DOJ’s Dirty Deeds

Out Of DOJ Meetings Touted By Hunter Biden’s Attorneys 1 reply
IRS whistleblowers say they were kept out of meetings between Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecutors and Hunter Biden’s attorneys.
Whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler each testified to the House Ways and Means Committee about how they were kept out of meetings that Biden’s defense counsel Chris Clark touted at Biden’s July 26 court appearance, where his guilty plea agreement fell apart. (snip) "And I would say that I think it’s not typical for the investigative team and the agents to never be in on proffers or reverse proffers with defense counsel. We never once were allowed to do so."

A new reactor at a nuclear power plant in Georgia has entered commercial operation, becoming the first new American reactor built from scratch in decades.
Georgia Power Co. announced Monday that Unit 3 at Plant Vogtle, southeast of Augusta, has completed testing and is now sending power to the grid reliably.
At its full output of 1,100 megawatts of electricity, Unit 3 can power 500,000 homes and businesses. Utilities in Georgia, Florida and Alabama are receiving the electricity.
Nuclear power now makes up about 25% of the generation of Georgia Power, the largest unit of Atlanta-based Southern Co.
A math education professor at the University of Illinois argued in a newly published book that algebraic and geometry skills perpetuate “unearned privilege” among whites. (snip) “On many levels, mathematics itself operates as Whiteness. Who gets credit for doing and developing mathematics, who is capable in mathematics, and who is seen as part of the mathematical community is generally viewed as White,” Gutierrez argued.
Gutierrez also worries that algebra and geometry perpetuate privilege, fretting that “curricula emphasizing terms like Pythagorean theorem and pi perpetuate a perception that mathematics was largely developed by Greeks and other Europeans."
A taxpayer-funded fair housing nonprofit in Illinois, with the help of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), is demanding a federal crackdown on landlords who don't rent to tenants with eviction records.
In a complaint filed with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) last week, the group HOPE Fair Housing Center argues that such policies amount to illegal discrimination based on race and sex, given the higher likelihood that black people, and particularly black women, will have an eviction record.

An African American Studies course defended by Democrats teaches the same historical item Vice President Kamala Harris and others excoriated Florida governor Ron DeSantis (R.) for allowing in his state’s curriculum. (snip)
the AP African American Studies course framework designed by the College Board, which many Democrats including Harris defended in the face of scrutiny from DeSantis, includes a similar line.
"In addition to agricultural work, enslaved people learned specialized trades and worked as painters, carpenters, tailors, musicians, and healers in the North and South," the AP course framework reads. "Once free, African Americans used these skills to provide for themselves and others."

The head of South Carolina's Department of Education is on the receiving-end of criticism after local media highlighted concerns about potential First Amendment violations over an email to employees. (snip) The email was delivered to SCDE employees earlier this month, and instructed recipients to state their name, role, and fill-in the blank for the following prompt: "I believe it is essential for SCDE to provide ______ for every child to reach their full, God-Given potential."

A Constitutional lawyer, cited in the news outlet's report, slammed the correspondence as an example of, "the state imposing a religious test on employees, that's unconstitutional.
Ford Motor Company announced it is projected to lose a whopping $4.5 billion from electric vehicles (EVs) this year, up from the previous projected loss of $3 billion.
The company released its second-quarter financial results on Thursday. The U.S.-based automaker's EV division, called "Ford Model e," has lost $1.8 billion so far this year, according to Fortune.
The projected $4.5 billion loss is over twice as much as Model e's $2.1 billion loss in 2022. The company recently announced that the price of its electric F-150 Lightning pickup trucks will be reduced due to cheaper raw battery materials.
On Friday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “The Record,” Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz stated that the proposed Hunter Biden plea deal was “the opposite” of how plea deals usually work because it actually sent a message that “we don’t want to hear from you. We don’t want you to testify. We don’t want you to get other people in trouble.” And was done on “open and shut” charges.
Host Greta Van Susteren said, “When you give immunity to someone as a federal prosecutor, you get something. And they got nothing.

Democratic Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has broken with his party when it comes to just how far he's willing to support medical treatments for children identifying as transgender. (snip) In response to Beshear's stated opposition to child sex change surgeries, Cameron's campaign called foul.
"Andy Beshear supports sex-change surgeries for kids because he vetoed the bill banning them in March," campaign surrogate and Republican Party of Kentucky spokesman Sean Southard said in a statement. "Now, in the heat of a campaign, Andy Beshear is misleading voters about his true beliefs. It’s a shame, and Kentuckians are smart enough to see through Andy Beshear’s lies."

for copying California censorship law
SCOTUS rejected 5 replies
This spring Vermont joined California and Connecticut in regulating the speech of pro-life pregnancy centers, claiming they routinely dupe abortion-seeking women about the services they provide and share misinformation.
This week the Green Mountain State joined them in getting sued for alleged First and Fourteenth Amendment infringements.
The National Institute of Family and Life Advocates, a pregnancy center network, and two of its seven Vermont members are seeking an injunction against several officials, including state Attorney General Charity Clark, with authority to enforce various provisions of SB 37 – being characterized in such legal language as "vague and viewpoint-discriminatory" speech code "not narrowly tailored to any asserted state interest."

Only four of the once-Cabinet members for former President Donald Trump publicly said they would support his reelection in 2024, according to a new report.
Several strongly oppose his campaign, some are even working against his bid to become the GOP nominee and many didn't respond to requests to comment on his efforts.
Former Attorney General Bill Barr has some of those most harsh words for his ex-boss, telling NBC News: 'I have made clear that I strongly oppose Trump for the nomination and will not endorse Trump.'

The multilateral trade agreement known as the Transpacific Partnership (TPP), is a massive pacific rim trade agreement favored by Wall Street, the US Chamber of Commerce, Club for Growth, Ron DeSantis (voted to approve) and now candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.President Trump famously took the U.S. out of the TPP agreement around the same time he took us out of the Paris Climate Agreement. As noted by President Trump and his economic team at the time, Free Trade Agreements (FTA’s) are beneficial to the USA when they are bilateral between the U.S. and another singular nation. Multinational trade agreements end up serving the interests of the least common denominator nation
Just a week following the unexpected and rather tragic death of their personal chef and friend, Tafari Campbell, the Obamas were spotted out and about, seemingly unscathed and unaffected.
Barack and Michelle Obama were spotted at the Vineyard Golf Club and Farm Neck Country Club, respectively, according to exclusive photos obtained by Daily Mail. The pictures are the first public glimpse of the Obamas since the loss of their dear friend and personal chef.
Dressed in a green polo shirt and white shorts, Barack Obama was seen engaged in a round of golf at the exclusive Vineyard Golf Club. The former president, noticeably bearing bandaged fingers, which causes speculations online.
Last week, Barack Obama’s private chef, Tafari Campbell, fell off his paddle board and sank below the surface of Edgartown Great Pond. His drowned body was recovered on Monday morning in the water off the former president’s Martha’s Vineyard estate. Currently, there’s no foul play suspected, and it’s worth noting that Campbell was not wearing a lifejacket. However, certain peculiarities have presented themselves, causing some people to raise questions. For example, the reason for the 911 call that prompted the search was left blank in official logs. The person Campbell was with at the time of the accident remains unidentified, and the police have refused to disclose the person’s name.
When you constantly have to rename and rebrand whatever scam you’re pushing this week, it’s a scam.
Corporations constantly rename certain products to upsell them or make them sound new and exciting. It’s not junk anymore, it’s e-junk or smart junk, and it’s not global warming anymore, it’s climate change. No wait, that sounds boring.

Former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ), a candidate for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that former President Donald Trump would be “out on bail” during the presidential campaign.
Therefore, according to Christie, Trump can’t beat President Joe Biden.
Christie said, “You can’t say there was no underlying potential crime here. This was the withholding on classified confidential information from the government, after 18 months of asking Donald Trump to return it voluntarily. Not only did he not return it, he lied about having it. This is not the kind of thing we can’t do. I want you to think about the potential effect
Former President Donald Trump’s legal woes are affecting his campaign in more ways than one. On the one hand, they have boosted his popularity among members of the conservative base, who see the wave of politically motivated indictments as a brazen attempt to use the legal system to influence the outcome of the upcoming presidential election. However, new reports show that these issues are making a significant dent in his campaign’s war chest.
So far, the political action committee supporting Trump’s bid for the White House has spent a considerable sum of money on legal fees:
NBC host Chuck Todd said Sunday on “Today” that when the Republican base realized former President Donald Trump’s legal cases make him unelectable “it may be too late” because he might “already have the nomination.”
Todd said, “You know, one of the things we’re trying to focus people’s attention to is what this calendar is starting to look like in the first six months of 2024. We are literally going to be going back and forth. In fact, the day of the Iowa caucuses, a civil trial involving Donald Trump begins.”
In an unprecedented move, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has issued a letter to a federal judge in the Southern District of New York, suggesting that Devon Archer, a business associate of Hunter Biden, be ordered to surrender and begin his term of imprisonment.
This development comes amidst Archer’s ongoing appeal and just before his scheduled testimony about the criminal activities involving the Biden crime family.
The letter requests that the court set a date and time for Archer to report to a facility chosen by the Bureau of Prisons.

MSNBC Host Jonathan Capehart was fact-checked on air after claiming failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton didn’t have classified documents on her server. During an interview on PBS NewsHour, Capehart was corrected after making an outlandish claim in which he tried to defend Clinton’s private server scandal.
He said former President Trump’s situation is far worse because he kept classified documents while Clinton “did not.” The Left-wing host claimed the emails on Clinton’s server mainly included cooking recipes and appointment reminders.
Trucking giant Yellow collapsed on Sunday, ceasing operations immediately and leaving some 30,000 workers without jobs.
The closure is the biggest in terms of jobs and revenue in the U.S. trucking industry, according to The Wall Street Journal - which first reported its shutdown. The company, which received $700 million in federal COVID relief funds in 2020, is preparing to file for bankruptcy and is in talks to sell off all or parts of the business. The nearly 100-year-old firm is known for its competitive pricing and has more than 12,000 trucks shipping freight across the US for brands including Walmart and Home Depot.
