#1 \u2013 Peter Doocy Brings Down the House During Grilling of WH on Classified Docs<\/a> \u2014 by Nick Arama\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

That\u2019s an excellent question. There\u2019s a lot that needs answering here. Biden hasn\u2019t worked for Penn since 2019. So why were they packing up the office in Nov. 2022, and why was a personal lawyer sent? Personal lawyers don\u2019t usually pack up offices, not when you have to pay them hundreds of dollars an hour. That would suggest that there was a reason that lawyer was there. Did someone else find the documents first and call the lawyer? And now, this also exposed the classified documents to that personal lawyer.<\/p>\n

But it was Fox\u2019s Peter Doocy who brought down the house with his question and you have to see KJP\u2019s face in reaction, it\u2019s priceless. Check out her eyes, it\u2019s wonderful.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

#2 \u2013 UPDATED: Flights Grounded Nationwide Due to FAA Computer System Failure<\/a> \u2014 by Jennifer Van Laar\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Flights across the United States are delayed Wednesday morning as the result of a computer failure at the Federal Aviation Administration. The affected system, NOTAMS (Notice to Air Missions) is responsible for sending out flight hazards and real time restrictions to pilots.<\/p>\n

An initial statement released by the agency reads:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cTHE FAA is experiencing an outage that is impacting the update of NOTAMS. All flights are unable to be released at this time.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n

#3 \u2013 McCarthy Wins the 15-Round Bout, but Matt Gaetz Is the Real Winner<\/a> \u2014 by Bob Hoge\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Usually when a writer writes, \u201cit was like a 15-round fight,\u201d they\u2019re engaging in hyperbole\u2014but as RedState\u2019s\u00a0Nick Arama reported<\/a>, Friday night\u2019s vote for Speaker of the House did indeed go 15 rounds before Kevin McCarthy finally won after facing a rebellion from 20 Republicans who initially refused to vote for him. It was the longest speaker battle\u00a0since 1853<\/a>.<\/p>\n

California\u2019s McCarthy finally won the speakership, but Florida congressman Matt Gaetz may have won the war. He was the leader of the pack of holdouts, along with Colorado\u2019s Lauren Boebert and Arizona\u2019s Andy Biggs, and for a brief moment in time, they held the future one of the three branches of government in their hands. All eyes looked to them as their yay or nay could change the course of the future.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

#4 \u2013 Incoming Oversight Chair Reveals Top Priority of Biden Investigation \u2014 and Humiliates Chuck Todd in the Process<\/a> \u2014 by Mike Miller\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Anyway, after four days and 15 ballots finally gave the gavel to McCarthy in the wee hours of Saturday morning \u2014 all but neutering his power as Speaker \u2014 it\u2019s time for the circular firing squad to end and for the promised work to be done. Do I have my doubts? Of course, don\u2019t you?<\/p>\n

With the above realization surely in mind, Kentucky Rep.\u00a0James Comer<\/a>, the incoming House Oversight Committee chair, appeared on NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press\u201d on Sunday to discuss the priorities of his committee. The bottom line: \u201cWe\u2019re not investigating Hunter Biden; we\u2019re investigating\u00a0Joe Biden<\/a>.\u201d I like it \u2014 on paper, anyway.<\/p>\n

Although, if Comer\u2019s committee is to effectively investigate\u00a0The Big Guy<\/a>\u00a0and his involvement in\u00a0The Biden Family Business<\/a>, of\u00a0course<\/em>\u00a0it will also have to investigate Biden\u2019s crackhead son Hunter, and the multiplicity of damning allegations against him.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

#5 \u2013 Faces Meet Palms After Mitch McConnell Comments on the New GOP House Majority<\/a> \u2014 by Bonchie<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

I\u2019m not sure there\u2019s anything conservatives despise more than being gaslit by their own leadership, and this is gaslighting of the highest order. McConnell states that he is looking forward to \u201cworking together to check and balance Washington Democrats, bring oversight to this reckless Administration, fight the far left\u2019s radical policies, and defend America.\u201d<\/p>\n

Apparently, McConnell thinks the rest of us were born sometime in the last few days because he literally just got done doing what was essentially a\u00a0joint campaign stop<\/a>\u00a0with Joe Biden in Kentucky. Together, the two lauded the passage of a massive infrastructure bill, seen as a key victory for the White House\u2019s agenda prior to the last election. McConnell himself helped whip the votes for that spending package.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/section>\n
