Posted By: Dreadnought, 1/15/2025 3:21:25 PM
The Georgia State Ethics commission slapped a record $300,00 fine on a nonprofit founded by Stacey Abrams Wednesday for failing to disclose millions of dollars the entity spent to aid her failed 2018 gubernatorial campaign. Democratic Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock ran the New Georgia Project, an allegedly nonpartisan voting advocacy nonprofit founded by Abrams, during the time the entity illegally aided Abrams’ 2018 campaign until his run for Senate in 2020, according to the Atlanta-Journal Constitution. The nonprofit and the New Georgia Project Action Fund, a closely aligned nonprofit, spent a combined $3.2 million registering voters and attempting to persuade thousands of Georgians

Clear Dr. Haim
0 replies
Donald Trump and his attorney general will be bombarded with requests for pardons, reversals of course in legal cases, and other executive actions from the moment that Trump returns to the Oval Office. He should put clearing Dr. Eithan Haim near the top of his list. While he’s at it, that list should extend to nonviolent pro-life protesters and other targets of the ceaseless and indefensible culture war waged by the Justice Department under Merrick Garland. Some of those deserve pardons. Dr. Haim just needs the government to stop persecuting him.
Joe Biden just can’t seem to let go.
Although his presidency and his legacy have been thoroughly repudiated—whether it be through the polls, which show he’s one of the lowest-rates presidents of all time, or at the ballot box where his hand-picked successor Kamala Harris was brutalized in the November elections—his tenure has been thoroughly tainted by an astounding record of failure. Inflation has killed the dreams of regular folks as just paying for groceries has become a traumatic experience; young people have no hope of buying a home or living the American Dream—considering the crushing interest rates and noxious cost of living. Meanwhile, wars rage on the international stage.
President Joe Biden said Friday he is commuting the sentences of more than 2,000 people convicted of nonviolent drug offenses, cementing his legacy as the president who has issued the most individual pardons and commutations in U.S. history.
Biden said in a statement that commuting the nearly 2,500 sentences would help "equalize" sentencing disparities. "Today’s clemency action provides relief for individuals who received lengthy sentences based on discredited distinctions between crack and powder cocaine, as well as outdated sentencing enhancements for drug crimes," he said.
"This action is an important step toward righting historic wrongs, correcting sentencing disparities, and providing deserving individuals
On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Special Report,” Greenland Prime Minister Múte Egede stated that while they don’t want to be a part of America, there are a lot of areas for cooperation, including on boosting defense in the Arctic region and greater American partnership with regards to Greenland’s minerals.
Egede said that a strong partnership between the U.S. and Greenland is crucial, but “We don’t want to be Danes. We don’t even want to be Americans. We want to be Greenlanders. But we know that we have a lot…to cooperate together with, especially with the defense and security for the last years, we also have a strong
CNN In Deep Trouble [Updated]

We noted here that CNN and Jake Tapper are on trial in Florida, in a defamation case brought by former serviceman Zachary Young. Young helped people escape from Afghanistan; CNN smeared him as an “illegal profiteer” operating within a “black market.” Apparently it is now conceded that this was false. Young alleges that CNN’s smear destroyed his business.
We noted in the post linked above, at the jury selection stage, that there were six prospective jurors who said they think CNN purveys fake news, and only one who said he regularly watched CNN. The trial is now nearing its conclusion, and things have not gotten better for the cable network:
Holy smokes - this falls under the DON'T TEASE ME - I know Trump was serious about hatin' the heck out of these things.
He's certainly said so plainly enough. According to New Jersey congressman Jeff Van Drew, who has been a YUGE friend to the anti-wind forces trying to battle the big developer plans of rodential NJ Governor Phil Murphy... ...our soon-to-be-47th president is itching to get a pen in hand for an executive order. Congressman Van Drew has been assisting in the effort by helping to draft the executive order.
President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly taking swift steps to halt offshore wind energy projects, assigning Representative Jeff Van Drew,
The issue of child grooming has been something conservatives have been sounding alarm bells over for years thanks in part to leftist legislators who think introducing LGBTQ propaganda to children as part of the school curriculum is a good thing, and to educators who eagerly go along with it.
There has also been the rise of so-called "kid-friendly" drag queens, and hyper-sexualized content on Disney, with the latter's opposition to Florida's parental rights bill being one big flashpoint for the national debate on what was needed to be done to protect children - and the rights of their parents

Establishment Georgia House Speaker Jon Burns directed police to jail America First lawmaker State Sen. Colton Moore (R) after he attempted to attend the State of the State joint session, Breitbart News exclusively learned.
Moore, a conservative who led attacks to impeach Fulton County’s Fani Willis for her prosecution of President-elect Donald Trump, was sent to jail Thursday after he tried to enter the House Chamber for Gov. Brian Kemp’s seventh State of the State Address. Burns said he would not allow Moore into the chamber because he opposed the former Georgia House Speaker, the Chattanoogan reported Wednesday:

MILWAUKEE — Bob Uecker, who parlayed a forgettable playing career into a punch line for movie and TV appearances as “Mr. Baseball” and a Hall of Fame broadcasting tenure, has died. He was 90.
The Milwaukee Brewers, whose games Uecker had broadcast for over half a century, announced his death Thursday morning, calling it “one of the most difficult days in Milwaukee Brewers history.” In a statement released by the club, Uecker’s family said he had battled small cell lung cancer since early 2023.
“Even in the face of this challenge, his enthusiasm for life was always present, never allowing his spirit to falter,” the family said.

Florida governor Ron DeSantis announced Thursday that Florida attorney general Ashley Moody will fill the Senate seat vacated by Senator Marco Rubio, who is expected to be confirmed in the coming days as President-elect Donald Trump’s secretary of state.
DeSantis’s announcement is expected to set off a chain reaction among Florida Republicans as the governor’s mansion and the attorney general office open up in 2026. DeSantis is expected to select his chief of staff James Uthmeier to replace Moody as AG, according to Axios.
Moody was first elected Florida attorney general in 2018 and easily won reelection in 2022,
A watchdog investigation into outgoing Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin’s hospitalization in 2024 found that his secretive hospital stay resulted in heightened national security risk, in part because Austin took medication with the potential to impair cognitive function while still in sole command of the Pentagon.
The Pentagon’s inspector general interviewed 44 witnesses and reviewed 56 million pieces of data during a year-long investigation into three separate periods when Austin was hospitalized for medical procedures related to prostate cancer and kept the White House and top Defense officials in the dark about what was going on, prompting a political firestorm. The review concludes that Austin needlessly risked national security

Israel’s security cabinet has delayed a planned meeting to approve a ceasefire and hostage deal with Hamas in Gaza, with Benjamin Netanyahu’s office accusing Hamas of attempting to obtain ‘last minute concessions’ on some aspects of the deal.

Several of Trump’s Cabinet nominees have faced questioning from senators this week.
A Daily Caller reporter caught up with Lisa Murkowski and asked her whether she will vote to confirm Trump’s Cabinet picks.

While the spokesperson did not disclose a reason why Pelosi will be absent from the event to ABC News, the longtime California lawmaker claimed in a January 5 episode of CBS’s Face the Nation that Trump “called out to these people to continue their violence” on January 6, 2021, and that her husband, Paul Pelosi, ended up “being a victim of all of that” rhetoric.However, she was present for the certification of the presidential election results on January 6, the day after she made that statement on CBS, ABC reported.
Ratings-challenged CNN will reportedly move veteran anchor Wolf Blitzer to a new slot in the mornings as part of a wider reshuffle by the embattled cable news pioneer’s boss Mark Thompson. The 76-year-old Blitzer, one of the network’s longest-tenured anchors and current host of “The Situation Room” at 6 p.m., will be teamed with Pamela Brown on a new morning show, sources told Status newsletter on Thursday. The shakeup could also include frequent Donald Trump antagonist Jim Acosta being bounced as anchor of “CNN Newsroom” at 10 a.m., the sources said.
Under Mark Zuckerberg’s leadership, Meta Platforms – what most people think of as Facebook – has demonstrated a pattern of actions that starkly contradict its professed commitment to free speech. This duplicity not only undermines public trust but also raises serious concerns about the company’s role in shaping public discourse.
A glaring example of Meta’s hypocrisy is its handling of political figures.
Don’t forget that they proudly throttled posts about Hunter Biden’s laptop in the final weeks of the 2020 presidential election to protect Joe Biden, even having a Facebook spokesman post on Twitter that they were doing so.

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Alex Wagner Tonight,” MSNBC host Ayman Mohyeldin reacted to the ceasefire and hostage release deal by arguing that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “could have delivered this victory to Joe Biden eight months ago, prior to a U.S. election in which the U.S. candidate for the Democratic Party, the vice president, could have been running on a ceasefire deal. He did not do that. And he did not do that, by design,” and “it is hard to imagine that the Prime Minister of Israel has entered into this ceasefire deal without knowing that, on the back end of it,
