What's that saying about actions and consequences? Former Biden administration officials should probably freshen up on it because they are about to learn a hard lesson. According to a new report, President Donald Trump has removed any claim of executive privilege regarding ex-Biden officials testifying in the House Oversight Committee probe regarding the former president's senility. Neera Tanden, who now spends her time getting embarrassed by Scott Jennings on CNN, was the subject of a White House counsel letter making it clear that executive privilege claims are "not justified." It goes on to "authorize" Tanden to speak openly and honestly...

It’s never too late to start eating better to prevent dementia, according a new analysis of research involving 90,000 adults. People over the age of 45 who followed a dietary pattern known as the MIND diet were “significantly” less likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease or related forms of dementia, said the University of Hawaii scientists. The MIND diet stands for Mediterranean Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay, and was developed by the late Martha Clare Morris, ScD, a Rush University nutritional epidemiologist. It combines the traditional Mediterranean diet with the blood pressure-lowering DASH diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension). It includes proven...

New York magazine writer Charlotte Klein is really annoyed with former Biden White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre. What bothers Klein isn't the fact that KJP was utterly incompetent as now attested to by her former fellow White House colleagues, nor even the fact that she is obviously grifting with the launch of her new self-serving book. No, what irks Klein is the word "independent" which KJP has latched onto with her announcement that she is leaving the Democrat party.You get an idea of just how obsessed Klein is by "independent" by the fact that she obsessively repeats that word...

The inventor of the Sarco gas chamber assisted suicide pod, Dr Philip Nitschke, has announced the creation of a ‘kill switch’ implant for people with dementia that would automatically release a lethal substance into the user’s body once they stop responding to daily prompts. Nitschke, who is nicknamed “Dr Death” and “the Elon Musk of assisted suicide”, has told the MailOnline that his ‘kill switch’ implant is nearing the test phase.. The device would be sewn into a patient’s body – most likely in their leg – and set to beep and vibrate daily to warn the patient to turn...

Fox News has uncovered that almost every pardon and act of clemency Biden signed for over 1,500 criminals during his final weeks in office was via autopen. These included preemptive pardons for several members of his family, Anthony Fauci, and General Mark Milley. But Biden made an exception for the man he once called “the smartest guy I know”: his only surviving son, Hunter. In the document below, you can see Joe Biden’s crooked-looking signature. As TGP’s Kristinn Taylor previously reported, Joe Biden granted his son Hunter Biden a blanket pardon in the federal gun and tax cases against him...

A third Biden autopen was discovered on Thursday amid a federal investigation into “who ran the United States while Biden was in office.” House Oversight Chairman James Comer is also spearheading a congressional investigation into Biden’s health coverup. On Wednesday President Trump directed his White House Counsel, David Warrington, in consultation with Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate “whether certain individuals conspired to deceive the public about Biden’s mental state and unconstitutionally exercise the authorities and responsibilities of the President.” Trump announced: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed a Presidential Memorandum directing an investigation into who ran the United States...

We saw it after Watergate. The parties involved with almost every aspect of the cover-up cut some sort of book deal. Woodward and Bernstein wrote All the President’s Men which amplified their involvement as members of the media. G. Gordon Liddy wrote Will where he accepted responsibility for his actions. John Dean penned Blind Ambition to paint himself in a favorable light. Most got hefty advances from publishers for their tomes, and a few got movie deals. After Watergate there were cries to prevent this kind of profiteering, but nothing was done.Now, with Biden’s mental collapse, we see the grifters...

Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said, “Mr. President, I want to ask you, last time you were here, you were actually fiercely defender of President Biden’s when people were questioning whether he should stay in the race and when he decided to step aside. You praised his decision to do so. t]There have now been a lot of reports, books written with Democratic sources talking about what appeared to be decline while he was in the...

Former President Bill Clinton, on ABC's "The View" on Thursday, said he didn't have concerns about former President Joe Biden's mental sharpness amid a slate of reports that allege a decline in Biden's acuity during the 2024 campaign and at the end of his presidency. "Well, I think you have to pay attention to them," Clinton said when asked about the accounts.

Joe Biden looked lost at a Waffle House after his bad debate with Trump on June 27, 2024. A man in a beige suit signaled Jill Biden and helped get Joe out fast.

People now wonder if he had more power than anyone knew, especially as Joe's health got worse. A former Biden aide said Bernal had “the most power inside the White House.” A book named Original Sin said Bernal was rude, strict, and tried hard...
