• Prosecutors think they have enough evidence to bring a criminal case against Hunter Biden.
• The Washington Post reported that they believe they can charge Biden with tax crimes.
• Investigators also think they can indict the younger Biden for making a false statement linked to a gun purchase.

    Federal prosecutors believe they have enough evidence to charge President Joe Biden's son, Hunter, with financial crimes and false statements, The Washington Post reported, citing people familiar with the case.
    The younger Biden first revealed the existence of the federal investigation into him in December 2020, saying in a statement that prosecutors were looking into his taxes.
    "I learned yesterday for the first time that the U.S. Attorney's Office in Delaware advised my legal counsel, also yesterday, that they are investigating my tax affairs," the statement said.    "I take this matter very seriously but I am confident that a professional and objective review of these matters will demonstrate that I handled my affairs legally and appropriately, including with the benefit of professional tax advisors."
    The Post reported Thursday that investigators also think they have enough evidence to charge Hunter Biden with making a false statement related to a gun purchase.    The US attorney in Delaware will now decide whether to move forward with a criminal case.
    CNN reported that prosecutors first started investigating Hunter Biden's taxes in 2018 but temporarily halted the probe because of Justice Department rules barring prosecutors from taking actions that could influence the outcome of an election.    Though the inquiry initially centered on Biden's taxes, it later expanded to focus on whether he failed to report all his income and if he lied on paperwork linked to a gun purchase in 2018, according to The Post.
Rep. Vern Buchanan     Rep. Vern Buchanan of Florida said Wednesday the student-loan forgiveness plan was "reckless" and "unfair" to Americans without student-loan debt "who played by the rules."     A company Buchanan owns a $50 million stake in, according to the Tampa Bay Times, had more than $2.3 million in PPP loans forgiven, per the ProPublica database, which said the funds were spent on payroll.
    An indictment against Hunter Biden would mark the biggest test yet of the president's pledge to restore independence and public trust in the Justice Department.
    Chris Clark, a lawyer representing the younger Biden, did not comment on the substance of the Post's story and accused investigators of leaking.
    "It is a federal felony for a federal agent to leak information about a Grand Jury investigation such as this one," Clark said in a statement to the paper.    "Any agent you cite as a source in your article apparently has committed such a felony.    We expect the Department of Justice will diligently investigate and prosecute such bad actors.    As is proper and legally required, we believe the prosecutors in this case are diligently and thoroughly weighing not just evidence provided by agents, but also all the other witnesses in this case, including witnesses for the defense.    That is the job of the prosecutors.    They should not be pressured, rushed, or criticized for doing their job."

10/11/2022 Biden Quietly Expands Government Spying On American Citizens by Chanel Rion – Chief White House Correspondent
    Friday, on the cusp of a 3-day weekend, President Biden signed an Executive Order lifting restrictions on how the government spies on US citizens.    The move garnered little media attention or controversy – just as the White House had hoped.
    But the ramifications of this order are raising major questions.
    Biden partially revoked Presidential Policy Directive 28 – a directive governing how federal agencies used signals intelligence to spy on citizens.    Signals intelligence includes phone calls, text messages, emails, and internet use.
    The original rule, established under President Obama, restricted the government from arbitrarily spying on US citizens.    If the government were to spy on US citizens, the government was required to apply through the courts for permission.    Policy Directive 28 was essentially a way to keep government minimally accountable as it played the role of Big Brother government listening in.
    Biden essentially lifted these restrictions Friday – including revoking a provision that would prevent the government from targeting its political enemies and critics:
    “The United States shall not collect signals intelligence for the purpose of suppressing or burdening criticism or dissent.”
    The Biden Administration has offered little explanation as to why this rule was quietly revoked.
    Critics, however cite this move as a travesty against civil liberties – citing Biden’s new executive order as an expansion of government spying on US citizens without oversight.
    That the move would help Biden further politicize the FBI and US intelligence agencies and allow the administration to plow full speed into prosecuting its critics and personal enemies lists.
    For some perspective; the original presidential directive was responsible for requiring the government to procure FISA warrants.    That is, a court document approved by a judge establishing the government’s probably cause – and in turn, giving the government license to spy on US citizens in the name of national security.
    As of Friday, and Biden’s revocation of this order, Biden has now made it so FISA warrants are no longer necessary.    The FBI, CIA, IRS, NSA, can all now claim their own probably cause in order to spy on your personal data… and potentially use it against you.
    In a climate where these agencies are credibly accused of being compromised and extended arms of the Democratic Party, the fear now grows that conservatives who hold influence will now be targets of legalized spying by the current Biden Regime and future administrations – regardless of who holds the power in Congress.

10/12/2022 Biden: ‘Consequences’ for Saudis - Democrats call for a freeze on cooperation by Aamer Madhani, ASSOCIATED PRESS
President Joe Biden said in a CNN interview he would look to consult with Congress on the way forward, but
stopped short of endorsing the Democratic lawmakers’ call to halt weapons sales to Saudi Arabia. SUSAN WALSH/AP     WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden said Tuesday there will be “consequences” for Saudi Arabia as the Riyadh-led OPEC+ alliance moves to cut oil production and Democratic lawmakers call for a freeze on cooperation with the Saudis.
    Biden suggested he would soon take action, as aides announced that the administration is reevaluating its relationship with the kingdom in light of the oil production cut that White House officials say will help another OPEC+ member, Russia, pad its coffers as it continues its nearly eight-month war in Ukraine.
    Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Rep. Ro Khanna of California introduced legislation that would immediately pause all U.S. arms sales to Saudi Arabia for one year.    This pause would also halt sales of spare and repair parts, support services and logistical support.
    But it remains to be seen how far Biden is willing to go in showing his displeasure with the Saudis, a vital but complicated ally in the Middle East.    Biden came into office vowing to recalibrate the U.S. relationship because of Saudi Arabia’s human rights record but then paid a visit to the kingdom earlier this year.
    Biden said in a CNN interview he would look to consult with Congress on the way forward, but stopped short of endorsing the Democratic lawmakers’ call to halt weapons sales.
    “There’s going to be some consequences for what they’ve done, with Russia,” Biden said.    “I’m not going to get into what I’d consider and what I have in mind.    But there will be – there will be consequences.”
    John Kirby, a White House National Security Council spokesman, said Biden believes “it’s time to take another look at this relationship and make sure that it’s serving our national security interests.”
    Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Tuesday the White House has no timeline for its review nor has the president appointed an adviser to serve as point person.
    Meanwhile, officials underscore the central role that Saudi Arabia plays in addressing broader national security concerns in the Middle East.
    Blumenthal and Khanna unveiled their legislation one day after Sen. Robert Menendez, a New Jersey Democrat, said it was unacceptable that OPEC+ had moved to cut oil production and effectively assist Moscow in its war on Ukraine.
    Menendez promised to use his position as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to block any future arms sales to the Saudis.
    Menendez did not warn the White House before announcing his intention to block future Saudi arms sales, Kirby said.
    OPEC+, which includes Russia as well as Saudi Arabia, announced last week it would cut production by 2 million barrels a day, which will help prop up oil prices that are allowing Russian President Vladimir Putin to keep paying for his eight-month invasion of Ukraine.    The production cut also hurts U.S.-led efforts to make the war financially unsustainable for Russia, threatens a global economy already destabilized by the Ukraine conflict and risks saddling Biden and Democrats with newly rising gasoline prices just ahead of the U.S. midterm elections.
    Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud told Saudi-owed Al Arabiya on Tuesday that his government’s justification of the production cuts was “purely economic.”
    Biden and European leaders have urged more oil production to ease gasoline prices and punish Moscow for its aggression in Ukraine.    Putin has been accused of using energy as a weapon against countries opposing Russia’s invasion.
    “They are certainly aligning themselves with Russia,” Jean-Pierre said.    “This is not a time to be aligning with Russia.”
    As for the Saudis, Sen. Blumenthal said, “We cannot continue selling highly sensitive arms technology to a nation aligned with an abhorrent terrorist adversary.”
    However, the White House takes note that its weapon sales to Riyadh serve, in part, as an important counterweight in the region to Iran, which is quickly moving toward becoming a nuclear power.
    “There’s 70,000 Americans living in Saudi Arabia right now, not to mention all the other troops we have throughout the region,” Kirby said.    “So, it’s not only in our interest that missile defense in the region become more integrated and cooperative.    It’s in the interest of our allies and partners in that part of the world as well.”
    Still, the pressure is mounting for Biden.    As a candidate for the White House, he vowed that Saudi rulers would “pay the price” under his watch for the 2018 killing of U.S.-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi, a critic of the kingdom’s leadership.    Biden said that he’d look to make the oil-rich country a “pariah.”
    But in July, amid rising prices at the pump around the globe, Biden decided to pay a visit to Saudi Arabia.    During the visit, he met with the Saudi crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, who he once shunned as a killer for the death of Khashoggi.    The U.S. intelligence community determined that the crown prince, often referred to by his initials MBS, likely approved the killing of Khashoggi inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.    MBS denies he was involved.

10/12/2022 Trial begins for Russian analyst who was the key source for Trump dossier - Man accused of making false statements to FBI by Matthew Barakat, ASSOCIATED PRESS
The FBI interviewed Russian analyst Igor Danchenko, center, on multiple occasions in 2017 as it tried
to corroborate allegations in what became known as the “Steele dossier.” ALEX WONG/GETTY IMAGES     ALEXANDRIA, Va. – A Russian analyst who played a major role in the creation of a flawed dossier about former President Donald Trump fabricated one of his own sources and concealed the identity of another when interviewed by the FBI, prosecutors said Tuesday.
    The allegations were aired during opening statements in the trial of Igor Danchenko, who is indicted on five counts of making false statements to the FBI.
    The FBI interviewed Danchenko on multiple occasions in 2017 as it tried to corroborate allegations in what became known as the “Steele dossier.”
    That dossier by British spy Christopher Steele – commissioned by Democrats during the 2016 presidential campaign – included allegations of contact between the Trump campaign and Russian government officials, as well as allegations that the Russians may have held compromising information over Trump in the form of videos showing him engaged in salacious sexual activity in a Moscow hotel.
    Specifically, prosecutors say, Danchenko lied when he said he obtained some information in an anonymous phone call from a man he believed to be Sergei Millian, a former head of the Russian-American Chamber of Commerce.
    Prosecutor Michael Keilty told jurors in U.S. District Court in Alexandria that Danchenko never spoke with Millian and that phone records show he never received an anonymous phone call at the time Danchenko claimed it occurred.
    Prosecutors also say Danchenko lied when he said he never “talked” with a man named Charles Dolan about the allegations contained in the dossier.    But prosecutors say there is evidence that Danchenko “spoke with Mr. Dolan over email” about very specific items that showed up in the dossier.
    The FBI needed to know that Dolan was an important source for Danchenko, Keilty said, because Dolan is a Democratic operative who has worked on the presidential campaign of every Democratic candidate since Jimmy Carter, and thus would have had motivation to fabricate or embellish allegations against Trump.
    “Those lies mattered,” Keilty said.    But Danchenko’s attorney, Danny Onorato, told jurors that his client was completely truthful with the FBI.
    He pointed out that Danchenko never said he was certain that Millian was the source of the anonymous call but that he had good reason to believe it.    The government’s case requires jurors to become “mind readers” to assess Danchenko’s subjective belief about the source of the phone call, Onorato said.
    And while phone records may not show a call, Onorato said, the government has no idea whether a call could have been placed with a mobile app rather than a traditional telephone provider.
    Indeed, Onorato said, it makes more sense that such a call would have occurred using an Internet app because so many of them conceal the source of the call, and the caller wanted to be anonymous.
    As for the allegations about his discussions with Dolan, Onorato said, Danchenko answered the question truthfully because the two did not “talk” – but rather had a written exchange.    If the FBI wanted to know about email exchanges, it should have asked a different question, Onorato said.
    “The law doesn’t let you rewrite the dictionary,” Onorato said.
    Keilty, in his opening, acknowledged to jurors that evidence would show the FBI made errors in conducting its investigations, but he said that shouldn’t exonerate Danchenko.    “A bank robber doesn’t get a pass just because the security guard was asleep,” Keilty said.
    The first prosecution witness was FBI analyst Brian Auten, who testified that information from the Steele dossier was used to support a surveillance warrant against a Trump campaign official, Carter Page.
    Under questioning from Durham, Auten testified that the dossier was used to bolster the surveillance application even though the FBI couldn’t corroborate its allegations.    Auten said the FBI checked with other government agencies to see if they had corroboration but nothing came back.    Auten and other FBI agents even met with Steele in the United Kingdom in 2016 and offered him as much as $1 million if he could supply corroboration for the allegations in the dossier, but none was provided.
    Danchenko is the third person to be prosecuted by special counsel John Durham, who was appointed to investigate the origins of “Crossfire Hurricane” – the designation given to the FBI’s 2016 probe into former president Trump’s Russia connections.    It is also the first of Durham’s cases that delves deeply into the origins of the dossier, which Trump derided as fake news and a political witch hunt.

10/13/2022 Saudi Arabia defends OPEC for cutting oil production ahead of U.S. midterms by Clyde Hughes – UPI News
    Oct. 13 (UPI) -- Saudi Arabia on Thursday pushed back against criticism from President Joe Biden and U.S. legislative leaders over OPEC's decisions to cut oil production, which will likely lead to an increase in oil and gasoline prices just before the midterm elections.

File Photo via Saudi Press Agency/UPI© SAUDI PRESS AGENCY     In a lengthy statement on social media attributed to Saudi Arabia's Foreign Ministry, it defended OPEC for the decision saying it was driven by economic conditions and not by politics in the United States or support for Russia.
    While Saudi Arabia is the de facto head of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, Russia is an important member of the broader OPEC+ group.    Russia is at odds with the United States and western Europe over its current invasion of Ukraine.
    "These outcomes are based purely on economic considerations that take into account maintaining a balance of supply and demand in the oil markets, as well as aim to limit volatility that does not serve the interests of consumers and producers," the Saudi statement said.
    Now U.S. President Joe Biden has vowed consequences to Saudi Arabia.

    "Saudi Arabia affirms that any attempts to distort the facts about the Kingdom's position regarding the crisis in Ukraine are unfortunate and will not change the Kingdom's principled position, including its vote to support U.N. resolutions regarding the Russian-Ukrainian crisis," the statement said.
    Biden said that the Saudi government would face "consequences" for its actions, which he described as aligned with Russia.
    White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said OPEC's decision appeared to support Russia and will build Moscow's war chest against Ukraine, underscoring the administration's need to "reevaluate that relationship with Saudi Arabia,/i>."
    The Saudi statement said its relationship with the United States is a strategic one built over eight decades, based on "mutual respect, enhancing common interests, actively contributing to the regional and international peace and security, counter-terrorism and extremism, and achieving prosperity for the people of the region."

10/13/2022 NY Post: FBI Targeted Trump, Protected Biden Family by OAN Newsroom
Russian analyst Igor Danchenko (R) arrives at the Albert V. Bryan U.S. Courthouse for his trial on October 11, 2022 in
Alexandria, Virginia. Danchenko faces five counts of lying to the FBI over his sources as to claims made in the
“Christopher Steele Dossier” as part of the investigation of Special Counsel John Durham into the origins of the FBI probe
of alleged collusion between Russia and the 2016 Trump presidential campaign. (Photo by Alex Wong/Getty Images)     The New York Post has reported that the FBI has deliberately targeted 45th President Donald Trump while protecting Joe and Hunter Biden.    This information comes amid a debate of political bias at the bureau.
    The opinion article was released on Wednesday.    The New York Post claimed that the FBI has framed Trump and has shielded Hunter Biden over the past few years.
    The article said that the FBI employed Russian-born analyst, Igor Danchenko, to help manufacture the false Christopher Steele Dossier.    The dossier sparked the crossfire hurricane investigation into false claims of Russia collusion.    Meanwhile, the FBI claimed that Hunter Biden’s foreign dealings were Russian propaganda, yet the bureau refused to investigate it.
    The report said that the ongoing Durham probe puts the entire FBI and its questionable methods on trial, which in turn may erode the bureau’s credibility.

10/14/2022 Trump dossier source shocked speculation portrayed as fact by Matthew Barakat, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Russian-born analyst Igor Danchenko is accused of lying to the FBI about his own sources for the
information he passed on to British spy Christopher Steele. DREW ANGERER/GETTY IMAGES     ALEXANDRIA, Va. – A Russian-born analyst who provided the bulk of the information for a flawed dossier about former President Donald Trump told an FBI agent he was shocked and dismayed that the speculative information he provided was portrayed as fact, an agent testified Thursday.
    FBI agent Kevin Helson is the second bureau employee to testify at the trial of Igor Danchenko, who’s accused of lying to the FBI about his own sources for the information he passed on to British spy Christopher Steele.
    The “Steele dossier” contained numerous allegations about connections between Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Kremlin, and also included allegations of salacious sexual activity that Trump supposedly engaged in at a Moscow hotel.
    Prosecutors say Danchenko should have been more forthcoming about his own sources and that if he had done so, the FBI would not have treated the dossier as credulously as it did.    As it turned out, the FBI used the allegations in the dossier to obtain a surveillance warrant against a Trump campaign staffer, Carter Page.
    Helson, though, offered largely positive assessments of his interviews with Danchenko when he was cross-examined by Danchenko’s attorneys.    In that respect, Helson’s testimony mirrored that of the first FBI witness, analyst Brian Auten, who contradicted the prosecution theory that Danchenko fabricated interactions with one of his supposed sub-sources, Sergei Millian.
    Helson served as Danchenko’s handler from 2017 through 2020, a time period in which Danchenko was a paid “confidential human source” for the FBI.
    Helson said Danchenko was upfront from the start that the information he gave to Steele was mere rumor and speculation, and that he had no ability to corroborate it.
    He also said Steele seemed to be telling the FBI in the months after the dossier was leaked and prompted a media frenzy that Danchenko’s sourcing was more solid than Danchenko ever claimed it to be.
    “Steele was really trying to prove it (the dossier), even during that time period, because he wanted it to be true.    And that was putting pressure on Danchenko,” Helson said.
    Danchenko is being prosecuted by Special Counsel John Durham, who was appointed by then-Attorney General William Barr to investigate any misconduct in the FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign and its alleged ties to Russia.
    Danchenko is the third person to be prosecuted by Durham.    It is the first of Durham’s cases that delves deeply into the origins of the dossier, which Trump derided as fake news and a political witch hunt.
    Durham’s other two cases resulted in an acquittal and a guilty plea with a sentence of probation.
    In the Danchenko trial, prosecutors say he lied when he told the FBI he obtained some of his information during an anonymous phone call from a man he believed to be Millian, a former head of the Russian-American Chamber of Commerce.
    Prosecutors say Danchenko never spoke with Millian and that phone records show he never received an anonymous phone call at the time Danchenko claimed it occurred.

10/15/2022 1 count tossed in trial for dossier source - Remaining charges will go to jury on Monday by Matthew Barakat, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Danchenko     ALEXANDRIA, Va. – A judge on Friday tossed out one of five counts against a think-tank analyst charged with lying to the FBI about his role in the creation of a flawed dossier about former President Donald Trump.
    The remaining four counts against Igor Danchenko will go to a jury Monday after prosecutors and the defense rested their cases Friday.
    But Judge Anthony Trenga reserved the right to toss out the other four counts regardless of what the jury decides.
    In the count that was out, prosecutors alleged that Danchenko lied to the FBI when he told an agent that he never “talked” with a Democratic operative named Charles Dolan about the information in the dossier.    As it turns out, there was evidence that Dolan and Danchenko had discussed the information over email.    Defense attorneys argued that Danchenko’s response was literally true because they did not talk orally, and the question the FBI agent asked specifically referenced talking.
    Trenga agreed, and he said that accepting the prosecution’s argument that the question had a broader context than mere talking would result in “divorcing words from their common meaning.”
    Danchenko is being prosecuted by Special Counsel John Durham, who was appointed by then-Attorney General William Barr to investigate any misconduct in the FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign and its alleged ties to Russia.
    Danchenko is the third person to be prosecuted by Durham.    It is the first of Durham’s cases that delves deeply into the origins of the “Steele dossier,” which alleged connections between Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Kremlin, and which Trump derided as fake news and a political witch hunt.
    Durham’s other two cases resulted in an acquittal and a guilty plea with a sentence of probation.
    Testimony this week at trial has highlighted Durham’s difficulty in proving his allegations.
    Two key FBI witnesses for the prosecution ended up providing testimony that was highly favorable to Danchenko, resulting in the unusual spectacle of Durham seeking to eviscerate the credibility of his own witnesses on redirect.
    In the remaining counts that will go forward, prosecutors argue that Danchenko fabricated interactions with a supposed source named Sergei Millian, who was a former president of the Russian-American Chamber of Commerce.
    Defense lawyers say Danchenko received an anonymous call from a person he believed to be Millian, and that Danchenko was forthright from the beginning with the FBI that while he suspected the call came from Millian he was not certain.
    Prosecutors say that if Danchenko had been more forthcoming about his sources the FBI would have been better equipped to judge the veracity of the dossier.
    The FBI ended up using the allegations in the dossier to obtain court-ordered surveillance against a Trump campaign official, Carter Page, even though the FBI was never able to corroborate any of the dossier’s allegations.
    Trenga’s decision to dismiss one of the five counts came Friday afternoon after prosecutors rested their case.    Defense lawyers, who have consistently criticized the case as prosecutorial overreach, said the evidence put forward by prosecutors fell far short of anything a reasonable juror could use to convict.
    “This nightmare of a case for Mr. Danchenko, it should end today,” defense attorney Stuart Sears told the judge.

10/15/2022 How the White House is bracing for potential charges against Hunter Biden by ngaudiano@insider.com (Nicole Gaudiano) – Business Insider

• President Joe Biden has stood by his son Hunter as he reportedly awaits possible criminal charges.
• But the White House faces a complicated communications challenge if federal agents move forward.
• One expert said the "best thing politically" for the president would be for his son to plead guilty.

    President Joe Biden has stood by Hunter Biden and expressed pride in how his son has overcome his drug addiction even as possible criminal charges await him.
    But the White House faces a complicated communications challenge if federal agents investigating Hunter Biden move forward with charges against him on tax crimes and a false statement on a gun application.
    Biden's likely response would be to try to "walk the line of being a father supporting his son while being the President who must not publicly criticize or challenge the indictment," said Adam Goldberg, special associate counsel to former President Bill Clinton in the late 1990s, in an email to Insider.
    "If Hunter disputes the charges, Biden's answer to the question about whether he believes his son will need to be supportive while publicly expressing respect for the prosecutors and the court system – not an easy message to craft," said Goldberg, who co-founded the strategic communications firm Trident DMG.

of Burisma Holdings, Ukraine's largest gas-production company.     He found the company through his business contacts at a controversial time, and as part of the board's anti-corruption efforts, he recommended the law firm Boies Schiller Flexner, where he was "a counsel."    A press release announced upon Hunter Biden's hiring said he was in charge of the company's international legal relations with different companies, but he later denied that characterization.    The appointment caused concerns as it came at a tense time between the White House and Russia over Ukraine and its energy dependence, sparking criticism that Hunter Biden's role with the energy giant was a blatant conflict of interest.    But the Bidens dismissed the controversy, telling media outlets that Hunter Biden is a private citizen and his business interests don't represent or affect the views of the government.
    Despite his personal affairs, Hunter Biden's biggest public troubles came from questions into his business dealings.

    But the Bidens dismissed the controversy, telling media outlets that Hunter Biden is a private citizen and his business interests don't represent or affect the views of the government.
    In a CNN interview that aired Tuesday, Biden responded for the first time to reports from the Washington Post that federal agents think they have enough evidence to charge Hunter.    "I love him.    He's on a straight and narrow, and he has been for a couple years now," Biden told CNN host Jake Tapper.
    The US Attorney in Delaware, David C. Weiss, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, will decide whether to press charges.    The White House on Thursday declined to comment on an ongoing investigation.
Reports: Federal agents believe they have enough evidence to charge Hunter Biden.
    "DOJ has standard processes for tax investigations, and this should be handled the same as any other tax investigation, free from even the appearance of political intervention," said Walter Shaub, former of the Office of Government Ethics.
    Goldberg said such communication would be "unthinkably unethical and stupid."    It's possible that Attorney General Merrick Garland could give the White House Counsel a heads up "immediately" before an indictment, but that's unlikely, he said.    The White House is most likely to learn about an expedited indictment from Hunter or his lawyers, he said.
    More than 30 Senate Republicans, in a letter to Garland last month, demanded that Weiss be extended special counsel protections to "investigate an appropriate scope of potentially criminal conduct."
    If there is a special counsel appointed, there would be a "hellish political fight" over who should be appointed and the investigation would likely be long and "ever-widening," Goldberg said.
    It would be easier for Biden politically to attack a special prosecutor or an independent counsel "because presidents have attacked them routinely," Goldberg said, but that's only a benefit if there's an actual indictment.    Right now, it's much better for there not to be one, he said.
    The fact that Weiss is a Trump appointee would potentially give Biden the political option of defending Hunter and criticizing the indictment, but the president would be unlikely to do that, he added.
    "If there's going to be an indictment, the best thing politically for Biden (though not necessarily for justice) would be for Hunter to plead guilty, which allows Biden to fully support him without risking being seen as undermining DOJ," Goldberg said.    "I can't fathom political considerations playing into Hunter's decision on that front (if there needs to be one), in part because I don't think Biden would ever want Hunter to worry about that."
    Republicans are itching to investigate Hunter Biden if they win control of Congress in the midterm elections.    Mark Corallo, a Republican and former Justice Department spokesman during the second Bush administration, told Insider the Hunter Biden investigation "reeks of politics" and blamed the national media for a "disgraceful lack of interest."
    But Eric Schultz, who served as deputy White House press secretary during the Obama administration, said Republicans had nothing to show for their previous Hunter Biden investigations the last time they had subpoena power.
    "If Republicans want to continue down that road, I think it's disgusting and cynical, especially given their approval of the last President's kids profiteering while serving in White House positions – but I mostly think it's a foolish use of their own time since we already know how the story ends," he said.

    On Wednesday and Thursday of this week, officials will decide on whether or not to add the COVID-19 mRNA shots to child and adolescent immunization schedules.
    If this happens, it opens the path to protecting the bio-tech companies from facing all lawsuits relating to injuries from the vaccines.    Any liability would be transferred to the federal government’s National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. The passing would also allow Pfizer and Moderna to introduce an FDA approved dose to the market.
    This vote comes as these companies’ liability shield from the PREP Act, invoked in March of 2020, is set to be revoked in early 2023.

    “The price of gas is still too high and we need to keep working to bring it down,” Biden said at an event.
    According to reports, the White House is looking to bring down gas prices and to balance markets ahead of the midterm elections.    The sale would market the remaining 14 million barrels from Biden’s previously released 180 million barrels. The May release was the largest-ever in the reserves history.
    White House Chief of Staff, Ron Klain, tweeted that the President Biden is set to announce the sales sometime this week.

10/19/2022 Analyst acquitted in trial over Trump dossier - Investigation targeting discredited information by Matthew Barakat, ASSOCIATED PRESS
The case against Igor Danchenko was the first of the three to delve deeply into the origins of the “Steele dossier.” MANUEL BALCE CENETA/AP FILE     ALEXANDRIA, Va. – A jury on Tuesday acquitted on all counts a think tank analyst accused of lying to the FBI about his role in the creation of a discredited dossier about former President Donald Trump.
    The case against Igor Danchenko was the third and possibly final case brought by Special Counsel John Durham as part of his probe into how the FBI conducted its own investigation into allegations of collusion between the 2016 Trump campaign and the Kremlin.
    The first two cases ended in an acquittal and a guilty plea with a sentence of probation. Danchenko betrayed no emotion as the verdict was read.    His wife wiped away tears after the fourth and final “not guilty” was read by the clerk.    The acquittal marked a significant setback for Durham, who declined to comment after the hearing, as did several jurors.
    Despite hopes by Trump supporters that the prosecutor would uncover a sweeping conspiracy within the FBI and other agencies to derail his candidacy, and then his presidency, the investigation over the course of more than three years failed to produce evidence that met those expectations.
    The sole conviction – an FBI agent admitted altering an email related to the surveillance of a former Trump aide – was for conduct uncovered not by Durham but by the Justice Department’s inspector general, and the two cases that Durham took to trials ended in across-the-board acquittals.
    The Danchenko case was the first of the three to delve deeply into the origins of the “Steele dossier,” a compendium of allegations that Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign was colluding with the Kremlin.
    Most famously, it alleged that the Russians could have blackmail material on Trump for his supposed interactions with prostitutes in a Moscow hotel.    Trump derided the dossier as fake news and a political witch hunt when it became public in 2017.
    Danchenko, by his own admission, was responsible for 80% of the raw intelligence in the dossier and half of the accompanying analysis, though trial testimony indicated that Danchenko was shocked and dismayed about how Steele presented the material and portrayed it as factual when Danchenko considered it more to be rumor and speculation.
    Prosecutors said that if Danchenko had been more honest about his sources, the FBI might not have treated the dossier so credulously.    As it turned out, the FBI used material from the dossier to support applications for warrantless surveillance of a Trump campaign official, Carter Page, even though the FBI never was able to corroborate a single allegation in the dossier.
    Prosecutors said Danchenko lied about the identity of his own sources for the material he gave to Steele.    The specific charges against Danchenko allege that he essentially fabricated one of his sources when the FBI interviewed him to determine how he derived the material he provided for the dossier.
    Danchenko told the FBI that some of the material came when he received an anonymous call from a man he believed to be Sergei Millian, a former president of the Russian-American Chamber of Commerce.
    Prosecutors said Danchenko’s story made no sense.    They said that phone records show no evidence of a call, and that Danchenko had no reason to believe Millian, a Trump supporter he’d never met, was suddenly going to be willing to provide disparaging information about Trump to a stranger.
    Danchenko’s lawyers, as a starting point, maintain that Danchenko never said he talked with Millian.    He only guessed that Millian might have been the caller when the FBI asked him to speculate.    And they said he shouldn’t be convicted of a crime for making a guess at the FBI’s invitation.
    That said, Danchenko’s lawyers say, he had good reason to believe the caller may well have been Millian.
    The call came just a few days after Danchenko had reached out to Millian over email after a mutual acquaintance brokered a connection over email.
    And Danchenko’s lawyers say it’s irrelevant that his phone records don’t show a call because Danchenko told the FBI from the start that the call might have taken place over a secure mobile app for which he had no records.
    The jury began deliberations Monday afternoon after hearing closing arguments on four counts.

10/19/2022 Biden to release 15 M barrels from oil reserve - More possible after OPEC+ production cuts by Josh Boak and Zeke Miller, ASSOCIATED PRESS
President Joe Biden has sought for the country to move away from
fossil fuels by committing to zero-emission plans. EVAN VUCCI/AP     WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden will announce the release of 15 million barrels of oil from the U.S. strategic reserve Wednesday as part of a response to recent production cuts announced by OPEC+ nations, and he will say more oil sales are possible this winter, as his administration rushes to be seen as pulling out all the stops ahead of next month’s midterm elections.
    Biden will deliver remarks Wednesday to announce the drawdown from the strategic reserve, senior administration officials said Tuesday on the condition of anonymity to outline Biden’s plans.    It completes the release of 180 million barrels authorized by Biden in March that was initially supposed to occur over six months.    That has sent the strategic reserve to its lowest level since 1984 in what the administration called a “bridge” until domestic production could be increased. The reserve now contains roughly 400 million barrels of oil.
    Biden will also open the door to additional releases this winter in an effort to keep prices down.    But administration officials would not detail how much the president would be willing to tap, nor how much they want production to increase by in order to end the drawdown.
    Biden will also say that the U.S. government will restock the strategic reserve when oil prices are at or lower than $67 to $72 a barrel, an offer that administration officials argue will increase domestic production by guaranteeing a baseline level of demand.    Yet the president is also expected to renew his criticism of the profits reaped by oil companies – repeating a bet made this summer that public condemnation would matter more to these companies than shareholders’ focus on returns.
    It marks the continuation of an about-face by Biden, who has tried to move the U.S. past fossil fuels to identify additional sources of energy to satisfy U.S. and global supply as a result of disruptions from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and production cuts announced by the Saudi Arabia-led oil cartel.
    The prospective loss of 2 million barrels a day – 2% of global supply – has had the White House saying Saudi Arabia sided with Russian President Vladimir Putin and pledging there will be consequences for supply cuts that could prop up energy prices.    The 15 million-barrel release would not cover even one full day’s use of oil in the U.S., according to the Energy Information Administration.
    The administration could make a decision on future releases a month from now, as it requires a month and a half for the government to notify would-be buyers.
    Biden still faces political headwinds because of gas prices.    AAA reports that gas is averaging $3.87 a gallon.    That’s down slightly over the past week, but it’s up from a month ago.    The recent increase at prices stalled the momentum that the president and his fellow Democrats had been seeing in the polls ahead of the November elections.
    An analysis Monday by Clear-View Energy Partners, an independent energy research firm based in Washington, suggested that two states that could decide control of the evenly split Senate – Nevada and Pennsylvania – are sensitive to energy prices.    The analysis noted that gas prices over the past month rose above the national average in 18 states, which are home to 29 potentially “at risk” House seats.
    Even if voters want cheaper gasoline, expected gains in supply are not materializing because of a weaker global economy.    The U.S. government last week revised downward its forecasts, saying that domestic firms would produce 270,000 fewer barrels a day in 2023 than was forecast in September. Global production would be 600,000 barrels a day lower than forecast in September.
    The hard math for Biden is that oil production has yet to return to its pre-pandemic level of roughly 13 million barrels a day.    It’s about a million barrels a day shy of that level.    The oil industry would like the administration to open up more federal lands for drilling, approve pipeline construction and reverse its recent changes to raise corporate taxes.    The administration counters that the oil industry is sitting on thousands of unused federal leases and says new permits would take years to produce oil with no impact on current gas prices.    Environmental groups, meanwhile, have asked Biden to keep a campaign promise to block new drilling on federal lands.
    Biden has resisted the policies favored by U.S. oil producers.    Instead, he’s sought to reduce prices by releasing oil from the U.S. reserve, shaming oil companies for their profits and calling on greater production from countries in OPEC+ that have different geopolitical interests, said Frank Macchiarola, senior vice president of policy, economics and regulatory affairs at the American Petroleum Institute.
    “If they continue to offer the same old so-called solutions, they’ll continue to get the same old results,” Macchiarola said.
    Because fossil fuels lead to carbon emissions, Biden has sought to move away from them entirely with a commitment to zero emissions by 2050.    When discussing that commitment nearly a year ago after the G-20 leading rich and developing nations met in Rome, the president said he still wanted to also lower gas prices because at “$3.35 a gallon, it has profound impact on working-class families just to get back and forth to work.”
    Since Biden spoke of the pain of gas at $3.35 a gallon and his hopes to reduce costs, the price has on balance risen another 15.5%.
    Oil production has yet to return to its pre-pandemic level of roughly 13 million barrels a day.    The oil industry would like the administration to open up more federal lands for drilling, approve pipeline construction and reverse its recent changes to raise corporate taxes.

10/20/2022 Trump Slams Federal Judge Over Claims About 2020 Election by OAN Newsroom
(Photo credit should read SAUL LOEB/AFP via Getty Images)     Donald J. Trump is taking aim at a federal judge over his allegations about the 2020 election.
    In a Truth Social Post on Thursday, Trump said that Clinton-appointed District Judge David Carter is making “very nasty, wrong, and ill-informed” statements about him.
    During a ruling on Wednesday, Carter accused the 45th President of engaging in a conspiracy to defraud the United States.    As a result, attorney John Eastman was ordered to turn over dozens of documents.    In addition, the judge ordered four emails between Eastman and Trump to be sent to the January 6th Committee.
    “The emails show that President Trump knew that the specific numbers of voter fraud were wrong but continued to tout those numbers, both in court and to the public,” Carter said.    “The Court finds that these emails are sufficiently related to and in furtherance of a conspiracy to defraud the United States.”
    Trump claims that he knows nothing about the case and is not being represented in the matter.    He then went on to call Carter a “Partisan Hack” who doesn’t understand the facts.

on September 20, 2022 in Washington, DC. (Photo by Win McNamee/Getty Images)     Former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr says the court of public opinion has a different ruling on the origins of the Russia hoax.
    On Wednesday, Barr said that while he was disappointed with the court’s decisions amid the Durham probe, the public currently knows about the collusion between the DNC, the FBI and the Hillary Clinton campaign.
    This comes after the FBI Steele Dossier source, Igor Danchenko, was acquitted just months after Clinton-linked lawyer Michael Sussmann was fired for lying to the FBI about the Trump-Russia collusion.
    Barr stressed that Durham’s case was hard to prove because of the limited access to evidence.     “The public interest here is being served by exposing the full extent of corruption that was involved in the Russia-gate and the abuse of by the FBI and that whole episode,” Barr said.    “And I think that Durham is going to put out a report out that’s gonna lay out all the facts.”
    Barr went on to say that with Durham’s expected to report on his findings, the Republicans on Capitol Hill will have a solid foundation to investigate further if they take over Congress after the midterm elections.

10/22/2022 Republican National Committee Sues Google Over Email Spam Filters
    (Reuters) – The Republican National Committee (RNC) filed a lawsuit against Google on Friday, for allegedly sending its emails to users’ spam folders.
    The U.S. political committee accuses the tech giant of “discriminating” against it by “throttling its email messages because of the RNC’s political affiliation and views,” according to a lawsuit filed in the Eastern District of California.
    “Google has relegated millions of RNC emails en masse to potential donors’ and supporters’ spam folders during pivotal points in election fundraising and community building,” the RNC said in the lawsuit.
    Google did not immediately respond to a request from Reuters for comment.
    Spam filters on email services typically weed out unsolicited “spam” messages and divert them to a separate folder.
    The RNC said that for most of the month, nearly all of its emails end up in users’ inboxes but at the end of the month, which is an important time for fund-raising, nearly all of their emails end up in spam folders.
    “Critically, and suspiciously, this end of the month period is historically when the RNC’s fundraising is most successful,” the lawsuit said, adding that it doesn’t matter whether the email is about donating, voting, or community outreach.
    The committee said the “discrimination” had been going on for about 10 months despite its best efforts to work with Google.
    It said the fact that so much of its mail was going to spam folders had cost it revenue and it would cost it more in coming weeks as midterm elections loom.
    Republicans have long accused tech giants of discriminating against conservative views and suppressing free speech.
    The tech companies deny that.

10/23/2022 GOP committee sues Google over email spam filters - RNC accuses tech giant of bias as midterms near by Jill Colvin and Michael Liedtke, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said the
RNC is “suing Google for their blatant bias against Republicans.” CHRIS O’MEARA/AP     SAN FRANCISCO – The Republican National Committee has filed a lawsuit against tech giant Google, alleging the company has been suppressing its email solicitations ahead of November’s midterm elections – an allegation Google denies.
    The lawsuit, filed in the District Court for the Eastern District of California Friday evening, accuses Gmail of “discriminating” against the RNC by unfairly sending the group’s emails to users’ spam folders, impacting both fundraising and get-out-the-vote efforts in pivotal swing states.
    “Enough is enough – we are suing Google for their blatant bias against Republicans,” said RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel in a statement to The Associated Press.    “For ten months in a row, Google has sent crucial end-of-month Republican GOTV and fundraising emails to spam with zero explanation.    We are committed to putting an end to this clear pattern of bias.”
    Google, in a statement, denied the charges.    “As we have repeatedly said, we simply don’t filter emails based on political affiliation.    Gmail’s spam filters reflect users’ actions,” said spokesperson José Castañeda, adding that the company provides training and guidelines to campaigns and works to “maximize email deliverability while minimizing unwanted spam.”
    The lawsuit focuses on how Google’s Gmail, the world’s largest email service with about 1.5 billion users, screens solicitations and other material to help prevent users from being inundated by junk mail.    To try to filter material that account holders may not want in their inboxes, Google and other major email providers create programs that flag communications likely to be perceived as unwelcome and move them to spam folders that typically are rarely, if ever, perused by recipients.
    The suit says Google has “relegated millions of RNC emails en masse to potential donors’ and supporters’ spam folders during pivotal points in election fundraising and community building” – particularly at the end of each month, when political groups tend to send more messages.
    “It doesn’t matter whether the email is about donating, voting, or community outreach.    And it doesn’t matter whether the emails are sent to people who requested them,” it reads.
    Google contends its algorithms are designated to be neutral, but a study released in March by North Carolina State University found that Gmail was far more likely to block messages from conservative causes.    The study, based on emails sent during the U.S. presidential campaign in 2020, estimated Gmail placed roughly 10% of email from “leftwing” candidates into spam folders, while marking 77% from “right-wing” candidates as spam.
    Gmail rivals Yahoo and Microsoft’s Outlook were more likely to favor pitches from conservative causes than Gmail, the study found.
    The RNC seized upon that study in April to call upon the Federal Election Commission to investigate Google’s “censorship” of its fundraising efforts.
    Since then, the commission has approved a pilot program that creates a way for political committees to get around spam filters so their fundraising emails find their way into recipients’ primary inboxes.    Gmail is participating in the “Verified Sender Program,” which allows senders to bypass traditional spam filters, but also gives users the option of unsubscribing from a sender.    If the unsubscribe button is hit, a sender is supposed to remove that Gmail address from their distribution lists.

10/25/2022 DOJ charges - 13 Chinese nationals - Two are accused of obstruction in fed probe by Kevin Johnson and Bart Jansen, USA TODAY
Attorney General Merrick Garland charged 13 individuals for alleged efforts
to unlawfully exert influence. kevin dietsch/Getty Images     WASHINGTON – Justice Department officials unsealed charges Monday against 13 Chinese operatives involved in three influence campaigns, including two intelligence officers accused in a brazen attempt to obstruct a federal criminal investigation into the Chinese-based telecommunications company Huawei.
    The obstruction case, federal authorities said, represented a stunning attempted intervention in the U.S. criminal justice system in which the suspects, Dong He, also known as Guochun He, and Zheng Wang, also known as Zen Wang, allegedly led an effort to steal files and other information from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Brooklyn, New York, related to the ongoing federal criminal investigation and prosecution of Huawei.
    The company’s identity was not included in court documents, but a person familiar the matter confirmed that it was Huawei.
    The suspects, who remain at large, allegedly paid a $41,000 Bitcoin bribe to a U.S. government employee, who was actually working as a double-agent for the FBI.
    'The defendants believed they had recruited the U.S. government employee as an asset,' Attorney General Merrick Garland said.     'But in fact, the individual they recruited actually was a double agent, working on behalf of the FBI.'
    The two other cases involved efforts to force the repatriation of a Chinese national living in the United States, and a long-running Chinese intelligence operation to recruit U.S. residents to act as agents for China.
    'Each of these cases lays bare the Chinese government’s flagrant violation of international laws, as they work to project their authoritarian view around the world,' FBI Director Christopher Wray said.
    Wray referred to the obstruction case as 'yet another example... to give underhanded help to one of their companies accused of breaking our intellectual property laws – and deny justice to that company’s victims.'br>     In the alleged repatriation effort, an eight-count indictment unsealed in Brooklyn accused seven suspects, two of whom were arrested by federal authorities Oct. 20 in New York, of conducting surveillance of a U.S. resident while engaging in a campaign of harassment.
    They aimed to force their target to return to the PRC as part of an international extralegal repatriation effort known as 'Operation Fox Hunt.'
    The lead defendant, Quanzhong An, the majority owner of a hotel in Queens, allegedly acted at the direction of China’s Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, federal authorities said.
    In New Jersey, four Chinese nationals, including three Ministry of State Security intelligence officers, were accused in a wide-ranging and systematic effort to target and recruit individuals to act on behalf of China in the United States from 2008 to 2018.
    The group asked college professors, former law enforcement workers and homeland security officials for information, equipment and assistance to the Chinese government in ways that would further China’s intelligence objectives, according to the government.
    In exchange, the defendants allegedly offered paid trips to China, federal officials said.

California, on October 6, 2022. (Photo by RINGO CHIU / AFP) (Photo by RINGO CHIU/AFP via Getty Images)     A study has revealed that people aged between 18-39, who have had the second dose of the Moderna vaccine, have suffered from more cases of myocarditis than compared to those who have received the Pfizer vaccine.
    The recent study released by the American College of Cardiology pointed out that the increased cases of myocarditis was mainly found in those who received the vaccines BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273.
    Myocarditis is the inflammation of the heart muscle.    Symptoms include chest pain and fever.
    Dr. Simone Gold mentioned that manufacturers, such as Pfizer and Moderna, need to be held accountable for their actions.
    “We were censored for exposing the dangers of these experimental biological agents,” Gold said.    “Now, even the creators of the “vaccines” are forced to recognize the truth.”
    Moderna spokesman, Luke Mircea-Willats, responded to the accusations by stating that the vaccines are safe.
    “mRNA-1273 has been administered to hundreds of millions of people worldwide and has been shown to be effective against both the original strain of the virus and its major variants,” Mircea-Willats said.
    Despite detailing the relationship between myocarditis and the Moderna vaccines, medical experts indicate that they are only ‘casually linked’ and not directly related.

11/16/2022 Trump seeks White House again - Decision comes amid GOP losses, legal probes by Jill Colvin and Bernard Condon, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Former President Donald J. Trump speaks at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Fla., on Tuesday, where he stood flanked by
more than 30 American flags and banners that read, “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” THOMAS CORDY/PALM BEACH POST     PALM BEACH, Fla. – Former President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he will mount a third White House campaign, launching an early start to the 2024 contest.    The announcement comes just a week after an underwhelming midterm showing for Republicans and will force the party to decide whether to embrace a candidate whose refusal to accept defeat in 2020 pushed American democracy to the brink.
    “I am tonight announcing my candidacy for president of the United States,” Trump said to an audience of several hundred supporters, club members and gathered press in a chandeliered ballroom at his Mar-a-Lago club, where he stood flanked by more than 30 American flags and banners that read, “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump enters the race in a moment of political vulnerability.    He hoped to launch his campaign in the wake of resounding GOP midterm victories, fueled by candidates he elevated during this year’s primaries.    Instead, many of those candidates lost, allowing Democrats to keep the Senate and leaving the GOP with a path to only a bare majority in the House.
    Far from the undisputed leader of the party, Trump is now facing criticism from some of his own allies, who say it’s time for Republicans to look to the future, with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis emerging as an early favorite White House contender.
    The former president is still popular with the GOP base.    But other Republicans, including former Vice President Mike Pence, are taking increasingly public steps toward campaigns of their own, raising the prospect that Trump will have to navigate a competitive GOP primary.
    He’s launching his candidacy amid a series of escalating criminal investigations, including several that could lead to indictments.    They include the probe into dozens of documents with classified markings that were seized by the FBI from Mar-a-Lago and ongoing state and federal inquiries into his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.    Another campaign is a remarkable turn for any former president, much less one who made history as the first to be impeached twice and whose term ended with his supporters violently storming the Capitol in a deadly bid to halt the peaceful transition of power on Jan. 6, 2021.
    But Trump, according to people close to him, has been eager to return to politics and try to halt the rise of other potential challengers.    Aides have spent the last months readying paperwork, identifying potential staff and sketching out the contours of a campaign that is being modeled on his 2016 operation, when a small clutch of aides zipping between rallies on his private jet defied the odds and defeated far better-funded and more experienced rivals by tapping into deep political fault lines and using shocking statements to drive relentless media attention.
    Even after GOP losses, Trump remains the most powerful force in his party.    For years he has consistently topped his fellow Republican contenders by wide margins in hypothetical head-to-head matchups.    And even out of office, he consistently attracts thousands to his rallies and remains his party’s most prolific fundraiser, raising hundreds of millions of dollars.
    But Trump is also a deeply polarizing figure.    Fifty-four percent of voters in last week’s midterm elections viewed him very or somewhat unfavorably, according to AP VoteCast, a survey of more than 94,000 voters nationwide.    And an October AP-NORC poll found even Republicans have their reservations about him remaining the party’s standard-bearer, with 43% saying they don’t want to see him run for president in 2024.
    Trump’s candidacy poses profound questions about America’s democratic future.    The final days of his presidency were consumed by a desperate effort to stay in power, undermining the centuries- old tradition of a peaceful transfer.    And in the two years since he lost, Trump’s persistent lies about election fraud have eroded confidence in the nation’s political process.    By late January 2021, about two-thirds of Republicans said they did not believe President Joe Biden was legitimately elected in 2020, an AP-NORC poll found.
    VoteCast showed roughly as many Republican voters in the midterm elections continued to hold that belief.
    While some Republicans with presidential ambitions, like former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, have long ruled out running against Trump, others have said he would not figure into their decisions, even before his midterm losses.
    They include Pence, who released a book Tuesday, and Trump’s former secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, as well as former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who ran against Trump in 2016.    Other potential candidates include Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott and Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin.    Trump is also likely to face challenges from members of the anti-Trump wing of the party like Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan and Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, vice chair of the House committee that has been investigating Jan. 6.
    But Trump enters the race facing enormous challenges beyond his party’s growing trepidations.    The former president is the subject of numerous investigations, including the monthslong probe into the hundreds of documents with classified markings found in boxes at Mar-a-Lago.
    Meanwhile, Trump is facing Justice Department scrutiny over efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.    In Georgia, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is investigating what she alleges was “a multi-state, coordinated plan by the Trump Campaign” to influence the 2020 results.
    And in New York, Attorney General Letitia James has sued Trump, alleging his namesake company engaged in decades’ worth of fraudulent bookkeeping by misleading banks about the value of his assets.    The Trump Organization is also on trial, facing criminal tax fraud charges.    Meanwhile, Trump’s company is licensing its name for a golf resort in Oman in the first of what the company hopes will be several overseas deals, raising conflict-of-interest issues.
    The Trump Organization said the licensing deal – the first since Trump left office – is with Saudi developer Dar Al Arakan and will include a golf course, hotel and thousands of residential units in the Oman capital of Muscat.
    Trump’s son Eric, who oversees the company’s global real estate interests, told The AP on Tuesday that the company is no longer bound by a self-imposed restriction not to make foreign deals while his father was president.
    “You can expect more hotel and golf deals overseas in the future,” Eric Trump said in a text exchange.
    Trump’s company struck many real estate licensing deals overseas before he entered the White House, including for hotels and residential towers in Canada, Dubai, Mexico, India and Turkey.
    With Trump running again, the company may feel pressure to move fast to add to the Oman deal.    Asked if the company would halt such deals if his father was elected, Eric Trump responded, “Why would we do anything differently?”
    The New York Times, which first reported the deal with the Saudi developer, said the $1.6 billion Oman resort will have an estimated 400 hotel rooms and 3,500 residential units.

    At Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday, Trump announced a third campaign to reclaim the Oval Office.    He promises to immediately tackle record-high inflation and restore border security as he launches another bid for the White House.
    One week after the polls closed in the midterm elections, Trump addressed the success of various candidates he endorsed.
    Throughout the event, Trump spoke about several national issues brought on by the Biden administration.
    The former president stressed the need for secure borders as he claimed that 10 million people had entered illegally under the Biden administration, acknowledged the rising crime that had been increasing across the country under democrat rule and called for the crowd to bring prosperity back to the red, white and blue.
    Trump is the first major candidate to announce his 2024 presidential bid amid rumors that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) could potentially challenge him in the Republican primary, while 46th President Joe Biden has also hinted at a possible run for reelection.

11/17/2022 FBI: TikTok is security threat by Natalie Neysa Alund, USA TODAY
FBI Director Christopher Wray says China can weaponize TikTok data. Getty Images     FBI Director Christopher Wray told Congress this week that he is 'extremely concerned' Beijing could weaponize data collected through TikTok, the popular app owned by the Chinese company ByteDance.
    During a House Homeland Security Committee hearing Tuesday, Wray flagged the risk that the Chinese government could harness the app to influence users or control their devices.
    Wray said application programming interfaces, or APIs, that ByteDance embeds in the short-form video hosting are a national security concern because Beijing could use them to 'control data collection of millions of users or control the recommendation algorithm, which can be used for influence operations.'
    'China’s fast-hacking program is the world’s largest, and they have stolen more of Americans’ personal and business data than every other nation combined,' he said.
    According to Wray, the FBI has seen a surge in cybersecurity cases, and as the numbers have increased, so has the complexity of the investigations.
    'We’re investigating over 100 different ransomware variants and each one of those with scores of victims as well as a whole host of other novel threats posed by both cybercriminals and nation-states alike,' he said.
    Wray said APIs in TikTok could control software on millions of devices, meaning the Chinese government could compromise personal devices owned by Americans.

Wednesday, Nov. 16, 2022, in New York. (AP Photo/John Minchillo)     Mike Pence has announced that he will not support Donald Trump’s campaign for president in 2024.
    When speaking to CNN’s Jake Tapper on Wednesday, Pence seemed to disapprove of a Donald Trump 2024 presidential bid.
    Additionally, Pence claimed that the Americans he’s spoken with do not want to return to the Trump administration’s economic policies.
    “The American people are looking for new leadership,” Pence remarked.    “Leadership that will unite our country around our highest ideals.    Leadership that will reflect the civility and respect that most Americans have for one another.    You know, once you get out of politics, you learn pretty quickly that while our politics is very divided, the American people actually get along pretty well every day, and treat each other with kindness and with decency and with respect.”
    Pence, who disagreed with Trump’s claims of a stolen presidential election in 2020, has distanced himself from the 45th president since then.
    Later in the interview, the former vice-president went on to claim that voters want a new face for leadership in this country and there will be better options in the 2024 presidential election than Trump.
    “In the Republican Party, whether it’s as a candidate or simply a part of the cause, I, I think we’ll have better choices than my old running mate,” Pence said.    “I think America longs to go back to the policies that were working for the American people.    But I think it’s time for new leadership in this country that will bring us together around our highest ideals.”
    Pence moved on to the nature of his relationship with President Trump in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election.    The former vice-president made the decision to confirm Joe Biden’s victory, despite protests from Trump and his supporters.    In subsequent interviews, Pence has repeatedly stated that his actions were in compliance with the duties imparted to him in the Constitution.
    “We parted amicably, as much as we could in the aftermath of those events,” the former vice president said.    “We spoke from time to time after we both left office.    But Jake, after the president rhetoric that he was using before that tragic day in January, criticizing me and others who had taken a stand for the Constitution of the United States, I just determined it was best to go our separate ways.    And we have.”
    In the meantime, Pence has been floated around as a potential candidate in the 2024 presidential election.

    During a press conference on Thursday, House Oversight Committee Ranking Member James Comer (R-Ky.) said the panel will focus on the President in its forthcoming probe into his family’s activities abroad.    It is believed that there is a possible connection in regards to Hunter Biden’s “business” transactions and the decisions made by his father during his term as a prominent political figure.

    According to GOP lawmakers, 150 suspicious activity reports from major banks have been connected to Hunter Biden.    Comer noted that Republicans have discovered evidence that raises serious questions about whether or not the President is a national security risk or if he is compromised by foreign countries.
    Congressman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) also spoke at the press conference.    During his speech he slammed the media and the Democrats for labeling the Hunter Biden story as Russian disinformation.

11/18/2022 Biden Admin. Moves To Shield Saudi Crown Prince In Lawsuit Over Killing Of Journalist Jamal Khashoggi by OAN Newsroom

(Photo credit should read FAYEZ NURELDINE/AFP via Getty Images)     The Biden administration told a U.S. Court that Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed Bin Salman is immune from litigation.    This case is regarding the 2018 killing of the Washington Post journalist, Jamal Khashoggi.
    The Crown Prince was named Saudi’s Prime Minister back in September.    This came after U.S. intelligence determined that Bin Salman ordered the killing of Khashoggi.
    Back in 2019, when Biden was still just a presidential candidate, he pledged to hold Bin Salman accountable over the matter.     “I think it was a flat-out murder,” the Democrat said.    “And I think we should have nailed it as that.    I publicly said at the time we should treat it that way and there should be consequences relating to how we deal with those — that power.”
    A lawsuit was initially filed by Khashoggi’s widow, and by the late journalists civil rights group, Democracy for the Arab World Now.    In a court filing on Thursday, attorneys for the Justice Department argued that as the head of a sitting government, Bin Salman was immune from a civil lawsuit.
    The possibility of the United States government punishing Prince Mohammed for the murder of Khashoggi, a resident of the Washington metropolitan region, was rejected by Biden in February 2021.    Biden claimed that at the time, there had never been a precedence for the U.S. to act against the head of a key partner.
    The State Department described the administration’s request for the Saudi Crown Prince to be exempt from prosecution in American courts as “pure legal determination.”    According to the State Department, upholding the idea of “sovereign immunity” contributes to ensuring that American leaders don’t have to worry about being hauled into international courts to defend themselves against claims from other nations.
    The application is not legally binding, and the judge will eventually determine whether to award immunity.    Thursday’s filing will likely lead to the dismissal of the case.

accelerated roll-out of Covid-19 booster jabs. (Photo by PAUL FAITH/AFP via Getty Images)     Officials have announced that COVID-19 booster shots are going unused by a wide margin across the country.    This has sparked mass concern over the possibility of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations surging again this winter.
    According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), only 10% of people, about 30 million, aged five and older have received the updated bivalent shots.
    The new bivalent boosters, which target two Omicron subvariants as well as the original viral strain, were purchased by the federal government in dosages totaling more than 170 million.
    While uptake has been consistently minimal for children, older people are largely avoiding the new shots.     Reports have showed that only 27% of those aged 65 and older have received the latest dose.
    According to some public health experts, a lack of outreach and the wrong kind of messaging from health officials are contributing to the delayed uptake of the modified booster. Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Georgetown University, made a statement about the issue.
    “Anecdotally, it sounds like a lot of people are still not aware that the bivalent boosters are available,” Rasmussen said.    “If they are, many don’t seem to understand the importance of getting boosted at all—with bivalent or original recipe—and there is a decided lack of urgency in communications about it.”
    If people received the updated boosters at the same rate as the yearly flu shot it is estimated that up to 100,000 hospitalizations may be averted and 9,000 lives could be spared this winter.

    During a presser on Thursday, soon-to-be House Oversight Committee Chairman, Representative James Comer (R-Ky.) announced the GOP lead probe into Hunter Biden’s business dealings.    Comer claimed that while Americans are reeling from high energy costs, the president and first son are involved in a scheme to sell off America’s most valuable natural resource.
    Comer shirked Joe Biden’s supposed congratulations to House Republicans for securing a majority by letting the commander-in-chief know he’s the prime target of the investigation.    The Kentucky Republican said he has evidence that proves the elder Biden acted as a door man during his time in government to aid his family’s business ventures at the expense of the American taxpayer.
    Comer outlined that any improper usage of the offices Joe Biden occupied to benefit his family will come to light in the next Congress.    The incoming oversight chairman declared that Republicans have identified at least 50 countries in which Biden family business dealings took place with Hunter Biden acting as the operation’s bag man.
    Comer alleged that the Biden’s planned to sell one of the world’s largest sources of Colbalt to the Chinese Communist Party and engaged in business with suspected human traffickers.    These transactions have generated at least 150 suspicious activity reports with U.S. based banks.    The probe will also focus on the Biden family’s involvement with the deep state apparatus.
    Incoming judicial committee chairman Representative Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) pledged the executive branch will be held accountable to shielding political allies and cudgeling their opponents.
    The execution of the probe is expected to begin in January, when the 118th Congress is sworn in.

    Jack Smith began his prosecutorial career in 1994.    He was an assistant District Attorney with the New York County District Attorney’s office.

named a special counsel to oversee the Justice Department’s investigation into Trump’s Florida estate and
a separate probe involving the 2021, insurrection and efforts to undo the 2020 election. REBECCA BLACKWELL/AP     WASHINGTON – Attorney General Merrick Garland named a special counsel on Friday to oversee the Justice     Department’s investigation into the presence of classified documents at former President Donald Trump’s Florida estate as well as key aspects of a separate probe involving the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection and efforts to undo the 2020 election.
    The appointment of veteran prosecutor Jack Smith, announced just three days after Trump formally launched his 2024 candidacy, is a recognition of the unmistakable political implications of two investigations that involve not only a former president but also a current White House hopeful.    It installs a new chain of command over sensitive probes seen as likely to accelerate now that the midterm elections have concluded, with Garland citing Trump’s entry into the race and President Joe Biden’s stated intention to run again as reasons for Smith’s sudden appointment.
    “The Department of Justice has long recognized that in certain extraordinary cases, it is in the public’s interest to appoint a special prosecutor to independently manage an investigation and prosecution,” Garland said from the Justice Department’s podium.
    Trump addressed the news Friday night at an America First Policy Institute gala at Mar-a-Lago, slamming what he described as the “appalling announcement today by the egregiously corrupt Biden administration and their weaponized Department of Justice.”
    He called it a “horrendous abuse of power” and “the latest in a long series of witch hunts,” and insisted he’d “done nothing wrong,” Smith, who led the Justice Department’s public integrity section in Washington and later served as the acting chief federal prosecutor in Nashville, Tennessee, during the Obama administration, is set to begin his work immediately, Garland said.    He has been serving since 2018 as chief prosecutor for the special court in The Hague that is tasked with investigating international war crimes.    The Justice Department described Smith as a registered independent, an effort to blunt any attack of perceived political bias.
    “Throughout his career, Jack Smith has built a reputation as an impartial and determined prosecutor who leads teams with energy and focus to follow the facts wherever they lead,” Garland said.
    “The extraordinary circumstances here demand it,” Garland said of the appointment.
    In a statement released by the Justice Department, Smith said he intended to do his work independently and “in the best traditions of the Department of Justice.”
    “The pace of the investigations will not pause or flag under my watch,” he vowed.
    As special counsel, Smith will inherit two ongoing probes that both touch Trump.    One concerns potential interference in the transfer of power following the 2020 presidential election, when Trump allies scrambled for ways to overturn the results of the contest won by Biden.    The other involves the retention of classified documents at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida.
    The Mar-a-Lago probe has escalated especially quickly, with prosecutors this month granting immunity to a close Trump ally to secure his testimony before a federal grand jury.    Investigators in that case have interviewed a broad range of witnesses and, in court filings, have cited legal concerns over the presence of top-secret materials in Mar-a-Lago despite strict procedures that govern the handling of classified information.

11/19/2022 Pence says he’s ‘closing the door’ on testifying by Savannah Kuchar, USA TODAY
Former Vice President Mike Pence doesn’t like 'partisan nature.'     Mike Pence shut down the possibility of testifying before the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack Wednesday, which comes months after saying he would consider testifying if asked by the committee.
    'Congress has no right to my testimony,' Pence said in an interview with Margaret Brennan of 'Face the Nation' on CBS.
    The former vice president said during a live event in August that if invited to testify, he would be open to it, with some reservations about the unusual circumstances.
    'Any invitation directed at me, I’d have to reflect on the unique role I was serving in as vice president,' Pence said at that time.
    But this week, he said he believes his testimony would set 'a terrible precedent,' adding criticism of the House committee.
    'I’m closing the door on that,' Pence said.    'The partisan nature of the Jan. 6 committee has been a disappointment to me.'
    The committee defended itself in a series of tweets, saying its work has not been partisan but 'truthful.'     'The Select Committee has proceeded respectfully and responsibly in our engagement with Vice President Pence,' it wrote.

11/20/2022 GOP pushes Hunter Biden probe - Dems relaunch effort to counter investigations by Colleen Long, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Reps. Kevin McCarthy, right, and Steve Scalise, R-La., are seen Tuesday in Washington. Republican lawmakers and their staff for the past year
have been analyzing messages and financial transactions found on a laptop that belonged to Hunter Biden. Patrick Semansky/AP     WASHINGTON – Even with their threadbare House majority, Republicans doubled down last week on using their new power next year to investigate the Biden administration and, in particular, the president’s son.
    But the midterm results have emboldened a White House that has long prepared for this moment.    Republicans secured much smaller margins than anticipated, and aides to President Joe Biden and other Democrats believe voters punished the GOP for its reliance on conspiracy theories and Donald Trump-fueled lies over the 2020 election.
    They see it as validation for the administration’s playbook for the midterms and going forward to focus on legislative achievements and continue them, in contrast to Trump-aligned candidates whose complaints about the president’s son played to their most loyal supporters and were too far in the weeds for the average American.    The Democrats retained control of the Senate, and the GOP’s margin in the House is expected to be the slimmest majority in two decades.
    'If you look back, we picked up seats in New York, New Jersey, California,' said Mike DuHaime, a Republican strategist and public affairs executive.    'These were not voters coming to the polls because they wanted Hunter Biden investigated – far from it.    They were coming to the polls because they were upset about inflation.
    They’re upset about gas prices. They’re upset about what’s going on with the war in Ukraine.'
    But House Republicans used their first news conference after clinching the majority to discuss presidential son Hunter Biden and the Justice Department, renewing long-held grievances about what they claim is a politicized law enforcement agency and a bombshell corruption case overlooked by Democrats and the media.
    'From their first press conference, these congressional Republicans made clear that they’re going to do one thing in this new Congress, which is investigations, and they’re doing this for political payback for Biden’s efforts on an agenda that helps working people,' said Kyle Herrig, the founder of the Congressional Integrity Project, a newly relaunched, multimillion-dollar effort by Democratic strategists to counter the onslaught of House GOP probes.
    Inside the White House, the counsel’s office added staff months ago and beefed up its communication efforts, and staff members have been deep into researching and preparing for the onslaught.    They’ve worked to try to identify their own vulnerabilities and plan effective responses. But anything the House seeks related to Hunter Biden, who is not a White House staffer, will come from his attorneys, who have declined to respond to the allegations.
    Rep. James Comer, incoming chairman of the House Oversight Committee, said there are 'troubling questions' of the utmost importance about Hunter Biden’s business dealings and one of the president’s brothers, James Biden, that require deeper investigation.    He said they were examining the president, too.
    'Rooting out waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government is the primary mission of the Oversight Committee,' said Comer, R-Kentucky.    'As such, this investigation is a top priority.'
    Republican legislators promised a trove of new information this past week, but what they have presented so far has been a condensed review of a few years’ worth of complaints about Hunter Biden’s business dealings, going back to conspiracy theories raised by Trump.
    Hunter Biden joined the board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma in 2014, around the time his father, then vice president, was helping conduct the Obama administration’s foreign policy with Ukraine. Senate Republicans have said the appointment may have posed a conflict of interest, but they did not present evidence that the hiring influenced U.S. policies, and they did not implicate Joe Biden in any wrongdoing.
    Republican lawmakers and their staff for the past year have been analyzing messages and financial transactions found on a laptop that belonged to Hunter Biden. They long have discussed issuing congressional subpoenas to foreign entities that did business with him, and they recently brought on James Mandolfo, a former federal prosecutor, to assist with the investigation as general counsel for the Oversight Committee.
    The difference now is that Republicans will have subpoena power to follow through.
    'The Republicans are going to go ahead,' said Tom Davis, a Republican lawyer who specializes in congressional investigations and legislative strategy.    'I think their members are enthusiastic about going after this stuff ... there are a lot of unanswered questions.    Look, the 40-year trend is parties under-investigate their own and over-investigate the other party.    It didn’t start here.'
    Hunter Biden’s taxes and foreign business work are already under federal investigation, with a grand jury in Delaware hearing testimony in recent months.
    While he never held a position on the presidential campaign or in the White House, his membership on the board of the Ukrainian energy company and his efforts to strike deals in China have long raised questions about whether he traded on his father’s public service, including reported references in his emails to the 'big guy.'
    Joe Biden has said he’s never spoken to his son about his foreign business, and nothing the Republicans have put forth suggests otherwise.    And there are no indications that the federal investigation involves the president.
    On Friday, Garland appointed a special counsel to oversee the Justice Department’s investigation into the presence of classified documents at Trump’s Florida estate as well as key aspects of a separate probe involving the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection and efforts to undo the 2020 election.
    Trump, in a speech Friday night at his Mar-a-Lago estate, slammed the development as 'the latest in a long series of witch hunts.'
    Of Joe and Hunter Biden, he asked, 'Where’s their special prosecutor?'

    The two turkeys involved in the latest iteration of the long running White House tradition were donated by the National Turkey Federation. Both Chocolate and Chip hail from North Carolina.     Chocolate weighs 46-pounds and Chip weighs 47-pounds.
    “We have more chickens than anybody in the nation in Delaware, but we don’t have turkeys,” Biden said.    “Look at this.    God love you.    Now.    This is chocolate, right?    Chocolate.    You are pardoned and you are a pardoned.”
    Chocolate and Chip are now headed to North Carolina State University.    Biden said that the University has one of the best poultry science departments in the nation.
    During his speech, the Democrat seemed to take a jab at Republicans by referencing a red wave.
    “The only ‘red wave’ this season is going to be a German Shepherd, Commander, knocks over the cranberry sauce on our table,” Biden said.

turkeys at the White House in Washington, Monday, Nov. 21, 2022. (AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster)     CBS News has confirmed that data on laptop reportedly belonging to Hunter Biden is real.
    On Monday, after commissioning an independent forensic review, CBS reported that the contents of the laptop are Hunter’s.    They briefly indicated that there was no proof that the data on the computers had been altered or falsified in any manner.
    One of the digital forensic investigators claimed that there was just one thing that caught his eye in particular.    It was a voicemail that appeared to have been left by Joe Biden during the height of his son’s drug addiction.
    This revelation comes after The New York Post published a story on the hard drive’s contents just one month before the 2020 presidential election.    At the time, news outlets criticized and disregarded the claim as false.
    Several sites have confirmed that the commercial arrangement with a Chinese energy company, which Hunter Biden was associated with, has no evidence to suggest that the president had either profited from or committed any misconduct.
    House Republicans are pursuing a probe into Hunter Biden and the Biden family’s foreign business dealings.

    Republicans are set to retake the House in the next Congress after Trump-endorsed Kevin Kiley (R-Calif.) won a House seat.    His victory increased the GOP’s House majority to 218, the number required for a majority in the lower chamber.
    Last week, McCarthy was nominated as the next Speaker of the House with 188 votes. His challenger, Representative Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), received 31 votes.    He needs 218 votes to be the confirmed winner.
    In a Facebook post on Monday, McCarthy (R-Calif.) said every Congressional session will begin with a prayer and with the pledge of allegiance, no exceptions.
    The Republican’s promise garnered immense praise from followers, with some saying it will foster respect for the U.S. within the House.
    McCarthy has also pledged to bar several Democrat lawmakers who have attacked America’s allies, given an advantage to America’s adversaries, and eroded trust in America’s institutions when he becomes House Speaker.
    This includes, Representatives Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) and Adam Schiff (D-Calif.).

11/22/2022 Western Soccer Teams Abandon Woke Agenda At World Cup by OAN Newsroom

match versus Iran on November 21, 2022 in London, England. (Photo by Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)     National teams and sports organizations turned a blind eye to Qatar’s human rights record for the world cup.     On Monday, seven European teams released a joint statement, confessing that they would not be sporting the rainbow “one love” arm bands as planned.
    The move was in reaction to world soccer monopoly, FIFA, threatening to impose sporting sanctions on squads that displayed the LGBTQ+ fashion statement.    The European Union spokeswoman Dana Spinant of the European Commission, dodged questions on the matter, simply saying it supports the gesture but she failed to back the same agenda abroad.
    “Of course, we can’t make a statement on that,” Spinant said.    “We don’t have the competence to discuss matters such as these with the teams.    All we can say is that for us, it’s very important that the meaning behind the rainbow armband is recognized.    It’s matters that we attach a great deal of importance to in Europe and in the world as well.”
    Europe has become Squamish around the issue due to the host nation’s harsh laws concerning homosexuality.
    Qatari law demands a one-to-three-year prison sentence for individuals who instigate or seduce males or females, and for those who commit illegal or immoral actions including sodomy.    Same-sex incidents can land offenders in prison for up to seven years.
    Under the Qur’anic Sharia Law, as accepted in Qatar, same-sex relationships are punishable by death.    LGBTQ+ visitors to the country have filed complaints for being unfairly detained.    There have been multiple allegations of physical abuse and sexual harassment leveled at the Gulf State’s security forces.
    Some detainees have even said that they were forced to attend conversion therapy in exchange for their release.
    However, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who said America’s foreign policy will be guided by equity, has failed to address such standards on the “unifying” nature of soccer.
    “But it’s an incredibly powerful way of bringing people together.    And what we see is some of you talked about some of the differences and the divisions in the world,” Blinken said.    “It’s just a powerful reminder of what sport brings us together across geography, across backgrounds and across groups of one kind or another.”
    The U.S. Men’s National Team was able to bring some of their “woke messaging” to Qatari soil, as their training facility features a One Nation pride mural.    However, their virtue signaling was no match for Sharia Law, as the team did not display any LGBTQ+ insignias in its opening match against Wales.
    LGBTQ+ rights are not the only hot button issue when it comes to Qatar. The country’s male guardianship Law requires women to obtain male approval for most major life decisions.    The Gulf State also seized the passports of thousands of migrant workers in order to entrap them to build the World Cup stadiums.    The project claimed thousands of lives.
    Despite the west’s elevation of women, LGBTQ+ and overall human rights, FIFA President Gianni Infantino says it is Europe that should hide its head in shame.
    “I think for what we have been doing for 3,000 years around the world, we should be apologizing for the next 3,000 years before starting to give moral lessons to people,” Infantino said.
    Qatar outlawed the sale of alcoholic beverages at World Cup stadiums two days before the opening ceremony, leading Ecuador fans to chant “we want beer” in their two-to-zero humiliation defeat of the host country.

    On Tuesday, Comer (R-Ky.) fired off letters to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, HHS Chief Xavier Becerra and as well as to two others.    There, he demand information about the administration’s policies.    Comer discussed the matter in a written statement to The Daily Mail.
    “Oversight Republicans are investigating the domestic and international business dealings of President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, and other Biden associates and family members to determine whether these activities compromise U.S. national security and President Biden’s ability to lead with impartiality,” Comer wrote.    “Hunter and other members of the Biden family have a pattern of peddling access to the highest levels of government to enrich themselves.    The American people deserve to know whether the president’s connections to his family’s business deals occurred at the expense of American interests and whether they represent a national security threat.”
    Comer, who is expected to become the House Oversight Committee Chairman, contended that the administration’s policies have fueled the illegal immigration and fentanyl crisis as well as the mismanagement of taxpayer dollars.
    He pointed out that Oversight Republicans will be relentless in their pursuit to hold Biden administration officials accountable.

11/26/2022 After a year, omicron still drives surges, worries - Cases, deaths rise as virus finds ways to evade immunity by Laura Ungar, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Carey Johnson and her son Fabian Swain have had COVID-19. Fabian recovered quickly,
but Johnson had a headache for weeks. Other problems lingered longer. CAROLYN KASTER/AP     A year after omicron began its assault on humanity, the ever-morphing coronavirus mutant drove COVID-19 case counts higher in many places just as Americans gathered for Thanksgiving.    It was a prelude to a wave that experts expect to soon wash over the U.S.
    Phoenix-area emergency physician Dr. Nicholas Vasquez said his hospital admitted a growing number of chronically ill people and nursing home residents with severe COVID-19 this month.
    “It’s been quite a while since we needed to have COVID wards,” he said.    “It’s making a clear comeback.”
    Nationally, new COVID cases averaged around 39,300 a day as of Tuesday – far lower than last winter but a vast undercount because of reduced testing and reporting. About 28,000 people with COVID were hospitalized daily and about 340 died.
    Cases and deaths were up from two weeks earlier.    Yet a fifth of the U.S. population hasn’t been vaccinated, most Americans haven’t gotten the latest boosters and many have stopped wearing masks.
    Meanwhile, the virus keeps finding ways to avoid defeat.
    The omicron variant arrived in the U.S. just after Thanksgiving last year and caused the pandemic’s biggest wave of cases.    Since then, it has spawned a large extended family of subvariants, such as those most common in the U.S. now: BQ.1, BQ.1.1 and BA.5.    They edged out competitors by getting better at evading immunity from vaccines and previous illness – and sickening millions.
    Carey Johnson’s family got hit twice.    She came down with COVID-19 in January during the first omicron wave, suffering flu-like symptoms and terrible pain that kept her down for a week.    Her son Fabian Swain, 16, suffered much milder symptoms in September when the BA.5 variant was dominant.
    Fabian recovered quickly, but Johnson had a headache for weeks. Other problems lingered longer.
    “I was like, ‘I cannot get it together.’    I could not get my thoughts together.    I couldn’t get my energy together” said Johnson, 42, of Germantown, Maryland.    “And it went on for months like that.”
Hot spots emerge
    Some communities are being particularly hard hit right now. Tracking by the Mayo Clinic shows cases trending up in states such as Florida, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico.     In Arizona’s Navajo County, the average daily case rate is more than double the state average.    Dr. James McAuley said 25 to 50 people a day are testing positive for the coronavirus at the Indian Health Service facility where he works.    Before, they saw just a few cases daily.    McAuley, clinical director of the Whiteriver Indian Hospital, which serves the White Mountain Apache Tribe, said they are “essentially back to where we were with our last big peak” in February.
    COVID-19 is part of a triple threat that also includes flu and the virus known as RSV.
    Dr. Vincent Hsu, who oversees infection control for AdventHealth, said the system’s pediatric hospital in Orlando is nearly full with kids sickened by these viruses.    Dr. Greg Martin, past president of the Society of Critical Care Medicine, sees a similar trend elsewhere.
    Pediatric hospitals’ emergency departments and urgent care clinics are busier than ever, said Martin, who practices mostly at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta.    “This is a record compared to any month, any week, any day in the past,” he said.
    Looking to the future, experts see the seeds of a widespread U.S. wave.    They point to what’s happening internationally – a BA.5 surge in Japan, a combination of variants pushing up cases in South Korea, the start of a new wave in Norway.
    Some experts said a U.S. wave could begin during the holidays as people gather indoors.    Trevor Bedford, a biologist and genetics expert at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, said it could peak at around 150,000 new cases a day, about what the nation saw in July.
    A new wave would be rough, said Dr. Mark Griffiths, medical director of the emergency department of Children’s Health Care of Atlanta-Spalding Hospital.    “So many systems are on the brink of just being totally overburdened that if we get another COVID surge on top of this, it’s going to make some systems crack.”
    One bright spot? Deaths are likely to be much lower than earlier in the pandemic.    About 1 in 2,000 infections lead to death now, compared with about 1 in 200 in the first half of 2020, Bedford said.
Omicron’s yearlong reign
    The same widespread immunity that reduced deaths also pushed the coronavirus to mutate.    By the end of last year, many people had gotten infected, vaccinated or both.    That “created the initial niche for omicron to spread,” Bedford said, since the virus had significantly evolved in its ability to escape existing immunity.
    Omicron thrived.    Mara Aspinall, who teaches biomedical diagnostics at Arizona State University, noted that the first omicron strain represented 7.5% of circulating variants by mid-December and 80% just two weeks later. U.S. cases at one point soared to a million a day.    Omicron generally caused less severe disease than previous variants, but hospitalizations and deaths shot up given the sheer numbers of infected people.
    The giant wave ebbed by mid-April.    The virus mutated quickly into a series of subvariants adept at evading immunity.    A recent study in the journal Science Immunology says this ability to escape antibodies is due to more than 30 changes in the spike protein studding the surface of the virus.
    Omicron evolved so much in a year, Bedford said, it’s now “a meaningless term.”
    That rapid mutation is likely to continue.
    “There’s much more pressure for the virus to diversify,” said Shishi Luo, head of infectious diseases for Helix, a company that supplies viral sequencing information to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
    Doctors said the best protection against the bubbling stew of subvariants remains vaccination.    And officials said Americans who got the new combination booster targeting omicron and the original coronavirus are currently better protected than others against symptomatic infection.
    Dr. Peter Hotez, co-director of the Center for Vaccine Development at Texas Children’s Hospital, said getting the booster, if you’re eligible, is “the most impactful thing you could do.”
    Doctors also urge people to continue testing, keep up preventive measures such as masking in crowds, and stay home when sick.
    “COVID is still a very significant threat, especially to the most vulnerable,” said Dr. Laolu Fayanju of Oak Street Health in Cleveland, which specializes in caring for older adults.    “People have to continue to think about one another.    We’re not completely out of the woods on this yet.”

11/25/2022 Biden: The Idea We Still Allow Semi-Automatic Weapons To Be Purchased Is Sick by OAN Newsroom

responders during the Thanksgiving Day holiday, on November 24, 2022. (Photo by MANDEL NGAN/AFP via Getty Images)     President Joe Biden appears to admit he has no respect for the Second Amendment.
    On Thursday after handing out pies to firefighters in Nantucket, Biden told reporters that he would be working on gun control measures in the next coming months.
    Even after being arrested for bomb threats, the Colorado nightclub shooting suspect’s evasion of the state’s strict red flag laws prompted the president to push for them to be even stricter.
    Biden went on to call for a ban on practically all legal weapons.
    “The idea, the idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick.    It’s just sick,” Biden said.    “It has no, no social redeeming value.    Zero.    None.    Not a single solitary rationale for it, except profit for the gun manufacturer.”
    Democrats often attempt to make hunting rifles like the AR-15 sound more dangerous by using the word semi-automatic, however almost ever legal firearm sold in the U.S. are semi-automatic, barring bolt action rifles and some revolvers.
    His comments come as recent polling also shows a declining support for gun control laws.

11/26/2022 GUN VIOLENCE - Emboldened Biden, Dems push stricter firearm laws - New rules far off in split Congress by Colleen Long, Mary Clare Jalonick and Lindsay Whitehurst, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Semi-automatic rifles are displayed in Auburn, Maine. President Joe Biden and Democrats
have become increasingly emboldened in pushing for stronger gun laws. ROBERT F. BUKATY/AP FILE     WASHINGTON – When President Joe Biden speaks about the “scourge” of gun violence, his go-to answer is to zero in on so-called assault weapons.
    America has heard it hundreds of times, including this week after shootings in Colorado and Virginia: The president wants to sign into law a ban on high-powered guns that have the capacity to kill many people very quickly.
    “The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick.    Just sick,” Biden said on Thanksgiving Day.    “.”
    After the mass killing last Saturday at a gay nightclub in Colorado Springs, he said in a statement: “When will we decide we’ve had enough? … We need to enact an assault weapons ban to get weapons of war off America’s streets.”
    When Biden and other lawmakers talk about “assault weapons,” they are using an inexact term to describe a group of high-powered guns or semi-automatic long rifles, like an AR-15, that can fire 30 rounds fast without reloading.    By comparison, New York Police Department officers carry a handgun that shoots about half that much.
    A weapons ban is far off in a closely divided Congress. But Biden and the Democrats have become increasingly emboldened in pushing for stronger gun controls – and doing so with no clear electoral consequences.
    The Democratic-led House passed legislation in July to revive a 1990s-era ban on “assault weapons,” with Biden’s vocal support.    And the president pushed a ban nearly everywhere that he campaigned this year.
    Still, in the midterm elections, Democrats kept control of the Senate and Republicans were only able to claim the slimmest House majority in two decades.
    The tough talk follows passage in June of a landmark bipartisan bill on gun laws, and it reflects steady progress that gun control advocates have been making in recent years.
    “I think the American public has been waiting for this message,” said Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., who has been the Senate’s leading advocate for stronger gun control since the massacre of 20 children at a school in Newtown, Connecticut, in 2012.    “There has been a thirst from voters, especially swing voters, young voters, parents, to hear candidates talk about gun violence, and I think Democrats are finally sort of catching up with where the public has been.”
    Just over half of voters want to see nationwide gun policy made more strict, according to AP VoteCast, an extensive survey of more than 94,000 voters nationwide conducted for The Associated Press by NORC at the University of Chicago.    About 3 in 10 want gun policy kept as is.    Only 14% prefer looser gun laws.
    There are clear partisan divides. About 9 in 10 Democrats want stricter gun laws, compared with about 3 in 10 Republicans.    About half of Republicans want gun laws left as they are and only one-quarter want to see gun laws be made less strict.
    Once banned in the United States, the high-powered firearms are now the weapon of choice among young men responsible for many of the most devastating mass shootings.    Congress allowed the restrictions first put in place in 1994 on the manufacture and sales of the weapons to expire a decade later, unable to muster the political support to counter the powerful gun lobby and reinstate the weapons ban.
    When he was governor of Florida, current Republican Sen. Rick Scott signed gun control laws in the wake of mass shootings at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and a night club in Orlando.    But he has consistently opposed weapons bans, arguing like many of his Republican colleagues that most gun owners use them lawfully.
    “People are doing the right thing, why would we take away their weapons?” Scott asked as the Senate was negotiating gun legislation last summer.    “It doesn’t make any sense.”
    He said more mental health counseling, assessments of troubled students and law enforcement on campus make more sense.
    “Let’s focus on things that actually would change something,” Scott said.
    Law enforcement officials have long called for stricter gun laws, arguing that the availability of these weapons makes people less safe and makes their jobs more dangerous.
    Mike Moore, chief of the Los Angeles Police Department, the country’s third largest, said it just makes sense to talk about guns when gun violence is rising nationwide, and consider what the government can do to make the streets safer.
    On Tuesday, six people were shot dead at a Walmart in Virginia.    Over the past six months there has been a supermarket shooting in Buffalo, New York; a massacre of school children in Uvalde, Texas; and the July Fourth killing of revelers in Highland Park, Illinois.
    The legislation that Biden signed in June will, among other things, help states put in place “red flag” laws that make it easier for authorities to take weapons from people judged to be dangerous.
    But a ban was never on the table.
    A 60-vote threshold in the Senate means some Republicans must be on board.    Most are are steadfastly opposed, arguing it would be too complicated, especially as sales and varieties of the firearms have proliferated.    There are many more types of these high-powered guns today than in 1994, when the ban was signed into law by President Bill Clinton.
    “I’d rather not try to define a whole group of guns as being no longer available to the American public,” said Republican Sen. Mike Rounds of South Dakota, who is a hunter and owns several guns, some of them passed down through his family.    “For those of us who have grown up with guns as part of our culture, and we use them as tools – there’s millions of us, there’s hundreds of millions of us – that use them lawfully.”
    Biden was instrumental in helping secure the 1990s ban as a senator.    The White House said that while it was in place, mass shootings declined, and when it expired in 2004, shootings tripled.
    The reality is complicated.    The data on the effectiveness is mixed and there is a sense that other measures that are not as politically fraught might actually be more effective, said Robert Spitzer, a political science professor at the State University of New York-Cortland and author of “The Politics of Gun Control.”
    Politically, the ban sparked a backlash, even though the final law was a compromise version of the initial bill, he said.    “The gun community was furious,” Spitzer said.
    The ban has been blamed in some circles for the Democrats losing control of Congress in 1994, though subsequent research has shown that the loss was likely more about strong, well-funded conservative candidates and district boundaries, Spitzer said.
    Still, after Democrat Al Gore, who supported stricter gun laws, lost the 2000 White House race to Republican George W. Bush, Democrats largely backed off the issue until the Sandy Hook shooting in 2012.
    Now, gun control advocates see progress.
    “The fact that the American people elected a president who has long been a vocal and steadfast supporter of bold gun safety laws – and recently reelected a gun sense majority to the Senate – says everything you need to know about how dramatically the politics on this issue have shifted,” said John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety.

11/30/2022 Russia protests pope comments - Ukraine is ‘martyred’ victim, Vatican says by Nicole Winfield and Joanna Kozlowska, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Throughout the nine-month war, Pope Francis has tried to spare direct condemnation
of Moscow for fear of antagonizing the Russian Orthodox Church. ANDREW MEDICHINI/AP     ROME – Russia has lodged a formal protest with the Vatican over Pope Francis’ latest condemnation of atrocities in Ukraine, in which the pontiff blamed most of the cruelty on Chechens and other minorities in an apparent effort to spare ethnic Russian troops from criticism.
    The Kremlin’s ambassador to the Holy See, Alexander Avdeev, told the RIA Novosti agency that he met Monday with a Vatican official to express his “indignation” about Francis’ comments, which were contained in an interview with the Jesuit magazine America that was published Monday.
    In his comments, Francis defended his usual reluctance to call out President Vladimir Putin by name, saying it was clear Ukraine is the “martyred” victim in the war.    But he also said that, while it was the Russian state that invaded Ukraine, “Generally, the cruelest are perhaps those who are of Russia but are not of the Russian tradition, such as the Chechens, the Buryats and so on.”
    The pope’s apparent distinction between the mostly Muslim Chechens and Buddhist Buryats on the one hand, and ethnic Russian fighters on the other, irked Moscow.
    “I expressed indignation at such insinuations and noted that nothing can shake the cohesion and unity of the multinational Russian people,” Avdeev was quoted as saying by RIA Novosti.
    Throughout the nine-month war, Francis has tried to spare direct condemnation of Moscow for fear of antagonizing the Russian Orthodox Church, which has strongly backed Putin’s invasion on religious grounds.    Francis has previously blamed “mercenaries” for the atrocities being committed in Ukraine, drawing criticism from the Kyiv government.
    In the new comments, Francis was clearly trying to draw a line between those who follow “the Russian tradition” and allegedly more brutal Chechens and Buryats, when in fact Russian troops have been accused of war crimes regardless of their ethnicity.
    While it wasn’t entirely clear what Francis meant by people who follow the “Russian tradition,” it could be a reference to the predominantly Russian Orthodox Christian roots of an estimated 68% of the population.
    The RIA report also cited the regional leader of Buryatia, Alexey Tsydenov, as describing the pope’s remarks as “at least strange.”    Buryatia, a Siberian republic which forms part of Russia, is home to indigenous Buryat Mongolians, who were reported to be disproportionally targeted by Moscow’s mobilization efforts alongside other minorities.
    Ramzan Kadyrov, the Kremlin backed leader of predominantly Muslim Chechnya, has been one of the most outspoken supporters of Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine, though fighters from the southern Russian republic have participated on both sides in the war.
    The latest dust-up over Francis’ comments come as the Holy See tries to play a mediating role in the conflict.    Francis and the Vatican secretariat of state have made repeated offers to try to facilitate peace talks, to no avail.

12/1/2022 Ex-Twitter Exec. Admits Hunter Biden Laptop Censorship Was A Mistake by OAN Newsroom
File – Hunter Biden, the son of Joe Biden, is pictured. (Getty Image)     A former high-ranking employee of Twitter has admitted that the Hunter Biden laptop story should not have been censored.
    In an interview this week, Twitter’s Ex-Safety Chief Yoel Roth admitted that it was a mistake to censor the New York Post’s story on the first son.    He claims that the social media company censored the story quickly in October of 2020 due to being unable to verify it.
    This comes after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Roth both confessed that they were approached by the FBI to cover it up prior to the 2020 election.
    In the interview, Roth repeated that he believed the story should have never been blocked.
    Last week, Twitter CEO Elon Musk hinted he might release information on how the company censored the story.

12/3/2022 Media: Snowden receives Russian passport, takes citizenship oath by ASSOCIATED PRESS
A State Department spokesman said that the U.S. was aware of reports Edward Snowden
had finalized his Russian citizenship but could not confirm them. ARMANDO FRANCA/AP FILE     MOSCOW – Former U.S. intelligence contractor Edward Snowden, who fled prosecution after revealing highly classified surveillance programs, has received a Russian passport and taken the citizenship oath, Russian news agencies quoted his lawyer as saying Friday.
    Lawyer Anatoly Kucherena was reported as saying that Snowden got the passport and took the oath on Thursday, about three months after Russian President Vladimir Putin granted him citizenship.
    The reports did not specify whether Snowden has renounced his U.S. citizenship. The United States revoked his passport in 2013, leading to Snowden being stranded in a Moscow airport for weeks after arriving from Hong Kong, aiming to reach Ecuador.
    Russia eventually granted him permanent residency.    He married American Lindsay Mills in 2017 and the couple has two children.
    In Washington, State Department spokesman Ned Price said Friday that the U.S. was aware of reports Snowden had finalized his Russian citizenship but could not confirm them, and referred questions about his status to the Russian government.    However, Price said the Biden administration would not be surprised if the reports were correct.
    “Mr. Snowden has long signaled his allegiance to Russia; this step would only formalize that,” Price told reporters.
    Snowden leaked documents on the National Security Agency’s collection of data passing through the infrastructure of U.S. phone and internet companies.    He also released details about the classified U.S. intelligence budget and the extent of American surveillance on foreign officials, including the leaders of U.S.-allied countries.
    Snowden says he made the disclosures because he believed the U.S. intelligence community had gone too far and infringed on civil liberties.

12/2/2022 Journalist Matt Taibbi Details Twitter Censorship Efforts Of Hunter Biden Laptop Story by OAN Newsroom
FILE PHOTO: File photo of the Twitter logo displayed on a screen on the floor of the NYSE     Twitter is coming under hot water after their efforts to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story was exposed.
    In a series of Twitter posts on Friday, independent journalist Matt Taibbi released what he called “the Twitter files.”    Taibbi said that a cabal of Twitter executives suppressed the story based on the unverified assumption that Hunter Biden’s laptop was hacked.    They would do this by putting warning labels on the post and blocking it from being sent by direct message, actions used to suppress the spreading of child pornography.
    The team would also censor accounts that re-tweeted the story, including the account of President Trump’s Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany
    The former head of Legal Policy and Trust, Vijaya Gadde, allegedly played a major role in the efforts.    The group moved behind the back of Twitter’s founder and CEO Jack Dorsey.    Taibbi also noted that many in the cabal were wary of operating under the ‘hacked laptop’ theory but went along with it anyway.
    The same day the story broke, Twitter began its censorship campaign which caused chatter on Capitol Hill to begin.
    Democrat Ro Kahanna (D-Calif.) emailed Gadde warning that censoring the story could be a violation of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
    “If there is a hack of classified information or other information that could expose a serious war crime and the New York Times was to publish it, I think the New York Times should have that right,” Kahanna said.    “A journalist should not be held accountable for the illegal actions of the source unless they actively aided the hack.    So, to restrict the distribution of that material, especially regarding a presidential candidate, seems not in the keeping of the principles of New York Times v. Sullivan.    I say this as a total Biden partisan and convinced he didn’t do anything wrong.    But the story now was become more about censorship than relatively innocuous emails and it’s become a bigger deal than it would have been.”
    However, other Democrats didn’t seem to hold Kahanna’s sentiment.
    Carl Szabo, the vice president and general counsel for research group NetChoice polled a group of nine Republican and three Democrat congressman.    He found that Democrats were overwhelmingly pushing for more content moderation.
    Szabo also said the notion on Capitol Hill was the suppression story and referred to it as tech’s Access Hollywood moment.
    In the meantime, Taibbi says the hacked laptop theory requires a law enforcement agency to confirm and that verification couldn’t happen in the 24-hours of the scandal.    He stressed that both parties used Twitter’s censorship tools.    However, Democrats were immensely more willing to call for actions against content they didn’t like.    Taibbi said more details are to come regarding the Twitter files, including shadow-banning, boosting, follower accounts and more.
    Additionally, Elon Musk said he’ll hold Q and A on Saturday regarding the data dump.

Comer (R-Ky.) is also seeking details about the administration’s ‘abuse of the strategic oil reserves’ and Biden’s secret deal to lower gas prices with Saudi Arabia on the eve of the midterm elections.
    Although that deal never came to fruition, Comer fired off a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken where he suggested that Biden was acting for political purposes.

12/7/2022 US court dismisses suit against Saudi prince in killing by Ellen Knickmeyer, ASSOCIATED PRESS
People hold posters of slain journalist Jamal Khashoggi near the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in 2020.
A team of Saudi officials killed Khashoggi inside the consulate in 2018. EMRAH GUREL/AP FILE     WASHINGTON – A U.S. federal judge on Tuesday dismissed a lawsuit against Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in the killing of U.S.-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi, bowing to the Biden administration’s insistence that the prince was legally immune in the case.
    District of Columbia U.S. District Judge John D. Bates heeded the U.S. government’s motion to shield Prince Mohammed from the lawsuit despite what Bates called “credible allegations of his involvement in Khashoggi’s murder.”
    Saudi officials killed Khashoggi inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in 2018. Khashoggi, a columnist for The Washington Post, had written critically of the harsh ways of Prince Mohammed, Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler.
    The U.S. intelligence community concluded the Saudi crown prince ordered the operation against Khashoggi.    The killing opened a rift between the Biden administration and Saudi Arabia that the administration has tried in recent months to close, as the U.S. unsuccessfully urged the kingdom to undo oil production cuts in a global market racked by the Ukraine war.
    Khashoggi had entered the Saudi consulate to obtain documents needed for his upcoming marriage. His fiancee, Hatice Cengiz, who had waited unknowingly outside the consulate as he was killed, and a rights group founded by Khashoggi before he died brought the lawsuit.    The lawsuit also named two top aides of the prince as accomplices.
    The Biden administration, invited but not ordered by the judge to offer an opinion on the matter, declared last month that Prince Mohammed’s standing as Saudi Arabia’s prime minister gave him sovereign immunity from the U.S. lawsuit.
    Saudi Arabia’s king, Salman, had named Prince Mohammed, his son, as prime minister weeks earlier.    It was a temporary exemption from the kingdom’s governing code, which makes the king prime minister.
    Khashoggi’s fiancee and his rights group argued the move was a maneuver to shield the prince from the U.S. court.
    Bates expressed “uneasiness” with the circumstances of Prince Mohammed’s new title, and wrote in Tuesday’s order that “there is a strong argument that plaintiffs’ claims against bin Salman and the other defendants are meritorious.”
    But the government’s finding that Prince Mohammed was immune left him no choice but to dismiss the prince as a plaintiff, the judge wrote.    He also dismissed the two other Saudi plaintiffs, saying the U.S. court lacked jurisdiction over them.
    The Biden administration argued longstanding legal precedent on immunity for heads of government from other nations’ courts, in some circumstances, demanded that the prince be shielded as prime minister, regardless of the prince only recently obtaining the title.
    The Biden administration already had spared Prince Mohammed from government penalties in the case, again citing sovereign immunity.

    On Monday, according to the U.S. Attorney’s office for the Central California District, Avenatti was sentenced to 14 years in prison for defrauding his clients and committing tax-fraud.
    The judge said that Avenatti blocked IRS efforts to collect $3 million in taxes from his coffee business. The judge also ordered that he pay $7.6 million of restitution to his clients.
    Avenatti had already pleaded guilty in June to four counts of wire fraud for stealing money from his clients, and one count of obstructing collection of payroll taxes from his Seattle coffee business, which is now defunct.
    After already serving a sentence of five years in prison for extortion and fraud convictions, he will now serve the 14-year sentence after he completes his current sentence, which bring his full time in prison up to 19 years.
    Avenatti became a Democrat media superstar in 2018 after he represented Stormy Daniels.    During his time representing her, he pushed baseless allegations against then-President Donald J. Trump.    He went on to becoming one of Trump’s biggest critics.    Democrats praised his efforts at the time, as he traveled to Iowa and New Hampshire exploring a run for a presidential nomination.

    Fauci was asked whether or not he knows anyone who works at any social media platform.    In response, he said that his daughter used to work at Twitter as a software engineer.
    Additionally, it was revealed that the doctor has had at least three conversations over FaceTime with Mark Zuckerberg about pushing COVID-19 vaccinations.
    The deposition is part of a lawsuit filed by Schmitt and Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry.    Landry is alleging that key Biden players “colluded with and or coerced social media companies to suppress free speech.”

    On Monday, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was specifically pressed on the suppression of news reports in 2020 about the Hunter Biden laptop story.    On Friday, independent journalist Matt Taibbi unveiled the Twitter Files in a lengthy thread.
    “So, look, we see this as an interesting, uh, a coincidence,” Jean-Pierre said.    “If I may, that he would so haphazardly push this distraction, that is, uh, full of old news, if you think about it.”
    In his tweet, Taibbi cited specific moves used by Twitter to suppress certain posts by labeling them as un-safe and blocking users from sharing links to the story through direct messages.    The social media company claimed that those tweets violated its hacking policy.
    The Twitter team would censor accounts that re-tweeted the Hunter story, including the account of President Trump’s Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnaney.
    However, the current press secretary claimed that the release of the Twitter Files was CEO Elon Musk’s attempt draw attention away from itself.
    “At the same time, Twitter is facing very real and very serious questions,” Jean-Pierre said.    “About the rising volume of anger, hate, and antisemitism on their platform.”
    Meanwhile, Republicans such as Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said the big data dump showed that Twitter executives were working directly with the Biden administration.
    “This is Twitter acting as an arm for the Biden campaign,” Senator Cruz explained.    “Look, that’s almost how you task an employee.    Hey, here’s five more to take care of.    Handle these.    Done.”
    Cruz said that the internal communications bombshell is proof that Democrats and big tech are in cahoots.
    This could explain why many other high-profile figures are now coming forward demanding how Twitter may have censored them.
    Whether or not Musk decides to release more Twitter files in the future remains to be seen.

12/8/2022 McConnell snubbed at Jan. 6 event - Officers, family members avoid GOP leadership by Morgan Watkins, Louisville Courier Journal USA TODAY NETWORK
Charles and Gladys Sicknick, parents of slain U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, are greeted by
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer of N.Y., center, with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Ky.,
and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of Calif., at right, Tuesday in Washington. CAROLYN KASTER/AP     Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell got snubbed by law enforcement and the family of a fallen officer Tuesday as the U.S. Capitol and Washington D.C. Metropolitan police departments received Congressional Gold Medals for their service when they responded to the violent insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021.
    Officers and family members of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died the day after he responded to the attack, greeted Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer but bypassed McConnell and his fellow Republican, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, per news reports and a CSPAN video.
    McConnell put his hand out at Tuesday’s ceremony but didn’t receive a handshake.    Later in the ceremony, he gave a brief speech and told law enforcement: “Thank you for having our backs.    Thank you for saving our country.”
    After the insurrection, McConnell and McCarthy voted in ways that helped former President Donald Trump, whose lies that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him are blamed for the violent attempt to overturn President Joe Biden’s victory.    McCarthy, like most House Republicans, voted against impeaching Trump on a charge of inciting the insurrection, and McConnell, like most Senate Republicans, voted to acquit Trump in the ensuing impeachment trial.
    Both Republican leaders also opposed a bipartisan plan for a Jan. 6 commission to investigate the insurrection, with McConnell calling it “House Democrats’ slanted and unbalanced proposal.”
    Unlike McCarthy, McConnell did unequivocally insist Trump bears responsibility for the Capitol attack, saying in February 2021 the expresident is “practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day.”
    That same month, however, he said he would “absolutely” support Trump if the GOP nominates him for president in 2024.
    Gladys Sicknick, Brian Sicknick’s mother, told CNN she didn’t shake hands Tuesday with Mc-Carthy and McConnell because they’re “just two-faced,” while Brian Sicknick’s brother, Ken, told CBS News both Republican officials “have no idea what integrity is.”
    Ken Sicknick said he’s a longtime Republican and praised Wyoming GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, who voted to impeach Trump over Jan. 6 and helped lead the House committee that ultimately investigated the attack.    She lost her 2022 reelection bid.
    When a reporter asked McConnell about the snub at Tuesday’s medal ceremony, the Kentuckian said: “I would respond by saying: Today we gave the Gold Medal to the heroes of Jan. 6.    We admire and respect them.    They laid their lives on the line...”
McConnell criticizes Trump’s suggestion to terminate US Constitution
    McConnell also publicly criticized Trump on Tuesday, this time for the 2024 presidential candidate’s recent suggestion that the U.S. Constitution could be terminated so he can quickly return to the White House, despite Biden’s legitimate election as commander-in-chief.
    “First, let me just say that anyone seeking the presidency who thinks that the Constitution should somehow be suspended or not followed, it seems to me would have a very hard time being sworn in as president of the United States,” McConnell said at a D.C. press conference.
    The president must take an oath to preserve and defend the Constitution.
    McConnell was again asked Tuesday and at a press conference last week if he would support Trump if he’s selected as the GOP’s 2024 nominee, but did not directly answer the question either time.

12/8/2022 Justices skeptical of case on elections - Decision could have major effects on voting by Mark Sherman, ASSOCIATED PRESS
A new elections case is a fresh test for the Supreme Court, which has been
increasingly criticized as having become politicized. ANDREW HARNIK/AP     WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court on Wednesday seemed skeptical of making a broad ruling that would leave state legislatures virtually unchecked in making rules for congressional and presidential elections.
    In nearly three hours of arguments, liberal and conservative justices appeared to take issue with the main thrust of a challenge asking them to essentially eliminate the power of state courts to strike down legislature drawn, gerrymandered congressional district maps on grounds that they violate state constitutions.
    But it was harder to see exactly where the court would land.    In particular, a trio of conservative justices who probably control the outcome, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, indicated they might be open to imposing restraints on state court power in limited circumstances.
    The case has profound potential effects on elections and democracy, and it is also a fresh test for the court that increasingly has been criticized as having become politicized.
    Republicans from North Carolina who brought the case to the high court argue that a provision of the U.S. Constitution known as the elections clause gives state lawmakers virtually total control over the “times, places and manner” of congressional elections, including redistricting.    That means cutting state courts out of the process, they say.
    The Republicans are advancing a concept called the “independent legislature theory,” never adopted by the Supreme Court but previously cited approvingly by four conservative justices.    In the courtroom Wednesday, Justice Elena Kagan, a liberal, branded it “a novel challenge” that “that gets rid of the normal checks and balances.”
    A broad ruling could threaten hundreds of election laws, require separate rules for federal and state elections on the same ballot and lead to new efforts to redraw congressional districts to maximize partisan advantage.
    “This is a theory with big consequences,” Kagan said, that would allow for the “most extreme forms of gerrymandering from legislatures.”    The other liberal justices, Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson, also appeared favorable to the role of state courts in the process.
    David Thompson, the lawyer representing the North Carolina Republicans, said overly partisan redistricting was a problem that the framers of the Constitution thought should be addressed in the political arena, not state or federal courthouses.
    On the other side, lawyers defending the role of state courts told the justices that major changes to elections could result from their decision.
    Fully embracing what Thompson argued for “would wreak havoc in the administration of elections across the nation,” Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar said, representing the Biden administration.    Neal Katyal, representing North Carolina voters and voter advocacy groups, warned of a large “blast radius” from a ruling for the North Carolina Republicans.
    If there seemed a lack of support for the broadest outcome, Roberts on several occasions talked about the tension between federal and state judicial power.
    “So you do accept the proposition that there is a role for this court in particular to assess … how that conflict is worked out in a particular case?” Roberts asked Prelogar.
    Barrett also asked questions suggesting that she believes state courts could go too far in trying to police federal elections in a way that could violate the U.S. Constitution.
    The court’s decision in the North Carolina case also might suggest how the justices would deal with another part of the Constitution – not at issue in the current case – that gives legislatures the authority to decide how presidential electors are appointed.    That provision, the electors clause, was central to efforts to try to overturn the outcome of the 2020 presidential election in several closely contested states.
    The North Carolina state Supreme Court struck down districts drawn by Republicans who control the legislature because they heavily favored Republicans in the highly competitive state.    The court-drawn map used in last month’s elections for Congress produced a 7-7 split between Democrats and Republicans.
    North Carolina is among six states in recent years in which state courts have ruled that overly partisan redistricting for Congress violated their state constitutions.    The others are Florida, Maryland, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
    State courts have become the only legal forum for challenging partisan congressional maps since the Supreme Court ruled in 2019 that those lawsuits cannot be brought in federal court.
    Roberts, writing then for the court and joined by four other conservative justices, noted that state courts remained able to act.    “Provisions in state statutes and state constitutions can provide standards and guidance for state courts to apply,” Roberts wrote, in an opinion joined by Justices Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Clarence Thomas and Kavanaugh.
    But Alito, Gorsuch and Thomas seemed mostly to favor North Carolina’s arguments Wednesday limiting state courts’ authority.
    “What is the source of the authority for the state of North Carolina’s Supreme Court to be involved in a federal election?” Thomas asked.
    Alito suggested that elected state court judges have no role to play in congressional redistricting.
    “So there’s been a lot of talk about the impact of this decision on democracy.    Do you think that it furthers democracy to transfer the political controversy about districting from the legislature to elected supreme courts where the candidates are permitted by state law to campaign on the issue of districting?” he asked.
    Gorsuch said that preserving the North Carolina court ruling might be politically popular because it was aimed at combating partisan linedrawing, but that the same logic might have led in earlier eras to upholding politically odious positions enshrined in state constitutions, including counting enslaved Black people as three-fifths of a person under Virginia’s constitution.
    Donald Verrilli, representing North Carolina in defense of its court ruling, said the Supreme Court should not ignore what he described as rising opposition to partisan gerrymandering.
    “It’s more than whose ox is being gored.    This is a very important issue in this country,” said Verrilli, who previously served as the Obama administration’s top Supreme Court lawyer.

12/8/2022 More Twitter Files Released Show Bias And Censorship by OAN Newsroom

in Toulouse, southern France. (Photo by Lionel BONAVENTURE / AFP) (Photo by LIONEL BONAVENTURE/AFP via Getty Images)     The Twitter Files released Thursday Night highlighted how Twitter blacklists, and how employees chose who and what the platform users were able to see.
    In the second series of Twitter Files released by Journalist Bari Weiss, the investigation revealed that teams of Twitter employees had blacklisted, limited the visibility of certain tweets and users, as well as prevented certain things from trending.    All was done “without informing users.”
    An example given was that of Dr. Jay Bhattacharya from Stanford who argued that COVID lockdowns had negative effects on children.    His account was placed on a blacklist which prevented users from seeing his tweets.    Another was Charlie Kirk, a Conservative activist and Radio Talk Show Host, who had founded Turning Point USA.    He was blacklisted by Twitter employees so that his tweets would not be visible.
    Twitter had denied that it shadow banned accounts, however it was revealed that one Twitter engineer admitted that they controlled visibility “quite a bit” without the public’s knowledge.
    The employees that made these decision were a group of executives which included Head of Legal and Trust Vijaya Gadde, the Global Head of Trust and Safety Yoel Roth, subsequent CEOs Jack Dorsey and Parag Agrawal, among others.
    An account, “libsoftiktok,” made it to those executives and was subsequently suspended six times in 2022 alone.
    The suspensions were upheld because the group claimed that the account encouraged the harassment of certain people, in particular medical providers.
    This was a clear contradiction due to the fact that when the Head of “libsoftiktok” account, Chaya Raichik had taken to Twitter to compare her suspensions against how her personal information was released, Twitter had taken no action.
    The social media platform had deemed that no violations took place.
    More files are set to be released on a future date by Reporter Matt Taibbi.

L: James Baker. (Federal Bureau of Investigation); R: The Federal Bureau of Investigation
Headquarters in Washington on Dec. 7, 2017. (Samira Bouaou/The Epoch Times)     Former top FBI lawyer James Baker was under criminal investigation for leaking to media, Republican lawmakers revealed.    The investigation was still active as recently as Oct. 3, when he was interviewed by Congress.
    During the unclassified, closed-door interview, Baker’s lawyer, Daniel Levin, instructed him to not talk about his contacts with journalists.
    “I’m sorry, I’m going to cut—not let him answer these questions right now.    You may or may not know, he’s been the subject of a leak investigation which is still—a criminal leak investigation that’s still active at the Justice Department.    So I am cutting off … any discussion about conversations with reporters,” Levin said, according to excerpts from a transcript of the interview released in a letter (pdf) by Reps. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Mark Meadows (R-N.C.).
    They addressed the Jan. 15 letter to John Durham, U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, who, according to Levin, handles the investigation of Baker.
    “As we continue our oversight and investigative work, we felt it prudent to write to you seeking an update,” the lawmakers wrote.    “Without being apprised of the contours of your leak investigation and Baker’s role, we run the risk of inadvertently interfering with your prosecutorial plans.”
    The letter refers to the investigation as “ongoing.”    Durham’s office declined to comment.

12/9/2022 Trump Weighs In On Twitter Files Part 2 by OAN Newsroom

January 12, 2021. (Photo by MANDEL NGAN / AFP) (Photo by MANDEL NGAN/AFP via Getty Images)     45th President Donald J. Trump has weighed in on the latest installment of the Twitter Files.
    Trump took to Truth Social on Friday.    There, he said that the Twitter File reports are a revelation showing that the FBI and DOJ illegally colluded in the 2020 election.    He then went on to say what everyone is really waiting to see is Twitter’s thought process in the lead-up to the election and the reason why there was a decision to suspend his account.
    This comes as Bari Weiss released the latest iteration of the files on Thursday.    Weiss gave detailed insight into how the social media platform targeted prominent conservative users.
    The journalist revealed a cabal of executives, including Twitter founder and then CEO Jack Dorsey and FMR General Counsel Vijaya Gadde, placed accounts on the so-called trend blacklist. These executives previously stated no shadow-banning was taking place.
    “Our intent is not to police ideology; our intent is to police behavior that we view as a movement of harassment and I hear your point of view,” Vijaya said.    “It’s something that I will definitely discuss with my team.”
    Twitter called this “visibly filtering” and targeted many accounts including the account of lockdown critic Dr. Jay Bhattacharya and the conservative accounts of Charlie Kirk, Dan Bongino and Libs of TikTok.
    Twitter employees admitted that the company flagged and de-amplified accounts, often targeting high follower accounts that the company alleged were spreading misinformation.    These measures effectively limited exposure of the blacklisted accounts, banning them from the trending page or being included in hashtags.    Moderators kept strike counts for each time these accounts violated the platform’s undisclosed guidelines.    This was done without the account holders’ knowledge.
    Moderators handled 200 cases a day determining which users to limit.    Some officials wanted to expand their shadow banning capacity.    However, certain censorship methods were only reserved for the highest echelon of the social media empire including Gadde, Dorsey, subsequent CEO Parag Agrawal and the Global Head of Trust and Safety, Voel Roth.    This inner circle, dubbed the SIP-PES, would engage in the politically motivated banning of controversial high follower accounts such as Libs of TikTok, even while acknowledging that Libs of Tik Tok had not directly broken Twitter’s hateful conduct code.
    An internal memo claimed the account’s reposting of leftist TikTok’s was insinuating “that gender affirming healthcare is equivalent to child abuse or grooming.”    Meanwhile, moderators found that no guidelines were violated when the account user filed a complaint that pictures of her house and home address were leaked onto the platform. The tweet currently remains accessible to the public.
    Leaked messages show that then CEO Dorsey approved of short-term bans, but Roth wished to expand the policy to combat allegedly harmful misinformation to stem the spread of certain content.
    This comes after former Twitter executive and former FBI lawyer, Jim Baker was fired for vetting the first batch of the Twitter Files behind new CEO Elon Musk’s back.
    In the meantime, Weiss assured that a new installment of the Twitter Files will come from journalist Matt Taibbi.

12/9/2022 Twitter Files Part 3: The Suppression Continues by OAN Newsroom Correspondent Sophia Ariel
The suspended Twitter account of U.S. President Donald Trump appears on an iPhone screen on
January 08, 2021 in San Anselmo, California. (Photo Illustration by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)     The third installment of the Twitter Files was released on Friday.    This time, the files are focusing on why 45th President Donald J. Trump was removed from the social media platform.    This first part of ‘The Removal of Donald Trump’ thread covers October 2020 until January 6th.
    Matt Taibbi announced that while talk of banning Trump from Twitter took place from January 6th until January 8th, the framework which led to his banning, was laid out months prior.    Senior executives were using subjective moderation to choose what they believe did and didn’t violate the company’s policies.
    A slack channel from the company titled “us2020_xfn_enforcement” showed the evolving thinking of top officials in late 2020 until early 2021.    Through this channel, employees would discuss election related removals, especially tweets from high profile accounts.    During this time, executives were liaising with federal enforcement and intelligence agencies about moderation of election related content.
    On posts the company deemed misinformation, Policy Director Nick Pickles was asked by his fellow employee if the company should state that Twitter detects “misinfo” through “ML, human review and partnerships with outside experts?"    In response, Pickles said only the word “partnerships” should be used because he wasn’t sure if the FBI and DHS would be described as experts.
    A post about the Hunter Biden Laptop situation is proof that Yoel Roth, the then Trust and Safety Chief, had weekly meeting with the FBI and the DHS.
    The FBI would regularly send tweets that concerned them to the company.
    While examining the election enforcement Slack, Taibbi was not able to find any references to moderation requests from the Trump campaign, the Trump White House, or Republicans.    He was told that they exist, however they were absent from the channel.
    One instance that started a long conversation in the Slack channel is when former Arizona Governor Mike Huckabee jokingly tweeted that he was filling out ballots for his deceased parents.
    In response to his post, Twitter officials claimed that Huckabee was “literally admitting in a tweet to a crime.”    The group declared Huckabee to be an “edge case.”    However, they ultimately decided to leave him be.    Roth suggested that even in a case such as Huckabee’s, where he was joking, the company needed to re-evaluate on what could be considered as misleading.
    In order to combat the issue of tweets spreading misinformation, the company would put warning labels on tweets they deemed false.
    Twitter was particularly strict on Trump.    In one case, Trump quote tweeted an article about 50,000 Ohio voters who received wrong ballots.    Immediately after the president posted his tweet, Twitter employees were ready to slap a “mail-in voting is safe” warning label on it.    Shortly before adding the label, they realized that the tweet was factually accurate.
    On October 26, 2020, Trump tweeted “Big problems and discrepancies with mail-in ballots all over the USA.    Must have final total on November 3rd.”    Even though senior executives did not find a particular violation in his tweet, they were fast to make sure it could not be “replied to, shared, or liked.”
    There were many instances of pro-Biden tweets that warned Trump “may try to steal the election.”    All of these anti-Trump tweets were approved by senior executives.
    On December 10th, Twitter executives introduced the L3 deamplification tool.    This announcement came while Trump was in the middle of firing off 25 tweets where he was commenting such things as “A coup is taking place in front of our eyes.”    The deamplification was silently used to limit Trump’s outreach.     This tool is important to note, as it was deploying a vast range of visible and invisible tools to rein in Trump’s engagement long before January 6th.     Soon after the tool was put in place, bots were put on the 45th president’s personal Twitter account.    In addition, the presidents account was bounced. When an account is bounced, it means that it is inaccessible for 12 hours.
    Roth denied restricting the president’s account.
    On January 6th, Trump tweeted to his supporters that they should “Go home with love & in peace.”    His tweet did not go over well with the Twitter’s executives.
    Vijaya Gadde, the former Head of Legal, Policy and Trust at Twitter, sent out her first company-wide email that day.    In it, she announced that three of Trump’s tweets had been bounced.    She also stated that his tweets signaled a determination to use legit “violations” as a guide for a possible permanent suspension.
    The second installment of “The Removal of Donald Trump” will continue on Saturday, December 10th. Michael Shellenberger will detail the chaos inside Twitter on January 7th.    The final installment of the series will be revealed by Bari Weiss on Sunday. That thread will reveal the secret internal communications from January 8th, the day Trump was removed from Twitter.

(Photo by Hollie Adams/Getty Images)     Supporters of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange rallied outside of the British Embassy in New York. His supporters demanded an end to his prosecution and to let him go back home to Australia.
    During the rally that occurred this past weekend, Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters spoke out against the repressive globalist elite who erode the freedom of speech and push for wars around the world.    Waters stressed that Assange’s prosecution violates freedom of the press and human rights.
    “Without basic human rights, for all brothers and sisters all over the world, irrespective of their color, religion or nationality, we might as well all be alone,” Waters said.    “That’s why we are standing shoulder to shoulder outside the British Embassy in New York City alongside our brother Julian Assange.”
    Assange’s supporters said that they firmly oppose his pending extradition to the United States.    They believe that the Biden administration must end his shameful persecution.    Currently there is a resurgence of pressure on Biden to drop Assange’s drawn-out trial.
    The Trump administration filed the initial charges against him in April 2019.    The Department of Justice of the Biden administration is still pursuing them.
    Assange is currently in London.    He has been serving a prison sentence there since 2019.

    Reports over the weekend revealed that Biden has communicated with close friends about taking aim at Republicans targeting him.
    The president’s son is said to be working with a team of researchers to help deal with any House probes he may face in the new session of Congress.
    So far, Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris was hired to craft legal and media strategy.
    It is reported that the lawyer thinks the Biden family should take a more aggressive stance against the GOP investigations.    The First Family can remain in the public eye by attending public events like the recent White House State Dinner and public art exhibits.
    In addition, they can sue Conservative media networks as well as some Republicans for defamation regarding information found on the “Laptop from Hell.”
    The White House is devising its own plans to deal with scrutiny over the president’s son, coupled with Morris handing Hunter $2 million to pay the IRS for back taxes.
    That plan would involve Hunter maintaining a low-profile while Democrats attack GOP investigations.

12/12/2022 Twitter Files: The Removal Of Trump, The Final Straw by OAN Newsroom Correspondent Sophia Flores
The suspended Twitter account of U.S. President Donald Trump appears on a laptop screen on
January 08, 2021 in San Anselmo, California. (Photo Illustration by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)     For years, Twitter had resisted calls to have world leaders removed from Twitter.    In 2019, the company aimed to “protect the public’s right to hear from their leaders to hold them to account.”    However, on January 8th, 2021, that all changed.
    On the morning of January 8th, President Donald J. Trump tweeted twice. He had one strike remaining before he had enough violations to be kicked off of the social media platform.
    After the events that occurred on January 6th, many Twitter employees voiced their thoughts on a Trump ban.
    One employee claimed that Trump should not be banned from the platform.    “I deeply understand how censorship can destroy the public conversation.”    In response, the low-level employee was told “it’s important to understand that censorship by a government is very different than censorship of a government.”
    However, many employees thought the opposite.    One commented, “I understand he was our President and that may have been the reason why we were hesitant to do it, but I think come Jan 20th there is absolutely no excuse why his account shouldn’t be suspended for good.”
    The Twitter staff who are assigned to evaluate tweets quickly concluded that Trump had not violated any of Twitter’s policies with the two tweets he sent out the morning of January 8th.
    Anika Navaroli, a Twitter Policy official, agreed that Trump’s tweets from that day were not qualifiable for a strike.    In the election channel group chat, she allowed her fellow employees know what her team’s assessment of the situation was.    What she wrote in the group chat, differs from what she said when she testified in front of the January 6th Committee.
    “For months I had been begging and anticipating and attempting to raise the reality that if not-if we made no intervention into what I saw occurring, people were going to die,” Navaroli said.
    At 7:44 am, Twitter’s safety team agreed that none of the tweets violated Twitter’s terms of service.
    Less than 90 minutes after the executives decided that the tweet did not violate any rules, Twitter’s Head of Legal, Policy, and Trust Vijaya Gadde, asked if the president’s tweet could be “coded incitement to further violence.”    A few minutes later, employees on the “scaled enforcement team” suggested that the president’s tweet may have violated Twitter’s Glorification of Violence Policy if you interpreted the phrase “American Patriots” to refer to the rioters.    Things started to quickly escalate and members of the chat started to view Trump as the leader of a terrorist group.    They said he was comparable to Hitler.
    Two hours later, Twitter executives hosted a 30 minute all staff meeting.    There, Jack Dorsey and Vijaya Gadde answered employees’ questions as to why Trump was still on the platform.
    An hour later, Twitter announced Trump’s permanent suspension “due to the risk of further incitement of violence.”    Many employees were happy with the decision.
    Outside of the United States, Twitter’s decision to ban Trump raised alarms to many world leaders.    French President Emmanuel Macron said that he “didn’t want to live in a democracy where the key decisions” were made by private players.    In addition, German Prime Minister Angela Merkel’s spokesperson called the decision “problematic.”
    Under the new Twitter CEO Elon Musk, Donald Trump’s account was reinstated on November 19th, 2022.

12/14/2022 Biden signs same-sex marriage bill - Historic move protects gay, interracial couples by Joey Garrison and Rebecca Morin, USA TODAY
    WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden signed historic legislation Tuesday protecting same-sex marriages nationally, marking a major milestone in the fight for gay rights that follows a seismic change in the nation’s attitudes.
    At a ceremony on the South Lawn of the White House, Biden signed the Respect for Marriage Act, making it the law that all states recognize same-sex and interracial marriages.    Democratic and Republican lawmakers, LGBTQ advocates and plaintiffs in marriage equality cases were among the thousands in attendance.
    'Today, America takes a vital step toward equality, toward liberty and justice, not just for some, but for everyone,' Biden said.    'Toward creating a nation where decency, dignity, and love are recognized, honored and protected.'
    The new law will protect same-sex marriages if the Supreme Court were to overturn the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges decision, which in 2015 legalized same-sex marriages in the U.S.
    Biden said the new law confers to all married couples the federal protections that come with marriage such as legal recognition as 'next of kin' when a spouse is ill.
    'For most of our nation’s history, we denied interracial couples and same-sex couples from these protections,' the president said.    'We failed to treat them with equal dignity and respect.'
    The push to codify gay and interracial marriage rights in Congress came after Associate Justice Clarence Thomas called on the Supreme Court to 'reconsider' other rights established by the Supreme Court in the wake of its June ruling that Americans no longer have a right to abortion.
    Thomas, in a concurring opinion backing the overturning of Roe v. Wade, singled out opinions that blocked states from banning contraception, sex by same-sex couples and gay marriage.

12/14/2022 Twitter disbands advisory council by Matt O'Brien and Barbara Ortutay, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Twitter has dissolved its Trust and Safety Council, the advisory group formed to address
hate speech, child exploitation and other problems. CONSTANZA HEVIA/AFP VIA GETTY IMAGES     Elon Musk’s Twitter has dissolved its Trust and Safety Council, the advisory group of around 100 independent civil, human rights and other organizations that the company formed in 2016 to address hate speech, child exploitation, suicide, self-harm and other problems on the platform.
    The council had been scheduled to meet with Twitter representatives Monday night.    But Twitter informed the group via email that it was disbanding it shortly before the meeting was to take place, according to multiple members.
    The council members, who provided images of the email from Twitter to The Associated Press, spoke on the condition of anonymity due to fears of retaliation.    The email said Twitter was “reevaluating how best to bring external insights” and the council is “not the best structure to do this.”
    “Our work to make Twitter a safe, informative place will be moving faster and more aggressively than ever before and we will continue to welcome your ideas going forward about how to achieve this goal,” said the email, which was signed “Twitter.”
    The volunteer group provided expertise and guidance on how Twitter could better combat hate, harassment and other harms but didn’t have any decision-making authority and didn’t review specific content disputes.    Shortly after buying Twitter for $44 billion in late October, Musk said he would form a new “content moderation council” to help make major decisions but later changed his mind.
    “Twitter’s Trust and Safety Council was a group of volunteers who over many years gave up their time when consulted by Twitter staff to offer advice on a wide range of online harms and safety issues,” tweeted council member Alex Holmes.    “At no point was it a governing body or decision making.”
    Twitter, which is based in San Francisco, had confirmed the meeting with the council Thursday in an email in which it promised an “open conversation and Q& A” with Twitter staff, including the new head of trust and safety, Ella Irwin.
    That came on the same day that three council members announced they were resigning in a public statement posted on Twitter that said that “contrary to claims by Elon Musk, the safety and wellbeing of Twitter’s users are on the decline.”
    Those former council members soon became the target of online attacks after Musk amplified criticism of them and Twitter’s past leadership for allegedly not doing enough to stop child sexual exploitation on the platform.
    A growing number of attacks on the council led to concerns from some remaining members who sent an email to Twitter earlier on Monday demanding the company stop misrepresenting the council’s role.    Those false accusations by Twitter leaders were “endangering current and former Council members,” the email said.
    The Trust and Safety Council, in fact, had as one of its advisory groups one that focused on child exploitation.    This included the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, the Rati Foundation and YAKIN, or Youth Adult Survivors & Kin in Need.

on the U.S. Capitol holds a hearing. The committee will hold its final meeting Monday. J. SCOTT APPLEWHITE/AP FILE     WASHINGTON – The House committee investigating the Capitol riot will hold its final meeting Monday, wrapping up its year-and-a-half-long inquiry by asking the Justice Department to investigate potential crimes.
    The committee of seven Democrats and two Republicans has interviewed more than 1,000 witnesses, held nearly a dozen hearings and collected millions of documents as it worked to create the most comprehensive record of the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021.    The chairman, Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., has said the committee will make criminal referrals to the Justice Department recommending prosecution, but has not disclosed who the targets would be or whether former President Donald Trump would be among them.    The committee has focused squarely on Trump and efforts by then president in the weeks before the attack to overturn his 2020 election loss to Democrat Joe Biden.
    It would fall to federal prosecutors to decide whether to pursue any referrals for prosecution.    Lawmakers have suggested charges against Trump could include conspiracy to defraud the United States and obstruction of an official proceeding of Congress.     Recommendations by the committee would add to the political pressure on the Justice Department as it investigates Trump’s actions.
    The committee on Wednesday is expected to release its final report, which could include hundreds of pages of findings about the attack and Trump’s efforts to subvert democracy.    Committee members will review the highlights of their findings at the Monday meeting.
    Attorney General Merrick Garland last month appointed a special counsel, Jack Smith, to oversee investigations related to Trump, including one focused on the insurrection and attempts to overturn the 2020 election results.
    Thompson said this week that the committee could also approve other types of referrals, including for ethics violations, legal misconduct and campaign finance violations.
    “Different strokes for different folks,” Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., a member of the committee, recently told The Associated Press.    “Everybody has made his or her own bed in terms of their conduct or misconduct.”
    Recommendations on referrals were drafted by four lawyers on the committee: Raskin; Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, the Republican vice chair; and Reps. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., and Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.    They were tasked with presenting the larger group with their referral recommendations.

Kennedy was assassinated, in Dallas, Texas November 22, 1963. Walt Cisco/Dallas Morning News/Handout/File Photo via REUTERS     The Biden administration has released around 13,000 records relating to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
    “Pursuant to my direction, agencies have undertaken a comprehensive effort to review the full set of almost 16,000 records that had previously been released in redacted form and determined that more than 70 percent of those records may now be released in full,” Biden said.    “This significant disclosure reflects my Administration’s commitment to transparency and will provide the American public with greater insight and understanding of the Government’s investigation into this tragic event in American history.”
    According to the National Archives, 98% of all of the documents relating to the 1963 assassination have now been made public, with 3% of the sensitive records still being kept under wraps.    Many of the documents released on Thursday discussed Oswald’s contacts and movements belonging to Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
    A nonprofit organization called the Mary Ferrell Foundation, which manages an online repository of assassination-related materials, filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration in October.    They claimed that the administration failed to meet the deadline for disclosure of all information in 2017.
    Rex Bradford, the president of the Foundation called Thursday’s records release “half a loaf” which required more transparency and clarity.
    According to Biden’s order, government agencies and the National Archives have until May 1, 2023, to propose recommendations about what should be considered private.    After that, “any information withheld from public discourse that agencies do not recommend for continued postponement” will be released before June 30, 2023.
    46-year-old Kennedy died after being shot twice while riding on his motorcade through Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963.    Many people believed that Lee Harvey Oswald, a former Marine and communist activist living in the Soviet Union, killed the president.    At the time, Chief Justice Earl Warren stated that Kennedy was killed solely by Oswald.    For 60 years, Warren’s decision has been widely criticized by academics and historians.
    Many have speculated that there is more to the story about the president and his killer. John F. Kennedy’s death is considered a national tragedy.

(Photo by Patrick Pleul / POOL / AFP) (Photo by PATRICK PLEUL/POOL/AFP via Getty Images)     Elon Musk is receiving backlash from both sides of the Atlantic after Twitter suspended the accounts of several prominent journalists from the New York Times, CNN, Washington Post, and other popular liberal commentators.    The company claimed that the accounts were “manually reviewed.”
    This comes as part of Musk’s attempt to crack down on the sharing of the whereabouts of his private jet.
    On Wednesday, a stalker pursued a vehicle carrying Musk’s son.    The man climbed onto the hood of the car.    At the time, the man was unaware that Musk was not in the vehicle.    This act enraged the Twitter CEO. Due to this incident, later in the day the account of Jack Sweeney was suspended.    The 20-year-old University of Central Florida college student is in charge of the account @ElonJet.    The Twitter account that tracks Musk’s flight trajectories and posts the information for the public to see.
    “Criticizing me all day long is totally fine, but doxxing my real-time location and endangering my family is not,” Musk tweeted.
    The Twitter CEO claimed that his new “doxxing” policy had been broken by the suspended accounts and that they revealed what he claims to be “assassination coordinates” on him.
    Many accounts have voiced criticism of the Head of Trust and Safety’s content moderation decisions.    One of the most vocal public figures who is commenting on the issue is Senator Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.)
    Musk brushed the criticism, by simply responding, “You first.”
    Democrats are complaining that Musk’s failure comes as a contradiction to his claimed commitment to free speech that he made when he purchased the social media platform.    Some of the consequences of Musk’s recent actions include his flagship company Tesla’s stock hitting a new two-year low.

    Twitter had constant contact with the FBI.    Between January 2020 and November 2022, over 150 emails were exchanged between the FBI and former Twitter Trust and Safety Chief Yoel Roth.    Not all emails were secretive, however, some emails included requests for information into Twitter users who were a part of active investigations.    A large amount of the emails between the two parties were requests by the FBI for Twitter to take action on election misinformation and accounts they deemed were spreading misinformation.
    There appeared to be little to no push back from moderators. All of the data was freely shared with the executive branch.
    The platform was also complicit in spreading propaganda for the Department of Homeland Security, such as the debunked Russia collusion hoax.
    Meanwhile, moderators were asked to “fill in the blanks” to target so-called domestic terrorists.
    Even state governments, such as California, flagged content for moderators to review.
    Taibbi concluded that the deep state is an intertwining network of government agencies, contractors and private companies who are intent on controlling the flow of information.

(Photo by Drew Angerer/Getty Images)     The annual Orthodox Jewish gathering of the Torah Umesorah was a part of the President’s Conference held at Trump National Doral golf resort on Friday.    After giving remarks, former President Donald Trump denounced Nick Fuentes and his views.
    During an exclusive interview with Breitbart News, Trump was asked whether Fuentes and his views have “any place in the GOP or the America First movement.”    Trump responded with, “No, they don’t.”
    Trump also made it clear that he was unaware that West had lately made a number of anti-semitic remarks until after the dinner. In his criticism of the media’s coverage, the former president also said that they should not “have made “a big deal” of it.
    The 45th president faced backlash after he hosted a dinner with rapper Kanye West at his Mar-a-Lago estate, days before Thanksgiving last month.    Kanye West had brought Nick Fuentes, Milo Yiannopoulos and former Trump aide Karen Giorno to the dinner.
    Following the dinner, the former president issued a statement clarifying that he did know Fuentes and that he only hosted the dinner at the request of West.
    “Very importantly, I didn’t know him [meaning Fuentes] and I never heard of him. Kanye—I knew Kanye.    Kanye was very nice to me and very respectful of me,” Trump said.    “So Kanye called, and he needed some help and advice.    I agreed to that. He brought a group of people along.    Then, I only heard a day or two after that he had said some very negative anti-Semitic remarks.    But he didn’t say anything negative at all about anything in terms of anti-semitic during that dinner.    The fake news media made a big deal over something, and they shouldn’t have done that.”
    When asked again if Fuentes’s views and any anti-Semitism, Holocaust denialism, or racism have any place within the GOP or the America First movement, to which the former president explicitly stated that they do not.
    “No, they don’t.    Nobody does that has the wrong and ill will about people,” he said.    “We don’t want ill will.    But again, it was very unfairly covered.    It was very, very unfairly covered.”
    Donald Trump officially announced his bid for the 2024 presidential election on November 15th, already established his plan on free speech should he be re-elected.

12/18/2022 Biden delivering on what Trump promised - Aides quick to say that president is fulfilling his campaign agenda by Josh Boak, ASSOCIATED PRESS
One of Joe Biden’s first moves as president was to provide $1,400 in direct payments
to Americans as part of his coronavirus relief package. Susan Walsh/AP     WASHINGTON – Donald Trump pledged to fix U.S. infrastructure as president.    He vowed to take on China and bulk up American manufacturing.    He said he would reduce the budget deficit and make the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes.
    Yet after two years as president, it’s Joe Biden who is acting on those promises.    He jokes that he’s created an 'infrastructure decade' after Trump merely managed a near parody of 'infrastructure weeks.'    His legislative victories are not winning him votes from Trump loyalists or boosting his overall approval ratings.    But they reflect a major pivot in how the government interacts with the economy at a time when many Americans fear a recession and broader national decline.
    Gone are blanket tax cuts.    No more unfettered faith in free trade with non-democracies.    The Biden White House has committed more than $1.7trillion to the belief that a mix of government aid, focused policies and bureaucratic expertise can deliver long-term growth that lifts up the middle class.    This reverses the past administration’s view that cutting regulations and taxes boosted investments by businesses that flowed downward to workers.
    With new laws in place, Biden is taking the gamble that the federal bureaucracy can successfully implement and deliver on his promises, including after he leaves office.
    That is a tricky spot, as Trump himself learned that global crises such as a pandemic can quickly ruin the foundations of an economic agenda, causing businesses and voters to shift priorities.    There are few guarantees that the economy behaves over 10 years as government forecasts expect, while Biden’s policies will likely be challenged by the new Republican majority in the House.
    Biden and his team say Americans are already seeing the upside with announcements for new computer chip plants and some 6,000 infrastructure projects under way.
    'There’s an industrial strategy that actually uses public investments to drive more private capital and more innovation in the historical tradition of everybody from Alexander Hamilton to Abraham Lincoln to John F. Kennedy,' said Brian Deese, director of the White House National Economic Council.    'The outcomes speak for themselves.'
    Trump’s supporters see little overlap with Biden, even though the funding for infrastructure, computer chip production and scientific research was passed along bipartisan lines.
    'The Biden administration agenda is 180 degrees different,' said James Carter, a policy director at the America First Policy Institute.    'More regulation, higher taxes, no border control and a war on fossil fuels.    It’s two different administrations with two different approaches.    One is free market, the other is big government.'
    The current and former president seem almost bound together in the public arena. On the August eve of Biden signing into law $280 billion for semiconductors and research, FBI agents raided Trump’s home to retrieve classified documents, overshadowing the White House event.    Similarly, Biden called out Trump as a threat to democracy ahead of November midterm elections, while Republicans campaigned by hammering the president for troubling levels of inflation.
    Biden aides are quick to say that the president is fulfilling his own campaign promises, rather than honoring pledges made by Trump.    But one of Biden’s first moves as president in 2021 was to provide $1,400 in direct payments to Americans as part of his coronavirus relief package.    Along with the $600 in payments in a pre-Biden relief package, the sum matched the $2,000 that Trump called for in the twilight of his presidency, though he could not get it through Congress.
    'I would want to avoid the premise that somehow what Joe Biden has done was take Donald Trump’s ideas and enact them into law,' Deese said.    'What President Biden has done is taken the campaign agenda that he campaigned on and actually delivered on it.'
    For all of that, Americans are giving Biden low marks on the economy.    Inflation has come down from a 40-year peak this summer, but consumer prices are still 7.1% higher from a year ago.    The Federal Reserve is raising its benchmark interest rate to lower inflation, something that its own projections show will cause unemployment to rise in the next year.
    Three in four Americans describe the economy as poor, with nearly the same percentage saying the U.S. is on the wrong track, according to a new poll by The Associated Press and NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
    Biden is asking for patience.
    'I know it’s been a rough few years for hardworking Americans and for small businesses as well,' Biden said in Tuesday remarks about inflation.    'But there are bright spots all across America where we’re beginning to see the impact of our economic strategy, and we’re just getting started.'
    Trump supporters blame Biden’s separate $1.9trillion in coronavirus relief for sparking the inflation, although it contained roughly $400 billion worth of the direct payments that former president said Americans should receive.
    They argue that the U.S. economy would be stronger if Biden took steps such as allowing all businesses to fully expense their investments in new equipment, instead of providing targeted support to the technology and clean energy sectors.
    But even excluding the recession induced by the pandemic, Trump’s economic record was far from sterling as the promised growth never materialized.    Manufacturers began to slash jobs in 2019 before the coronavirus spread, instead of the steady resurgence promised by Trump. Annual budget deficits worsened under Trump, but they have improved under Biden as pandemic aid has wound down.
    Biden is telling Americans that his policies will strengthen the U.S. economy over the next decade.    His $52 billion for computer chip production has led to a series of factory groundbreakings in Arizona, Idaho, New York, North Carolina, Ohio and Texas that will take years to complete.    The idea is that government aid reduces risk and makes it easier for these companies to invest in areas where global demand exceed available supplies.

12/18/2022 Committee considers 3 charges for Trump by Farnoush Amiri, Mary Clare Jalonick and Michael Balsamo ASSOCIATED PRESS
The House panel investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol is considering a recommendation
of criminal charges against former President Donald J. Trump, including insurrection, obstruction
of an official proceeding and conspiracy to defraud the U.S. Rebecca Blackwell/AP file     WASHINGTON – The House panel investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol is considering recommending the Justice Department pursue an unprecedented criminal charge of insurrection and two other counts against former President Donald Trump.
    Besides insurrection, an uprising aiming to overthrow the government, the panel is also considering recommending prosecutors pursue charges for obstructing an official proceeding and conspiracy to defraud the United States, according to a person familiar with the matter who could not publicly discuss the private deliberations and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.    The committee’s deliberations were continuing late Friday, and no decisions were formalized on which specific charges the committee would refer to the Justice Department.
    The panel is to meet publicly Monday afternoon when any recommendation will be made public.
    A second person familiar with the deliberations, who also could not publicly discuss details of the private deliberations, confirmed the committee was considering three charges.    The panel’s lawyers argued, according to that person, that those three criminal statutes were the strongest cases to make.
    The decision to issue referrals is not unexpected. Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., the vice chair of the committee, has for months been hinting at sending the Justice Department criminal referrals based on the extensive evidence the nine-member panel has gathered since it was formed in July 2021.
    'You may not send an armed mob to the Capitol; you may not sit for 187 minutes and refuse to stop the attack while it’s underway.    You may not send out a tweet that incites further violence,' Cheney said about Trump on NBC’s 'Meet the Press' in October.    'So we’ve been very clear about a number of different criminal offenses that are likely at issue here.'

12/18/2022 US to buy 3M barrels to restock oil supply by Matthew Daly, ASSOCIATED PRESS
    WASHINGTON – The Biden administration said Friday it is buying 3 million barrels of oil to begin to replenish U.S. strategic reserves that officials drained earlier this year in a bid to stop gasoline prices from rising amid production cuts by OPEC and a ban on Russian oil imports.
    President Joe Biden withdrew 180 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve starting in March, bringing the stockpile to its lowest level since the 1980s.    The purchase, to begin in January, will start to replenish the reserve and is likely to be followed by additional purchases, officials said.
    The Energy Department called the purchase “a good deal for American taxpayers” since the price will be lower than the $96 per barrel average the U.S. oil was sold for.    The replenishment also will strengthen U.S. energy security, the department said in a statement.
    The purchase price was not announced, but benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude oil was selling at $74.50 per barrel late Friday.
    Gasoline prices, meanwhile, averaged about $3.18 per gallon on Friday, down from $3.74 a month ago and just over $5 per gallon at their peak in June, according to the AAA auto club.
    Tapping the reserve is among the few things a president can do by himself to try to control the inflation that makes Americans poorer and often creates a political liability for the party in control of the White House.

12/19/2022 Vatican defrocks anti-abortion priest by Nicole Winfield, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Frank Pavone, head of Priests for Life, had been investigated by his then-diocese of Amarillo, Texas, for having placed an aborted fetus
on an altar and posting a video of it on two social media sites in 2016. GREG KAHN/ NAPLES DAILY NEWS VIA AP, FILE     VATICAN CITY – The Vatican has defrocked an anti-abortion U.S. priest, Frank Pavone, for what it said were “blasphemous communications on social media” as well as “persistent disobedience” of his bishop.
    A letter to U.S. bishops from the Vatican ambassador to the U.S., Archbishop Christophe Pierre, obtained Sunday, said the decision against Pavone, who heads the anti-abortion group Priests for Life, had been taken Nov. 9, and that there was no chance for an appeal.
    Pavone had been investigated by his then-diocese of Amarillo, Texas, for having placed an aborted fetus on an altar and posting a video of it on two social media sites in 2016.    He posts frequently about U.S. politics and abortion, and the video of the aborted fetus was accompanied by a post saying that Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party platform would allow abortion to continue and that Donald Trump and the Republican platform want to protect unborn children.
    Pavone remains a firm supporter of Trump: His Twitter handle features him wearing a “MAGA” hat with a background photo featuring the former U.S. president, whom many conservatives praise for his Supreme Court nominees who overturned the landmark decision guaranteeing a constitutional right to abortion in the United States.
    In a tweet Sunday, Pavone sounded defiant, comparing his fate to that of the unborn.
    “So, in every profession, including the priesthood, if you defend the #unborn, you will be treated like them!"    The only difference is that when we are “aborted,” we continue to "speak, loud and clear.”
    His supporters immediately denounced the measure, including the bishop of Tyler, Texas, Joseph Strickland, who referred to President Joe Biden’s support for abortion rights as “evil.”
    “The blasphemy is that this holy priest is canceled while an evil president promotes the denial of truth & the murder of the unborn at every turn, Vatican officials promote immorality & denial of the deposit of faith & priests promote gender confusion devastating lives…evil,” Strickland tweeted.
    Pavone had appealed to the Vatican over restrictions placed on his ministry in 2011 by the Amarillo bishop, succeeded in getting the restrictions eased, and relocated away from Texas while remaining active with Priests for Life.
    In his letter, Pierre cited information from the Congregation for Clergy that Pavone had been laicized – he can no longer present himself as a priest – after being found guilty in a canonical proceeding “of blasphemous communications on social media and of persistent disobedience of the lawful instructions of his diocesan bishop.”    The letter was first reported by Catholic News Agency.
    The statement said Pavone was given “ample opportunity to defend himself” as well as to submit to his bishop.    “It was determined that Father Pavone had no reasonable justification for his actions.”

12/20/2022 What’s likely to happen in China?
People light candles and leave cigarettes at a memorial during a protest
against China’s strict COVID-19 measures Nov. 27 in Beijing. Getty Images     One model predicts China will see 100 million symptomatic cases, 5 million hospital admissions and up to 1.6 million deaths, just from COVID-19, not counting the strain on the health system that will lead to even more tragedies, said Jennifer Bouey, a RAND epidemiologist.
    She said there are not enough intensive care units in the country to handle this level of demand and she expects the health care system will be overwhelmed.    Blood banks are already seeing a shortage of donations, she said.
    If mainland China were to see the same death rate as Hong Kong did during an outbreak in February and March, more than 2 million Chinese people would be predicted to die in the coming months, said William Hanage, an epidemiologist at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, on the call with Luban.
    Why is China so vulnerable to COVID-19 right now?
    Natural immunity: Because of the zero-COVID-19 policy, few Chinese people have been infected so they lack natural immune protection, Bouey said.
    Vaccine protection has waned: About 90% of the Chinese population got a first round of vaccinations but far fewer received boosters and most of those shots were more than six months ago, she said.
    Lack of trust: Early in the pandemic, there were some scandals where patients were given fake or adulterated COVID-19 vaccines, reducing public faith in them, said Timothy Heath, a senior international defense researcher at RAND.
    Vaccine misconceptions: The government also prioritized vaccinating young, healthy people, which fostered a public belief that the vaccine could be dangerous for older people.
‘A very hard road ahead’
    Following public protests, the Chinese government lifted its zero-COVID-19 restrictions Dec. 1.
    Bouey said she’s seen little evidence that the Chinese government was prepared to suddenly lift its restrictions.    A booster campaign this summer would have made a big difference, along with a substantial pre-purchase of antiviral treatments.
    'We see the government just starting the last couple of days talking about boosters and antivirals,' she said.
    Heath said reversing course now 'will further fuel distrust and skepticism among the Chinese people who are not sure how much truth the government is really telling.'
    Both he and Bouey said they don’t think the government is accurately reporting COVID-19 cases.    Official reports say infections are falling, while empty shops, shortages and hospital lines tell a different story.
    Still, Hanage predicts China will have fewer deaths per capita than the U.S. because it delayed its outbreak until after vaccines arrived.    'China has a very, very hard road ahead of it in the coming months, but in the absence of vaccination, it would be much, much worse.'

COVID-19 is about to explode in China by Karen Weintraub, USA TODAY
    China lifts zero-COVID policy.    How will the US be affecte?
    Any time a virus rages out of control, especially in a population as large as China’s, there is a good chance that new variants will develop, said Dr. Jeremy Luban at the UMass Chan Medical School.
    The variants in China seem to be the ones that have been most prevalent here, including the omicron subvariants BA.5 and BQ.1.
    'There’s no specific reason to be concerned other than that a lot of infections are bad for evolution of new things that we can’t predict,' Luban said.    'The more the rate of infection can be controlled in China, the better.'
    The U.S. monitors for infections and variants among travelers, said Dr. Ashish Jha, White House coronavirus response coordinator.
    'If new variants emerge, I’m confident we’ll be able to address them,' he said.
    China is likely to see an explosion of COVID-19 cases in coming weeks, experts say, as the country lifts its long-standing and highly unpopular zero-COVID-19 policy.
    China is vulnerable right now because its population – especially older adults – is under vaccinated, has no natural immunity and a limited supply of treatments.
    Experts predict hundreds of millions of infections and as many as 1.5 million to 2 million deaths.
    'I think China is going to blow in the next six to 12 weeks,' said Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, in a Thursday webinar.    'Instead of falling off a 5-foot cliff, we’re going to watch them fall off a 1,000-foot cliff.'
    An epidemic in China could be bad news for controlling the virus in the U.S., he and other experts said, because travelers will arrive sick and the chances of mutationrise when a virus infects a lot of people.

12/19/2022 Twitter Files Part 7: The FBI & The Laptop by OAN Correspondent Sophia Flores

White House in Washington, DC, July 7, 2022. (Photo by SAUL LOEB / AFP) (Photo by SAUL LOEB/AFP via Getty Images)     This edition of the Twitter Files focuses on how the FBI and the intelligence community discredited factual information about Hunter Biden before and after the contents of his laptop was released.
    The laptop first came to light in December 2019 after a Delaware computer store owner reached out to the FBI about a laptop that Hunter Biden had left.    That same month, the FBI issued a subpoena for the said laptop.
    In August of 2020, Mac Isaac, the computer store owner, was concerned that he had not heard from the FBI considering that he discovered criminal activity on the laptop.    The owner, then went on to email Rudy Giuliani about the computer, who then gave the story to the New York Post.    Little to his knowledge, Giuliani was under FBI surveillance at the time.
    The day before the story was published, Hunter Biden’s lawyer reached out to Isaac.
    That night, FBI Special Agent Elvis Chan sent 10 documents to Twitter’s then-Head of Site Integrity, Yoel Roth, through a one-way communications channel from the FBI to Twitter.
    The story was officially published on October 14, 2020. It revealed the business dealing of the president’s son and included some personal photos.    Within a few hours of the article being published, Twitter and other social media companies censored the story almost immediately.
    The FBI and other law enforcement agencies told Yoel Roth and the Heads at other social media platforms that they should dismiss anything related to reports of a “Hunter Biden laptop.”    They claimed that the story was part of a Russian “hack-and-leak” operation.
    The so-called Russian “hack-and-leak,” was false as Twitter executives repeatedly reported little Russian activity.
    Roth pushed back against the FBI and their efforts to share data outside of the usual search warrant process.
    It’s important to note that in September 2020, Roth participated in a Aspen Institute “tabletop exercise” on a potential “hack-and-dump” operation relating to Hunter Biden.    The goal of the operative, was to shape how the media covered that story and how social media carried it.

    In July 2020, the FBI arranged for temporary Top Secret security clearance for Twitter’s executives so that the FBI can share information about upcoming election threats.    The FBI shared information about the Russian hacking group APT28 to the executives prior to the Hunter laptop story being released.    This prior knowledge about the hacking group, mixed with the warnings of Russian propaganda (interfering with the election), led Roth to believe that APT28 was responsible for “leaking” the laptop story.
    In 2020, there was a notable amount of former FBI employees working at Twitter.    All of those employees had a private Slack channel where they would share crib sheets to onboard new FBI arrivals.    Roth and Chan, soon set up an encrypted messaging network so that employees from the FBI and Twitter could communicate.
    When the article was published on October 14th, Roth said that the story, “it isn’t clearly violative of our Hacked Materials Policy, nor is it clearly in violation of anything else,” but adds, that “this feels a lot like a somewhat subtle leak operation.”    In response, Jim Baker, the former General Counsel of the FBI, insisted that the story was not legitimate.
    Many meetings were held that day in order to preform damage control. Outside influences persuaded Twitter executives that the Hunter Biden laptop did not come from a whistleblower.    They also falsely suggested that Giuliani’s leak of the laptop had something to do with Russia.

    After a years-long court fight, two weeks before the Republicans takeover the House of Representatives, the Ways and Means Committee is due to vote on the issue behind closed doors to determine whether or not the details will be released.
    This comes a day after the House investigation of the January 6th surge on the Capitol urged the Justice Department to charge Trump with obstruction and insurrection for his supposed role in sparking the riot.
    Although presidential hopefuls are not required by any law to release their tax returns, in recent history, candidates from both parties have voluntarily done so.    The former president, unlike his predecessors, refused to make his tax returns public when asked in 2019, instead wishing to keep the details of his fortune and his business activities confidential.
    Although Trump’s tax returns are still under confidentiality restrictions, the committee has the option to make some details public.
    Democrats claimed that they need the records to determine whether the Internal Revenue Service is properly auditing the presidential tax returns.
    Releasing the financial details will most likely lead to more unwelcome scrutiny for the former president as he prepares for another presidential run in 2024.
    Many are pushing against this action saying that if his details were to be released, then taxpayer privacy would be changed and lessened going forward.

12/20/2022 Twitter Files Part 8: The Pentagon’s Secret Accounts by OAN Newsroom Correspondent Roy Francis

briefing room of Pentagon in Arlington, VA. (Photo by Alex Wong/Getty Images)     In this edition of Twitter Files, Lee Fang talks about how despite Twitter promised to shut down covert state-run propaganda networks, the platform quietly aided the Pentagon’s online PsyOp Campaign.
    Twitter has claimed for years that they have procedures set in place to detect and thwart government-backed platform manipulation, even testifying in front of Congress about their pledge to rapidly identify and shut down all state-backed operations and propaganda.
    Behind the scenes, however, Twitter cooperated and even gave the U.S. military’s Online Psychological Influence Operations special protection and approval.    Despite knowing that the Pentagon had propaganda accounts that used covert identities, Twitter did not suspend many for over two years, with some never being suspended.
    A U.S. Central Command official (CENTCOM) sent Twitter a list of 52 Arab language accounts in 2017.    The accounts were used to “amplify certain messages” and asked for verification for an account and “whitelist” ability for the others, marking six accounts as the priority.    That same day Twitter officials granted those accounts the “whitelist” tag, essentially making them verified accounts without the blue check mark.
    These accounts tweeted frequently about the U.S. military priorities in the Middle East.    This included anti-Iran messages, promotion of the Saudi Arabia-U.S. backed war in Yemen, and U.S. drone strikes in the region.
    CENTCOM then decided to cut ties with the accounts, changing the bios and using deep-fake profile pictures.    One of the accounts’ bios was changed to read “Euphrates pulse.”
    This was known to the high-level Twitter executives.    The emails showed their knowledge of the accounts and actions, but refused to suspend the accounts.    Twitter lawyer Jim Backer even jokingly sent emails regarding the accounts with one stating that the Pentagon used “poor tradecraft” in setting up its network.
    Stacia Cardille, another Twitter attorney had replied by saying that the Pentagon wanted a Sensitive Compartmented information Facility (SCIF) for this information and may want to reclassify its social media activities and accounts in order to “avoid embarrassment.”
    In 2020, several high-level Twitter executives and lawyers shared another list of undisclosed accounts that the Pentagon had been using.    A total of 157 accounts were on that list, most of which was focused on Middle East military issues.
    Also in 2020, in an email sent by Twitter’s Lisa Roman to the Department of Defense, she acknowledged a list of accounts that the DoD had previously provided and added another list that Twitter had detected.    The accounts were tweeting in Russian and Arabic about Middle East military issues, especially in Syria with regards to ISIS.
    Many of these were found out to be secret U.S. military propaganda accounts that continued to operate on the platform until May 2022 even longer, even though they were detected in 2020 and some potentially earlier.
    In August 2022, a Stanford Internet Observatory report uncovered a U.S. military covert propaganda network that operated on Facebook, Telegram, Twitter and other platforms using fake news portals, and deep fake images.    This network was used against U.S. foreign adversaries especially targeting Russia, Iran, and China.
    This network accused Iran of “threatening Iraq’s water security and flooding the country with crystal meth” and harvesting the organs from Afghan refugees.    One of the accounts that was identified in this network was an account that CENTCOM has asked for a whitelist tag back in 2017.    The account used a deep fake for its profile image.
    Twitter was cast as an unbiased hero at the time for removing this network, with the media backing Twitter’s narrative that it was applying its policies evenly and being proactive in suspending the DoD network.
    In reality twitter had known about the fake accounts since 2017 and knew that they were in violation of the platform’s policies, they even assisted CENTCOM with their request to whitelist and prioritize the accounts that they had created.    They waited minimum of three years before they decided to act and suspend some of the accounts, with some even remaining online with no actions against them.
    Twitter officials were in constant contact with the Washington Post when the story was about to break.    so when the public found out, Twitter employees celebrated because the article did not mention them or their part in the scandal but focused solely on the Pentagon.
    Their actions stood in complete contrast of Twitter policies and all the actions they claim to have taken in order to maintain a fair and equal standard on the platform.

12/21/2022 How Congress is changing electoral law - Legislation crafted as response to insurrection by Mary Clare Jalonick, ASSOCIATED PRESS
The House and the Senate are set to pass an overhaul of the Electoral Count Act, the arcane election law
that then-President Donald Trump tried to subvert after his 2020 election defeat. MATT ROURKE/AP FILE     WASHINGTON – In one of the last acts of the Democratic-led Congress, the House and the Senate are set to pass an overhaul of the Electoral Count Act, the arcane election law that then-President Donald Trump tried to subvert after his 2020 election defeat.
    The legislation, which Democrats and Republicans have been working on since the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol, is the most significant policy response so far to the attack and Trump’s aggressive efforts to upend the popular vote.
    Led by Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine and Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, along with members of the House Jan. 6 panel, the bipartisan legislation was added to a massive year-end spending bill that was unveiled early Tuesday and will be voted on this week.
    The bill would amend the 19th century law that governs, along with the U.S. Constitution, how states and Congress certify electors and declare presidential election winners, ensuring that the popular vote from each state is protected from manipulation and that Congress does not arbitrarily decide presidential elections when it meets to count the votes every four years.
    Supporters in both chambers – Democrats and some Republicans – have pushed to pass an overhaul before the start of the next Congress and ahead of the 2024 presidential campaign cycle, as Trump has announced that he is running again.    More than a dozen GOP senators have publicly backed the legislation, including Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
    “We are now one step closer to protecting our democracy and preventing another January 6th,” said Senate Rules Committee Chairwoman Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., who moved the bill through her committee.
A look at what the bill would do: Clarify the vice president’s role
    Lawmakers and legal experts have long said the 1887 law is vague and vulnerable to abuse, and Democrats saw Trump’s efforts to overturn his defeat ahead of Jan. 6, 2021, as a final straw.
    Supporters of the Republican former president attacked the Capitol that day, echoing his false claims of widespread election fraud, interrupting the congressional certification of Democrat Joe Biden’s victory and calling for Vice President Mike Pence’s death because he wouldn’t try to block Biden from becoming president.    The bill clarifies that the vice president has a purely ceremonial role presiding over the certification every Jan. 6 after a presidential election and that he or she has no power to determine the results of the election – an effort to make that point emphatically in the law after Trump and some of his allies put massive pressure on Pence.    Pence resisted those entreaties, but many lawmakers were concerned that the law wasn’t definitive enough.    The legislation states that the vice president “shall have no power to solely determine, accept, reject, or otherwise adjudicate or resolve disputes” over the counting of electors in Congress.
More difficult to object
    The legislation would also make it more difficult for lawmakers to object to a particular state’s electoral votes.    Under current law, just one member of the Senate and one member of the House need to lodge an objection to automatically trigger votes in both chambers on whether to overturn or discard a state’s presidential election results.    The bill would significantly raise that threshold, requiring a fifth of each chamber to object before votes would be held.
    Raising the threshold for objections will do away with a partisan tradition that has rankled members on both sides.    Democrats have objected the last three times that Republicans were elected – twice against George W. Bush and once against Trump.

12/23/2022 CAPITOL RIOT INVESTIGATION - Jan. 6 panel unveils its final report - Describes ‘multi-part conspiracy’ by Trump by Mary Clare Jalonick, ASSOCIATED PRESS
House Jan. 6 committee Vice Chair Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., speaks alongside Chairman Bennie Thompson, left, D-Miss.,
as the panel holds its final meeting on Capitol Hill in Washington on Monday. J. SCOTT APPLEWHITE/AP     WASHINGTON – The House Jan. 6 committee’s final report asserts that Donald Trump criminally engaged in a “multi-part conspiracy” to overturn the lawful results of the 2020 presidential election and failed to act to stop his supporters from attacking the Capitol, concluding an extraordinary 18-month investigation into the former president and the violent insurrection two years ago.
    The 845-page report released Thursday comes after the panel interviewed more than 1,000 witnesses, held 10 hearings and obtained millions of pages of documents. The witnesses – ranging from many of Trump’s closest aides to law enforcement to some of the rioters themselves – detailed Trump’s actions in the weeks ahead of the insurrection and how his wide-ranging pressure campaign to overturn his defeat directly influenced those who brutally pushed past the police and smashed through the windows and doors of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
    The central cause was “one man,” the report says: Trump.
    The insurrection gravely threatened democracy and “put the lives of American lawmakers at risk,” the nine-member panel concluded.
    In a foreword to the report, outgoing Speaker Nancy Pelosi says the findings should be a “clarion call to all Americans: to vigilantly guard our Democracy and to give our vote only to those dutiful in their defense of our Constitution.”
    The report’s eight chapters of findings tell the story largely as the panel’s hearings did this summer – describing the many facets of the remarkable plan that Trump and his advisers devised to try and void President Joe Biden’s victory.    The lawmakers describe his pressure on states, federal officials, lawmakers and Vice President Mike Pence to game the system or break the law.
    Trump’s repeated, false claims of widespread voter fraud resonated with his supporters, the committee said, and were amplified on social media, building on the distrust of government he had fostered for his four years in office.    And he did little to stop them when they resorted to violence and stormed the Capitol.
    The massive, damning report comes as Trump is running again for the presidency and also facing multiple federal investigations, including probes of his role in the insurrection and the presence of classified documents at his Florida estate.    This week is particularly fraught for him, as a House committee is expected to release his tax returns after he has fought for years to keep them private.    And Trump has been blamed by Republicans for a worse-than-expected showing in the midterm elections, leaving him in his most politically vulnerable state since he won the 2016 election.
    It is also a final act for House Democrats who are ceding power to Republicans in less than two weeks, and have spent much of their four years in power investigating Trump.    Democrats impeached Trump twice, the second time a week after the insurrection.    He was acquitted by the Senate both times.    Other Democratic-led probes investigated his finances, his businesses, his foreign ties and his family.
    On Monday, the panel of seven Democrats and two Republicans officially passed their investigation to the Justice Department, recommending the department investigate the former president on four crimes, including aiding an insurrection.    While the criminal referrals have no legal standing, they are a final statement from the committee after its extensive, year-and-a-half-long probe.
    Trump has tried to discredit the report, slamming members of the committee as “thugs and scoundrels” as he has continued to falsely dispute his 2020 loss.
    In response to the panel’s criminal referrals, Trump said: “These folks don’t get it that when they come after me, people who love freedom rally around me.    It strengthens me.”
    The committee has also begun to release hundreds of transcripts of its interviews.    On Thursday, the panel released transcripts of two closed-door interviews with former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, who testified in person at one of the televised hearings over the summer and described in vivid detail Trump’s efforts to influence the election results and indifference toward the violence as it occurred.
    In the two interviews, both conducted after her July appearance at the hearing, she described how many of Trump’s allies, including her lawyer, pressured her not to say too much in her committee interviews.

July 19, 2019 in Washington, DC. (Photo by Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)     45th President Donald J. Trump released a video on Friday to Truth Social in response to the results of the January 6th committee.
    In the video, Trump said that the committee is a “partisan witch hunt” and that they had taken the speech he gave on January 6th and deliberately cut out the part where he told people to “peacefully and patrioticallyz” protest.    He claimed that the committee had manipulated his speech and used it as evidence of him enticing the crowd to violence.
    The former president also talked about how Liz Cheney (R-Wis.) had deliberately omitted the part of his tweet when he urged everyone to “go home with love and peace.”    As well when he told the public to have “peace and respect” for law enforcement 25 to 30 minutes after the breach of the Capitol had happened.
    He emphasized once again, that he had urged the deployment of 10,000 to 20,000 National Guard troops on that day to keep everyone safe, but that the D.C. mayor and Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) refused the request.
    Trump went on to say that more of his tweets were censored by Twitter and the FBI at the time, including one where he said that he wanted “law and order.”    As well as a fake story being pushed out over Twitter where it falsely claimed that Trump had lunged at the steering wheel of the presidential limousine in order to commandeer the vehicle, which he called ridiculous.
    He proceeded to say the 2020 election was a “corrupt disaster” and that the “fake” committee had not been able to find a single shred of evidence that he intended or wanted violence.    He compared the committee and investigation to the Russia Hoax.
    The Florida resident stated that his entire presidency was one witch hunt after another. He listed out the Russia and Ukraine hoaxes, the two impeachments he went through, the FBI censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story and the Mar-a-Lago raid as examples.
    Trump said that the events of January 6th were not an insurrection, but instead that it was a “protest that tragically got out of control.”
    He ended the video saying that the January 6th Committee will go down as the biggest “con job” and “disgrace in history.”

arrested yesterday, is seen June 23, 2006 in Miami, Florida. (Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty Images)     The FBI has responded to the recent release of the Twitter Files calling it “misinformation” and labeling the reporters as “conspiracy theorists.”
    “It is unfortunate that conspiracy theorists and others are feeding the public misinformation with the sole purpose of attempting to discredit the agency,” the FBI wrote on Thursday.
    After the release of the Twitter Files, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has labeled Bari Weiss, Matt Taibbi, and Michael Shellenberger, the reporters who had been in charge of releasing the Twitter Files, to the public as “conspiracy theorists.”    The agency claims that the information they are providing the public is “misinformation.”
    “The correspondence between the FBI and Twitter show nothing more than examples of our traditional, longstanding and ongoing federal government and private sector engagements, which involve numerous companies over multiple sectors and industries,” the FBI went on to say in a statement.
    Weiss responded to the claims on Twitter on Thursday by saying that she would welcome an open debate about the Twitter Files with the FBI.
    Although the FBI has yet to respond to Weiss, the Bureau is receiving a lot of backlash about their statements regarding the Twitter Files.

12/26/2022 China’s COVID-19 surge raises odds of new variant - Conditions may be ripe for it, scientists worry by Laura Ungar and Aniruddha Ghosal, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Commuters head to work during the morning rush hour in Beijing on Tuesday.
China continues to adapt to an easing of strict virus containment regulations. ANDY WONG/AP FILE     Could the COVID-19 surge in China unleash a new coronavirus mutant on the world?
    Scientists don’t know but worry that might happen.    It could be similar to omicron variants circulating there now.    It could be a combination of strains.    Or something entirely different, they say.
    “China has a population that is very large and there’s limited immunity.    And that seems to be the setting in which we may see an explosion of a new variant,” said Dr. Stuart Campbell Ray, an infectious disease expert at Johns Hopkins University.
    Every new infection offers a chance for the coronavirus to mutate, and the virus is spreading rapidly in China.    The country of 1.4 billion has largely abandoned its “zero COVID” policy.    Though overall reported vaccination rates are high, booster levels are lower, especially among older people.    Domestic vaccines have proven less effective against serious infection than Western-made messenger RNA versions.    Many were given more than a year ago, meaning immunity has waned.
    The result?    Fertile ground for the virus to change.
    “When we’ve seen big waves of infection, it’s often followed by new variants being generated,” Ray said.
    About three years ago, the original version of the coronavirus spread from China to the rest of the world and was eventually replaced by the delta variant, then omicron and its descendants, which continue plaguing the world today.
    Dr. Shan-Lu Liu, who studies viruses at Ohio State University, said many existing omicron variants have been detected in China, including BF.7, which is extremely adept at evading immunity and is believed to be driving the current surge.
    Experts said a partially immune population like China’s puts particular pressure on the virus to change.    Ray compared the virus to a boxer that “learns to evade the skills that you have and adapt to get around those.”
    One big unknown is whether a new variant will cause more severe disease.    Experts say there’s no inherent biological reason the virus has to become milder over time.
    “Much of the mildness we’ve experienced over the past six to 12 months in many parts of the world has been due to accumulated immunity either through vaccination or infection, not because the virus has changed” in severity, Ray said.
    In China, most people have never been exposed to the coronavirus.
    China’s vaccines rely on an older technology producing fewer antibodies than messenger RNA vaccines.
    Given those realities, Dr. Gagandeep Kang, who studies viruses at the Christian Medical College in Vellore, India, said it remains to be seen if the virus will follow the same pattern of evolution in China as it has in the rest of the world after vaccines came out.    “Or,” she asked, “will the pattern of evolution be completely different?”
    Recently, the World Health Organization expressed concern about reports of severe disease in China.    Around the cities of Baoding and Langfang outside Beijing, hospitals have run out of intensive care beds and staff as severe cases surge.
    China’s plan to track the virus centers around three city hospitals in each province, where samples will be collected from walk-in patients who are very sick and all those who die every week, Xu Wenbo of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention said at a briefing Tuesday.
    He said 50 of the 130 omicron versions detected in China had resulted in outbreaks.
    The country is creating a national genetic database “to monitor in real time” how different strains were evolving and the potential implications for public health, he said.
    At this point, however, there’s limited information about genetic viral sequencing coming out of China, said Jeremy Luban, a virologist at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.
    “We don’t know all of what’s going on,” Luban said.    But clearly, “the pandemic is not over.”

12/26/2022 Netanyahu rebukes far-right ally - Anti-LGBTQ comments ‘unacceptable,’ PM says by Ilan Ben Zion, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to form the most ultranationalist and religious government in the
country’s history between his Likud movement and several openly anti-LGBTQ parties. ABIR SULTAN/POOL PHOTO VIA AP FILE     JERUSALEM – Designated Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a rare rebuke of his new coalition allies on Sunday for saying they would advance laws allowing discrimination against LGBTQ people, pledging there would be no harm to their rights by his upcoming government.
    Netanyahu is set to form the most ultranationalist and religious government in Israel’s history between his Likud movement and several openly anti-LGBTQ parties.    This has raised fears among Israel’s LGBTQ community that the new government, expected to take office in the coming week, will roll back gains they have made in recent years.
    Orit Struck, a Religious Zionist member of the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, said her party seeks a change to the country’s anti-discrimination law that would include permitting people to avoid acts that go against their religious beliefs – including discriminating against LGBTQ people in hospitals.b     Struck said in an interview on Sunday with Kan public radio that “so long as there are enough other doctors to provide care,” religious healthcare providers should be able refuse to treat LGBTQ patients.
    Simcha Rotman, another member of the party, said that private business owners, such as hotel operators, should be allowed to refuse service to LGBTQ “if it harms their religious feelings.”
    Netanyahu issued a pair of statements repudiating Struck’s comments.
    Netanyahu said that Struck’s remarks “are unacceptable to me and to members of Likud,” and that the coalition agreement “does not allow discrimination against LGBTQ or harming their right to receive services like all other Israeli citizens.”
    As the controversy continued to rage, he later issued a second videotaped statement saying he “completely rejects” Struck’s remarks.
    “In the country that I will lead, there will be no situation where a person, whether he is LGBT, Arab or ultra-Orthodox or any other person, will enter a hotel and not receive service, enter a doctor and not receive service,” he said.
    The controversy came days after the Yediot Ahronot daily reported that another member of the Religious Zionism alliance, the far-right Noam faction, once compiled a list of LGBTQ journalists and claimed the “LGBT media” amounted to a lobby of “incomparable strength.”
    Sunday’s uproar prompted Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog, to express his own concerns.    The president is a largely figurehead position who is meant to serve as a moral compass and unifying force for the country.
    “A situation in which Israeli citizens feel threatened due to their identity or faith undermines the basic democratic and moral values of the State of Israel,” Herzog said.    “The racist statements heard in recent days against the LGBT community and in general against different sectors and publics - worry and disturb me a lot.”     It was the latest sign of trouble for Netanyahu’s emerging coalition, which is dominated by far-right and ultra-Orthodox partners pushing for dramatic changes that could alienate large swaths of the Israeli public, raise the risk of conflict with the Palestinians and put Israel on a collision course with some of its closest supporters, including the United States and the Jewish American community.
    The outgoing government took several small steps to advance LGBTQ rights, including rescinding a ban on blood donations by gay men, streamlining access to gender reassignment surgery and taking a clear stand against “conversion therapy,” the scientifically discredited practice of using therapy to “convert” LGBTQ people to heterosexuality or traditional gender expectations.
    The incoming government includes two ultra-Orthodox parties that do not allow female candidates, and Religious Zionism, an umbrella movement whose leaders are vocally homophobic.
    Members of the LGBTQ community serve openly in Israel’s military and parliament, and many popular artists and entertainers as well as several former government ministers are openly gay.    But leaders of the LGBTQ community say Israel has a long way to go to promote equality.
    Netanyahu and his religious and nationalist parties captured a majority of seats in the Knesset in Nov. 1 elections.    Last week, he said he had successfully formed a new coalition.    The government, however, has not yet been sworn into office, and Netanyahu and his partners are still finalizing their power-sharing agreements. Netanyahu served for 12 years as Israel’s prime minister before he was ousted from power last year.

12/26/2022 Jan. 6 report blames 1 person: Trump - Document details pressure on state, federal officials and Pence by Mary Clare Jalonick, ASSOCIATED PRESS
Rioters supporting President Donald Trump storm the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump’s false claims of a stolen election
'provoked his supporters to violence on January 6th,' the committee investigating the riot wrote. John Minchillo/AP file     WASHINGTON – A massive final report released by the House Jan. 6 committee late Thursday places the blame for the 2021 Capitol insurrection on one person: former President Donald Trump.
    The dense, 814-page document details the findings of the panel’s 18-month investigation, drawing on more than 1,000 witness interviews and more than a million pages of source material.    The committee found a 'multi-part conspiracy' orchestrated by Trump and his closest allies, all with the aim of overturning his 2020 election defeat.
    By laying out the extraordinary details – his pressure on states, federal officials and Vice President Mike Pence – the committee of seven Democrats and two Republicans says it is trying to prevent anything similar from ever happening again.
    The panel is also aiming to prevent Trump, who is running again for the presidency, from ever returning to power.    Among other recommendations, the panel suggests that Congress consider barring him and others who helped him from federal office for his role in the insurrection, in which a violent mob of his supporters stormed the Capitol and interrupted the certification of President Joe Biden’s victory.
    'Our country has come too far to allow a defeated President to turn himself into a successful tyrant by upending our democratic institutions, fomenting violence, and, as I saw it, opening the door to those in our country whose hatred and bigotry threaten equality and justice for all Americans,' wrote the committee’s chairman, Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, in a foreword to the report.
    A look at the findings and what’s next:
‘One man’ to blame
    The report traces Trump’s lies about widespread election fraud to conversations with some of his allies ahead of Election Day, evidence that his plan was 'premeditated,' the committee says.    After he carried out that plan by questioning the legitimate results on election night – 'Frankly, we did win this election,' he told the TV cameras – he purposely disseminated false allegations of fraud.
    Many of Trump’s White House advisers told him the lies were not true, according to multiple committee interviews, and his campaign lost a series of lawsuits challenging the results.    But the former president did not waver.
    'Donald Trump was no passive consumer of these lies,' the committee wrote.    'He actively propagated them.'
    The false claims 'provoked his supporters to violence on January 6th,' the committee wrote.    Trump summoned them to Washington and instructed them in a fiery speech to march to the Capitol even though some 'were angry and some were armed.'
    And after the violence started, Trump waited hours to tell them to stop. That was a 'dereliction of duty,' the committee said.
Pressure on the states
    As he lost in the courts, Trump 'zeroed in' on key battleground states Biden had won and leaned on GOP state officials to overrule the will of their voters.    The plan was wide-ranging, the committee shows, from pressuring state legislatures and election officials to creating false slates of electors.    The panel obtained emails and documents showing talks within the White House and with outside advisers about how such a scheme could work.
    Perhaps the most stunning attempt to pressure a state official was Trump’s remarkable Jan. 2, 2021, phone call with Georgia’s secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, in which he asked him to 'find' votes. Raffensperger did not comply.
    After speaking with election officials from several states, the committee said that Georgia call was 'one element of a larger and more comprehensive effort – much of it unseen by and unknown to the general public – to overturn the votes cast by millions of American citizens across several states.'
    The panel assessed that Trump and his inner circle engaged in 'in at least 200 apparent acts of public or private outreach' to state officials between the election and the insurrection.    At the same time, the president was trying to get Justice Department officials to go along with his plan.
    'Had enough state officials gone along with President Trump’s plot, his attempt to stay in power might have worked,' the committee wrote.    'It is fortunate that a critical mass of honorable officials withstood President Trump’s pressure to participate in this scheme.'
Pence’s life at risk
    As Trump aggressively pushed Mike Pence to illegally object to the congressional certification of Biden’s victory as he presided over the joint session of Congress, the vice president’s life was increasingly in danger, the committee found.
    At 8:17 a.m. on Jan. 6, Trump tweeted, 'Do it Mike, this is a time for extreme courage!'
    By the start of the joint session at 1 p.m., Pence had announced that he would not.    By then, there were hundreds of Trump’s supporters outside the Capitol, some chanting, 'Hang Mike Pence!'    Pence eventually fled the Senate chamber and narrowly escaped the rioters.
    According to Secret Service documents provided to the panel, agents were aware of growing threats against Pence.    In one instance, an agent in the intelligence division 'was alerted to online chatter ‘regarding the VP being a dead man walking if he doesn’t do the right thing,’' the report says.
    'It was an unprecedented scene in American history,' the committee wrote.    'The President of the United States had riled up a mob that hunted his own Vice President.'
Thwarted trip to the Capitol
    Trump was determined to go to the Capitol with his supporters, the investigation found, but nearly everyone thought that was a bad idea – most of all his security detail.
    Cassidy Hutchinson, a former White House aide, testified over the summer about a conversation she had with former Trump security official Tony Ornato, where he recalled Trump lashing out at his security after his speech and even grabbing the wheel of the presidential SUV.
    In the report, the committee writes that Ornato denied Hutchinson’s story in a deposition last month, saying he was not aware of a genuine push by Trump to join his supporters at the Capitol.    The committee said it continues to have 'significant concerns about the credibility' of his testimony.
    The driver of the presidential SUV testified that he didn’t see Trump and could not recall if Trump had lunged toward him.    The driver, who is not named in the report, did recall Trump asking within 30 seconds of getting inside the vehicle whether he could go to the Capitol.    One Secret Service employee testified to the committee that Trump’s determination to go to the Capitol put agents on high alert.
    '(We) all knew … that this was going to move to something else if he physically walked to the Capitol,' a unidentified employee said.    'I don’t know if you want to use the word ‘insurrection,’ ‘coup,’ whatever.'
    Trump stayed at the White House, watching the violence on television for hours while refusing to ask his supporters to leave.
Foreign interference
    The report includes an appendix on the role of foreign influence in the 2020 presidential campaign, saying that while adversaries including Russia, Iran and China sought to sway American voter opinion, there was no evidence to support Trump’s repeated claims that foreign actors had interfered in the voting process or did anything to manipulate the outcome.
    'President Trump’s relentless propagation of the Big Lie damaged American democracy from within and made it more vulnerable to attack from abroad.    His actions did not go unnoticed by America’s adversaries, who seized on the opportunity to damage the United States,' the report states.
    The report suggests that even Trump himself did not believe some of his allies’ claims about foreign actors.
    According to testimony from longtime Trump aide Hope Hicks, Trump appeared somewhat incredulous when he was talking on the phone to lawyer Sidney Powell, who had pushed theories of hacked voting machines and thermostats.
    The report says that while Powell was speaking, Trump muted his speakerphone and laughed, 'telling the others in the room, ‘This does sound crazy, doesn’t it?’'
What’s next
    The committee is dissolving over the next week as the new Republican-led House will be sworn in on Jan. 3.
    But the panel ensured that its work will live on, officially recommending that the Justice Department investigate and prosecute Trump on four crimes.
    While a so-called criminal referral has no real legal standing, it is a forceful statement by the committee and adds to political pressure already on Attorney General Merrick Garland and special counsel Jack Smith, who is already conducting an investigation into Jan. 6 and Trump’s actions.
    The panel recommended the department investigate charges of aiding an insurrection, obstructing an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud the United States and conspiracy to make a false statement, all for various parts of his scheme.
    The committee is also making its work, including transcripts, public for the Justice Department and the public to see.
    'We have every confidence that the work of this committee will help provide a road map to justice,' Thompson said.

12/26/2022 Twitter Files: Not Just The FBI by OAN Roy Francis

the facility and met some of the Agency”s employees. (Pool Photo by David Burnett/Newsmakers)     In this edition of the Twitter Files released on Saturday, Matt Taibbi talked about how the FBI monitored accounts, including the time period leading up to the 2020 election.    Also, how the FBI was not the only government agency that was involved with Twitter.
    After weeks of Twitter File releases, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) responded and instead of refuting the allegations or providing evidence otherwise, they called the reporters who worked on them conspiracy theorists whose “sole purpose” is to discredit them.
    The files, however, showed that the FBI is not the only agency that was working with Twitter.    Although they were the agency that had the most contact, there was a number of federal agencies that were in also in constant communication with the platform.    These agencies included the State Department, the Pentagon, and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
    The files revealed that there was so much contact with all these agencies that Twitter executives were losing track of who they were supposed to meet with and when the meetings were taking place.
    Most of the reports and communications was coming through the FBI’s San Francisco field office.    Agents like FBI agent Elvis Chan were emailing Twitter executives to see if they could invite “OGA” to an NGO-sponsored conference that was coming up.
    OGA (Other Government Organization) was used to refer to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) according to multiple intelligence officials and contractors.
    One of the executives at Twitter was ex-CIA officer Ray McGovern.    He had worked for the government agency for over 27 years.
    It was confirmed in an email sent from senior legal executive Stacia Cardille to ex-FBI lawyer Jim Baker at Twitter, that both the FBI and CIA were attending the conference with Twitter.
    The government, however, was not only in contact with just the social media platform, but almost every major tech firm which included Facebook, Microsoft, Verizon, Reddit and many others.
    The multi-agency Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF) would hold constant meetings and conferences with Twitter, and they would always invite many agents from the different agencies to their meetings.
    Even though that task force was meant for foreign influence, they were also sending “mountains” of domestic moderation requests.    Many of these requests were being delivered through Teleporter, a platform where messages would delete after a certain period of time.
    As the 2020 election was approaching the requests were increasing, many of the requests were “problem” accounts on Twitter.

    Employees at Twitter had to figure out how to be able to sort and prioritize the overwhelming amount of requests being sent to them.    Most of the requests were from the FBI as they were monitoring accounts for Twitter violations, to the surprise of some Twitter executives.


    The New York FBI office was monitoring articles off of the social media platform.    They were requesting that Twitter gives them the “user IDs and handles” of the accounts involved with certain articles.    One such article was from the Daily Beast.    Employees of Twitter were compliant with the requests.
    Executives at the tech giant were under increasing pressure from federal agencies to find any links within accounts that they were given to foreign influence.    Even though the employees were not finding any evidence in a number of accounts, they would have to “brainstorm” to “find a stronger connection.”
    The State Department had been making weak assertions of Russian influence which led to the ex-CIA officer Ray McGovern explaining that they were not finding any technical evidence.    The government agencies were becoming more and more aggressive.
    Agencies were also communicating through the FBI and FITF to other high-profile platforms and not just with Twitter.
    These emails were confirmed by Former CIA agent John Kiriakou to be from the CIA according to their formatting.
    A report listed accounts accusing them of “Ukraine ‘neo-Nazi’ propaganda.”    These accounts included information that in 2014 Joe Biden had helped stage a coup and get his son a high position of the board of Burisma.
    Another report listed a number of accounts that accused the Biden administration of corruption in vaccine distribution as a Russian influence campaign.
    A site that was documenting rights abuses by the Ukrainians was reported as having been directed by the Russians as well.
    Even though the origins of these accounts might not be known, some of the information on them might have been true.    So, tech platforms were faced with a difficult freedom of speech dilemma.    Do the American people have the right to see pro-Maduro or anti-Ukrainian accounts?    Or does the government have the right to block that information?
    The FBI, as well as other government agencies, had taken it upon themselves to root out accounts that they deemed as problematic.    With the help of Twitter and other big tech platforms, the accounts were taken down, blocked, or their reach was limited.    In some cases, even when Twitter executives could not find any evidence to support the agencies’ claims, they still found a way to oblige to the requests.

(Photo by Lionel BONAVENTURE / AFP) (Photo by LIONEL BONAVENTURE/AFP via Getty Images)     The coronavirus is a SARS virus that caused to world to come to a pause.    COVID-19 was classified as a worldwide pandemic in March of 2020.
    The pandemic hit when Donald J. Trump was president.    His administration called on tech companies to help combat the issue of “panic buying” and to help stop misinformation from spreading.    When Joe Biden became president and his administration took over nearly ten months later, the focus for tech companies shifted to focus on “anti-vaxxer accounts.”
    One of the main anti-vaxxer accounts that caught the attention of the administration was Alex Berenson.    He was suspended from the platform after Biden claimed that social media companies were “killing people” for allowing vaccine misinformation.
    Berenson sued Twitter for kicking him off the platform. During the legal process of the lawsuit, Twitter was compelled to release certain internal communications which showed the White House’s pressure on the social media company to take action on Berenson.
    Twitter wasn’t the happiest with Biden’s wishes.    After an extensive review of internal communications at the company, it was revealed that employees often debated moderation.    However, the platform complied with the government by censoring doctors and scientific experts who had opposing views to the White House.
    There were three main issues with Twitter’s process as to who filtered what was deemed misinformation.    First, much of the content moderation was conducted by bots that were trained on machine learning and AI.    Through this impressive engineering, many things were unnecessarily classified as misinformation due to the bots being too crude for nuanced work.    Secondly, contractors in the Philippines also moderated content.    They faced a significant error rate due to tasking non experts to adjudicate tweets on complex topics.    Lastly, higher level employees at Twitter, who chose the inputs for the bots and decision trees, subjectively decided escalated cases and suspensions.    In turn, legitimate content was labeled as misinformation due to individual bias.
    An account which was falsely marked was Dr. Martin Kulldorff.
    Due to the “false information” that Kulldorff wrote, his tweet was slapped with a “misleading” label and all replies and likes were shut off.    This limited the tweets exposure.
    Another tweet, which displayed the CDC’s own data, by Kelley Kga faced the same treatment.

    45th President Donald J. Trump tweeted when he had COVID-19.    In his tweet he said “i>Don’t be afraid of COVID. Don’t let it dominate your life.”    In response, Jim Baker, Twitter’s Deputy General Counsel, asked Twitter executives why the tweet wasn’t considered a violation of the company’s COVID-19 misinformation policy.    In response, Yoel Roth, Twitter’s former head of Trust and Security had to explain to Baker that optimism wasn’t misinformation.
    During the height of the pandemic and in recent events, Twitter has made decisions based off of the political leanings of senior staff and off of what the government wanted.    Both parties allowed information to be shared that didn’t go against their pro-vaccine agenda.

monthly meeting on October 27, 2021 in Houston, Texas. (Photo by Brandon Bell/Getty Images)     Governor Greg Abbott slammed the White House for their criticism of him sending migrants to Washington D.C.    Around 140 migrants arrived at Vice President Kamala Harris’ house on Christmas Eve.    The migrants were sent there by the Texas Division of Emergency Management which is under directive from Governor Greg Abbott (R-Texas).
    The Republican governor has periodically sent migrants to other locations to provide some relief for his border communities.    The Lone Star State’s borders are currently seeing a record number of migrant crossings under the Biden administration’s federal border policies, which Abbott labeled as “reckless.”
    The White House criticized Abbott on Sunday, labelling what he did a “cruel, dangerous, and shameful stunt.”
    “The White House is full of a bunch of hypocrites, led by the Hypocrite-in-Chief.” Renae Eze, a spokesperson for Abbott said in a statement.    “Instead of their hypocritical complaints about Texas providing much-needed relief to our overrun and overwhelmed border communities, President Biden and Border Czar Harris need to step up and do their jobs to secure the border, something they continue failing to do.”
    Eze went on to explain that the migrants who were bused had “willingly chose to go” and had “signed a voluntary consent waiver available in multiple locations upon boarding that they agreed on the destination.”
    The southern border has seen a record number of migrant crossings lately, with border towns being the most heavily affected.    Towns such as El Paso were forced to declare a state of emergency due to the high volume of migrants they are seeing.

12/29/2022 Subpoena Scrapped In Jan. 6th Committee’s Final Days by OAN Shannon Kelland

charges to the Justice Department of insurrection, obstruction of an official proceeding of Congress and conspiracy
to defraud the United States against former President Donald Trump. (Photo by Jim Lo Scalzo-Pool/Getty Images)     The January 6th Committee has withdrawn its subpoena of former President Donald Trump prior to Democrats loss of the House majority and the new Republican reign disbands the panel.
    The committee Chairman, Bennie Thompson (D-Miss) sent a letter on Wednesday to Trump’s lawyer.
    “In light of the imminent end of our investigation, the Select Committee can no longer pursue the specific information covered by the subpoena.    Therefore, through this letter, I hereby formally withdraw the subpoena issued to former President Trump, and notify you that he is no longer obligated to comply or produce records in response to said subpoena,” Thompson wrote.
    The committee subpoenaed Trump in October, which ordered him to turn over documents by November 4th.    It also requested for Trump to appear for depositions under oath beginning on November 14th.
    Trump opposed by filing a lawsuit to block the subpoena.    His lawyers called it “invalid,” because it did not further a legislative purpose.    They also claimed it to be overly broad and an attack on his First Amendment rights. The result of the suit froze the issue.
    This withdrawal is in conjunction with the House’s January 6th probe winding down.    With committee officially expiring on December 31st, there is not enough time to litigate these matters.
    Trump took to his social media platform Truth Social to celebrate the news and comment on the committee.
    Earlier this month, the committee had dropped subpoenas served to other notable figures. This included former top Trump political advisors Stephen Miller and Roger Stone.
    One of Trump’s lawyers, Harmeet K. Dillon, also took to social media to celebrate with a tweet update out to the public.
    The final public meeting the committee was held last week, and transcripts of witness testimonies are continually being release.    The testimonies include statements from former aide Cassidy Hutchinson, who described Chief of Staff Mark Meadows burning documents “roughly a dozen times.”    In addition, former Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo discussed the idea of removing Trump from office via the 25th Amendment.

12/30/2022 Jan. 6 panel drops Trump subpoena - House committee wrapping up work by Mary Clare Jal nick and Eric Tucker, ASSOCIATED PRESS
A video of former President Donald Trump is shown on a screen as the House Jan. 6 committee meets on Dec. 19.
The committee has dropped its subpoena against Trump as it prepares to dissolve next week. J. SCOTT APPLEWHITE/AP FILE     WASHINGTON – The House Jan. 6 committee has dropped its subpoena against former President Donald Trump as it wraps up work and prepares to dissolve next week.
    Mississippi Rep. Bennie Thompson, the committee’s Democratic chairman, wrote in a letter to Trump lawyer David Warrington on Wednesday that he is formally withdrawing the subpoena.
    “As you may know, the Select Committee has concluded its hearings, released its final report and will very soon reach its end,” Thompson wrote.    “In light of the imminent end of our investigation, the Select Committee can no longer pursue the specific information covered by the subpoena.”
    The committee had voted to subpoena Trump during its final televised hearing before the midterm elections in October, demanding testimony and documents from the former president as it has investigated his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection and efforts to overturn his 2020 defeat.
    Lawmakers on the panel have acknowledged the subpoena would be difficult to enforce, especially as Republicans are poised to take over the House in January.    But the move had political and symbolic value.
    “We are obligated to seek answers directly from the man who set this all-in motion,” Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, the panel’s vice chairwoman and one of two Republicans on the nine-member committee, said at the time.    “And every American is entitled to those answers.”
    Trump then sued the panel in November to avoid cooperating.    The lawsuit contended that while former presidents have voluntarily agreed to provide testimony or documents in response to congressional subpoenas in the past, “no president or former president has ever been compelled to do so.”
    The committee’s request for documents was sweeping, including personal communications between Trump and members of Congress as well as extremist groups.    Trump’s attorneys said it was overly broad and framed it as an infringement of his First Amendment rights.
    While the panel never gained Trump’s testimony, the committee interviewed more than 1,000 witnesses, including most of his closest White House aides and allies.    Many of those witnesses provided substantive detail about his efforts to sway state legislators, federal officials and lawmakers to help him overturn his defeat.    And White House aides who were with him on Jan. 6 told the panel about his resistance to tell the violent mob of his supporters to leave the Capitol after they had broken in and interrupted the certification of President Joe Biden’s victory.
    In its final report issued last week, the committee concluded that Trump engaged in a “multi-part conspiracy” to upend the 2020 election and failed to act on the violence.    The panel also recommended that the Justice Department investigate the former president for four separate crimes, including aiding an insurrection.
    On social media Wednesday evening, Trump and his lawyers construed the move as a victory.        “They probably did so because they knew I did nothing wrong, or they were about to lose in Court,” Trump wrote on his social media site.    He called the panel “political Thugs.”

    The release of several years’ worth of Trump’s tax returns by House Democrats is launching what is expected to be another round of intense scrutiny of his finances.
    The release marks a major step by the Ways and Means Chair Richard Neal (D-Mass), who had been locked in a three-and-a-half-year legal battle over the release of Trump’s taxes.    The Supreme Court ruled in favor of Neal in November.
    The release of his taxes adds to a list of political and legal challenges that Trump is facing as he prepares for his 2024 presidential campaign.
    The release includes six years of joint tax returns by Trump and his wife Melania from 2015 through 2020.    It includes 2,700 pages and report income from his different businesses such as golf, restaurant, and ice-skating businesses.
    The forms include income that was generated by Trump in foreign countries such as Canada, China, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, the Philippines, and the Caribbean island of Saint Martin.    As well as gross amounts reported from Ireland and the United Kingdom.
    Republicans denounced the move labelling it a political hit job which will “open Pandora’s box.”    The former president also released a statement that “the Democrats should have never done it, the Supreme Court should have never approved it, and it’s going to lead to horrible things for so many people.”
    Republicans who will take over the House next week, say that by releasing Trump’s tax returns, the Democrats are setting a dangerous precedent where in the future no one will be safe from having their returns disclosed to the public.
