GOP Leaders: Justice Dept. Covering for Biden Crime Inc. w/ Trump J6 Indictment

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA)  In a fiery display of outrage, GOP lawmakers and prominent influencers united to condemn the Biden-led Justice Department for orchestrating a federal indictment against Donald Trump, the leading Republican candidate for president in 2024.

The four-count indictment, initiated by Special Counsel Jack Smith and announced by Trump himself on Tuesday, centers around Trump’s purported efforts to investigate allegations of wrongdoing amid the 2020 presidential election.

The timing of the indictment—just two days after Devon Archer, a former business partner of the Biden family, implicated President Joe Biden in his son’s questionable business dealings—has further fueled accusations of a politically motivated cover-up.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., took to Twitter to slam the charges. “Everyone in America could see what was going to come next: DOJ’s attempt to distract from the news and attack the frontrunner for the Republican nomination, President Trump,” McCarthy said on Wednesday.

The House Speaker promised to continue investigating emerging details of “Biden Inc. and the two-tiered system of justice.”

Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., McCarthy’s number two, echoed the speaker’s remarks. Specifically, Scalise said, “Biden’s DOJ is cutting sweetheart deals for Hunter to cover for the Biden Family’s influence-peddling schemes while at the same time trying to persecute his leading political opponent.” Scalise also called it “an outrageous abuse of power.”

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., who led the behind-closed-door testimony of Devon Archer, accused Biden of plotting a cover-up campaign in a Tuesday interview on Fox News. “The American people see through this. This is a sad day for the rule of law and a sad day for the justice system in America,” Comer told Fox News host Laura Ingraham.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., a staunch Trump ally, chimed in, blasting what she believed to be a “politicized” and “weaponized” DOJ. Greene added, “Democrats can’t win on their failed America Last policies, so they’ve taken off their masks and are exposing their true identity, COMMUNISTS!!!”

On the Senate side, Republicans wasted no time reacting with similar sentiments, with Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., saying, “Biden DOJ unveils the latest effort to stop Trump from running against Biden—totally unprecedented in American history.”

Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., joined in the criticism, saying the indictment was fueled by the Democratic Party’s fear of not beating Trump in 2024. “The Left knows they can’t beat Trump amid Biden’s failures, so they’re trying to take him out with criminal charges,” Blackburn said. “Biden’s abusing two tiers of justice to target his greatest political opponent.”

Trump is charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, conspiracy against rights and obstruction of an official proceeding.

Missouri Democrats Incite Arson Targeting Trump Supporter’s Home

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) In a recent incident that has ignited a firestorm of controversy, the official Twitter account of the Missouri Democrats posted a tweet calling for a Trump-decorated home to be burned down.

As reported by Fox News, the viral tweet, referencing lyrics from Rock Master Scott and the Dynamic Three’s song “The Roof is On Fire,” infamously read, “‘The roof, the roof, the roof is on [fire] we don’t need no water, let the ‘insert your word,’ burn!'”

While the Twitter page removed the post, prominent Republican voices shared screengrabs of the tweet, sharing their condemnation at the remark.

Among those blasting the tweet was Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., who expressed his disgust at the Democrats’ call for violence. “Here’s the Missouri Democrat Party advocating for a Trump supporter’s home to burn down. Sick. There’s no place for this kind of disgusting, violent rhetoric in Missouri,” he stated.

Donald Trump Jr. also took to Twitter to address the issue, writing, “No big deal, just the official account of the Missouri Democrat Party openly calling to burn down the homes of Trump supporters.”

Political commentator Greg Price chimed in, sharing a capture image of the tweet with the caption, “A very real deleted tweet from the official account of the Missouri Democrat Party”

The incident highlights the growing concern over the use of inflammatory language within the Democrat Party against law and order, while spending thousands in private security, reported Fox News.

“Rep. Cori Bush’s campaign has funneled tens of thousands of dollars to her new husband, Courtney Merritts, for private security and other expenses during the first half of 2023,” reported Fox News.

“The Missouri Democrat’s campaign, which blew past the second quarter filing deadline and could face potential fines, finally submitted her committee report a week late last month. The new filing shows Merritts pocketed $17,500 for security services and ‘wage expenses’ between April and June,” Fox added.

Malware from China May Be Infecting U.S. Military Bases

(Robert Jonathan, Headline USA) Hackers purportedly affiliated with CCP-controlled China reportedly may have installed malware that could cause havoc at U.S. military installations as well as within America’s critical infrastructure generally.

The rogue computer code, which apparently was initially detected within the Guam telecommunications systems in May, is comparable to “a ticking time bomb,” an unnamed source in the U.S. Congress told the New York Times in one of about 12 interviews conducted for its detailed report.

Guam is the site of large USAF base.

According to the Times, the cyberattack culprits could be working with China’s People’s Liberation Army in the context of preventing U.S. forces from promptly backing Taiwan, at least theoretically or potentially, in the event of a PLA invasion.

“The discovery of the malware has raised fears that Chinese hackers…have inserted code designed to disrupt U.S. military operations in the event of a conflict, including if Beijing moves against Taiwan in coming years.,” the Times explained.

As alluded to above, the threat to “networks controlling power grids, communications systems and water supplies that feed military bases in the United States and around the world” could be more far reaching “because that same infrastructure often supplies the houses and businesses of ordinary Americans,” the Times asserted.

The Biden administration is supposedly on the case, however, and IT techs are in the process of locating and deleting the code, the discovery of which has prompted high-level meetings at the White House about what to do going forward.

Congress, some state governors, and utility companies have also been notified about the alleged cyber sabotage risk.

Ominously, the unidentified U.S. officials that the Times spoke with for the report admitted that “they do not know the full extent of the code’s presence in networks around the world, partly because it is so well hidden.”

Senior Biden national security officials also reportedly have been unable to reach a consensus about whether China’s end game is to disrupt the U.S. military or “civilian life more broadly in the event of a conflict.”

The Axios news outlet noted that “The Times‘ report is the latest warning that China-backed hackers are getting savvier.”

This Times investigation comes at a time when a U.S. Air Force general says he is prepping his approximately 100,000 troops for war with China in the next couple of years.

The foreshadowing of a geopolitical crisis in the making is occurring while the Pentagon is experiencing recruitment woes, perhaps because of its obsession with prioritizing disunifying diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives over military readiness.

In the meantime, the Biden regime has authorized a $345 million military assistance package for Taiwan.

The expansionist, authoritarian Chinese Communist Party obviously continues to exert economic, political, cultural and military influence all across the globe rather than just in the Asian theater.

Through its D.C. embassy, China denied engaging in hacking in response to the Times article.

Conservative-Leftist Divide Grows Wider for High School Boys and Girls

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) American high school boys and girls became more politically divided in recent years, with boys becoming more conservative and girls moving toward the left.

“Monitoring the Future” and the University of Michigan have been conducting annual polling over the last three years that showed 12th-grade boys are more likely to identify as conservatives than liberals, while the girls from the same grade are more likely to identify as liberals, the Daily Wire reported.

The most recent survey revealed that 23% of senior boys identified as conservative, with only 13% of them saying they are liberal. On the other hand, around 30% of senior girls said they consider themselves liberals in 2021 and 2022, which is up from 25% in 2020.

“You look at… all the messaging in society and it’s sort of like everything is about advancing within minorities… and young men, young boys sort of being… left behind,” psychotherapist Thomas Kersting said, adding that he wasn’t surprised by the results of the survey.

“And then you have politicians out there saying things like the number one problem in America is white men and things of that nature, but I think 12th-grade boys are kind of seeing through this. We’re creating this idea that if you’re a male, then there’s something wrong with that and that you’re bad.”

The survey also revealed that leftist high school boys were the majority during the late 1970s — the Jimmy Carter presidency — and the late 2000s — the time when Barack Obama was in office. It was only in 2016 when conservative high school boys became a majority.

On the other hand, girls drastically moved to the left politically in the past decade, after the Democrat Party doubled down on its pro-abortion narrative, promising women that they will be able to murder their unborn babies in the Planned Parenthood clinics after the Supreme Court struck down unconstitutional Roe v. Wade last summer.

In addition to the boys moving to the right politically, the data also showed that fewer young men graduate from the country’s colleges and universities because they are now considered nothing more than a bunch of leftist indoctrination centers, the Wire reported.

In the 2018-2019 academic year, just 74 men received a bachelor’s degree for every 100 women who graduated. As of 2023, compared to 58% of men, 64% of women were graduating from public universities. Overall, women are outnumbering men by almost 60% to 40%, according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center reported.

BREAKING: Donald Trump Indicted over J6, Attempts to Contest 2020 Election Results

(Ken Silva, Headline USA) A grand jury returned with a four-count indictment against former President Donald Trump on Tuesday, accusing him of perpetrating three criminal conspiracies to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Trump is charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, conspiracy against rights and obstruction of an official proceeding.

The charges stem from three alleged conspiracies by Trump: one to pressure state officials to disregard voting results, another to organize slates of so-called “fake electors” and a third to interfere with the election-certification process at Capitol Hill on Jan. 6, 2021.

Though the indictment doesn’t blame Trump for inciting violence on J6, it does accuse him of exploiting what happened that day.

“After it became public on the afternoon of January 6 that the Vice President would not fraudulently alter the election results, a large and angry crows—including many individuals whom the defendant had deceived into believing the Vice President could and might change the election results—violently attacked the Capitol and halted the proceedings,” the indictment states.

“As violence ensued, the defendant and co-conspirators exploited the disruption by redoubling efforts to levy false claims of election fraud and convince members of Congress to further delay the certification based on those claims.”

Reacting to the latest indictment against him, the Trump campaign called it the latest example of the Biden administration weaponizing the Justice Department.

“But why did they wait two and a half years to bring these fake charges, right in the middle of President Trump’s winning campaign for 2024? Why was it announced the day after the big Crooked Joe Biden scandal broke out from the Halls of Congress?” the Trump campaign asked rhetorically.

“The answer is, election interference! The lawlessness of these persecutions of President Trump and his supporters is reminiscent of Nazi Germany in the 1930s, the former Soviet Union, and other authoritarian, dictatorial regimes.”

The indictment filed Tuesday night is the third criminal case filed against the former president and current frontrunner in the 2024 GOP presidential race.

In Aggressive EV Push, Biden Regime Unleashes Crippling New Fuel Standards for Cars, Trucks

(Headline USA) The Biden administration proposed new fuel economy standards this week in the latest effort to phase out gas-powered cars and light trucks and force Americans to buy electric vehicles.

The new Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards, released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which is a part of the Transportation Department, will require passenger cars and light trucks to improve fuel efficiency by 2% and 4% respectively, beginning in 2027. Pickup trucks and work vans must boost fuel efficiency by 10% every year starting in 2030.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg claimed in a statement that the new standards will help Americans save money on gas.

“Better vehicle fuel efficiency means more money in Americans’ pockets and stronger energy security for the entire nation,” he said.

NHTSA Acting Administrator Ann Carlson made a similar claim, estimating the standards will save consumers more than $50 billion on fuel by 2050.

“The new standards we’re proposing today would advance our energy security, reduce harmful emissions, and save families and business owners money at the pump,” she said. “That’s good news for everyone.”

Critics, however, have pointed out that consumers will still end up spending more since the standards will force manufacturers to increase the overall prices of vehicles. General Motors warned the Biden administration last month that the standards could cost manufacturers as much as $100 billion in 2031. The administration reportedly dismissed their concerns.

“This is an EV mandate and further evidence that the elites want normal people to hoof it or take the bus,” Dan Kish, senior fellow at the Institute for Energy Research, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “Americans had better wake up, because cars will soon be so expensive that people won’t be able to afford them.”

Patriot Front Leader Defaults in Lawsuit

(Ken Silva, Headline USA) Last October, two anonymous plaintiffs sued members of the right-wing nationalist group Patriot Front, including its founder Thomas Rousseau, for allegedly vandalizing a mural honoring black tennis star Arthur Ashe.

Five of the Patriot Front members filed a motion last week to dismiss the lawsuit. However, Rousseau was not a party to that motion to dismiss.

The Patriot Front founder has apparently not responded to the lawsuit, leading to a district judge entering a default against him last week—meaning that Rousseau is now barred from defending himself.

The judge also entered a default against Patriot Front as an organization, as well as member William Ring. There are 23 other Patriot Front defendants who have yet to be identified and are referred to as “John Does 1-23.”

It’s not clear why Rousseau—who is set to stand trial in Idaho on Sept. 22 for allegedly planning a riot at a pride event last year—is not a part of the motion to dismiss. Attempts to reach him for comment were unsuccessful.

An attorney for the Patriot Front defendants who filed the motion to dismiss—Nathan Noyce, Thomas Dail, Paul Gancarz, Daniel Turetchi and Aedan Tredinnick—declined to comment.

“I have no connection with Patriot Front.  I am merely local counsel for several young men who are facing a wholly improper lawsuit,” said the Virginia-based attorney, Brad Marrs.

The Patriot Front lawsuit stems from the fall of 2021, around the time of a civil trial over the 2017 white nationalist rally in Charlottesville. According to the lawsuit, Patriot Front members defaced the Ashe mural less than two weeks before the trial was set to begin.

“The vandalization of the mural was not a spur of the moment decision, but rather was carefully planned,” the October 2022 lawsuit claimed.

“The mural, which had taken months of planning and work to create, was effectively ruined and the Black man it celebrated erased.”

The lawsuit claimed that the Patriot Front’s actions caused the plaintiffs “feelings of hurt, fear, and anxiety.”

“After seeing the spray-painted Patriot Front logos, Plaintiff Doe 1 immediately felt a sense of fear and apprehension at being in the Park,” the lawsuit said.

“In light of the upcoming Charlottesville trial, Plaintiff Doe 1 interpreted the vandalism as a warning from the Patriot Front that Black residents of the neighborhood and those who opposed white supremacy were not safe.”

But in their motion to dismiss last week, the defending Patriot Front members said the lawsuit is baseless.

“Here, we are not faced with a claim brought by the owner of the defaced mural (the City of Richmond), nor with a criminal prosecution,” the motion to dismiss said.

“The Complaint asks this Court to expand the consequences of this regrettable incident by metastasizing the number of potential plaintiffs by treating an isolated act of vandalism as a violation of the civil rights of virtually any persons claiming to have taken offense.”

Elsewhere in the motion, the Patriot Front members further noted that “there is no allegation in the Complaint that any defendant threatened or menaced either plaintiff, nor that the plaintiffs suffered any physical harm in any way.”

“To the contrary, the injuries relied upon may be fairly characterized as the plaintiffs’ subjective, emotional responses to a public event – one they do not even claim to have witnessed in person,” they said.

The defendants further criticized the plaintiffs for withholding their identities.

“It would, in fact, be impossible for Defendants to investigate the veracity of plaintiffs’ allegations of their suffering without knowing who plaintiffs are and indeed gaining full discovery as to any and all injuries claimed,” they said.

The plaintiffs have yet to respond to the motion to dismiss.

Biden’s Open Border Yields Enough Fentanyl Monthly to Kill All Americans

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) As President Joe Biden and his administration focus on trans rights abroad and enforcing inclusionary policies, the border crisis has amplified to dangerous new heights, with enough fentanyl flowing across the southern border each month to kill every American citizen, PJ Media reported.

In the month of June alone, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection seized more than 2,000 pounds of the drug. According to drug experts, one kilogram, or 2.2 pounds, is enough fentanyl to kill over 500,000 people.

Dr. Donna Nelson, an organic chemist and University of Oklahoma professor, explained that though things look bad, the reality is even more dire.

“I don’t think the public is really aware of what a challenge this is,” Nelson said, noting that border patrol agents likely only stopped a small part of the fentanyl flowing across America’s open southern border.

“You have to assume that the border agents are not catching everything that’s coming into our country.”

Since Biden took over for former President Donald Trump, the matter has only gotten worse, and in a serious way.

In 2020, the Border Patrol seized 445 pounds of fentanyl per month; in 2021, 882 pounds per month; in 2022, 1,175 pounds per month.

And though data for 2023 will not be confirmed until October, the Border Patrol’s average monthly seizure so far has been 2,427 pounds per month–approximately five times more than Trump’s final year of his presidency.

Meanwhile, as the left squawks about guns, 292 Americans die every day from drug overdoses, most of that being fentanyl that illegally made its way across America’s southern border.

According to former Trump adviser and intelligence officer Anthony Shaffer, the root cause of the trouble is Biden’s China connections, since a large bulk of the drug is linked to Chinese pharmaceutical companies.

“[I]nstitutions of the United States government, to include the White House, Hunter Biden, [and] Joe Biden, were paid millions of dollars to essentially defer to China,” he said. “I think that’s why we have such weak responses from the Biden White House, because they’ve been bought. I’m just saying it.”

Blinken Says Nuclear War No Worse Than Climate Change

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) In defense of the Biden administration’s radical green agenda, Secretary of State Antony Blinken refused to acknowledge nuclear war as a greater threat to humanity than climate change.

Blinken made the statement in an interview on 60 Minutes Australia, when journalist Amelia Adams asked the secretary which issue was of more concern.

“Well, you can’t, I think, have a hierarchy. There are some things that are front and center – the wolf at the door – including potential conflict, but there’s no doubt that climate represents an existential challenge to all of us,” Blinken said.

“It’s one of the reasons we’re so gratified at Australia’s leadership when it comes to combating climate change; that Australia is stepping up in the way that it sends a very powerful message.”

Calling climate change “the existential challenge of our times,” Blinken gave props to Australia’s green efforts, claiming, “It’s both practical in what Australia is doing, but it also is the symbolism of an important country taking a clear stand and also taking action against climate.”

While the possibility of a larger dispute with Russia looms, critics have claimed that global elites and Biden officials are more concerned with funding and pushing the climate change narrative.

Biden’s climate envoy John Kerry outright refused to call Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping a “dictator,” and allowed the eastern nation to be classified as a “developing nation” in order to avoid enforcing climate emissions standards.

The Biden administration also pushed mass amounts of funding towards the climate change agenda via scare tactics provided by international organizations such as the World Health Organization.

WHO recently increased its 2024-2025 budget by $6.83 billion to fight “pandemics fueled by climate change” and “emergencies of all kinds.”

Kamala Invents Her Own Poll Numbers in Response to Record-Low Approval Ratings

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) Vice President Kamala Harris responded to polls revealing that she was the worst-rated Veep in American history by insisting that the polls said she had excellent approval ratings.

Harris made the comments in response to a question from ABC News reporter Linsey Davis, who attempted to slip Harris a race card as cover to explain the atrociously-low popularity numbers.

“There are reports that say you have the lowest approval rating of any vice president,” Davis said. “I’m curious — how much of a role, if any, that you feel race and gender play in that?”

Harris replied by insisting polls showed she had high approval ratings, but neglected to cite them, the Daily Wire reported.

“Well, there are polls that also say I have great approval ratings,” Harris fabled. “I think the point that has to be made is that there are attempts to create distractions away from the accomplishments of our administration.”

Harris went on to claim that the Biden administration “created over 13 million jobs” since taking power. She did not mention that many of those jobs were simply people returning the work as COVID restrictions were lifted.

She also claimed that she and President Joe Biden “restore[d] America’s integrity on the international stage.”

Harris’s approval rating landed at 32% last month, according to a poll by NBC News; 49% of respondents had a negative view of her, including 39% who held a “very negative view.”

Her net-negative rating is the lowest for any vice president in history.

The latest Quinnipiac Poll showed Harris is substantially underwater with all demographic groups except one. Among blacks, 62% of registered voters view Harris favorably; only 17% unfavorably.

Another poll indicated that only 39% of voters want Harris as Biden’s 2024 running mate.

Despite the abysmal ratings, Harris continues to have a high regard for herself, comparing her work to that of the founding fathers and pushing radical far-left policy.
