President Joe Biden embellished details while telling a story about the disappearance of his uncle during World War II‚ suggesting that he had been eaten by “cannibals” after getting “shot down” in Papua New Guinea.  Biden‚ who made the comments during a Wednesday visit to Scranton‚ Pennsylvania‚ was referring to his uncle Ambrose Finnegan‚ a second lieutenant who served in the Fifth Air Force during the war. Finnegan went missing on May 14‚ 1944‚ while on a flight from Los Negros Island to Nadzab Airfield in New Guinea.  “He got shot down in New Guinea and they never found the body because there used to be — there were a lot of cannibals‚ for real‚ in that part of New Guinea‚” Biden said during his speech to steelworkers.  Biden‚ 81‚ told a similar story earlier in the day when visiting a World War II memorial in Scranton.  “He got shot down in an area where there were a lot of cannibals at the time‚” the president said. “They never recovered his body‚ but the government went back when I went down there and they checked and found some parts of the plane.” Biden’s comments about the disappearance of his uncle do not align with official government records about the crash‚ which suggest that the plane went down due to mechanical failure and that three of the men onboard drowned. “For unknown reasons‚ this plane was forced to ditch in the ocean off the north coast of New Guinea‚” a U.S. military report on the incident says. “Both engines failed at low altitude‚ and the aircraft’s nose hit the water hard. Three men failed to emerge from the sinking wreck and were lost in the crash. One crew member survived and was rescued by a passing barge. An aerial search the next day found no trace of the missing aircraft or the lost crew members.” New Guinea was a key battleground during World War II as the Japanese sought to control the island for access to Australia‚ prompting fierce fighting through the island’s remote jungles. The island also has a history of cannibalism‚ with Michael Rockefeller‚ the son of Vice President Nelson Rockefeller‚ reportedly being eaten by a tribe of cannibals on the island in 1961. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP His remarks on Wednesday were not the first time he had made up details related to his relatives’ military service. During a speech in December 2022‚ Biden said that he got his uncle‚ Frank Biden‚ the Purple Heart for service during World War II. Biden claimed that as vice president‚ he awarded his uncle the Purple Heart for action during World War II in the Battle of the Bulge‚ saying the ceremony took place with his father and uncle. However‚ both Biden’s father and uncle had been dead for years before Biden became vice president in 2009. There was also no evidence that Biden’s uncle had been awarded the Purple Heart for his service.

Florida Senator Marco Rubio warned President Biden not to accept mass migration from Haiti‚ saying‚ “the job of elected officials is to protect their citizens first‚ not anyone else’s.” Rubio is intent on helping the Haitian people. After the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti‚ Congress passed the Haitian Economic Lift Program (HELP) Act to help rebuild Haiti’s domestic industry‚ but it expires in 2025. Last year‚ Rubio reintroduced the Act‚ saying‚ “It is in our national interest to help Haiti as it faces unimaginable hardships as a result of political corruption‚ natural disasters‚ and rampant crime. The HELP Act is an important bipartisan measure that will extend trade benefits and boost the country’s largest industry.” In mid-March‚ Rubio and fellow Florida GOP Senator Rick Scott wrote President Biden‚ “Floridians and the rest of the American public will not tolerate your administration again opening the floodgates for countless‚ unvetted foreign nationals to stream into our country‚ putting our national security at grave risk and creating untold public safety threats for our communities. We must consider this danger due to the numerous reports of gangs committing jailbreaks in Haiti and releasing thousands of dangerous criminals.” In his column discussing Haitian mass migration‚ Rubio noted that the Biden administration is pushing the Dominican Republic to accept three million Haitians fleeing their ravaged country. “This is unfair to the D.R.‚ which is a developing nation with limited resources‚ and which is already bearing significant burdens on Haiti’s behalf‚” Rubio wrote. “Anyone who doubts this should consider the fact that more than a third of all births in the D.R. are currently to Haitian citizens.” Then he addressed the possibility of mass migration from Haiti to the U.S.: “But encouraging illegal mass migration is also unfair to our country. The Biden Administration seems unaware that many Haitians view the D.R. as a stepping stone to Puerto Rico—and that a well-established smuggling ring to facilitate that journey already exists. Because our fellow Americans in Puerto Rico have their own fiscal constraints‚ illegal migrants that reach the U.S. territory would likely move on to the continental United States.” “Like most Americans‚ I recognize that what is happening in Haiti is horrible and tragic‚” Rubio continued. “The breakdown of law and order‚ the displacement of more than 300‚000 people‚ and the need of roughly five million for some form of aid—all of these are matters of grave concern. This is why I support the international peacekeeping mission that Kenya proposes to lead once Haiti has established a provisional government. In addition‚ I have reintroduced legislation to preserve U.S. trade benefits for Haitian manufacturers‚ which could prove a lifeline to legitimate Haitian businesses in this time of crisis.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “But‚ like most Americans‚ I also recognize that no country should experience illegal mass migration—not the D.R.‚ and not the United States. Illegal mass migration does no good for the nation people are migrating from‚” he stated. “When all able-bodied‚ law-abiding citizens leave their homeland‚ there is no one left to defend it from criminals and tyrants—and no one left to provide for the vulnerable who remain there. On a more fundamental level‚ though‚ I cannot support illegal mass migration because the job of elected officials is to protect their citizens first‚ not anyone else’s.”

“Succession” actor Brian Cox had some words of criticism for Joaquin Phoenix‚ saying he would have done a better job as the lead in Ridley Scott’s historical drama “Napoleon.” The 77-year-old actor called Phoenix’s performance “terrible” at London’s HistFest‚ per The Standard. “A truly terrible performance by Joaquin Phoenix‚” Cox said. “It really is appalling. I don’t know what he was thinking. I think it’s totally his fault and I don’t think Ridley Scott helps him. I would have played it a lot better than Joaquin Phoenix‚ I tell you that. You can say it’s good drama. No — it’s lies.” He added‚ “I think he’s well-named. Joaquin … wackeen … wacky. It’s a sort of wacky performance.” The “Succession” star also lamented historical inaccuracies present in films more generally. “’Braveheart’ is a load of nonsense‚” the actor said of the 1995 film starring Mel Gibson‚ which Cox also appeared in. “Mel Gibson was wonderful but it’s a load of lies. He never impregnated the French princess. It is a bollocks [sic] that film.” Scott previously responded harshly to French critics trashing his film. “Like all history‚ it’s been reported. Napoleon dies‚ then‚ 10 years later‚ someone writes a book. Then someone takes that book and writes another book and so‚ 400 years later there’s a lot of imagination [in history books]‚” Scott told The Times in November 2023‚ as The Daily Wire previously reported. “When I have issues with historians‚ I ask: ‘Excuse me‚ mate‚ were you there&;#63; No&;#63; Well‚ shut the f*** up then‚’” he added. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “Napoleon” has grossed $221 million worldwide and received mixed reviews from critics. The film was  praised for having realistic battle sequences and performances‚ but was criticized for the narrative’s historical inaccuracies. It was nominated for Best Production Design‚ Best Costume Design‚ and Best Visual Effects at the 96th Academy Awards. Scott said he was torn between Phoenix and another unnamed actor to play the main role‚ but was “blown away” by Phoenix’s performance in “Joker” (2019) and ultimately decided that Phoenix would be an “amazing asset” for the film. 

Google fired 28 employees on Wednesday after they occupied an executive’s office in California and protested in the company’s New York building to demand the company stop doing business with Israel. “They took over office spaces‚ defaced our property‚ and physically impeded the work of other Googlers‚” Google vice president of global security‚ Chris Rackow‚ wrote in a company-wide memo. “Their behavior was unacceptable‚ extremely disruptive‚ and made coworkers feel threatened.”  The protesting employees were initially placed on administrative leave while an investigation took place‚ and others were arrested after refusing to leave for more than eight hours. UPDATE: Google fired 28 of the protesting employees‚ according to a company wide memo by Google VP of global security Chris Rackow. “If you’re one of the few who are tempted to think we’re going to overlook conduct that violates our policies‚ think again.” https://t.co/6FhPmK214J pic.twitter.com/zjP25LzWnn — Kassy Akiva (@KassyDillon) April 18‚ 2024 The protests were announced in internal emails to employees that shared a list of demands‚ including that Google drop its $1.2 billion contract with Israel for Project Nimbus‚ a cloud-computing project of the Israeli government. “Behavior like this has no place in our workplace and we will not tolerate it‚” Rackow continued. “It clearly violates multiple policies that all employees must adhere to … we are a place of business and every Googler is expected to read our policies and apply them to how they conduct themselves and communicate in our workplace.” Google employees getting arrested in the company’s Sunnyvale‚ CA office for occupying the office of an executive to call for the company to terminate a contract with Israel. Rackow stated that most of Google’s roughly 180‚000 employees “do the right thing‚” adding a warning: “If you’re one of the few who are tempted to think we’re going to overlook conduct that violates our policies‚ think again.” The protesting employees who occupied the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian livestreamed their protest on Twitch which showed them getting arrested by police after refusing to leave. “It’s getting kinda late‚” the man says. “I wanted to ask you‚ you know‚ to cooperate‚ you’ve been placed on admin leave and we’d like to see if you’d just voluntarily [leave] it’s been a while. Can you do that for us&;#63;” Letter sent to Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian‚ demanding the company drop its contract with Israel. When he threatens to call law enforcement‚ employees state that they understand. Seconds later‚ police walk into the office and detain them all before the livestream cuts off. The demands made by protesters included that Google cease all “business with the Israeli apartheid government and military‚” stop the “harassment‚ intimidation‚ bullying‚ and silencing” of Palestinian and Muslim employees‚ and address the “health and safety crisis” among workers who are rattled over their labor being used to “enable a genocide.” The terminations appear to be Google’s first hard steps to clamp down on the apparent rampant anti-Semitism throughout Google’s workforce. In February‚ The Daily Wire reported on internal anti-Semitic incidents taking place at Google‚ including the words “kill all Jews” found written on a bathroom wall inside its offices‚ and a Jewish employee being assaulted by anti-Israel protesters on one of their campuses. The Daily Wire also reported that a group of employees attempted to hijack an International Women’s Day event to bash Israel. Google employees in New York and California protested the company’s Project Nimbus contract with Israel. Now-former Google employee Kate Sim who sent an email to thousands of employees announcing her participation in the protest was also fired‚ according to her Twitter. “Terminated worker here‚” she tweeted. “Listen when employers tell you exactly who they are. McCarthyism is alive and well. Look how terrified they are of worker power Solidarity always we’ll keep us safe when we fight together.” In her email‚ Sim accused Google leadership of lying about the purpose of Project Nimbus and profiting off of genocide. “Our execs have blatantly lied to us‚ as they continue war profiteering from this AI-powered war – a deplorable use of innovative technology condemned by UN experts‚” Sim wrote‚ adding that in the last six months‚ she “saw how AI-powered military technology are killing children at an unprecedented scale.” Zelda Montes‚ who also sent an email announcing protest participation was also fired‚ according to sources. Former Google employee Zelda Montes announced plans to participate in an anti-Israel protest in an email sent to thousands of coworkers. No Tech for Apartheid‚ the organization that helped organize the protests‚ called the terminations “illegal” and said workers who did not participate in the protest were also fired.  “Google just fired over two dozen workers‚ including those among us who did not directly participate in yesterday’s historic‚ bicoastal 10-hour sit-in protests‚” the group wrote on Instagram. “This flagrant act of retaliation is a clear indication that Google values its $1.2 billion contract with the genocidal Israeli government and military more than its own workers.” The group denied accusations of harassment and called Google CEO Sundar Pichai and Kurian “genocide profiteers.” “The truth is clear: Google is terrified of workers coming together and calling for accountability and transparency from our bosses‚” the group continued. “They are choosing to reveal the falsity of Google’s ‘open culture’ in order to get rid of a threat. The corporation is trying to downplay and discredit our power.” The group added that the firings will not stop them‚ and “only serve as further fuel for the growth of this movement.” “Make no mistake‚ we will continue organizing until the company drops Project Nimbus and stops powering this genocide‚” the statement concluded. Google did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The daughter of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MI)‚ Irsa Hirsi‚ was suspended from Barnard College for taking part in the anti-Israel protests at its partner school‚ Columbia University‚ she announced in a social media post. “I’m an organizer with CU Apartheid Divest @ColumbiaSJP‚ in my 3 years at @BarnardCollege i have never been reprimanded or received any disciplinary warnings‚” Hirsi tweeted. “I just received notice that i am 1 of 3 students suspended for standing in solidarity with Palestinians facing a genocide.” In a follow-up tweet‚ Hirsi admitted that she took part in the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment‚” which consists of protesters with tents occupying part of the university’s campus‚ a violation of school rules. “Those of us in Gaza Solidarity Encampment will not be intimidated‚” Hirsi said. “We will stand resolute until our demands are met. our demands include divestment from companies complicit in genocide‚ transparency of @Columbia’s investments and FULL amnesty for all students facing repression.” Yesterday‚ Omar tweeted that she hopes the students who were being threatened with arrest and suspension are not “criminalized‚” without disclosing that her daughter was one of the students. It’s unclear whether she was aware of her daughter’s participation. Columbia has always had an incredible history of students fighting for a more just world and it’s good to see that tradition continue.

After being threatened by their administration‚ the students encouraged others to protest outside of the school in solidarity. Many agitators heeded the call and showed up‚ lit flares‚ and some were arrested‚ Fox News reported. Columbia’s president along with other representatives of the university testified before Congress on Wednesday‚ claiming that they are taking steps to improve the climate on campus. Columbia University and Barnard College did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Members of independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s own family‚ including his sister‚ have chosen to support President Biden and will make a public endorsement of him on Thursday. “More than a dozen members of the extended Kennedy family” will participate in the endorsement‚ CNN reports. RFK’s sister Rory‚ who has worked as a director and producer for HBO‚ has already called her brother’s candidacy “dangerous.” Another sister‚ Kerry Kennedy‚ will reportedly call Biden “a champion for all the rights and freedoms that my father and uncles stood for” while attacking former President Donald Trump with claims such as “Donald Trump is running to take us backwards‚ attacking the most basic rights and freedoms that are core to who we are as Americans … He has said he will be a dictator on day one‚ even saying he wants to try to suspend the Constitution.” “I can only imagine how Donald Trump’s outrageous lies and behavior would have horrified my father‚ Robert F. Kennedy‚ who proudly served as Attorney General of the United States‚ and honored his pledge to uphold the law and protect the country‚” she will reportedly add. RFK Jr.‚ whose campaign manager is Amaryllis Fox Kennedy‚ his daughter-in-law‚ responded to the news of the endorsement with some positive comments about his “big family.” “I hear some of my family will be endorsing President Biden today‚” he said. “I am pleased they are politically active – it’s a family tradition. We are divided in our opinions but united in our love for each other. I hold this as a possibility for America too. Can we disagree without hating our opponents&;#63; Can we restore civility and respect to public discourse&;#63; I think we can.” The candidate discussed the complexities of his famous family earlier this month. “I have a big family‚ about 105 cousins on the last time we counted‚” he said. “I have a big family. I don’t know anybody in America who’s got a family who agrees with him on everything.” Biden and RFK Jr. differ significantly on some key issues‚ including censorship‚ immigration‚ and Israel. Kennedy has stated that Biden is a bigger threat to democracy than Trump‚ contending‚ “I can make the argument that President Biden is the much worse threat to democracy‚ and the reason for that is President Biden is the first candidate in history – the first president in history that has used the federal agencies to censor political speech‚ so to censor his opponent.” RFK Jr. has also attacked Biden’s immigration policy‚ saying‚ “It’s astonishing that the Border Patrol is utterly demoralized. You could stop this very quickly. And it doesn’t seem to be any interest in the Biden administration doing it.” Kennedy differs from Biden on supporting Israel; he has dismissed calls for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas‚ saying in mid-March that each previous ceasefire “has been used by Hamas to rearm‚ to rebuild and then launch another surprise attack. So what would be different this time&;#63;” He added‚ “Any other nation that was adjacent to a neighboring nation that was bombing it with rockets‚ sending commandos over to murder its citizens‚ pledging itself to murder every person in that nation and annihilate it‚ would go and level it with aerial bombardment. But Israel is a moral nation. So it didn’t do that.” RFK Jr.’s father‚ Robert Kennedy‚ had been a staunch supporter of Israel even before it was declared a state. He visited there one month before it declared its independence‚ writing‚ that it is “already a truly great modern example of the birth of a nation with the primary ingredients of dignity and self-respect.” He added‚ “If a Jewish state is formed it will be the only remaining stabilizing factor in the near and far [sic for Near and Middle] East.”

Google CEO Sundar Pichai broke his silence on Thursday regarding the firing of 28 employees who occupied an executive’s office in California and protested in the company’s New York building to demand the company terminate a contract with Israel. “Ultimately we are a workplace and our policies and expectations are clear: this is a business‚ and not a place to act in a way that disrupts coworkers or makes them feel unsafe‚ to attempt to use the company as a personal platform‚ or to fight over disruptive issues or debate politics‚” Pichai said in a company-wide email on Thursday.  “This is too important a moment as a company for us to be distracted‚” he added. “When we come to work‚ our goal is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. That supersedes everything else and I expect us to act with a focus that reflects that.” Email by Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai obtained by The Daily Wire where he addresses the anti-Israel protests at the company. The termination of the employees was announced in a company-wide memo on Wednesday by Google vice president of global security‚ Chris Rackow who described their actions as “unacceptable” and “extremely disruptive.” Several of the employees were seen being arrested on their livestream after refusing to leave the offices for more than eight hours.

On Thursday‚ a band of more than a dozen House lawmakers voted against a resolution condemning Iran for its drone and missile attack on Israel over the weekend. The measure passed with overwhelming support — by a 404-14 tally — while 13 lawmakers did not vote. Among those who opposed the resolution were 13 Democrats‚ including members of the leftist “Squad‚” and one Republican. They included: Reps. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY)‚ Cori Bush (D-MO)‚ Greg Casar (D-TX)‚ Jonathan Jackson (D-IL)‚ Pramila Jayapal (D-WA)‚ Hank Johnson (D-GA)‚ Barbara Lee (D-CA)‚ Summer Lee (D-PA)‚ Rashida Tlaib (D-MI)‚ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY)‚ Ilhan Omar (D-MN)‚ Ayanna Pressley (D-MA)‚ Delia Ramirez (D-IL)‚ and Thomas Massie (R-KY).

This is a blatant attempt to distract from their own incompetence‚” Ocasio-Cortez said. “The country and the world need real leadership from the House of Representatives in this moment‚ not resolutions designed purposefully to increase the likelihood of a deadly regional war or worse‚” she added. “I will oppose any cynical effort to further inflame tensions‚ destroy a path to peace in the region‚ and further divide the American people.” Massie appeared to also express concerns about the prospect of escalation in the Middle East. After Iran launched its barrage against Israel‚ which the United States and other countries helped fend off‚ he posted to X‚ “I’m against the next war already.” Beyond condemning Iran’s attack on Israel‚ the resolution that passed on Thursday also says the House stands with Israel as it defends itself against Iran’s attacks and reaffirms the United States’ commitment to Israel’s security; supports Israel’s “right to self-defense” and “right to respond to this aggression”; commends the U.S. military‚ the United Kingdom‚ France‚ and Jordan for intercepting Iranian missiles and drones; and urges full enforcement of U.S. sanctions and export controls against Iran. Reps. Tom Kean (R-NJ) and Jared Moskowitz (D-FL)‚ both members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee‚ introduced the resolution together in a show of bipartisanship. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “Today‚ the House passed my resolution‚ Condemning Iran’s unprecedented drone and missile attack on Israel‚” Kean said in a post to X.  “This resolution clearly and concisely condemns Iran’s attack‚ reaffirms Israel’s right to self defense‚ and states that Congress stands with Israel.” The House passed a number of measures this week regarding Iran and Israel‚ including sanctions and a resolution condemning the “From the river to the sea‚ Palestine will be free” slogan as anti-Semitic‚ in votes where Massie similarly joined with a minority of Democrats who opposed them. Lawmakers in the House are now considering foreign assistance legislation‚ including a roughly $26 billion bill for Israel and humanitarian aid‚ with final votes expected to happen over the weekend.

Planned Parenthood performed more abortions in 2021 and 2022 despite a massive decrease in patients‚ according to its latest annual report. The country’s largest abortion provider reported that it performed 392‚715 abortions in the fiscal year ending in fall 2022. That total is more than 18‚000‚ or 5% higher‚ than the number of abortions performed the previous year‚ according to an analysis by the Charlotte Lozier Institute. It’s also a 20% increase over the organization’s past 10 annual reports. Abortions made up more than 97% of Planned Parenthood’s pregnancy resolution services. Prenatal care‚ miscarriage care‚ and adoption referrals made up the other less than 3%. All in all‚ the abortion provider performed 228 abortions for every adoption referral‚ a higher ratio than each of the past 10 years. “Planned Parenthood’s business is abortion‚ abortion and more abortion‚” said Marjorie Dannenfelser‚ president of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America. “Their annual report shocks the conscience‚ showing that they ended nearly 393‚000 American lives in a single year. This puts abortions performed by Planned Parenthood in the top four leading causes of death in the United States‚ after heart disease‚ cancer and COVID-19‚” Dannenfelser said. The annual reports “consistently provide solid evidence that Planned Parenthood continues to prioritize abortion‚” said Michael New‚ a social scientist and senior associate scholar at the Charlotte Lozier Institute‚ which analyzed the report. While abortions were spiking‚ Planned Parenthood was serving fewer patients. The report shows a total of 2.05 million patients over this period‚ 80‚000 fewer people than the previous year. Since 2010‚ Planned Parenthood’s total services have plummeted 17%. Prenatal services are down 80% since peaking in 2009‚ and contraceptive services are down 39%. Cancer prevention services‚ which include breast exams and pap tests‚ have declined by 71%. Despite the decrease in patients and services‚ however‚ the abortion giant’s total revenue and taxpayer funding have climbed. Planned Parenthood reported more than $2 billion in income in its latest annual report‚ an increase from the previous year. Taxpayer funding has increased 43% since 2010‚ reaching $699.3 million in the latest report‚ nearly $2 million a day‚ and making up 34% of the organization’s total revenue. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The abortion provider also experienced a huge 44% jump in private donations for a total of $997.5 million. Planned Parenthood’s total revenue over expenses was $178.6 million. Pregnant women who walk into Planned Parenthood are “sold an abortion” 97% of the time rather than “helped to keep their child‚” and meanwhile the abortion provider’s political arm spends money lobbying the federal government against “commonsense policies like protecting babies born alive after failed abortions‚” Dannenfelser said.
