The DOJ Just Happened To Uncover Biden-Ghostwriter Transcripts Amid Classified Documents Probe
|
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has revealed the discovery of 117 pages of transcribed discussions between President Biden and his ghostwriter during an ongoing lawsuit.
These transcripts were used by Special Counsel Robert Hur in his investigation of Biden's handling of classified documents.
The Oversight Project, a conservative watchdog group, highlighted this find and is negotiating with the DOJ on how to handle this new information.
The transcripts are part of over 70 hours of recordings between Biden and his ghostwriter, Mark Zwonitzer.
The Biden administration's use of executive privilege to shield these documents has been criticized, including by former Attorney General Michael Mukasey.
This revelation comes amid ongoing scrutiny of Biden's competency and handling of classified information. Read More. |
Biden Holds Grudge Against Pelosi, White House Defers To Kamala
|
President Joe Biden is still processing his exit from the 2024 presidential race, feeling both bitter and relieved about the decision.
Biden is particularly unhappy with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, whom he hasn't spoken to since being forced out of the race.
In the aftermath of this, the White House has shifted to be more deferential to Harris's team in policy and messaging decisions.
Biden, however, still plans to campaign for Harris, particularly in Pennsylvania and among demographics where he's popular. Read More. |
Kamala Unveils Plans For Grocery Price Controls |
Vice President Kamala Harris is set to announce plans for federal price controls on food and groceries, framed as a ban on price gouging and price-fixing.
Harris promises to implement these measures within her first 100 days in office if elected president, directing the Federal Trade Commission to investigate and penalize "big corporations" violating government rules.
The Democratic nominee will specifically target the meat industry, which she deems as having a history of illegal price control.
This economic policy speech will mark Harris's first major policy announcement since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee in July. Read More. |
Tim Walz Lied About His DUI While Running For Congress
|
Tim Walz, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, was arrested for drunk driving in 1995 in Nebraska.
Court and police records show Walz had a blood alcohol level of .128, above the legal limit, and was driving 96 mph in a 55 mph zone.
In his 2006 congressional campaign, Walz's team repeatedly made false statements about the incident, claiming he wasn't drinking and that hearing loss caused him to fail a sobriety test.
The campaign also falsely stated that Walz was allowed to drive himself to jail when, in fact, he was transported by a state trooper.
Walz has since acknowledged the facts of the case, admitting during his 2018 gubernatorial campaign that he had been drinking and driving.
The discrepancies between the 2006 campaign statements and the actual events have resurfaced as Walz faces renewed scrutiny as the vice presidential nominee. Read More. |

Vance has also expressed willingness to participate in a second debate on September 18 on CNN.
The agreement comes after initial skepticism from the Trump campaign about debating before the Democratic nominee was finalized.
Walz and Vance have been exchanging criticisms, particularly over Walz's military service record. Read More. |
Democratic Campaigns Have A Long History Of Using Google Ads To Manipulate News Coverage |
Democratic campaigns, including those of Kamala Harris, Elissa Slotkin, Adam Schiff, and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), have been using Google Search ads to manipulate news headlines and article descriptions.
This tactic involves promoting real news links but displaying alternate headlines and subtexts crafted by the campaigns.
Examples include Slotkin's campaign targeting opponent Mike Rogers with a fictitious headline and Schiff's campaign altering a Fox News article headline about Steve Garvey.
The DSCC used this strategy to target Republican Senators Ted Cruz and Rick Scott on the topic of Social Security.
While Google Search ads are labeled as sponsored posts, critics argue this practice is deceptive to voters seeking information about candidates or races.
Some news outlets, including the Guardian, have expressed concern about this practice and its implications for their brand and journalistic integrity. Read More. |
Peruvian Gang Leader Wanted for 23 Murders Arrested By ICE In New York |
Gianfranco Torres-Navarro, a Peruvian gang leader wanted for 23 murders in Peru, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Endicott, New York.
Torres-Navarro, leader of "Los Killers," entered the U.S. illegally at the Texas-Mexico border on May 16 and was given a notice to appear for immigration proceedings.
ICE also arrested Torres-Navarro's girlfriend, Mishelle Sol Ivanna Ortíz Ubillús, described as his right-hand and lieutenant in the criminal organization.
Torres-Navarro is accused of leading a criminal group that extorted construction companies and used violence against rivals.

Marc Kervens Beauvais, a Haitian man in the U.S. illegally, was arrested by ICE for allegedly raping a pregnant woman at a Massachusetts migrant hotel.
Beauvais faces charges including aggravated rape and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon on a pregnant victim.
He was initially released on his own recognizance by a judge, but ICE officers immediately arrested him in the courtroom.
Beauvais had entered the U.S. illegally in 2021 and was released with a notice to report for processing.
This arrest comes in the same week as another Haitian immigrant was arrested for allegedly raping a child at a different Massachusetts migrant hotel.
ICE officials emphasized their commitment to removing noncitizen offenders who pose a threat to public safety. Read More. |
U.S. Park Police Face Critical Staffing Shortage, Unable To Adequately Guard National Landmarks |
The U.S. Park Police (USPP) is facing severe staffing shortages, with current levels at their lowest since 1975.
This understaffing has led to safety concerns for both officers and the public at national landmarks in Washington D.C., New York City, and San Francisco.
Recent incidents, such as the violent protests at Union Station in Washington D.C., have highlighted the agency's inability to adequately respond due to limited resources.
Republican senators John Barrasso and Ted Cruz have criticized the Department of Interior and National Park Service for neglecting the USPP's needs.
The USPP union is pushing for legislation to address the staffing crisis but claims both political parties have neglected the agency.
The staffing shortage is affecting various responsibilities of the USPP, including patrolling federal landmarks and policing migrant shelters on federal property. Read More. |
Arrests Made In Actor Matthew Perry's Overdose Case |
Multiple individuals have been charged in connection with the accidental overdose death of actor Matthew Perry, with at least one arrest made in Southern California.
Perry died on October 28, 2023, due to the acute effects of ketamine, with contributing factors including drowning, coronary artery disease, and the effects of buprenorphine.
The Los Angeles police have been working with federal authorities to investigate the source of the ketamine Perry had consumed.
Perry's family, including his stepfather Keith Morrison, welcomed the news of law enforcement action.
This case follows a pattern of law enforcement investigating and charging individuals who supplied drugs in high-profile overdose deaths. Read More. |
What do the American people care about? According to recent polling, the economy and immigration remain their top concerns heading into the 2024 presidential election.
And that is why Vice President Kamala Harris is currently attempting to differentiate herself from President Biden.
Harris has been critical in shaping the Biden administration's economic and immigration policies.
These policies have caused pain for the American people. Savings have decreased, debt has increased, and chaos reigns at the southern border.
Kamala cannot run on this. If she calls for a continuation of Biden’s disastrous economic policies or doesn’t pledge to curb illegal immigration, she will be abandoned by voters.
But Kamala’s record on both the economy and the border is awful. No one should be surprised by this; she has been one of the most radical people in American politics for quite some time now.
She has to run against her record.
Her pivot to the center should be viewed as what it is: a disingenuous and profoundly cynical ploy to convince people that she will do the job correctly this time. |
