2022/08/26

After being ordered to do so, the US Department of Justice released the affidavit used to justify the raid on former President Donald Trump’s Florida home. But it provided little information, as virtually all of the 30+ pages were redacted. But the raid on Mar-A-Lago is just the latest example of politicized investigations and actions the FBI has undertaken since Trump became the GOP nominee for President. There are now two different groups of whistleblowers inside the FBI alleging that top agency

NC Congressman Dan Bishop says the FBI has become a political weapon and needs to be dismantled in its current form. The District 9 Republican cites the Russia-collusion hoax, lies to FISA courts to illegally obtain warrants, the raid on Mar-A-Lago, the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story, and the different standards as applied to Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump. Bishop says the FBI culture "has gone off the rails." Bishop, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, says if the GOP wins

After Tuesday's primary election in Florida, NBC News reports "few Democratic insiders and political observers" give their party's nominees a chance of winning in November. "More than 20 Democratic consultants, lawmakers and organizers in the state" spoke to NBC news to express their pessimism. "National Democrats have signaled they won't invest in Florida as heavily as in the past. The state's growing Hispanic electorate has been shifting rightward since 2018.

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson has a book coming out in a few weeks. Two of his most adversarial newsrooms in Raleigh got advance copies, and highlighted a passage: "In those grades, we don't need to be teaching social studies," he writes. "We don't need to be teaching science. We surely don't need to be talking about equity and justice." Outrage ensued. The NC Democratic Party highlighted an editorial from the McClatchy newspaper chain that mocked Robinson's idea as "wacky." Robinson's

President Joe Biden reportedly intends to wipe out $10,000 of student loan debt for people earning less than $125,000. But doing so won't silence the calls from his leftwing activist base that has been demanding he cancel $50,000 of their debt. It also won't endear him to the majority of Americans who don't have a college degree or student loan debt. Furthermore, debt cancelation would wipe out the projected savings from the recently-passed Inflation Reduction Act, neutering the Democrats' messaging

President Joe Biden is reportedly going to announce a massive expansion in federal executive power, fulfilling a campaign promise to his Democrat base to pay off a portion of their college student loan debt. He is also expected to extend the current freeze on repayments and interest accrual on the debts - which were set to expire at the end of the month. It's the culmination of a long-running leftist campaign to cancel debt (which is mostly concentrated among wealthier Americans). However, the cost

Speaker Moore on NC Supreme Court: "They have no shame"

North Carolina Speaker of the House Tim Moore says he's looking at how best to respond to the NC Supreme Court ruling that two voter-approved constitutional amendments can be nullified because they were put on a ballot by a legislature that was elected under gerrymandered maps. Speaker Moore (R-Cleveland) said the ruling ignores all precedent and smacks of partisan politics. "They ought to not be wearing black robes," Moore said. "They should be wearing blue robes." Meanwhile, a grand jury in Wake

The Charlotte City Council adopted a new "Unified Development Ordinance" (or UDO) that encompasses all zoning and building rules. The nearly-700 page document had drawn opposition because it eliminated the default zoning rule that prevented multi-family projects from being built in neighborhoods with single-family homes. The measure passed 6-4, amid concerns that it would prompt greater gentrification in older, minority-owned neighborhoods on the East and West side of the Queen City. Wealthier

As the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announce new guidelines (that are remarkably similar to the guidelines "COVID deniers" proposed), there needs to be a real accounting of mistakes that were made. The purpose is not to impugn, but to ensure the mistakes are never made again. Get exclusive content here!: https://thepetekalinershow.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The parent company of WRAL-TV says four Democrats on the North Carolina Supreme tossing out voter-approved constitutional amendments is what democracy looks like. In an anonymous editorial, Capitol Broadcasting Company (which owns WRAL) says the lawmakers never should have been able to ask voters to approve the measure because the legislature was elected under maps that were deemed to be illegal gerrymanders. But the standard laid out by the editorial (as well as the four NC Supreme Court judges)

In what even the McClatchy newspaper called a ""muddled" and "fuzzy" ruling, the four Democrats on the North Carolina Supreme Court said voters never should have been able to approve constitutional amendments adopting Voter ID and reducing the state income tax from 10% to 7%. The partisan-line vote sent the lawsuit back to a lower court with an instruction to apply a newly-crafted three-prong test. One of those tests requires judges guess how hypothetical lawmakers might vote on a particular

The four Democrat lawyers on the North Carolina Supreme Court just issued a ruling that would cancel recent voter-approved changes to the state constitution. Leftist groups sued over amendments that instituted voter ID and setting the state income tax rate at 7%. Voters approved other amendments, but the leftwing groups did not challenge those. The Democrat judges agreed with the Democrat plaintiffs that the legislature didn't have the authority to send the topics to voters to decide because the

Big Tech announces renewal of election censorship tools

Big Tech companies are rolling out their censorship tools ahead of the US midterm elections - promising to suppress content that they deem to be "misinformation." Twitter and Meta (which owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp) are pledging to implement new and existing mechanisms to block stories, posts, pictures, memes, and comments that they deem to be false. These same mechanisms were implemented ahead of the 2020 presidential race to suppress the spread of the story of Hunter Biden's laptop. But

The US Department of Justice is being ordered by a federal judge to propose redactions to the affidavit used to get a search warrant on former President Donald Trump's home in Florida. The DOJ has one week to black out the parts of the document that the government says will compromise its investigation and expose witness identities. As the DOJ fights release of the affidavit, anonymous leakers from inside the agency are attempting to craft a narrative. While the leaks have helped paint a picture, it

Charlotte-Mecklenburg's animal shelter needs help, as the number of dogs and cats has pushed the facility to capacity. Melissa Knicely with CMPD says they always see an increase in intakes during the summer. But as more people move to the Charlotte area, they're seeing more animals arrive at the shelter than in past years. Knicely is asking people to volunteer, adopt a pet, foster an animal, or take a pet home for a temporary "staycation" - just to get the animal out of the kennel for a few
