Call..

 
The Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi privately told President Joe Biden in a recent conversation that polling shows that the president cannot defeat Donald Trump and that Biden could destroy Democrats’ chances of winning the House in November if he continues seeking a second term, according to four sources briefed on the call.

The president responded by pushing back, telling Pelosi he has seen polls that indicate he can win, one source said.
Comment:
He insisted to run... Anything to improve the lives of people? High cost food?

Fraud..

 


Guo Wengui, a self-exiled Chinese business tycoon whose criticism of the Communist Party won him legions of online followers was convicted by a U.S. jury engaging in a massive multiyear fraud that ripped off some of his most devoted fans.
Guo, who left China in 2014 during an anticorruption crackdown that ensnared people close to him.
Chinese authorities accused him of rape, kidnapping, bribery and other crimes, but Guo said those allegations were false and designed to punish him for publicly revealing corruption as he criticized leading figures in the Communist Party.  
Prosecutors say hundreds of thousands of people were convinced to invest more than $1 billion in entities Guo controlled. Among those businesses and organizations was Guo’s media company, GTV Media Group Inc., and his so-called Himalaya Farm Alliance and the Himalaya Exchange.

The former federal prosecutor who oversaw more than 200 cases related to protests of former President Trump’s 2017 inauguration has been accused of withholding evidence, according to an attorney disciplinary claim.
Jennifer Kerkhoff Muyskens, formerly of the D.C. district attorney’s office, allegedly attempted to hide from the court that Project Veritas was the source of the video evidence by removing references to the group and editing out some clips, which it argued deprived the defendants of a complete legal defense.  
Muyskens’s charges against more than 100 defendants were eventually dropped after some early trials ended in acquittals        [The Hill ]

Torch...

 


Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) is calling on President Joe Biden to “pass the torch” and step aside from the 2024 presidential race.

Schiff, who is expected to become California’s next senator, is a former House Intelligence Committee chair. He is also a close ally of former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has been privately fielding caucus concerns about Biden.

“While the choice to withdraw from the campaign is President Biden’s alone, I believe it is time for him to pass the torch,” Schiff said in a statement, first reported by the Los Angeles Times.
