/0 Comments/in , /by

Air Force Academy football player Hunter Brown, 21, died after suffering a medical emergency on campus.

The academy announced Brown was leaving his dorm and heading to class when he collapsed Monday. First responders were unsuccessful in their life-saving attempts.

“Hunter was a standout offensive lineman on the Falcon football team and was well-respected in his squadron,” said Lt. Gen. Richard Clark, U.S. Air Force Academy superintendent. “The entire U.S. Air Force Academy mourns his loss, and our hearts and condolences are with his family, his squadron, and all who were touched by this incredible young man.”

Brown, a sophomore center for the Air Force Falcons, was assigned to Cadet Squadron 16 and was majoring in management with a minor in French. (Read more from “Air Force Football Player Dies at Age 21 After ‘Medical Emergency’” HERE)

Former Democratic Party Chair Sentenced to 22 Months in Prison

/0 Comments/in , /by

A former Louisiana State Senator and chair of the state’s Democrat Party was sentenced to 22 months in prison Wednesday after pleading guilty to federal wire fraud.

Karen Carter Peterson made headlines in April 2022 when she resigned from the Louisiana state senate after twenty-two years, citing her poor mental health and a gambling addiction.

Months later, an August federal probe accused Peterson of stealing campaign funds to gamble with. The 53-year-old admitted she stole over $140,000 from her 2019 reelection campaign and the Louisiana Democrat party’s funding to fuel her addiction.

Peterson had served for twenty-two years in the Louisiana legislature and chaired the state’s Democrat party from 2012-2020. Her lawyers blamed her gambling problem on a “diminished mental capacity,” and pushed for U.S. District Judge Sarah Vance to keep her out of prison because of this, according to NOLA News.

Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders Bans ‘Latinx’ From Arkansas Government Documents

/0 Comments/in , /by

Arkansas Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders will prohibit the use of the term “Latinx” in government documents through an executive order.

Sanders, who was sworn in as the first female governor of Arkansas on Tuesday, justified the ban of the word “Latinx” in government documents and name titles by citing a Pew Research poll that found only 3% of American Latinos and Hispanics used the term to describe themselves.

“Ethnically insensitive and pejorative language has no place in official government documents or government employee titles,” Sanders’ executive order states. “The government has a responsibility to respect its citizens and use ethnically appropriate language, particularly when referring to ethnic minorities.”

Progressive groups and some politicians have pushed the term “Latinx” in recent years as a gender-neutral alternative to the Spanish words Latina and Latino.

Sanders noted in the executive order that the Real Academia Española, a Madrid-based institution that serves as a linguistic guide for Spanish, officially rejects the use of “x” to replace “o” and “a” as a way to identify gender in the language.

New FBI Rulebook Shows It Collaborated With CIA and NSA to Spy on Americans

/0 Comments/in , /by

With the online publication of its 2021 Domestic Investigations and Operations Guide, the FBI confirmed in a heavily redacted section 20.2 that it collaborates with the NSA and CIA to spy on Americans, even if those Americans have not committed any crimes and are not under any kind of court order.

FBI surveillance of Americans includes:

— Domestic FBI probes, called “assessments,” for which the bureau solicits data from the CIA and NSA so as to prevent federal crimes and national security threats.

— Probe criteria, mainly an “authorized purpose” and clear objective, that do not require the possession of a court warrant.

White House Refuses to Address Why It Didn’t Publicly Disclose Biden Classified Documents Sooner

/0 Comments/in , /by

The White House on Wednesday refused to answer questions about why it did not publicly disclose for two months that classified government documents had been found in a private university office in Washington that was used by President Biden.

The documents were discovered on Nov. 2, just six days before the midterm elections, but the matter only became public Monday when uncovered by CBS News.

At a contentious daily press briefing, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stonewalled against a barrage of questions about the delay.

“I’m not going to get into details. I’m not going to get beyond what the president shared yesterday,” Ms. Jean-Pierre said, referring reporters to a statement released by the White House Counsel’s Office on Monday.

Ms. Jean-Pierre insisted the president spoke about the discovery “in detail,” but reporters weren’t having it, pushing back on her repeated refusal to answer questions. (Read more from “White House Refuses to Address Why It Didn’t Publicly Disclose Biden Classified Documents Sooner” HERE)

A ‘Cover-Up’: Republicans Ask Why Discovery of Classified Biden Documents Were Not Revealed Until AFTER the Midterms; GOP Rep.: : Impeach Joe Biden for Mishandling Classified Documents, ‘Vice Presidents Cannot Declassify Docs’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Mail. Republicans on Tuesday demanded to know why the fact President Joe Biden had classified documents from when he was vice president at his think tank wasn’t revealed until after the midterm elections with one calling it a ‘cover up.’

‘When you cover up something before an election,’ Republican Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska told reporters on Capitol Hill Tuesday morning ‘that is probably a point that needs to be highlighted.’ . . .

The White House announced late Monday that Biden’s lawyers discovered 10 classified documents in his former office at a Washington think tank on November 2.

That was six days before the midterm election, where Republicans won control of the House but not by the landslide many had predicted.

The announcement of such a discovery likely would have a been a political explosion in the election akin to the FBI announcing in 2016, eleven days before the election, the discovery of additional Hillary Clinton emails.

Marjorie Taylor Greene: Impeach Joe Biden for Mishandling Classified Documents, ‘Vice Presidents Cannot Declassify Docs’

By Breitbart. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said President Joe Biden should be impeached for mishandling classified documents reportedly related to Ukraine and Iran dated between 2013 and 2016.

Greene explained the stark difference in Biden’s mishandling of documents compared to the alleged claim that former President Donald Trump safely stored documents at Mar-a-Lago.

“This is a very serious situation. Vice presidents cannot declassify documents. And the fact that Joe Biden is in possession of classified documents when he was vice president, signals we need to have a serious investigation into this,” Greene told C-Span.

“There is a true two tier justice system stemming from the department of justice in the way President Trump has been treated — who is allowed to classify and declassify documents. Presidents can do that,” she said.

“I’ll echo again, impeach Biden,” she added. (Read more from “Marjorie Taylor Greene: Impeach Joe Biden for Mishandling Classified Documents, ‘Vice Presidents Cannot Declassify Docs’” HERE)

Mexican President Amlo Praises Biden for Halting Border Wall: ‘Thank You’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) thanked President Joe Biden for halting the construction of border wall along the United States-Mexico border at a North American summit on Tuesday.

Alongside Biden and Canada’s Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, AMLO praised Biden’s immediate halt to border wall construction along the southern border. The day after taking office, Biden signed an executive order that stopped all wall construction that had been underway by former President Trump.

“You, President Biden, you are the first president of the United States in a very long time that has not built, not even one meter, of wall,” AMLO said during remarks at the summit. “In that, we thank you for that sir. Although some might not like it, although the conservatives don’t like it.” (Read more from “Mexican President Amlo Praises Biden for Halting Border Wall: ‘Thank You’” HERE)

Biden Has History With US Attorney Tapped to Probe Classified Documents Scandal

/0 Comments/in , /by

U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois John Lausch will be leading the investigation of classified documents found at the University of Pennsylvania’s Penn Biden Center, nearly two years after President Biden nearly fired him.

Lausch has been in office since 2017 when he was appointed by then-President Donald Trump. When Biden took office in early 2021, it was reported that the president had plans to fire him, even though the Senate had confirmed him unanimously. The news of the planned termination drew criticism from both parties, as both Democratic Illinois Senators Dick Durbin and Tammy Duckworth expressed their dismay.

“While we agree with the Biden Administration’s criminal justice agenda, we are disappointed with the decision to terminate U.S. Attorney Lausch without consulting us,” the two senators from Lausch’s home state said in a joint statement. “In 2017, our non-partisan screening committee gave its support for Mr. Lausch to serve in this position, and the Senate confirmed him unanimously.”

Durbin and Duckworth added that there was precedent for individuals in Lausch’s position to stay in office after a new administration took over “to conclude sensitive investigations.” They urged Biden to at least let Lausch stay on until a replacement was confirmed.

Deep State-Pawn Rep. Dan Crenshaw Loses Chairmanship After Calling Anti-McCarthy Gopers ‘Terrorists’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Dan Crenshaw, one of the House GOP’s most prominent figures, was denied the chairmanship of the chamber’s Homeland Security Committee Monday in favor of a member of the right-wing House Freedom Caucus — days after Crenshaw called opponents of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy “terrorists.”

Rep. Mark Green (R-Tenn.), will instead lead the panel that provides oversight over the Department of Homeland Security – and handles issues related to illegal immigration and terrorism.

Crenshaw raised the ire of his colleagues during the prolonged floor fight for speaker last week when he raged against a group of around 20 Freedom Caucus members who withheld their votes from McCarthy until they could extract concessions on the way the 118th Congress was run.

“They are enemies now,” Crenshaw told CNN of the holdouts following a heated closed-door GOP conference meeting Tuesday. “They have made it clear that they prefer a Democrat agenda than a Republican one.”

The same day, Crenshaw told Fox News Radio host Guy Benson of the rebels: “We cannot let the terrorists win.” (Read more from “Deep State-Pawn Rep. Dan Crenshaw Loses Chairmanship After Calling Anti-McCarthy Gopers ‘Terrorists’” HERE)
