EXCLUSIVE: House Republicans who are investigating President Biden and his family’s business dealings slammed the president Tuesday for choosing Delaware for his re-election campaign headquarters and demanded he release visitor logs from his residences in the state.

Biden announced on Tuesday that his 2024 re-election campaign headquarters will be located in Wilmington, Delaware, declaring there is “no better place” to “fight to finish the job for the American people.” The president’s 2020 campaign was headquartered in Philadelphia before being run largely out of his Wilmington home due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Oversight Committee Republicans said the Delaware location will provide a shield of sorts for Biden after he’s faced criticism for regular trips to the state that have cost taxpayers millions. An Associated Press analysis released in January said the president spent more than a quarter of his first two years in office in Delaware.

HUNTER BIDEN’S CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS DAD’S NEW CAMPAIGN CO-CHAIR REVEALED IN LAPTOP EMAILS

“It’s no shock to me or millions of other Americans that the president and his team named Delaware the home of their re-election headquarters,” Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., told Fox News Digital. “Delaware is notably home to Joe Biden’s infamous basement, where his handlers will surely place him throughout the 2024 campaign. Joe Biden will comfortably hang out underground while his DOJ and the liberal media attack his political enemies.”

“Candidate Joe Biden promised, if elected, to have the most transparent administration in history,” added Rep. Pat Fallon, R-Texas. “As president, he’s fallen woefully short. Consider his decision to locate his campaign headquarters in Delaware, a place where he keeps two residencies and frequents regularly. Joe Biden should enthusiastically offer to release visitor logs from both his homes. But don’t hold your breath – odds are you’re going to turn blue.”

HUNTER BIDEN’S CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS DAD’S NEW CAMPAIGN CO-CHAIR REVEALED IN LAPTOP EMAILS

The Republican committee members argued that the campaign’s location adds more importance to the White House keeping and releasing visitor logs from Biden’s residences in Wilmington and Rehoboth. The White House Counsel’s Office said in January that such logs don’t exist after Biden’s lawyers discovered a stash of classified documents inside his Wilmington home.

“I don’t think it matters one way or another where his headquarters are,” Rep. Tim Burchett, R. Tenn., told Fox News Digital. “I’m not surprised. This White House hides everything. Their counsel’s office and Secret Service said there were no logs for Wilmington, I call BS. They know exactly who comes and goes.”

“Biden should be releasing his visitor logs at all of his residences given his recent compromises. I am frankly most concerned with his visitor logs the date of July 2, when cocaine was found in the West Wing,” added Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla.

Luna was referring to cocaine being found by Secret Service at the White House earlier this month. The Secret Service opened an investigation but later announced it had closed its probe without naming a suspect due to a lack of physical evidence.

The White House counsel’s office previously said it is not standard practice for the White House to keep visitor logs of presidents’ personal residences.

Former President Donald Trump stopped making White House visitor logs public in 2017, citing privacy concerns, but the Biden administration restored the practice, albeit incomplete.

The Biden White House’s visitor logs have not included Hunter Biden’s White House visits or visits from several other Biden family members, and many of the entries are duplicates or missing key information.

The Biden campaign did not respond to Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.

Special Presidential Envoy for Climate (SPEC) John Kerry announced during a press conference in China on Wednesday that his visit to the nation failed to yield any significant climate agreement.

Kerry told reporters that, while he and his Chinese counterparts engaged in “frank” discussions about fighting global warming, they couldn’t solidify any formal agreement. He added that the U.S. and China — the world’s two largest polluters — will need additional time to hash out a climate deal between the nations.

“We came to Beijing in order to unstick what has been stuck for almost a year, and that’s the in-person dialogue between the United States and China,” Kerry said, E&E News reported.

“We had very frank conversations, but we came here to break new ground, which we think is important at this stage, and it is clear that we are going to need a little more work to be able to complete that task, which we still believe, both of us, is doable,” he continued.

WATCHDOG HITS JOHN KERRY WITH SCIENCE ETHICS COMPLAINT OVER CLIMATE CHANGE DEATHS CLAIM

And the climate czar said the U.S. and China will continue in the coming weeks and months to negotiate on an “accelerated” schedule, according to Bloomberg.

“We’re not finished finding the pathway with clarity on both sides that will allow us to achieve what we need to achieve,” Kerry said.

Kerry’s trip to China and meetings with Chinese officials came about a year after climate talks between the two nations stalled in response to former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s, D-Calif., high-profile trip to Taiwan. The State Department confirmed in May that Kerry had quietly restarted climate talks with China and that his office was planning future in-person meetings.

STATE DEPARTMENT FAILED TO PROPERLY ASSESS JOHN KERRY’S CARBON FOOTPRINT DESPITE BIDEN ORDER: GOV WATCHDOG

Since assuming the SPEC position, Kerry has engaged in various private talks with Chinese counterparts, including two 2021 meetings in China. Following a regional climate summit in April 2021, though, Kerry told CNBC that solving climate change was “not about China.”

However, Kerry’s role in the Biden administration has been criticized by top Republican lawmakers who have also taken issue with his negotiations on behalf of the U.S. with China. In 2021, President Biden appointed Kerry to be SPEC, a position that hadn’t previously existed, didn’t require Senate approval, and gives him a spot on the president’s cabinet and National Security Council.

“Despite not being confirmed by the U.S. Senate, John Kerry is still negotiating with the Chinese Communist Party to push a radical, Green New Deal agenda detrimental to American interests,” House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., said in a statement to Fox News Digital earlier this week.

“President Biden granted his Climate Czar the ability to unilaterally set foreign policy and bind the United States to international agreements without consent from Congress,” Comer continued. “China now recognizes that this is an opportunity to take advantage of this Administration’s weak leadership that consistently puts the priorities of Americans last.”

In one of his first actions leading the Oversight Committee, Comer opened a probe in February into Kerry’s office over its negotiations with China. And in May, Comer again promised “intense scrutiny” of Kerry’s China climate talks.

“The Biden Administration’s continued attempts at appeasing Communist China are pathetic,” Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., who chairs the House Republican Conference, said this week. 

“While the CCP is conducting cyber espionage attacks on U.S. executive agencies, operating an intelligence collection facility in our backyard, and buying up U.S. agricultural land next to sensitive military installations, Joe Biden continues to pander to the CCP by sending John Kerry to Beijing, ignoring their aggressions, to engage in futile discussions about climate change with the world’s biggest polluter,” she added.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog called on the U.S. to act “forcefully” against Iran’s efforts to obtain a nuclear weapon and reaffirmed his support for the independence of Israel’s judiciary on Wednesday.

Herzog delivered a speech before a joint session of Congress on Wednesday, praising the long friendship between the U.S. and Israel before diving into points of policy. Welcomed to the chamber with raucous applause, the Israeli leader urged action on Iran, but acknowledged widespread protests within Israel against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plans for judicial reforms.

“Allowing Iran to become a nuclear threshold state – whether by omission or by diplomatic commission – is unacceptable. The world cannot remain indifferent to the Iranian regime’s call to wipe Israel off the map. Tolerating this call and Iran’s measures to realize it, is an inexcusable moral collapse,” Herzog said.

“Backed by the free world, Israel and the United States must act forcefully together to prevent Iran’s fundamental threat to international security. I am here to reiterate what every Israeli leader has declared for decades: the State of Israel is determined to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapon capabilities,” he continued.

‘SQUAD’ MEMBERS VOTE AGAINST PRO-ISRAEL RESOLUTION, ONE CALLS ISRAEL ‘APARTHEID’ STATE

BIDEN LAMPOONED FOR BEING LED AWAY BY KING CHARLES III: ‘HE LOOKS LIKE MR. MAGOO’

Herzog went on to reiterate his support for Israeli democracy. Netanyahu’s push to reform the country’s judiciary system has lead to widespread and often violent protests. The prime minister and his allies seek to strip Israeli courts of certain powers, such as its authority to strike down government decisions it deems “unreasonable.”

“I will say to you, our friends, in English, what I have said to my people, to my sisters and brothers, in Hebrew: as a nation, we must find the way to talk to each other no matter how long it takes. As head of state, I will continue doing everything to reach a broad public consensus, and to preserve, protect and defend the State of Israel’s democracy,” Herzog said.

President Biden has held little back in his criticisms of Netanyahu’s efforts, though Republicans have continued to pressure the White House to invite Netanyahu to the U.S.

Biden on Monday reached out to the Israeli leader to solidify a get-together at some point this year, though details have yet to be determined.

‘SQUAD’ MEMBERS VOTE AGAINST PRO-ISRAEL RESOLUTION, ONE CALLS ISRAEL ‘APARTHEID’ STATE

Biden told Herzog on Tuesday that he conveyed to Netanyahu that “America’s commitment to Israel is firm and it is ironclad.”

Herzog went on to praise the U.S. for continuing to facilitate peace between Israel and other nations in the Middle East. He specifically shouted out the Abraham Accords, negotiated under former President Donald Trump, and said Israel remains open to peace with any nation.

The leader’s discussion of his country’s conflict with Palestinians was more nuanced, however. He began by condemning terrorist organizations within Gaza and the West Bank, highlighting the rewards Palestinian terrorists receive for carrying out attacks in Israel.

“Palestinian terror against Israel or Israelis undermines any possibility for a future of peace between our peoples. Israelis are targeted while waiting for busses, while taking a stroll on the promenade, while spending time with their family. At the same time, successful terror attacks are celebrated, terrorists are glorified, and their families are financially rewarded for every Israeli they attack,” Herzog said.

“The younger generation of Israelis and Palestinians deserve better. They are all worthy of a future to look towards, a future of peace and prosperity. A future of hope. I am wholeheartedly committed to this vision, a vision of hope and peace, true peace, without any terror,” he added.

Herzog went on to acknowledge criticisms from U.S. members of Congress regarding Israel’s treatment of Palestinians. While he says he respects the criticism “especially from friends,” he added that “one does not always have to accept it.”

“Criticism of Israel must not cross the line into negation of the State of Israel’s right to exist. Questioning the Jewish people’s right to self-determination, is not legitimate diplomacy, it is antisemitism,” he said.

DEAR ANNIE: I would like to add to your advice to the mom whose 22-year-old daughter wants to move into her own apartment. Based on past experience, “Distressed About Departing Dependent” is worried that her daughter will soon be asking her for money to pay rent, which she is unable to provide. Your advice was to support her in other ways, but “if she asks for cash, tell her no, and stick to it.” The baby bird needs to learn to fly on her own. Good advice, but wrong timing.

As a parent, landlord and former family financial counselor, I would say the time to have the “no cash” talk is well before the daughter gets all excited and signs a year-long lease. Combine that with helping the daughter develop a realistic spending plan (budget) so she will know what impact paying rent will have on her lifestyle — before signing a lease. There are excellent resources available in bookstores and online.

FIRST ON FOX: A bicameral congressional delegation is filing an amicus brief with the Supreme Court on Wednesday, calling for it to strike down a lower court order pausing a natural gas pipeline green-lit by recent legislation.

The delegation — led by GOP Chief Deputy Whip Guy Reschenthaler, R-Pa., and joined by seven fellow representatives and Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va. — argued that a 4th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling last week blocking Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) construction was illegal. The Fiscal Responsibility Act, the bipartisan debt limit bill President Biden signed in early June, fast-tracked federal permits for the MVP.

“The Fourth Circuit judges are not supreme rulers and lawful orders issued by the legislative and executive branches must be followed,” Reschenthaler told Fox News Digital in a statement. “Congress was well within its power to restart the Mountain Valley Pipeline construction and usher in a new era of energy independence for the region.” 

“Instead of halting the pipeline, I urge the Supreme Court to plug up the ludicrous activism seeping out of the lower court so American families can enjoy lower energy costs, substantial land royalties, and most importantly – law and order in America,” he continued.

JOE MANCHIN CALLS ‘BULLS—‘ ON GOP TAKING CREDIT FOR GAS PIPELINE IN DEBT CEILING DEAL

The Fiscal Responsibility Act also transfers jurisdiction for judicial review of legal challenges related to MVP from the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The language was included as a result of the appeals panel’s history of striking down key permits for the project.

The MVP pipeline, which would stretch 303 miles from West Virginia to Virginia, is currently 94% complete, but has been slowed by a lengthy permitting process. The project was first proposed nearly a decade ago.

DEM SENATOR UNLOADS ON WHITE HOUSE FOR AGREEING TO FAST-TRACK GAS PIPELINE IN BUDGET DEAL

“If the stays remain in place, Congress’s authority will be usurped and the harm to the people will be irreparable. Respondents must pursue their claims of invalidity, if at all, in the D.C. Circuit pursuant to the Act,” the lawmakers wrote in their Supreme Court brief Wednesday. “This Court should grant the Emergency Application and vacate the Fourth Circuit stays for lack of jurisdiction.”

“Congress acted within its authority,” they added. “It also acted sensibly and with bipartisan support. The Fourth Circuit, however, simply disregarded the law. Worse, the court did so without opinion or any articulated rationale. If this is to be a republic of laws and not of men, a recurring three-judge panel of the Fourth Circuit cannot be permitted to override the clear will of the people. Intervention is imperative.”

On Friday, the pipeline’s developer asked the Supreme Court to vacate the stay issued by the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals. The court then set a deadline of early next week for plaintiffs, a coalition of environmental groups, to respond.

Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., who also played a role in securing the pipeline in the Fiscal Responsibility Act, filed his own amicus brief in the case Tuesday.

“We cannot let this continue any longer,” Manchin said. “It’s a shame when members of Congress have to ask the Supreme Court to intervene to maintain the credibility of the laws that we have passed and the President has signed, but I am confident that the Court will uphold our laws and allow construction of MVP to resume.”

According to Equitrans Midstream, the pipeline’s developer, MVP will transport about 2 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from West Virginia to consumers in the Mid-Atlantic and South Atlantic. The pipeline is projected to generate $40 million in new tax revenue for West Virginia, $10 million in new tax revenue for Virginia and up to $250 million in royalties for West Virginia landowners.

South Dakota Republican Gov. Kristi Noem joined a wave of conservatives on social media defending country music star Jason Aldean from backlash over his new music video blasting Black Lives Matter rioters and daring them to “try that in a small town.”

“I am shocked by what I’m seeing in this country with people attempting to cancel this song and cancel Jason and his beliefs,” Noem posted in a video on Twitter Wednesday. “Him and Brittany are outspoken about their love for law and order and for their love of this country and I’m just grateful for them.”

Noem’s video comes in response to a music video for Aldean’s song “Try That in a Small Town” that has lyrics warning violent criminals, as well as those who disrespect law enforcement and the American flag, to “try that in a small town.”

Aldean sings, “Yeah, ya think you’re tough? Well, try that in a small town, see how far ya make it down the road. Around here, we take care of our own, you cross that line, it won’t take long for you to find out, I recommend you don’t.”

The song sparked criticism from liberal activists who claimed the song had racial undertones. One anti-gun activist claimed the song was about how “he and his friends will shoot you if you try to take their guns.”

Country Music Television announced they removed the song from their video rotation.

Aldean, 46, rejected the notion that the tune, which hit airwaves in May, referenced “race or points to it.”

“In the past 24 hours I have been accused of releasing a pro-lynching song (a song that has been out since May) and was subject to the comparison that I (direct quote) was not too pleased with the nationwide BLM protests,” Aldean shared with his nearly 8 million fans across social media.

‘SUCCESSION’ STAR BRIAN COX DISMISSES WOKE ‘SHAMING’ CULTURE: ‘USUALLY A BUNCH OF MILLENNIALS’

“These references are not only meritless, but dangerous. There is not a single lyric in the song that references race or points to it – and there isn’t a single video clip that isn’t real news footage – and while I can try and respect others to have their own interpretation of a song with music – this one goes too far.”

Noem said in her video that Aldean is welcome to perform anywhere in South Dakota, including on the front lawn of the governor’s residence. 

“I think a lot of times people who go out and fight every day on these important issues and have an opinion and remember the freedom and liberty that this country was founded on get persecuted for it and we’re seeing that right now with the Aldean’s and the songwriters that worked so hard on this,” Noem said.

“I just want them to know that we support them, we love them, thank you for writing a song that America can get behind,” she said.

Conservatives have largely rallied behind Aldean on social media, including a tweet from Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., who said, “I stand with Jason Aldean.”

Russia unleashed intense drone and missile attacks overnight Wednesday, damaging critical port infrastructure in southern Ukraine, including grain and oil terminals, and wounding at least 12 people, officials said.

The bombardment crippled significant parts of grain export facilities in Odesa and nearby Chornomorsk and destroyed 60,000 tons of grain, according to Ukraine’s Agriculture Ministry.

It came days after President Vladimir Putin pulled Russia out of its participation in the Black Sea Grain Initiative, a wartime deal that enabled Ukraine’s exports to reach many countries facing the threat of hunger.

It also followed a vow by Putin to retaliate against Kyiv for an attack Monday on the crucial Kerch Bridge linking Russia with the Crimean Peninsula, which the Kremlin illegally annexed in 2014.

RUSSIAN INTELLIGENCE AGENT PLEADS NOT GUILTY TO SUPPLYING AMERICAN-MADE ELECTRONICS, AMMUNITION TO RUSSIA

The Agriculture Ministry, citing experts, estimated it would take a year to restore the damaged facilities. The destroyed grain was supposed to have been loaded onto a vessel and sent through the grain corridor two months ago, the statement said.

“If we cannot export food, the population of the poorest countries will be on the brink of survival!” said Ukrainian Agriculture Minister Mykola Solskyi. “The price of grain will increase, and not all countries will be able to afford buying agricultural products, which means food prices will significantly rise: flour, cereals, meat.”

Wheat prices rose more than 2.5% on Tuesday and over 3% on Wednesday amid the Russian attacks in Odesa, a key hub for exporting grain, illustrating jitters in global markets after Moscow withdrew from the grain deal, threatening to worsen hunger in some parts of the globe. However, Wednesday’s trading price of $6.91 a bushel was still more than 85% below last year’s peak.

Video from warehouses elsewhere in Odesa showed firefighters extinguishing blazes with thick black smoke still billowing from the explosion.

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock tweeted that “Putin hasn’t just blown up the Black Sea Grain Initiative; now he has hit the port city of Odesa with a hail of bombs for the second consecutive night.”

“In doing that, he is robbing the world of any hope of Ukrainian grain. Every one of his bombs also hits the world’s poorest,” she said.

Baerbock pledged support for Ukraine in “turning over every stone to find alternative transport routes,” perhaps by inland waterways, rail and road.

Gov. Oleh Kiper said the attack included Oniks and Kh-22 missiles to hit grain and oil terminals. Debris from those that were shot down struck apartment buildings, seaside resorts and warehouses, sparking fires and injuring several people.

The Ukrainian president’s chief of staff, Andriy Yermak pleaded for more anti-aircraft systems.

Russian emergency officials in Crimea, meanwhile, said more than 2,200 people were evacuated from four villages because of a fire at a military facility.

The blaze forced the closure of an important highway, according to Sergey Aksyonov, the Moscow-appointed head of the peninsula. He didn’t specify a cause for the fire at the facility in Kirovsky district.

Across Ukraine, authorities reported that drones and missiles were sent against more regions than in recent days.

“A difficult night of air attacks for all of Ukraine,” said Serhii Popko, head of the Kyiv City Military Administration, in a statement on Telegram.

TRUMP DESCRIBES HOW HE COULD SOLVE RUSSIA-UKRAINE CONFLICT IN 24 HOURS

He said the attacks were especially fierce in Odesa for a second consecutive night. The Ukrainian army’s Operational Command South reported at least 12 civilians were wounded in the region.

The attacks on Odesa injured at least six people, including a 9-year-old boy, showering them with shattered glass and other debris. The remnants of a downed Kh-59 missile created a large crater in another part of the city, wounding three civilians and damaging several buildings.

Eight Iranian-made Shahed drones were also shot down in the wider Odesa region, where two warehouses containing tobacco and fireworks were reported damaged.

Russia also attacked Kyiv with Shahed drones without result, Popko said. Air defenses intercepted all the drones aimed at the capital and a preliminary investigation showed there were no casualties.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, meanwhile, welcomed Ireland’s Prime Minister Leo Varadkar to Kyiv, hours after the attacks, and thanked him for his support in the war that Russia launched in February 2022. In a statement published on Telegram, Zelenskyy noted that Ireland’s neutrality “does not mean indifference, and this is very important.”

The Russian attack in southern Ukraine was accompanied by strikes elsewhere in the country in the past 24 hours that killed one person and wounded 21 others.

The death occurred in the northeastern Kharkiv region, near the volatile Kupyansk area, while 10 people were injured in the shelling of seven cities in the Donetsk region, including Avdiivka, Mariinka and Chasiv Yar. Two people were wounded by shelling in the Mykolaiv region and one person was injured in the Kherson region.

Russian drone attacks in the Zhytomyr region damaged some infrastructure and private homes, but no casualties were reported, said Gov. Vitalii Bunechko.

Attacks also were reported in the Poltava and Kirovohrad regions.

The attacks were part of what Russia’s Defense Ministry described as a “strike of retribution” after Monday’s attack on the Kerch Bridge, a key span used for military and civilian supplies. The attack, apparently by maritime drones, damaged part of the roadway on the bridge but rail traffic continued.

Ukraine’s top security agency appeared to tacitly admit to a role in the attack, but stopped short of directly claiming responsibility, echoing their responses after a previous strike on the bridge in October 2022 that took months to repair.

Separately, South Africa’s president announced that Putin will not attend an economic summit next month in the country, which faced a legal quandary over whether to arrest the Russian leader on an International Criminal Court warrant related to Ukraine.

Although Moscow has dismissed the warrant and Russia doesn’t recognize the court’s authority, Putin has not traveled to any country that is a signatory to the court’s treaty since he was indicted by the ICC in March for war crimes relating to the abduction of children from Ukraine.

South African authorities had given strong hints they would have likely not executed the arrest warrant against Putin, but South Africa’s main opposition party has taken the government to court to try to compel it to arrest the Russian leader if he sets foot on South African territory.

Russia will be represented instead Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, according to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa’s office. All the other leaders will attend, it said.
