You Stay Classy, Virginia Democrats!

The best part of this scandal involving Susanna Gibson, a Democrat running for a seat in the Virginia House of Delegates (and there are many good parts) is that Luke Rosiak of the Daily Wire apparently got paid to watch the candidate’s “HotWifeExperience” videos: A Democrat candidate for state office in Virginia appears to have […]

When the ‘Investigation’ Is a Cover-Up

First, the news: In a dramatic shift, Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Friday that Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss was being upgraded to a special counsel to investigate the Biden family finances. The decision means the probe into Hunter Biden’s taxes and his father’s potential dealings with his foreign clients will carry into the 2024 […]

Friday Evening News Dump: Biden ‘Speaks Out’ (But Not Really) About Cokehead Son’s Arkansas Love Child

Does anyone besides me remember Mike McCurry? He was White House press secretary during the Clinton administration.
