Newsom Claims to Talk w/ Biden ‘All the Time,’ Supports 2024 Run

(Headline USA) California Gov. Gavin Newsom sparred with Fox News host Sean Hannity on Monday night, insisting President Joe Biden is physically fit for a second term as president while refusing to say whether supporters have urged him to run against Biden on the 2024 ballot.

Newsom’s appearance on the once conservative network capped off roughly two months of decline since the firing of respected conservative host Tucker Carlson cost the network its credibility among many viewers.

Hannity, long seen as a diva and a tool of the political establishment, allowed Newsom to duck and weave around any direct responses while framing himself as a polar opposite to former President Donald Trump, who deftly garnered headlines by appearing on a recent CNN town hall.

It also seems to be part of an effort, however implausible, on Newsom’s part, to “normalize” himself and attempt to brand himself as a moderate, despite having served as governor of the most extreme leftist state in the nation.

Asked if he believes Biden is “cognitively strong enough to be president,” Newsom said yes, adding that he talks with the president “all the time” and has traveled with him aboard Air Force One.

‘You never answered my question directly,” Hannity responded. “How many times does your phone ping a day, people saying you need to get in this race because they agree with me that he’s not up to the job.”

Newsom stammered somewhat before responding: “I’m not answering.”

Newsom has repeatedly said he has no interest in running for president, saying he completely supports Biden’s reelection campaign. In April, Newsom raised money for Biden during a fundraiser in Washington shortly after the president announced his reelection campaign.

But Newsom has continued to raise his national profile, fueling more speculation that he is laying the groundwork for a presidential campaign beyond 2024. After coasting to reelection as governor in 2022, Newsom took the millions of dollars left over in his campaign account to start a new political action committee.

Newsom said he plans to use the money to support Democrats running for office in Republican-dominated states like Arkansas, Alabama and Mississippi. Last week, Newsom said the committee would campaign for a 28th amendment to the U.S. Constitution to harden federal gun laws.

Fox News said Monday was Newsom’s first interview on the network since 2010, back when Newsom was the mayor of San Francisco.

Last year, Newsom conceded that Republicans were “winning right now” in part because he said Democrats were too timid, giving conservatives the most compelling narrative over the airwaves.

He has since opted for a more confrontational style—which includes Fox News. Newsom has said he is a regular viewer of the network. Last year, his campaign paid for an ad on Fox News in Florida and urging residents there to “join us in California.”

“We need more of these kinds of conversations, and we need to not just accuse each other of misleading the American people, but I think confront each other in the context of providing opportunities to address some of the facts that are often omitted in terms of the conversations and topics we choose to pick up,” Newsom said.

Monday’s interview had plenty of confrontation, with Hannity and Newsom often talking over each other.

Hannity noted California lost population for the first time in its history as a state while Newsom was in office, offering that as evidence that the policies of Newsom and his fellow Democrats have failed. That includes California’s income taxes, with a top rate of 13.3% that is the highest in the nation.

Newsom pushed back that only the wealthy pay that 13.3% income tax rate. He said that top tax rate was established before he was governor, emphasizing that he has opposed new tax increases on the wealthy, including campaigning against a proposal on the 2022 ballot that would have raised taxes on the wealthy to pay for more zero-emission vehicles and to help fight wildfires.

“I’ve never been a profligate Democrat. I’ve balanced budgets. We make the hard choices. I’m a business guy,” Newsom claimed, without evidence.

The interview was recorded previously in Sacramento before airing on Monday night. Hannity defended Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s use of taxpayer funds to fly migrants to California.

“You are an open sanctuary state! Why don’t you embrace them,” Hannity asked

“We embrace everybody here,” Newsom said. “I sat down with these migrants. I talked to every single one of them. They were lied to, they were misled.”

But it wasn’t all criticism from Newsom. The governor said he had a good relationship with former Trump during the coronavirus pandemic, saying Trump “played no politics during COVID with California.”

“I’ve got a lot of critique from the left by saying that,” Newsom said.

While the interview took up the full hour of Hannity’s show on Monday, the two men still had more to talk about. Hannity said the rest of the interview will air later this week.

Respected Conservative Host Pat Sajak Announces Retirement Plans

(Headline USA) Pat Sajak is taking one last spin on “Wheel of Fortune,” announcing Monday that its upcoming season will be his last as host.

Sajak announced his retirement from the venerable game show in a tweet.

“Well, the time has come. I’ve decided that our 41st season, which begins in September, will be my last. It’s been a wonderful ride, and I’ll have more to say in the coming months. Many thanks to you all,” the tweet said.

Sajak, 76, has presided over the game show, which features contestants guessing letters to try to fill out words and phrases to win money and prizes, since 1981. He took over duties from Chuck Woolery, who was the show’s first host when it debuted in 1975.

Along with Vanna White, who joined the show in 1982, Sajak has been a television mainstay. The show soon shifted to a syndication and aired in the evening in many markets, becoming one of the most successful game shows in history.

Sajak will continue to serve as a consultant on the show for three years after his retirement as host.

“As the host of Wheel of Fortune, Pat has entertained millions of viewers across America for 40 amazing years,” said Suzanne Prete, executive vice president of game shows for Sony Pictures Television.

“We are incredibly grateful and proud to have had Pat as our host for all these years and we look forward to celebrating his outstanding career throughout the upcoming season,” she added.

In recent years, some of Sajak’s banter and chiding of contestants have become fodder for social media.

That prompted Sajak to remark in his retirement post about doing another season: “(If nothing else, it’ll keep the clickbait sites busy!)”

As for Sajak, he likely will have plenty to keep himself occupied as he has spent his time moonlighting as a conservative commentator on Twitter—a rarity in showbusiness.

That Sajak has managed to avoid the attacks that other Hollywood conservatives have faced may be a testament to his long tenure and his innate charm.

His personal account, with more than 373,000 Twitter followers, far eclipses his official “Wheel of Fortune” account and holds no punches in espousing his right-wing views, often with a witty or ironic twist.

Biden Admin. Pushes New Rule Impacting Millions of Pistol Owners

Biden Admin. Pushes New Rule Impacting Millions of Pistol Owners

(Casey Harper, The Center Square) The White House on Monday called for a controversial pistol regulation that would impact millions of Americans, requiring many more gun owners to register with the federal government.

President Joe Biden’s Office of Management and Budget released a statement backing new federal regulations for “stabilizing braces” for pistols. The White House also blasted a Republican Congressional effort to push back against the rule, making clear Biden would veto Republicans’ bill if needed.

The fight over this issue kicked into high gear in January when the Department of Justice’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives issued a final rule to put pistols with “stabilizing braces” into the category of short-barreled rifles, thus subjecting them to heavier regulations. Those braces allow users to fire pistols with one hand, and were initially designed to help people like disabled veterans to continue using firearms.

The new rule would require Americans to pay a fee and register their braces. Lawsuits were filed to challenge this rule, and in May a federal court temporarily blocked the rule until a final decision is reached.

The Firearms Policy Coalition, which challenged the Biden rule in court, said that it would have made “millions of peaceable people into felons overnight simply for owning a firearm that has been lawful to own for a decade, unless they either destroy their constitutionally protected property or comply with the NFA’s onerous and unconstitutional requirements.”

According to ATF, there are about 3 million guns with stabilizing braces in the U.S. Failing to register could lead to fines and even imprisonment.

The White House pointed out that some mass shooters have used stabilizing braces and argue the braces make pistols more like short barrel rifles, which are much more heavily regulated.

“The rationale is clear: short-barreled rifles are more concealable than long guns, yet more dangerous and accurate at a distance than traditional pistols,” the White House said. “For these reasons, they are particularly lethal, which is why Congress has deemed them to be dangerous and unusual weapons subject to strict regulation since 1934.”

U.S. Rep. Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., introduce a resolution in March to overturn the federal rule change via the Congressional Review Act, which allows Congress to block federal rule changes.

The White House, though, has blasted the Republican effort.

“Even though Congressional Republicans should take additional action to keep these and other dangerous weapons off our streets, they are instead pushing a resolution to reverse this rule and the progress we have made to enforce existing statutory requirements on these dangerous weapons,” OMB said.

Trump Calls for Peaceful Protest ahead of Arraignment on Sham DOJ Indictment

Trump Calls for Peaceful Protest ahead of Arraignment on Sham DOJ Indictment

(Mark Pellin, Headline USA) Echoing his calls for peaceful protest at the J6 Stop the Steal rally before it descended into what growing evidence points to as a fedsurrection, former President Donald Trump on Monday night urged his supporters to engage in peaceful and civil protest as thousands are expected in Miami on Tuesday for his arraignment.

During a Monday interview with MAGA operative Steve Bannon, Trump said that his supporters “have to protest peacefully,” but for a purpose.

“We need strength at this point, and everyone’s afraid to do anything,” Trump said in likely reference to the boot-jacketed treatment hundreds of peaceful J6 protestor have received from the Biden administration. “They’re afraid to talk, and they have to go out and they have to protest peacefully. They have to go.”

When asked if he had a message for his supporters planning protests on Tuesday, Trump said that “We need to strengthen our country now, our country is being taken away from us.” The country, he said, “is going communist, it’s going Marxist, it’s going really bad. The people of our country aren’t that way, but the people running it are.”

A case in point could be made for the political targeting of Trump, who is slated to be arraigned on the Biden DOJ’s indictment on 37 felony counts for alleged mishandling of classified documents, alleged attempts to obstruct the investigation and for allegedly lying to investigators.

“Look, our country has to protest. We have plenty to protest. We’ve lost everything. We’ve lost our borders, we’ve lost our election integrity, we’ve lost respect all over the world,” Trump said, before slamming Democrats for wanting to hike taxes to push a radical leftist agenda.

Bannon, likewise, encouraged peaceful protest.

“I have urged all of your supporters, that it they decide to go it is essential that they keep it peaceful, civil and legal,” he said.

Reportedly imprisoned J6 patriot protester Jon Mellis also lobbied for peaceful protest.

“We appreciate your support of President Trump. Thank you for showing up for him,” Mellis wrote from his cell in the DC Gulag, according to the Gateway Pundit.

“Please do NOT let any violence happen while you show your support and patriotism to the greatest President in American history,” Mellis advised. “We all know too well that government operatives may be involved. Antifa and BLM agitators will try to attack you, egg you on, and even infiltrate your crowd to cause problems.”

While constrained in his comments to Stone, a defiant Trump blasted what he called “ELECTION INTERFERENCE at a level never seen before in our Country!” in a post made to Truth Social on Monday before flying on Trump Force One to Miami.

“I hope the entire country is watching what the radical left lunatics are doing to America, and all we stand for,” Trump wrote in his trademark all caps, before vowing that if he’s reelected he would “appoint a real special ‘prosecutor’ to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the USA, Joe Biden.”

“Joe Biden just stated he never spoke to Attorney General Garland about Indicting his POLITICAL OPPONENT, who just happens to be leading him, by a lot, in the polls,” Trump wrote. “Used to say the same thing about Hunter’s business partners, until that was revealed to be a lie! Met with them many, many times. Crooked Joe & his thugs are destroying America.”

McCarthy Shreds MSM for ‘Weaponizing’ Biased Coverage of Biden Regime

McCarthy Shreds MSM for ‘Weaponizing’ Biased Coverage of Biden Regime

(Mark Pellin, Headline USA) On the eve of an unprecedented arraignment for felony criminal charges against a former president under the direction of the sitting president’s Justice Department to target the Republican frontrunner in the 2024 bid to oust Joe Biden, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., excoriated mainstream media for “weaponizing” its political coverage.

“Are your prepared to defend your network?” McCarthy asked a CNN reporter Monday, when he ripped the network’s gaslighting of Biden’s politically weaponized indictment of Trump, after being pressed on whether he was prepared to defend the former president.

“Even though your network hired Andrew McCabe, who was fired from the FBI for leaking classified documents,” McCarthy continued, undeterred by the reporter’s interruption.

“Did you remove him from your network? No, you continued to put him on to give judgement against President Trump,” McCarthy said.

And that was just once example. McCarthy also derided CNN for hiring and giving a platform to disgraced former NIS chief spook James Clapper.

“So your network hires Clapper, who literally lied to the American public, one of 51 other individuals who had briefings and used it politically to tell the American public that a laptop was Russia collusion, even though it had all this information about the Biden administration,” McCarthy said.

“Are you prepared to get rid of those people from your network? Because my concern as a policy-maker is that when you weaponize government, and now you’re weaponizing networks, that is wrong.”

The problematic conflict is real and pervasive McCarthy said, as Biden regime media collaborators push a biased and fabulist narrative on the public.

“I have a real problem that your network actually pays people who did classified information and then lied to the American public to try to influence a presidential election, and you put him on your network to give an opinion about a president,” McCarthy said.

Republican presidential contender Vivek Ramaswamy was equally critical of fake news’ leftist bias in covering the Biden DOJ and the Trump indictment.

“The job of the political media, if it has one job, is to hold the U.S. government accountable,” he said. “Instead … you’re seeing the media doing the bidding of the U.S. government.”

Ramaswamy on Monday filed a freedom of information request with the Justice Department demanding the release of all documented exchanges between the Biden White House, Merrick Garland’s DOJ and special counsel Jack Smith regarding what he called the unprecedented politically-weaponized indictment of the former president.

“Ask the question. Get to the bottom of what Biden told Garland and Garland told Jack Smith,” Ramaswamy said. “If the same shoe fit the other foot you would not take their word at face value. Do not take their word now.”

Ramaswamy Files FOIA Request for DOJ Communications w/ White House on Trump Indictment

(Mark Pellin, Headline USA) Already having vowed if elected president to pardon Donald Trump if necessary, Republican Vivek Ramaswamy on Monday filed a freedom of information request with the Justice Department demanding the release of all documented exchanges between the Biden White House, the DOJ and special counsel Jack Smith regarding what Ramaswamy called the unprecedented politically-weaponized indictment of the former president.

“The Department of Justice’s recent indictment of President Donald J. Trump raises grave concerns that DOJ is being politicized and weaponized against the political opponents of the sitting President of the United States,” the FOIA filed on behalf of Ramaswamy read. “The existence, timing, and content of the indictment all necessitate both this request and, one would hope, a completely open and forthright response.”

Trump is slated to appear in Miami Tuesday to be arraigned on the DOJ’s indictment that covers 37 counts related to alleged obstruction of justice and mishandling of classified documents that were found at his Florida Mar-a-Lago home.

Ramaswamy said the full extent of collaboration between Garland, Smith and other federal agents with the Biden White House in pursuing its targeting of Trump is vital to restore public confidence.

“Every American deserves to know. If the captured media fails to do its job, real leaders in this country need to step up and do it instead,” Ramaswamy tweeted.

“I’m running to win this election & it’d be easier for me if Trump were eliminated from running, but that is not the right answer for our nation.”

Ramaswamy’s criticism echoed comments he made over the weekend, when he obliterated mainstream media for carrying the Biden DOJ’s water and slanting its coverage of the Trump indictment.

“With due respect, I think it is shameful that I, as a competitor to president Trump in this race, have to ask questions that the media isn’t asking,” Ramaswamy told CNN’s Dana Bash, after she had claimed there was “no evidence” linking Biden to the Trump indictment.

That’s because mainstream media has turned a collectively biased and blind eye to pursuing any actual evidence, Ramaswamy said.

“Ask the question. Get to the bottom of what Biden told Garland and Garland told Jack Smith. If the same shoe fit the other foot you would not take their word at face value. Do not take their word now,” Ramaswamy warned.

“Get to the bottom of it. Let’s actually restore journalism in this country. That’s what’s actually missing, is getting to the truth.”

Deriding the Biden regime’s dual system of justice as a “federal administrative police state,” Ramaswamy said the media was failing to keep it in check.

“The job of the political media, if it has one job, is to hold the U.S. government accountable,” he said. “Instead … you’re seeing the media doing the bidding of the U.S. government.”

GOP Fury: Garland under Fire over Political Vendetta against Trump

GOP Fury: Garland under Fire over Political Vendetta against Trump

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Prominent Republican members of Congress have launched scathing responses to Attorney General Merrick Garland, criticizing the Department of Justice’s decision to indict former President Donald Trump and condemning it as a politically motivated vendetta.

The GOP figures expressed their dissent in unison on Twitter, denouncing Garland’s actions as setting a dangerous precedent. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas., shared an interview with Newsmax where he blasted Garland’s double standard and accused the embattled attorney general of prosecuting Trump “because he hates him.”

Another Republican, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., echoed Cruz’s assessment, stating, “Merrick Garland is cherry picking who his DOJ prosecutes. Two set of rules. Two tiers of justice.”

Adding to the chorus of criticism, Sen. Hill Hagerty, also from Tennesse, ripped the Department of Justice for “criminally” charging Biden’s political rival while withholding evidence regarding an alleged bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden, during his time as Obama’s vice president.

GOP members in the House of Representatives did not shy away from commenting as they accused Garland of weaponizing the DOJ against a political opponent. Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., blasted Garland, stating, “Joe Biden and Merrick Garland are using our justice system to run a politically motivated prosecution of President Trump. The lengths the Swamp has gone to try to block President Trump’s re-election…”

Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., shared an interview with OANN where he voiced his constituents’ concerns “about how the Biden DOJ has unfairly targeted President Trump.” Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., a staunch Trump supporter, backed Biggs comments, saying, “Joe Biden weaponized his DOJ to indict President Trump the SAME DAY the FBI was forced by Congress to turn over damning allegations regarding Biden’s corruption.”

The rift between Trump and Garland dates back to 2016 when Senate Republicans thwarted Obama’s nomination to be a Supreme Court justice. Following his victory in the 2016 election against Hillary Clinton, Trump withdrew Garland’s nomination and instead appointed Neil Gorsuch.

Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., celebrated the fact that Garland is not in the Supreme Court, saying, “Every day Merrick Garland isn’t on the SCOTUS is a good day for America.”

Republicans also blasted the DOJ’s apparent protection of Clinton, Trump’s 2016 opponent, who mishandled classified information. Rep. Beth Van Duyne, R-Texas, called out the double standard, saying, “Hillary should have been indicted 10,000 times over. Biden had documents all over the eastern seaboard before he was.” 

Grassley: 17 Audio Recordings Showing Biden, Burisma Plotting $5M Bribery Scheme

Grassley: 17 Audio Recordings Showing Biden, Burisma Plotting $5M Bribery Scheme

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, has come forward with an explosive revelation, alleging the existence of an audio recording that purportedly shows a Burisma executive discussing a $5 million bribery scheme with President Joe Biden and Hunter Biden.

During a speech on the Senate floor on Monday, Grassley stated that the Burisma executive kept the recording as an “insurance policy” for the potentially incriminating “pay-for-play” criminal scheme described in a now-infamous FD-1023 informant file.

In his speech, Grassley said, “The foreign national, who allegedly bribed Joe and Hunter Biden, allegedly has audio recordings of his conversations with him, 17 such recordings.”

Grassley also referred to the informant file, which alleges that “the foreign national possesses 15 audio recordings of phone calls between him and Hunter Biden.” According to Grassley, these recordings include “two audio recordings of phone calls between him and then Vice President Joe Biden.”

The Iowa senator added, “These recordings were allegedly kept as a sort of insurance policy for the foreign national in case he got into a tight spot.”

Grassley has attempted to obtain the release of the FD-1023 file through the subpoena power of his colleagues in the Republican-led House Oversight Committee. However, FBI Director Christopher Wray has said that making the potentially damning file could endanger the informant’s file.

During his Senate speech, Grassley torched the Department of Justice for not taking sufficient action to properly investigate the allegations in the file. He stated, “Based on the facts known to Congress and the public, it’s clear that the Justice Department and the FBI haven’t nearly had the laser focus on the Biden family.”

Grassley also highlighted the DOJ’s use of tape recordings against former President Donald Trump, questioning U.S. Attorney Weiss’s approach to the alleged Joe and Hunter Biden recordings, which Grassley called “relevant to the high-stakes bribery scheme.”

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., threatened to charge Wray with contempt of Congress due to his previous reluctance to release the informant file. Ultimately, Wray reached an agreement with Comer to allow all members of the House Oversight Committee to review the file in exchange for withdrawing the charges, which had not been filed.

Comer and Grassley first learned of the file from a whistleblower who raised the concerns about the DOJ’s failure to investigative the alleged multi-million dollar bribery scheme involving Biden during his time as vice president during the Obama administration.

Grassley maintains that the release of the file is crucial, stating, “Getting a full and complete 1023 is critical for the American people to know and understand the true nature of the document and to hold the FBI and the Justice Department accountable.”

WHO Bloats Budget by $6.8B to Fight ‘Pandemics Fueled by Climate Change’

WHO Bloats Budget by $6.8B to Fight ‘Pandemics Fueled by Climate Change’

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) The World Health Organization received a record-high increase of $6.83 billion to its budget for 2024-2025 to fight “pandemics fueled by climate change” and “emergencies of all kinds.”

According to Natural News, the staggering increase in budget and the launch of a new “replenishment” initiative for the agency were approved during the 76th World Health Assembly in Switzerland, even though the WHA failed to come up with a final agreement on the pandemic treaty or amendments to the international health regulations.

On May 22, WHO member-states agreed to the budget hike — a 20% increase in assessed contributions (or membership fees). The countries vowed to contribute $1.15 billion through their membership fees. Additionally, the member-states and other contributors will donate $5.69 billion through their “voluntary contributions.” The recent rise in contributions was a “historic milestone,” according to WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

The leftist health despot smeared “anti-vaxxers” and blamed the unwashed for the WHO’s failure to jab 100% during its vaccine drives. He gushed praise for a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation-funded vax group “for reaching the incredible milestone of immunizing one billion children.”

The WHO’s approval of its titanic , nearly $7-billion funding increase, “illustrates that global health as a discipline has completely lost the plot and been taken over by people interested in making a profit,” said Dr. David Bell, a public health physician, biotech consultant and former director of Global Health Technologies at Intellectual Ventures Global Good Fund.

Among the WHO’s budget priorities are the expansion of universal health coverage, protection of the world from health emergencies and promotion of “better health and well-being for one billion and more people.” Also, the WHO claimed it will spend the funds on the support of countries, polio eradication, special programs and emergency operations.

The WHO also raises more funds from private individuals, attracts new donors and enhances “political support for the full financing of the base segment of WHO’s program budget through a year-long, inclusive engagement process that culminates in a high-visibility financing event.”

The WHO also announced that the organization will partner with the globalist Rockefeller Foundation “to strengthen the WHO Hub for Pandemic and Epidemic Intelligence.”

Rep. Comer: FBI Investigating Joe Biden for Bribery

(Ken Silva, Headline USA) The FBI is investigating President Joe Biden for bribery in relation to the secretive payments his family has received from foreign nationals, according to House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky.

Comer dropped the bombshell during an appearance Fox News, when he was responding to claims from House Oversight ranking member Jamie Raskin, D-N.Y., that the FBI had already looked into the Biden matter and decided it wasn’t worth an investigation.

“Jamie Raskin lied, and the FBI told us that it was still a part of an ongoing investigation,” Comer said.

“According to the FBI and according to Bill Barr, Joe Biden is currently under investigation for bribery. And this gets lost in translation because the media is so focused on Donald Trump.”

Comer’s committee has been investigating an alleged complex money laundering scheme that involved more than 20 companies, 12 banks and nine Biden relatives.

The committee published a 36-page report last month, presenting evidence that wire payments were made from corrupt Romanian and Chinese officials to Hunter Biden through intermediary companies, which were formed while Joe Biden was still vice president.

In one instance, Hunter Biden received 16 payments from a corrupt Romanian official while his father was still vice president. In another instance, Hunter’s company, Owasco P.C., received $100,000 from Chinese national Gongwen Dong through an apparent intermediary shell corporation.

More information is contained in a yet-to-be-released FBI FD-1023 form, which contains the allegations reported by a highly placed confidential informant against the Biden family.

After reviewing the FBI FD-1023 form, Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., said the informant has levied allegations directly at the president—and not at the various family members.

“There was a $5 million dollar payment made to Joe Biden, not Hunter Biden, Joe Biden ‘the Big Guy,’” Boebert said last week during an interview with Benny Johnson’s podcast.

Meanwhile, the FBI is purportedly worried that its highly placed confidential source might be killed if that person’s identity is revealed, according to Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla.

“The FBI is afraid their informant will be killed if unmasked, based on the info he has brought forward about the Biden family,” she said last week.
