A Supreme Court battle over a Washington couple's $15,000 IRS bill is threatening to rewrite America's tax code.
Oral arguments began today in the case of Moore V. United States over a 2017 Trump-era tax rule. The measure affects few Americans but an overturning of it could redefine how income is taxed in the US, cost the federal government hundreds of billions of dollars and jeopardize Biden's billionaires' tax bill.
Former GOP Speaker of the House Paul Ryan today said the challenge was 'misguided' and could make much of the tax code 'unconstitutional.'
Our Institutions Have Betrayed Our Trust

We are witnessing a recurring pattern of events – none of which make sense in a rational world.
Those we trust have told us to accept as truths things that are now turning out to be lies. On the list are government investigative committees, our Department of Justice/FBI, the National Institute of Health, the Food and Drug Administration, weather scientists, and even teachers, to name a few.
But perhaps the greatest betrayal of trust comes from the news media. The journalists who bravely risked everything to investigate and report wrongdoing are no more.
Instead, the vast majority of the mainstream media support the lies in unison
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) on Tuesday reportedly tabled a move to slip a deep state reauthorization into a defense bill.
“BREAKING NEWS —@SpeakerJohnson has nixed an extension of FISA authority as part of the NDAA,” Punchbowl News’s Jake Sherman wrote. As Breitbart News has reported, Johnson and other congressional leaders have wanted to temporarily reauthorize Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Section 702 is a controversial government surveillance law, and the proposed move received strong backlash from 54 bipartisan House lawmakers and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH).
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi suggested Tuesday that it might be a “good idea” to flood the Hamas terror tunnels in Gaza with seawater, commenting on a report in the Wall Street Journal that Israel was thinking about it.
The Journal report stated: “Israel has assembled a system of large pumps it could use to flood Hamas’s vast network of tunnels under the Gaza Strip with seawater, a tactic that could destroy the tunnels and drive the fighters from their underground refuge but also threaten Gaza’s water supply, U.S. officials said.”
The House will vote the week of December 10 on formalizing the impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden to strengthen subpoena power over the stonewalling Biden administration, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) stated during a Tuesday press conference.
The vote will be a test for House Republicans, who hold a slight majority over House Democrats. The measure will need nearly all Republican support.
Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) opened an “impeachment inquiry” on September 12, but lawmakers did not vote to approve the measure.
If the impeachment inquiry receives majority support on the House floor, the inquiry will be formally adopted,
The identities of eight crew members killed when a US Air Force Osprey aircraft crashed last week off southwestern Japan have been revealed.
A search team recovered three members and located the remains of three others, while still searching for the two missing bodies, authorities said Tuesday.
'The depth of sorrow is immeasurable,' Lt. Gen. Tony Bauernfeind, Air Force Special Operations Commander, said in a statement announcing the names of the crew.
President Joe Biden admitted to donors on Tuesday that he might not be running for a second term if Donald Trump were not the likely Republican candidate.
The 81-year-old told supporters at a fundraising event outside Boston that the former president was a grave threat to democracy.
'If Trump wasn’t running, I'm not sure I’d be running,' he said.'But we cannot let him win for the sake of our country.'
However, Biden's approval ratings are underwater and a string of polls suggest he could lose to Trump.
Tuesday on Fox News Channel’s “The Faulkner Focus,” Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) criticized Rep. Pramila Jayapal’s (D-WA) effort to equate the Israeli response to the October 7 terror attacks to the actual terror attack itself and the other reported atrocities committed by Hamas.
According to the Tennessee Republican lawmaker, the acts that she deemed “barbaric” and “sexual atrocities” were war crimes.“It is disgusting,” Blackburn said. “And the fact that you have Congresswoman Jayapal, who will try to draw a moral equivalence when asked about the sexual atrocities that have been committed against Israeli women.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) convened a press conference on Tuesday to give a platform to Jewish students at American universities where jarring scenes of antisemitic demonstrations have played out in recent weeks amid Hamas terrorists' barbaric war against Israel. (X) The students, from schools including MIT, NYU, Harvard, and UPenn, spoke out against the administrators
Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) said Monday she is exploring a third-party 2024 presidential bid after dramatically losing Wyoming’s congressional seat in the 2022 GOP primary by about 40 points before settling for a professorship at the University of Virginia.
If Cheney decides to run, she said the calculation would include how to spoil former President Donald Trump’s path to reelection. She said that plan could entail joining a bipartisan ticket.
FBI director Christopher Wray has warned that the United States is facing the highest risk of a terrorist attack in years in the aftermath of the October 7 Hamas atrocity in Israel.
Wray warned the Senate Judiciary Committee that there are 'blinking red lights everywhere' when asked to assess the 'threat matrix' faced by the U.S.
'The threat level has gone to a whole 'nother level since October 7,' Wray said. His comments come at a time when U.S. forces are being subjected to a barrage of strikes in the Middle East and with Jewish and Muslim communities being targeted at home.
North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un cried as he called on women to have more children, saying over the weekend that it was their duty to halt the country's declining birth rate in order to strengthen national power.
In his seemingly highly-choreographed emotional plea, the authoritarian leader was seen dabbing his eyes with a handkerchief while addressing thousands of women gathered at a National Mothers' Meeting in Pyongyang on Sunday.
'Preventing a decline in birth rates and good childcare are all of our housekeeping duties we need to handle while working with mothers,'

In a controversial turn of policy advocacy, Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) is now advocating for a bold and contentious plan as proposed by another Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL): allowing illegal immigrants to serve in the U.S. military as a pathway to citizenship.
In his recent address, highlighted the demand for legal immigration, suggesting that illegal immigrants who can pass physical and background tests should be allowed to serve in the military. In return for their honorable service, they would be granted U.S. citizenship.

More than one-third of US adults has prediabetes, a serious condition that can lead to type 2 diabetes.
And a whopping 80% of those people don’t even know they have prediabetes, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
But the CDC is pushing back on the rise in type 2 diabetes with a “Be Your Own Hero” initiative aimed at getting people to take a one-minute prediabetes test so they can delay or prevent type 2 diabetes.
“Diabetes is a devastating public health problem, and I cannot overstate the toll that it continues to take on millions of people across the United States,” Dr. Christopher Holliday, director of the CDC’s Division
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) responded to former Rep. Liz Cheney’s (R-Wyo.) dire warnings about a potential second term for former President Trump by claiming President Biden’s reelection would be much worse for the country.
Cheney warned in an interview with CBS’s John Dickerson that the United States is “sleepwalking into dictatorship” as the possibility of Trump winning another term in the White House in 2024 looms. Graham responded to her comments on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday, arguing Trump was a better president than Biden. “I think a continuation of the Biden presidency would be a disaster for peace and prosperity at home and abroad,” Graham said.
Most Deserving Of A Lump Of Coal

Climate czar John Kerry, who must have nightmares of everyone’s carbon footprint but his own, dreams of outlawing coal-fired power plants across the world. Doing so is “how you can do something for health,” he said from the United Nations 28th global warming cocktail party in oil-rich Abu Dhabi. Avoiding blackouts and holding down electricity prices are also good for health, but health is not what the warming activists are interested in.
After declaring that “there shouldn’t be any more coal power plants permitted anywhere in the world,” the White House’s climate hector in chief admitted “the reality is that we’re not doing it.”
