House Republicans called top Manhattan prosecutors to testify before lawmakers following the unprecedented felony conviction of the presumptive GOP presidential nominee. On Friday, the Select Committee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government issued a demand for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and his deputy, Matthew Colangelo, to appear on Capitol Hill for a June 13 hearing.

FTA: Bragg ran for the top New York County prosecutor’s office on a platform to prosecute Trump in 2021. “Bragg often reminded voters on the campaign trail that he helped sue the Trump administration ‘more than a hundred times’ as a deputy in the New York state attorney general’s office,” Reuters reported the year Bragg was elected. Too homely to be a chipmunk, fat Alvin is going to squeal like a pig.

FTA - "House Republicans on the Judiciary Committee wrote a letter to New York Democrat Attorney General Letitia James two weeks ago demanding records related to Colangelo’s time there." House pubbies, why not just write a mean letter and send it to Braggie like you did for James? It's cheaper and takes less time out of your "busy" schedules.

Another strongly worded "demand" from the Republicans. What a total waste of time. Why didn't they send a subpoena?

Republicans politely requested they testify. Really impressive. How about issuing a subpoena to appear now? Republicans fumble around and never get anything accomplished.

Clients of New York Judge Juan Merchan’s daughter, Loren Merchan, and the progressive consulting firm she manages are raking in cash off of the conviction of former President Donald Trump in a New York City show trial her father oversaw. Loren Merchan’s firm, Authentic Campaigns, did not respond to The Federalist’s questions about the obvious conflict of interest her position poses. After a jury pulled from a pool of Biden voters found Trump guilty of 34 counts of bookkeeping fraud, Democrat California Rep. Adam Schiff, a client of Authentic Campaigns, immediately began fundraising off of the verdict.

In early May, the Georgia appeals court announced it would review a conflict of interest regarding Willis remaining on the case. The former president and several of his co-defendants have attempted to remove Willis from the case due to her previous romantic relationship with Nathan Wade, another prosecutor who had been on the case.

Federal agencies under Dr. Anthony Fauci’s leadership received hundreds of millions in pharmaceutical royalties over the coronavirus pandemic. According to an investigation by the nonprofit government watchdog Open the Books, pharmaceutical and health care companies paid more than $710 million to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), which Fauci led from 1984 to 2022, received more than $690 million, or 97 percent, of the total $710 million.

South Africa’s ruling ANC faced a search for allies to form a new government Saturday after losing its three-decade-old absolute majority in a watershed election, as some rivals questioned the results. With 99.85 percent of the votes from Wednesday’s election counted, President Cyril Ramaphosa’s African National Congress had only 40 percent, a catastrophic slump from the 57.5 it won in 2019. This marks a historic turning point for South Africa as the party has enjoyed an absolute majority since 1994, when liberation hero Nelson Mandela led the nation out of white-minority rule and into democracy. The ANC must now negotiate a coalition government or

One show trial down, three more to go. You have every reason to spend the next five months anticipating anything and everything to keep voters from installing Donald Trump back in the White House through a process formerly known in America as a “free and fair election.” Up to and including assassinating the candidate whom every indicator has winning in November. For the first time in our country’s history a former president, who is running for reelection, was just convicted of a crime in what prosecutor Alvin Bragg’s hometown newspaper admitted is a “novel and untested” application of an obscure state law.

President Joe Biden’s media allies are so desperate to stop him from hemorrhaging black voters that they have resorted to regurgitating a race hoax against former President Donald Trump that also failed in 2016 and 2018. Bill Pruitt, who was a producer for “The Apprentice,” published a piece in Slate alleging Trump used the N-word during the taping of the first season. Pruitt said he waited until now to share his claim because he was under a nondisclosure agreement that conveniently expired at the same time that Biden is flailing in the polls among black voters in particular.

Myocarditis and pericarditis only occur after vaccination and not after COVID-19 infection, according to a recent preprint led by researchers at Oxford University, which compared health outcomes among COVID-vaccinated and unvaccinated children. “Whilst rare, all myocarditis and pericarditis events during the study period occurred in vaccinated individuals,” the authors wrote. There were no deaths from myocarditis or pericarditis. The study evaluated over 1 million English children aged 5 to 11 and adolescents aged 12 to 15. Vaccinated minors were compared to an equal number of unvaccinated, and children who took one dose were also compared to those who took two doses.

If you’ve been following former President Donald Trump’s hush-money trial in New York, you might have seen the shocking news that the judge in that trial, Juan Merchan, issued bizarre and plainly unconstitutional jury instructions on Wednesday, telling jurors they need not agree on what crime Trump allegedly committed to reach a unanimous guilty verdict. (snip) the jury could come back with a guilty verdict without agreeing on whether Trump committed election fraud, tax fraud, or falsification of business records. He essentially divided the jury into three groups of four, saying that if they’re split 4-4-4 on what crime Trump committed, he’d treat that as unanimous.

Lancet‘s guidelines encourage writers to embrace gender identity instead of biological sex. “Sex and gender are often incorrectly portrayed as binary (female/male or woman/man), concordant, and static,” says the guidelines. Therefore, those submitting articles “should use the term ‘sex assigned at birth’ rather than ‘biological sex,’ ‘birth sex’ or ‘natal sex’ as it is more accurate and inclusive.” Inclusive for whom? (Rhetorical question. I know the answer.

WASHINGTON — Facing mounting political pressure over the migrant influx at the U.S. southern border, President Joe Biden on Tuesday signed an executive order that will temporarily shut down asylum requests once the average number of daily encounters tops 2,500 between official ports of entry, according to a senior administration official. The shutdown would go into effect immediately since that threshold has already been met, a senior administration official said. The border would reopen only once that number falls to 1,500. The president’s order would come under the Immigration and Nationality Act sections 212(f) and 215(a) suspending entry of noncitizens who cross the southern border into the United States unlawfully.

The "land corridors" could see US soldiers arriving at one of five ports along pre-planned routes to confront soldiers sent by Moscow, according to Nato officials. Existing plans have armed forces landing at Dutch ports before boarding trains through Germany and onwards to Poland. These news plans are still being put together and are being made behind the scenes to expand the routes to other ports.

Benjamin Netanyahu has something in common with Garth Brooks -- he has 'friends' in low places. In an interview with Time Magazine, Joe Biden addressed a number of issues, although just how much Biden addressed them may be up for some debate. Biden insists that he is one of Israel's greatest friends, and at least in the days after October 7, Biden appeared to have determination to act like a friend. These days, however, Biden's party has fractured on the war that Hamas started with those brutal massacres, rapes, and kidnappings. So Biden is tossing his "friends" under the bus today by quasi-accusing them of "war crimes," an

The sooner he makes his pick, the sooner that individual can prepare for a vice-presidential debate, which could be held as soon as July. Still, Trump has kept people guessing, as he likes to do.
