Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) donned a Make America Great Again hat and shirt honoring slain Georgia nursing student Laken Riley as Biden delivered his State of the Union address Thursday. Democrats, led by Rep. Steven Horsford (D-Nev.), demanded that Greene remove the hat before Biden, 81, entered the chamber, but the Georgia Republican refused. ... “Say her name. Laken Riley,” read the T-shirt Greene wore under her bright red blazer. The congresswoman also pinned two buttons on her blazer – a “Say her name” one, and another with a photo of Riley. ... “Utter disrespect,” she said in a...

President Biden used his State of the Union address Thursday to blast Donald Trump, but stunned listeners as he veered from his script to mention Georgia nursing student Laken Riley’s murder last month by an illegal immigrant — erring twice by calling her “Lincoln.” Biden, 81, began his campaign-style speech by highlighting his best-polling positions — on issues such as abortion, NATO and the Capitol riot — but was derailed by persistent Republican heckling, including their demands that he say Riley’s name after the House passed legislation hours earlier in her honor to require the jailing of migrants who commit...

The Washington Post published a report Wednesday that the Biden Administration may limit arms transfers to Israel if it attacks the remaining four Hamas battalions in Rafah, a city on the Egyptian border in the southern Gaza Strip. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Israel must enter Rafah to destroy Hamas and win the war. His war cabinet is considering a plan to evacuate Palestinian civilians north of the city before a military operation. David Ignatius, a columnist known for his sources in government, published the story, likely leaked from the White House: The Biden administration, worried about...

Hillary Clinton says it’s time for Americans to just accept that President Biden is old — but vote for him anyway. “Somebody the other day said to me: ‘Well, but, you know, Joe Biden’s old,'” the former secretary of state recalled during a Super Tuesday interview on “Mornings with Zerlina.” “I said, ‘You know what, Joe Biden is old. Let’s go ahead and accept the reality. Joe Biden is old,'” Clinton said of the 81-year-old commander-in-chief. Still, Clinton urged voters to still back Biden, saying that mushrooming fears over the oldest-ever president — who would be 86 at the end...

Democrats are always claiming to be advocates of "democracy" and the "rule of law," and they of course are absolutely committed to the opposite. They are fascists in Democrat clothing. We've already seen this in the transparent lawfare that they have been using against Donald Trump--trying to throw him off the ballot, bankrupting him, and of course plotting to put him in jail. Now we have two prominent Democrats crowing about how biased the jury pool in Washington D.C. is, and how this almost assures that Trump will be convicted in the ridiculous case being pursued by the special prosecutor....

Left-wing election disrupter Marc Elias admitted Sunday that former President Donald Trump cannot get an impartial jury trial in Washington D.C. The Biden Department of Justice is trying to throw Trump in jail on multiple charges, including charges related to his speech about the 2020 presidential election on Jan. 6, 2021. Elias, whose legal campaigns are often funded by left-wing billionaire George Soros, posted a screenshot on X of a headline announcing that former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley won her first primary of the 2024 election in the D.C. swamp. “In a city of 700,000, Donald Trump got 676...

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. - This oceanside enclave is a lot like the rest of coastal California: Its signature pier juts into the Pacific as waves big enough to make surfers salivate break beyond miles of white sand. But when it comes to politics, this city of 200,000 south of Los Angeles loudly defies the blue-state stereotypes. Lately, the beach town has become a battleground, its council chambers a coliseum for culture warriors. The conservatives who now control city government have pursued policies that position Huntington Beach as the ideological counterweight to the state’s liberal leaders. In the past year alone,...

Ms Haley's victory on Sunday has at least temporarily halted Mr Trump's sweep of the Republican primary contest - although the former president is likely to pick up several hundred more delegates in this week's Super Tuesday races. Her success in Washington DC also marks the first time in history a woman has won a Republican primary.

Nikki Haley will win the Washington, D.C., Republican presidential primary, netting her first victory of the GOP nominating process, Decision Desk HQ projects. Haley garnered 1,274 votes to former President Trump’s 676 with all precincts reporting, according to DDHQ. The win for the former United Nations ambassador breaks a streak of more than a half dozen victories for Trump to start out the GOP contests for the nomination. It’s a much-needed triumph for Haley to show she can top Trump somewhere, but she still has a long road ahead of her.

Hunter Biden was paid $1 million by Chinese firm CEFC to act as attorney for their employee, Dr Patrick Ho, but now Ho is threatening to sue the first son within seven days unless he gets the money back — because he claims Hunter did no legal work for him. Ho sent a legal letter to Hunter last week requesting that their attorney-client agreement be terminated immediately and threatening legal action unless he receives a detailed list of services provided by Hunter and reimbursement for the unused funds, as laid out in the 2017 contract. Ho’s letter, sent by Hong...

The driver complies with his command, the dog sniffs inside and outside the car which is soon allowed to enter the parking garage. The man and his dog exit back to the right.This scene is unremarkable except for one detail: The uniformed man and his trained canine came within...

‘These revelations are extremely troubling and raise even more important questions about the DNC/RNC pipe bomb investigation,’ says Rep. Loudermilk ... WASHINGTON—A third U.S. Capitol Police security camera was turned away from the Democratic National Committee during the police response to the pipe bomb found near a bench at DNC headquarters on Jan. 6, The Epoch Times has learned.

'You have to have blinders on to not see that there have been problems'... WHITEWATER, Wis.—The migrants began to trickle into Whitewater, a sleepy town of 15,000 an hour west of Milwaukee, toward the end of 2021. Prior to their arrival, local news and political debates generally revolved around school fundraisers or the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater's D3 athletics. Today, residents are focused on their 1,000 new neighbors, who mostly hail from Nicaragua and Venezuela and largely keep to the shadows because they lack official identification. Locals say the real number of migrants in the town could easily be double the...

California Governor Gavin Newsom is in Washington, D.C. for the annual Governor's Conference. Yesterday he and other governors were at the White House meeting with Biden. As Newsom was schmoozing with DHS Secretary Mayorkas, hundreds of illegal aliens were being released in San Diego. Border Patrol dropped them off at a San Diego bus stop instead of at a local reception center that serves as a staging center. The local center ran out of money sooner than expected. The shortage in funding for the reception center happened because this area of California is experiencing a flood of illegal immigrants, thanks...

Below is my column in The Hill on the trouble brewing at CBS over the seizure of the files of acclaimed investigative reporter Catherine Herridge. The column broke the story on the uproar over not just her being laid off but her being locked out from her files. I am now hearing from CBS sources that the network is moving toward a resolution to turn over the files after the outcry. However, the concerns over Herridge’s firing and the network’s handling of her confidential notes continues to draw fire from journalists and commentators. The union issued a statement (below) after...

It has been clear for quite some time that the Biden regime, despite its show of support for Israel, is really on the side of Hamas. Now the regime is in serious talks to respond to Hamas’ brutal and inhuman murder of 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023 by giving it the biggest reward of all: a Palestinian state.If you are skeptical that Old Joe and his henchmen are really on Hamas’ side, consider the fact that, in November, they enabled the release of ten billion dollars in frozen funds to the Islamic Republic of Iran, Hamas’ primary financier. That...

WASHINGTON — Newly unearthed footage from Jan. 6, 2021, appears to show a rioter — a man identified in an NBC News story nearly two years ago — firing a gun into the air outside the Capitol during the attack. Online sleuths who have aided in hundreds of Jan. 6 prosecutions say he is the same man they identified to the FBI who is currently individual No. 200 on the bureau’s Capitol Violence page, which he first appeared on three years ago. Videos and photographs from the Capitol on Jan. 6 showed him with what appears to be a gun...

Documents discovered at the National Archives in Washington show that former President Abraham Lincoln pardoned the great-great-grandfather of President Joe Biden, a Union Army civilian employee named Moses Robinette, The Washington Post reported Monday. Joseph Robinette Biden's ancestral line has long been known and includes Moses Robinette among his paternal ancestors from western Maryland, but little has been chronicled about the man until his court-martial records were discovered. The story dates to March 21, 1864 during the Civil War, when a fight broke out in one of the mess tents near Beverly Ford, Virginia, between Robinette and Union Army civilian...
