Podcaster Tim Pool took full advantage of his New Media seat in the White House Briefing Room to humiliate the corporate media to their faces … and it was glorious… “Many of the news organizations represented in this room have marched in lock step on false narratives, such as the ‘very fine people’ hoax, the Covington smear,” Pool said, prefacing his first official question to Awesome White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. “And now, the ‘Maryland man’ hoax, where an MS-13 gang member, adjudicated by two different judges, I believe, is simply being referred to as a ‘Maryland man’ over...

A tense exchange unfolded on CNN on Wednesday as Secretary of Veterans Affairs Doug Collins challenged host Kaitlan Collins on the network’s recent settlement of a $5 million defamation case involving a Navy veteran. The unexpected shift occurred after repeated questioning regarding leaked national security discussions within the Trump administration, leading the secretary to turn the tables on the interviewer. Initially, Kaitlan Collins pressed Secretary Collins for his perspective on the recent controversy surrounding leaked group chat messages discussing sensitive war plans. The secretary repeatedly deflected, emphasizing his commitment solely to veterans’ welfare.

Former FBI assistant director Frank Figliuzzi said on Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Deadline” that those who voted for President Donald Trump should question whether they are American anymore. Figliuzzi said, “This Reince Priebus clip that you played, Nothing to see here, don’t worry, remain calm, he occasionally likes to take a grenade out and throw it on the floor to see what happens. I’ll tell you what happens when you play with a live grenade and toss it on the floor eventually it explodes. The only question for us is whether it’s going to explode back on Trump or explode...

The title says it all. Hope to find a free hosting site for photos that can then be posted to FR. Thanks!

First lady Jill Biden praised her husband’s performance during the debate despite nearly every political commentator saying that he not only did poorly but that he should be replaced. “Joe, you did such a great job. You answered every question. You knew all the facts,” Jill Biden said to her husband as the crowd cheered. “And what did Trump do?” she asked the crowd, all of whom responded with “Lied!” "Joe, you did such a great job answering every question. You knew all the facts." Jill Biden may be the worst human ever…. pic.twitter.com/wKy2Wud1FM — Graham Allen (@GrahamAllen_1) June 28,...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of “CNN NewsNight,” Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) stated that she has “always questioned” whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “was capable of peace,” and that there needs to be an investigation beyond the one Israel is doing on the strike that killed World Central Kitchen workers in order for Israel to get more weapons. Pelosi said, “Netanyahu has to come around. He has not been a peace-oriented person. I’ve always questioned that for decades now as to whether he could — was capable of peace, wanted to do peace, or was afraid of peace. And I feel...

Former ESPN anchor Sage Steele revealed that her interview with President Joe Biden shortly after he took office in March 2021 was “scripted” by executives at the Disney-owned network. Steele — who was “sidelined” by ESPN later that year after she criticized the company’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate and made controversial comments about former President Barack Obama — told Fox News that she was beholden to a “structured” interview. “It was very much ‘This is what you will ask. This is how you will say it. No follow-ups, no follow-ups. Next,'” Steele told Fox, adding that each question was “gone over...

WASHINGTON — President Biden dismissed a reporter’s question Tuesday about whether his three-day fundraising trip to California is cover for lining up Golden State Gov. Gavin Newsom to replace him atop the Democratic ticket in November. “You’re going to California. Is this about coming up with a Plan B for 2024 — does Gavin need to stand by?” the journalist asked Biden on the White House lawn as he departed. The 81-year-old president jokingly replied: “Are you ready?” and added, “Well I’m looking for— I’m looking at you. We’re looking at you.” Newsom, 56, has been accused of running a...

Just a Question Considering the varied opinions on Critical Race Theory, systemic racism, and the Constitution’s role in slavery begs an answer to my question.

Vice President Kamala Harris appeared stunned by a question from CBS host Margaret Brennan, who wondered if she was taking the possibility of another Donald Trump presidency "seriously enough." Harris looked taken aback, pausing before responding, "I don’t understand the question." "You were dismissive of some of the Republican criticism of you and the president. When you look at current polling, the frontrunner for the Republican nomination is the former president, the 45th president," Brennan added on "Face The Nation." Harris insisted that President Biden and her would win re-election, adding that there is "too much at stake." "The American...

WASHINGTON — President Biden insisted Wednesday that he “never talked business with anybody” after his son Hunter’s former business partner Devon Archer told Congress last week that he was on speakerphone during roughly 20 business meetings and even met his son’s foreign patrons at in-person events. “There’s this testimony now where one of your son’s former business associates is claiming that you were on speakerphone a lot with them, talking business,” Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy told Biden after a wind-power event in New Mexico.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday had to clarify that President Biden would serve out a full second term if he’s reelected after she initially suggested he had not yet decided whether he would do so. Jean-Pierre held a press briefing hours after Biden officially launched his reelection campaign. The press secretary, who routinely declines to weigh in on questions related to campaigning because of the Hatch Act, largely did not engage with any inquiries about the president’s 2024 bid or his decision to announce it Tuesday.

It is one of the most replayed moments in the history of presidential debates. Standing on a stage in Kansas City in October 1984, President Ronald Reagan was asked the question that was on most everyone's mind. He was the oldest president ever, and had been described as being "very tired" after an earlier debate. Did he have any questions in his mind about his ability to function if deprived of sleep during a national security crisis? Reagan, 73 at the time, said, "Not at all." And, after scowling for a moment, he submitted to a flicker of a smile...

Twenty-one year incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) said Alaskan voters should not question the FBI’s decision to raid former President Trump’s private residence at Mar-a-Lago. Speaking on the With All Due Respect podcast with Andrew Halcro, Murkowski said, “We are branding our law enforcement to the point where — are we trusting our law enforcement?” she rhetorically asked about the FBI’s raid. “Are we trusting those who are there to protect our citizenry?" Murkowski failed to acknowledge a former president has never been raided by his political opponent in American history. Instead, she blamed many Republicans for condemning the FBI’s...

WASHINGTON, D.C. — White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was thrown for a loop Wednesday when a journalist from NBC asked her an actual question. Jean-Pierre, who had a binder full of notes about various subjects, became flustered when she had to consult it. To her horror, the binder, which she'd considered as nothing more than a prop for several months, did not contain any answers. "I'm sorry, what did you say?" asked Jean-Pierre. "That sounded like a question." The NBC news reporter graciously repeated herself. "Is President Biden planning to address the apparent dichotomy between his constant celebrations for...

Vice President Kamala Harris sidestepped a question about who will be paying for the government's massive student loan handout program, and instead she opted to criticize the critics. Confronted by a Fox News producer with the fact that the government has yet to provide concrete information regarding where the money will come from, Harris did not even attempt to provide an answer to the question. "Well, let's start with this. First of all, a lot of the same people who are criticizing what we rightly did in following through on a commitment that we made to forgive student loan debt...

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) said Thursday she is “ashamed” that Republicans are questioning the FBI’s credibility after it raided former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago. “I have been ashamed to hear members of my party attacking the integrity of the FBI agents involved with the recent Mar-a-Lago search,” she claimed. “These are sickening comments that put the lives of patriotic public servants at risk.”

Hi All, One of the latest talking points of the mainstream media and its band of pavlok-dog economists is that credit scores for all individuals, particularly homebuyers, are much higher than those pre-GFC (Great Financial Crisis). However, we all know that the Swamp, particularly the likes of Fauxcahauntas, has ruthlessly inserted itself into consumer financial affairs for the last 100+ years. So I have to ask, have their been efforts made and/or regulations enforced that essentially water down credit scores for consumers? In other words, would many (maybe not all) individuals with an 800 credit score today have the equivalent...

Friday on CBS’s “Mornings,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) weighed in on the leaked Supreme Court’s draft opinion overturning the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling and ripple effects should that be the case. “This is a kind of invasion that if the Supreme Court has its way here, and we don’t fight back at the federal level, could touch the lives of every one of us,” Warren warned of overturning the ruling

President Joe Biden appeared clueless when asked about extending the Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) Title 42 measure on Thursday at the White House. Iinstead of talking about Title 42, the president began talking about the ongoing legal appeal from the Justice Department challenging a judicial order overruling the CDC’s mask mandate on airplanes.
