Joe Biden’s literal brother in crime, James Biden, has denied his brother had anything to do with their bilking foreign powers for millions in exchange for Joe’s “influence.” He stated his brother “never had any involvement or any direct or indirect financial interest.”
He changed his tune when the House Oversight Committee provided records that show Joe WAS involved in his business dealings with foreign powers.
James Biden opened his closed-door testimony to the House Oversight Committee this week by claiming his older brother President Joe Biden “never had any involvement or any direct or indirect financial interest” in any of his 50 years of business deals.
“In every business venture in which I have been involved, I have relied on my own talent, judgment, skill, and personal relationships — and never my status as Joe Biden’s brother. Those who have said or thought otherwise were either mistake, ill-informed, or flat-out lying,” James Biden said on Wednesday.
The younger Biden brother also denied participating in a foreign business deal with Hunter Biden and several other Biden family associates. When House investigators showed him his signature on a related business agreement, James Biden claimed ignorance.
Michigan’s State Board of Education pushed back against the anti-American party’s push to create a database of homeschool parents, warning that the process could open the door for warrantless searches of homeschool families.
The anti-American party, the DNC-CCP, is pushing forward with its plans to create the homeschool database, claiming they’re infringing on the rights of Americans to “save the children,” the usual tactic that ironically comes from the party of death that advocates murdering children up to and soon after birth.
The State Board of Education in Michigan meeting on Feb 13th, 2024 raised concerns about registration lists for homeschooled parents…
On February 13th, the Michigan State Board of Education met for their monthly meeting. Towards the end of the meeting, prior to closing, Board Member Tom McMillin of Oakland Township added his comments regarding a push to require registration requirements for homeschooling.
McMillin’s issue with creating a registration has been a contentious subject in Michigan dating back to at least 2015. However, recently the proposed “list” idea has thrust itself back into the spotlight after a case in Clinton County, where two couples are accused of adopting “nearly 30 children, some of whom the [couples] are accused of abusing.”
In response to the case, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said in an X post that “implementing monitoring mechanisms is crucial to ensure that all children, including those homeschooled, receive necessary protections.” McMillin believes that “a mere registration, a list of people…will not help prevent what AG Nessel is talking about.” He believes the list is nothing more than a pathway to monitoring and said that Nessel is “saying the quiet part out loud”:
“She basically said we want this list so we can have…warrantless home entry into this particular targeted group…but we have a legal system that says you have to have a warrant before you go in.
However, because of this one instance, some in the state want to be able to barge in and bust the door down….It’s not hyperbolic. If they knock on the door and they say “no, I don’t want you to come in”…and there’s all kinds of reasons not to have them in…there’s a book called “Three Felonies a Day”…if the government wants to get you, there going to find something. Without a warrant, they shouldn’t be coming into your house.
I just think…it’s going to go beyond registration. They’re either naive or they’re being disingenous for anybody to say ‘all we want to do is have a list.’ It’s going to go significantly further than that. They’re going to either want to know exactly what’s being taught or they’re going to want entry into the houses. And so I think that this is a real problem. I guess I just wish that the debate would be sincere.
…anyone with half a brain realizes it doesn’t stop there.”
Lawfare Assassin and DNC-CCP revolutionary activist “Judge” Arthur Engoron has denied Donald J Trump’s request for a 30-day stay on his nearly half a billion fine for committing fraud without a victim. The move was not unexpected, but it further lays bare the absolute lawlessness of the party this seditious Judge represents, the DNC-CCP, frenemy to America’s enemies.
The judge who presided over the civil fraud case against Donald Trump and his company has rejected his attorney’s request to delay enforcing the $350 million judgment against them.
“You have failed to explain, much less justify, any basis for a stay,” Judge Arthur Engoron wrote in an email Thursday to Trump attorney Clifford S. Robert shortly before he officially signed off on the judgment, which totals over $450 million with pre-judgment interest.
In an email to the judge Wednesday, Robert noted that the company has a court-appointed monitor already in place, so “there is no prejudice to the (state) Attorney General in briefly staying enforcement to allow for an orderly post-Judgement process, particularly given the magnitude of Judgement.”
A special counsel in the New York attorney general’s office, Andrew Amer, said in a letter to Engoron Thursday that he shouldn’t grant Robert’s request because the defendants didn’t “provide any basis for staying enforcement of the judgement.” He also noted that the defendants “requested such relief in their post-trial brief, which the Court declined to grant.”
Nikki Haley’s campaign at this point is mostly being supported by 5,200 wealthy Democrats who hope to defeat Trump in the GOP primary, knowing full well a Haley candidacy will lose to the Democrat since she is effectively running as one. 1,600 of these Democrats gave Haley over half a million dollars in January of this year alone.
That point is brought through by this quote from one of her biggest Democrat “supporters,” LinkedIn billionaire Reid Hoffman, who said, “While I am a staunch supporter of Biden and hope he will win a second term, I also provided financial support to Nikki Haley’s super PAC [because] my first priority is to defeat Trump, and the [Republican] primary is the first of two chances to do so.”
Nimarata ‘Nikki’ Haley’s failing presidential campaign is being bankrolled by over 5,200 former donors to Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign, lending credence to Donald Trump’s contention that she is only remaining in the race to try and damage him ahead of the general election.
The Biden donors underwriting Haley include 1,600 people who donated over $500,000 in January alone — her biggest month for donations ever, despite the fact she was crushed by Trump in Iowa, where she placed third, and New Hampshire.
Previously, the former United Nations ambassador received hundreds of thousands of dollars from Reid Hoffman, the LinkedIn billionaire and visitor to Epstein Island who has also bankrolled E. Jean Carroll and Russia hoaxers Fusion GPS.
On January 24th 2024, Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued a statement, concerning the right of the State of Texas to defend itself from invasion, because – quoting from the statement – the Federal Government as a body and specifically, the administration of President Joe Biden, have broken the Compact between the Several States and the Federal Government (the foundational concept that underpins the notion of the “United States of America”) by not simply pointedly and openly declining to defend the nation from a literal “invasion” at the southern border, but in actively taking measures to prevent the State of Texas from defending itself.
Abbott specifically cited the Biden administration failing to fulfill its duties under Article IV § 4 of the Constitution, which has now required Abbott, as Governor, to invoke Article 1 § 10 Clause 3 of the Constitution requiring him to take measures to defend the state.
This statement was issued on the heels of a frankly stunning decision by the United States Supreme Court on January 22nd, which allowed the US Border Patrol to remove razor wire barricades emplaced by Texas National Guard troops assigned to defend Texas’ border with Mexico along the Rio Grande River. In effect, the Supreme Court sided with the Biden administration in suborning an invasion of the United States.
The massive influx of illegal aliens is a subject we have discussed here previously. The fairest “neutral” assessment of the impact of illegal immigration comes from, of all places, Wikipedia:
However, given the reactions of “sanctuary cities” – most of them longtime strongholds of the Democrat Party – to having waves of “migrants” dumped (waves that are not even comparable to the numbers being dumped on Texas) on their doorsteps, not just by Republican-led states such as Texas and Florida, but by the Federal Government itself, it is clear that the staggering numbers are having an immediate, clear and disproportionate impact on the nation (leaving aside said migrants frequently complaining bitterly about the aid and shelter they are given, including appeals to citizens to house illegal aliens in churches and private homes).
In response to Governor Abbott’s January 24th statement, many politicians have begun to hysterically demand that President Biden federalize the Texas National Guard to halt the Texas program to stem the flow of illegal migrants, and to restrict them to using the legal crossing points, and to follow the established legal processes.
This situation (which has been building for well over a decade as of this writing), and the breathless demands to invoke the Insurrection Act to stop Texas’ actions, has brought the nation perilously close to an actual “civil war”, for the first time since 1860. This is because, as of this writing, some twenty-five state Governors have definitively stated their support of Governor Abbott and the state of Texas.
Actually federalizing a state’s National Guard against the wishes of their state’s governor has been done before, famously in 1957 in Arkansas in regards to the “Little Rock Nine”. A popular misconception is that a state’s National Guard cannot be federalized without that state’s governor consenting to the mobilization. As demonstrated in Arkansas, this is patently untrue.
The National Guard was created by the Militia Act of 1903, known popularly as the “Dick Act” after its sponsor, Ohio Congressman Charles Dick (R), in response to the severe manpower shortage in the US Army in the aftermath of the Spanish-American War (1898) and the subsequent campaigns against Filipino guerrillas in the Philippines Insurrection (1899-1902).
This latter campaign was hampered by American volunteers – who had been enlisted for a period of two years – insisting on being sent home after the conclusion of the war against Spain. As those who had volunteered specifically for the war against Spain were technically still a part of the Militia of the United States, they could not be required to serve longer than the conclusion of the war unless they specifically volunteered to do so.
This manpower issue came from Article 1, § 8, Clause 15 of the “Militia Clauses” (which includes Clause 16 of the same Article and Section) of the Constitution, which strictly limits the call-up and use of the Militia to executing “…the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions…” As a result, the United States quickly found itself significantly hampered in the Philippines by not having enough troops.
The “Dick Act” was written specifically to bypass the restrictions of the “Militia Clauses”, in order to create a new military entity in the form of the National Guard (and later, the Air National Guard). In effect, the “Dick Act” created a type of reserve formation for the US Army (before the creation of the actual “Army Reserve”), which (ultimately) would be equipped and trained by the US Army, but which be paid for by the states, who would also be allowed to use the military formations within the state, at the discretion of its governor. However, if the Federal government decided that they needed to mobilize the National Guard, they could do so at any time…whether a governor agrees with the Federal government or not, as was demonstrated in 1957, in Arkansas.
In the context of the hysterical demands of partisan political hacks, this would mean that President Biden would have to declare the State of Texas to be in rebellion against the United States – something that has only happened once in United States history – in order to force the Texas National Guard to disregard the orders of its state Commander in Chief in the face of an active invasion of their state.
Stop, and consider that implication.
If President Biden were to take such an ill-advised action, that would place the Texas National Guard in the position of obeying either the Federal Government – and allowing a massive invasion of their home state by massive numbers of “military-age males” who certainly did not walk north from homes in Mexico, or Central or South America, because “economic asylum seekers” do not buy airplane tickets from Africa to Mexico, in order to walk north…
…Conversely, the Texas National Guard could refuse orders to federalize. This would constitute “Mutiny”, under Article 94 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ, the legal code of the US armed forces), at the very least. This would place the Federal government in the position of having to arrest up to 19,000 peopleen masse.
In like manner, there would then be the question of the reactions of the various states and governors who have expressed their solidarity with Governor Abbott’s actions…
This perilous situation is the ultimate outcome of decades of neglect, political pandering and the abject failure of successive Federal governments to execute the most basic of their duties, duties that the Several States voluntarily allowed the Federal Government to maintain authority for, as a condition of their joining the Federal Union in 1789. Leaving aside the obtuse legalities of this situation, the reality is that the American Left – led primarily by the Democrat Party – has driven the nation to a potential breakpoint, where the States may well declare the sitting Federal Government to no longer be a legitimate body. Such an action could go in several directions, none of them good, and all of them highly dangerous.
And while pundits and armchair-warrior-gamers may believe the nearly incoherent ramblings of President Biden, the reality is that the United States military and law enforcement establishments are not able to enforce any nationwide martial law order; in fact, it is questionable if they could enforce such an order over any large metropolitan area, given what happened the last time Federal troops were deployed under “Operation Garden Plot” was engaged.
…In the end, this writer has no solution to this problem, other than telling the Federal government to do its job in securing the borders of the United States, which it has consistently failed to do for over forty years.
The alternatives are not desired by any sane person.
The Freedomist — Keeping Watch, So You Don’t Have To
If you can’t beat them, ban them. At least that’s what the Secretary of State of Maine has decided when she unilaterally decided to remove the leading candidate for President of the United States in 2024 from the Maine ballot. As Trump is booted from ballot, he is restored in another, the Colorado ballot, pending the SCOTUS appeal.
Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows made her decision based on the 14th Amendment, which bans “insurrectionists” from running for President. The major unconstitutional problem with her unhinged, seditious decision is Trump has never been charged with, let alone convicted of, “insurrection.” If anything, she joins the Colorado Supreme Court in committing an overt insurrectionist action, seeking to remove a candidate from the ballot purely to prevent them from winning in 2024. GO DEEPER
She attempted to cover up for her public declaration that she no longer operates under the American rule of law, but instead is attempting to overthrow the republic and replace it with a one-party totalitarian state, saying, “I do not reach this conclusion lightly. Democracy is sacred … I am mindful that no Secretary of State has ever deprived a presidential candidate of ballot access based on Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment. I am also mindful, however, that no presidential candidate has ever before engaged in insurrection.”
Donald Trump has not engaged in insurrection, for the record, nor has he been charged or convicted of such an action. This woman should be immediately be removed from office, arrested, and charged with sedition and high crimes and misdemeanors against the American republic.
As the state’s Attorney General, Aaron Frey, belongs to the party of sedition, the Democratic Party, this insurrectionist Secretary is not going to have to worry about facing the charges she should be facing.
Over the objections of the seditious members of the DNC-CCP still serving on the council a GOP-majority city council in California voted to remove all wokeness from the government, including holding events that glorified far left activism, like Pride Month, Black History Month, etc. The city is Huntington Beach. It will replace these events with events highlighting the history of the country, the state, and the city.
The events the city supports will not include any that showcases identity politics, or any political agenda at all.
As California City News (CCN) reports, “The Huntington Beach City Council voted Tuesday [12/19] to repeal and rescind the city’s celebration of Black History Month, Women’s History Month, Hispanic Heritage Month, Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Pride Month, and other months recognizing diversity and heritage” (read: other months encouraging division and balkanization).
“Instead, the city council will adopt a new 12-month celebratory history schedule developed by a panel of appointed members,” CCN continues. “The new agenda would ‘be free of any identity politics and political agendas,’ according to a city staff report.”
“‘I’ve been amazed to learn just how much of our rich history I was unaware of,’ said Councilman Casey McKeon from the dais on Tuesday night,” commenting on the history schedule, relates Voice of OC. “‘We wanted to focus on 12 themes a year instead of dozens to help city staff get on the same page.’”
The vote to remove wokeness from the city’s agenda went down party lines, with the DNC-CCP members voting against the measure, desperately seeking to hold on to the anti-American ideology they place over the American republic itself. Wherever Democrats have power, America’s rule of law suffers.
Let us pray the GOP members of this council hold on to power and the DNC-CCP members continue to be rightly voted out. There is no place in the American republic for “democrats” anymore.
The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to expedite considering the immunity of Donald K Trump from the type of prosecution he faces from lawfare assassin and hired DNC-CCP gun Jack Smith, meaning the trials strategically activated by the lawfare assassins and their DNC-CCP-owned judges to interfere with Trump’s ability to campaign against Mass Mailer President Joe Biden will not happen.
Instead, the Trump team can delay these trials most likely until after the election while the issue of his immunity works its way through the appeals court process until it eventually reaches the Supreme Court.
NBC News made this claim in their article covering this decision, “Steering clear of a political firestorm for now, the Supreme Court said Friday it would not immediately decide the key question of whether Donald Trump has broad immunity for actions he took as president challenging his 2020 election loss.”
This, of course, is not the case, and it makes the reader believe the court hasn’t made a strong political statement in its ruling, which, of course, it has. The decision throws a monkey wrench into the lawfare assassin’s plans to interfere with the 2024 election using trial schedules to do so.
This writer believes SCOTUS knows full well the actions by the lawfare assassins and their collusionist judges do not meet basic constitutional requirements. Their ruling portends their eventual ruling, but they want to make sure before they make such a monumental ruling that the arguments for and against have been fully flushed out so that there is no doubt as to the legal efficacy of a SCOTUS ruling to come that will essentially blunt the most potentially damaging lawfare assaults on the former President.
Of course, NBC, a content marketing company for the DNC-CCP, and overt seditionist against the American republic, isn’t giving up hope that SCOTUS could STILL deliver the type of quick action they hope will happen: As a result of the court’s refusal to intervene, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit will take first crack at the issue; it is scheduled to hear oral arguments on Jan. 9.
Once that court rules, the Supreme Court could act quickly on whether to take up the case.
In asking the court to step in on an expedited basis, Smith said the case “presents a fundamental question at the heart of our democracy: whether a former President is absolutely immune from federal prosecution for crimes committed while in office.”
Trump’s lawyers argued in court papers that Smith had given “no compelling reason” why the Supreme Court should immediately step in ahead of the appeals court.
This is not reporting, this is performing, performing for the DNC-CCP in the interest of a Progmerican Empire they dream will come, which is no America at all.
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) is accusing the Department of Justice of spying on members of congress, and he wants the head of the DOJ, Merrick Garland, to answer for it.
He wrote a letter to Garland saying, “The Committee on the Judiciary is conducting oversight of the Justice Department’s use of its law-enforcement authority to obtain the private communications of Members of Congress and congressional staff members… On November 8, the Department informed the Committee via e-mail of ‘a change to the Department of Justice’s policies and procedures in criminal investigations involving Members of Congress and their staff’ that ‘impose[s] new requirements to consult with, or receive approval from, the Public Integrity Section.’”
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) has issued a subpoena to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland to appear before his panel and explain alleged efforts to surveil members of Congress and congressional staff, which included during the so-called “Russiagate” scandal when then-President Donald Trump was in the White House.
“The Committee on the Judiciary is conducting oversight of the Justice Department’s use of its law-enforcement authority to obtain the private communications of Members of Congress and congressional staff members,” a letter from Jordan to Garland began.
U.S. Congressman Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) openly called for a revolution against the U.S. government in a video he shared on Twitter. He specifically attacked the judicial system, claiming it’s so filled with racism that it essentially needs dismantled, a constant call by the DNC-CCP that is included in its own party platform.
The use of the “white devil” to “justify” the dismantling of the republic, the dismantling of the family, the dismantling of Christianity is a tired trope at this point, and this anti-American, self-identified revolutionary should be arrested and face the highest charges one can face for openly seeking to overthrow the republic, for whatever imagined reason he assumes justifies such seditious actions.
Bowman said in the call to violent revolution, “As you know, we need a revolution within our criminal justice system. Period. Point blank. It is inhumane. It is racist. It is operating exactly as it was designed to be operating. And it is something that has been nurtured and funded historically by not just Republicans, Democrats as well. It’s connected to stop and frisk. It’s connected to just being able to pull someone over on the highway without real Just Cause. It’s connected to the lack of affordable housing in our communities. It’s connected to food insecurity. It’s connected to the lack of workforce development in our communities. It’s connected to mental health, it’s connected to miseducation. And it’s connected to substance abuse, among many other things.”
This is the same congressman that pulled a fire alarm to prevent a vote that might have shut down that same government he is openly calling on dismantling.
