Democrat vice presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) would not deny that a Biden-Harris administration would attempt to pack the Supreme Court, despite being asked repeatedly by Vice President Mike Pence during Wednesday’s debate.“When you speak about the Supreme Court, I think the American people really deserve an answer, Senator Harris,” said Pence. “Are you and [Democrat presidential candidate] Joe Biden going to pack the court if Judge Amy Coney Barrett is confirmed?”“There have been twenty-nine vacancies on the Supreme Court during presidential election years from George Washington to Barack Obama;
During the vice-presidential debate on Wednesday, Vice President Mike Pence wiped the floor with Democratic nominee Joe Biden and his running mate, Kamala Harris, on the coronavirus pandemic. Pence began by noting that Trump did “what no other American president had ever done, he suspended all travel from China.”
“Joe Biden opposed that decision, he said it was xenophobic and hysterical,” the vice president continued. Indeed, Biden did oppose the ban. Yet the China travel ban “saved hundreds of thousands of American lives.”
Next, Pence hit Biden on plagiarizing Trump’s policy response to the pandemic.
The parents of Kayla Mueller, the young Christian woman kidnapped and slain by ISIS, attended the vice presidential debate on Wednesday as guests of Vice President Mike Pence, who mentioned their daughter’s ordeal during his face-off with Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA).After laying out what he characterized as President Donald Trump’s foreign policy successes, Pence brought up both ISIS as well as Carl and Marsha Mueller, saying, “When President Trump came into office, ISIS had captured an area of the Middle East the size of Pennsylvania. But President Trump unleashed the American military,
They were so worried about the coronavirus they didn’t consider pest control! A regular house fly became the unlikely star of Wednesday night’s lone vice presidential debate in Utah when it made a home of Vice President Mike Pence’s silver mane. Pence didn’t seem to notice the bug, which didn’t appear to move, just sitting there on his head for several minutes, as he debated his Democratic opponent Kamala Harris during the show-down in Salt Lake City. The black fly, which stood out starkly on Pence’s bright white coif, immediately generated buzz on Twitter, with pundits telling USA Today moderator Susan Page that the American people
During Wednesday’s vice presidential debate, 2020 Democratic vice presidential nominee Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) stated that if President Donald Trump tells us we should take a coronavirus vaccine, “I’m not taking it.” But she will take a vaccine if public health professionals like White House Coronavirus Task Force member Dr. Anthony Fauci say we should take it. Moderator Susan Page asked, “If the Trump administration approves a vaccine, before or after the election, should Americans take it, and would you take it?” Harris responded, “If the public health professionals, if Dr. Fauci, if the doctors tell us that we should take it, I’ll be the first
Vice President Mike Pence was asked during the debate by far left moderator Susan Page on a peaceful transfer of power.
This is a popular question on the left to attack President Trump and make him appear unhinged. Mike Pence KILLED IT!
Pence, in his mild and calm voice, explained how Democrats have NEVER allowed for the peaceful transfer of power since Hillary Clinton was defeated in 2016. VP Pence even brought up how Obama and Biden was spying on the Trump Campaign. Then Mike Pence went on to talk about the Russia hoax scandal and investigation and the Democrat impeachment probe
Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued an order on Wednesday that will allow bars and other entertainment establishments to re-open beginning on October 14. The order allows county judges to work with the Texas Alcoholic Beverages Commission to re-open, as long as they assist in enforcing health protocols.
In a video from the Office of the Texas Governor, Abbott announced protocols for re-opening bars and other entertainment facilities across the state to 50 percent capacity in areas of the state with “low #COVID19 hospitalizations.” Other entertainment facilities like amusement parks, movie theaters, zoos, aquariums, and bowling alleys may expand their capacities to 75 percent
In a bizarre move, celebrities, including Chris Rock, Tiffany Haddish, Amy Schumer, Josh Gad, Sarah Silverman, Mark Ruffalo, Chelsea Handler, Ryan Bathe, and Naomi Campbell, stripped “naked” for an election ballot explainer video warning against “naked ballots” in the upcoming election.
“There isn’t a man behind me, these are my hands,” said a naked Silverman in the video, holding her breasts. “To be honest, I wish I could cover my hands with my boobs, but here we are.”
“I know what you’re thinking, you’re thinking, ‘Ruffalo, put your clothes on,” added Ruffalo.

“Did you know that ballots could be naked?” asked Bathe.
In case America didn’t get the message during the Obamas eight years in the White House, former first lady Michelle Obama is above reproach. The mainstream media fawned over Mrs. Obama and went out of their way to ensure the country only saw her… ahem, best side. And when President Donald Trump dared to retweet a post mocking her, the reaction was swift. It all began with an over-the-top video Mrs. Obama released trying to spur her low information followers to vote. She called Trump a “racist” for talking about the rampant rioting that swept the country after the death of George Floyd.

CABIMAS, Venezuela — For the first time in a century, there are no rigs searching for oil in Venezuela.
Wells that once tapped the world’s largest crude reserves are abandoned or left to flare toxic gases that cast an orange glow over depressed oil towns.
Refineries that once processed oil for export are rusting hulks, leaking crude that blackens shorelines and coats the water in an oily sheen.
Fuel shortages have brought the country to a standstill. At gas stations, lines go on for miles.
Venezuela’s colossal oil sector, which shaped the country and the international energy market for a century, has come to a near halt,
Hundreds of Orthodox Jewish men gathered in the streets of Brooklyn, New York, lighting bonfires and defying orders to disperse, in protest of the state's new COVID-19 restrictions Tuesday night. The demonstrations came in response to Gov. Andrew Cuomo's decision to reinstate restrictions on public gatherings and to shutter schools and businesses in neighborhoods where COVID-19 cases are surging. The move aims to restrict capacity at houses of worship, schools and nonessential businesses in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19 in the state's rising hot spots. Many neighborhoods affected by the new restrictions are home to large populations

Two former Oklahoma jail workers and their supervisor are accused of cruelty for forcing inmates to listen to “Baby Shark” on repeat.
Five inmates were handcuffed to a wall and forced to listen to the children’s song on repeat at a loud volume for hours, the Oklahoman reported.
Court records obtained by the New York Times show that the alleged incidents occurred on at least five occasions in November and December, where each inmate would be placed into an empty attorney visitation room while handcuffed to the wall and forced to stand for as long as two hours.
“Baby Shark” was then played through a computer on an endless loop,

Ahead of the vice presidential debate scheduled for Wednesday night, President Donald Trump told the American people about new COVID therapeutics used on him that he’s ready to have authorized for emergency use to the public, emphasizing that he believes he was hit with the virus as a “blessing from God.” In the video message was posted to Trump’s Twitter account with the caption: “A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT!” In the message, POTUS said the American people should have access to the same sorts of treatments available to him — and he wants to make them free.
Republicans in Michigan are asking the state attorney general to probe a video showing an unlocked ballot box in the state.(Snip)Lansing City Clerk Chris Swope originally said the video, shared by the GOP, was taken before his office mailed any ballots to voters. He later said the video was taken before anyone from his office had come to double-check and secure the drop boxes and before anyone received a ballot by mail.(Snip)The GOP also released a second video of the same ballot box, where a member of the city clerk’s office is seen struggling with the lock.
President Donald Trump’s effort to block a New York grand jury subpoena for his tax returns has been rejected by a federal appeals court.
A three-judge panel for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit upheld the ruling of a lower court from August, rejecting Trump’s contention that Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr.’s subpoena was too broad and was issued in bad faith, arguing it may have been politically motivated.
Trump’s accounting firm, Mazars USA, was subpoenaed last year in an attempt to retrieve financial documents dating back to 2011, including the president’s personal and business tax returns.
President Donald Trump’s campaign team took aim at Democratic vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris, promising to have deceased rapper Tupac Shakur attend Wednesday’s debate. “I asked the Trump campaign who Vice President Mike Pence is bringing to tonight’s debate. A spokesperson responded: ‘Tupac.’ Happy Wednesday, everybody,” Sganga tweeted.(Snip)The campaign was trolling Harris, who said just last month that Tupac was the “greatest rapper alive.” The rapper was killed in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas in 1996.
Former CIA Director Michael Hayden on Tuesday called former acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell “an a–hole” for promoting a release of documents concerning a claim that Hillary Clinton strategically smeared President Trump as a Russian colluder in 2016.
Grenell, who led the intelligence community for three months this year, wrote on Twitter, “Proof. @BarackObama @JoeBiden directed their administration to use the powers of government to attack @realDonaldTrump campaign and then transition.”He added, “The Susan Rice email to herself after the Oval Office meeting was part of a coverup,” referring to the former White House national security adviser emailing herself to say then-President Obama wanted
New York City is becoming an economic basket case.
"'We're at war': New York City Faces a Financial Abyss," screams a New York Times headline.
New York City's unemployment rate stands at 16%, double the nation's average. Yet, even in the midst of a "financial abyss," the animosity of New York's liberal elite remains undeterred in its hostility toward free enterprise and entrepreneurship, the pillars of job creation and economic recovery.
Hakai Magazine, an online publication started by the Hakai Institute — an ecological observatory based in British Columbia — recently published an enchanting longform essay about Alaska’s St. Matthew Island. The island is the single most remote place in Alaska, a 138-square-mile formation of lichen-studded volcanic rocks located about halfway across the Bering Sea between the U.S. and Russia. Hakai sent writer Sarah Gilman and photographer Nathanial Wilder to St. Matthew on a ship called Tiĝlax̂,
President Trump was discharged from Walter Reed Medical Center a few days ago. His messaging during this unfolding drama first drew criticism from those who claimed he should have been more transparent about every detail, every step of the way. And the usual venomous bile and frenzied attacks came spewing from the the cackle of hyenas that is the White House press corps no less than #resistance goons like Ilhan Omar and Jennifer Rubin.
But why should they hold back? They have all but stated publicly that they want the president dead, lo these four long years. It would be dishonest of them at this point to wish him well.

Democrat Joe Biden made another cringeworthy gaffe after reportedly telling several young black women that he wants to see them dancing in four years. This ignited Twitter backlash from critics who said Biden was being “creepy” toward women again.
Biden made the statements after watching a traditional Haitian dance at the Little Haiti Cultural Center in Miami. “The good news is, for me, I’m here. The bad news for you is I’m coming back,” Biden said. He then pointed to several young girls and gushed: “I want to see these beautiful young ladies. I want to see them dancing when they’re four years older too.”
CNN Prime Time anchor Chris Cuomo coldly said on air Tuesday night he wants to violently hurt his critics at the Fox News Channel, saying he wants to put them in a “naked choke” hold and “punch them in the sternum.” (Photo) Cuomo was talking with Don Lemon during the change of programs at the 10 p.m. Eastern hour. Lemon was trying to explain away the lack of yard signs for Joe Biden compared to Trump signs being seen all around the country by saying that Biden supporters were ignoring President Trump.

A 28-year-old doctor who died fighting COVID-19 had been wearing the same mask at the Houston hospital where she worked for “weeks if not months” when she became infected with the illness, her family said. Dr. Adeline Fagan, who was from Syracuse, started experiencing symptoms while doing a rotation in July treating coronavirus patients at HCA Houston Healthcare West, the Guardian reported. It’s unclear how she became infected, but her family believes that her alleged lack of proper PPE likely played a role. “Adeline had an N95 mask and had her name written on it,” her sister, Maureen Fagan, told

The GOP, with 53 votes in the Senate, is more vulnerable to a takeover by the Democrats as there are 23 seats currently held by Republicans and only 12 by Democrats that will be decided in November. Thus a GOP win for a seat currently held by a Democrat would be a huge boost to the GOP’s chances of retaining the Senate.Thus Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is pouring $5.4 million in one week, reportedly the most that Schumer’s Senate Majority PAC is spending in any race, to support incumbent Michigan Senator Gary Peters in his race against GOP candidate John James.James, 39, an Army veteran,

The upcoming vice-presidential debate will be dramatically different than the first presidential debate.
The first presidential debate was a fast-moving clash of personalities – with a lot of clutter and confusion.
The vice-presidential debate can move more slowly and be more informative in clarifying the difference between the two tickets.
The contrast between Vice President Mike Pence’s Indiana conservatism and Sen. Kamala Harris’s San Francisco radicalism is so great that this should be a debate focused on issues far more than personalities. The stage is set for a truly historic encounter.Vice President Pence believes in the historic America of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and American history.
A postal employee in New Jersey dumped more than 1,800 pieces of mail, including 99 ballots for the upcoming election, that were intended for households in heavily Democratic areas, federal prosecutors said Wednesday.
Nicholas Beauchene, 26, of Kearny, faced arraignment later on Wednesday in federal court in Newark on charges of delay, secretion or detention of mail and obstruction of mail. If convicted of delay of mail, he faces up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.(Snip) The approximately 1,875 pieces of discarded mail was recovered from trash dumpsters in North Arlington and West Orange on Friday and Monday, prosecutors said.

But the polls are showing that Biden is ahead in key swing states. It’s very encouraging in many ways, Pennsylvania, et cetera, but I’m still worried that they could steal this election. I know that the Russians are still involved. Trump’s own Department of Homeland Security just released a report warning that Russia is a key threat to the election.

In a misleading video Tuesday urging Americans to vote for former Vice President Joe Biden, Michelle Obama continued the left’s false narrative about Black Lives Matter, saying the movement is based on “racial solidarity” and has been “mostly peaceful.”
Concerning the riots that overtook many of America’s cities beginning at the end of May, Obama said President Donald Trump has pinned the violence “on what’s been an overwhelmingly peaceful movement for racial solidarity. It’s true,” the former first lady said in the video, fraught with divisive language and hyperbole. “Research backs it up. Only a tiny fraction of demonstrations have had any violence at all.”
President Trump announced on Twitter that he was shutting down stimulus talks with Democrats until after the election because they were “not negotiating in good faith.” “Pelosi is asking for $2.4 Trillion Dollars to bailout poorly run, high crime, Democrat States, money that is in no way related to COVID-19,” wrote Trump.
The president continued: “Immediately after I win, we will pass a major Stimulus Bill that focuses on hardworking Americans and Small Business.” Instead, Trump is asking Sen. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to focus on the Amy Coney Barrett Supreme Court nomination in the month before the election.

CIA Director John Brennan personally briefed former President Barack Obama on Russia’s knowledge of Hillary Clinton’s “plan” to smear then-candidate Donald Trump as a Russian stooge during the 2016 presidential election, newly declassified documents reveal.
Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe on Tuesday declassified Brennan’s handwritten notes from the briefing, as well as a CIA memo revealing that officials referred the matter to the FBI for potential investigative action. That referral was sent to then-FBI Director James Comey and then-Deputy Assistant Director of Counterintelligence Peter Strzok.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday that he could work with Joe Biden in a new administration, citing common ground he shared with the Democrats over a shared embrace of Soviet ideology.
Bloomberg News reported that while Putin praised President Donald Trump for improving relations, he was prepared to work with Biden if he won the U.S. election.
He cited Biden’s support for new arms reduction treaties — such as the lopsided New START under President Barack Obama.
Putin added, approvingly, that Biden’s Democrats shared similar ideals to those Russia embraced under Soviet communism:

Meet the unlikeliest oppressed black woman...ever.
If being black is such a disadvantage in a "systemically racist" America, why are so many white people — particularly professors — getting caught posing as African-Americans? Back in the day when white racism was real and open, African-Americans with light skin were known to try to "pass" as white, a heartbreaking situation that revealed the existence of genuine systemic racism. The 1949 movie Pinky, directed by directorial giants Elia Kazan and (uncredited) John Ford, is a tragedy that illustrates the human toll of the racism of that bygone era.

Joe Biden’s wife had to pull the Democratic presidential nominee away from reporters on the campaign trail to maintain social distancing, but that didn’t prevent one of his signature eyebrow-raising comments at an event later in the afternoon.While speaking to reporters Monday outside the Biden campaign’s jet, the former vice president was filmed standing closer than the CDC-recommended six feet apart from the press.Biden was asked a question by a reporter when his better half came up behind him and pulled him back a couple of steps.“I’m sorry,” Biden said as he was shuffled backward, regaining his thoughts.

They revealed that Obama knew almost from the beginning that "Russian collusion" was a hoax, while the media's current cover-up of the newly released documents shows that
Growing signs that the anti-Trump left in the Democratic Party is gearing up to make this one of the most fraudulent elections in our nation’s history bear close watching. Illegitimate votes should never be allowed to sway a presidential election, especially true for one whose outcome might well decide the future of our republic.
With the clock ticking down to Election Day, it was heartening to see that the Supreme Court on Monday stepped in to stop questionable changes made to South Carolina’s absentee-voting laws mere weeks before the election. Such on-the-fly tinkering by state or local election officials or

Don’t worry, Democrats. The local Democrat Party communications guy who was caught in photos and video threatening and intimidating the women of “Oregon Women for Trump” with a knife on Sunday is just fine. He’s out of jail and everything, as you would expect in the second largest county in the People’s Republic. So don’t worry. This is Oregon, and – quick look…here’s a white supremacist over there! – so this whole episode will go down the collective media memory hole in no time, just like that Hispanic “white supremacist” murdered by antifa. Or at least that’s the fear being expressed by the Oregon Women for Trump,

after relief talks fall apart replies
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi pondered out loud whether President Trump’s use of an anti-inflammatory drug “was impacting his thinking” after the abrupt halt of negotiations over the next coronavirus stimulus bill, according to reports.
Pelosi questioned whether dexamethasone, a steroid used for treating some COVID-19 patients, had affected the president’s thought process as he recovers from his illness, during a Democratic call Tuesday, according to CNN’s Manu Raju, who cited two people on the line.
The drug’s potential side effects can include vertigo, psychic disorders and mood swings, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
What should have been a purely scientific response aimed at control and cure of a disease quickly evolved into the political-religious cult of Covidism. Objective scientific analysis of and responses to what is the contagious pathogen COVID-19 were almost immediately suffocated by a plethora of arbitrary pseudo-religious rituals.
The capitulation of the churches to rituals radically modifying and even antagonistic to Christian rites may be because the Church, continually rent by internal crises and scandals, did not recognize the rival religion when it appeared.
The uproar over the president’s COVID-19 diagnosis made one thing abundantly and terrifyingly clear: Coronavirus hysteria is here to stay—and there are signs it might be getting worse seven months after we first confronted the unknown disease.
Rather than accept that nearly all the early advice dispensed by self-proclaimed “experts” was not just wrong but resulted in devastating consequences that will impact the country for years to come, lots of Americans—including the entire news industry and leaders of both political parties—are endorsing more punitive government decrees to “stop” a virus that poses almost no serious health threat to the overwhelming majority of Americans.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo urged key allies to take “more concrete steps” to counter threats from the Chinese Communist Party, in a rare gathering of the most powerful Indo-Pacific democracies.
“It is more critical now than ever that we collaborate to protect our people and partners from the CCP’s exploitation, corruption, and coercion,” Pompeo told envoys from Australia, India, and Japan during a meeting in Tokyo. “I’m looking forward to our meetings and to more concrete steps with the Quad going forward.”
That expectation likely will stoke China’s suspicions that the four-nation bloc is forming a “mini-NATO” security bloc, despite American statements downplaying that idea.
The Unborkable Amy Coney Barrett
replies
It is a mark of how dirty Senate Democrats have played over the past four years that they and their allies have been so little criticized for their treatment of Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett.
Certainly, they've floated allegations intended to sully her religious faith and fellowship from an unreliable and erratic source and boosted charges from America's preeminent race huckster that her adoption of two children from Haiti is racist. But those claims are not so bad, at least compared with the absurd allegations of teenage gang-rape they directed at Justice Brett Kavanaugh in the most recent confirmation scuffle.
Former First Lady Michelle Obama is out with a new campaign video for Joe Biden. In it, she accuses President Trump and his followers of racism for daring to discuss and combat violent riots in Democrat cities across the country. (Snip for tweet)"Only a tiny fraction of demonstrations have had any violence at all."
Really?
Let's take a look at the data Mrs. Obama is likely referring to. A study by Princeton University found 570 Black Lives Matter led "protests" turned into violent riots.
Antifa’s profile is rising so quickly that it even got name-checked at last week’s presidential debate.
As the movement enters the mainstream, its sympathizers are escalating the violence from throwing rocks and blocking doors to physical assaults and, for the first time, killing.
The rising level of violence from the group marks a sinister evolution from minor street crime to guerrilla tactics usually reserved for revolutionaries. “The fear is that we are witnessing the beginning of something that could be more violent over time,” said Michael Kenney, a University of Pittsburgh professor who has interviewed Antifa sympathizers.
There are many reasons to take issue with Peter Beinart’s provocative New York Times piece calling for “international intervention” in the aftermath of the November election. One important question, though, stands out: Just who, according to Beinart, should do the intervening? To certify that the election was conducted fairly, he writes:
Democrats should spend the coming weeks working to ensure that this year’s O.S.C.E. observer mission — despite being banned from many states, especially in the Deep South — can do exactly that. Then, if Mr. Trump and his allies halt the counting of ballots, or disregard them altogether,
Wendy Davis and Chip Roy agreed on one thing at the first and maybe only debate of their marquee congressional contest Tuesday night: the other candidate holds views that are dangerous.
“As anyone can see from photos from Congressman Roy’s own social media feed as recently as yesterday, he refuses to take basic safety precautions, such as consistently wearing a mask and social distancing,” said Davis, an Austin Democrat seeking to deprive Roy of a second term representing the 21st Congressional District, which runs from Austin to San Antonio and includes six Hill Country counties.

Sending a Major U.S. Enemy a Huge Pile of Cash replies
Joe Biden has been in office practically forever—literally about one-fifth of the lift of our republic. He’s seen it all: wars and hostage-takings, allies flipping to become enemies and vice versa. So there’s really no excuse for the dangerously hair-brained idea Joe Biden proposed in late 2001 as America reeled from the 9-11 attacks.
It’s almost impossible to imagine it now, but in the weeks after 9-11, the United States was a more unified place than it is at present. We had been attacked on our own soil. The Bush 43 administration was less than a year old and dealing with one of the most shocking and profound challenges
Last week, Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe declassified information to the effect that U.S. intelligence agencies “obtained insight into Russian intelligence analysis alleging that U.S. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton had approved a campaign plan to stir up a scandal against U.S. Presidential candidate Donald Trump by tying him to Putin and the Russians’ hacking of the Democratic National Committee.” Ratcliffe also indicated at that time that CIA Director John Brennan briefed President Obama and others on the intelligence. Today Ratcliffe declassified documents relating to last week’s communication, including handwritten notes by John Brennan.
The problem with confronting the entertainment industry’s progressive toxicity is that Hollywood is the super-spreader, not the source, and too many people are already sick. For instance, the Left’s reaction to President Trump’s China virus convalescence has been so psychotic as to be unprecedented in modern American history. Any semblance of class, perspective, and patriotism has gone with Gone with the Wind, banished, as usual, by media madwomen blasting even the hospital that cured him.

The legendary Van Halen guitarist, who died Tuesday after a long battle with throat cancer at age 65, will forever live on through solos like “Eruption” and his raging riffs in songs like “Jump” and “Panama” amongst many others. (And don’t forget that’s him on Michael Jackson’s iconic “Beat It.”)
The Recording Academy honored the guitar great, calling the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer a “genius” and a “true guitar hero.”
Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and Sen. Ted Cruz engaged in a heated debate over Twitter on Tuesday as the latest numbers showed another dip in ratings for Game 3 of the NBA Finals.
Friday’s Game 2 of the series between the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat was watched by 6.07 million viewers, a drop from last year’s Game 2 Finals and from this year’s Game 1 (7.41 million). Game 3 ratings fell again to 5.94 million viewers, marking the least watched NBA Finals game on record, according to Sports Media Watch. While a number of reasons could have played into the dip, including the unusual timing
President Trump announced Tuesday evening that he has “fully authorized the total Declassification of any & all documents" related to the Russia investigation led by Special Counsel Robert Mueller and the investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server surrounding a 2012 attack that occurred in Benghazi that took the lives of four Americans. According to biannual reports released by the special counsel’s office, Mueller and his team spent $12.3 million in direct spending between his appointment on May 17, 2017 and Sept. 30, 2018.

Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn said the American people deserve to know the truth about the FBI’s unscrupulous investigation into President Donald Trump’s campaign and his presidency. Blackburn, a Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the answers to what really happened during the investigation and those senior bureau officials involved may reside with former Deputy Directory Andrew McCabe. McCabe, who is now an analyst on CNN, was fired by former Attorney General Jeff Sessions in 2018 for lying multiple times to DOJ investigators.
President Trump's announcement on Twitter Tuesday that he had fully authorized the declassification of all documents related to the Russia investigation is bad news for Hillary Clinton, Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett told "Hannity" Tuesday. “It demonstrates just how immoral, unscrupulous, devious and corrupt Hillary Clinton was,” Jarrett said. Earlier Tuesday, Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe declassified documents revealing that then-CIA Director John Brennan briefed President Obama in 2016 on Hillary Clinton’s “plan” to stir up a scandal tying then-candidate Donald Trump to Russia and distracting from the controversy over her private email server.
President Trump on Tuesday night said he’s willing to pass several independent coronavirus relief measures — including a new round of stimulus checks — hours after pushing for a pause in negotiations on a new aid package.“If I am sent a Stand Alone Bill for Stimulus Checks ($1,200), they will go out to our great people IMMEDIATELY. I am ready to sign right now. Are you listening Nancy?” Trump tweeted.“The House & Senate should IMMEDIATELY Approve 25 Billion Dollars for Airline Payroll Support, & 135 Billion Dollars for Paycheck Protection Program for Small Business. Both of these will be fully paid for with unused funds from the Cares Act.
Supporters of President Trump erected a giant 10-foot Hollywood-like sign along Interstate 405 in Los Angeles on Tuesday, only for it to be torn down by a city crew within hours.(Tweet/Video) KTLA reported the sign, estimated to be ten feet high, was facing northbound traffic near Getty Center Drive in the Sepulveda Pass. The sign — which appeared to be a significant distance from the roadway — was deemed a “traffic hazard” by the California Highway Patrol.“The sign had been placed in an area with dry brush, and the reporting party was apparently concerned it could spark a blaze,” the news station reported the police incident log stated.Here’s another angle:
The Department of Justice is holding a virtual press conference on a matter of national security. FBI Director Chris Wray and Assistant Attorney General John C.

NBC News portrayed voters as being “undecided” during a town hall event for Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden last night, but some of them had already declared their support for Biden on the network’s sister channel, MSNBC. “Lawyer Peter Gonzalez and marketing executive Ismael Llano posed questions to Biden during a town hall on Monday, when he appeared before what the network described as an ‘audience of undecided Florida voters,'” The Washington Free Beacon reported. “Both Gonzalez and Llano, however, were featured in an MSNBC segment in August to explain why they support Biden.” The Free Beacon’s report showcased a third voter who had also indicated
