President Donald Trump's eldest child, Donald Trump Jr., has been vocal in defense of his father's pressure on Ukrainian officials to announce an investigation into the business dealings of former Vice President Joe Biden's son Hunter's business dealings in Ukraine.

Junior insists that Burisma Holdings, the energy company on which Hunter Biden is a board member, traded the board position for influence in the White House, giving Hunter Biden special treatment because of his last name.

Speaking of special treatment...

According to a report from ProPublica's Jake Pearson Anand Tumurtogoo, Don Jr. shot and killed an argali sheep in Western Mongolia during a hunting trip this past summer.

The argali are the largest sheep in the world with majestic curved horns that sometimes grow to six feet in length. The species is considered threatened under the Endangered Species Act, and permits to hunt sheep in the region are extremely rare and little is known about the process, other than it's usually issued to those with money and connections. According to ProPublica, only three permits have been issued in the region.

Being granted that permit retroactively is even rarer.

That seems to be what happened in Don Jr.'s case however, with officials granting his permit on September 2, after he'd left the region. Notably, Junior met with Mongolia's president while on the trip, though it isn't known what they discussed.

While no pictures of Trump Jr. with the animal's body were posted, a Republican donor reportedly accompanying Trump on the Trip, Kevin Small, was pictured with an argali carcass around the same time.

Trump Jr. commented on the photo "Amazing sheep and amazing guy."

Don Jr. are often criticized for their hobby of big game hunting, and this time was no different.





Trump Jr.'s frequent claims that Hunter Biden got special treatment because of his last name didn't help his case either.



The Trump administration has taken significant steps to weaken the Endangered Species Act.

Megyn Kelly Tells 'Homicidal Maniac' Lindsey Graham To 'STFU' About Iran War In Brutal Rant

Conservative pundit Megyn Kelly criticized South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham on Tuesday, calling him a "homicidal maniac" and demanding he "shut the f**k up" following his calls for intervention in Cuba and for President Donald Trump to join Israel in attacking the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon.

In particular, Graham urged Middle Eastern partners to do more to support the U.S. war effort, telling countries such as Saudi Arabia to “up your game.” He also criticized Spain after its leadership strongly opposed the attacks on Iran. Graham said Spain had “lost your way,” and called on the U.S. to cut ties with the country and withdraw its military air base from Spanish territory.

Lindsey Graham Dragged After His Latest Claim About Iran Directly Contradicts Trump's From Last Summer—And Oops

South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham was called out after he predicted on Fox News that the U.S. is "gonna obliterate" Iran's nuclear program by the time the recently-initiated war with the country is over, prompting critics to point out that he directly contradicted President Donald Trump's own claim from last summer.

Graham, discussing the war that began after the U.S., with the joint coordination of Israel, launched strikes against Iran on February 28, claimed Trump is “the right guy at the right time” because of Tehran’s supposed nuclear program.
