White House Continues to Dodge Questions About Biden’s Classified Document Scandal

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre repeatedly deflected questions this week about the growing controversy surrounding classified documents that were found at the home and private office of President Joe Biden. . .

“Is the president willing to be interviewed by federal investigators about his handling of classified documents?” a reporter asked Jean-Pierre on Thursday.

“So, first, let me just say: I’m just not going to get into hypotheticals,” she responded. “This is something for the Department of —”

“It’s not a hypothetical question. There’s an investigation ongoing,” the reporter responded. “Will the president speak to investigators?”

“You’re asking me about something in the future, and I am telling you that I’m not going to get ahead of what the Department of Justice is going to decide,” Jean-Pierre claimed.

House Oversight Demands List of Names and Locations Linked to Biden’s Classified Docs

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) is not going to let the Biden White House off the hook after classified documents were found at President Joe Biden’s Delaware home.

On Friday, Comer pressed Biden’s legal team demanding a list of names and locations linked to the search of documents that were kept in the president’s garage and office.

The Republican also asked for a list of security clearance levels, and the job titles of any aid attorney assigned by Biden to search for the private papers among his personal belongings.

This comes a day after Comer said that the Biden Administration has a “history of covering things up.” (Read more from “House Oversight Demands List of Names and Locations Linked to Biden’s Classified Docs” HERE)

Biden Had Second Batch of Classified Docs at Another Location: Report; Liberal Media Dismisses Biden Classified Documents Discovery

By NBC News. Aides to President Joe Biden have discovered at least one additional batch of classified documents in a location separate from the Washington office he used after leaving the Obama administration, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Since November, after the discovery of documents with classified markings in his former office, Biden aides have been searching for any additional classified materials that might be in other locations he used, said the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to provide details about the ongoing inquiry.

The White House did not return a request for comment. The Justice Department had no comment.

The initial discovery of classified documents in an office used by Biden after his vice presidency was first reported on Monday by CBS News. (Read more from “Air Force Football Player Dies at Age 21 After ‘Medical Emergency’” HERE)

Second Batch of Biden Classified Documents Found at Another Location: White House Faces Even More Questions – After Karine Jean-Pierre Refused to Say if There Was an Investigation Into Other Stashes of Sensitive Files

By Daily Mail. A second batch of classified files from Joe Biden’s Vice Presidency have been found at another location, according to a bombshell report on Wednesday night that put the White House under more scrutiny.

The latest discovery comes just days after the first set of sensitive files were found at a D.C. office for his think tank and as the Biden administration dodged questions on whether they were tracking down any other records. . .

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was hounded by reporters during her Thursday briefing shortly before the article was published – and insisted that Biden takes classified documents and their retention ‘seriously’.

On Wednesday, Jean-Pierre was asked by reporters whether Biden had looked into whether he might have possibly taken other documents to any other office he has or his homes in Wilmington and Rehoboth, Delaware.

She refused to provide an answer. ‘I’m just not going to speak to this. I’m going to let the process continue. It’s an ongoing process. And so, I’m just not going to, to speak to this from here. It is more prudent and more appropriate for my colleagues at the White House Counsel.’ (Read more from “Second Batch of Biden Classified Documents Found at Another Location: White House Faces Even More Questions – After Karine Jean-Pierre Refused to Say if There Was an Investigation Into Other Stashes of Sensitive Files” HERE)

Liberal Media Dismisses Biden Classified Documents Discovery: MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Calls It a ‘Brief Flurry of Excitement on the Right’, the View Gives Joe the ‘Benefit of the Doubt’ and the New York Times Shuts Down Trump Comparisons

By Daily Mail. Liberal media personalities are dismissing and making excuses for President Joe Biden following the discovery of classified documents at his think tank in Washington, D.C.

These same personalities immediately tore into Donald Trump after it was revealed that he took classified materials from the White House to his residence at Mar-a-Lago in Florida. . .

‘We all know that Trump is a liar and a thief. We know that. So, it’s not that big a jump to say that he obstructed, and he lied,’ The View co-host Joy Behar said during Tuesday’s show.

She urged people, however, not to jump to those same conclusions with Biden, a Democrat.

‘We don’t think Biden is a liar and a thief, so we give him the benefit of the doubt,’ she said.

White House Pressed Facebook To Censor Tucker Carlson, Document Reveals

By Daily Caller. The White House pressed Facebook to censor Fox News host Tucker Carlson for saying “vaccines” “don’t work,” according to a document released by Republican Attorney General Jeff Landry of Louisiana.

“Since we’ve been on the phone – the top post about vaccines today is [T]ucker Carlson saying they don’t work. Yesterday it was Tomi Lehren [sic] saying she won’t take one,” White House Director of Digital Strategy Rob Flaherty reportedly said in an April 14, 2021 email to an unidentified Facebook employee, which was posted on Twitter by Landry.

Landry along with Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt sued the Biden administration in federal court on May 5, claiming that members of the administration colluded with social media companies to suppress debate on the 2020 presidential election, the COVID-19 pandemic and other issues. The court ordered the Biden administration to turn over communications between officials and the tech companies in July.

Rumble CEO Says Something ‘Really Nefarious’ Was Going On With YouTube Censoring Conservatives Around Election

By Fox News. Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski is taking on Big Tech censorship with his rapidly expanding video platform which has emerged as a popular alternative to YouTube since going public last Fall.

In the latest episode of “Tucker Carlson Today,” Pavlovski sat down with the Fox News host to discuss his commitment to protecting free speech and why he believes that mission has driven his company toward success as creators continue to upload their content to the fast-growing platform.

In a preview of the interview that aired on Fox News Channel Thursday, Pavlovski, a Canadian who described himself as not particularly political, recalled getting a phone call from then-ranking Member of the House Intelligence Committee Devin Nunes, who inquired about the features of little-known website. After learning about the details of Rumble, Nunes decided to upload his video podcast to the platform.

“Next thing you know, within a couple of months, he gets a couple of hundred thousand subscribers on his Rumble channel. Meanwhile, on YouTube and he’s been on there for four years…he only has 10,000,” Pavlovski said. . .

“You can call it whatever you want. Censorship, shadow-banning…the fact that an elected official could get significantly more subscribers on a platform that no one’s ever heard of in two months, and he can’t get more than 12,000 in four years on YouTube, that’s a problem,” the Rumble CEO observed.

HHS Secretary Urges COVID Booster Every 2 Months

With only 14% of adults choosing to get the new bivalent, omicron-specific COVID shot, the White House has launched a campaign urging people to get a COVID booster once a year.

A tweet Monday from Vice President Kamala Harris said: “One shot, once a year – that’s all most people will need to stay protected from COVID year-long. Make a plan to get your shot at http://vaccines.gov.”

The following day, however, Biden’s secretary of Health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra, tweeted that if “it’s been over 2 months since your last dose, make a plan to get one now.”

A tweet from the CDC account said the same: “Did you know you should get an updated bivalent #COVID19 booster at least 2 months after completing your primary series or last booster? Don’t delay, find a vaccination location today at http://vaccines.gov.” (Read more from “Hhs Secretary Urges COVID Booster Every 2 Months” HERE)

White House Walks Back Biden Statement Calling For Ban on Semi-Automatic Weapon Sales

The White House had to issue another correction after President Joe Biden told reporters that he was seeking to ban all semi-automatic weapons.

Biden made the comments while speaking to reporters at a stop in a fire station in Nantucket, Massachusetts, on Thanksgiving. . .

On Monday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre issued a clarification walking back Biden’s comments after reporter Philip Wegmann asked if he made a mistake.

“No, he was, he was talking about assault weapons,” she explained. “That’s what he was talking on that, on that morning or that afternoon when he was asked that question.”

The latest incident of the White House mopping up after a controversial Biden statement only gave more credence to questions about his mental competency to continue in the Oval Office. The Democrats’ relatively good performance in the midterm elections likely means that Biden will easily garner the presidential nomination for a reelection campaign in 2024.

White House Guide to Lying to Your Family About Politics at Thanksgiving; Biden Admin Releases Thanksgiving Dinner Talking Points

By Breitbart. The White House on Wednesday distributed leftist talking points for predictably insufferable supporters of President Joe Biden to use for attacking Republicans during Thanksgiving family gatherings. . .

The list tries to argue that Biden is actually “tackling inflation,” even though the cost of a Thanksgiving meal is up by 20 percent from last year.

It also tries to denounce Republicans in Congress as “EXTREME” because of their position on protecting unborn children.

The White House document also falsely claims that Republicans want to “put Medicare and Social Security on the chopping block” and “raise costs” on Americans by repealing Biden’s multi-billion dollar climate spending agenda.

White House Releases Thanksgiving Dinner Talking Points

By Washington Examiner. The White House is seeking to tout its agenda accomplishments from the past year by releasing a list of “talking points” people can use to discuss politics during Thanksgiving dinner.

“One last item for your Thanksgiving dinner: some talking points when ‘that Uncle’ comes ‘at you’ about [President Joe Biden],” White House chief of staff Ron Klain tweeted.

The list of talking points includes a slew of policy and legislative wins by the Biden administration and Democratic lawmakers, including measures on infrastructure and lower prescription costs that were signed by the president earlier this year. The list also touts the White House’s efforts to tackle inflation, noting gas prices are down $1.35 per gallon since June and that inflation has petered out over the last few months.

National average gas prices sit at $3.61 per gallon as of Wednesday, down from the $5.01 average recorded on June 14 — the highest average price recorded by AAA. Meanwhile, inflation rates came in lower than expected for the month of October as consumer prices rose 7.7%, down from the 8.2% recorded the month before, according to the consumer price index.

Here’s How Much of His Presidency Biden Has Spent on Vacation in Delaware

It’s no secret that President Joe Biden loves a vacation, and seems to prefer being anywhere but the White House even during national and international crises. Biden’s previous jaunts out of town saw him remain away from the Oval Office during much of the chaos that developed amid his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan — often returning to the West Wing just long enough to deliver a speech before getting back on Marine One to leave home again. More recently, Biden’s vacation to South Carolina while Americans struggle under 40-year-high inflation and a three percent-plus cut in real wages put an exclamation point on how little he apparently cares to project the image of a steady leader at the helm or empathize with Americans. No matter how it looks, Biden just can’t seem to quit his frequent, often weekly, trips out of town. . .

According to fresh reporting from — of all places — CNN, President Biden has been away from the White House at one of his two Delaware properties for more than 25 percent of his less than two years in office:

Some 21 months into his term, Biden has made 55 visits to Delaware, totaling some or all of 174 days as of Sunday, according to a CNN analysis of presidential schedules and a tally kept by Mark Knoller, the longtime unofficial statistician of the White House press corps. In addition, Biden has made 19 visits, or all or part of 64 days, to the Camp David presidential retreat in rural Maryland.

FBI Insiders Say White Supremacy Threat Overblown as Biden Opens Summit About Racists, Extremists

President Biden will convene a forum Thursday at the White House aimed at confronting what civil rights groups, local officials and academics say is an explosive rise in extremism and White supremacy that threatens the core of America’s democracy.

The “United We Stand” summit builds on the administration’s push to root out racially motivated domestic violent extremists. The threat sparked a sweeping strategy that included the creation of a specialized Justice Department unit to combat domestic terrorism. Mr. Biden will deliver the keynote address to highlight the administration’s response to hate and “put forward a shared vision for a more united America,” officials said.

Current and former FBI agents tell The Washington Times that the perceived threat has become overblown under the administration. They say bureau analysts and top officials are pressuring FBI agents to create domestic terrorist cases and tag people as White supremacists to meet internal metrics.

“The demand for White supremacy” coming from FBI headquarters “vastly outstrips the supply of White supremacy,” said one agent, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. “We have more people assigned to investigate White supremacists than we can actually find.”

The agent said those driving bureau policies “have already determined that White supremacy is a problem” and set agencywide policy to elevate racially motivated domestic extremism cases as priorities.

‘Devastating Step’: Biden Admin Speaks Out Against New Indiana Pro-life Law

The White House has spoken out against Indiana’s new bill that limits most abortions as it becomes the first state to pass such restrictions since the Supreme Court’s overturn of Roe v. Wade.

“The Indiana Legislature took a devastating step as a result of the Supreme Court’s extreme decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and eliminate women’s constitutionally-protected right to abortion,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement on Saturday.

“And, it’s another radical step by Republican legislators to take away women’s reproductive rights and freedom, and put personal health care decisions in the hands of politicians rather than women and their doctors,” she added.

The statement challenged Congress to “act immediately” to restore the protections of Roe. It also said President Joe Biden is “committed to taking action” regarding access to abortion care under federal law.

The new Indiana law is set to take effect on September 15. The restrictions against abortion include exceptions for rape, incest, and protecting the life of the mother. (Read more from “‘Devastating Step’: Biden Admin Speaks Out Against New Indiana Pro-life Law” HERE)
