While relying on a consumer grade wireless gaming controller in a life or death situation seems like an act of breathtaking madness, my guess is that the Logitech gamepad wasn’t the problem here. I use a Logitech USB keyboard that cost me around $20 over fifteen years ago for all my PC repair work. It will probably outlive the cockroaches.

A chorus of Republican lawmakers raced Tuesday to condemn Hunter Biden’s plea agreement, in which the first son appears poised to avoid jail time for alleged tax and firearm violations.
As part of the deal, the 53-year-old will plead guilty to misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax for 2017 and 2018 and enter a pre-trial diversion on a felony gun possession charge, meaning that charge could be dropped if he meets certain requirements, per court documents filed in Delaware.
