Here's today's roundup. | Did James Comey Call for Donald Trump’s Murder? The Secret Service Is Investigating. |
“Just James Comey casually calling for my dad to be murdered.”
That’s what Donald Trump Jr. tweeted in response to this social media post from former FBI Director James Comey.
The image shows a collection of seashells spelling “8647.” The number 86 is commonly used as slang for getting rid of someone, and Donald Trump is obviously the 47th president. Put two and two together, and it quickly becomes clear that Comey was calling for someone to get rid of the commander in chief.
Considering wannabe assassins nearly killed Trump twice in the last year, you’d think public figures like Comey would be extra careful to avoid saying anything that could appear to call for violence against America’s leader. And that’s not to mention that the president is currently in the Middle East. Why would the longtime law enforcement official post such a thing if he didn’t want to see his old boss eliminated? The Secret Service is investigating the incident. Read more.

Gabbard Says It’s Time to Lock Comey Up |
National Intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard called for James Comey’s arrest on Thursday, saying his “8647” Instagram post equates to “essentially issuing a call to assassinate” the President of the United States.
“I do,” Gabbard said when asked if she thinks the former FBI director should be in jail. “I’m very concerned for the president’s life. We’ve already seen assassination attempts. I’m very concerned for his life, and James Comey, in my view, should be held accountable and put behind bars for this,” she added.
The former congresswoman’s argument revolved around her claim that a man who once threatened her life is currently locked up as a result. If calling for Gabbard’s death can land you in jail, then why would Trump be any different?

Democrat Megadonor Accused of Serial Sexual Abuse |
The social Left’s insistence that we believe all women was one of the biggest takeaways from the #MeToo movement. They demand the public treat every word of someone claiming to be a victim of abuse as sacred; adhering to due process or even considering the possibility that their stories could be fabricated are acts of deep immorality and insufferably toxic masculinity.
One high-profile liberal, Swiss billionaire and Democrat megadonor Hansjörg Wyss, is probably wishing that wasn’t the case. A recently filed lawsuit is accusing him of serial sexual harassment and assault, committing the exact kind of crimes his fellow activists so loudly scorn.
According to the suit, Wyss found pleasure in nonconsensually placing his hand on the plaintiff’s butt and spent years desperately trying to convince her and her husband to have group sex with him. When they refused, he forced her to take a pay cut and jacked up the rent on their home.
Wyss allegedly admitted to the vile nature of his behavior in 2022, telling his accuser, "If you ever went after me for sexual harassment, you would win.” He has donated over $650 million to liberal advocacy groups. Read more.

CDC to Stop Forcing COVID Shots on Children and Pregnant Women |
It wasn’t long into the Biden administration that Americans learned an uncomfortable truth about Washington’s COVID vaccines: they don’t work.
Originally, the “experts” said the shot would stop you from getting the virus. That sounds pretty good to us, but it quickly proved false. Then, without ever apologizing for being so horribly wrong, they pivoted their message to saying getting the shot would stop you from transmitting the virus. Just shut up and take it so you don’t kill your grandmother. But that wasn’t true either.
Despite these revelations, Biden’s CDC never revoked its recommendation that everyone, all Americans six months or older, even if they’re in impeccable health, bow to authority and take the beloved jab. The vaccine’s effectiveness was entirely irrelevant.
Why would they do that? Was the entire scheme just a plot to enrich their Big Pharma donors? We’ll leave the speculating to you. The good news is that the madness is over. RFK Jr. and the Department of Health and Human Services are reportedly ending that vaccine guidance, bothering to follow the science instead of drugging up the country just for the sake of it.

“NO DOUBT”: Of Course Biden’s Brain Collapsed, Says Democrat Senator |
There’s something infuriating about Democrats finally admitting the truth about Joe Biden’s mental decline.
On one hand, it’s good to see them go against their instincts and actually be honest. We can’t complain about that. But on the other, their sudden admission that their dear leader’s cognitive functionality is similar to that of a pile of bricks rubs salt in the wounds they created by treating voters like dumb and clueless children. If they truly admired the American people, they never would have lied in the first place.
Chris Murphy became the latest liberal lawmaker to try to cover his tracks earlier this week, admitting to Politico not only that Biden’s brain eroded during his term, but that the issue was obvious the whole time.
“There’s no doubt about it,” he shamelessly said.
We’re sure Democrat voters would have appreciated that kind of honesty during the election, not just after they’re reeling from losing both houses of Congress and every swing state. Read more.

Biden Administration Claimed Keeping President’s Decline a Secret Was a Matter of National Security |
The government has a long and shameful history of using bogus “national security” claims to justify concealing secrets from the public.
The Kennedy assassination. Classified 9/11 files. Even the Martin Luther King murder.
According to a trove of documents released on Thursday, the Biden administration kept that tradition alive in 2023 by pressuring Robert Hur to keep his investigation into the former president “economical,” arguing that the criminal probe could have national security implications.
Biden lawyers wrote to Hur that his report touching “in any way upon procedures in this or prior administrations… could affect the national security interests of the United States in ways that none of us can anticipate.” Their letter argued that Hur’s report should not give a “full and complete” picture of the criminal investigation. Doing that would have alerted the world that the president was brain-dead. Read more.

Most Americans Do Not Support Collegiate DEI Worship |
The rejection of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives is one of Donald Trump’s policies that outrages the media the most. Their coverage would have you believe the overwhelming majority of Americans are devastated by the reversal of those Biden-era programs. But they’re not.
According to a new AP-NORC poll, most of the country does not support American universities’ DEI obsessions. They’d prefer people be judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin, as radical as that might sound.
Of the study’s roughly 1,200 participants, only 40% said they backed the racist initiatives, while the rest expressed opposition or neutrality. Most Democrats unsurprisingly said they condone the program that views people as demographics instead of individuals, which likely has the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr. spinning in his grave.

BACK FOR MORE: CNN to Take Another Stab at Streaming |
Remember CNN+?
That was the Cable News Network’s attempt at a streaming service, described by Brian Stelter as "the evolution of video news and the start of a new era." Some predicted it would attract as many as 2 million members in its first year, good for $120,000,000 in subscription revenue.
The reality turned out to be far more grim. Less than 1% of that amount actually subscribed, and CNN+ shut down after just 23 days. It turns out people don’t want to pay for something whose free version they don’t watch anyway. We know that may be hard to grasp.
If that story of failure has you feeling down, please allow us to present some exciting news: a new CNN+ is coming. According to the New York Times, the network is in the early stages of creating yet another digital subscription system, hoping once again that Americans will jump at the chance to cough up their hard-earned dollars for more CNN even though the regular version remains available on cable. We wish them luck. Read more.

A Pulitzer Prize? Just for Having Eyes and Ears? |
There’s plenty of discontent about this year’s Pulitzer Prize winners, and for fair reason.
Does The Washington Post really deserve recognition after helping cover up the fact that the former president had similar cognitive functionality to a container of shampoo? You know the answer.
What’s a bit more interesting is who did not win an award, and who some observers think should have.
Last June, Wall Street Journal reporters Annie Linskey and Siobhan Hughes published an article titled “Behind Closed Doors, Biden Shows Signs of Slipping.” It featured insights from dozens of lawmakers and administration officials on the former president’s steep mental decline.
Stories of mumbles and incoherent ramblings. Heavy reliance on notes even when speaking in private. Struggles in communicating basic information. Long pauses and extended eye closures.
According to Jan Crawford of CBS News, Linskey and Hughes should have won a Pulitzer for the report.
“Shame on the @PulitzerPrizes for failing to properly honor the most courageous and deeply sourced original reporting of the past year (or years),” she tweeted about the story.
The following sentiment is not meant as a criticism of the piece, which was a good story and told a truth the people in charge wanted hidden from the public. Linskey and Hughes definitely deserve praise for their work.
But a Pulitzer Prize? Isn’t that a bit of a reach? To any honest person, Biden’s mental incapacitation wasn’t exactly difficult to identify. The guy shook hands with invisible people, fell asleep during a foreign leader summit, called for a dead congresswoman, and thought he was vice president during COVID. It didn’t take a journalism degree, deep and well-trained political instincts, or even an ounce of English literacy to see that. All you needed were eyes and ears.
The fact that so few journalists chose to report the obvious truth behind those incidents that those who did seem award-worthy is as damning an indictment on the media as any. Concluding that Biden’s brain was fried was no more difficult than recognizing that the sky is blue. We hope that doesn’t become forbidden to report, too.

May 16, 1902: Two deaf-mutes do battle in Major League Baseball. New York pitcher Luther Taylor faced Cincinnati batter William Hoy, marking the first time in league history that two deaf-mute players competed directly against each other. Taylor pitched eight innings without allowing an earned run, and Hoy recorded two hits. Both athletes enjoyed successful professional careers, earning 116 wins and stealing 594 bases, respectively, and each is a member of the American Athletic Association of the Deaf Hall of Fame.
