The Epoch Times: 'Significant Portion' of Trump Indictment Based on Protected Attorney-Client Privilege: Ex-Federal Prosecutor
Former President Donald Trump has been indicted by the Department of Justice with 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information along with other charges. Legal experts have stressed that a significant part of the indictment is based on attorney-client communications which are protected under US law and will likely lead to a drawn-out legal battle over the coming months. The former president has criticized the charges, calling them political persecution. While he remains a leading candidate for the 2024 election, the indictment could have serious implications for his campaign.
Former federal prosecutor and GOP primary candidate Will Scharf claims that the DOJ has essentially “gotten into the middle” of the attorney-client privilege between Trump and his lawyer, Evan Corcoran, which he describes as “one of the core privileges guaranteed in our legal system.” Attorney-client communications are strongly protected, meaning lawyers may not disclose either oral or written communications with their clients to anyone unless granted permission. Corcoran was forced to testify and hand over records earlier this year after DOJ-appointed Special Counsel Jack Smith obtained a “crime-fraud exception,” piercing the attorney-client privilege. Scharf predicts a long legal battle lies ahead and believes the former president will go on to win the 2024 race.
Washington Free Beacon: Hunter Biden Ghosted Baby Mama During Pregnancy, Texts Show
Hunter Biden's ongoing child support case in Arkansas, which stems from his refusal to acknowledge the paternity of a daughter with Lunden Alexis Roberts, could now force the younger Biden to release sensitive financial information. Text messages entered into evidence show that Hunter was in frequent contact with Roberts during her pregnancy, but cut off contact soon after. He then removed her from the payroll of his company, Owasco P.C., and cut off her health insurance one month after their daughter's birth. Hunter initially agreed to pay Roberts $20,000 per month in child support during his father's presidential campaign, but in September 2020, he reopened the paternity case, citing financial difficulty. The case is likely to come under further scrutiny due to ongoing federal investigations into the Biden family's foreign business dealings, with some legal experts questioning why Hunter would "try to reopen this Pandora's Box" given the potential legal consequences, including contempt charges.

The Epoch Times: Examples of Counterproductive Government Policies
The government spends trillions of dollars to keep millions of people from working while Social Security is in dire need of funds. The armed forces have been struggling to meet their recruitment goals due to adopting "woke" dogmas that fail to inspire love for country, patriotism and military service. The government's "green policies" prioritize renewable energy sources over other environmental concerns, causing bird and bat deaths, incinerating natural resources, and increasing hazardous waste.

American Thinker: This is some of the garbage we can expect with indoctrinated kids and greedy lawyers
Montana youth sue their state government for failing to protect them from the effects of climate change caused by coal and oil. Supporters argue that the lawsuit is based on factual scientific data. They point out that the Earth was just as warm 1,000 years ago as it is today, and there is no correlation between our use of natural resources and temperatures. They believe the children should be educated on the benefits of using crude oil and how it has doubled life expectancy and improved the quality of life. The media should be educating and informing children, teaching them to ask questions and research, instead of scaring them.

American Thinker: Move over fentanyl: here comes xylazine
The drug "trank" is killing people by being mixed with other street drugs. Xylazine, a tranquilizer used on animals, is being added to heroin and cocaine to stretch profits. It's not an opioid like fentanyl and its effects cannot be reversed by Narcan, resulting in more deaths. The issue is escalating, and Cook County had 84 xylazine-related deaths last year. Singapore's strict death penalty for drug dealing has resulted in no real drug problem, prompting thoughts on its effectiveness.

American Thinker: A tale of two jaywalkers
