President Joe Biden delivered his first address to a joint meeting of Congress Wednesday night as he pitched his economic plan took a dig at Wall Street and invoked the Jan. 6th riot to level criticism at former President Donald Trump.Speaking to a slice of lawmakers that reflected the growing muscle of the progressive wing of his own party, Biden said there were 'good guys and women on Wall Street – but Wall Street didn't build this country. The middle class built the country. And unions built the middle class.' 'Look, I’m not out to punish anyone. But I will not add to the tax burden
Joy Behar claimed Wednesday that most news outlets — with the exceptions of Fox News and MSNBC — are “basically balanced.”Behar joined a discussion on ABC’s “The View” about recent corrections on Fox News — on reports of Vice President Kamala Harris’ book being distributed at the U.S.-Mexico border and that President Joe Biden planned to limit red meat consumption — and argued that because there were both liberals and conservatives on all of the major outlets, they were effectively balanced.

The New York Times on Wednesday was forced to answer to Project Veritas’s defamation lawsuit.Project Veritas sued The New York Times for defamation in November 2020. As previously reported, the points of contention involve several defamatory and untrue statements made by New York Times writers Maggie Astor and Tiffany Hsu in their stories about the Project Veritas videos out of Minnesota involving a ballot harvesting scandal.

President Joe Biden will use his first address to Congress Wednesday evening to draw attention to the January 6 riot on Capitol Hill as supporters of former President Donald Trump protested the 2020 election.The president will describe the riot as “the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War” according to advance excerpts released by the White House to reporters. Biden will also say he inherited the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression and the worst medical pandemic in a century with the coronavirus, and he successfully turned the country from the brink. “Now — after just 100 days — I can report to the nation:
Rudy Giuliani's son Andrew has accused the Department of Justice of raiding his father's New York apartment and office for political reasons - and claims agents didn't want to take allegedly incriminating evidence involving Hunter Biden. 'Any American, whether you are red or blue, should be extremely disturbed by what happened here today, by the continued politicization,' furious Andrew told reporters in the Upper East Side on Wednesday.'The only piece of evidence that they did not take up there today was the only piece of incriminating evidence that is in there — and it does not belong to my father, it belongs to the current president's son,' he added.
Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani on Wednesday accused federal agents of ignoring copies of Hunter Biden’s computer hard drives when they raided his apartment — and blamed the investigation of him on “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”In a statement released by his lawyer, Giuliani said the FBI “steadfastly declined” to take the hard drives when he “offered them on several occasions.”“Keep in mind that the agents could not read the physical hard drives without plugging them in, but they took Mr. Giuliani’s word that the hard drives were copies of Hunter Biden’s hard drive and did not contain anything pertaining to Mr. Giuliani,”
CNN is spinning President Biden’s leftist stances for all they are worth ahead of his address to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday in a gushing headline that reads: “Joe Biden to showcase his moderate radicalism in his big congressional address.”The outlet literally salivates over Biden’s FDR-like programs and they are promoting it as “Reaganomics in reverse.” CNN ironically posits that government is not the problem, but instead, the multi-trillion-dollar solution. As opposed to Reagan’s historic statement in 1981 that “government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem.”According to revisionist CNN, an all-powerful government can put an end to the pandemic,
Former President Donald Trump is planning to bring back his famous “Make America Great Again” political rallies, a source familiar with the discussions confirmed to Breitbart News.CNN reported Trump may resume his political rallies as soon as May. Since 2015, Trump’s record-setting political rallies allow his supporters to express their enthusiasm for his political agenda and his willingness to be politically incorrect. The former president is expected to emerge as a focal point of opposition to President Joe Biden’s radical-left agenda, and members of the Republican establishment who tried to distance themselves from his political brand after the 2020 election.The rallies will give Trump a political platform, even though
Republicans are already moving to try to muddy President Joe Biden's message before he delivers his address to a joint meeting of Congress – saying his plans to raise taxes and fund social programs constitute a 'radical' agenda that will nevertheless be 'boring' as evening television fare Wednesday night.Republican Senator Tim Scott will make carry his party's banner when he delivers the official Republican response to Biden's plans, and will cast it as a path to misery for working Americans.The Senate's lone black Republican will be aided by a group of GOP officials who are polishing up their reaction to the speech in advance,

'Tiny. Very shiny. Blue and white. Bright. Beautiful. Serene and fragile.'

Hunter Biden: 'They've made sure

Cindy McCain blasted the media’s treatment of presidential son Hunter Biden in an interview released Tuesday night, calling it cruel and intended to ridicule.
The widow of 2008 Republican presidential nominee John McCain said her remarks were “not to be political,” but to say that the extensive reporting on Mr. Biden was unhelpful to addicts. “In the case of Hunter Biden, whether you like him or not, whether you agree with him or not, I don’t care. But the fact of the matter, they have once again shamed a man who is struggling in addiction, and the media has taken no sense of responsibility

A shortage of semiconductor chips continues to impact both automotive industry employees and those looking to buy a car. Industry analysts say the shortage could last through the end of the year and possibly into 2022.
"The microchip crisis is probably the worst crisis I’ve seen in the auto industry, at least in my career, in terms of supply chain," General Motors President Mark Reuss told Fox Business.
General Motors has idled several plants across the country in the last several weeks as the lack of semiconductors meant vehicles could not be made.
On a recent walk, I came across a neighborhood littered with the yard sign in this photo. It seems the provocative platitudes we’ve seen on bumper stickers for a century have now taken root in our yards.
And for the same reason: To tell the world that the sign-planter holds wonderful beliefs that he’s willing to impose upon and attribute to the rest of his family. It’s surely not because the sign-planter thinks he’s persuading anyone of the rightness of his position, as if the neighbors reading the sign will say to themselves, “Gee, ‘Democracy dies in darkness’ is a great point. I’d never thought of it that way.”
The player introductions from Tuesday’s Jeopardy! caused quite an uproar on Twitter as many viewers were left wondering if returning champion Kelly Donohue made a hand gesture which has been classified as a symbol of hate by the Anti-Defamation League. The symbol, which is often referred to as the “OK” sign, has been tied to white supremacists. Context does matter. One fan pointed out that Donohue held up fingers during his previous introductions in correlation to how many games he had won, and coming into Tuesday he had won three games so he held up three fingers. What Donohue hoped
While it may seem obvious that the constitutional right to "keep and bear arms" extends beyond the home, federal courts have been debating that question for years. This week, the Supreme Court agreed to hear a case that could finally settle the issue, which the petitioners call "perhaps the single most important unresolved Second Amendment question." The case involves a New York law that requires applicants for handgun carry licenses to show "proper cause," which according to state courts means more than a "generalized desire" to "protect one's person and property."

During an appearance on Canadian radio show Monday, a Barnard College English instructor discussed with a Jewish host a passage from his new book about how he would gas white people in a locked room “when the race war hits its crescendo.”
(Snip) When this race war hits its crescendo, I’ll gather you all into a beautifully decorated room under the pretense of unity. I’ll give a speech to civility and all the good times we share; I’ll smile as we raise glasses to your good, white health, while the detonator blinks under the table, knowing the exits are locked and the air vents filled with gas.
Federal investigators have executed a search warrant on former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani, seizing electronic devices, according to a report from the New York Times. The raid on Giuliani, who has served as a personal attorney for former President Donald Trump, comes as federal authorities were investigating whether Giuliani violated the law by lobbying the Trump administration on behalf of Ukrainian officials in 2019.
WASHINGTON — When President Joe Biden named Kamala Harris as his running mate, there were whispers about her ambition — would a former rival be a loyal soldier to a president she so sharply criticized on the campaign trail? (Snip) Harris has taken on one of the administration’s toughest tasks — addressing the root causes of migration to the U.S. from Mexico and Central America. The problem has bedeviled presidents from both parties for years and has no easy solutions. Tina Flournoy, Harris' chief of staff, said the vice president has “taken it on with gusto." “She has said to
NYPD Officer Anastasios Tsakos, who was killed early Tuesday by a drunk driver in Queens while directing traffic away from an earlier crash, was a father of two and lived in Suffolk County.
He had family in our country and in Greece.
The Tsakos family had moved to their East Northport neighborhood last summer, and neighbors say the 43-year-old lovingly known as “Tasso” was blending in beautifully to the neighborhood.
However, this news was presented by some mainstream media just as a cop killed by an alleged drunk driver and reported her apology.

More than 230 cops have either retired or resigned from the Louisville Metro Police Department in the last 16 months as a spokesperson for its union says that staffing shortages have left the agency in ‘dire straits’ while violent crime rises.
The Kentucky city’s police department has been in turmoil since the March 2020 police-involved shooting of Breonna Taylor, the 26-year-old black EMT who was fatally shot in her home by officers executing a no-knock search warrant.
According to statistics provided by the LMPD on Tuesday, the department has seen about 190 officers leave last year and 43 depart so far this year.
