Multiple Pardons Granted By Autopen Without
Biden Approving Recipients, Staff Admit
Posted By: Mercedes44, 7/17/2025 4:55:17 AM
A report released Sunday in The New York Times reveals multiple pardons handed out in the final weeks of President Joe Biden’s presidency were signed by an autopen — some lacking Biden’s final authorization. The article, titled “Biden Says He Made the Clemency Decisions That Were Recorded With Autopen,” seemingly tries to dispel claims by President Donald Trump “and his allies … that Joseph R. Biden Jr. was incapacitated and his staff conspired to take presidential actions in his name.”

Alan Dershowitz, a renowned constitutional lawyer and former counsel for Jeffrey Epstein, who has been a thorn in the side of the party he votes for when it comes to all things Trump, is spilling his guts about Epstein. So let's dig through the entrails and see what he is talking about. Dershowitz claims that there is no list, which makes sense. My mother used to play the daily numbers with a bookie while working in a factory back in the 1980s. She once asked the bookie why he doesn't write down the numbers. He told her a written list could send him to jail,

Again After She Laughably Tries to Claim
It’s ‘Non-Partisan’ 11 replies
Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) continued his destruction of lefties, outwitting NPR CEO Katherine Maher once more after she laughably tried to claim that her organization is "nonpartisan." Yes, really. In a post on Thursday on X, Kennedy reacted to Maher's comments on CNN when the host asked her about accusations of "bias" regarding NPR amid reports about the Senate's move to end taxpayer funding of the leftist media organization and PBS. When it comes to the accusations of bias, I would start as I always start by saying, which is we, of course,

a Palisades Fire Victim 7 replies
Gavin Newsom, Governor of the once-Golden State of California, just can't seem to stop stepping on a certain protrusion. In his latest, he's engaged with actor and Pacific Palisades resident Spencer Pratt, who lost his home in the recent wildfires. And Mr. Pratt, frankly, has walked all over the governor in this exchange. Spencer Pratt, who is one of dozens of residents suing the city, county, and state over their failures prior to the fire and during, has annoyed the governor, you see, by demanding some answers as to how that fire got so out of control so quickly.

Republican Winsome Sears Does a Hard Reboot

We are long overdue for an update on the gubernatorial race in Virginia, where Republican Winsome Sears, the commonwealth's current lieutenant governor, is taking on Democrat Abigail Spanberger, who served from 2019 to 2024 in the U.S. House of Representatives, so let's get down to it.
As a reminder, the current Republican governor of Virginia, Glenn Youngkin, cannot run for consecutive terms, so he's not on the ballot this year. And Virginia is one of two states, the other being New Jersey, that have off-year elections. It's not the most high-stakes of election cycles,
The fake hit pieces by the Murdoch Family tabloids never seem to stop.
As Cristina Laila reported earlier, The Wall Street Journal published a hit piece on President Trump on Thursday night involving Jeffrey Epstein.
President Trump responded to the disgusting hit piece moments ago on Truth Social.
President Trump: The Wall Street Journal, and Rupert Murdoch, personally, were warned directly by President Donald J. Trump that the supposed letter they printed by President Trump to Epstein was a FAKE and, if they print it, they will be sued. Mr. Murdoch stated that he would take care of it but, obviously, did not have the power to do so.

Grand Jury Testimony’ in Jeffrey Epstein Case 13 replies
President Donald Trump called to release “all pertinent grand jury testimony” relating to the Jeffrey Epstein case in the wake of increased scrutiny over the convicted sex offender’s dealings with high-profile public figures.
Based on the ridiculous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I have asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to court approval. This SCAM, perpetuated by Democrats, should end, right now!” he wrote.
Attorney General Pam Bondi said in response, “President Trump—we are ready to move the court tomorrow to unseal the grand jury transcripts.”
The newly appointed Supreme Allied Commander Europe says he is moving “as quickly as possible” on sending new weapons to Ukraine as ordered by President Donald Trump, and warns preparations must be made for Russia supporting China in the feared future invasion of Taiwan. General Alexus Grynkewich, now two months in post at the head of Allied Command Operations told the Landeuro defence conference in Wiesbaden, Germany on Thursday that President Trump’s announcement earlier this week that new weapons would be rushed to Ukraine was being fulfilled.

as funding cut looms 17 replies
PBS and NPR face an uncertain future after the Senate voted to slash funding to the public broadcasters — leading the heads of both companies to make dire warnings about looming changes.
NPR CEO Katherine Maher gathered rattled staffers Thursday for a closed-door meeting at their Washington DC, office, shortly after the early-morning vote by the GOP-controlled Senate clawed back roughly $9 billion in spending for foreign aid, NPR and PBS.
The House has until Friday to seal their fate and send it to President Trump‘s desk, who is expected to sign the legislation.
The chairman of Russia’s Security Council called on Moscow to be ready to strike the West if it escalates the war in Ukraine — days after President Trump vowed to ramp up weapon shipments to Kyiv if a cease-fire isn’t reached soon.
Dmitry Medvedev, Russia’s former president and top ally of Vladimir Putin, warned that Russia would be ready to respond “in full” should the West get further involved in the conflict that has raged for more than three years.
“We need to act accordingly. To respond in full. And if necessary, launch preemptive strikes,”
Both the city and state’s gargantuan budgets are “unaffordable and unprepared” in the wake of a potential recession and impending cuts from the feds, a fiscal watchdog group said Thursday — sounding the alarm on massive overspending.
The Citizen Budget Commission recommended nixing Gov. Kathy Hochul’s pet project, the $2 billion dollar “inflation reduction checks” approved as part of the state’s record-high $254 billion budget for next year.
The nonpartisan group also ripped mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani’s signature plan to raise taxes on wealthy New Yorkers and businesses — an essential policy to pay for the socialist’s pie-in-the-sky platform of $10 billion in new spending.
This time the lies are being fabricated by Iran and its proxy Hamas -- with the generous help of the "international community" not least the UN, the Red Cross and a variety of NGOS...
It has apparently made no difference to mainstream media reporting that there is footage showing that Hamas deliberately shoots at Gazans waiting for aid, or shoots them as punishment for receiving it; or that local Gazans working for GHF have testified that Hamas deliberately targets the aid sites where GHF operates and that 12 of its local staff have been murdered,

Conservative former President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro said on Tuesday that he is “passionate” about President Donald Trump, who treated him “like a brother” when he was president of the South American country. Bolsonaro, a staunch supporter and longtime ally of President Trump, spoke with the Brazilian outlet Poder 360 on Tuesday evening for over an hour, marking his first public appearance since Prosecutor General of Brazil Paulo Gonet called on Monday for Bolsonaro’s conviction in the ongoing “coup” trial against him. The former Brazilian president and Poder 360 conversed on several topics, such as the ongoing trial, his friendship with President Trump,

The media’s desire to make themselves the main character in the story reached the Platonic level on Wednesday as CBS correspondent Scott MacFarlane joined former moderator of NBC’s Meet the Press, Chuck Todd, on his appropriately named podcast: The Chuck Toddcast. According to MacFarlane, he was diagnosed with PTSD after the first assassination attempt against President Trump, not because of the shooting, but because of the reaction of Trump supporters. Meanwhile, Todd thought this was a completely reasonable thing to claim.
MacFarlane recalled, “For those of us there, it was such a horror because
California Gov. Gavin Newsom claimed that he did not want to bulldoze the remains of burned-down Palisades houses and replace them with low-income housing. But that is apparently exactly what he’s doing now, with the help of the California legislature—and Donald Trump’s special missions envoy is furious.
Richard Grenell accused Newsom of lying about his fire recovery goals. Newsom had scoffed, “The claim that the Governor wants to bulldoze fire victims’ neighborhoods and replace them with ‘affordable housing’ is absurd.” But he just announced over $100 million for building low-income housing in the area of the Palisades and other burned areas, as a bill moves through the California
On Thursday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said that the government grocery store plan from New York City mayoral candidate Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani (D) is “a new and fresh plan for New York City. But it’s been tried in other cities around the country and has had some real successes.”
Warren stated that Mamdani “said, we’ve got a problem with entire food deserts where people can’t get access to grocery stores. He said, I’d like to take a look at whether or not we can have some kind of — like we do on military bases — you have some kind of support from the city government
After more than three decades on air, CBS announced on Thursday that its famed "Late Show" franchise is coming to a close.
"The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" will officially come to an end in May 2026, according to the network, which said the decision to end the show was a financial one.
"This is purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night," George Cheeks, the president of CBS and co-chief executive of Paramount, CBS's parent company, wrote in a press release. "It is not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount."
Zohran Mamdani is running for mayor of New York City at exactly the right time in American history. The confluence of a shattered Democratic Party, an electorate wild for change, and a bitterly divided opposition will make the 33-year-old socialist the next mayor of New York City.
As long as he doesn't self-destruct, that is.
We're going to see if Mamdani can keep his foot out of his mouth in the next three and a half months and avoid making his support of an "intifada" against Jews any larger of a campaign issue than it already is. Otherwise, there doesn't appear to be anything that can stop his election victory.
Salem Radio host Charlie Kirk peeled back the layers of the ongoing controversy surrounding the Epstein files. President Trump went nuclear on those pressing what he calls the Epstein hoax. Kirk expounded extensively on what he thinks is the rationale behind Trump’s moves on this matter. It’s worth a listen. In short, Trump doesn’t want a repeat of 2017, when he had to essentially quarantine his attorney general, which led to the Mueller probe and the derailing of his first administration. Kirk argues that’s not what the base wants;
California's embattled high-speed rail project suffered a major setback after Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced the termination of $4 billion in unspent federal funding by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA).
Citing 16 years of failure, no completed high-speed track, and escalating costs, Duffy declared the project, dubbed the "train to nowhere," a mismanaged and over-budget "boondoggle."
"This is California’s fault. Governor Newsom and the complicit Democrats have enabled this waste for years. Federal dollars are not a blank check – they come with a promise to deliver results," Duffy said in a statement.

Labour government announces wrecking amendment to Britain’s Voter ID law by removing photo identification requirement, and slashes voting age from 18 to 16.
Under international and UK law, a child is any person below the age of 18, but by the time of the next UK General Election those age 16 and 17-years-old will be legally allowed to vote for their next Member of Parliament and won’t need photo-ID to do it, the Labour government has announced.
Angela Rayner, Sir Keir Starmer’s deputy prime minister, heralded the change by saying “For too long public trust in our democracy has been damaged and faith in our institutions has been allowed to decline”,

Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said the public "deserves to know" whether CBS’s decision to cancel "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" on Thursday was politically motivated. "Just finished taping with Stephen Colbert who announced his show was cancelled. If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better," Schiff wrote. (Snip) Warren added, "CBS canceled Colbert’s show just Three Days after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if
A “bawdy” letter to Jeffrey Epstein bearing President Donald Trump’s signature was included in an album of letters Epstein received for his 50th birthday in 2003, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday evening, citing documents reviewed by the newspaper.
The letter, which the Journal said Trump sent at the request of Epstein’s friend Ghislaine Maxwell, would have been written 16 years before the Justice Department charged the now-dead Epstein with child sex trafficking in 2019, during Trump’s first term in office.
The missive, which Trump denied having written, came to light as the president angrily tries to tamp down
