The White House cannot admit the truth about the state of the country, so they are doing the next best thing — denying any problem exists at all, especially as it relates to the economy, the border, and life in the womb. Biden, known for tall tales and wandering aimlessly , apparently has his press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre focused on dodging any difficult question. Instead, she simply spews nonsense. On Friday, Jean-Pierre stated that Biden is working to bring down inflation “without sacrificing all of the historic gains that we made this past year and life-changing economic gains this country has made over the last 19 months.” Pardon? “Life-changing” isn’t always a good thing. Under Biden, life has changed for the worse. Jean-Pierre’s comments came just hours after the Heritage Foundation released a study showing that the average American has lost the equivalent of $4,200 in annual income since Biden took office. “This financial catastrophe for American … [Read more...] about White House Midterm Plan: Deny Reality | The Daily Wire

Former President Donald Trump is "damaging" his defense against the Justice Department's (DOJ) probe into classified documents stored at Mar-a-Lago by pursuing a special master, said former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner. The FBI raided Trump's Palm Beach, Florida, residence on August 8, seizing 20 boxes allegedly containing classified documents. Now, the DOJ is investigating whether these documents were improperly stored at Mar-a-Lago. Trump has maintained his innocence and said he declassified the documents before leaving the White House last year. Trump was handed a legal win earlier this month with the appointment of Judge Raymond Dearie to serve as the special master overseeing the DOJ's review of the Mar-a-Lago documents. His legal team pushed for Dearie's appointment, and he is now tasked with determining which records are protected by attorney-client or executive privilege . However, Trump's attorneys strategy could be backfiring after Dearie directed … [Read more...] about Trump “damaging” his case by pursuing special master legal path: Kirschner

Marc Short, who served as chief of staff to former Vice President Mike Pence , blasted Donald Trump 's claim that presidents can declassify something by thinking about it, calling the statement "absurd" on Saturday. Short's comments came during an interview on CBS in response to statements the ex-president made on Fox News on Wednesday. Last month, the FBI raided Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida, seizing thousands of files including some that were marked classified, as part of an investigation into whether Trump potentially mishandled the materials when he left the White House last year. The former president has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in regard to the documents. In his interview on Fox News, Trump said: "You can declassify just by saying it's declassified, even by thinking about it. Because you're sending it to Mar-a-Lago or to wherever you're sending." "And it doesn't have to be a process. There can be a process, but there doesn't have to be. You're … [Read more...] about Mike Pence aide blasts Trump claim he can declassify by thinking: “Absurd”

More info For years, big US drugmakers have turned to acquisitions of foreign companies to put their overseas cash to work, rather than bring it home at a 35-per cent tax rate. Mr Trump has proposed allowing repatriation of this cash at a 10-per cent tax rate, hoping some of it will be spent on hiring and investing in their businesses. However, drugmakers are much more likely to spend this money on acquisitions that could revive their drug development pipeline by acquiring smaller peers with promising offerings, as opposed to risking more of their own dollars on research and development, corporate executives and … [Read more...] about Trump’s plans to make America great again generates deals in pharmaceutical industry

Singer John Legend has credited Kanye West with his career success, as their long-time friendship continues to be strained. Legend, 43, recently stated that his relationship with West, 45, became fraught after the rapper and fashion designer criticized the musician for not supporting him during his ill-fated presidential run back in 2020. "I don't know what will happen in the future, but he was very upset with me that I didn't support him and I supported Joe Biden . It's up to him whether he can get past that," Legend said in an interview with The New Yorker earlier this month. While his friendship with West is not in the best place, Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award-winner Legend gave credit where it was due on Friday, when he spoke about the controversial star's impact on his career. "My career story can't be told without Kanye's involvement," Legend said during an appearance on U.K. TV show Good Morning Britain . "We worked together on my first album, Get Lifted … [Read more...] about John Legend credits Kanye West with career success amid fallout

Twitter permanently suspended conservative journalist and Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe on Thursday after he released his third installment of undercover videos exposing left-wing bias at CNN. Twitter claimed without evidence that O’Keefe was “violating the Twitter Rules on platform manipulation and spam.” “As outlined in our policy on platform manipulation and spam, ‘You can’t mislead others on Twitter by operating fake accounts,’ and ‘you can’t artificially amplify or disrupt conversations through the use of multiple accounts,'” Twitter said. O’Keefe immediately released a statement saying that he was suing the platform, calling their statement accusing him of “operating fake accounts” false. “I am suing Twitter for defamation because they said, I, James O’Keefe, ‘operated fake accounts.’ This is false, this is defamatory, and they will pay,” O’Keefe said . “Section 230 may have protected them before, but it will not protect them from me. The complaint will be filed … [Read more...] about Twitter Permanently Bans Journalist James O’Keefe After He Releases Videos Damaging To CNN | The Daily Wire

Boxing legend George Foreman said Sunday that he’s been pressured to stop publicly saying that he loves the United States, but will continue to do so, anyway. “For about 54 years, people have ask me not to keep saying ‘I love America,'” Foreman posted to Twitter on Independence Day. “Well I do and I’m not ashamed,” he wrote. “Don’t leave it; Love it.” “Happy 4th of July,” Foreman closed the succinct post. The former boxer used the message to caption a photo of himself with his eyes and holding the American flag after taking gold for our nation at the 1968 Olympic Games. The post quickly went viral, racking up nearly 85,000 likes by Monday. For about 54 years, people have ask me not to keep saying “I love America” Well I do and I’m not ashamed.

CNN’s Brian Stelter was confronted in a video that Project Veritas released late this week over the recent series of undercover videos that the organization released about CNN. The CNN videos showed a director at the network saying that they worked to get rid of President Donald Trump and that they create “propaganda.” A journalist for Project Veritas asked Stelter if CNN Technical Director Charlie Chester still worked for CNN, to which Stelter replied by saying, “I feel really bad for you.” The journalist asked Stelter if he uses “propaganda” or if he ever reports news outside of what CNN president Jeff Zucker allegedly tells him to report. “I feel really bad for you,” Stelter said. “Are you a journalist?” the journalist asked Stelter. “Are you able to report anything that’s not directly handed down from…?” “I report whatever I want,” Stelter said as he appeared to grow upset. “You need to leave.” WATCH: Highlights from Project Veritas’ three-part release this last … [Read more...] about WATCH: CNN’s Brian Stelter Confronted Over Explosive Videos Released By Project Veritas | The Daily Wire

A fact check from CNN noted that President Joe Biden provided incorrect statistics about gas prices during a Friday speech. While delivering remarks at an event for the Democratic National Committee, the commander-in-chief noted that prices at the pump have hit their lowest level in months — but wrongly said that many states are seeing prices below $2.99 per gallon. “Gas prices — I know I got criticized for going into the stockpile. But guess what? Gas prices are down $1.30 a gallon,” Biden said. “And in 41 states plus the District of Columbia, the average gasoline price is less than $2.99.” CNN ruled the claim false since zero states are witnessing average gas prices below $2.99 per gallon. Although Biden has accurately noted that average prices in most states were below $3.99 in previous remarks, the White House corrected the official transcript for his Friday speech — but not before the claim was aired live on CNN and MSNBC. The national average price of gasoline was … [Read more...] about CNN Jumps In To Set The Record Straight For Biden On Gas Prices | The Daily Wire

It wasn’t too long ago that Louisiana’s congressional delegation wielded much more power on the national stage than a state this size has a right to expect. In the '60s and '70s, U.S. Reps F. Edward Hébert chaired the House Armed Services Committee, Hale Boggs was House majority leader and Otto Passman chaired the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Foreign Aid — all while U.S. Sen. Russell Long led the Senate Finance Committee. With the midterm congressional elections pretty much decided in Louisiana, the delegation’s focus is on reacquiring political sway should Republicans take the majority in the U.S. House on Nov. 8. Five of Louisiana’s six congresspersons are Republicans, and none, with the possible exception of U.S. Rep. Clay Higgins, R-Lafayette, face formidable opposition. U.S. Rep. Troy Carter, of New Orleans, is the only Democrat among the six representatives Louisiana sends to the U.S. House. He also is expected to be reelected easily but will have no say in … [Read more...] about Louisiana’s Congress members jockey for power on Capitol Hill
