Hunter Biden used Joe Biden's appearance at a Sandy Hook memorial service to arrange a meeting between his dad and his Chinese business partners, new texts reveal. The messages come from a fresh tranche of documents released by Congress on Wednesday, given to them by IRS agents who investigated the First Son. On December 12, 2017 Hunter wrote on the Chinese messaging app WeChat to Liu Yadong, a top executive at Chinese oil giant CEFC, to arrange a meeting with his father. 'Can you meet this evening early,' Hunter wrote. 'My father will be in New York also and he...

Anthony Fauci’s top adviser, David Morens, once bragged about “how to make emails disappear,” emails obtained by a congressional subpoena revealed. Morens — who works at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) — worked as an adviser for Fauci for more than 20 years, and it has been revealed that he boasted about how to make emails “disappear” in an email to EcoHealth Alliance’s (EHA) Peter Daszak. EcoHealth Alliance is significant, as it received a grant before the pandemic that later funded studies on the coronavirus at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV). “I learned from our...

Democrats had set their sights on impeaching Donald Trump long before he assumed the presidency. The media was openly speculating how Democrats might impeach him if he won months before the election. Once they had control of the House in 2019, it was only a matter of time before they ginned up a pretext for impeaching him. Bizarrely, they launched an impeachment inquiry over a phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Those charges stemmed from the accusations of whistleblower Eric Ciaramella, who took his claims to Rep. Adam Schiff’s (D-Calif.) office in 2019. Democrats accused Trump of...

America First Legal (AFL) has sued the Biden administration's Health and Human Services (HHS) department as well as the National Archives (NARA) for allegedly deleting the emails of former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) employees. Last week AFL took legal action against HHS and NARA for allegedly deleting files against the law from CDC employees' emails. In a press release from AFL, the law firm stated that it was suing "Secretary Xavier Becerra, the US Department of Health and Human Services, the Archivist of the United States Colleen Shogan, and the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) for...

FIRST ON FOX: A nonprofit legal organization filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration Wednesday, alleging it has deleted federal employees' emails in violation of existing statute.

EXCLUSIVE: Biden administration officials successfully pressured fact-checking website Snopes to alter its rating on a fact check it conducted regarding a potential federal ban on gas stoves, according to internal communications. In early January 2023, Snopes issued a "mixture" rating on the claim that the Biden administration was considering a ban on gas-powered stovetops, citing comments made by a senior official overseeing product regulations. Shortly before the fact check, Richard Trumka Jr., a member of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), said such a ban was "on the table." "This is a hidden hazard," Trumka told Bloomberg at the time....

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer on Tuesday accused the Biden administration of obstructing his impeachment inquiry, revealing it has turned over to congressional investigators just 14 of the 82,000 pages of emails that the National Archives located from Joe Biden's private pseudonym email accounts. Comer vowed to escalate his efforts to gain access to the emails in a statement just one day after Just the News reported that the National Archives had identified in a court filing a massive trove of private emails from Joe Biden's vice presidency. “The National Archives has identified 82,000 pages of emails where then-Vice...

2021 was the year that brought Hunter Biden's laptop into the limelight. What it unveiled was not surprising knowing the level of corruption in the Biden family. It revealed that while Joe Biden held the position of vice president, he operated a network of private email accounts for official business. Among these accounts, the aliases robinware456@gmail.com, JRBWare@gmail.com, and Robert.L.Peters@pci.gov were responsible for a whopping 82,000 pages of email exchanges – that's more than what Hillary Clinton deleted from her private server, as confirmed by the National Archives. But the real twist in this tale? The Archives had been keeping this...

The controversial ex-CEO of Barclays will pay a major fine after texts and emails showed the extent of his relationship with the financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Jes Staley, who ran the major U.K. bank between 2015 and 2021, was hit with a £1.8 million ($2.2 million) fine by the U.K.'s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and banned from holding senior positions in the financial services industry. The FCA released a 79-page dossier outlining its extensive three-year investigation into the U.S. banker’s ties with Epstein. Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 to charges including soliciting sex from girls as young as...

The staffer, who works for Senator Eric Schmitt, shared the details of the briefing on condition that he not be identified by name. Chinese hackers who subverted Microsoft's email platform earlier this year managed to steal tens of thousands of emails from US State Department accounts, a Senate staffer told Reuters on Wednesday. The staffer, who attended a briefing of State Department IT officials, said the officials told lawmakers that 60,000 emails were stolen from 10 different State Department accounts. Although the victims weren't named, all but one of them was working on East Asia and the Pacific, he said.

I am surprised that anyone is surprised that, as vice president in the Obama administration, Joe Biden used email accounts under fake names to loop his son Hunter into official US government business. This is how the Obama administration rolled. When high officials were involved in a dodgy activity they wanted to shield from public disclosure laws, they frequently used pseudonymous email accounts. That included President Barack Obama himself. As I argued at the time, one of the main reasons the Obama Justice Department whitewashed Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s criminally negligent mishandling of classified information, through the lawless homebrew...

New records released by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) reveal that Hunter Biden’s firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners, exchanged over 1,000 emails with the office of then-Vice President Joe Biden during the Obama Administration.As the New York Post reports, the records were released by NARA on Wednesday after a request from the conservative legal advocacy group America First Legal (AFL). At least 861 emails were sent or received by the Office of the Vice President during the period of time between January of 2011 and December of 2013, and over 200 more emails remain hidden due to the Biden...

Earlier this month, it was reported that Joe Biden “allegedly” used a pseudonymous email account while serving as vice president. According to reports, Biden went by the names Robert L. Peters, Robin Ware, and JRB Ware and used the email address “[email protected].”On Monday, the National Archives and Records Administration acknowledged that it does indeed have as many as 5,400 of these emails, which Joe Biden reportedly used to forward government information and discuss business with his son, Hunter Biden. What kind of incriminating information is contained in these emails? Well, we may find out soon. According to a report...

Hillary couldn’t be proven guilty without proving the president guilty as well. ‘How is this not classified?” So exclaimed Hillary Clinton’s close aide and confidante, Huma Abedin. The FBI had just shown her an old e-mail exchange, over Clinton’s private account, between the then-secretary of state and a second person, whose name Abedin did not recognize. The FBI then did what the FBI is never supposed to do: The agents informed their interviewee (Abedin) of the identity of the second person. It was the president of the United States, Barack Obama, using a pseudonym to conduct communications over a non-secure...

WASHINGTON — House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer asked the National Archives on Wednesday to hand over any unredacted records in which President Biden used a pseudonym during his vice presidency — as Republicans move closer to launching an impeachment inquiry into his role in son Hunter’s foreign business dealings.

Nearly a dozen current and former officials serving in the White House and Biden administration, including the president's national security adviser and the secretary of state, have extensive ties to Hunter Biden, who is accused by Republicans of selling access to his father, dating back over a decade. A Fox News Digital analysis reveals the extent of Hunter's potential reach in the White House, while the embattled first son is expected to make his first court appearance on July 26 for two alleged misdemeanor tax violations and a felony gun charge. The Justice Department announced last month that Hunter had...

The COVID pandemic was traumatizing for many people for so many reasons: illness, of course, loneliness due to lockdowns, ruined businesses, learning and developmental loss for kids, and much, much more.But of all the failed, draconian governmental responses, the mRNA vaccine mandates arguably caused the most harm—feuding families were destroyed, friendships ruined, and millions either bent the knee and unwillingly got a shot or got fired. Meanwhile, an untold number experienced significant health issues from the untested technology.Despite all this, the Biden administration pushed the jabs relentlessly and endlessly waxed poetic about the magic of mRNA, which they claimed would...

Hillary Clinton is reacting to former President Trump’s federal indictment by making a pitch for her “But Her Emails” merchandise. The 2016 Democratic presidential nominee took to social media Friday — just hours after Trump announced Thursday that his legal team had been told he was indicted following an investigation into his handling of classified documents — with a plug for her tongue-in-cheek swag. “Bringing this back in light of recent news,” Clinton told her more than 31 million Twitter followers. “Get a limited-edition But Her Emails hat and support @onwardtogther groups working to strengthen our democracy,” she added. The...

Newly-released records from the National Archives prove that attempts to bury any negative stories about the Biden family began long before the 2020 election, and even predate efforts to suppress the infamous Hunter Biden laptop story. As reported by Just The News, the emails in question were released as the result of a lawsuit filed by the nonprofit group America First Legal. The emails date back to the Obama Administration, in the year 2015. In one email, an aide to then-Vice President Joe Biden claimed that she convinced a reporter to “only use” negative information on the Biden family “if...

Democrats are increasingly worried that the controversy surrounding the classified documents found at President Biden’s Wilmington, Del., home and at his former office will loom large over his expected reelection campaign. While Democrats say they remain confident that Biden can overcome the problem, they say the disclosure of numerous batches of classified documents complicates matters for the president ahead of his campaign launch.
