A former business associate of Hunter Biden has contested Joe Biden’s recent denial of any interaction with his son’s foreign business associates. During a press conference on Wednesday, Biden labeled allegations of such interactions as “a bunch of lies.” However, one of Hunter’s former business associates responded to the President’s remarks by stating to Fox News Digital that Biden’s claim was “complete malarkey.” The source declared that there is “plenty of evidence” to challenge his denial. On Monday, the House Oversight Committee disclosed subpoenaed bank records indicating that Hunter’s business entity, Owasco P.C., had made direct monthly payments to President...

More concerns are being raised about President Joe Biden as a “dangerous situation” emerges for Democrats ahead of the 2024 election. According to The Times’ Thomas B. Edsall, voting blocs are slipping from the Democrats’ grasp. A recent Stan Greenberg and James Carville’s Democracy Corps poll found that: “The base of Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, LGBTQ+ community, Gen Z, millennials, unmarried and college women give [Donald] Trump higher approval ratings than Biden.” In the poll, Biden has also been placed in a 5-point hole in the crucial swing states. “This is grim,” Greenberg said, referring to the results. A recent NBC...

A German research body that tracks donations to Ukraine says the value of pledges fell almost 90 per cent between Autumn 2022 and 2023, with levels dwindling since this Summer, around the time of Kyiv’s ‘Spring Offensive’. Pledges of military and financial aid to Ukraine are now lower than they were before the renewed Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the Keil Institute says of its latest tranche of data published through its Ukraine Support Tracker programme. Noting donors have become “more hesitant in recent months”, Christoph Trebesch, a director at the Institute claimed “a further delay” to large...

“I don’t think white people worldwide have really reckoned with how much their own personal identity is shaped by constructions of whiteness, and how much that construction of whiteness prevents white people from connecting with humanity,”

Joe Biden may have to whip out the presidential pardon soon as his son is facing even more charges, including three felonies. The tax-related charges point to an “extravagant lifestyle” in which he spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on “adult entertainment.” As Collin Rugg noted on Twitter, this is just the tip of the iceberg: Hunter Biden has been charged with nine federal tax crimes in the Central District of California. Hunter Biden allegedly engaged in a four year scheme and “spent millions of dollars on an extravagant lifestyle rather than paying his tax bills.” Hunter Biden “engaged in...

The Biden administration has abolished the federal student-loan program, at least if a “student-loan program” is one in which students borrow money and then eventually repay it. What’s being erected in its stead is a scheme that’s rife with moral hazard, seemingly designed to inflate college costs, and best described as a “student-fraud program”—in which students borrow money, promise to repay it, and then … don’t. Biden’s loan-forgiveness shenanigans leapt into public consciousness when he tried to farcically read the 2003 HEROES Act to allow him to shovel $500 billion in loan “forgiveness” to his highly educated base and stick...

"But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. "Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. "Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven." ☰ Luke 6 (Other versions 1 And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples...

The Pennsylvania progressive's comments follow his staunch support for Israel's war in Gaza, which has also befuddled some of his typical allies on the left. As stalled immigration negotiations imperil U.S. aid to Ukraine and Israel, Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) is blaming not only Republicans but also members of his own party for what he described as a reflexive political resistance to a border security deal. “I hope Democrats can understand that it isn’t xenophobic to be concerned about the border,” Fetterman said in an interview. “It’s a reasonable conversation, and Democrats should engage.” Fetterman, a progressive favorite, urged Democrats...

Tommy Tuberville spent months casting himself as the Senate's anti-abortion martyr. Now that he's dropped the torch, nobody is looking to pick it up. Tuberville’s months-long blockade of military promotions not only failed to prompt a change in the Biden administration abortion policy it was designed to protest — it also failed to rally his fellow conservatives behind pursuit of abortion restrictions through new legislation or other tactics. As the entire GOP flounders without a unified approach to the issue in the aftermath of Roe v. Wade's demise, Tuberville's stand appears to have had no effect. “Look, I'm a realist....

Joe Biden made cracking down on tax-cheating millionaires a centerpiece of his presidency, even securing the funds to hire new IRS agents and auditors. On Thursday, his Justice Department branded first son Hunter Biden as a quintessential tax cheat who chose to underwrite an "extravagant lifestyle" with millions in foreign monies rather than pay his debts to Uncle Sam. In a sweeping grand jury indictment that levied three felony and six misdemeanor charges that carry 17 years in prison, Special Counsel David Weiss markedly increased the legal peril for Hunter Biden while also placing a dark cloud over the president's...

Okay, this is painful to watch. As Rittenhouse notes, some of these questions here are not appropriate in any way. In fact, I find most of the interview to be disrespectful.Anyhow, the reason we're here:Gotta give it up for Kyle on this one. Dude kept his cool more than I think I've seen anyone do during an argument with Piers Morgan. And actually, I don't think it was an argument at all, and that's because Kyle didn't stoop down to Morgan's level, which makes this all the better.Great interview, and considering how awkward this was from start to finish I...

On Thursday, New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez launched a major legal offensive in an attempt to address the online risks faced by minors. The lawsuit targeted Meta Platforms, Inc., its CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and associated entities such as Instagram, LLC and Facebook Holdings, LLC. This bold action seeks to prevent the exploitation of children on social media platforms. “Our investigation into Meta’s social media platforms demonstrates that they are not safe spaces for children but rather prime locations for predators to trade child pornography and solicit minors for sex,” Attorney General Torrez said in a statement. “As a career...

A student used to lead a rendition after certificates had been handed out at Bristol University. But since last year graduates at the institution — ranked ninth in the UK — have not sung it. God Save the King will now be played only when a representative of the Royal Family is present. University bosses have been accused of hating British culture and pandering to wokes.

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemActs 21Paul Speaks to the Crowd 37 As the soldiers were about to take Paul into the barracks, he asked the commander, “May I say something to you?” “Do you speak Greek?” he replied. 38 “Aren’t you the Egyptian who started a revolt and led four thousand terrorists out into the wilderness some time ago?” 39 Paul answered, “I am a Jew, from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no ordinary city. Please let me speak to the people.” 40 After receiving the commander’s permission, Paul stood on the steps and motioned to the crowd....

The last remaining survivor of Pearl Harbor's USS Arizona has recalled the 'awful destruction' inflicted by the Japanese attack that killed 1,177 of his shipmates. Louis A. Conter, now aged 102, was just 20 years old when Japan's warplanes entered the sky above the US naval base in Hawaii on December 7, 1941. 'Aloha. There's one thing you've got to remember and that's to remember Pearl Harbor,' he said on Thursday in a taped message used to commemorate the 'Day of Infamy's' anniversary. A 1,760-pound armor-piecing bomb struck the USS Arizona leaving nearly 1,200 dead when the ship sank. The...

Julius Malema, one of South Africa’s most notorious anti-white political figures, is threatening destruction if he and his ideologues don’t get a seat “at the dinner table.” Now, I’m not exactly sure from when this video is, but over the past few days it’s been making the rounds on X (formerly Twitter); it can be seen below: This is what it is all about:Well, let’s look at the facts now shall we? For decades, the South African government has made “land reform” a priority, which really just meant redistribution from white to black, and it’s been a total and utter...

Israel has designated a safe zone in southern Gaza, but its widening air and ground offensive has left Palestinians packed together in dire humanitarian conditions. United Nations monitors said Thursday that a hospital in the southern town of Khan Younis received its first delivery of supplies since Nov. 29. Aid groups are severely limited by fighting and restrictions placed by the military. The United Nations estimates 1.9 million people have been displaced and new military evacuation orders are squeezing people into ever-smaller areas. Most lack food, water and medicine. Around 1,200 people have died on the Israeli side, mainly civilians...

The grizzly bear population in the lower 48 states of the United States is the deadliest population of bears in the world. From 1975 to 2023, a population of under 2,000 grizzly bears has killed more people than all the grizzly/brown bears in Alaska.The current population of grizzly bears in the lower 48 states has grown to about 2,000 bears from the low of about 700 to 800 bears estimated in 1975. If the population has grown at a constant rate over the last 48 years, the rate of growth would be about 2%, and the average population over the...
