New York's attorney general is now investigating the Trump Organization for criminal offenses, it emerged on Tuesday night. The office, led by Letitia James, had been investigating the company for civil tax offenses since early 2019. The investigation has now escalated. 'We have informed the Trump Organization that our investigation into the Organization is no longer purely civil in nature,' said Fabien Levy, a spokesman for the office. 'We are now actively investigating the Trump Organization in a criminal capacity, along with the Manhattan DA.'

This is designed to stop Trump from running in 2024. They know he won in 2020 and they aren't willing to take the chance again in 2024, so they will doctor up crap, lie about him, the media will run with it for the next 2 years. We've seen this play before.... they are such idiots.

Found any evidence of wrongdoing by Hillary? Hunter? Obama? Antifa or BLM? We now have two systems of justice in America. One that ignores any crime by the left, and one that looks for crimes where there are none for conservatives, patriots, and christians.

If the Democrats think that this Prosecutor is going to get rid of Donald Trump for good, gosh! They are SO mistaken. If they lay a hand on former PRESIDENT Trump, the Democrats will see the furor of the Republicans in this country. There are still millions of them who didn't think it important enough for them to go out and vote last time around. THEY will crawl over broken glass to get to the next election. Democrats can't count on those Dominion Machines to swing the election in 2022 because most of the Republican States are removing them (because they are admitting they stole votes from Trump)! So, Democrats are going to get a good old fashioned Beat Down if they don't leave OUR President alone. Look what happened to Liz Cheney. Everyone thought she had the whole Bush/Cheney Invisible protective fence around their Darling Liz and nothing would ever touch her! Well HA! Republicans rolled right over that fence and threw her large rear end out of that cushy position she held and she is going to lose her next election in WY as well! So, NY Prosecutors, have at it! You are only helping to get the Republican voters into a frenzy and that helps all of us! Next to go, Nancy Pelosi!

It is not an investigation, but a foraging operation to frame Trump on anything they can make stick in front of a left wing judge and jury. The Republican Party has to unite and put a stop to this kind of activity from the Democrats. Give them some of their servings.

So, Democrats really believe that taking Donald Trump will rid him and the voters. They think it will solidify the deep state elitists/establishment once again. What they don't realize is the milk has been spilled. The toothpaste is out of the tube. No going back. We love our country and we will defend it!

Ordinary patriots who patiently stood for hours in heat, cold and rain just to get a glimpse of the man, then voted legally by the tens of millions, they will take to the streets.

What we have here is another example of the is criminalization of politics. That only happens to Republican politicians who are being targeted by the Democrat machine. You can safely bet that this would not have happened to Trump if he had not beaten the New York liberal Democrat darling, Hillary Clinton, in the 2016 election.

An explosion was reported in downtown Nashville early Christmas morning that was felt for miles. Police and firefighters responded to an area near Second Avenue and Commerce Street about 6:45 a.m. Friday. Officials are on the scene trying to put out the fire and see if anyone is inside the building. There were initial reports of structural damage but no immediate information on whether any people were injured. Images and videos taken in the area showed flames and smoke — which could also be seen from miles away. Alarms inside several buildings were heard going off with water pouring into some buildings with structural damage and broken windows.

A smart friend of mine who is a moderate liberal asked why I was not recognizing Joe Biden’s victory. The friend made the case that Mr. Biden had gotten more votes, and historically we recognize the person with the most votes. Normally, we accept the outcome of elections just as we accept the outcomes of sporting events. So, my friend asked why was 2020 different? Having spent more than four years watching the left #Resist President Donald Trump and focus entirely on undoing and undermining the 2016 election, it took me several days to understand the depth of my own feelings.

There have been zero links to coronavirus spread across any of Waffle House’s 2,100 U.S. locations, according to the breakfast chain’s CEO Walter Ehmer. Since the science doesn’t match up with how state officials are responding, by closing dining rooms and restricting restaurants, Ehmer told Fox News' “America’s News HQ” that the American people are just being unnecessarily harmed. “We have proven, over these nine months, we have zero evidence of any spread being traced back to our restaurants for our people or our customers,” he said. “We’ve traced back all of our infections… and it all traces back to something away from the restaurant.”

MADISON, Wisconsin — Republicans in Wisconsin are raising questions about the large number of people, particularly new voters, who avoided having to show a photo ID to vote by listing themselves as “indefinitely confined.” When requesting an absentee ballot, Wisconsin law allows voters to self-certify if they are “indefinitely confined” to their residence because of age, physical illness, or are disabled for an indefinite period of time. Doing so allows them to submit an absentee ballot without having to show any form of photo ID, although they must have a ballot witness sign off.

It is unclear, at this point, whether the investigation is ongoing or if it was directly related to Hunter Biden. Multiple federal law enforcement officials, as well as two separate government officials, confirmed the authenticity of these documents, which were signed by FBI Special Agent Joshua Wilson. Wilson did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request for comment.

Vogue, the world's fashion bible, has placed Jill Biden on her cover as the epitome of fashion. She's a "goddess," they explain. Which is a stretch, given that the first lady has sported getups like this loud red zebra print dress, or these huge-print patterned pantyhose worn with elfin spike heel ankle boots. It goes to show that its whole schtick is politics, not fashion. After all, the big fashion bible for the world's stylish somehow managed to overlook the nation's truly stylish first lady, Melania Trump, a former super-model, who not only was quite beautiful, but age-appropriate and elegant in her four years as first lady.

NEW YORK — "Foolishness." "Unfortunate." "Generations of failures." New York City's Board of Election is facing widespread criticism after it mistakenly included some 135,000 "test" ballots in partial results released Tuesday in its tightly-contested mayoral election. The three-way contest — between Brooklyn borough President Eric Adams; Maya Wiley, former counsel to Mayor Bill de Blasio; and Kathryn Garcia, former Department of Sanitation head — has been upended with a murky picture of who is ahead after the election board's botched release and scores of mail-in votes remain to be counted.

Vice President Mike Pence may be in the doghouse with conservatives but no one can say there were stories that he was a bad boss or that his office was chaotic, mismanaged, or incompetent. Things are different with Kamala Harris. According to an article in Politico, Harris’s office sounds like the real-life version of Veep, the HBO political satire that focused on the stupid, self-centered, and vicious Selina Meyer, a Vice President whose office was filled with slavish gatekeepers and self-centered staff, all of whom were incompetent. The story rings true. What's more interesting is contemplating why Democrats are going after Harris.

Two more Bay Area cities took sides in the region’s long-running crusade against gasoline-powered leaf blowers in recent weeks, with officials in Novato and Hayward moving toward banning the contraptions, increasingly derided as noise, smoke-belching nuisances. Oakland, too, has vowed to get serious about enforcing its rules against their use. And the entire war may swiftly come to a head if a state Assembly bill seeking to ban new leaf blower sales statewide wins approval.
