Yet, in that moment of despair, it was Joey’s comforting words that brought her solace. “[After] he came out of surgery that night, I was, of course, in tears, and he just kind of took my head in his hands and he said, ‘Mommy, what’s wrong?'" Keirsten recalled. "I just said, ‘I’m really sad, buddy.'" The accident occurred on a bright summer day while Joey watched his grandfather, Mark DeLuca, mow the lawn outside their New York home. Joey, an active little boy who loves tractors and helping with yard work, made an innocent, split-second decision to run up behind his grandfather's riding lawn mower. Before his grandmother could reach him, Mark unknowingly put the mower in reverse, and a tragic accident ensued.

Representative Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) got trounced in his primary on Tuesday, but he is not the only “Squad” member facing the chopping block this primary season. Representative Cori Bush (D-MO) is locked in a dead heat with her primary challenger, St. Louis County prosecuting attorney Wesley Bell, ahead of their August 6 election, according to one poll. Bush, who represents the St. Louis area, is polling at 42%, one point lower than Bell at 43%, according to polling from The Mellman Group for the organization Democratic Majority for Israel, which endorsed Bell. This is a significant drop for Bush from January, when the same polling firm found her leading by 16 points. In the more recent poll, Bell’s lead is within the margin of error, but some indicators suggest he may have a greater advantage. He is leading Bush by 10 points among the most consistent primary voters — 49% to Bush’s 39%, according to the poll. He also leads Bush in job approval, with 61% saying they approve of Bell’s job performance compared to just 49% for Bush. Bell also has an edge in favorability, with 64% of voters viewing him favorably compared to Bush’s 60%. In New York on Tuesday night, Bowman lost his Democratic primary to George Latimer, who served as County Executive for Westchester County. Bowman’s ousting marked the first election loss for the group of progressive House lawmakers nicknamed the “Squad,” which includes Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Bowman’s primary involved fiery attacks by the two Democrats, with Latimer criticizing Bowman’s opposition to Israel’s war in Gaza as being out of sync with voters in his district, which includes Westchester County’s Jewish population. Meanwhile, Bowman was forced to apologize for telling a group of pro-Palestinian protesters that reports of sexual violence by Hamas were “propaganda.” Latimer also said Bowman, the first black man to represent his district, enjoys “an obvious ethnic benefit.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Like Bowman, Bush has been vocal in her criticism of Israel for the war in Gaza and has called for a cease-fire. Meanwhile, Bell’s campaign website says he believes Israel has the right to defend itself. “Israel — the only democracy and strongest American ally in the Middle East — was attacked by terrorists on October 7,” Bell’s website reads. “I believe Israel has the right to defend itself and go after those who perpetrated those attacks. In Congress, I’ll fight to make sure the United States remains Israel’s strongest ally.” The “Squad” members made headlines when they were first elected for ousting members of Congress who had held their seats for a decade or longer. Bush ousted 10-term incumbent Lacy Clay in 2020 and became the first black woman from Missouri to serve in the House.

Some of the intelligence veterans who signed the infamous letter used to discredit the Hunter Biden laptop story weeks before the 2020 presidential election were on the CIA‘s payroll at the time, according to a new report from Republican-led House committees. Congressional investigators found that two of the 51 signatories — former Deputy CIA Director Michael Morell and former CIA Inspector General David Buckley — were actively working for the CIA as contractors when the statement was published. The Weaponization of the Federal Government panel said the “revelation raises concerns that these officials may have abused their positions to expedite the statement’s approval and may have been earning taxpayer dollars while they did it.” Hunter Biden’s father, Joe Biden, was in the midst of running against then-President Donald Trump when the New York Post began reporting on details of the younger Biden’s shady business dealings and personal life contained in the copy of a hard drive. The letter suggested the timing of the laptop story’s emergence had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” POLITICO, which obtained the letter, published a headline in 2020 saying the intel veterans were claiming the laptop story was “Russian disinfo.” Many of the contents of the laptop and hard drive have been analyzed and shown to be authentic over the past few years, but during a debate in the final stretch of the 2020 election cycle, Joe Biden was able to cite the letter to cast doubt on the Post’s reporting. A new report from the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees, along with the Weaponization panel, said emails showed that at least some of the letter’s signatories were on “active contract” with the CIA during its drafting, review, and publication. A CIA employee’s internal email in response to the letter said, “This frustrates me. I don’t think it is helpful to the Agency in the long run.” Another said, “I also love that at least a few of the random signatories belong to individuals currently working.” The report said the investigating committees requested the identities of all the CIA contractors on the letter, but the agency has not “declassified the complete list of individuals … due to purported operational security” beyond disclosing Morell and Buckley. A chart shows that three—including ex-CIA Director John Brennan, former CIA official Marc Polymeropoulos, and former National Counterterrorism Center Director Nick Rasmussen—were not contracted with the CIA on October 19, the date of the letter. Congressional Republicans previously revealed that Morell said “yes” when asked if a call around mid-October 2020 from Antony Blinken, an adviser to Joe Biden’s campaign who now serves as secretary of state, triggered a series of events that led to the letter. Blinken denied soliciting the letter, but emails show Morell asked fellow intelligence veterans to add their names to it with a stated purpose of giving Biden’s campaign a debate “talking point.” Another top Biden campaign official later thanked him. The new report noted Morell acknowledged it is “inappropriate for a currently serving staff officer or contractor to be involved in the political process,” though Hatch Act political restrictions do not apply to them in the same way they do to CIA employees. “Such an overtly political action would be illegal under the Hatch Act for a permanent CIA employee. Congress ought to consider whether to extend this important prohibition to CIA contractors as well,” the report from the GOP-led House panels added. Also mentioned in the report is how the CIA’s Prepublication Classification Review Board (PCRB) received a draft of the letter because former senior intelligence officials had signed it, and a top officer said he informed the top brass that it would be published soon. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP While the report asserts senior CIA leadership had an opportunity at that time to “slow down the CIA’s process for reviewing publication submissions” and “ensure that such an extraordinary statement was properly vetted,” the agency defended its work. A process in which CIA officers are required to “sign a secrecy agreement that includes a lifelong obligation to submit any and all intelligence-related materials” to the PCRB before they are published was followed, a CIA spokeswoman told the New York Post. Confirmation by the PCRB that “information is unclassified is never an endorsement of the reviewed content or its veracity,” the CIA spokeswoman added. “These former officers were not speaking for CIA.” A prior staff memo from the House GOP inquiry from last year revealed that retired CIA analyst David Cariens said an active CIA employee involved in reviewing his memoir “asked” if he would sign the letter, which he agreed to do after learning its contents.
