Christie: Trump Doesn’t Have the ‘Character’
to Be President, His Claims Are ‘Absurd’
Posted By: Imright, 6/25/2023 10:02:14 PM
Former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ), a candidate for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that former President Donald Trump does not have the “character” to be president. Christie said, “I’ve been in the race for less than three weeks and already in third place in New Hampshire, only four points behind Ron DeSantis, who has been in the race for a longer time and is supposed to be the co-front-runner. Look, people understand that folks need to take responsibility for what they do. And my message to the folks at Faith and Freedom, which did get some good reactions, too.

Speaker Kevin McCarthy questioned whether Donald Trump is the strongest candidate to win the 2024 nomination in a comment that raised eyebrows Tuesday morning.
The GOP speaker, who is an ally of Trump's, said on CNBC Tuesday morning he thinks Trump could win the GOP nomination, but isn't sure if Trump is the 'strongest' to win a general election.
'Yeah he can beat Biden,' McCarthy said. 'Trump's policies are better, [more] straightforward than Biden's policies.' 'Can he win that election? Yeah he can,' McCarthy said. 'The question is, is he the strongest to win the election, I don't know that answer.
Hunter Biden will face hours of questioning — under oath — on Thursday when he sits for a deposition in the civil case brought by the owner of the computer repair shop where he abandoned his laptop. The deposition represents the first time the president’s son will be forced to confirm he owned the laptop that contained a cache of emails incriminating the Biden family in a pay-to-play scandal. And unlike the criminal investigation into Hunter’s conduct, this time his father’s administration won’t be able to protect him.
Last October, John Paul Mac Isaac, the owner of the computer repair shop in Wilmington, Delaware,

Democrat-run New York City is ready to hit residents and visitors alike with a “congestion charge” after federal approval was granted Monday for its first-in-the-nation plan to impose big tolls to drive into the most visited parts of Manhattan.
The program could begin as soon as the spring of 2024, bringing New York City into line with places like London, Singapore, and Stockholm that have implemented similar tax impositions on drivers simply going about their everyday business.The news was announced within hours of NYC officials ordering pizzerias that use coal or wood-burning ovens to slice their carbon emissions by 75 percent or else face hefty fines,
The arraignment for Walt Nauta, an aide to former President Donald Trump who was charged alongside his boss in a federal documents case, has been delayed until next month.
Nauta’s attorney, Stanley Woodward, informed U.S. Magistrate Judge Edwin Torres in a Miami courtroom on Tuesday that Nauta failed to show up because his flight from Newark, New Jersey, was canceled due to storms and he was unable to rebook, according to NBC News.Woodward also said Nauta still does not have an attorney who has been admitted to practice law in the Southern District of Florida, which is required by local rules and prevented him from entering a plea

Evaded Millions in Taxes Through Elaborate
Tax Scheme 6 replies
Hunter Biden agreed to plead guilty last week to two misdemeanor counts of failing to pay taxes on time, but according to the second whistleblower whose testimony was also released last week by the House Ways and Means Committee, he also willfully evaded paying millions in taxes in an elaborate tax scheme.
According to the second whistleblower — the lead IRS case agent for the Hunter Biden investigation whose name is redacted — Hunter Biden set up a scheme involving a Ukrainian natural gas company he sat on the board of and a Chinese business associate to willfully evade paying taxes.
A week ago, President Biden ended a speech about gun control with the words: “God save the Queen, man.”
I happened to be watching it live on TV at the time, and replayed the comment to make sure I’d heard him right.
I had.
Biden was urging God to save a woman who died nine months ago, Queen Elizabeth II.
He should know this because he flew across the Atlantic to attend my late, great monarch’s funeral and made a series of statements of condolence to her family and my country.
Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis have been following each other around early primary states and on Tuesday are holding dueling campaign events in the first presidential primary election state of New Hampshire.

As I began to write this one, I had a brief moment during which I felt a bit of compassion for beleaguered White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. Yeah, I know— but think about it.She’s not only in way over her head; she’s reduced daily to trotting out to the White House press room podium to do battle with an increasingly hostile White House press corps and forced to peddle bilge about one of the worst presidents in U.S. history and his equally disastrous administration— ridiculous bilge, that is — written by the same far-left handlers who pull the strings of her clueless boss.
Kamala Harris entered the record books Monday when an NBC News poll revealed she is the most unpopular vice president in history.
The poll showed 49 percent of registered voters have a negative view of the 58-year-old compared to 32 percent in the positive.That’s not all.
Overall Harris received a net negative rating of -17. That is the lowest net negative rating for a vice president in the history of the poll when up against the last four vice presidents during their tenures, with Mike Pence -4 in Oct. 2019, Joe Biden +1 in Dec. 2010, Dick Cheney +23 in May 2003, and Al Gore +15 in March 1995.
Exclusive: Support Mounts Among House

Judiciary Republicans for Merrick Garland’s Impeachment 9 replies
Support among House Judiciary Committee Republicans for an impeachment inquiry into Attorney General Merrick Garland grew stronger after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy threatened impeachment proceedings if IRS whistleblower allegations turn out to be true regarding the politicization of the Justice Department’s Hunter Biden tax probe.
IRS whistleblowers told Congress last week the DOJ twice prevented United States Attorney David Weiss from bringing stronger charges in two separate locations against Hunter Biden. In addition, the whistleblowers alleged Garland rejected a request to appoint a special counsel in the probe to place a degree of separation between the DOJ and President Joe Biden.
Donald Trump on Monday night claimed new audio of him discussing and showing off a classified document about potential military action in Iran 'exonerated' him, adding that the special counsel was 'deranged'.
CNN released Monday evening the two-minute recording of the former president's 2021 meeting in Bedminster, New Jersey, where he talked about the documents he did not declassify before leaving office but took with him anyway.
The conversation has become crucial in special counsel Jack Smith's indictment of Trump.

First gas stoves, now wood-fired ovens.
New York City will be cracking down on wood-fired pizza joints to reduce carbon emissions by up to 75%.
“All New Yorkers deserve to breathe healthy air and wood and coal-fired stoves are among the largest contributors of harmful pollutants in neighborhoods with poor air quality,” Department of Environmental Protection spokesman Ted Timbers said in a statement to the New York Post on Sunday. “This common-sense rule, developed with restaurant and environmental justice groups, requires a professional review of whether installing emission controls is feasible.”
Jill Biden has been reassuring donors that 'nothing' can slow down Joe Biden as a new poll shows a majority of voters remain concerned about his mental and physical health to be president.
'Nothing can slow him down and now he's ready to finish the job,' the first lady said at fundraisers in Minnesota and Tennessee on Saturday, where donors gave millions of dollars to Biden's re-election effort.
The president is coming off a series of stumbles: he tumbled at the Air Force Academy and had a near fall in Hiroshima when he tripped on a set of stairs earlier this month.

The new primetime schedule will feature Laura Ingraham at 7 p.m., Sean Hannity at 9 p.m., Greg Gutfeld at 10 p.m. and Trace Gallagher hosting the news hour at 11 p.m. (Tweet) “Fox News Channel has been America’s destination for news and analysis for more than 21 years and we are thrilled to debut a new lineup,” Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott stated.
Admiral Rachel Levine, the Assistant Secretary for Health for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), has declared, as Pride month is coming to an end, that it should be a “Summer of Pride.”
“Happy Pride! Happy Pride Month, and actually — let’s declare it a summer of Pride. Happy Summer of Pride.”
The admiral, who is transgender, posted the message on the official HHS Instagram account, and posted similar sentiments on Twitter:
Pride month originally began as a commemoration of the Stonewall riots of late June1969, when activists rioted against police raids on the Stonewall pub, where gay men had been known to congregate and meet.
Washington — Systemic negligence, misconduct, and overall under-resourcing among federal prison staff and facilities contributed to the conditions that enabled financier Jeffrey Epstein to die by suicide in his prison cell, the Justice Department's inspector general concluded in a report released Tuesday.
The 66-year-old financier was found dead in his New York prison cell in 2019 a little over a month after federal authorities took him into custody for the alleged sex trafficking of minors. He was accused of exploiting and abusing dozens of underage girls and utilizing a network of employees to ensure continued access to victims, according to
CNN obtained the audio recording of a 2021 meeting in which former President Donald Trump discussed having secret documents he did not declassify.
The network ran the audio on Anderson Cooper 360. In it, Trump seemed to be showing the confidential documents to others in the room, as they had a discussion about Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Portions of the audio are cited in the federal indictment of Trump over his withholding of classified documents after he left the White House. In the conversation, reportedly with the writers of Mark Meadows autobiography, Trump referred to the document and that it remained classified.

The Duchess of Sussex has been dismissed as a talentless broadcaster by one of Hollywood’s most powerful figures.
Jeremy Zimmer, who has guided the film careers of stars such as Benedict Cumberbatch and Damian Lewis, gave his withering verdict on the abilities of the American former actress after streaming giant Spotify axed its £18million deal with her and Prince Harry after just one podcast series.
Zimmer, the chief executive of United Talent Agency, said he was not surprised that Spotify had ditched the couple.
Another Woke Reboot Dies a Horrible Death
24 replies
We’ve long been critical of Hollywood’s lack of fresh, new ideas and its apparent fascination with rebooting past films or giving us a sequel decades later. Sadly, merely paying homage to the original material is insufficient. Instead, producers opt to incorporate “wokeness,” believing it will be more appealing to modern viewers, but in the process, they end up taking something beloved and turning it into garbage that the masses don’t want to see.
The latest example is Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, the prequel series to the 1978 hit film Grease. I’m not sure who wanted this — it’s bad enough to hear any of the original songs
Obama Rings the Reparations Bell

As Black Lives Matters and their allies rev up the call for reparations, it is time to revisit what Milton R. Konvitz wrote in 1976 for the celebration of the Bicentennial of American Independence[1]:
In the late 1960s, when militant blacks staged demonstrations in various churches demanding a half-billion dollars in 'reparations' for three hundred years of subjugation and discrimination, a writer in an Anglo-Jewish journal formulated a demand for 'reparations from various nations on behalf of the Jewish people, including demands to the Vatican for the harm done by teaching that the Jewish people were guilty of deicide and for the promotion
While visiting the US-Mexico border, Republican presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis released his border security plan which calls for an end of birthright citizenship and for him to be able to send the US military into Mexico if necessary. “Joe Biden has failed to meet the most basic responsibility of ensuring the territorial integrity of our country,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said as his plan was unveiled in Texas. “Biden’s gross dereliction of duty has left the southern border in shambles.”
The plan, which mirrors many immigration talking points laid out by other Republicans, including GOP rival Donald Trump, also promised to finish the border wall
Something changed last week inside the Beltway that suggests the people who run the Democratic Party now realize President Biden’s tenure in office is not sustainable beyond 2024. The “tell” was not, however, the latest revelation by IRS whistleblowers about his corrupt administration. It was instead the sudden awakening of the White House press corps. The same “reporters” who snored through more than two years of preposterous claims by Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and her predecessor simultaneously woke up Friday. Correspondents from media outlets CNN, CBS, NBC, and even the New York Times aggressively questioned Jean-Pierre about the metastasizing Hunter Biden scandals.
Call it whatever floats your boat: circular firing squad, internecine warfare, intentional implosion, or Republican intraparty politics as usual, but the song remains the same: the Republican Party has a long history of doing more damage to itself than any damage caused by the Democrats and their lapdog media stooges.
In the latest example, the House Freedom Caucus is reportedly discussing kicking Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene to the curb over her “unprofessional” behavior.
According to a report from left-leaning Axios, members of the Freedom Caucus discussed MTG’s ouster during a closed-door meeting on Friday morning, three sources familiar with the conversation told the outlet.
