Biden’s Days Now Numbered

Democrats are working behind the scenes to have President Joe Biden drop out of the 2024 election campaign while still remaining president.

Billionaire, and former Presidential Candidate Steve Forbes, says Biden WILL NOT be on the ballot in November and he knows who will. Forbes suggests California Gov. Gavin Newsom will replace Biden, but others have advanced Hillary Clinton or Michelle Obama as alternative prospects.

If it’s Newsom, will he keep Kamala Harris as vice president or replace her with someone not from California? Here’s more from Natali and Clayton Morris on Redacted News.

Trumps, Cuomos In Black Book

A second little black book has surfaced in the Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking scandal that contains members of the Trump, Cuomo and Kennedy families. Addy Adds, referring to an article in Insider.com, reports the book was found on Fifth Avenue in New York by a passerby in 1997 and put aside for 24 years before resurfacing on eBay last month, where it sold for $425.

The address book contained 349 names, of which 221 did not appear in the first book. In addition to President Trump, the names of his first wife, Ivana, and daughter Ivanka were in the book. Trump has  repeatedly disavowed any wrongdoing regarding the Epstein case. Another name in the book related to the Trumps was that of Suzanne Ircha Johnson, alleged best friend of Melania Trump. Two Cuomos were in the book–Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Cristina Greeven, Chris Cuomo’s wife. Bobby Kennedy Jr. and Ted Kennedy were also listed.

Other surprising names in the book included Saudi Arabia’s King Salman, Barbara Walters, Michael Bloomberg, financier Carl Icahn, actor Morgan Fairchild, Henry Kissinger, former New Mexico governors Bill Richardson and Bruce King and Steve Forbes. Be warned that the appearance of names in either of the two black books doesn’t necessarily tie them to the Epstein sex scandal. Here’s more with Addy Adds, who also reports the associate warden at Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where Ghislaine Maxwell is being held, was charged in connection with the shooting death of her husband; an update on the Maxwell case; and a review of the Epstein case and the first black book with author Nick Bryant.

Student Loan Debt And Fairness

Democrats say they pride themselves on preaching fairness when debating issues. But that sincerity flies out the door when it comes to their pet projects, such as student loan debt.

New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is urging her colleagues to pressure Joe Biden to wipe out student loan debt, which now stands at $1.7 trillion, should he inherit the White House. Never mind the dedicated souls who toiled through multiple jobs and double shifts to pay off their loans. Not only would such a lamebrain move make a mockery of the system, but there also is no doubt college tuition rates will skyrocket.

Forbes Media Chairman and former Presidential candidate Steve Forbes says there is a fairness issue to all of this. “It makes the people who took their obligation seriously look like fools. If they have this debt forgiveness of any kind of scale, you’re going to have people wondering why should I pay those obligations, why should I take those extra jobs, why should I sacrifice a private university to go to a public university to save money and honor my obligations?” Here’s more with Forbes on the Fox Business Network.
