Hunter Biden is back in the spotlight as a recent Senate report says that he received a $3.5 million wire transfer from a Russian billionaire. This comes at a time where the campaign race between his father, Democrat candidate Joe Biden, is gearing up for his first debate with President Donald Trump ahead of November’s election. The billionaire is named Elena Baturina and she’s reportedly one of, if not the, richest woman in Russia. She is also the widow of late Yury Luzhkov, who is possibly best known for being a previous mayor of Moscow. This information was revealed in…

Protesters have arrived at Sen. Lindsey Graham’s house located in Washington, D.C. and they do not want the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat to be filled just yet.

The protest was somewhat labeled “Wake Up Lindsey Graham” and posted on Facebook video by ABC 7 News. That particular video can be seen here. The protesters have arrived because Sen. Lindsey Graham already seems to favor getting a quick replacement for the late Justice Ginsburg, particularly before the election in November. It appears to be just…

The cities in question are New York City, New York;  Seattle, Washington; and Portland, Oregon.

The passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg has set off an alarming amount of divided social media posts revolving around politics and whether or not President Donald Trump and his administration should “fill the seat” before the election. Many notable figures on the Democratic side say not to, and how dare he, and have even threatened to riot or “burn it all down.” Contrarily, those on the Republican side of politics look at it as their duty to fill a vacant seat, regardless of the fact that an upcoming election is just around the corner. One thing to note, in a…

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has delivered a victory to Democrats in a key case regarding mail-in ballots and the upcoming election day deadline. The ruling was 5-2 in favor of Democrats and grants an extension of three more days for ballots to arrive, provided that the ballots were postmarked before the polls closed. The Democrats brought up the concept that postal services could face delays in a time where mass amounts of ballots were sent, and if any arrived late on behalf of a postal delay, that ballots could be invalidated by no fault of the voter. The Supreme Court…

A popular science magazine has made a presidential endorsement for the first time in 175 years of existence. It was Scientific American who made Joe Biden their first presidential endorsement ever. The magazine made the announcement on their website, saying they have never endorsed a presidential candidate yet, but this was the first time because they were “compelled” to do it. In the same article where they endorse Joe Biden, they also target President Donald Trump with a bit of criticism in his response to the ongoing issue America and other countries are facing now. The author, whose name is…

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany targets the press during a briefing and asked them why they aren’t talking as much, or asking about, the historic peace deal that President Donald Trump announced between the Arab nations of the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain and Israel.

Despite a suspect possibly being armed, or in-fact – being armed (as one man held a weapon in his hand…

Alexander Vindman was a key witness during impeachment trial of President Donald Trump. Vindman has more recently become a big name in the anti-Trump movement. Vindman gave an interview with The Atlantic editor in Chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, in which Vindman was very critical of President Trump, particularly when it came to Goldberg’s questions about Russian intelligence. Keep in mind, this is likely Vindman’s first big interview in quite a while. Also, something to keep in mind, is that Goldberg recently was criticized about his story that mentioned anonymous sources being highly critical of Trump, saying that he called military who…

Some Senate Republicans are in favor of putting pressure on Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in hopes to get her approval and a deal on a relief bill, and not the one costing $2 trillion like some Democrats are asking for. There was a procedural vote that was designed to push the relief plan from $500 billion up to $700 billion, but still much less than the package Pelosi is looking at which costs the aforementioned $2 trillion. Senate Republicans see putting pressure on Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) as the key to getting a deal on a coronavirus relief bill…

An online petition is circulating the web demanding that Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi be prosecuted for violations that may have occurred while she received a blow out in a shuttered salon and was seen maskless on a security camera.

Remember Rick Moranis from the classic “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids?” Well, he dropped off the map all the way back in 1997, somewhat retiring from acting, and only making subtle appearances in things like voice-overs – but mostly stayed out of the public eye all this time. He has a little role in a spinoff of “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” to be seen on Disney+, but beyond that, Moranis hasn’t been seen very often. And here he is now in a new commercial alongside Hollywood star, Ryan Reynolds, in a commercial for Mint Mobile, a company he apparently…

President Donald Trump got quite a surprise when The Atlantic published an article about him, claiming that he referred to fallen soldiers as both “losers” and “suckers.” The story was based on anonymous sources.

It should be known his dispute is only partial because Bolton says he didn’t hear Trump say those words. Bolton also pointed out that it’s possible Trump could have said them during another time…
