The House Oversight Committee on Wednesday launched an investigation into then-VP Joe Biden’s abuse of Air Force Two by allowing his son Hunter to tag along. GOP lawmakers sent a letter to the National Archives demanding flight logs for every time Hunter joined Joe Biden on Air Force Two. Recall, Hunter Biden received a $1.5 billion loan from the Bank of China after traveling on Air Force Two with daddy VP Joe Biden back in 2013 and the Secret Service redacted documents related to that trip. According to Secret Service travel records obtained by conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch last...

Vice President Kamala Harris was forced to switch planes on her return trip from Europe on Saturday due to technical issues on Air Force Two. Harris boarded a C-17 support plane Saturday afternoon following her speech at the Munich Security Conference in Germany. "Due to maintenance difficulties, the VP and the traveling party will depart Munich to Washington, D.C. on a back-up aircraft," a White House official told reporters.

Kamala Harris does not salute the military when she arrives at or steps off Air Force Two, unlike her predecessors former Vice Presidents Mike Pence and Joe Biden who both saluted the military, numerous videos show. In one video Harris seems more interested in fluffing her hair than showing respect to the men and women who serve the nation. While there is no hard and fast protocol on Presidents and Vice Presidents saluting the military, President Ronald Reagan set the modern era precedent by saluting the officers stationed at the steps for Marine One and Air Force One. Every president...

John McCain is finally getting his due respect from President Trump -- his body is being flown to Washington D.C. on an aircraft that had to be approved by POTUS. The late Arizona senator's casket was loaded onto one of the jets known as Air Force 2 -- which is often designated for the VP or First Lady's travel. As you know, 45 will not be attending McCain's service in D.C. ... reportedly because McCain wanted it that way. Still, Trump announced earlier this week he had greenlit military transport for McCain, saying, "At the request of the McCain family,...

James Biden isn’t a big name in the business of residential housing development, so what exactly qualifies him to work at a construction company and share in the winnings of a $1.5 billion project to build affordable homes in Iraq? If you said it has something to do with his last name, the one shared by his older brother Vice President Joe Biden, you wouldn’t be far off. At least that’s the guess of some Wall Street analysts who cover the Marlton, NJ-based company Hill International and think they’ve seen yet another sordid tale of crony capitalism. Hill has been...

Good thing there's a propellor on the helment, because considering they're for protection against head injuries, I'm not quite sure why he'd need it.

ROADS leading to Sydney Airport were cleared as US Vice-President Dick Cheney wrapped up his visit to Australia. Mr Cheney left about 9am (AEDT) today after a four-day visit marred by violent protests, arrests and traffic chaos in Sydney. He also faced intensive media questioning about Australian terror suspect David Hicks, Australia's continued military role in Iraq and a possible US-led invasion of Iran. The near perfect weather during the visit turned to rain today as the 20-vehicle vice presidential entourage travelled to Sydney's Kingsford Smith Airport and entered Gate 12A near the domestic terminal. Airforce 2, a Boeing 757,...
