The Real Villain In The Hailey Bieber-Selena Gomez Feud Is Justin Bieber

Published

on

The three-month-long Hailey Bieber-Selena Gomez public catfight appears to be finally winding down after Selena took to Instagram on Friday, condemning the “hateful negativity” and death threats that have been lobbed at Hailey. But as we look back on what is likely to be the biggest celebrity feud of 2023, it seems everyone has failed to recognize the real bad guy of the story (and no, it’s not Hailey).

To understand the drama that’s ensued between the two women, you have to know the history. Pop icon Justin Bieber dated both supermodel Hailey (formerly Hailey Baldwin) and Disney Channel star Selena on and off throughout the 2010s but eventually tied the knot with Hailey in 2019. For nearly a decade, Hailey has been dubbed the “other woman” and blamed for the undoing of Selena and Justin’s relationship, despite Hailey insisting her romantic relationship with Justin never overlapped with Selena’s.

The hate for Hailey escalated after her marriage, and in April 2022, Hailey posted a TikTok video begging the trolls to stop tormenting her. Unfortunately, however, internet low-lives have made it their mission to fabricate drama between the two women, claiming, for example, that last May Selena mocked Hailey’s makeup routine in a TikTok. In reality, Selena’s video was benign; there’s no real indication she was making fun of Hailey.

Similarly, after Hailey posted a now-deleted TikTok lip-syncing to the trending sound, “I’m not saying she deserved it, but God’s timing is always right,” trolls claimed it was directed at Selena, who was reportedly “body-shamed”

New Whistleblower Report Corroborates Charges Of FBI Retaliation

Published

on

The House Judiciary Committee received a new whistleblower complaint Tuesday morning corroborating previous reports of political retaliation within the FBI.

On Friday, attorneys sent a complaint for an anonymous supervisory special agent (SSA) to the Justice Department inspector general and the department’s Office of Professional Responsibility. The complainant, who is a registered Democrat and has won awards as an agent for work against child trafficking, reports witnessing colleagues within the FBI experience political retribution. The whistleblower also claimed to have been retaliated against. The complaints were submitted to the House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government and shared with The Federalist.

According to the disclosures, the latest whistleblower “witnessed firsthand as an SSA how the FBI’s Security Division improperly suspended or revoked employees’ security clearances whose political views, medical views, or even ethnicity were questioned by Security Division leadership.”

“The outcomes of clearance investigations and adjudications were often pre-determined by the Division’s acting Deputy Assistant Director and the acting Section Chief responsible for security clearance investigations and adjudications, who often overruled line staff and even dictated the wording of documents in the clearance process,” the disclosure read.

The special agent in question was suspended last year after serving half a decade as an SSA since 2018. Protected disclosures were particularly made against Jeffrey Veltri, the acting deputy assistant director of the FBI’s Security Division, and Dena Perkins, the acting section chief for the Security Integrity and Investigations Section.

“SSA Client quickly discovered that acting

NPR Runs Cover For Biden’s Federal Election Interference

Published

on

In its latest iteration of “Republicans pounce!“, America’s ethically bankrupt media is framing Joe Biden’s use of the federal government to interfere in the 2024 election as the victim of “partisan” Republican attacks. But anyone who’s bothered to research the issue knows that’s complete nonsense.

The deceptive stunt came Sunday, when NPR’s Hansi Lo Wang published an article titled, “Republicans are turning Biden’s voter registration order into a partisan flash point.” The piece focuses on Executive Order 14019, a directive signed by Biden in March 2021 that ordered hundreds of federal agencies to interfere in state and local election administration by using taxpayer dollars to engage in voter registration and get-out-the-vote activities.

Under the order, federal departments were required to draft “strategic plan[s]” explaining how their agencies intended to fulfill Biden’s directive. The administration has routinely stonewalled efforts by good government groups to acquire these plans by slow-walking its response to federal court orders and heavily redacting any related documents it’s released. Agencies were also instructed to collaborate with so-called “nonpartisan third-party organizations” that have been “approved” by the White House to provide “voter registration services on agency premises.”

Conservatives have expressed concerns about this “Bidenbucks” order and its intent for years. But that didn’t stop Wang from dishonestly attempting to make such worries a new, unfounded phenomenon.

“Backed with no substantial evidence, GOP lawmakers and state election officials, along with right-wing activists, have launched a barrage of claims that the Biden administration is using this order to overstep the federal government’s role in

Nonprofit Sues Northwestern University Over Discriminatory Affirmative-Action Hiring Practices

Published

on

Whistleblowers from within Northwestern University’s Pritzker School of Law reported that highly qualified white men were rejected in favor of “mediocre and undistinguished women and racial minorities” in violation of federal anti-discrimination law, according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday.

The nonprofit group Faculty, Alumni, and Students Opposed to Racial Preferences (FASORP), formed “for the purpose of restoring meritocracy in academia,” is challenging the school’s “affirmative-action” hiring practices in court. Former Texas Solicitor General Jonathan F. Mitchell authored the lawsuit, which alleges Northwestern has violated several federal laws, including the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and Title IX

“Faculty hiring at American universities is a cesspool of corruption and lawlessness. For decades, left-wing faculty and administrators have been thumbing their noses at federal anti-discrimination statutes and openly discriminating on account of race and sex when appointing professors,” Mitchell wrote in the lawsuit. “This practice, known as ‘affirmative action,’ is firmly entrenched at institutions of higher learning and aggressively pushed by leftist ideologues on faculty-appointments committees and in university DEI offices. But it is prohibited by federal law, which bans universities that accept federal funds from discriminating on account of race or sex in their hiring decisions.”

Bad Actors

The suit names a variety of individual bad actors as defendants in addition to Northwestern University. These include law school Dean Hari M. Osofsky, Professors Sarah Lawksy, Janice Nadler, and Daniel Rodriguez, and law review student editors Dheven Unni and Jazmyne Denman.

The lawsuit alleges then-Dean Rodriguez created a mandate 12 years ago
