Child Support: Joe Biden Says Hunter Is ‘on the Straight and Narrow,’ Denies Alleged Gun Crime; President Addresses Possibility of Hunter Biden Prosecution

/0 Comments/in , /by

By New York Post. President Biden said Tuesday that his son Hunter Biden is “on the straight and narrow” and denied his offspring committed a gun-purchase crime that the US attorney in Delaware reportedly is considering charging.

CNN host Jake Tapper asked Biden to give his first public response to reporting last week by the Washington Post that the FBI believes there’s enough evidence to charge Hunter, 52, with tax fraud and lying on a gun-purchase form by denying his drug use.

“Personally and politically, how do you react to that?” Tapper asked Biden, whose own involvement in his family’s overseas dealings will be a top focus of Republicans if they retake Congress in the Nov. 8 midterm elections.

“Well, first of all, I’m proud of my son. This is a kid who got, not a kid — he’s a grown man. He got hooked on — like many families have had happen, hooked on drugs. He’s overcome that. He’s established a new life,” the president told Tapper.

“He is — I’m confident that he is — what he says and does are consistent with what happens. And for example, he wrote a book about his problems and was straightforward about it. I’m proud of him.” (Read more from “Child Support: Joe Biden Says Hunter Is ‘on the Straight and Narrow,’ Denies Alleged Gun Crime” HERE)

President Addresses Possibility of Hunter Biden Prosecution

By Politico. President Joe Biden addressed the possibility of his son, Hunter Biden, being prosecuted for tax crimes and a false statement during a gun purchase — the first time the elder Biden has answered questions about the possibility of charges, first reported by the Washington Post.

“I didn’t know anything about it,” the president said in an interview that aired Tuesday on CNN, of his son possibly lying about drug use on an application to purchase a gun.

Federal agents think they have enough evidence to charge the younger Biden with tax crimes and the false statement, the Washington Post reported last week. However, no such charges have been filed by the U.S. Attorney in Delaware — an appointee of former President Donald Trump — yet.

Liar, Liar: Biden Repeats Exaggerated 2004 Fire Story at White House Event (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden retold a story during the White House “Summit on Fire Prevention and Control” about a blaze at his Delaware home that has been criticized for being exaggerated. . .

During the event, Biden praised firefighters for saving his two sons after a 1972 car crash, which killed his first wife and their daughter, as well as for rushing him to the hospital in 1988 when he was suffering from two aneurysms. But he also repeated a story about a 2004 blaze at his Wilmington, Delaware, property.

“From the basement to the third floor, the attic, everything was ruined,” he added. “We almost lost a couple firefighters, they tell me, because the kitchen floor was burning between beams, and then the house, in addition, almost collapsed into the basement.”

An Associated Press report at the time described a “small” fire that was contained to the then-senator’s kitchen, though it did mention “heavy smoke.” (Read more from “Liar, Liar: Biden Repeats Exaggerated 2004 Fire Story at White House Event” HERE)

Is a Joe Biden-Appointed Prosecutor Letting James Biden Skate in Federal Criminal Probe?

/0 Comments/in , /by

U.S. Attorney Cindy K. Chung is still overseeing the criminal investigation into the bankrupt health care business from which James Biden allegedly siphoned hundreds of thousands of dollars to finance repairs to his beach house, even after President Joe Biden nominated the top prosecutor for a lifetime appointment as a federal appellate judge. And the assistant U.S. attorney leading the criminal investigation into the James Biden-connected business has now been tapped to replace Chung, according to sources.

Attorney General Merrick Garland has ignored these blatant conflicts of interest just as he has spurned demands that he appoint a special counsel for the Delaware criminal investigation into the Biden family business dealings that implicate not just Hunter and James Biden, but the president of the United States.

“A resident of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, pleaded guilty in federal court to three counts of conspiracy related to the submission of fraudulent health care claims, United States Attorney Cindy K. Chung announced today,” a September press release from the Western District of Pennsylvania opened. Chung’s announcement then detailed the conspiracy to commit health care fraud, pay and receive unlawful kickbacks, and commit money laundering, to which Daniel Hurt pleaded guilty.

While on the surface the Hurt case seems unrelated to James Biden, the details underlying the charge reveal the investigation into Hurt should have run prosecutors headlong into President Biden’s brother’s financial relationship with Americore, the company Hurt allegedly solicited and obtained kickbacks from in executing his Medicare fraud.

Thanks Biden: Gas Prices Soar Again (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The national average price for gas Tuesday was nearly $4 a gallon as Americans struggle under President Joe Biden’s (D) economy.

AAA’s gas tracking website recorded the day’s national average at $3.923. Monday’s average was $3.919, and a year ago it was recorded at $3.274.

In March, personal finance expert Dave Ramsey told Fox News lower income Americans are struggling financially, and, “They got hit with the pandemic now they’re getting hit with this Biden inflation at the gas pump. The gas pump is 100 percent on Biden’s desk. It’s 100 percent his fault.”

Meanwhile, experts say Biden will have drained the the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to a 40-year low at the end of this month, Breitbart News reported Thursday. (Read more from “Thanks Biden: Gas Prices Soar Again (VIDEO)” HERE)

FBI Brass Who Warned Facebook About Post’s Hunter Biden Laptop Reporting Were Democratic Donors: Records

/0 Comments/in , /by

Both FBI officials who briefed Facebook before the social media giant opted to censor The Post’s initial reporting on Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop made small-dollar donations to Democrats during the 2020 election cycle, according to campaign finance records and court filings.

An amended complaint released Monday by Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt’s office says Laura Dehmlow, the section chief of the bureau’s Foreign Influence Task Force, and Elvis Chan, who manages the cyber branch of the FBI’s San Francisco field office, were “involved in the communications between the FBI and Meta that led to Facebook’s suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story.”

Federal Election Commission records show that Dehmlow and Chan donated a total of $160 to Democrats in 2020. Chan contributed $50 each to Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock for their Georgia Senate runoff campaigns in November of that year, while Dehmlow gave the Democratic National Committee $60 in $10 increments between March 30 and August 30. . .

The amended complaint was filed last week as part of an extensive lawsuit against the Biden administration by Schmitt and Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry. The top prosecutors have accused the Biden administration of leaning on big tech companies to censor so-called “misinformation” about a variety of topics, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020 presidential election.

Dehmlow and Chan’s interactions with Facebook were not detailed in the court filings released Monday. However, the documents state that Chan “has openly boasted about his official role on behalf of FBI in coordinating with social-media companies.” (Read more from “FBI Brass Who Warned Facebook About Post’s Hunter Biden Laptop Reporting Were Democratic Donors: Records” HERE)

Biden Burns 3,866 Pounds of Jet Fuel Flying 72 Miles to Deliver Speech

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden on Friday burned 3,866 lbs of jet fuel to fly 72 miles aboard Air Force One to deliver a speech in Hagerstown, Maryland.

Biden’s 40-minute flight to Hagerstown burned about 3,886 lbs of jet fuel as he traveled in a Boeing 757 aircraft, which burns roughly 5,800 lbs of fuel per hour if the aircraft is traveling at the average speed of 598 miles per hour at 35,000 ft, according to Aviation Insider. Biden’s trip to Maryland produced over 12,000 lbs of carbon dioxide (CO2), according to a Daily Caller News Foundation analysis.

Biden produced CO2 emissions equivalent to driving 13,678 miles in an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle, according to the Environmental Protection Agency’s emissions calculator. A 72-mile journey in the average passenger road vehicle would emit only 58 lbs of carbon emissions as the average car has a fuel efficiency of 24.2 miles per gallon, according to a DCNF analysis.

Disappointed Biden Searches for New Gas Price Message as Midterm Elections Loom

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden and top administration officials are seeking to downplay the decision from OPEC+ to cut daily oil production by 2 million barrels after steadily decreasing domestic gas prices boosted the president and Democrats’ electoral odds heading into the midterm elections.

The decision comes shortly after Biden traveled to Saudi Arabia, where the president met with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and asked Saudi officials to ramp up production as a means of easing global energy prices amid the war in Ukraine.

Publicly, the White House is putting on a strong face in responding to the new cuts.

Biden himself told reporters Thursday that while his trip to Saudi Arabia “was not essentially for oil,” OPEC’s decision still comes as a “disappointment” and he thinks “there are problems” with the cuts.

“We are looking at alternatives,” the president added before departing heading to New York. “We haven’t made up our minds yet.” (Read more from “Disappointed Biden Searches for New Gas Price Message as Midterm Elections Loom” HERE)

Pompeo Rips Biden’s ‘Reckless’ Presidency as Trump Reminds America Biden Doesn’t Know How to Speak (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called out President Joe Biden for his Armageddon comments following Russia’s potential nuclear threat to the U.S.

Earlier this week, Biden said that he was not joking about a possible nuclear threat, adding that Russia would “easily use a tactical nuclear weapon and not end up with Armageddon.”

Calling Biden’s remarks “reckless,” Pompeo said that it was one of the “greatest foreign policy failures.”

“Oh my goodness. First of all those comments were reckless. I think that even more importantly, they demonstrate maybe one of the greatest foreign policy failures of the last decades, which was the failure to deter Vladimir Putin in the same way that the Trump administration did for four years,” Pompeo said during an interview on Fox News.

Pompeo criticized Biden’s lack of awareness when commenting, saying big news like that should not have been said randomly while speaking at a fundraiser event.

White House Walks Back Biden’s ‘Armageddon’ Remarks

/0 Comments/in , /by

The White House on Friday attempted to take the edge off President Biden’s warnings that the U.S. could soon face nuclear “Armageddon.”

Presidential press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre attempted to allay heightened fears when speaking with reporters aboard Air Force One, returning to the administration’s official mantra that the U.S. has no indication “that Russia is preparing to imminently use nuclear weapons.”

Mr. Biden “was reinforcing what he has been saying, which is how seriously we have taken these threats about nuclear weapons as we have done when the Russians have made these threats throughout the conflict,” she said. “The kind of rhetoric we have seen is no way for the leader of a nuclear-armed state to speak, and that’s what the President was making very clear.”

Still, Ms. Jean-Pierre reiterated that the U.S. does not assess that Russian President Vladimir Putin intends to launch nukes in the immediate future.

“As I said before, we have not seen any reason to adjust our own strategic nuclear posture,” she said. (Read more from “White House Walks Back Biden’s ‘Armageddon’ Remarks” HERE)

Biden Warns World Facing Nuclear ‘Armageddon’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden warned supporters on Thursday that the world is facing “Armageddon” due to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.

The president compared his plight to that of former President John F. Kennedy and the Cuban Missile Crisis with the Soviet Union.

“We have not faced the prospect of Armageddon since Kennedy and the Cuban Missile Crisis,” Biden told supporters at a Democratic fundraiser in New York City. . .

“First time since the Cuban Missile Crisis we have a direct threat of the use of nuclear weapons if, in fact, things continue down the path they are going,” he said. . .

“I don’t think there’s any such thing as the ability to easily [use] a tactical nuclear weapon and not end up with Armageddon.” (Read more from “Biden Warns World Facing Nuclear ‘Armageddon’” HERE)
