poll

A majority of voters have concerns for President Joe Biden’s mental and physical health, specifically as it concerns capabilities required to be commander-in-chief.

A NBC News poll shows 68% have major or moderate concerns with Biden’s mental and physical health related to his job as president, compared to just 32% who have minor or no real concerns related to his health.

Of those polled, 60% also said they have major or moderate concerns with his ability to finish another four-year term, whereas only 40% had minor or no concerns.

If reelected in 2024, Biden would be 82-years-old on inauguration day in 2025, and 86 when leaving office on Jan. 20, 2029. He is currently the oldest president in U.S. history. The frontrunner in the Republican presidential primary, former President Donald Trump, was the second oldest president in U.S. history, based on the time he entered office.

Voters in the survey also had concerns about Trump’s mental and physical health, with 55% responding to having major or moderate concerns, and only 44% saying they have minor or no concerns about the former president’s physical or mental health.

More GOP Officials Report Receiving Suspicious Packages Following Similar Cases in Kansas, Tennessee

Republican Montana officials became the latest recipients of suspicious packages reportedly containing a white, powdery substance following similar incidents earlier this month in two other states, the Montana Senate GOP stated Friday.

“At least two Montana legislators have received suspicious packages in the mail containing a white powder. At this time, both are fine and law enforcement is investigating and will be testing the substance,” the Montana Senate GOP tweeted. The white powdery substance was reportedly sent with an “anonymous, threatening” letter following a recent pattern of similar cases involving GOP officials in Tennessee and Kansas, CNN reported.

GOP officials in the Tennessee House received anonymous letters containing an unknown substance June 22. Tennessee House Republicans tweeted that the letters “contained obvious threats by a liberal activist specifically targeting us.” The letters have prompted an FBI investigation.

Lab Leak Intelligence Exposes Misinformation Police

It appears that the people who came down with COVID-19 before anyone else were scientists who worked at the Chinese virology lab in Wuhan. This makes it difficult, bordering on ludicrous, to deny the virus originated in that lab. The latest reports, citing U.S. intelligence, point very clearly toward that conclusion.

What’s more, the intelligence suggests the Chinese research in question was funded by the U.S. government.

There are a hundred lessons to learn from this story, including how much we should mistrust China’s government and whether we should fund its research laboratories.

The Biden administration probably does not welcome this news, as America’s relationship with China is already compromised by the administration’s incompetence. An overly friendly visit to Beijing by Secretary of State Antony Blinken made no sense when paired with President Joe Biden’s remarks at a fundraiser labeling Chinese President Xi Jinping a dictator and mocking him over the spy balloon.

Though the key lesson is not about China but about humility. It’s a lesson not merely for Biden but for a broad swath of America’s elite class: Stop trying to shut down opinions you dislike by labeling them “disinformation” and instead engage with them honestly. Today’s “misinformation” might become tomorrow’s verified truth. (Read more from “Lab Leak Intelligence Exposes Misinformation Police” HERE)

‘Exhausted’ Pastors Suffering Decline in Overall Healthy, Respect, Friendship: Study

The overall health of pastors in the U.S. has declined markedly since 2015, with increasing numbers who say that they face declining respect from their community and a lack of true friends, according to a recent study.

Data collected by faith-based organization Barna Group as part of its Resilient Pastor research showed a significant decrease in pastors’ spiritual, mental and emotional well-being, as well as their overall quality of life, between 2015 and 2022, the group announced last week.

The study conducted 901 online interviews with Protestant senior pastors in 2015 and compared the results with those they compiled based on 585 interviews with pastors from Sept. 6 to Sept. 16, 2022. The interviews asked pastors to rate aspects of their lives on a scale of excellent, good, average, below average, poor or don’t know.

Pastors who reported that their mental and emotional health was below average spiked from 3% in 2015 to 10% in 2022, and those who said they were in excellent mental and emotional health cratered from 39% in 2015 to 11% last year.

Pastors also noted that recent years have taken a toll on their physical health, with 22% describing their physical well-being as poor or below average in 2022, compared to only 7% in 2015. While 24% said their physical health was excellent eight years ago, only 9% said the same last year.

‘I Hire for Diversity’: Pentagon Nominees Blocked by GOP Senator Are Pushing Left-Wing Initiatives to Reshape Military

Several of the military officers whose promotions are held up due to a senator’s fight with the Pentagon have supported left-wing cultural stances and diversity initiatives, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation review of social media posts, Pentagon materials and public footage.

Republican Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville has single-handedly blocked numerous officers’ confirmations in protest of Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin’s directive that the military fund out-of-state travel for female troops seeking abortions, initiating a game of chicken between Tuberville and the Pentagon that shows no sign of stopping. Yet several of the candidates in line for promotion have a history of making political statements and backed or spearheaded internal Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives related to race and sexuality, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation review of publicly available information.

“Comments by even a handful of the Biden Pentagon’s general officer nominees are instructive as to defense policy, as opposed to mere talking points,” William Thibeau, director of the American Military Project at the Center for the American Way of Life, explained to the DCNF.

“You win on what you focus on. In other words, what the commander talks about typically becomes the focus for the unit writ large,” he said.

For example, Tuberville’s hold applies to Air Force Gen. Charles. Q. Brown, who was recently nominated to replace Gen. Mark Milley as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, according to NBC News. Brown gained notoriety when he made a rare public statement on race in the midst of nationwide rioting and protests following George Floyd’s murder in 2020.

National Park Service Evicting 94-Year-Old Artist From Cape Cod Shack He’s Occupied for 77 Years

A group of nine owners of beachfront dune shacks in Provincetown, Massachusetts, are protesting National Park Service plans to move ahead with 10-year leases to new owners.

The shacks were seized by eminent domain in the 1960s, but the occupants then were given leases, some long-term and some from year-to-year.

In an attempt to make the situation more stable, NPS wants to lease out the shacks in 10-year increments and has been giving tours of the buildings, some of which still have the belongings of their occupants inside. Now, current occupants must leave.

Among those affected is Salvatore Del Deo, a 94-year-old artist who has lived in a dune shack given to him by a friend for 77 years. Mr. Del Deo began helping maintain the first iteration of his shack for original owner Jeanne Schnell in 1946, who later willed the structure to Mr. Del Deo and his wife.

In the eyes of the National Park Service, however, the rightful heir of the shack’s lifetime lease was not Mr. Del Deo but Schnell’s daughter Adrienne. The younger Schnell died in 2016, with Mr. Del Deo continuing to pay taxes on the property, and the National Park Service did not learn of her death until recently.

Whistleblower: Hunter Biden Deducted Payments to Sex Club, Hookers on His Taxes

President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, allegedly deducted tens of thousands of dollars in payments made to a prostitute and a sex club from his taxes, according to an IRS whistleblower.

An anonymous IRS criminal investigator to the House Ways and Means Committee during a June 1 interview that Biden improperly deducted these expenses on his 2018 tax forms. The whistleblower claimed Biden underreported his total income by unto $500,000, or $267,000 using “the most conservative approach.”

“So he underreported his total income by $267,000, if you are using the most conservative approach, and that is a tax loss of $106,000,” the whistleblower told congress. “So that includes deductions for personal wages and salaries paid, personal travel expenses paid, personal children expenses that he paid, and personal other expenses that he paid.”

The whistleblower told Congress that Biden’s “statements in his book completely contradicted what was being deducted on his tax return.” (Read more from “Whistleblower: Hunter Biden Deducted Payments to Sex Club, Hookers on His Taxes” HERE)

ABC, CBS Ignore Bombshell Whistleblower Claims of Hunter Biden’s ‘Preferential Treatment’ From DOJ

ABC’s “World News Tonight” and “CBS Evening News” on Thursday evening ignored the bombshell IRS whistleblower allegations that Hunter Biden received preferential treatment from the Justice Department (DOJ) regarding probes into tax violations.

On Thursday morning, House Republicans released transcripts of two IRS whistleblowers, one of whom provided evidence that Joe Biden was present when Hunter Biden pressured a Chinese business partner to send them millions of dollars, Breitbart News reported.

A second whistleblower also said the DOJ interfered in the effort to investigate Hunter Biden for tax crimes, although Joe Biden’s attorney general recently claimed otherwise.

But ABC and CBS evening news programming ignored the whistleblowers’ publicly available testimony provided by the House Ways and Means Committee. (Read more from “ABC, CBS Ignore Bombshell Whistleblower Claims of Hunter Biden’s ‘Preferential Treatment’ From DOJ” HERE)

Four Kids Rescued From Squalid Home Where Dead Trans Woman, Drugs, Sex Toys Found

Four children who were found in a home littered with booze, drugs, sex toys, and the corpse of a trans woman, were hidden away in a cramped back room crying for help, a Boston city councilor said.

City Councilor Erin Murphy told Boston 25 that first responders, who called to the home about a person in cardiac arrest, heard the children “crying for help.” First responders called about a person in cardiac arrest found a trans woman – a man in women’s clothes – who they were unable to revive.

“A lot of drug paraphernalia and sex toys all around and then one of the firefighters said that they heard a cry for help,” Murphy told the outlet. “That there were four children in the back room, and I am hearing that the adults in the apartment were not wanting first responders to go back when they heard kids crying for help, so that is very disturbing to me.”

A Boston Fire Department crew of first responders was dispatched to an apartment in a public housing complex Saturday morning for a call about a man who had gone into cardiac arrest, the Boston Herald reported. An incident report obtained by the Herald showed that the first responders discovered more than a man in a medical crisis.
