General Hospital celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, and the show is pulling out all the stops (the Nurses Ball is back!)… But when a show lasts as long as General Hospital — the longest-running drama currently on television — the show is bound to have some storylines that don’t age well. During General Hospital’s presentation at the 2023 Television Critics Association winter tour, one of the most tenured actors on the series spoke about one of the most popular — and problematic — storylines, not only in General Hospital history, but television history. That storyline is, of course, the...

President Biden is taking heat after another batch of classified documents were found in the garage of his Delaware home alongside his Corvette. Constitutional scholar and attorney Jonathan Turley added that the White House is "not in a good place" in terms of handling the narrative surrounding the classified documents. "The problem is they gave the president a written statement, and then he decided to preface that statement with a uniquely ill-advised statement, saying that this was, after all, a locked garage where I keep my Corvette," Turley said on "America's Newsroom." "The Corvette standard doesn't actually appear in the...

by Jim ClaybornA Delaware home where Joe Biden says classified documents were kept in a garage near his classic car, may have been owned by his son Hunter, who’s under Federal investigation.Biden claimed that the garage was locked, in response to a complete roasting by FoxNews reporter Peter Doocy: Twitter users also highlighted stills from a 2020 campaign video in which Biden showed off his ’67 Corvette Sting Ray, questioning whether a garage featured in the video is the same garage referred to by Biden.

CNN Chief Business Correspondent Christine Romans had a hissy fit over House Republicans voting to gut the $80 billion IRS funding following their pledge to nix plans to hire 87,000 new employees over the next ten years. Romans flailed at House GOP “pass[ing] a bill based on a demonstrable falsehood. There is no army of 87,000 IRS agents coming after American families and small businesses.” Of course, Romans said nothing about how 57.3% of the estimated “86,852 new IRS” hires, “(49,754 in total) would be assigned to enforcement,” according to The Heritage Foundation. Romans instead chose to gaslight on the...
