Jared Kushner Reacts to FBI Mar-a-Lago Raid, Justice Dept. Probe

Jared Kushner made his first comments on the FBI search of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate over the weekend, saying the raid was a product of Trump’s enemies “over pursuing” him.

Kushner, the 45th president’s son-in-law who served as a senior White House adviser, offered his thoughts on the shocking raid of the Palm Beach, Fla., resort while appearing on Fox News’ Life, Liberty & Levin to promote his new book, Breaking History. Host and conservative commentator Mark Levin asked Kushner to discuss the unprecedented incident, which has catapulted his father-in-law back into the headlines as he prepares to mount a 2024 presidential bid.

“In the way that he drives his enemies so crazy, they always over pursue him and make mistakes in trying to get him,” Kushner told Levin. “And that’s basically what happened here. But, you know, what’s happening now is the same thing being done by the same people in the same way. They’re leaking to the same sources. They’re manufacturing fabulous claims that then get debunked, you know, shortly thereafter.”

“His fiercest critics really accuse him of breaking norms,” he continued. “But what we’re seeing here and what we’ve seen constantly over time, is that they do that exact thing. They break all the norms in order to try to get Trump.” (Read more from “Jared Kushner Reacts to FBI Mar-a-Lago Raid, Justice Dept. Probe” HERE)

Here’s What Trump’s Doing Next Following the ‘Illegal’ FBI Raid

By Breitbart. Former President Donald Trump announced he will file a Fourth Amendment unlawful search and seizure motion over the FBI’s “illegal” raid on Mar-a-Lago in a post made on TRUTH Social on Friday.

“A major motion pertaining to the Fourth Amendment will soon be filed concerning the illegal Break-In of my home, Mar-a-Lago, right before the ever important Mid-Term Elections,” Trump posted.

The former President said the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago violated his rights, “together with the rights of all Americans,” and added that it is part of a continued witch hunt against him. Trump added:

My rights, together with the rights of all Americans, have been violated at a level rarely seen before in our Country. Remember, they even spied on my campaign. The greatest Witch Hunt in USA history has been going on for six years, with no consequences to the scammers. It should not be allowed to continue!

Trump’s upcoming Fourth Amendment motion is the latest development in the public feud between him and the FBI after the Mar-a-Lago raid earlier this month.

Trump Lawyer Says FBI Agents’ Identities Should Be Made Public

By Independent UK, One of the attorneys representing Donald Trump in the wake of the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago has said that CCTV from the search should be released and the agents who carried it out identified – this despite a surge in violent threats against law enforcement agents and justice officials from outraged Trump supporters.

Judge Bruce Reinhart, who signed the search warrant for the raid, says he is inclined to partially release the document as media organisations have requested. He will make a final decision next week after the redactions have been made. (Read more from “Trump Lawyer Says FBI Agents’ Identities Should Be Made Public” HERE)

CDC Recommends Masking to Stop Monkeypox Despite Overwhelming Evidence It Spreads Through Gay Sex

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a study Friday suggesting that people wear masks to protect themselves from monkeypox despite growing evidence the virus is transmitted sexually.

The CDC’s Friday Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), its internal journal, included research on the spread of monkeypox via contaminated surfaces. Researchers in Utah sampled 30 different samples from the home of two monkeypox patients, and found that 21 of the surfaces yielded positive real-time PCR results, but none tested positive for viral cultures.

Still, despite the lack of live virus found in the samples, the paper still warns that monkeypox can spread through surface contact. The agency also recommends wearing masks at the bottom of the paper, even though little evidence has emerged that monkeypox is an airborne virus.

The CDC’s own website doesn’t list airborne transmission as a way monkeypox spreads. The Santa Clara County, California, Health Department is telling the public that monkeypox isn’t airborne. Reuters has fact-checked claims that the CDC believes monkeypox is airborne as false.

GOP Rep.: Power Corrupted Mike Pompeo – No Longer Has a ‘Moral Center’

Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) said Friday on CNN’s “The Lead” that former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo no longer has a moral center.

Discussing his interview with the House Select Committee investigating January 6, 2021 Thursday on Fox News, Pompeo said, “They were chasing witches, right? They were looking for discussions about the 25th Amendment, discussions that I never seriously undertook with any of my counterparts. They were looking to build a storyline, the conclusion of which was already written.” (Read more from “Power Corrupted Mike Pompeo – No Longer Has a ‘Moral Center’” HERE)

Here’s What the White House Wants You to Believe About Falling Gas Prices

The next time you stop at a gas station and spend almost half your paycheck filling up your tank, thank Mr. President Joe Biden because, according to him, it’s almost as if you’re getting a $100 monthly raise.

In an email sent out to reporters by White House staff, the Biden administration is claiming that Americans should interpret the falling price of fuel as a monthly raise.

Titled in the subject line as “ICYMI: America Just Got A $100-A-Month Raise,” the email says, “President Biden has taken decisive action to lower prices at the pump, and the current drop in gas prices is the fastest decline in over a decade… thanks to that decline, Americans are collectively spending around $400 million less each day than they would if gas prices had stayed at their peak.”

The email also includes a link to a CNN story that dropped at the same time as the email, with the first line reading, “Next time you stop at a gas station, think of it as a $100-a-month tax cut. Or a maybe $100-a-month raise.”

The left-wing news outlet boldly claims that the “steady drop in gas prices” turned into an “unexpected form of economic stimulus.” (Read more from “Here’s What the White House Wants You to Believe About Falling Gas Prices” HERE)

Border Patrol Arrests Illegal Alien Who Raped a Toddler

Border Patrol agents have apprehended several serious child sex offenders attempting to illegally enter the United States in recent months, including an illegal immigrant who was previously convicted of raping a child under the age of four.

Miguel Vargas Mendoza, 33, was arrested by agents in Yuma, Arizona, on Tuesday after attempting to cross the border illegally. Fox News reports that Mendoza, a Mexican national, had prior convictions for drug possession and having sex with a child three years or younger, as well as willful cruelty to a child.

Fox reported that he is one of several child sex offenders who have been apprehended by Border Patrol as record levels of illegal immigration continue unabated under President Joe Biden’s policies.

In the current fiscal year, Border Patrol agents have encountered 9,381 noncitizens with criminal convictions among a record 1.82 million arrests made, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. In July, there were a record 199,976 encounters, with 166,792 unique encounters. Two-thirds of those encountered were single adults, and while the numbers dipped slightly compared to June, CBP is still on track to make a record 2 million arrests by the end of the fiscal year on Sept. 30.

School Board Defies Protesters, Retains Ban on Pride Flags, Preferred Pronouns

A Wisconsin school district held firm against protesters, upholding a ban on displaying LGBTQ or Black Lives Matter flags in classrooms or using preferred pronouns in school-related emails.

In the face of opposition from numerous speakers Tuesday night at a school board hearing, the board retained its position.

“We live in a world where politics are highlighted, and it puts people in uncomfortable positions,” Kettle Moraine School District Superintendent Stephen Plum stated.

In late July, Plum said legal analysis had shown the policy of the district did indeed prohibit political or religious messaging, as well as the use of one’s pronouns, in classrooms, staff emails and signatures, USA Today reported.

“The prohibition is based on Kettle Moraine School District’s decade-old policy that bans ‘partisan politics, sectarian religious views, or selfish propaganda,’” CNN noted. (Read more from “School Board Defies Protesters, Retains Ban on Pride Flags, Preferred Pronouns” HERE)

Disgusting: Yale Professor Ripped for Helping Toddlers With ‘Gender Journey’

A Yale professor has come under fire over a video in which she describes helping children as young as 3 years old with their “gender journey.”

Dr. Christy Olezeski, who co-founded the Yale Pediatric Gender Program, was filmed saying she helps treat those questioning their gender and also provides guidance on “medical intervention.”

“I am the director of the Yale gender program, which is an interdisciplinary program working with gender-expansive individuals 3 to 25 and their families,” Olezeski said in the clip posted on Yale University’s YouTube page.

“We help individuals who are questioning their gender identity or who identify as transgender or non-binary, and we help them with their gender journey.”

Olezeski added that the program helps individuals think “through the risks and benefits of medical intervention, starting medical intervention and also building supports around them.” (Read more from “Disgusting: Yale Professor Ripped for Helping Toddlers With ‘Gender Journey'” gab HERE.” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>HERE)

DHS Is Building a $500,000 Taxpayer-Funded Wall at Biden’s Delaware Beach House

President Biden may oppose building a wall along the U.S.’s southern border, but he’s currently spending nearly $500,000 of taxpayers’ money to construct a barrier around his vacation property at Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

In September 2021, the Department of Homeland Security doled out a $455,000 contract to a Sussex County, Delaware, construction company to build a fence around the president’s “Summer White House,” according to USAspending.gov, an online database that tracks government spending.

Construction began last September and was expected to be completed by the end of 2021. However, unknown delays have pushed the expected completion date to June 6, 2023, and ballooned costs to $490,324.

Mr. Biden’s critics mocked the beach house wall.

“So walls work at Joe Biden’s beach house but not the Southern border?” asked Rep. Jim Jordan, Ohio Republican, wrote on Twitter. (Read more from “DHS Is Building a $500,000 Taxpayer-Funded Wall at Biden’s Delaware Beach House” HERE)

Trump Raid Judge’s Order Helps DOJ Drag Out Political Persecution of Its Biggest Foe

The affidavit used to obtain a warrant to search former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home will be unsealed, and the Department of Justice must justify every redaction it seeks to make to the material, Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart ruled yesterday. While Thursday’s decision represents a victory for the media outlets seeking access to the documents, whether the public sees anything of substance in the short term remains to be seen.

Following the unprecedented raid on the former president and de facto leader of the Republican Party, the Department of Justice agreed to release the search warrant and the accompanying attachments that described the places to be searched and identified the items to be seized. The government also filed an unsealed, but redacted, copy of the property receipt list, and yesterday, with the government’s agreement, the court unsealed the criminal cover sheet, the government’s motion to seal the search warrant, and the court’s order sealing the warrant and related materials.

The Department of Justice, however, refused to unseal the search warrant affidavit used to obtain the search warrant, even as multiple media outlets argued in motions that they had a First Amendment right to access that material. Thursday afternoon, Reinhart heard oral argument on the consolidated motions and quickly made clear he believed some portions of the affidavit needed to be unsealed.

“On my initial careful review … there are portions of it that can be unsealed,” Reinhart told the attorneys. Then, following arguments, the court issued an order finding “that on the present record the Government has not met its burden of showing that the entire affidavit should remain sealed.” The court further directed the government to file under seal, by Thursday, August 25, 2022, “its proposed redactions along with a legal memorandum setting forth the justification for the proposed redactions.” (Read more from “Trump Raid Judge’s Order Helps DOJ Drag Out Political Persecution of Its Biggest Foe” HERE)
