"A Secret Service whistleblower has come forward with a shocking allegation: former President Joe Biden was so mentally impaired during his time in the White House that he would “get lost in his closet,” according to Sen. Josh Hawley. On Friday, Hawley revealed the disturbing claim as part of a broader accusation that Democrats engaged in a deliberate cover-up of Biden’s cognitive decline—what he now calls one of the most egregious political scandals in modern presidential history."

"Article III Project" founder Mike Davis and "War Room" host Steve Bannon comment on the role the Federalist Society and its chairman Leonard Leo played in the first Trump administration and how this term will be different.MIKE DAVIS: Yeah, when you have Leonard Leo taking over a billion dollars—I think it was like $1.6 billion—from a billionaire who gave him his fortune, Barre Seid, and then Leonard sat on the sidelines with all that money for three years of lawfare and didn’t support groups that were helping President Trump with the lawfare.He actually had guys out there like Ed Whelan,...

As the ongoing court case with President Trump over the Kamala Harris pre-election interview continues, CBS and parent company Paramount Global are becoming more mired in trauma. This week, the announcement was that in their desire to end the process, and facilitate a pending corporate merger, Paramount was offering a $15 million settlement. Trump has rejected that outright. He has called for the sum to be $25 million, but that may not be the hitch in getting an agreement, given this is holding up the merger valued at roughly $8 billion. It appears that his demand for full retraction and...

The state is taking action against Leo Human Services following a KARE 11 investigation uncovering alleged forgeries and false billing claims.

According to sources, a stern President Trump took the Fed head, Jay Powell, to the woodshed yesterday during their Oval Office meeting.Mr. Trump wants the Fed to lower its target rate. And equally, of course, Mr. Powell has stubbornly avoided any policy changes.You know what? Mr. Trump is right.The latest inflation report out today shows the Fed’s favorite measure, the personal consumption deflator, has risen only 2.1 percent annually over the past three months, and the same 2.1 percent over the past 12 months.The Fed’s target is 2 percent.So, you would think Mr. Powell & Co. would at least be...

It isn’t Trump, it is ‘the people.’ American politics’ great irony is that Democrats hold populism in contempt. Definitionally, historically, and rhetorically, Democrats drape themselves in “the people.” Yet somehow, populism is now a pejorative for their party. The answer lies in the separation that populism implies and the other side of the divide, the elite, whom Democrats now embrace.Populus means “the people.” A populist is one who appeals to the people. In a democracy, being of and appealing to the people is hardly exceptional. It is a political fact of life.Even in a republic like ours, the people are...

The terror group has agreed to a partial hostage release but calls for a permanent truce, aid access, and Israeli military pullout.The Hamas terrorist group said Saturday it had issued a formal response to a U.S.-backed cease-fire proposal that would pause the war in Gaza for at least 60 days and secure the release of about half of the remaining hostages.The group said in a statement issued on its Telegram channel on May 31 that, under the deal, it will release 10 living hostages and 18 bodies in return for Israel’s release of an “agreed-upon number of Palestinian prisoners.”Hamas’s announcement...

Democrats launch $20 million quest to win over male voters by studying liberal men in their native habitats.The New York Times, a former newspaper, has obtained a document from the Democrat party outlining their plan to spend $20 million in an effort to win back male voters. The effort is being hailed as a continuation of the great Democrat tradition of wasting money without even beginning to solve a problem created by their own stupid ideas. The document, entitled “How to Make Toxic Men Love Us Even As we Castrate their Sons and Turn Their Women into Fractious Whores,” includes...

A pro-energy group scrutinized eight of former President Joe Biden's executive orders which pertained to climate and energy issues, but their research found no evidence that Biden ever spoke publicly about the contents of the climate change-oriented EOs. The group also asserts that the signatures on the EOs match Biden's autopen signature instead of his genuine signature, thus calling into question whether the president ever knew about the executive orders. Power the Future, the organization who examined the orders, is now urging investigations from multiple bodies to determine if Biden knew of the executive orders and, if not, who did,...

How could it not raise eyebrows? Donald Trump is set to invest some $5.5 billion in Qatar, according to news reports, and he’s just received a $400 million jet from the Qataris.This is the same Qatar that unabashedly hosted Hamas leaders, and funds the terror organization into the billions of dollars. It’s the same oil-rich country that is bankrolling Al Jazeera, a channel virtually synonymous with Jihadist propaganda, and that is also being sued for having alleged terror ties. To top it off, Qatar’s Deputy Prime Minister has a history of pro-Hamas tweets.Yet, if Qatar’s place in the world could...

If the judicial branch won’t adhere to the Constitution, then Trump must.The leftist-backed effort to effectively nullify the results of the 2024 presidential election via a judicial coup is destroying the country’s constitutional order. But according to the White House, President Trump doesn’t have any actual plans to stop it. During Thursday’s White House press briefing, Federalist Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway had the opportunity to ask Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt about how the administration intends to rein in “rogue lower court judges” grinding the administration’s policies to a halt with overreaching injunctions and temporary restraining orders. After noting the Supreme Court...

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said on Friday she agrees with President Donald Trump’s call to eliminate the debt limit, urging bipartisan action to scrap it permanently. In a post on X, Warren wrote: “@realDonaldTrump and I agree: the debt limit should be scrapped to prevent an economic catastrophe.” “Let’s pass a bipartisan bill and get rid of it forever,” she added. The senator also said “jacking up the debt limit by $4 trillion to fund more tax breaks for billionaires is an outrage,” in an attack on a GOP-backed tax bill to enact Trump’s priorities. Warren’s post cited comments Trump...

Self-interested Wall Street analysts and leftist economic ‘experts’ once again proven wrong. It is almost impossible to find any financial data review written objectively by media. Everything is skewed with a negative tone, yet the data clearly shows -just like 2017- President Trump’s MAGAnomic policy benefits are starting to surface. News pundits said President Trump’s tariff policies would skyrocket prices. In reality the yearly inflation rate [BLS data] has dropped to 2.1%, the lowest in four years. Core prices (removing food and energy) rose 2.5% from a year earlier, below the March figure of 2.7%, and the lowest in more...

The FBI determined that Fusion GPS -- hired by Clinton's campaign -- likely served as a coordinating hub for creating several bogus Trump-Russia dossiers, and noted an unusually cozy relationship between Fusion GPS and the Department of Justice. A newly declassified FBI memo detailing the findings of its probe into Fusion GPS contractor Nellie Ohr about the veracity of her testimony to Congress delivers new details about the Hillary Clinton campaign’s fingerprints on the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation. The New York Post reported that Ohr, the wife of a former Justice Department official, gave “demonstrably false” testimony to Congress...

A lefty Upper West Side councilwoman is demanding free dental care for illegal immigrants — and revealed she’s shelled out more than $8,000 of her own dough to keep their pearly whites intact. “Is someone paying attention to all of their health needs!” Councilwoman Gale Brewer (D-Manhattan) roared at NYC Health Department officials during a May 23 budget hearing. “They have a lot of health needs. Forget the dental! I’m already out $8,000-$10,000 on the dental. So who is paying attention to them?” she scolded.

Benefits claims by households with at least one foreign national have doubled to nearly £1 billion a month in the past three years, government figures show. Households with at least one claimant who is a foreign national received £941 million in March this year, up from £461 million in March 2022, representing nearly a sixth of the month’s Universal Credit payments. The figures are likely to reinforce calls for restrictions on benefits for migrants, which Angela Rayner, the Deputy Prime Minister, urged Rachel Reeves to consider in a leaked memo seen by The Telegraph. Ms Reeves, the Chancellor, is already...

Establishment Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is giving is “more proof of who he is” with his recent visit to Ukraine, the senator’s GOP challenger, businessman Mark Lynch, said during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday. Host and Breitbart News Washington Bureau Chief Matthew Boyle asked Lynch to respond to the fact that Graham recently traveled to Ukraine to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. “I mean, yesterday we were talking about it. When did he become our Secretary of State?” Lynch asked. “You know, like you said, a week ago, Zelensky and Lindsey were left there by themselves. Putin and...

As The Daily Mail reported, several LGBTQ activists and women’s rights protesters attended the event in Clovis when at least one fight erupted while the teen athletes were competing. Unsurprisingly, the leftist was the aggressor. Fox News confirmed via the Clovis Police Department that the person arrested during the incident was an LGBTQ activist. The individual is accused of shattering a car window with a flag pole....

Facing higher healthcare costs, Gov. Gavin Newsom is proposing adding an “asset test” for applicants for Medi-Cal and In-Home Supportive Services. The test would mean Californians would not be eligible if their assets total more than $2,000.Millions of Californians who rely on Medi-Cal and In-Home Supportive Services could lose eligibility under a proposal requiring recipients to prove their assets total less than $2,000.Gov. Gavin Newsom’s recent revised budget proposal highlighted a stark $37.6 billion increase in funding costs associated with Medi-Cal between the 2024 and 2025 fiscal year, compared to $17.1 billion in the 2014 through 2015 fiscal year.The dollar...
