Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) intends to investigate the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s raid of Mar-a-Lago if Republicans take back the Senate this fall, he told Breitbart News. Grassley, the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, appeared on Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Saturday and shined a light on a number of angles on the raid of former President Donald J. Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence. Grassley first asserted there is an FBI “double standard” concerning Trump in contrast to other political figures, including former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden. “I look at it in a larger context…

Comments:

We shall consider a thorough investigation that will take at least a decade to complete, and find that while some mistakes in procedure were made, no one was accountable and as Americans, we need to do better. Vote Republican.

This is why Dems win. They don’t use the excuse not to act simply because they’re not the majority in power. Also, when Pubs ARE in power, they never do the things they said they would if they are.

Kind of wrong that the FBI/DOJ cannot be investigated for what they have done unless the GOP can win an election.

The career insider bureaucratic appointed swamp the controls the DOJ/FBI will simply tell Grassley and other wimpy Republicans that they can’t talk about the search warrant that was served at Trump’s personal home, or any of the writings and data that they found there, because it is all part of an ongoing and never ending criminal investigation. What will Grassley and the other wimpy Republicans do then?

Albuquerque, N.M.—The fatal film-set shooting of a cinematographer by actor Alec Baldwin last year was an accident, according to a determination made by New Mexico’s Office of the Medical Investigator following the completion of an autopsy and a review of law enforcement reports. The medical investigator’s report was made public Monday by the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office along with numerous reports from the FBI on the revolver and ammunition that were collected following the shooting. Prosecutors have not yet decided if any charges will be filed in the case, saying they would review the latest reports and were awaiting cell phone data from Baldwin’s attorneys.

If you see something, stomp something. New Yorkers can do their part in the battle against the spotted lantern flies that threaten the state’s plant life, which is getting a multimillion-dollar boost to help poison, trap and track the pesky insects, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said Sunday.(Snip)He promised a $22 million federal allocation for the state to squash out the menace, with most of the funding to go to New York City.(Snip)Schumer said the infestation poses a serious economic threat to the state’s fruit and vegetable industry and to Long Island’s $6.5 billion wine business. “All of that is at severe risk,” he said.

A shocking new report has claimed that UN peacekeepers from 12 different countries have fathered and then abandoned thousands of children in poverty-stricken Democratic Republic of Congo since 1999. The report also claims that soldiers and police operating under a UN mandate in the war torn country have abused children, raped young women and traded food for 'survival sex.' One victim was just ten years old when her aunt trafficked her to UN peacekeepers who plied her with beer, raped her and got her pregnant, the report states. The majority of the absent fathers were from Tanzania and South Africa, while others were from Morocco, Uruguay, Nepal and Bangladesh.

Academics: Swedish Proposal to Break Up

Swedish academics have denounced a proposal by a government minister to limit the number of non-Scandinavian residents in neighbourhoods as “state racism.” Ten academics largely comprised of professors from various Swedish universities slammed the proposal made by Minister for Integration Anders Ygeman, who said he would support a policy to limit the number of non-Scandinavian or “non-Nordic” residents in areas so they did not become a majority. “The proposal is difficult to take seriously, but at the same time frightening. It brings to mind the apartheid system and state racism that would cement and legitimise ethnic divisions instead of fighting them,” the experts said

France is in the midst of its fourth heat wave as authorities claim that it is the worst drought in modern history, the Associated Press reported last week. Authorities are beginning to issue water rationing, and farmers are already reporting drops in the production of soy, sunflower, and corn, the AP added. Unfortunately, the heat wave is also bringing wildfires that have become difficult to deal with. Wildfires in northern Spain and France, for instance, caused the evacuation of thousands of residents.
