A look at the time Tucker Carlson asked Hunter Biden for a favor - https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/05/19/look-time-tucker-carlson-asked-hunter-biden-favor/
"Tucker Carlson and his wife were looking to get their son a leg up in his college application to Georgetown University when they turned to a well-connected Washington friend who had an even better-connected father.
“I realize you don’t really know Buckley,” Susie Carlson wrote via email in 2014 to Hunter Biden, a Georgetown graduate and the son of the then-vice president. “Maybe you could meet or speak to him and he could send you a very brief resume with his interests and grades attached.”
Tucker Carlson offered that his son was a good squash player and an excellent fly fisherman. “He loves Washington for all the right reasons, I think,” Carlson added, “and really wants to go to school here.” When Biden agreed to write a letter of recommendation, Susie Carlson added a heap of praise: “Tucker and I have the greatest respect and admiration for you. Always!”"

The Damage Report: May 23, 2022

Bill Maher goes after children identifying as LGBTQ and makes a bizarre claim that the state of California is creating gay people. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report. Read more here: Bill Maher Slams Gender-Affirming Care for Trans Kids in LGBTQ Rant - https://www.thedailybeast.com/bill-maher-slams-gender-affirming-care-for-trans-kids-in-lgbtq-rant "Bill Maher has been trending on Twitter after saying gender-affirming care for trans adolescents like puberty blockers is “literally experimenting on children” and accused kids of coming out as trans because it’s “trendy” and because being gay “is not hip enough.” The comedian referenced a recent Gallup poll which showed more Americans than ever before (7 per cent) identify as LGBTQ+, with 21 per cent of Gen Z saying that they were queer. “If we follow this trajectory we will all be gay in 2054,” he said. Maher suggested that the long-term effects of puberty blockers haven’t been studied enough, citing studies that say they cause lack of bone density and infertility. “Never forget children are impressionable and very, very stupid… Maybe the boy who thinks he’s a girl is just gay, or whatever Frasier was,” Maher said referring to Kelsey Grammer’s uppity psychiatrist character. “Maybe the girl who hates girly stuff just needs to learn that being female doesn’t mean you have to act like a Kardashian. Maybe childhood makes you sad sometimes and there are other solutions besides, ‘Hand me the dick saw.’” “If you haven’t noticed that, with kids, doing something for the likes is more important than their own genitals, you haven’t been paying attention,” he said."

Louisiana Senator, Bill Cassidy, wants to 'correct' the statistics of the rate of maternal mortality in Louisiana to not include black women.

Bill Cassidy said that the state's poor maternal mortality rate is only an "outlier" because of the high proportion of Black women in the state, according to Politico. Cassidy's comment was featured in Politico's in-depth exploration of Louisiana's maternal death rates, which are among the worst in the country. The state ranks 47 out of 48 states assessed for maternal deaths, state officials said. Cassidy told the outlet that this is partly because "about a third of our population is African American; African Americans have a higher incidence of maternal mortality."

Belgium became the first country to impose a quarantine on its residents because of monkeypox, requiring those infected to isolate for 21 days. But in the United States, “I just don’t think it rises to the level of the kind of concern that existed with covid-19, and the smallpox vaccine works for it,” Biden said at a news conference Monday after meeting with Kishida Fumio, the Japanese prime minister, at Akasaka Palace."

But one book is from someone who still seems to be on his side. In Here’s the Deal, Kellyanne Conway details her stint as the former president’s counselor, a job she did while her own husband fought to stop her boss’ re-election. There’s still plenty of dirt, including a claim that he almost quit the 2016 race shortly before he won. As per The Daily Beast, Conway delves into the aftermath of the Access Hollywood tape, in which Trump was caught making leud comments about women, including that he liked to “grab them by the p*ssy.” The bombshell almost — but not quite — upended his presidential aspirations, mere weeks before election day. Conway claims even he wondered if his political days had ended."

Trump “retruthed” the comment about civil war. “The most powerful country in the world is falling so fast, that it makes you rethink what are the real reasons,” Bukele’s tweet read. “Something so big and powerful can’t be destroyed so quickly, unless the enemy comes from within.”" Watch Francesca on The Bitchuation Room Sundays at 5/8EST http://www.youtube.com/franifio Follow Francesca: http://www.twitter.com/franifio Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Marjorie Greene has a lot of opinions on the monkeypox outbreak and shares a new conspiracy involving Bill Gates. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report.

Once the current monkeypox outbreak spread to the U.S., it was only a matter of time before conspiracy theories about this outbreak began spreading as well. And it was only a matter of time before such conspiracy theories began mentioning Bill Gates, the Microsoft co-founder and billionaire philanthropist. All of this should be about as surprising as a cat fight or a “here’s why you suck” speech on a reality TV show. After all, consider how many different Bill Gates-related conspiracy theories have emerged ever since the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic began in early 2020, some of which I covered for Forbes back in April 2020. For example, there was that Gates-placing-microchips-in-Covid-19-vaccines-to-track-everyone-for-who-knows-why conspiracy theory that people shared on Facebook and smartphones, two things that ironically do actually track people. Some politicians have further fueled such theories by either not denouncing them or even propagating them."
