The Ivy League think tank where lawyers found classified materials linked to the Obama White House is a patronage mill for the Biden administration, raising suspicions among critics that its establishment attracted tens of millions in donations from anonymous Chinese donors. The Department of Justice is probing how “a small number” of classified documents from President Biden’s years as vice president ended up at the Washington, DC, think tank that bears his name, the White House confirmed Monday. A second batch of papers was found at an additional location, it was reported Wednesday. Click for Full Text!

Some people live together by choice. Others share space out of necessity. Lack of affordable housing forces many families to adjust, but the zoning police remain rigid in Cobb County, Georgia. Even during a nationwide housing crisis, code enforcers northwest of Atlanta continue to enforce a narrow vision of suburbia. One rule limits overnight parking based on property size. Families can have one car for every 390 square feet of living space, which effectively prevents more than two vehicle owners from living together in a 1,000-square-foot unit. Click for Full Text!

Both of President Joe Biden’s Delaware homes appear to have the very appliance his administration is contemplating banning — gas stoves. Richard Trumka Jr., a top Consumer Product Safety Commission official who was nominated by Biden, told Bloomberg on Monday that banning the manufacture and import of gas stoves is “on the table” if they “can’t be made safe.” However, Biden’s home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware features an upscale kitchen “any gourmet chef would die for” that appears to have a gas-powered stove, according to a Long & Foster Real Estate listing. The Bidens purchased the home for $2.74 million in 2017. Click for Full Text!

Democratic politicians are portraying the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which requires health care professionals to provide necessary care to infants born alive after failed abortions, as an attack on women’s rights. Democratic Massachusetts Rep. Katherine Clark and Democratic California Reps. Judy Chu and Norma Torres characterized the legislation as an assault on women’s freedom and bodily autonomy. Certain tweets also appeared to refer to a resolution in the House of Representatives condemning violent attacks on pro-life groups. Click for Full Text!

The Defense Department has finally laid out its plan for protecting its cyber networks after years of pledging to make it a commitment. The Office of the Chief Information Officer released “The DoD Zero Trust Strategy” in November — which laid out metrics and deadlines for the department to achieve full zero trust adoption by 2027. Cybersecurity experts said the government and private sector should work together to leverage resources to successfully enter the new regime. Click for Full Text!
Gas Stove Ban Would Ravage Restaurant Industry; Its Spirit Would Destroy Far More

More than 72,000 restaurants were destroyed by misguided pandemic lockdowns. Thousands of these were in New York State, and many of those in the Big Apple, where restaurateurs must also contend with high rents and business-damaging “woke complaints.” Yet now they face another threat: a proposed ban on gas stoves that would reportedly cut their productivity 40 percent. Along with the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC’s) consideration of a nationwide gas-stove prohibition, New York governor Kathy Hochul is proposing to make her state our country’s first to ban natural gas heating and appliances in all new buildings.

House Republicans Want a Vote On the FairTax. Is It Worth Supporting?

When Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R–Calif.) finally secured the votes necessary to become the next House speaker, it required concessions to dissenters within his party. Members of the House Freedom Caucus demanded, among other things, a vote on the Fair Tax Act, which has been introduced in the current session. The Fair Tax Act, while likely doomed by a Democratic Senate and White House, represents the first serious challenge to the American tax code in recent memory. Versions of the act have been proposed since at least 1999. While it has never been voted on in the House, it has been endorsed by multiple Republican presidential candidates and Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson. ...

The US Government Versus Home Sweet Home

Over the last few decades the United States government has been working on degrading Americans’ homes one piece at a time. A new proposal the US government is considering would add gas stoves commonly used in the kitchens of homes across the country to its list of forbidden yet highly valued home items. Home sweet home keeps becoming more bitter as the US government mandates the elimination of home features that have contributed greatly to Americans’ comfort in their abodes. We know US government crackdowns on home comfort include the mandating in 1994 that new toilets use less than half the water to flush than most toilets used before. Also, the war against light bulbs choice is ...
Megyn Kelly to Newsmax: Docs Discovery Hurts Biden Politically

Megyn Kelly told Newsmax on Tuesday night the revelation that Joe Biden mishandled classified documents after his term as vice president ended in 2017 will not put him in legal jeopardy but will hurt him politically. “Joe Biden has already admitted he didn't declassify these documents,” Kelly told “Eric Bolling: The Balance.” “It's his lawyer saying that they were indeed classified, even top-secret, even with the most sensitive information in them. Joe Biden sitting there saying, ‘I have no idea what's in them. That's what my lawyer says.’ He’s not going be able to wiggle out of this.” Click for Full Text!
Colorado Voters Delivered a Win for Pharmacological Freedom

A decade ago, Colorado became the first state to legalize marijuana for recreational use, something 20 other states have done since then. Colorado set a new precedent for drug policy reform in November, when its voters approved a ballot initiative that decriminalizes a wide range of conduct related to consuming five natural psychedelics. Proposition 122 also authorizes state-licensed "healing centers" where adults 21 or older can obtain and use psychedelics. It represents the broadest loosening of legal restrictions on psychedelics the United States has ever seen. Click for Full Text!
New House Foreign Affairs Chair Michael McCaul Is a Standard Old-School Interventionist

For those who hoped the new Republican-led and Trump-approved House of Representatives under Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R–Calif.) might promote some of the better aspects of MAGA-ism, such as a foreign policy that recognized the mistakes of the past three decades, and charter a less bellicose and controlling path for the U.S. abroad, the ascension of Rep. Michael McCaul (R–Texas) to chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee should be unpleasant cold water. While the Trumpian strain in the GOP is supposed to favor a radical rethink of the U.S. mission to find and combat foreign adversaries with every sort of intervention, involvement, and pressure even if short of direct troop ...

Six days before the midterm elections, the White House reported on Monday, President Joe Biden's lawyers discovered "a small number of documents with classified markings," dating to his time as vice president, in an office at a Washington, D.C., think tank that he used from mid-2017 until the beginning of his 2020 campaign. Whoops. Former President Donald Trump predictably seized upon that revelation as evidence that the FBI's investigation of the government records he kept when he left the White House in January 2021 is much ado about nothing. "When is the FBI going to raid the many houses of Joe Biden, perhaps even the White House?" Trump asked on Truth ...

The Biden administration is preparing to end the COVID-19 emergency designation after previously extending it multiple times, according to Politico. The administration plans to extend the emergency designation by 90 days before the renewal period ends Wednesday, but aim to end the designation as soon as April, three people with knowledge of the matter told Politico. The emergency designation has been renewed 11 times since the start of the pandemic, and the Biden administration will need to alert states and health industry representatives at least 60 days before the end of the designation.

The 5th Circuit Says the ATF Exceeded Its Legal Authority When It Banned Bump Stocks

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit on Friday concluded that the Trump administration exceeded its legal authority when it criminalized the sale and possession of bump stocks in 2018. While the details of the 5th Circuit's decision in Cargill v. Garland might seem arcane, at bottom it upholds the separation of powers and the rule of law. The question posed by the case is not whether prohibiting bump stocks makes sense but who has the power to make that call: the legislative branch or an administrative agency that reinterpreted the law to ban products it had previously deemed legal. Bump stocks facilitate a rapid-firing technique in which the shooter maintains forward pressure ...

A federal judge upheld a West Virginia law requiring student athletes to compete with other members of their biological sex, dealing a blow to both the transgender movement and the Biden administration, which had supported the lawsuit challenging the statute. Southern District of West Virginia Judge Joseph Goodwin ruled Thursday that the Mountain State’s “Save Women’s Sports Act” (H.B. 3293), which requires athletic teams “sponsored by any public secondary school or a state institution of higher education” that are designated as female- only to deny entry to biological males, does not violate either the 14th Amendment or Title IX of the Education Amendments of ...

A North Carolina man faces charges of assault with intent to kill for exposing two detectives and a sheriff's deputy to opioids—possibly fentanyl—during a traffic stop on January 5. One detective reportedly lost consciousness after exposure to the drugs. Given the recent misleading reports of police overdosing by simply touching fentanyl, it's worth taking a closer look at cases like this. The New Hanover County Sheriff's Office put out a press release on Friday describing the arrest. The suspect, Lewis Rudolph Brown Drayton, 37, was a passenger in a vehicle pulled over by deputies on Interstate 40 as part of a drug investigation. Drayton allegedly responded by ...

The Oregon Department of Education has come under fire for a document published on Thursday, titled “Supporting Gender Expansive Students: Guidance for Schools,” which appears to counsel school staff to help students conceal their “expansive” gender identities from their parents. If a student declares a new gender identity, the guide instructs school districts to immediately begin treating them in accordance with that identity, informing teachers of their new name and pronouns, and updating their name on school records.
