Angry’ Joe Protects Hunter From Aides: ‘Hands off My Family’

President Joe Biden, who is reportedly “consumed” with his son Hunter’s scandals, allegedly angrily dismisses White House aides who believe Hunter Biden’s controversial history might politically hurt his father.

“It’s consumed him,” a person close to the president told NBC News.

According to the network’s report, the president “resents” any suggestion of a degree of separation between the two men, one a lifelong politician, the other a Yale Law-trained lobbyist with a history of earning money in sectors in which he has little to no experience.

In recent days, White House aides reportedly tried to speak with Joe Biden about the continual drip drop of damning evidence streaming from Hunter Biden’s foreign business transactions, but NBC News sources report Joe Biden’s response was “outright angry” towards anyone who would challenge him on the subject.

Joe Biden reportedly told one aide, “Hands off my family.” (Read more from “Angry’ Joe Protects Hunter From Aides: ‘Hands off My Family’” HERE)

Nikki Haley: House ‘Absolutely Should’ Begin Impeachment Proceedings Against Joe Biden

Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley said the House should begin impeachment proceedings against President Joe Biden over evidence suggesting his influence was sold to foreign agents.

Haley, a candidate for the GOP presidential nomination in 2024, made the comments during an appearance on “Gutfeld!” on Fox News Thursday night. The panel, led by Fox News host Greg Gutfeld, were discussing a 2017 WhatsApp message that allegedly shows Biden’s son invoking his name to shake down a Chinese businessman.

“Why can’t they start impeachment right now?” Gutfeld asked, after comparing the allegations against Biden to those against former President Donald Trump about a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky before Trump’s first impeachment.

“They absolutely should,” Haley responded. “Why doesn’t the media force him to get up and answer questions about it? If this were any other president, truly, think about it, they would have to be standing at a podium answering questions from the press on what did you know, when did you know it, how did you know it?”

“If the Justice Department is not going to do it, Congress should do it. But somebody needs to do it. It smells bad all day long,” Haley said. (Read more from “Nikki Haley: House ‘Absolutely Should’ Begin Impeachment Proceedings Against Joe Biden” HERE)

Supreme Court Strikes Down Biden’s Student Loan Forgiveness Plan

The Supreme Court struck down President Biden’s program writing off hundreds of billions of dollars in federally held student loan debt Friday, ruling that the commander-in-chief had overstepped his executive authority.

On the last day before the high court’s summer recess, the six conservative justices ruled the $400 billion plan could not use a 2003 law meant to help veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars as a vehicle to implement the program.

Instead, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority, the law allows the Education Department to only “waive or modify” existing programs implemented under the federal Education Act of 1965, not “rewrite that statute from the ground up.”

“The question here is not whether something should be done; it is who has the authority to do it,” the chief justice added. “So too here, where the Secretary of Education claims the authority, on his own, to release 43 million borrowers from their obligations to repay $430 billion in student loans. The Secretary has never previously claimed powers of this magnitude”.

Roberts added that the administration had fallen short of demonstrating that it had “‘clear congressional authorization’ to justify the challenged program.” (Read more from “Supreme Court Strikes Down Biden’s Student Loan Forgiveness Plan” HERE)

Another Year of Bidenflation Means More Record-Breaking Independence Day Cookout Costs

Backyard barbecue buffs all across the nation will pay more for several grilling goodies in 2023 after enduring yet another year of the Biden administration’s damaging economic policies.

A new report from the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) found that the total cost for a 10-person Independence Day gathering featuring hamburgers, chicken, pork chops, chips, lemonade, ice cream, and other goodies will cost $67.73.

AFBF framed this year’s estimation as “Down Slightly From 10-Year High,” after last year’s total of $69.68. But that framing doesn’t provide the whole story, especially considering that Americans will pay 17 percent more for hamburger buns, 5 percent more for potato salad, 4 percent more for ground beef, and 3 percent more for strawberries and ice cream than they did in 2022.

AFBF’s Chief Economist Roger Cryan noted that this year’s overall calculated cost is “still 14 percent higher than it was two years ago.” Data also shows this is “the second highest” priced cookout recorded since the survey’s conception in 2013.

Two years have passed since President Joe Biden’s White House bragged about saving Americans money on their backyard barbecues in 2021. In reality, the prices of barbecue basics were only pennies lower than in 2020, when prices were marred by government-mandated lockdowns and a supply-chain crisis. At the time, Americans were also struggling to keep up with record-high gas prices and a 5 percent increase in the cost of consumer goods.

DOJ Prosecutors Who Allegedly Refused to Charge Hunter Biden Donated to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Records Show

One of the federal prosecutors who allegedly declined to charge Hunter Biden with tax fraud donated to President Joe Biden and the other gave money to Vice President Kamala Harris while working in the private sector, Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show.

U.S. Attorney David Weiss, a Trump-appointee who led the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) investigation into Hunter Biden, requested the U.S. Attorney in the Central District of California and the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia to each bring tax charges against Hunter Biden, according to testimony from IRS Whistleblower Gary Shapley.

Weiss’ requests were rejected by Biden-appointed U.S. Attorney for D.C. Matthew Graves and Biden-appointed U.S Attorney for the Central District of California E. Martin Estrada, Shapley testified. Weiss requested special counsel authority after each request was rejected, and Attorney General Merrick Garland denied his requests, according to Shapley.

Biden’s alleged tax evasion from 2014-15 would have to be charged in D.C. prior to the statute of limitations expiring, Shapley said. “However, I would later be told by United States Attorney Weiss that the D.C. U.S. Attorney would not allow U.S. Attorney Weiss to charge those years in his district,” he continued.

“That process meant no charges would ever be brought in the District of Columbia, where the statute of limitations on the 2014 and ’15 charges would eventually expire. The years in question included foreign income from Burisma and a scheme to evade his income taxes through a partnership with a convicted felon. There were also potential FARA [Foreign Agents Registration Act] issues relating to 2014 and 2015. The purposeful exclusion of the 2014 and 2015 years sanitized the most substantive criminal conduct and concealed material facts,” Shapley added.

White House Accused of Deleting Heated Exchange Between Karine Jean-Pierre and Reporter

The Biden White House tried to pull a fast one over on Americans by deleting a heated exchange between White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre and a reporter from its official live stream.

Today News Africa correspondent Simon Ateba accused the White House of removing his tense conversation with Jean-Pierre, saying the Biden Administration has discriminated against him.

“The White House, under this administration, we’re committed to the freedom of the press. I want to be very clear about that,” Jean-Pierre declared.

“So are you going to take questions from me?… because you’ve been discriminating against me for the past nine months,” Ateba asked.

The back and forth continued when Jean-Pierre finally threatened the reporter that she would end the press briefing, calling Ateba “incredibly rude.”

IRS Whistleblower Says He Was Barred From Taking ‘Certain Investigative Steps’ That Could’ve Led to President Biden; Hunter Got $8.3 Million From Foreign Sources

By New York Post. The IRS whistleblower accusing the Justice Department of interfering in the Hunter Biden tax fraud probe claimed in a new interview that his team was prevented from taking investigative measures that “could have led us to President Biden.”

IRS supervisory agent Gary Shapley, who delivered bombshell testimony to the House Ways and Means Committee in May related to the five-year-long tax fraud investigation of first son Hunter Biden, made the assertion in a sit-down with CBS Evening News that aired Tuesday.

“There were certain investigative steps we weren’t allowed to take that could have led us to President Biden,” Shapley told CBS reporter Jim Axelrod.

Shapley emphasized in the interview that the investigative procedures the Justice Department purportedly blocked his team from completing were a necessary part of the probe.

“We needed to take them,” he said. (Read more from “IRS Whistleblower Says He Was Barred From Taking ‘Certain Investigative Steps’ That Could’ve Led to President Biden” HERE)

IRS Whistleblower: Hunter Got $8.3 Million From Foreign Sources, We Can’t Recoup Taxes on $400K in Unreported Burisma Income

By Breitbart. During an interview with the Fox News Channel aired on Wednesday’s broadcast of “Special Report,” IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley said that Hunter Biden got around $8.3 million from China, Ukraine, and Romania and that there is “no way to recoup” taxes owed on $400,000 of unreported income he made from Burisma in 2014 and unreported 2018 income.

Shapley said, “Concerning Hunter Biden, I feel like we have a very good grasp on the income flows, yes. … It was around 8.3 million from 2014 to 2019.”

He added, “When prosecutors don’t allow you to put the subject’s name on document requests or on search warrants, then it raises the possibility that there’s more information out there that we didn’t find, but based on all of the financial records that we did find, they’ve been analyzed and it was around 8.3 million he received.” (Read more from “IRS Whistleblower: Hunter Got $8.3 Million From Foreign Sources, We Can’t Recoup Taxes on $400K in Unreported Burisma Income” HERE)

Oldest President in American History Placed on Respiratory Device

President Joe Biden has begun using a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine at night to treat his sleep apnea, the White House announced on Wednesday.

“Since 2008, the president has disclosed his history with sleep apnea in thorough medical reports,” White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates said. “He used a CPAP machine last night, which is common for people with that history.”

Biden, the nation’s oldest president at 80, first disclosed his recurring issue with sleep apnea in his 2008 medical records. Biden’s 2019 medical records revealed he had multiple surgeries on his sinus and nasal passages.

As CNN reported:

During Biden’s 2021 physical, the White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor singled out two areas of “observation”: an “increasing frequency and severity of ‘throat clearing’ and coughing during speaking engagements” and the president’s stiffer gait.

RFK Jr. Won’t Commit to Supporting Biden if He Loses Primary

Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday wouldn’t commit to supporting President Biden if the incumbent beats him in the party’s 2024 primary.

Asked at a NewsNation town hall event by moderator Elizabeth Vargas whether he’d pledge to support whoever wins the Democratic nomination, Kennedy said “of course I’m not gonna do that.”

“So if you don’t get the nomination, you won’t support President Biden?” Vargas asked.

“I don’t know what I’ll do,” Kennedy said. “Let’s see what happens in this campaign. Let’s see what – if people are living up to democratic values and having debates and having discussions and, you know, talking to each other, but I’m not going to bite.”

Pressed on whether he’d support a candidate from another party or run as an independent, Kennedy said, “My plan is to win this election, and I don’t have a plan B.” (Read more from “RFK Jr. Won’t Commit to Supporting Biden if He Loses Primary” HERE)

Joe Biden Says Putin Is ‘Clearly Losing the War in Iraq’ (VIDEO)

President Biden this week mistakenly referred to Ukraine as Iraq on two occasions, mixing up the names of recent areas of conflict.

Biden was asked Wednesday to what extent Russian President Vladimir Putin has been weakened by the aborted rebellion in Russia. In his response, he switched out Ukraine for the war that started with a U.S.-led coalition invasion into Iraq and ended in 2011.

“It’s hard to tell, but he is clearly losing the war in Iraq, he’s losing the war at home and he has become a bit of a pariah around the world,” the president said at the White House.

“It’s not just NATO, it’s not just the European Union, it’s Japan,” he added.

The White House did not respond to a request for comments on the word swap. (Read more from “Joe Biden Says Putin Is ‘Clearly Losing the War in Iraq’ (VIDEO)” HERE)
