  1. The ‘Lock Him Up’ Election Whether Biden likes it or not, he will have to defend prosecuting Trump, who will absolutely end the case if he wins.
    By Ankush Khardori

    On Thursday evening, Donald Trump officially began walking one of the most perilous tightropes in American political history.

    After he broke the widely expected news of his federal indictment, Trump once again, and predictably, began railing against the Justice Department. He is now facing his most serious legal threat and clearly views this antagonistic posture as essential to his reelection effort, which, if successful, could effectively moot whatever happens in this prosecution come January 2025, including a conviction. This same posture, however, threatens to make both his legal situation and reelection prospects worse.

    At the moment, we are operating in a major informational vacuum, despite the reporting overnight about the nature of the charges, which are said to be violations of the Espionage Act over retaining national defense secrets, making false statements to investigators, and a conspiracy to obstruct justice. We do not have the indictment, and we may not see it until Trump is arraigned in Miami on Tuesday. The situation is quite distinct from where we found ourselves in the days immediately after we learned that Trump had been indicted by the Manhattan district attorney’s office but before the indictment became public. The reason is that some members of the media had (through their reporting) developed a very clear understanding of what the charges would be — both as a legal and factual matter — before the indictment was publicly released. In the few intervening days in that case, many people speculated (or perhaps hoped) that the charges might be more expansive and damning than they ultimately were — dozens of charges tied pretty much exclusively to the hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels.

    The media, to be blunt, does not have that same level of insight this time around. There has, of course, been a great deal of reporting on the documents at Mar-a-Lago since the FBI’s search last August, but we are largely in the dark on some of the most important questions.

    First and foremost, what was actually in the documents that Trump took and refused to return, and what was he doing with them? Overnight, for instance, the New York Times observed that while “the nature of a few of the documents found in Mr. Trump’s possession is known — he had held onto letters from the North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, for example — it remains unclear what other classified materials were found at Mar-a-Lago and moreover what, if any, damage to national security his possession of them caused.” We will hopefully get greater clarity on this front either from the indictment or from early court filings from the government, but the answer could have major implications for how the American public, the court system, and the media ultimately process the allegations.

    Already, Trump and some Republicans have sought to portray the indictment as part of a Democratic plot to “weaponize” the government against him, but the reality is that neither Joe Biden nor Attorney General Merrick Garland, who would have signed off on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s decision to bring charges, wanted to be in this position. On the campaign trial and following his election, Biden repeatedly indicated that he did not want to see his administration prosecute Trump. By all outward appearances, Garland was of the same disposition. As I reported a profile of the attorney general earlier this year, that came through even more clearly: Garland came into office hoping to avoid a direct confrontation with Trump and a historically unprecedented prosecution that could sharply divide an already fractured country.

    Things clearly did not work out that way, and though there is much to learn about how we got to this point, the blame for this ought to be laid first and foremost at the feet of Trump. Whatever the merits of the prosecution — which will no doubt be intensely debated as we learn more — he brought it upon himself. He and his lawyers had multiple opportunities to resolve this mess and return the documents without prosecution, and they seemed to delight in blowing right past them at every

      • Yes, but the government has people who count lightening strikes. Other groups also count lightening strikes — they know when they state there is no known cause. Justine knows.

        There have been arrests.

        The fire situation I the last 10 years has not been getting worse. That is a lie.

  4. DEVELOPING: Nine People Injured During Mass Shooting in San Francisco – Police Say It Was a “Targeted and Isolated” Attack (VIDEO)
    By Cullen Linebarger Jun. 10, 2023 8:00 am0 Comments

    In addition to dodging feces and needles in San Francisco’s streets, now residents have to worry about dodging bullets.

    San Francisco police said nine people were injured Friday night after gunfire erupted in the Mission District area of the city.

    The police claim that all of the victims are expected to survive and described the shooting as a “targeted and isolated” attack.

    Independent journalist Matthew Keys said the incident the shooting occurred at 9:15 PM local time at 24th Street and Treat Avenue. This was right in front of clothing retailer Dying Breed, which was hosting its sixth anniversary party that night according to Keys.

  5. Former Top Department of Justice Official Blows Up Jack Smith’s Case Against President Trump With One Tweet – Notices Key Item on Third Page of the Federal Indictment That Is “Grounds for Granting a Motion” to Dismiss
    By Cullen Linebarger Jun. 10, 2023 7:45 am34 Comments

    A former top Department of Justice official completely blew up Special Counsel Jack Smith’s inquisition against President Trump with one simple tweet on Friday. He claims there is a key piece of information in the indictment that is grounds for a quick dismissal.

    As TGP’s Cassandra MacDonald previously reported Trump announced on social media Thursday night that he had been informed he had been indicted in special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into his handling of classified documents.

    He will be arraigned in Miami on Tuesday. The Biden regime decided to indict Trump over having classified documents at the Mar-A-Lago.

  7. North Korea State Media Accuses Zelenskyy of Being Mastermind Behind Kakhovka Dam Destruction
    By Jim Hoft Jun. 10, 2023 7:15 am47 Comments

    North Korean state media launched an attack on Ukraine, insinuating that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was responsible for destroying the Kakhovka dam, endangering the region’s food supplies, NK News reported.

    The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) published the statement on Friday by O Song Jin, a researcher from the state-run Institute of International Studies. The article suggested that the collapse of the dam was part of a joint conspiracy orchestrated by the U.S. and Kyiv to falsely accuse Russia of war crimes.

    According to the Guardian, “Blowing up a dam can be considered a war crime, the Geneva conventions say, if it “may cause the release of dangerous forces and consequent severe losses among the civilian population,” and the effects of a large release of water on people and homes remains for now dangerous but uncertain.”

    “The case of the collapsed Kakhovka dam is, after all, nothing but another farce, and the second ‘Nord Stream’ case cooked up by the US and Ukraine in cahoots to shift the blame for humanitarian disaster onto Russia and create a political and military environment favorable for the so-called counteroffensive operation of Ukraine,” the researcher said.

    AA.com has more on the story:

    Russia and Ukraine traded blame over the blast that destroyed part of the dam that supplied water to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant and Crimea, annexed by Russia in 2014. The incident has led to flooding in the nearby settlements.

    Moscow accused Ukraine of attempting to cut Crimea off the freshwater it receives from the Kakhovka Reservoir, formed by the dam, while Kyiv claimed that Russia was trying to hinder an expected counteroffensive.

    O Song questioned Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who likes to “bluff,” saying that the collapse of the dam “would have no effect on Ukraine’s efforts for restoring its territory.”

    “It is self-evident who is vitally interested in the recent humanitarian disaster, in the light of the sinister intention of Ukraine making desperate efforts to accuse Russia of war crimes by employing all means and methods and of the intention of Russia adjusting the intensity of its military operations to prevent damage to peaceable residents as much as possible,” he added.

    O Song accused Ukraine, with the support of the US, of being “fully motivated” to carry out such “hideous” acts, considering the significant destruction caused in the regions of Ukraine “that have recently become part of Russia.”

  8. Washington Judge Orders Women-Only Spa with Compulsory Nudity to Accept Trans Women with Hanging Penises
    By Jim Hoft Jun. 10, 2023 8:30 am2 Comments

    A district judge in Washington state has ruled that Olympus Spa, a women-only spa where nudity is compulsory, must allow pre-op transgender women with penises to utilize their facilities.

    This ruling comes after the spa sued the Washington State Human Rights Commission (WSHRC) when they were previously ordered to change its ‘discriminatory rules’ which is ‘biological women only’ policy.

    Haven Wilvich, a biological male, complained when his membership application was declined by the Korean-style spa. He was allegedly told that “transgender women without surgery are not welcome.”

    The spa’s response prompted Wilvich to file a complaint with the WSHRC in May 2020.

    On December 13, 2008, junk scientist Al Gore predicted the North Polar Ice Cap would be completely ice-free in five years.
    And, with this lie, the global warming hysteria began.

    Gore made the prediction to a German audience on December 13, 2008. Al warned them that “the entire North ‘polarized’ cap will disappear in 5 years.” The Gateway Pundit reported on this at the time.

  11. Oregon Liberals Risk an Ugly Legacy as Another County Joins ‘Greater Idaho’ Movement
    By Mike Landry, The Western Journal Jun. 10, 2023 9:00 am123 Comments

    Here’s a solution for Oregon residents suffering from bad government in their state — just leave. And take much of Oregon with you.

    A thirteenth Oregon county will be voting on a citizens’ resolution to escape Oregon liberalism and join the state of Idaho, KTVZ reported.

    Voters in Crook County, Oregon, will participate in advisory balloting next May, joining a dozen other counties in the state which have already approved starting the steps to attach eastern Oregon to Idaho.

    It’s part of the Greater Idaho movement, whose website states the current Oregon-Idaho line, set 163 years ago, “is now outdated.”

    “It makes no sense in its current location because it doesn’t match the location of the cultural divide in Oregon,” according to the website. “The Oregon/Washington line was updated in 1958. It’s time to move other state lines.”

    Ultimately, any new change in the state line would require approval by both Oregon and Idaho legislatures and by Congress.

    Wednesday, Crook County voters approved allowing the electorate to conduct an advisory vote in May 2024. The advisory vote would be “to determine voter attitudes of whether your Crook County elected officials should inform state and federal officials that the people of Crook County support continued negotiations regarding a potential relocation of the Oregon-Idaho border to include Crook County,” according to a ballot summary reported by KTVZ.

    Also on Wednesday, the Wallowa County Clerk ruled that results on the Greater Idaho question on the ballot in that county were too close to require a recount, so the measure was deemed passed.

    Instead of county commissioners, some Oregon counties are overseen by a “county court” which consists of a judge and a pair of county commissioners. Seth Crawford is county judge of Crook County and he said the boundary vote is “100 percent” advisory.

    Crawford said he has always wanted “to have people weigh in” on the boundary question.

    The Greater Idaho website lists a half dozen reasons to join Idaho, including Oregon’s 1) violation of Amercan values by the state’s western majority; 2) lack of law and order plus infringement on the right to self-defense; 3) high taxes; 4) mismanagement of forests; 5) higher regulation, unemployment, and cost of living, and 6) lack of rural representation.

    With eastern Oregon moving to Idaho, it would improve things for western Oregon, the Greater Idaho website says.

    Since Oregon has no property tax, the substantial western Oregon income tax revenue would remain without the state having to continue to subsidize the east; legislative gridlock would be reduced; both remaining Oregon and Greater Idaho would have increased self-determination, and, with the change of only one-half electoral vote, the number of seats in the U.S. House and Senate would not change.

    It’s a long shot for Greater Idaho. But, as their website points out, border realignment has been done before.

    And elsewhere, rural areas of Illinois, New York and Colorado are hosting movements to carve out entirely new states removed from influences of large urban areas, according to The Center Square, a publication aimed at covering state governments.

    Given its distance from the state capital of Lansing and southern Michigan urban areas, the idea of the sparsely-populated Upper Peninsula of Michigan dividing into its own state of Superior has long been kicked around.

    And if Democrats get greater control of Congress, there is little doubt they will seek to retain that power by granting statehood to the District of Columbia and possibly Puerto Rico.

  12. Key Player in Biden Documents Removal Was Caught Up in Bill Clinton-Era Chinagate Scandal
    By Jim Hoft Jun. 10, 2023 9:20 am35 Comments

    By Paul Sperry, RealClearInvestigations
    June 8, 2023

    The custodian of Joe Biden’s vice presidential records, a key witness in his classified documents probe, was caught up in another documents scandal while working at the Commerce Department during the Clinton administration, court records reveal.

    Longtime Biden aide and gatekeeper Kathy S. Chung, who has been interviewed by federal prosecutors and congressional investigators in the Biden case, was part of a team sanctioned for withholding and even destroying key documents in the federal case that sought sensitive records from a central figure in the so-called Chinagate fundraising investigation of the late 1990s, RealClearInvestigations has learned exclusively.

    A special prosecutor is now investigating whether Biden unlawfully handled top secret materials in early 2017, when he tasked Chung with removing boxes containing classified documents from the White House and storing them at various private offices in D.C., including the Chinatown neighborhood. Some of the highly sensitive papers also ended up at his home in Wilmington, Del.

    Noting that Chung came into Biden’s orbit through working with the president’s son, Hunter, during the 1990s, congressional investigators want to know if the Biden family dealings in China have anything to do with the stockpiling of classified documents. They note that the mishandling of White House papers took place during the 14-month period in 2017-2018 when the Chinese were wiring almost $6 million in payments to Hunter and his uncle Jimmy Biden without providing any known legitimate services. They have expressed concern that the payments, which were flagged by the U.S. Treasury Department, were part of a Chinese intelligence-gathering operation.

    Chung is central to the Justice Department’s investigation of Biden’s breach of classified documents.

    On Jan. 4, federal agents interviewed Chung while working with an investigative team led by U.S. Attorney John Lausch, who was tasked to conduct a preliminary probe of the security breach. Alarmed by what his investigators reported back to him about Chung’s role in the possible illegal removal and retention of state secrets, Lausch urged Attorney General Merrick Garland to appoint a special counsel. The following day Garland complied, naming veteran federal prosecutor Robert K. Hur to take over the criminal case as special counsel. Hur’s office reportedly has obtained more than 100 pages of documents from Chung, including emails and text messages.

    While Donald Trump and Mike Pence are also under investigation for removing classified documents from the White House and storing them at their private residences, GOP congressional investigators say comparisons to Trump and Pence miss the point. In interviews with RCI, they insisted that Biden’s document scandal is potentially more serious than just mishandling state secrets. They suspect it could mushroom into a counterespionage case involving China and national security, though the White House dismisses such speculation as “baseless.”

    Chung’s lawyer Bill Taylor did not return a request for comment. But in an earlier statement, he scolded Republicans for “suggesting someone is a traitor without any evidence.”

    Chung’s dual role – as an aide to Joe Biden when he was vice president and a friend of Hunter Biden, who emails show received sensitive information from Chung from his father’s office – further highlights the murky ethics that exist between the Biden family’s public service and business interests.

    Hunter Biden and Chung have a long history dating back to their days working together at the Commerce Department during Bill Clinton’s presidency. It was there that Chung – a longtime Democrat working in the federal bureaucracy – became a witness in a case involving convicted Chinagate fundraiser Jian-Nan “John” Huang, who was a top Commerce official.

    In 1993, President Clinton named Huang, a China-born banker friend from Little Rock, deputy assistant secretary of international economic affairs at Commerce, where he was responsible for Asian trade matters. Within a month, Huang was given a top secret security clearance and received twice-weekly intelligence briefings by CIA analysts. At the same time, it was later revealed, he was meeting regularly with Chinese diplomats and other officials tied to Beijing.

    Watchdog group Judicial Watch sought documents concerning Huang’s access to trade secrets and his trips to China. Chung was one of the administrators responsible for producing such documents under the Freedom of Information Act.

    But the department was sanctioned for withholding and even destroying key documents in the federal case ‒ Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Commerce, et al ‒ in which Huang was listed as the lead defendant. After U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth ruled Commerce’s search “grossly inadequate” and “unlawful,” Chung and her superiors were ordered to conduct another search. Still, Chung came up short in producing Huang-related documents from the computer of her boss, Melissa Moss, in the Office of Business Liaison, according to her sworn declaration in the case, a copy of which was obtained by RCI. A Clinton appointee like Hunter Biden, Moss worked with Huang on controversial Asian and other foreign trade junkets for Democrat donors. She came to Commerce from the Democratic National Committee, where she had served as finance director.

    “In performing this search, I was assisted by an employee of the Computer Help Desk who informed me that some documents could not be opened,” Chung told the court in the 1999 affidavit, which was never uploaded to PACER, the electronic federal court records system. (After several requests to the court, Leayrohn King, a records clerk for the U.S. District Court for D.C., provided RCI a copy of Chung’s declaration and commented that it was odd that it was missing from PACER. The court has since made it available in the online docket system.)

    Chung, who now works as a top aide to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, was not directly accused of wrongdoing. But lawyers for Judicial Watch complained her department was covering up for Huang, whom they suspected was trading government secrets and access to China.

    While Chung remained at the Commerce Department, Huang left to work for the Clinton reelection effort. He raised almost $3 million for the DNC and Clinton in 1996, half of which was later found illegal or improper and returned because the donations came from foreign sources, many of them tied to Beijing.

    The Justice Department, through a specially appointed task force, investigated Huang as a possible “agent of influence” for China. In 1999, Huang pleaded guilty to a felony violation of campaign finance laws for arranging illegal foreign donations. Even though the felony charge carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison, he was sentenced to one year of probation and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in their investigation of several co-conspirators.

    After Hunter Biden left the Commerce Department in 2001, where he served as executive director of e-commerce policy, he joined a K Street law firm founded by William Oldaker, a major political donor of his father. Records obtained by RCI show lawyers for Oldaker, Biden & Belair LLP represented another boss of Chung at the Commerce Department in the ongoing FOIA case, which wasn’t settled until 2004.

    A decade later, Hunter recommended his father hire Chung as his personal assistant in the Office of Vice President, according to emails found on his abandoned laptop. Starting in July 2012, Chung was responsible for overseeing then-Vice President Biden’s office affairs, including handling his briefing books and scheduling his travel abroad. She handled the details for Hunter Biden’s controversial 2013 trip to Beijing with the vice president, during which Hunter met with Chinese investment partners and arranged for his father to shake one of their hands. Emails show Chung also invited Hunter to attend a 2015 lunch with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the State Department.

    In January 2017, as Biden moved out of the White House, Chung helped pack 13 boxes with files from his office cabinets and store them at a transition office nearby, according to a partial transcript of Chung’s recent deposition taken behind closed doors at the Capitol. Around July 2017, Chung reloaded the boxes in her car and moved them to a private office that she leased in the Chinatown neighborhood of Washington, before they ended up early the next year at the China-funded Penn Biden Center in D.C., according to the transcript.

    The boxes turned out to contain dozens of highly classified documents, including ones so secret they could only be viewed in a Sensitive Compartment Information Facility, or SCIF. Yet they were found last year in an unlocked storage room at the center that required no key to access. (The White House initially claimed, falsely, they were stored in a “locked closet.”) Prosecutors are investigating the chain of custody of those loosely stored intelligence papers to determine whether any were copied or passed through foreign hands.

    Chung, who held a Top Secret security clearance and had experience handling and identifying classified documents, told congressional investigators she was unaware the boxes contained classified material – even though some of the file folders in the boxes were emblazoned with cover sheets stating they contained secret government documents. She insisted she never noticed any classified papers or saw any classified markings, even though she unpacked the boxes when she relocated them to the center and then re-packed them last summer at the request of Biden’s lawyers.

    At least 20 highly classified papers marked at the Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information level were found at the center, which the FBI searched earlier this year. The materials reportedly covered Ukraine, Iran, and the United Kingdom, among other foreign countries.

    Chung helped Biden research his 2017 memoir, “Promise Me, Dad.” It’s not known if Biden or Chung referenced any of the materials from the boxes for his book, which was published in November 2017 and revealed insider accounts of Biden’s various roles in U.S. foreign policy, including Ukraine. Biden listed Chung first among people he acknowledged for their contributions: “Thank you for all of this, and more, to Kathy Chung.”

    Overlapping Scandals?
    Hunter first made contact with Chinese executives with CEFC China Energy, a suspected front for Chinese intelligence, in 2015. Emails found on Hunter’s abandoned laptop show a CEFC adviser arranged a private Washington dinner in December 2015 with Hunter and then-CEFC Chairman Ye Jianming, who reportedly has ties to the Chinese military.

    In an email Chung sent to Hunter Biden that same year, she included a list of personal cell phone numbers for high-profile Washington officials, including then-White House chief of staff Denis McDonough, then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and several Cabinet secretaries, as well as Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and a number of powerful senators and members of Congress.

    House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer speculated that Hunter may have been trying to “prove his worth to these people that were paying these enormous sums of money to him,” in part by “showing them he had cell numbers for powerful individuals.”

    Chung continued her dealings with Hunter Biden after she left the White House. On Feb. 2, 2017, shortly after Chung packed up Biden’s White House files, Hunter emailed Chung to ask her to “come work with me … so that I can make everyone money.” The next year, messages found on Hunter’s laptop show Chung sent Biden family members a link to an encrypted messaging app called Signal and urged them to install it on their electronic devices.

    Later in February 2017, Hunter received an $80,000 diamond from Ye, who left the rare gem with a thank-you note at Hunter’s hotel room after they met in Miami. In an interview with The New Yorker magazine, Hunter admitted taking the expensive stone, though he says he doubts it was meant as a bribe.

    Comer said he is investigating whether the Bidens’ Chinese partners “had access to the classified documents found.” He noted that Hunter Biden, in 2017, planned to share office space in D.C. with another one of his Chinese partners, Gongwen “Kevin” Dong, who was the CEFC money man who signed off on the wire payments to the Bidens.

    “This level of access and opportunity raises questions about who had access to the classified documents,” Comer said.

    In November 2017, another Biden partner from China ‒ CEFC’s Patrick Ho ‒ was arrested by FBI agents on charges of bribery and money laundering. According to federal documents obtained by RCI, the FBI raided CEFC’s D.C.-area offices shortly after Ho’s arrest and searched them for evidence. The FBI had been “electronically monitoring” Ho as a suspected Chinese spy under a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act wiretap warrant, the documents further reveal.

    Within months of learning his Chinese partner had been arrested, property records show Hunter terminated the lease on his own D.C. office and closed the facility, where he’d made keys for both Dong and his father, Joe Biden, according to emails found on his abandoned laptop. That same month – February 2018 – the former vice president opened a D.C. office for the China-funded Penn Biden Center, where Hunter maintained access.

    It’s not known if any White House records were stored at Hunter’s Georgetown office or transferred from there to the Penn Biden Center about four miles away. The center is hosted by the University of Pennsylvania, which has received several million dollars from anonymous Chinese sources since opening the center. But Hunter’s arrangement with his Chinese benefactors clearly raised counterintelligence alarms at the FBI, which began monitoring their communications. For whatever reason, the Bidens were never prosecuted as unregistered foreign agents and their own offices were never raided. Biden’s unauthorized removal and storage of classified intelligence went unnoticed – until after the 2022 congressional elections.

    Chung, who worked on Biden’s 2020 campaign, was grilled on Capitol Hill about her access to and handling of classified information in April. She gave sworn testimony to the House Oversight Committee for roughly four hours behind closed doors.

    Comer suggested earlier this year in a Fox News interview that his investigators were looking into possible ties between Chung and the Chinese Communist Party. Fox host Maria Bartiromo asked if Chung was “reporting back to the CCP about any of” the former vice president’s documents, and Comer replied, “We’re looking into that.”

    Added Comer, “We’re looking into at least three different people that Hunter Biden was directly involved with that have very close ties to the Chinese Communist Party.”

    Ties to Chinese Communists
    Comer noted that when Chung was in the White House, she fed Hunter Biden sensitive information on U.S. political leaders that he said Beijing would covet. In her April 4 interview with House Oversight investigators, Chung denied having a relationship with the CCP, according to excerpts of her testimony released by Democrats earlier this month.

    Chung also insisted she never shared classified information with anyone who wasn’t cleared to read it, which ostensibly would include Hunter Biden. Rep. Jamie Raskin, the ranking Democrat on the Oversight panel, said Comer was spreading falsehoods based on a “bigoted conspiracy theory.”

    House investigators want to know what the Chinese got for the massive payments they wired to President Biden’s son, brother, and several other family members. Were they using their contacts with the Bidens to gather U.S. intelligence? Were any White House records stored at Hunter’s Georgetown office, where his Chinese partners had access?

    In a recent letter to Hunter Biden, Comer requested, under threat of subpoena, that the president’s son provide any documents in his possession designated “classified” government property, along with any communications with Dong, Ho, Ye, and other CEFC officials. Separately, he has asked the University of Pennsylvania for a list of people who had keycard access to the Penn Biden Center. He also requested administrators turn over the visitor logs for the center.

    “It is imperative to understand whether any Biden family members or associates gained access to the classified documents while stored at the Penn Biden Center,” Comer said.

    According to emails found on Hunter’s laptop, Joe Biden was a silent partner in the CEFC deal that netted his son and brother millions. The documents show Hunter claiming that 10% of the Chinese payments were set aside for “the big guy.” Former partner Tony Bobulinski has confirmed that “the big guy” was Joe Biden.
    CEFC is the capitalist arm of Chinese President Xi’s “Belt and Road Initiative” to spread China’s influence around the world while gobbling up oil and gas rights. China has sought to influence powerful officials, particularly to gain access to U.S. energy markets, which are heavily regulated.

    Among the classified documents Biden reportedly had removed from the West Wing are sensitive compartmented briefings about Iran, where Beijing has been injecting billions of dollars in direct foreign investment to extract cheap oil.

    “It would be reasonable to suspect that Ye and his associates intended to use their contacts with Jim [Biden] and Hunter to gather intelligence” about such critical foreign countries, said Ben Schreckinger, author of “The Bidens: Inside the First Family’s Fifty-Year Rise to Power.”

    Bobulinski says the Chinese weren’t looking to make a “healthy” return on investment, but rather were partnering with the Bidens “as a political or influence investment.” He noted the CEFC partners were Chinese intelligence and understood the value of the Biden name.

    In a May 2017 email, Jimmy Biden provided Hunter, Bobulinski, and other partners a list of friendly American political contacts whom they could exploit to advance the proposed joint venture with their Chinese partners. Among the “key domestic contacts” were Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York; then-Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo; former Democratic Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe; and then-Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris of California, who would go on to become Biden’s vice president.

    Republicans have slammed Biden for being soft on China. When Beijing flew a giant spy balloon across the continental U.S. and collected highly sensitive data from U.S. military sites, Biden did not order Defense Secretary Austin to shoot down the spycraft for several days, and only after public outcry.

    In July 2021, Biden named his trusted aide Chung a top assistant to Austin, where she has access to sensitive Pentagon information. The Pentagon and White House declined to answer questions about the level of Chung’s access to classified military intelligence and the extent of her role in handling such material.

  13. Fastest Girl in Connecticut’ Sues the State After Losing to a Biological Male
    By Jim Hoft Jun. 10, 2023 9:40 am97 Comments

    The Gateway Pundit reported in 2020 that three female high school athletes had filed a federal lawsuit to prevent transgender students from competing in girls’ sports against them.

    The girls behind the lawsuit argue that the biological male students prevent them from obtaining track titles and scholarship opportunities.

    The girls are Selina Soule, a senior at Glastonbury High School, Chelsea Mitchell, a senior at Canton High School and Alanna Smith, a sophomore at Danbury High School. They are being assisted with their lawsuit by the conservative nonprofit Alliance Defending Freedom. The suit names the Connecticut Association of Schools-Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference and the boards of education in Bloomfield, Cromwell, Glastonbury, Canton and Danbury.

    However, in 2022, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against women and affirmed a policy allowing transgender students to compete on

    A woke female Tiktok user went viral after posting a video whining she cannot find a masculine man who is “not conservative” and got destroyed in the comments section.

    As the Daily Mail reported Thursday, Los Angeles-based TikTok user @ms_petch went on Tiktok last week and started venting to her 35,000+ followers about her hapless dating life.

    In her video, she wondered why she could not find liberal man who’s “willing to play the more traditional masculine role in the relationship.”

    She notes that the only manly men she has ever dated are conservative and this creates a dilemma for her.

  15. Trump to speak Saturday as he and allies escalate attacks on law enforcement
    Isaac Arnsdorf, Hannah Knowles – 2h ago

    COLUMBUS, Georgia — Donald Trump, the only former president to ever face criminal charges, will make his first public remarks Saturday since the release of a federal indictment accusing him of mishandling classified information, as he and his allies issue inflammatory calls to action and escalating attacks on law enforcement.

    Trump encouraged supporters to assemble on Tuesday in Miami, where he is scheduled to appear in court. “SEE YOU IN MIAMI ON TUESDAY!!!” he posted late Friday on his Truth Social platform. Specific plans for that day are still being developed, according to a Trump campaign aide.

    The former president did not elaborate on his message. His social media messages have in the past inspired his supporters to action. On Dec. 19, 2020, he tweeted, “Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!” Evidence presented by the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol showed that Trump’s tweet inspired extremist groups to plan to disrupt the certification of President Biden’s electoral victory. Leaders of the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys were later convicted of seditious conspiracy.

  19. Former Top Department of Justice Official Blows Up Jack Smith’s Case Against President Trump With One Tweet – Notices Key Item on Third Page of the Federal Indictment That Is “Grounds for Granting a Motion” to Dismiss
    By Cullen Linebarger Jun. 10, 2023 7:45 am389 Comments

    A former top Department of Justice official completely blew up Special Counsel Jack Smith’s inquisition against President Trump with one simple tweet on Friday. He claims there is a key piece of information in the indictment that is grounds for a quick dismissal.

    As TGP’s Cassandra MacDonald previously reported Trump announced on social media Thursday night that he had been informed he had been indicted in special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into his handling of classified documents.

    He will be arraigned in Miami on Tuesday. The Biden regime decided to indict Trump over having classified documents at the Mar-A-Lago.

    TGP’s Kristinn Taylor reported that the federal indictment against Trump was released Friday afternoon and revealed the charges the former president is facing. It shows 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information, maximum: 10 years in prison, $250,000 fine. Counts: 32, conspiracy to obstruct justice, max 20 yrs, $250K; 33, withholding a document or record, max 20 yrs, $250K; 34, corruptly concealing a document or record, max 20 yrs, $250K; 35, concealing a document in a federal investigation, max 20 yrs, $250K; 36, scheme to conceal, max 5 yrs, $250K; and 37, false statements and representations, max 5yrs, $250K.

    The indictment is 49 pages long. Trump faces a whopping 100 YEARS in prison if convicted of all charges and given the max on each one. This would mean he would die behind bars, which is what the Regime wants.

    As reported by the Associated Press, The indictment claims Trump showed off classified documents on two separate occasions to several individuals who did not have security clearances. Biden’s Department of Injustice say both supposed instances occurred at Trump’s club in Bedminster, New Jersey back in 2021.

    One of these alleged occasions was leaked to CNN last week.

    CNN “reported” on May 31 that federal prosecutors had “obtained an audio recording of a summer 2021 meeting in which former President Donald Trump acknowledges he held onto a classified Pentagon document about a potential attack on Iran.” The network claims this destroys Trump’s argument that he declassified everything.

    Jeffrey Clark, who served as an assistant attorney general in the Trump administration, says the leak is grounds for having the case tossed. Moreover, it proves Biden’s corrupt DOJ was the source of the leaks rather than Trump’s attorneys.

    The details regarding the recording of Bedminster call is in the sixth paragraph of page 3 of the indictment.

    Here are the relevant parts of the tweet:

    I’m beginning to read the indictment against Trump. But even three pages in, it’s clear that the leaks that preceded the indictment are far too close to what is actually being pleaded by DOJ to be a coincidence.

    For example, in paragraph 6a on page 3, we hear about the recording of the Bedminster call, which the MSNBC’s of the world have been beating a dead horse about for quite a while based on such leaks.

    This means that Trump lawyers could not possibly be the source of the leaks.

    Ergo, the leaks are coming from DOJ. They must be investigated and punished.

    Also, this is grounds for granting a motion highlighting jury pool poisoning and dismissing the indictment before it reaches even its one-month birthday.

    All of this is so outrageous; it shocks the conscience. It’s fundamentally anti-American.

  20. New York State Senate Democrats Approve Legislation for Low-Cost Health Care for Illegal Immigrants Following Federal Funding Agreement
    By Jim Hoft Jun. 10, 2023 10:40 am97 Comments

    The New York Senate Democrats have voted in favor of a bill to provide low-cost health care to illegal aliens residing in the crime-ridden state.

    The decision came after the federal government agreed to allocate funds for the initiative, alleviating concerns about the financial burden on the state, New York Post reported.

    Spearheaded by state Senate Health Committee Chair Gustavo Rivera (D-Bronx), the legislation garnered support on the chamber floor with a vote of 41-21. However, it still awaits approval from the Assembly before becoming law.

    “We are already spending over a billion dollars without giving any type of regular care to these folks,” said state Senate Health Committee Chair Gustavo Rivera.

    So these folks are already here. They get sick. They get flus They get colds. They break legs … What we’re suggesting here is that we have a way to get federal money so it does not cost the state anything.”

    Saturday morning en route to Georgia for the state Republican convention to deliver his first public remarks since he was indicted on federal charges.

    He gave a fist pump and a wave before boarding his plane.

    The Justice Department indicted Trump on federal charges on Thursday in Jack Smith’s classified documents case.

    Biden has no chance against Trump in 2024 so his DOJ got to work locking up his political opponent.

    Trump told his supporters he will plead not guilty at Tuesday’s arraignment in Miami.

    “I am an innocent man,” Trump said after he was informed he had been indicted by Biden’s DOJ.

    The DOJ indicted Donald Trump on Thursday on charges related to his handling of classified documents. Three days earlier the committee did a transcribed interview with Steven D’Antuono, the former assistant director in charge of the FBI’s Washington field office.

    D’Antuono, one of the most senior agents in charge’ of the raid told the committee he was frustrated the FBI was going to be left ‘holding the bag again’ with the August 2022 search of Mar-a-Lago.

  24. WATCH: President Trump Posts Brutal Meme On Truth Social Mocking Joe Biden Following Sham Federal Indictment
    By Cullen Linebarger Jun. 10, 2023 12:30 pm1 Comment

    President Trump has been righteously piqued at the Biden regime and “deranged” Special Counsel Jack Smith for indicting him on bogus charges. Earlier this morning, however, he decided to incorporate a little dark humor as well.

    TGP’s Cassandra MacDonald previously reported Trump announced on social media Thursday night that he had been informed he had been indicted in special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into his handling of classified documents.

    He will be arraigned in Miami on Tuesday. The Biden regime decided to indict Trump over having classified documents at the Mar-A-Lago.

Counts: 32, conspiracy to obstruct justice, max 20 yrs, $250K; 33, withholding a document or record, max 20 yrs, $250K; 34, corruptly concealing a document or record, max 20 yrs, $250K; 35, concealing a document in a federal investigation, max 20 yrs, $250K; 36, scheme to conceal, max 5 yrs, $250K; and 37, false statements and representations, max 5yrs, $250K.

    The indictment is 49 pages long. Trump faces a whopping 100 YEARS in prison if convicted of all charges and given the max on each one. This would mean he would die behind bars, which is what the Regime wants.

    The whole inquisition is a sham. As the Gateway Pundit reported, a former top Department of Justice official completely blew up Special Counsel Jack Smith’s inquisition against Trump with one simple tweet on Friday. He notes there is a key piece of information in the indictment that is grounds for a quick dismissal.

    The meme President Trump sent out this morning is a combination of him teeing off at a golf course and Biden’s massive fall at the Air Force Academy graduation ceremony last week.

    Trump hits a wild golf shot that smacks Biden in the head, causing him to collapse on stage.

    WATCH:

    While some would say President Trump was a week late mocking Biden’s fall, a more likely theory is that he’s sending a message to Biden for trying to lock him up.

    When Trump gets punched by his enemies, he responds by punching back ten times harder. The Regime better be worried.

    Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) told Steve Bannon on Tuesday that the US House of Representatives will be voting to hold Adam “Shifty” Schiff (D-CA) accountable for his despicable conduct during the garbage Trump-Russia “investigation.”

    Rep. Schiff, a Democrat, regularly lied openly in testimony and to the media about the “evidence” he had that President Trump was working with Russian President Vladimir Putin. This was all a lie and he knew it. Yet he kept repeating it over and over again.

    During an impeachment hearing announcement, Adam Schiff accused President Trump of cheating to win the 2016 election. Of course, saying this about the 2020 election will get you banned from social media and it will add years to your sentence if you are a J6 defendant!

    Iran Named Vice President of UN General Assembly After Securing Another Position to Promote Human Rights
    By Jim Hoft Jun. 10, 2023 12:50 pm0 Comments

    In a move that has left the international community abuzz, Iran, a country scrutinized for its stringent restrictions on civil liberties, has secured two critical positions within the United Nations.

    After assuming leadership in a U.N. forum on the promotion of human rights through technology, Iran has now been elected as Vice President of the General Assembly, solidifying its expanding influence within this key international body, JNS reported.

    Advocates of human rights are voicing concerns due to Iran’s track record of strict penalties for dissenting voices, which are based on its interpretation of Sharia law, an Islamic legal system. This contrasts with the forum’s stated mission of enhancing human rights through technology.

    Iran is one of the countries with the highest rates of executions in the world, according to several human rights organizations. Crimes punishable by death include murder, rape, drug trafficking, and, in some instances, economic crimes. Iran has also faced criticism for imposing the death penalty in cases of “blasphemy”, apostasy (renouncing Islam), and homosexuality, and for executing juvenile offenders. Some of the punishments include public executions, flogging, amputation, and stoning.

    Despite these controversies, Iran’s secured another position as the vice president of the General Assembly, which underscores its growing influence on the international stage.

    According to the UN General Assembly’s Rules of Procedure, the Vice President’s role is largely to support the President of the General Assembly. In the absence of the President, a Vice President can preside over sessions of the Assembly. The Vice Presidents do not have additional powers beyond those of a regular member of the General Assembly, except when presiding over a session in the absence of the President.

    Critics argue that Iran’s ascent to these roles contrasts the U.N.’s principles of ‘promoting peace, justice, human rights, and social progress.’ Iran’s history of civil rights violations should disqualify it from such positions of influence. They call for the U.N. to review its decision and hold Iran accountable for its human rights record.

    Israel’s Foreign Ministry called it a shameful decision,” according to JNS.

    “In addition to murdering its own citizens, attacking innocents around the world and racing towards a nuclear weapon with the goal of wiping Israel off the map, Iran will now serve in a senior U.N. position,” he added.

    The Gateway Pundit previously reported that communist North Korea, a regime notorious for starving its own people while investing heavily in nuclear weapons, has been elected to the Executive Board of the World Health Organization (WHO), a specialized agency of the UN.

    Reports said that Cuba and China had agreed to a new spy base on the island
    Adam Shaw By Adam Shaw , Tara Prindiville | Fox News

    The Biden administration on Saturday confirmed that China is working to increase its spying efforts in Cuba, calling it an “ongoing issue” that predates the current president, after officials initially said reports that Beijing had secured a deal to build a new spy base on the island 90 miles from the U.S. were inaccurate.

    This is an ongoing issue, and not a new development, and the arrangement as characterized in the reporting does not comport with our understanding,” an administration official told Fox News on Saturday.

    The Wall Street Journal first reported Thursday that China and Cuba have reached a secret agreement for China to establish an electronic eavesdropping facility on the island, allowing Chinese intelligence services to “scoop up electronic communications throughout the southeastern U.S., where many military bases are located, and monitor U.S. ship traffic.”

    Before the becoming engulfed in the controversy Target’s market value stood at over $74 billion, according to Dow Jones Market Data Group. Its market cap – calculated by multiplying the number of shares by the price per share – now sits at just $54 billion.

    And analysts say the damage could be permanent, with Walmart now soaking-up customers who’ve chosen to boycott Target in the wake of the scandal.

    Conservatives were already unhappy with Target’s Pride displays, which included controversial items such as ‘tuck-friendly’ women’s swimsuits. Those are designed for transgender women who still have penises.

    But they have now made a bad situation worse by enraging the LGBTQ community after the clothing displays were scaled back just ahead of Pride Month.

  29. Rudy Giuliani DROPS A BOMB on Newsmax: I Have a Witness, Former Chief Accountant of Burisma Willing to Give Up All the Offshore Bank Accounts, INCLUDING THE – HAS ACCESS TO A LOT MORE”
    By Jim Hoft Jun. 10, 2023 1:15 pm190 Comments

    Rudy Giuliani joined Rita Cosby on Newsmax on Saturday morning to discuss the latest Congressional investigations into the Biden Family Crimes.

    During the interview Rudy Giuliani DROPPED A BOMB!

    Rudy, who warned the American public about the Biden Family’s international pay for play scandals years ago, told Rita Cosby that he has a witness who is the former chief accountant at Burisma who is willing to testify on the Biden crimes. She even has the Biden bank account transactions. She has the receipts!

    Rudy Giuliani: It’s extraordinary. I gave them one witness that any investigator would jump through hoops to go to. Gave them a witness who is a woman who was the chief accountant at this crooked company, Burisma. She was the wife of the former owner who died under suspicious circumstances. And, she was willing to give up all of the offshore bank accounts, including the Bidens’ accounts. She supervised the transfer of a lot more cash to the Bidens and other crooked politicians for Burisma.

    Rita Cosby: Are you confident that now the House Committee is going to get to the bottom of that? Because that is stunning.

    Rudy Giuliani: The reality is that we gave it to them in January of 2020, and the Pittsburgh US attorney was very interested. And then in a very strange move, Barr took it away from him, gave it to the US attorney in Delaware. He didn’t do a damn thing about it. And the woman was under threat of death. So we tried to put pressure on them to do something. Look, suppose she was lying. You would find out in a minute she wouldn’t have the accounts. She either has the goods or she doesn’t. And it’s absurd not to interview her. She claims she had bank accounts and that the Biden’s got a lot more money under the table than already. We had $8 million on the table that we could prove, which they could prove tomorrow if they wanted to they could have proved it three years ago, Rita. They could have indicted him before he ran for president and obviated this problem. We could have found out if he was innocent or guilty in January of 2020. All the witnesses were there, and I have him on tape like Schokin. Schokin was willing to come and testify.

Ireland is even considering culling 200,000 cows to meet their climate change virtue signaling goals.

    But their climate change argument is patently false. Recent studies have shown growing meat in a lab is actually as much as 25-times worse for the environment than producing the same amount of real beef. Corporate media is barely reporting on it, but they’ve been forced to mention it

    As The Gateway Pundit reported in 2020, election fraud whistleblowers came forward in December following the controversial election, including one who witnessed the shipping of an estimated 144,000-288,000 completed ballots across three state lines on October 21.

    The information was made public at a press conference by the Amistad Project of the Thomas More Society, a national constitutional litigation organization.

    One of the prosecutors that aided the Obama administration to prosecute American government officials “without evident signs of espionage” was Jay Bratt.

    Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) weighed in on Donald Trump’s indictment, saying at the Western Conservative Summit on Friday, “We don’t have a republic anymore” if you can jail your political opponents.

    Hawley spoke at the summit, hosted by the Centennial Institute at Colorado Christian University, weighing in on the left’s increasing politicization of the federal government.

    He said that America is in a moment of great “danger,” contending that the decisions made in the next four to six years will determine the fate of the country for the next 50 to 60 years — or if America will even remain a country 50 or 60 years from now
