Biden DOJ Says Droning American Citizens Is Totally Fine Because Obama’s DOJ Said So

/0 Comments/in , /by

Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) argued Thursday before the Supreme Court that droning American citizens is permissible because Obama’s DOJ said so, whereas questioning election results isn’t OK because the government also says so.

The Supreme Court heard arguments on the scope of presidential immunity after special counsel Jack Smith alleged that former President Donald Trump should be tossed in jail for questioning the administration of the 2020 election.

Justice Brett Kavanaugh posed a series of hypotheticals to DOJ attorney Michael Dreeben about the scope of presidential authority, asking whether Gerald Ford’s pardon of Richard Nixon in 1976 could have been investigated for obstruction of justice “on the theory that [Ford was] interfering with the investigation of Richard Nixon.” . . .

“How about President Obama’s drone strikes?” Kavanaugh asked.

“So the Office of Legal Counsel looked at this very carefully and determined that, number one, the federal murder statute does apply to the executive branch,” Dreeben said. “The president wasn’t personally carrying out the strike, but the aiding and abetting laws are broad, and it determined that a public authority exception that’s built into statutes and that applied particularly to the murder statute, because it talks about unlawful killing, did not apply to the drone strike.” (Read more from “Biden DOJ Says Droning American Citizens Is Totally Fine Because Obama’s DOJ Said So” HERE)

Report: Biden Backtracks on Menthol Cigarette Ban Due to Concerns of Angering Black Voters

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden has reportedly canceled a plan to ban menthol cigarettes after his administration feared that banning them could cause black voters to revolt against the president ahead of the upcoming election.

The Wall Street Journal reported that menthols account for roughly a third of all cigarette sales in the U.S. and that black people are overwhelmingly the largest consumers of the product.

Activist groups believe that by banning menthol cigarettes, there will be an explosion in black market sales of the product, which they claim will lead to racial profiling by law enforcement.

“This rule has garnered historic attention and the public comment period has yielded an immense amount of feedback, including from various elements of the civil rights and criminal justice movement,” said Xavier Becerra, secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. “It’s clear that there are still more conversations to have, and that will take significantly more time.”

The Journal reported that the administration pulled back on its plan as it considered the “political repercussions” of banning the product as Biden is significantly “underperforming with Black voters, especially Black men.” (Read more from “Report: Biden Backtracks on Menthol Cigarette Ban Due to Concerns of Angering Black Voters” HERE)

WATCH: Rapper Teams With Nashville Hit Songwriter for ‘Hunter Got High’

/1 Comment/in , /by

“Hunter Got High,” the new single featuring Grammy-nominated rapper Afroman, debuted this week along with a searing satirical video that brings to life Hunter Biden’s many alleged scandals, as well as his miraculous ability thus far to walk away from the political infernos relatively unscathed.

Shot through with blistering punchlines and scathing wit, the song offers a rundown of President Joe Biden’s son’s greatest hits — from his affinity for hookers and drugs; the laptop fiasco; his shady deal-making in Ukraine and China; and his tax evasion indictment. Even Hunter’s career as a fine art painter gets roasted.

The zingers come fast and furious. “He shoulda let Hillary bleach the whole hard drive,” one line goes. Another verse takes aim at his art: “He never could paint worth a fuck… Now he gets, a half a mill and up.” And perhaps the most savage burn: “He got more LLC’s than John Gotti’s ex-wife.”

Those one-liners are the brainchild of multi-platinum country music songwriter Chris Wallin, who has penned hit songs for some of Nashville’s biggest stars, including Toby Keith, Trace Adkins, Montgomery Gentry, and Kenny Chesney. Wallin is Head of A&R for Baste Records, the label behind “Hunter Got High” and which describes itself as a music label devoted to creating a “counterculture against cancel culture.”

Biden Efforts to Pocket Pennsylvania in Jeopardy After Write-in Votes Pass 60,000 Mark in Primary

/3 Comments/in , , /by

President Joe Biden may have an uphill battle ahead of him in Pennsylvania after the write-in candidate option on the Democratic primary ballot notched over 60,000 votes.

While the list of all the write-in entries has yet to be revealed, an organized protest effort against Biden was launched in the Keystone State that urged voters upset with his handling of the Israel–Hamas war to vote against him.

Uncommitted PA, the group that spearheaded the campaign, set a goal of 40,000 “uncommitted” votes during the primary. The Associated Press had tallied 60,223 total write-in votes with 99% of the vote counted as of Thursday afternoon.

“We are celebrating that massive victory of over 60,000 votes, which have nearly doubled the total of write-ins in 2020, and even more so than the write-ins in 2016,” Rah Noonan, an organizer with Uncommitted PA, told the Washington Examiner.

The coalition mobilized the write-in campaign in roughly one month, launching on March 25 with only volunteer members, a sign of the intense passion girding the movement. (Read more from “Biden Efforts to Pocket Pennsylvania in Jeopardy After Write-in Votes Pass 60,000 Mark in Primary” HERE)

Republicans Sound Alarm on Efforts to Shield Ukraine Funding From American Voters

/3 Comments/in , /by

As President Joe Biden signed legislation Wednesday to send billions of dollars more in aid to Ukraine, officials from Brussels to Washington are working to hamstring former President Donald Trump from taking a different route should he win back the White House.

With Congress granting Biden additional “drawdown” authority to send weapons to Kyiv, and NATO allies in Europe seeking to take the power to send aid away from the White House, multiple Senate Republicans, strategists and former Trump officials told the Daily Caller efforts to “Trump-proof” foreign aid are misguided and futile.

“There are things that they’re setting in motion here that are going to make it very difficult for Trump to, if he’s elected president, to undo this, to extricate us, from these arrangements,” Utah Sen. Mike Lee said. “I mean, look there are a thousand things you can do with government contracting that can make it either easier or harder for a subsequent administration to take a different approach.”

Lee is among the lawmakers and officials who opposed the aid package that will send $26.4 billion of funding to Israel, $8.1 billion of funding to Taiwan and $61 billion of more aid to Ukraine. Several of the opponents noted that, in their view, Ukraine is unlikely to prevail in the long-term against Russia and a settlement must be negotiated sooner rather than later.

“The fact is that the strategy isn’t working. There is no strategy,” Fred Fleitz, the vice chair of America First Policy Institute’s Center for American Security said. “And Trump understands that. And it’s just not fair for these Democrats to say, well, we’re going to Trump-proof NATO. We’re going to Trump proof aid for Ukraine.” (Read more from “Republicans Sound Alarm on Efforts to Shield Ukraine Funding From American Voters” HERE)

Biden Reads Out ‘Pause’ Instruction During Speech; Bizarrely Lies About Trump Giving Him Boots

/2 Comments/in , , /by

President Joe Biden or President Ron Burgundy?

In a case of life imitating art, the commander-in-chief blurted out the stage note “pause” Wednesday while addressing union members in the nation’s
capital.

“Four more years. Pause,” said Biden, 81, a la Will Ferrell’s buffoonish newsman character in the classic 2004 comedy “Anchorman.”

Members of North America’s Building Trades Unions stepped in and dutifully chanted “four more years” in response to the president’s botched cue.

It was not immediately clear whether the instruction was included in Biden’s teleprompter or in his prepared remarks.

The gaffe was one of a series of bizarre moments that peppered the speech, including Biden saying his predecessor, Donald Trump, had given him a pair of boots as a present. (Read more from “Biden Reads Out ‘Pause’ Instruction During Speech; Bizarrely Lies About Trump Giving Him Boots” HERE)

Black Conservatives Blast Biden Admin’s ‘Soft Bigotry’ After It Sues Sheetz for Discrimination

/0 Comments/in , /by

Prominent black conservatives blasted President Biden and his administration for their discrimination lawsuit against Sheetz convenience stores.

Biden’s Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is suing gas station chain Sheetz for what they say are discriminatory hiring practices because Sheetz screens job applicants for criminal records, the lawsuit claims.

Sheetz “violated federal law by denying employment to a class of job applicants because of their race, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a lawsuit filed today,” the EEOC said in a Thursday press release.

“Sheetz has maintained a longstanding practice of screening all job applicants for records of criminal conviction and then denying them employment based on those records,” the EEOC statement alleges.

Multiple prominent black conservative figures lambasted Biden and the EEOC for the suit. (Read more from “Black Conservatives Blast Biden Admin’s ‘Soft Bigotry’ After It Sues Sheetz for Discrimination” HERE)

How the Biden Admin Enables Government Employees to Change Genders

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration has set out to encourage gender transition attempts among federal bureaucrats, establishing gender transition support plans, holding trainings pushing Left-wing gender ideology, and even telling federal employees that referring to someone by biologically accurate pronouns is discrimination.

In a document published by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), effectively the human resources department of the federal government, the Biden administration commanded federal agencies to embed “gender identity inclusion practices” throughout the bureaucracy.

Titled “Guidance Regarding Gender Identity and Inclusion in the Federal Workplace,” the document was published on “transgender day of visibility,” March 31, and it instructs agencies to “take actions to ensure that all Federal employees have their respective gender identities accurately reflected and identified in the workplace.” The document specifically tells the federal bureaucracy to ensure that name and pronoun changes are respected, warning that those who use “incorrect” terms might “contribute to an unlawful hostile work environment.”

It also directs agencies to host gender identity trainings, saying they should “take steps to implement or increase the availability of training programs on gender identity and inclusion in the Federal workplace for employees, managers, and leadership.”

While the OPM document further formalizes the Biden administration’s support of transgenderism, numerous federal agencies have already established policies to encourage transgenderism in the federal workforce. The Department of the Interior (DOI), for example, published a document called “Supporting Gender Transition in the Federal Workplace” that lays out how the federal agency will offer support to bureaucrats who are attempting to change their sex.
