- Candace Owens Apologizes To Hunter Biden: ‘I’m Sorry, I Feel Sh*tty’
Candace Owens apologized to Hunter Biden in their interview on Thursday, telling the former president’s son she “felt sh*tty” about contributing to the media storm surrounding his drug addiction. Biden sat down with the controversial podcaster to talk about his past scandals and the state of politics in America as a whole. During a conversation surrounding religion, Biden claimed to have made peace with his previous missteps through appreciating the place he reached in later life. “Like I wouldn’t be here, we couldn’t have this honest conversation. I couldn’t get to know you as a human being if every single thing didn’t occur behind it,” he said. “And it’s that piece of life that like the only way I got it is when they just tore off all my clothes, tart and feathered me, and put me in the center of town and said, ‘Look at him.’ And I survived.” Owen then expressed her regret at previous comments she had made about the younger Biden, calling her part in condemning him in the past “gross.” She said: I feel like I have to say, like I’m really sorry that I contributed to that. Like I just feel really sh*tty. Like, I feel guilty because like hearing you talk about I mean, basically, having the worst moments of your life. Like I always speak about on my show, how a lot of these kids growing up aren’t going to even know what it was like before social media, where you could just make a mistake and like have that be over, and you got to grow up. And now it’s like they’re digging and they’re finding people’s tweets from when they’re 17. They’re an idiot. They wrote the n-word once, and they like want to hang them when they’re 40, and I just saw you as a caricature, and it was definitely, like I said, like feeling gaslit by the political machine, convinced that it was just the left that partook in this political machine. And I just like really want to say like, genuinely like I’m so sorry that I just didn’t even consider, he’s a crackhead, and like you know, like that’s actually a very relatable thing, and he shouldn’t be, you know, like to have that is just unbelievable to consider every worst thing that you have ever done. […] But I do, I just feel like I my it’s… [TheTopNews] Read More.53 mins ago - GOP Rep. Says January 6 Was ‘Made Up’: ‘That Was A Staged Thing’
Francis Chung/POLITICO via AP Images Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) said on Thursday that the January 6 insurrection was “made up,” claiming that the event was “staged” by those who opposed President Donald Trump. Norman was asked by press about the Department of Justice’s new $1.776 billion fund set up as part of a settlement of Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service over the 2019 leak of his tax returns. The Department claimed the fund was meant “for victims of lawfare and weaponization to be heard and seek redress,” leading many to question whether Jan. 6 rioters could receive money through the fund. When pressed on this possibility, Norman claimed that the insurrection had not taken place in the way it remembered, seen on video, and spoken about by those who saw or actively took part in the riot. NORMAN: Look, January 6th was an issue that was made up in the first place. REPORTER: Made up, sir? NORMAN: That was a staged thing from day one. REPORTER: The riot was staged? NORMAN: When you had police officers letting people in the building, when you had people that’s not being prosecuted– Ray, I forget his name. There’s no excuse for that. REPORTER: Your colleagues, though, your Republican colleagues ran for their life and barricaded themselves in their chamber. You think they were acting? NORMAN: No, there was a riot there but it was a self made riot by members who hate Trump. It was made up, in my opinion. More than 140 police officers were injured on January 6, including sustaining traumatic brain injuries and other lasting ailments. The attack caused approximately $3 million in damage to the Capitol. Trump pardoned approximately 1,500 Jan. 6 defendants and prisoners– commuting the sentences of 8 more– in the first month of his second term, many of whom have gone on to commit serious crimes. Rep.

Jim McGovern (D-MA) blasted Republicans on Thursday after GOP leadership canceled a vote on whether to rein in President Donald Trump amid his war on Iran. The war powers measure would require Trump to seek congressional approval for the ongoing war, which is currently in a tenuous ceasefire. Trump has criticized the idea, saying he does not need Congress’s permission. On Tuesday, the Senate advanced its own resolution in a rebuke of Trump. House Republicans, meanwhile, canceled a scheduled vote on a war powers resolution. Sources told Politico House leadership nixed the vote because, due to “absences and defections, the measure likely would have been approved.” On Thursday, McGovern rose for a parliamentary inquiry and asked why the House was not holding a vote on the war powers resolution. “Mr. Speaker, can you explain to the members of the chamber what is happening with the Iran war powers resolution that was scheduled to be voted on this evening?” he asked. “Does the gentleman have a parliamentary question?” the chair asked. “Well, that is my parliamentary inquiry,” McGovern fired back. “I just want to know what has happened with the Iran war powers resolution.” “The gentleman may consult with your leadership regarding scheduling,” came the reply. McGovern lost it: Mr. Speaker, further parliamentary inquiry. Are we not voting on it because the American people are sick and tired of this illegal war that is costing tens of billions of dollars?! Gas prices are through the roof! People can’t afford– people can’t afford their groceries! Is that why you’re pulling it?! You guys don’t have the or guts or the balls to vote on this! “The House will be in order,” the chair said, as Democrats cheered uproariously. “The House, this House will be in order!” Watch above via C-SPAN.The post ‘You Guys Don’t Have the Guts or the Balls!’ McGovern Fumes at Republicans on House Floor as Democrats Go Wild first appeared on Mediaite.

- ‘Piece of Crap’: Jessica Tarlov Tears Into ‘Shoddy’ Democratic AutopsyFox News host Jessica Tarlov tore into the Democratic Party’s autopsy of the 20204 election released on Thursday, calling the document a “piece of crap” full of unsourced claims and shocking gaps. Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin’s release of the report on Kamala Harris’s failed 2024 presidential bid against Donald Trump came after months of anger from within the party over the chair’s December announcement that the committee was scrapping the long-awaited document. The choice to finally share the autopsy, which Martin noted did not meet his standards, reportedly came after a call with Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) last week, where the governor “rattled” the chair with his displeasure with the choice to keep the report private. “For full transparency, I am releasing the report as we received it, in its entirety, unedited and unabridged,” Martin told CNN, which first published the full document. “It does not meet my standards, and it won’t meet your standards, but I am doing this because people need to be able to trust the Democratic Party and trust our word.” In her discussion with co-hosts on Thursday’s The Five, Tarlov echoed Martin in noting that it drew far more attention to hide the report than it would have to simply release it last year. “The time to look at it was a year ago, when it was available for release. They made it into a scandal when it wasn’t,” she said. “We’ve had a number of autopsies that have come out since the election, and they all say basically the same thing.” When asked by co-host Joey Jones why the DNC hadn’t chosen to release it sooner, Tarlov did not hold back, excoriating the autopsy and its author. She said: Because it’s a piece of crap. I mean, the fact we spent our money on this, the DNC dollars that could have gone to, you know, knocking on doors or whatever else, on an unfinished piece of shoddy work. There were no citations. It would be like, you know, X, Y, or Z happened, or this interview, and then no cites. You don’t know who said it. You don’t know how he came up with his numbers. So Ken Martin had to go in and redline the whole thing and say on the side, in the brackets– what’s it called– in the margins. He says, “No evidence for this, no evidence for this.” So he didn’t release it… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
- ‘Are You Out of Your F***ing Mind?’ Fetterman Aides Stunned After Senator Su...
Mariam Zuhaib/AP photo Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) suggested in a meeting with staff that he could be the Democratic vice presidential nominee in 2028, according to New York magazine. The idea stunned aides, given Fetterman’s unpopularity within the party. On Thursday, New York published a lengthy piece on Fetterman’s evolution into one of the Senate’s most fervent supporters of Israel, even as most of his Democratic colleagues have pumped the brakes on unconditional U.S. support for the country. The report details the outsized influence of an unpaid adviser named David “Dovi” Safier, “a writer of Jewish history and fundraiser for Orthodox causes.” New York noted that Safier has no known experience in government, let alone advising members of Congress. One Fetterman staffer told the publication that Safier “just kind of appeared” in Fetterman’s inner circle a few years ago. The report comes a day after it was reported that the senator’s chief of staff quit, in what was yet another departure from an office that has seen a mass exodus during the first-term senator’s tenure. It was the third departure of a chief of staff since Fetterman took office in 2023. “Fetterman’s dwindling inner circle has, by default, given Safier an unusually large influence,” New York said. “When he is on Capitol Hill, Safier will “hang out and sit in Fetterman’s office all day or walk with him to the floor,” a former staffer says. After their conversations, Fetterman would appear “far more radicalized,” the former staffer remembers. The chatter around the office is usually: “Oh God, Safier is here, and now John’s not gonna go to any of his meetings.” The report said Fetterman had several calls with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and that Safier always listens in. Last summer, Fetterman, who has seen a negative 108-point swing in his net approval rating among Democrats, convened a meeting with top advisers and suggested he could be a viable candidate for the vice presidential nomination in 2028, when he is up for reelection in the Senate. The idea floored those in attendance: The blowback Fetterman has received from Democratic voters has fueled the rumors that he might switch parties. His net approval rating among Pennsylvania Democrats has dropped 108 points since 2023, from plus 68 to minus 40, according to CNN. It’s a massive swing, and Fetterman has had trouble adjusting. Last summer, Fetterman called a rare meeting with… [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - Jake Tapper Presses Michael Cohen on His Request for a Trump Fund Payout: Do You...President Donald Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen told CNN’s Jake Tapper Thursday that he’s hoping to receive a portion of the $1.8 billion from Trump’s “Anti-Weaponization” fund. “So why do you think you deserve money from this fund?” Tapper asked. Cohen answered that his tax returns were leaked just like Trump’s were. Trump sued the IRS for $10 billion but agreed to drop the suit in exchange for what critics call the “slush fund” that could pay out to Trump allies, including J6 rioters. “The first time it happened, it happened by a guy named Jonathan Fry, who was an IRS agent out of San Francisco. He downloaded my information, put it on a thumb drive…improperly used the FinCEN system, and then gave that thumb drive to Michael Avenatti, who gave it to Ronan Farrow, and then reported on it,” Cohen said. “I learned two years ago that an individual named Charles E Littlejohn, who is the individual who stole Donald Trump’s tax documents, had stolen mine as well. So it didn’t just happen to me once. It happened twice.” “Yes or no, because I’m out of time,” Tapper said. “But I do want to ask you this: This fund is going to be supervised by Todd Blanche. And basically Trump is going to get to decide who gets it. Do you really think Donald Trump’s going to want you to have any money?” “Probably not. Okay, but wouldn’t that be something if he actually decided to do it?” Cohen said. “It would be something,” Tapper said. Other Trump cronies who have said they planned to seek money from the fund are MyPillow founder Mike Lindell, who said he and his company lost $400 million from “persecution” while trying to prove the 2020 election results were rigged, as well as former Trump campaign adviser Michael Caputo. Caputo told Tapper earlier Thursday that he was seeking a $2.7 million payout million payout, alleging he was targeted in the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation into the alleged links between Russia and Trump’s 2016 campaign.
