On Thursday, thousands of photographs from Hunter Biden’s laptop were made accessible to the public via a newly launched website.

Garrett Ziegler, a former Trump White House aide and founder of the nonprofit organization Marco Polo, created a website containing nearly 10,000 photos capturing moments from 2008 to 2019.

Why weren’t these photos released sooner, you ask? Well, according to Zeigler, the process took several months to finalize in order to make the photos suitable for public release.

“It’s taken us a couple of months to, one, go through the photos, about 10,000 of them, and redact the genitalia on the photos,” Ziegler told Fox New Digital.

“The number one thing we’re about… is truth and transparency,” he said. “If the American people want to know what their first family is like, they’re going to get it. And we’re not going to be taking out photos that paint the Bidens in a good light.”

Ziegler also mentioned that certain photos containing sensitive personal information, such as social security numbers, banking details, and credit card numbers, were appropriately redacted. Moreover, multiple nude photos of Hallie Biden, who is both Hunter Biden’s former lover and the late Beau Biden’s widow, were also redacted.

“Of the many photos found on the laptop, Ziegler provided Fox News Digital with two never-before-seen photos from the laptop. One photo showed Hunter Biden cozied up to his then-lover Zoe Kestan in 2018,” reports Fox News. “The other image – featuring an array of drugs and a condom wrapper sitting on a table – was from a text message conversation Hunter had with Hallie Biden – the widow of Beau Biden and former lover of Hunter Biden – the same year.”

The photos from the laptop have also been screened for “news value,” and images that aren’t of public interest aren’t included on the site.

“There are, for example, screenshots of Candy Crush games where we are fairly confident in saying there’s absolutely no news value to those,” Ziegler explained. “So it’s going to be, I would say, 98% of the photos on the device, around 10,000 in total, although it’ll be slightly less than that.”

“It’s going to be a completely authentic recounting of the photos on the device,” he added. However, he also promised there would be no depiction of genitalia on the website. He emphasized that the photo project, which will present the images in chronological order, encompasses a wide range of moments from the first family’s life and includes a diverse selection of photos.

According to Ziegler, the laptop contains evidence of foreign collusion, money laundering, and sex crimes involving Hunter Biden and multiple women, including Hunter’s underage niece. Ziegler notes that the mainstream media has refused to expose the truth, despite having access to the laptop for almost a year.

The Weaponization of the FBI: the Tip of the Iceberg

By some miracle, Republicans managed to time the news cycle correctly last week. The Durham report was released, excoriating the FBI’s handling of pretty much everything since Former FBI Director Robert Muller. And, the House Judiciary Committee held additional whistleblower hearings. Things could hardly look worse for the FBI — and, the once venerable institution deserves the scorn and opprobrium being heaped on it by the bucket full.

What exists now, barely more than a year out from my retirement, is unrecognizable.

It’s deeply saddening, to watch an institution designed to ferret out and prosecute the enemies of the Constitution being infiltrated, compromised, and consumed by the very ideologies it was created to combat. This isn’t something to be celebrated or trivialized by silly slogans like, “the FBI should be Control-Alt-Deleted.” Unfortunately, conservative media is all too happy to propagate such fatuousness. Soundbites rule over substance.

The media industrial complex is popularizing the same spirit of demagoguery that got us into this mess in the first place. It’s so easy to fall into this trap, especially when the enemy is within the gates. The loudest voices aren’t necessarily right.

Our country is in peril, perhaps like never before. The FBI ethos has been eroded, like a once proud marble edifice pitted, cracked, and broken by the onslaught of weather and time. And, just like the processes that reduced ancient structures to rubble, a process has been at work to deconstruct our civil society and our institutions.

The problem isn’t complex, it's systemic, and the cause isn’t served by celebrating the loathsome. Perhaps I’m just too old school for this particular debate, but doxxing fellow FBI street agents in the name of “whistleblowing” is inexcusable. For me, it’s nothing less than fratricide — the guilty should face a rhetorical firing squad.

Any good street cop knows, you never endanger your brothers and sisters in blue, regardless of your own personal sense of bitterness or betrayal. But, in the frenetic world of social media and corporatist news, blood is in the water. And, blood sells. There’s a Biblical principle that’s apropos, whoever rolls a stone, it will be returned to him. In the vernacular, it’s “what goes around, comes around.”

All of this — the corruption of the FBI’s integrity, the doxing of street agents, the infantile calls for defunding — is symptomatic of the national corruption of character and discourse which underlies what we’re witnessing in our institutions.

It’s the very same spirit we all deplore in our morally bankrupt leadership. It’s the same insidious self-centeredness that’s at the heart of “wokeness.” The spirit that says “I’ll define myself” in vain defiance of nature.

It’s an ancient evil; the eons-old rebellion of Lucifer, who nurtured the thought, “I shall be like the Most High.” None of us are above His law, and until we understand that, our republic and its institutions are doomed to inexorable decay.

FBI leadership has been overcome by liberal hubris. Thinking their notions of politics or justice outweigh centuries of carefully constructed processes. They imagine themselves to be above the law, that the constitution is living and malleable, subject to their tinkering.

There aren’t easy solutions anymore. We’re far beyond that point. The task is Homeric, and we’ve no hope for success unless we’re all pulling on the oars. It’s not enough to tweet about defunding the FBI — a simple-minded platitude that has no real meaning. We all have to champion the Constitution at home, in our communities, and in the national arena.

A disease is at work in the body politic, and the weaponization of the FBI is merely one of its symptoms. Coursing, at fever pitch, through the seventh floor of FBI HQ is the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Initiative. It sounds innocuous enough, however, DEI is merely the newest evolution of the old racial quotas practice. It devalues those deemed to be minorities, creates schisms based on immutable characteristics or sexual preference, and replaces equal treatment under the law with a pernicious and amorphous “equity.”

On the FBI’s official website, FBI Director Christopher Wray states, “The diversity and inclusion of our workforce is something I care deeply about…because the success of our efforts impacts our operations, our culture, and our future.”

DEI will ensure a future workforce committed to the principles of political correctness and politicization. Having been inured to the philosophy of equity, taking action to influence the political power structure will seem natural and even preferable. Of course, the arbiters of equity are and will be powerful Democrats who manipulate the docile through notions of fairness — a system that favors those who support and promote Democrat hegemony.

The White House has foisted this bigoted doctrine on every federal agency and illustrates the deeply systemic nature of the problem we face.

The weaponization of the FBI is only the tip of the iceberg. The agency I devoted twenty years of service to is only a shadow of its former self — compromised by the left it once sought to thwart. It’s an oversimplification to say the FBI has become an enforcement arm of the Democrat party. Though true, that statement misses the real threat, and the answer isn’t purely about changing national politics.

The FBI is one cog in a much bigger left-wing machine. All of this corruption springs from a deep state radically enhanced by the Obama administration. Now that the White House is occupied by a puppet of the leftist deep state, every other lever of national power has been co-opted.

The culture of the FBI was radically changed by former Director Robert Muller. The culture can be changed again by a director with a mandate. Everything else is a distraction. We need the head of the snake — the White House. And, at this point, the only candidate with a proven track record of exercising a mandate is former President Donald Trump.

NJ is Playing a Game of Chicken with Supreme Court & 2nd Amendment

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy

BELLEVUE, WA – The Second Amendment Foundation and its partners in a legal challenge of New Jersey’s “sensitive places” concealed carry statute have filed a response to the state’s motion for a stay in the Third U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The case is now known as Koons v. Platkin.

Second Amendment Foundation is joined by the Firearms Policy Coalition, the Coalition of New Jersey Firearm Owners, the New Jersey Second Amendment Society, and four private citizens.

Earlier this month, U.S. District Judge Renee Marie Bumb granted a preliminary injunction, and the state filed a motion to stay the order pending appeal.

Second Amendment Foundation opposes the stay, arguing the state “did not meet its burden before the district court, and it cannot meet it in this Court. Thus a stay pending appeal should be denied.”

“The state is struggling with all its might,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb, “in a stubborn effort to retain a literal stranglehold on the rights of New Jersey citizens. We’re challenging the ban on legal carry in parks, on beaches, and at recreation facilities, publicly owned museums and libraries, bars and restaurants where alcohol is served, entertainment facilities, airports (before TSA security), public transportation hubs, and the presumptive ban on private property.

“There is no established historical tradition that could justify the restrictions included in the new law. New Jersey simply cannot criminalize licensed concealed carry virtually everywhere in the state by designating everything as a ‘sensitive area,’ nor should it be allowed to continue enforcing these restrictions pending appeal.”

SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut said the state is playing a game of chicken with the Supreme Court and the Second Amendment.

“The state is burdened with showing the carry restrictions are consistent with the nation’s historical tradition of firearms regulation, and we don’t see how that is possible,” Kraut said. “The state has not provided any evidence of Founding era restrictions like it wants to enforce today, and is essentially trying to stall the inevitable for as long as possible.”


The Second Amendment Foundation (www.saf.org) is the nation’s oldest and largest tax-exempt education, research, publishing, and legal action group focusing on the Constitutional right and heritage to privately own and possess firearms. Founded in 1974, The Foundation has grown to more than 720,000 members and supporters and conducts many programs designed to better inform the public about the consequences of gun control.

Disneyland’s Drag Queen Shows Us It’s Time for a New Age of Doing Without

Disneyland's Drag Queen Shows Us It's Time for a New Age of Doing Without

They’re not going to leave the kids alone.

No matter how many billion woke corporations lose trying to shove gender cult nonsense down the throats of our kids and society in general, they aren’t going to stop. How do I know? Disneyland has put a man with a mustache in a dress as a greeter at the Bibbity Boppity Boo Salon where parents pay hundreds of dollars to give their little girls a princess makeover complete with a princess dress, hairstyle, and nails — which I can say from experience becomes the itchiest, hottest, glitter-filled, nightmare as soon as you walk out into the Florida sun. My daughter lasted about 15 minutes in that getup before we had to strip it off her and put her in something comfortable.

But THIS actually happened:

Let’s forget for a moment that children will almost certainly be scared by this person who exudes weirdness from every pore, but what little girl looks at him and thinks, “That’s what I want to be!”? None. Little girls like princesses because they are feminine and beautiful, not masculine and bizarre-looking.

But look around. The massive Target and Bud Light backlash did not stop Kohls from getting in on the idiocy. Nor did it stop Chick-fil-A from mandating DEI programming for its employees. They’re all pushing ahead at 400 miles per hour.

It’s time for the American public to boycott everything. By everything, I mean nothing except what is essential should be coming into our homes. Clothes can be bought second-hand at consignment shops or local thrift. You’ll save a ton of money and you won’t end up supporting this woke baloney that is infecting kids. Food can be made much cheaper at home and considering the inflation nightmare we are in, many of us don’t have much choice anymore.

Don’t eat out. Don’t buy food anywhere but the grocery store, and try to find one with a local owner who will benefit instead of some massive woke corporation. Shop at farm stands. Go in on a local cow with some neighbors and fill your freezer. These people have to feel the hurt.

Vacationing anywhere but Disney properties is pretty easy. Disney World and Disneyland are unaffordable for most people. There are national parks out there worth seeing. There are streams to fish in, campgrounds to explore, and mountains to climb. We’re all too fat, anyway. Make your summer vacation an active one. Cook your own food over a fire and enjoy nature that God will never spoil by slapping garish rainbow decor all over it.

It’s time to get serious, and not just about one store or one brand. Boycott them all. Replace as much as you can with locally grown, locally made, or gently used, or make do with less. Doing with less is actually something that would benefit us all. Isn’t it a great feeling when you take bags of giveaways out of the house? We should do more of that and less shopping. More giving and less mindless consumption will improve our lives, and it would send shock waves through the retail and fast food business.

My porch needs a sprucing up for sure. The cushions are faded and mismatched. But instead of spending hundreds of dollars on new ones, my daughter and I came up with a plan to do it ourselves using canvas drop cloths we can dye and sew into new covers. We figured out how to make fabric paint with acrylic paint and medium gloss so we can decorate the new pillows with our camping theme. We have wood scraps we can turn into candleholders and plywood to fashion wall hangings. It’s going to take longer than going to Walmart and just buying the stuff. It may even take us all summer (and I’ll share photos when it’s done), but I’m done giving my money to these places that have absolutely no regard for my family or me.

My new motto is “nothing but the basics.” Who’s with me?

A Christian’s Response to Pride Month Mike Gendron

The month of June is celebrated by the "alphabet people" as Pride Month. How are we as Christians to respond? First, we must have compassion for those who are outside of Christ and share the Gospel whenever there is an open door. Let us never forget, we too, "formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath. But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love...made us alive together with Christ" (Eph. 2:3-5). We must remain sanctified by the truth and avoid participating in anything that blatantly defies God (Acts 5:29). We must never celebrate the immorality that Scripture condemns. "Because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience Therefore do not be partakers with them; for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light (for the fruit of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth), trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord. Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them (Eph. 5:6-10). Sin is never to be celebrated but rather mourned over (Romans 1:32).

Following are several revelations concerning pride from Scripture.

Pride is a condition of the heart that exchanges the rightful rule of God for self-rule. Instead of depending on God, a proud heart seeks its own glory and purpose. It was pride that led Adam and Eve to disobey God in order to become like God. Our sovereign Lord has never been pleased with the proud who seek glory for themselves rather than for God. Scripture warns us that the proud will ultimately fall but can also be forgiven if and when they are humbled under the sovereign hand of almighty God.

The proud man stands in opposition to God. "God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble" (James 4:6).

The proud demands his rights. The proud is obsessed with praising himself. Proud people reject God's Word and seek glory for themselves. The proud exalts himself, bringing dishonor. "When pride comes, then comes dishonor, but with the humble is wisdom" (Prov. 11:2)

The proud seeks the approval of men. The humble desires the approval of God. "For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ" (Gal. 1:10).

May God be glorified in the month of June as Christians defend His honor and authority! May the Spirit of God bring conviction of sin and grant repentance and faith to those who are perishing.
