Louise Lucas’ Portsmouth office and cannabis dispensary was raided by the FBI.However, reports surfaced after the raid that the investigation into the 81-year-old, three-decade senator was started under former President Joe Biden’s administration.Scandal-plagued Attorney General Jay Jones — whose comments about envisioning the murder of the commonwealth’s former GOP House Speaker roiled his ultimately successful campaign – cast aspersions on President Donald Trump and “failed prosecutions” of his political “enemies.””We simply do not have sufficient information about the reported FBI activity in Portsmouth. However, several previous actions of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia have undermined public confidence in that office,” he said of the Alexandria-centered prosecutor’s office that handles cases in Lucas’ region.POWERFUL DEM’S JABS AT TRUMP COME BACK TO HAUNT HER AFTER OFFICE RAIDED BY FBI: ‘AGED WELL’ “These include the failed prosecutions against President Trump’s stated political enemies, former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James that were both dismissed by a judge well before trial.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, R-Ark., said the mainstream media’s coverage of President Donald Trump reflects what she described as a loss of control in the industry.Appearing on “The Riley Gaines Show” Tuesday, the former White House press secretary argued the media’s criticism of Trump stems from his ability to bypass traditional gatekeepers and reach the public directly.”That’s one of the things they hated the most is that he didn’t need them,” Sanders said.”He was able to talk directly to the American people without having to use the media in a way that everybody who had come before him had to,” she added.TV EXECUTIVE PANICS THAT TRUMP WINNING MEANS PRESS HAS NO INFLUENCE: ‘MAINSTREAM MEDIA IS DEAD’ The president has consistently used social media sites to share his thoughts with the public. Trump later created his own platform, Truth Social, after he was banned from Twitter prior to its acquisition by Elon Musk.”This was somebody who decided that he wasn’t just [going to] stick with the traditional types of media,” Sanders said. “And if they were [going to] continue to attack him relentlessly, which they have done, he would simply go around them.”THE…

Judy Chu, D-Calif., said.Democrats suffered a blistering defeat in 2024, losing the popular vote nationally as Republicans stormed to a governing trifecta across the White House, Senate and House of Representatives.Harris, who did not outperform former President Joe Biden’s 2020 election performance in any county across the U.S., raised eyebrows when she passed up an opportunity to run for governor of…

The SAP sling is available in many colors and offers modern match guns a highly functional cuff setup.The steadier your rifle, the tighter your groups. Good shooting support gear will help with that.Shooting support gear is an interesting topic. As of right now, there are more companies producing more shooting accessories than ever before, and a good number of them are unfortunately poorly made … or just downright snake oil. Not every sling is equal, not every tripod is equal, and there are certainly a lot of bipods out there.So, let’s look at where the need for support gear started and see where it takes us.An (Abridged) History of Sights and SlingsIf we go all the way back in history, to when firearms were first adopted, you will see that they were typically large and required a lot of material support to get them into position to use. As guns were miniaturized, attempts began to emerge that made them lighter, more portable and more ergonomic. It could be argued that the quintessential shape of the modern rifle emerged as early as 1700, but it could also be argued that it wasn’t until at least the 1850s that we saw what…
