Jake Tapper: ‘Trump Was Right… Biden Was Wrong’ About Hunter’s Foreign Business Deals (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

CNN’s Jake Tapper admitted Friday afternoon that Donald Trump was correct and Joe Biden was wrong about Hunter Biden’s foreign business deals when the two addressed the issue during a 2020 presidential debate.

Tapper made the comment during a roundtable discussion on the current scandal embroiling the president and his administration as Congressional Republicans dig further into Hunter’s foreign business dealings and his father’s alleged influence in securing over $20 million since he took office as vice president in 2009. Tapper started the segment by citing a Washington Post article that stated, “Hunter Biden reported nearly $2.4 million in income in 2017 and $2.2 million in income in 2018 — most of which came from Chinese or Ukrainian interests.”

“And this directly goes against what Joe Biden said in the debate in 2020 with Donald Trump,” Tapper said before playing a clip of Biden denying that Hunter made money from Chinese business dealings while Trump berated Biden, saying that his son “made a fortune in Ukraine, in China, in Moscow.”

“Trump was right,” Tapper added. “I mean, [Hunter] did make a fortune from China, and Joe Biden was wrong. I don’t know that he was lying about it. He might not have been told by Hunter, but this blind spot is a problem.”

Biden Oversees Record Border Crossers in U.S. With Unresolved Asylum Claims, Outpacing Populations of 11 States

/0 Comments/in , /by

Under President Joe Biden’s watch, now more than 1.6 million border crossers are in the United States with unresolved asylum claims. The majority, based on federal data, will have their asylum claims denied.

The data, reviewed and published by Andrew Arthur of the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), reveals the extent to which Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is carrying out an expansive catch and release network, releasing tens of thousands of border crossers into the U.S. interior every month — most with dubious asylum claims.

As of March, there are now more than 1.6 million border crossers in the U.S. with unresolved asylum claims, Arthur details:

That’s more applicants that residents in 11 U.S. states, and an insurmountable burden for adjudicators, as the Biden administration has effectively broken the asylum system, and seeks to hide the damage.
[Emphasis added]

According to Arthur, “Biden’s DHS has released nearly every alien [Customs and Border Patrol] has encountered at the southwest border.” In hundreds of thousands of cases, border crossers in the U.S. will not have their claims adjudicated for nearly a decade.

Former Intelligence Director Slams New Biden Docs as the ‘Smoking Gun and the Bloody Knife’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said new documents involving Joe and Hunter Biden were a “smoking gun and the bloody knife” Thursday.

Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, demanded access to documents from then-Vice President Joe Biden’s emails Thursday in a letter to the National Archives and Records Administration. A May 26, 2016 email to one of then-Vice President Joe Biden’s pseudonyms discussed an upcoming meeting with then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko.

“These are Joe Biden’s documents. One of the emails on the NARA website is literally titled, ’emails between vice President Joe Biden and Hunter Biden regarding Ukraine and Burisma,’” Ratcliffe told Fox News host Laura Ingraham. “I mean, that’s not a smoking gun, that’s a smoking gun and the bloody knife. I mean, that’s really significant evidence that we really shouldn’t just be finding about now. I think it’s a shame that it’s Jamie Comer and House Republicans doing the investigating.” (Read more from “Former Intelligence Director Slams New Biden Docs as the ‘Smoking Gun and the Bloody Knife'” HERE)

Locals Lash Out Against Biden’s Visit to Maui After Deadly Wildfires: ‘I Don’t Want Him Here’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hawaiian residents are saying they don’t want Joe Biden to visit them on Monday as the president continues to face backlash this week for appearing aloof following the state’s largest natural disaster.

With pressure mounting for him to visit and discuss the federal government’s response to the Maui wildfires, Biden announced Wednesday that he would visit the devastated island come Monday, much to the dissatisfaction of some island residents.

“I don’t want him here,” Jay Awan, of Lahaina, told The Post Wednesday. “He’s just coming to Maui to look good in front of the cameras.”

Awan, 45, a cook and tiki carver, said nothing would be gained from the 80-year-old president’s visit, as his town, a once-popular resort area, has been “burned to the ground.”

He noted that even after reconstruction, which officials estimated would cost around $6 billion, the beloved island would never return to its former glory. (Read more from “Locals Lash Out Against Biden’s Visit to Maui After Deadly Wildfires: ‘I Don’t Want Him Here’” HERE)

China Mocks Biden’s Inability to Handle Hawaii Fires (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Chinese state media this week gleefully mocked President Joe Biden for bungling the response to Hawaii’s wildfires.

Editorials pushed the Communist Party narrative that only authoritarian governments can handle disasters of such magnitude, and taunted the U.S. for prioritizing military spending over disaster response.

On Tuesday, the state-run Global Times taunted that Hawaii’s travails made the U.S. look “unlike a developed country,” as the fires exposed incompetence at every level:

Deadly wildfires in Hawaii, which caused the biggest death toll in more than a century in the US and forced thousands to evacuate from their homes, expose the incompetence of the US government, said analysts, with many local residents who survived the disaster posting videos on social media criticizing the problematic response of local authorities and poor early warning system. Residents also criticized US mainstream media reports, saying this was not just a natural disaster, but also a man-made calamity.

Chinese analysts and web users are paying attention to the horrible tragedy that Americans have suffered, as the hashtags on Sina Weibo about “Hawaii wildfires” have received more than 71.52 million views on Tuesday. Experts said the response of the US government made the US look “unlike a developed country.”

KJP’s Twitter Account Apparently Posts Tweet Meant for Joe Biden

/0 Comments/in , /by

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s Twitter account apparently posted a tweet Tuesday that was meant to come from President Joe Biden.

The press secretary’s account reportedly posted a tweet about “investing in all of America” and referred to running for president, according to screenshots posted by several accounts. The tweet has since been deleted. . .

Biden traveled to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Tuesday to give a speech on the economic policy that his administration labels “Bidenomics.” During the speech, the president said he and his wife will travel to Maui, Hawaii “as soon” as they can, but did not specify a date as wildfires that have killed at least 96 people continue to devastate the country.

Biden Seems to Forget ‘Maui’ as He Finally Publicly Speaks About Wildfire Disaster in Hawaii

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden finally publicly spoke about the deadly Hawaii wildfires Tuesday — although he seemed to forget the name of the devastated island of Maui and noted he prefers to keep his speeches to under 18 minutes but would make an exception in this case.

The 80-year-old president addressed the deadliest US wildfires in more than a century after withering criticism for lounging on the beach Sunday and telling reporters “no comment” when later asked about the blaze.

Biden seemed to grasp for the name of Maui during a brief detour Tuesday from prepared remarks loaded into teleprompters for his speech in Milwaukee, Wisc. — referring to it as “the one where you see on television all of the time.

“I apologize because I try very hard to keep my speeches between 15 and 18 minutes, but I got to talk a little bit about Hawaii,” Biden said as he began a speech that was supposed to tout his own economic policies.

Biden proceeded to describe federal efforts to support disaster relief during the tragedy, including a $700 onetime grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to victims of the wildfires, which have killed at least 99 people so far.

Ex-FBI Agent Says IRS Whistleblower Was Right, Bidens Were Tipped off During Investigation

/0 Comments/in , /by

A former FBI agent who worked on the investigation into Hunter Biden has corroborated a major claim made by whistleblower and IRS supervisory special agent Gary Shapley.

The unnamed retired FBI supervisory special agent testified to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability in a closed-door session on July 17. The committee released the 65-page transcript of that testimony on Monday.

The ex-agent backed up allegations made by Shapley that President Joe Biden’s transition team was tipped off about the FBI’s intent to interview Hunter. The agent said he was notified the evening before the date of the expected interview – planned to be held on December 8, 2020 – that the Biden transition team had been warned.

“I was refreshed by the testimony of supervisor No. 2, and I believe he’s correct. I believe I – you know, and now getting into the frame of mind, I know I was upset when I learned about it,” the agent told lawmakers.

White House Claims ‘Zero Evidence’ Joe Biden Involved in Hunter’s Business Deals as GOP Hunts Bank Records

/0 Comments/in , /by

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed Monday that President Biden “wasn’t involved” in his son Hunter’s foreign business dealings — despite mounting evidence to the contrary as House Republicans seek bank records to prove it.

Jean-Pierre made the comment at her first briefing since Delaware US Attorney David Weiss was granted special counsel authority Friday to continue his years-long investigation of the first son, now 53.

“If you think about what Republicans in Congress have tried to do for years — right? — they have been making claims of, and allegations — right? — about [the] president on this front, over and over again,” the press secretary said when asked if Weiss might uncover evidence of Joe Biden’s involvement in his son’s ventures in places like China and Ukraine.

“And month after month, year after year, they have been investigating every single angle of this and looking at and looking for any evidence to back their allegations,” Jean-Pierre went on. “That’s what they’ve been do[ing] for years, for months, and we’ve seen it over the past several weeks. And what’s been the result of that? If you ask yourself, what we have seen from that? They keep turning up documents and witnesses showing that the president wasn’t involved, never discussed these business dealings and did nothing wrong.

“There’s been zero evidence showing otherwise. And so that’s what we have seen over the past several months. That’s what we’ve seen over the past several years. So I’ll leave it at that.” (Read more from “White House Claims ‘Zero Evidence’ Joe Biden Involved in Hunter’s Business Deals as GOP Hunts Bank Records” HERE)

‘Repayment of a Bribe’: Vivek Ramaswamy Backs Impeachment Inquiry Against Biden

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy backed an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden on Sunday, calling Biden’s aid for Ukraine “repayment of a bribe.”

“I’m also happy to go on record, heard you talking about it before, I’m on record going in favor of impeachment inquiry on Biden, because I personally believe the Ukraine war is indeed a repayment for a bribe made, now sending $200 billion of taxpayer money in the other direction,” Ramaswamy told Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo. Ramaswamy said on Aug. 6 that the billions in aid to Ukraine was a repayment for the money paid to Hunter Biden, according to NBC News.

Ramaswamy said he would “be open to evaluating pardons for members of the Biden family in the interest of moving the nation forward” after he fulfilled his campaign promise to pardon former President Donald Trump, the New York Post reported.

“Let me fast-forward to January 21, 2025, my second day in office, after we’ve issued those pardons, after we’ve set into motion shutting down the FBI, not just reforming it, actually restoring the integrity of our government — the question is, is the next thing that I then want to do, after we’ve sent our nation forward, is it to then focus my agenda on persecuting or prosecuting Joe Biden or his family?” Ramaswamy asked. “My answer to that question is no.”

“I’m going to be focused on stimulating the economy, ending the war in Ukraine, declaring independence from China. That is how we win as one nation,” Ramaswamy said. “So, no, I’m not going to be guided by vengeance and grievance, I’m going to be guided by integrity. But the first step to getting there is there can be no reconciliation without truth. We have to get to the bottom of — including that bribe, I believe, paid to the Biden family — how that is tied to our war in Ukraine and our support of that war in Ukraine, get to the bottom of that first.” (Read more from “‘Repayment of a Bribe’: Vivek Ramaswamy Backs Impeachment Inquiry Against Biden” HERE)
