ICYMI: CNN Thunderdome Implodes into Apocalyptic Wasteland Over Hunter Pardon

The tire fire inside a dumpster fire that is CNN NewsNight showed within minutes Monday of its nearly 20-minute opening block why it’s an insult to civil discourse as, led by the smarmy host Abby Phillip, conservatives Scott Jennings and former Congressman Scott Taylor (R-VA) were shouted down for calling out the lies and hypocrisy of President Biden for pardoning son Hunter. Jennings drew the ire of the other panelists — Phillip, Congressman Jamaal Bowmawn (D-NY), and leftist commentator Leigh McGowan — for his usual crime of sharing facts (click “expand”):     JENNINGS: NBC News reported that the President and his top aides met this summer and decided two things, that they were going to keep this option open, that they were going to publicly maintain that they would not pardon Hunter Biden through statements from Joe Biden and statements from the White House press secretary. They had a meeting, they coordinated the lie, I guess for political purposes, and now that he’s leaving office, he is going back on what he told the American people. This isn’t simply changing your mind. This is just fulfilling what you always intended to do. No Republican is shocked that he is doing this. What I am shocked at is the duplicity of the president of the United States and his top aides to come together and form this lie and stick to it this entire time. We all knew it was ridiculous and now the American people are seeing what a disgrace he really is. PHILLIP: Scott! MCGOWAN: I think it’s incredibly rich to have you say that people got together and they were duplicitous — JENNINGS: I didn’t say it! MCGOWAN: — and they created a lie. JENNINGS: NBC News said it. NBC News said it. MCGOWAN: I’m saying they created a lie because —  JENNINGS: NBC News. MCGOWAN: — honestly, what the other side has been saying for years, what — what you guys ran on for president is — was multiple lies. I mean, if — Eric Holder said it right, I think, he said if Hunter’s name was Joe Smith, this case would probably have never even gone to trial — right — that it was always a political witch hunt, and it was always a political witch hunt. JENNINGS: Who’s Justice Department brought the case? MCGOWAN: And it was always — PHILLIP: But wasn’t it — to Scott’s point, I mean, wasn’t it a lie? I mean, you can defend it, but wasn’t it a lie that he was not going to pardon his son? MCGOWAN: No. I believe the circumstances have changed. FORMER CONGRESSMAN SCOTT TAYLOR (R-VA): What circumstances have changed? McGowan then waged this cockamamie drivel that the President genuinely changed his mind about not pardoning his son because “we have now have a president coming into office who’s talking about firing squads, who’s talking about running people around the country and making sure that everyone who’s his enemy is going to be punished and Hunter Biden lied about his drug use on a government forum when he was buying a gun and he failed to file and pay taxes when he was a drug addict.” Representing the sane part of America, this caused Jennings to role his eyes and throw his head back in disgust, triggering a lifetime of memes (and even led to Jennings changing the banner photo of his X profile). Taylor was thrown through the fire for the transgression of pointing out Hunter received an 11-year “full and unconditional pardon” for all the things on his laptop, including drugs and sex and possibly “hundreds of crimes.” Amid shouts from Bowman, McGowan, and Phillip, Taylor pointed to the fact that the pardon started in “January 2014, just when, of course, he joined the board of Burisma, so, in my opinion, I think you’ll see more pardons” of those “actually tied to some of the things that potentially showed that Joe Biden benefited from monies that were coming out of” his business dealings. Phillip clutched her pearls in her pathetically shocked voice, declaring Taylor was “losing” her “because the Trump administration had an opportunity to investigate it. They could not verify the things that you’re alluding to.” Jennings jumped in for an assist to help Taylor: “They tried to, and he got impeached over it. They impeached Donald Trump over the investigation that Hunter Biden has now gotten a pardon for.” Bowman also clutched pearls as the failing congressman looks for a new job, claiming Hunter Biden was the victim of the “witch hunt” and only “charged because his name is Hunter Biden, not because his name is Hunter Smith or Hunter Jones.”     Jennings hilariously tried to ask him “who runs the Justice Department,” but Phillip put a squash to that smackdown. What felt like an eternity later, Jennings stated the clear fact that “[t]he Department of Justice investigations, indictments into Hunter Biden, this has nothing to do with the Republican Party” seeing as how the Republicans aren’t even in charge of the executive branch. Obama U.S. Attorney Elliot Williams tried to have it both ways, accusing Bowman and Jennings of equally “using hyped up rhetoric,” but largely sided with Bowman that Hunter Biden was unfairly prosecuted. McGowan and Phillip tried to change the subject, using whataboutism to argue Trump’s pardons in his first term were far worse. Fortunately, Jennings stepped into lower the boom (click “expand”):     MCGOWAN: — into an example because he’s Hunter Biden. And Joe Biden is saying, you know what? That’s enough. We’ve done enough. You’re going to look 11 years back into his life. You’re going to look into his future. You’re going to make sure that you ruin the life of my last and only son — BOWMAN: This is why —  MCGOWAN: — and we have to remember — can I just say, we have to remember that Trump’s pardon list from his last administration when he was leaving office included literal bank robbers, drug dealers, embezzlers, murderers. You can go to justice.gov and see all the people that Trump — PHILLIP: Oh, Okay. Let me ask you this, Scott, because this is a fair point. Donald Trump pardoned Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, George Papadopoulos, Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn. Joe Biden’s also not the first person to pardon a family member, Hunter Biden, Charles Kushner, Donald Trump did that one too, Roger Clinton was pardoned, President Clinton’s half brother. Emily Todd Helm, Abraham Lincoln’s wife’s half sister was pardoned. So, are we — are we saying we have a problem with all of those things? JENNINGS: How many — how many of — how many of the Trump children that we were told are corrupt —  PHILLIP: No, no. I know. JENNINGS: — that got — needed pardons? Zero. PHILLIP: Scot — Scott — okay — MCGOWAN: [INAUDIBLE SHOUTING] — $2 billion from the Saudis. PHILLIP: — to your point — to your point — to your point, Scott, the Trump children did not face federal charges, to your point. I’m going to give you that. But the person on here, Charles Kushner, who was convicted for a crime. JENNINGS: Did he go to jail? PHILLIP: Yes. MCGOWAN: Yes. PHILLIP: But he was given a pardon. JENNINGS: Oh, he served — PHILLIP: But he was pardoned. MCGOWAN: He was living in an Alabama apartment. JENNINGS: — he served time? MCGOWAN: He was in prison. It’s completely different crimes. JENNINGS: It strikes me — it strikes me that one of the arguments against this pardon — MCGOWAN: He’s literally moved from a jail cell in Alabama. PHILLIP: So, you didn’t answer the question. Are those things — JENNINGS: — what? No, in my mind they’re not equivalent. They’re not equivalent in any way, shape, or form. PHILLIP: — guys, hold on a second. JENNINGS: — but — it strikes — and  you’re bringing up an issue and you brought it up, so I want to address it, this idea that Hunter Biden is being selectively prosecuted. Now, one of the core criticisms of the Republicans and Trump specifically during the Biden years is that the Department of Justice is engaging in selective prosecution investigations of Republicans and today, what I hear Democrats saying is, you know what? You’re right. Joe Biden’s DOJ does engage in selective prosecutions, which is exactly why we need people to come in and clean it out now. There seems to be bipartisan consensus. Select — selective prosecutions! McGowan tried to go down the sympathy route, lamenting Trump somehow rigged the justice system and “changed” “the rules of the game,” so the President was right to save his son. Williams had a moment of sanity, conceding Joe shouldn’t have spent months saying he wouldn’t pardon his son since there was always a chance Trump would win in November. Jennings agreed and noted Joe had a “given such an oddly specific denial numerous times,” signaling the age-old issues in politics of “corruption, partisanship, [and] grifting.” Once again, Phillip lost her noodle, arguing Jennings was disingenuous for saying the President should have been honest since “either way, you would have been up in arms.” Amid even more cross-talk with Bowman trying to inject Trump’s criminal trials and — wait for it — January 6 into the equation, Taylor did some schooling of his own with the fact that those things have “nothing to do with” Hunter Biden. He didn’t get very far as Phillip shouted from a proverbial fainting couch about the need for “context” disguised as punditry that Trump’s a very bad man (click “expand”): TAYLOR: That’s a nice story, but it has nothing to do with what we’re talking about. Just today, the special prosecutor in Hunter Biden’s case came out and refuted the allegations in President Biden saying that it’s a political witch hunt. He said there’s no evidence whatsoever of that, of a political witch hunt. This is the special prosecutor in Hunter Biden’s case. He came out and said that today. In my opinion, like I said, I’m a father. I understand why he did it, but he absolutely lied numerous times. He had a lot of folks from your side of the aisle. BOWMAN: No change of mind, man? TAYLOR: Hold on a second. BOWMAN: You don’t change your perspective based on new context? TAYLOR: A lot of — PHILLIP: Hold on. Hold on. Let’s let him finish his sentence. BOWMAN: What are we talking about? TAYLOR: There’s nothing new here. But one of the things that he did do — [BOWMAN LAUGHS] — to say, was he had folks from your side of the aisle come on this program, not this program, excuse me, on CNN, this network many, many times saying he’s not going to do it, he’s not going to do it and they look pretty bad today — PHILLIP: Okay, yeah. Well, okay — let me give the context — TYALOR: — of course and I think, let me just let me just finish that point. One of the biggest things that this does, the country is already — and you mentioned a little bit of this, the country’s already skeptical of the integrity of government and all this does is undermine it even more. PHILLIP: — okay. I — I sort of take that point. I mean, here’s — here’s the thing. I think there’s a critique about how President Biden did this. I think the idea that suddenly he was the one to abuse the pardon power does not pass the smell test, but on this question of what has really changed, I mean, haven’t we known all along that Donald Trump was going to put in place people at the Justice Department if he won, which we always knew was a possibility, who would go after Trump’s political enemies, who would go after the so-called deep state? That was a known thing. So, I don’t see how that context has really changed. We’ve already known that. TAYLOR: I think you’re conflating a little bit of retribution with accountability. PHILLIP: Well — well — JENNINGS: Accountability. TAYLOR: That’s what you’re conflating here. That’s what continues to be conflated. PHILLIP: I’m just saying, Scott, seeing it from, you know, Congressman Bowman’s perspective, if the concern is all these people are going to go after Hunter Biden, it was a known thing that that could happen if Donald Trump was elected. Nothing has changed. Jennings made an attempt at turning the tables back towards some balance, asking McGowan and Bowman if, since they believe the Justice Department is corrupt, Attorney General Merrick Garland should be canned by President Biden. Of course, neither lefty would answer him (click “expand”) JENNINGS: Can I ask a question? Do you all think that Merrick Garland should be fired because of this corruption at the DOJ? MCGOWAN: Again, I don’t think there’s corruption at the DOJ. I think the concern is the future DOJ is going to be corrupted. JENNINGS: Because — You think there’s corruption there. You think this was a politicized witch hunt — MCGOWAN: No. JENNINGS: — but the attorney general should be held accountable. No? [MCGOWAN SIGHS] BOWMAN: These charges were trumped up because his name is Hunter Biden. JENNINGS: But wouldn’t that — wouldn’t you — if you were the president, wouldn’t you relieve the attorney general? MCGOWAN: He had congressional — PHILLIP: Hold on. MCGOWAN: — you were — BOWMAN: Let’s consult — let’s consult our legal expert at the desk. WILLIAMS: No, I just — JENNINGS: If you thought there was — BOWMAN: Please repeat what you said earlier. JENNINGS: — you thought there was corruption — WILLIAMS: I am not talking about corruption at the Justice Department. I don’t believe it’s fair. BOWMAN: [INAUDIBLE] JENNINGS: — no, I’m saying if — if someone — WILLIAMS: Don’t pull me into your fight about [INAUDIBLE] BOWMAN: Hundreds of thousands of people have misrepresented themselves on these applications, never charged. Hunter Biden does. WILLIAMS: No. I think, I think that is an unassailable fact — well, pardon me — I know it is an unassailable fact that hundreds of thousands of people misrepresent information on gun applications and are not charged.

Dems flip final congressional seat 1 month after Election Day

Democratic challenger Adam Gray defeated Republican incumbent Rep. John Duarte in California's 13th congressional district on Tuesday, one month after Election Day. Gray unseated the freshman GOP lawmaker by just 187 votes, making this rematch a reversal of their 2022 face-off. California's 13th congressional district was the final congressional race to be called, solidifying the partisan split in the House. Republicans now hold 220 seats while Democrats hold 215. The Republican majority is expected to be even slimmer at the start of the 119th Congress due to three expected vacancies. "I'm honored to become the Congressman-elect for California's 13th Congressional District," Gray said in an X post on Tuesday. "The final results confirm this district is ready for independent and accountable leadership that always puts the Valley's people ahead of partisan politics." "But the work has just begun," Gray continued. "In Washington, I'll work every day to deliver the resources that the Valley needs: clean water, better educational opportunities, stronger infrastructure, and more good-paying jobs. And you can count on me to build bipartisan relationships to accomplish these goals." Democrats also flipped California's 45th congressional district, with Democratic challenger Derek Tran defeating incumbent Republican Rep. Michelle Steel, chipping away at the GOP's already slim majority in the House. The Republican majority is expected to be even slimmer at the start of the 119th Congress due to three expected vacancies. Former Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida resigned in November amid his bid for attorney general, although he later withdrew. Republican Rep. Mike Waltz of Florida is also set to resign on January 20, Inauguration Day, after being tapped by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as national security adviser in the upcoming administration. Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York was also recruited by Trump to serve as ambassador to the United Nations, although she has not yet confirmed when she will resign. The two Florida seats are set to be filled via special election on April 1. If all three seats are simultaneously vacant, Republicans will be operating with a slim majority of 217 while Democrats hold 215 seats. Under these circumstances, Republicans could afford to lose only one single vote from their party. Like Blaze News?

'Fox & Friends' hosts expose how 'losers' at NBC News botched latest Pete Hegseth report

Former co-workers of defense secretary nominee and combat veteran Pete Hegseth are going on the record to say the latest report from NBC News about Hegseth's alleged behavior at Fox News is false and that the way the reporters wrote the story proves it. The report from NBC News claims, via anonymous sources, that Hegseth's excessive drinking habits concerned people who worked on "Fox & Friends Weekend." Co-host Will Cain, who worked with Hegseth until he was nominated, told NBC News on X, "Your story is horsesh*t. ... Put my name on it. On the record. It’ll be your only on the record source. Signed, the guy who sat next to him for 8 hours every week for five years starting at 6am." 'Running a hit piece on a man that's solely based on anonymous sources is cowardly and isn't journalism.' Fellow host Rachel Campos-Duffy revealed the NBC News reporters did not reach out to her for comment, even though she would be a good source to say whether the claims were true. "The losers at [NBC News] never reached out to me either. [Will Cain] is right - your story IS horsesh*t. You now have 2 people who sat next to him 8+ hours a week on the record," Campos-Duffy said. "Will you retract or correct your story?" "I've guest co-hosted with him numerous times before. Not once did this happen. Not once have I heard this from others. This is such a disgusting and false smear. It is wrong and malicious," Fox News contributor Lisa Boothe posted on X. It's not just on-air talent who have come to Hegseth's defense. Breanna Morello, a former producer at Fox News, said, "I've never heard a negative remark about Hegseth--until now." Morello wrote a letter that she is sending to all senators to help set the record straight because "running a hit piece on a man that's solely based on anonymous sources is cowardly and isn't journalism." William Case, another producer, said, "I worked with Pete Hegseth for YEARS --on set, in the control room, in the newsroom, in taxis, on boats, on location. This is all LOLOL. The F&F staff all LOVED Pete, and women of every rank thought he was just the greatest thing (oh the stories)."Case shared a picture of Hegseth holding Case's child and added, "I don't let problematic alcoholics hold my children." The number of Fox News hosts and frequent guests who worked with Hegseth for years and who went on the record to refute NBC News' reporting is nearly at 20 at the time of writing. While on Capitol Hill to have more meetings with senators, Hegseth said he talked with President-elect Donald Trump Wednesday morning and that Trump told him to "keep fighting." Hegseth further said he is not withdrawing his name from consideration. Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!

This montage of Kash Patel speaking truth (and naming names) is a MUST WATCH

If you Google Kash Patel — Donald Trump’s pick for FBI director — you’ll see that the word “controversial” comes up over and over again. What makes Kash Patel so controversial? Could it be because the man fearlessly speaks the truth and names names while doing it? Dave Rubin plays a video montage of Patel doing interviews on various podcasts during which his brutal candor is on full display. And let’s just say it’s crystal clear why the media insists he’s controversial. In the first clip, Patel detailed his plans to let the American people in on the truth that the current government keeps hidden from them. “We need a 24/7 declassification office rolling papers out 24/7, and not just like JFK and not just 9/11,” he said. He then clarified that he “believes wholeheartedly in the classified system of information,” but he also knows that it has been “abused by these corrupt officials in government to hide the truth and enact more corrupt activity.” In the second clip, Patel met with Blaze Media’s very own Glenn Beck. The subject of Epstein’s little black book came up. “Who has Jeffery Epstein’s black book?” Glenn asked bluntly. “The FBI,” said Patel, clarifying that it’s “under direct control of the director of the FBI.” In the third clip, Patel went into even more detail about the FBI’s refusal to release the Epstein list. “Why is the FBI protecting the greatest pederast — the largest scale pederast — in human history?” the host asked. “Simple — because of who’s on that list. You don’t think that Bill Gates is lobbying Congress night and day to prevent the disclosure of that list?” Patel said plainly before lambasting House Republicans for not being able to get the list released. In the fourth clip, Patel disclosed his plans for the FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. “I'd shut down the FBI Hoover building on day one and reopen it the next day as a museum of the Deep State, and I’d take the 7,000 employees that work in that building and send them across America to chase down criminals. Go be cops,” he stated. “Same thing with DOJ. What are all these people doing here? Looking for their next government promotion; looking for their next fancy government title; looking for their parachute out of government,” he added, emphasizing the need to “shrink government.” To hear Dave’s thoughts on Kash Patel and see the video montage of his podcast interviews, watch the clip above.

Federal judge spots 'unconstitutional' problem with Hunter Biden pardon — then he tells the truth where Biden refused

Federal judge spots 'unconstitutional' problem with Hunter Biden pardon — then he tells the truth where Biden refused

The federal judge overseeing Hunter Biden's tax crimes case is accusing President Joe Biden of "rewriting history" and unconstitutional behavior.On Sunday, Biden shocked the political world when he announced a "full and unconditional pardon" for Hunter Biden. The pardon was not only shocking because Biden repeatedly promised that he would not pardon his son, but it raised eyebrows because of its comprehensiveness: Biden pardoned his son for any crime he committed or may have committed from Jan. 1, 2014, through Dec. 1, 2024.To justify the pardon, Biden claimed Hunter was "selectively" and "unfairly" prosecuted, asserting that Hunter "was treated differently" and is a victim of "selective prosecution." The only reason the prosecution was brought, the president claimed, is because Hunter is his son.But U.S. District Judge Mark Scarsi said Tuesday none of what President Biden claimed is true.In a five-page opinion, Scarsi condemned Hunter Biden's lawyers for not submitting to the court a "true and correct copy of the pardon" in its motion to dismiss the charges against their client. Instead of the pardon, Hunter's attorneys simply provided the court a link to President Biden's statement about the pardon.That statement was the central issue in the judge's order because, according to Scarsi, the "representations" in Biden's statement "stand in tension with the case record."'Nowhere does the Constitution give the president the authority to rewrite history.'In other words, Scarsi believes Biden is lying — and he used Hunter's own admissions to prove it.First, Scarsi addressed Biden's insinuation that Hunter is "among those individuals who untimely paid taxes due to addiction.""He is not," the judge declared. "In his pretrial filings, Mr. Biden represented that he 'was severely addicted to alcohol and drugs' 'through May 2019.' Upon pleading guilty to the charges in this case, Mr. Biden admitted that he engaged in tax evasion after this period of addiction by wrongfully deducting as business expenses items he knew were personal expenses, including luxury clothing, escort services, and his daughter’s law school tuition.""And Mr. Biden admitted that he 'had sufficient funds available to him to pay some or all of his outstanding taxes when they were due,' but that he did not make payments toward his tax liabilities even 'well after he had regained his sobriety,' instead electing to 'spen[d] large sums to maintain his lifestyle' in 2020," Scarsi explained.Second, Scarsi obliterated Biden's claim that "no reasonable person" would have brought criminal charges against Hunter, noting that multiple federal judges already rejected that argument and that Biden's own Justice Department initiated the prosecution."In the president’s estimation, this legion of federal civil servants, the undersigned included, are unreasonable people," Scarsi wrote.Finally, Scarsi ripped into Biden and the pardon itself.While noting the Constitution does vest the president with "broad authority" to grant pardons, Scarsi explained that "nowhere does the Constitution give the president the authority to rewrite history."The chief problem with the pardon, Scarsi explained, is that Biden pardoned Hunter for all conduct "through" Dec. 1, 2024."The president signed the pardon on December 1, 2024. Because the period of pardoned conduct extends 'through' the date of execution, the warrant may be read to apply prospectively to conduct that had not yet occurred at the time of its execution, exceeding the scope of the pardon power," Scarsi wrote.In the end, Scarsi said he would comply with the presidential intent of the pardon, its constitutional problems notwithstanding."To the extent the pardon encompasses prospective conduct, the Court deems the prospective component of the pardon severable from the component that demands the termination of this proceeding," he wrote. "The warrant explicitly brings the charges in this action within the ambit of the pardon, indicating presidential intent for the pardon to apply to this case even if it is unconstitutional in other respects."Like Blaze News?

ChatGPT might get ads

I've been a ChatGPT Plus subscriber for a while now, and I don't plan on switching to the Free tier anytime soon. ChatGPT Plus gives me access to the newest models and features much sooner than the Free tier. Also, the limits with the chatbot are higher on the Plus plan, so you won't run into interruptions. Still, the ChatGPT Free option gives you quick access to OpenAI's chatbot, letting you explore some of its best features to determine whether you'd even want to consider the Plus subscription in the first place. Also, ChatGPT Free is truly free, as you don't have to deal with any ads that would help OpenAI pay for your interactions with the AI. You don't have to agree to have your chats train the AI, either. That's why it has limits in place. Unsurprisingly, OpenAI is considering a switch to an ad-based model in ChatGPT at some point in the future. It won't happen anytime soon, but the company confirmed it's looking at inserting ads in ChatGPT. Continue reading... The post ChatGPT might get ads appeared first on BGR.
