The big political story today (for any media outlet choosing to cover it) is from IRS whistleblowers about the DOJ and Hunter Biden criminal investigation:
🚨 GAME CHANGER 🚨 Bombshell evidence revealed by IRS whistleblowers about how the DOJ rigged the Hunter Biden criminal investigation - forensic tax evidence of ill-gotten millions from China and Ukraine.

The "I never talked to my son about his overseas business dealings" response was never believable in the first place.

The media will try to get this out of the news cycle as fast as possible. Heck, CNN's trying to make sure it never enters the news cycle today:
