    Ukrainian police rightfully closed the investigation into the case involving the current US President Joe Biden. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. "The police closed the case lawfully," the report said. It is reported that criminal proceedings #62020000000000236 were closed on September 23, 2020 (a few months before the US presidential election) due to the lack of corpus delicti. "The applicant Viktor Shokin and his lawyers did not agree with this decision. They filed a complaint against the police inquiry officer in court. Having thoroughly familiarized themselves with the materials of the proceedings,...

    Lawyers of fifth President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko claim that NABU (National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine) has closed the case of alleged pillage of USD 100,000. The defendants in this case were Poroshenko himself, U.S. ex-President Barack Obama and the incumbent President Joe Biden. Poroshenko's lawyer Ihor Holovan said so as quoted by Interfax-Ukraine news agency. "As we found out, on January 25, National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine closed the criminal case registered on the appeal filed by an MP (Renat Kuzmin, - 112 International) and a group of lawmakers...", he said. The lawyer added that in December 2019, MP...

    Both the White House and the Trump campaign on Sunday said unequivocally that Sen. Kamala Harris is eligible to serve as vice president and blamed the media for fomenting unfounded questions about the issue. “Yeah,” White House chief of staff Mark Meadows said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “This is not something that we’re going to pursue … y’all have spent more time on it than anybody in the White House has talking about this.” Trump campaign senior advisor Jason Miller said it’s not something anyone on the campaign is talking about. “In our opinion, it is case closed....

    CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Police in Charlotte are unraveling a home invasion and burglary that ended with a 15-year-old suspect shot to death on a nearby street. The Charlotte Observer reported Wednesday that police have not charged 76-year-old C.L. McClure in Marcus Fluker's death. Police say four teens entered McClure's home Saturday. McClure was bound with duct tape and his wife held at gunpoint. The robbers left with some jewelry and a wallet.

    Normally I add a paragraph of two of explanation of my subject matter for the benefit of any readers that may not be familiar with the subject that I am addressing. In this case, if you have not heard of the Terri Schiavo case, I suggest you quit now and read something else. Maybe no other case in recent history, including the O. J. Simpson and Scott Peterson cases, has generated as much controversy as the Terri Schiavo case. I can't begin to count how many articles and opinions and I've read and heard in the past couple of weeks....

    EDITOR'S NOTE: This article appears in the March 8, 2004, issue of National Review. Ask retired Brig. Gen. William Turnipseed whether the press has accurately reported what he said about George W. Bush, and you'll get an earful. "No, I don't think they have," he begins. Turnipseed, the former head of the 187th Tactical Reconnaissance Group of the Alabama Air National Guard, was widely quoted as saying he never saw Bush in Alabama in 1972, and if the future president had been there, he would remember. In fact, Turnipseed says, he doesn't recall whether Bush was there or not; the...

    I paid no attention to the many television programs broadcast this past week on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of President Kennedy’s assassination. The reason for my lack of interest was that the questions about the assassination that had obsessed me all my life—and not only the factual questions, but the deeper moral and emotional issues left by Kennedy’s killing—were resolved for me by Gerald Posner’s 1993 book Case Closed. Here is a letter I wrote to Posner about his book ten years ago, shortly after the 30th anniversary of the assassination: December 15, 1993 Dear Mr. Posner: I...

    A NEWSWEEK article by investigative reporters Michael Isikoff and Mark Hosenball about the memo linking Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein dismisses a recent WEEKLY STANDARD report as "hype" and concludes, the "tangled tale of the memo suggests that the case of whether there has been Iraqi-al Qaeda complicity is far from closed." While it's refreshing to see the establishment media pick up the story, the Newsweek article is less than authoritative. The authors write: "The Pentagon memo pointedly omits any reference to the interrogations of a host of other high-level al Qaeda and Iraqi detainees--including such notables as Khalid...

    OSAMA BIN LADEN and Saddam Hussein had an operational relationship from the early 1990s to 2003 that involved training in explosives and weapons of mass destruction, logistical support for terrorist attacks, al Qaeda training camps and safe haven in Iraq, and Iraqi financial support for al Qaeda--perhaps even for Mohamed Atta--according to a top secret U.S. government memorandum obtained by THE WEEKLY STANDARD. The memo, dated October 27, 2003, was sent from Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Douglas J. Feith to Senators Pat Roberts and Jay Rockefeller, the chairman and vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. It was written...

    Gray Lady gets egg on her face Posted: November 21, 20031:00 a.m. Eastern © 2003 WorldNetDaily.com As Ronald Reagan would say, "There you go again." Last week, the New York Times downplayed a remarkable story, first broken by radio talk-show host Sean Hannity, about a memo revealing a Democrat Party plot to use the Senate Intelligence Committee as a tool for political gain. When the Times finally got around to reporting the story – 48 hours after it broke – the paper not only buried the story on page 12, it repositioned it from a blatant "scandal" to a mere political "feud"...

    Newsweek ^ | 11/19/03 | Isikoff and Hosenball
    A leaked Defense Department memo claiming new evidence of an “operational relationship” between Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein’s former regime is mostly based on unverified claims that were first advanced by some top Bush administration officials more than a year ago—and were largely discounted at the time by the U.S. intelligence community, according to current and former U.S. intelligence officials. CASE CLOSED blared the headline in a Weekly Standard cover story last Saturday that purported to have unearthed the U.S. government’s “secret evidence of cooperation” between Saddam and bin Laden. Fred Barnes, the magazine’s executive editor, touted the magazine’s...

    Who's afraid of the Weekly Standard? Everybody knows how the press loves to herd itself into a snarling pack to chase the story of the day. But less noticed is the press's propensity to half-close its lids, lick its paws, and contemplate its hairballs when confronted with events or revelations that contradict its prejudices. The press experienced such a tabby moment this week following the publication of Stephen F. Hayes' cover story in the most recent Weekly Standard about alleged links between Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden. The Hayes piece, which went up on the Web Friday, quotes extensively...

    THE DEFENSE DEPARTMENT late Saturday, November 15, issued a statement that began: "News reports that the Defense Department recently confirmed new information with respect to contacts between al Qaeda and Iraq in a letter to the Senate Intelligence Committee are inaccurate." The statement didn't specify the "inaccurate" news reports, but most observers have inferred that the main report in question was an article in the most recent issue of THE WEEKLY STANDARD--Case Closed: The U.S. government's secret memo detailing cooperation between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. "Case Closed" described an October 27 memorandum to the Senate Intelligence Committee from...

    October 8, 2002, 9:00 a.m.Case Closed The president’s closing argument. The president stood before 500 civic leaders in Cincinnati's historic Union Terminal like an attorney addressing the jury at the end of a difficult trial. The preliminaries had taken place long ago. The facts? Still in dispute, some say, but they frequently are in cases of this nature. He made the opening statement before the United Nations on September 12, only blocks from the site of one of the attacks that had helped bring the case to trial. A month of debate followed, at times rancorous, other times staid, but...
