James Comer (R-KY) held a hearing with IRS whistleblowers on Wednesday. Two IRS whistleblowers, Gary Shapley, and Joseph Ziegler, testified on the government prosecutors’ preferential treatment of Hunter Biden. Gary Shapley said Biden-appointed US Attorneys blocked charges against Hunter Biden. Shapley’s testimony lines up with what whistleblower X, identified as Joseph Ziegler, said on Wednesday. IRS Whistleblower X - revealed as gay Democrat Joe Ziegler - compares coming forward in Hunter case to 'coming out' replies Daily Mail (UK), by Katelyn Caralle Original Article Posted by Imright — 7/19/2023 4:26:38 PM Post Reply The mystery surrounding the identity of Whistleblower X ended Wednesday when Joseph Ziegler, who has worked with the IRS since 2010, appeared before Congress to claim that Hunter Biden received preferential treatment in the investigation into his financial dealings. At the same time, a pre-recorded interview with Ziegler was released in which he said that anytime the IRS tried to look into President Joe Biden, agents were told 'we can't ask those questions.' Ahead of his appearance, the name plate 'Mr. Ziegler' was placed at the witness table next to whistleblower and IRS Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley's spot. In his testimony to the Oversight Committee on Wednesday, Ziegler identified himself Exclusive – MTG on White House Cocaine Scandal: ‘First Family Should Submit to Drug Test’ replies Breitbart Politics, by Katherine Hamilton Original Article Posted by Imright — 7/19/2023 4:14:58 PM Post Reply Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) called on President Joe Biden and his family to submit to drug testing after cocaine was found in the West Wing of the White House in early July. The Secret Service closed its investigation last week into who left cocaine in a cubbyhole in the West Wing, the agency stating that it was “not able” to “single out a person of interest” because of a lack of physical evidence. However, a security source has contradicted the Secret Service, telling Soldier of Fortune magazine White House officials have confirmed who brought cocaine into the White House via fingerprint analysis.

GOP senators are rattled by a radical conservative populism that is taking rhetoric beyond mere talking points to its logical conclusions. Well, Biden Screwed Us Forever On Another Damn Thing replies PJ Media, by Stephen Green Original Article Posted by Hazymac — 7/19/2023 3:41:51 PM Post Reply I was thinking of Presidentish Joe Biden on Sunday when I was filling my Jeep’s smallish 15-gallon gas tank to the tune of $50 when it still had a couple of gallons left. Remember (because maybe he doesn’t) when Biden was emptying our Strategic Petroleum Reserve to force down gas prices in time for the midterms, promising to fill’er back up once prices dropped low enough? Yeah, about that. The SPR is probably never going to be refilled, according to one expert, and maybe not even for the reason that first popped into your mind. Let me set the stage for today’s big reveal. ‘Democrat’ Hunter Biden whistleblower Joseph Ziegler comes forward replies New York Post, by Steven Nelson Original Article Posted by Beardo — 7/19/2023 3:38:50 PM Post Reply IRS agent Joseph Ziegler stepped forward Wednesday as the second whistleblower alleging a coverup in the criminal investigation of President Biden’s son Hunter — calling himself a Democrat who wanted “to do what is right.” (snip) “I was the lead IRS case agent on the Hunter Biden investigation. I recently discovered that people are saying that I must be more credible because I’m a Democrat who happens to be married to a man,” Ziegler said. “I’m no more credible than this man sitting next to me due to my sexual orientation or my political beliefs." Fast Car in Age of Stupid replies Power Line, by Scott Johnson Original Article Posted by Hazymac — 7/19/2023 3:33:05 PM Post Reply Country artist Luke Combs has returned Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car” to the radio. It was an unforgettable hit of ginormous proportions in 1988 and Combs’s respectful cover follows Chapman’s original right down to the female sex of the narrator. Combs’s cover has reached No. 2 in the Billboard Hot 100. When Combs’s cover reached number 1 in country airplay, Billboard asked Chapman for a comment. She responded about as you might expect: “I never expected to find myself on the country charts, but I’m honored to be there. I’m happy for Luke and his success and grateful that new fans have found and embraced ‘Fast Car.’” Israel's Herzog sharply addresses criticism from House members after Squad member's remarks replies Fox News, by Anders Hagstrom Original Article Posted by Moritz55 — 7/19/2023 3:24:35 PM Post Reply Israeli President Isaac Herzog gave a thinly veiled rebuke to members of the House of Representatives for their attacks on Israel during his speech Wednesday at a joint session of Congress. Herzog did not name names, but he referenced criticism of Israel from House members. More than one progressive Democrat recently vilified the Jewish state in public statements. "Mr. Speaker, I am not oblivious to criticism among friends, including some expressed by respected members of this House. I respect criticism, especially from friends, although one does not always have to accept it," Herzog said.

Stoddard Original Article Posted by Moritz55 — 7/19/2023 2:27:52 PM Post Reply Wow, big news broke Tuesday – President Biden’s campaign is officially going to be headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware. For months nervous Democrats have wondered why Biden only had four full-time staffers devoted to his reelection effort and why the campaign wasn’t yet located anywhere. This development will do absolutely nothing, however, to stop the panic within the party that Biden is too old to run for reelection and could easily lose to former President Donald Trump. Sorry, Team Biden, these fears will not be put to rest; they are going to persist and grow.

The Gateway Pundit shared multiple videos showing surveillance footage that shocked Michigan residents and people across the United States, who believed they were likely watching mass-organized voter fraud take place on camera. Curiously, MI AG Dana Nessel and Michigan’s Soros-funded SOS Jocelyn Benson didn’t feel compelled to investigate any of the videos that went viral after the Gateway Pundit made them public.

How would you do that? If your name is Merrick Garland, the answer is a two-fold plan of attack. On one hand, you give the corrupt son of your boss every possible break, bend the rules to protect him and hand him a get-out-of-jail-free pass. The sweetheart deal also serves another purpose. Because you definitely don’t want anyone to know to what extent your boss was involved in the family’s influence-peddling schemes, the son’s guilty plea to fairly minor crimes slams the door Joe Biden’s Crayola Army replies American Thinker, by A.J. Rice Original Article Posted by mc squared — 7/19/2023 11:14:58 AM Post Reply The U.S. military used to be everything that Thomas Jefferson -- and Martin Luther King, Jr. -- thought America ought to be. That George S. Patton -- arguably one of America's greatest generals -- demanded it be. A meritocracy -- in which people rose according to their talents and initiative. As opposed to having privileged status on account of some other consideration, such as family name or wealth. Or skin color. Or sex.

Empty suit, empty suites: Joe Biden's government of empty buildings replies American Thinker, by Monica Showalter Original Article Posted by DVC — 7/19/2023 10:48:29 AM Post Reply We often ask who's running the government with a White House led by doddering Joe Biden. But with a new audit out, maybe the real question is what is the government. According to the Washington Examiner: The evacuation of federal headquarters during the COVID-19 crisis appears to have become permanent and costly with up to 90% of several agency headquarters empty, according to a federal audit. At least 6 of 24 Washington area headquarters are 90% empty, including several that manage federal office space and employees such as the General Services Administration and the Office of Personnel Management. Biden Administration Halts Wuhan Institute Funds over Failure to Provide Safety, Security Documents replies National Review, by Brittany Bernstein Original Article Posted by Dreadnought — 7/19/2023 10:17:36 AM Post Reply The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has suspended the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s eligibility to receive federal funding after the lab failed to turn in requested documents about safety and security measures. HHS issued a memo on Monday notifying the lab of its decision and warning that it is also seeking to permanently blacklist the lab from receiving future taxpayer funds. The lab hasn’t received funds from the National Institutes of Health since July 2020. The lab can challenge the suspension and proposed debarment. The move comes after the agency found in a review that began last September that the facility was not compliant Travis King faced assault allegations, damaged police car before running to North Korea replies New York Post, by Olivia Land Original Article Posted by NorthernDog — 7/19/2023 10:17:30 AM Post Reply The US soldier who ran across the border into North Korea Tuesday was facing multiple assault allegations as well as a fine for damaging a police vehicle. Army Private 2nd Class Travis King, 23, was accused of punching a man several times in the face at a club on September 25 last year, Seoul court records indicate. Two weeks later, on October 8, Korean authorities responded to another dust-up involving King, who was allegedly displaying “aggressive behavior,” according to the court documents. When police put him in the backseat of the patrol car, King reportedly spouted expletives and insults aimed Trump Doesn’t Need to Unite the Republican Party to Win the Election replies American Thinker, by Matt Kane Original Article Posted by JoElla Bee — 7/19/2023 9:21:16 AM Post Reply President Trump has a quasi-incumbency advantage for the Republican nomination, but there is much chatter about how he can officially seal the deal on his third primary victory. However, one thing he does not have to do is “unite” the party, at least not in the way some believe.(snip) even with the un-united narrative gaining mainstream (Fox News) attention, there are actually far more Republicans in government positions who have endorsed Trump than there are those who have endorsed a different candidate, further debunking claims of widespread Republican disunity. You have no choice but Trump replies Substack, by Don Surber Original Article Posted by Judy W. — 7/19/2023 9:21:05 AM Post Reply A year ago, Matt K. Lewis, a Senior Columnist at the Daily Beast, did a column of concern trolling called, “‘Anybody but Trump’ Is the Only Way Forward for the GOP.” Lewis wrote, “The GOP’s never been closer to moving on from Donald Trump. “The Jan 6. Committee hearings, coupled with Trump’s mixed record of midterm primary endorsements, have left the 45th president bloodied and bruised even in the eyes of loyal Republican voters. And that’s generating speculation that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis may eventually supplant Trump as the party’s standard bearer.” (Snip) The second question is this: Is Donald Trump a uniquely dangerous person? Trump, Biden Still Hold Big Leads, But Can They Last? I&I/TIPP Poll replies Issues & Insights, by The Editorial Board Original Article Posted by RockyTCB — 7/19/2023 9:15:55 AM Post Reply Both of the leading candidates for president in 2024 have come under intense scrutiny and political pressure in recent weeks, but it hasn’t dimmed their prospects much. Both President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump maintain solid leads against their main party rivals, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. The big question is, can it last? In the national online poll of 616 Democrats, taken July 5-7 and having a +/-4 percentage point margin of error, we once again asked the party faithful the following question: “If the Democratic presidential primary were held today, whom would you support for the nomination?” America First Legal Sues DOJ for Failing to Require Hunter Biden Register as Foreign Agent replies Breitbart Politics, by Wendell Husebø Original Article Posted by Imright — 7/19/2023 9:00:25 AM Post Reply America First Legal (AFL) announced a lawsuit against the Justice Department and Attorney General Merrick Garland over their failure to require Hunter Biden to register as a foreign agent.

Shurk Original Article Posted by Magnante — 7/19/2023 5:27:21 AM Post Reply Lisa Murkowski is the perfect mascot for Senate Republicans. She is a Democrat in all but name, an aristocrat who inherited her office, and a beneficiary of rigged elections. She has more in common with Nancy Pelosi than the average Republican voter, and every time Alaskan Republicans attempt to throw her out of office, Mitch McConnell's minions manipulate the rules to save her. For McConnell, Murkowski is another beholden senator kept securely in his pocket who will vote how he wants on any given day. Trump slams 'deranged prosecutor' Jack Smith and defends handling of classified information on the day his aide Walt Nauta appears in court and judge signals that she may delay his documents trial into 2024 replies Daily Mail (UK), by Rob Crilly Original Article Posted by Imright — 7/19/2023 5:08:12 AM Post Reply Former President Donald Trump went on the attack on Tuesday evening, slamming the 'deranged prosecutor' who is threatening a new set of charges related to the 2020 elections and who has already charged him over the handling of classified documents. It came as the federal judge overseeing the documents case in Florida signaled she could delay the trial until 2024 after hearing from the former president's lawyers that they needed more time to prepare for such complex legal proceedings. Judge Aileen Cannon told Trump's team to set out a concrete timetable for her, but added that she understood they needed more time to review evidence.
