Shameless Liar Hakeem Jeffries Accuses Republicans of Pushing ‘Conspiracy Theories’ When Asked if Democrats Were Dishonest About Biden’s Health

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries spun an astounding lie while speaking to the press today.

A reporter asked Jeffries, “Given the revelations with Biden’s cancer diagnosis, and the release of the Hur recording, why were Democrats not more open to talking about President Biden’s age in 2024?”

Not only does Jeffries not answer the question, he completely ignores it.

First, he talks about thoughts and prayers for Joe Biden. Then he launches into a ridiculous rant about how cruel Republicans are spreading conspiracy theories.

To make matters worse, he then advances fake news about Republicans cutting healthcare for Americans.

Democrats and the media used to call Joe Biden’s diminished mental state a conspiracy theory. How did that work out?

You know what’s very telling about this clip? There is no mainstream media reportage on it. None. Zero. Why do you suppose that is? Could it be because the media knows that every single thing Jeffries says here is pure deflection or an outright lie?

SCOTUS: Trump Can Deport 350K Venezuelans Biden Allowed To Break The Law

The Supreme Court issued an order on Monday agreeing that the Trump administration had the constitutional authority to remove the Biden-era temporary protections for hundreds of thousands of migrants who were allowed to remain in the country under the previous administration.

The court placed a hold on a lower court order that blocked Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem from removing “Temporary Protected Status” (TPS) for Venezuelans. Only Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented. TPS permits migrants to work and live in the country if their native country is deemed unsafe.

The Supreme Court’s decision could mean some 350,000 Venezuelans can be deported.

As reported by The Federalist’s Breccan Thies, three days before President Trump took office, then DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas extended the TPS designation for Venezuelans living in the country. The extension was for 18 months. Noem then “vacated the extension and subsequently terminated TPS for Venezuelans who had registered for it in 2023,” Thies reported.

In response “National TPS Alliance, an organization representing those with TPS, and a group of Venezuelans turned around and sued the Trump administration.” The suit alleged the termination of TPS was race-based — without considering that the United States has the right to decide which foreigners are admitted into the United States.

The Trump administration argued in a subsequent motion that Mayorkas “failed, among other things, to evaluate the key statutory question: whether permitting Venezuelan and Haitian nationals to remain temporarily in the United States is ‘contrary to the national interest.’”

An Obama-appointed judge issued a nationwide injunction, and the Ninth Circuit rejected an appeal by the Trump administration. While the protections were “set to expire on April 7,” the judge, as described by the Associated Press, found that “the expiration threatened to severely disrupt the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and could cost billions in lost economic activity.”

The Trump administration contended that the ruling from the lower court amounted to judicial overreach, an issue that has plagued Trump’s first few months in office.

Biden administration unleashed billions to update electric grid without proper controls, probe finds

The Biden Energy Department blasted out billions of dollars to bolster the U.S. energy grid shortly before last fall’s election without adequate financial controls and staffing to properly protect taxpayers, an internal investigation has found. 

In October 2024, the Department of Energy awarded $7.6 billion in funding to 105 projects across the United States, in support of various grid resilience initiatives. The Grid Resilience and Innovation Partnerships Program (GRIP) had a total of $10.5 billion allocated to it from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. 

The DOE Office of Inspector General initiated an investigation to determine if the department’s Grid Deployment Office (GDO), which administered the funding for the GRIP program under the Biden administration, had adequate internal controls and resources to implement the program. 

According to the OIG’s report released Wednesday, the GDO lacked an effective internal controls system to manage risk, nor did it have staffing resources to implement the program.

“Without a robust internal controls system, GDO may not identify risks that could negatively impact the GRIP program’s outcomes,” the report said. “These impacts could include improperly reimbursed costs, fraud, waste, and undisclosed conflicts of interest.”

The lack of adequate accounting practices for taxpayer funding may extend beyond the GDO. 

Trump’s Energy Secretary Chris Wright said during a House Appropriations hearing earlier this month the Loans Program Office at the DOE had issued about $40 billion in loans for energy projects over the last 15 years. But in the last 76 days of the Biden administration, that number jumped to $100 billion. Wright said that the rushed loan agreements lacked clauses traditionally required by the DOE.

Script Flipped: Shock Cancer Diagnosis Wipes Biden Autopen-Presidency From Headlines

Former President Biden’s shock cancer diagnosis strains credulity, while conveniently wiping the headlines over the fact that he was essentially a vegetable during his presidency – begging the obvious question of ‘who was actually in charge?’

A few weeks ago, many in the mainstream media began framing a half-assed mea culpa over their coverage of Biden’s obvious mental decline. We suspect they knew that Axios would be dropping the Biden-Hur tape – a recording of Joe Biden’s October 2023 interview with special counsel Robert Hur over his mishandling of classified information. Biden couldn’t remember key details, such as when his son Beau died, when he left office as vice president, what year Donald Trump was elected, and why he had classified documents in his possession that he shouldn’t have had.

The obvious conclusion is that Biden wasn’t actually running the country, and his aides were using the ‘autopen’ to execute on official actions, raising questions over the legality of executive actions taken during the last administration.

What Joe Biden’s Cancer Can (And Should) Teach Us About The Media

Last night the news broke that former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer, which has already metastasized to his bones.

The conversation has gone in two predictable directions.

On the one hand you have the predictable “out pouring of support” from fans of Team Blue, “liberal” journalists and celebrities.

On the other hand you have cynical commentary from Team Red, questioning the timing of the announcement and wondering how someone with such a high profile and (presumably) first class medical care could have cancer missed until such a late stage.

A third, quieter, option is to suggest a connection between this cancer and the Covid “vaccine”.

(A possibility I reject out of hand, because I don’t believe there is any chance at all he was really given the experimental shot.)

But all of these conversations miss the point.

The question is not “what caused Biden’s cancer?” or “why did they cover up Biden’s cancer?” it’s “why are they telling us Biden has cancer?”

Remember, the same media reporting “Biden has cancer” spent months reporting “Biden doesn’t have dementia” and “Biden’s as sharp as ever”, despite plain evidence to the contrary.

They lied. Over and and over again, for years. 

They quite literally told you to disregard the evidence of your eyes and ears.

Until they stopped, and suddenly Joe Biden’s “mental decline” was no longer a conspiracy theory, but totally real and the reason to put Kamala Harris on the ballot.

Joe Biden’s mental acuity did not change, all that changed was the requirement of the narrative.

Media reportage has no correlation with the truth.

Doctors say it’s ‘inconceivable’ Biden’s cancer went undetected by his medical team — as Trump Jr. questions if diagnosis is ‘cover-up’

Several doctors have said it’s “inconceivable” that former President Joe Biden’s aggressive form of prostate cancer went undetected by his medical team — as first son Don Trump Jr. even questioned whether the health diagnosis was part of a “cover-up.”

The 82-year-old former president was diagnosed Friday after doctors found a “small nodule” on his prostate during a medical exam earlier this month — with the cancer cells having spread to the bone, his spokesman revealed Sunday.

His team said the cancer had been graded a Gleason score of 9, suggesting his form was among the most aggressive.

A handful of medical experts were quick to question how the former president could be diagnosed at such a late stage — especially given that prostate cancer can be detected early with routine bloodwork, which is recommended for men over the age of 50.

“It is inconceivable that this was not being followed before he left the Presidency,” Dr. Howard Formman said in a post on X.

“Gleason grade 9 would have had an elevated PSA level for some time before this diagnosis. And he must have had a PSA test numerous times before. This is odd,” he added. “I wish him well and hope he has an opportunity for maximizing his quality of life.”

Dr. Steven Quay flagged similar concerns, saying Biden’s type of cancer is the easiest to diagnose when it first starts and progresses.

‘For Posterity’s Sake’: Why the Biden-Hur Tapes is a Virtual Racketeering Indictment

“For posterity’s sake.” Those words from President Joe Biden sum up the crushing impact of the leaked audiotapes from the interview between then-President Joe Biden and Special Counsel Robert Hur. Not only did they remove any serious doubt over Biden committing the federal crimes charged against President Donald Trump, but they also constituted what is akin to a political racketeering indictment against much of the Washington establishment.

The interview from Oct. 8-9, 2023, has long been sought by Congress, but was kept under wraps by the government even as Biden campaigned for a second term.

Many of us balked at Hur’s conclusion that no charges were appropriate despite the fact that the President removed classified material for decades, stored it in grossly negligent ways, and moved it around to unsecure locations, including his garage in Delaware.

Given President Donald Trump’s indictment for the same offenses, it was hard to imagine how the Special Counsel could not recommend the same criminal charges (presumably after he left office).

Instead, Hur declared it would have been hard to get a jury to convict Biden because he was “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”

It appears that Trump, on the other hand, was presumptively not sympathetic or well-meaning and possessed a good memory for prosecution.

The contrast was glaring and only reinforced the view of many citizens that there are two tracks for justice in Washington.

Soon after the report’s release, President Biden gave an irate press conference in which he lied about the findings of his culpability and lashed out at any suggestion that he had gapped or stumbled in the interview.

For example, when reporters raised how Biden forgot when his son Beau died, Biden angrily responded, “How in the hell dare he raise that?” Frankly, when I was asked the question I thought to myself it wasn’t any of their damn business.”

However, it was not Hur but Biden himself who raised the death of his son, and he forgot a wide array of dates, including when he served in office.

Rep. James Comer Says STAFFERS Behind Biden’s Autopen Scandal When He was “Clearly in Mental Decline” Have Been IDENTIFIED — Warns Subpoenas Are Coming

The autopen scandal just erupted into a full-blown constitutional crisis.

House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) revealed in a bombshell interview with Jason Chaffetz that his committee has identified the shadowy White House staffers responsible for wielding President Joe Biden’s infamous autopen during a period when Biden was “clearly in mental decline.”

The autopen scandal first erupted in March when President Trump, in a fiery late-night Truth Social post, declared Joe Biden’s autopen pardons “VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT.”

Trump revealed that Biden, whom he branded “the Worst President in the History of our Country,” did not personally sign the pardons, nor was he even aware of them.

“Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them!” Trump wrote.

“The necessary Pardoning Documents were not explained to, or approved by, Biden. He knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed a crime.”

By April, President Trump escalated his calls for accountability, demanding that the person or persons operating Biden’s autopen be JAILED.

 “Why did the Auto Pen give Schiff a Pardon? Biden knew nothing about it. Who operated the Auto Pen? That is the biggest question being asked in D.C. They almost destroyed our Country. They should all be in jail!!!” Trump said on Truth Social.

On Saturday, Trump reacted to newly released audio from Special Counsel Robert Hur’s 2023 interview with Biden and labeled the autopen scandal a “major part” of the “real crime.”

“Whoever had control of the ‘AUTOPEN’ is looking to be a bigger and bigger scandal by the moment. It is a major part of the real crime, THAT THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2020 WAS RIGGED AND STOLEN!”

COVER-UP: Urologist Says Joe Biden Likely Knew He Had Prostate Cancer Going Back 5-10 Years

Urologist Dr. Shusterman on Sunday evening said it is “unheard of” for someone with Joe Biden’s Cadillac healthcare to not know he had prostate cancer before it metastasized and spread to his body.

On Sunday, it was reported that 82-year-old Joe Biden was diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer.

According to Biden’s spox, the former president was diagnosed with prostate cancer last Friday with the cancer cells spreading to his bones.

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said.

“While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management,” the statement said.

Medical professionals are sounding the alarm and saying there is no way Joe Biden was diagnosed with Gleason 9 and metastasis as his initial diagnosis.

Dr. Shusterman appeared on NewsNation on Sunday evening following Biden’s cancer announcement and he said the former president likely knew he had prostate cancer for the last 5-10 years.

Biden likely knew he had cancer while he was running for president in 2020 and lied about his health.

It appears White House physician Dr. O’Connor also repeatedly lied about Joe Biden’s health.

“It’s very unlikely that someone could get annual checkups and not notice,” Dr. Shusterman said.

“He is a former president, had intensive state of the art care.. It’s unusual to hear that someone has prostate cancer when they’re annually being followed up. The fact that we find it at a Gleason 9 is unheard of,” he said.

“Most likely had it for a long time.. Aggressive prostate cancer grows over a long period of time. Five to ten years.. in the most aggressive form,” the doctor said.

“Definitely evidence that he knew about this for a while,” he added.

Biden Slipped Up and Said That He Had Cancer While Telling a Story in 2022

Joe Biden slipped up and blurted out that he had cancer while telling a story back in 2022.

On May 18, it was revealed that Biden has an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has already metastasized to the bone.

While it was released as though the cancer had just been discovered, many are wondering how this could have suddenly appeared at stage nine.

Shortly after the announcement, a clip of him speaking in 2022 with a seeming admission of already being diagnosed with cancer went viral.

Biden was delivering a speech on climate change from the site of the former Brayton Point Power Station in Somerset, Massachusetts. The coal-fired power plant had been demolished and replaced with a renewable energy hub.

“That’s why I and so damn many other people I grew up with have cancer,” Biden says, after discussing oil slicks on his car windshield when he was younger.

As The Gateway Pundit also reported, the former president’s brother, Frank Biden, told CBS News that he wants Biden back to “enjoy whatever time we have left” in 2024 after he dropped out of the presidential race.

The timing of the diagnosis announcement, just days after the release of the Hur tapes, has raised questions about the political motivations behind the health disclosure. It has already raised questions about transparency regarding his health while he was in the White House and running for a second term.
