    Ex-Spice Girl Geri Halliwell will join her beleaguered husband Christian Horner at the Bahrain Grand Prix today in a show of solidarity after leaked text messages rocked Formula One. Red Bull F1 boss Christian Horner broke cover at the Grand Prix on Saturday morning with no sign of his wife Geri Halliwell after his wife found out the texts were leaked as she was flying in a private jet. Halliwell, 51, and her husband, 50, had breathed a collective sigh of relief on Wednesday when Red Bull cleared Horner of inappropriate behaviour allegations which were made by a female employee....

    Tyler Boebert "supposedly made a sex tape" with a fellow suspect who was a female minor, according to an affidavit following his arrest. Boebert, the adult son of Congresswoman Lauren Boebert, was arrested on February 27 by the Rifle Police Department. He is charged on 22 counts, which include vehicle tresspass, property thefts and criminal possession of ID documents. None of the charges relate to the purported sex tape, which was alluded to by another minor police quoted in the affidavit. The same minor said the tape was sent around to people they knew...

    Breitbart ^ | 02/26/2024 | ILDEFONSO ORTIZ and BRANDON DARBY
    A doxing scandal started by Mexico’s President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador led to the additional doxing of two presidential candidates. The president also admitted that he didn’t care if he broke the law by starting the controversy. In the most recent turn of events, Lopez Obrador criticized YouTube for taking down the video of his morning news conference where the doxing took place. The politician claimed YouTube was censoring him and being authoritarian. As Breitbart Texas initially reported, the issue began last week when Mexico’s President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador used one of his morning news conferences to criticize and...

    Below is my column in The Hill on the trouble brewing at CBS over the seizure of the files of acclaimed investigative reporter Catherine Herridge. The column broke the story on the uproar over not just her being laid off but her being locked out from her files. I am now hearing from CBS sources that the network is moving toward a resolution to turn over the files after the outcry. However, the concerns over Herridge’s firing and the network’s handling of her confidential notes continues to draw fire from journalists and commentators. The union issued a statement (below) after...
  • The Missing Crossfire Hurricane Binder: President Trump Demanded its Contents Be Released – The FBI Wants It Hidden from the American Public and Will Do Anything to Prevent It’s Release

    President Trump declassified a binder on January 19th, 2021.The now infamous binder contains hundreds of pages about the Crossfire Hurricane scandal. It contains damaging information about the corrupt actors involved in our government. Two different DOJ Attorney General’s have defied President Trump’s direct lawful order to publish the binder in the Federal Register. It’s been over three years now, and the DOJ continues to defy the presidential order and every FOIA request to make it public. Can we now raid the homes of former acting AG Monty Wilkinson, and current AG Merrick Garland? (snip) Sperry also tweeted a list of...

    CNN — Why doesn’t scandal seem to matter anymore? According to one definition in Merriam-Webster, a scandal is a “circumstance or action that offends propriety or established moral conceptions or disgraces those associated with it.” Yet scandal in American politics doesn’t necessarily lead to disgrace (or at least disqualification) anymore. Former President Donald Trump tested this question more than any other elected official in modern times. As president, Trump experienced more moments that would traditionally be defined as a scandal than almost any other high official in recent memory, arguably surpassing his notorious predecessor, Richard Nixon. What was so notable...

    Judge Scott McAfee on Monday said Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis may be disqualified from Trump’s RICO case over her improper relationship with top Trump prosecutor Nathan Wade. The judge also said Thursday’s evidentiary hearing on alleged misconduct ‘must occur.’ “I think it’s clear that disqualification can occur if evidence is produced demonstrating an actual conflict or the appearance of one,” Judge McAfee said in Monday’s hearing. “The state has admitted a relationship existed. And so what remains to be proven is the existence and extent of any financial benefit, again if there even was one. And so because...

    We've had a couple of days to digest that damning classified documents investigation report and the Biden administration's disaster of a response to it. This morning I did some browsing around to try to determine where the dust is settling in terms of the White House, the Democrats, the GOP, the media, and even foreign countries. Karen already picked apart what the Biden team's response has been thus far and what will likely happen going forward. That will mostly be nothing aside from optics and cosmetic attempts (in some cases literally) at getting people to forget about it and go...

    Fulton County DA Fani Willis screws the pooch! But refuses to step aside Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis says she has no plans to step down from the Georgia election subversion case over allegations she’s having an affair with her lead prosecutor to whom she has paid $650,000 in two years. Her decision is driven in part over concern that her departure would effectively end the case against Donald Trump and his multiple defendants. Instead, Willis is preparing to counter arguments from Trump and other co-defendants, not by necessarily disputing claims about the relationship but by arguing that defense...

    Fulton Count Georgia DA Fani Willis used a legal filing where she defended her 'personal' relationship with a special prosecutor on her team to hit directly at the lawyer for a Trump codefendant who exposed her affair. Willis admitted to the stunning affair with special prosecutor Nathan Wade in her 176-page filing Friday, saying it posed no conflict with her role overseeing the case against Trump and associates on racketeering charges. But in between passages making dry legal arguments, she included a color picture of the lawyer who blew the whistle on her affair. She also dug up the lawyer's...

    **SNIP** In a filing from Friday, Willis acknowledged the past relationship with Wade, but denied that it presented any conflict of interest on her part, writing that "any personal relationship among members of the prosecution team does not amount to a disqualifying conflict of interest or otherwise harm a criminal defendant." "Defendants have done nothing to establish an actual conflict of interest, nor have they shown that, in the handling of the case, District Attorney Willis or Special Prosecutor Wade have acted out of any personal or financial motivation," the filing reads, later adding that, "District Attorney Willis has no...

    Harvard University’s chief diversity and inclusion officer has been hit with dozens of plagiarism allegations tied to her academic work — including one claim she failed to properly cite her own husband’s study. The Ivy League school was handed an anonymous complaint on Monday listing at least 40 examples of alleged plagiarism by Sherri Ann Charleston dating back to 2009 — a decade before she joined Harvard, the Washington Free Beacon reported. The allegations, which include failing to properly cite other scholars’ work and not referencing them in footnotes, come just weeks after Harvard University president Claudine Gay resigned from...

    Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade are expected to be subpoenaed due to allegations of an affair and inappropriate financial ties. These allegations have arisen in the context of a case against Donald Trump and his co-defendants. The case will have a hearing to address these claims, including conflicts of interest and mishandling of public money. “I think the real issue here is not this relationship. I think it’s more about the impropriety of having him on the team and having him present this to the grand jury and the conflict of interest in the...

    President Trump is now seeking to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the Georgia RICO case. Trump joined his co-defendant Michael Roman’s effort to disqualify Fani Willis over her illicit affair with a top prosecutor she hired and financially benefitted from. As previously reported, Fani Willis had an ‘improper’ romantic relationship with Nathan Wade, a top Trump prosecutor in her office. According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Fani Willis “financially benefited” from a romantic relationship with Nathan Wade, a top prosecutor she hired to go after President Trump. The motion was filed in the Superior Court of Fulton County...

    Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is now facing official articles of impeachment. Rep. Charlice Byrd (R-20th district), an ally of former President Donald Trump and chairwoman of the Georgia Freedom Caucus, introduced H.R. 872 on Friday. AdvertisementThe resolution, which clocks in at ten pages, accuses Willis of committing "acts of malfeasance, tyrannical partiality, and oppression” with the "wrongful" indictment of Trump and his 18 co-defendants. The resolution calls her actions "the severest case of gross abuse of discretion." Willis not only faces allegations of colluding with the Biden White House, but she also faces accusations of having an affair...

    The real story of Fani Willis isn’t her affair, even though the media wants you to focus on that. The real story is her paramour’s two meetings with the White House, and the two letters Fani received from the Biden White House Counsel. The hearing was to compel discovery, and these two letters were kept from the defense. “We did get a letter from the White House counsel’s office, your honor,” Fulton County prosecutor Alex Bernick said on Thursday. “It was about logistics and procedures…” He eventually admitted there were two letters. Why weren’t they automatically turned over? Under Brady,...

    Atlanta Journal and Constitution ^ | 01/25/24 | By Tamar Hallerman
    Donald Trump on Thursday joined a push to disqualify District Attorney Fani Willis from prosecuting Fulton County’s election interference case, saying her defiant remarks at a historic Black church showed “racial animus” toward the former president and his co-defendants. In a court filing, Trump’s two top Atlanta attorneys accused Willis, who is Black, of a “glaring, flagrant, and calculated effort to foment racial bias into this case.” That could unfairly prejudice a jury, they said, and violated Georgia’s rules of professional conduct. Trump’s lawyers Steve Sadow and Jennifer Little weighed in a little more than two weeks after explosive allegations...

    A current and former law partner to Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor leading the 2020 election subversion case in Georgia, have been told to expect a subpoena to testify at a hearing next month on whether he and the district attorney who brought the case should be disqualified over their alleged affair and financial ties, sources familiar with the matter tell CNN. The district attorney, Fani Willis, also is expected to be subpoenaed, sources say, and possibly others in her office. The Fulton County judge overseeing the criminal case against former President Donald Trump and his allies called for the...

    Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee has scheduled a hearing for Thursday in the election conspiracy case involving President Donald Trump. The hearing will address a request for discovery from Trump's “co-conspirator,” Jeffrey B. Clark, who wants access to records that could potentially reveal collusion between Fulton County prosecutors and President Joe Biden's White House. Earlier this month, Clark, who used to work in the Department of Justice under Trump, submitted a Motion to Compel, urging the court to order Willis to provide evidence of any contact she may have had with the Biden White House. The requested information...
