The Speaker of the House took the fall Remember last year when a Waffen-SS Nazi was given a standing ovation in the Canadian parliament in front of Ukrainian President Zelensky? It turns out that it was indeed Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau who sent the invite. As we reported at the time, the Canadian Speaker of the House was forced to resign following the incident where 98-year-old Ukrainian SS solider Yaroslav Hunka was cheered and honoured, with Trudeau refusing to take any responsibility. Trudeau effectively sacrificed Anthony Rota, with opposition leader Pierre Poilievre noting that “Canadians are sick and tired...

According to sources, the former Speaker of the House was in contact with the Secret Service on that day and was caught on video stating that she was ‘waiting’ for the ‘trespass’ on Capitol grounds. She was waiting for it, in her own words. Pelosi reportedly spoke with the Secret Service before they spoke to President Trump on that day and told him that they didn’t have the resources to protect him in the Capitol. There was also a communication trail between Pelosi’s office and the Secret Service from that day, but, of course, much of it has been ‘lost.’Additionally,...

The federal agency charged with protecting POTUS, the Vice President and their immediate families, as well as major political candidates and high level government officials, have opened the probe, according to Deadline.

While Social Security is set to increase by 3.2 percent in 2024, many seniors are worried about how the limited inflation adjustment will keep them afloat. In a new report from Atticus, a majority of seniors voiced dissatisfaction with the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for 2024. In total, 62 percent of the 400 Americans over the age of 62 in the survey said they were unhappy with the payment bump. "About that 3.2 percent COLA increase for 2024, well, it sounds good on paper, but, honestly, it's not quite cutting it for seniors," Christopher Hensley, financial adviser and the president of...

The trip to Canada by Ukrainian President Zelensky was meant to divert from his lackluster United Nations and US Congress appearances, and give Kiev some semblance of a victorious Foreign Relations moment.To do that, Canadian PM Justin Trudeau had his guest come to a special Parliament session, in which ‘he was interrupted by standing ovations seven times’ – as the MSM lore goes.However, Zelensky and Trudeau have unwittingly detonated a PR bomb that is hurting both of their reputations, and exposed the horrible reality of the Nazi ties of the Ukrainian ‘banderite’ regime.The unforced error was to bring 98-year-old Ukrainian...

A police traffic stop in suburban Chicago turned into federal charges after cops found law enforcement badges and about $800,000 in counterfeit U.S. Savings Bonds in the driver’s car, according to a newly-filed criminal complaint. Robert R. Krilich, 58, is charged with possessing a counterfeit U.S. security intending to defraud.

First, Krilich told the officers that he just picked up his car from O’Hare after returning from Las Vegas, and he believed someone stole his plates...

Furious Republicans said the Secret Service is closing the White House cocaine investigation without finding any suspects – and narrowing the culprit list down to 500 people. GOP Rep. Tim Burchett said agents 'just decided it's just some weekend visitor' and chalked up the entire investigation as 'another coverup' by the Biden White House. 'It's bogus' the Tennessee congressman added. 'That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in my life.' His comments came after the Secret Service briefed members of Congress, 11 days after the discovery forced evacuation and a hazmat situation at the White House. Since July...

House Republicans have called for an investigation into the Secret Service over what they believe were “bizarre” actions meant to help Hunter Biden, RadarOnline.com has learned. Republican House Rep. James Comer, who heads the House Oversight Committee, called for the probe into the Secret Service over their “bizarre” actions on Monday while speaking with Fox News.

Politico is hyping Joe Biden's campaign to portray Republicans as wanting to make cuts to Social Security and Medicare. But they have very conveniently overlooked Biden's very forceful urging of a spending freeze (or "cuts") to those programs in the past. Ironically, Politico covered the controversy in 2020 which involved the accusations by presidential candidate Bernie Sanders that Biden supported Social Security cuts.First let us look at Politico Playbook's very convenient memory loss about Biden and Social Security cuts in their Monday story about Biden slamming Republicans for wanting to make those cuts even though the GOP has taken it...

The United States Secret Service recently claimed that it has “no records” of anyone who visits Joe Biden while he is at one of his two homes in Delaware, thus rendering such information impossible to obtain via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. As reported by the New York Post, although Biden spent one-fourth of his first year in office in Delaware, in either his Wilmington or Rehoboth Beach houses, no information can be retrieved about anyone who met with him there for official business, such as administration business or lobbying, as well as family members or friends. “[T]he...

Secret Service agents were outraged last year by the White House’s attempt to downplay bite injuries caused by then-first dog Major — even trying to get President Biden to personally pay for a coat destroyed by then-first dog Major Biden, newly released documents show. Secret Service leaders also sought to keep attack details out of official paperwork — at one point rejecting an agent’s “excessively detailed” account to avoid upsetting the first family — after Major bit agents on eight consecutive days. SNIP They also show internal discord at the Secret Service, which has been embroiled since last week in...

Millions of seniors today rely on Social Security as a critical source of retirement income. And chances are, many future retirees will depend heavily on those benefits as well. But Social Security is facing its share of financial challenges that could have devastating consequences for current and future retirees alike. And if lawmakers don't intervene, the results could be downright catastrophic. There's a serious revenue shortfall at play Social Security primarily relies on payroll taxes (the ones we all hate paying) to stay afloat. But in the coming years, that income stream is expected to shrink. That's because baby boomers...

Russian billionaire Alisher Usmanov was sanctioned by the European Union on Monday. Two days later, Forbes has learned from three sources in the yacht industry that one of his prized possessions—the 512-foot yacht Dilbar, valued at nearly $600 million—has been seized by German authorities in the northern city of Hamburg. The ship has been in the Hamburg shipyards of German shipbuilding firm Blohm+Voss since late October for a refitting job. Sources who spoke to Forbes said that the German government froze the asset and that, likely as a result, Blohm+Voss employees who had been working on the yacht didn’t show...
