The amendment is meant to ensure equal rights for men and women in the U.S., but some interpretations of the text have implied it would erase gender distinctions and grant abortion protections. “The American Bar Association (ABA) has recognized that the Equal Rights Amendment has cleared all necessary...

The Justice Department granted a plea deal to a gang leader in MS-13, allowing him to avoid both the death penalty and a life sentence despite his admission to committing seven heinous murders. Jairo Saenz, 28, known by the nickname “Funny,” will face “up to 60 years in prison, and a minimum sentence of 40 years in prison under the terms of his plea agreement” when he is sentenced, per a Tuesday release from the Justice Department.

resident Biden rejected the idea that commanders in chief are immune from prosecution for “official acts” during his final Oval Office speech on Wednesday, an apparent parting shot at President-elect Donald Trump. ”We need to amend the Constitution to make clear that no president, no president, is immune from crimes that he or she commits while in office,” Biden said. “The president’s power is not unlimited,” the 82-year-old outgoing commander in chief argued. “It’s not absolute, and it shouldn’t be.” Last July, the Supreme Court ruled that presidents are afforded absolute immunity from prosecution for “official acts” undertaken as commander...

The Biden administration on Friday announced it would extend the temporary legal status of nearly 1 million immigrants from El Salvador, Sudan, Ukraine and Venezuela, utilizing a program that is expected to be curtailed by the incoming Trump administration. The announcement will allow Salvadoran, Sudanese, Ukrainian and Venezuelan immigrants who currently have Temporary Protected Status to renew their work permits and deportation protections under the policy, which offers a legal reprieve to foreigners from countries beset by war, natural disasters or other emergencies that make deportations unsafe. The decision is set to benefit roughly 234,000 Salvadorans; 1,900 Sudanese; 104,000 Ukrainians;...

Yes, he was being serious. Joe Biden is a congenital liar who can’t seem to remember anything, so I have no idea whether what he said he did a month ago is true, but apparently…Biden is lamenting his decision to appoint Merrick Garland because the prosecutor failed to persecute Trump quick enough and hard enough: President Joe Biden is quietly expressing regret about appointing Merrick Garland as attorney general. According to a report in The Washington Post, Biden believes Garland was slow to prosecute Donald Trump for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, and allowed for an...

President Joe Biden is signing a proclamation to establish two new national monuments in California, in part to honor two tribes, a person familiar with the decision said Monday. The proclamation will create the Chuckwalla National Monument in Southern California near Joshua Tree National Park and the Sáttítla National Monument in Northern California, said the person, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss the plans that were to be announced Tuesday in California.

President Joe Biden used an op-ed on Sunday about January 6, 2021, to lob political attacks against President-elect Donald Trump. Biden ran for president in 2020 pledging to “restore” decency and honor to the White House. That pledge appeared to fail once again after Biden’s piece was published in the Washington Post under the headline, “What Americans should remember about Jan. 6.” In the option article, Biden tried to divide Americans by reminding them about events surrounding the previous election and its fallout: An unrelenting effort has been underway to rewrite — even erase — the history of that day....

Joe Biden is not finished sabotaging his successor before he finally leaves the White House in complete disgrace. As The Daily Mail reported, Joe Biden has officially banned ALL future offshore oil and gas drilling in an effort to sabotage President Trump’s vote to unleash American energy dominance, which includes offshore drilling. Trump has also vowed to ditch Biden’s environmentally damaging ‘green’ energy policies. Biden announced Monday morning he is utilizing his power under the 70-year-old Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to block all future oil and natural gas leasing in more than 625 million acres of federal waters. Established...

President Biden is expected to permanently ban new oil and gas drilling in large sections of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, as well as other federal waters, in a way that could be difficult for the Trump administration to unwind, according to two people familiar with the plans. Mr. Biden intends to invoke an obscure provision of a 1953 law, the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, that would give him wide latitude to withdraw federal waters from future oil and gas leasing, said the people. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the...

The Biden administration is attempting to implement last-minute restrictions on oil and gas drilling in the west just weeks before President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration. On Monday, the Department of the Interior announced plans to pursue a 20-year ban on oil and gas leases in 264,000 acres of Nevada's Ruby Mountains. The administration submitted an application to withdraw the acreage from any potential leasing, which initiated a two-year ban on new mineral leases in the area during the approval process. The proposal now heads into a 90-day public comment period, which will fall under the Trump administration. "The Ruby Mountains are...

President Biden has announced he is sending an additional $2.5 billion to Ukraine

President Joe Biden reportedly wanted the Department of Justice to target then-former President Donald Trump for prosecution far sooner and more aggressively than it did, and regrets naming Merrick Garland as Attorney General. The report, published in the Washington Post on Saturday, echoes reporting nearly three years ago by the New York Times, which suggested in 2022 that Biden was frustrated with the slow pace of Garland, a “ponderous judge.” The Post noted: << In private, Biden has also said he should have picked someone other than Merrick Garland as attorney general, complaining about the Justice Department’s slowness under Garland...

BREAKING: Georgia Special Counsel Nathan Wade admits to collaborating with the Biden White House during prosecution against Donald Trump.

Joe Biden has issued a record-breaking clemency grant that benefits fraudsters, drug traffickers, cartel leaders, and crack dealers, court records show. The lame-duck president’s list of convicted criminals includes nearly 1,500 individuals who will have their sentences commuted. On Thursday, Biden announced he would commute sentences for individuals “who were placed on home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic and who have successfully reintegrated into their families and communities.” However, the list of commutations released by the White House includes several high-profile and dangerous criminals. One individual, Francesk Shkambi, was initially sentenced in July 2014 to 27 years in prison. According...

The White House has confirmed that lame-duck President Joe Biden is trying to funnel “as much funding as possible” to “climate change” groups as he can before his term ends next month. The Biden administration is seeking to rapidly disperse taxpayer-funded climate cash before President Donald Trump is sworn in to power. Biden is hoping to cement his green energy agenda before Trump assumes the Oval Office in January. In a memo released by the White House, Jeff Zients, Biden’s chief of staff, boasted that the president is pumping as much climate cash “as possible before the end of the...

The U.S. on Saturday announced a new $988 million military assistance package for Ukraine in its war with Russia as Washington races to provide aid to Kyiv before President-elect Donald Trump takes office. Trump's victory in the November election has cast doubt on the future of U.S. aid for Ukraine, providing a limited window for billions of dollars in already authorized assistance to be provided before he is sworn in next month. The package features drones, ammunition for precision HIMARS rocket launchers, and equipment and spare parts for artillery systems, tanks and armored vehicles, the Pentagon said in a statement....

Joe Biden’s senior aides are conducting a vigorous internal debate over whether to issue preemptive pardons to a range of current and former public officials who could be targeted with President-elect Donald Trump’s return to the White House, according to senior Democrats familiar with the discussions. Biden’s aides are deeply concerned about a range of current and former officials who could find themselves facing inquiries and even indictments, a sense of alarm which has only accelerated since Trump last weekend announced the appointment of Kash Patel to lead the FBI. Patel has publicly vowed to pursue Trump’s critics. The White...
