Dem Rep Who Breathlessly Defends Biden Family Releases Trump Corruption Report — With One Big Problem

/0 Comments/in , , /by

House Democrats published a report Thursday showing former President Donald Trump received at least $7.8 million from foreign sources, a smaller total than the Biden family.

Democratic Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin, Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee, released the Trump report and accused House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer of fighting his attempts to obtain business records for the report.

“President Trump’s businesses received, at a minimum, $7.8 million in foreign payments from at least 20 countries during his presidency. These included payments from foreign governments and foreign government-owned or -controlled entities to properties owned by Donald Trump,” the report reads.

The $7.8 million figure listed in the Trump report is less than the $15 million Biden family members made from roughly 2014-19 during and after Joe Biden’s vice presidency, according to a memo circulated in September by House Republicans.

Lawyer for Epstein’s Victims Says Trump Was the Only Powerful Figure Who Helped Him With Investigation

/6 Comments/in , , /by

A video resurfaced Tuesday of attorney Bradley Edwards discussing former President Donald Trump’s attitude and actions toward late child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein following the latter’s first arrest.

Edwards has represented more than 70 victims of Jeffrey Epstein since 2009, and is largely credited with helping bring the child sex trafficker to justice. In a video that circulated online Tuesday, and originally released by the Conscious Resistance Network in 2018, Edwards told the site’s founder Derrick Broze about his perspective on Trump’s involvement in the situation.

Broze cited a case brought against Trump by two former alleged victims of Epstein, which was dropped before reaching court, and asked Edwards’ his opinion of the validity of the claims.

“The only thing that I can say about President Trump is that he is the only person who in 2009, when I served a lot of subpoenas against a lot of people … he is the only person that picked up the phone and said, ‘let’s just talk, I’ll give ya as much time as you want, I’ll tell ya what you need to know,’” Bradley explained.

“And [Trump] was very helpful in the information that he gave, and gave no indication whatsoever that he was involved in anything untoward whatsoever,” Bradley continued. “But [he] had good information, that checked out, and that helped us, and that we didn’t have to take a deposition of him.” (Read more from “Lawyer for Epstein’s Victims Says Trump Was the Only Powerful Figure Who Helped Him With Investigation” HERE)

Court Acts on Biden Scheme to Force ER Doctors to Become Abortionists

/2 Comments/in , /by

A ruling from an appeals court has, for the time being, blocked a scheme by Joe Biden to alter the nation’s rules and regulations to force emergency room physicians to become abortionists.

According to a report form the ADF, the ruling is from the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in a case in which Texas challenged Biden’s plan to change the rules, under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act, to force those abortion procedures.

The ADF called the ruling “a pivotal victory for women, children, and healthcare professionals.”

The change-up of the rules was part of Biden’s campaign after the Supreme Court overturned the faulty Roe abortion precedent to install abortion mandates throughout the government wherever he could.

Biden’s plan essentially said that should someone come into an emergency room wanting an abortion, the physicians would be required to provide that. (Read more from “Court Acts on Biden Scheme to Force ER Doctors to Become Abortionists” HERE)

Biden Departs Island With Wicked Sunburn After 7-Day Vacation

/2 Comments/in , /by

Polls aren’t the only thing burning the commander in chief.

President Biden was spotted red-faced in the US Virgin Islands on Tuesday as he prepared to head back to the White House after a seven-day vacation in St. Croix.

The 81-year-old president’s striking new sunburn was on full display as he shook hands on the tarmac of Henry E. Rohlsen Airport in Christiansted, St. Croix, before boarding Air Force One with first lady Jill Biden.

The sun’s rays apparently battered Biden, who was beet red from his forehead down to his neck – exposed by the deep-V of his unbuttoned collar.

Biden’s sunburn comes after a cancerous skin lesion was removed from his chest during his annual physical last February. (Read more from “Biden Departs Island With Wicked Sunburn After 7-Day Vacation” HERE)

President Biden’s Getaway: 37% of Year Spent on Vacation

/4 Comments/in , /by

A new report reveals that President Joe Biden spent over a third of the past year away from the White House, seeking refuge at various getaway spots, including his Delaware residences, vacation destinations, and Camp David. The New York Post’s review of public records shows that the 81-year-old president was absent for 138 days in 2023, accounting for 37% of his time.

Delaware was a favored retreat for Biden, who spent a significant portion of his getaway days at either his personal residence in Wilmington or his sun-and-sand hideaway in Rehoboth. In addition to Delaware, he enjoyed official vacations in St. Croix, Lake Tahoe, and Nantucket, spending a total of 22 days on official vacation in 2023.

President Biden’s getaway days in 2023 were only slightly less than the previous year, where he spent over 38% of his time at similar locations. The report notes that Biden’s time away from Washington surpasses that of all recent presidents, with George H.W. Bush being the closest competitor, spending 36% of his presidency at getaway spots.

The New York Post also highlights Biden’s five notable vacations in 2023, including a stay at a St. Croix compound owned by Democratic donors Bill and Connie Neville and a 20-day period in August spent either in Delaware or at Tom Steyer’s $20 million Lake Tahoe estate.

Biden Appears To Forget He Loves Ice Cream In Softball Seacrest Interview

/3 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden appeared to forget — at least momentarily — about his well-documented love for ice cream during a brief exchange with host Ryan Seacrest on “Dick Clark’s New Tear’s Rockin’ Eve.”

Both the president and First Lady Jill Biden chatted with Seacrest during the holiday special on Sunday evening, and the former “American Idol” host lobbed a series of softball questions their way.

At one point, Seacrest asked the president to share some of the holiday foods he had been enjoying as he had traveled first to Camp David and then to St. Croix, the U.S. Virgin Islands, over the last week.

“I’ve been eating everything that’s put in front of me!” Biden replied. “I’ve eaten pasta, which I love. Eaten a lot of chicken, chicken parmesan, I’ve been eating all Italian foods basically —”

“And ice cream,” Jill Biden reminded him, interrupting.

Biden’s Re-Election Bid Hit With Foreboding New Year’s Eve Forecast

/3 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden enters 2024 with job approval and poll numbers that bode ill for the incumbent, a political analyst told an MSNBC audience on New Year’s Eve.

National political correspondent Steve Kornacki explained on Sunday, armed with his signature charts, how NBC’s final poll of the year compares with the statistics for other presidents heading into a re-election year.

Biden stood at 40% approval and 57% disapproval in November, which Kornacki said is the “lowest” dating back to President George H.W. Bush, who lost his attempt to secure a second term, and others who won or got defeated in the intervening years.

Moving on to an average of 2024 general election polls, which over course of 2023 has flipped from favoring Biden in a head-to-head rematch against former President Donald Trump by 2 points to giving Trump a plus-two margin over Biden, Kornacki noted that it looks to be a “very close race.” (Read more from “Biden’s Re-Election Bid Hit With Foreboding New Year’s Eve Forecast” HERE)

These Are the Important Dates to Know for the Jam-Packed Election Year in 2024

/9 Comments/in , /by

The 2024 calendar will be chock-full of national and statewide races alongside a contentious presidential election coinciding with Donald Trump’s slate of trials amid his run for another term.

Presidential candidates, House and Senate hopefuls, gubernatorial nominees and others will face off on Nov. 5 after a busy year of party primaries and special elections. Additionally, the former president faces four trials following 2023 indictments related to alleged election interference, classified documents and hush money payments as he challenges President Joe Biden for the White House.

Iowa’s caucus is the first nominating contest of the 2024 season on Jan. 15, followed by New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation primary on Jan. 23. Nevada is holding both a party primary and a state caucus within two days of each other on Feb. 6 and Feb. 8, respectively.

South Carolina’s primary is set for Feb. 24, and Michigan’s will take place three days later. . .

As a part of the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC’s) new calendar, at the directive of Biden, South Carolina was moved up first for their party, pushing back both Iowa and New Hampshire. Iowa caved to the DNC, and will release their presidential preferences on March 5, while New Hampshire kept its late January date.

Former Obama Advisor Warns Democrats: Excluding Trump From Ballots a Mistake

/5 Comments/in , /by

Former President Barack Obama’s top adviser, David Axelrod, has raised concerns about the strategy some states are considering to keep former President Donald Trump off the primary ballots for the 2024 presidential election. Axelrod, known for his political insights, revealed to CNN on Friday that he harbored “very, very strong reservations” about such moves, highlighting the potential risks it could pose for the Democratic Party.

States like Maine and Colorado have taken steps to declare Trump “ineligible” to run for president in 2024, citing the 14th Amendment’s “insurrection” clause in response to the events of January 6th, 2021. Axelrod expressed his worry, stating that preventing Trump from running could have severe consequences, possibly tearing the country apart.

“I do think it would rip the country apart if he were actually prevented from running because tens of millions of people want to vote for him,” Axelrod emphasized during the CNN interview.

Axelrod argued that attempting to exclude Trump from the 2024 primary ballot might play into the former president’s hands, as Trump had strategically set up his campaign to function as part of his legal defense.

The former Obama adviser noted that every attack Democrats had launched against Trump seemed to backfire, with the former president gaining support.

Brianne Pfannenstiel, chief political reporter at the Des Moines Register, echoed Axelrod’s concerns, emphasizing that attacks on Trump tended to strengthen his support, particularly among Republicans in states like Iowa.

“If he’s being attacked, Republicans in Iowa tend to gravitate even more closely to him… His support is only getting stronger here in Iowa,” Pfannenstiel said during a Sunday morning MSNBC show.

Here’s the Five Biggest Hunter Biden Stories of the Past Year

/4 Comments/in , /by

It’s been a turbulent year for Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden’s embattled son famous for his foreign business dealings and drug-fueled extravagance. . .

Hunter Biden’s troubles were supposed to be put to bed in July 2023 with a guilty plea deal for two tax misdemeanor offenses in Delaware and a pretrial diversion agreement for a single felony gun charge. But Delaware U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika took issue with a prosecutorial immunity provision contained in the diversion agreement when Biden appeared in court to finalize the guilty plea. . .

IRS agents Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler testified to the House Ways and Means Committee in late May and early June with allegations DOJ officials gave Hunter Biden special treatment during the ongoing criminal investigation. The Ways and Means Committee released the transcripts of their testimony in late June and both whistleblowers testified publicly the next month. . .

Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Weiss special counsel in August after the IRS whistleblowers testified publicly and Hunter Biden’s guilty plea agreement collapsed. Weiss’ investigation into Hunter Biden resulted in two separate indictments by federal grand juries in Delaware and the Central District of California. . .

House Republicans launched an impeachment inquiry into President Biden in September based on Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings and the IRS whistleblower testimony. The House Ways and Means, Oversight and Judiciary Committees are leading the impeachment inquiry. (Read more from “Here’s the Five Biggest Hunter Biden Stories of the Past Year” HERE)
