Biden Makes Cringe-Worthy Jokes That He’s ‘Really Not Irish’ Because He’s Sober, Doesn’t Have Relatives ‘In Jail’

President Biden told a series of cringe-worthy jokes about his Irish ancestry to mark St. Patrick’s Day, cracking that he’s surprised his distant Irish relatives aren’t “in jail” and that he’s “really not Irish” because he doesn’t drink alcohol.

The 80-year-old president, who is roughly five-eighths Irish, made the seemingly stereotype-laden attempts at humor as House Republicans investigate his family’s international business deals amid a federal criminal investigation of first son Hunter Biden.

“I’ve been to Ireland many times, but not to actually look up, to find my actual family members. And there are so many — and they actually weren’t in jail,” Biden said to scattered laughs as he recalled a six-day visit in which he met his relatives.

“There’s still a place called Finnegan’s pub … that’s related to my family,” the president went on.

“I’m the only Irishman you ever met, though, that’s never had a drink, so I’m OK. I’m really not Irish.” (Read more from “Biden Makes Cringe-Worthy Jokes That He’s ‘Really Not Irish’ Because He’s Sober, Doesn’t Have Relatives ‘In Jail'” HERE)

Pentagon Officials Make Ridiculous Claim About Alien Mothership Sending Probes to Earth

Pentagon officials said in a draft document last week that aliens could be visiting our solar system and releasing smaller probes like missions conducted by NASA when studying other planets.

A draft research report authored by Sean Kirkpatrick, the director of the Pentagon’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) and Abraham Loeb, chairman of Harvard University’s astronomy department was released on March 7 and focuses on the physical constraints of unidentified aerial phenomena.

“…An artificial interstellar object could potentially be a parent craft that releases many small probes during its close passage to Earth, an operational construct not too dissimilar from NASA missions,” the report read. “These ‘dandelion seeds’ could be separated from the parent craft by the tidal gravitational force of the Sun or by a maneuvering capability.”

The AARO was established in July 2022 and is responsible for tracking objects in the sky, underwater and in space – or possibly an object that has the ability to move from one domain to the next.

Congress tasked NASA to find 90% of all objects near Earth that are larger than 140 meters in 2005, which resulted in Pan-STARRS telescopes, according to the report. (Read more from “Pentagon Officials Make Ridiculous Claim About Alien Mothership Sending Probes to Earth” HERE)

Microsoft Adds ChatGPT Technology to Word, Excel, Office Software

Microsoft on Thursday trumpeted its latest plans to put artificial intelligence into the hands of more users, answering a spate of unveilings this week by its rival Google with upgrades to its own widely used office software.

The technology company previewed a new AI “copilot” for Microsoft 365, its product suite that includes Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations and Outlook emails.

First open to select business customers for testing, AI will offer a draft in these applications, speeding up content creation and freeing up workers’ time, Microsoft said.

The Redmond, Washington-based company, outpacing peers through investments in ChatGPT’s creator OpenAI, also showcased a new “business chat” experience that can pull data and perform tasks across applications on a user’s written command.

TikTok Threatened With U.S. Ban if Chinese Owners Don’t Sell Stakes

The Biden administration has reportedly threatened to ban the use of TikTok in the US unless the popular video sharing app’s China-based owners sell their stakes.

Officials from the Committee on Foreign Investment — an interagency task force that assesses potential national security risks in business deals — recently made the demand to executives at TikTok owner ByteDance, the Wall Street Journal reported late Wednesday.

The ultimatum marks a major escalation in ongoing scrutiny of TikTok on Capitol Hill, where the app has faced bipartisan criticism over concerns that the Chinese government could improperly access the data of American users.

The maneuver also brings the Biden administration closer in line with the stance of former President Donald Trump, who pursued a TikTok ban in 2020. The ban was eventually blocked in federal court.

TikTok — one of the most popular social media apps, with more than 100 million users in the US alone — fired back at the report of a potential ban, arguing a sale would not address Congress’ concerns about national security risks.

‘Jesus Revolution’ Passes $40 Million, Now Lionsgate’s Highest-Grossing Film Since 2019

Jesus Revolution, a faith-based film starring Jonathan Roumie and Kelsey Grammer, has surged past $40 million at the box office and has become entertainment company Lionsgate’s highest-grossing film since 2019.

The film has earned $40,862,465 as of March 13 since its Feb. 24 release date, according to Box Office Mojo. That puts the film in the top spot for Lionsgate since the pandemic, surpassing the Ryan Reynolds-starring action-comedy Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard,, which only earned $38 million in 2021.

“The numbers are incredible, especially coming out of a pandemic,” producer Kevin Downes told Christian Headlines. Downes also said he was amazed that so many were still “coming out in droves,” and that the audiences “are not going away.”

The movie has finished in the Top 5 at the box office in its first two weekends, Christian Headlines added.

Days after it was reported that Elon Musk could be developing a rival to OpenAI‘s chatGPT, the Tesla and Twitter CEO expressed confusion over how a non-profit organization became a $30 billion for-profit company.

. . .Responding to a meme about OpenAI co-founder and CEO Sam Altman and his company no longer being a “non-profit or even open,” Musk replied by questioning the legality of this shift. . .

Musk co-founded OpenAI, the startup that created ChatGPT. He left the organization in 2018 over some disagreements. . .

Joe Rogan: ‘Equity and Inclusiveness’ Is the ‘Sheep Costume the Wolf Wears’ to Force People Into Submission

Podcast host Joe Rogan warned this week that far-left woke initiatives were really shams that political elites use to force people to submit to their ideological wills.

Rogan made the remarks on “The Joe Rogan Experience” while talking about the brilliant way that America’s Founding Fathers set up the U.S. . .

“Over time these f***ing c****, these corrupt s***heads have done an amazing job of trying to chip away at that or convince people it should be chipped away at, and convince people that ‘freedom is not important, what’s important is equity and inclusiveness and diversity,’” he continued. “No no no that is a sheep costume the wolf wears, and the wolf is control, the wolf is control over people and forcing people to bend to your ideological will, whether it’s the will of the people on the right or the will of people on the left. That’s the form that it comes in, it comes in the form of ‘equity and inclusiveness.’” (Read more from “Joe Rogan: ‘Equity and Inclusiveness’ Is the ‘Sheep Costume the Wolf Wears’ to Force People Into Submission” HERE)

Students Slam Dem Lawmakers Who Demanded University Cancel Conservative Speaker Events

Democratic Pennsylvania lawmakers are demanding a state university cancel three conservative speaker events set to occur this semester because of alleged “hate speech,” according to a Wednesday statement.

Conservative student groups at the University of Pittsburgh (UPitt) will host Daily Wire commentator Michael Knowles, Senior Editor Cabot Phillips and former University of Kentucky swimmer and Independent Women’s Forum spokeswoman Riley Gaines at separate events this semester, according to an Instagram post. The LGBTQ+ Equality Caucus, led by Democratic state Reps. Jessica Benham and Malcolm Kenyatta, issued a statement on Wednesday that demanded UPitt cancel the events because the speakers are “transphobic.” . . .

The Turning Point USA (TPUSA) chapter will host Phillips on March 24 to speak about “Everything The Media Won’t Tell You” and Gaines, who competed against transgender swimmer Lia Thomas during the 2022 NCAA women’s swimming championship, on March 27 to speak about efforts to “Save Women’s Sports.” The College Republican chapter will host a debate sponsored by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute between Knowles and transgender professor Deirdre McCloskey about “Transgenderism & Womanhood” on April 18.

Liliana Orozco, TPUSA chapter president, told the DCNF that the chapter invited Gaines to speak because she is relatable as a recent college graduate. Khaleil Laracuente, the chapter’s Vice President, said that the lawmakers are “supposed to uphold and defend the Constitution,” but their actions show that “they are not here to do so, nor do they care about the First Amendment.”

“I find it quite repulsive that government officials who are well-versed in the laws and comprehend that Pitt is unable to cancel our event without exposing a lawsuit are still pressing for them to do so,” Laracunete told the DCNF.

Tech Tycoon Called a ‘Creep’ for $100K Offer to Female Plane Passenger

A tech tycoon has been branded a “creep” after allegedly offering a woman $100,000 to take off her face mask on board a Delta flight.

Steve Kirsch took to Twitter to say he made the anonymous passenger the offer last Friday.

“I am on board a Delta flight right now. The person sitting next to me in first-class refused $100,000 to remove her mask for the entire flight,” the millionaire wrote. “No joke. This was after I explained they don’t work. She works for a pharma company.”

Kirsch accompanied his post with a selfie that showed him smiling on board the full flight. He did not disclose the destination to which he was traveling. . .

In 2020, Kirsch created a research fund for potential COVID treatments, pouring $1 million into the venture, according to MIT Technology Review. (Read more from “Tech Tycoon Called a ‘Creep’ for $100K Offer to Female Plane Passenger” HERE)
