FIRST ON FOX: Hunter Biden traveled to at least 13 countries with his then-vice president father when he was leading his now-defunct firm Rosemont Seneca Partners, a Fox News Digital review found. Video footage, which first aired on "Jesse Watters Primetime," along with Secret Service records and messages previously reported from Hunter’s abandoned laptop, show that Hunter, who co-founded Rosemont Seneca in 2009 with Devon Archer and Christopher Heinz, accompanied then-Vice President Joe Biden during official trips to Europe, Africa, Asia and Mexico. In April 2010, Hunter proposed meeting state officials in Serbia with his business associate Mark Doyle, who...

Former US Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell Explains How Jack Smith Nearly Rekindled Conflict in the Balkans to Get Trump Richard Grenell was one of the Donald Trump administration’s brightest stars. The former spokesman to the UN in the George W. Bush administration, Grenell was named ambassador to Germany in 2018, and in 2020 became acting director of National Intelligence where he declassified information that helped expose the Department of Justice’s anti-Trump plot. Lesser known is the role that Grenell played mediating between once warring sides in the Balkans as special presidential envoy for Serbia and Kosovo peace negotiations. And...

U.S. Kosovo policy pits National Guard against Christian Serbs resisting rule by U.S.-backed Muslim Albanian mafia rewarded with independence; ethnic cleansing threatens.Always on hand to promote the American-made Muslim state of Kosovo, The Wall St. Journal praised Obama’s praise and rhapsodized in typical Slavophobic tones how in 1999 President Clinton “bypassed the United Nations and sent in the U.S. Air Force…President Bush stood up to Russian bluster and European ambivalence to push for its independence.…though Serbia and Russia have tried to undermine it.” The editorial closed with a straight-faced reference to something that elicits snickers among those in the know:...

Border: When the Justice Department sued Arizona Tuesday for the grievous crime of protecting its border, it did more than just signal a softer policy on immigration. It also put our national security at risk. 'A state may not establish its own immigration policy or enforce state laws in a manner that interferes with the federal immigration laws," the U.S. wrote in its complaint. But Arizona isn't "interfering" at all. It's just doing what should be Uncle Sam's job — protecting our border. Arizona should get a presidential commendation, not a lawsuit. It's bad enough that bankrupt U.S. states have...

Belgrade, 18 May (AKI) - A prominent Bosnian publicist and author has accused a Muslim member of the country's three-man state presidency, Haris Silajdzic, of fostering radical Islamism and of protecting Islamist terrorists connected with Al-Qaeda. Dzevad Galijasevic, author of a trilogy "Epitaph for Bosnia" and former mayor of central Bosnian town of Maglaj, said in an interview to Belgrade weekly NIN on Friday that Bosnia wasn't just a shelter, "but a base from which terrorists are being sent to western countries." Galijasevic, himself a Muslim, said the "Islamisation" of Bosnia didn't start during Bosnia's 1992-1995 civil war, when thousands...

MUNICH, April 6 - Striding through the parking lot next to his factory, trailed by smoke from his Cuban cigar, Johann P. Ackermann gestures toward a black Mercedes-Benz sport utility vehicle. The roof, hood, and doors on the passenger side are punched in, as if by a giant fist. The internal screws that roll down the windows are embedded in the metal of the doors. "A bomb exploded right next to it," Mr. Ackermann said. "Destroyed a building. But everybody in the car lived." He delivers this sales pitch in a brusque, homicide-detective patter that somehow seems perfect for the...

When the New York Times published the current government’s "National Security Strategy of the United States" last week, the American Empire – already a painful reality – became official. According to one review, "the 31-page document asserts American dominance as the lone superpower – a status no rival power will be allowed to challenge. And it provides a reason the world should accept this state of affairs: the expansion of peace and more freedom." Another review analyzes the "unrestrained arrogance" of American Empire, and the plan to reshape the world any which way it chooses.All eyes are now turned towards...
