Ashley Biden, the daughter of former President Joe Biden, has filed for divorce from her plastic surgeon husband, Dr. Howard Krein, after over 13 years of marriage, according to court records.<\/p>\n
The 44-year-old ex-first daughter filed the paperwork in Philadelphia\u2019s Court of Common Pleas on Monday, according to The Post.<\/p>\n
Biden\u2019s Instagram post on the same day showed a photo of her walking through a park and flashing a thumbs up, set to the tune \u201cFreedom\u201d by Beyonc\u00e9.<\/p>\n
She also posted a quote that read, \u201cNew life, new beginnings, means new boundaries. New ways of being that won\u2019t look or sound like they did before.\u201d<\/p>\n
The cause of the separation was not immediately obvious. Divorce records are not made public in Philadelphia. Two years after her late older brother, Beau Biden, introduced them, Biden and Krein tied the knot in Greenville, Delaware, in June 2012.<\/p>\n
Ashley acknowledged her wedding on the national stage while presenting her father at the Democratic National Convention last year.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the time, my dad was vice president, but he was also that dad who literally set up the entire reception. He was riding around in his John Deere 4-wheeler, fixing the place settings, arranging the plants, and by the way, he was very emotional,\u201d she told the crowd.<\/p>\n
Joe Biden himself is also facing brutal news this week.<\/p>\n
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer says his investigation into Joe Biden\u2019s mental decline could be used to challenge some of the former president\u2019s pardons and executive orders, arguing staff have failed to prove Biden knew what he was signing in his final months in office.<\/p>\n
The Kentucky Republican\u00a0told\u00a0\u201cJust the News\u201d that Biden\u2019s frequent use of the autopen raises serious legal concerns.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s questionable whether or not it\u2019s legal to use an autopen on a legal document, but what\u2019s not questionable is if the President of the United States had no idea what was being signed with using the autopen in his name,\u201d Comer said. \u201cThen, you know, that\u2019s not legal. We could see criminal charges against some.\u201d<\/p>\n
Comer said his committee\u2019s evidence could also be used to call into question some of Biden\u2019s clemency acts, noting that the president\u2019s poor summer 2024 debate performance \u201cgave rise to questions about his mental capacity.\u201d<\/p>\n
Biden dropped out of the race one month later and endorsed Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think at the end of the day, our investigation \u2026 could be used as evidence in trying to overturn some of those pardons and some of the executive orders, because the autopen was used so frequently \u2026 after that debate,\u201d Comer said.<\/p>\n
Former Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz told\u00a0Just the News<\/em>\u00a0in March that such challenges would \u201cend up in court.\u201d He explained there would be two main issues: \u201cOne, the nature of what was signed \u2013 was it a pardon, or was it a bill from Congress, for example. And second, the nature of the autopen.\u201d<\/p>\n Dershowitz said the Constitution states of bills: \u201c\u2018If he approves, he shall sign it.\u2019 So it says, \u2018sign it.\u2019 Sign it. So an autopen would raise a real problem if he signed it by autopen, which is not a real signature.\u201d<\/p>\n On pardons, he said, \u201cit will still raise the issue: Did he actually pardon? Or did somebody else just write the signature without really getting approval from President Biden?\u201d<\/p>\n Biden\u2019s first debate of the 2024 campaign season was described as \u201chalting\u201d and \u201cdisoriented,\u201d with former Obama adviser David Axelrod saying, \u201cI think there was a sense of shock actually, how he came out at the beginning of this debate\u2026 I think the panic had set in.\u201d<\/p>\n Republicans had long questioned Biden\u2019s mental capacity.<\/p>\n Special Counsel Robert Hur\u2019s February 2025 report on Biden\u2019s handling of classified documents noted he \u201cwould likely present himself\u2026 as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.\u201d Hur said Biden could not recall the years he was vice president or the year his son Beau died.<\/p>\n Last month, Biden defended his decisions regarding pardons to The New York Times, stating, \u201cI made every decision\u201d on pardons; however, aides confirmed that he \u201cdid not individually approve each name for the categorical pardons.\u201d<\/p>\n The Trump administration has opened a federal investigation into U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) over allegations that she employed an undocumented immigrant on her staff and helped other illegal aliens evade Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.This investigation comes amid a wider crackdown on immigration violations and political figures allegedly facilitating illegal activities, with Ocasio-Cortez at the center of this controversy.The investigation, announced by Tom Homan, the former Acting Director of ICE, has sparked a political firestorm. Ocasio-Cortez is under suspicion for two main offenses: hiring an undocumented immigrant as a staff member and allegedly teaching others how to avoid ICE arrests.<\/p>\n The situation has ignited heated debates over immigration policy, Congressional accountability, and the limits of political activism.The investigation stems from claims that Ocasio-Cortez hired Diego de la Vega, an undocumented immigrant, as a Deputy Communications Director in 2022. De la Vega, despite being in the U.S. illegally, had previously worked as a special assistant to former Harlem Assemblymember Robert J. Rodriguez and as an intern for Representative Carolyn Maloney (D-NY).<\/p>\n His political involvement began in 2010 when he supported the DREAM Act, a bill aimed at providing a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children.Ocasio-Cortez has publicly praised de la Vega, calling him \u201camazing,\u201d and has been vocal in her support of immigrant rights. However, the alleged hiring of an undocumented worker, particularly in a high-profile political office, has raised serious questions about how de la Vega could have obtained a position in Congress while violating U.S. immigration laws.<\/p>\n According to Tom Homan, this type of illegal activity is a direct violation of the law. “It\u2019s being looked at. I\u2019m aware of it, we\u2019ve asked ICE to drill in on that case,” Homan said during an interview with conservative podcaster Benny Johnson. “If someone is knowingly helping others to avoid removal, that\u2019s a crime.”<\/p>\n The investigation also examines Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s involvement in hosting seminars and providing advice to undocumented immigrants on how to avoid deportation.<\/p>\n In early 2022, she organized a “Know Your Rights” webinar that offered legal advice to illegal immigrants, teaching them how to respond when approached by ICE agents. The event was hosted in both English and Spanish and included discussions about immigrants\u2019 constitutional rights in the United States.The congresswoman\u2019s office also supplied materials to attendees, including a pamphlet instructing immigrants that they did not have to open the door for ICE agents unless they had a judge-signed warrant.Further, Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s team reportedly provided information on how to access pro bono legal assistance and encouraged undocumented individuals to sign privacy release forms, which would allow her office to intervene in deportation proceedings.While the “Know Your Rights” seminar was framed as a way to educate immigrants about their legal protections, critics argue that it goes beyond merely informing people and instead actively facilitates efforts to evade law enforcement.The potential legal ramifications of such actions are being scrutinized as part of the investigation.Homan, when speaking on the podcast, said that Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s actions were a form of \u201ceducating people on how to avoid prosecution.\u201d He emphasized that \u201cknowingly hindering someone\u2019s removal\u201d from the country is illegal and that anyone involved in such actions could face legal consequences.The investigation into Ocasio-Cortez follows a request from Homan to the Deputy Attorney General for a formal probe into the congresswoman\u2019s actions. The allegations are part of a larger focus on political figures who may be aiding illegal immigration, either through employment or activism.<\/p>\n Homan and other immigration law enforcement officials have expressed concern that such activities, especially those by elected officials, could undermine national immigration enforcement efforts and embolden those seeking to evade deportation.In particular, the investigation into Ocasio-Cortez has raised questions about how an undocumented individual could gain access to sensitive political environments and whether Ocasio-Cortez violated any laws in hiring de la Vega.\u201cIt\u2019s not possible,\u201d Homan stressed, regarding how an undocumented immigrant could be employed in Congress without proper oversight. \u201cWe have to hold people accountable for their actions. If these claims are accurate, Representative Ocasio-Cortez will be held responsible.\u201dIn response to the allegations, Ocasio-Cortez has forcefully denied any wrongdoing, calling the investigation politically motivated. She argued that her actions were aimed at providing legal advice to people facing significant barriers, including threats of deportation.\u201cI\u2019ve asked them, they haven\u2019t responded to me,\u201d Ocasio-Cortez said in a Fox News interview. \u201cBut you know, I was once again fully using the First Amendment to inform people of their constitutional rights.\u201dShe went on to claim that the investigation was part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to target political opponents.\u201cIf they\u2019re going to detain an elected official without any actual grounds, that would represent a tremendous sea change and escalation in what this administration is willing to do to bend laws and norms,\u201d she added. \u201cWe need to think about the global consequences of what that means for the United States.\u201dOcasio-Cortez\u2019s claim that the investigation is politically motivated aligns with her long-standing rhetoric against the Trump administration\u2019s immigration policies, which she has described as \u201ccruel\u201d and \u201cinhumane.\u201d However, critics argue that she is using political arguments to deflect from the legality of her actions.<\/p>\n The controversy surrounding Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s alleged actions has brought the issue of immigration enforcement to the forefront of political discourse once again.While Ocasio-Cortez is widely popular among progressives, the investigation has sparked debate about the role of elected officials in influencing or enabling illegal immigration.Some have argued that her seminars and advocacy for immigrant rights were an essential part of her work as a representative, particularly in a district with a large immigrant population.Others, however, view these actions as potentially crossing legal and ethical lines, with serious consequences for the integrity of U.S. immigration laws.The legal investigation may not only have implications for Ocasio-Cortez but also for the broader Democratic Party, which has consistently called for more lenient immigration policies.The outcome of this case could influence how politicians across the country engage with immigration issues and whether they face legal scrutiny for advocating on behalf of undocumented individuals.Ocasio-Cortez is not alone in advocating for immigrant rights, nor is she the only public figure to have faced scrutiny for her stance on immigration. Across the U.S., politicians and activists have continued to push for more lenient policies and protections for undocumented immigrants.However, Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s position as a high-profile, progressive member of Congress means that her actions are being closely watched by both supporters and critics.<\/p>\n Her \u201cKnow Your Rights\u201d seminars, though aimed at educating undocumented immigrants about their rights, have faced criticism for potentially encouraging people to evade the legal system.The balance between providing support for vulnerable populations and upholding the rule of law is a delicate one, and Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s case highlights the complexities involved in immigration policy advocacy.As the federal investigation into Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s actions unfolds, it will likely remain a point of contention in U.S. political discourse. If the investigation leads to charges, it could have serious legal and political consequences for the congresswoman and her supporters.The case may also set a precedent for how immigration-related activism is treated under U.S. law, particularly when elected officials are involved.For now, Ocasio-Cortez maintains that she acted within the bounds of her duties as a representative, claiming that her actions were protected under the First Amendment.However, the ongoing investigation will determine whether her efforts to support undocumented immigrants violated federal laws and whether the potential consequences of such actions are sufficient to hold her accountable.The investigation into Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s alleged involvement in employing an undocumented immigrant and assisting others in evading ICE has sparked a heated political and legal debate.With the Trump administration\u2019s focus on immigration enforcement and the growing scrutiny of political figures on both sides of the aisle, the case is expected to have lasting consequences for how immigration laws are enforced and how lawmakers interact with vulnerable populations.<\/p>\n The tragic accident that occurred on the morning of last Sunday, July 16, on the CE-060 highway, between Cariria\u00e7u and Juazeiro do Norte, casts a veil of mourning over the Cariri region.The irreparable loss of an entire family, made up of H\u00e9rida Nascimento da Silva, Sebasti\u00e3o C\u00edcero Gomes and little Miguel Nascimento Gomes,<\/p>\n just 3 years old, highlights the fragility of life and the unpredictability of destiny.<\/p>\n The information, broadcast by TV Verdes Mares and confirmed by the Cear\u00e1 Military Fire Department, paints a bleak picture<\/p>\n Six members of a Malaysian family, including a six-month-old baby, were found dead in their car submerged in the Sungai Korok river, Kedah.<\/span><\/p>\n The family had been reported missing since July 5 when they failed to return home to Jerlun after spending the night at a relative’s house in Taman Aman, Jitra,\u00a0The Star<\/em>\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n The Kedah Fire and Rescue Department said the bodies were found on July 7 during a search operation.<\/p>\n Senior Fire Superintendent Ahmad Aminuddin Abd Rahim, Zone 1 chief, said four bodies had been retrieved and brought to the riverbank, while two others, believed to be the parents, remained inside the vehicle at the time.<\/p>\n Firefighters had to cut open the roof to remove the victims, all of whom were found in the back seat. Authorities believe they may have been trying to escape as the car sank,\u00a0Sinar Harian<\/em>\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n The car was only about 1 meter from the riverbank, submerged at a depth of around 6 meters, Ahmad Aminuddin said, adding that the operation was not too difficult as the vehicle was already floating and could be pulled to shore.<\/p>\n The victims were identified as Mohd Azim Ezzat Ishak, 32, his wife Nurul Hidayah Khalijah Razman Effendy, 31, and their four children aged between six months and nine years.<\/p>\n Authorities are continuing recovery efforts and investigating the cause of the tragedy<\/p>\n seemore<\/p>\n A car believed to belong to a family that went missing almost 70 years ago is set to be pulled from a river in Oregon, authorities have said.<\/p>\n The Martin family vanished in December 1958 after heading to find a Christmas tree in their Ford station wagon, per\u00a0The Oregonian<\/em>.<\/p>\n Ken and Barbara Martin were thought to have taken their daughters Barbara, 14, Virginia, 13, and Sue, 11, on a ride to the mountains for the greenery, per previous\u00a0Associated Press\u00a0reports. However, they never returned.<\/p>\n The news agency stated that authorities looking for the missing family managed to narrow down the search to the Cascade Locks near the Columbia River after learning that Ken Martin had used a credit card to buy gas at a station in the area.<\/p>\n The body of the youngest daughter Sue, 11, was discovered in the river near Camas, Washington, around five months after the family went missing, per the AP, before 13-year-old Virginia’s body was found the following day approximately 25 miles upstream from where Sue’s remains were discovered. The rest of the family hasn’t been found.<\/p>\n Ken Martin family via AP, File<\/p>\n On Thursday, March 6, the Hood River County Sheriff’s Office confirmed officers were “attempting to recover a vehicle from the Columbia River near Cascade Locks.”\u00a0<\/p>\n “This vehicle is believed to be associated with the 1958 missing persons case involving the Martin Family,” a\u00a0Facebook\u00a0post stated, adding, “An independent diver discovered what is believed to be the vehicle the family was last seen in. This is an active investigation, and further details will be available at a later time.”<\/p>\n Per the AP, authorities called off the search just before dark on Thursday evening and will continue to attempt to get the vehicle out of the water on Friday, March 7.<\/p>\n AP Photo<\/p>\n The news agency reported that the vehicle had been found by diver Archer Mayo, who discovered it upside down at around 50 feet deep in the water after searching for it for seven years. The diver’s representative, Ian Costello, said the car was covered in salmon guts, silt and mussel shells.\u00a0<\/p>\n Mayo reportedly found other cars nearby, and Costello said those vehicles will need to be removed before the station wagon comes out, per the AP.<\/p>\n Hood River County sheriff\u2019s deputy, Pete Hughes, said of what they think is the Martin family car, \u201cWe\u2019re not 100% sure it\u2019s the car. It\u2019s mostly encased in mud and debris, so we don\u2019t know what to expect when we pull it out of the water today,” the news agency reported.<\/p>\n \u201cWe don\u2019t know what we will find,\u201d the officer said when questioned whether he thought they’d find bodies in the other vehicles, the AP stated.<\/p>\n AP Photo, File<\/p>\n Never miss a story \u2014 sign up for\u00a0PEOPLE’s free daily newsletter\u00a0to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer\u200b\u200b, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cMore than circumstantial evidence points us to believe it\u2019s the Martin car,\u201d Sheriff Matt English told reporters on Thursday, reported\u00a0The Oregonian<\/em>.<\/p>\n \u201cEven though this is 66 years ago, this is a tragedy.
