Elon Musk, embroiled in his own scandal that he has dubbed “Elongate,” jumped into the “Russiagate” story that has now found its way into a federal courtroom. Over the weekend, Musk called out as a “hoax” a tweet that two-time loser Hillary Clinton posted shortly before the 2016 presidential election. “Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank,” Clinton wrote in the October 31, 2016, tweet, which included a lengthy note from one of her then-top aides, Jake Sullivan, who now serves as President Joe Biden’ national security adviser. “This could be the most direct link yet between Donald Trump and Moscow. Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank,” Sullivan wrote. “This secret hotline may be the key to unlocking the mystery of Trump’s ties to Russia. It certainly seems the Trump Organization felt it had something to hide, given that it … [Read more...] about Musk Calls Out 2016 Hillary Clinton Tweet As ‘Campaign Hoax’ | The Daily Wire

Trump has accused numerous political rivals of crimes, including Joe Biden and Barack Obama
President Donald Trump 's history of accusing political rivals of illegal activity reached a new level on Thursday when he called upon Attorney General Bill Barr to indict Joe Biden with less than a month to go until Election Day. "These people should be indicted," Trump said during a Thursday interview with Fox Business' Mornings With Maria . "This was the greatest political crime in the history of our country. And that includes Obama, it includes Biden." Trump said Barr had enough evidence to indict both his Democratic presidential opponent and former President Barack Obama for allegedly spying on his 2016 campaign. "We got plenty. You don't need any more," Trump said he told the attorney general. The president also questioned why Hillary Clinton hasn't been indicted for the email controversy that began during her time as secretary of state in Obama's administration. Newsweek reached out to the Department of Justice for comment but did not receive a response in time … [Read more...] about Trump has accused numerous political rivals of crimes, including Joe Biden and Barack Obama
House Republicans request immediate hearing into James Comey’s “reckless conduct” from IG report
Two House Republicans on the Oversight Committee are requesting that the chairman, Democrat Elijah Cummings, immediately conduct a hearing on a new report from the Justice Department's internal watchdog regarding James Comey's conduct as the former FBI director. The DOJ's office of inspector general, headed by Michael Horowitz, concluded in a lengthy report on Thursday, as part of a broader ongoing probe into the origins of the Russia investigation, that Comey "violated department and FBI policies" in leaking documents containing unclassified information to the press after he was fired that detailed private conversations he had with Trump as president and a candidate. "Because Comey's compilation and dissemination of sensitive FBI information led directly to two-plus years of political turmoil and vitriolic partisan attacks on the President, the OIG's report demands congressional attention," GOP Representatives Jim Jordan, the committee's top Republican, and Mark Meadows wrote to … [Read more...] about House Republicans request immediate hearing into James Comey’s “reckless conduct” from IG report
After Trump’s COVID infection, Biden doubles lead to 7 points in Georgia—a state democrats haven’t won since 1992
A new poll shows Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden widening his lead over President Donald Trump to 7 percentage points in Georgia, a solidly red state that hasn't gone for a Democratic candidate since 1992. In the latest Quinnipiac poll, released Wednesday, Trump trailed Biden by seven percent with 44 percent of support from likely voters in the state, compared to Biden's 51 percent. Four percent of respondents were undecided. The former vice president's lead over his Republican opponent grew by 4 points since the last poll conducted by Quinnipiac in September, which had Biden at 50 percent and Trump at 47. The last survey was taken before the two candidates faced off in their first presidential debate and Trump's coronavirus infection. Biden's favorability rating has also grown in Georgia. Today's poll showed Biden drawing a net positive favorability rating—51 percent favorable among likely voters in the state and 46 percent unfavorable. In the September survey, … [Read more...] about After Trump’s COVID infection, Biden doubles lead to 7 points in Georgia—a state democrats haven’t won since 1992
Kellyanne Conway calls Sanders nomination “payback” from Trump administration for impeachment proceedings
Kellyanne Conway, who serves as counselor to President Donald Trump, referred to the potential Democratic presidential nomination of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders as "payback" from Trump to Democrats who participated in the impeachment proceedings on Fox News Monday. Conway's comment came during a discussion of Trump's perceived retaliation against his political rivals, including the alleged existence of a so-called "hit list" of people with White House positions who do not fully support Trump's agenda. Since his acquittal on impeachment charges, Trump has relieved Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman and former Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland from their positions. Both Vindman and Sondland testified in the impeachment hearings about alleged improprieties during a telephone call between Trump and Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskiy in which Trump allegedly asked Zelenskiy to announce an investigation into the business dealings of former Vice President Joe Biden … [Read more...] about Kellyanne Conway calls Sanders nomination “payback” from Trump administration for impeachment proceedings
U.S. officials inform Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump of Russia election meddling on their behalf: Report
U.S. officials told Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and President Donald Trump that Russia is meddling in the 2020 presidential election by helping their campaigns, according to new reports. Sanders was informed last month, while Trump was informed last week of Russian attempts to boost their campaigns, sources familiar with the matter told The Washington Post and the Associated Press . The sources requested anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the intelligence. Trump has publicly denied the report, and blamed Democrats of pushing a "hoax." "Another misinformation campaign is being launched by Democrats in Congress saying that Russia prefers me to any of the Do Nothing Democrat candidates who still have been unable to, after two weeks, count their votes in Iowa. Hoax number 7!" Trump tweeted Friday morning. Sanders, however, has previously warned of election interference. In January, he said, "Let me be clear: We must not live in denial while allowing Russia and other … [Read more...] about U.S. officials inform Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump of Russia election meddling on their behalf: Report
Tucker Carlson claims Bernie Sanders “never wanted to win” presidency, says “he was a party man to the core”
Hours after Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) suspended his presidential campaign, Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Wednesday night claimed that the Vermont senator "never wanted to win" the presidency. "That's it for Sanders, he's 78 years old, he will never be the president but he did leave his mark. For two cycles in a row, Bernie Sanders evoked panic at the highest levels of the DNC," Carlson said during his monologue on Tucker Carlson Tonight , "Twice in a row, Democratic leaders managed to crush him in the end and they did that despite the fact that Sanders had a large and passionate following, as well as a genuinely populist message." Carlson then questioned how the Democratic party managed to beat him twice. "They couldn't have managed to do it without Sanders' help," he speculated. "Sanders never wanted to win, like so many ideologues, he wanted to lose. It makes him feel virtuous." To support his argument, Carlson pointed to Sanders' decision not to aggressively attack … [Read more...] about Tucker Carlson claims Bernie Sanders “never wanted to win” presidency, says “he was a party man to the core”
Bernie bows out: Here’s how many delegates Sanders had when he lost the Democratic primary in 2016
Bernie Sanders dropped out of the 2020 primary race Wednesday during a call with staffers, his campaign said—a shocking move, considering the self-described democratic socialist vowed to hang in until the end, and did just that in 2016. The Vermont senator, whose populist message for a political revolution against the wealthy elites and income inequality has transformed the Democratic Party, vowed to stay in the race unless his opponent, Joe Biden, mustered a plurality of the delegates. Results have for some time showed that Sanders is unlikely to defeat Biden, and he ended his candidacy with 914 delegates compared to the former vice president's 1,217. "I wish I could give you better news, but I think you know the truth," Sanders said during a live address on his website. "The path toward victory is virtually impossible. So, while we are winning the ideological battle, and while we are winning the support of so many young people working with people around the country, I have seen … [Read more...] about Bernie bows out: Here’s how many delegates Sanders had when he lost the Democratic primary in 2016
Biden campaign breaks record for online fundraising in August, raking in $364 million overall
Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden raised more money through small-dollar online fundraising in the month of August than any presidential candidate ever has previously in a single month. Those online receipts alone propelled the campaign to shatter the former overall single-month fundraising record. The Biden campaign announced in a Wednesday press release that Biden and the Democratic National Committee raised a combined $364.5 million last month—dwarfing what is believed to be the previous single-month record of $193 million raised by former President Barack Obama ahead of his first election in 2008. According to Biden's campaign, about 57 percent of the money ($205 million) came from small-dollar donors online, meaning the online donations alone were more than the previous overall single-month fundraising record. "That figure blows me away. And we raised it the right way, from people across the country stepping up to own a piece of this campaign, investing in the future … [Read more...] about Biden campaign breaks record for online fundraising in August, raking in $364 million overall
