Who is going to trust the Department of Justice now? In the wake of Special Counsel John Durham’s long-awaited report, Americans now know there was widespread political collusion and deliberate deception from the very top of the Obama administration, the Clinton campaign, the corporate media and the Department of Justice (DOJ), all in favor of the Democrats. Not only did they abuse their power and lie to the public, they seem to be proud of it.
With these facts now added to the long list of formerly crazy conspiracy theories come true, former president Donald Trump is essentially inoculated from any future prosecution by virtue of the public mistrust

There are powerful parallels in the 1961 movie "The Hustler," the 1913 U.S. Open, and the current debt ceiling negotiation. Let me explain.
In each case, there is a real question of which competitor is going to succumb to the pressure and break. In "The Hustler," Paul Newman plays Eddie Felton, a young pool shark who takes on the greatest pool player of his time, Minnesota Fats (played brilliantly by Jackie Gleason). A great deal of money is involved, with the champion being backed by several big money guys. They are equally good pool players, but Gleason’s character is confident, and Newman’s character is insecure.

The most recent liberal ABC News/Washington Post poll showed President Joe Biden's approval rating at 36 percent - the lowest in history for a president at this point in his first term.
Biden's low popularity is no mystery.
He inherited energy independence, affordable gas prices, historically low interest rates, low inflation, calm overseas, a low crime rate, and a largely closed border with legal-only immigration.
And then Biden destroyed that inheritance.
He has begged illiberal foreign governments to pump oil he refuses to drill domestically for.
He spiked inflation at the highest rate in over 40 years. Home interest rates have skyrocketed from less than 3% to 7%.
He nearly doubled the price of gasoline.

Despite being described as "catastrophic," Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's alleged car chase in New York City is not sounding the alarm at Buckingham Palace. Although he offered thoughts and prayers this morning, King Charles' was not referring to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
"My wife and I are most profoundly shocked and saddened to see the scale of suffering and devastation caused by Cyclone Mocha in Myanmar and Bangladesh," the newly crowned King wrote to his Instagram.

Nearly every House Democrat has endorsed an effort to make an end run around House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and bring a clean debt ceiling increase forward for a vote that doesn't include spending cuts for the federal government.
At the direction of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., Democrats began collecting signatures for a discharge petition on Wednesday morning. Discharge petitions can force a vote on legislation even if the majority party objects, but a majority of House lawmakers needs to sign it.
As of Thursday afternoon, 210 House Democrats had signed the discharge petition in the hopes of forcing a vote on a debt ceiling increase.

POTENTIAL TROUBLE AHEAD FOR JOE BIDEN
1. On the fiscal talks, he needs a little more market scare (as a forcing mechanism) and a little less 14th Amendment and discharge petition talk (which are the opposite of forcing mechanisms…), or he might indeed preside over a stumble into a default.
2. If the rate at which he has begun to look older in recent months continues, the optics of his reelection are going to be tougher.
3. A New Hampshire primary problem with no obvious solution.
4. China, China, China.
5. Any of five threads which might be pulled by the prosecutors or the press on the Hunter sweater. 6. The possible inability

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., is introducing articles of impeachment against President Biden. "It is with the highest amount of solemnity that I announce my intention to introduce articles of impeachment today on the head of this America-at-last Executive Branch that has been working since January 20th, 2021, to systematically destroy this country: the President of the United States, Joseph Robinette Biden," Greene said at a press conference Thursday.
The firebrand congresswoman said Biden should be removed from office because he has failed to secure the border and has "deliberately compromised our national security by refusing to enforce immigration laws and secure our border."

FBI employees who spoke out against the "politicized rot" within the bureau were suspended or had their security clearances revoked, the House Judiciary Committee and Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government said. The committees released an interim staff report Thursday morning revealing new whistleblower testimony from several current and former FBI employees that exposes "abuses and misconduct in the FBI." "The disclosures from these FBI employees highlight egregious abuse, misallocation of law enforcement resources and misconduct with the leadership ranks of the FBI," the report obtained by Fox News states CORRECTION*

Monday's release of the long-awaited Durham Report confirmed widespread belief among conservatives that the Russia investigation that plagued much of the Trump presidency stemmed from unsubstantiated and politicized origins. The report, which came following a four-year investigation led by Special Counsel John Durham, was a major rebuke of the FBI and DOJ, so much so that even CNN anchor Jake Tapper was stunned.

The report of special counsel John Durham is, or ought to be, devastating for anyone who has put any credence in what has now been definitively revealed to be the Russia collusion hoax.
With a painstaking examination of the evidence (1,753 footnotes!), Durham establishes conclusively that there was no basis for the FBI to have begun its Crossfire Hurricane investigation of ties between the Trump campaign and Russia in July 2016. The Bureau acted on “raw, unanalyzed and uncorroborated intelligence” and without checking with intelligence entities. In contrast, it brushed aside evidence unfavorable to Hillary Clinton, including “highly significant intelligence it received from a trusted foreign source pointing to a Clinton

Constitutional lawyer Jonathan Turley called out the media on Wednesday for its part in promoting the Russiagate theory following the release of the Durham report, which determined that the Trump-Russia probe was illegitimately launched.In an unforgiving op-ed published Wednesday by the New York Post, Turley said the report implicated the Clinton campaign, the FBI and the media as key participants who propagated the Russia collusion narrative by amplifying "a plot to create a false claim of collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government."
After breaking down the collective effort on behalf of the Clinton campaign and the Justice Department in the collusion conspiracy, Turley turned his attention

Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., left a Biden judicial nominee speechless during her confirmation hearing Wednesday after he quizzed her on basic constitutional law theory. Judge Ana de Alba, who currently serves on a California federal district court and is nominated to serve on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, struggled to define the Dormant Clause and Commerce Clause under Article 1 of the Constitution.
"This has been in the news a lot lately, and you'll probably see it if you're confirmed to the Court of Appeal. Tell me about the Dormant Commerce Clause," Kennedy said.
"I’m somewhat familiar with the Commerce Clause, which is found in Article 1 of the Constitution
