Taxpayers will pick up the majority of cost for Jill Biden's whirlwind flights between Wilmington, Delaware, and France so she could be at son Hunter's side during his federal gun trial although the Democratic Party will chip in some funds. The first lady racked up $345,400 in flight costs, the National Taxpayers Union Foundation estimated, as she boomeranged between the United States and France last week, traveling separately from husband Joe Biden so she could support her family at home while also representing the United States abroad. Her political party will repay the government for what it would cost for...

Smoking gun text messages show Hunter set up a meeting with a convicted drug dealer the night before he bought a .38 revolver. He purchased the Colt Cobra .38 Special revolver on October 12, 2018 by claiming on a federal form that he wasn’t abusing drugs – a lie for which he is now on trial in Delaware. The day before the gun purchase, Hunter texted violent, convicted drug dealer Eladio Otero Jr. to ‘meet me 7/11 at 3’, according to records from the First Son’s abandoned laptop.

"There is an old trial lawyers saying: 'When the facts are on your side, pound the facts. When the law is on your side, pound the law. When neither is on you side, pound the table.'” -- Patrick Buchanan, 1975 When it comes to making the case for Hunter Biden, Mika Brzezinski has managed to devise an alternative to pounding the table when the facts and the law are against you. On today's Morning Joe, Mika repeatedly got choked up when discussing the trials and tribulations of Hunter, and the Biden family at large.Get the rest of the story and...

History is full of horrible, evil people – Charles Manson, Adolf Hitler, Hillary Clinton – but only one of them comes from a family completely devoid of any members with any redeeming qualities. While that may seem a bit harsh on Chelsea, the truth is often harsh. With that in mind, we must acknowledge the unvarnished truth that the Biden family is atop that list. Is there anyone in that family who isn’t repugnant? The only people associated with the family who run the risk of not being total sleaze and, therefore, run the risk of having any redeeming qualities...

Now that former President Donald Trump's trial has wrapped up, all eyes are on Hunter Biden, who's facing trial in Delaware for federal gun charges. The sitting president's son is the first child of a president to be indicted on federal charges. According to Breitbart, Hunter Biden might have something to worry about, as the judge overseeing the case previously sentenced someone in a similar case to one year of prison. [snip] Judge Maryellen Noreika has experience sentencing defendants with similar crimes, including an instance recently in which she sentenced Zhi Dong for lying on his federal background check form...

Lunden Roberts, the mother of Hunter Biden’s daughter, Navy, claimed Friday her phones “crashed” and “just about everything” with Hunter Biden on the device was “gone” after she discovered she was pregnant. Roberts claimed to Sirius XM’s Megyn Kelly that both of her cellphone screens “crashed” at the same time in front of both she and her friends the night she learned she was pregnant with Navy. Yes. It looks like a total meltdown,” Kelly said. Roberts said “a lot of stuff” involving Hunter Biden was missing from her iCloud when she got a new phone the next day. “Just...

The gun trial for Hunter Biden will likely wrap up early next week as the prosecution rested its case on Friday. The defense expects to call about two to three witnesses, including an employee of the gun store at which Hunter purchased a firearm while allegedly being an active drug abuser, Hunter’s uncle James Biden and Hunter’s daughter Naomi Biden. Naomi took the stand Friday afternoon and testified that her father seemed “hopeful” in October 2018, the month he purchased the gun, and that she did not personally observe any drug paraphernalia or other signs of abuse in her father’s...

You'd have to be some sort of hick from the sticks to take a Hunter Biden criminal conviction into account in deciding on your 2024 presidential vote. That was Molly Jong-Fast's gist on today's Way Too Early, the Morning Joe pregame show. When host Jonathan Lemire asked the MSNBC political analyst whether there could be a negative political impact for Joe Biden stemming from a Hunter conviction, she suggested only hayseeds who can't make fine moral distinctions could be misled: "Yeah, I mean, I think, look, you know, there are low-information voters who are like, oh, they're both in trouble...

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said Thursday he was shocked by how quickly Hunter Biden’s various defenses in his gun trial have “collapsed.” Biden’s trial began Monday and he is confronting three federal gun charges brought by Special Counsel David Weiss in September, which include providing false statements and knowingly possessing a gun while being addicted to drugs. Turley asserted on “America’s Newsroom” that the prosecution effectively countered Biden attorney Abbe Lowell’s argument that his client’s laptop, which is a key piece of evidence in the trial, is not fully authentic as well as the argument that Biden...

House committees issued criminal referrals to the Justice Department concerning Hunter Biden’s and James Biden’s alleged “false statements to Congress” about key aspects of the impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden, Breitbart News learned Wednesday. The alleged false statements have to do with Joe Biden’s knowledge of and role in his family’s influence peddling schemes and appear to be a calculated effort to shield the president from the impeachment inquiry, Oversight Chair James Comer (R-KY), Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Ways and Means Chair Jason Smith (R-MO) told Breitbart News. Hunter allegedly falsely suggested he was not the corporate...

Hunter Biden’s federal gun trial began Monday morning in Delaware, and by the end of the day, attorneys chose a jury of 12 with four alternates.

Hunter Biden’s wife lashed out at a one-time adviser for former President Donald Trump Tuesday, calling him a “Nazi piece of $$#$” during a break in the first son’s federal trial on gun charges.

Ziegler – who had been on his way back into the Wilmington, Del. courtroom – didn’t respond to...

How do you spot a psychopath? According to one new study, there’s one recognisable sign. New research suggests that levels of head movement during a conversation could be an indicator. Scientists researching in New Mexico conducted a study by observing recordings of women in police interviews. Just like with men, they found that the most psychopathic among those interviewed kept their heads very still during conversation. Researchers at the University of New Mexico's Department of Psychology in Albuquerque claim to have conducted the first study into indicators of psychopaths in women. They said in the study, Personality and Individual Differences:...

Jack Poso 🇺🇸 @JackPosobiec BREAKING: Federal prosecutors just entered Hunter Biden's laptop as evidence in the case against him Remember when the entire media, the intel community, and his father told us all it was fake in 2020 and Twitter censored anyone talking about it?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Releasing an audio recording of a special counsel’s interview with President Joe Biden could spur deepfakes and disinformation that trick Americans, the Justice Department said, conceding the U.S. government could not stop the misuse of artificial intelligence ahead of this year’s election. A senior Justice Department official raised the concerns in a court filing on Friday that sought to justify keeping the recording under wraps. The Biden administration is seeking to convince a judge to prevent the release of the recording of the president’s interview, which focused on his handling of classified documents. The admission highlights the...

flew into Wilmington, Del., on Sunday night, where his 54-year-old son’s felony gun trial begins Monday, and will spend the whole day there with no official duties. Joe Biden’s looming presence in the strange small city leaves nobody in any doubt of the message he is sending to Delaware special counsel David Weiss, the prosecutors, the judge, and the jury pool being chosen Monday: You mess with my son, you mess with me. It’s all very subtle, in a flagrant way, much like Joe’s impromptu visit to Hallie Biden, the widow of Beau and former lover of Hunter, just nine...

The jury selection for Hunter Biden’s gun case finalized on Monday with 12 jurists and four alternates. The jury is split evenly between men and women, but all four alternates are women. Both the prosecution and the defense struck several potential jurists from the initial jury pool. Among those struck were individuals who volunteered for Hillary Clinton, who read the Guardian and watch CNN, and one who had met John “Jack” Owens, Joe Biden’s brother-in-law, when she was a bartender. According to NBC News, the jurists who remain are: #3: A woman who watches “CBS Evening News” every night #5:...
