Bombshell: About Those FBI Informants Concerning Jan. 6…

/0 Comments/in , , /by

While we’ve all been heavily focused on the election, the NY Times dropped an important story about Jan. 6 that many didn’t notice.

Remember when Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) grilled an FBI official about FBI or confidential human sources (informants) who may have been involved or had knowledge about Jan. 6?

Turns out that one of the top people in the Oathkeepers — their vice president — was an FBI informant, according to the NY Times.

An F.B.I. informant who was embedded for months in the inner circle of Stewart Rhodes, the leader of the Oath Keepers militia, is likely to testify as a defense witness at the seditious conspiracy trial of Mr. Rhodes in connection with the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The informant, Greg McWhirter, served as the Oath Keepers’ vice president but was secretly reporting to the F.B.I. about the group’s activities in the weeks and months leading up to the Capitol attack, according to two people familiar with the matter.

WATCH: Tucker Thinks He Knows Why the Midterms Went So Wrong for Republicans

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Fox News’s Tucker Carlson gave his theory on Wednesday for why Republicans had such a disappointing midterm election despite a favorable landscape.

While plenty have made the case that candidate quality issues, suburban women, abortion, or former President Trump were to blame, Carlson suggested something else entirely.

“[T]he mechanics of an election. They matter. In fact, they matter sometimes more than any individual running in the election. The way people vote makes a big difference to the outcome…”

He noted the Pennsylvania Senate race was a perfect example.

Two and a half years ago, the last administration, its Republican allies in Congress, watched passively, seemingly in glassy eyed sedation as the Democratic Party used the pretext of COVID to rewrite election laws around the country in order to get its own candidates into office. They didn’t do it by accident. They knew what they were doing. Last night those laws, many of which are still on the books, paid off generously. John Fetterman bombed in his one public debate. You saw it. He humiliated himself. He made a mockery of the election, but it didn’t matter by that point.

Thanks to early voting, Fetterman’s margin was already in the bank. Nearly 70% of Democrats had voted early in the Pennsylvania races. Only 20% of Republicans did. It’s over, but it doesn’t need to be repeated. These are fixable problems. You can get your message out. You can force the other side if you try hard enough to agree on fair election rules, but you can’t do any of that unless you acknowledge these problems exist.

Trump Reacts to Midterm Results

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. Former President Donald Trump celebrated the outcome of the 2022 midterms late Tuesday night, posting that it was “a great evening,” and congratulating winning Republican candidates.

“174 wins and 9 losses, A GREAT EVENING, and the Fake News Media, together with their partner in crime, the Democrats, are doing everything possible to play it down. Amazing job by some really fantastic candidates!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The Republican Party scored several notable victories on Election Day, including a strong performance from Ohio Senator-elect JD Vance against Democrat Tim Ryan. Former White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders won the Arkansas gubernatorial race, becoming the first woman to do so, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis defeated Democrat Charlie Crist by nearly 20 points.

Republicans still have a chance to win the Senate and the House, but the predicted “red wave” did not materialize in either chamber. The GOP currently stands at 47 seats in the Senate with leads in Wisconsin and Nevada and a runoff between two Republican candidates in Alaska, according to the Associated Press. To get to a majority, Republicans would need to win in either Georgia, where Democratic incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock is likely headed to a runoff against Republican challenger Herschel Walker, or in Arizona, where as of late Wednesday morning, The New York Times showed the race leaning toward Democratic incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly. (Read more from “Trump Reacts to Midterm Results” HERE)

‘Titanic Clash’ Brewing Between Trump and Desantis After Midterm Results, Predicts Brexit’s Nigel Farage

By Breitbart. Brexit leader Nigel Farage predicted that a “titanic clash” is brewing between Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, the two leading contenders for the Republican nomination for President in 2024.

Speaking from the mid-term battleground state of Arizona on Wednesday morning, Nigel Farage said that while Republican gains in Congress will limit President Biden’s ability to govern, the failure of a so-called ‘Red Wave’ to materialise will likely elevate Ron DeSantis in the eyes of conservative voters as it will not provide the “huge springboard” Donald Trump had hoped for before his expected announcement of his intention to run for president again.

The veteran political campaigner turned GB News host said that discussions “within the Republican party as to whether they should pick Trump or DeSantis is going to reach fever pitch, in my opinion, over the next few weeks, and I say that as a friend of Donald Trump.” (Read more from “‘Titanic Clash’ Brewing Between Trump and Desantis After Midterm Results, Predicts Brexit’s Nigel Farage” HERE)

Trump Attacks Desantis: I Got More Votes Than Him, Needs to Be ‘More Gracious’ to Me. I Won His Primary.

By Daily Wire. Former President Donald Trump (R) tried to downplay Florida Governor Ron DeSantis‘ (R) dominant election victory on Tuesday night, claiming that his victory in 2020 in Florida was more impressive than DeSantis’ victory last night, even though facts do not support that notion.

“Now that the Election in Florida is over, and everything went quite well, shouldn’t it be said that in 2020, I got 1.1 Million more votes in Florida than Ron D got this year, 5.7 Million to 4.6 Million?” Trump said on social media. “Just asking?”

It impossible to compare the turnout for midterm elections to the turnout for presidential elections because the turnout for presidential elections is always higher. What can be compared, though, is the margin of victory.

In 2020, Trump won the state by 3.3 points or 371,686 votes. DeSantis won the state last night by 19.4 points or 1,507,081 votes. (Read more from “Trump Attacks DeSantis: I Got More Votes Than Him, Needs to Be ‘More Gracious’ to Me. I Won His Primary.” HERE)

Guess What’s Causing Delayed Results in Nevada?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The race between Republican Adam Laxalt and Democratic Senator Maggie Hassan is razor thin as votes in Nevada continue to be counted.

But according to the New York Times, a new batch of mail-in votes will delay final counts.

“Overwhelmed election officials in Nevada say that they have been flooded by thousands of mail-in ballots, and that it may take several days to count the votes and upload results. Last year, the state began requiring that mail-in ballots be sent to every registered voter. While ballots must be postmarked by Election Day, they can be counted if they arrive as late as Saturday,” the New York Times reports. “Elections officials have emphasized the need for patience and have not offered predictions on how quickly they will be able to offer tallies. Jamie Rodriguez, the interim registrar of voters in Washoe County, said she was expecting roughly 16,000 mail-in ballots to arrive on Election Day. She said that those votes would not be counted until Thursday because poll workers were so behind.” (Read more from “Guess What’s Causing Delayed Results in Nevada?” HERE)

New Hope Arises in Arizona for Republicans After Ballot Update

/0 Comments/in , , /by

It was a bad election day, all things considered, for the Republican Party on Tuesday as the red wave diminished to a trickle. Tough decisions lie ahead, but perhaps there’s some glimmer of hope on the horizon.

New numbers coming out of Arizona are not only showing the races there tightening but GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake is likely favored to win over Democrat Katie Hobbs. Blake Masters, who is running for senate, also now has a clear, though, more difficult path to beat Democrat Mark Kelly.

You may remember the primary race that took place in Arizona some months ago. Kari Lake was actually down double digits late into the night. It wasn’t until the days after election day that she overtook her GOP rival to become the gubernatorial candidate. That’s because Arizona typically counts election day votes last and Lake’s voters were the type who voted on election day. That dynamic is continuing in the general election, and as it stands, it does appear there are enough ballots outstanding for Lake to come out victorious assuming there’s not a surprise drop of mail-in ballots that aren’t being considered in the equation.

Whistleblower: Joe Biden Involved With Family Gambling Business in 2012 (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden was involved with a family gambling business venture in Latin America while he was vice president of the United States, a whistleblower revealed Monday.

The revelation again contradicts Joe Biden’s vow he never spoke to his son on multiple occasions about the family’s business ventures.

The informant told the Daily Mail Joe Biden’s involvement included conducting a conference call in 2012 with Hunter Biden, his business partner Jeff Cooper, the late Harry Reid, and his son Key Reid about an online gambling platform, Ocho Global, which was operating in Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, and Argentina.

“With the direct observations I had, it’s obvious Joe was participating in the business,” the source stated. “He wasn’t passive, he was talking about it. If I had to describe him, he was like a member of the Board of Directors.”

The whistleblower described additional interactions from the phone call:

‘Harry Reid asked whether or not the Peruvian government had been taken care of,’ the source said. ‘Cooper replied that it had all been taken care of; the Peruvian cooperation was in place.

‘Joe Was Centered on the Returns in the Family Coffers.’ Whistleblower Claims Hunter and Then-VP Biden Were Part of a Group Call to Discuss Online Gambling Venture in Latin America – The President Talking Like He Was Chairman of the Board

By Daily Mail. Joe Biden was involved in his son Hunter’s foreign business deals while he was Vice President, a new whistleblower with direct knowledge claims.

The whistleblower has identified themselves to Senate investigators but asked to remain anonymous for fear of reprisals. . .

The alleged call was not recorded, but DailyMail.com has independently verified the whistleblower was closely involved in Cooper’s company for years, including at the time of the conference call, and was in a position to be involved in discussions on Ocho’s business development.

Aspects of the source’s story were verified using published government records and corporate filings. The whistleblower also provided documents, emails and photographs corroborating their account of their involvement with Cooper and Hunter’s company.

They are the second person to come forward attesting to Joe Biden’s involvement in his son’s foreign business dealings, after Hunter’s former business partner Tony Bobulinski revealed in October 2020 that he discussed their deal with Chinese oil giant CEFC directly with Joe.

Hell Freezes Over

: *CNN* Fact Checks Biden’s Midterm Misinfo; Biden Promises Climate Activist: ‘No More Drilling’… but Days Ago He Blamed Oil Companies for Not Drilling Enough

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden has made several false or misleading claims while campaigning for congressional Democrats before the Midterm Elections, according to CNN. . .

However, left-wing CNN highlighted several instances on Saturday where the president made false or misleading statements in October and November. . .

CLAIM: On Thursday in New Mexico, Biden stated former President Donald Trump’s 2017 tax cuts only benefited the top one percent, a claim he also made at this year’s State of the Union address.

VERDICT: While the tax cuts benefited top earners, middle-class Americans also received significant tax cuts in the following years after the legislation was signed. As Breitbart News’s John Carney writes:

Eighty-two percent of American middle-class households received a tax cut and Americans altogether received an average tax cut of $1,260. Ninety percent of Americans saw an increase in take-home pay. The tax cuts raised wage growth by 3.3 percent and helped foster historic lows in unemployment.

Biden Promises Climate Activist at Rally in New York: ‘No More Drilling’… but Days Ago He Blamed Oil Companies for Not Drilling Enough

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden told a climate activist on Sunday he would not allow any new drilling in the United States, just days after he complained that oil companies are not drilling enough.

“No more drilling. There is no more drilling,” Biden said, speaking to a climate activist as he finished up a rally in New York for Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY). “I haven’t formed any new drilling.”

A young woman standing front and center held up a sign protesting Biden for allowing drilling on federal lands. . .

Biden’s comment to the climate activist differed from his statements on Wednesday when he blamed oil companies for not drilling enough.

“We haven’t slowed them down at all. They should be drilling more than they’re doing now,” he said at a rally in New Mexico. “If they were drilling more, we’d have more relief at the pump.” (Read more from “Biden Promises Climate Activist at Rally in New York: ‘No More Drilling’… but Days Ago He Blamed Oil Companies for Not Drilling Enough” HERE)

Poll Worker Reportedly Ousted for Pre-Selecting Democrats on Machines

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An Indiana election office reportedly ejected a Democrat poll worker over allegations that he had pressured poll-goers against voting for certain candidates and even pre-selected Democratic candidates on a voting machine last week, local election officials told Fox News.

The incidents took place at a polling place in Carmel, Indiana, under the Hamilton County Election Office. Hamilton County election administrator Beth Sheller declined to confirm the poll worker’s identity in an interview with Fox News Digital, but detailed a report from the inspector at the polling location.

Sheller stated that the inspector had learned of two separate incidents that may constitute electioneering and election interference. The poll worker, first identified by Chalkboard Review executive director Tony Kinnett as James Zheng, is now reportedly being investigated by the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office, and Sheller says she hopes to see Zheng prosecuted.

The first incident took place early Thursday evening as a group of education activists stood outside the Carmel polling place and advocated for pro-parent school board candidates. Sheller says the worker spoke with a pair of black voters who entered the polling station and urged them not to vote for the pro-parent candidates, arguing that the activists outside were “racist.”

That pair of voters then cast their ballots and approached the activists outside, informing them of what the poll worker had told them. The activists, which included a campaign worker for one of the candidates, then raised the issue with the workers inside.

GOP Congressman Shreds the Media’s Pelosi Attack Narrative (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .With the Democratic Party about to get annihilated in the 2022 midterms, something we’ve known for weeks, the story fizzled out. There are too many issues impacting voters and endless incompetence emanating from the Biden White House for anyone to care about this little home hammer time incident. Still, Rep. Tom Emmers (R-MN) had to call out the liberal media’s double standard regarding the Pelosi hammer assault (via Real Clear Politics):

RCC Chairman Rep. Tom Emmer pushed back against CBS’s Margaret Brennan when she blamed Republican campaign ads for inspiring a violent attack on the husband of Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

“I never saw anyone after Steve Scalise was shot by a Bernie Sanders supporter… Trying to equate Democrat rhetoric with those actions. Please don’t do that,” Emmer said on “Face The Nation.”

“I’m sure people like to talk about anything but what the Democrats have done to this country, which quite frankly is exploding cost of living,” he added.
