Biden Forgets Rishi Sunak’s Name in Major Gaffe

Joe Biden once again appeared to pronounce Rishi Sunak’s name incorrectly as he announced a fleet of highly powerful Abram tanks will be delivered to Ukraine. Stuttering as he referred to Germany Chancellor Olaf Scholz and French President Emmanuel Macron, Biden then referred to the Prime Minister as ‘Sa-nook’.

“The United States and Europe are fully united. This morning, I had a long conversation with our NATO allies. German Chancellor Scholz, President Macron, Prime Minister Sa-nook and Italian Prime Minister Meloni to continue our close coordination and our support of Ukraine,”the 80-year-old told a White House press briefing.

This isn’t the first time the President has struggled to name the leader of the United States’ closest ally.

When Sunak became PM last October, Biden told reporters: “Just today we’ve got news that ‘Rashid Sa-nook’ is now the Prime Minister.”

Gaffes aside, Biden announced America’s commitment to providing Ukraine with 31 M1 Abrams main battle tanks, the toughest in the US arsenal. (Read more from “Biden Forgets Rishi Sunak’s Name in Major Gaffe” HERE)

Judge: Teaching People How to Kill Federal Agents Is Not Protected by First Amendment

A North Carolina man indicted for allegedly teaching a government informant how to make explosive devices for the purpose of killing law enforcement officers is scheduled to face trial next month after he attempted — and failed — to get charges against him tossed.

U.S. District Court Judge James C. Dever III rejected Christopher “Kit” Arthur’s motion for dismissal last week that argues he has a First Amendment right to teach people how to make explosive devices.

Dever’s order clears the way for Arthur’s case to go to trial, with jury selection set to begin on Feb. 28. If convicted, Arthur could face up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

A retired Army scout and former sheriff’s deputy in Mount Olive, N.C., Arthur published manuals and YouTube videos that he promoted as teaching “wartime tactics to civilians for civil defense purposes,” while also providing consulting services to specific clients. . .

The order quoted Arthur as instructing the confidential government informant: “What these dumbasses are going to do, they’re going to hunker down right behind that damn armored vehicle and the other guys are going to run. And that’s when you start lobbing your grenades on them with your freaking shotty.” (Read more from “Judge: Teaching People How to Kill Federal Agents Is Not Protected by First Amendment” HERE)

Emails About Lacrosse-Playing Kids Link Hunter Biden, Wife of Disgraced Ex-FBI Agent Tied to Russian Oligarch

By New York Post. The wife of an ex-FBI agent arrested this week for allegedly helping a Russian oligarch has something in common with Hunter Biden — their lacrosse-playing daughters, data stored on the first son’s infamous laptop reveals.

Pamela McGonigal and Biden both received at least 29 emails related to the Next Level Lacrosse program and other activities associated with the sport from Oct. 7, 2014, to May 7, 2015, according to a search of the first son’s messages.

Two of Biden’s daughters with his first wife Kathleen Buhle — Finnegan and Maisy Biden — were midfielders on the varsity lacrosse team at the exclusive Sidwell Friends private school in Washington, DC, according to online records. . .

The emails connecting McGonigal and Hunter Biden through their daughters’ lacrosse activities were first reported by the right-wing Marco Polo USA research group.

Charles McGonigal — who’s accused of taking illegal payments from a Russian oligarch and a former Albanian spy — is also linked to Biden through the FBI’s investigation of Chi Ping Patrick Ho, who was arrested by agents at JFK Airport on Nov. 18, 2017.

‘Incredibly Suspicious’ Hunter Biden Email May Be Based on Classified Info: GOP Senator

By New York Post. A Hunter Biden email about Ukraine from 2014 looks ‘suspiciously’ like it could have come from classified information, a leading GOP senator has claimed.

Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) said the April 12, 2014 message to one of the first son’s business partners resembles documents that the State Department gives members of the Senate when they travel overseas.

“It reads like one of those scene-setters — highly detailed information in terms of Ukraine,” Johnson told Fox News Tuesday.

The email from Hunter to Devon Archer includes a granular 22-point memo the Biden scion described as “thoughts after doing some research.”

Those “thoughts” include the prescient predictions that Petro Poroshenko would be elected Ukraine’s president the following month and that “some sort of decentralization will likely occur in the East.” (Read more from “‘Incredibly Suspicious’ Hunter Biden Email May Be Based on Classified Info: GOP Senator” HERE)

Rookie Georgia Police Officer Resigns After Department Bars Him From Expressing Views on Traditional Marriage

Rookie Georgia police officer Jacob Kersey resigned after his superiors threatened to terminate him for expressing his views on traditional marriage, the Daily Signal reported today.

“I never would have thought I would have been placed in a situation where I have to choose between my Christian faith and my dream job,” 19-year-old Kersey said Wednesday in a Facebook post. “I am grateful for the opportunity that I was given to be a police officer. I do not take that honor and responsibility lightly. However, my integrity and Christian beliefs are at the core of who I am, and I will not abandon them,” he added.

Kersey’s career in law enforcement was cut short following a brief Facebook post on January 2, 2023, the Daily Signal reported. In the post, he expressed a widely-held religious belief that marriage, designed by God, does not include homosexual unions.

“God designed marriage. Marriage refers to Christ and the church,” Kersey said in the post. “That’s why there is no such thing as homosexual marriage,” the post concluded.

The next day, Kersey’s supervisor requested he remove the post; Kersey refused, and was warned he could be terminated if he did not comply, according to the Daily Signal’s reporting. Shortly after that, Maj. Bradwick L. Sherrod ordered him to “return everything he had that belonged to the city,” and Kersey was placed on paid administrative leave while the city investigated, the outlet also reported.

Facebook’s Decision on Trump Ban Will Probably Infuriate Liberals

Donald Trump has now been fully reinstated on social media. Twitter released him from the bonds of political correctness jail upon Elon Musk’s takeover. Facebook and Instagram have now followed, insisting that “new guardrails” will be constructed to “deter repeat offenses” (via NBC News):

Former President Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts are being reinstated, the social media giant Meta announced Wednesday — a little more than two years after he was suspended from the platforms over incendiary posts on the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol.

Nick Clegg, president of global affairs at Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, said Trump’s accounts will be reinstated “in the coming weeks” and come with “new guardrails in place to deter repeat offenses.”

Those guardrails will include “heightened penalties for repeat offenses — penalties which will apply to other public figures whose accounts are reinstated from suspensions related to civil unrest under our updated protocol. In the event that Mr. Trump posts further violating content, the content will be removed and he will be suspended for between one month and two years, depending on the severity of the violation,” Clegg said on the company’s website.

Pelosis Sold Google Stock Just Before DOJ Announced Antitrust Lawsuit

Democratic California Rep. Nancy Pelosi and her husband, Paul, unloaded more than $1.5 million in Alphabet stock one month before the Department of Justice announced an antitrust lawsuit against the tech giant.

The Pelosis sold 30,000 shares of Alphabet, the holding company for Google and several other firms, on Dec. 20, 21, and 28. They received between $1.5 million and $3 million for the total sale, netting capital gains of more than $600, according to a financial disclosure form Pelosi, filed on Jan. 12. The DOJ announced its lawsuit against Alphabet on Tuesday.

Pelosi’s office did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller’s request for comment on the matter.

The DOJ’s lawsuit alleges that Google has systematically bought out competitors and used its advertising to promote its own products. Alphabet stock dropped $2.71 on Tuesday, but has risen $6.04 since Pelosi sold her stock. (Read more from “Pelosis Sold Google Stock Just Before DOJ Announced Antitrust Lawsuit” HERE)

Multiple Reports Say White House Hid Classified Doc Scandal

Multiple reports from establishment media outlets indicate the White House and the Justice Department agreed to hide President Joe Biden’s classified document scandal from the American public, despite claims of transparency after it was leaked to the press.

At least three times the establishment media reported that Biden and the DOJ agreed to hide the scandal from public view with likely had no plans to disclose it until the scandal was leaked to CBS News on January 9, weeks after the initial trove was found by Biden’s personal lawyers November 2.

White House officials are reportedly suspicious about how Biden’s classified document scandal was leaked to the press after only a select group of White House and DOJ officials knew about the violation.

The latest report of the alleged coverup came Wednesday from the New York Times, which recounted its previous reporting and the initial report by the Washington Post on January 19.

“Democratic allies are increasingly frustrated by a White House that hid the discovery of secret documents from the public for two months and, even once it was reported, provided only partial information, then declared the search complete only to have more papers turn up,” the Times reported. “They promptly contacted the authorities [DOJ] after the documents were found and have sought to work collaboratively to find any other stray papers.” (Read more from “Multiple Reports Say White House Hid Classified Doc Scandal” HERE)

Why Is Kamala So Silent Regarding President Biden’s Document Scandal?

Vice President Kamala Harris has been eerily quiet about President Joe Biden’s classified document scandal, causing at least some Republicans to believe Harris could be angling to push Biden out of the way for a shot at the Oval Office.

Though Harris has delivered several public statements since the scandal was leaked to the press on January 9, she has neither supported Biden nor condemned any wrongdoing. Her public comments during this timeframe have largely remained on script, ranging from global warming, Venn diagrams, electricity, school buses, and the southern border invasion.

The communications strategy appears noticeably different from her attacks on former President Donald Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified materials. In August, Harris slammed Trump as “irresponsible” for questioning the FBI’s raid of Mar-a-Lago.

“It’s just highly irresponsible of anyone who calls themselves a leader and certainly anyone who represents the United States of America to engage in rhetoric for the sake of some political objective that can result in harm to law enforcement officers and agents,” Harris said.

Former Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), the onetime chair of the House Intelligence Committee from 2015 to 2019 and now the CEO of Trump’s Truth Social social media platform, told Breitbart News that Harris’ silence suggests her intention to replace Biden as president.

Secret’s Out: Key Development on Biden Visitor Logs in Documents Case

The Secret Service is “gathering” information on the heels of Republican senators demanding the agency turn over a list of “all individuals” who have visited locations where President Joe Biden’s classified documents have been found, the agency told the Washington Examiner.

Sens. Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson wrote to the Secret Service on Monday in a letter first obtained by the Washington Examiner and requested the visitor logs. Now, the Secret Service said it is evaluating that letter and is “currently in the process of gathering” various information, as well as “working through appropriate channels” to locate what “may be responsive to Congressional inquiries.”

“We are in receipt of Senator Grassley’s letter and it is currently is being reviewed,” said Anthony Guglielmi, a spokesman for the Secret Service, adding that the agency doesn’t maintain “formal and comprehensive visitor logs for protectee residences.”

“What I mean by that is there is not a system of validated visitor logs like you find at the White House or other government facilities that fall under the Presidential Records Act,” he continued in an email to the Washington Examiner on Wednesday morning.
