President Biden is currently reviewing whether or not to revoke former President Donald Trump’s access to classified briefings. Modern-day presidents in the United States typically continue to receive classified intelligence briefings even after they leave the White House. Biden press secretary Jen Psaki on Monday indicated the matter was currently being looked into. “This is a good question,” Psaki told reporters. “It’s something that’s obviously under review.” Critics of the former president have indicated Trump can not be trusted with some of the perks that are often granted to those who once served the American people.

Dr. Bandy X. Lee, a psychology professor who met with over a dozen Democrat lawmakers in 2018 to discuss the mental health of the President, claims Hitler was actually a better person. Lee took to social media to make the case that Hitler had several qualities making him more endearing than President Trump, including the assertion that he “improved the daily life of his followers.” “Donald Trump is not an Adolf Hitler,” she tweeted. “At least Hitler improved the daily life of his followers, had discipline, and required more of himself to gain the respect of his followers.” “Even with...

Chief Justice John Roberts sided with liberals on the Supreme Court, creating a deadlock and denying a request by the Pennsylvania GOP to count ballots only if they’ve been received by Election Day. The 4-4 tie means the decision from the lower court remains in place. Last month, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that mail-in ballots can be counted up to three days after the election, even if they lack a legible postmark. The court stated that ballots counted during the extension period must be postmarked by the close of polls on Election Day. The AP, however, noted that “ballots...

While the media has made much about the so-called “Bridge-gate” in New Jersey, it would appear that the Department of Homeland Security has held up a desperately-needed salt shipment as punishment to embattled governor Chris Christie. Christie issued an executive order to alleviate the salt crisis on February 12, 2014. State officials requested a waiver to the Jones Act to allow a freighter with 40,000 tons of salt to disembark in New Jersey. By February 12th and 13th, they were denied. According to the Governor’s order: I authorize and empower the Commissioner of the Department of Transportation to take all...
