| | | WHAT WE'RE WATCHING | | 💥 Democrats push to limit Trump's military powers before he takes office. Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) urged President Biden to issue a directive restricting Trump's ability to deploy troops domestically, as they fret that Trump may use the military to secure the border or address "radical left lunatics." The directive would require states to request federal assistance before troops could be deployed. | 💰 An investigative journalism giant receives half its funding from the US government. The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, whose reporting on Rudy Giuliani in Ukraine was cited in the whistleblower letter behind Trump's first impeachment, is primarily funded by USAID and other US agencies, contributing over $47 million since its founding. The organization has also been credited with helping to topple multiple governments through its investigative reporting. | 🦠 Congress wrapped up its COVID report. A two-year investigation by the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic concluded that COVID-19 "most likely" originated from a Wuhan lab conducting gain-of-function research. The report also revealed that social distancing guidelines "sort of just appeared," according to Dr. Anthony Fauci, and found no conclusive evidence that masks protected Americans. | 🇦🇴 Biden is making his first trip to Africa. President Biden's visit to Angola marks his first trip to Africa as president, focusing on the Lobito Rail Corridor, a US-backed project to transport critical minerals like cobalt. Meanwhile, Chinese President Xi Jinping, who has visited Africa several times to build stronger relationships, is leading the US in securing important resources through major investments and partnerships. |

Sohrab Ahmari claimed that two former senior leaders of the Concerned Veterans for America denied allegations made by The New Yorker that Pete Hegseth was forced to step down as president due to misconduct. Sunny Hostin was forced to read yet another legal note on The View regarding accusations against Pete Hegseth. Sen. John Thune (R-SD) — who will soon be the Senate majority leader — signaled that Congress will continue investigating Biden family corruption despite Hunter's pardon. Dinesh D'Souza issued an apology to a Georgia man he wrongly identified as a "ballot mule" in his 2022 film 2000 Mules.

| | | CRIME AND JUSTICE | President Biden sparks bipartisan outrage by pardoning Hunter | | President Joe Biden's decision to pardon the crimes of his son, Hunter Biden, sent shockwaves through the political world. The sweeping clemency covering all potential federal offenses Hunter committed between 2014 and 2024 is one of the broadest in modern history, drawing comparisons to Gerald Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon. | The scope of the pardon insulates Hunter Biden from any federal charges, including lying about his drug addiction on mandatory paperwork to purchase a gun, illegally possessing a firearm while addicted to crack cocaine, and two tax misdemeanors for failing to pay over $1.4 million in taxes on time. His upcoming trial in California would have addressed nine additional federal tax charges related to his finances and lifestyle during the past decade. | Even some Democrats have slammed the president over this move. Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet (D) said the pardon "further erodes Americans' faith that the justice system is fair and equal for all." | Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan went off on the president, remarking that he "no longer has any f's to give" on escalating the Ukraine war, opening the southern border, and about "issuing a pardon he promised, over and over and over, he'd never issue." | The pardon was designed not only to protect Hunter but to preempt future investigations by the incoming Trump administration, which has vowed to probe the Biden family. President Biden defended the pardon by claiming his son was "singled out" for political reasons, though he and the White House repeatedly and emphatically assured the public that he would not pardon Hunter. | The move by President Biden also now makes it more likely for Donald Trump to exonerate Jan. 6 defendants, since Biden now set the precedent for handing out controversial pardons. Trump even alluded to this, saying, "Does the Pardon given by Joe to Hunter include the J-6 Hostages, who have now been imprisoned for years? Such an abuse and miscarriage of Justice!" | |
