The Daily Signal reports on Joe Biden’s current political role, public statements, and party influence, with updates on investigations, policy advocacy, and his standing among Democrats.
President Joe Biden’s administration has set another record. A total of 14,509 illegal aliens were encountered at the southern border Monday by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the Washington Examiner reported, a record for total daily encounters. This number surpasses a record that was set just last week at a border that has become pure…
Is President Joe Biden treating the press better than former President Donald Trump did? It’s a low bar to argue he doesn’t describe the media as “enemies of the people.” Is he really treating them as they view themselves—as representatives of the people? Or is he not interested in addressing the people? Are they all…
When Rep. James Comer wondered on CNN whether special counsel David Weiss had indicted Hunter Biden on nine tax-related charges to protect him from having to be deposed in the House Oversight Committee and Accountability, Jake Tapper snarkily responded: “Yes, the classic rubric. He indicted him to protect him. I got it.” Well, yes. Indicting…
Hunter Biden defied a congressional subpoena on Wednesday, an action his father has previously said should be prosecuted. President Joe Biden said in October 2021 that individuals who defy subpoenas from the January 6 House Select Committee should be prosecuted, and the Justice Department indicted Steve Bannon for doing so in November 2021. Legal experts said the president’s son could…
President Joe Biden’s White House has hosted staff and leadership of the Southern Poverty Law Center at least 11 times, and congressional Republicans want answers about whether the Department of Education has used the SPLC to demonize concerned parents. Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., chairman of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, sent a letter Monday…
Many House Republicans say they anticipate an impeachment article of bribery against President Joe Biden after the impeachment inquiry wraps up. The House voted 221-212 Wednesday to formally authorize an impeachment inquiry into Biden. Bribery appears to be a potential article of impeachment, based on what the investigation has turned up thus far, said Rep….
Hunter Biden defied a congressional subpoena from House investigators Wednesday, but nevertheless may have “given up the store,” according to one leading House Republican. President Joe Biden’s son—indicted last week on federal tax charges—didn’t do a deposition, but did a press conference outside the Capitol, saying his father wasn’t “financially involved” in his business. The qualifier…
As House Republicans pressed Tuesday to advance an impeachment inquiry targeting President Joe Biden, Democrats decided to rehash Donald Trump’s two impeachments. The House Rules Committee ultimately voted 9-4 along party lines to adopt and send a resolution to the full House floor formalizing an impeachment inquiry into alleged influence peddling by the president and…
President Joe Biden’s economic performance is so indefensible that he has resorted to distorting his predecessor’s record, as if that will distract from the current economic malaise. It’s much like how Pinocchio, when caught doing wrong, lied about everyone around him to distract from his own failures and to blame others. But the average American…
Trouble has followed Sara Catherine Jones since she married into the Biden family almost three decades ago. Not long after her 1995 wedding to Jim Biden, she took a job with one of his brother Joe’s Senate donors, who later accused her of “fraud” and “unjust enrichment,” according to court records reviewed by RealClearInvestigations. In…
Terrisa Bukovinac is running for president of the United States as a Democrat. She also is staunchly pro-life, and her campaign is airing “explicit anti-abortion ads” in the Boston and New Hampshire markets beginning tonight. While the Democratic candidate has little to no chance of ousting President Joe Biden, her campaign is boosting her national…
Well, it’s about time. The Justice Department finally has obtained a serious indictment against Hunter Biden, one that charges him with nine felony and misdemeanor violations of federal tax law. Noticeably absent from the salacious, 56-page indictment issued Thursday evening are any charges related to the failure of President Joe Biden’s son to register as…
There’s a reason that President Joe Biden’s advisers keep his access to the press as minimal as they can. They don’t trust him to answer reporters in a way that helps his standing in the polls. It’s likely that he’ll lose his temper, or he’ll lie preposterously. On Wednesday, on the cusp of a Republican…
Hunter Biden’s indictment in California on tax charges turns up the heat on President Joe Biden, making it harder for him to dodge questions about “lies” he told the public, legal experts said Thursday night. A federal grand jury in California indicted Hunter Biden Thursday on nine charges stemming from his alleged failure to pay more than $1 million…
After being asked the other day why he’s interacted with “so many” foreign associates of his son Hunter and brother James, President Joe Biden responded by claiming the allegations were “a bunch of lies.” This, of course, wasn’t the first time the president blatantly lied about his role in the family influence-peddling business. You might…
The BorderLine is a weekly Daily Signal feature examining everything from the unprecedented illegal immigration crisis at the border to immigration’s impact on cities and states throughout the land. We will also shed light on other critical border-related issues like human trafficking, drug smuggling, terrorism, and more. ——————————————————— Thanks to President Joe Biden’s immigration policies, every American is…
The House will move next week to authorize an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden with regard to his family’s alleged influence peddling. In September, then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., endorsed an impeachment inquiry into Biden—but with no House vote to proceed on the investigation. On Dec. 12, the House Rules Committee will consider a…
The Biden administration has decided against striking back at Houthi targets for now, despite recent incidents in which U.S. warships in the region shot down Houthi attack drones flying toward the vessels, Politico reported. Some military officers believe the U.S. should mount a more forceful response to the Iran-backed Houthi rebels, but high-level politicians in the administration…
“Mr. President, it is time to tap the brakes on the unrealistic government electric vehicle mandate.” That’s the pointed message a whopping 3,882 automobile dealers from coast to coast sent in a joint open letter to President Joe Biden made public last week. We couldn’t have said it better—or more succinctly—ourselves. The auto dealers’ nine-paragraph letter explains—more…
The House last week moved to repeal an executive order by President Joe Biden that critics say could cause federal employees to violate a law prohibiting partisan politicking on the taxpayers’ dime. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre alluded Monday to the law, the Hatch Act, in avoiding an answer to a reporter’s direct question….
