Sen. Chuck Grassley implied the FBI may have defined the scope of its Hunter Biden investigation so narrowly, bribery allegations couldn’t be probed.Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, rarely asks a question to which he doesn’t know the answer. When the question concerns the politicization and weaponization of the FBI, you can bet some damning information rests behind his query. So when Grassley asked on Thursday whether bribery was within the parameters of Delaware’s investigation into Hunter Biden, it likely means the FBI defined the scope of the federal investigation into the president’s son so narrowly that agents lacked the authority to...

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) removed the “entire investigative team” working on the Hunter Biden case at the request of President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ), a whistleblower told Congress on Monday. The whistleblower has supervised the Hunter Biden investigation since 2020, the New York Post reported.

Former US Attorney Brett L. Tolman slammed the plea deal walking scandal Hunter Biden just got with the Department of Justice that will see the former crackhead avoid all jail time and not see any charges stemming from his foreign business dealings. Tolman said: “DOJ is violating its own internal policies on this case. The Ashcroft Memo requires they charge the “highest provable offense” and seek consistent sentences with other cases brought by DOJ. This prosecution is an absolute laughable joke. “Thousands have been sent to prison for long terms for the same charges. They are ignoring decades of policy...

As a physician I was told by the hospital there was a 90 minute meeting that was REQUIRED I needed to put on my schedule. Turns out it was a “seminar” of sorts. A guest speaker was brought in who was a consultant in communications. The reason (announced in advance) was the guest speaker was a being brought in as part of a campaign to “change the business model” of the hospital. Seems the “businessmen” realized the organization was suffering “from a lack of input by the physicians (insightful, eh?). There wanted to transform the model to include physicians in...

Lindsey Graham today at a Senate Hearing spoke on the Biden Bribe Investigation. Unbelievably, Graham says if the FBi is Investigating this, we need to BACK OFF! He’s a Senator, so he talks out of both sides of his mouth, but after not Investigating this years ago when the Republicans controlled the Senate, he know says Congress Needs to back off, if the FBi or DoJ says it’s being Investigated!

Washington reporters have been given the green light to go after Joe Biden. Joe Biden on Tuesday afternoon walked by a group of reporters after delivering remarks at the Chiefs of Mission reception in the East Room. A reporter ambushed Joe Biden and asked him about the Ukraine bribery scheme alleging he received a $5 million bribe from Mykola Zlochevsky, the Ukrainian oligarch who runs Burisma Holdings. ..... Snip..... New York Post reporter Steven Nelson surprised Joe Biden when he asked about the Ukraine-bribery scheme and audio recordings of him and his son Hunter. “Are there tapes that you accepted...

In a new twist in the investigation into the Biden crime family’s shady foreign business dealings, a former Obama official has come forward alleging he has evidence the then-Vice President Joe Biden was involved in a “kickback scheme” with his son Hunter Biden’s overseas business dealings. The unlikely source will add new weight to the investigation and further legitimize the claims that Joe Biden is a criminal. Mike McCormick, who served in the Obama White House as a stenographer for 15 years, said the FBI completely ignored him when he offered to testify under oath before the federal grand jury...

Whistleblowers have emerged over the last several years to accuse the Biden administration of mishandling the federal investigation into Hunter Biden, politicizing federal law enforcement agencies and shielding evidence related to a "criminal scheme" Joe Biden allegedly engaged in as vice president. Whistleblower protections are enshrined in federal statute, and federal law protects these disclosures. The protocol is for a whistleblower to first go to an immediate supervisor or the supervisor in charge with the issue at hand. If the whistleblower believes that reaching out to a supervisor could jeopardize his or her well-being or that supervisor is implicated in...

Federal regulators on Tuesday ordered Wells Fargo Bank to pay a $1.7 billion civil penalty and more than $2 billion in compensation to customers for what they say was "illegal activity affecting over 16 million consumer accounts." The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau said Wells Fargo "repeatedly misapplied loan payments, wrongfully foreclosed on homes and illegally repossessed vehicles, incorrectly assessed fees and interest, charged surprise overdraft fees," among other things. Thousands of customers lost their vehicles and homes due to the bank's activity over the course of several years, the federal regulators said. The $1.7 billion fine will go to the...

President Joe Biden shared a story Friday of conversations he had with his father and uncle when he was elected vice president, although both were dead at the time he claimed he had the exchanges. The president made remarks about his family history during a town hall event for veterans in Delaware. He said: You know, I — my dad, when I got elected vice president, he said, ‘Joey, Uncle Frank fought in the Battle of the Bulge.’ He was not feeling very well now — not because of the Battle of the Bulge. But he said, ‘And he won...

The sad reality is that the President of the United States, Joe Biden, is a pathological liar. This is not a new personality trait for our Commander-in-Chief, but a characteristic that has been apparent throughout his 52-year political career. Biden has been telling lies, including massive untruths, for decades. It is a major reason he had to exit the 1988 presidential campaign. He lied about his law school grades and plagiarized speeches from United Kingdom Labor Party leader Neil Kinnock. Regularly, Biden lies about his childhood, his family, his academic career, and his record as a politician. Does anyone really...

​President Biden, accompanied by family members, visited the gravesites of his first wife and infant daughter who were killed in a car crash 50 years ago Sunday.​ The president, first lady Jill Biden, daughter Ashley, son Hunter Biden and several grandchildren carrying a wreath attended Mass at St. Joseph on the Brandywine Roman Catholic Church near the family’s Wilmington, Del., home. Following the “private family memorial Mass,” according to the White House, they walked over to the church graveyard where Neilia Biden and Naomi, who was 13 months old at the time of the accident, are buried. The president, 80,...

This won't take long. You may have noticed that I really don't like Joe Biden. I may even have written about what a dirtbag he is. He is a plagiarist, a liar and a pervert. He took "inappropriate" showers with his daughter. He fondles little girls. He raised a perverted corrupt child and then he lectures us about how we should raise our children. On top of all that, he is galactically mendacious. Worse, he makes it so easy to prove. The Twitter files revealed that the Biden campaign routinely demanded that certain tweets and people making those tweets be...

Let’s hope House Republicans can catch a really potent case of the courage Elon Musk is demonstrating in exposing the collusion between Big Tech and the deep state—and soon. The release of the Twitter Files, for the most part, confirms what Donald Trump and his supporters knew in 2020. Big Tech drastically suppressed information damaging to Joe Biden—his son’s overseas financial dealings and the Democratic Party’s plans to ensure Biden’s victory with an unprecedented flood of mail-in ballots—before Election Day. The series of posts by independent journalists Matt Taibbi, Michael Shellenberger, and Bari Weiss reveal internal communications between top executives...

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) said Thursday he would not support former President Donald Trump if he were to become the Republican nominee for president in 2024. “Absolutely not,” Romney told a reporter during an event on climate change in Washington, D.C. “Look, I voted to remove him from office twice.” “And it’s not just because he loses,” the senator said of his refusal to support Trump. “That’s my reason that I offer to other people who are big fans of his. But it’s also [that] he’s simply not a person who ought to have the reins of the government of...

Sen. Mitt Romney has once again cozied up to Democrats by recently condemning his Republican colleagues who are launching investigations into Hunter Biden. Romney told The Bulwark, he believes investigations by the now Republican-controlled House are a waste of time and resources. Romney would go on to say “I think the American people want us to tackle some of the big challenges we have—immigration, inflation, and so forth—and the other things that divert from those priorities I think are a waste of time.”

Just when you thought our politics could not get more poisonous, a recent meeting in California suggests the past is mere prelude. The Washington Post, which revealed the powwow, described it as Biden family “allies” planning an offensive to blunt any investigation into the Bidens’ alleged multimillion-dollar influence-peddling schemes. Republicans will see it more like the gathering of the Legion of (Democratic) Doom. Some of the most controversial political operatives are involved in the all-hands-on-deck effort to protect the Bidens. The California meeting’s host was none other than Hunter Biden’s friend, agent and lawyer Kevin Morris. After Hunter was placed...

Gregg is joined by cybersecurity attorney Brian Finch. Just weeks before the presidential contest in 2020, the surfacing of Hunter Biden’s laptop posed a mortal threat to Joe Biden’s chances of getting elected. Incriminating emails contained therein offered compelling evidence that the father was complicit in his son’s elaborate influence peddling schemes involving nefarious foreign actors who were paying millions of dollars for access and promises of favors. So, the Biden campaign team and Democratic operatives —with a key assist from partisans at the FBI— applied pressure on the social media giant Twitter to block the story. The predominantly liberal...

'Missing' ABC producer James Gordon Meek has emerged from hiding – but refuses to discuss the mysterious FBI raid that brought his storied journalism career to an abrupt halt. **SNIP** The magazine alleged that agents spent ten minutes inside Meek's top-floor pad and found a laptop containing classified information, citing 'sources familiar with the matter' – but friends and former colleagues of the popular, well-regarded reporter say that doesn't add up. They point out that ABC has not made any legal intervention, nor voiced its support for the star correspondent, who is said to have cited 'personal reasons' for abruptly...
