Is that pardoned now? Thanks Joe,\u201d Maguire wrote in a post on X.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, President Biden issued a \u201cfull and unconditional pardon\u201d for his son Hunter Biden, covering any federal crimes committed or potentially committed between January 1, 2014, and December 1, 2024. Hunter Biden has faced federal charges related to tax violations and allegations of providing false information about his substance abuse issues on a firearm background check form. The move marks a shift from President Biden\u2019s earlier statements that he would not pardon his son<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHunter was our tenant in Venice, CA. Didn\u2019t pay rent for over a year. Tried to pay w\/ art made from his own feces. Absolute s\u2013 bag,\u201d Maguire wrote, adding in a follow-up post that the rent was $25,000 a month for the house, which is located on the canals in the city, Fox Business\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He also said that Hunter \u201cchanged the locks and used secret service to enforce. We had no access to the property.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When a social media user asked if Maguire and his family had tried to evict Hunter Biden over the unpaid rent, Maguire responded by saying that the Bidens are \u201ckind of a scary family to go after.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maguire\u2019s allegations of unpaid rent would be a civil matter and are not covered by a presidential pardon, which applies exclusively to federal crimes. Maguire\u2019s claim follows a previous allegation that Hunter Biden failed to pay a landlord tens of thousands of dollars in rent.<\/p>\n<p>Last year,\u00a0<em>DailyMail.com<\/em>\u00a0reported, citing sources familiar with the situation, that Hunter Biden owed Sweetgreen CEO and co-founder Jonathan Neman $80,000 in back rent\u2014equivalent to about three months\u2019 rent for a $25,000-a-month house in Venice.<\/p>\n<p>A federal judge has officially ended Hunter Biden\u2019s tax case after Joe Biden pardoned his son, but not before\u00a0harshly criticizing\u00a0the president\u2019s announcement about the clemency as misleading.<\/p>\n<p>In a five-page\u00a0order, U.S. District Judge Mark Scarsi of the Central District of California, a Trump appointee, said that \u201crepresentations contained\u201d in the president\u2019s news release about the pardon \u201cstand in tension with the case record.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The judge also said he didn\u2019t agree with the president\u2019s statement because it was hurtful to many public officials. He said that the pardon itself covered hours of unacceptable behavior in the future without permission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe President asserts that Mr. Biden \u2018was treated differently\u2019 from others \u2018who were late paying their taxes because of serious addictions,\u2019 implying that Mr. Biden was among those individuals who untimely paid taxes due to addiction,\u201d Scarsi wrote. \u201cBut he is not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added that also Joe Biden\u2019s claim that his son was \u201csingled out\u201d and \u201ctreated differently\u201d made it sound like many people in the legal system, including Scarsi and the president\u2019s own DOJ workers, did something wrong.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTwo federal judges expressly rejected Mr. Biden\u2019s arguments that the Government prosecuted Mr. Biden because of his familial relation to the President,\u201d Scarsi wrote. \u201cAnd the President\u2019s own Attorney General and Department of Justice personnel oversaw the investigation leading to the charges. In the President\u2019s estimation, this legion of federal civil servants, the undersigned included, are unreasonable people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Scarsi said that it wasn\u2019t his job to say whether or not Joe Biden\u2019s pardon was legal, but the fact that the president signed it on December 1 and included action \u201cthrough\u201d that same day meant that the president was breaking the Constitution by letting Hunter Biden get away with future crimes.<\/p>\n<p>Investigative journalist John Solomon has issued a stern warning to government officials, using the recent indictment of former FBI Director James Comey as a cautionary tale.<\/p>\n<p>Solomon, known for exposing corruption within the intelligence community, emphasized that Comey\u2019s legal troubles should serve as a wake-up call<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe James Comey case is just the tip of the iceberg,\u201d Solomon said. \u201cIf you abuse your power, if you lie to Congress, there will be consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He pointed to Comey\u2019s mishandling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation as one example of bureaucrats acting above the law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis isn\u2019t about politics,\u201d Solomon added. \u201cIt\u2019s about accountability. People who think they\u2019re untouchable are being reminded that no one is above the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Solomon warned that other officials could face scrutiny if investigations continue. \u201cThere are others in the system who think they can play fast and loose with the rules,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He praised President Donald J. Trump\u2019s administration for pursuing justice. \u201cThe fact that Comey has been indicted under Trump\u2019s DOJ shows that corruption will not be tolerated,\u201d Solomon explained.<\/p>\n<p>Solomon also highlighted the importance of transparency in government, stressing that public trust depends on holding officials accountable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe American people deserve honesty,\u201d he said. \u201cThey need to know that the people in charge are not manipulating investigations for personal or political gain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He referenced recent revelations about misuse of surveillance powers, saying, \u201cThese actions have real consequences. People who think they can operate in the shadows will be caught.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Solomon noted that Comey\u2019s indictment sends a message to other deep-state operatives. \u201cIt\u2019s a warning shot,\u201d he said. \u201cFollow the law, or face prosecution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The journalist also discussed the broader impact on federal agencies, suggesting that the culture of impunity may be coming to an end.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a historic moment,\u201d Solomon said. \u201cWe\u2019re seeing accountability being restored in agencies that have long acted above the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He called on Congress to support oversight efforts, ensuring that no official is able to evade responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a test for our democracy,\u201d Solomon said. \u201cIf leaders can commit crimes without consequences, the system fails.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Solomon praised Trump\u2019s DOJ for acting decisively. \u201cThis is what leadership looks like. When you see wrongdoing, you take action, no matter how powerful the person involved may be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also stressed the importance of media scrutiny. \u201cInvestigative reporting matters. Without journalists asking hard questions, abuses would go unnoticed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Solomon warned that the ripple effect of Comey\u2019s indictment could reach beyond Washington. \u201cOther states and agencies should take note \u2014 accountability is coming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He highlighted that whistleblowers and insiders have a role to play. \u201cIf you see misconduct, report it. The system is listening now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Solomon said he expects further revelations as investigations continue. \u201cThe Comey case is not an isolated incident. There are others whose actions will soon be exposed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He noted that this era could be a turning point in restoring public trust in federal institutions. \u201cThis is about cleaning house and restoring integrity,\u201d Solomon said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-891a9f5b1fe7c016aee74e3fc2657c57\">BREAKING: Anna Paulina Luna Claims The Biden DOJ DESTROYED\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Representative Anna Paulina Luna has leveled explosive information against the Biden Department of Justice, claiming that critical materials related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation have been deliberately destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>This assertion, if proven true, would represent one of the most damning instances of governmental obstruction and cover-up in recent history.<\/p>\n<p>Luna, who chairs a congressional task force focused on federal transparency, has stated unequivocally that she possesses evidence implicating high-ranking officials in the DOJ.<\/p>\n<p>According to her, these officials not only failed to disclose materials related to Epstein but actively destroyed them to conceal the extent of powerful individuals\u2019 involvement in Epstein\u2019s criminal network.<\/p>\n<p>She introduced legislation titled the SHRED Act, aimed at imposing severe penalties on government agents who destroy or conceal federal records. The proposed bill calls for 20 years to life in prison for anyone caught eliminating evidence in cases of national significance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven if they are conducting a criminal investigation, you should probably pick up the phone and call us,\u201d Luna told Fox News. \u201cWe have been more than patient.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>These developments come amid growing conservative suspicion that the Biden administration has no interest in unmasking Epstein\u2019s full network. The notion that key records could be gone forever only intensifies fears that justice is being buried under a bureaucratic rug.<\/p>\n<p>Luna\u2019s office has reportedly sent multiple requests to the Department of Justice demanding clarity on the handling of Epstein-related materials. So far, those inquiries have been met with either vague responses or complete silence.<\/p>\n<p>The congresswoman did not mince words in her public statements, suggesting that the DOJ\u2019s behavior constitutes a deliberate act of obstruction. If true, such actions could violate federal law and trigger an entirely new legal battle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Biden DOJ has obstructed Congress, ignored subpoenas, and now appears to have destroyed critical evidence,\u201d Luna said. \u201cThis is corruption at the highest level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Critics argue that this is yet another example of double standards in Washington. \u201cHad this been a Republican-led DOJ accused of destroying documents in a child sex trafficking case, the media would be apoplectic,\u201d one conservative commentator noted.<\/p>\n<p>For years, the Epstein case has symbolized the deep rot within America\u2019s elite circles. The financier\u2019s suspicious death in prison and the subsequent lack of high-profile indictments have fueled accusations of a widespread cover-up.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Luna\u2019s allegations breathe new life into those concerns. If records were indeed destroyed, the implications are profound. It would mean that the DOJ, under Biden, actively shielded criminals from justice.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more troubling is that these destroyed materials could have named prominent individuals\u2014politicians, celebrities, and global financiers\u2014who participated in or enabled Epstein\u2019s crimes.<\/p>\n<p>In this context, Luna\u2019s SHRED Act isn\u2019t just legislative symbolism. It is a clarion call for accountability in an era marked by elite impunity. Her bill seeks to ensure that future officials think twice before erasing truth from the historical record.<\/p>\n<p>Despite Luna\u2019s repeated calls for transparency, there has been no formal response from Attorney General Merrick Garland. The silence speaks volumes to many who believe the DOJ is stonewalling on purpose.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, conservative lawmakers have rallied behind Luna. A growing number of Republicans in the House and Senate are voicing support for investigations into the DOJ\u2019s handling of Epstein evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Some have even floated the idea of appointing a special counsel to probe the matter independently. Given the stakes, such a move may be the only path forward to restore public confidence.<\/p>\n<p>This latest scandal further erodes the credibility of an already battered Department of Justice. From the Hunter Biden laptop fiasco to the political targeting of conservatives, the agency has been repeatedly accused of partisanship.<\/p>\n<p>Now, with Epstein documents allegedly destroyed, the DOJ\u2019s credibility is in tatters. Public trust, once broken, is hard to rebuild.<\/p>\n<p>The American people deserve the truth. And if Luna\u2019s allegations are accurate, they deserve justice, no matter how high the guilty parties sit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-x-large-font-size\">BREAKING: Tom Homan Reveals an Investigation is Underway Into AOC For\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Border Czar Tom Homan confirmed that a federal investigation is underway into Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for allegedly employing a criminal illegal alien and helping others evade federal immigration authorities.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking from his post as one of President Trump\u2019s top immigration officials, Homan revealed that ICE has launched a formal probe after multiple allegations emerged against the congresswoman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a live federal investigation. We\u2019ve asked ICE to take immediate action,\u201d Homan said during a televised interview.<\/p>\n<p>The individual in question is reportedly an undocumented alien with a criminal record, unlawfully hired by AOC\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p>According to internal reports, the employee had multiple encounters with law enforcement and should have been deported years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Homan stressed that AOC\u2019s potential interference with ICE operations could amount to obstruction of justice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis goes beyond hiring an illegal alien. There\u2019s evidence she actively helped shield this person from deportation,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Conservative leaders are sounding the alarm, warning that this may be only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to far-left officials flouting immigration laws.<\/p>\n<p>AOC has long been known for championing sanctuary cities and attacking border agents, often labeling them as \u201cracist\u201d and \u201coppressors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now, critics say her reckless rhetoric has crossed over into potentially criminal behavior.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf a sitting congresswoman used her office to harbor an illegal alien, that\u2019s a clear violation of federal law,\u201d Homan declared.<\/p>\n<p>Sources inside ICE say agents have already gathered documentation and begun interviewing individuals connected to the case.<\/p>\n<p>Evidence suggests AOC may have leveraged her political power to block enforcement action against the individual she employed.<\/p>\n<p>House Republicans are demanding accountability, with several calling for a formal ethics investigation into her conduct.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is what happens when radicals gain power. They think the law doesn\u2019t apply to them,\u201d said Rep. Andy Biggs.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats quickly circled the wagons, accusing Homan of launching a political smear campaign.<\/p>\n<p>But Homan stood firm, reminding the public that the law is the law and political office offers no immunity from prosecution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis isn\u2019t about politics. It\u2019s about national security and public trust,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Homan emphasized that ICE agents are working independently and that the White House is not interfering in the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are following the facts. If those facts point to criminal activity, then action will be taken,\u201d Homan confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>Legal experts say AOC could face charges ranging from unlawful employment to obstruction of federal agents, depending on the evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Citizens outraged by the news are demanding swift justice and a full public accounting of the congresswoman\u2019s actions.<\/p>\n<p>Homan urged Americans not to let political ideology blind them to the seriousness of the allegations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe must restore the rule of law,\u201d he concluded. \u201cNo one, no matter how powerful, is above it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-x-large-font-size\">BREAKING: The FBI Launches Criminal Investigation Into..<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s finally happening.<\/p>\n<p>John Brennan and James Comey\u2014two of the most powerful Obama-era intelligence chiefs\u2014are now facing criminal investigations.<\/p>\n<p>Their role in pushing the fabricated Trump-Russia collusion narrative derailed a presidency and deceived the nation.<\/p>\n<p>Sources inside the Justice Department confirm that former CIA Director Brennan is under investigation for allegedly lying to Congress.<\/p>\n<p>Ex-FBI Director Comey is also the subject of an ongoing probe.<\/p>\n<p>Their roles in the origin and manipulation of the Trump-Russia hoax are being scrutinized, years after millions of Americans demanded accountability.<\/p>\n<p>Brennan is accused of pushing the phony Steele dossier into official intelligence assessments.<\/p>\n<p>CIA Russia experts warned the document was so flawed it didn\u2019t meet even \u201cthe most basic tradecraft standards.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJasmine Crockett didn\u2019t just insult Trump,\u201d Leavitt said during her White House briefing. \u201cShe smeared over 70 million Americans who believe in freedom, God, secure borders, and the Constitution. Calling them mentally ill is not just false\u2014it\u2019s dangerous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brennan ignored the warnings and formalized his demand in writing, insisting the fake dossier be included anyway.<\/p>\n<p>James Comey, for his part, did the same.<\/p>\n<p>The CIA\u2019s review makes clear: FBI leadership under Comey pressured the intelligence community to embed the Steele dossier in their final report on Russian election interference.<\/p>\n<p>The FBI \u201crepeatedly pushed\u201d for its inclusion.<\/p>\n<p>These two didn\u2019t just make bad calls. They rigged the process.<\/p>\n<p>Even worse, Brennan later told Congress under oath that the Steele dossier \u201cwasn\u2019t part of the corpus of intelligence\u201d used in the Russia assessment.<\/p>\n<p>But a newly surfaced email shows that he pushed the dossier hard, despite being warned it could destroy the report\u2019s credibility.<\/p>\n<p>And why did they push it so aggressively? Because it wasn\u2019t about national security.<\/p>\n<p>It was about kneecapping President Trump before he was even sworn in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis was Obama, Comey, Clapper, and Brennan deciding, \u2018We\u2019re going to screw Trump,\u2019\u201d former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe told the press.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey all knew what they were doing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Millions of tax dollars were wasted. Reputations were destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJasmine Crockett should visit a Trump rally before shooting her mouth off,\u201d Leavitt challenged.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019ll meet grandmothers, veterans, farmers, teachers, truckers\u2014all proud Americans who just want their country back. These are the people she called mentally ill. What an absolute disgrace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And for what? To push Hillary Clinton\u2019s opposition research as gospel truth.<\/p>\n<p>Clinton and the DNC paid Fusion GPS to dig up dirt.<\/p>\n<p>Fusion hired British ex-spy Christopher Steele. Steele gave them fiction.<\/p>\n<p>Senator Josh Hawley demanded action: \u201cIf Brennan and Comey lied to Congress or weaponized their agencies against a political opponent, they should be prosecuted\u2014no exceptions, no excuses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This scandal is bigger than Watergate.<\/p>\n<p>It poisoned public trust, warped the 2016 election aftermath, and set the tone for years of baseless attacks on a sitting president.<\/p>\n<p>The investigations are underway.<\/p>\n<p>Now the question is, will the justice system do its job, or will the same people who buried the truth for years bury it again?<\/p>\n<p>Brennan and Comey must be held accountable.<\/p>\n<p>No one is above the law, not even the architects of one of the most dishonest political smear campaigns in American history.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-x-large-font-size\">BREAKING: Joe Biden Admits to New York Times That\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Joe Biden admitted to The New York Times that he did not personally sign off on every pardon and commutation issued during his presidency, an acknowledgment that has sparked intense debate over how involved he truly was in carrying out one of the most consequential powers of the office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI made every decision on the categories and top-level individuals, but the mechanics were left to staff,\u201d Biden told the Times. That sentence alone sent shockwaves through political and legal communities.<\/p>\n<p>According to the New York Post, Biden\u2019s White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients authorized the use of the autopen to execute a sweeping set of clemency actions on January 19, 2025. This included about 2,500 pardons and 1,500 commutations.<\/p>\n<p>The New York Post confirmed, \u201cBiden admitted that he didn\u2019t review every clemency case individually and that his chief of staff, Jeff Zients, authorized the use of the autopen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The same report added, \u201cThe autopen application, which Biden also used to sign some legislation, allowed staff to speed up paperwork processing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While Biden insisted, as quoted in ABC News, that he personally made \u201cevery decision,\u201d he conceded that he did not individually sign off on each document, saying, \u201cI approved each of the clemency decisions before they were issued.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Beast quoted Biden dismissing Republican criticism: \u201cThat is utter BS,\u201d he said, responding to allegations that he had no hand in the clemency spree.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Biden\u2019s comments confirmed the worst fears of critics who have questioned his cognitive fitness and decision-making capacity. As Time reported, the final flurry of clemency actions was conducted with Biden out of public view.<\/p>\n<p>Time added context, noting, \u201cEmails show Biden\u2019s chief of staff, Jeff Zients, approved the use of the autopen to execute clemency documents on the president\u2019s behalf.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the same article, the legal implications were underscored: \u201cWhile it is legally permissible, it is extremely rare for a president to use an autopen to sign something as consequential as a clemency order.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Republican leaders swiftly seized on the opportunity to highlight Biden\u2019s detachment. House Oversight Chair James Comer was quoted as saying, \u201cThis isn\u2019t just about a signature. It\u2019s about transparency, accountability, and who really was making decisions in that White House.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Comer continued, as cited in ABC News, \u201cWe are investigating whether this use of the autopen was a way to obscure Biden\u2019s declining capacity and whether any of the beneficiaries had connections to the administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The legal debate over autopen use isn\u2019t new, but Biden\u2019s large-scale application is unprecedented. According to Time, \u201cIt has never been used on this scale or for something with the constitutional gravity of a pardon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even some Democrats were privately concerned. One DNC strategist, speaking anonymously to Politico, said, \u201cIt feeds the narrative that Biden isn\u2019t all there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The same strategist added, \u201cIf he wasn\u2019t fully engaged on something as serious as clemency, what else was he rubber-stamping?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In response to concerns, the Daily Beast reported that Biden maintained, \u201cEach recipient was vetted and met the established standards for clemency.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But skepticism remains. As Time highlighted, \u201cThe Justice Department is now investigating whether any of the pardons were improperly influenced.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This adds to a growing list of concerns among voters and lawmakers alike. ABC News reported that the clemency decisions were made with \u201cspeed and secrecy,\u201d raising transparency questions.<\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump, seizing the moment, weighed in: \u201cHe didn\u2019t have the guts or the capacity to do his job,\u201d he said during a recent rally, as quoted in The Daily Beast.<\/p>\n<p>Trump added, \u201cYou don\u2019t get to hide behind a machine when you\u2019re playing with the law.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BREAKING \u2013\u00a0Rep.
