President Biden took an oath of office in which he swore his highest duty was to his country, but it’s clear he has only one loyalty: his crooked, access-selling family.
It’s positively Mafiaesque. The latest development: House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) is demanding unredacted access from the National Archives to emails Biden sent as veep using any of his three known pseudonyms: Robert L. Peters, Robin Ware and JRB Ware. (The prez got a little lazy on #3, it seems.)
Comer outlines the clear possibility that these aliases were an attempt by the then-vice president to deflect scrutiny from his dealings with son Hunter

During a recent session with reporters, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was asked about the type of activities the team does to bond when they are away from the football field. The 25-year-old signal caller then shared details about the team's recent off day, which included going to dinner and watching movies. "It was like a movie fest yesterday. Just movie hopping," Tagovailoa said.
He mentioned that they watched "Oppenheimer," but he seemed to particularly enjoy the independent film "Sound of Freedom." "'Sound of Freedom' is good. Yeah, 'Sound of Freedom' is definitely really good," he saId

The advent of a new presidential campaign season brings with it the usual political- and media-class sentiment: no one wants to go back (to whatever one thinks there is to go back to), everyone wants to move forward. The conceit of progress that has gripped the American psyche for well over a century always demands the next click in the ratchet. It is the sort of perennial existential discontent, questing for the next thing, that is superb for, say, settling a frontier. It is much less salutary when the "next thing" is a new frontier in state power or societal overthrow.

President Biden has taken fire this week for reportedly using aliases and "secret" email addresses as vice president in messages to his son Hunter Biden, who had business in Ukraine at the time. Under former President Barack Obama's administration, White House officials defended the use of alternate email addresses. During a 2013 press briefing, the Obama-Biden White House, amid accusations that individuals within the administration had been using "secret" email addresses for correspondence, highlighted its belief that using "alternate email addresses" for high-ranking officials made "eminent sense."

A new Fox News poll shows President Biden is struggling to maintain support among Hispanic voters, as a panel of voters told "Fox & Friends" on Friday that inflation is driving them away from the party. According to the poll, only 46% of Hispanic voters currently choose Biden for president in 2024 compared to 63% of the same group in 2020. In comparison, 37% of Hispanic voters support Donald Trump for 2024 compared to 35% in 2020.
Americans for Prosperity Texas' Tina Aviles, American University graduate J.P. Villasmil, and Christian author Lydia Dominguez explained why Biden is struggling with voters in the Latino community.

In the United States of America, there are roughly 3,150 counties. Most of them have prosecutors or district attorneys. Each one of these can usually empanel a grand jury. These grand juries can, with rare exceptions, meet in secret to consider indicting anyone at all. There need be no publicity at all, but there usually is. These grand juries can call witnesses and even require Americans to testify for days or even weeks on end on matters that took place years before. The “defendants” in these matters are not allowed to have lawyers, although sometimes they do. They are sometimes kept from their families and colleagues for long periods.

Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy shared a list of what he called 10 truths to social media Thursday, with references to faith, gender, and capitalism. Ramaswamy, a biotech entrepreneur who is seeking the Republican nomination, shared the ideals on X, starting with, "God is real" and "There are only two genders" — the latter being a contentious claim by those on the Left.
The list also promotes the importance of fossil fuels, condemns "reverse racism," defends the role of parents in choosing their own children's education, and boasts the U.S. Constitution as the "strongest guarantor of freedoms in history."

A brother and sister who previously served as aides to then-Vice President Biden and have longstanding ties to Hunter Biden could be key witnesses if they were called to testify in the ongoing congressional investigations into the first family's finances due to their intimate knowledge of the inner workings of Hunter's firm and the VP's office. Anne Marie (Person) Muldoon and Francis "Fran" Person, who worked for Joe Biden for nearly a decade dating back to 2006, kept in frequent contact with Hunter Biden and Eric Schwerin, the then-president of Hunter’s now-dissolved investment firm Rosemont Seneca Partners, during their Obama-Biden administration roles using their government emails

Republicans are seeking records revealing Joe Biden's use of pseudonyms to discuss his activities related to Ukraine with his son Hunter during his time as vice president.
They specifically want an un-redacted document that indicates that then-Vice President Biden took a call with the president of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, on May 27, 2016. Republicans say the document was emailed to 'Robert L. Peters' which is 'a pseudonym' the House Oversight Committee has 'identified as then Vice-President Biden,' a letter obtained by DailyMail.com states. 'Additionally, the Committee questions why the then-Vice President's son, Hunter Biden—and only Hunter Biden—was copied on this email to then-Vice President Biden.'

The period of 15 months between now and the next presidential election is a vast chasm of what is now commonly called denial. For eight years, since the Trump phenomenon became a political force, a sequence of options has been implemented for removing it. It was initially a subject of hilarity and challenges from late-night television wits to see who could be more acidulous in dismissing the absurdity of a Trump presidential candidacy. (Most of those so-called wits have now been sacked by their networks or reduced by the labor problems in Hollywood to reruns of what was stale programming when first aired;

Whether former President Donald Trump has bitten off more than he can chew legally remains to be seen, but there is one way the growing number of indictments plays to his advantage.
In the Republican primary, at least, "us" would be those who have doubts about the 2020 election, see the justice system as having been “weaponized” against conservatives in a way it would never be against President Joe Biden or his family, and therefore think the indictments are bogus. The people on the other side of those issues are “them.”
Presidential politics in the 21st century is a Hatfields vs. McCoys feud. Few understand this better than Trump.

"The Blind Side" author Michael Lewis, whose book based on the life of former NFL player Michael Oher was adapted for the film and was nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, broke his silence on the drama between the subject and the Tuohy family. Lewis told The Washington Post on Wednesday that no one who was involved in the book saw millions of dollars from the movie. The movie earned nearly $310 million from the box office. In the book, Lewis followed Oher from his upbringing in a poor community, his years at a private school in Tennessee to his alleged adoption by Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy.
