The liberal outlet Politico is reporting that Biden aides are worried about the president suffering ‘psychological torment’ over his son Hunter’s trial.

The media is truly beyond parody.

Can you imagine any media outlet reporting something like this about the Trump family and his trials? It would never happen.

From Politico:

Biden aides worry about psychological torment as Hunter heads for trial

President Joe Biden will soon have to watch and wait as 12 jurors in his home state decide whether his son is guilty of felony gun charges — a case brought by his own Justice Department.

For the White House, the scenario of Hunter Biden’s first criminal trial, all but assured to start June 3, is an unprecedented event in American political history that they hoped never to face.

While aides insist that the White House will have no involvement in the case, brought by special counsel David Weiss, some fear it could dramatically impact the president himself, more psychologically than politically.

Three advisers granted anonymity to speak about private deliberations said they, and members of the First Family, are worried about the weight Hunter Biden’s trial will place on the president at an already difficult time for him politically. Biden has expressed fears to them about the possibility that his son will serve time in prison.

“He worries about Hunter every single day, from the moment he wakes up to the moment he goes to sleep,” said one of the three advisers. “That will only pick up during a trial.”

I guess the president should’ve thought of that before he used his cracked out son as his international bag man.

A recent New York Times poll was full of good news for Donald Trump and MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe’ host Joe Scarborough just can’t deal.

This week, he actually accused the New York Times polling of pro-Trump bias. Does anyone believe that’s true?

Scarborough’s rant was just theater. He knows Joe Biden watches the show, so he is making arguments that he knows Biden wants to hear.

NewsBusters provides a transcript:

HEILEMANN: I’m not saying it’s not close. I’m not going to carry water for the New York Times or the methodology of this poll. I would keep going back to the thing that I try to say every time we talk about these things. Which is, that I’m really interested in — and I know you know this. What are the polls showing us directionally about the race?

SCARBOROUGH: I understand. There’s a difference, though, with the New York Times/ Siena poll, and you know this. It’s given disproportionate impact. This year, this cycle, it is skewed wildly in Donald Trump’s direction. [Heilemann tries to speak.]

Hold on. And the New York Times feasts on it with clickbait stories, like, a dozen at a time.

HEILEMANN: And I, what I’m trying to focus on is what I think people should pay attention to [tries to continue]–

SCARBOROUGH: — [Interrupting] But what I’m trying to focus on is, the New York Times right now is actively shaping the election cycles, where this poll comes out on a Sunday, and on Monday, people go, oh — and I heard it! And I’m sitting there going, don’t be so stupid.

That’s why we’re doing this. [Heilemann tries to respond. Scarborough shouts.]

Lily Tang Williams is a Republican who is running for congress in New Hampshire. She is also a survivor of Mao’s Cultural Revolution in communist China.

She sees history repeating itself with the radical campus protests and even compared the protesters to Mao’s Red Guard.

It’s an apt comparison.

FOX News reports:

Survivor of Mao’s political purge getting ‘PTSD’ watching history repeat on college campuses

A survivor of Mao’s Cultural Revolution says she is experiencing post-traumatic stress witnessing history repeat itself on college campuses as “Marxist hordes” have taken over in anti-American and anti-Israel demonstrations.

In an interview with Fox News Digital, Lily Tang Williams, who is currently running as a Republican candidate for Congress in New Hampshire’s 2nd district, said she fears the country she left is coming back to haunt her again in the United States.

“I sometimes I get nervous, and I feel like I’m having a little bit of PTSD and like I can’t sleep well whenever I see the way they’re chanting, using drums and us[ing] slogans, [are] humiliating people and have a huge amount of young people…chanting ‘Death to America,’ not just ‘Death to Israel.’ I just feel like, oh my goodness the… Red Guards are in action again,” she said.

The Red Guard was a massive student-led, paramilitary social movement in China that was mobilized by Chairman Mao Zedong in 1966.

Some protesters have come right out and said that the campus protests are really about a socialist revolution, so this woman’s concerns are valid.

It is like the Red Guard all over again.

Joe Biden speaks at a TSMC semiconductor chip factory in Arizona.

An explosion was reported at the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company plant in north Phoenix, Arizona on Wednesday afternoon, leaving one seriously injured.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Biden made an appearance in Arizona in late 2022 before the plant opened to announce a $40 billion investment while visiting the computer chip plant while struggling to read off the teleprompter.

Biden at Phoenix Computer Chip Plant: “Three Nano Chips, Three Nano Chip, Chips That Are Three Nano… Anyway, Nano Nono, I Don’t Know” (VIDEO)

Earlier this year, Biden announced another $8.5 billion investment with Intel for a major CHIPS and Science Act award and gave a rambling incoherent speech to a few rows of people at the Intel Ocotillo Campus in Chandler, Arizona.

This came after DEI – Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion – killed the CHIPS Act.

Now, the plant has exploded.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Wednesday morning, a barge also collided with the Pelican Island Bridge in Galveston, Texas.

Disasters in Biden’s America are a regular occurrence.

AZ Central reports,

Firefighters from multiple departments responded to a reported hazardous materials call on Wednesday afternoon at the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company plant in north Phoenix, according to the Phoenix Fire Department.

Firefighters from the Phoenix, Glendale and Daisy Mountain fire departments were dispatched to TSMC, near Dove Valley and 43rd Avenue, about 2:30 p.m., according to Phoenix fire officials.

The call was made as a result of an explosion at the plant, according to the Phoenix Fire Department.

One adult male, who was reported to be a worker at the site, was taken to a hospital for serious injuries, authorities said.

This is a developing story…

Pamela Price, the district attorney in Oakland, California who was elected with backing from George Soros, is going to face a recall vote in November.

Crime has gotten so out of control in Oakland that multiple businesses such as In and Out Burger have fled the city in recent months.

Price is a supporter of the ‘social justice’ approach to law enforcement that has unleashed massive crime problems in multiple American cities.

The Oaklandside reports:

Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price will face recall election in November

Oakland voters, mark your calendars. The question of whether or not Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price should be allowed to fill out the rest of her term will be decided on Nov. 5, 2024.

The county Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to consolidate the recall with the general election, which will include local, state, and federal races and ballot measures. Supervisors Lena Tam and David Haubert attended part of the meeting but were excused before the vote.

Proponents of the recall wanted the county to hold a special election this summer that would solely feature the recall question. County staff have said this would cost around $15-20 million, factoring in expenses for hundreds of election workers, printing ballots and election materials, postage, and setting up vote centers. In comparison, the cost of adding the recall question to the November general election ballot will be $4 million…

“We need justice for our babies, and actually nothing is going to change if Pamela Price is still in office,” said Brenda Angulo, whose 15-year-old son Erick Portillo was murdered in Hayward last year. “I don’t understand why it’s an issue economically.”

Price is vowing to fight the recall.

From Mercury News:

Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price goes on offensive, vows to defeat recall effort

Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price went on the offensive Wednesday, vowing to prevail against a well-heeled recall attempt that will be decided on a packed November presidential election ballot…

Backed by more than a dozen supporters holding signs proclaiming “Protect the Win,” Price framed the recall campaign as a bid to “overturn” the results of the 2022 election, during which she became the first Black woman to serve as Alameda County’s top prosecutor.

If the people of Oakland want things to change, they need to vote this woman out of office, and it can be done.

According to an investigation conducted by the Office of Inspector General, an FBI Special Agent in Charge (SAC) illegally directed a subordinate to give his spouse a cash award.

When the unidentified agent got caught for ethical violations pertaining to a financial conflict of interest, they retired and refused to cooperate with the Office of Inspector General.

The Department of Justice declined to prosecute the SAC.

“The Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of the Inspector General (OIG) initiated an investigation after receiving information from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Inspection Division, alleging that a then FBI Special Agent in Charge (SAC) had assigned the SAC’s spouse, who worked within the SAC’s chain of command, to serve on a committee and then arranged for the committee members, including the spouse, to receive cash awards in recognition of such service,” the Office of Inspector General wrote in an investigative summary.

The SAC directed a subordinate to give his spouse a cash bonus.

“The OIG investigation substantiated the allegation that the SAC had an imputed financial interest in the spouse’s receipt of the cash award, and that the SAC violated federal ethics regulations and related FBI policies when the SAC—without seeking prior authorization to participate in the matter—orchestrated the spouse’s receipt of the award by directing a subordinate to complete the paperwork necessary for the spouse to receive the award,” the OIG wrote.

The SAC retired and refused to cooperate with the Office of Inspector General.

“The SAC retired from the FBI prior to being contacted by the OIG for an interview. When later contacted by the OIG for a voluntary interview, the SAC declined to be interviewed. The OIG has the authority to compel testimony from current DOJ employees upon informing them that their statements will not be used to incriminate them in a criminal proceeding. The OIG does not have the authority to compel or subpoena testimony from former DOJ employees, including those who retire or resign during an OIG investigation.” the OIG wrote.

The Justice Department declined to prosecute the SAC and they will retire with a pension for life.

Maryland GOP Congressional candidate Kim Klacik is back after making headlines in 2020 with an incredible campaign as “the first Black female Republican candidate running for a Maryland Congressional seat, ever.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Kim Klacik made quite the scene with her EPIC campaign advertisement, exposing the Democrats’ hypocritical Black Lives Matter scam and the rotting city of Baltimore. She also crushed it at the 2020 Republican National Convention in August.

Tens of millions of you have shared the struggle of black people in Baltimore. You cared about our black lives more than our own leaders.

They have done nothing for us.
Now they can’t hide.
We are the change.

After tragically losing the 2020 General Election to Democrat Kweisi Mfume, she’s back on the general election ticket in 2024. This year, after redistricting, Kim Klacik is better positioned to win and help President Trump pass through his MAGA agenda. “These lines were drawn when a Republican held the seat, so we’re feeling very optimistic about it,” said Klacik.

Additionally, Klacik was endorsed by former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy on Tuesday. Ramaswamy has built a large fan base among Republican and Independent voters while staunchly backing Trump even when running against him.

In the Tuesday primary, Klacik was declared the winner with a staggering 64% of the vote. It wasn’t even close.

Only an hour after the polls closed, she was predicted winner and gave a victory speech:

See all Maryland primary results here.

Klacik spoke to The Gateway Pundit correspondent Jordan Conradson on Tuesday night, just after polls closed in Maryland.

We discussed Joe Biden’s Southern Border Crisis and what she predicts will happen in Maryland following President Trump’s MASSIVE rally of 100,000 supporters just hours away in Wildwood, New Jersey.

The Gateway Pundit recently reported on Trump’s mega rally and his plan to campaign in formerly blue states, which he says will flip for him.

Klacik also commented on New Gen 47 PAC’s venture to swing low-propensity young and minority voters to the Republican ticket by hosting concerts with A-list musicians and celebrities.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, New Gen 47 PAC, founded by LJ Fino, President of First Class Records, and PR consultant Alex Fahmy, is holding a rap concert with rap star Waka Flocka Flame next month in Miami. Get tickets HERE:

Watch the full interview below:

Conradson: You broke onto the scene in 2020 with a bombshell video, you know, exposing the ruin of Baltimore nowadays. What’s different about this year running for Congress?

Klacik: Well look, unfortunately, we have the same problems. And I think that’s why we’re back at it again. I mean, here we are four years later, and we’re dealing with the same issues, whether it’s crime and violence, a southern border that’s not secured, we’ve got a problem with jobs, opportunities, the economy, gas prices are still high. And so, it’s unfortunate that we’re dealing with the same issues. And so we thought, You know what, we’re gonna give it another go. As many people know, we had redistricting here in Maryland. I’m in the second congressional district. These lines were drawn when a Republican held the seat, so we’re feeling very optimistic about it, and we definitely need a lot of people’s support going forward. But this is a time to send another Republican down to Capitol Hill within the Maryland delegation, and we’re excited.

Conradson: I just came back from New Jersey where there were 100,000 people at Wildwood Beach for President Trump. How will that resonate to the region as a whole? Do you expect Maryland to go more red, possibly for President Trump, and how will that affect your race?

Klacik: I think so. I think, you know, a lot of people talked about the suburban women in 2020. But, if you listen to suburban women today, a lot of people are saying, ‘You know what, despite how I feel about his personality, I really want his policies.’ And there are a lot of women that are moms that are looking at what’s going on in the schools, and parental rights is something that’s very important, keeping female sports female; this is something that President Trump talks about often. And I think this is when we’re gonna get a lot of suburban women supporting the Republican Party, supporting President Trump. As you said, you were in New Jersey, and I have to say, in New Jersey, you’re gonna see some seats flip, and I think the governorship is going to flip. I think they’re going to make it happen, and I think here in the state of Maryland we’re going to see something similar.

Conradson: Another thing I notice, of course, soaring crime here in Baltimore, but I’m coming from Arizona. I wouldn’t have expected to see every single day, day after day, I’m seeing more and more illegal immigrants here in Baltimore, out there in DC, They’re flying them all over the country. What are you going to do in Congress to stop not only the soaring crime, but the illegal immigration crisis and flying illegals thousands of miles across the country?

Klacik: Yeah, it’s time that we really do something about it. I mean, obviously, we have to secure the southern border. There are many people talking today saying, ‘look, we don’t even feel like we have a border at this point because the way that it’s open,’ and a lot of people are not gonna want to hear this, but it’s going to be time for some deportations. We have a situation, a crisis, a humanitarian crisis that we cannot sustain at all, and it is taking a toll on our resources, our hospitals, our schools. And you know what? I want to put Americans first that’s what it’s about. It’s about dealing with what’s going on at home, and right now, I see us giving a ton of money to illegal immigrants, yet we’re ignoring our children and some of these schools, we’re ignoring our veterans, we’re ignoring those that really have been here and has served our country, and we just can’t do that anymore.

Conradson: One other thing I want to ask you about: my good friends, Alex Fahmy and LJ Fino, they have this New Gen 47 PAC. They’re going to be holding pretty incredible events, historic events, you know, they have a rap concert coming up in June with Waka Flocka Flame in Miami. What do you think an event like that, a concert with Waka Flocka or other A-list famous rappers would have, what kind of impact do you think that would have on Baltimore City or Baltimore County?

Klacik: This is what we need. It’s like we’re winning the war when it comes to policies, but we’re also winning the culture war. People are tired of what they’re seeing on a day-to-day basis. And just so people understand, even in black communities, we’re seeing the crime and violence soar just like everywhere else. We don’t want criminals in our neighborhood. We don’t want to defund the police. We don’t want to vilify our police. We love to back the blue, and so we gotta get back to common sense core values and our morals, and I think everybody can agree on that.

Leftist writer Juraj Cintula is arrested after he fired five shots at populist Prime Minister Rovert Fico in Slovakia earlier Wednesday in an attempted assassination.

BREAKING UPDATE: Prominent leftist writer Juraq Cintula was arrested following the attempted assassination of populist Slovakian President Robert Fico.

BREAKING:

Fico’s current condition is unknown.

Prime Minister Fico, a populist conservative and Trump-supporter, who immediately ended military aid to Ukraine when he was sworn in as Prime Minister. Fico is against mass immigration and rejected the WHO Global Pandemic Accord that would turn Slovakian control over to a corrupt international body.

Following his shooting today and as he was fighting for his life in a Slovakian hospital, a British Sky News commenter came close to justifying the assassination attempt against PM Robert Fico. Then he compared him to Prime Minister Victor Orban in Hungary.

“It’s not surprising this event took place… He’s become very pro-Russian.”

Unsurprisingly, Sky News has literally justified the assassination attempt on Slovakian PM Robert Fico. Despicable ghouls.

Earlier today the Joe Biden regime finally agreed to debate President Donald Trump. This was a great surprise to the American public after seeing Joe Biden’s lose his battle with dementia these past six years.

The first official presidential debate was held in 1960 between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy. This year was looking to be the first time in 64 years that there would not be a presidential debate as the Biden regime balked at the idea knowing that Joe has the worst foreign policy record in history, the worst domestic policy record in 100 years, and is not mentally capable of a public debate due to his diminishing mental capacity.

So today’s news was a surprise. Of course, the Democrats listed several stipulations in order to proceed with a debate.

Axios reported:

President Biden is opting out of the traditional presidential debates structure, challenging former President Trump to a one-on-one contest as soon as next month.

Why it matters: The nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates traditionally hosts three presidential debates in September and October. Biden’s offer would cut the commission out of the process.

Between the lines: The Biden campaign views the current debates as “structured like an entertainment spectacle” that doesn’t enforce its own rules, per a letter to the commission released Wednesday.

The campaign instead wants to work directly with broadcast networks that host both GOP and Democratic primary debates.
The letter proposes just the two candidates and a moderator, with no audience.
It also suggests microphones that cut off automatically at time limits and when it’s not a candidate’s turn to speak.

The CNN debate moderators were named after President Trump and Joe Biden agreed to a debate.

Trump-haters and fake news pushers Jake Tapper and Dana Bash were selected by Democrats and lackeys at CNN to host the debates.

It’s now confirmed that President Trump will be debating Jake Tapper, Dana Bash, and Joe Biden in the first debate.

— Catturd (@catturd2) May 15, 2024

Of course, Democrats only agreed to the debates after the stacked the events with far left moderators and set the rules. And Democrats refused to offer Democrat-Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy on the stage.

There is only one reason for this – Kennedy would take votes from Joe Biden. That’s it. That is the only reason they would not allow him on the stage.

This is not the Democrat Party’s first assault on RFK Jr. The Democrats previously made the rules so impossible for a challenger that he was forced to run as an Independent candidate.

Even worse, the Biden regime REFUSES to grant Robert Kennedy, Jr. Secret Service security for his campaign knowing that his FATHER and UNCLE were both assassinated when he was a child.

Robert F. Kennedy is currently averaging 10.8% of the vote in the Real Clear Politics averages.

But on Wednesday night Robert F. Kennedy announced that he has met the requirements and that he will be joining Trump and Biden at the debate.

I’m happy to report that I will meet the criteria to participate in the @CNN debate before the June 20 deadline. I look forward to holding Presidents Biden and Trump accountable for their records in Atlanta on June 27 to give Americans the debate they deserve. #KennedyShanahan24

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre blamed Trump and the Covid pandemic when a reporter asked why Joe Biden lied about inflation being 9% when he took office in January 2021.

Biden has falsely claimed that inflation was 9% when he took office. It was 1.4% in January 2021.

Biden’s lie was so egregious that the Washington Post gave him four Pinocchio’s.

Joe Biden has now twice in one week claimed that inflation was at 9% when he took office.

It’s a particularly hilarious lie because inflation was 1.4% when he took office and hit a HIGH OF 9.1% in June 2022.

Fox News Business reporter Ed Lawrence asked Karine Jean-Pierre why Joe Biden keeps lying about inflation.

KJP absurdly claimed the inflation crisis is a result of the Covid pandemic and supply chain issues.

“I wanna ask you about how the President talks about inflation. So, two times over the past two weeks, the President said inflation was nine percent when he came into office. Is the President misleading Americans on that? Or does it — just not realize that inflation was 1.4 percent when he came into office?”

Karine Jean-Pierre stuttered through a word salad.

“So, you know — and — and thank you for the question, because I know that this — we got a lot of incoming on this yesterday and look, I — what the President was — the point that he was making — uh — is that the factors that caused inflation was in place when he walked in — into the administration — when he took office. Let’s — as you know, the pandemic caused inflation around the world to be — uh — uh — by disrupting our economy and breaking our supply chains — as you know, we had to act quickly on dealing with the supply chain. He put together a task force. You saw the President do that,” Karine Jean-Pierre said.

“But COVID started in March of 2020. So those factors were in place for about a year before the President took office,” he said.

Biden’s tax-and-spend policies led to the inflation crisis, but KJP blamed everyone and everything else.

“Look, I mean — look, the pandemic was happening, right? That caused inflation. That was happening. Supply chain was — was — was breaking our economy. That was happening and it wasn’t just us. It wasn’t just us. It was globally,” Karine Jean-Pierre said.
