Life comes at you fast, they say. Hunter and Joe Biden are finding that out. Former Assistant US Attorney Lesley Wolf has some explaining to do after being accused of interfering with a federal investigation of Hunter Biden. Wolf was the target of several accusations made by an IRS whistleblower, Gary Shapley. The Justice Department (DOJ) ex-official was subpoenaed in November by the House Judiciary Committee to address Shapley’s allegations that she “limited” investigators’ questioning of witnesses, blocked a search warrant for Hunter Biden’s place of residence in 2020, and tipped off Joe Biden’s son’s legal team that a search...

Have you ever thought about using an extra thumb? Perhaps you could play the guitar faster, or hold an extra tool as you continue to work? Well think no more, as Dani Clode has invented just that. We took a trip down to the University of Cambridge, where she collaborates with neuroscientist Tamr Makin to unravel the mysteries of how this extra thumb influences the brain. Dani envisions a future where augmentation becomes a reality and the third thumb serves as a tool to enhance the capabilities of regular individuals. She also explores the impact this additional thumb can have...

On Friday, attorneys for Harrison Floyd as well as counsel for the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office and Fulton County convened for a hearing over a Motion to Quash subpoenas submitted by the defense. It was also, coincidentally, the three-year anniversary of “the most secure” election “in American History”, according to then-CISA Director Christopher Krebs and harped by mainstream Mockingbird outlets. Floyd was one of the individuals indicted by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis back in August and, notably, the only individual who was initially denied bond and kept at the Fulton County Prison, where 15 people died in...

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, America First Legal (AFL) secured a key victory in its case filed on behalf of Stuart and Robbi Force, Sarri Singer, and Rep. Ronny Jackson against President Biden and Secretary of State Blinken for violating the Taylor Force Act and illegally subsidizing terrorism. Rejecting the fundamental premise of U.S. anti-terrorism laws – that money is fungible – the defendants claimed that there is absolutely no evidence U.S. funding for the Palestinians in Gaza and the “West Bank” (more accurately Judea and Samaria) facilitates or subsidizes terrorism against Americans and Israelis. However, internal State Department documents demonstrate...

Elon Musk made a bold donation offer to Wikipedia, on one condition. The Tesla CEO and owner of X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, took to his social media account to offer the online encylcopedia a generous donation if they're willing to rename their site. "I will give them a billion dollars if they change their name to Dickipedia," wrote Musk. "Please add that to the [cow and poop emojis] on my wiki page," he continued. "In the interests of accuracy." (Tweets at Link) Journalist Ed Krassenstein later chimed in to encourage the organization to make the...

The United States moved toward giving Iran access to at least $16 billion in the last few weeks, including $6 billion held in South Korea as part of a prisoner exchange deal and $10 billion held in Iraq to pay off Baghdad’s debts for its purchases of Iranian natural gas. Moreover, the Biden administration has remained silent regarding reports that the administration’s understanding with Iran would include up to an additional $7 billion in special drawing rights (SDR) from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and potentially other cash as well. Washington has also failed to comment on Iranian Foreign Minister...

African migrants are reportedly flying to South America so they may enter the United States through its porous southern border, according to a Daily Mail investigation. For proof of this phenomenon, the Daily Mail’s reporters traveled to the Istanbul Airport to catch one of the migrants’ flights to Bogota, Colombia. “Istanbul-Bogota is the hottest plane ticket in town right now for many young Africans seeking to earn more money or flee alleged persecution at home,” the outlet exclusively reported on Friday. The outlet has gone and even given the flight a name: the Biden Express. Why the Biden Express? Because...

MOSCOW, Sept 26 (Reuters) - Viktor Sokolov, the commander of Russia's Black Sea Fleet and one of Russia's most senior navy officers, was shown on Tuesday attending a video conference, a day after Ukrainian special forces said they had killed him. In video and photographs released by the Russian defence ministry, Sokolov was shown apparently taking part in a video conference with Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu and other top admirals and army chiefs. Ukraine's special forces said on Monday they had killed Sokolov, Moscow's top admiral in Crimea, along with 33 other officers in a missile attack last week on...

Conservative efforts to downplay the events of Jan. 6, 2021, and allege the political “weaponization” of the government seem to ratchet up with each passing week. But rarely have they reached such a fever pitch, at least at the official level, as they did Wednesday with Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-Ind.).

I have to say that it’s been a long time since I enjoyed watching democrat politicians this much. New York democrats held a townhall meeting in the New York city today and New Yorkers got a hard lesson in reality- their representatives don’t give a flying f*** about them. They set upon the airhead AOC and that lying sack of crap Jerry Nadler to voice their anger about the illegal alien invasion of their city. Illegals are arriving daily and New Yorkers have discovered that there is a large bill to pay for the big mouth of their mayor Eric...

The Russia/China alliance was somehow not anticipated by all our three letter intelligentsia. As such every major agency is obsessed with how to break up this strategic alliance so as to weaken the ‘enemy’. When obliterating western economies, this alternate alliance has the power to supersede the efforts and gain a resilient traction. The players are deeply concerned this alliance will upend the western colonization of Africa. Billions of dollars have been invested into Africa’s infrastructure to support the land grab farms. The money comes from the Green Fund that does nothing green. Unfortunately our western three letters don’t have...

In a shocking revelation, Todd Bensman, the Center’s Texas-based Senior National Security Fellow, has reported that the Biden regime is allocating a staggering $2,200 per month to illegal immigrant families (1 parent & 1 child) for the cost of living expenses. This comes at a time when the average American on Social Security receives just $1,400 per month and Maui survivors with only $700. According to a video interview with an anonymous Border Patrol Agent, illegal immigrants are “double dipping” the system. One parent and one child receive $2,200 per month, and then a separate parent and child—often from the...

So-called Nazis were on the march near Orlando, FL on Saturday when a group of costumed men going by the name of “Blood Tribe” turned out to seek attention in a demonstration that conveniently feeds into the Biden regime’s claims that “white supremacy” is the most dangerous threat to America today. Coming a week after a “racially motivated” incident at a Jacksonville-area Dollar General store that saw three black people gunned down in cold blood by a disturbed young man who left behind a racist manifesto, the gaggle of demonstrators who are dressed in remarkably similar garb to the Patriot...

The Department of Defense (DOD) announced on Thursday that it will begin training Ukrainian pilots and ground crews to fly F-16 fighter jets in Arizona. Last week, the Biden administration approved the sending of the American-made jets to Ukraine from Denmark and the Netherlands, Reuters reported, despite fears that it could trigger fury from Moscow. “We welcome Washington’s decision to pave the way for sending #F16 Fighter Jets to Ukraine,” said the Netherlands’ Minister of Foreign Affairs, Wopke Hoekstra. “Many thanks to [Secretary of State Antony Blinken] for the good and swift cooperation. Now, we will further discuss the subject...

COBB COUNTY, Ga. — The Cobb County School Board voted to terminate a teacher after she read a book about gender norms to her fifth-grade class. In a board meeting Thursday evening, the board voted 4-3 to fire Katie Rinderle. Rinderle, a longtime educator in the Cobb County School District, read a book called “My Shadow is Purple,” a book about gender norms. The termination comes a week after a tribunal proceeding was held to decide if she would keep, or lose, her job. The tribunal determined that she did violate part of Georgia’s new divisive concepts law, but they...

AT LEAST THEY'RE HONEST!!!🤣🤣🤣

A two page docket report was posted, then removed, from the Fulton County, Georgia court website today concerning the impending indictment of former President Donald Trump. The incident led to corporate media outlets and news wires originally reporting that an indictment has been handed down Monday. It had not. The briefly public docket report revealed that District Attorney Willis will be seeking a range of charges against Trump including racketeering, conspiracy, and making false statements – it is not currently known if additional charges will be included. The apparent errant posting of charges is just the latest in controversies that...

John Pelletier, the current Chief of the Maui Police Department amid the ongoing Hawaiian wildfires, acted as Incident Commander for the mysterious Las Vegas Police mass shooting – the largest in American history – in 2017.

Before that, Pelletier served 22 years in the Las Vegas Police Department, rising through the ranks to become captain of the department.
