Hunt them down as wild dogs. DOJ Conspirators.
The Gateway Pundit got it right when they said the hunter has become the hunted. Those lawyers and staff from the DOJ are now sitting their pants. Crying that they are going to be sued or even jailed for criminal acts.
Some have sent out resumes and others have already hired outside lawyers. Some were even stupid enough to ask AG Garland for advice. Interesting to see what Jack Smith does.
President Joe Biden has proudly referenced his roots in Scranton, Pennsylvania, on countless occasions.
But after he pardoned a judge involved in a cash-for-kids program that jailed thousands of juveniles in northeastern Pennsylvania, the Electric City is no longer feeling that spark of love.
The newly elected Pennsylvania Republican State Rep. Brenda Pugh called on officials in Scranton to remove Biden’s name from expressways labeled in his honor after he pardoned former Luzerne County Judge Michael Conahan.
That now-disgraced official was convicted after taking kickbacks in exchange for sending juveniles to jail for committing minor crimes, or committing no crime whatsoever, according to PAHomepage.
Pugh said the fact that Biden pardoned Conahan was a disgrace that merits renaming the “President Joe Biden Expressway,” originally named for the commander-in-chief by the Scranton City Council in 2021.
“Conahan’s conduct is forever a blight on Pennsylvania and is a slap in the face to the victims and their families who deserve justice to be served for his atrocious crimes,” Pugh wrote, per PAHomepage.
“His clemency places complicity and a stamp of approval on his behavior,” she continued. “Children are among the most vulnerable Pennsylvanians. This decision is nothing short of a travesty and his clemency is a miscarriage of justice.”
Pugh is far from the only Pennsylvania official to express concern over the presidential pardon.
Even Pennsylvania Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro cringed at the pardon of the corrupt official.
“I’ll offer these thoughts as an outsider, not privy to all the information he looked at, but I do feel strongly that President Biden got it absolutely wrong and created a lot of pain here in northeastern Pennsylvania,” Shapiro said last week, per the Pennsylvania Capital-Star.
“Some children took their lives because of this. Families were torn apart,” Shapiro said of the original scandal. “There was all kinds of mental health issues and anguish that came as a result of these corrupt judges deciding they wanted to make a buck off a kid’s back.”
It is indeed rather difficult to see why Biden deserves to have any highways named in his honor.
This cash-for-kids scheme was clearly the last straw for at least some in Scranton.
But there are plenty of reasons to remove his name from that highway and other infrastructure in the city named for him.
Even beyond his mismanagement of the economy, his overseeing of several new wars around the globe, and his clear mental decline covered up by staffers over the past four years, Biden and his family are themselves likely corrupt, as their foreign business dealings in places like Ukraine and China would indicate.
Given the sheer number of pardons and commutations Biden made — and his obvious cognition problems — it’s quite obvious that he didn’t know what he was signing. (So who drew up that list?) –TPR
Short and sweet. Biden declares that Hard core criminals must live, but babies must die. According to the White House fact sheet about the move, the recipients of the commutations will have their sentences “reclassified from execution to life without the possibility of parole.”
I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Joey said that Progressive criminals on death row have a right to live. But when it comes to babies they must be aborted, killed. Makes sense tot he left.
The White House fact sheet said that the move was an effort to prevent President-elect Donald Trump from “carrying out the execution sentences that would not be handed down under current policy and practice.”
Karma’s a B*tch, Ain’t It, Fani?
A Georgia appeals court has disqualified Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from her election-related criminal case against President-elect Donald Trump, although the indictment still stands.
Willis’s office charged Trump and his codefendants in 2023 for what they alleged was a scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election in Georgia illegally. They pleaded not guilty.
However, Willis’s case hit a snag in early 2024 after it was revealed that she had a romantic relationship with the case’s then-special prosecutor, Nathan Wade. A Fulton County judge in March ruled that Willis could remain as prosecutor if Wade resigned, which he later did.
Trump and multiple codefendants appealed the judge’s decision to the Georgia Court of Appeals, which rendered its decision on Willis Thursday morning.
The court added that a “remedy crafted by the trial court to prevent an ongoing appearance of impropriety did nothing to address the appearance of impropriety that existed at times when DA Willis was exercising her broad pretrial discretion about who to prosecute and what charges to bring.”
Earlier this year, Trump codefendant Michael Roman alleged in court papers that Willis and Wade were in a romantic relationship.
During a court hearing weeks later, both Wade and Willis admitted to being romantically involved, although the pair denied allegations that either of them benefited financially from the arrangement. They also disputed claims that their relationship started after Wade was hired as a special prosecutor and ended in the summer of 2023.
McAfee also admonished Willis for the “unprofessional manner” in how she conducted herself during the evidentiary hearing and showed a “lapse in judgment.” He also chided her for what he described as racially charged statements she made at a church in Atlanta after Roman made the allegations against her.
However, the judge said he was not able to conclusively establish that there was a conflict of interest.
Throughout the court battle, Willis has defended her own conduct and Wade’s qualifications. During a CNN interview earlier this year, Willis said she believes the appeals court proceedings were only an attempt to slow down the case.
“I do think that there are efforts to slow down the train, but the train is coming,” Willis said at the time, adding that she does not believe her relationship with Wade impacted the case.
The case against Trump and the others, including former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, had been stalled for months as the appeals court considered the Willis removal petition.
The ruling Thursday now means that the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia will have to find another prosecutor to take over the case and decide whether to pursue it, though that could be delayed if Willis appeals to higher courts.
It appears unlikely that prosecution against Trump will continue as he prepares to be president for the next four years. But 14 other defendants still face charges.
Meanwhile, a judge in New York has said he would not throw out Trump’s conviction in May on the case alleging 34 counts of falsifying business records, though the future of that case is uncertain.
Two San Diego County Supervisors support protecting the Undocumented. Sheriff says they’re going to jail.
The SDCSO confirmed that state law allows cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. The sheriff argued this has already been debated and decided on at the state level, and that her authority is clearly laid out.
The post asserted the sheriff’s office “will not change its practices based on the Board resolution” and dismissed the county board’s attempt to dictate law enforcement policy.
“California law prohibits the Board of Supervisors from interfering with the independent, constitutionally and statutorily designated investigative functions of the Sheriff, and is clear that the Sheriff has the sole and exclusive authority to operate the county jails.”

Another reason to shop for food bargains. Wholesale Food Prices surge.
Now should show folks why changes had to be made. Wholesale prices climbed 3% in November, the sharpest year-over-year rise since February 2023. Americans weren’t buying the lefts claim that things were rosy and prices were coming down.
Now when Wholesale prices go up, corporations profits are effected and usually that means those increases are passed on.
The wholesale price report comes a day after the government reported that consumer prices rose 2.7% in November from a year earlier, up from an annual gain of 2.6% in October. The increase, fueled by pricier used cars, hotel rooms and groceries, showed that elevated inflation has yet to be fully tamed.

Please Joe add these folks to your pardon list.
I’m sure that you’ve heard the rumors about folks Biden wants to pardon. Well here’s my list for Joe to consider.
The whole J6 committee and their witness list. Biden’s whole cabinet. Also throw in Joe’s complete family. Anyone 18 and older.
Also the whole top medical folks in the NIH, CDC, and FDA. Also the top administrators. That’s enough to start with.

A top White House official said on Dec. 4 that Chinese state-sponsored hackers compromised at least eight U.S. telecommunication companies.
Anne Neuberger, deputy national security adviser for cyber and emerging technologies, provided an update on the Chinese threat actor group called “Salt Typhoon” during a press briefing on Wednesday. The threat group is believed to have hacked into the communications of senior U.S. government officials and prominent political figures, she said.
“We don’t believe any classified communications has been compromised,” Neuberger said.
The Chinese hacking appeared to target a relatively small group of Americans, she added, with only their phone calls and texts compromised. (Which likely means 10’s or 100’s of thousands of people. — TPR)
The telecommunications companies that were breached have responded, but none of them “have fully removed the Chinese actors from these networks,” according to Neuberger.
“So there is a risk of ongoing compromises to communications until U.S. companies address the cybersecurity gaps the Chinese are likely to maintain their access,” Neuberger said.
In October, the FBI and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) identified the Chinese hacks, saying at the time that an investigation was underway.
In late November, Neuberger and White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan hosted telecommunications executives for a meeting to share intelligence and discuss how the U.S. government and the private sector could work together.
Neuberger said President Joe Biden has been briefed multiple times on the issue. The White House “has made it a priority for the federal government to do everything it can,” she added.
Additionally, Neuberger pointed to efforts to improve cybersecurity in multiple sectors, including rail and energy, after the 2021 ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline.
Also at Wednesday’s press briefing, a senior administration official said Salt Typhoon’s activities started at least a year or two ago. Additionally, the official said a “couple dozen” countries have been impacted by the Chinese hacking.
The FBI and the CSIA issued a joint statement on Nov. 13, revealing that Chinese hackers had compromised the networks of multiple telecom companies and stole customer call records and private communications from “a limited number of individuals who are primarily involved in government or political activity.” (Which, given the trustworthiness of the Feds, likely means 10’s or 100’s of thousands of people. — TPR)
On Tuesday, the FBI, the CISA, the National Security Agency (NSA), and international partners published a guide on best practices for protecting communication infrastructures.
CISA Executive Assistant Director for Cybersecurity Jeff Greene conceded on Tuesday that he didn’t have a timeline on when Chinese hackers could be purged from U.S. telecom networks.
“It would be impossible for us to predict when we’ll have full eviction,” Greene said at the time.
In September, the Justice Department announced that the FBI had taken down a botnet associated with “Flax Typhoon,” a threat group operating through the Beijing-based Integrity Technology Group. The botnet consisted of more than 200,000 consumer devices—such as network cameras, video recorders, and home and office routers—in the United States and elsewhere.
The feds have known about this for years, so why are we only hearing about their “attempts” to eliminate them now? They even admit they don’t know how long it will take to eradicate the threat!–TPR
Dershowitz, Biden Should Pardon Trump. Below is a reprint from Newsmax.
By Mark Swanson.
Constitutional law expert Alan Dershowitz told Newsmax on Monday that President Joe Biden, using the same principle he applied in pardoning his son, Hunter Biden, should pardon President-elect Donald Trump as well as nonviolent Jan. 6, 2021, offenders to “send a message of equality.”
If the president doesn’t do it, if his sweeping pardon of his son “becomes a one-off,” Dershowitz predicted “history will look very, very negatively upon him.”
Dershowitz joined “Finnerty” to say that the principle the president applied to his son is a correct one: “that you don’t have selective prosecution.”
“Now, what Hunter Biden did was criminal, whereas what Donald Trump did, certainly in New York, was not criminal. But in both cases, they would never have been prosecuted if their names were ‘Smith’ rather than Biden and Trump,” Dershowitz said.
“And to be consistent with [Biden’s] principles, I think that Trump should be pardoned. I think that the Jan. 6 nonviolent offenders should be pardoned.”
Dershowitz pointed out that any President Biden pardon of Trump would largely by symbolic but important nonetheless.
“He can’t pardon [Trump] for New York, which is the worst abuse of the legal system I’ve seen in 60 years of practicing law,” Dershowitz said of the business records case brought by the state, for which Trump was found guilty on 34 counts.
“But he could pardon him from the Florida case and from the D.C. case, even though those are not going to be tried while he’s president,” Dershowitz said of the two federal cases.
“Still, it would send a message of equality, one that says, look, this is not just a father pardoning a son. This is a man, a principled president, applying a standard across the board, saying that people shouldn’t be prosecuted based on their convictions, based on their political views, on their partisan affiliations,” he told host Rob Finnerty.
“Will he do that? I’m not sure.”
Revoke passports of Jack Smith and others.
When President Trump comes into power again, he must revoke the passports of Smith, Garland, and a few others. Make sure they cannot flee the country before being questioned about the weaponization of the DOJ.
Nuff said.
