This morning, CNN reported that the White House sent a letter to top US news executives urging them to intensify their scrutiny of House Republicans after Speaker Kevin McCarthy launched an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.  Spokesperson for the White House Counsels Office, Ian Sams, wrote, "It’s time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies." A White House official familiar with the matter says Biden's administration sent the letter to organizations, including the CNN, the Associated Press, CBS News, Fox News, The New York Times, and others. The White House insists that the impeachment inquiry has no supporting evidence, despite non-profit research group Marco Polo's extensive reporting on Hunter Biden's laptop, among other findings. In the last several months, investigations by the GOP House Oversight Committee and the House Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government have exposed the Biden crime family corruption through receipts, letters, and other sources. Rep. Jim Jordan (OH-R) and Rep. James Comer (KY-R) have led this charge. Read More.

According to Libby Emmons of The Post Millennial, a report from SoundInvestigations.com reveals that Pornhub CEO Mike Farley found a loophole around the age verification process for explicit, pornographic content. Farley says when videos are uploaded to the porn site with faces blurred out, Pornhub does not verify the ages of those in the videos. An undercover reported for Sound Investigations recorded Pornhub CEO Mike Farley over dinner, who revealed that Pornhub site executives are aware of this loophole, and human traffickers and rapists are allegedly using this loophole of bypassing age verification to "make a lot of money." The story was first reported by Sound Investigations journalist, Arden Young. Watch the undercover video here. It's worth noting that PornHub's parent company, MindGeek, is based out of Quebec, Canada. Sound Investigations asked Farley what would happen "if the government was to find out about this loophole. What would they do?" "I don't know," Farley said, "They're not going to do sh*t. They'll do nothing." Farley says only the person who is uploading the videos to Pornhub has to provide an ID for age verification. Additionally, Farley told Sound Investigations that he, and his boss Ramsey Belmaaza, have brought up this concern to officers of the company, but that those officers do not want to hear about it.

On Tuesday, Republican U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced the launched of an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, officially sending Congress into an effort to remove the corruption-filled president following two impeachments of former President Donald Trump. McCarthy's move follows months of the GOP House Oversight Committee's findings into the shady business dealings and power-peddling of the Biden crime family. Upcoming hearings from the House of Representatives could avenge Trump after what many consider to be the stolen Presidential election of 2020. As the impeachment probe of Joe Biden was launched, Washington Post columnist David Ignatius wrote in a surprising piece that Biden should not run for reelection, insisting that the now-president should have stopped Hunter Biden from joining the board of a Ukrainian energy company, Burisma, while he was Vice President.

I’m kind of repeating myself but I have to say it every time: I’m really living my childhood dream to compete at the highest level in the sport that has given me and my family so much. Coming from very difficult circumstances and adversities, during the 90s, a couple of wars in our country, and being able to push through. Especially for my parents, giving a lot of sacrifice to support me to play. I love you so much.” He continues: “To support me to play the sport, which is a very expensive sport. At that time, very expensive, not accessible, not affordable. But I fell in love with the tennis. No one has played tennis in my family before. It was quite a choice I must say. But incredible resilience, just belief from my parents and all the people around me. All these years, my wife, my kids, my team, everyone that is there. This is your trophy as much as it is mine. This is your success. I love you.” Following his win, Djokovic paid tribute to his late friend, basketball legend Kobe Bryant: "Kobe was a close friend. ... 24 is the jersey that he wore when he became a legend ... so I thought it could be a nice symbolic thing to acknowledge him for all the things he's done."

After being booed out of his film screening, Woody Allen, 87, leaves Venice Film Festival in Italy alongside his wife Soon-Yi Previn, 52, who is his ex-girlfriend's adopted daughter. The Daily Mail reported that, "The couple's relationship has been mired by controversy as Soon-Yi is the adopted daughter of Woody's ex-girlfriend Mia Farrow. Mia and Woody began dating in 1979, but 13 years later their relationship ended when Woody, then 55, and Soon-Yi, then 21, were caught having an affair. Woody and his family were at Venice Film Festival for the premiere and first official screening of his film Coup De Chance." The festival was overshadowed by booing from opposition over allegations that he sexually assaulted his adoptive daughter, Dylan Farrow, which he vehemently denies. A group of protesters marched by Allen, chanting in Italian: 'We are the loud and fierce shout of all the bodies that no longer have a voice.' Allen's film Coup De Chance will unlikely be screened in the US after Hollywood cut ties with him following his daughter's allegations. Read More.

The question remains whether U.S. Attorney David Weiss, now a special counsel, will testify in three weeks before the House Judiciary Committee in connection to the Hunter Biden investigation. The Washington Examiner has reported that the Justice Department blocked other witnesses from complying with congressional subpoenas in House Republican probes into the Biden crime family. Two days before Hunter Biden’s plea deal imploded at a court hearing, the Justice Department offered to make Weiss available for a public hearing before the House Judiciary Committee as soon as Sept. 27. “While testimony at this early juncture must be appropriately limited to protect the ongoing matter and important confidentiality interests, the Department acknowledges your stated interest in addressing aspects of this matter in the near term,” Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte wrote to GOP committee chairmen on July 24. Weiss's appointment as special counsel was made after Hunter Biden’s unfortunate day in court on July 26, a moment that investigative reporter Sarah Bedford suggests may have also led to further cooperation between congressional investigators and the Justice Department. DOJ officials told lawmakers last week that they would not allow two FBI agents who worked on the Hunter Biden investigation to comply with subpoenas for their testimony, citing the criminal proceedings and House Republicans’ push for the two agents to appear at depositions, in which DOJ lawyers could not accompany them.

Newsweek journalist Ewan Palmer reported that the length of Fulton County Fani Willis' election interference trial in Georgia may effect other trials involving Donald Trump, according to a legal expert. On Wednesday, Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee will oversee a hearing on whether former Trump lawyers Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell can have their cases tried independently. Willis intends to try all 19 defendants charged under her anti-racketeering investigation into alleged criminal attempts to overturn the 2020 election together, and has suggested her office is prepared to begin proceedings as soon as October 23, 2023. Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General Harry Litman suggested in a series of posts on X, formerly known as Twitter, that Fulton County Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis' office will have a problem estimating how long it will take to present the state's joint trial case of all 19 RICO trial defendants, as well as the number of witnesses and the size of the evidence likely to be introduced.
