House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s decision to hand over thousands of hours of unseen video from the events at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, to Fox News host Tucker Carlson has sparked criticism from seemingly panicked Democrats, but according to the California lawmaker, he’s just making good on a promise he made to the American people. “I promised,” he told The New York Times during a brief phone interview on Wednesday. “I was asked in the press about these tapes, and I said they do belong to the American public. I think sunshine lets everybody make their own judgment.” As BizPac Review reported, Twitter erupted on Monday after it was announced

Ok, then, Mr. Speaker but so when will the J6 political prisoners who continue to waste away in the DC jails while being beaten merclessly by the black jail guards be released? We are still waiting for an answer, sir.

44,000 hours. For an event that lasted approximately 6 hours, That works out to over 7300 different cameras.

There were thousands of people taking photos and videos of mini-interactions. Many of those were likely confiscated at the time or subsequently subpoenaed by DOJ prosecutors. Presumably, they account for the bulk of the 41,000 hours.

B'H I've watched some clips (a twitter thread of DC Metropolitan Police and Capitol Police body cams) posted on an aggregate news site (CFP) and saw why the leftists are so upset. Shows conduct by these officers which is definitely NOT in the best interest of the narrative pushed by the swamp rats.

What I have seen of McCarthy, I like. I don’t know why he does what he does. I don’t care if he does it for selfish reasons. I am going to call him a name because of what I learned about a certain animal. I learned that when a boar senses danger, he strikes without warning. So I will call McCarthy a Boar. Best Of All Republican(speakers)

#4, you should also add. unfortunately Mr. Speaker doesn't control the president nor doj, Susan Rice, Obama, Valerie Jarrett. Biden's administration is like the three stooges. The real puppet masters are the ones I mentioned. What they want to do is TEACH the people a lesson. What is really being done you can find in countries like China and Russia. Something needs to be done for those people NOW.

I like McCarthy better than I thought I would but I give a lot of credit to Gaetz and the other Republican House members who won some important rules changes and put their leadership in their place. McCarthy so far is doing what he said he would do. Kudos.

REMEMBER that President Trump endorsed Kevin McCarthy for Speaker of the U.S. House! Do some internal thinking and it taking fifteen votes with public concessions to approve McCarthy! REPLY 6, I agree with your BOAR comment! We, the American people, MUST keep the pressure on those responsible for the January 6th crimes against America!

I am with those who are giving McCarthy a break. Time to work his (and our) way through the Dem morass. We are just laptop second guessers/spectators. We are not in the arena. Teddy Roosevelt’s great lins come to mind: “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” Words I have tried to live by. I’ve been in the arena. That is when a colleague gave me a framed version of this for my office wall. That was 50 years ago.

Well, very few politicians do things because they promised to do them. This is a good thing. All the footage should be available to anyone, online. And FREE the political prisoners.

It was one of the biggest mysteries of the Capitol Riots: How could former President Donald J. Trump have possibly be carrying out a “coup” on the capitol without the aid of the U.S. military and only with the help of a bunch of unarmed extremists? Former Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller recently joined podcaster Tim Pool and addressed this very topic. Christopher C. Miller served as the Acting Secretary of Defense from Nov. 9, 2020 until Jan. 20, 2021. His remarks are well worth reporting. (Video)

During an interview with Joe Biden that aired on Friday, ABC’s David Muir asked Joe Biden if he would be running again. He said Muir should ask Jill Biden, referencing comments Jill Biden made earlier in the day during her visit to Africa. It was sort of a joke. But it also told you who is running the show here. When it comes to things, she’s the handler. Jill got snippy with the interviewer, the AP’s Darlene Superville, for even daring to ask the question, as though it was already a settled thing. “How many times does he have to say it for you to believe it?” Jill said

President Joe Biden's mental health is declining; that's no secret. However, it is alarming when he can't make it through an interview without stumbling over his words or being unable to recall whether he's already talked to someone.  During an interview with ABC on the toxic train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, Biden said that he has "talked to everyone that there is to talk to" but can't remember who he has spoken to.  Host David Muir asked Biden if he plans to travel to Ohio and has talked to the mayor.  "I can't recall whether I've — I don't think I've talked to the mayor.

According to historian and filmmaker Amity Shlaes, modern America under President Joe Biden is not all that different from the America that then-President Calvin Coolidge, a Republican, faced when he took office in 1923. “It was very similar to today, almost eerily similar,” she said this week to Fox News. She proceeded to provide three specific examples. “We were coming out of a pandemic, influenza. Two, we had recession… or the prospect of recession. Three, we had hidden inflation. The government wasn’t acknowledging to people that prices were up 40%,” she said.

Special Counsel Jack Smith has issued a flurry of subpoenas as he ramps up his harassment campaign against Trump and his inner circle. The special counsel investigation was supposed to focus on whether Trump broke the law when he took White House records to Mar-a-Lago and the other part of the probe is related to January 6. However, Jack Smith has now expanded his investigation and is looking into Trump’s efforts to fight the massive 2020 election fraud operation in key swing states. Jack Smith recently subpoenaed Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner.

Better late than never! President Joe Biden on Friday directed federal agencies to go door-to-door in East Palestine, Ohio, starting Saturday, to check on families affected by the toxic train derailment. Under Biden’s order, teams from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Environmental Protection Agency and Federal Emergency Management Agency will visit homes.  Workers will ask how residents are doing, see what they need and connect them with appropriate resources from government and nonprofit organizations, the White House said. The 'walk teams' are modeled on similar teams following hurricanes and other natural disasters.

"The world is expected to remain dependent upon oil and natural gas as transitional energy sources until the world can produce enough quantities of green energy," Foothills said. "Natural gas in particular will play a bigger role on a global scale providing clean, reliable and abundant energy to nations for years to come." The company on Friday announced it closed on the acquisition of Jubilee Exploration, based in Oklahoma.

The Democrats are in trouble if they run Joe Biden again in 2024. As I wrote the other day, he’s already put us in terrible trouble with his handling of things. He’s already deteriorated so much — and by the time he has to campaign in 2024, he’ll be in even worse shape. But unfortunately for the Democrats, their alternatives are not great. Among those alternatives is Biden’s “second” — Kamala Harris, known for her word salads and her cackles, but not much else. Indeed, it would be hard to point to one solid achievement that she’s had since she came into office.

Lennon was shot outside, in the Dakota’s archway, on Dec. 8, 1980.

He was asked on Friday if he would be visiting the site of the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, and his response was bizarre. He said he did a “whole video,” and he couldn’t remember that it was a “Zoom” video. “Zoom. All I can hear every time I think of Zoom is that song of my generation, ‘Who’s Zoomin’ Who?'” Biden babbled. Yikes. At this point, he’s just not a serious person; he seems completely out of it.

Earlier this week, the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) cut ties with Rick Warren’s Saddleback Church. The influential Southern California-based congregation had been part of the SBC since its founding, but the denomination dismissed Saddleback over a decision that founding pastor Warren made shortly before he retired. In 2021, Warren ordained three women as pastors, which caused the SBC to consider disciplining the church or kicking it out of the denomination. One of those women, Stacie Wood, the wife of lead pastor Andy Wood, is a “teaching pastor.” On Tuesday, the SBC Executive Committee deemed Saddleback

As RedState reported on Friday, Joe Biden’s long-standing interview moratorium ended with a sit-down with ABC News. It had been months since the president dared to answer questions aside from brief encounters with reporters outside the White House. Nightline is obviously friendly territory, and the questions were mostly mundane at best. Expecting Biden to consistently make contact with softballs is never a good bet, though. In a clip that was released on Saturday morning, the president was confronted with the comments from East Palestine Mayor Trent Conaway. In them, the mayor criticized the optics of Biden galavanting in Ukraine while still refusing to visit the ecological disaster area
