When President Joe Biden sat down with a podcaster who focuses on mental health, he probably wasn’t intending to be a case study. But that’s what happened with an interview published to YouTube on Monday, where the president fielded softball questions from British podcaster Jay Shetty. And made himself look worse than even his worst critics would have expected. During the interview, Biden repeated a by-now thoroughly debunked story about a supposed encounter with an Amtrak conductor who supposedly kept track of the number of miles Biden had traveled by train. (As a senator representing Delaware, Biden used Amtrak for...

Can anyone remind me why Donald Trump was impeached the first time? I thought it was because he asked a question about a potential opposing candidate, and that doing so was considered interfering in the electoral process. Wasn’t that entire act of Congressional partisan division based on one whistleblower who heard from his brother who heard from someone else, who heard half a phone conversation? Fast forward to today…. there are almost three dozen whistleblowers with direct, firsthand knowledge of the DOJ, FBI, and Biden admin’s wrongdoing. Joe Biden’s son kept a laptop with child porn, gun porn, emails detailing...

The Food and Drug Administration could authorize Pfizer's updated Covid boosters by the end of August, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said during an investor call Tuesday. The drugmaker asked the FDA in June to authorize an updated version of its Covid booster that is designed to target the XBB.1.5 subvariant, a coronavirus strain that began circulating widely last winter. Moderna made a similar request that same month. The requests came days after the FDA advised the drugmakers to update the shots to target XBB.1.5 ahead of a fall Covid booster campaign.

After FR searching, found there were absolutely no articles (title/keywords) on PEADs. I thought there should be. From the article: They have asked to see this administration’s Presidential Emergency Action Documents, or PEADs. The little-known, classified documents are essentially planning papers.The documents don’t give a president authority beyond what’s in the Constitution. But they outline what powers a president believes that the Constitution gives him to deal with national emergencies. The senators think the documents would provide them a window into how this White House interprets presidential emergency powers.

It’s not about Trump. It’s about criminalizing dissent and punishing the millions who voted for him — and warning them not to do it again.

Jack Smith is known as a legal hitman who has lost several high-profile cases at the Supreme Court. He managed to get the President of Kosovo imprisoned with no case, and he remains in prison now after three years. His wife Katy Chevigny is the filmmaker for Becoming, the Michelle Obama flick. Of all the people Attorney General Merrick Garland could choose from, he chose this man. Now we find out the judge who will oversee his case in Democrat D.C. was appointed by Barack Obama and has a bad history with J6. THE JUDGE According to the court docket,...

Regional electricity providers tasked with keeping America’s lights on warned Tuesday that the Biden administration must delay the retirement of fossil fuel power plants to give renewables time to catch up — or else risk major energy shortfalls. They said grid reliability would be jeopardized by quickly transitioning electricity use from coal and natural gas to green alternatives such as wind and solar. The transmission groups, which collectively deliver power from energy sources to tens of millions of homes in dozens of states, told reporters that extreme heat conditions this summer underscore the need to slow the closures of power...

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the...

A former Boston high school principal is charged with misusing nearly $40,000 in school funds for personal use, including two luxurious all-inclusive vacation trips to Barbados. Naia Wilson, who served as New Mission High School’s headmaster for 13 years, admitted to authorities she committed wire fraud totaling approximately $38,806 in the elaborate scheme, according to a DOJ press release on Tuesday. The 60-year-old educator allegedly started requesting checks from the school’s external fiscal agent account to be issued under other individuals’ names from September 2006 until May 2019.

Gas prices have quietly been on the rise over the summer as President Joe Biden and his administration have touted the merits of his “Bidenomics” agenda. U.S. oil prices jumped by nearly 4% last week, and the per-gallon price at the pump hit a national average of $3.75 Monday, the highest recorded average since November 2022, according to AAA and the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Continued increases may pose a new headache for Biden, who is promoting the “Bidenomics” agenda ahead of his 2024 run for reelection. Global oil prices are up 16% since late June, and they have increased...

Polling suggests most Democrats, Republicans and independents stand against Biden on regulating the items. President Joe Biden is facing increasing opposition for his ongoing crusade against popular household items. As of August 1, traditional incandescent light bulbs became the newest on the regulatory chopping block, effectively outlawing them nationwide. Under new Energy Department efficiency standards, bulbs manufactured and sold now must meet the “minimum energy-efficiency standard” of 45 lumens per watt, giving rise to LED bulbs that some researchers have suggested can cause health complications. Biden’s light bulb ban joins the list of growing home items the President has fixated...

The formerly unprofitable media was briefly boosted by Trumpmania. The Washington Post, the New York Times and a few national outlets and digital hangers on boosted subscription numbers and minted money. Post-Trump there was a major falloff but now even with the media able to promise a Trump comeback, indictments and trials, its flocks of sheep don’t seem to want to come back. The troublesome trend is spelled out in research by the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. For years, the Oxford-based think tank has been asking people around the world about their news-consumption habits. In its latest...

The beatification date has been announced for Józef and Wiktoria Ulma and their seven children, who were killed by the Nazis for hiding a Jewish family in their home in Poland. The Archdiocese of Przemyska announced Tuesday that the entire Ulma family — including one unborn child — will be beatified on Sept. 10. Cardinal Marcello Semeraro, the prefect of the Vatican Dicastery for the Causes of Saints, will preside over the beatification ceremony in Markowa, the village in southeast Poland where the Ulma family was executed in 1944.

Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe! “Fitch Ratings downgraded the credit rating of the U.S. on Tuesday, saying the country’s growing debt and repeated standoffs over the borrowing limit make it less trustworthy then before. Fitch downgraded the U.S. from a rating of “AAA” to “AA+” after several years of high-risk partisan battles over the debt limit. Those battles, Fitch said, have led to a spiraling national debt and...

VIDEOIt was obvious that CNN's Jack Tapper went into the interview with Trump's former attorney, Tim Parlatore, with high hopes for Jack Smith's J6 shamdictment. Unfortunately for him, Parlatore in a very calm and deliberate manner effectively shot down poor Jake's hopes and dreams which gave him a severe case of the Sad Sads as you can see.
