Due to the overwhelming response, Twitter has deleted the now-famous October 2020 message that predicted financial trouble for Hunter Biden. Former Twitter head of site integrity claims the FBI met weekly to discuss the threat of “hack and leak actions” by “state actors” like Hunter Biden before the 2020 election. The New York Post found the bombshell piece outlining Hunter Biden’s business dealings on his laptop and promptly had it erased from the October 2020 archives. As it included “hacked materials,” Twitter removed it. His computer had been in FBI custody for almost a year at that point. During his…

Democrats rearranged the presidential primary calendar on Friday, rewarding South Carolina by moving the state’s vote to February 3 and giving Iowa’s caucuses a lower priority. The rules committee of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) voted on Friday that South Carolina will replace Iowa as the first state on the presidential nomination calendar, ending a 50-year tradition.

The Republican Party claims that Manchin received the energy bill as “political money” for supporting Biden’s agenda.

Expect a statement from Lee Zeldin on Wednesday on rumors that he would seek the position of chairman of the Republican National Committee. Zeldin had a crucial role in the recent political victories of the Republican Party in New York, when he came closer than any Republican has in decades to unseating Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul. The problem isn’t limited to Zeldin, though. In an interview with The New York Post, Texas Republican Party Chairman Matt Rinaldi stated his party “underperformed nationally.” According to Rinaldi, the “strategic mistakes” of the GOP prevented a countrywide red wave from occurring in 2022.…
