Jen Psaki says Biden visits Delaware so often because his son and former wife are buried there

the Senate will vote to break the GOP filibuster on the voting rights legislation 6.30 pm E.T.

“After that fails, Schumer may move to gut the Senate filibuster, and would need 50 votes to change the rules, something he does not have,”

Some features of the DEM bill:

- allows voting by mail for any reason

- establishes a national standard for forms needed for any state that requires voter ID

- makes election day a national holiday

- require states to keep voting lines to 30 minutes or less

- restore federal voting rights to people w felony convictions after they have been released from prison

- require online voter registration and automatic registration at motor vehicle agencies

- allow "election day" voter registration at polling places

- Election records and paper ballots would be subject to new requirements and regulations to keep election materials from being used in partisan ballot reviews like the one in Maricopa County, Arizona, after the 2020 election

Quite a bit more

Before sundown happens and he starts sundowning.

It's a real thing

There's a reason we rarely see him in public at night.

I'm with ZS, why would he have it at four and not prime time? They probably can't keep him awake that long. The drugs star to wear off.

Nothing is unplanned with politicians and their beetle-like handlers. That time was chosen for strategy.

Isn’t Shumer setting the vote on the voting rights bill at 6:30 Eastern tonight? Almost sounds like this may be coordinated.

Can’t wait to hear the lecture on how racist I am again for not supporting the voting rights bill.

Does sound a bit coordinated.

Sen Mark Kelly (D, Arizona) has now stated he will support doing away with the existing Senate filibuster procedure for voting rights legislation

Manchin has said he doesn’t see the point forcing a vote that is destined to fail.

"I would like to see us stay on the bill. There's no use to try to bring this to finality by having a vote that's going to fail tonight,"

Both Manchin and Sinema say they support the DEM voting law package, but they are unwilling to change the Senate rules to muscle it through that chamber over Republican objections

McConnell derided the “fake hysteria” from Democrats over the states’ new voting laws and called the pending bill a sprawling federal takeover of election systems. He said doing away with filibuster rules would “break the Senate.”

Secret Service ‘hid’ info on Hunter Biden travels, GOP senators claim

https://nypost.com/2022/01/19/...r-biden-travel-info/

The Secret Service improperly redacted hundreds of pages of records related to Hunter Biden’s overseas travel — and apparently withheld information about trips to China, Russia and other countries, two leading Republican senators claim.

In a Tuesday letter to Secret Service Director James Murray, Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) alleged the agency “hid names and other information contained in email conversations regarding Hunter Biden without any proper legal justification.”

The senators specifically noted that documents turned over at their request “do not show whether [Secret Service] personnel or Hunter Biden traveled to Kazakhstan in May or June 2014” during a trip to Paris.

Biden — whose father, President Biden, was vice president at the time — decided to ditch his Secret Service bodyguards before flying to Kazakhstan to pursue a deal on behalf of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, the Washington Examiner reported last year.

Hunter Biden reportedly planned to meet with then-Kazakhstan Prime Minister Karim Massimov, who was arrested on treason charges Saturday following his ouster as head of the country’s counterintelligence and anti-terror agency.

In 2015, Joe and Hunter Biden were apparently photographed posing with Massimov and Kazakhstani oligarch Kenes Rakishev during a gathering at the Cafe Milano restaurant in Washington, DC.

Critics have accused the younger Biden of influence-peddling and a report last year said the Justice Department was investigating a consulting firm linked to Hunter over its work for Bursima, which paid him as much as $1 million a year.

In 2020, Hunter Biden disclosed that he was under investigation for possible tax fraud, reportedly involving his business dealings in China and other foreign countries.

In Tuesday’s letter, first reported by the Examiner, Grassley and Johnson expressed “serious concerns” over the “extensive Freedom of Information Act redactions, which do not apply to Congress” in the 259 pages they received from the Secret Service.

“These inappropriate redactions impede our offices’ ability to understand the full scope of the interactions between Hunter Biden, his associates, and the USSS,” they wrote.


The lawmakers demanded that the Secret Service provide complete, unredacted copies of the documents it turned over and explain why it didn’t produce records from 2010, 2011 and 2013.

The senators said they wanted a response “as soon as possible” and set a Jan. 26 deadline.

The Secret Service didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Grassley and Johnson have been investigating Hunter Biden’s overseas business dealings and in 2020 released a report that said his job with Burisma created a “potential conflict of interest” for his dad, who was deeply involved in US policy toward Ukraine.

That report also alleged Hunter Biden sent “thousands of dollars” to people who appeared linked to “an Eastern European prostitution or human trafficking ring.”

Hunter Biden, now pursuing a controversial career as a self-taught painter, also owned a 10 percent stake in a Chinese investment firm known as BHR Partners, but his lawyer last month told the New York Times that he “no longer holds any interest” in it.

The White House has refused to say who bought Hunter Biden’s share in the company or how much he was paid for it.

Speech is a stuttering dumpster fire thus far.

Biden is back to whispering into the mic

now it is all Trump's fault

I would not be surprised if the moron started singing "Afternoon Delight" in Elmer Fudd's voice at one of these things...
