Of Course It Was! The Washington Post Deletes Tweet After Suggesting FBI Raid Was Politically Motivated

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The Washington Post announced Wednesday they deleted a tweet containing a story that suggested, in its initial headline, the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) raid on Mar-a-Lago was politically motivated.

The story’s original headline read “Garland vowed to depoliticize Justice. Then the FBI searched Mar-a-Lago,” according to the Post’s since-deleted tweet. The piece described the FBI’s raid as “highly unusual” and dove into the U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland and Department of Justice’s (DOJ) alleged political motivations regarding the search.

The Post later edited the story’s headline to: “FBI’s search of Mar-a-Lago lands Merrick Garland in a political firestorm.” The outlet deleted the tweet containing the original headline.

“Clarification: A previous tweet of this story had a headline that has changed after publishing. We’ve deleted the tweet,” The Post said.

IRS Job Page Removed After Alarming Description of the Special Agent Position Got Exposed

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Again, there’s that long-running joke that we don’t have a secret police force or an American version of the Schutzstaffel because the Internal Revenue Service exists. Of all agencies in the government, this one probably has the most accurate and up-to-date files on every taxpayer, which is no surprise. It was seen as the most hated agency in America for legitimate purposes, though the FBI and DOJ might have supplanted them given the recent raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago.

Still, the IRS becoming secret police might no longer be a joke. The page was taken down for problematic copy regarding the special agent positions, but screenshots were taken. It read fine regarding the hours, being open to working on weekends, and other rudimentary line items of federal employment. Where most people’s eyes fell out of their sockets should have occurred when it also said that one must be comfortable carrying a firearm and, if necessary, use deadly force.

Democrats Can’t Hide Their Concern About Joe Biden’s Health

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s bad public gaffes is nothing new. In fact, America is becoming seemingly used to seeing the leader of the U.S. forget where is or what he’s saying, so much so that questions are raised when he actually makes it through a speech without embarrassing his party.

In a new Issues & Insights/TIPP analysis survey, a vast amount of Democrats are worried about Biden’s mental health.

39 percent of Democrats are concerned Biden’s cognitive skills aren’t in tact enough to carry him to the end of presidential term.

The poll noted that despite this percentage not being the majority, it “is still significantly high.”

On the contrary, 82 percent of Republicans and 56 percent of Independents are uneasy with the idea of Biden running the country due to his mental health. (Read more from “Democrats Can’t Hide Their Concern About Joe Biden’s Health” HERE)

Huh? Biden Boasts ‘Zero Inflation’ — But Food and Rent Soar!

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden boasted Wednesday that the United States economy experienced zero inflation in the month of July, even though costs of goods and services are still up 8.5 percent from the previous year.

“I just want to say a number. Zero. Today we received news that our economy had zero inflation in the month of July,” Biden boasted during a speech at the White House.

Inflation of all consumer prices in July was flat from the previous month, thanks to a drop in the price of gasoline from June’s record highs and a sharp decrease in the cost of airfare. . .

But inflation at the grocery store continues to rise. Prices were up 1.3 percent compared with a month earlier and 13.1 percent compared with a year ago.

The cost of rent also increased by 0.7 percent from the previous month; 6.3 percent from the previous year. (Read more from “Huh? Biden Boasts ‘Zero Inflation’ — But Food and Rent Soar!” HERE)

Former NYPD Commissioner Says Democrats May Try to Orchestrate Trump’s ‘Assassination’ After FBI Raid; Trump Disqualified From Holding Office?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Mediaite. Former NYPD commissioner Bernard Kerik said Monday he is worried Democrats might try to assassinate former President Donald Trump. . .

The Department of Justice has not commented publicly on the raid, but Kerik claimed on Newsmax TV he is afraid for Trump’s life.

Kerik joined The Balance with host Eric Bolling, where he said he feels Trump is in grave danger – not only from politically-motivated prosecution – but from the threat of death. He said:

If you remember back in 2016, right before he got elected, I was in Washington D.C. I was at a couple of different social events, and I hear people talking, they said the Democrats want this guy so bad that they wouldn’t put assassination behind it. And I’m gonna tell you something. they’ve tried impeachment, they’ve tried another impeachment, they’ve tried one investigation after another.

This is about one thing: this is about stopping him from running in 2024. And I’m gonna tell you something, I’m not into conspiracies, I’m not into anti-government rhetoric. This is the first time in my lifetime that I would say I am deathly afraid for Donald Trump. I would not put assassination behind these people.

Trump Disqualified From Holding Office? Clinton-Linked Lawyer Points to US Code After FBI Raid

By Washington Examiner. With news of the FBI raiding Mar-a-Lago, buzz quickly bubbled up Monday evening about whether former President Donald Trump could be disqualified from holding office again.

The FBI search of the Florida resort was related to Trump’s handling of presidential records, including classified documents, after leaving office, sources told CNN. The search warrant was connected to the National Archives, a senior government official told NBC News.

Such reporting had Marc Elias, the top lawyer for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign who has drawn scrutiny for his role in pushing Trump-Russia collusion claims, pointing to U.S. Code Title 18, Section 2071. “The media is missing the really, really big reason why the raid today is a potential blockbuster in American politics,” Elias said in a tweet.

The first subsection says: “Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.” (Read more from “Trump Disqualified From Holding Office?

Trump Critics Demand People Stop Using One Word to Describe FBI Search of Mar-A-Lago

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Donald Trump’s critics are demanding that people stop referring to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) search of his home in Mar-a-Lago as a “raid.”

The FBI searched Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence Monday, and many in the media have speculated that the search was related to an FBI investigation of his possible mishandling of White House documents, some of which ended up in the Florida residence. Trump described the search as a raid in his Monday evening statement, but his critics are now insisting that the term shouldn’t be used since the federal agents entering his home had a warrant.

Where’s Mitch? McConnell Remains Silent on FBI Raid at Donald Trump’s Mar-A-Lago

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has remained silent on the FBI raid of former President Donald Trump’s estate at Mar-A-Lago.

McConnell did not respond to Breitbart News’s request for comment on the shocking incident, nor has he released a public statement about the historic raid at the time of publication.

The GOP leader has not commented or demonstrated concern about this historic precedent at a time when Trump may mount a comeback campaign against President Joe Biden in 2024.

Three GOP senators in leadership positions have issued public statements condemning the raid, including Senate Republican Conference chair John Barrasso (R-WY), National Republican Senatorial Committee chair Rick Scott (R-FL), and Senate Republican Conference vice chair Joni Ernst (R-IA).

“When Republicans retake the majority in the Senate, there will be a thorough & aggressive investigation into the @FBI’s raid of Mar-a-Lago,” Scott tweeted. “Everything needs to be on the table for AG Garland, including impeachment if he doesn’t come out TODAY & explain what happened.” (Read more from “Where’s Mitch?

Judge Who OK’d Mar-A-Lago Raid Obama Donor Once Linked to Jeffrey Epstein

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Florida federal magistrate judge who signed off on a search warrant authorizing the FBI raid of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort donated to Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign — months after he left the local US Attorney’s office to rep employees of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein who had received immunity in the long-running sex-trafficking investigation of the financier.

Sources tell The Post that Judge Bruce Reinhart approved the warrant that enabled federal agents to converge on the palatial South Florida estate on Monday in what Trump called an “unannounced raid on my home.”

Reinhart was elevated to magistrate judge in March 2018 after 10 years in private practice. That November, the Miami Herald reported that he had represented several of Epstein’s employees — including, by Reinhart’s own admission to the outlet, Epstein’s pilots; his scheduler, Sarah Kellen; and Nadia Marcinkova, who Epstein once reportedly described as his “Yugoslavian sex slave.”

Kellen and Marcinkova were among Epstein’s lieutenants who were granted immunity as part of a controversial 2007 deal with federal prosecutors that allowed the pervert to plead guilty to state charges rather than federal crimes. Epstein wound up serving just 13 months in county jail and was granted work release.

According to the Herald, which cited court documents, Reinhart resigned from the South Florida US Attorney’s Office effective on New Year’s Day 2008 and went to work for Epstein’s cohorts the following day.

FBI Doubles Down: Key GOP Congressman’s Phone Seized

/0 Comments/in , /by

One day after the FBI raided former President Donald Trump’s Mar-A-Lago, agents confronted U.S. Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) and seized his cell phone while the congressman was at an airport with his family. Three FBI agents approached Perry, handed over a warrant for his cell phone, and then seized the mobile device — apparently without previously trying to contact his attorney.

In a statement, Perry slammed the seizure and the Biden administration’s politicization of the Justice Department. “This morning, while traveling with my family, 3 FBI agents visited me and seized my cell phone,” Perry recounted. “They made no attempt to contact my lawyer, who would have made arrangements for them to have my phone if that was their wish.”

“I’m outraged — though not surprised — that the FBI under the direction of Merrick Garland’s DOJ, would seize the phone of a sitting Member of Congress,” Rep. Perry continued. “My phone contains info about my legislative and political activities, and personal/private discussions with my wife, family, constituents, and friends. None of this is the government’s business,” he added.

Perry, a close ally of Trump, continued by connecting his run-in with the FBI to the raid on Mar-A-Lago, saying the “DOJ chose this unnecessary and aggressive action instead of simply contacting my attorneys,” adding that “these kinds of banana republic tactics should concern every Citizen — especially considering the decision before Congress this week to hire 87,000 new IRS agents to further persecute law-abiding Citizens.” (Read more from “FBI Doubles Down: Key GOP Congressman’s Phone Seized” HERE)

Report: Police Identify Suspect in Muslim Killings as Fellow Muslim

/0 Comments/in , /by

Police have identified the man arrested in two of a string of killings of Muslim men in the past year — another Muslim.

Muhammad Syed, 51, has reportedly been charged with murder in the deaths of two Muslim men in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

According to local Muslim leaders cited in multiple news outlets, the killings are believed to be motivated by inter-Islam sectarian conflict.

Ahmad Assed, the president of the Islamic Center of New Mexico, told the New York Times that authorities had informed him that the suspect was a Sunni, and was enraged over his daughter marrying a Shiite.

“The offender knew the victims to some extent, and an interpersonal conflict may have led to the shootings,” police wrote in a press release cited by the Daily Beast. (Read more from “Report: Police Identify Suspect in Muslim Killings as Fellow Muslim” HERE)
