In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Bush claimed major networks, including ABC News, mobilized investigative teams to target Trump. He cited a 75-person unit at ABC News dedicated to uncovering damaging stories about Trump, which he described as “activism” rather than journalism.
Bush’s comments have sparked intense debate, with critics questioning the role of media in political campaigns. His claims highlight ongoing concerns about impartiality in journalism and its influence on public perception during elections.

The creation of a separate department will likely need congressional support, though Trump could try to establish the department within a different existing agency.

Chinese hackers ran amok in US telecom network for 18 months -- got info on over 1 million people: report
China-linked hackers reportedly managed to sneak into a US telecommunications surveillance system network for 18 months undetected and amass data on over 1 million people, with the full extent of their shenanigans still unknown.

The Xi-Hunter Biden encounter, which had not previously garnered much attention, appears to have been at a meal Hunter described in an email to his former associate Devon Archer as “pretty amazing” because his dad and China’s powerful authoritarian leader “were supposed to spend 2hrs together [but it] stretched to 7hrs. I think they are in love.”
Xi was about two months into his ambitious “Belt and Road” foreign-influence and investment campaign — and a Chinese state-backed company aligned with that vision, BHR Partners, was in the process being co-launched by Hunter.
The newly released photos, which would have been politically explosive if they were released during the now-closed House impeachment inquiry into alleged Biden family corruption, show the elder Biden shaking hands with incoming BHR Partners CEO Jonathan Li and greeting the company’s managing director Ming Xue.
Joe Biden later wrote college recommendation letters for both of Li’s children and, according to Archer, greeted Li during a subsequent speaker-phone conversation when Hunter returned to Beijing.
BHR Partners was officially registered as a company 12 days after Air Force Two landed in Beijing with the Biden family for that trip, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Biden and Obama legal shenanigans ensured these photos weren’t released before the election or the Big Guy’s pardon. America First Legal had to sue the National Archives to get these photos.

ay-Z’s cannabis brand looked timeless as soon as it launched in 2020. The billionaire rapper, legal name Shawn Carter, rolled out his Monogram line of luxury joints and cannabis flower with a photo shoot at the famous Frank Sinatra house in Palm Springs. Models elegantly smoked joints in front of mid-century pool furniture, as if the brand had been around for decades. Glowing profiles in GQ, Vogue and Vanity Fair soon followed.
Four years later, it looks like this splashy celebrity cannabis brand has already disappeared.
Monogram’s website lists nine retailers where it says its products are for sale — eight in California and one in Arizona — but none include the brand’s products on their online menus. The parent company behind Monogram, confusingly called The Parent Company, hasn’t fared any better. The conglomerate originally hit California’s market with $575 million in cash and plans to take over the entire industry, but after burning through half a billion dollars, it has merged into another company, which itself appears to be in financial trouble.
This downfall did not surprise Seth Yakatan, a cannabis investor and adviser to many California pot companies. He told SFGATE that The Parent Company was spending “mind-boggling” amounts of money during its brief time and that Jay-Z’s pricey Monogram products failed to live up to the hype.
