Disgraced Nuclear Official’s Security Clearance Doesn’t Add Up, Professionals Say

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former officials in multiple presidential administrations are questioning how disgraced genderfluid Biden Energy Department official Sam Brinton received a high level security clearance.

An outspoken LGBTQ activist who goes by they/them pronouns, Brinton was appointed in February and was the first genderfluid person to hold a federal leadership role. Brinton was fired, however, after allegedly stealing luggage at airports in Minnesota and Las Vegas. The former official now faces a felony charge for the alleged theft in Minneapolis, while Vegas authorities have issued a grand larceny charge.

Inconsistencies in Brinton’s origin story were highlighted by news site LGBTQ Nation, pointing to a lack of transparency and differing accounts given by Brinton’s since Brinton first rose to prominence as an LGBTQ activist in 2010.

A former Justice Department Official in the Environment and Natural Resources Division told the Daily Caller it’s possible due diligence on Brinton was sidestepped over concerns about discrimination law and public accusations of discrimination against an LGBTQ person. Such an action would be irresponsible, the former official said, as Brinton’s position within the Energy Department requires comprehensive knowledge of America’s nuclear secrets and extra vetting known as a Q clearance, which can take months to obtain if the bureaucratic process is not expedited.

Newsom Slams Biden for Border Policy: ‘California Is About to Break’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) is warning California that the state could “break” amid President Joe Biden’s decision to reverse Title 42, which allows police and border officers to expedite the expulsion of illegal immigrants.

The Biden Administration is planning to reverse the Trump-era policy, which Newsom says would cause a huge flow of illegal migrants to enter the state through the southern border.

“The fact is, what we’ve got right now is not working and is about to break in a post-42 world unless we take some responsibility and ownership,” Newsom said, as the policy is expected to be lifted next week.

Adding that he doesn’t mean to “point fingers,” Newsom complained about Biden sending “planes and buses to California full of migrants because of all the good work … the state is doing for the immigrant community.”

The California governor claimed the U.S. government is sending hundreds of illegal immigrants to the state because it is “taking care of folks,” adding, “the more we do, the burden is placed disproportionately on us.” (Read more from “Newsom Slams Biden for Border Policy: ‘California Is About to Break'” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) is calling for an end to the state’s runoff election system for general elections, a week after the latest head-to-head contest for its U.S. Senate seat.

Raffensperger called on the Peach State’s General Assembly to reform the system in a press release Wednesday.

“Georgia is one of the only states in the country with a general election runoff,” Raffensperger said. “We’re also one of the only states that always seems to have a runoff. I’m calling on the General Assembly to visit the topic of the general election runoff and consider reforms.”

Raffensperger is not opposed to maintaining the runoff system for primary elections but believes it should be eliminated in general election contests, his office clarified to the Washington Examiner. (Read more from “Running Out of Time: Major Change Could Come to Elections” HERE)

DeSantis calls for Florida grand jury to investigate coronavirus vaccine ‘wrongdoing’

By Fox Business. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Tuesday that he is petitioning the state’s Supreme Court to “impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate any and all wrongdoing in Florida with respect to COVID-19 vaccines.” . .

“In Florida, it is against the law to mislead and to misrepresent, particularly when you’re talking about the efficacy of a drug,” DeSantis said.

“Today, I’m announcing a petition with the Supreme Court of Florida to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate any and all wrongdoing in Florida with respect to COVID-19 vaccines,” he continued. “And we anticipate that we will get the approval for that.

“That will be something that will be impaneled most likely in the Tampa Bay area and that will come with legal processes that will be able to get more information and bring legal accountability for those who committed misconduct,” DeSantis added.

During the coronavirus pandemic, DeSantis has distanced Florida from the mask mandates, lockdowns and other prevention measures that have affected the lives of millions of Americans in other states.

Latest ‘Twitter Files’ Reveal Secret Suppression of Right-Wing Commentators

/0 Comments/in , /by

The second installment of Elon Musk’s “Twitter Files” dropped Thursday night and reveals how the social media giant was secretly “blacklisting” conservative tweets and users.

Independent journalist Bari Weiss detailed in a series of posts how Twitter used so-called “shadow banning” to limit the visibility of tweets coming from far-right users.

Conservative talk show host Dan Bongino, Stanford University’s anti-COVID lockdown advocate Dr. Jay Bhattacharya and right-wing activist Charlie Kirk were among the users targeted for suppression by Twitter, according to Weiss.

The former New York Times and Wall Street Journal writer said the blacklists were built “in secret” and “without informing users.”

“A new [Twitter Files] investigation reveals that teams of Twitter employees build blacklists, prevent disfavored tweets from trending, and actively limit the visibility of entire accounts or even trending topics — all in secret, without informing users,” Weiss wrote in a tweet Thursday.

Male U.S. Soldiers in Hawaii Under Investigation for Sexually Explicit Gay Bondage Photos While in Partial Uniform

/0 Comments/in , /by

Soldiers who wore bondage gear and dog masks in sexually explicit photos while in uniform are under investigation, the Army confirmed Monday.

The photos, which have appeared on social media, show male soldiers in uniform, or parts of uniforms, wearing dog masks, leather and chains. Some of the photos depict poses of submission and sexual acts. Another photo shows a soldier in combat fatigues wearing the dog mask on an airfield.

Some of the photos appeared on Twitter Friday. The soldiers are based in Hawaii.

Internal Pentagon email traffic obtained by USA TODAY shows Army officials believed some of the photos appear to have been taken at a base gym in Hawaii. The source of the email was not authorized to release it. The email notes that reactions to the photos has been “hyper politicized.”

“U.S. Army Pacific is aware of content found on social media reflecting soldiers’ activities while wearing uniforms,” Maj. Jonathon Lewis, an Army spokesperson, said in a statement. “The incident is currently under investigation.” (Read more from “Male U.S. Soldiers in Hawaii Under Investigation for Sexually Explicit Gay Bondage Photos While in Partial Uniform” HERE)

Male Fox News Star Fired, Another Accused of Sexually Harassing Young Men, Vulgarity

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .Fox News has fired legal analyst Andrew Napolitano after a male producer accused him of sexual harassment.

John Fawcett works on Larry Kudlow’s show on Fox Business Network and is now suing Fox claiming he was sexually harassed by Napolitano. He said the on-air personality stroked his arm and made suggestive comments while they were on an elevator together.

Fawcett also alleges in his lawsuit, which has been filed in the state Supreme Court in Manhattan, that “sexual harassment, sex discrimination, and racial discrimination are still tolerated at Fox.” . . .

Fawcett is also complaining about Larry Kudlow whose show he began working for after Fox canceled Dobb’s show. The producer said he heard Kudlow use slurs and make sexually inappropriate remarks “in front of multiple staffers,” including a senior vice president and himself, and there was no recrimination. . .

In his lawsuit, Fawcett alleges that Kudlow made inappropriate comments about wanting to have a three-way with a Fox Anchor. (Read more from “Male Fox News Star Fired, Another Accused of Sexually Harassing Young Men, Vulgarity” HERE)

Did Elon Musk Spend $44 Billion To Say the Truth About His Son?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Why did Elon Musk, a 51-year-old celebrity entrepreneur who built the largest fortune in the world by capitalizing on the frontiers of science, embark on a $44 billion crusade to bring free speech to Twitter, and with it, a target on his back? Was he motivated by fame (which he already had)? By ego (which every billionaire has)? His desire to leave a political legacy (which billionaires can easily buy)? Or was there a more personal motivation that transcends the obvious reasons at the surface? The answer probably includes some mix of all of the above.

Before Musk took over the company, dissent from the new left-wing orthodoxy — which, among other things, dictated that one can defy biology and “transition” to the opposite sex — was forbidden. The second batch of “Twitter Files” revealed the company engaged in widespread shadowbanning to suppress accounts for whatever the platform’s ideological censors labeled as hate speech. . .

In June, it was reported that Musk’s 18-year-old son, Xavier Alexander Musk, came out as transgender and filed to change his name to Vivian Jenna Wilson in April. In his petition to the court, he wrote that he requested the change because “I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.”

Precisely when Musk’s son began to identify as a girl is unknown, but it’s clear that as Musk contemplated a buyout of the blue bird app, issues were brewing in the family. . .

On Monday, Musk may have revealed the true intentions of his digital crusade with a morning tweet.

Border City Asks Biden Admin To Use Military Bases to House Illegal Aliens Amid Massive Surge

/0 Comments/in , /by

Officials with the city of El Paso, Texas, are asking the Biden administration to use military bases to house illegal immigrants to relieve a strain on local resources as they prepare for the end of the public health expulsion order Title 42 on Dec. 21, El Paso Deputy City Manager Mario D’Agostino told the Daily Caller News Foundation Tuesday.

D’Agostino suggested that the military house the illegal immigrants on bases like Ft. Bliss as it previously did with Afghan refugees after the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is seeing nearly 2,500 illegal migrants crossing each day into El Paso and the surge is overwhelming the city’s ability to support those who crossed illegally, forcing many to sleep on the streets.

“What we have been saying to all of our federal partners is that this Title 42 going away, with the numbers we’re seeing today is a true emergency for the community. It’s a federal crisis that’s happening in the border of El Paso. With that, they’re gonna need to do some federal operation, maybe like what we saw with the Afghans,” D’Agostino told the DCNF.

The city accommodated CBP’s release of about 250 illegal migrants per day from custody in August.

Top Doctor: Long COVID Is Being Exaggerated To Extort Taxpayers

/0 Comments/in , /by

John’s Hopkins Medical School Professor Dr. Marty Makary, who also serves as a health advisor for Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin, is warning “long COVID” is being exaggerated in order to extort American taxpayers for more money.

“Long Covid is real. I have reliable patients who describe lingering symptoms after Covid infection. But public-health officials have massively exaggerated long Covid to scare low-risk Americans as our government gives more than $1 billion to a long Covid medical-industrial complex,” Makary writes in the Wall Street Journal.

“The National Institutes for Health has been intensely focused on studying long Covid, spending nearly $1.2 billion on the condition. To date, the return on investment has been zero for the people suffering with it. But it’s been terrific for MRI centers, lab testing companies and hospitals that set up long Covid clinics,” he continues. “I’ve talked to the staff at some of these clinics and it’s unclear what they are actually offering to people beyond a myriad of tests.”
