Joe Biden

A CNN panel on Friday openly laughed at Cyber Ninjas, the vote "auditors" praised by former President Donald Trump who failed to prove that President Joe Biden stole the 2020 election.

Host Jake Tapper asked Republican strategist Alice Stewart to comment on the results of the "audit," which confirmed that Biden really did receive more votes in Arizona than Trump did.

Former President Donald Trump on Friday scrambled to claim vindication after his own Arizona election audit concluded that President Joe Biden received more votes than he did in the 2020 election.

While appearing on the "Real America's Voice" network, Trump said that the final audit results will show that he won the state, even though he really did lose it.

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said on Friday that President Joe Biden would not invoke executive privilege to prevent Trump White House documents from being handed over to the House select committee investigating the January 6th Capitol riots.

"The president has already concluded that it would not be appropriate to assert executive privilege," Psaki said, according to Politico's Kyle Cheney.

In a press release this Friday, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) announced that she will be introducing an article of impeachment against President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

"Joe Biden willfully abandoned his duty as President of the United States and violated his constitutional oath to 'take care that the laws be faithfully executed' by failing to ensure the national security of the United States and its citizens," the press release read. "Joe Biden and Kamala Harris handed over billions of dollars of American-made weapons to the very scum of the earth that we spent $2 trillion fighting. The Biden regime is not being held accountable. There have been no resignations, no indictments, no investigations, no congressional oversight, no outcry from the mainstream media, and no apologies—so I'm stepping up to hold Biden and Harris accountable by filing articles of impeachment for giving aid and comfort to America's enemies and colluding with the Taliban."

Former Republican Arizona Attorney General Grant Woods delivered a withering rebuke of the Cyber Ninjas "audit" of his state's 2020 vote count during an appearance on CNN Friday.

While talking with host Alisyn Camerota, Woods said he was surprised at how "100 percent incompetent" the operation was, as he at least expected it to make up a flimsy pretext to claim former President Donald Trump really won the election that he lost decisively to President Joe Biden.

According to news that broke late Thursday, the results of a months-long hand recount of the 2020 vote in Maricopa County, Arizona, has confirmed that Joe Biden won the 2020 election and there was no mass voter fraud designed to "steal" the election from former President Donald Trump.

Writing in The Washington Post this Friday, Greg Sargent says that the audit's conclusion won't prompt Republicans to confirm that confidence in our elections is restored. Instead, he writes, "they'll use it to continue undermining that confidence, for the express purpose of justifying further anti-democratic tactics."

The US House of Representatives approved a bill on Friday protecting abortion rights, a historic but largely symbolic move that has little chance of passage in the Senate.

The Democratic-majority House passed the Women's Health Protection Act by a vote of 218-211.

CNN reporter Kyung Lah on Friday didn't mince any words when discussing the disastrous Trump-backed "audit" of the Arizona vote that found that President Joe Biden won Arizona by a bigger margin than the official tallies.

While discussing the audit with host John King, Lah explained that the final Cyber Ninjas report should not at all be taken seriously despite the fact that it shows Biden winning the state.

A round of new subpoenas show the House select committee is investigating events that led up to the Jan. 6 insurrection and lawmakers have a pretty clear idea of which Donald Trump loyalists played the biggest role in the attack.

The panel requested records and testimony from former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, former White House strategist Steve Bannon, former Trump deputy chief of staff and director of social media Dan Scavino, and former Pentagon official and Trump loyalist Kashyap Patel -- and the subpoenas show lawmakers are looking beyond the insurrection, reported Rolling Stone.

Donald Trump continues to insist the 2020 election was stolen from him, even after a draft report from the Arizona "forensic audit" shows, once again, he was beaten by Joe Biden.

The Republican-led state Arizona Senate ordered the audit that has been plagued with irregularities and credibility issues from the start, and draft reports that circulated Thursday evening showed fewer votes for Trump and even more for Biden than previously counted -- but that didn't stop the twice-impeached one-term president from claiming vindication.

Senate Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is refusing to say he will not "mount a blockade" against a possible Supreme Court nominee put forth by President Joe Biden, should the opportunity arise, if Republicans take back the Senate after the 2022 elections.

McConnell, as Majority Leader, infamously refused to even allow then-President Barack Obama's Supreme Court nominee to have any confirmation hearings, keeping the seat open if a Republican won the White House in 2016, which Donald Trump did.

Former president Donald Trump is out for revenge at all costs against Republicans who haven't marched in lockstep with him — including Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell, according to Daily Beast columnist Margaret Carlson.

"Trump doesn't care so much if the party wins back the House and Senate so long as he gets his revenge on those who didn't worship ardently enough at his altar," Carlson writes. "That is, he cares more about the GOP remaining 'his party' than he does about the GOP actually doing well enough to reclaim Congress."
