Secret Service says it doesn’t have Hunter Biden emails from some years, his laptop says otherwise

Just the News found on laptop seized by FBI dozens of emails in which presidential son coordinated travel, corresponded with agents on his protective detail

Days ahead of his trip to Mexico in spring 2011, Hunter Biden got an email from a Secret Service agent coordinating his protection detail.

“Hunter, when you have some free time, I would like to discuss the Monterrey trip with you,” Secret Service agent Yvonne DiCristoforo wrote then-Vice President Joe Biden’s son on April 28, 2011.

"I have some specific information to provide you that we received from our Mexico City office,” she added. “I know you are out of the office this evening, but if you could contact me at your convenience, I would appreciate it."

Secret Service records show Hunter Biden, in fact, took the trip with agents protecting him between May 15 to May 17, 2011.

The email, contained on a Hunter Biden laptop now in FBI custody and reviewed by Just the News, may not seem that significant at first blush. But it has significant meaning to Senate investigators.

Why? Because the Secret Service, after years of delay, told GOP Sens. Chuck Grassley, Iowa, and Ron Johnson, Wisconsin, last month the agency has been unable to locate any emails or other records showing its agents coordinating travel for Hunter Biden.

"The Secret Service worked extensively with your committees, and agreed to search parameters provided by your office as to identify communications regarding Mr. Biden's travel," Secret Service Director James M. Murray wrote the senators on Feb. 14.

"These search parameters did not yield communications for the years 2010, 2011, or 2013," Murray added.

In fact, Just the News found about five dozen emails between Hunter Biden and his Secret Service handlers on the FBI-seized laptop for those same years, as well as other ones in other years that Senate investigators said they had not...

You paying more (and more) at the pump just means Biden gets one step closer to his anti-oil agenda. Don’t think he isn’t happy about it.

Gas prices in the United States hit a new all-time high under President Joe Biden’s watch on Tuesday, clocking in at an average of $4.17 per gallon, surpassing the previous record of $4.11 set in 2008.

A friend told me he recently saw prices jump 50 cents from the time he drove to work to the time he drove home. A gas station in Florida I stopped at last month had two “I did that” stickers on it. After someone had apparently tried to rip them off, someone else took a blue ballpoint pen and scrawled “FJB” on the front of the gas pump. Similar stickers have popped up in growing numbers all around the country.

It’s obvious to everyone paying attention (except for Biden and his corporate media comms shop… but that’s redundant) that the Democrat administration’s policies, not just the Russians, are to blame for rising prices at the pump. The third week of February, before the Russian invasion of Ukraine started, the average price of U.S. gas was $3.53 per gallon, compared with $2.38 the week Biden took office: a $1.15 difference. (That fact hasn’t stopped Press Secretary Jen Psaki from lying through her teeth to blame the spike entirely on Russia.)

But, bumbling though they are, the Biden administration did not just achieve rising gas prices through accidents and incompetence. Your pain at the pump isn’t just unforeseen collateral damage of the White House’s policies — it’s a very intentional result of it.

That’s right: Biden wants staggering gas prices to force you from being able to drive where you want, when you want, as much as you want to. It’s all a part of his green energy agenda, which panders to radicals on the far-left side of Biden’s ever-further-left party.

Russia loses a FOURTH general and seven SWAT fighters from elite unit under Putin's direct control - as top Russian airman warns scale of losses will 'horrify' the nation when they learn the truth

Major-General Oleg Mityaev, 47, commander of Russia's 150th motorised rifle division, reportedly killed
Kyiv claims Mityaev died fighting near the city of Mariupol and released a photo purporting to show his body
Moscow has not confirmed the death, but if true it would be the fourth general and 13th officer Russia has lost
Seven members of an elite SWAT squad under Vladimir Putin's direct control were also revealed to have died

Russia has lost another of its generals in the war in Ukraine, Kyiv has said, along with seven members of an elite force under Vladimir Putin's direct command as Ukraine inflicts punishing losses on Moscow's war machine.

Major-General Oleg Mityaev, 47, commander of the army's 150th motorised rifle division, died fighting around the besieged city of Mariupol, Ukraine's interior ministry said late Tuesday as officials released a photo of what they claimed was his corpse on the battlefield.

It marks the fourth Russian general that Ukraine claims to have taken out and the 13th officer overall, as Putin's invading forces suffer heavy losses at the hands of dogged Ukrainian defenders.

Seven elite SWAT fighters from the feared Dzerzhinsky Division of Russia's national guard were also revealed to have died in the fighting.

A mourning picture was released in Russia showing the photographs of six elite 'maroon beret' special forces fighters from the Vityaz Special Purpose Centre of the Dzerzhinsky Division, named after Soviet secret police founder Felix Dzerzhinsky. It was later revealed that a seventh had been slain.

Meanwhile respected test pilot Captain Alexander Garnaev quit a number of positions over the 'completely incomprehensible' war. 'Sooner or later society will know the final number of losses [and] will be horrified,' he added.

A Hero of Russia and Honoured Test Pilot, he launched a scathing attack on the way Ukrainian cities have been 'bombed and crushed with tanks'.

‘Un-American Express’: Anti-Woke Group Takes Aim at Credit Card Company’s Race-Based Hiring

Color Us United will spend $500,000 targeting company's 'racial equity' policies

An anti-woke activist group launched a $500,000 campaign against "antiracism" programs at American Express, calling the company's so-called racial equity efforts "antithetical" to American values.

Color Us United, a nonprofit that advocates for a "race-blind America," on Monday announced the public relations effort to expose the credit card company's "harmful woke policies"—including hiring and promoting employees based on race and instituting critical race theory training that teaches employees that "capitalism is racist." The group is calling on American Express to rescind the "un-American" policies, such as giving bonuses to managers who hire minorities, and plans to place television and radio advertisements, along with a social media campaign and petition, to draw attention to its racist practices.

Corporate giants in recent years have pushed progressive race and gender ideology through hiring practices and mandatory training sessions, prompting backlash over the racially discriminatory policies. Coca-Cola, for example, came under fire in April 2021 for implementing a racial quota for hiring outside legal counsel, the Washington Free Beacon reported at the time.

Following a summer of riots and Black Lives Matter protests in 2020, American Express created an "Anti-Racism Initiative" and hired a consultant to conduct training sessions on privilege and race for employees, Manhattan Institute senior fellow and Color Us United board member Christopher Rufo reported last year in the New York Post. Among other exercises, employees were asked to determine their own privilege by analyzing factors such as race, sexual orientation, faith, and citizenship. The corporation, which made $42.2 billion in profits last year, also invited a speaker to discuss the inherent racism of a capitalist economy.

Several past and present employees told the Daily Mail last year that the company's top leadership discriminates against white employees during its hiring process and when considering workers for promotions. One employee said it would be "very rare" for a white man to be tapped for a senior leadership position.

"How can a company like American Express claim the ‘American' part of its name if it consistently drives policies that are incredibly un-American—like promoting the idea that ‘capitalism is racist' and offering bonuses for people to hire by race?" Kenny Xu, president of Color Us United, said in a statement. "Our choice to brand the company Un-American Express is designed to be a wake-up call to the company: Most Americans oppose politics and divisive worldviews in the...
