Two Chinese businessmen with ties to Hunter Biden’s company met with Joe Biden at the White House and followed up with the VP’s son days later with a fawning email and invitation, records reveal.
The meeting is the fifteenth to be uncovered between Joe and businessmen linked to Hunter.
Executives for Chinese energy company Wanxiang secured a meeting with the vice president in the West Wing in July 2014 with just one day’s notice, according to White House visitor logs.

A new Lancet study suggests that monkeypox could be a sexually transmitted disease. Researchers analysed a 39-year-old male patient who presented typical symptoms of the disease, including a fever and lesions on the skin.
Imagine just for a moment that Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government put as much time, effort and money into tackling gun crime as they do picking political fights with legal gun owners.

President Putin is desperately redeploying thousands of Russian troops to southern Ukraine to stave off a humiliating defeat, moving troops from the Donbas to bolster a force that has been split precariously across two banks of the wide Dnipro river.
The reinforcements bring the total Russian force in the area to more than 25,000 troops, a Ukrainian reconnaissance and intelligence team told The Times, adding that nine Russian battle groups, each between 500 and 800 men, had been moved there from Donbas and Crimea.

The Guardian keeps exaggerating the threat of online extremism
The late, great George Carlin has a legendary bit about ‘Airline Announcements’, a brilliant deconstruction of the absurdity and imprecision of modern language. “Please check around your immediate seating area for any personal belongings you might have brought on board”, he drawls, imitating the lifeless delivery of a flight attendant before cocking his head to the side in chummy defiance. “Well”, he winks. “I might have brought my arrowhead collection. I didn’t… so I’m not going to look for it! I’m going to look for things I brought. It would seem to enhance the likelihood of my finding something, wouldn’t you say?”
The ‘temporary’ ban will last until a government-tabled permanent freeze on handguns is passed by parliament and comes into effect.

Hundreds of artefacts from submarine U534 have been unearthed, offering clues into the Germans’ activities in the Second World War
Historians in Birkenhead are hoping to uncover the mystery of why the U-boat U534 disobeyed orders to flee Germany in the dying days of the Second World War after unsealing hundreds of objects from the boat for the first time in 80 years.
They have opened dozens of boxes of artefacts found aboard the submarine, which is believed to have been scuttled by its crew after coming under attack from British aircraft off the coast of Denmark.
There are various theories as to what U534 was doing, including that it may have been carrying top-secret torpedo technology to Japan or even the US as part of a defection plan.
Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland’s support for Canada providing Europe with liquid natural gas (LNG) to help it cope with looming fuel shortages as Russian President Vladimir Putin restricts gas exports to the continent is a great idea.
North Korea, despite a UN Security Council ban on its ballistic missile tests, continued to develop its nuclear and missile programs in 2021, according to a new UN report. In January 2022 alone, North Korea launched a record 11 missiles, including two hypersonic missiles and the first firing since 2017 of a Hwasong-12 mobile intermediate-range ballistic missile which is within reach of US territory with its estimated range of 4,500 kilometers. In 2017, North Korea tested the Hwasong-15, which has an estimated range of 8,500-13,000 kilometers.
Both US and South Korean officials expressed concern that the Hwasong-12 test indicated that North Korea would resume testing of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) and nuclear weapons.
Blackburn asked Wray whether he thinks the content derived from Hunter’s laptop, reportedly part of the federal investigation, is “Russian disinformation.”
Wray replied: “You’re asking about an ongoing investigation that I expect our folks to pursue aggressively and I just can’t comment on.”
When asked whether the FBI has the laptop in its possession, Wray said, “Again, I can’t discuss that, an ongoing investigation.”
The ex-bureaucrats charged in the alleged theft of $11 million in Ontario COVID-19 relief funds have spent more than $1.1 million on their legal defence — and now seek an additional $1.4 million.
That’s according to documents filed Tuesday with the Ontario Superior Court by Crown prosecutors who want to limit Sanjay and Shalini Madan from gaining further access to their assets.
The Madans, a married Toronto couple, were fired from their computer specialist jobs at Queen’s Park in 2020 after an alleged fraud of pandemic aid.
On Thursday, FBI Director Christopher Wray said during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that payments given to Hunter Biden from China and other countries could be considered a “malign foreign influence” campaign. On Thursday night, all three evening network broadcasts ignored this admission from the FBI Director. Only Fox News Channel’s Special Report covered Wray’s comments.
The first bus of migrants sent from Texas by Governor Greg Abbott arrived in New York City on Friday morning.
The group was dropped off at Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan after making the almost 2,000-mile trip from the border in footage captured by Fox News.
A group of charity workers and volunteers greeted the roughly 50 migrants, who were mostly men, before they ventured into the city.
