...“How big a factor was the Hunter stuff?” Couric asked Tapper, who was sitting alongside Alex Thompson, the co-author of their upcoming book, “Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again.”
“I think it was considerable. I think Hunter was driving the decision-making for the family in a way that people– he was almost like a chief of staff of the family,” Tapper replied.

Just read a copy of this silly book, and if anyone is curious for a review from someone who lived it first-hand: this book is political fairy smut for the permanent, professional chattering class. The ones who rarely enter the arena, but profit from the spectacle of those that do. Put simply, it amounts to a bunch of unoriginal, uninspired lies written by irresponsible self promoting journalists out to make a quick buck. It relies on unnamed, anonymous sources pushing a self-serving false narrative that absolves them of any responsibility for our current national nightmare.All of this at the expense of a man so completely good and honest that it is impossible for these people to ever understand the why or how of it all. There are real stories to be told and one day they will be. I suspect history will reward the truth. - Naomi Biden, daughter of Joe and Jill

Don't Mess With These Three Amigos...
Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) wrote that Paramount appears to be “trying to settle” a $20 billion lawsuit Trump filed against CBS and “60 Minutes” before the 2024 election, even though it had previously assessed the suit as “completely without merit.”...“Under the federal bribery statute, it is illegal to corruptly give anything of value to public officials to influence an official act,” they wrote. “If Paramount officials make these concessions in a quid pro quo arrangement to influence President Trump or other Administration officials, they may be breaking the law.”
Republicans are shady. They snuck, into the bill last night, that would allow the government to sell 500,000 acres of public land in Utah and Nevada. Selling our land, our hiking trails so the wealthy can have a tax cut. They force us to pay taxes while cutting things we like, - GinnyMcDonald 8
You have to love the look on the face of the lady to the left of Bondi when she is talking about Springsteen!
ReplyDelete🤨🤪 The fact that I believed, for a moment, that Bondi is fully capable of saying "the Boss" is violating the nickname law (or sumthin') means my own critically thinking skills are being overwhelmed by this moment in history! Thank goodness Snopes* saved me. If I had looked closer to begin with, I would have seen the satire in plain sight..."Department of Injustice!!" 🫣🤦♀️.
