Top aide finally admits Biden was rapidly declining, falling asleep by the pool

By Reagan Reese | Daily Caller One of former President Joe Biden’s senior aides admitted in a new book that the 82-year-old couldn’t grasp the back and forth of debate and would fall asleep by the pool while they prepped for his showdown with Trump, according to a book excerpt. Top Biden aide Ron Klain, who helped the former president with debate prep, was “half-seriously” wondering if  Biden believed he was the president of NATO rather than the president of the United States, according to the excerpt of Chris Whipple’s new book published by The Guardian. While they prepped, Klain reportedly told Whipple that the then 81-year-old president “didn’t know what Trump had been saying and couldn’t grasp what the back and forth was” and would have to cut training sessions short because he w...

Devine: FBI leaders blocked Hunter Biden laptop talk, logs reveal

By Miranda Devine | New York Post, Commentary New chat logs released by the House Judiciary Committee this week show the extraordinary lengths the FBI went to behind the scenes to shut down any discussion of Hunter Biden’s laptop in October 2020 after the New York Post broke the story.  The conversations, withheld by the FBI under Director Chris Wray, show that senior leadership issued an internal “gag order” on the laptop.  The FBI had been in possession of the abandoned MacBook Pro for 10 months by that stage, after computer repair shop owner John Paul Mac Isaac handed it over and warned of the potential crimes and national security concerns he had found.

Women’s fencer opens up on refusing to face transgender opponent, accepting punishment and backlash

By  Jackson Thompson | Fox Sports Women's fencer Stephanie Turner took her mask off and got a knee in front of her transgender opponent. Ahead of a bout at the Cherry Blossom Open in Maryland over the weekend, Turner, 31, made the decision not to compete against trans athlete Redmond Sullivan. And Turner also wanted to make sure her refusal was caught on video for the world to see.  Turner came to the decision the night before the event when she checked the competition pools and saw that she would be competing against Sullivan, whom she had read about in an article last year.  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX SPORTS

Ford Motor Company will offer employee pricing to all US shoppers

By Sophia Compton , Grady Trimble  | Fox Business U.S. shoppers will be able to save on Ford vehicles this spring through a new initiative called From America, For America. American consumers will have access to Ford's employee pricing from April 3 through June 2. This means customers will pay the same amount as Ford's workers, which is below the dealer invoice price, a spokesperson for the automobile manufacturer told Fox News Digital in an email. "We have the retail inventory to do this and a lot of choice for customers that need a vehicle," Ford Motor Company said in a statement. READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX BUSINESS

Amazon makes bid to buy TikTok as deadline looms

By  Eric Revell  | Fox Business Amazon has made a bid to acquire TikTok as the popular social media app faces a looming deadline to be divested from its China-based owner or face a ban in the U.S. that could take effect this month. A Trump administration official told Reuters on Wednesday that the e-commerce giant made a bid to buy TikTok ahead of the looming ban. The New York Times previously reported, citing three people familiar with the matter, that Amazon placed a last-minute bid to acquire TikTok in its entirety. However, those sources told the outlet the parties involved in the discussions don't appear to be taking Amazon's bid seriously. According to the report, the offer was delivered to Vice President JD Vance and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. READ THE FULL ...

Phil Weiser puts politics over Constitution in legal war against President Trump

By Rocky Mountain Voice Editorial Board Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser is once again putting his progressive ideology ahead of the Constitution, launching a string of lawsuits aimed at blocking President Donald Trump’s executive orders—orders designed to restore law and order, secure the border, and protect minors from irreversible medical harm. In a recent feature by Yellow Scene Magazine, Weiser is portrayed as the liberal hero "fighting back" against Trump’s return to the White House. But to conservatives, Weiser’s efforts represent a dangerous misuse of taxpayer resources, with the AG acting more like a political activist than the state’s top law enforcement officer. Targeting Trump’s Common-Sense Policies From gender-neutral bathrooms in public schools to sanctuary ...

Liberation day and the end of the world’s trade war against America

By John Carney | Breitbart Tariffs Are Blooming in the Rose Garden President Trump is set to step into the Rose Garden tomorrow for what may be the most consequential economic announcement of his second term. Markets are bracing. Diplomats are dialing. Pundits are speculating wildly. But no one—not Wall Street, not foreign governments, not even some inside the West Wing—seems to know exactly what will be announced. This, as it turns out, is part of the design. Trump has dubbed it Liberation Day—a piece of branding with more substance than cynicism. For weeks, he’s signaled that a sweeping new tariff regime is coming. Twenty percent across the board? A reciprocal system that mirrors foreign rates? Something hybrid and more complex? The ambiguity is not a bug. It’s...

Fort Carson strykers head to U.S.-Mexico border to help with immigration enforcement

By Mary Shinn | The Gazette In brisk and windy weather Tuesday, Fort Carson soldiers eased roughly 20-ton Strykers onto flat rail cars for their trip to the U.S.-Mexico border to help with illegal immigration enforcement.  The slow roll of the eight-wheeled Strykers was followed by the clanking of chains as soldiers tied down the vehicles. Other 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team equipment, including jeeps, small trucks, fuel, water and IT vehicles, waited in rows alongside the Strykers for loading.  Over two days, crews expected to load two trains with vehicles. While Strykers can travel by truck or convoy, rail is more efficient.  The brigade plans to send 105 Strykers with advanced intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems to help border patrol agents, an ...

Democrat-only backed bill addressing ‘junk fees’ heads to governor’s desk

By Elyse Apel | The Center Square (The Center Square) – A bill addressing so-called “junk fees” is headed to Gov. Jared Polis’ desk for his signature after successfully passing both the state House and Senate. No Republicans voted to support the legislation, which received unanimous approval from Democrats. House Bill 1090, titled “Protections Against Deceptive Pricing Practices,” requires sellers to clearly disclose the total price of goods and services, and restricts which fees landlords may charge. It is part of a broader package of bills from Democrats, all looking to address the state’s housing prices. Rep. Emily Sirota, D-Denver, sponsored the bill in the House. She argued that it is an important step to end “deceptive junk fees” that add hidden costs. “...

Perspectives on water after 30 years of talking about it in the Arkansas River Basin

By Shanna Lewis | CPR Water in the Arkansas River Basin is in high demand. Farmers, rafters, and fishermen use it. So do cities and towns far from the river, where hundreds of thousands of people live and work. Like elsewhere in the West, the region’s water resources are stretched by drought and growth, along with downstream obligations to Kansas. The 30th annual Arkansas River Basin Water Forum in Pueblo recently brought together water managers and users from all over Colorado to talk about the often contentious nature of water in the basin and around the state and to look for possible solutions to longstanding, reoccurring and often vexing questions about the precious resource. Water experts and advocates from the San Luis Valley, the Arkansas River Basin and Northern Colorado e...
