Former President Joe Biden stirred controversy last year by granting his son, Hunter Biden, a blanket pardon for all federal offenses. The move has not deterred Republicans from pursuing investigations, despite the legal shield the pardon provides. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan emphasized the need for continued scrutiny, particularly focusing on David Weiss. Jordan expressed his committee’s intent to closely examine David Weiss, the former special counsel investigating Hunter Biden. During an interview with Politico, Jordan noted that Weiss was uncooperative during previous questioning, citing an ongoing investigation. The Ohio lawmaker underscored the importance of addressing Weiss’s role in…

A CRJ700 jet operated by PSA Airlines, under contract with American Airlines, collided with a military H-60 Black Hawk helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. Tragically, this midair crash resulted in the loss of 67 lives. The collision occurred as the CRJ700 was on its final approach to runway 33, just across the Potomac River from the nation’s capital. As a professional pilot, I shared my perspective on the incident, recognizing that the NTSB will conduct a detailed investigation. People questioned how the Black Hawk could have missed the bright landing lights of the CRJ700. However, the viral video…

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., chosen by President Donald Trump to lead the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is gearing up to tackle one of the pharmaceutical industry’s most profitable practices: direct-to-consumer (DTC) advertising of prescription drugs. The United States and New Zealand are the only countries that permit such advertising, and Kennedy’s proposed ban has stirred a heated debate among pharmaceutical companies, media networks, and legal experts. Kennedy has been a long-time critic of pharmaceutical advertising, arguing that these ads mislead consumers, inflate drug prices, and contribute to overmedication. He has declared that on his first day in…

Visa’s board of directors is advising shareholders to reject a new policy proposal that calls for the company to address a perceived gap in health insurance coverage for individuals seeking to detransition following gender transition procedures. The proposal, titled “Gender-Based Compensation Gaps and Associated Risks,” is being spearheaded by the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) and will be presented at Visa’s annual shareholder meeting. The NLPC’s proposal suggests that Visa could face legal challenges if it does not offer insurance coverage for those seeking to reverse or halt the effects of medical interventions designed to alter their appearance to…

Republican lawmakers, led by Representatives Dan Crenshaw of Texas and Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, have put forth a new legislative proposal that aims to prevent Medicaid from covering gender transition drugs and surgeries for minors. This bill, known as the Do No Harm in Medicaid Act, seeks to modify the Social Security Act to classify gender-transition procedures—including the use of hormones, surgeries, and puberty blockers—as prohibited activities under Medicaid. This legislative move aligns with the administration of President Donald Trump, who recently reaffirmed that the official policy of the U.S. government recognizes only two sexes: male and female. *”The…

The Department of Education is taking significant steps to reshape its focus, moving away from diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The agency recently announced its plan to phase out DEI programs, following a directive from former President Donald Trump. According to an advocacy group, the department has allocated over $1 billion toward DEI initiatives since 2021. Now, this shift marks a new chapter in prioritizing education over what some see as divisive ideologies. In a statement from the department, it was emphasized that these changes align with Trump’s dedication to ending what he described as illegal discrimination and needless…

The Office of Management and Budget recently clarified the specifics of certain allocations from key legislative acts. This comes in the wake of a directive issued by President Donald Trump, which aimed to re-evaluate funding linked to the Inflation Reduction Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. A memo from Acting OMB Director Matthew Vaeth sheds light on these developments, outlining which funds might be affected by the executive order. The memo issued by Vaeth draws attention to a couple of significant sections within the Unleashing American Energy package. This comprehensive set of directives was part of Trump’s early initiatives aimed…

President Donald Trump has recently taken a significant step by granting pardons to 21 pro-life activists who were previously convicted under a federal law that has sparked much debate. This move signals a shift in how similar cases might be handled in the future. The legislation in question, known as the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, was passed over thirty years ago. According to the Department of Justice, the FACE Act aims to prevent threats, obstruction, and property damage intended to disrupt reproductive health care services. The application of this law under former President Joe Biden’s administration…

Former President Joe Biden, who identifies as Catholic, took a significant step just before his presidency ended. On January 19, he was granted “Master Mason membership” along with “full honors” at the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons in South Carolina. This move has sparked a buzz, as it goes against the Catholic Church’s canon law, which traditionally forbids Catholics from joining Freemason organizations. Involvement with the Freemasons can potentially lead to excommunication, making this decision particularly noteworthy for Biden. The ceremony’s announcement was made by the Conference of Grand Masters, with the 27th Most…
