Joe Biden’s America.
Democrat Senator Chris Coons was on CBS’s “Face the Nation” with Margaret Brennan on Sunday morning to discuss Biden’s border chaos.
With the Border crisis reaching epidemic levels, those who support the Biden regime will continue to defend failing policies at any cost.
“In our polling, only about 20 percent believe Biden’s policies would decrease the number of migrants. Are you worried that it’s just simply too late?” Brennan asked.
“No, I don’t think it is cause frankly I think the American people understand the difference between substance and showmanship,” Senator Coon said.
He even blamed the Republican party for the border.

The American people do understand very clearly that Joe Biden lacks substance and showmanship.
“You were critical when Donald Trump used this 212 act authority under his administration. Why do you support President Biden’s use of it?” Brennan asked.
“Because there is a stark difference in the values that President Biden and former President Trump bring to trying to address border security and immigration,” Senator Coon said.
He then continued to lie about President Trump.

There is a stark contrast-Trump wants to secure the border while Biden wants to leave it open for future Democrat voters.
Last week Joe Biden held a phony press conference at the White House talking about his executive order to secure the border. In reality it does not do anything useful to protect our country from invasion.

President Trump opened his rally in Las Vegas today with FIRE, slamming Joe Biden’s new open border executive order and roasting Biden for his incompetence.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Joe Biden announced an executive order introducing new asylum ‘restrictions’ that will still allow at least 1.8 million illegals to enter the US every year.
Trump slammed the executive order, saying, “It’s weak, it’s ineffective, it’s bullsh*t what he signed!” The crowd reacted by chanting “bullsh*t, bullsh*t, bullsh*t!”
Watch below:
Trump: We’re going to end the week and failed regime of Crooked Joe Biden, the worst president in the history of our country, and we’re gonna Make America Great Again. For three and a half years, the people of Nevada have had a front row seat to Joe Biden’s evil and criminal obliteration of our southern border. It was criminal what he’s done. Did you see the other day, he came out with little plan? Let’s make it a little bit tougher because he’s getting killed in the polls. We’re leading here by like 12 points, you know that. All we have to do is stop the steal, and we have it made, Just stop this steal. We can’t let that happen again. Last week, Crooked Joe signed an executive order that is pro-invasion, pro-child trafficking, pro-woman trafficking, pro-human trafficking, and pro-drug dealers. It’s a pro-drug dealer bill. It’s weak, it’s ineffective, it’s bullsh*t what he signed!
Crowd: bullsh*t, bullsh*t, bullsh*t!
More than 15 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age males – have invaded the US on Biden’s watch.
Joe Biden took 94 executive actions in his first 100 days in office to destroy the border.
Now he’s acting like the savior with his new ‘asylum restrictions’ – only asylum is STILL AVAILABLE to thousands of illegal aliens every single day released into the US.
Trump also slammed Biden's mental fitness and called on him to take a cognitive test as well as a drug test before the debates.
Trump has repeatedly called for Biden to be drug tested before each debate, claiming that he was “high” during the State of the Union. However, as The Gateway Pundit reported, the Biden campaign has refused to confirm or deny whether or not Joe Biden plans to use drugs to enhance his debate performance and has not agreed to take a drug test.
More below:
Trump: Millions of people will continue pouring in and they're coming right through the border like they've never come through before. What he signed means nothing. In fact, it makes it easier. In my opinion, it opens the border still further. We have people coming into our country. We're gonna end up making and I say it all the time: November 5 will be the most important day in the history of our country. If Joe Biden truly wanted to sign an executive order to stop the invasion right now, all he needs to do is say “I hereby immediately reinstate every single border policy of a gentleman named Donald J. Trump.” You know, he doesn't need anything. He could have done this; he's a little late by the way. Number one, he's late. Number two, it's meaningless what he signs. It’s just a PR ploy as usual. It's disinformation, misinformation, talk. They talk, talk, talk as our country goes down the tubes. Less than four years ago, I handed Crooked Joe the strongest, most secure border in the history of our country. We never had a border like that. We built 571 miles of border wall. It was unbelievable. We ended all catch and release. We had the Remain in Mexico, Safe Third Country, and then we had also Title 42.
Under the Trump Administration, if you crossed our border illegally, we caught you and sent you back from where you came. It was very simple. We had the greatest— think of it, all he had to do is leave my people in place, leave everybody in place, and he wouldn't be going through this right now. I think it's one of his many big problems. I think the Afghan situation was the most embarrassing day in the history of our country, actually. He has a lot of bad days. I could name them but we don't have enough time. We only have a few hours.
Under Biden, the invasion is just a disaster what's happened. It's never happened like this. In less than four years, Crooked Joe has imported more illegal aliens into our country than at any other time in the history of our country, times maybe 50. There's never been anything like this happening to our country. They're changing the fabric of our country. They're destroying our country. They're doing things that are unthinkable. This open border; so many bad things, but this open border situation where you're allowing millions and millions of people to flood our country, we can handle it. No country could handle it. It's not sustainable. The entire world is emptying their prisons and jails, insane asylums, and mental institutions. They're emptying them out into your state, but they're emptying out into all 50 states. They're coming in and they're— There's no such thing as a border state anymore. That border is so meaningless. They just walk right through. They go right through the so-called border states and they end up in Iowa, they end up in Idaho.
Remember when Joe said it's great to be in Idaho and he was in Iowa? He always does that. If I ever did that, it would be over. They'd say that's the end of his political career. He's cognitively impaired. No, you know, I had a second test. I aced it. I aced both of them, not easy to ace. Biden should have a cognitive test number one. They say it's unconstitutional. That's a good excuse. He should have a cognitive test, and before the debate in two weeks, he should take a drug test because I'm willing to take one.

“‘The election was a rigged election,’ oh let’s indict him for saying that. Whereas you got guys like this, you got guys that kill people and they’re fine and they’re just fine,” Trump said.
“We’re screwed up as a country, and we’re gonna unscrew it very quickly,” Trump said.

Here are the five women who crushed the spirits of millions of Americans after their selfish, jealous decision to exclude Caitlin Clark from the Olympic Games.
On Saturday, it was announced that women’s basketball sensation Caitlin Clark would not be included on the US Women’s Basketball team in the 2024 Olympics.
The greatest collegiate player in history, who broke nearly every men’s and women’s basketball scoring and assist records while at the University of Iowa, was excluded from the Olympic team.
Pot-smoking Brittney Griner, who has only played in one game and scored 11 points this year, made the team.
41-year-old Diana Taurasi made the team again. She has already participated in FIVE Olympic Games.
NO CURRENT PLAYER selected for this on the Olympic team has scored more 3-pointers this year in the WNBA than Caitlin Clark.
And only one woman on the Olympic team has more assists than Clark this WNBA Season.
Caitlin Clark is also in the top 8 in scoring.
Caitlin Clark is beating most of the selected players in most categories.
And NO ONE can consistently fill arenas like Caitlin Clark at home and away.
Earlier today JoeHoft.com identified the five women behind this insane and outrageous decision!
Caitlin Clark was asked about the Olympic Committee's decision and she showed nothing but class - as she always does.
This is just heartbreaking.
Clueless Reporter Chloe Peterson: Caitlin, what was your reaction when you saw the USA team may not be on the roster from out?
Caitlin Clark: I think I'm excited for the girls that are on the team. I know it's the most competitive team in the world, and I know it could have gone either way. Me being on the team, me not being on the team. I'm excited for them. I'm going to be reading them on to win gold. I was a kid that grew up watching the Olympics. So it'll be fun to watch them.
Chloe Peterson: What was your level of disappointment not hearing your on the roster.
Caitlin Clark: Honestly, no disappointment. I think it just gives you something to work for. That's a dream. Hopefully, one day I can be there. I think it's just a little more motivation. You remember that. And hopefully in four years, when four years comes back around, I can be there.

Joe Biden’s America.
DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was on “This Week” on ABC with host Martha Raddatz to discuss Joe Biden’s executive order regarding the securing of the border.
Even the mainstream media is now finally beginning to question the Biden regime’s ineffectiveness.
“We have a plan. We are executing on our plan and we will succeed,” Mayorkas said in 2021.
“That was three years ago, since then 6.5 million migrants have been apprehended along the southern border, it’d be very hard to call that a success,” Martha Raddatz responded to Mayorkas’ 2021 claim.

Mayorkas is full of excuses. The Biden regime had over 3 years to secure the border and have intentionally left it wide open.
“This has been in place for 5 days now. What has the impact been? How many migrants have been turned away between those points of entry? Martha Raddatz asked.
“We are at a very early stage. Implementation as you have noted has just begun,” Mayorkas responded.

The American people don’t want to hear anymore of these excuses. The Biden regime did nothing for 3 years. As a result, 10 to 12 million illegals have entered the US since January 2021.
Last week, Joe Biden held a phony press conference at the White House talking about his executive order to secure the border. More lies.

The Las Vegas Police Protective Association (LVPPA) has officially endorsed former President Donald Trump for the 2024 presidential election.
The endorsement was announced by LVPPA President Steven Grammas just hours before Trump was set to address a massive crowd of supporters.
The rally, which took place in Sunset Park, Las Vegas, saw thousands of attendees lining up as early as 6 am, demonstrating unwavering support for the former president.
This event marks President Trump’s first public rally since his controversial conviction in the politically motivated sham trial in New York.
Addressing the crowd, President Grammas emphasized the importance of strong leadership to back law enforcement efforts across the country.
“We in law enforcement can’t endure another four years under Joe Biden,” Grammas said. “We need robust support from our national government and our state government. Thankfully, here in Nevada, our governor is none other than former Sheriff Joe Lombardo.”
Grammas continued with a powerful declaration of support for Trump’s candidacy.
“The last thing I have for you all from the Trump campaign — they don’t know this yet — but right here I hold the official endorsement from the 4,000 commissioned officers of the LVPPA, showing our 100% support to Donald Trump for President. Thank you all. Please be safe. Trump 2024.”

Joe Biden on Sunday spoke to reporters at the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in Belleau, Northern France.
Joe and Nurse Jill laid a wreath at the WWI American cemetery. Of course, Jill had to lead the way as her invalid husband shuffled along.
Biden stopped to chat with reporters at the cemetery. As usual, Biden made it about himself – and Ukraine.
He told reporters that being in France reminded him of his uncle Bosie whom he has repeatedly claimed was eaten by cannibals in New Guinea.
Biden also brought up his deceased son Beau.
Beau Biden died of brain cancer at Walter Reed in Bethesda, Maryland in 2015.
Joe Biden is not a Gold Star dad.
At one point Joe Biden confused Ukraine and Iraq.
“The idea we had to wait all those months just to get the money for Iraq that we, because we’re waiting — I mean, it’s just, it’s just, it’s not who we are!” Biden said.

This is President Trump’s first campaign-hosted rally since he was found guilty in the New York show trial.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the jury returned a verdict in Alvin Bragg’s lawfare ‘hush money’ trial last Thursday: Guilty on all 34 counts! The sentencing was set for July 11.
“I’m a political prisoner!” Trump said after the verdict in his rigged trial with far-left jurors, a far-left conflicted Judge, and politically motivated prosecutors was announced.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg indicted Trump in April 2023 on 34 felony counts related to ‘hush payments’ he made to Stormy Daniels.
Trump was accused of paying porn star Stormy Daniels, AKA Stephanie Clifford, ‘hush payments’ through his then-attorney Michael Cohen in a scheme to silence her and stop the story about their alleged affair from being published in the National Enquirer.
The jury deliberations began on Wednesday after Judge Merchan, whose daughter has received MILLIONS of dollars consulting the Democrats who want to take down Trump, instructed them to choose among the three predicate crimes Trump supposedly committed. Judge Merchan told jurors they did not have to agree on a crime. This is unheard of in US history. The jury only had to agree that something bad happened, but not on what that something is. This, of course, is completely unconstitutional.
However, this isn’t slowing President Trump down. In just hours following the verdict, Trump raised MORE THAN $34 MILLION for his campaign.
It was later revealed that Trump raised $52.8 million in the 24 hours after he was found guilty.
And on Friday, while speaking at a Turning Point Action rally in Arizona, Trump told the crowd that he had raised “almost $400 Million” in the week after the verdict in his “rigged trial.”

Mayor Eric Adams, in a typical display of arrogance and deflection, claimed he had “no idea” about the grand jury proceedings investigating his shady campaign fundraising activities.
“I don’t know, I’m not a lawyer. I’m Eric Adams — the mayor! Ex-cop!” The mayor dodged, addressing reporters as he made a scene at the 39th Annual 116th Street Festival in East Harlem on Saturday.
“No idea. No idea. No idea,” he added as his team shot down further questions from the media.
Adams, 63, arrived two hours late to the Latin Festival just one day after The Post reported that the grand jury was reviewing evidence in the FBI probe — likely for the purpose of issuing subpoenas in the case.
At least one person connected to the mayor was served a subpoena linked to the investigation, sources said.
Adams maintained that he was unaware of the recent developments, even though he has often admitted to being an active reader of The Post.
“They don’t tell me stuff. Let it follow the process … Speak to the counsel. The counsel will explain to you the normal process,” he said.
The mayor — in a jolly mood despite the looming investigation — did not speak again on the topic before taking the stage for a few brief minutes.
His former rival, Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa, didn’t hold back on the scandal-plagued mayor.
“The walls are closing in,” declared the Republican 2021 mayoral candidate at the festival, signaling Adams’ impending doom.
“Swagger man has no plan to get out of this. He’s not going to the White House. He originally thought he was. He may be going to the big house in chains and shackles.
“You have people in the administration who may have decided it’s time to become a confidential informer. Cause they don’t want to go down on the ship. That’s how the feds get you. They get the little fish but they want the whale. And everyone knows they want Eric Adams.”

Sliwa referenced rumors that a former City Hall aid — who was suspended for inappropriate conduct amid the federal probe — had flipped on Adams and was working as an FBI informant.
Ex-director of protocol in the Office for International Affairs Rana Abbasova’s New Jersey home was also raided by the FBI as part of the federal corruption investigation.
Adam’s top campaign fundraiser Brianna Suggs and former Turkish Airlines executive Cenk Ocal, who worked on the mayor’s transition team, were also subjected to home searches.
“All these people are not gonna protect him. They’re gonna give him up,” Sliwa added.
The FBI is investigating whether Adams’ staff interacted with the Turkish government to steer foreign donations into his campaign and if he ordered the FDNY to expedite permits for a new Turkish Consulate that had previously failed safety inspections.
As of now, neither Adams nor any member of his campaign has been formally implicated in any wrongdoing.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have confirmed that Abdallah Aljamal, an Al Jazeera reporter and photojournalist, was actively holding three Israeli hostages within his residence in central Gaza’s Nuseirat.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that four hostages, identified as Noa Argamani (25), Almog Meir Jan (21), Andrey Kozlov (27), and Shlomi Ziv (40), were rescued on Saturday in a daring IDF operation.
Noa Argamani was abducted while attending the Nova music festival on October 7. The young woman was reunited with her father and her terminally ill mother after being held captive for nearly eight months.
The IDF released a statement following the successful operation, “It has been 245 days since Noa hugged her father and her mother who is terminally ill. It has been 245 days since she was dancing with her friends at the Nova festival. For 245 days, Noa was held captive by Hamas terrorists who only seek to cause pain and suffering. Today, Hamas’ torment of Noa came to an end as she was reunited with her loved ones.”

On Sunday, the Israeli military confirmed that Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov, and Shlomi Ziv were held in the home of Abdallah Aljamal, a reporter for Al Jazeera and a confirmed Hamas terrorist, in central Gaza’s Nuseirat.
According to the IDF, Aljamal held the hostages alongside his own family members.
The Times of Israel reported that Al Jazeera denied claims that the three hostages were held at an employee’s home.
The news outlet reported:
Qatari news network Al Jazeera is stridently denying any link to Gaza-based journalist Abdallah Aljamal, amid unverified rumors that hostage Noa Argamani had been held at his home in central Gaza’s Nuseirat.
According to various rumors, some of which have been picked up by Hebrew-language media with varying levels of credulity, Argamani was held at the home of Dr. Ahmed Aljamal and his son Abdallah. They also claim that Abdallah is an employee of Al-Jazeera.
The reports base the claim on Rami Abdu, head of the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, who tweeted that soldiers climbed into the Aljamals’ home during the raid and killed several members of the family, including Ahmed and Abdallah. He notes that Abdallah is spokesman for the Hamas-run labor ministry in Gaza and has contributed to several news outlets in the past.
“This man is not from Al-Jazeera, and he did not work for Al-Jazeera at all, and he is not listed as working for Al-Jazeera neither now nor in the past,” al-Jazeera Jerusalem bureau chief Omar al-Walid says. “We do not know him, and all the rumors that have been spread are empty of content and not true at all.”
However, the IDF asserted that the suspect works for Al Jazeera, providing evidence by posting the reporter’s own biography from the Al Jazeera website.
“Journalist” Abdallah Aljamal was a Hamas terrorist holding Almog, Andrey and Shlomi hostage in his family’s home in Nuseirat. No press vest can make him innocent of the crimes he has committed. Al Jazeera what’s this terrorist doing on your website?” IDF wrote on X.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Honest Reporting, a watchdog organization steadfast in its mission to “expose anti-Israel media bias” within global journalism, has unearthed unsettling evidence against several photojournalists.
These photographers, previously known for their contributions to far-left news agencies such as The Associated Press (AP) and Reuters, have also been linked to freelance work for CNN and the New York Times.
These leftist media featured photos from reporters who were effectively embedded with Hamas terrorists amidst their killing spree.
One such journalist, Hassan Eslaiah, captured images and video footage while collaborating with Hamas during the massacre.
It was also reported that Eslaiah was seen in a previously unseen photo with a Hamas leader, Yahya.
His images were featured by several far-left media outlets, including the AP, CNN, the New York Times, Reuters, and the Wall Street Journal.
The most chilling revelation is that Eslaiah was with the Hamas operatives during their onslaught at Kfar Azza’s kibbutz.
In response to the investigation by Honest Reporting, far-left CNN took measures to distance itself from Eslaiah, stating to Israeli outlet Ynet that while they found no immediate fault with his work, they would suspend their ties with him pending further investigation.
“We are aware of the article and photo concerning Hassan Eslaiah, a freelance photojournalist who has worked with a number of international and Israeli outlets,” CNN wrote in a statement, according to Ynet.
“While we have not at this time found reason to doubt the journalistic accuracy of the work he has done for us, we have decided to suspend all ties with him,” the network added.

In a press conference that should have focused on the Boston Celtics’ strategies for Game 2 of the NBA Finals against the Dallas Mavericks, the discourse took an unexpected detour into identity politics, thanks to a question from Vince Goodwill of Yahoo Sports.
Mazzulla, however, was not playing along.
The question posed to Joe Mazzulla was loaded, aimed not at the game but at stirring racial narratives. Goodwill asked, “For the first time since 1975, this is the NBA Finals with two black head coaches. Given the plight sometimes of black head coaches in the NBA, do you think this is a significant moment? Do you take pride in this? How do you view this, or do you not see it at all?”
According to Yahoo Sports, “For the first time since 1975, the NBA Finals has a Black head coach on each sideline, with Dallas’ Jason Kidd facing off against Boston’s Joe Mazzulla. Al Attles (Golden State) and K.C. Jones (Washington) did it last in a series the Warriors won 4-0.”
The news outlet added, “Kidd and NBA commissioner Adam Silver both talked about the importance of the accomplishment and the symbolism it can represent for the forever-long struggle of Black coaches in these leadership positions and what it means to them personally.”
In response to this question, Mazzulla silenced the room with his simple yet profound response, “I wonder how many of those have been Christian coaches.”
This response effectively silenced the room, showcasing Mazzulla’s refusal to engage in an attempt to propagate a race-baiting narrative.
It’s clear that for Mazzulla, what matters most is not the color of a coach’s skin but their ability to lead a team and guide them to victory.

The US officially began its forced withdrawal of troops from Niger on Friday.
This comes after the Biden administration agreed in May to remove the remaining US troops from Niger by September. The approximately 1,000 troops will leave the two US military bases in the country to the new regime.
Russian forces are already in the country and actually share the same base as US troops.
This is one of Joe Biden’s greatest foreign policy failures among many and is, of course, being ignored by the US fake news media conglomerate.
The BBC reported on the recent deal in Niger. It appears the Biden regime paid off the regime to save face as they were forced out of the country. You can bet that money was exchanged for this communication.
The US and Niger have agreed that American troops will leave the country “no later” than 15 September, they announced in a joint statement on Sunday.
They said the two countries had “reached a disengagement agreement to effect the withdrawal of U.S. forces, which has already begun”.
…
The military junta which seized power last year has already ordered French troops to leave, while moving closer to Russia.
The statement commended the “joint sacrifices of Nigerien and U.S. forces in the fight against terrorism”, adding that the withdrawal would not affect the continuation of US-Niger relations.
“The United States and Niger are committed to ongoing diplomatic dialogue to define the future of their bilateral relations,” it read.
That was a complete lie. The US was forced out. Russians are already on the US base.

The Gateway Pundit has known about this American humiliation since April. In case you missed our previous reporting, here is a recap.
Molly Phee, Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, did a bang up job in Niger. Now US forces are being told to leave the country pivotal to US national defense.
Nigerien Prime Minister Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine recently spoke to reporters and blamed US State Department official Molly Phee of threatening the current leaders while negotiating US military presence in the country.
The Nigerian leader blamed Phee for the complete breakdown in relations. Zeine described his reaction to Molly Phee when she came to lecture the Nigerien leaders in March, “You have come here to threaten us in our country. That is unacceptable. And you have come here to tell us with whom we can have relationships, which is also unacceptable. And you have done it all with a condescending tone and a lack of respect.
In April we learned about Joe Biden’s most recent foreign policy disaster in Niger, Africa. US troops are trapped in the country allegedly without water and medicine at the time. The Army was likely hiding this to protect itself from the embarrassment. Deployed Americans were in limbo and unable to do their jobs and the Biden State Department was completely outmaneuvered once again.
Thanks to brilliant negotiating skills by Biden appointed diplomats US military will leave Niger and leave behind a $100 million airbase to the current anti-American rulers.
The USA confirms it will pull out of Niger.

On top of that news broke last week that Russian troops have now entered the US airbase in the nation’s capital, Niamey.
The Russians will cohabitate with the remaining Americans at the US Airbase 101.
This is another humiliation of US troops by Joe Biden.
Now we find out it was US diplomat working for Joe Biden who destroyed this important relationship with Niger.
Via Stars and Stripes.
A crucial military relationship between the United States and its closest West African ally, the country of Niger, ruptured this spring after a visiting U.S. official made threats during last-ditch negotiations over whether American troops based there would be allowed to remain, according to the country’s prime minister.
In an exclusive interview, Prime Minister Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine put the blame for the breakdown squarely on the United States, accusing American officials of trying to dictate which countries Niger could partner with and failing to justify the U.S. troop presence, now scheduled to end in the coming months. Niger has been central to efforts to contain a growing Islamist insurgency in West Africa.
The rift between the former allies has created an opportunity for Russia, which has moved quickly to deepen its relationship with Niger, dispatching troops to the capital, Niamey, last month to train the Nigerien military and supplying a new air defense system. Russian and U.S. troops now occupy opposite ends of an air base.
After a military coup d’état ousted Niger’s democratically elected president last year, the United States froze security support as required by U.S. law and paused counterterrorism activities, which had involved intelligence gathering on regional militant activities from a massive drone base in the country’s north. The United States has kept more than 1,000 military personnel in place while negotiating with Niger over their status and urging the junta to begin restoring democracy…
Stars and Stripes then reveals the genius in the Biden State Department who destroyed US relations with Niger and how she did it.
He said the Nigerien leaders took particular umbrage at remarks by Molly Phee, the State Department’s top official for African affairs, who he said had urged the government during a March visit to Niamey to refrain from engaging with Iran and Russia in ways objectionable to Washington if Niger wanted to continue its security relationship with the United States. He also said Phee had further threatened sanctions if Niger pursued a deal to sell uranium to Iran.
“When she finished, I said, ‘Madame, I am going to summarize in two points what you have said,’” recounted Zeine, who has led negotiations with the United States. “First, you have come here to threaten us in our country. That is unacceptable. And you have come here to tell us with whom we can have relationships, which is also unacceptable. And you have done it all with a condescending tone and a lack of respect.”

Which brings us to today.
Here is the nonsensical BS the Department of Defense Africom released on Friday.
The U.S. Department of Defense and the Nigerien Ministry of National Defense of the Republic of Niger announce that the withdrawal of U.S. forces and assets from Niger has progressed from initial preparations to redeployment. This significant transition began with the departure of a U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster III from Air Base 101 in Niamey on June 7, 2024.
This flight exemplifies the productive cooperation between the U.S. and Nigerien armed forces through the Joint Disengagement Commission, which is tasked with overseeing and coordinating the orderly and safe withdrawal of U.S. forces from Niger.
Through the Joint Disengagement Commission’s cooperative and transparent efforts, a small contingent of U.S. personnel has arrived in Niger to provide logistical support, ensuring the efficient withdrawal of remaining forces and assets from Air Bases 101 and 201. Concurrently, some U.S. forces have already redeployed from Niger to their home stations as their mission contributions concluded.
Both U.S. and Nigerien officials are dedicated to completing a safe, orderly, and responsible withdrawal by September 15, 2024. They emphasize their commitment to the protection and security of American forces during this process.
The U.S. Department of Defense and the Nigerien Ministry of National Defense recognize the joint sacrifices made by both nations’ forces in the fight against terrorism. They commend each other’s efforts in strengthening the Nigerien Armed Forces and express a shared commitment to continued cooperation in areas of mutual interest.
This withdrawal of U.S. forces will not have an impact on the ongoing development relations between the United States and Niger. Both countries remain committed to sustained diplomatic dialogue to shape the future of their bilateral relations.

Joe Biden on Sunday spoke to reporters at the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in Belleau, Northern France.
Biden told reporters that being in France reminded him of his uncle Bosie whom he has repeatedly claimed was eaten by cannibals in New Guinea.
Of course, Joe Biden had to make the visit to the Aisne-Marne American cemetery about himself.
“You know, I don’t want to make this personal but when I show up at a military site where veterans are buried, it brings back memories of hearing my grandfather and my mother talk about the loss of their son and brother in the South Pacific and I think about my son Beau,” Biden said.
Beau Biden died of brain cancer at Walter Reed in Bethesda, Maryland in 2015.

Biden has repeatedly told the same dubious story about his uncle Ambrose Finnegan, AKA, “Uncle Bosey” being eaten by cannibals after his WWII plane was shot down over New Guinea.
“My uncle Bosey he was Army Air Corps before the Air Force came along. He flew those single-engine planes as reconnaissance over war zones and he got shot down in New Guinea and they never found the body because there used to be a lot of cannibals – for real – in that part of New Guinea,” Biden said to steelworkers in Pittsburgh in April.

Of course, this never happened.

Biden made up most of the war story.
Unsurprisingly, Biden has made up most of this war story.
Lt. Ambrose Finnegan was a ground crew member and ordinance officer, not a reconnaissance pilot.
In 1944, Finnegan was the passenger of an A-20 (a twin-engine, not single-engine plane) that ditched, it wasn't shot down.… https://t.co/xxIb5dreOB pic.twitter.com/xrn1WuAbTh

The U.S. Navy terminated the command of Captain Michel Brandt, the female commander of the amphibious transport dock USS Somerset, less than a year into her tenure, the Navy Times reported.
The official statement released on Thursday cited a “loss of confidence in her ability to lead” but did not provide specific reasons for Capt. Michel Brandt’s dismissal.
“Rear Adm. Christopher Stone, Commander, Expeditionary Strike Group 7 (ESG 7), relieved Capt. Michel Brandt as commanding officer of the San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock USS Somerset (LPD 25), June 6, 2024, due to loss of confidence in her ability to lead the crew,” the statement reads.
Capt. Tate Robinson has been appointed as the interim commanding officer.
“Capt. Tate Robinson will replace Capt. Brandt as commanding officer until a permanent relief arrives. Capt. Brandt will be administratively assigned to Commander, Naval Surface Force, U.S. Pacific Fleet.”
“Navy commanding officers are held to high standards of personal and professional conduct. They are expected to uphold the highest standards of responsibility, reliability and leadership, and the Navy holds them accountable when they fall short of those standards,” the statement added.
The Navy has been vocal about its commitment to these initiatives, even releasing a comprehensive DEI program in 2021.
Last year, the Air Force and the Army and Navy missed their recruiting targets. This underperformance, according to Congressman Matt Gaetz, is symptomatic of deeper issues relating to prioritizing Diversity, Equity, Inclusion (DEI).
Earlier this year, the US Navy lowered its enlistment standards, this time removing the high school diploma or GED requirement.
This is the second time in recent memory that the Navy has lowered requirements as it continues to fail to meet recruitment goals.
Military.com reports:
The decision follows a move in December 2022 to bring in a larger number of recruits who score very low on the Armed Services Qualification Test. Both are fairly rare steps that the other military services largely avoid or limit, even though they are all finding it increasingly difficult to attract the dwindling number of young people who can meet the military’s physical, mental and moral standards.
Under the new plan, Navy recruits without an education credential will be able to join as long as they score 50 or above on the qualification test, which is out of 99. The last time the service took individuals without education credentials was in 2000.

House Republicans, led by Subcommittee on Oversight Chairman Barry Loudermilk, are now demanding full disclosure of communications between ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson and the office of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, The Daily Caller first reported.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Congressman Barry Loudermilk obtained a transcript of the presidential motorcade driver’s interview that refutes the January 6 ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson’s claim that Trump tried to grab the steering wheel and commandeer the limo on January 6.
According to the secret service driver, he wanted to quickly debunk Cassidy Hutchinson’s lies about Trump’s behavior in the ‘beast’ on January 6, but Liz Cheney and others on the sham J6 committee “rebuffed” him and allowed Hutchinson’s lies to dominate the headlines.
Just The News reported:
House investigators have obtained evidence showing that former President Donald Trump’s Secret Service driver wanted to quickly refute testimony from Cassidy Hutchinson alleging a struggle in the presidential limousine during the Capitol riots but the Democrat-led January 6 committee rebuffed him for months.
The evidence was confirmed to Just the News both by Rep. Barry Loudermilk, the chairman of the House subcommittee that is investigating the Jan. 6 tragedy now for Republicans, and a transcript of the driver’s interview that was conducted months after he first offered to testify.
Loudermilk on Tuesday evening decried the delay by the Democrat-led Jan. 6 committee, saying it kept Americans in the dark for months ahead of the 2022 midterm elections that there was firsthand testimony refuting Hutchinson’s sensational hearsay narrative that Trump tried to violently commandeer his Secret Service limousine on Jan. 6, 2021, to take it to the Capitol.
House Republicans in March released a report that blew up Liz Cheney’s J6 ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony on Trump’s actions on January 6.
“None of the White House Employees corroborated Hutchinson’s sensational story about President Trump lunging for the steering wheel of the Beast. However, some witnesses did describe the President’s mood after the speech at the Ellipse,” the report read.
The driver of Trump’s motorcade (the beast) refuted Cassidy Hutchinson’s under-oath claims that Trump grabbed the steering wheel and physically assaulted a Secret Service agent.
“The driver testified that he specifically refuted the version of events as recounted by Hutchinson. The driver of the SUV testified that he “did not see him reach [redacted]. [President Trump] never grabbed the steering wheel. I didn’t see him, you know, lunge to try to get into the front seat at all.” Despite the driver of the President’s SUV testifying under oath that the Hutchinson story was false, the Select Committee chose to validate and promote Hutchinson’s version of the story as fact. The Select Committee hid the driver’s full testimony and only favorably mentioned his testimony in its Final Report, it did not release the full transcript.” the report read.
In June 2022, The J6 Committee’s ‘surprise witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson, testified Trump got into “the beast” after his speech at the Ellipse on January 6, 2021, with the belief that he would be driven to the Capitol.
According to Hutchinson, who received this information from Tony Ornato, the Assistant Director for the Secret Service, Trump grew angry after he was informed that he was being driven back to the West Wing.
According to Ornato, Trump shouted, “I’m the f*cking president! Take me up to the Capitol now!”
Hutchinson alleged that at this point Trump reached up to the driver, grabbed the steering wheel and tried to commandeer the presidential limo.
Now, the Subcommittee has already acquired messages indicating that Willis’ office made attempts to contact Hutchinson.
However, the content of these exchanges and the extent of information shared remains uncertain.
Below is the letter from Loudermilk to Willis:
“I write to you today to request your cooperation in my investigation into the security failures at the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021. Based on information recovered by this Subcommittee, we have reason to believe that your office interviewed Ms. Cassidy Hutchinson, who also provided testimony to the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol (“Select Committee”). The testimony provided by Ms. Hutchinson in the course of your investigation is relevant to our evaluation of her testimony and the direct implications her testimony has on the security of the United States Capitol.
As Chairman of the Subcommittee, I have jurisdiction over the safety and security of the United States Capitol.1 The Subcommittee is also the successor of the records of the Select Committee. 2 It has been made evident that the Select Committee failed to turn over all their records related to their investigation, despite House rules requiring them to.3 Furthermore, as the Subcommittee continues our investigation, we must assess the truthfulness of the testimony that the Select Committee relied heavily on in their investigation. It is therefore imperative that this Subcommittee review any and all records and materials in Fulton County’s possession that were acquired from both Ms. Hutchinson and the Select Committee.
As part of the Subcommittee’s investigation, we have discovered a letter from you, in your capacity as Fulton County District Attorney, to the Select Committee dated December 17, 2021.4 In this letter, you requested access to any Select Committee records relevant to your office’s investigation into President Trump’s actions to challenge the 2020 presidential election, including “recordings and transcripts of witness interviews and depositions, electronic and print records of communications, and records of travel.”5 Politico also reported that your staff at the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office met with and had multiple phone calls with the Select Committee.6 In the Select Committee’s Final Report, they confirm their close relationship with your office when they wrote that they are “aware that both the U.S. Department of Justice and the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office have already obtained information relevant to these matters, including from the Committee directly.” I now seek the same cooperation from you and your office in our ongoing investigation.
This Subcommittee obtained evidence that your staff in the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office made numerous attempts to reach out to Cassidy Hutchinson to seek her testimony. Specifically, individuals from your office reached out to Ms. Hutchinson’s mother in an attempt to reach Ms. Hutchinson. The Subcommittee is evaluating the reliability of Ms. Hutchinson’s testimony, which was heavily relied on by the Select Committee, and the findings related to the security of the United States Capitol, it is crucial for us to review any documents and records you have provided by or obtained from Ms. Hutchinson.
Accordingly, I ask that you respond to the following no later than June 20, 2024.
1. Did anyone affiliated with the Fulton County District Attorney’s communicate with Ms. Hutchinson at any time between January 1, 2021, and today, June 5, 2024?
If the answer to this question is yes, please provide the names of the individuals who communicated with Ms. Hutchinson and the dates of these communications. Additionally, please provide my staff copies of these communications to aid in our investigation.”

Whitmer conveniently lost her connection as CNN’s Dana Bash asked her about Hunter Biden’s criminal gun trial.
“[Hunter Biden] is on trial for possessing a firearm while under the influence of illegal drugs which was against the law,” Dana Bash said. “Republican Lindsey Graham says that an average American would not have been prosecuted for this..”
“Dana, are you there?” Whitmer asked.
“Yes, governor, can you hear me?” Dana Bash asked Whitmer as she looked around.
“Okay, it sounds like the governor can’t hear me,” Dana Bash said.

In September Hunter Biden was indicted on federal gun charges. He was indicted in a Delaware court on three counts related to his possession of a firearm while using drugs.
Hallie Biden, Hunter Biden’s dead brother’s wife-turned-girlfriend, testified at Hunter’s criminal federal gun trial on Thursday.
Hunter Biden smoked ping-pong ball-sized crack rocks according to Hallie Biden.
According to text messages sent to Hallie Biden, Hunter Biden set up a drug deal with “Mookie” one day after he illegally purchased his gun on October 12, 2018.

Maria Bartiromo grilled Oversight Chairman James Comer this morning on Sunday Morning Futures.
The FOX News host demanded to know where the criminal referrals were?
Maria Bartiromo: Where are the criminal referrals for Hunter Biden and James Biden over perjury, for lying to Congress? Where are the criminal referrals, if that’s all true? Where are the criminal referrals for FARA, for money laundering, for corruption, for influence peddling? Where are those?
Rep. James Comer: Yeah. Well, we’re just beginning, Maria. A lot of those crimes that the Bidons have committed, the statute of limitations has run out. That was one of the complaints that the Irish whistleblower said when we had them testify in our committee. But we’re going to deal with those, and we’re going to deal with Joe Biden. Remember, this is an investigation of Joe Biden. Hunter Biden, Jim Biden, Eric Sherwin, Devin Archer, these are all witnesses in an investigation of Joe Biden. This was always about Joe Biden. We’re going to do everything we can to hold Hunter Biden and all the different shady associates accountable. This is just the beginning. But the next step will be accountability for Joe Biden.
I think everyone that’s kept up with this investigation will be very eager to see what the next step is. This is the first step, these criminal referrals. Everything that we refer to the Department of Justice is within the statute of limitations. In fact, there’s five years statute of limitations. So if Merrick Garland Department of Justice doesn’t take this up in an inappropriate manner, then the next administration and a new Attorney General certainly can. The investigation has already been done.
With these criminal referrals, we published a 60-page report of nothing hard evidence that no one has made a comment disputing anything we provided in the evidence.
Maria Bartiromo: Okay, so these criminal referrals will stand for five years beyond potentially Merrick Garland’s time there and Biden’s DOJ. Are you saying that we could expect a criminal referral against Joe Biden for money laundering? Is that what you just said?
Rep. James Comer: Well, I think that it’s no secret Joe Biden has committed many crimes, and I think that you’re going to see a report very soon. That report is imminent. That’ll probably be an interim report that updates everyone on the crimes that Biden and his administration have committed throughout this investigation and through the years of the Obama Biden administration.
Maria Bartiromo: You have subpoena power. Why not subpoena these people as well? Put them in the hot seat.
Rep. James Comer: We’ve subpoenaed all the associates. The only person to is Joe Biden. As you know, it’s hard to subpoena a sitting President, or the Democrats would have done that to Donald Trump. But I think that what we’ve done in all of our depositions and interviews has been very substantive, and it’s going to be very useful in accountability.
Does anyone really believe Republicans are going to submit criminal referrals against the Biden Crime Family?

A populist AfD politician was stabbed in Mannheim, Germany earlier this week after confronting Antifa goons who were ripping down his posters.
The violent leftists are threatened with the growing approval of the AfD party as the German left continues to support mass immigration policies.
Les Frontieres reported – please note their obvious anti-AfD bias:
The city of Mannheim, in western Germany, was the scene last week of an Islamist attack which cost the life of a police officer and left several injured. A 25-year-old Afghan refugee, who had been in Germany for more than 10 years, attacked anti-Islam activists, ultimately only managing to steal the life of a law enforcement officer.
And less than a week after this barbaric act, the city of Mannheim was once again the scene of an attack targeting anti-immigration activists. This time it involved members of the AfD group, Alternative für Deutschland , whose positions are, it is true, very controversial.
The AfD is an anti-immigration party which has notably advocated remigration, that is to say the sending back of non-integrated immigrants to their country of origin. He was excluded from the European Identity and Democracy group for this reason, but remains one of the favorites in the polls in Germany: he could land second or third place in the poll with around 15% of the votes.
A member of the AfD was attacked in Mannheim, when he noticed an antifa tearing up one of his campaign posters, stuck in a public space. He intervened to stop the vandal, but received a blow from one of the three left-wing extremists present…
…Leftist sectarianism reaches sacred levels of denial of democracy. Given losers at the polls against an increasingly powerful sovereignist right, the little soldiers of Brussels are forced to resort to physical violence to impose their ideas on the European peoples.
This was not an isolated incident. The Gateway Pundit has reported on violence against AfD members for years.

Old Joe was at it again this weekend.
The failing Democrat told reporters he has known Vladimir Putin for 40 years. Putin was a KGB agent 40 years ago in 1984 and did not have a public presence.
Putin is 71-years-old. He would have been 31 when Joe says they met each other.
It didn’t happen.
The New York Post reported:
President Biden claimed Thursday that he has “known” Vladimir Putin “for over 40 years” — despite Russia’s president having served as an undercover KGB intelligence officer through the entire 1980s.
“I’ve known him for over 40 years. He’s concerned me for 40 years. He’s not a decent man,” Biden, 81, told ABC News anchor David Muir during an interview in France at the Normandy American Cemetery to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
Putin worked as an intelligence officer in the Soviet Union’s spy network from 1975 to 1991, with postings in his hometown of St. Petersburg and the former East Germany before he retired with the rank of lieutenant colonel — making it highly unlikely Biden was aware of the future US adversary’s existence as early as he claimed.
It was just more BS from Joe Biden.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has been caught charging U.S. taxpayers for the healthcare bills of the state’s illegal alien population.
According to local media, Newsom filed nearly $53 million worth of reimbursements that the state now must return to the federal government:
NBC15 reports:
California owes the federal government $52.7 million after it “improperly” requested reimbursements for services provided to noncitizens, according to a recent inspector general report.
The Golden State claimed Medicaid reimbursements for services it provided to “noncitizens with unsatisfactory immigration status,” the report reads. The category does not include those seeking asylum or refugees. States are prohibited from claiming such federal reimbursements except in medical emergency situations, which did not apply here, according to the report.
A review conducted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services inspector general’s office revealed that California employed an “outdated calculation” method for claiming federal reimbursements between October 2018 and June 2019. This method failed to exclude services provided to noncitizens, which must be paid for by the state.
“We recommend that California: (1) refund to the Federal Government the improperly claimed Federal reimbursement of $52.7 million for capitation payments made on behalf of noncitizens with UIS and (2) work with CMS to determine the amount of any improperly claimed Federal reimbursement for capitation payments made on behalf of noncitizens with UIS for an agreed-upon period not covered by our audit,” auditors wrote.
California is one of many Democratic states that not only protect illegal aliens from deportation but provide a variety of freebies including healthcare bills.
Last December, the Golden State became the first in the nation to give illegal aliens taxpayer-funded health insurance. Since its implementation, around 700,000 people have become eligible for Medi-Cal, the state version of the low-income federal Medicaid program.
“In California, we believe everyone deserves access to quality, affordable health care coverage – regardless of income or immigration status,” Newsom said at the time.

A new crime wave has reportedly hit the streets of New York City as illegal migrants are deliberately jumping in front of moving cars to extort money from terrified drivers.
The New York Post has reported on this disturbing trend, where migrants brazenly risk their lives in an attempt to financially exploit unsuspecting drivers. The illegal aliens have escalated their dangerous scam, particularly in Brooklyn’s bustling streets.
Dashcam footage obtained by The Post vividly captures one such incident on Flatbush Avenue South. The video shows a migrant deliberately leaping into the path of a car, forcing the driver to make a hazardous swerve to avoid a collision.
Christina, a 37-year-old driver and one of the victims of this harrowing scheme, recounted her terrifying experience.
“All of a sudden, a man with eyes wide open and screaming jumped in front of my car. He was trying to get me to run him over,” she said.
“If I had been distracted even for a second, my life could have been over. It’s just sickening,” she shared with The Post.
Residents of Rockaway Beach, where several near-misses have been reported, are particularly on edge. Community members have taken to Facebook to share their encounters and warn others, indicating a growing concern about this disturbing trend.
More from New York Post:
At least three other Rockaway Beach residents have almost become victims to the twisted trick, according to posts in an area Facebook group.
“It happened to me . . . in the dark early morning,” another resident wrote in response to Christina’s post.
“Someone did this to me outside the 7/11 on Flatbush about three weeks ago,” another responded.
In a separate post on May 6, another woman wrote that “a man jumped in front of my daughter’s car this morning” on Flatbush Avenue.
“She was able to brake in time and didn’t hit him.”
In January, John B., a retired NYPD cop from Bergen Beach, told The Post that details of the apparent extortion scheme were discussed by concerned residents and 63rd Precinct cops.
“They’re scaring people saying, ‘You just hit me, and I’m going to report it if you don’t give me the money,’” he explained.

According to a recent poll by Newsweek, more than 70% of New York City residents blamed the city’s current crime rates on illegal immigrants. Of these, 41% perceive immigration as having a “significant” impact on crime, while another 31% believe it has a “fair amount” of influence.
Washington Times reported:
Authorities blame the surge in violence on “asylum seekers” with connections to Latin American street gangs known for drug smuggling, human trafficking and killings.
“What goes on in Third World countries is happening on the streets of New York — every day, any borough, with no consequences,” Vickie Paladino, a member of the New York City Council from Queens, told The Washington Times.
Some view the uptick in migrant crime as the predictable result of President Biden’s border policies.
“Biden will come up with these just completely chaotic asylum and parole policies, and the next thing you know, we’ve got people flooding across the border,” said Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform. “Obviously, within that flood are people who are members of gangs, and apparently those gangs are in communication with people back in Venezuela. This is international organized gang violence and crime.”

A new dance trend has emerged that not only mocks but also painfully underscores the ineptitude and lack of leadership of Joe Biden.
Joe Biden once again reminded the world how mentally and physically unfit he is for office by randomly crouching down during war celebrations in France.
Appearing at the D-Day 80th anniversary celebrations with French President Emmanuel Macron, Biden began hunching over awkwardly. Jill Biden and Brigitte Macron looked on in confusion as the 81-year-old continued embarrassing himself on the world stage.

This embarrassing episode has now sparked an unlikely trend on social media, leading to the creation of a new dance craze called “Do the Biden!”
The dance mimics Biden’s hunched posture during the incident by slightly bending the knees and tensing the body, as if on the verge of a bathroom emergency, all while looking confused.
President of Coalition Texas, Sarah Fields, wrote, “On one hand, it is funny. But on another, it is also incredibly sad that this is where we are. Our president is the victim of disabled elderly abuse.”

Dr. Francis Boyle, a Harvard-trained professor and the architect of the 1989 Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act, which was unanimously approved by both Houses of the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President George H.W. Bush, has issued an affidavit declaring COVID-19 mRNA vaccines as biological weapons and weapons of mass destruction, Dr. Joseph Sansone first reported.
Dr. Boyle’s affidavit, which was submitted as part of an emergency petition for a writ of mandamus in Florida, argues that the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines violates several statutes, including the U.S. Code on Biological Weapons and Florida’s statutes on weapons and firearms.
This petition, aimed squarely at Governor Ron DeSantis and Attorney General Ashley Moody, calls for an immediate halt to the distribution of these injections in Florida and demands the confiscation of existing vaccine supplies.
According to Dr. Joseph Sansone, the original Emergency Petition for a Writ of Mandamus was filed on March 3rd, 2024, in the Florida Supreme Court. It was later transferred to the Circuit Court in Leon County on March 20th, 2024. After the Circuit Court dismissed the case on April 9th, 2024, it moved to the appellate court. The Appellate Brief was filed on Memorial Day, May 27th, 2024.
Dr. Boyle, one of the world’s leading legal experts on biological weapons, has added considerable weight to the case with his affidavit. The case already boasts a substantial body of evidence provided in the writ of mandamus, including affidavits from med-legal advisor and biotech analyst Karen Kingston and Ana Mihalcea, M.D., PhD.
According to Dr. Sansone, the pleadings claim that the distribution of these injections violates several laws, including:
Dr. Boyle’s signed affidavit reads:
Pursuant to 28 USC 1746, I, Francis A. Boyle declare under penalty of perjury that the statements contained herein are true and correct to the best of my knowledge.
I am Francis A. Boyle, a professor of international law at the University of Illinois College of Law. I received an AB (1971) in Political Science from the University of Chicago, then a JD degree magna cum laude from Harvard Law School, and AM and PhD degrees in Political Science from Harvard University.
I have advised numerous international bodies in the areas of human rights, war crimes and genocide, nuclear policy, and bio-warfare. In 1985 | publicly called for and then drafted the U.S. domestic implementing legislation for the Biological Weapons Convention, known as the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989, that was approved unanimously by both Houses of the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President George H.W. Bush with the approval of the United States Department of Justice. See my book Biowarfare and Terrorism (Clarity Press: 2005).
It is my expert opinion that, ‘COVID-19 nanoparticle injections’ or ‘mRNA nanoparticle injections’ or ‘COVID-19 injections meet the criteria of biological weapons and weapons of mass destruction according to Biological Weapons 18 USC § 175; Weapons and Firearms § 790.166 Fla.Stat. (2023).
In 2022, The Gateway Pundit reported that the Florida Supreme Court approved Governor Ron DeSantis’ request to impanel a grand jury to investigate Covid vaccine manufacturers.
The order read:
“1. A statewide grand jury shall be promptly impaneled for a term of twelve calendar months, to run from the date of impanelment, with jurisdiction throughout the State of Florida, to investigate crime, return indictments, make presentments, and otherwise perform all functions of a grand jury with regard to the offenses stated herein.
2. The statewide grand jury shall be drawn from the certified jury lists submitted by the chief judges of the Fifth, Sixth, Tenth, Twelfth, and Thirteenth Judicial Circuits.” the order read.
3. The Honorable Ronald Ficarrotta, Chief Judge in and for the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, is designated as presiding judge over the statewide grand jury. In his capacity as the presiding judge, the Honorable Ronald Ficarrotta shall maintain judicial supervision of the statewide grand jury, and all indictments, presentments, and formal returns of any kind made by such grand jury shall be returned to the presiding judge. The presiding judge may designate an alternate presiding judge in the event of calendar conflicts or otherwise and to assist in the administrative process of the statewide grand jury.
4. John A. Tomasino, Clerk of the Supreme Court of Florida, is hereby designated clerk of this statewide grand jury and is empowered to deputize any clerk of a circuit court or any deputy clerk of a circuit court to issue necessary process and to carry out the administrative functions of the statewide grand jury.”
“Today I’m announcing a petition with the Supreme Court of Florida to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate any and all wrongdoing in Florida with respect to COVID vaccines,” DeSantis said during a COVID vaccine accountability roundtable.
Governor Ron DeSantis’ move to launch a statewide grand jury investigation into injuries associated with the Covid vaccine follows an announcement from Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo. The Surgeon General declared that his office is beginning a study into instances of myocarditis in individuals who have received the shot.
“We are initiating a program here in Florida where we will be studying the incidence in surveillance of myocarditis within a few weeks of Covid-19 vaccination for people who died,” Dr. Joseph Ladapo said.
“This is going to be a surveillance study using, working with some of our medical examiners in Florida. We’re also going to be working with the University of Florida so there will be a component that has more of a research or research forum to it, but we will answer this question,” he said.
“It is a question that I’m sure keeps the CEOs of Pfizer and Moderna up late at night hoping no one ever looks, but we’re going to look here in Florida.”

We should have known.
On Saturday, it was announced that women’s basketball sensation Caitlin Clark would not be included on the US Women’s Basketball team in the 2024 Olympics.
The greatest collegiate player in history, who broke nearly every men’s and women’s basketball scoring and assist records while at the University of Iowa, will not be on the team.
Brittney Griner, who has only played in one game and scored 11 points this year, will be on the team!
No player on the Olympic team has scored more 3-pointers this year in the WNBA than Caitlin Clark.
And only one woman on the Olympic team has more assists than Clark this WNBA Season.
Many sports commentators are shocked with the decision.
David Portnoy from Barstool Sports had this to say about the news:
Dave Portnoy: All right. I’m at Saratoga Belmont Day. Looking spectacular, per usual shoes, bang. But this is about Caitlin Clark being left off the Olympic team. How dumb are these women? How dumb? I don’t know who’s making the decision, women’s Olympic Committee, whatever it is. I don’t care if you don’t think Caitlin Clark talent-wise belongs on this team, even though she does put up 37 to 13, like the most points in the history of the league for a rookie.
None of it matters. These women, and I love women, I’m a pro-woman-guy, women-guy. They complain and they cry about equal rights, equal wages, blah, blah, blah, blah. Hey, dummies, for the first time in the history of basketball, you have arguably a player who is the most popular player in the world. You could argue right now, Caitlin Clark is the most talked about, discussed, most popular, most puts asses in the seats, single basketball player in the world. You could argue that. Yeah, you could say maybe LeBron, Luca, whatever you want, but you can argue it. And you leave her off the Olympic team. It’s not only a showcase for her, it’s for the sport and the other WNBA players who are on this team.
How dumb, how brain dead, how idiotic do the people running this thing have to be? It was one thing after another with her. The business part of my brain is like, these people, and maybe it’s guy, whoever it is, I don’t ever want to hear you complain about flying commercial or not getting salaries or this, that. You’re too dumb. You’re too dumb. You have a cash cow. This can bring the Olympic basketball, women’s basketball, be like the number one thing people watch with Caitlin Clark. As it is, I’d rather watch grass grow. I’d rather watch paint dry. I’d rather watch dirt just be moved around because Caitlin Clark is not on the team. If she’s there, it’s appointment TV. You people, whoever did this, honestly, hey, take your brain, put it in a museum, and study it for how dumb you are.
Here is his rant.
Rant incoming. – leaving Caitlin Clark off the women’s Olympic team is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard pic.twitter.com/RXg0XwFwtN
— Dave Portnoy (@stoolpresidente) June 8, 2024
Well, we now know who made the decision to keep Clark off of the Olympic team and it comes as no surprise who made the decision.
The selection committee for the women’s USA basketball team for the 2024 Paris Olympics included several notable figures in the women’s basketball world.
The five committee members include:
** Dawn Staley, University of South Carolina coach and former U.S. coach and player.
Staley is the South Carolina coach in the SEC. Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes beat undefeated South Carolina in the 2023 NCAA Women’s Basketball Final Four. This prevented South Carolina from having a perfect season. Staley’s Gamecocks won this year’s matchup in the Championship game giving Staley a perfect season.
** Seimone Augustus, LSU assistant.
Augustus is currently assistant coach at LSU in the SEC. She was the first pick in the 2006 WNBA draft. She never had the offers to make the kind of money Caitlin Clark is making today.
** Delisha Milton-Jones, Old Dominion coach.
Milton-Jones is a black woman who played for Florida in the SEC. She played in the WNBA and is now coaching at Old Dominion.
** Jennifer Rizzotti, Connecticut Sun president.
Rizzotti is a former UConn player and longtime college coach. Clark and Iowa knocked UConn out of the NCAA Tourney this year in the Final Four.
** Bethany Donaphin, WNBA head of league operations.
Donaphin is Head of WNBA League Operations.
If these women had any courage they would have come out and held a presser to defend their choice.
But they are not only jealous and petty but weak. They know there is NO EXCUSE for barring Caitlin Clark from the team.
Clark broke all records on the court and off the court this year. These women are bitter and petty.
And Clark is the only player in the world who can continually fill stadiums.
Maybe they don’t like that she signs autographs for little girls at the end of each game?
These five women who barred Caitlin Clark from being on the 2024 Olympic team should be ashamed. They did a disservice to their country. How much did pettiness, jealousy, and racism play in their decision?

The German government has declined an offer from the Taliban to repatriate Afghan migrants convicted of crimes on the grounds that it would indicate recognition of the Islamist regime.
The offer from the Taliban government follows the murder of a police officer by an Afghan national in a senseless knife attack in the southwest city of Manheim.
Following the attack last week, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz initially indicated that he wanted to deport violent criminals, even to dangerous countries such as Syria and Afghanistan. “Such criminals should be deported – even if they come from Syria and Afghanistan,” Scholz told the Bundestag or lower house of parliament.
There is currently a ban on deporting migrants back to Afghanistan since the Taliban took back control of the country back in 2021.
The Taliban’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Abdul Kahar Balchi expressed openness to the idea, posting on the X platform: “The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan calls upon the German authorities to address through normal consular engagement and an appropriate mechanism based on bilateral agreement.”

— Abdul Qahar Balkhi (@QaharBalkhi) June 7, 2024
However, the Germany Foreign Ministry has since played down the idea, stating that it refuses to work with a government it does not recognize.
“The Taliban will want to have any repatriations paid for at least through international recognition,” a spokesman for Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said in Berlin. “And it is a fact that the German government does not recognize the de facto Taliban government in Afghanistan, just like any other country in the world, and does not cooperate with it.”
According to InfoMigrants, there are around 400,000 Afghans currently living in Germany. Around 33,000 of those have entered the country since the Taliban’s takeover in 2021.

Los Angeles police have arrested Ryan Garcia for felony vandalism at the Waldorf Astoria in Beverly Hills.
TMZ reports the boxer was arrested on Saturday afternoon after apparently damaging hotel property, including his room.
Garcia predicted his arrest three months ago. Garcia said he would be arrested on June 8th. He was arrested on June 7th.

TMZ claims that Garcia was ‘seemingly under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs’ but cooperated with authorities during his arrest.
The 25-year-old beat Devin Haney earlier this year but his erratic conduct in the buildup led many to question if he was mentally stable enough to fight. He failed a doping test after his surprise victory.
TMZ reported earlier this week that Garcia was checked out by police at same hotel after a call from a family member that was concerned for his wellbeing. Offers apparently determined that he was fine and it was the end of the matter.
But his arrest on Saturday in California is the latest concerning instalment for Garcia.

Garcia has previously come forward with distressing claims regarding elite child trafficking networks and troubling personal encounters.
In December 2023, his divorce was finalized from Andrea Celina shortly after the arrival of their second child.
As the fighter prepared for his April fight with Haney, he raised serious questions about his mental well-being by posting a series of alarming and erratic messages online, one of which claimed he had suffered a slashed throat.

Garcia also claimed to have been raped at an early age by a family member, while alleging that he was tied up in the woods by ‘the elites’ and forced to watch child rape.
Amid concerns over his state of mind, he came in almost four pounds overweight for his grudge match against WBC super-lightweight champion Haney, meaning he did not collect that title despite his victory on the night.
Despite appearing to be under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, the 25-1 fighter complied with authorities peacefully.

Last week after the sham guilty verdict came down in New York City, Trump announced that he had raised a staggering $400 million.
This week, during a one night event in Silicon Valley, hosted by entrepreneur David Sacks, Trump raised another $12 million – in just one night.
The fact that people in blue Silicon Valley are stepping up to support Trump, post-NYC verdict, shows that the political narrative has shifted. No one could have imagined Trump getting this kind of support in such a blue area four years ago.
Breitbart News reported:
Trump Raises $12M at Silicon Valley Fundraiser Hosted by Venture Capitalist David Sacks
Former President Donald Trump raised $12 million at a Silicon Valley fundraiser in deep blue state California on Thursday, according to a member of the California Republican National Committee.
Harmeet Dhillon posted on X: “$12M raised tonight! Incredible support for @realDonaldTrump. Not an empty seat in the gorgeous home of @DavidSacks and Jacqueline. Thrilled to see the tech leaders stepping up!”
It was the first fundraiser since Trump’s conviction last week, illustrating the former president’s ability to raise funds and garner support despite Democrats’ best efforts to label him a “convicted felon” and hurt his candidacy…
The fundraiser was co-hosted by Sacks and fellow venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya. The two co-host the popular “All-In” podcast.
According to the Times, the initial goal of the fundraiser was $5 million — an amount that was exceeded by more than double. About 25 were expected to attend a dinner as part of the fundraiser, with another approximately 50 slated to attend a bigger reception.
In a lengthy post on Twitter/X, David Sacks explained his support for Trump:
Why I’m Backing President Trump
As many press accounts have reported, I’m hosting a fundraising event for President Donald J. Trump at my home in San Francisco this evening.
Over the last couple of years, I have hosted events for presidential candidates Ron DeSantis, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as well as several Congressional figures in both major parties. I give to many, but endorse few.
But today I am giving my endorsement to our 45th President, Donald J. Trump, to be our 47th President. My reasons rest on four main issues that I think are vital to American prosperity, security, and stability – issues where the Biden administration has veered badly off course and where I believe President Trump can lead us back.

Cities across the country are dealing with a large increase in their homeless populations, but the problem in Los Angeles dwarfs other locations.
The city is reportedly building a new tower to house the homeless on the notorious ‘Skid Row’ which will feature one-bedroom and studio apartments, a gym, a cafe, an art studio and more.
While the city should be congratulated for trying to address the homeless problem, one has to wonder if this is really the best approach.

The Daily Mail reports:
Homeless people on LA’s Skid Row to move into swanky new tower block fit with a gym, café and art studio
A multi-story tower block built on Los Angeles’s Skid Row, which is designed exclusively to house the homeless, is now open for leasing.
The Weingart Towers is a 278-unit fully-furnished residential building that has a gym, soundproofed music room, television lounge, café, and an art studio inside.
This month, the sprawling building is all set to become a ‘self-contained environment’ that will take in city-dwellers living on the streets.
New residents will be able to enjoy the swanky amenities, as well as appliance-filled renovated kitchens and wall-mounted televisions inside their apartment units.
The building, which was entirely funded by public sources, will also provide on-site case management and physical and mental health care – designed to help its new residents get their lives back on track.
Out of the building’s 278 units, 40 are also reserved for veteran households.
Some people are skeptical about the plan.
Why are we incentivizing homelessness in CA, without requiring that they submit to mental heath treatment and/or drug rehab? This makes as much sense as giving out free unlimited healthcare to illegal immigrants. https://t.co/CfYe67h3LY

Recent polls have suggested that Trump and Biden are currently tied in Virginia. This is big news because a Republican hasn’t carried Virginia in a presidential race since 2004.
Biden won the state in 2020 and Hillary Clinton carried it in 2016.
Could that change this year? Virginia’s Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin seems to think so.
FOX News reports:
Governor says Trump could become the first GOP presidential candidate to win his state in 20 years
It’s been two decades since a Republican carried Virginia in the race for the White House.
You have to go back to then-President George W. Bush, who won the Commonwealth in his 2004 re-election victory.
Democrats have carried the state in four straight presidential elections, including President Biden’s 10-point victory over Donald Trump four years ago as he won the White House.
But GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkin thinks the former president has a very good shot of ending the Republican losing streak in Virginia as Trump faces off this autumn with Biden in a 2024 election rematch.
“Let’s just begin by remembering where we were in 2020 when Joe Biden won Virginia by 10 points, and the fact that we’re having this discussion is a huge turn of events,” Youngkin said earlier this week in a Fox News Digital interview in New Orleans, as he attended a Republican Governors Association (RGA) conference.
Youngkin emphasized that “we’re here in June and there’s still a lot of water to go under the bridge, but Virginia looks like it’s in play and that’s pretty exciting.”
Even the FOX News poll, which always seems to lean left for some reason, has Trump tied with Biden in Virginia.

With his constitutional Presidential mandate expired, the ‘champion for democracy’, Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky is facing the discredit by the Russian enemies.
Recently re-elected in a landslide, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s has been repeatedly clear about how Moscow sees the Ukrainian leader as lacking legitimacy.
For the first time, in a press conference in France alongside President Emmanuel Macron, Zelensky addressed the allegations and dismissed them.
Reuters reported:
President Volodymyr Zelensky said his legitimacy is recognized and determined by the Ukrainian people while criticizing that of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“‘President Zelensky’s legitimacy is recognized by the people of Ukraine. Our people are free. Putin’s legitimacy is recognized only by comrade Putin’, he told a press conference in Paris.”
As we see, the leader who cancelled elections sees himself as more legitimate than the one who held them and won in a landslide. So it goes.
The Presidential elections in Ukraine were supposed to take place this spring, and by late May, Zelensky’s five-year term of office ended.
Zelensky now is ruling by force of Martial law in his country.
“However, martial law introduced following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 bans any wartime election. The constitution says the president serves until a newly elected one takes office.
Putin claimed several times that Zelensky is illegitimate after his five-year term ended this May.”
Putin says that the only Ukrainian authority Russia recognizes as of now is the speaker of Parliament, Ruslan Stefanchuk.
But Western leaders – who are after all Ukraine’s sponsors and handlers – have not questioned Zelensky’s legitimacy.
Zelensky’s response comes days after Putin started claiming that presidential power should be shifted to speaker of Ukraine’s parliament Stefanchuk.
It is perhaps not a great sign that Zelensky is now talking of himself in the third person. Kyiv Independent reported him as saying.: “It is the people of Ukraine who elect him, and I am very grateful for their support. Our people are free. This is what we are fighting for.”
The latest presidential election should have been held on March 31, 2024, with Zelensky’s term would ending on May 20.
Speaker Ruslan Stefanchuk also dismissed Putin’s claims about Zelensky’s legitimacy; “Volodymyr Zelensky remains and will remain Ukraine’s president until the end of martial law. All this is in accordance with Ukraine’s Constitution and laws.”

In October of 2020 – just days before the presidential election – 51 former intelligence officials signed and published a letter that baselessly decried the contents of Hunter’s ‘laptop from hell’ had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”
This was a lie. They all knew it was a lie. The FBI and intelligence community knew in November 2019 that Hunter Biden’s laptop was authentic and contained evidence of hundreds of international crimes that included his father, Joe Biden.
In March, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) introduced a House Resolution that would strip security clearances from dozens of federal intelligence officials who signed on to the letter declaring the infamous Hunter Biden laptop as “Russian disinformation” shortly after it emerged leading up to the rigged 2020 election.
During the second presidential debate in 2020, Joe Biden and hack reporter Kristen Welker teamed up against President Donald Trump.
At one point, Joe Biden interrupted Welker for his planned response to the Hunter Biden Laptop from Hell scandal. Joe Biden told the audience that 50 intelligence leaders signed a letter saying the laptop was “Russian propaganda.”
The laptop, which contains a trove of incriminating emails and images, is now confirmed to be authentic by an FBI agent involved in the Hunter Biden gun trial case.
FBI Special Agent Erika Jensen, who testified in court, confirmed that the laptop belonged to Hunter Biden and that its contents were genuine.
“When asked how she was able to confirm the laptop’s authenticity, Ms. Jensen said the serial number on the back of the laptop matches the serial number provided in Apple Inc.’s response to a subpoena for records.”
Despite this new revelation, James Clapper, the former director of national intelligence under the Obama regime, has refused to retract a letter he signed along with 51 other former officials.
When asked by Fox News Digital if he regretted signing the letter given the current evidence, Clapper simply responded with a resolute “No.”
According to Fox News, Clapper declined to publicly remove his name from the letter and would not concede that he and the other former intelligence officials who endorsed it should have waited longer before making such an impactful claim.
It’s worth recalling that Clapper said that he never suggested that Hunter Biden’s laptop was Russian disinformation. Of course, that is a lie, and his name is listed on the signed letter along with 51 dishonest and untrustworthy intel officials.
These people should be in prison for interfering in an election.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has agreed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee regarding the recent hush-money trial of President Donald Trump.
This decision comes in response to a request from House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, who has been leading the charge against the politically motivated attacks on Trump and his allies.
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan called Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and Joe Biden‘s DOJ hatchet man Matthew Colangelo to testify before the Weaponization Committee on June 13 following the guilty verdict against Trump.
Bragg’s top prosecutor, Matthew Colangelo, previously worked in the Justice Department (a Biden appointee) and is a lifelong left-wing activist.
Biden sent Matthew Colangelo to New York to convict his main political opponent of non-crimes.
The jury then found Trump guilty on 34 felony counts after crooked judge Juan Merchan rigged the trial and allowed jurors to choose among three predicate crimes Trump committed.
In a letter to Chairman Jordan, Leslie Dubeck, Bragg’s general counsel, expressed the DA’s office’s commitment to cooperating with the committee’s investigation.
Read the letter obtained by Politico:
This responds to your letters dated May 31, 2024, inviting representatives of the New York County District Attorney’s Office to testify before the House Judiciary Committee Select Subcommittee in a public hearing about the work of this Office.
This Office is committed to voluntary cooperation. That cooperation includes making the District Attorney available to provide testimony on behalf of the Office at an agreed-upon date, and evaluating the propriety of allowing an Assistant District Attorney to testify publicly about an active prosecution to which he is assigned.
However, the proposed date that the Subcommittee selected without consulting the Office presents various scheduling conflicts. In addition, the Committee’s invitation has not made clear the scope of the proposed testimony; and trial court proceedings in People v. Trump are currently scheduled to continue through July 11, 2024.
The trial court and reviewing appellate courts have issued numerous orders for the purpose of protecting the fair administration of justice in People v. Trump, and to participate in a public hearing at this time would be potentially detrimental to those efforts.
The District Attorney’s Office therefore requests an opportunity to engage with Committee staff to identify a new hearing date, and to better understand the scope and purpose of the proposed hearing.
As with the prior inquiries from this Committee, we look forward to discussing with committee staff how the Office may be able to accommodate the Committee’s invitation while also protecting the integrity of an ongoing criminal prosecution and New York’s sovereign interests.

A deranged drag queen named ‘Brigitte Bandit’ promoted trans propaganda at the Texas Democrat Convention this weekend.
Part of Brigitte’s agenda was promoting drag queen story hour for children.
And she’s proud of it.
“I’m a product of the Texas public school system. I have worked with children for over a decade, and I am now a full-time drag queen in Austin, Texas. Sometimes I read books to children in drag,” the drag queen said.

It is frightening to any parent to think that this person has worked with children for over a decade.
The disturbed individual was not finished. She continued to push for “gender-affirming care” for children.
“We have a duty to protect our most marginalized communities. Trans kids deserve to grow into healthy adults,” the drag queen continued.

Simply put, these activists are pushing policies that destroy children’s lives. The Democrat party has become so extreme that they are more interested in LGBTQ propaganda than actually protecting kids and allowing them to live normal lives.
This drag queen even mentioned “free Palestine” in “her” speech. “She” does not realize what would happen if she was in Palestine dressed like that.
“Free Palestine, long live Texas drag, protect trans kids, and happy pride month everybody,” the drag queen continued.

Sky News Australia recently interviewed Mick Mulvaney, the former White House Chief of Staff under the Trump administration, asking him whom he believes Trump will select as his Vice President.
In the interview, when asked who he believes Trump will pick as his vice president, Mulvaney said, “I’m giving you the winner right now; I’m telling you it’s going to be Ben Carson.”
Mulvaney continued, “The one element I think Ben Carson has that none of the other six people on the list have is I don’t think Ben Carson wants to be president; I don’t think he wants to run for president.”
“The 2028 election starts the next day after the 2024 election. I don’t think Donald Trump wants anybody in that White House running for President on day one of his second term. That’s why I keep coming back again to Ben Carson. They know each other, they like each other, he’s trustworthy, he’s loyal,” added Mulvaney.

Former White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney says Donald Trump’s Vice-President is “going to be Ben Carson”.
The Associated Press is reporting Donald Trump’s Vice-Presidential candidates include Doug Burgum, Marco Rubio, J.D. Vance, Tim Scott, Elise Stefanik and Ben Carson.
“We don’t really have betting markets on this in the United State,” Mr Mulvaney told Sky News Australia.
“If they have them in Australia, I’m giving you the winner right now – I’m telling you it’s going to be Ben Carson.
“The one element I think Ben Carson has that none of the other six people on the list have is I don’t think Ben Carson wants to be president; I don’t think he wants to run for president.”
Ben Carson recently appeared on CNN and shared his concerns regarding mail-in ballots being used in the 2024 election.

It’s clear that the selection of women’s basketball players for the Olympic team is not based on results or merit; it’s based on politics.
The roster of the 2024 US Women’s Olympic team is out and Caitlin Clark, who broke every record possible in college, and who has made more threes than any other woman in the WNBA this year, is not on the team. OUTRAGEOUS.
CBS Sports reported (Per The Gateway Pundit):
Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark is expected to be left off the Team USA women’s basketball roster for the upcoming Summer Olympics in Paris, David Eickholt of 247Sports confirms.
USA Today’s Christine Brennan first reported shortly after midnight Saturday.
Clark became the college basketball all-time leading scorer earlier this year, and she is currently putting up some impressive numbers in the WNBA.
… Clark has also already put up two 30-point games — one of them being during the Fever’s 85-83 win over the Washington Mystics in which she reached a career-high seven 3-pointers. With that performance, Clark became the fastest rookie in WNBA history to record 200+ points and 50+ assists.
The list of women on the US basketball roster is reportedly as follows:
Clark has brought more people to women’s basketball than anyone in history. She owns nearly every women’s NCAA basketball record for scoring and assists.
Clark has more 3-pointers made to date this season in the WNBA than any woman selected to the Olympic team.
Brittney Griner has played in only one game this year in the WNBA. She made 11 points.
This year, Clark blew away Griner’s record for most points in a career in college. But that doesn’t matter to the Olympic committee choosing the WNBA team.
Was the committee wooed by the fact that Griner was arrested in Russia?
Griner was arrested in Russia after trying to bring an illegal substance into the country.
“As a US citizen was passing through the green channel at Sheremetyevo Airport upon arriving from New York, a working dog from the Sheremetyevo customs canine department detected the possible presence of narcotic substances in the accompanying luggage,” a statement from the customs service said.
“The customs inspection of the hand luggage being carried by the US citizen confirmed the presence of vapes with specifically smelling liquid, and an expert determined that the liquid was cannabis oil (hash oil), which is a narcotic substance.”
Griner was eventually set free via a prisoner exchange in December 2022.
WNBA star Brittney Griner was free Thursday after the Biden administration negotiated her release from a Russian penal colony in exchange for an arms dealer, according to a senior administration official.
President Joe Biden signed off on the trade, which took place in the United Arab Emirates, even though it meant leaving behind Paul Whelan, a U.S. corporate security executive who remains jailed in Russia…
Some on the right attacked Griner as being less deserving of release than Whelan, because she once protested during the playing of the national anthem at WNBA games to raise awareness of racial justice issues.
After that experience, Griner said that the only way she’ll play basketball overseas again is if she’s representing her country in international competition.

GOP Congressman Guy Reschenthaler (PA) joined Rose Unplugged to issue a warning after an American citizen was detained in Turks and Caicos because he had ammunition in his luggage.
Bryan Hagerich, who was arrested in February, was facing 12 years in prison after he pleaded guilty to possession of ammunition. He reportedly forgot he had hunting ammo in his travel bag when he arrived in Turks and Caicos, a Caribbean island with very strict gun laws.
Hagerich, a father of two, returned to the US late last month after a judge sentenced him to a suspended one-year sentence and a $6,700 fine.
Bryan Hagerich and Rep. Reschenthaler spoke with Rose Unplugged about the State Department’s lack of urgency and warned other Americans who may want to travel to Turks and Caicos.
Rep. Reschenthaler said there is an “anti-American sentiment” on the island.

Pro-Hamas thugs were protesting near the White House on Saturday at Lafayette Square Park while chanting against Joe Biden.
Protesters surround the White House and call for a ceasefire in Palestine. The crowd continues to grow as protestors can be heard chanting “Hey Joe Biden, you’re a sellout!” The Red Line protest aims to send a message to President Joe Biden to “Stop the Genocide” as supporters surround the White House.
This comes as a response to the Biden administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war.
A pro-Hamas supporter was releasing smoke dressed as Spiderman chanting pro-Hamas sayings with other supporters nearby also chanting.
Most of these protestors have no clue what they are saying since it is just a “repeat after me” sort of chant.
“Biden, Biden you can’t hide, we charge you with genocide,” Pro-Hamas supporters chanted.
They continued, “In our millions and our billions, we are all Palestinians,” Pro-Hamas supporters continued.
“From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” Pro-Hamas supporters continued.
Most of these supporters probably don’t know what river or sea they are chanting about.

Fox News reporter Lucas Tomlinson noted the protestors violated DC’s laws on wearing hoods or masks to conceal the identity of the wearer.
To add to the already weird protest, other pro-Hamas supporters were holding up signs that said “Fags for Hamas.” It would appear that this group has no understanding of what would happen to them if they were in Gaza or any Islamic country for that matter.

Donald Trump’s disgraced former attorney Michael Cohen has claimed that the former president is planning to assassinate his political enemies if he returns to the White House next year.
Appearing on MSNBC with host Ali Velshi, Cohen claimed that people will “start flying out of windows” if he wins the election in November.
He explained:
State-sponsored news just like what you have in Russia and their station which is called Pravda and means truth which is ironic, right? All of this goes away under a Donald Trump administration. Why? Because he doesn’t want to hear anything negative being said about him. The fact that you have this television show, the fact that you have the ability to speak truth to power, all of that goes away if in fact this man into becoming president.
All of these people whether it is Marco Rubio, Mike Johnson, Mark Meadows have all said disparaging things about Donald Trump at one point in time. they believe that if Donald Trump wins and they are shoulder to shoulder with him, that they will have unlimited power which would of course give them the ability to have unlimited resources and assets. One mistake that they are making, Donald Trump doesn’t share. It is all about him, not about his kids, not about his family, it is all about him.”
So they think that they are going to hitch themselves to his wagon in hopes that they are going to elevate themselves whether it is in power, through money, through connections and so forth, it does not work that way. He will not allow that and just like Putin, once you start to get too big for your own britches, people will start flying out of windows, they will end up in gulags. As Donald says all the time, send them to Gitmo, send them to Guantanamo bay.
Cohen, a convicted perjurer and self-confessed thief, made the remarks just weeks after he testified at Trump’s sham criminal trial, in which the hand picked jury found him “guilty” on all counts.
“Today is an important day for accountability and the rule of law,” he said after Trump’s conviction last month. “While it has been a difficult journey for me and my family, the truth always matters. I want to thank my attorneys Danya Perry for her invaluable guidance and support throughout this process.”

Representative Thomas Massie has stepped forward with a proposition that could potentially halt Steve Bannon’s impending imprisonment.
His plan involves urging Speaker Mike Johnson to rescind the congressional subpoena issued against Bannon and to formally disavow what he refers to as the “J6 witch hunt.”
This development follows a recent decision by a Washington, D.C. judge to deny Bannon’s appeal, mandating him to surrender to prison by July 1.
The decision, handed down by United States District Court Judge Carl Nichols, rejected Bannon’s plea to stay his sentence while he prepares to take his appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Bannon’s conviction was based on his noncompliance with a subpoena from the sham House committee investigating the events of January 6, an act he defended by citing President Trump’s assertion of executive privilege.
Bannon’s staunch refusal to provide documents was supported by arguments that such executive privileges have been upheld for over 250 years, tracing back to the presidency of George Washington.
Mike Davis, a former clerk for Justice Gorsuch and a regular on Bannon’s show “War Room,” emphasized last month, “Presidents must receive candid advice from their advisors without the fear of congressional repercussions or imprisonment.”
In response to this situation, Rep. Massie suggested that Speaker Mike Johnson could play a pivotal role in preventing Bannon’s imprisonment.
He wrote on social media, “Mike Johnson, Why don’t we rescind the Congressional subpoena for Steve Bannon and officially repudiate the J6 committee by a vote of Congress?”
.@SpeakerJohnson, why don’t we rescind the Congressional subpoena for Steve Bannon and officially repudiate the J6 committee by a vote of Congress?

In another post, Massie urged Americans to voice their concerns to Johnson directly. He commented, “#1. He’s not going to do it just because it’s a good idea. He has to hear from Americans. You can stay on the couch, just pick up your phone and dial.”
He also criticized Johnson for cancelling a workday in DC at Pelosi’s request due to the D-Day anniversary, saying, “#2. We only worked in DC for 3 days this week. Johnson canceled today because Pelosi asked him to due to D-day anniversary.”

Argentine President Javier Milei continues to make waves wherever he goes, and is leading by example, putting his money where his mouth is.
It has just arisen that Argentina’s social security body accepted Milei’s request to give up his future retirement as former president, as the country’s legislation would award him.
Milei wrote: “I hereby express my unshakable decision not to exercise the right to privileged retirement conferred by the lifelong monthly benefits regime provided for in article one of Law No. 24,018.”

Gazeta do Povo reported:
"The president of Argentina, Javier Milei, declared in an interview with The Free Press this Thursday (6) that he hates the State, loves being 'the mole' within it and is willing to endure "lies, slander and insults" to achieve his goal. aim to destroy it from within.
'I love, I love being the mole within the State. I am the one who destroys the State from within. It's like being infiltrated in the enemy ranks', he responded when asked if he likes being 'the weasel in the garden', in an interview on last week as part of his visit to Palo Alto, California, in the United States.
'The reform of the State has to be done by someone who hates the State, and I hate the State so much that I am willing to put up with all kinds of lies, slander and insults, both about myself and about my loved ones, who are my sister , my dogs and my parents, in order to destroy the State', he added."
It's a tough 'cultural battle' dominated by socialism for decades, one that 'little by little, is being recovered by libertarians'.
"'We are not fighting this battle just at the economic and political level, we have not abandoned the cultural battle and all of this will generate a situation in which Argentina will grow again with great strength', he analyzed."
After assuming the Presidency in December last year, his image and his government's approval have both improved, Milei says, to the point where today he would receive 60% of the votes.
"'The most important thing is that this means a change of era. People have interpreted and assimilated that all the shortcuts of populism and socialism do not work, and this is an element for us to be very optimistic', he declared."

The chilling manifesto of Covenant School shooter Audrey Elizabeth Hale, a biological female who identified as a transgender male at the time of her horrific attack on March 27, 2023, was leaked again on Friday.
Star News Digital Media, Inc., which owns and operates The Star, and the publication’s editor-in-chief, Michael Patrick Leahy, are currently plaintiffs in lawsuits seeking to compel the Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) and the FBI to release Hale’s writings, including those referred to as a manifesto.
The Tennessee Star confirmed on Wednesday that it had obtained nearly four dozen pages of Hale’s writings from a source familiar with the investigation. The March 11, 2023 entry revealed her intense desire to possess a “penis.”
Hale’s diary entry begins with the title “My Imaginary Penis” and includes a crude drawing. “My penis exists in my head. I swear to god I’m a male,” wrote Hale in the diary. She then expressed her desire to have a penis for heterosexual intercourse, according to The Tennessee Star.
Further into the document, Hale details the challenges faced when using the name Aiden on a job application, which led to complications during a background check. The writings also reveal a narrative of torment about being raised as a girl, describing it as “torture.”
“I hate parental views; how my mom sees me as a daughter – and she’d not bear to want to lose that daughter because a son would be the death of Audrey.”
Today, The Gateway Pundit has an exclusive image from the Audrey Hale collection.
The image below comes from the car of killer Audrey Elizabeth Hale, who self-identified as a male named “Aiden.”
This comes from two pages in the 80-page journal recovered by the MNPD on March 27, 2023.
This image comes from a source familiar with the Covenant killer investigation.
On the left-hand page Audrey mentions the Columbine Shooting in 1999 when 13 students and one teacher were murdered: “April of ’99 – the year Columbine was born… (4/17/1999)
She then writes down – 4/17/2023 and circles it.
Audrey shot up the Covenant School on March 27, 2023 where she killed six including three children.
Audrey then writes 3/27/23 – the year Aiden is born…
On the right-hand page Audrey writes, “I need a transdoctor… This female gender role makes me want to not exist… to be completely gone in physical form. off the face of the earth. DIE AIDEN.”
She then adds this, “My therapist now is the best I could get 4 help. My autism.”
The girl was horribly deranged. It makes you wonder what psychiatric drugs they had her on?
This is an exclusive image from her booklet.

So, there we have it. A mere days after US President Joe Biden was convinced by his aides and the international clamor in the West to allow Ukraine to shoot its US-provided long-range missiles at targets inside the Russian Federation territory, it arises that four Russian ships, including a nuclear-powered submarine, will arrive in Havana next week.
Cuban officials announced the visit, citing ‘historically friendly relations’ between both nations.
Associated Press reported:
“Cuba’s foreign ministry said in a news release that the ships will be in Havana between June 12 and June 17, noting that none of them will carry any nuclear weapons and assuring their presence “does not represent a threat to the region.”
The announcement came a day after U.S. officials said that Washington had been tracking Russian warships and aircraft that were expected to arrive in the Caribbean for a military exercise. They said the exercise would be part of a broader Russian response to the U.S. support for Ukraine.
The officials said that the Russian military presence was notable but not concerning. However, it’s taking place as Russian President Vladimir Putin has suggested that Moscow could take ‘asymmetrical steps’ elsewhere in the world in response to President Joe Biden’s decision to allow Ukraine to use U.S.-provided weapons to strike inside Russia to protect Kharkov, Ukraine’s second-largest city.”
The four Russian ships are the frigate Gorshkov, the nuclear-powered submarine Kazan, the fleet oil tanker Pashin and the salvage tug Nikolai Chiker.
While the Russian nuclear-powered submarine will reportedly not be carrying nuclear weapons, there will be plenty of conventional missiles incredibly close to US territory.
The we have it: the endless escalation is knocking on America’s door.
Cuba’s ministry of the revolutionary armed forces said in a statement that the ships will dock in the Cuban capital from 12-17 June.
The Guardian reported:
“‘None of the vessels is carrying nuclear weapons, so their stopover in our country does not represent a threat to the region’, the ministry said.”
US officials: Russian military presence was ‘notable but not concerning’.
But the visit comes just as Russian President Vladimir Putin indicated that Moscow could take ‘asymmetrical steps’ elsewhere in the world in response to President Joe Biden’s decision to allow Ukraine to use US-provided weapons to strike inside Russia.
“The unusual deployment of the Russian military so close to the US – particularly the powerful submarine – comes amid major tensions over the war in Ukraine, where the western-backed government is fighting a Russian invasion. The Russian vessels’ visit to Cuba will also overlap with Biden’s visit to the G7 leaders summit in Italy.”

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recently approved an expansion of a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine for use in at-risk adults over the age of 50.
Manufactured by British multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology company GSK, this vaccine is the first to be approved for adults aged 50–59, targeting a virus known for causing severe respiratory issues, particularly in older adults and those with pre-existing health conditions.
RSV is a common respiratory virus that primarily infects the lungs, nose, throat, and breathing passages. It typically causes mild cold-like symptoms such as a runny nose, fever, cough, and wheezing.
“Today’s approval reflects the importance of broadening the benefits of RSV immunization to adults aged 50-59 who are at increased risk,” said Tony Wood, GSK’s chief scientific officer. “For those with underlying medical conditions, RSV can have serious consequences, so we are proud to be the first to help protect them from RSV-LRTD.”
Professor Ann R. Falsey, University of Rochester School of Medicine, said, “I am thrilled that GSK’s RSV vaccine is now approved for adults aged 50-59 at increased risk of RSV-LRTD. When it comes to the risks associated with RSV, age is just a number, an important number, but not the only factor to consider. Many adults in this age group have underlying health conditions that place them at increased risk for serious illness with RSV infection compared with those without these conditions. Now there is a vaccine approved that can help protect them.”
Now, GSK awaits a recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) immunization advisory committee for those in this age group, according to The Hill.
The CDC panel will also have to consider the potential need for RSV booster shots.
Other major pharmaceutical companies like Moderna and Pfizer also produce RSV vaccines approved for adults older than 60 years. The FDA approved Moderna’s RSV vaccine late last month, making it the third vaccine greenlighted to fight against the disease, following GSK’s Arexvy and Pfizer’s mRESVIA.
In March, The Gateway Pundit reported that the Food and Drug Administration’s advisory committee voted in favor of approving the world’s first respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine for adults 60 and up from Pfizer.
Scientists recommend that older people who received Pfizer’s RSV vaccine should be monitored for Guillain-Barre syndrome.
Specialists who voted against the vaccine based on its safety profile were concerned that it might increase the risk of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a rare neurological disease that can kill nerve cells and lead to muscle weakness or paralysis.

After a days-long manhunt, a woman in Gwinnett County, Georgia was arrested on Friday for throwing Molotov cocktails at 2 homes last weekend. She is being held at Gwinnett County Jail without bail.
Police said Hong T. Huynh, 61, was responsible for the intentional fires.
GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — Gwinnett County police have arrested a woman they say targeted at least two homes with Molotov cocktails.
Investigators say Hong T. Huynh, 61, is responsible for two house fires that were started on purpose over the weekend.
Huynh was arrested on Friday and is being held without bond in the Gwinnett County Jail.
“Fire crews were dispatched to a home on Buckingham Court at 5:45 a.m. on Saturday morning. At 6:04 a.m., firefighters were called to a home on Turners Ridge Drive more than three miles away for another house fire.” WSB-TV 2 reported.
Neighbors had discovered a Molotov cocktail in the front yard of the burnt home. There were bags filled with gasoline and napkins according to one of the neighbors. The nature of the attack appeared to be personal, but no specific motive has been released yet.
One person was seriously injured by the attacks.
Family and witnesses described the moments Huynh threw the Molotov cocktails at the homes.
One woman said she woke up last Saturday morning to flames shooting out of her neighbor’s home.

NBC News reported:
William Anders, an astronaut who was one of the first three people to orbit the moon, and who took the famous “Earthrise” photo, died Friday after a small plane he was in crashed in the water north of Seattle, according to NASA, local officials and his family. He was 90.
The Coast Guard for the Pacific Northwest said just before 1 p.m. local time that it and the San Juan County Sheriff’s Office were responding to a plane crash between Orcas and Jones islands, which are around 80 miles north of Seattle.
The sheriff’s office said only the pilot was believed to have been in the two-seat plane. A body was recovered and the pilot’s identification retrieved, it said.
In 2018, Bill Anders shared his story behind the iconic “Earthrise” photo he took during his lunar orbit.
Anders said he had a 1 in 3 chance of surviving the 1968 lunar orbit.

The former employee, Sawyer Brandt, says that he had left his personal email account logged in on his work computer, and the company went through it to look for communication with Owens.
Owens was fired from the Daily Wire in March, allegedly for declaring that “Christ is King,” which the company deemed “anti-semitic.”
The breakup was far from clean, with the Daily Wire being accused of planting negative stories about Owens in the media — including sending one to the Daily Mail that alleged she was abusive towards junior employees.
Owens addressed the controversy in a live stream on X late last month despite being placed under a gag order by the “pro-free speech” outlet.
“A couple of days ago, my PR person received a tip from someone that a Daily Mail journalist, who I had never heard of, was asking weird questions about me,” she said, surmising the journalist in question was likely writing a hit piece on her. “I want to be clear here: I do not blame the journalist. I don’t blame The Daily Mail.”

— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) May 30, 2024
The Daily Mail reporter’s email claimed junior employees at the Wire said Owens was “mean” and “mistreated” them.
In addition to addressing the issue in her live stream, Owens posted emails from Daily Wire staffers disputing the claims and offering her their support.

— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) May 30, 2024
On Friday, the Daily Wire fired Brandt without warning for sending Owens “moral support” in his private correspondence. The company allegedly claimed he could no longer be trusted for not playing along with their narrative.
In a GoFundMe seeking help while he looks for a new job, Brandt wrote that he said “nothing negative about the Daily Wire” in his email to her.
“My work was pleasant and going fine until I stood up for the character of one of my friends and former superiors, Candace Owens. The Daily Wire did not like this and terminated me on Friday May 31st without warning. I was fired for sending Candace a personal email of moral support when the Daily Mail accused her of abusing her former team. I said nothing negative about the Daily Wire in my email to her. In my meeting with HR, they notified me that they were able to access my private email correspondence because, although I sent the communication from my personal email address on my personal device, I accidentally left my personal email logged into one of their computers. I am still confused as to why stating that I wasn’t abused would be grounds for termination.”
“I was caught off guard by being terminated for standing up for someone’s character and as a Christian, I believe in standing up for the truth and not wavering in my morals,” Brandt continued. “As such, I stand by my decision to support Candace Owens; however, I am now needing some help to pay for food, rent, medical expenses, and my student loans while I am in the transition to a new job.”
The GoFundMe was pulled down by the fundraising platform shortly after this article was published. He has created a new fundraiser on GiveSendGo.
Before his GoFundMe was frozen, someone had anonymously donated the full $5,000 he was seeking under the name “F-ck Ben.”

Says Leo: Must-read article I hope everyone will share with their sleeping friends and family members; If our people knew how close we are to nuclear war they would be in the streets demanding peace talks now!
I’ve been warning for two years about NATO putting itself on an escalator toward World War III. Many people thought I was a little over the top in my analysis, but now suddenly I’m not feeling so alone in my assessment.
Over the last several weeks and months, many other astute observers have finally taken off the blinders, opened their eyes and acknowledged just how close we are to the point of no return in the rush to war with the world’s largest nuclear-armed country, Russia.
I can’t tell you how many times in recent weeks I’ve read or heard comparisons to the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. The only difference is back then we had sane American leaders who realized the importance of diplomacy and talking directly with our adversaries in order to avoid a devastating nuclear exchange.
Some Westerner commentators, even some very smart ones, still deny that nuclear war is a real possibility in today’s world, or if it is, it’s very remote. My sense is that it’s not remote at all, given the leadership we now have in Washington.
If what we’ve seen so far is any indication, the Third World War will start as a conventional war between the U.S./NATO and Russia and quickly escalate to nuclear warheads exploding on military and civilian targets.
Why to I believe this?
It doesn’t matter if you like Putin, hate Putin or are indifferent towards Putin, there are some indisputable facts:
Opposition to nuclear war would seem to be the one issue that could unite the right and left in today’s divided America. We see the left protesting the war in Gaza while ignoring the war in Ukraine, when it’s this European theater that presents the most imminent threat to human life. The American right is always asleep and living in a false sense of security, so that’s no surprise.
Below is an excellent analysis by economist and attorney James Rickards explaining how we got to this point and why it’s not likely to end well.
By James Rickards at The Daily Reckoning
The steady path toward World War III continues. U.S. and NATO support for Ukraine in the war with Russia has been one long failure, but that hasn’t stopped them from escalating the war with new weapons and tactics.
Russia has met the escalation with its own escalation every step of the way. At what point do rational leaders in the West (if there are any left) pause, consider that the war is lost in Ukraine, deescalate and seek a treaty to end the war?
There’s no sign of that yet. In fact, all of the signs point to further escalation, which is a sure path to nuclear war. What good has escalation accomplished?
The West supplied Ukraine with HIMARS precision-guided artillery, but that largely failed because the Russians quickly learned how to jam the GPS guidance systems, so the missiles went off course.
That doesn’t mean the Russians shoot down or jam every HIMARS rocket Ukraine launches. Some will always get through. But overall, their effectiveness has been limited compared with expectations.
The U.S. and NATO also supplied Ukraine with Abrams, Leopard and Challenger tanks and Bradley Fighting Vehicles that have been left burning on the battlefield. They also require intensive maintenance Ukraine can’t necessarily provide, and are often unsuited for the battlefield conditions in Ukraine. Many Ukrainian soldiers have actually expressed a preference for Russian-made equipment over NATO’s.
Meanwhile, the Patriot anti-missiles systems cannot shoot down Russian hypersonic missiles and have been destroyed one-by-one at a cost of $1 billion each. F-16s are the next wonder weapon promised. But Russia fields the most sophisticated air defense system in the world. Many planes will be shot down by Russian S-400 anti-aircraft batteries and other systems.
These planes are also old, obsolete models from NATO inventories at the end of their service lives. And they can’t even be flown by Ukrainian pilots since they barely read English (the training manuals and maintenance manuals are all in English) and have not had enough time to train.
It takes about two years to become a competent F-16 fighter pilot; the Ukrainians have barely had six months to learn. F-16s are also unsuited for the often rugged airfield conditions in Ukraine (they require pristine runways so debris doesn’t get sucked into their engines on takeoff).
They can be operated from NATO bases but that opens another can of worms.
What’s the next harebrained scheme from NATO? Here’s the latest example. The U.S. and its allies have green-lighted missile attacks deep inside Russia using U.S.-made ATACMS ballistic missiles with a range of up to 190 miles.
These attacks have hit civilian targets such as the Russian city of Belgorod and critical military targets such as the Russian nuclear missile radar warning arrays. Both types of attacks are prompting a severe Russian response, including the final destruction of the entire Ukrainian power grid.
The attack on Russia’s early warning system is particularly provocative. Ukraine used U.K.-supplied drones to strike this radar system used by Russia to detect incoming nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missiles.
The U.S. and Russia already adhere to what’s called the “launch on warning” doctrine. This means that if you detect incoming nuclear missiles, you don’t wait for them to hit their targets.
Instead, you launch your counterattack as soon as you detect the missiles. When it comes to nuclear war, it’s use it or lose it.
That puts the world on a hair trigger. Hitting a radar facility that’s part of a nuclear defense creates a blind spot in that defense and makes the hair trigger even more sensitive and launch prone.
And while Ukraine may have technically launched the missiles into Russia, it could not have done so without precise targeting data provided by the U.S. and its NATO allies. How do you think the U.S. would react if Mexico attacked U.S. targets using targeting data provided by Russia? It would directly implicate Russia and hold it responsible.
Here’s another question: Why would Ukraine attack this radar system at all? Ukraine doesn’t have nuclear missiles so it has no reason to compromise Russia’s nuclear defenses. The radar has no impact on the ground war in Ukraine. It wasn’t an airfield or ammo depot or any other militarily relevant target.
This plan is just another example of dangerous escalation by the U.S. and NATO and moves the world one step closer to nuclear war. Ukraine is all too happy to comply.
Proponents of escalation dismiss these concerns, saying we’ve already crossed multiple “red lines” and Russia hasn’t directly retaliated against us. Maybe against Ukraine, but not us. We can therefore go ahead and cross another red line, the Russians won’t do anything.
First off, that just provides more evidence that Vladimir Putin isn’t some bloodthirsty maniac who can’t be deterred. He obviously can be, and clearly recognizes the dangers of escalation. He doesn’t want war with the U.S. and NATO. Why would he?
Secondly, and more importantly, NATO’s arming and equipping of Ukraine was never a red line for Russia. Western observers simply assumed that providing HIMARS, ATACMSs and tanks would be red lines for Russia. But Russia never specifically said they were. They warned about the overall threat of escalation, but these weren’t specific red lines.
But direct attacks on Russian soil are a different matter. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Putin himself have issued specific warnings about NATO facilitation of attacks within Russia itself. That’s the difference. Here’s what Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, had to say:
Russia regards all long-range weapons used by Ukraine as already being directly controlled by servicemen from NATO countries. This is no military assistance, this is participation in a war against us. And such actions could well become a casus belli. Nobody today can rule out the conflict’s transition to its final stage.
It doesn’t take a genius to understand what he means by the conflict’s “final stage.” Now, Medvedev often issues provocative statements. But listen to the comments of Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov. It’s about as strongly worded as a diplomatic statement can get:
I would like to warn American leaders against miscalculations that could have fatal consequences. For unknown reasons, they underestimate the seriousness of the rebuff they may receive.
Except the reasons aren’t unknown. It’s because the West is led by incompetent and reckless people who don’t know what they’re doing. They don’t understand that they’re playing with fire.
I began studying nuclear war fighting in 1969 and have continued my studies for decades, which includes all the leading thinkers about nuclear war. While the experts disagree in certain respects, they all agree on one thing:
The most likely path to nuclear war is escalation. No one wakes up and says, “Nice day for a nuclear war. Let’s start one.”
Instead, war will be the result of a process of one side raising the stakes, the other side responding in kind and escalating further and so on in successive rounds until one party is backed into a corner and has no choice but to use nuclear weapons in an existential response.
Ironically, in that situation, the party that is less threatened may actually start the nuclear war in order to get the first-strike advantage. The result is annihilation: not just World War III, but possibly the end of most human life on Earth. Those that survive would probably wish they hadn’t.
This is incomprehensible. Ukraine is trying to drag the U.S. directly into the war with U.S. boots on the ground. Events may not get that far.
We may be destroyed in a nuclear World War III if this reckless escalation continues. Will anyone stop it?

Texas DPS have been hard at work with Operation Lonestar, protecting their citizens and cracking down on illegals in their state.
In early June, DPS was chasing a vehicle full of illegals in Webb County. During the pursuit, illegals started to bail out of the vehicle as the smuggler was slowing down at turns. Video footage even shows some of them falling out of the vehicle. When the smuggler finally stopped, he fled toward a neighborhood.
They were only able to capture a total of 5 illegals which were then handed over to the Border Patrol. The rest of them were able to escape going through the neighborhood.

Since the Biden regime was installed in January 2021, an estimated 10 to 12 million illegals have invaded the US. Some estimates go to 15 million or higher.
That number equals about the population of 41 individual states.

Saturday’s presser was part of Biden’s 5-day trip to France where he attended D-Day ceremonies in Normandy and held meetings with Emmanuel Macron.
Biden claimed he’s a “student of French history” during Saturday’s presser.
“It was a moving experience for a student of French history to be at the Champs-Élysées today. It was a moving experience for the whole delegation,” Biden said.
Biden is a student of French history, was raised by Puerto Ricans, attended a black church growing up, and was a star football player.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 8, 2024
The reference to ‘beagles’ traces back to an exclusive report from The Gateway Pundit in 2021. The report was based on findings by The White Coat Waste Project, a taxpayer watchdog group that advocates for reducing wasteful government spending on animal testing.
According to documents uncovered by the organization, the NIAID, under Dr. Fauci’s leadership, had allocated part of a $375,800 grant to a lab in Tunisia for experimentation on beagles. The grant money was used to infest beagles with parasites as part of a study published last month.
The details of the experiment are disturbing. The beagles were subjected to torturous conditions, including having their heads locked in mesh cages filled with infected sandflies. These parasite-carrying insects were allowed to feast on the dogs alive.
There was a photo of the test, which is sure to haunt anyone with a conscience.
This recent tweet follows a history of Musk's criticisms of Fauci, including a 2022 tweet where Musk explicitly called for Fauci to be prosecuted, adding, "Truth resonates…"

CBS is reporting that Caitlin Clark, the women’s basketball player in history, is being left off of the Olympic team.
A bunch of women basketball players who most people don’t even know will be representing the US Olympic team in Paris in 2024. Caitlin Clark will not be one of them.
CBS Sports reported (per The Gateway Pundit):
Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark is expected to be left off the Team USA women’s basketball roster for the upcoming Summer Olympics in Paris, David Eickholt of 247Sports confirms.
USA Today’s Christine Brennan first reported shortly after midnight Saturday.
Clark became the college basketball all-time leading scorer earlier this year, and she is currently putting up some impressive numbers in the WNBA.
In her first 14 games, she has averaged 16.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.5 steals per game. She has also already put up two 30-point games — one of them being during the Fever’s 85-83 win over the Washington Mystics in which she reached a career-high seven 3-pointers. With that performance, Clark became the fastest rookie in WNBA history to record 200+ points and 50+ assists.
The list of women on the US basketball roster is reportedly as follows:
Caitlyn Jenner weighed in on this outrageous news, “Boom! I strongly strongly agree with your take. i am gonna hold back as hard as I can on what I think of these ‘decision makers’. This makes my blood boil.

David Portnoy from Barstool Sports had this to say about the news:
“All right. I’m at Saratoga Belmont Day. Looking spectacular, per usual shoes, bang. But this is about Caitlin Clark being left off the Olympic team. How dumb are these women? How dumb? I don’t know who’s making the decision, women’s Olympic Committee, whatever it is. I don’t care if you don’t think Caitlin Clark talent-wise belongs on this team, even though she does put up 37 to 13, like the most points in the history of the league for a rookie.
None of it matters. These women, and I love women, I’m a pro-woman-guy, women-guy. They complain and they cry about equal rights, equal wages, blah, blah, blah, blah. Hey, dummies, for the first time in the history of basketball, you have arguably a player who is the most popular player in the world.
You could argue right now, Caitlin Clark is the most talked about, discussed, most popular, most puts asses in the seats, single basketball player in the world. You could argue that. Yeah, you could say maybe LeBron, Luca, whatever you want, but you can argue it. And you leave her off the Olympic team. It’s not only a showcase for her, it’s for the sport and the other WNBA players who are on this team.
How dumb, how brain dead, how idiotic do the people running this thing have to be? It was one thing after another with her. The business part of my brain is like, these people, and maybe it’s guy, whoever it is, I don’t ever want to hear you complain about flying commercial or not getting salaries or this, that.
You’re too dumb. You’re too dumb. You have a cash cow. This can bring the Olympic basketball, women’s basketball, be like the number one thing people watch with Caitlin Clark. As it is, I’d rather watch grass grow. I’d rather watch paint dry. I’d rather watch dirt just be moved around because Caitlin Clark is not on the team. If she’s there, it’s appointment TV. You people, whoever did this, honestly, hey, take your brain, put it in a museum, and study it for how dumb you are.”

In total points scored this season, Clark is 7th in the WNBA. Only four women selected to the Olympic team are ahead of Clark (Copper, Stewart, Collier, and Wilson).
In scoring average per game Clark is 13th in the WNBA. Only 8 girls on the Olympic Team have game averages in scoring better than Clark (Wilson, Copper, Collier, Stewart, Lloyd, Plum, Young and Ionescu).
In three pointers made this season, Clark is second in the WNBA. No woman on the Olympic team has made more 3’s than Caitlin Clark!
In three pointers made per game this year in the WNBA, Clark is 4th in the league. Only two women on the Olympic team averaged more 3s made per game than Caitlin Clark (Plum and Taurasi).
In total assists to date this year in the WNBA, Clark is 3rd in the League. Only one woman on the Olympic team has more assists than Caitlin Clark this year (Thomas).
In assists per game this year in the WNBA, Clark is 4th in the WNBA. Only two woman on the Olympic team have more assists per game (Thomas and Young).
Despite these numbers and breaking nearly every scoring and assist record imaginable during her illustrious career at Iowa, Caitlin Clark is not on the Olympic team. This is a travesty.

Matthew Graves (US Attorney for District of Columbia) is notorious for standing by and doing nothing while hundreds of BLM and Antifa followers attacked the White House and attempted to burn a church to the ground during the 2020 riots.
Graves continues his “look away” approach with a Pro-Hamas protestor. On November 15th 2023 a man named Ruben Arthur Camacho punched a female Capitol police officer in the face during a Pro-Hamas protest. Recently, his sentence of 48 Hours Community Service was handed down by none other than Matthew Graves.
Never before has the 2-tiered justice system been more markedly on display with how this sentence compares to the treatment of President Trump and the J6ers. What if your loved one was at the epicenter of that statement? Now J6ers share 2 words, bringing proof to all Americans that the Scales of Justice are clearly favoring one side vs the other. Those 2 words are:
Matthew. Graves.
This is the same D.A. that relentlessly went after anyone at the Capitol on January 6th, sending them to Federal Court on similar or lesser charges than Camacho, who was sent to the Local Court by Graves. The resulting plea deals for J6ers contain years of federal prison time, compared to Camacho’s 48 Hours of Community Service. This has ruthlessly tormented J6ers and their families. And now, we have living proof of that.
J6er fiancé, Desiree, wrote about the stark difference on how Matthew Graves treats Camacho vs. her J6er, Barry Ramey:
The same Matthew Graves that gave Pro-Hamas Protestor Ruben Camacho 48 hours of Community Service for attacking Capitol police, wanted to put my fiancé, Barry Ramey, in prison for up to 15 years for an alleged squirt of pepper spray on January 6th, but this was only after Capitol police began firing tear gas and rubber munitions at J6 protestors while singing the National Anthem! Mr. Graves put on him, aggravated assault with a deadly dangerous weapon causing serious bodily injury and harm. That is only 1 ½ steps below attempt of murder!
We’ve seen even lesser charges for other J6ers getting months in prison. And Matthew Graves is leading the charge against J6ers with a heavy hand. It’s enraging to watch Pro-Hamas Protestor receive 48 hours of Community Service for punching a Capitol officer in the face from Graves, yet J6ers are held to the fire!

Barry went to trial and was thankfully found “not guilty” of the more serious charges and found guilty of the lesser charge which he was never arguing. A clear example of an egregiously unjust approach Mr. Graves took towards my J6er fiancée vs. Pro-Hamas protestor is detailed in this side-by-side comparison showing what Barry has been through, followed by what I have been subjected to by the departments following Graves’ lead.
This doesn’t stop with Barry. No, Mr. Graves’ approach has caused the FBI to harass me, and I was not at the Rally on January 6th. Earlier this year Barry was told to call me from prison, to tell me to remove a post from my social media that created awareness on the outrageous legal & incarceration related expenses our family has been up against and us not being a fan of Biden. And, if he didn’t make that call to me, he could be shipped to a max-security prison and all communication with between us would be denied (mail, email, phone & visits).
Our family still lives in a lurking fear this could still happen. But we stand strong, by the grace of God. And as Barry maintains a humor I so admire, he’s said to me, “We will never take a knee to Communism. We don’t work for the NFL.” So, here we are looking at Mr. Graves and Mr. Camacho and painstakingly reminded this is Communism.
To date, Barry is appealing some aspects of his conviction and we are filing FOIA requests. With deep prayer and love for the Lord we are thankful we have received help from many in the community. We are about half way to our fundraising goal which helps cover legal expense debt we have incurred, provide food & basic necessities to Barry while incarcerated and the small amount of monthly bills he left behind.
It has taken everything we have and so much more to continue this fight. We know God is guiding us and we will not give up. With half way to reach our goal we still need your help and appreciate all donations and prayers that have helped support this battle, thus far and yet to come.
May God bless our supporters, the J6ers, President Trump & his Family and may God Bless America!

City prosecutors and police opposed the expungements.
Immediately after the judge’s ruling, Mark McCloskey demanded that the city return the two guns seized as part of his 2021 guilty plea to misdemeanor assault.
Republican Gov. Mike Parson pardoned the couple weeks after the plea.
“It’s time for the city to cough up my guns,” he told the Post-Dispatch.
If it doesn’t, he said, he’ll file a lawsuit.
The McCloskeys maintain that they felt threatened by the protesters who were walking by their home in June of 2020 on their way to the mayor’s house nearby.

The protest stemmed from George Floyd’s controversial passing, which sparked riots and protests all across America.
It was one of hundreds of demonstrations around the country after the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
The couple also said the group was trespassing on a private street.
McCloskey came out of his home with an AR-15-style rifle, and Patricia displayed a semiautomatic pistol.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson wants to look good while his city burns around him.
According to election board records, Johnson spent $30,000 on hair and makeup during his first year in office.
The Chicago Sun-Times reports that the majority of the money went to makeup artist and self-described “skincare enthusiast” Denise Milloy’s Makeup Majic. The business is based in a home on the city’s South Side, and records show that more than 30 payments were reported to her in 2023 and 2024.
While a campaign spokesman asserted that “Hair and makeup services are commonplace among high-ranking public officials,” Johnson appears to spend more than other elected officials.
Johnson’s predecessor Lori Lightfoot paid an Evanston business about $2,000 total for “event-makeup services” listed under four expenditures last year in her campaign filings.
Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle paid $217 to a South Side woman in 2019 for makeup, she reported.
Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s campaign fund, which he largely underwrites through his own personal fortune, has made 11 payments totaling $6,000 to a South Side beauty salon between 2018 and 2022 for “hair and makeup” for “events like TV shoots,” according to records and interviews.
Paul Vallas, who lost to Johnson in last year’s mayoral election, didn’t provide any details for hundreds of campaign expenditures beyond saying they were for “services.” But Vallas says he doesn’t think he spent anything on hair or makeup through his campaign, noting that he’s bald: “I’d like to take credit for being frugal, but nature took care of that.”

Does the mayor think about what is happening to his city while he is getting pampered? Like the 41 shootings and 9 fatalities that happened over Memorial Day weekend, according to the Chicago Police Department.
Or the mother who lost her unborn child after being attacked by teens screaming, “We own the street!”
Is he pondering the recent Chicago’s Office of Inspector General (OIG) report warning that the city and the Chicago Police Department (CPD) are unprepared for the protestors who will descend on the city for the Democratic National Convention in August?
Or is he just making sure he looks camera-ready?

In a recent encounter with a TMZ reporter, model and actress Amber Rose passionately defended her endorsement of former President Donald Trump, stating that she and others are “no longer brainwashed” by the left.
The Gateway Pundit reported last month that Rose sent leftists into a total meltdown when she publicly endorsed Trump in a post to her 24 million Instagram followers. Alongside a photo of herself standing with Trump and Melania at a black tie event, she wrote, “Trump 2024 [US flags emoji].”
Rose, who is also known for her activism on women’s rights issues and is the wife of rapper Wiz Khalifa, urged her followers to reassess their loyalty to the Democratic Party.
She criticized Joe Biden’s commitment to black communities and emphasized her priorities, saying, “Lmaooo yall think Biden cares about black ppl??? Sad. Do ur research. I did,” she wrote. “I’ll ALWAYS put women first.”
She further criticized the left’s stance on reproductive rights and the issue of transgender athletes competing against females in sports. “Y’all want biological men in women’s sports,” Rose continued. “Trump supports the most reasonable compromise on abortion. Stop being brainwashed cuz WE’RE ppl people of color. Make your own decisions.”
Recently, Rose was ambushed by a TMZ reporter who questioned her endorsement of Trump.
TMZ Reporter: A lot of people were shocked with your endorsement of Donald Trump. I mean, you’re all about women’s rights issues. What was the reason for the big change?
Amber Rose: Is Donald Trump not for women’s rights issues?
TMZ Reporter: I guess a lot of people were asking.
Amber Rose: He’s trying to ‘Make America Great Again.’ That’s for women, too, right?
TMZ Reporter: That’s true.
Rose’s unwavering stance continued as the conversation touched on Trump’s controversial past and legal challenges. Despite these hurdles, Rose argued that such challenges only strengthen the resolve of Trump’s supporters.
TMZ Reporter: I know. Does him getting convicted change the way you view him?
Amber Rose: No, not at all.
TMZ Reporter: I mean, do you think you’ll help his chances, like getting reelected or you’ll hurt him?
Amber Rose: I think it helps him more. Oh, it helps him more. Yeah, absolutely. I think people see the injustice and what happened, and they want to vote for him more than ever.
Rose also pointed to a broader shift in the political landscape, suggesting that more celebrities and influential figures are turning towards Trump due to disillusionment with mainstream media propaganda and Democratic failed policies.
TMZ Reporter: I know. I wanted to ask you. So it seems like a lot of celebrities are voting for Trump now. Why do you think people are changing their way of voting?
Amber Rose: I think we just did our research, and we’re not brainwashed anymore by the left. I can say that about myself. All these years, I’ve been brainwashed, and I’m not anymore. So.
I wish more celebrities possessed both the fortitude and the discernment that Amber Rose demonstrates. pic.twitter.com/hmzeQy4c8y

The UK snap General Elections, set for the 4th of July, have so far turned into a continuous debacle for the Conservative Party of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
After the Premier’s blunder on D-Day, in which he left the celebration early to return to London to record an interview has turned into a major controversy, many news sites are saying that Sunak’s chances are over.
The Guardian brings a collection of headlines that illustrate this. The leftist paper itself leads with ‘Furious Tories turn on Sunak over D-day snub’, reporting that the prime minister has ‘provoked fury’.
The Express talks about the prime ministers’ apology with the headline ‘Truly Sorry!’, while The Mirror declares that ‘Sunak’s D-Day shame’ means that ‘It’s over’ for him.
Scotland’s Daily Record makes a pun with ‘war hero’ and calls Sunak ‘War Zero’ as its headline.
The FT Weekend says ‘Sunak accused of handing ‘gift’ to [Nigel Farage’s] Reform party by skipping D-Day event’.
And in the Daily Star, the headline is ‘Stupid Boy’, with a mock-up of Sunak in a scene from the old sitcom ‘Dad’s Army’.
Meanwhile, Reform UK’s Nigel Farage was declared the winner of the BBC’s seven-party debate on Friday night, according to a viewer poll.
The line-up featured a member from the ruling Conservative Party, as well as representatives from Labour, Liberal Democrats, SNP, Welsh Nationalist Plaid Cymru, Green Party and Reform’s Farage.
Bloomberg reported:
“The poll, conducted by researchers More In Common, asked more than 1,000 viewers who won the debate with 25% of those surveyed opting for Mr Farage. Among those who voted Conservative in 2019, 47% placed the Reform leader at the top of the pile.”
14% said there was no winner, and just 7% of the surveyed said Conservatives were the winner of the debate.
“Mr. Farage focused on immigration and crime throughout the debate, at one point claiming he was “on a platform tonight with six other people whose parties have been wholly unconcerned” with immigration.”
Farage said that he wanted to inject ‘some logic’ into the discussion.
“The Reform UK leader said later in the debate ‘you can go shoplifting now, any of you’, advocating for more stop and search powers while answering a question about crime allegedly rising in England and Wales by 8% since 2019.
‘You can go out and nick up to 200 quid’s worth without being prosecuted’, he said. ‘We are seeing a decline, a societal decline of law and order in this country and, frankly, government and the police forces are being too scared of what needs to be done’.”
In his closing statement, Farage urged voters to join his ‘revolt’ against the establishment.

Joe Biden is not letting government incompetence prevent them from achieving their goal of destroying the American auto industry and forcing ordinary citizens to drive inefficient electric vehicles.
As the Daily Mail reported, the Transportation Department issued a mandate on Friday for automakers to squeeze another 16 miles per gallon out of their cars to remain in business. At the same time, they must double the fuel efficiency of their trucks.
This is the Regime’s latest push to ensure all Americans have no choice but to use electric vehicles by 2032 as the outlet notes. It also comes as the Biden regime finalized a slate of economically crippling environmental regulations curbing gas-powered vehicle tailpipe emissions less than two months ago.
Here is more from the Mail on the new mandate:
The latest rules impose average miles per gallon limits across manufacturers’ entire product lines, so if they make more electric vehicles, they will find it easier to meet the targets.
Their passenger cars will have to average 65 miles per gallon by 2031, up from 48.7 miles today.
Pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles will have to average 45 miles rather than the 35.1 miles today.
But heavy-duty pickup trucks and large vans will have to nearly double their fuel efficiency from 18.8 to 35 miles per gallon
The Transportation Department estimates the regulations will save eight billion tons of carbon emissions by around 2050.
This new scheme comes as the Biden regime admitted last week that only seven electric charging stations have been built since the $1 trillion Bipartisan “Infrastructure” Bill was signed into law by Biden in November 2021. The legislation had authorized the federal government to build 500,000 EV charging ports by 2030.
Radical-left Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR), one of Congress’s leading climate alarmists, angrily lashed out during a Senate hearing on Wednesday while sharing news of this unsurprising government debacle.
“That’s just pathetic,” Merkley said. “Something is terribly wrong, and it needs to be fixed.”
Biden has taken Merkley’s fury to heart, and ordinary Americans will once again pay a heavy price. The only sure way to reverse this madness is by electing Donald Trump in November.

A cruel school bully was caught on tape savagely assaulting a teen girl at a Massachusetts high school and forcing her to engage in a disgusting act, possibly leading to the victim’s disappearance for several days.
As WCVB reported Wednesday, the Mashpee police department’s school resource officer learned about an assault at Mashpee High School in Cape Cod on May 25 that involved two students. A video of the incident was posted on Snapchat.
As one will see in the video, 15-year-old Aliyah Konton was not only savagely beaten by the young thug but forced to lick a filthy bathroom floor as well. An accomplice of the bully gleefully films the entire sequence.
The footage starts with Aliyah standing in a school corridor as her assailant approaches and then violently slaps her victim in the face before walking away.
The video then moves to the school bathroom, where Aliyah’s tormentor is seen dragging the screaming teen by her hair like a cavewoman.
WATCH:
Aliyah starts crying as she is tossed towards the cubicles at the end of the room. Her bully then slugs her in the face again.
The girl’s attacker proceeds to rain blows on her head before suddenly pointing at the floor by the garbage can. “Lick the ground!” she says.
Aliyah initially refuses and is smacked on her head once more. The bully responds by grabbing her hair and forcing her face to the floor.
Aliyah subsequently vanished on Sunday before being found safe on Wednesday after an extensive search. It’s unclear at this point whether her disappearance is linked to the school assault, but it’s hard to imagine they are not related.
Mashpee Police Chief Scott W. Carline released a written statement announcing that they have filed charges against Aliyah’s bully, who is a 13-year-old teen girl.
As a result of this investigation, seven counts of Assault and Battery (M.G.L. Chapter 265 Section 13A)have been filed in the Falmouth District Court Juvenile Division against a thirteen-year-old juvenile female involved in this incident.
The Mashpee police department said the investigation into potential accomplices remains ongoing.
The superintendent said she had no comment regarding the incident at a Mashpee School Committee meeting Wednesday evening.

J6er Treniss Evans, through his legal advocacy group Condemned USA, filed a Supreme Court petition on Friday aimed squarely at halting the controversial New York case against President Donald Trump.
Evans’ petition contends that allowing New York to proceed would create inconsistent interpretations of federal law across states, undermining national legal uniformity and fairness. The petition seeks an immediate stay of the trial proceedings in New York, requesting that the Supreme Court intervene to prevent further potential injustice.
Evans also requests a comprehensive review of the trial record, arguing that Trump may be entitled to a writ of habeas corpus — a fundamental safeguard against unlawful and indefinite imprisonment.
The petition invokes the Supreme Court’s ruling in Norma Jean Anderson v. Trump, which held that state courts lack subject matter jurisdiction to enforce a non-uniform version of federal law.
According to Evans, the New York trial misinterprets and inconsistently applies federal campaign finance law, violating the principle of judicial estoppel established in Anderson v. Trump.
Evans alleges violations of the Fourteenth Amendment’s equal protection and due process clauses, suggesting potential bias and selective prosecution by the New York District Attorney.
The State of New York’s attempt to prosecute Trump using federal campaign finance law is preempted by federal jurisdiction, according to Evans. He argues that since both the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) declined to pursue the matter, it falls outside the state’s jurisdiction.
Evans claims that New York is prosecuting misdemeanor crimes beyond the statute of limitations, further alleging inconsistent application of federal campaign finance law.
Finally, Evans argues that New York’s actions impact voters nationwide, warranting the Supreme Court’s intervention. This, Evans argues, undermines the democratic process and infringes upon voters’ constitutional rights.
In an X post, Evans wrote, “Supreme Court Petition FILED TODAY to stop the NEW YORK TRUMP CASE! WE THE PEOPLE ARE BEING DISENFRANCHISED AS VOTERS. Show your support for Condemned USA as we move to seek justice at the United States Supreme Court.”

Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) has said that he does not believe data indicating that Joe Biden is losing support among African-Americans.
Speaking to CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, Clyburn blamed “faulty polling” for Biden’s apparent struggles as multiple polls suggest that he has lost significant ground since the 2020 presidential election.
“How far does President Biden’s message on democracy go when Trump is still leading Biden in several battleground state polls and just raked in a massive fundraising haul off of this felony conviction?” Blitzer asked.
Clyburn responded:
I am not all that concerned about the polling taking place now. I remember the poling over there in Maryland a few weeks ago when the candidate who’s down five and won by 13. There’s something going on with polling today that I don’t think we have taken into account. If you’re pulling people with landlines and there’s so many people with landlines, I’m not too sure we can get an accurate poll.
I know this what I keep hearing about the loss of support among African-Americans by Joe Biden is not when I’m hearing you want to go into barbershops as I go into churches, my Sunday polls, I don’t hear that. So I’m not sure what’s going on with polling today, but I think that Joe Biden is in a very good place. I think it’s faulty polling. I just don’t see anything else.

While polling surveys can sometimes be faulty, the sheer volume of data suggests that Clyburn is clinging on to false hope.
According to a poll from The Wall Street Journal, Donald Trump has doubled his support among black voters since 2020, with another survey from Rasmussmen even indicating he may be in the lead among black voters altogether.
Even the Democratic-aligned NBC network admitted last year that Biden’s approval among black voters was down a whopping 17 points since the start of his presidency and has likely fallen even further since then.

But despite holding ALL of the major collegiate scoring records for women’s basketball EVER and leading the NCAA in assists in her last year – Caitlin Clark was omitted from the US Women’s Basketball Team it was announced today.
Caitlin Clark was invited to attend Team USA training camp in April, but was unable to attend due to her team’s trip to the NCAA Tournament final.
Here is the roster… Most of these names you HAVE NEVER heard of.
How many of these women are National Anthem kneelers who despise their country?
CBS Sports reported:
Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark is expected to be left off the Team USA women’s basketball roster for the upcoming Summer Olympics in Paris, David Eickholt of 247Sports confirms.
USA Today’s Christine Brennan first reported shortly after midnight Saturday.
Clark became the college basketball all-time leading scorer earlier this year, and she is currently putting up some impressive numbers in the WNBA.
In her first 14 games, she has averaged 16.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.5 steals per game. She has also already put up two 30-point games — one of them being during the Fever’s 85-83 win over the Washington Mystics in which she reached a career-high seven 3-pointers. With that performance, Clark became the fastest rookie in WNBA history to record 200+ points and 50+ assists.
Nice job, idiots!
What a HUGE mistake.
When Caitlin Clark hit her third 3-pointer in four minutes in the third quarter, the crowd of over 20,000 immediately erupted in celebration.
With the noise, you would’ve thought it was a home game. But it wasn’t — it’s just what Clark draws.

In a terrifying event caught on camera, flames were seen shooting from an Air Canada Boeing jet during takeoff, forcing the plane to make an emergency landing. The incident involved Flight AC872, which was en route from Toronto to Paris late Wednesday.
The video shows the shocking moment when flames erupted at the aircraft’s wing fuel tanks just after it left the runway.
Speaking to CP24, Air Canada confirmed in a statement that the flames resulted from an unspecified “engine issue” that occurred immediately after takeoff. The Boeing 777 aircraft had 389 passengers onboard at the time of the incident.
“After the aircraft landed, it was inspected by airport response vehicles as per normal operating processes, and it taxied to the gate on its own,” said a representative from Air Canada. “The aircraft will be taken out of service for further evaluation by our maintenance and engineering professionals.”
The airline said that all passengers were rebooked on a different flight departing from Toronto later that evening.
A spokesperson for Toronto Pearson International Airport also confirmed to CP24 that the plane landed safely and was met by the fire department upon landing. The investigation into what caused this mid-air horror is ongoing.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that a severe and potentially catastrophic flaw has been identified in nearly 300 Boeing 777 jets operated by major airlines, including United and American Airlines.
This flaw, rooted in an electrical issue, poses a risk of causing the aircraft’s wing fuel tanks to ignite and explode, an investigation by Daily Mail has disclosed.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) highlighted this concern in a notice issued on March 25, 2024, which revealed that an “electrostatic discharge” near the center-wing fuel tanks could act as an ignition source, leading to a possible fire or explosion.

Intellectual Froglegs comes out with his latest video — WAR.
Joe Dan Gorman released the latest Intellectual Froglegs video. Again, it’s an award-winning effort.
Joe Dan Gorman shares this at Intellectual Froglegs:
The massive level of fraud that’s been perpetrated against us is not even believable. The illusion of freedom. The illusion of electing a president. The illusion of justice… the innocent are persecuted and the guilty roam free.
And all while these evil people were commandeering the levers of government power… they were simultaneously maintaining the illusion that we were a free country….
The battle will be fierce, it will be difficult for many, but failure is not a choice.
We must keep our wits during this critical time. We do that with truth. And for that, I turn to God.
…Look at our timeline going back to 1776— we are in this ungodly mess because, in the mid-20th century, America turned away from God. And we need to turn back.
2024 requires that I do more episodes… so we’re going to pick up the frequency of intellectual froglegs and bring you calls to action and other patriotic activities as only intellectual froglegs can.
In closing, the financial health of Intellectual Froglegs is directly related to the financial health of our viewers…and these are tough times for a lot of us. For the first time in years, the Frogleg coffers are in the danger zone.
So for the next year, EVERYONE that donates will be in the CREDITS of the next show. To remain anonymous, drop a quick email to IntellectualFroglegs@gmail.com
Thank you for your support… and thank you for fighting to save our nation.
God bless you guys… and God bless our nation.

As reported earlier…
On October 7th, Hamas terrorists launched a massive surprise attack on civilians in Israel.
One of the targets attacked was a nature party in the desert with thousands of young people in attendance.
The terrorists flew paragliders into the party on and slaughtered nearly 300 of the 3,600 partygoers.
The killers also raped the young beautiful women and took dozens of hostages.
A haunting image of Noa Argamani, 26, at the moment of her capture at the party, horrified the world.
The video portrayed the brutality of the Hamas killers.
Argamani pleaded with the terrorists while being held on the back of a motorbike, ‘Don’t kill me!’
Now, the terrorists have released a new video in which Argamani is forced to say that two of her fellow captives are dead, allegedly by IDF strikes.
Earlier in the day, Hamas released a video showing three hostages, Argamani, Yossi Sharabi, 53, and Itai Svirsky, 38, and asked, “What do you think?’ The sick goal seemed to guess who, if any, of the three remained alive.
Exactly 100 days after October 7th, Hamas released a video showing three of the Israeli hostages, Noa Argamani, 26, Yossi Sharabi, 53, and Itai Svirsky, 38.

A second video emerged later in the day showing Argamani, forced under duress, to share the heartbreaking news that Sharabi and Svirsky are dead.
Further, she was coerced into blaming their deaths on Israeli strikes.
In a stomach churning video reminiscent of a “Jigsaw” movie, Hamas releases footage of Noa Argamani announcing her fellow hostages Yossi Sharabi and Itay Svirsky were killed.

The Jerusalem Post provided a partial transcript of Argamani’s remarks:
“I was located in a building,” Argamani said in the Hamas video. “It was bombed by an IDF airstrike, an F16 fighter jet. Three rockets were fired. Two of the rockets exploded, and the other didn’t. We were in the building with Al Qassam soldiers and three hostages: Myself, Noa Argamani, Itai Svirsky, and Yossef Sharabi.
“After the building we were in was hit, we were all buried under rubble. Al Qassam soldiers saved my life, and Itai’s, unfortunately, we were not able to save Yossi’s.
“After many days…two nights, Itai and I were relocated to another place. While we were being transported, Itai was hit by an IDF airstrike. He did not survive.”
Argamani added, “Itai Svirsky and Yossi Sharabi….They died because of our own IDF airstrikes. Stop this madness and bring us home to our families. While we are still alive, bring us home.”
Despite the coerced video, the death of the two hostages has not been confirmed.
With their long track record of engaging in psychological warfare, it could be just another sick mind game by the terrorist organization.

In a contentious case involving the Health Freedom Defense Fund and other plaintiffs versus the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), the court acknowledged the plaintiffs’ claim that the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines do not meet the traditional definition of vaccines because they do not prevent the spread of the virus but only mitigate symptoms.
The case revolved around the LAUSD’s COVID-19 vaccination policy, which required all employees to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by a specified deadline.
The case, brought by the Health Freedom Defense Fund and several individuals, argues that the LAUSD’s vaccination mandate interferes with their fundamental right to refuse medical treatment. The plaintiffs assert that the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines merely mitigate symptoms rather than prevent infection or transmission, which they claim does not align with the traditional definition of a vaccine.
In its decision, the 9th Circuit highlighted that the district court had misapplied the precedent set by Jacobson v. Massachusetts, which upheld mandatory smallpox vaccinations due to their effectiveness in preventing disease spread. The court noted that the plaintiffs’ claims, taken as true at this stage, suggest that the COVID-19 vaccines do not effectively “prevent the spread” of COVID-19, thereby warranting further consideration of their allegations.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) had modified the definition of “vaccine” to include the mRNA shots.
So, look at what the CDC did. Here’s the definition the CDC used on 26 August 2021:
Rather than admit the COVID-19 vaccine is not working as advertised, the CDC took a page out of Orwell’s 1984 and opted for new spin language.
Here is the new definition:
It can be recalled that Pfizer’s President of International Developed Markets, Janine Small, admitted in an EU hearing that the vaccine had never been tested on its ability to prevent transmission, contrary to what was previously advertised.
Judge R. Nelson, writing for the court, pointed out that the Jacobson ruling was based on the public health rationale of preventing disease spread, a criterion the plaintiffs allege the COVID-19 vaccines do not meet.
Judge Collins, in a concurring opinion, emphasized that compulsory medical treatments for individual health benefits infringe upon the fundamental right to refuse such treatments, aligning with constitutional principles protecting personal liberty.
The Appeals Court’s decision sends the case back to the district court, requiring further proceedings that adhere to the higher scrutiny applicable to the plaintiffs’ claims.
More from Tracy Beanz:
Plaintiffs allege that the COVID-19 shot isn’t a vaccine, but a therapeutic. The court MUST accept that statement as TRUE at this stage of the suit. Because they must accept it as TRUE (they aren’t DECIDING FACTS) – they remanded the case back down to the district court. This thread is really good, but I already see people running wild with this.
There are several concerning things here, one of which is very old and relates to smallpox. The SCOTUS had ruled that a compulsory mandate for the smallpox vaccine was constitutional because the public safety risk SUPERSEDED individual liberty. That’s the ruling that the defendants in this case used to justify their motion to dismiss.
But because the Plaintiffs here argue the therapeutic route (with CDC proof of their claims) the SCOTUS decision doesn’t apply. The 9th wrote that the district court erred in their interpretation.
Also, not so fast on this, because if the case holds on this precedent, all that will happen is that the government will say that EVERY vaccine is effective at preventing spread to get around this, and NEVER say they aren’t effective at preventing spread and are *just* effective at preventing severe disease.
In short, while this decision from the 9th is very encouraging, it DOES NOT determine that the COVID shots can’t be mandated because they don’t prevent COVID. It merely says “the plaintiffs say that this is a therapeutic, and at this stage we have to accept that as true, so this case must continue and has merits. Have at it again, lower court)
You can read the full ruling below:
Disclaimer: This article has been updated to clarify that the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals did not definitively state that the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines do not qualify as traditional vaccines. Instead, the court allowed the plaintiffs’ allegations—that the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines are not traditional vaccines because they do not effectively prevent the spread of the virus—to be considered plausible at this stage of the litigation.

There is an undeniable cycle of a nation’s lifespan that is sadly chronicled. The birth of a great nation is an exhilarating read. The ascendancy of a nation to “super-power” status is exciting. But the ascendant status is tenuous at best. Just as the rise of a nation to superpower status evolves, so is the loss of that status as the national greatness devolves into anarchy. Repeatedly, undeniably, and inescapably, the national degeneracy that subtly began becomes a juggernaut, and the once great “superpower” has become a “failed nation.” The greatness remains only in the past. The present is turbulent. The future portends absolute erasure.
In recent days we have celebrated the heroism that is framed by “D-Day.” That heroism is supported by endless journal entries from all “fronts” and all “wars.” Take a sociological look and contrast the culture then and now; the religious devotion then and now; the mutual respect then and now; the political commitment to the electorate then and now; the tolerance for immorality, crime and inhumanity then and now. The sad conclusion is that the greatness then has devolved into an abysmal failure now.
Only those unwilling to accept the facts of reality, who rest apathetically and ignorantly anticipate a “better” tomorrow think things are good. Incredibly these applaud the devolving culture and congratulate the uptick in criminal behavior and cheer the erasure of the governing statutes that secure personal freedoms. These curse the history that melded our nation’s greatness. These invent a “new perspective” that further corrupts the truth. These see no need to change. These see no corruption in the government that was established to serve the people but has now morphed into an imperial Government demanding that the people serve the Elite. Such a governing is no longer a governing “of,” “for,” and “by” the people, but it has devolved into a governing of tyrannical bureaucratic censure that ignores the “inalienable rights” with which every human is endowed.
The political Elite no longer praises the challenge: “Ask not what your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country.” The social justice warriors curse those who voice the dream “I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.”
Today’s reality undeniably presents the national disintegration from greatness to failure.
It is a choice
The national decay results from a choice of the citizen. Differing governing formats offer citizens differing methods of making their choices known. Some governing is totalitarian, but even then, the citizens will ultimately make choices regarding their nation.
The United States of America is a Constitutionally Represented Republic. It is not a democracy. This difference is treated under a separate article, but it is a significant factor that led the United States of America to become a great nation. In fact, it can be argued that this is the singular factor undergirding our nation’s greatness. Remove this element and you remove our nation.
The governing
The Constitution of the United States of America is a masterpiece of national governing. This document has protected our national integrity and has allowed a governing system to accomplish unparalleled feats on the worldwide stage. The Constitution has earned unique respect for its equity and foresighted precepts.
The Constitution of the United States has received accolades from many respected voices. Perhaps this comment by John Adams, to the Massachusetts Militia, 11 October 1798, is most appropriate: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Adams’ insight is remarkable. The United States Constitution is effective ONLY for “a moral and religious people.” He specifically notes that the Constitution is “wholly inadequate” to govern those who are not moral and religious. The conclusion is evident—those who are immoral and irreligious refuse the Constitution’s tenets! Admas further notes the consequence of the United States failing to respect the governing of the Constitution, “this Country will be the most miserable Habitation in the World.”
One would think that an undisputed respect and defense of the United States Constitution would be eagerly practiced by those elected to the governing levels of our nation. But evil is restless as it seeks destruction of mankind’s happiness. As Adams noted, evil seeks only to make man’s life an existence in “the most miserable habitation in the world.”
The Challenge
The United States Constitution has faced attacks from “activists” seeking to make the governing of our nation different from that envisioned by the Founding Fathers. In the most recent years the Democratic Party has targeted the literalist limitations of the United States Constitution so that little-by-little the personal rights that are endowed upon mankind are erased or even criminally prosecuted. The Republic that was to be equally represented, has devolved into an electoral who votes but whose votes do not count. Those “elected” arrogantly legislate saying “We know what the people need better than they know what they need.”
A personification of this attitude is found in Barack Obama’s attitude toward the United States Constitution. A 2001 interview with then Senator Obama recorded his views of the inadequacy of our Constitution. These views frame the “fundamental change” that the Democratic Party seeks to make in the United States Constitution.
The central tenet of the United States Constitution is that all were created by the God of the Bible. As the article cited states, “Consequently, God—not government—had endowed each of us with rights, first among which were life, liberty, and property, the combination of which allowed the pursuit—but no guarantee—of happiness…That understanding led them to create for the first time in history a government built out of and respecting these universal rights of man, a government that was ‘of, by, and for’ the people, not the other way around. And it also led them to craft our Bill of Rights.”
However, Obama views the Constitution as merely “a charter of negative liberties. It says what the states can’t do to you. Says what the federal government can’t do to you but doesn’t say what the federal government or state government must do on your behalf.”
Another article is, Top 10 Ways Obama Violated the Constitution during His Presidency. This article validates how the Obama administration, and its bureaucrats, have been the most lawless executive administration in the history of the United States of America. This rejection of governing by the United States Constitution was allowed because Obama (and his administration, the politicians, and the judicial decisions) thought they were professionally above the law! They then ignored the legal limits of the separation of powers and disrespected constitutional bounds that are to control the tyranny of governmental overreach.
The difference in the views of the United States Constitution is simple—one view maintains the citizens know what is best for them while the other view maintains only the Politicians know what is best for the citizens.
The Critical Moment
Our nation’s existence has faced many attacks. Today the existence of our nation is threatened from the evil within the governing structure. This is the evil that curses the Constitution as archaic and outdated. This is the evil that attacks personal liberties. This is the evil that corrupts the basis for free elections. This is the evil that compromises the elected officials.
Our nation stands perilously close to erasure. Our glorious past is voided by its decadent present and its future is destined to be confined to the dustbins of “has been nations.”
In history past a world power completed the cycle of national existence. The alarming announcement was made, “You have been weighed in the scales and founding deficient.” The ominous words failed to spark any response and “that same night” the World Power was felled (The Bible, Daniel 5:23-31).
Let us not ignore history’s lesson. In order for citizens to salvage our Represented Republic we must expect and demand compliance with the United States Constitution. This coming election will determine our nation’s existence. The worthless Elite will make speeches and boast in promises, but after November 5, they will return and continue as they have ever since their freshman year.

In a bold defiance of mainstream medical tyranny, the American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds) has delivered a blistering condemnation of America’s leading medical institutions.
This coalition of healthcare professionals launched the “Doctors Protecting Children Declaration” on Thursday at the National Press Club in Washington, DC.
This declaration, which is spearheaded by Dr. Jill Simons, Executive Director of the American College of Pediatricians, is an urgent plea to halt the radical gender transition protocols being imposed on vulnerable children.
The coalition, which includes a diverse group of physicians, nurses, behavioral health clinicians, and scientists, has raised the alarm about the severe physical and mental health risks associated with so-called “gender-affirming” care.
“We have serious concerns about the physical and mental health effects of the current protocols promoted for the care of children and adolescents in the United States who express discomfort with their biological sex,” said Dr. Simons during the press conference.
“This declaration was authored by the American College of Pediatricians, but really it was developed from the expertise of hundreds of doctors, researchers, and other health care workers and leaders who, for years, have been sounding the alarm on the harmful protocols that continue to be promoted by the medical organizations in the United States. Despite recent revelations from the leaked WPATH Files and the recent release of the final report from the Cass Review, these medical organizations have not changed course.”
Dr. Simons specifically named each of the major medical associations, criticizing them for promoting the gender transition agenda among vulnerable children.
“We are calling on these medical organizations of the United States, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Endocrine Society, the Pediatric Endocrine Society, the American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association, and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, to follow the science and their European colleagues and immediately stop the promotion of social affirmation, puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries for children and adolescents who experience distress over their biological sex. In our declaration, we affirm that sex is a dimorphic innate trait defined in relation to an organism’s biological role in reproduction: male and female.”
The American College of Pediatricians just put out a statement calling out all the major medical associations by name for pushing the gender transition craze on kids.

These professionals argue that practices like social affirmation, puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries are neither safe nor effective in the long term.
Dr. Andre Van Mol, a board-certified family physician, criticized the ideology driving these treatments. He emphasized that gender dysphoria often resolves naturally by adulthood if not affirmed and linked it to underlying issues like mental health disorders and autism. Van Maul pointed out that the current protocols are dangerously experimental and ignore the well-being of the child.
Dr. Erika LeBaron, President-Elect of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, spoke passionately about the ethical violations of current protocols, which contravene the principle of “do no harm.” She called for a return to medical practices that prioritize patient health over political ideology.
Dr. Karl Benzio, a board-certified psychiatrist, pointed to the growing number of countries that are rejecting gender-affirming treatments in favor of psychiatric evaluation and mental health care. He stressed that gender confusion is a psychological issue, not a biological one, and that it should be treated accordingly. He warned that the chemical and surgical interventions currently being promoted are causing irreversible damage to children’s bodies and minds.
Dr. David Olson, a private practice pediatrician and a board member of the American College of Pediatricians, voiced strong support for a pivotal declaration challenging current medical practices regarding gender transition protocols in children. Dr. Olson called on medical professionals across all specialties to carefully review the declaration and its underlying references.
“I urge all of my colleagues, regardless of your medical specialty, everywhere, to read the Declaration, read the references, and then make a careful decision and sign on. The time to act is now,” Dr. Olson said.
The “Doctors Protecting Children Declaration” marks a critical juncture in the fight against the radical gender ideology being pushed by major medical organizations.
This declaration has already been co-signed by medical and health organizations across the U.S., including the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine (AHM), American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC), American College of Family Medicine (ACFM), Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS), Catholic Health Care Leadership Alliance (CHCLA), Catholic Medical Association (CMA), Child & Parental Rights Campaign (CPRC), Christian Medical & Dental Associations (CMDA), Coalition of Jewish Values, Colorado Principled Physicians, Genspect, Honey Lake Clinic, National Association of Catholic Nurses, National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC), and North Carolina Physicians For Freedom (NCPFF). Prominent pediatricians, other doctors, and health professionals from across the U.S. have also signed it.
The ACPeds and its coalition of healthcare professionals are calling on their colleagues and the public to read and support the declaration, available at doctorsprotectingchildren.org.

Restaurants across the state of California have cut at least 10,000 jobs since Democrat lawmakers mandated a $20 minimum wage, according to a major trade group.
According to the California Business and Industrial Alliance (CABIA), thousands of restaurant workers have lost their positions as businesses are forced to cut labor costs and raise their prices in order to survive.
The New York Post reports:
The California Business and Industrial Alliance (CABIA) slammed Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom for pushing through the law, which went into effect April 1 – and was blamed for forcing one beloved taco chain to shutter 48 locations in the state last week.
“California businesses have been under total attack and total assault for years,” CABIA president and founder Tom Manzo told Fox Business. “It’s just another law that puts businesses in further jeopardy.”
Several major chains – including McDonald’s, Burger King, and even low-cost favorite In-N-Out Burger – jacked up prices to offset the higher wages. Many had to cut employee hours and some have expedited a move to automation.
Manzo said nearly 10,000 jobs have been cut across fast food restaurants since Newsom signed California Assembly Bill 1287 into law last year, adding that officials were living in a “fantasyland” by thinking that drastic wage increases will help workers or businesses.
Just this week, the beloved restaurant chain Rubio’s Coastal Grill, announced that it would be closing 48 locations statewide due to the unaffordable costs of doing business.
“The closings were brought about by the rising cost of doing business in California,” said a statement from a Rubio’s spokesperson. “While painful, the store closures are a necessary step in our strategic long-term plan to position Rubio’s for success for years to come.”
Meanwhile, many other stores such as Taco Bell and Denny’s have been forced to close their doors or become drive-thru facilities because of soaring levels of crime.
In April, an analysis from Kalinowski Equity Research found that fast-food restaurants across the Golden State have hiked prices by around eight percent since the minimum wage law took effect.
And as long as Californians keep voting for far-left Democrats to look after their interests, things are only likely only get worse.

Since the announcement of the sham verdict in New York, Trump’s fundraising has been on fire and his campaign has raked in hundreds of millions of dollars.
Democrats and the talking heads at MSNBC have noticed and they are clearly concerned.
The far left network recently did a report on a Trump event in Silicon Valley and noted that it’s traditionally a liberal stronghold.
RedState reports:
RedState has written about former President Donald Trump’s sudden fundraising success, which has taken off following his conviction in the Manhattan trial. On Thursday, an MSNBC panel speculated about it, talking in part about it happening in Silicon Valley.
The panel pointed out the early post-verdict fundraising numbers, including a major donation almost immediately on the heels of the conviction. But what’s really great about the MSNBC speculation is the claim that President Biden was “too quiet for too long.” That’s rich, when one considers the recent history of President Biden saying, well, anything.
As the panel revealed, the former president had a roster of fundraisers and rallies on the West Coast; aside from the Silicon Valley fundraiser, Trump will be holding events in Beverly Hills and Newport Beach.
When asked about Trump’s support in the area, the correspondent on the ground, Dierdre Bosa, the anchor of CNBC’s “Tech Check” referred to Silicon Valley as a “liberal bastion” – she’s not wrong – and evinces some surprise at having seen someone wearing “full Republican gear.” It’s not clear what “full Republican gear” involves, so we shall have to take Ms. Bosa at her word.

Joe Biden’s America.
More than 1,300 illegal aliens flooded over the US border into San Diego, California in ONE DAY following Biden’s executive order on asylum seekers.
Joe Biden on Tuesday held a fake border security press conference on his new asylum ‘restrictions’ from the East Room.
More than 15 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age males – have invaded the US on Biden’s watch.
Joe Biden took 94 executive actions in his first 100 days in office to destroy the border.
Now he’s acting like the savior with his new ‘asylum restrictions’ – only asylum is STILL AVAILABLE to thousands of illegal aliens every single day released into the US.
According to The New York Post, Biden’s new border ‘crackdown’ will still allow at least 1.8 million illegals to enter the US every year.
Via Fox News reporter Bill Melugin: “Per CBP source, just under 1,300 illegal immigrants were apprehended by Border Patrol here in San Diego sector alone yesterday. We shot this video late yesterday afternoon, when one single BP agent was trying to corral a group of 140.”
Bill Melugin said the illegals are from Egypt, China, Colombia and Turkey.

Dr. Jill Biden, Ed.D., has been commuting on military planes between D.C., France and Delaware this week, fulfilling her obligations as First Lady for a White House picnic, the 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion and her stepson Hunter’s federal trial in Wilmington, Delaware on gun related charges.
Jill’s travel miles started racking up earlier this week when she flew with husband Joe Biden from their Rehoboth Beach, Delaware vacation home Sunday night to their home in Wilmington where Jill attended the first day of the trial on Monday (her 73rd birthday) while Joe stayed home before he took a solo trip for a Monday night Greenwich, Connecticut fundraiser. Joe flew back to the White House afterward.
On Tuesday, Jill attended the second day of the trial before jetting off to D.C. to join Joe in hosting the Congressional picnic at the White House Tuesday evening.

Jill then flew back to Wilmington Tuesday night to attend the third day of Hunter’s trial on Wednesday while Joe flew to France for the 80th anniversary of D-Day and a state visit with President Emmanuel Macron.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre stiff-armed a reporter who asked about Jill Biden’s travel plans during a Tuesday night press gaggle on Air Force One while Joe was headed to France:
Q Do you know what — the President dropped the First Lady off at her own plane on the way to Air Force One. Is she — she going back to Wilmington to attend the trial for day three?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: I would have to refer to the First Lady’s Office on her — on her travel. I just don’t — or — or her — yeah, her travel. I just don’t have anything for you at this time. So —
After attending Hunter’s trial on Wednesday, Jill jetted off to France to join Joe for Thursday’s D-Day observance in Normandy where she valiantly guided Joe and did what she could to protect the nation from total embarrassment and humiliation by her 81-year-old decompensating husband.

Then it was back on a USAF C-32 so Jill could attend Hunter’s trial on Friday. Afterward, Jill was scheduled to take a military jet right back to France to attend a state dinner with Joe in Paris on Saturday. Late on Sunday, Jill and Joe are scheduled to fly back to Wilmington, where Hunter’s trial resumes on Monday.
Reuters White House reporter Jeff Mason posted to X: “.@POTUS and @FLOTUS parted at the airport in Paris after spending the day together in Normandy for the D-Day anniversary.

A New York Times report on Jill’s jet setting did not mention who is paying for her trial related travel (excerpt):
Jill Biden, the first lady, left President Biden’s side in France on Thursday to make the trans-Atlantic trip back to Delaware, where Hunter Biden is standing trial on gun charges.
The first lady is then scheduled to return to France for a state visit on Saturday, according to her communications director, Elizabeth Alexander.
The departure of the first lady from a high-profile foreign trip was perhaps the most dramatic illustration yet of the Biden family’s personal priorities, which lie some 3,600 miles away from France, in Courtroom 4A of the J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building in Wilmington, Del.
Hunter Biden is on trial on charges of lying about his drug use on a form to buy a gun in October 2018, and of illegally possessing the weapon.
The boomerang trip also says something about the resolve of the first lady, who is not a blood relative of Hunter Biden but who is the woman who raised him since he was a small child. Over time, she has become her family’s protective backbone.
“I’m his mom,” she said in an interview in 2022, when Hunter Biden was the subject of a federal investigation. “I mean, I have to support him and love him, and, you know, I’m constantly talking to him, sending him texts; ‘How you doing?’ Because it’s tough.”
A plane ride across the Atlantic Ocean shows just how tough.
On Friday, Fox News raised the question of who will be paying for Jill’s frequent flights for the trial:

British comedian and actor Russell Brand has been very red-pilled in recent years.
During an episode of his podcast this week, he said that if you truly care about democracy and freedom, he doesn’t know how you could do anything other than voting for Donald Trump in November.
He pointed out that the Democrats are basically the opposite of what they claim.
Breitbart News has details:
Russell Brand: Americans Concerned About Freedom and Democracy Should Vote for Trump
British actor Russell Brand said Americans who are concerned about freedom and democracy should vote for former President Donald Trump in November.
“In a straight choice between Donald Trump and Joe Biden, if you care about democracy, if you care about freedom, I don’t know how you could do anything other than vote for Donald Trump for precisely the reasons that they claim that you can’t,” he said in the latest episode of his podcast, an advanced excerpt of which was obtained by Fox News.
Russell Brand was interviewing RNC spokeswoman Elizabeth Pipko when the conversation turned to Trump and the election.
“They act as if a vote for Donald Trump is almost like you’re directly voting for Armageddon, like you see hysterical performances outside of courtrooms, endless MSNBC bombast,” Brand said.
“But I’m starting to think that no, a greater threat to democracy is this kind of technological feudalism, that tells you that it cares about you and that it’s protecting vulnerable people, all the while increasing censorship, increasing the funding of wars, increasing the division between ordinary Americans.”

George Stephanopoulos, the former Bill Clinton staffer who is now the political director of ABC News for some reason, said recently that it is journalistic malpractice for a reporter to do a live TV interview with Trump.
You can tell that Stephanopoulos is greatly worried that Trump will win because he has increased the number and severity of his attacks on Trump in recent months.
He has even lectured his audience about the importance of the election.
FOX News reports:
ABC’s Stephanopoulos claims airing Trump interviews live is ‘journalistic malpractice’
During a recent interview, ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos claimed it is irresponsible for media outlets to air live television interviews with former President Trump.
The anchor and former President Clinton adviser spoke to Mediaite editor-in-chief Aidan McLaughlin for the inaugural episode of the outlet’s “Press Club” podcast airing on Saturday. The two journalists spoke about covering the presidential election this year and how the media need to approach reporting on the former president.
“I mean, I think it’s journalistic malpractice to do a live interview with President Trump on television,” Stephanopoulos told McLaughlin during the remote interview.
The Mediaite host brought up the topic, stating how Trump is difficult to handle because “I have long felt that Trump’s superpower is a lack of shame.”
“Huge,” the ABC man chimed in.
McLaughlin continued, “And you see it when, you know, when he’ll be up on a town hall stage or a debate stage, or in an interview with a reporter, and he’ll say ‘Two plus two equals five,’ and he’ll get fact-checked and we’ll just keep barreling through. Or, when there’s a controversy and he doesn’t apologize for it when any other politician in the history of politics would.”

I remember fondly the time when we didn’t have credible everyday talk about nuclear strikes clogging the relentless news cycle.
A simpler time, when talk of nuclear confrontation seemed a long-lost relic from the faraway cold war years.
All that is gone, and every single day, it seems, we have to carefully study statements by power players rushing the Armageddon clock to the midnight strike.
Today (7), once again Russian President Vladimir Putin delved into the theme, saying that there is no need to use nuclear weapons to deliver victory for Moscow in Ukraine.
This was hailed in the MSM as ‘the strongest signal yet from the Kremlin chief that there will not be a nuclear strike’.
Reuters reported:
“Putin, whose forces have been making advances in eastern Ukraine in recent months, said he did not see the conditions for the use of such weapons and requested that people stop discussing the nuclear topic.”
Watch: “Russia will only consider the use of nuclear weapons in exceptional cases, which have not yet occurred.”

But the leader of the world’s biggest nuclear power did not rule out changes to Russia’s nuclear doctrine.
Russia could also test nuclear weapons, although he saw no need to do so right now.
“Putin’s response came to a question from Sergei Karaganov, an influential Russian analyst, who asked if Putin should hold a ‘nuclear pistol to the temple’ of the West over Ukraine.
‘The use is possible in an exceptional case – in the event of a threat to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country. I don’t think that such a case has come. There is no such need’, Putin said at the St Petersburg International Economic Forum.
‘But this doctrine is a living tool and we are carefully watching what is happening in the world around us and do not exclude making some changes to this doctrine. This is also related to the testing of nuclear weapons’.”
Watch: ‘We see what the Russian character is, and we rely on it, and we don’t need any nuclear weapons’.

Russia’s published 2020 nuclear doctrine considers using a nuclear weapon as a response to an attack using nuclear or other weapons of mass destruction.
Another option is when a conventional weapons attack against Russia puts ‘the very existence of the state under threat’.
“If necessary, we will conduct tests. So far, there is no need for this either, since our information and computer capabilities allow us to produce everything in its current form.”

Cash often distributed through outside aide organizations
A federal watchdog report reveals that after America had been at war with the Taliban for two decades, the Joe Biden administration now has delivered at least $11 million in U.S. taxpayer funds to the terrorists. Probably much more.
A Center Square report posted at Just the News explains much of the cash has been delivered through various aide groups that get federal tax dollars.
And, the report warns, “experts” suggest the actual total Biden has delivered to the Taliban could be much higher.
The Taliban, previously in control in Afghanistan, took control again within days of Biden’s abrupt decision to yank American troops out, a scheme that cost American lives and left behind tens of billions of dollars in American war machinery for the Taliban to use or sell.
Further, Biden left behind hundreds of Americans and thousands of Afghanis who had worked with the American presence there for years – all in danger of death at the hands of the Taliban.
The report cited the conclusion of SIGAR, a federal watchdog, which found, “The U.S. government has continued to be the largest international donor supporting the Afghan people since the former Afghan government collapsed and the Taliban returned to power in August 2021.”
The report continued, “Since then, the U.S. government has provided more than $2.8 billion in humanitarian and development assistance to help the people of Afghanistan.”
The report also found “the $10.9 million paid by 38 U.S. Department of State, U.S. Agency for International Development, and U.S. Agency for Global Media implementing partners is likely only a fraction of the total amount of U.S. assistance funds provided to the Taliban in taxes, fees, duties, and utilities because UN agencies receiving U.S. funds did not collect data or provide relevant information about their subawardees’ payments.”
SIGAR, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, explained, “To carry out their programs, U.S. agencies rely heavily on nongovernmental organizations and public international organizations, such as the UN, to implement humanitarian and development assistance. Both the former Ghani administration and the current Taliban-controlled government benefited from U.S. aid by imposing taxes, fees, duties and utilities on implementing partners as a condition of operating in Afghanistan.”
The report noted that an independent government watchdog, Judicial Watch, previously documented how the Taliban created fake nongovernmental organizations to “siphon away” tax dollars.
That group reported, “Since the terrorist group returned to power in August 2021, Uncle Sam has continued to fund Afghanistan’s education sector through six programs that cost $185.2 million even though the Taliban has issued decrees drastically limiting access to education for girls and women as well as restricting women’s ability to work and other basic freedoms.”
“SIGAR has reported on the importance of U.S. funds being spent on U.S. priorities and not in ways that benefit the Taliban, which represses women and girls, denies the human rights of the Afghan people and remains unrecognized as a legitimate government by the U.S. government and the international community,” the watchdog said.

Infowars founder Alex Jones agreed to liquidate his assets to pay the Sandy Hook families for something he said over a decade ago.
Alex Jones will reportedly sell Infowars and liquidate most of his assets to make a dent in the $1.5 billion settlement he was ordered to pay Sandy Hook families.
“Liquidation could mean that Austin, Texas-based Jones would have to sell most of his assets, including his company, but could keep his home and other belongings that are exempt from bankruptcy liquidation. Proceeds would go to his creditors, including the Sandy Hook families.” – CBS News reported.
Alex Jones provided a bankruptcy update on Friday evening:

In December 2022 Alex Jones filed for personal bankruptcy protection in a Texas court after the Sandy Hook verdict.
A Connecticut judge previously ordered Alex Jones to pay an additional $473 million to Sandy Hook families, Reuters reported.
This is in addition to the $1 billion Alex Jones was ordered to pay for questioning the Sandy Hook shooting and calling it a false flag.
Sandy Hook families previously sought $2.75 trillion in damages – in addition to the $1 billion.
Alex Jones called the defamation suit an attack on his First Amendment rights.
Jones also said he apologized to the Sandy Hook families, but it wasn’t enough.
“I admitted I was wrong. I admitted it was a mistake. I admitted that I followed disinformation but not on purpose. I apologized to the families. And the jury understood that. What I did to those families was wrong. But I didn’t do it on purpose,” Alex Jones said in December 2022.
Attorney Mike Cernovich calls this the most rigged case he has ever read about in his life.

The far-left censors at Google have censored the PragerU app from the Play Store over claims that it promotes “hate speech.”
Posting on the X platform, PragerU shared a screenshot of a message sent to them from Google’s censorship team warning that its content was “asserting that a protected group is inhuman, inferior or worthy of being hated.”
“We don’t allow apps that promote violence, or incite hatred against individuals or groups based on race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, age, nationality, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, or any other characteristic that is associated with systemic discrimination or marginalization,” the message read.

According to PragerU’s website, the video in question is entitled Dear Infidels: A Warning to America and exposes the threat posed by radical Islam.
Radical Islam poses a significant threat to our freedom. The rise of anti-American rhetoric and violence in cities and universities is a direct result of the indoctrination led by those perpetrating a religious war against the West. PragerU’s short documentary features first-hand accounts from those who escaped Islamic rule and have come to warn America.
PragerU has responded by accusing Google of emulating the communist Soviet Union.
“Google is using Soviet-style tactics and attempting to silence us. According to Google, sharing the stories of a former Palestinian refugee, an Arab Muslim born in Israel, and brave U.S. Navy SEALs who witnessed the horrors of Muslim extremism constitutes ‘hate speech,'” the organization said in a statement. “This is a blatant attempt to silence truth and censor speech. We urgently need your help to fight back against this suppression.”
Founded in 2009 by Dennis Prager, PragerU produces short, educational videos on topics like economics, history, politics, and culture. It is specifically aimed at younger audiences, with its videos featuring conservative thinkers making the arguments for conservativism free speech, countering progressive narratives. Its videos have garnered billions of views across various platforms, despite constant efforts by Big Tech companies to censor and stifle their growth.

A Texas man has been hospitalized with anthrax after eating contaminated lamb meat.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reported a rancher in Texas was hospitalized with Anthrax after eating a lamb that was infected with the bacteria.
After eating the infected lamb, the rancher started having a fever, leukocytosis, a black wound on his hand, blisters, and extreme edema.
The rancher was taken to a hospital where doctors ran tests and confirmed the man was infected with Bacillus anthracis, the bacteria that causes anthrax.
Anthrax is caused by Bacillus anthracis, a spore-forming bacterium that can live in the ground for decades.
Natural outbreaks of anthrax among livestock don’t pose a severe risk to humans unless they eat or handle infected animals.
The weaponized version of anthrax that was used in the 2001 Anthrax attacks, however, is highly deadly.

Per The Daily Mail:
A man in Texas has been hospitalized with anthrax in an ‘unusual case’ after butchering a dead lamb and cooking its meat.
The individual, in his 50s, said the animal had been healthy on his ranch but died suddenly, prompting him to prepare the meat and eat it with two other people.
A week later, however, he was admitted to the hospital suffering from blistering, swelling, and rotting black skin on his right arm.
Tests confirmed he was infected with anthrax, a rare bacterial infection that kills up to one in two people it infects.
In recent years, several states have been conducting simulations of a weaponized anthrax attack.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported public safety, health, and emergency management agencies across the state of Ohio came together last year to conduct a three-day anthrax attack simulation.

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs violated the law by circumventing the Arizona Senate’s Committee on Director Nominations to vet state agency directors, a judge has ruled.
“The Governor has improperly, unilateraly appointed de facto directors for these 13 agencies, despite the actual job tile she has assigned 10 each of them,” reads Judge Scott Blaney’s June 5 ruling.
As reported by The Gateway Pundit, Hobbs is also facing an investigation, stemming from significant donations made to a dark money group, which were used for Hobbs’ inaugural events, potentially influencing state contract decisions.
Hobbs’ ethical conduct was called into question by GOP State Legislators after she solicited donations of up to $250,000 using a 501(c)(4) nonprofit group for inaugural events and received $400,000 from a company, which later made millions in return.
Democrat Attorney General Kris Mayes, who, like Hobbs, stole the 2022 election by 280 votes from Trump-endorsed Abe Hamadeh, will launch a criminal investigation into Governor Katie Hobbs over a pay-to-play scheme.
Arizona Family reports,
A Maricopa County Superior Court judge says Gov. Katie Hobbs violated Arizona law when she appointed “de facto directors” to lead state agencies without Senate consent. However, the court will not be issuing an injunction at this time.
At issue is the governor’s battle with the Republican-controlled legislature over her nominees to run various state departments.
In February 2023, one month after Gov. Hobbs was sworn in, the state Senate broke tradition by creating a new committee to vet and confirm her nominees. A number of Democrats criticized the move, calling the Senate Committee on Director Nominations (DINO) a blatant attempt to stall or completely block the nominations.
In the days and months that followed, the governor submitted 22 nominations for director positions. According to court documents, only 11 nominees received a hearing before the new panel.
The Judge ordered that Hobbs' appointments were made "in violation of Arizona law" and that a seperate evidentary hearing or oral arguments will occur in July or early August for the parties to "meet and confer in an attempt to reach a mutually agreeable resolution of this dispute."
Read the full ruling here:
Per the report, Katie Hobbs delivered the following statement in response to the ruling:
“Arizonans want sanity, not the chaos of indicted fake elector Jake Hoffman’s sham committee that he abuses to force his radical political agenda on Arizonans. Governor Hobbs stands ready to work with anybody in the Senate who is serious about putting the political games aside and delivering for everyday Arizonans, and as she’s said from day one, she remains open to a fair and timely process for confirmation of nominees.
“We believe the ruling is wrong on the law and will be appealing it. While the case remains pending, we will continue to ensure state agencies can perform their vital functions and serve Arizonans.”
Arizona Senate Republicans and Senate President Warren Petersen responded to the ruling highlighting the "disturbing trend of our Governor breaking our laws" and slamming the Democrats for "weaponizing Arizona's government for their own political gain and to implement their radical left agenda."
According to Petersen, the decisions made by Hobbs' "fake directors" could possibly lead to a "myriad of lawsuits."

Arizona Senate Republicans issued the following press release on Wednesday:
Court Rules Katie Hobbs Violated State Law by Failing to Nominate Directors for Senate Confirmation
PHOENIX, ARIZONA— After months of throwing Arizona's critical state agencies into chaos and subjecting these entities to a host of potential legal challenges, while also creating confusion for the citizens of Arizona, a Maricopa County Superior Court judge ruled today Katie Hobbs' scheme to circumvent the Senate confirmation process for director nominations is unlawful and must be immediately reversed.
Consistent with the United States Constitution and the laws of states across this nation, Arizona law requires its agencies to be led by Senate-confirmed directors, under A.R.S. § 38-211. This requirement exists to preserve the liberties of Arizona's citizens. Just as the Governor's veto serves as a check on legislative power, Senate confirmation of agency directors serves as a necessary check on the Governor's power.
In September of 2023, after a Senate committee recommended a nominee accused of plagiarism not be confirmed, Hobbs sent a letter to Senate President Warren Petersen notifying him that she was going to evade the senate-confirmation process for agency directors, mandated by A.R.S. § 38-211. Under her ill-advised plan, blessed by Attorney General Mayes, Hobbs withdrew 13 director nominations still pending before the Senate. She then re-installed these same individuals with a fake title of "Executive Deputy Directors." Based on flimsy legal reasoning, which Hobbs' own attorney later described as "strange," Hobbs claimed these fake directors had the same power and authority as Senate-confirmed directors. After months of discussions, she continued to insist she was above the law. As a result, President Petersen sued Hobbs.
Today, the Honorable Scott Blaney confirmed Governor Hobbs violated state law with her illegal scheme. Under Judge Blaney's order, Hobbs must submit nominees to fill the supposed "vacancies" created by her now-debunked strategy. The court rightly recognized that “the Governor willfully circumvented th[e] statutory process and eliminated the Legislative branch from its oversight role.”
"We're witnessing a very disturbing trend of our Governor breaking our laws," said Senate President Warren Petersen. "Contrary to what she may believe, she is not above the law, and the Legislature is fulfilling its role in serving as the constitutional check and balance against her abuse of power. This case is a prime example of Democrats weaponizing Arizona's government for their own political gain and to implement their radical left agenda. Unfortunately, every decision made by these fake directors on behalf of our state agencies will be under a microscope, opening the door for a myriad of lawsuits. I'm disappointed with our attorney general once again supporting another unlawful order by the Governor, but I'm very pleased with the court's rightful interpretation of our statutes. I look forward to the Governor's cooperation so that we may reinstate sanity after this chaotic period she created for the entire state of Arizona."

A Minnesota jury found 5 of the 7 Somali defendants guilty of stealing millions of dollars in Covid funds intended to feed children.
70 members of the Somali community in Minnesota stole about $250 million in Covid funds. The seven defendants on trial related to the scheme were accused of stealing more than $40 million in taxpayer money.
Millions of dollars went overseas to Somalia. 80% of the stolen Covid money was never recovered.
“The verdict confirms what we’ve known all along, which is that defendants falsified documents, they lied and they fraudulently claimed to be feeding millions of meals to children in Minnesota during COVID,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Thompson said. “The defendants took advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic to defraud the state of Minnesota and to steal tens of millions of dollars.”
The guilty verdict comes after a juror was offered a bag of cash to vote to acquit. A Somali woman showed up at one of the juror’s homes with $120,000 in cash. The juror was ultimately dismissed. The FBI is still investigating the bribe.
NBC News reported:
A Minnesota jury on Friday found five of seven defendants guilty of most of the crimes they faced related to a scheme in which they misused millions of dollars meant to feed children during the pandemic.
The federal fraud trial was the first in a $250 million Covid relief scheme that prosecutors say is the largest of its kind.
The verdict comes days after one juror said she had been offered nearly $120,000 in cash in exchange for voting to acquit. The juror was dismissed after reporting the alleged bribe attempt to the court and police.
A second juror was released Tuesday after a family member brought up the alleged bribe in a conversation.
After deliberating for more than three days, the sequestered jury found five of the defendants — Abdiaziz Shafii Farah, Mohamed Jama Ismail, Abdimajid Mohamed Nur, Mukhtar Mohamed Shariff and Hayat Nur — guilty of most of the crimes they were accused of, according to NBC affiliate KARE reporter Lou Raguse.
Two other defendants — Said Shafii Farah and Abdiwahab Maalim Aftin — were acquitted of all the crimes they faced, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering.
During Covid, the federal government doled out money to provide free meals to children. It was Covid, so the government decided to abandon any pretense of preventing fraud — and plenty of people noticed immediately.

The European Elections are on: voters from across the continent will chose their MEPs to represent them in the EU legislative body in Strasbourg and Brussels.
The elections started with the Dutch voters kick-starting the four days of voting across the Union
Exit polls in the Netherlands suggest a tight race between a left-green alliance and the conservative party of populist Geert Wilders.
BBC reported:
“Right-wing and far-right parties are widely expected to make big gains in many of the EU’s 27 member states, and that appears to have been borne out in the Netherlands, to an extent.
Although the Green-Labour alliance is set to take more seats in the European Parliament according to the exit poll, Mr Wilders’ Freedom Party is on course for big gains. But he has not repeated the runaway victory of last November’s general election.”
So proud of the results in the last year. We won the national elections half a year ago. We’ll join the Dutch government soon. And the PVV had the best result and biggest gains ever in the EU elections! Thanks to millions of our voters for their support!
— Geert Wilders (@geertwilderspvv) June 7, 2024
Results will only be released when every country has finished voting on Sunday evening.
“The next European Parliament will have 720 seats, with each country having seats proportionate to their population. Germany will have 96, France 81 and Italy 76, while the Netherlands has 31.”
Ireland and the Czech Republic voted today (7), and the rest of the EU votes over the weekend.
“A shift to the right has been widely expected in this election, with far-right parties eyeing victory in France, Belgium, Austria and Italy.
Their opponents are likely to take some satisfaction from Thursday night’s exit poll, because of the Green/Labour alliance’s performance. Geert Wilders’ party came first in Dutch national elections last November, and has secured a cabinet deal with three other parties, even though he will not be prime minister.”
A shift to the right in the European Parliament would upset the cart of the Globalist policies of green alarmism, crippling regulation in agriculture, unchecked mass migration and the impetus for war against Russia.
Meanwhile, the campaign in Denmark isn’t going so well, with the Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen getting assaulted today (7) by a man in central Copenhagen.
Reuters reported:
“Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen was beaten on Friday evening at Kultorvet [square] in Copenhagen by a man who was subsequently arrested. The Prime Minister is shocked by the incident’, her office said in a statement without giving further detail.
Police said on social media platform X they had arrested a man and were investigating the incident but declined to give further detail.
‘She seemed a little stressed’, Soren Kjergaard, who works as a barista on the square, told Reuters after seeing the prime minister being escorted away by security following the assault.”
Outraged by the assault on the Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen @statsmin in Copenhagen tonight.
I strongly condemn this cowardly act of aggression.
All my thoughts are with you and your family, dear Mette and hope you overcome this horrendous attack soon.

This assault comes two days before Danes head to the polls. Just three weeks ago, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico was seriously injured by a shooter in an assassination attempt.

They are replacing everything in society that is beautiful with something that is just an insult to your intelligence.
The Gateway Pundit reported,
The despicable woke left continued its unrelenting war on American society by declaring two surprising individuals beauty pageant winners, one of whom is male.
As WKRG reported, 23-year-old Atmore resident Sara Milliken won Miss Alabama on her third try over Memorial Day weekend.
She claimed her goal was only to make the top 10 after failing to place in her previous two attempts.
“Just making it to top 10 was my goal, ya know, I could leave the weekend saying I was better than I was the year before, and it’s all about bettering yourself for me,” Milliken told WKRG.
But Milliken would have been laughed right out of the room in an actual beauty competition. WKRG-TV Digital Reporter Summer Poole posed for a picture with Milliken following her asinine victory in the pageant.
But woke warriors were not finished destroying feminine beauty. Despite an array of gorgeous and intelligent women to choose from in the Miss Maryland USA pageant on June 1, the judges of the contest instead awarded the crown to a biological male who goes by Bailey Anne Kennedy. The 31-year-old is a military husband, an NCAA D1 Dance Team Captain, and a former NFL Cheerleader Trainee from Montgomery County.
Was there some sort of an update that I didn’t get? Is this the new standard of female beauty? A man dressing up as an insulting caricature of what he thinks a woman is like and beating real women? Which one is more outrageous to you?

A school crossing guard in Pennsylvania was arrested for giving school children narcotics.
26-year-old Kiara Lee is accused of giving vapes and marijuana edibles to students at Penn Wood Middle School.
According to reports, Lee also allegedly smoked weed with the middle schoolers.
“School crossing guards epitomize the role of public servant. They are – quite literally – entrusted with the lives of our children and hold a position of sacred trust in communities across the Commonwealth and the country. For an individual to abuse that trust is deeply disturbing, and corrosive to the well-being of the entire community,” Delaware County District Attorney Stollsteimer said.

There once was a time when the southern European countries were the ones dealing with the heavy burden of the unchecked mass migration to the EU.
But now the dystopian consequences of the influx millions of poor migrants – from sometimes incompatible cultures – are felt all over the old continent.
This week central and eastern Europe also got their taste of catastrophe with two stabbings that claimed the lives of two police officers, in Germany and in Poland.
To begin with, we see how highly unpopular German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is all but ready to sing ‘Auslander Raus’ (Foreigners out).
The gruesome killing of a police officer by a 25-year-old Afghan failed asylum seeker (a.k.a. illegal migrant) put German Chancellor Olaf Scholz under considerable pressure as the European Elections unfold.
Scholz has to at least pretend to take a tougher stance on migration to minimize the expected far right gains.
Politico reported:
“In a speech to parliamentarians on Thursday, Scholz pledged to deport migrants from Afghanistan and Syria who have committed crimes despite the fact that those countries are ruled by repressive regimes.
‘It outrages me when someone who has found protection here commits the most serious crimes’, Scholz said. ‘Such criminals should be deported, even if they come from Syria or Afghanistan. Germany’s interest in security outweighs the offender’s interest in protection’.”
It’s not the first instance in which he has vowed to take a tougher stance on migration.
There’s already some legislation in place authorizing authorities to deport migrants whose asylum claims have been rejected.
“However, carrying out such deportations in practice, even for those convicted of serious crimes, remains difficult. Germany stopped deportations to Afghanistan in 2021 after the Taliban returned to power. Syria continues to be ruled by Bashar al-Assad, whose government has committed horrific atrocities against its own people.”
The widespread outrage by the the brutal stabbing of a police officer by the Afghan Islamic radical makes Scholz take a tougher stance on deportations.
But implementing these proposals is a different ballgame.
The new mantra is: ‘National security is more important than protecting the interests of extremists’.
Even Poland, a country with much more strict migration policies than Germany and border barriers, is not immune to it.
And apparently, the illegal migrants don’t even have to enter your territory to bring about death.
Deutsche Welle reported:
“A Polish soldier who was stabbed on the country’s border with Belarus in May has died from his injuries, Poland’s military announced on Thursday.
It said the soldier was allegedly stabbed in the chest by a migrant who reached through a fence erected on the border to prevent illegal crossings.”
The Polish Foreign Ministry demanded Minsk authorities hand over the soldier’s killer.
“Poland and the EU claim many of the migrants attempting to cross into the country are organized and aided by Russia and its ally Belarus as part of an attempt destabilize Europe.”
The perpetrator of the attack has not been identified.
Warsaw announced €2.3 billion ($2.5 billion) to strengthen its eastern border and a 200-meter (656-foot) buffer zone.
“In 2022, Poland erected a 5.5-meter-high fence and an electronic surveillance system. But according to the Polish Border Guard, there have already been more than 17,000 attempted crossings in the first five months of 2024.”

The View’s Sunny Hostin had her very own ‘You ain’t Black?’ Joe Biden moment on Friday’s show when she insulted conservative Black voters and mocked the idea that Black Republican voters even exist.
Her remarks came as the bitter, sullen ladies of The View discussed recent comments from Florida Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL), who said that Black families were “together” and voted more conservatively during the Jim Crowe era.
Donalds made the comments during an address to a group of Black conservatives.
Hostin then leveled her insults saying, “These Black men that he was speaking with, I’d love to see them. It would be like looking at unicorns.”
Hostin also accused Donalds, who is considered to be in the running for the number two spot on the Republican ticket, of “pandering to Donald Trump.”
“I thought it was interesting that the framing was a room of Black Republicans,” Hostin said.
She then held her hands to her eyes as she strained to scan the audience and said, “Where are they? Where are they? Because if you look at the stats, 77% – 81%, I’m sorry, of Black men are part of the Democratic Party.”
“Black voters consistently align with the Democratic Party,” Hostin added. “Over 95% of [Black] women are part of the Democratic Party.”
Recent polling suggests Hostin’s narrow and perhaps wishful views are unfounded.
The Gateway Pundit reported that David Hilliard, one of the founding members of the Black Panther Party, went live on TikTok recently to share his support for President Donald Trump.
A Rasmussen Reports poll from last week revealed initial results of a recent poll (yet to be published) showing President Trump leading Joe Biden among Black voters.
Pollster Frank Luntz recently warned CNN about the movement of minority voters to President Trump.
CNN data analyst Harry Enten seemed stunned by the news, “My goodness gracious,” he said as he reacted to the polling average, which showed Trump’s support among Black voters more than doubled to 22% compared to 2020.

Liberal pro-Hamas protestors and supporters worldwide are flooding social media with disinformation to public and diplomatic opinion against Israel, cutting off international aid and ensuring Hamas’s survival.
The conflict between Israel and Hamas has transcended the Gaza combat zone, evolving into an information war. Key battles are now fought in digital and media landscapes, where the victor shapes public perception, influences international opinion, and gains political leverage. Both Israel and Hamas have heavily invested in disseminating their narratives through social media, traditional media, and diplomatic communications.
Hamas leverages imagery and storytelling to portray itself as a defender of Palestinian rights and a victim of Israeli aggression. By highlighting civilian suffering in Gaza, Hamas seeks international sympathy and support. This approach often uses dramatic visuals, such as images of destroyed homes and wounded children, which quickly spread across social media. Hamas has been accused of using “crisis actors” who pretend to be injured and of circulating old videos of people injured months or years before the conflict began.
Social media have become powerful weapons, with platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram flooded with posts, videos, and hashtags from both sides. The speed and reach of social media allow for rapid dissemination of information but also facilitate the spread of misinformation and propaganda. Both Israel and Hamas have been accused of spreading false or misleading information to bolster their narratives. However, the accusations against Israel are themselves disinformation spread by pro-Palestinian and pro-Hamas actors. Hamas’s disinformation includes false claims that Israel killed Palestinian civilians to harvest their organs.
Major points of Hamas disinformation include accusations that Israel uses hunger as a strategy of war, deliberately targets civilians in Gaza as part of a “genocide,” and the ironic claim that Zionism is a White Supremacist ideology.
A myth circulating claims that Israel uses hunger as a strategy of war. In reality, Israel enforces blockades and restrictions to prevent weapons smuggling into Gaza. Humanitarian aid, food, and medical supplies are allowed into Gaza with international coordination to ensure civilian needs are met. From January to April this year, food imports to Gaza increased by 53%, meeting international standards for food security. Israel’s Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) facilitated nearly 15,000 trucks carrying over 227,000 tons of food, ensuring daily nutritional requirements were met.
Another myth is that Israel deliberately targets civilians in Gaza and is committing “genocide.” These claims originate from Hamas’ “Ministry of Health” and are therefore suspect. Despite being cited by the UN and other international organizations, these numbers are highly questionable. They have been repeatedly debunked as inconsistent, focusing on “women and children” without providing data on killed militants. According to the IDF, over 13,000 terrorists have been killed in Gaza, including 18 of 24 battalion structures.
Civilian casualties are a certainty in the fighting, but reliable data is lacking. Israel traditionally strives to avoid civilian casualties for both moral and strategic reasons. The IDF distributed pamphlets, sent SMS messages, and made phone calls advising civilians to leave targeted areas. Over 1.5 million Palestinian civilians successfully evacuated from areas of conflict. However, Hamas and Iran use these allegations to delegitimize Israel’s right to self-defense by manipulating the numbers.
It’s important to note that while Hamas led the October 7 attack, many civilians also participated in the atrocities, invading Israel and committing acts of murder, rape, torture, and looting. Numerous videos and substantial evidence confirm this. Additionally, opinion polls show that 70% of Palestinians support the October 7 massacre. This claim contradicts the IDF’s focus on Hamas-controlled urban warfare – if Israel intended to commit “genocide” against Palestinians, its military superiority would have allowed it to target large civilian concentrations in evacuation zones, but no such action occurred.
Finally, there is a myth that Zionism is a White Supremacist ideology, initially propagated by TRT and other Arab media outlets, later adopted by pro-Palestine and anti-Israel protestors in the West. Historically, Jews have not been considered white in Europe and the US. In Israel, Jews come from diverse backgrounds, having been dispersed globally. While many Jews have Ashkenazi backgrounds associated with European origins, the majority in Israel are actually Mizrahi and Sephardic, originating from Arabic and Islamic countries and often having darker skin tones.
The information war has significant implications for international opinion and diplomatic relations. Public sentiment can influence government policies, aid decisions, and diplomatic stances. Widespread sympathy for the Palestinian cause can increase pressure on Israel and lead to sanctions, complicating U.S. weapon provisions. The Israel-Hamas conflict, along with the Ukraine War, may be the first modern information war, highlighting the need for the U.S. defense and intelligence communities to counter disinformation. The West must also question how its young people fell under the spell of disinformation and are supporting Hamas, an organization that would kill Christians, Jews, non-Muslims, gays, and liberals while stripping rights from women.

Update: While the legitimacy of the letter issued by Judge Merchan has not been refuted, Facebook user “Michael Anderson” has posted the following:
Last week, President Trump was convicted in the New York case brought by DA Alvin Bragg, who ran for the office under the promise of “get Trump.” The President was convicted on 34 felony counts of “falsifying business records” in regards to alleged repayments of what the prosecution claimed were “hush money” payments made by his then-attorney and now-convicted perjurer Michael Cohen.
The jury deliberated for a little over nine hours before deciding on a still-unknown predicate crime assumed to be federal campaign violations. Judge Merchan bizarrely gave instructions to the jurors that they could all agree that a crime was committed, beyond the falsifying charges, but didn’t necessarily have to agree unanimously on which crime was committed.
While that crime was never defined, it nonetheless gave Bragg the authority to bring the 34 misdemeanor counts as felonies, thus negating the statute of limitations. Elevating these misdemeanors to felonies is in contradiction to Bragg typically downgrading felonies to misdemeanors in over half of the felony cases his office has tried, according to The Daily Mail.
President Trump was supposed to be sentenced on July 11th, however, a new development could call into question the entire case. The day before the conviction was handed down, a Facebook user by the name “Michael Anderson” commented that Trump was going to be convicted, sourcing that claim to his cousin, who he claimed was on the jury.
Judge Merchan issued a letter to all parties today stating:
Today, the Court became aware of a comment that was posted on the Unified Court System’s public Facebook page and which I now bring to your attention. In the comment, the user, “Michael Anderson,” states:
‘My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted. Thank you folks for all your hard work!!!!”
The comment, now labeled as one week old, responded to a routine UCS notice, posted on May 29, 2024, rcgarding oral arguments in the Fourth Department of the Appellate Division unrelated to this proceeding. The posting, entitled “The Appellate Division, Fourth Department, will hear oral arguments this morning at 10,” and the comment are both viewable at https://www. facebook.com/NewYorkCourts/.
Below is a copy of the letter:
Online users responded to this latest development:
Uh oh! It looks like there was juror misconduct in the #TrumpTrial!
We knew these jurors would not be able to avoid telling their friends and relatives that were going to get Trump

OP-ED by Nevada US Senate Candidate Dr. Jeff Gunter, MD:
As a former U.S. Ambassador for President Trump, I have witnessed more corruption than most people can imagine. President Trump was right when he said that the true threat to the Republican Party is the enemy from within.
During my tenure as ambassador, China was unleashing bioweapons, and I was criticized for fighting back. I was unanimously confirmed to my position and I have donated millions and volunteered countless hours to serve Republican leadership. I even contributed to Senate election chief Steve Daines, and he had no problem accepting my money.
For 17 years, I have sat on the board of the Republican Jewish Coalition. I have treated cancer patients, saving the lives of children, veterans, family, and friends. I know exactly what it’s like to fight outside enemies. But what this race has taught me is that the enemy fighting from within is more dangerous than any adversary.
I declared my candidacy in July of 2023, poised to start strong. Then, I received a call from my general consultant informing me that they received a threat from the NRSC, threatening to pull over $20 million of business from the group if they continued to support me. Consequently, they abandoned me. A similar call came from my friends at the RJC, who received similar threats. We lost vendors, donors, and belief in the system.
But we fought on and gained ground. The harder we fought, the more corruption we encountered. Republicans, heavily led by the NRSC RINO Swamp, spent more time and money fighting me than fighting Democrats. They insulted my patients and even suggested I needed professional help. They called me a crackpot and a weirdo.
I’ve always said that President Trump is the Deep State’s worst enemy. They know this, and so they work tirelessly to keep him down. And just like President Trump, I won’t be fazed by these efforts.
The level of corruption and betrayal I have seen from within the party is staggering. It’s not just about money or power; it’s about a complete disregard for the principles and values that we, as Republicans, are supposed to stand for. The NRSC and other party elites have shown that they are more interested in maintaining their control and influence than in supporting candidates who genuinely want to make a difference. They support a candidate who stole money from the people of Nevada to pay off his own debts through a “Scam” PAC. A ghost candidate who refuses to debate and is down 14 points in general election polls.
I have often wondered if this resistance is driven by antisemitism, as the NRSC hasn’t supported a Jewish candidate in decades, or if it’s simply because my record shows that I won’t be intimidated. They see my strength, my resilience, and my dedication to fighting for what is right, and they feel threatened. But Nevada, take note: I will never stop fighting.
When I become the next United States Senator from this great Silver State, the corruption ends on day one. I will work tirelessly to ensure that the voices of the people are heard and that the true values of our party are upheld.
The Republican Party is at a crossroads. It’s time to take a stand. It’s time to say enough is enough. We must hold our leaders accountable and demand that they put the interests of the people above their own. We must root out the corruption and ensure that our party is one that we can all be proud of.
I will continue to stand strong, to fight for what is right, and to represent the people of Nevada with honor and integrity. Together, we can bring about the change that we so desperately need. Together, we can restore the Republican Party to its true greatness. Thank you for your support, and God bless America.
Dr. Jeffrey Gunter, MD, is an American healthcare executive, philanthropist, diplomat, and former U.S. Ambassador serving as the 24th United States Ambassador to Iceland. He is currently a candidate for U.S. Senate in Nevada.

The fake news media is working overtime to help Joe Biden’s reelection bid.
The disastrous May jobs report was released on Friday: According to the BLS, nonfarm payrolls expanded by 272,000 – ‘better than expected’ and the unemployment rate rose to 4% (this number is also a lie).
But the fake news media is spinning the abysmal report to help Joe Biden.
“U.S. adds a much-better-than-expected 272,000 jobs in May, but unemployment rate edges up to 4%” – CNBC boasted on Friday.
Fake News CNN really hyped up the May jobs report.
“US economy added a whopping 272,000 jobs in May” CNN’s headline read.
“Key takeaways from the blowout May jobs report,” another CNN headline read.
Axios also carried the water for the Biden Regime with a hysterical headline.
“The boom in hiring shows the labor market is still strong, defying other indications that it’s cooling,” Axios absurdly claimed.

There is no boom in hiring.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics double counts people with multiple jobs which is why they say nonfarm payrolls, not workers.
Most of the jobs added were in healthcare, government, leisure and hospitality (seasonal).
Full-time workers: -625,000
Part-time workers: +286,000
Native-born workers: -663,000
Foreign-born workers (including illegal aliens): +414,000
Here’s the truth via Zero Hedge:
On the surface, it was a blockbuster jobs report, certainly one which nobody expected, with the two largest US banks – JPMorgan and JPM – both expecting a below-consensus print at 150K and 165K, respectively (well we did, and we said that the jobs print “will beat” shortly before it was published)
Goldman (165K) and JPM (150k) are below the median NPF estimate of 180k.
It will beat. pic.twitter.com/v2UxP2TBky

Starting at the top, the BLS reported that in May the US unexpectedly added a whopping 272K payrolls, not workers since the establishment survey double-counts multiple jobs even if held by the same employee, which was 50% higher than the consensus forecast of 180K and 14K more than the highest Wall Street estimate (258K from Regions Bank).
In fact, this was a 4-sigma beat to estimate, unheard of in the past year.

As The Gateway Pundit reported on Thursday, the Kansas City Chiefs halted all team activities after defensive lineman BJ Thompson suffered a seizure and soon after went into cardiac arrest during a special teams meeting.
In a statement on Thursday night, Thompson’s agent Chris Turnage said, “BJ is still unconscious at this point, but he’s stable, and his vitals are good.”
“His family asks for your continued prayers,” added Turnage.
Despite canceling all activities on Thursday, the Chiefs are expected to resume practice on Friday.

Per The New York Post:
Kansas City Chiefs defensive end BJ Thompson is “still unconscious” but “stable” following a terrifying medical episode Thursday when he suffered a seizure in a special teams meeting and went into cardiac arrest.
“BJ is still unconscious at this point, but he’s stable and vitals are good. His family asks for your continued prayers,” Thompson’s agent, Chris Turnage, said in a statement Thursday night to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
The Chiefs canceled team activities Thursday in the wake of Thompson’s scare, with medical personnel acting swiftly.
Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo spoke briefly on the matter later in the day when attending a charity softball game.
“Let me say this before I say anything, I’m thinking about BJ right now,” Spagnuolo said, according to Fox 4 KC.

Audrey Elizabeth Hale, the transgender psychopath and killer responsible for the tragic mass shooting at Covenant School in March 2023, reportedly used federal Pell Grant funds to purchase firearms and training.
The Tennessee Star reports that Hale purchased seven guns with the grant money, three of which were recovered from the scene of the crime.
Brian Wilson, an afternoon radio host at 99.7 WTN, revealed on Wednesday that Hale “took money from an education grant she received to purchase her weapons and to pay for training at a local gun range.”
The Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) recovered four additional guns from Hale’s parents’ home in the Belmont-Hillsboro neighborhood. However, MNPD declined to provide further information regarding the make and model of the guns or their cost, citing protection of materials included in the open investigative file.

The Tennessee Star reported:
Wilson’s report called the money Hale received an “education grant,” meaning Hale received a federal Pell grant as it is the only “grant” listed on [Nossi College of Art in Nashville] financial aid page.
The maximum amount one can receive from a Pell grant can change from year to year, but as of the 2024-2025 school year, students can receive a maximum of $7,395 for a school year, according to the Federal Student Aid office’s website. That amount is determined by how much a student’s parents are expected to contribute to the cost of college, the information a student puts on their FAFSA form, whether a student is attending school full time, and how long they plan to attend.
According to a transcript obtained by The Tennessee Star of an interview of Hale’s parents by police, Hale began to use her own income to fill out her FAFSA forms when she turned 25, according to her parents. This likely would have been 2020, considering Hale was born in 1995.
Hale’s parents suggest that she filled out at least one FAFSA form using her parents’ income. Assuming Hale completed a four-year degree and considering she graduated in 2022, she likely began taking classes at Nossi in 2018.
Students can continue to receive Pell grants yearly until they receive their degree or until their eligibility runs out. Pell grants can be applied to a student’s cost by the school or be given to a student directly.
Hale’s parents, Ronald and Norma Hale, have said that Audrey controlled the grant money she received in a savings account.
Earlier, The Gateway Pundit reported that new revelations have surfaced from the leaked manifesto of Audrey Elizabeth Hale, shedding light on the twisted thoughts and motivations of the psychopath responsible for the tragic March 27, 2023, massacre.

Against the background of the rapidly decaying Franco-Russian relations, and also after the greatly controversial approval by Georgia of the ‘Foreign Agents’ law, it arises that a French citizen, the researcher Laurent Vinatier, has been arrested in Russia under the equivalent law, what in the US would be the FARA legislation.
French researcher Laurent Vinatier has today (7) pleaded guilty in a Moscow court on Friday to a charge of ‘failing to register as a foreign agent’ while gathering information on the Russian military – which in the present situation of course has become a big deal.
Vinatier, is facing up to five years in prison.
He is in pre-trial custody until Aug. 5, despite a request to free him endorsed by the French embassy.
Reuters reported:
“‘I apologize for not registering as a foreign agent. The most upsetting thing is that throughout the 10 years of my work, I tried to defend Russia and its interests’, state news agency RIA quoted him as saying in court.
Vinatier is a Russia specialist and adviser to HD, a Swiss-based conflict mediation group whose full name is the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue.
A short video posted by the Moscow courts service showed the Frenchman being led in handcuffs into the courtroom and ushered into a barred metal cage at the start of the hearing.”
French President Emmanuel Macron denies Vinatier worked for the French state.
“Under Russian law, a person is obliged to contact the justice ministry and register as a foreign agent if they are involved in political activity or collecting military information while receiving financial or other help from abroad.”
France’s consul general in Moscow, Patrice Servantie, wrote to the court that the scholar would not abscond if released, to no avail.
“Russia’s Investigative Committee, which handles serious crimes, said Vinatier was suspected to have “purposefully collected information in the field of military and military-technical activities” which could be used against the security of the state.”
Vinatier’s specialty is Russia, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. He has worked as an adviser to HD for 10 years, based in Geneva.

Dr. Thomas Binder made headlines after he was forced into a psychiatric hospital after speaking out against the dangerous and unnecessary globalist COVID narrative. Dr. Binder MD studied medicine at the University of Zurich, received his doctorate in immunology and virology, specialized in internal medicine and cardiology, and has 35 years of clinical experience.
In February 2020, Thomas stood up for the return of real science, medicine and humanity. The result of his vocal opposition to the unscientific and irrational covid poilicies was to be arrested and referred for compulsory psyhiatric treatment.
Dr. Thomas Binder later told Dr. Drew last year that he was forcibly hospitalized – and required to take psychiatric medications – for speaking out against pandemic panic and the narrative surrounding COVID-19.
Recently, Dr. Binder called for the abolshment of the World Health Organization, after the botched and extremely dangerous actions and statements during the COVID pandemic.
Dr. Thomas Binder: Dear fellow humans, my name is Thomas Binder. I study medicine in Zurich, obtained a doctorate in Immunology and Virology, specialized in internal medicine and cardiology, and have 35 years of experience in diagnosis and therapy of acute respiratory infections in hospitals, in intensive care units, and in my private practice.
While there has never been a pandemic of a killer virus, there was a pandemic of cowards. And do we, doctors, see a pandemic of severe illnesses and of sudden unexpected deaths from heart attack, myocarditis, aortic dissection, stroke and pulmonary embolism, thrombosis and inflammation of other organs, especially with brain and spinal cord, disseminated intravascular coagulation, increased infections, including COVID due to immunosuppression, cancer, autoimmune diseases, infertility, miscarriage, and many more.
This modified RNA genocide is the greatest medical crime in human history, a humanitarian disaster of unprecedented proportions. Currently, the pharmaceutical industry is working on transferring all vaccinations to the modified RNA vaccine platform. It is doing so, though just being able to count and to distinguish for and from self, even having a trace of intelligence complications, is enough to realize that the modified RNA vaccine platform is totally nonsensical and life-threatening. Its two fundamental flaws are the injection of the construction plan for a protein foreign to the body without having any control over which body cells will produce it, in what dose and for how long, and the fact that the cells who are coerced to produce this foreign protein and then present it on the surface will be mistakenly recognized by our immune system as foreign, thus destroyed, much like the rejection of a foreign organ transplanted into you.
The alleged modified RNA vaccination coerces your body to produce a toxin in an unknown dose, and for an unknown period of time, and literally transforms parts of you into an alien. Therefore, the entire modified RNA vaccine platform must be banned immediately.
Your government is currently negotiating a pandemic treaty with the WHO. If it signs it, the WHO will be placed above the constitution of your country, and not only you, but also your government and your parliament will lose all freedom of choice. Who controls the WHO controls the world. The only reasonable, 100% effective and safe prevention of another criminal pandemic is immediate smashing of the WHO into a thousand pieces.
Dear fellow humans, if you have been injected once or even several times, and perhaps even suffer from severe side effects of the modified RNA injections, do not despair. More and more responsible doctors are willing to help you, and more and more responsible scientists are researching for, one day, being able to treat even their most complex side effects. I think with the modified RNA injections, it is like with smoking. It is almost never too late to give it up and to live healthier.
Whether you were injected or not, wake up, give your spine a booster, stand up and tell the manufacturer, your alleged experts, your government, your parliamentarians, your generals, and your authorities who have, from the point of view of the populace, totally failed in the COVID scandal. Enough is enough!
Step back at last and then stand in chorus. Do this, and do this, if not for yourself, then for a future living for your children and grandchildren. Now.
Bravo, Dr. Binder! Enough is Enough!

After the January 2023 rescission of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s August 2021 military vaccine mandate, service members are still suffering at the behest of its untested and unlawful implementation.
The Gateway Pundit spoke with Captain Rebecca Tummers, an officer set to leave the Army at the end of August after 10 years of service. At the height of the coronavirus pandemic, Capt. Tummers was one of thousands of service members reluctant to take the COVID-19 vaccine due to concerns about the expedited timeline to create, test, and manufacture the vaccine.
According to her, “This rush to failure attitude did not take adequate time to identify possible negative side effects to the vaccine, nor populations that may be at increased risk of negative side effects.”
After months of declining the shot, she was “told staunchly” that she would soon forfeit her ability to earn a high evaluation if she continued to refuse the shot. The Army also threatened to separate her from service.
As previously reported by The Gateway Pundit, many service members were coerced into receiving the shot. They were made to feel as though it were an obligation to progress, and even maintain their careers.
Interestingly, Capt. Tummers said, “I had already secured my next job and really didn’t need a good eval, [admitting] I was willing to take the risk [a poor evaluation] so I continued to resist the vaccine.” While she would have willingly accepted the poor evaluation, her brigade and battalion commanders hit her with something she couldn’t ignore.
“The awards and positive personnel actions for my soldiers would not be processed if they came from a commander who had not been vaccinated,” she explained. “Therefore, any of us who were unvaccinated and submitting packets for a soldier to go to a school or to get an award for something good that they had done, that paperwork would not be processed.”
With that, Capt. Tummers was stripped of her “stubbornness,” she said. “Threatening the people that I’m responsible for and have an obligation to changed the dynamic entirely, [as] I wouldn’t do anything that would put their well-being or the future of their careers on the line because of my failure to get a vaccine.”
Capt. Tummers took the shot in March 2021, reconciling her action by saying she “would die for these soldiers if I had to, so what is another shot in comparison to that?” While her decision has not resulted in death or severe medical complications, it has placed another unexpected burden upon her that refuses to relent.
Inexplicable Symptoms
In November 2021, after serving three years at Fort Cambell, Capt. Tummers returned to the installation where she had begun her career: Fort Bragg, now known as Fort Liberty. However, her arrival to North Carolina was plagued by what was assumed to be a series of inexplicable allergic reactions.
“This was a bit strange, [considering] I had lived here just a few short years ago,” she said. Attributing her reaction to pollen, she tried “every [antihistamine] under the sun” to no avail.
Severe inflammation around her face and eyes landed her in the emergency room on several occasions. “It was extremely uncomfortable and just embarrassing and humiliating to go in public,” she shared. At the time, corticosteroids appeared to be the only solution.
In October 2022, Capt. Tummers was deployed to Baghdad, Iraq. She began to experience similar stateside symptoms to include not only swelling of the face and eyes, but also hives all over her body.
“I came back [to the United States] and put my foot down with the doctors,” she said, having grown tired of attempting to ward off the symptoms. After blood tests which included positive results for the high presence of antinuclear antibodies, an allergist failed to pinpoint the trigger to her reactions. A rheumatologist also struggled to identify the culprit to her ongoing problem, calling them benign idiopathic allergic responses.
Capt. Tummers was told that these cases are often triggered when people contract viruses or receive certain vaccinations. She then asked: “Did you receive the COVID-19 injection?” In fact, Capt. Tummers had taken the shot just months before her symptoms began and had gotten a booster for her deployment when her reactions increased in frequency, duration, and extremity. Her rheumatologist admitted that she was seeing an increasing number of cases like hers, and that “it is an unfortunate reality.”
“Over time I had begun to develop my suspicions that my reactions were related to the COVID-19 shot,” Capt. Tummers disclosed. “I went back through my medical history, my reactions, and the timelines associated with both, and after the meticulous inventory, it seemed like it was a plausible culprit, but I knew talk about the vaccine was a very polarizing issue,” she shared. “I was hesitant to bring it up with my medical providers because I knew they would be very resistant to admitting that the vaccine was the problem.”
She concluded, “They were the ones administering the shots so they would have every reason to defend its efficacy and safety.” And by her estimation, “To administer something harmful to people would have been deemed unethical and violated every medical provider’s code of ethics.”
Despite once giving military leadership and medical providers the benefit of the doubt, Capt. Tummers now knows the unlawfulness of the Secretary of Defense’s now-rescinded COVID-19 military vaccine mandate. Service members were never offered a vaccine with full FDA approval and licensure. Rather, they were subjected—without informed consent—to a vaccine issued under emergency use authorization (EUA).”
Today, Capt. Tummers makes a three-hour drive to undergo immunotherapy treatments twice per week, using her body’s own immune system to fight the symptoms she has determined were caused by the COVID-19 injection. “While I’m told that I’m just having benign, idiopathic allergic responses,” she said, “I’m hoping immunotherapy will eventually resolve all of this as I continue to undergo blood tests to determine if there is a bigger cause of the arbitrary symptoms I’ve developed.”
Recruiting and Retention Suffer
According to Capt. Tummers, “The vaccine did nothing to increase readiness of the force.” She explained, “Vaccinated soldiers still contracted the virus and went on 14-day quarantines, forcing us to operate with minimal manning.”
In addition, she said, “retention decreased as they enforced the mandate.” For example, she said, “many soldiers became ill after the vaccine and are no longer deployable or are receiving medical separation boards for medical ailments that came after the vaccine.”
Prior to the vaccine mandate, she noted, there were no existing cases of soldiers dying due to contracting COVID-19. “There were few existing cases of soldiers being hospitalized due to severe COVID-19 symptoms,” she said.
“For people like me who have been impacted negatively by the shot, there needs to be some sort of acknowledgement that some people did in fact have a negative response and those people were forced to get the vaccine against their own judgement,” Capt. Tummers asserted.
Like thousands of others are demanding, it begins with the acknowledgement that the COVID-19 shot mandate was unlawful and harmful, and those who pushed it must be held accountable. Thousands have come alongside service members by signing a petition that accompanies the Declaration of Military Accountability.

Activist Briahna Joy Gray was fired from The Hill after she was caught rolling her eyes while interviewing the sister of an Israeli hostage taken by Hamas.
‘It finally happened. The Hill has fired me,’ Gray said on X on Thursday alongside an image of her notice of termination from the outlet.
She added: ‘There should be no doubt that @RisingHill has a clear pattern of suppressing speech — particularly when it’s critical of the state of Israel.’
Her firing follows social media backlash after she received criticism over how she handled Yarden Gonen, the sister of Israeli hostage Romi Gonen, on October 7.
In a display typical of the socialist left, Bernie Sanders’ ex-press secretary, known for her socialist ties, condescendingly rolled her eyes and rudely cut off Yarden when she expressed the hope that Gray believes the women who have accused Hamas of sexual assault.
‘I really hope that you, specifically, will believe women when they say that they got hurt,’ Gonen said.
The political commentator cut in, saying: ‘All right thanks for joining. Stick around.’
Throughout the interview, Gray tried to focus on Israel’s actions in Gaza, while Yarden repeatedly stated she did not want to speak politics and only wanted to raise awareness about her sister and other hostages.
Yarden said: ‘I am here to talk about my sister; please, help me spread her story. Help me make people understand what she is going through as a woman in 2024.’
Online critics are now trying to cancel Gray, accusing her of blatant anti-Semitism and cold-heartedness.
Carly Pildis of the Anti-Defamation League condemned her, stating: “Gray’s sneering and eye-rolling at the suffering of Israelis is a clear act of dehumanization.”
‘She cannot bear to witness Israelis as human and deserving of sympathy. My global Jewish community suffers the blowback of antisemitism Briahna has propagated.’
It is no secret that Gray believes Israel, in its current form, should no longer exist as a state, and she has spoken freely about her views on Israel.

In a panel at last month’s Dissident Dialogue festival, Gray said: “When Hamas talks about eliminating Israel, it’s not talking about killing all Jews.”.
‘It’s about eliminating the idea of a Jewish state — ending a Jewish state, ending an ethno-nationalist state and having a state more like what we have in the United States of America.’
After the panel, as reported by the New Republic, Gray told the moderator: ‘This is the most Islamophobic, racist audience I’ve ever seen.
She added: ‘It’s disgusting. I hope someone drops a bomb on this entire building.’
Yikes. This is what they mean when someone says, “eating their own.”

Mexican Health Secretary Jorge Alcocer has refuted claims made by the World Health Organization (WHO) regarding the cause of death of a 59-year-old man in Mexico. The WHO had earlier announced that the man had succumbed to a new strain of bird flu that had not previously been found in humans.
During a morning briefing on Thursday, Alcocer vehemently denied the WHO’s announcement and clarified that the man died due to complications from kidney and respiratory failure, not from avian influenza, according to AA.
“I can point out that the statement made by the World Health Organization is pretty bad, since it speaks of a fatal case (of bird flu), which was not the case,” Alcocer said firmly.
The health secretary further suggested that the WHO failed to recognize that the patient’s death resulted from complications associated with longstanding health problems such as diabetes and renal failure. Investigations conducted found no evidence of contagion among people who had been in contact with the patient.
“So far, there is no evidence of human-to-human transmission,” he added.
Further complicating matters, the WHO, in its own briefing, acknowledged that the Mexico National Influenza Centre confirmed a positive result for A(H5N2) influenza in the deceased. However, Alcocer announced plans to convene with the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases for further clarification.
The Gateway Pundit was among the first media outlets to criticize the situation as another instance of fearmongering.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the World Health Organization (WHO) issued a warning about a new strain of bird flu, H5N2, that has apparently jumped to humans.
The announcement comes following the death of a 59-year-old man in Mexico, who was reportedly infected with this strain. However, given the timing and the details surrounding this case, it’s hard not to question whether we’re dealing with another episode of fear-mongering or a genuine public health concern.
The WHO’s press release paints a grim picture: a man with multiple underlying health conditions, bedridden for weeks before developing acute symptoms, tragically succumbs to this new strain of bird flu. Yet, it also states that the risk to the general population is assessed as low. So why the dramatic announcement and the global alert?
“On 23 May 2024, the Mexico IHR NFP reported to PAHO/WHO a confirmed case of human infection with avian influenza A(H5N2) virus detected in a 59-year-old resident of the State of Mexico who was hospitalized in Mexico City and had no history of exposure to poultry or other animals. The case had multiple underlying medical conditions. The case’s relatives reported that the case had already been bedridden for three weeks, for other reasons, prior to the onset of acute symptoms,” according to WHO.
The man’s death is undoubtedly tragic, but it’s important to remember that he was already severely ill before contracting this virus. Moreover, no other cases have been reported during the epidemiological investigation.
Out of 17 contacts identified and monitored at the hospital where the patient died, only one reported a minor symptom – a runny nose. Furthermore, twelve additional contacts near the patient’s residence were tested and all found negative for SARS-CoV-2, influenza A and influenza B.
It is also worth noting that this particular strain of bird flu was found in poultry farms in Mexico as early as March 2024. Yet, there has been no established link between these outbreaks and the human case reported by WHO.

Biden’s corrupt Justice Department indicted a Texas surgeon who blew the whistle on a sex-change program at the Texas Children’s Hospital.
In May 2023, Dr. Eithan Haim leaked the sex change documents to investigative reporter Christopher Rufo. Dr. Haim was careful not to disclose any patient information but the Biden DOJ indicted him on four felony counts related to HIPAA violations.
One day after Dr. Haim exposed the Texas Children’s Hospital, the Texas state legislature voted to ban transgender medical treatment and procedures on minors.

— Christopher F. Rufo
Dr. Haim was informed last year that he was under federal investigation for leaking documents to Christopher Rufo.
On Tuesday, heavily armed agents showed up at Dr. Haim’s door and told him that he had been indicted with four felony charges.
“Had three heavily armed agents at my door 7AM Tuesday to inform me I was indicted with four felonies…for blowing the whistle about the largest children’s hospital in the world lying to the public about their transgender program,” Dr. Eithan Haim said on X.

“My name is Eithan Haim. I am a 33-year-old general surgeon who was the anonymous whistleblower in a story released May 16, 2023 by Christopher Rufo. We exposed the fact that Texas Children’s Hospital – the largest children’s hospital in the world – was lying to the public about the existence of their transgender program. In part due to the story’s release, the very next day, the Texas Legislature voted, with bipartisan support, to ban transgender medical interventions on minors. The conduct we exposed became illegal in the State of Texas within 24 hours of our story,” the Dr’s GiveSendGo said.
“Just over a month later, on June 23rd, 2023, a few hours before my graduation from surgical training, two federal agents showed up to my apartment in a highly atypical, unexpected, and aggressive show of force. Despite their best attempt at launching a surprise interview, I insisted on having an attorney present. Before leaving, however, I was given a target letter signed by a federal prosecutor that stated I was being criminally investigated for a case regarding “medical records.”” – he said.
“Since no laws had been violated (no personally identifiable patient health information was disclosed), this was nothing more than a blatant attempt at political intimidation. We believe this case is being driven by a highly ideological division within the Department of Health and Human Services that aims to silence whistleblowers who expose institutionalized medical corruption and the dangers of these hormone-based interventions for confused, adolescent children,” Dr. Haim added.

Dr. Ben Carson joined CNN recently and discussed Trump’s rally in the Bronx, the economic disaster under Biden, and whether he will accept the 2024 election results.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Carson was one of seven people vetted by the Trump campaign as a potential Vice President pick for Trump.
Midway through his interview, CNN anchor Laura Coates asked Dr. Carson, ” Will you accept the results of the 2024 election regardless of who wins?”
Carson responded “I will accept the results if it’s done in a fair and transparent way.”
Coates followed up by asking, “Do you have reason to doubt it would be done in a fair and transparent way?”
“Well, let me put it this way: in the 2020 election, there were a lot of irregularities. I think everybody on both sides should be aware of that and should be working to satisfy that.
Coates responded that there was no evidence of widespread voter fraud during the 2020 election.
Carson rebutted, “The fact there are so many people who are skeptical should raise questions for us, the fact that a country like France outlawed general mail-in balloting in 1975 because they said there were too many opportunities for mischief.”
The former HUD Secretary under the Trump administration concluded, “I think having an election season rather than an election day is a mistake.”

As the Gateway Pundit previously reported, in an interview with News 12 New York, Trump mentioned Carson as a potential VP pick and shared, “You could take people like Ben Carson, Marco Rubio, or J.D. Vance. I mean, there’s so many. Elise is doing a fantastic job.”
Ben Carson, who became a household name after being the first neurosurgeon to separate conjoined twins, ran for President in 2016 but later suspended his campaign and endorsed Trump.
In the first nine months of 2015, Carson outraised all the Republican presidential nominees in small-dollar donors.
Carson also hails from Michigan, a swing state much needed for Trump in 2024.

In a decisive victory for justice, the Florida Supreme Court has affirmed Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ courageous removal of George Soros-backed State Attorney Monique Worrel in 2023 for what he called “dereliction of duty.”
The landmark ruling is a clear warning to activist prosecutors across the nation.
DeSantis said of Worrel at the time, “The practices and policies of her office have allowed murderers, other violent offenders, and dangerous drug traffickers to receive extremely reduced sentences and escape the full consequences of their criminal conduct. In some cases, these offenders have evaded incarceration altogether.”
Although Worrel sued for reinstation, the state Supreme Court ruled against her.
The opinion stated, “We cannot agree with Worrel that the allegations in the Executive Order are impermissibly vague, nor that they address conduct that falls within the lawful exercise of prosecutorial discretion.”
The majority opinion stated, “We have said that a suspension order does not infringe on a state attorney’s lawful exercise of prosecutorial discretion where it alleges that such discretion is, in fact, not being exercised in individual cases but, rather, that generalized policies have resulted in categorical enforcement practices.”
According to the Sentinel, during her 2020 campaign, Worrel received $1.5 million in support from the Soros-backed group Our Vote Our Voice.
Gov. DeSantis has prioritized protecting Florida’s residents from rogue prosecutors who pick and choose which laws to enforce, often through the biased lens of “social justice”.
He stated, “We’ve seen across this country over the last few years, individual prosecutors take it upon themselves to determine which laws they like and will enforce, and which laws they don’t like and won’t enforce. The results of this in cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco have been catastrophic. You can go in [a store] in San Francisco and steal a certain amount of merchandise, and by definition, you would not be prosecuted…”
DeSantis also suspended State Attorney Andrew Warren, who refused to enforce Florida’s abortion laws. That decision was also upheld by the courts.
“Warren said that it doesn’t matter what the legislature does in the state of Florida. He is going to exercise a veto over that. He’s also instituted policies of ‘presumptive non-enforcement’…that is not consistent with the role of a prosecutor. You can exercise discretion in individual case, but that discretion has to be individualized and case specific,” DeSantis said when he announced Warren’s suspension.

The chilling manifesto of Covenant School shooter Audrey Elizabeth Hale, a biological female who identified as a transgender male at the time of her horrific attack on March 27, 2023, has been leaked again.
Star News Digital Media, Inc., which owns and operates The Star, and the publication’s editor-in-chief, Michael Patrick Leahy, are plaintiffs in lawsuits seeking to compel the Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) and the FBI to release Hale’s writings, including those referred to as a manifesto.
The Tennessee Star confirmed on Wednesday that it had obtained nearly four dozen pages of Hale’s writings from a source familiar with the investigation. The March 11, 2023 entry revealed her intense desire to possess a “penis.”
Hale’s diary entry begins with the title “My Imaginary Penis” and includes a crude drawing. “My penis exists in my head. I swear to god I’m a male,” wrote Hale in the diary. She then expressed her desire to have a penis for heterosexual intercourse, according to The Tennessee Star.
Further into the document, Hale details the challenges faced when using the name Aiden on a job application, which led to complications during a background check. The writings also reveal a narrative of torment about being raised as a girl, describing it as “torture.”
“I hate parental views; how my mom sees me as a daughter – and she’d not bear to want to lose that daughter because a son would be the death of Audrey.”
On the second page of the entry, Hale further criticized her parents for their apparent lack of support for her transition, while also discussing the emergence of puberty blockers in 2007.
“I’d kill to have those resources; 2007 was the birth of puberty blockers and a newfound discovery for treatment of non-conforming transgender children,” wrote Hale, adding, “I was in the 6th grade, puberty already hit me.”
Hale’s fantasies about experiencing intercourse as a man involved creating scenes with stuffed animals. She admitted to spending hours enacting these fantasies and becoming so engrossed that she lost track of time.
“I can pretend to be them [and] do the things boys do [and] experience my boy self as Tony,” which Hale explained is her “stuffed boy doll” which she wrote “is like the boy I am in another form,” per The Tennessee Star.
This disturbing entry was written just 16 days before Hale committed her attack on the Covenant School, resulting in the death of three 9-year-old students and three adults.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Louder with Crowder has exclusively obtained the first three pages from the purported manifesto of Nashville shooter Audrey Hale.
However, seven Nashville police officers were placed on administrative leave following the leak of the ‘manifesto’ of school shooter Audrey Hale.
The manifesto, which was shrouded in secrecy since the shooting, revealed Hale’s plan to target ‘little crackers’ and ‘white privileged’ individuals, which sparked a heated debate over whether it should be made public.
The local authorities and FBI refused to release the manifesto to the public following the mass shooting by Hale in March.
It can be recalled that Nashville Police told FOX News in late April that they would finally release the manifesto of the trans shooter that they recovered from her car following the attack on March 27, 2023.
The release of the manifesto was delayed again in early May 2023. Michael LaChance reported, “The excuse this time is that there is ‘pending litigation’ around the document. Does anyone believe any of this?”
The Daily Mail reported in May that the manifesto is now in the judge’s hands.
A judge in Nashville has been provided with an unredacted copy of the trans shooter manifesto. And it could be soon released to the public.
According to Fox News 17, the judge was given two versions of the manifesto to review: one with no redactions and another with proposed redactions made by city attorneys.
However, lawyers at The Covenant School filed a motion of intervention to prevent the release of trans shooter Audrey Hale’s manifesto, arguing that doing so would compromise the safety of the school, its staff, and its students.
The fight to pull the manifesto of school shooter Audrey Hale from the grip of authorities brought danger to one journalist-businessman who had filed a lawsuit to learn what the killer wrote before the massacre at a Nashville Christian school in March that left three children and three adults dead.
Radio talk show host Michael Patrick Leahy, who has filed a lawsuit to release the manifesto, received an ugly threat on July 9, 2023, according to Just the News.
The release by Steven Crowder last year sent Nashville officials scrambling, with the city’s mayor requesting an investigation into the concerning leak.
“I have directed Wally Dietz, Metro’s Law Director, to initiate an investigation into how these images could have been released. That investigation may involve local, state, and federal authorities. I am deeply concerned with the safety, security, and well-being of the Covenant families and all Nashvillians who are grieving,” said Democratic Mayor of Nashville, Freddie O’Connell.
The Chief of Police in Nashville, John Drake, has acknowledged the authenticity of the documents in a public announcement, expressing his deep concern over the unauthorized disclosure of three pages from the manifesto.
“I am greatly disturbed by today’s unauthorized release of three pages of writings from the Covenant shooter,” said Drake in a release. “This police department is extremely serious about the investigation to identify the person responsible.”
“We are not at liberty to release the journals until the courts rule,” he said. “Our police department looks forward to the ultimate resolution of the litigation concerning the journals.”

In an irrational move that defies common sense, Governor Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., has proposed severe cuts to essential public safety budgets, targeting prisons and law enforcement.
This comes as California battles a huge budget deficit. Instead of addressing financial responsibility, Newsom is doubling down on his radical climate agenda, prioritizing so-called “equity” over the safety and well-being of Californians.
The California Democrat’s proposed budget, released in May, notes that “difficult decisions” are necessary to address the estimated $27.6 billion deficit, which is projected to continue for years to come. It includes a $97 million cut to trial court operations, $10 million to the Department of Justice’s Division of Law Enforcement and more than $80 million to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
A Newsom spokesperson initially told Fox News Digital that there were “no cuts to law enforcement.”
“The budget proposes numerous ways to make government more efficient and reduce costs for taxpayers, including cuts on inmate spending. Since Governor Newsom took office in 2019, the state has made record investments in law enforcement, including $1.1 billion to tackle crime, support police, and hold criminals accountable,” the spokesperson said.
Officials from the Department of Finance acknowledged, however, that the state’s proposed budget for Justice was reduced by 1.6%.
“What’s happening in California is just the greatest disrespect of taxpayer’s resources in the history of America,” Florida’s chief financial officer, Jimmy T. Patronis, told Fox News Digital. “They’re in a panic. They’re in a free fall. They’re looking for money to make up this enormous budget deficit they’ve got right now.”

The San Francisco Centre saw retailers such as Aldo, J.Crew, and Madewell close their stores this year alone. According to a report, major stores have been leaving the city and malls with vacancies in Northern California. Zara is expected to close by 2025, following Macy’s and The North Face.
According to the latest crime statistics, there have been 8,686 thefts in San Francisco since January 1, not including 1,962 burglaries and 2,298 motor vehicle thefts.
The $80 million cut from the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is intended to eliminate 4,600 beds across 13 prisons. Newsom also proposed slashing law enforcement training and cutting $4.4 million from county probation departments.
The California State Legislature, meanwhile, is pushing against some of the proposed cuts regarding public safety, particularly a $15 million decrease from the DOJ, Department of Finance deputy director for external affairs H.D. Palmer told Fox News Digital.
“These proposed reductions are unallocated reductions, meaning that it would be up to the department as to how they would be implemented,” Palmer said.
Legislators have until June 15 to approve the budget, which takes effect in July.

The first guilty verdict in history in the first criminal trial against a President isn’t slowing Trump down.
Last night, President Trump told the crowd at his Arizona rally that he raised “almost $400 Million” in the week after the verdict in his “rigged trial.”
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg indicted Trump in April 2023 on 34 felony counts related to ‘hush payments’ he made to Stormy Daniels.
There was no crime, but the Democrats ratcheted up what would be a misdemeanor to a felony in order to bypass the statute of limitations, and Marxist Judge Juan Merchan helped to rig the trial for a guilty verdict.
Trump was accused of paying porn star Stormy Daniels, AKA Stephanie Clifford, ‘hush payments’ through his then-attorney Michael Cohen, who the media and prosecutors falsely labeled his “fixer,” in a scheme to silence her and stop the story about their alleged affair from being published in the National Enquirer.
The jury returned a verdict in Alvin Bragg’s lawfare ‘hush money’ trial on Thursday: Guilty on all 34 counts! In just hours following the verdict, Trump raised MORE THAN $34 MILLION for his campaign.
It was later revealed that Trump raised $52.8 million in the 24 hours after he was found guilty.
Additionally, The Gateway Pundit reported yesterday on new polling data that shows Trump continuing to lead Biden following the sham trial and guilty verdict.
Trump's sentencing was set for July 11, but on November 5, the American people are set to sentence Trump to four years starting on January 20.
While delivering remarks on Thursday in Arizona, President Trump gave an update on his massive fundraising numbers since the guilty verdict, saying, "More campaign funds were given to this campaign than any campaign they think in history."
Watch below:
Trump: I just went through a rigged trial in New York with a highly conflicted, and I mean highly conflicted, judge, where there was no crime. It was made-up, fabricated stuff. They didn't want to bring the case. They could have brought the case seven years ago. It's only when you run for office they bring cases. But they would have done that seven years ago think not in the middle of my presidential campaign, where we're beating Biden, by the way, by a lot. Did you see?
And by the way, right after the announcement of this, more campaign funds were given to this campaign than any campaign they think in history. almost $400 million, 400! Nobody's ever seen it because they know it was rigged. They know it's a corrupt system. They know all about it. But with your help, less than five months from now, and I'll tell you what, we have to change the system. We have to straighten out what's going on in these courts. We got a rigged deal going, this whole country, and we've got to do it. And those appellate courts have to step up and straighten things out or we're not going to have a country any longer.

Argentine Pope Francis, the Globalist, makes every effort to be popular among liberals, and to be perceived as ‘politically correct’ – even if it means making Catholic dogma and doctrine take the back seat.
But, as I wrote before, nothing will ever be enough for these leftist groups.
Not only that, but Francis is an elderly man from a much different generation, and also a powerful political figure who is in love with his own voice, with a need to speak even when silence would be the best answer.
Now, in a very ironic turn of events, the Globalist Pope sees himself surrounded by fierce criticism from the very groups he always worked so hard to please and appease.
Reuters reported:
“Francis was quoted by Italian media as using the Italian term ‘frociaggine’, roughly translating as […] ‘faggotry’, in a closed-door May 20 meeting with Italian bishops. The Vatican issued an apology, but after that, other Italian reports attributed more gay slurs to the pope, as well as chauvinist language associating women with gossip, in a separate meeting with Roman priests.”
Friends of the pontiff have taken to the press to speak ‘off the record’ in his support.
At the same time, sympathetic analysts say this ‘PR disaster’ ‘should not obscure his record as a reforming, LGBT-friendly pope’.
“However, some say the 87-year-old’s gaffe fits into a pattern of papal missteps that undermine his authority and raise questions about his convictions and the reform path he has in mind for the Church.
[…] Francis has a reputation for having a salty tongue, especially in private, so while the reported anti-gay slurs shocked many, they did not seem out of character to people who know him.
‘I’m obviously not justifying his use of an offensive term … but it is normal for him in private to speak very, very directly’, papal biographer Austen Ivereigh said. ‘He doesn’t talk like a politician’.”
There’s even an ‘unnamed longtime gay friend of the Pope’ trying to help him in the midst of this ‘off the records deluge’, and say that Francis has always known he has a problem with foul language, calls himself a ‘bocon’, which means ‘big mouth’ in Spanish – someone who can’t keep from speaking.
“The same source said Francis had come ‘a long way in terms of openness towards LGBT rights’ for a man of his generation, noting he grew up in a very conservative family that considered divorcees – let alone gay people – social pariahs.”
But still, the pope’s profanity has left many offended, which is the standard intellectual stance of these groups, anyway.
Francis’ most damning ‘gaffe’ came as he discussed with bishops the question of gay candidates for priesthood.
The issue is sensitive and urgent for the Italian Catholic Church, given the an active gay ‘subculture’ in some of its seminaries.

Joe Biden on Friday delivered a speech on ‘protecting democracy’ and the legacy of Pointe du Hoc in Normandy, France.
Biden, who had his main political rival Donald Trump arrested, is lecturing the world on protecting democracy.
“As we gather here today, it’s not just to honor those who showed such remarkable bravery that day June 6, 1944,” Biden said standing next to the Pointe du Hoc monument. “It’s to listen to the echo of their voices. To hear them. Because they are summoning us. They’re asking us what will we do. They’re not asking us to scale these cliffs. They’re asking us to stay true to what America stands for.”

Is the court working with former Dominion executive Eric Coomer in his defamation lawsuit against President Trump and others?
On Thursday, in a deposition with Colorado businessman and entrepreneur Joe Oltmann, Coomer’s attorneys and the court demanded Oltmann disclose his source, who he used to infiltrate the local antifa group online.
Former Dominion executive Eric Coomer became famous after the 2020 Election when videos like this of Coomer showing how to alter votes were found on the Internet.
At the same time, after the 2020 Election, Joe Oltmann disclosed that he heard Coomer share on a conference call before the election that he (Coomer) would ensure that Trump would not win the 2020 Election.
This information went viral and was shared by The Gateway Pundit and others.
In late December 2020, Coomer sued Oltmann and a select group of others who shared Oltmann’s disclosure, including Sidney Powell, Jim Hoft, radio host Eric Metaxas, conservative commentator Michelle Malkin, and more.
This case has been overseen by numerous judges, who have taken some questionable actions. Thursday’s actions were no exception.
Clark, TGP, and others are being sued for sharing the information that Oltmann reported. It’s questionable why any judge would include these individuals in this case.
Oltmann was deposed by Coomer’s attorneys, who were scheduled to take oral and video testimony.

128-Level 1 Restricted MINUTE ORDER Re Oltmann (20240409) by Joe Ho on Scribd
The venue, as noted above, was the Jury Room of the Courtroom of the Honorable Magistrate Judge Kathryn A. Starnella, located in the Byron G. Rogers Federal Courthouse in downtown Denver.
Oltmann disclosed that the room was very hot on Thursday, at around 78 degrees. This likely was to make it look like he was sweating when answering questions.
The Coomer team went on to ask Oltmann about 100 questions over a three-hour period. There was a short lunch break, and after that, when Oltmann came back to the courthouse, Eric Coomer joined his attorneys in the room.
Coomer’s attorneys asked Oltmann, who gave him the information about the phone call that Joe attended, where Coomer allegedly made the statements that made headlines. Oltmann would not provide that information. (Note that Oltmann believes he doesn’t have to provide this information because Oltmann was a journalist with Conservative Daily at the time of the event.)
Coomer’s attorneys also asked how Joe gained access to Eric Coomer’s Facebook page, which was covered with comments and articles about Antifa, hating Trump, and more. Oltmann would not share that as well.
Eventually, Oltmann left before giving up his sources.
It now appears that this deposition was held in the courthouse so that the judge could step in and compel Oltmann to give up his source. This may have been coordinated between Coomer’s attorneys and the judge.
Oltmann refused to give up his source and left the building. This infuriated the Coomer attorneys. We will post updates as soon as we hear more.

“In Colorado, Dominiom Voting attorneys and a corrupt judge tried to force a journalist to reveal his source that gave up damning information on Dominion. They cornered him in a deposition, he held his ground and WALKED OUT of the courtroom
The Conservative Daily journalist & businessman Joe Oltmann also said they set the room temperature at around 78 degrees. This was likely done to make it look like he was sweating when answering questions.
The case has been overseen by a few different judges, a clear sign that they wanted to find the most crooked judge.
Dominion is in desperation mode, trying everything to silence the truth.”

After an impressive close second-place finish in the women’s 400-meter medley at the World Aquatics Championships in Qatar earlier this year, Israeli swimmer Anastasia Gorbenko acknowledged the emotional weight of representing her country amid global turmoil over the Oct. 7 attacks by Hamas and Israel’s counter-offensive in Gaza.
“I’m just so happy to be here and represent my country in this hard time. Being here with the Israeli flag means a lot to me and to my country, so that’s the best I can do,” Gorbenko, whose parents are from Ukraine but was born and raised in Israel, said in an interview that was amplified to the crowd.
Some boos rained down from the crowd when Gorbenko crossed the finish line, but louder heckling began at the swimmer’s first mention of Israel in the interview. Others in the crowd quickly tried to drown out the jeers and boos with applause and cheers. It was the first time Gorbenko has medaled in the World Championships in the 400-meter medley, though she’s been a strong competitor in the past, finishing the 2021 World Championships with a gold in both the 50-meter breaststroke and the 100-meter medley.
The meet’s organizers provided more security for the medal ceremony and the victory walk, and the crowd wasn’t allowed as close to the ceremony as usual. The award presentation went off without a hitch, but the anti-Israel message was delivered, making international headlines on CNN, the Associated Press, Reuters, and numerous other news outlets.
The incident came as no surprise to parents and supporters of the Israeli Olympic swimming team, who had spent months urging the World Aquatics Federation to relocate the February meet planned for Doha to a more neutral location.
They argued that failing to do so would risk the Israeli team’s security and subject the young athletes to a predictable intimidation campaign that could impact their performances. Nearly all of those who didn’t attend were training on U.S. college campuses, including the University of California at Berkeley, Northwestern University, and Stanford University, where intense antisemitic protests have been roiling campuses for months, with many Jewish students expressing outrage and fear over being targeted for their faith and Jewish and Israeli heritage.
But the federation didn’t budge and moved forward with the World Championship in Doha as planned.
That event typically would have determined who qualifies for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Gorbenko obviously qualified, and several others on the team are well positioned to make the cut. But those supporting the Israeli team argue that the athletes who decided to sit out the Doha meet are no longer operating on a level playing field with their peers in other countries.
Even the three Israeli women’s team members who decided to compete in Doha took precautions by traveling with extra security and covering any logos mentioning Israel on their clothing and gear.
Now, some of the team’s supporters are pressing the International Olympic Committee and the World Aquatics Federation to provide more Olympic qualifying opportunities for the Israel athletes who decided to stay home and not risk competing in Doha.
Those supporting the Israeli swim team are pressing the federation for answers – Why should the athletes who decided not to attend the Doha event out of concern for their safety and ability to compete at their highest performance levels while under duress be punished when there’s such an easy fix?
The IOC and World Aquatics could easily allow make-up qualifying opportunities during the team trials in Netanya, Israel, scheduled this week from June 5-8, or at the European Championships in Belgrade June 10-23, advocates of the accommodation argue. Adding time trials, which are routinely conducted in connection with major meets, wouldn’t require extra costs or logistical issues.
Proponents argue that any qualifying Israeli relay could easily be added to the roster as a 17th team, and the athletes could swim in an unused lane in each of the added preliminary heats during the Olympics.
“I urgently request the IOC allow the Israel team to implement time-trials during their own Olympic trials in Netanya [this week] – where they can try to qualify for three additional relay events,” said Eric Spitz, a Jewish tech and sports businessman whose daughter is a dual citizen of Israel and the United States and an Israeli women’s swim team member. “This would allow Israeli athletes who could not compete safely in Doha a fair chance to chase their Olympic dreams.”
In his letter to the IOC, Spitz also referenced the 1972 Olympics massacre that occurred in Munich’s Olympic Village more than a half-century ago. Attackers affiliated with the Palestine Liberation Organization infiltrated Munich’s Olympic Village and carried out the attack, which would eventually leave 11 Israeli athletes dead, along with a West German policeman and five of the eight assailants.
After the death of his Olympic teammates, legendary swimmer Mark Spitz (no relation to Eric Spitz), who won seven gold medals and set seven world records at the 1972 Munich games, was forced to flee Germany in haste, hidden under a blanket and fearing for his life.
During a 2022 event in Tel Aviv, IOC President Thomas Bach demonstrated a keen awareness of Jewish athletes’ security concerns. During a 2022 event in Tel Aviv, he apologized for waiting 50 years to commemorate the Israeli victims of the Munich Massacre “in a dignified way,” labeling the event one of the “darkest days in Olympic history.”
Earlier this year, Bach also acknowledged the need for “special measures” to be taken to protect Israeli athletes, given the “heinous attack” on the Israeli team in 1972.
“The 1972 Munich Olympics serve as a tragic reminder of what happens when Olympic values are compromised, so let us not repeat those mistakes,” Eric Spitz wrote in his letter, addressed to IOC members.
The IOC declined to comment on whether it would provide more qualifying opportunities for the Israeli swimmers and suggested to RealClearPolitics that World Aquatics would be better suited to respond to questions about the need for more qualifying times for relays. World Aquatics did not provide a response to RCP’s repeated inquiries.
Deciding not to move the World Championship out of Qatar rankled advocates for fair treatment of Jewish and Israeli athletes in all sports. The country has recently tried to burnish its image, hosting the World Cup in 2022 despite an avalanche of criticism from human rights groups, but the comments of its minister of foreign affairs blaming Israel for the Oct. 7 assault drew intense international condemnation.
Other efforts to discriminate against or treat Jewish or Israeli athletes differently this year have sparked international controversy. The International Ice Hockey Federation earlier this year banned Israeli athletes from international competitions as a way to protect their security but then abruptly reversed that decision after a fierce backlash.
The Israeli hockey team won the silver medal last year in its division. After the Oct. 7 attacks, the IIHF decided to move a portion of a competition, originally to be held in Israel, to Bulgaria. But the move to ban Israeli hockey players from all international competition did not sit well with the National Hockey League, which expressed “significant concerns” about the decision.
FIFA, soccer’s global governing body, in mid-May postponed a decision on whether to temporarily suspend Israel over its offensive in Gaza and the West Bank, saying it would seek legal advice before considering a request by the Palestinian Football Association to expel the Israeli team. The motion called for Israel’s suspension over what it characterized as “international law violations committed by the Israeli occupation in Palestine, particularly in Gaza.”
Iran made a similar request in February to bar Israel’s national and club teams from competing in international play. Palestine Football Association Jibril Rajoub formally submitted the request, urging FIFA to “stand on the right side of history.” But Rajoub is hardly an ideal spokesman for the cause, as David May, research manager for Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, points out in a recent article.
Rajoub earned a life sentence from Israel in 1970 for throwing a grenade at an Israeli military truck – though Jerusalem released him 15 years later in a prisoner exchange. Rajoub has continued the open public threats, declaring in 2013 that he would drop a nuclear bomb on Israel if given the opportunity.
“Intimidation and harassment of Israeli athletes, sadly, is nothing new,” May told RealClearPolitics in an interview. “While young Israelis face the greatest competitors in the world, they must also contend with hostile venues.”
“Fortunately for Anastasia, she was wearing earplugs, which helped drown out the jeers as she earned the silver medal, but the hostile, inhospitable environment added for her another layer of adversity,” he argued. “Qatar – and any other prospective host – should ensure that all athletes can compete fairly. Ensuring fair play is the bare minimum for hosting athletic events, which should bring people together, not serve as stages for discrimination and hostility.”
The IOC and World Aquatics is obligated, May said, to provide Israeli swimmers with opportunities to qualify “that don’t require them to travel to one of the main patrons of Hamas, a terrorist group committed to Israel’s destruction.”
Spitz argues it’s only fair to allow the Israeli swimmers, including his daughter, who sat out the Doha meet, a chance to qualify for the summer Olympic games at a location where she and others feel secure and can fully concentrate on their performances.
“[Anastasia] Gorbenko’s unfortunate experience is a testament to the resilience and spirit of Israeli athletes,” Spitz said. “It also serves as vindication for the decision of those athletes who declined to attend.”
“The IOC must step up and show the courage to do what is right,” Spitz implored. “You have the responsibility and the power to make a decision that prioritizes the safety and well-being of all athletes.”

We’ve reported multiple times about the attacks against Caitlin Clark in her WNBA games since joining the league this year.
Clark’s games at the WNBA are the most watched WNBA games on ESPN and ABC ever.
Clark is bringing an estimated $100 million to the league and this is how the women respond.
This play by the WNBA team in Jersey was not called a foul.

Indiana congressman Jim Banks has had enough. He sent a letter to the WNBA requesting that the league take action.
Indiana U.S. Representative Jim Banks is calling on WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert to take action to protect Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark.
In a June 4 letter to Engelbert, Banks referenced Clark’s ability to increase viewership and attendance this season. The news of Banks’ letter to Engelbert was first reported by Outkick.
“Unfortunately, since joining the WNBA, Clark’s exceptionalism has been met with resentment and repeated attacks from fellow players,” Banks wrote.
Banks specifically mentioned the foul on Clark by the Chicago Sky’s Chennedy Carter, which was later upgraded to Flagrant 1. Carter shoulder-checked Clark as the Fever rookie was waiting for an inbound pass. Clark fell to the ground, and it was originally called an away-from-ball foul.
“During the Fever’s win over the Chicago Sky on Saturday, Chennedy Carter went out of her way to knock Clark to the floor while neither player had the ball,” said Banks, who is running against Democrat Valerie McCray to fill Mike Braun’s U.S. Senate seat. “Further, the excessive attack was visibly cheered on and supported by Carter’s teammate Angel Reese.”

While French President Emmanuel Macron’s constant warmongering is causing waves in the news cycles and generating considerable escalation, in itself it represents initiatives unlikely to have a meaningful effect on the battlefield.
Take, for instance, his intention to train a Ukrainian brigade of 4 thousand men in Ukraine. It will be welcome by Kiev, but he is putting French lives in the line for a result that does not move the needle.
The same goes for the fighter jets: France will now transfer an unknown number of Mirage 2000-5 fighter jets to Kiev – and will train Ukrainian pilots for that.
Great, right? Yes, but the mainstream media will not tell you, but these are the very same planes that Ukraine was dismissing – as lately as March 2024 – as aging and obsolete fourth generation aircraft.
But now, apparently the Mirage are back in line for combat.
Macron announced yesterday (6) that France will provide Ukraine with Mirage combat aircraft ‘to help the country’s defense against Russia’s aggression’.
Macron’s announcement came as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky joined world leaders in the 80th Anniversary of D-Day celebration.
Associated Press reported:
“Macron told the French public broadcaster he will announce Friday a new cooperation with Ukraine and the sale of French-made combat aircraft, the Mirage 2005, which will ‘allow Ukraine to protect its soil, its airspace’ against Russian attacks.
France will also start training Ukrainian pilots, Macron said as he reiterated that Ukraine should be allowed to use weapons provided by its Western allies to target Russian military targets and ‘neutralize the points from which (the country) is being attacked’.”
Any aircraft will be welcome in Kiev – that goes without saying – as Ukraine tries to hold Russian Federations forces all along the 600-mile long frontline.
As the arrival of promised F-16 Jets takes longer and longer, NATO allies are allowing Ukraine to use their supplied weapons to carry out limited attacks inside Russia.
Earlier, in late March, former Ukrainian Defense Ministry Oleksi Reznikov stated that the French Mirage 2000 fighters were an order of magnitude worse than fifth generation Russian Su-35s fighter jets, and Kyiv did not need them, preferring to focus on the elusive F-16s.
Slavyangrad on Telegram:
“Today, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have a MiG-29 fighter, which can ‘see” with a radar at 60 km, hit air targets – at 30 km. The enemy on the Su-35 ‘sees’ more than 200 km, can hit air targets at a distance of more than 140. ‘The Mirage 2000 has the same performance as the MiG-29. We will be happy to have any air platforms, but the main combat aircraft should be more modern’.”
But now, under new Defense Minister Rustam Umerov, the French fourth-generation, multi-role, supersonic single-engine fighters Mirage 2000 are back in play.

A Democrat congressional candidate has spilled the beans and revealed the complete Marxist nightmare likely in store for fans of President Trump if Democrats win in November.
Fox News reported Thursday that cannabis attorney Paula Collins, who is running to defeat Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) in New York’s 21st congressional district, uttered a horrifying comment about MAGA fans during a public Zoom Townhall that would make communist mass murderers Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong proud.
Collins explained to her fans that a Democrat victory in November is not enough to ‘save the country,’ even if there is “a resounding blue wave.” According to her, a final solution involving sending Trump supporters off to re-education camps is imperative as well.
“Even if we were to have a resounding blue wave come through, as many of us would like, putting it all back together again after we’ve gone through this MAGA nightmare and re-educating basically, which that sounds like a rather, a re-education camp,” the fascist candidate explained.
Psst, Collins: you’re not supposed to say that out loud. Democrats are expected to act as “defenders of democracy” and pledge unity before cracking down on their political enemies.
Alex DeGrasse, a senior advisor to Stefanik, unleashed on Collins for her fascist and un-American remark during an interview with the New York Post. He also noted the Marxist congressional candidate had carpet-bagged her way to the district to begin with.
As Fox News notes, Collins previously lived full-time in New York City before moving to Stefanik’s district in the spring of 2024.
“This radical New York City Democrat Socialist who literally is renting a bed and breakfast room in NY-21 was caught on tape saying she wants to force Trump voters through “re-education camps,'” DeGrasse said.
Everyone knows she will be defeated by Elise Stefanik by a historic margin,” he continued. “This is yet another reason why President Trump, Elise Stefanik, and voters in Upstate and across America will clean the Democrats’ clocks at the ballot box this November.”
Rather than take back her remarks, Collins instead DOUBLED DOWN on having MAGA fans “re-educated” in an interview with Fox News.
“We currently have lawmakers, including Rep. Elise Stefanik, who misquote or misunderstand the law,” she said. “Even if MAGA were to be resoundingly defeated, we would need to engage in widespread civics education, which both red and blue voters acknowledge has been slipping in recent years.”
“The goal would be such that regular citizens could understand the process by which the state courts process matters, compared to the federal court circuit, and so forth,” Collins added.

Democrat Attorney General Kris Mayes, who “won” the 2022 election by 280 votes from Trump-endorsed Abe Hamadeh, will launch a criminal investigation into Governor Katie Hobbs over a pay-to-play scheme.
As reported by The Gateway Pundit, these allegations stem from significant donations made to a dark money group, which was used for Hobbs’ inaugural events, potentially influencing state contract decisions.
Hobbs’ ethical conduct was called into question by GOP State Legislators after she solicited donations of up to $250,000 using a 501(c)(4) nonprofit group for inaugural events.
Interestingly, the nonprofit used by Hobbs shares an address with Coppersmith Brockelman PLC, the Democrat law firm that represented her in Kari Lake’s lawsuit challenging the 2022 midterm election results.
Among the donors to Hobbs’ inauguration were Sunshine Residential Homes and its affiliates, who contributed significant sums only to later receive a rate increase for their youth group home services.
According to The Arizona Republic reporter, Stacey Barchenger, “DCS approved what amounts to a nearly 60% increase in the rate that Sunshine Residential Homes Inc. charges to care for a child for a day, meaning potentially millions of dollars more going to the company at taxpayers’ expense.”
Interestingly, no other standard group home provider was approved for any rate increase during Hobbs’ tenure.
Sunshine Residential Homes initially sought a 20% rate increase in December 2022 but was denied by DCS on February 6, 2023. Just three days later, Sunshine donated $100,000 to a dark-money fund created by Hobbs’ campaign. Notably, the company had only recently begun contributing to political campaigns in Arizona.
Sunshine made two six-figure donations totaling 200,000 to the Arizona Democratic Party when Hobbs was running for governor. Additionally, Sunshine’s CEO and his wife personally donated nearly the maximum amount, 5,000 each, to Hobbs’ campaign. After Hobbs’ election, the company donated another $200,000, half of which went directly to Hobbs’ inauguration fund through her dark money group.
Sunshine’s Director of Programs, who had previously worked for DCS for a decade before joining Sunshine in 2022, also donated $5,000 to Hobbs’ gubernatorial campaign on the same day as his boss.
Republican Sen. TJ Shope, who leads the Arizona Senate’s Health and Human Services Committee, has issued letters to both Attorney General Kris Mayes and Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell, urging them to launch an investigation into the “pay-to-play scheme” involving Governor Katie Hobbs’ Office, the Arizona Department of Child Safety, and certain political donors, according to KJZZ.
Sen. Shope suggested that these transactions might breach multiple laws, including those related to bribery and conflicts of interest.
Today’s article on @azcentral by @sbarchenger brings many legal questions that are both criminal and civil in nature.

Now, the Arizona State Attorney General’s office has confirmed that it “will be opening an investigation” into these allegations, AZ Central reported.
“Thank you for your referral dated June 5, 2024, regarding Sunshine Residential Homes. The Criminal Division of the Attorney General’s Office is statutorily authorized to investigate the allegations and offenses outlined in your letter. To that end, the Attorney General’s Office will be opening an investigation,” wrote Mayes’ criminal division chief, Nick Klingerman.

In August 2013 I became very sick with what I thought was a cold. After a few days, I lost vision in my left eye and checked into the hospital. I found out that what I thought was a summer cold was actually sepsis; Strep bacteria was poisoning my bloodstream.
The bacteria blinded my left eye, ate a hole through my heart, caused five strokes on both sides of my brain, and forced the removal of my prosthetic left knee, which was taken out and replaced with a cement spacer for six months.
Dr. Richard Lee was the surgeon assigned to perform open heart surgery on me. Dr. Lee was the co-director at the Center for Comprehensive Cardiovascular Care at Saint Louis University Hospital at the time.
What was originally scheduled to last four hours ended up lasting twelve. My heart was severely damaged. Dr. Lee later told me at the time that this surgery was one of the most difficult of his career. He also said I only had a few days to live without the surgery.
Dr. Lee, Dr. Dan Hoft, and many others saved my life in 2013 when I was dying from a blood infection.
During this very difficult time, Steve Bannon was in charge at Breitbart.com. Steve, Larry Solov, and the late Mike Flynn (the writer) reached out to my assistant Andrea at the time and volunteered to keep The Gateway Pundit going until I was well enough to start writing again. Steve Bannon and my friends at Breitbart saved The Gateway Pundit.
Steve Bannon even ran a tribute for me on Breitbart News Sunday on SiriusXM, asking for prayers and support during my time of need. That was Breitbart.com. That was Steve Bannon.
Over the years, Steve has always been very kind, respectful, and generous to me. Steve and Larry awarded me the Breitbart Award for journalism in 2015 after my recovery.
On Thursday, a DC Court sentenced Steve Bannon to prison for four months starting on July 1st and lasting until the end of October 2024.
This happens to coincide with the US Presidential Election. And OBVIOUSLY, this is another way Democrats and DC elites are abusing power to rig the 2024 election for Joe Biden, a bumbling, ignorant fool, and Democrats.
We already saw this with Trump.
Now they are taking President Trump's top general off of the battle field for the four months before the election.
The wicked are stealing our country from us.
But, do not fret. The Lord promised us all:
Psalm 37: 12-29
"The wicked plot against the righteous and gnash their teeth at them; but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming."
Please pray for Steve and his family. Please pray for this country.
I reached out to Steve's team tonight. They told me to spread the word to Steve's friends and supporters to continue watching The War Room.
The post Steve Bannon Has Always Stood with All of Us — Today We Are Asking American Patriots to Stand with Steve Bannon appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
Yale Law Professor Jed Rubenfeld, a prominent legal scholar known for his work in constitutional law, privacy rights, and the First Amendment, has provided a legal roadmap for Donald Trump’s attorneys to potentially overturn the former president’s ‘guilty’ verdict before the crucial 2024 election.
In a recent video, Rubenfeld begins by explaining the complexities of the case.
“Nobody wants it to be the rule in America that if you’re a former president or if you’re running for President, you become a target for criminal prosecution,” said Rubenfeld.
Trump was found guilty of allegedly falsifying business records to conceal a second crime. The crux of the prosecution’s argument was that Trump’s reimbursements to his lawyer, Michael Cohen, a convicted perjurer, for hush money paid to Stormy Daniels were falsely recorded as legal expenses. The prosecution argued that these payments were campaign expenses meant to influence the 2016 election.
For the record, Jed Rudenfeld represented Robert Kennedy’s Children Health Defense, The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft, and several other independent voices in an antitrust lawsuit against members of the Trusted News Initiative back in 2023.
Rubenfeld points out that while paying hush money is not illegal, falsifying business records is. The complication arises from the necessity of proving a second crime that Trump was allegedly trying to conceal.
The prosecution suggested multiple theories, including New York tax violations and federal campaign finance violations, but did not definitively commit to any single one during the indictment.
Rubenfeld: “The prosecution says yes, those are false statements. Why? Because the payments were hush money payments and, more specifically, they were campaign expenses made to further his campaign. They weren’t legal expenses; they were hush money campaign expenses.
On the other side, Trump’s people say, ‘What are you talking about? Those are payments made to Trump’s lawyer for services he performed as a lawyer. Those are legal expenses.’ Believe it or not, you’ve got to answer that first question. If you think those were legal expenses, then there was no false business record, and Trump should not have been convicted.
But lots of people believe, as the prosecution said, that no, those were hush money campaign expenses, not legal expenses, so they were false. Okay, that’s step one, because Trump was not charged only with falsification of a business record. He was charged with falsifying a business record to conceal a second crime that he had already committed. That’s how the charges become felony charges.
If you’re wondering, it’s because he spaced out the payments over 12 months, generating three business records each time—almost three, you get to 34 counts of false business records. You may have read there are 34 counts. That’s the 34 counts.
But then the question is, what second crime is the state saying that he was trying to conceal through these allegedly false business records? So, it’s a two-step crime: falsifying business records in order to conceal a second crime that he had already committed.
So, what was the second crime? Well, that’s where things get tricky because the indictment didn’t say. The indictment said that he falsified business records to conceal a second crime, but it never said what the second crime was. And to this day, a lot of people are unsure what the jury thought because what the state did was it did not commit itself to what the second crime might be.”
Rubenfeld suggests that if he were representing Trump, he would challenge the conviction on several constitutional grounds.
Rubenfeld identifies three major constitutional challenges that Trump’s legal team could leverage:
Rubenfeld outlined the timeline and process ahead: “Now, when is sentencing scheduled for? Well, Judge Merchan has set it for July 11th. Will something happen between then and now? Yes. Trump’s team will ask for a judgment notwithstanding the verdict.”
“They’ll ask for Judge Merchan to throw out the jury’s verdict and find Trump innocent despite the verdict, and Judge Merchan will turn that down,” Rubenfeld said. “Then there will be arguments about what the sentence should be briefing on both sides, possibly even a hearing. Then on July 11th, sentencing will be announced. And at that point, that triggers the Trump team’s right to appeal.”
The appeal would first go to New York’s appellate level court before potentially reaching New York’s highest court, the Court of Appeals. From there, the case could ascend to the Supreme Court.
However, Rubenfeld identified a significant issue with this approach: time. The entire appeals process could take years, potentially influencing the outcome of the upcoming election due to perceptions around Trump’s ‘felon’ status.
“There are surveys, many polls in which a substantial number of American voters say they will not vote for Trump if he is convicted of a felony. Many independents say that, many Republicans even say that,” Rubenfeld said.
“If that’s true, an unlawful conviction in this case could interfere with and in fact decide the outcome of the next election of the next President of the United States”
Rubenfeld suggested an alternative course of action: file a federal lawsuit to seek an emergency temporary restraining order.
Rubenfeld: “Believe it or not, there is one other avenue that the Trump lawyers could pursue. They could sue in federal court and ask for an emergency, temporary restraining order. Restraining order of what? Well, let me tell you something that you might not know. You’ve probably been reading in the press if you’ve been reading about this case, that Trump is already a convicted felon. The jury has convicted him. He’s a convicted felon. Well, guess what? That’s not true.
You’re not a convicted felon because of a jury verdict; you’re not convicted unless the judge enters a judgment of guilt against you. The judge still has the power, as I told you before, to throw out that verdict and enter a judgment of acquittal.
You are not convicted until the judge enters that judgment of guilt. Now, in New York, it’s very likely that Judge Mershon will enter that judgment of guilt against Trump on the same day that he issues sentencing, that’d be July 11th.
So, what would this federal case be about? In this federal action, Trump would sue Judge Bragg and other state actors and ask the federal judge for an emergency, temporary restraining order halting Judge Mershon from entering that judgment of guilt until the federal courts have had an opportunity to review and rule on the serious constitutional arguments that exist here.
Let me tell you why I think that might be a very important thing to happen. Because going after a former President of the United States and somebody who is running for President now, that’s a very bad look for this country.
It’s an especially bad look when the folks bringing the case and the judge deciding it are members of the opposing political party. It’s an even worse look when the crime is so unclear that the state is ‘hiding the ball’ about what the actual charges are right up through the trial, and indeed into the trial.
And even now, we don’t know exactly what the jury found Trump guilty of. If you’re going to go after a former president and somebody who’s running for president now, the poll-leading candidate, if you’re a member of the other party and you’re going to do that, you better have the goods.”

Dr. Phil traveled to Mar-a-Lago to sit down with President Trump for an exclusive one-on-one interview.
Dr. Phil says he would like to sit down with all three of the top presidential candidates. Trump is his first interview. Robert Kennedy, Jr. may be second. Don’t hold your breath for any sit down with Old Joe. That’s not going to happen.
On the Democrat Party’s Destruction of the US Justice System
Dr. Phil: I called for the other day, and I don’t know if you saw it, but on Marriott Street Media, where I now do my show, I called for President Biden to stop all of this now. And of course, a lot of people said, Oh, he can’t stop it. It’s a state case. Well, okay, that’s an explanation for stupid people. But for people that understand how this works behind the scenes and all, I say the same thing. They need to stop this. They need to stop pursuing you. Since you started your campaign in 2015 to run for office, there have been so many attempts to get you off the board even before you started your campaign. Then once you were in office, two impeachment opportunities, they changed the rules to try to make it high crimes and misdemeanors. If there were business conflicts, and in this case, in this case. Never ends. It seems to be never-ending. And that is a distraction to you…
President Trump: …You just mentioned a question that I’m not allowed to talk about. Can you imagine? I’m the Republican nominee, and I’m not allowed to talk because a local judge from New York, appointed by Democrats, said, I can’t talk about it. It’s so unfair. And then he gives a jury charge. Nobody’s ever heard of a charge like this. He gave instructions to the jury. And by the way, the jury happened to be in a location that was almost no Republicans. You understand that?
Dr. Phil: Yeah. It was 87, 13 in the last two elections, Republican. And I know you can’t talk about it. I’m not under a gag order. I do know that the number three person in the Department of Justice took a pay cut and went down in stature to go to a state job and become one of the lead prosecutors in this case. But yet they say, Hey, Dr. Phil, why are you saying that President Biden needs to stop all of this. It’s a state case. That’s exactly why I’m saying it. Don’t be naive, people. Understand that there’s a power play going on here.
President Trump: It’s controlled by the White House and the DOJ, 100%.
Dr. Phil: Gerard Baker wrote in Wall Street Journal today, and I’m paraphrasing, but he said, What do we say to those people that are rejoicing over reducing law to the status of a weapon in the hands of the dominant political power? Because that’s what’s happening right now. It’s become a weapon, and that’s not what it’s intended for. That’s not what we need to be doing. Let’s let the people decide these, right?
President Trump: That’s right. That was a very good statement in the Wall Street Journal. I read that this morning, and it’s so true. I mean, it’s so accurate. They’ve weaponized to a level. They are trying to affect the the election… This is about November fifth, which I think is going to be the most important day in the history of our country. If we don’t turn this around, we’re not going to have a country left anymore.
Dr. Phil: Well, we’re a country of laws, right? And that’s what’s made us so orderly. That’s what’s allowed us to progress forward. And there’s something that called Black Letter law. These things have just been around so long, and these were violated in your case, one right after the other.
On Crazy E. Jean Carroll
President Trump: No, they didn’t… But if I didn’t run, as an example, I would have never had any of these lawsuits. How about I get prosecuted on a person that I have no idea who she is. I have no idea who she is. I have to pay $91 million. And that judge was just as bad, just as corrupt. A corrupt judge. I have to pay $91 million to a woman. I have no idea who she is. She wrote a book and she made a statement in the book. And you know that case. That case is a disaster. But I have no idea who she is. And they said, I did things. These people are corrupt and in some cases incompetent. But it’s such an honor to have somebody like you see it and see it so clearly. And I knew that… I remember that years ago you were helping Oprah out, that she was sued and it was having a big impact on her.
On Oprah
President Trump: Long time It was the only funeral we’ve ever had at Mar-a-Lago. I said, Maybe we can do a new business here. We’ll operate as a funeral parlor. But it was one of the most beautiful funerals in the ballroom behind us. And he was a great guy. And Oprah’s terrific. But what Once I announced I was running and I said, We have to have strong borders. We have to have this. We have to have that. We’ve lost contact, as the expression goes. But I remember when you were very much involved in helping Oprah, and that’s really the first thing I thought when you called about this horrible witch hunt that, in all fairness, they’ve had going against me for years.
President Trump Wanted to Testify
President Trump: I’ll tell you what, I have a lot of that are friends and this and that. I had probably 25 guys over the course of a couple of months say, Whatever you do, don’t testify, because you’ll say something that’s a little bit off, and you will be indicted for lying, for perjury. These are evil people. These are sick, evil people. “I would have thrown myself in front of your car to keep you from testifying.”
No, I wanted to so badly. And by the way, I would have loved to have testified about those things because it was so corrupt and so horrible. But he wouldn’t have allowed me to to answer the questions properly. And so I would have loved to have testified. I wanted to. I’m telling you, they had to hold me back. But every lawyer that came, they’d always start to say, by the way, I’m a friend of yours. Don’t testify. And they saw what he was doing. They can ask you about anything. They can do nothing to do with this case. All of these outside things. And it was really an unfair trial. There’s a very brilliant judge in Florida that’s holding the government accountable. It looks like she’s looking into what happened because they raided Mar-a-Lago, and they took stuff out by the satchel. I mean, they took bags and bags of stuff. And I said, what are they taking? Are they saying what they’re taking? Because they can add things. They can add the nuclear codes in there. They say, Hey, he had the nuclear codes. And this was all stuff that under the presidential records act, I’m allowed to do.
On Biden’s Exoneration Due to His Dementia</strong
President Trump: By the way, Biden was totally exonerated. Now, I’m I’m not sure I want that kind of an exoneration. They basically said he’s incompetent to sit in trial, but he could be President. Think of that. He’s not sharp enough. Got no memory, got no this, got no that. He’s incompetent. Basically, they’re saying he can’t stay in trial due to incompetence, but he can run for President. What’s going on? What are we missing here?

The despicable woke left continued its unrelenting war on American society by declaring two surprising individuals beauty pageant winners, one of whom is male.
As WKRG reported, 23-year-old Atmore resident Sara Milliken won Miss Alabama on her third try over Memorial Day weekend.
She claimed her goal was only to make the top 10 after failing to place in her previous two attempts.
“Just making it to top 10 was my goal, ya know, I could leave the weekend saying I was better than I was the year before, and it’s all about bettering yourself for me,” Milliken told WKRG.
But Milliken would have been laughed right out of the room in an actual beauty competition. WKRG-TV Digital Reporter Summer Poole posed for a picture with Milliken following her asinine victory in the pageant.
Who do you think looks more worthy of the crown?
But woke warriors were not finished destroying feminine beauty. Despite an array of gorgeous and intelligent women to choose from in the Miss Maryland USA pageant on June 1, the judges of the contest instead awarded the crown to a biological male who goes by Bailey Anne Kennedy. The 31-year-old is a military husband, an NCAA D1 Dance Team Captain, and a former NFL Cheerleader Trainee from Montgomery County.
With his win, Kennedy also became the oldest and first transgender person to win the competition.
Kennedy joined DC News Now’s Cory James Wednesday morning to brag about his bogus win. He claimed that the experience was a “whirlwind because I knew it was bigger than me. I knew that it was going to mean a lot for all the LGBTQ kids out there who might feel like they don’t belong in a box – like me growing up.”
Kennedy went on to tell James that he hopes his “victory” will “open up some doors, open up some hearts for people to see that there are many aspects of LGBT community out there and I hope I can be a positive contribution to society in making a difference like the USO program like I’m working with.”
While Milliken and Kennedy reap the rewards of their unworthy wins, one can only imagine how their competitors are feeling right now.

Lunden Roberts, the mother of Hunter Biden’s illegitimate child, has revealed that Joe Biden has never even bothered to reach out to his five-year-old granddaughter.
In an interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan, Roberts spoke out about her relationship with the Biden family and their lack of interest in their offspring.
“Have you ever heard from either President Biden or the First Lady directly?” Morgan asked.
“No. No, I have not,” Roberts answered.
When the child, named Navy Joan, was born in late 2018, Hunter denied that he was the father and eventually was forced to take a DNA which confirmed that he was. He has since refused to allow her to use the Biden family name.
Joe Biden, meanwhile, only acknowledged his granddaughter’s existence last July. “Jill and I only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy,” Biden said at the time, adding that it was a “family matter”.
Roberts went on to reveal that Hunter Biden has never met his daughter in person and has only communicated with her via online video calls.
Hunter’s relationship with his daughter has been built through Zoom. He was required to call once a month or something like that. Navy gets to pick out one of his paintings, and that’s how they would start building a relationship.
However, Hunter went above and beyond. He not only called her once a month, but once they started building a relationship, he wanted to call weekly or sometimes a couple of times a week just to talk to her. When she goes into surgery, he wants to Zoom and talk to her. He calls to check on her at different times and things like that. He has gone above what the time frame required and has done that for her, which I appreciate tremendously.
Morgan asked if there are plans for father and daughter to meet in person:
Yeah, I’m sure. Me and Hunter haven’t worked the details out with that. But, I mean like the world knows. Hunter has a lot on his plate right now. I think that that needs to be his main focus, and getting through this time and then the rest can come after. Navy is well aware. She knows that her father’s very busy right now, and he’s got a lot of things going on and she’s waited five years; she can wait a couple more months.
Roberts has an upcoming memoir, entitled Out of the Shadows, about her experiences. It will be released as the Democratic National Committee will be held in chicago.

Bridgette Crowell, a former official within the District of Columbia’s Office of Contracting and Procurement (OCP) and previously at the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), pleaded guilty on Thursday for her involvement in a scheme where she manipulated government contracts for personal gain.
The 39-year-old Laurel, Maryland resident admitted to a one-count criminal Information charging her with conspiracy to commit wire and honest services fraud. Sentencing is scheduled for September 6, 2024, according to DOJ.
Joining Crowell in her corrupt endeavors, Obinna Ogbu, 52, of Silver Spring, Maryland, also entered a guilty plea for his role in the fraudulent activities, both at WMATA and OCP. Meanwhile, Ifediora Oli, another accomplice, has pled not guilty, with his case still pending before the courts.
According to court documents, Crowell began working at OCP in 2019 as a contracting specialist after serving as a contract administrator at WMATA. It was during her time at WMATA that she first met co-conspirators Ogbu and Oli.
While at OCP, Crowell misused her official position by alerting her co-conspirators to upcoming solicitations; providing them with non-public information about the solicitations, including contract pricing; and helping their companies secure government contracts.
According to the press release:
Crowell began working at the District’s Office of Contracting and Procurement (OCP) in 2019 as a contracting specialist. Before that, she worked at WMATA as a contract administrator. Crowell first met her co-conspirators when working at WMATA.
Ogbu was a WMATA employee. Oli was an employee at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, but separately held himself out as the Principal of Highbury Global Group, Inc. (Highbury).
By 2021, Crowell understood that her co-conspirators had orchestrated a bribery scheme in which Ogbu received things of value for misusing his position at WMATA and steering WMATA-related business opportunities to Oli and Highbury.
While at OCP, Crowell agreed to steer government contracts to Highbury and another company created by Ogbu, The Nupath Company (Nupath), in exchange for things of value.
Crowell misused her official position at OCP by, among other things: alerting her co-conspirators to upcoming solicitations; providing them with non-public information about the solicitations, including information regarding contract pricing; helping Highbury and Nupath secure government contracts; and taking multiple steps to conceal her personal connections to Highbury and Nupath.
Crowell’s misconduct led to Highbury obtaining a $630,000 contract with the District to provide the District’s Department of Forensic Sciences (DFS) with COVID-19 Testing Supplies; Nupath receiving a $27,000 contract to provide the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) with certain equipment; and Nupath being awarded a nearly $850,000 contract to provide MPD with assistance carrying out pre-employment suitability background investigations for officer candidates.
For her official actions and participation in the fraudulent schemes, Crowell received things of value from her co-conspirators, including as much as $10,000 cash per month, a new car, and assistance with closing costs for a new home.
As part of his guilty plea, Ogbu admitted that his misconduct began in 2018 and ultimately resulted in Highbury and Nupath receiving roughly $2 million in funds originating from WMATA and District contracts.

Many people have been wondering if the sham New York guilty verdict would have any effect on Trump’s polling. Now the results are starting to roll in and so far it’s all bad news for Biden.
In at least two new polls, Trump is still leading Biden.
This is a clear indication that the public knows the Democrat legal crusade against Trump is purely political.
Townhall reports on new polling from Emerson:
Here’s What a New National Survey Shows About Trump’s Support Post-Conviction
A new national survey from Emerson College Polling shows support for former President Donald Trump remained the same despite a criminal conviction in the sham hush money trial.
In a two-way race, 46 percent of voters support Trump while 45 percent back President Joe Biden. Nine percent are undecided. The race is an even, 50-50 split when the undecideds were pushed to name which candidate they’re leaning toward.
When third-party candidates are included, Biden takes a bigger hit than Trump.

During a recent episode of his podcast, Joe Rogan was speaking to comedian Tony Hinchcliffe and remarked that the Democrat lawfare campaign against Trump is ‘scary’ in that so many Democrats are fine with it.
He correctly points out that Democrats are setting a precedent that they may soon regret.
He recalls how the left wanted Obama to go after Bush and Cheney for war crimes and notes that Obama – who killed an American citizen with a drone strike – could now face similar charges if someone wanted to go after him.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
Like, if you have the backing of the political party, it doesn’t matter, especially the party that’s in charge.
What’s scary is how many Democrats are willing to allow this kind of stuff to happen. A lot of them are aware of it. There was this one lady that went viral, and she was talking about it, and she was saying, “You have to understand, I’m not a Trump supporter. I don’t like Trump, but this is really dangerous for democracy. Nobody can justify this, and nobody could say this guy should be in jail for this. This doesn’t make any sense.”
And especially if you wanted to look at past presidents with the same scrutiny. There are so many instances of things that you could go after. This is one of the things Obama said when he got into office. They were talking about George Bush and Dick Cheney being charged with war crimes. And he was saying, “We’re not going to look to the past; we’re going to look towards the future. We’re not going to prosecute anybody.”
Imagine if, when Obama got into office, he decided to prosecute Dick Cheney and George Bush for crimes against humanity. Oh, my God. Do you know how crazy that would be? You know how divided the country would be then? Well, that’s the same thing kind of taking place now on a lesser scale, obviously, because it’s not a war crime you’re charging someone with, but you could. You could charge Trump with war crimes. You could find some things that he did, especially with bombings. Even what Obama did — during the administration, they dropped a drone on a US citizen. No trial, no nothing. Boom.
TONY HINCHCLIFFE: Trump didn’t even go for Obama. He didn’t go for Hillary. He could have. He could have tried them for things.
JOE ROGAN: Well, especially Hillary, especially with the whole email thing, the deleting the emails.
TONY HINCHCLIFFE: And supposedly Trump’s the crazy one. Trump’s the loose cannon.
Here’s the clip:

The crime problem in Oakland has been well documented. They recently replaced traffic lights with stop signs because people were stealing the copper wire in the lights. Parts of the city look like a post-apocalyptic waste land.
Things have gotten so bad that when the city recently tried to repair potholes, workers wouldn’t finish the job because they felt unsafe.
How is this all happening in an American city?
FOX News reports:
Oakland community left with gaping potholes after crime crisis drives away construction crew
An East Oakland community’s roads remain mottled with gaping potholes after safety concerns led a construction crew to abandon their repaving project, according to a local report.
“He essentially said that the work was suspended and he couldn’t tell me the time frame when they would return because the contractor halted all the work because they felt unsafe,” Shari Angarano, a resident of the Sobrante Park area, told the Daily Mail of her recent call with the project manager.
“They were not going to restart the project until the City of Oakland could guarantee a safe work environment for them,” she added…
Angarano spoke on camera with KRON 4 San Francisco where she said the existing pavement was ripped up last month to prepare for the repaving, but the day the crew was slated to repave the roads, they never showed up.
“There’s more and more gravel and rocks being kicked up every day, every time the bus passes by,” she told the outlet. “I did pose that question to the project manager… what happens if my tires get popped? All he could do was tell me to submit a request to the city for reimbursement.”
Watch the video report below:
A construction crew has left the streets in Oakland unpaved over crime in the city.

A gunman opened fire on the US Embassy in Lebanon on Wednesday morning and was injured before being apprehended, the Lebanese Army announced.
The US Embassy reported that the attack at the embassy’s entrance did not result in any casualties among its personnel and that Lebanese troops and embassy security responded swiftly.
According to the Lebanese Army’s statement, as cited by The New York Times, a Syrian national opened fire, and soldiers wounded the assailant, who is currently receiving treatment at a hospital.
A Lebanese security official, speaking on the condition of anonymity due to the ongoing investigation, said the army had completed a search of the area around the diplomatic mission and initial information suggested the shooter acted alone.
The embassy was also targeted in September when a gunman fired at the complex. No one was injured in that incident, and a suspect was arrested. In October, protesters clashed with security forces while attempting to reach the embassy following a deadly explosion at the al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza.
The diplomatic mission relocated from central Beirut to the suburb of Awkar, to the north, after a suicide bombing killed 63 people in 1983. US authorities attributed that attack to Hezbollah, which is currently engaged in clashes with Israel.

Instead of apologizing, the classless athletes are shamelessly attempting to play the victim card, though it’s not working, as readers will later learn in this article. CBS Sportsreported that on Wednesday a man confronted the Chicago Sky players outside of their hotel in Washington, DC, the day before their game against the Mystics.
Sky general manager Jeff Pagliocca claimed to the Chicago Sun-Times that the individual in question approached the team with a camera and was looking for Carter. The Sky’s security reportedly defused the situation and led the man away.
Pagliocca told the paper the team decided not to get the police involved.
Some Sky players, including Reese, took to X to blast the “harassment.” One complained about not even being able to get off the bus.
finding out our teams hotel to pull with a camera as we get off the bus and put it in my teammates face & HARASS her is NASTY WORK. this really is outta control and needs to STOP.

But footage suggests that they are exaggerating, if not outright lying, about their claims. A 19-second video shared by Jack McGuire from Barstool Sports shows the man politely asking Carter if she has had a chance to reach out to Clark.
Another man, presumably a Chicago Sky security staffer, gets between the man and Carter while waving his hands.
In what world does asking a simple and appropriate question constitute harassment?

It’s unknown how much, if any additional footage exist from this incident. However, given the players’ disgusting and jealous behavior toward Clark, they have not earned the benefit of the doubt.

Starting today until Sunday, voters across the European community will go to the polls to elect the MEPs that will represent each country in the European Parliament.
And come Monday, when the results are divulged, we are expected to have a rightward continental shift.
And that’s not wishful thinking by conservatives, as one may think. In fact, the leftist media is all over it – of course, from a standpoint of alerting to the ‘danger’ conservatives pose.
Populist right-wing movements, Politico reported, are surging ‘in ways that could have a loud global echo.’
“In recent days, far-right parties have been showing startling strength in polls in countries across the European Union. If this translates to major electoral gains, as now appears likely, it would deliver an embarrassing rebuke to the two most prominent leaders on the continent: French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, both struggling with lackluster poll numbers.”
The politico article rightly understands the connection between Donald Trump’s rise (and return) to power and the many different European conservative forces at play.
If the right performs well in Europe this week, as expected, it will prove that the conservative planetary movement ‘has enduring power.’
“After a tense election campaign marred by political violence — including the attempted assassination of Slovakia’s prime minister — voting in the European Parliament election kicked off on Thursday morning in the Netherlands. It will carry on across the EU’s 27 member countries until Sunday night, with final results known early on Monday.”
In France, Macron is expected to get crushed by Marine Le Pen’s National Rally party, while the German AfD Alternative for Germany party is in second place head to head with Scholz’s Social Democratic Party.
“In Italy, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party, which has its roots in the country’s fascist past, is due to increase its number of seats in the European Parliament. In Poland, the nationalist, anti-abortion Law and Justice party is looking to make a comeback after losing power last December.”
Politico has polls showing that right-wingers may improve from 72 to as much as 184 seats.
“While Europe’s right-wing parties are unlikely to unite as a single block, their surge in support — and their normalization as political forces — will increase pressure on European leaders to crack down on migration to the bloc, water down plans to decarbonizes the economy and possibly dial back the EU’s support for Ukraine.”
The downtrending pro-EU mainstream parties are still expected to maintain a slim majority in the European Parliament. But will they?

On Monday, the Joe Biden and his campaign page, Biden-Harris HQ, published an X post falsely claiming that “Trump did not cap insulin costs, Biden did for seniors through the Inflation Reduction Act.” Despite Biden-Harris HQ claiming that Trump doing it was a “blatant lie”, they, in fact, were the blatant liars. John Roberts of FOX News addressed the false Biden campaign claim the following night.

In fact, Joe Biden “froze” the Trump executive order that capped the price of insulin at $35 just two days into office on January 23, 2021. Numerous fact-checkers twisted around words about whether he cancelled it or froze it, insisting it was a 60-day freeze of the Trump executive order.
Strike 1.
Earlier this week, Biden “shut down” the border. By shut down, he meant allowing more than 2500 illegals to cross through ports of entry each day, or 900,000 each year (not including the 800-1000 estimated daily to cross between ports of entry), and gave incredible discretion to the now-impeached DHS Secretary Mayorkas as to when it can remain open once the quota has been surpassed.
But in January 2024, the White House published a statement on “Bipartisan Senate Border Security Negotiations” in which he said, “It would give me…a new emergency authority to shut down the border when it becomes overwhelmed. And if given that authority, I would use it the day I signed the bill into law.”
Biden, in fact, did not need Congress to pass a bill, despite falsely accusing President Trump and the House majority of stonewalling it for “political reasons.” Speaker Mike Johnson held out on passing the $118 billion “border security” spending bill that included $60.1 billion for Ukraine, $14.1 billion for Israel, and $20.2 billion for the “border” but not so much for the “security.”
Strike 2.
Now the campaign page, apparently run by a serial liar, has done it again. This time, they attacked Representative Byron Donalds (R-FL) over a sit-down discussion he gave earlier this week.
The shameless campaign account posted, “Trump VP contender Byron Donalds claims life was better for Black Americans “during Jim Crow.”
The selectively-edited clip shows Donalds saying “You see, during Jim Crow, the black family was together. During Jim Crow, more black people were not just conservative, black people have always been conservative-minded, but more black people voted conservatively.” I’m sure Donalds, however, would appreciate the admission by the Biden-Harris HQ team that black families being together and voting conservative was a better life for black Americans. Their words, not his.
Donalds, a firebrand conservative and possible VP consideration, fired back on X stating, “1. You lied. I never said better. 2. Don’t clip my words. Play the whole thing. Let me help you.”

Strike 3. You’re Out!
Donalds joined CNN’s Abby Phillip to respond to the false assertion. Phillip said that “many Democrats” incorrectly jumped on Donalds for saying black families were “better off” but acknowledged that he never actually said those words. When asked “what did you mean by black families were more together during Jim Crow?”
Donalds responded,
“Frankly, what this is about the empirical fact that before the Great Society, before Lindon Johnson’s policies, there was more black families united. The marriage rate in black America was significantly higher before the Great Society, the period of time that coincides with that obviously is the Jim Crow era. And then after the Great Society, the marriage rate in the black community plummeted significantly. The Great Society is a part of that reason, not completely, but definitely a part of that. And what you’re seeing right now is a reformation of black families in America. That’s a good thing not only for the black community and black families, but also a good thing for the country.”
LBJ’s Great Society was destructive to Black families in America.
Joe Biden’s ’94 Crime Bill & the War on Drugs were also destructive to Black families.

Eric Swalwell (D-CA) was standing in the on-deck circle and took a swing at the same sinker Biden struck out on. He doubled down with a post stating, “Sorry, Byron Donalds. Even this right-leaning platform rejects your bat-shit crazy claim that black families were better off in the 1800s.”
I’m sure Donalds is thankful for the save from the white virtue-signaling adulterer.

Two relatively minor quakes hit Southern California in Newport Beach Thursday evening.
The first quake, magnitude 3.6, hit 1 mile ENE of Newport Beach at 4:52 pm local time. A second quake, magnitude 3.4, hit 2 miles ENE of Newport Beach at 5:05 pm local time.
Shaking was felt in Orange County, parts of the Inland Empire and Los Angeles County.
Good afternoon Southern CA. Did you feel the magnitude 3.6 quake about 1 mile northeast of Newport Beach at 4:52 pm? The #ShakeAlert system was activated. See: https://t.co/F7JgX4qbAv @Cal_OES @CAGeoSurvey pic.twitter.com/EIs5b003kB

A magnitude 2.6 earthquake struck Newport Beach on Wednesday afternoon.
Seven total quakes have rattled Southern California in the last 6 days.
While these quakes are considered small by California standards, scientists say they may be foreshocks to a major quake on the Newport-Inglewood fault.
The Los Angeles Times reported:
A magnitude 2.6 earthquake struck Newport Beach on Wednesday afternoon, resulting in weak shaking in Orange County.
The epicenter of the quake, just southeast of Costa Mesa, was underneath Mariners Park. Weak shaking was felt in Irvine, Santa Ana, Huntington Beach, Garden Grove, Tustin, and Fountain Valley, according to people who reported the shaking to the U.S. Geological Survey’s Did You Feel It? website.
The earthquake struck at 1:46 p.m. and occurred near mapped traces of the Newport-Inglewood/Rose Canyon fault zone. In Santa Ana, one person felt the earthquake as starting with the slowest of rumbles, then a quick jolt.
The Newport-Inglewood fault has long been considered one of Southern California’s top seismic danger zones because it runs under some of the region’s most densely populated areas, from the Westside of Los Angeles to the Orange County coast.
The last major quake on that fault occurred in 1933 — the magnitude 6.4 Long Beach earthquake. That temblor — the deadliest in modern Southern California history — resulted in “very strong” shaking, or level 7 on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale, in Long Beach, Huntington Beach and Compton.
The 1933 quake left nearly 120 dead and caused $40 million in property damage.
Scientists have said that recent observations suggest earthquakes as large as magnitudes 6.8 to 7.5 have struck the Newport-Inglewood/Rose Canyon fault system, which stretches from the border of Beverly Hills and Los Angeles through Long Beach and the Orange County coast to downtown San Diego.
There are no reports of damage or injuries.

Hunter Biden smoked ping-pong ball-sized crack rocks according to Hallie Biden.
Hallie Biden, Hunter Biden’s dead brother’s wife-turned-girlfriend, testified at Hunter’s criminal federal gun trial on Thursday.
In September Hunter Biden was indicted on federal gun charges. He was indicted in a Delaware court on three counts related to his possession of a firearm while using drugs.
According to text messages sent to Hallie Biden, Hunter Biden set up a drug deal with “Mookie” one day after he illegally purchased his gun on October 12, 2018.
One day after purchasing his gun on Oct. 12, 2018, Hunter Biden sets up a drug deal with "Mookie" at the 7/11 on Greenhill and Lancaster.

A couple days later he went on a crack-smoking bender and passed out in his car.
The Gateway Pundit reported back in October 2020 that Hallie Biden tossed Hunter’s gun in the trash in a Delaware grocery store parking lot. A man who routinely rummages through trash cans discovered Hunter Biden’s gun and handed it over to law enforcement.
Prosecutors on Tuesday told the court that Hunter Biden bought the firearm while he was smoking crack every 15 minutes.
On Thursday Hallie Biden told the court that Hunter smoked ping-pong ball-sized crack rocks.
NBC News reported:
Hallie Biden said she discovered some crack and had to “google it” because, she said, “I didn’t know what it was.”
When she confronted Hunter about the drugs, he admitted he was using.
Hunter would smoke crack “occasionally” in Hallie Biden’s presence, she testified, saying that in between crack use, he continued to work and see family.
She also witnessed Hunter smoke crack in his D.C. apartment and in a house they rented in Annapolis, Maryland, from the fall of 2017 through July 2018. At times, Hallie Biden would accompany Hunter Biden to drug deals, she said.
Hunter Biden’s demeanor would change when he smoked crack, she said. He would become “agitated, high strung,” she said, “but other times functioning as well.”
The amount of crack Hunter possessed at any given time ranged from a piece smaller than a marble to multiple rocks the size of ping pong balls, she said.
Hunter Biden previously disclosed that he smoked parmesan cheese, mistaking it for crack.
“I spent more time on my hands and knees picking through rugs, smoking anything that remotely resembled crack cocaine — I probably smoked more parmesan cheese than anyone that you know, Tracy,” Hunter said.
“I went one time for 13 days without sleeping, and smoking crack and drinking vodka throughout that entire time,” he said.
This is what Joe Biden meant when he said he will ‘restore decency to the White House.’

Mike Rowe, the former host of the popular TV show “Dirty Jobs,” has a way of telling it like it is.
He recently addressed a comment about his interview with former collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines.
He was asked by ‘Carol,’ “Is it my imagination, or have you and your podcast become more political? I enjoyed the interview with @Riley_Gaines_but was really surprised to see you ‘go there’ and speak so candidly about such a politically charged topic.”
He has consistently criticized America’s dependence on higher education as the only path to success, as well as the rabid anti-Israel protests occurring on college campuses.
He blasted the government for treating the “unvaccinated like the enemy” and shared concerns over the woke elements permeating the military.
Rowe’s response to Carol is brilliant.
Hi Carol.
It’s your imagination.Your question reminds of a common refrain I hear nowadays from friends of mine on both sides of the aisle. “I didn’t leave my party, my party left me!” I can sympathize. In this case, I would tell you that I haven’t become any more political than I’ve ever been – but everything around me certainly has. Or maybe, everything has just become more controversial, and therefore everything feels more political?
Either way, the facts surrounding Riley’s ordeal are not in dispute. She and her teammates were told by the NCAA to either compete with a man or quit the sport they loved. They were told to either share a locker room with a man or seek professional psychiatric help. They were also told that failing to accept the swimmer formerly known as Will Thomas as a woman, might result in his suicide, and that his blood would be on their hands.
For daring to question the fairness of these decisions, Riley Gaines was branded a bigot and a transphobe. She was attacked by protestors at San Francisco State and held against her will for several hours. Her captors were not punished. In fact, they were congratulated by the administrators at the college.
It’s also important to know that Riley Gaines never suggested to me that adults be denied the right to identify as a member of the opposite sex or take whatever steps they wish to take in order to facilitate a physical transition. We both support that right, even if we don’t support the idea that taxpayers should pay for it, or that minors should be allowed to proceed with irreversible surgeries without their parent’sconsent. But mostly, we both believe that it’s fundamentally unfair to allow men to compete against women, and deeply troubling that so many otherwise sensible Americans stood by and said nothing, as the NCAA made a mockery of Title IX, and ran roughshod over decades of hard-fought women’s rights.
As I said to her on the podcast, Riley Gaines reminds me of the kid in The Emperor’s New Clothes – the only one in the crowd to point out the obvious fact that the man parading before them was stark naked, while the townspeople pretended, he wasn’t. Just like the townspeople in America who pretended that Lea Thomas was a woman, simply because he changed his name and claimed to be one. Even when he leapt from a ranking of #462 as “Will,” to #1 as “Lea,” the townspeople just couldn’t see the difference between him, and the women he so completely and totally dominated. Even when the townspeople saw with their own eyes, a telltale bulge in the women’s bathing suit he wore on the podium, they still applauded the emperor’s new clothes, and congratulated him for his great triumph.
Those townspeople will not be remembered for their politics, Carol. They’ll be remembered for their cowardice. Just as Riley Gaines will be remembered for her courage.

A Southwest flight was forced to make an emergency landing on Monday after a tire blew out.
Passengers were ‘screaming and crying’ as the Boeing 737-700 made an emergency landing at Denver International Airport on Monday.
KDVR reported:
A Southwest flight had to make an emergency landing at Denver International Airport after one of the tires failed during takeoff.
The airline sent a statement to FOX31 saying Southwest Flight 225 had to return to Denver after the pilot declared an emergency on Monday. According to FlightAware, the aircraft was a Boeing 737-700 headed for Phoenix Sky Harbor International.
FlightAware shows the plane took off from DIA at 6:31 p.m. on Monday, however, shortly after, Southwest said one of the tires failed. The plane landed back at DIA at 7:12 p.m.
Southwest said the flight landed “without incident and taxied off the runway.”
“When the flight attendants said we were going to have an emergency landing, we started to panic a little bit. People were definitely crying and screaming and trying to console one another,” passenger Julianna Donadio told 9News.
“We knew we blew a tire, but we didn’t know what the landing gear situation was,” she said. “They started preparing us for crash position, so having our head between our knees, and they were informing the emergency exit line how to open the doors and operate potentially the slides.”

In 2023, retail stores lost $121.6 billion due to shoplifting, but some stores are fighting back.
USA Today reported that TJX, the parent company of TJ Maxx, Marshall, and HomeGoods, has announced it will install body cameras on some of its associates to prevent thefts.
However, not every associate will wear police-like body cameras but only those trained in loss prevention will.
In a statement, TJX finance chief John Klinger said, “It’s almost like a de-escalation, where people are less likely to do something when they’re being videotaped.”

Per USA Today:
TJX, the parent company of T.J. Maxx, HomeGoods and Marshalls, announced it is bringing out another watchdog to crack down on theft.
The owner of the retail stores said that it will be adding body cameras to be worn by its employees in order to deter thieves.
A TJX spokesperson said in a statement to USA TODAY that the body cameras have already been used in various stores “over the past year”.
The TJX spokesperson explained that not every associate will be eligible to wear a body camera within its stores. However, their loss prevention associates who are trained to use the cameras will be the ones wearing them while in the store.
With shoplifting statistics skyrocketing in the United States, many other retailers want to follow TJX’s lead.
The National Retail Federation reported that 35% of retailers are researching the idea of body cameras on associates.

While the residents of Wethersfield, Connecticut, grapple with the tragedy of losing Trooper First Class Aaron Pelletier, who was killed in the line of duty, they are also facing obscene disrespect by town leaders.
Democrat Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont directed that state flags be flown at half-mast to honor Pelletier. Wethersfield’s Town Council then weighed whether to also fly the Thin Blue Line flag.
During the discussion, Democratic Councilmember Emily Zambrello said, “That flag was either created or at least became prevalent in direct response to the Black Lives Matter protests. It’s viewed as antagonistic even if you don’t see it that way and I don’t think that’s a good flag to fly, especially not without further discussion.”
Republican Councilmember Brianna Timbro hit back and reminded Zambrello that the Thin Blue Line flag existed long before BLM protests.
The measure failed 5-3 with one abstention.
The council, however, is not opposed to flying flags that not everyone agrees with. The group already voted to fly a Pride Flag in commemoration of Pride Month.
In making an announcement to those gathered for an event to raise the Pride flag, they were told, “We have great respect for our law enforcement community and I realize the dangerous job they do every day. Out of respect for the tragic death of State Trooper First Class Aaron Pelletier, we won’t be raising the Pride flag today; it is already up on the pole flying at half-staff in honor of his passing.”
In Wethersfield, CT the @CTDems own Emily Zambrello declares that the Thin Blue Line flag will not fly today in honor of Trooper First Class Aaron Pelletier who died in the line of duty last week.

The decision did not go over well and people shared their disgust on the town’s Facebook page.
“They approve a sex flag but deny a police flag honoring a murdered Trooper. Shameful and Disgusting.”
“All of those on the town council who voted no to raise the thin blue line flag to show support for the CSP Trooper that was killed should be ashamed. I’m definitely going to remember this when it comes time to vote. Shameful cowards you are. Weak politicians are exactly why the pos who killed him were free to do so in the first place. What an absolute disgrace of a town.”
‘What disgusting behavior! The people who voted to not fly the blue line flag are hopefully voted out of office. When it comes time to vote, remember this.”
Pelletier died last week while performing a traffic stop on a state highway when a vehicle collided with Pelletier, his squad car, and the vehicle he had pulled over. He sustained fatal injuries from the crash.
He is survived by his wife and two young children.
The driver, who initially fled from the scene, was arrested.
According to the Connecticut State Police, Alex Oyola-Sanchez, age 44, of Hartford, was charged with manslaughter/motor vehicle, among other charges, and is being held on a $5 million bond.

A 102-year-old World War II veteran passed away after a medical emergency en route to D-Day celebrations in Normandy.
Robert Persichitti, of Fairport, New York, passed away at a hospital in Germany last Friday as he was traveling to France for the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
According to reports, Persichitti was at peace and listening to his favorite singer, Frank Sinatra, as he passed away.
The New York Post reported:
A 102-year-old American World War II veteran who witnessed the raising of the US flag at Iwo Jima died while he was en route to France to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings.
Robert Persichitti, of Fairport, NY, suffered a medical emergency and died in a hospital in Germany last Friday, a veterans organization said.
The Navy vet, who had flown overseas with a group tied to the National World War II Museum, was on a ship sailing down the coast to Normandy ahead of Thursday’s D-Day events when he suddenly fell ill and had to be airlifted to the hospital.
In his final moments, Persichitti had listened to his favorite singer, Frank Sinatra, his friend and travel companion Al DeCarlo told 13WHAM.
“The doctor was with him. He was not alone, he was at peace and he was comfortable,” DeCarlo said. “She put his favorite singer, Frank Sinatra, on her phone and he peacefully left us.”
Additionally, Canadian WWII veteran Bill Cameron, who was also excited to be heading to Normandy, tragically died before making it there.

A new, highly contagious sexually transmitted infection that has been spreading throughout Europe and elsewhere has now arrived on U.S. soil.
As NBC News reported, a case report published Wednesday in JAMA Dermatology revealed that a man in his 30s from New York City contracted a nasty skin infection after weeks of travel. During his time away from home, he engaged in sexual intercourse with multiple men during trips to England, Greece, and California.
When he got back, he developed a rash on his genitals, buttocks, and limbs.
Genetic testing on skin lesions identified the culprit as a fungal infection known as Trichophyton mentagrophytes type VII (TMVII), a sexually transmitted form of ringworm. According to the CDC, TMVII VII is a difficult-to-treat fungus that causes skin disease in animals and humans and is acquired through sexual contact.
The report’s lead author, Dr. Jeff Caplan, wrote the rash may look more like an eczema flare than a ringworm infection, which usually forms in a circular pattern on the skin. This can potentially delay diagnosis in certain individuals.
Senior author Dr. John Zampella also noted that patients are often hesitant to discuss genital problems, raising the possibility of more TMVII infections than reported.
“Since patients are often reluctant to discuss genital problems, physicians need to directly ask about rashes around the groin and buttocks, especially for those who are sexually active, have recently traveled abroad, and report itchy areas elsewhere on the body,” he said.
Zampella said that infections caused by TMVII appear to respond to antifungal therapies such as terbinafine (also known as Lamisil), but can take months to clear up.
Caplan says the infection is not fatal but can lead to permanent scarring. Nonetheless, he warned that healthcare providers must be aware of the new infection.
“Healthcare providers should be aware that Trichophyton mentagrophytes type VII is the latest in a group of severe skin infections to have now reached the United States,” Caplan said.
TMVII has been on the rise in Europe with 13 cases in France last year. In these cases, almost all involved men having sex with men.
Cases of TMVII have also been reported in other areas of the globe, including Southeast Asia. These infections have also predominately involved men engaging in same-sex intercourse.

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs has come under fire once more over the “donations” to a dark money group for her inaugural events last year after it was reported that a state contractor’s six-figure donation led to millions in state funds.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Katie Hobbs’ ethics was called into question by GOP State Legislators after she charged donors as much As $250,000 using a 501(c)(4) nonprofit group for inaugural events.
The nonprofit she used was also headquartered at the same address as Coppersmith Brockelman PLC. This is the same Democrat law firm that represented Defendant Katie Hobbs in Kari Lake’s lawsuit to overturn the rigged 2022 midterm.
The donors to Katie Hobbs' inauguration included Sunshine Residential Homes and its affiliates, who donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to later receive a previously denied rate increase for their youth group home services.
Even the far-left Arizona Republic is questioning Katie Hobbs and suggesting an investigation is in order.
Via Arizona State Senator Jake Hoffman on X:
BREAKING: Pay-To-Play Scandal Involving AZ's Democrat Governor Unfolding
State contractor donated $400,000 to Gov. Katie Hobbs and AZ Democrats, and got millions more in state money
DCS over the course of the past year approved what amounts to a nearly 60% increase in the rate that Sunshine Residential Homes Inc. charges to care for a child for a day, meaning potentially millions of dollars more going to the company at taxpayers' expense.
No other standard group home provider — there are dozens — was approved for any rate increase during Hobbs’ tenure.
After initial rejection, Sunshine's rate increase comes after political donation. Sunshine Residential Homes in December 2022 sought a 20% rate increase, to $179 per day. DCS denied it on Feb. 6, 2023, according to records provided by the department.
Three days later, Sunshine donated $100,000 to a dark-money fund Hobbs’ campaign created...
Only recently did the company begin contributing to political campaigns in Arizona.
Two six-figure donations from Sunshine to the Arizona Democratic Party were reported when Hobbs was running for governor, totaling $200,000 in September and October 2022.
[Sunshine's CEO] and his wife personally donated nearly the maximum amount, $5,000 each, to Hobbs’ campaign.
That’s not all the company would kick in. Another $200,000 was donated after Hobbs’ election, with half of that going directly to Hobbs’ inauguration fund through her dark money group.
[Sunshine's Director of Programs] worked for DCS for a decade before joining Sunshine in 2022, according to his resume. Saifi donated $5,000 to Hobbs’ gubernatorial campaign the same day his boss did, state records show. -------

The city of Cambridge, Massachusetts, is preparing to replace police officers with unarmed social workers for some 911 calls. The city’s new Community Assistance Response and Engagement (CARE) team is expected to be operational as soon as July.
The CARE Team, which began training last September and conducting outreach since December, will be dispatched to non-violent incidents and mental health crises. Disturbingly, unlike similar programs in other cities, the CARE Team will not be accompanied by police officers, according to Boston 25 News.
While Liz Speakman, the team’s director, assures that they can “radio for assistance immediately and get back up right away” if safety concerns arise, this raises serious questions about the potential risks involved in this approach. Will social workers without any law enforcement training be equipped to handle unpredictable situations that could escalate rapidly?
Speakman claims that their team has learned from studying alternative response programs in Durham, NC. However, it remains unclear how effective these lessons will be in practice. Furthermore, the five members of the CARE Team, while experienced social workers and first responders, lack law enforcement backgrounds.
Chris Sullivan, President of the Cambridge Police Patrol Officers Association, issued the following statement to Boston 25 News:
The Cambridge Police Patrol Officers Association believes the Community Assistance Response and Engagement team has a place in Cambridge as a supplement to the city’s already excellent emergency services. However, the CARE team must first be prepared with proper training and safety protocols, and our negotiations with the City should be settled in good faith.
Every year, Cambridge Police Department officers deliver on-the-scene crisis intervention and emergency counseling to more than 1,000 people in mental health crisis; administer well over 50 life-saving doses of NARCAN to persons in drug-induced cardiac arrest; provide compassionate assistance and first-responder care to hundreds of citizens experiencing medical emergencies; and perform many other duties that demonstrate the care, compassion and dedication with which CPPOA members approach their job every day.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that ver a dozen law enforcement departments in Colorado were planning to dispatch drones instead of officers to respond to specific 911 calls.
The Denver Police Department and several other law enforcement agencies in Colorado plan to dispatch drones instead of officers in situations where drones can provide information about the incident before officers are called to the scene.
The Denver Post reported that in some cases, the drone would be the only response to some incidents if an operator can determine from the air that officers don’t need to respond.
Sgt. Jeremiah Gates, who is in charge of the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s office, stated, “This really is the future of law enforcement at some point, whether we like it or not.”

By Wayne Allyn Root
I don’t mean to say I told you so. But for over 3 years I’ve been screaming from the highest mountains that what we are seeing and experiencing is a communist takeover of the USA.
Last week it was President Trump being falsely persecuted and convicted. Today it’s Steve Bannon being sent to prison. Who’s next to be persecuted by this administration?
The answer is anyone who can help the Democrats stay in power.
I’ve argued and warned since the day of Biden’s election that this would be Obama’s third term. Biden is a brain-dead zombie puppet with diapers, who belongs in a nursing home. All along, Obama has been the real President, giving the orders, and coordinating this communist takeover of the USA.
The rigged 2020 election? This had Obama’s fingerprints all over it.
Obama started the election rigging in 2012 by using the IRS to go after GOP donors, conservative PACs and critics of his administration.
By 2020 Obama perfected the election rigging by taking advantage of the Covid pandemic. He used changes in election laws, mail-in ballots, ballot harvesting, ballot drop boxes and no Voter ID to steal the election. Once Obama had control of the government, that gave him control of the DOJ and FBI, giving him free rein to persecute Trump and Trump’s allies. The latest victim is Steve Bannon. He won’t be the last.
All roads lead to Obama. Let me count the ways Obama’s fingerprints are all over this communist takeover…
The open borders invasion of America has Obama’s fingerprints all over it.
By stealing the 2020 election, that gave Obama control over the border. He then used Cloward-Piven (the communist plan we both learned at Columbia University) to flood the nation with millions of illegal alien invaders, shower them with trillions of dollars in welfare, and blow up the national debt.
This also changed the demographics of America. Waving in millions of new foreigners is “the Great Replacement Theory.” This is how Obama insures no Republican will ever be elected president again.
The persecution of Trump and his allies? That has Obama’s fingerprints all over it.
Obama ordered the spying of Trump and framed Trump with false charges of “Russian Collusion.” Now Obama is the one coordinating the indictments and the rigged trials against Trump. Throw in Peter Navarro, Rudy Guliani, Steve Bannon, Alex Jones- one by one Obama and his communist cabal are putting leading conservatives in prison, or taking away their life savings.
The anarchy and vile protests against Israel and the Jewish people have Obama’s fingerprints all over it.
Look at the base of these protests, Columbia University. Obama was my college classmate at Columbia University, Class of ’83.
The mass censorship and silencing of conservatives on social media has Obama’s fingerprints all over it.
Obama has dirty ex-FBI and ex-CIA operatives filling all the important roles at social media companies. Even a company like X owned by conservative hero Elon Musk censors and shadow bans every word I say. How can this be? Because Elon owns X, but he doesn’t control it. The same communist traitors are running the show as before Elon took over.
The disastrous Green New Deal has Obama’s fingerprints all over it.
Green Energy is a fraud. It leads to exploding electric and gas bills, in order to wipe out the great American middle class. Energy rates are now the highest in history. This pattern started under Obama. It was so bad back then, that I wrote the nationwide #1 bestseller, “The Ultimate Obama Survival Guide.” Today we are experiencing Obama on steroids.
Don’t forget Democrats comparing Trump to Hitler.
It’s all the strategy of Saul Alinsky- who was Obama’s mentor. Obama bases his whole agenda on Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals.” Alinsky advised to isolate, ostracize, demonize and destroy your political enemy. Any lie, fraud, or slander is acceptable- because Alinsky said, “the ends justify the means.”
The Covid vaccine mandates and vaccine passports had Obama’s fingerprints all over them.
The Covid vaccine continues to injure and kill thousands of Americans daily- including so many of my friends and associates. Trump supported the vaccine in order to save the US economy, but he never mandated it, and he never will.
But of course, this communist takeover coordinated by Obama forcedthis experimental, emergency-use-only vaccine upon every working man and woman in America. Which violated the Nuremberg Code. So, who’s the real Hitler?
But in the end, the centerpiece of communism is jailing your political opponents.
Trump is beating Biden by a landslide. It’s all but over. Democrats know that. So, first they rigged the NY trial to falsely convict Trump. Now their brainwashed, communist judge with “Trump Derangement Syndrome” can order Trump to prison. Or demand he stay under house arrest at Maralago- thereby preventing Trump’s highly effective campaign rallies.
These same communist thugs are actually accelerating the raids on homes of J6 protestors over three years later. Once in prison, they are tortured with cruel and unusual punishment- including solitary confinement. It’s all about intimidation. That’s what communist thugs do.
Now these same communists have put Steve Bannon in prison.
Steve was just ordered to report to prison on July 1st. He will be in a jail cell until November. Perfect timing to silence the leader of MAGA for the entire presidential campaign.
This is not normal. These are not your father’s Democrats. These are evil communist traitors. And this is a communist color revolution.
And the person absolutely, positively coordinating this communist takeover of America is Barack Hussein Obama.

President Trump will deliver remarks in Arizona tonight, marking his first public rally since the sham verdict in the New York “hush money” Show Trial.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the jury returned a verdict in Alvin Bragg’s lawfare ‘hush money’ trial last Thursday: Guilty on all 34 counts! The sentencing was set for July 11.
“I’m a political prisoner!” Trump said after the verdict in his rigged trial with far-left jurors, a far-left conflicted Judge, and politically motivated prosecutors was announced.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg indicted Trump in April 2023 on 34 felony counts related to ‘hush payments’ he made to Stormy Daniels.
Trump was accused of paying porn star Stormy Daniels, AKA Stephanie Clifford, ‘hush payments’ through his then-attorney Michael Cohen in a scheme to silence her and stop the story about their alleged affair from being published in the National Enquirer.
The jury deliberations began on Wednesday after Judge Merchan, whose daughter has received MILLIONS of dollars consulting the Democrats who want to take down Trump, instructed them to choose among the three predicate crimes Trump supposedly committed. Judge Merchan told jurors they did not have to agree on a crime. This is unheard of in US history. The jury only had to agree that something bad happened, but not on what that something is. This, of course, is completely unconstitutional.
Trump delivered remarks at the Trump Tower Atrium to speak out on his political persecution by radical left Biden Thugs in the Manhattan Court House. on Friday last week:
This rally also comes as Joe Biden announced an executive order, introducing new asylum ‘restrictions' that will still allow at least 1.8 million illegals to enter the US every year.
Biden took 94 executive actions in his first 100 days in office to destroy the border.
More than 15 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age males – have already invaded the US on Biden’s watch. This invasion of millions per year will continue until Joe Biden finally leaves office next year.
Per OANN correspondent Daniel Baldwin, "President Trump will rip Biden's open border executive order to shreds in Arizona tonight."
SNEAK PEAK: President Trump will rip Biden's open border executive order to shreds in Arizona tonight:
"Biden’s order is not a border security plan—it is a concession to the fact that he has lost control of our border. He is conceding death and defeat at the border."

Joe and Jill Biden arrived in Normandy on Thursday to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
Biden is spending 5 days in France, attending D-Day ceremonies in Normandy and visiting with French President Emmanuel Macron.
As usual, Joe Biden was a humiliation on the world stage.
He sat down in an invisible chair, boasted about killing Russians, fell asleep and was whisked away from the celebrations by Nurse Jill.

In a revealing monologue, Steve Bannon disclosed that he had proposed an audacious plan for President Trump’s first official act after his 2017 inauguration – immediately relocating the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. The former White House chief strategist said his suggestion was to skip the traditional inauguration luncheon and have Trump formally announce the historic embassy move that same day before addressing a joint session of Congress.
“My recommendation, in the transition, was that we actually move the embassy to Jerusalem right after the inauguration. Skip the lunch… do the parade, go to the White House, all the folks are there, and we actually move [the embassy], on the historic day of his inauguration, to Jerusalem right then,” Bannon stated on his War Room Battleground, late afternoon show.
“And then President Trump would go back to the Capital for a joint session of Congress and we’d then lay out our 100 day plan,” he added.
Bannon claims the bold plan was nixed due to pushback from the State Department, who he says warned of hyperbolic scenarios like “3,000 U.S. embassies” being seized and “9,000 American hostages taken” if the move happened so quickly.
“All of it was a lie, all of it was spin…The permanent State Department hates Israel, full on,” Bannon alleged.
The dramatic story was corroborated by former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, who was a guest on Bannon’s show.
“I remember your whiteboard – right at the top of your list was moving the embassy on day one. What you said brought back a really present memory – I remember that well,” Friedman confirmed.
It wasn’t until over a year later in May 2018 that the embassy relocation – a longstanding priority for Israel’s government – was finally carried out by the Trump administration after repeated delays by previous presidents. The move was celebrated as historic recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
Bannon’s revelations came during a special War Room episode focused on the Jewish vote heading into the 2024 presidential election. The program featured discussions on whether secular and liberal Jewish Americans may shift towards supporting Trump’s re-election due to President Biden’s policies towards Israel, which Bannon believes have been disastrous.
Left-wing critics have accused Bannon of antisemitism in the past, but he has emerged as a fierce defender of Israel during the recent conflict with Hamas militants in Gaza.
On the show, Bannon vehemently rejected the Biden administration’s support for a two-state solution, calling it catastrophic for Israel’s security. He has frequently argued that Israel is fighting not just for its own survival, but for the preservation of Western civilization and Judeo-Christian values against radical Islam. According to Bannon, Israel’s military campaigns are as much for the security of the West as they are for its own people.
Knesset member Ohad Tal, another guest, made a direct appeal to American Jews to vote for President Trump, while Ambassador Friedman called on the Biden Administration to “Let Israel be great again” and win the war against Hamas.
The special episode of Bannon’s show was co-hosted by Rabbi Pesach Wolicki, host of Eyes on Israel, a weekly 1 hour show covering Israel related issues on the Real America’s Voice network, the same network Bannon is on daily.

There are increasing indications that many Jewish voters could swing towards the Republican Party and Donald Trump in the 2024 election. A poll of New York voters in February found that 53% of Jewish respondents intended to vote for Trump, a striking shift from typical Jewish voting patterns that have leaned heavily Democratic in recent decades.
Another data point suggesting a potential Jewish rightward drift: an article in The Bulwark reported that major Jewish donors appear to be redirecting contributions toward the GOP, seemingly in response to Biden administration policies viewed as problematic on the Israel-Hamas conflict.
With Jewish voters being a crucially important demographic in swing states like Florida and Pennsylvania, even a modest Jewish shift to the GOP could profoundly impact the 2024 election outcome.

Crooked Hillary Clinton came out of hiding on Thursday to take a nasty shot at President Trump on the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
As Gateway Pundit readers know, D-Day was one of the great turning points in World War II and the start of the liberation of Europe from the control of Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany’s control On June 6, 1944, roughly 156,000 American, British, and Canadian forces stormed five beaches along a 50-mile stretch of the ferociously defended coast of France’s Normandy region.
The invasion was the largest amphibious assault in military history. At least 4,400 soldiers and Marines perished during the operation.
Instead of using this occasion to honor some of the bravest war heroes ever to live, Hillary decided to use this occasion to dunk Trump by comparing him to Hitler, arguably the most evil man to ever exist.
“Eighty years ago today, thousands of brave Americans fought to protect democracy on the shores of Normandy,” Crooked Hillary wrote. “This November, all we have to do is vote.”
Eighty years ago today, thousands of brave Americans fought to protect democracy on the shores of Normandy.

Hillary has barred users from commenting on her social media posts after getting constantly roasted on X.
The Trump campaign responded to the vile D-Day message with fire after being asked for comment from Fox News.
“Hillary Clinton is a stone-cold loser who presided over the horrific Benghazi debacle that led to the death of Americans,” Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said to Fox News. “Nobody takes Hillary seriously because it’s clear she is beclowning herself in order to stay relevant after President Trump crushed her in 2016.”
As Fox News notes, this is not the first time Hillary has compared Trump to Nazi Germany’s leader. Back in May, she referred to him as the “Grifter Hitler” while sharing a skewed Associated Press article. The article in question was regarding a video posted to Trump’s Truth Social account that mentioned a “unified Reich” among hypothetical headlines if he won in November.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico is alive – and kicking.
About twenty days ago, a deranged leftist and pro-Ukrainian man shot him as he approached citizens gathered at barricades and reached out to shake hands with them.
The man, ‘poet’ Juraj Cintula, stepped forward, extended his arm and fired five rounds – four shots hit the PM – before being tackled and arrested.
At first, authorities said his shooter acted alone, but later said they were searching for a ‘third party’.
In a critical state, Fico underwent a five-hour surgery, followed by another two-hour surgery two days later.
But now, the recovering populist leader said without any ambiguity that he believes to have been targeted for having a Ukraine position contrary to the European mainstream.
The video recording Fico posted online was his first appearance since the assassination attempt.
It comes a mere days ahead of Slovakia’s Saturday voting in the European Parliament elections.
Associated Press reported:
“Seemingly in good shape as he spoke, Fico pledged to be back at work in about a month and said he felt “no hatred” towards his attacker and planned no legal action against him. ‘I forgive him’, he said during the 14-minute speech,
Still, he slammed the opposition and others, saying: ‘After all, it’s evident that he only was a messenger of evil and political hatred’.”
Fico says that his very differing views on Russia’s war on Ukraine made him a target.
Fico stopped military aid for Ukraine, opposes EU sanctions on Russia, and wants to block Ukraine from joining NATO.
“’It’s cruel to state this, but the right to have a different opinion has ceased to exist in the European Union’, he said, blaming unspecified Western countries for the alleged situation.”
Fico was released from hospital last week, and taken to his home in Bratislava, where he is recuperating.
“The country’s Specialized Criminal Court in the town of Pezinok ordered the suspect, who is charged with attempted murder, to remain behind bars. […] Government officials originally said they believed it was a politically motivated attack committed by a ‘lone wolf’, but later announced that a ‘third party’ might have been involved in ‘acting for the benefit of the perpetrator’.
Fico said Wednesday he ‘had no reason to believe’ that it was an attack by a lone deranged person.”
Fico’s leftist-populist Smer (Direction) party is in a close race to win the European Parliament election, against opposition Progressive Slovakia, a pro-Western liberal party.

The Gateway Pundit reporter Jordan Conradson attended today’s hearing in Washington DC
Steve Bannon and his attorney, David Schoen, spoke to the press earlier following Bannon’s DC court hearing in the sham January 6 Committee subpoena case.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Bannon has been ordered to surrender to prison by July 1. This ruling comes after Bannon’s appeal was denied by a Washington, D.C. judge.
United States District Court Judge Carl Nichols issued the decision on Thursday, rejecting Bannon’s request to stay his sentence while he seeks to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
This ruling follows Bannon’s conviction on charges related to his refusal to comply with a subpoena from the House committee investigating the January 6th witch hunt.
Bannon refused to provide documents to the January 6 Committee because President Trump asserted executive privilege.
“Based on long-standing U.S. Department of Justice authority, you should not appear for a deposition or provide documents,” Bannon argued.
“We’ve had constitutional executive privilege for 250 years, going back to George Washington,” Former Gorsuch clerk and regular guest on Bannon’s “War Room” Mike Davis said last month.
“So Presidents can get candid advice from their presidential advisors (both inside and outside of government( without fear they will get hauled before Congress—and especially not get thrown in prison,” he added.
Out of all the leftist protestors in DC, there was only one there for Bannon:

During his remarks, attorney David Schoen outlined why the charges are wrong and in conflict with President Trump's Executive Privilege and called on House Speaker Mike Johnson to convene the Bilateral Advisory Group to declare that the sham January 6 Committee violated House rules.
Steve Bannon slammed the Justice Department's persecution to stop the MAGA movement and declared that "There is not a prison built or a jail built that will ever shut me up."
Watch below:
Bannon: I've got great lawyers, and we're going to go all the way to the Supreme Court if we have to. But, I want to say something specificly about the Justice Department: Merrick Garland, Lisa Monaco, the entire Justice Department, they're not going to shut up Trump, they're not going to shut up Navarro, they're not going to shut up Bannon, and they're certainly not going to shut up MAGA. If you look right here, you reporters, in the two and a half or three years we've been here, look at the rise of MAGA, look at the rise of Donald Trump. If the election was held today, according to Harry Enten at CNN, President Trump would win in a landslide. All of this, besides the major legal issues that have to be addressed, all of this is about one thing. This is about shutting down the MAGA movement, shutting down grassroots conservatives, shutting down President Trump. Not only are we winning, we are going to prevail, and every number and every poll shows that. There is nothing that can shut me up and nothing that will shut me up. There is not a prison built or a jail built that will ever shut me up. All victory to MAGA. We're going to win this, we're going to win at the Supreme Court, and more importantly, we're going to win on November 5 in an amazing landslide with the Senate, the House, and Donald J. Trump back as President of The United States.

Newest ruling addresses exclusion of Catholic preschools from program
For at least the third time, the state of Colorado’s anti-Christian agenda has been cited – and condemned – by the federal courts.
The latest ruling said the state broke the law by excluding Catholic preschools from a universal preschool program – solely because those schools consider religious affiliate in making enrollment decisions.
It is the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty that explained a federal court ruling cites the state’s illegal exclusion of those preschools from a program that funds 15 hours per week of free preschool to more than 40,000 families.
During its first year, it benefited families with children in private, public and faith-based preschools.
But leftist activists inside the state’s bureaucracy refused to authorize benefits to families who sent their children to St. Mary’s and St. Bernadette’s Catholic preschools because those institutions ask families to share their Catholic beliefs.
The court found, in its 101-page opinion, that the state’s discrimination “created an unworkable scheme that breaches the appropriate limits on state power.”
The court found the state had “no compelling interest” in its discriminatory policy.
“Last year, a different federal judge in Denver also issued a ruling against the state, in a case brought by a separate religious preschool raising similar claims,” Becket reported.
“Of course a Catholic school shouldn’t be punished for caring about its students’ religion,” explained Nick Reaves, a Becket lawyer. “Colorado richly deserves this injunction, as it did the earlier one.”
The schools explained the state’s discrimination violated the Free Exercise, Free Speech and Establishment clauses of the First Amendment.
Integral to the state’s agenda is that it demands schools incorporate sexual orientation and gender identity ideologies into their programs. The state has plunged headfirst into that ideology since the election of homosexual Gov. Jared Polis.
The judge said, “The department has allowed faith-based providers to deny children and families equal opportunity based on their religious affiliation, or lack thereof, and has cited no compelling interest for permitting that discrimination while denying plaintiffs’ request for a related exemption. On that narrow basis, I conclude defendants have violated plaintiffs’ free-exercise rights and that judgment in favor of plaintiffs is warranted. I consequently grant Plaintiffs relief in the form of a limited permanent injunction, declaratory judgment, and nominal damages.”
It ruled, “The court immediately and permanently enjoins defendants Lisa Roy and Dawn Odean, acting in their official capacities on behalf of the Colorado Department of Early Childhood, from requiring, as a condition for participation in the Colorado Universal Preschool Program, that the preschools operated by plaintiffs St. Mary Catholic Parish in Littleton and St. Bernadette Catholic Parish in Lakewood agreed to provide or provide eligible children an equal opportunity to enroll and receive preschool services regardless of religious affiliation for as long as defendants allow exceptions from the religious affiliation aspect of the equal-opportunity requirement set out in [state law] and in the Colkorado Universial Preschool Program Service Agreement.
The defendants were ordered to pay $1 nominal damages.
The total hasn’t been announced, but Colorado taxpayers likely won’t get off so easily in the attacks on Christianity earlier, under the administration of Polis.
It recently lost the 303 Creative case at the U.S. Supreme Court.
There, state officials demanded that a Christian web designer follow the state’s anti-Christian “non-discrimination” mandate and promote events that violated the web designer’s faith.
A judge recently ruled that the state – the taxpayers – must pay the costs and fees for the plaintiff in that caser.
Such cases, by the time they are all the way through the high court, can accumulate tens, or even hundreds, of thousands of dollars in lawyers’ time and costs.
The leftist state’s failed attack was on Lorie Smith and her 303 Creative company, through which she intended to create websites for couples being married.
However, the state demanded that should she begin that service, she also must provide the same services to same-sex duos, in violation of her Christian faith.
She sued for the First Amendment violation demanded by the state, and won.
The state earlier lost a similar battle with Jack Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, who challenged the state’s “non-discrimination” plan that also would require him to promote ideologies that violate his Christian faith.
In that case, the Supreme Court specifically cited Colorado’s “hostility” to Christianity under Polis.

They want Trump dead.
Joe Biden and the Democrat-media complex are terrified of Trump. They know Trump is ahead in the polls. They know Joe Biden is unpopular.
This is why Biden’s DOJ is trying to jail Trump. Biden can’t win unless he cheats – or jails his main political rival.
A former US Attorney appointed by Bill Clinton fantasized about Trump dying in prison on his podcast on Wednesday.
“If he doesn’t win, he has an appreciable chance of dying in prison,” Harry Litman said. “The whole timeline, the whole crisis point of November goes away. So, if he doesn’t win on [November] the fifth, those cases lie ready to bring.”
The Hill reported:
A former federal prosecutor says there is an “appreciable chance” former President Trump could be in prison until the end of his life if he loses the 2024 election, remarking on the number and scope of criminal prosecutions against him.
Harry Litman, a former U.S. attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania during the Clinton administration, made the remarks to former Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) on his podcast Wednesday.
He said that if Trump wins the election, he is likely to use his authority over the Department of Justice to make its two criminal cases against him go away, and use the office of the presidency to avoid prosecution in Georgia’s state 2020 election case.
Trump has already been convicted of 34 felony business fraud counts in his New York hush money case. He has appealed the conviction, but is scheduled to be sentenced in July. He could get up to four years in prison for the charges.
Litman predicted Judge Juan Merchan will sentence Trump to a few months in prison for the business fraud charges, though he potentially wouldn’t have to serve it for years, pending appeal.
Last month former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki fantasized about Trump dying before the 2024 election on a Tuesday morning appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
Psaki fantasized about all the ways Trump can be eliminated this election season.
“Maybe Donald Trump will go away. Maybe he’ll go to jail. Maybe he will die. Not to be too morbid. But maybe. He’s not a young man,” Psaki said.
Business Insider recently fantasized about Trump’s death and published a piece titled: “Here’s what happens if Donald Trump dies while running in the 2024 presidential election”
“If Trump dies while seeking reelection, a few different things could happen, depending on when he dies and how close it is to Election Day.” – Business Insider writer Sonam Sheth wrote in an article published on Saturday.
The left always fantasizes about a Trump assassination. This is nothing new.

In a harrowing episode that underscores the fatal consequences of insufficient law enforcement and rising criminality, a 39-year-old man was arrested following a brutal attack that left one man dead and another injured.
This incident occurred in one of the most heavily gun-controlled states in America – California.
The heartbreaking event unfolded around 6:30 a.m. on State Street in San Jacinto near West 7th Street, according to KTLA.
The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department promptly responded to reports of Julio Rodarte firing indiscriminately at passing cars.
Victor Hugo Leon, who was returning home from his night shift, fell victim to this senseless act of violence.
Surveillance footage captured the horrifying moment when Rodarte started randomly shooting at cars on State Street. He can be seen firing off an entire magazine before reloading and continuing his rampage.

abc7 reported:
Julio Rodarte, 39, was arrested on suspicion of murder, and 10 counts of attempted murder.
“It’s so sad you know, very sad,” said Enrique Tores, who owns E & E Tires, located near the shooting. “In the back there were 5 or 6 people working you know, and I was afraid he would get in my business and start shooting people.”
He says he heard close to 30 shots during the incident.
The incident happened on State Street, north of W. 7th Street just after 7 a.m. Monday.
Rodarte apparently first stopped at a market in the area and attempted to buy a shot of liquor, but didn’t have enough money. He left and moments later allegedly pulled out the gun and opened fire.

Retired Air Force Larry Brock Jr., a J6er recently released after 372 days of incarceration, has stepped forward to share his experiences and thoughts on the current state of the United States. His words are a stark reminder of the political climate we find ourselves in, as well as a call to action for Americans.
Brock was sentenced to two years in prison for his role in the January 6 Capitol attack. The sentence, handed down by U.S. District Judge John Bates, comes as a shock to many who knew Brock as a decorated military officer.
Brock was convicted of obstructing the joint session of Congress during the 2021 Capitol riot, among several other misdemeanor charges. Prosecutors had recommended a harsher sentence of five years in prison, citing Brock’s “very troubling” and violent rhetoric leading up to January 6.
Brock is a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel who flew combat missions in Afghanistan before retiring. A retired Air Force major general praised Brock’s military service, citing an incident where Brock risked his life to protect U.S. forces from a Taliban attack.
“Retired USAF Lt. Col. Larry Brock graduated from the Air Force Academy and went on to pilot the A-10 for more than 20 years in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria. He is a Christian, Father, Texan, and life-long Patriot. Larry has dedicated his life to the United States of America,” according to his website.
However, Judge Bates emphasized that Brock’s military service did not outweigh the severity of his actions on January 6. This decision has sparked debate among conservatives who believe that Brock’s service record should have been taken into account.
Following his involvement in the Capitol event, Brock’s commercial airline pilot licenses were revoked by the Federal Aviation Administration, according to AP.
In a video posted on X, Brock detailed his 372 days of detention, which he described as a testament to the erosion of fundamental American rights.
Brock Jr.’s first act upon release was to express gratitude towards God and those who supported him during his incarceration.
“The first thing I must do is give thanks to my Lord and savior, Jesus Christ, for my deliverance and liberation,” he said.
Brock Jr. then turned his attention to the state of civil liberties in America. He lamented the erosion of rights that Americans once took for granted, such as free speech, the right to assemble, a speedy trial, and trial by a jury of peers.
“But now,” he said, “those rights just don’t exist anymore.” He criticized the current state of affairs where FBI censorship and propaganda, warrantless surveillance, indefinite pretrial and post-conviction detention have become commonplace.
He also pointed out the discrepancy in justice meted out to different individuals, creating a two-tier system. From former presidents to common men like himself, he argued that political show trials have become a norm rather than an exception.
In response to this perceived injustice, Brock Jr. called on fellow Americans to do more than just pray. He urged them to contact their representatives in Congress and demand they uphold the principles they claim to believe in.
He called for liberty for those who are oppressed and for the use of legislative power to ensure justice. If the representatives fail to meet these demands, Brock Jr. urged voters to remove them from office.
“Never again should there be a political prisoner in the United States,” he said. His final words echoed those of Martin Luther King Jr., a man who himself was a prisoner of his government: “Free at last, free at last. Thank God Almighty, I’m free at last.”

In a new lawsuit filed in Virginia, American Muslims for Palestine and National Students for Justice in Palestine, both notorious for their anti-Semitic, Hamas-supporting rhetoric, are being accused of acting as the “propaganda division” for Hamas terrorists in the United States.
A report from CBN reveals the dark collaboration aimed at spreading terrorist propaganda on American soil.
Arsen Ostrovsky of the Jerusalem-based International Legal Forum told CBN that American Muslims for Palestine and National Students for Justice in Palestine are essentially serving as the “propaganda division” for Hamas terrorists in the U.S. and that the groups are more than just “advocacy organizations”
Ostrovsky is working alongside the U.S. legal team of Greenberg, Traurig, and the National Jewish Advocacy Group.
The Gateway Pundit has reported on the support these groups receive directly from Hamas leaders. Senior Hamas official Khaled Mashal officially thanked student protesters at American universities for their protests and anti-Israel encampments and for their participation in the “Al-Aqsa Flood” war.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei also released a letter thanking American college students who staged campus protests against Israel and the United States after the October 7 terrorist attack by Hamas and praised them for their role as part of an international “Resistance Front.”
Ostrovsky explained, “They are acting and serving in collaboration and coordination with Hamas, essentially as propagandists and collaborators on campus to try and promote the Hamas extremist ideology.”
According to Ostrovsky, the campus agitators began mobilizing the day after October 7th.
“Hamas issued a call to action. And the very next day, SJP and their affiliates throughout the United States – they answered that call. They answered that directive. They created a toolkit, a manifesto for chapters across the United States, echoing the language, the terminology, the instructions by the Hamas terror group, and propagated that across campuses,” Ostrovsky said.
The lawsuit charges these groups with becoming foot soldiers for Hamas and includes nine plaintiffs, both Americans and Israelis, seeking damages for the harm inflicted. The suit also alleges the groups have committed violations of the U.S. Anti-Terrorism Act.
Among the plaintiffs are victims and survivors of the horrific Nova music festival massacre.
Ostrovsky asserted, “They are the ones fomenting the hatred, the antisemitism, the harassment of Jewish students. We need to shut them down. And we can do that legally by branding them as a terrorist organization, as a collaborator of the Hamas terror group, and making sure once and for all they cannot be active on campus.”
And the battle will not be fought only on the battlefield, but also in courtrooms.
“Today, Israel is being demonized, vilified, and delegitimized, with international law being weaponized against us simply for defending our citizens and trying to rescue our captives,” Ostrovsky continued.
He insisted that accountability is crucial not only for Hamas terrorists but also for those who enable and support their agenda. This fight is a critical step towards curbing the spread of extremist ideology and protecting Jewish students across America.

A recently released significant study has confirmed the suspicions of so-called COVID “conspiracy theorists” by suggesting a link between the COVID-19 shot and millions of excess deaths worldwide.
As GB News reported on Tuesday, scientists from the Netherlands’ Vrije Universiteit discovered despite the rollout of 13.5 billion COVID vaccines across the globe, excess mortality remained shockingly high. These findings were published in BMJ Public Health.
The scientists wrote that this “new” information raised “serious concerns.” They then elaborated on adverse events that have been reported following the introduction of the Fauci ouchie, including severe injuries and deaths.
“Although COVID-19 vaccines were provided to guard civilians from suffering morbidity and mortality by the COVID-19 virus, suspected adverse events have been documented as well,” the authors wrote. “Both medical professionals and citizens have reported serious injuries and deaths following vaccination to various official databases in the Western World.”
“During the pandemic, it was emphasized by politicians and the media on a daily basis that every Covid-19 death mattered and every life deserved protection through containment measures and Covid-19 vaccines,” they continued. “In the aftermath of the pandemic, the same moral should apply.”
The scientists went on to cite numerous studies which revealed that COVID-19 vaccination may induce myocarditis, pericarditis, and autoimmune diseases.
“This commonality hinders clinical suspicion and consequently its detection as adverse vaccine reactions,” the authors wrote.
The study goes on to note there have been over 3 million excess deaths in 47 western countries between 2020 and 2022. These include the United States, Australia, and nations in Europe.
The study cites that 1,033,122 excess deaths occurred in 2020 when the pandemic started and individuals had no immunity. But the numbers ROSE to 1,256,942 in 2021 and fell to just 808,392 in 2022.
Such news should come as a surprise to Gateway Pundit readers, given the fact COVID-19 vaccines have already been directly linked to deaths by otherwise healthy individuals.
As TGP reported, “Dr.” Anthony Fauci also finally came clean admitted that COVID shots can cause myocarditis while discussing the recent surge in COVID-19 cases and the ongoing vaccine drive last year.
Moreover, back in March, the FDA also admitted the COVID shot leads to a significantly elevated risk of seizure in toddlers. Yet government agencies around America continue to urge COVID vaccination for children as young as SIX MONTHS OLD.
How many more suspicious deaths and injuries will occur before the federal government finally takes action and launches a full-scale investigation to provide answers to the American people?

The latest voter registration numbers among noncitizens in Washington D.C. are a stark reminder of how the Democratic Party plans to use foreigners to cement their national majority.
Last year, an Obama-appointed federal judge upheld a Washington D.C. law that allows noncitizens, including illegal aliens, to vote in local elections.
The Washington Post reports:
The voters include 310 who registered as Democrat, 169 independent, 28 Republican and 16 Statehood Green, said Sarah Graham, a spokesperson for the D.C. Board of Elections.
In this city, which has no voting representative in Congress, leaders have expanded voting rights to noncitizen residents. Noncitizens are eligible to vote if they are at least 18 years old as of Election Day, have been a D.C. resident for at least 30 days before the election, have not been deemed by a court legally incompetent to vote and are not claiming the right to vote in any state, territory or country.
There has been opposition, with critics arguing that the right to vote should be reserved for American citizens. The U.S. House advanced a bill last month to block noncitizen voting in D.C., though it’s unlikely this bill would move forward in the Democratic-controlled Senate. Workers for the D.C. Board of Elections have also been fielding angry messages from callers opposed to noncitizen voting, said Monica Evans, the office’s executive director.
As reported by The Gateway Pundit, the city’s Democratic authorities are also handing out documents to illegal aliens and noncitizens explaining how they can register to vote and secure their left-wing supermajority.

As well as voting, noncitizens in D.C. are also permitted to work as police officers. The change in policy was reportedly implemented after the city realized that it was struggling to recruit and retain police officers. Successful applicants are also eligible for a massive $25,000 signing bonus to help accelerate the recruitment drive.

Bannon has been ordered to surrender to prison by July 1. This ruling comes after Bannon’s appeal was denied by a Washington, D.C. judge.
United States District Court Judge Carl Nichols issued the decision on Thursday, rejecting Bannon’s request to stay his sentence while he seeks to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
This ruling follows Bannon’s conviction on charges related to his refusal to comply with a subpoena from the House committee investigating the January 6th witch hunt.
Bannon refused to provide documents to the January 6 Committee because President Trump asserted executive privilege.
“Based on long-standing U.S. Department of Justice authority, you should not appear for a deposition or provide documents,” Bannon argued.
“We’ve had constitutional executive privilege for 250 years, going back to George Washington,” Former Gorsuch clerk and regular guest on Bannon’s “War Room” Mike Davis said last month.
“So Presidents can get candid advice from their presidential advisors (both inside and outside of government( without fear they will get hauled before Congress—and especially not get thrown in prison,” he added.

During the 2024 Saint Petersburg International Economic Forum, Russian President Vladimir Putin has gathered foreign journalists – including from ‘unfriendly countries’ – for a long conversations about many topics, including, of course, the new ‘authorizations’ by western powers for Ukraine to strike Russian territory with their supplied long-range missiles.
Putin warned that Moscow could arm countries near those Western powers that could potentially attack targets in their territories.
Several countries, including France, UK, Germany, and the United States, have given Ukraine the green light to utilize these missiles to strike targets inside Russia.
BBC reported:
“‘If someone thinks it is possible to supply such weapons to a war zone to attack our territory and create problems for us, why don’t we have the right to supply weapons of the same class to regions of the world where there will be strikes on sensitive facilities of those countries?’ the Russian president said. ‘That is, the response can be asymmetric. We will think about it’.”
Putin did not specify which countries Moscow could supply weapons to, but one of the potential targets that he mentioned was Germany.
“‘When they say that there will be more missiles which will hit targets on Russian territory, this definitively destroys Russian-German relations’, Mr. Putin said.”
US President Joe Biden has allowed Ukraine to use American-supplied weapons to strike targets in Russia, but only near the Kharkov region.
Sources have confirmed that Ukraine has already used US weapons to strike inside Russia in recent days.
Putin also gave a worrying warning that ‘the West was wrong to assume that Moscow would never use nuclear weapons’.
“‘For some reason, the West believes that Russia will never use it’, Mr. Putin said when asked by Reuters about the risk of nuclear escalation over Ukraine.
‘We have a nuclear doctrine, look what it says. If someone’s actions threaten our sovereignty and territorial integrity, we consider it possible for us to use all means at our disposal. This should not be taken lightly, superficially’.”
Russia has no plans to attack NATO territory, he insisted. He said Western countries should not make Russia out to be the enemy, because ‘they are only hurting themselves with this’.
“They thought that Russia wanted to attack Nato. Have you gone completely crazy? That is as thick as this table. Who came up with this? It is just complete nonsense, you know? Total rubbish.”

A passenger on an American Airlines flight from JFK to Athens, Greece, was asked to remove his shirt displaying a mugshot of President Donald Trump. The reason? The flight attendant deemed it “offensive” and “political.”
The passenger was taken aback by the request. He questioned the flight attendant, asking whether wearing a shirt with Trump’s image truly constituted a political statement.
The flight attendant insisted it did, saying, “I mean, I guess it is. I don’t think it gets more political than that,” adding, “For some people, it’s offensive.”
Jesse Watters discussed the situation on his show with co-host Pete Hegseth. Watters read out American Airlines’ response to the controversy: “Clothing displaying political messaging is not against our policy. We’ll move quickly to investigate the matter. A member of our team is reaching out to the customer to learn more about their experience.”
Hegseth expressed surprise at American Airlines’ response but also saw it as an opportunity for supporters of Trump to test the airline’s policy. He said, “I think everybody out there should find their MAGA gear and book an American Airlines flight. Let’s test the policy.”

For a variety of reasons, the United States Supreme Court has a constitutional obligation to take up President Trump’s criminal case following his unlawful conviction in New York state court.
First and foremost, federal issues permeate this case. While it was never a case that should have been brought in any court in the first place, this case especially should not have been brought in state court, where jurisdiction patently does not exist.
The driving legal issue was purportedly a campaign finance law violation which fell within the gamut of the Federal Election Commission. Bragg flimsily paired that charge with an alleged bookkeeping error to contrive his makeshift theory of criminal liability.
This was a theory of liability that was wholly bespoke and lacking any legal precedent whatsoever. In short, it was a theory befitted to one man and one man only: Donald John Trump.
Many experienced legal scholars, including those on the Left, have pointed to this remarkable fact. Indeed, even the most liberal court observers, largely sympathetic to Bragg and Merchan’s political crusade, were left asking how precisely this legal theory could possibly be replicated for any other defendant. Many rightly pointed out that this was the classic case of “show me the person, I’ll show you the crime.”
Incredulously, the judge in this case, Juan Manuel Merchan, allowed the Prosecution to categorically ignore the rules of evidence and professional ethics. Also disregarded were fundamental, time-tested principles of Anglo-American jurisprudence: including due process, the presumption of innocence, and perhaps most flagrantly – and jarringly — the necessity for unanimity in guilty verdicts.
Starting with the gag order, which by its design was a flagrant breach of President Trump’s constitutional rights to speak and criticize the court proceedings as he saw fit. Under federal law, gag courts conventionally are to be imposed only with the utmost care.
They are to be limited in size and scope. Gag orders are the quintessential example of what, under the law, is called a “prior restraint” on speech. Courts have always been highly reluctant to impose free-speech limitations on anyone, most of all in the form of a gag order.
To the extent gag orders are ever permissible, they must be narrowly tailored to address a compelling state interest. In other words, strict scrutiny, the highest and most exacting standard of judicial review, must be met.
The government, not the defendant, has the burden of proof of demonstrating 1) a compelling state interest exists that 2) warrants such an infringement on a fundamental constitutional right – namely, that most important right to expression delineated in the First Amendment.
The operative presumption is that any such restrictions on speech in the form of prior restraints are, normally, unconstitutional. Even, in the exceptionally rare case where the government does meet the requirements for strict scrutiny, the scope of the prior restraint must be highly, highly circumscribed to the conditions for which the court found the restriction necessary.
In the case of gag orders, usually the reason judges give for allowing them is not to protect the judge, as Merchan rather unbelievably asserted here – yet another flagrant break from precedent – but to protect the defendant from undue scrutiny or controversy or even endangerment (to borrow another famous constitutional phrase) “to life and limb.”
In this regard, the way Merchan weaponized the gag order here to suppress President Trump’s First Amendment rights functioned as a baldfaced attack on the Defendant’s fundamental liberties, for one, and the integrity of the judicial process, for two.
First, whenever judges typically weigh the merits of imposing a gag order, usually the countervailing threat to the defendant’s other constitutional rights significantly outweighs the cost of the short-lived burden of limiting the Defendant’s speech rights.
In the Merchan case, arguably the opposite was the case: the gag order itself violated, in addition to the defendant’s First Amendment rights, other fundamental constitutional rights as well.
Indeed, the gag order arguably put President Trump in greater jeopardy – and jeopardized the overall integrity of the judicial process – than if it had not been ordered.
This is because President Trump was prohibited from exposing the many conflicts of interest that existed in this case – conflicts that ran so deep as to seriously undermine the legitimacy of the entire proceeding – in addition to the validity of the final verdict.
The conflicts were myriad: Merchan donated money to Joe Biden, who will face Donald Trump in this November’s election. He donated to another PAC committed to stopping President Trump in his tracks.
His wife worked for Letitia James: the New York Attorney General who pledged to “get” Donald Trump on the campaign trail. His daughter serves as president of a consulting firm that has taken in millions upon millions of dollars from far-left Democratic politicians, like Adam Schiff and Ilhan Omar, who have in turn waged political jihad against Donald Trump.
Oh yeah, one of her clients is also the Biden-Harris campaign, who have something of a vested interest in seeing President Trump be locked behind bars – especially given the present state of the race, where most reputable polls have them down, and by significant margins, in most of the key battlegrounds necessary to win the 2024 race.
This past week, Merrick Garland was interrogated in a congressional hearing by Rep. Matt Gaetz about whether he had ever donated money to a political campaign or candidate while serving as a judge, a violation of the judicial code of ethics, Merchan demurred. He said no, because the rule is crystal clear that such donations, however minuscule, are impermissible.
If Gaetz had asked the Attorney General whether he believed the rule was a valid one – in other words, whether it logically made sense for judges generally to not donate to partisan candidates, I’m sure Garland would have said of course. If not, his DOJ would be leading the charge to change the rule. It does not make sense to abide by a rule that is illogical or unsound.
Thus, it becomes inexplicable as to why that same reasoning would not also apply to Merchan’s case. State court judges are swayed by the same political biases and imputed with the same types of conflicts as any federal judge. Merchan has a clear vested interest – politically, financially, professionally and personally – in prosecuting President Donald Trump, the leading candidate, based on every poll, to become the 47th President of the United States.
Merchan’s arbitrary and capricious use of the gag order to protect himself over and above the integrity of the justice system reeks of improprieties. What Merchan did was criminal, and those grounds alone – the judicial trampling over President Trump’s First Amendment and due process rights – raise all sorts of jurisdictional grounds for the Supreme Court to intervene and reverse this irremediably prejudiced verdict.
Beyond the gag order issue, other federal questions run rampant. To reiterate a point from earlier, this was a case that had already been looked at by federal agencies with prosecutorial discretion, including the DOJ, and in the case of the Federal Election Commission, had years ago received a clearance.
At the bare minimum, the underlying verdict which included a FECA violation should have been preempted by the FEC’s own exclusive jurisdiction to take up such matters.
The fact that the agency had already cleared the case would, presumably, render the “mix-and-match” verdict that included the alleged FEC violation, voidable. Merchan is no expert on federal law, far from it. He is an acting judge who graduated from a mediocre law school.
For him to unabashedly assert that only “I can say what the law is” is an egregious overreach of his duties. First, it is an utterly ignorant and unwise remark. State court judges have only a very narrow lane for jurisdiction.
It is not Merchan’s place to make categorical judgments and assertions about law well beyond his realm of expertise or jurisdiction.
Second, his statement was impeached by his own conduct, where he allowed the lead prosecuting attorney, Joshua Steinglass, to ramble on for hours and hours on end about points of law, including the burden of proof, in cases where he prevented Todd Blanche from doing the very same thing.
Perhaps most egregious of all, Merchan did not even allow testimony from an expert witness in federal election law! It is bad enough that a state court is ruling on a matter that is outside its jurisdiction.
But at the very least, allow the defense the opportunity to bring in an expert to explain to the jury the federal law that was implicated in this case. That, Merchan did not allow. Why? Because he operated with a clear bias – a clear animus – against the defendant.
This was a conflicted judge who carefully tailored the facts and jury instructions in the best possible light for the prosecution. He wanted a guilty verdict and did everything in his power to make an acquittal, or even hung jury, inconceivable. Thus, President Trump’s guilt was a forgone conclusion the minute he stepped into the courthouse, which is the very definition of a kangaroo court show trial.
I have already discussed two issues that demand federal intervention: 1) the assault on President Trump’s First Amendment rights from the arbitrary and capricious scope of the gag order itself, which failed to meet strict scrutiny. This is the standard of review the government is required to meet for all infringements on speech in the form of prior restraints, of which gag orders are the paradigmatic example. And 2) the jurisdiction problems arising from trying a federal issue – that had already been cleared by the requite federal agencies – in state court.
The third issue stems from the mix and match guilty verdict itself, which contravenes federal law in the worst possible way. The Supreme Court had made crystal clear in the decision Ramos v. Louisiana, that in a criminal trial, the jury verdict as to the underlying crime must be unanimous.
It is a time-tested principle of Anglo-American law that requires all twelve jurors not only agree the defendant is guilty in reaching their verdict (in other words, that the burden of proof, beyond a reasonable doubt, is proved by the Government for all elements of every crime alleged), but that the jury is unanimous as to the underlying crime itself!
The reasons for this should be obvious to anyone with even the most basic knowledge of our legal system: you can’t just have an “all of the above” approach to reaching a guilty verdict, because that would be an assault on the defendant’s due process rights.
In a way, such a verdict can be construed as a violation of double jeopardy and function almost like a bill of attainder – because the evidentiary standard and burden of proof is essentially watered down to accommodate more than one crime.
But the logic that otherwise informs the Left’s view of voting rights in one of their favorite legal aphorisms, “one person one vote”, is perplexingly not extrapolated to the courtroom (at least when Donald Trump is the defendant), where, applying the same sentiment and reasoning, would otherwise dictate an instruction of “one crime, one verdict.”
To put matters more succinctly: here, Merchan said “I need you to find President Trump guilty of one of three predicate crimes: it can be an FEC violation, a tax law violation, or a general bookkeeping violation (never mind the circular reasoning of one of the three predicate crimes being the same crime as the primary crime in this cockamamie judicial scheme).
It doesn’t matter which predicate crime you find him guilty of, so long as you find the People met their burden of proof on at least one of them!” The way Merchan instructed the jury teed up the prospect that a few, even a majority, of jurors could disagree that Bragg met his burden of proof for all three so-called crimes. Merchan did his best impression of Machiavelli and effectively told his jury that when deciding on a verdict, “the end justifies the means.”
What he needed was a guilty verdict – less important was how the jury got there. How the jury ruled, ultimately, on the matter remains cloaked in anonymity.
The public has a right to know, following Supreme Court precedent, at a bare minimum, on which underlying predicate crime the jury found President Trump guilty. Rather than maximize transparency and demand unanimity, Merchan instead maximized anonymity and put unanimity on the chopping block.
Of course, the reasons why Merchan and Bragg have worked so hard to keep the process secret is because if any of this got exposed, the entire decision, so riven with constitutional violations, errors, and abuses, would be easily tossed out the window the minute it reached an appellate court that maintained some semblance of fairness. Generally speaking, federal courts are much more rigorous, in their application of the law, than state courts.
This is because the standards are typically much higher for federal court – the quality of judges and prosecutors found in federal courts ordinarily (though not always) are of several grades higher than the acumen of Bragg, Merchan, and Joshua Steinglass.
The sort of chicanery Merchan got away with in providing a smorgasbord of options for the jury would be less tolerated in federal court. It is also troubling how Merchan could have possibly instructed the jury adequately to prosecute President Trump on a federal election law violation, when he had absolutely no prior experience with that body of law or its application.
Indeed, it remains an open question whether the alleged FECA violation that President Trump was charged with could even be prosecuted as a criminal matter at all. To the extent it can be, the jurisdictional bases for that criminal prosecution lies with federal institutions, like the Department of Justice, not rogue state courts acting unilaterally because they have no idea what the hell they are doing.
What Merchan allowed to happen in his courtroom is unconscionable, disgraceful, and a grave injustice to the integrity of the criminal justice system. The underlying case is rife with reversible error – a sad and sorry situation that demands intervention by a high authority, ideally the Supreme Court, with all deliberate speed.
It would be bad enough for a verdict as grievously and unapologetically as this one was in terms of breaching the Constitution to be handed down against any defendant, at any time. But to have been handed down against the man leading every single reputable poll to become the 47th President of the United States, is an injustice beyond the pale.
This is election interference of the highest possible order. Hence, it is incumbent upon the Supreme Court to act swiftly, and overturn the grave injustice committed by an entirely out of line state court, waging a brazen political prosecution, at once. Or else risk catastrophic damage to the integrity of our entire constitutional form of government.

Former FBI chief Andrew McCabe has claimed that some FBI agents and other law enforcement employees are planning to leave the country if Donald Trump wins in November.
In an interview with CNN’s Kaitlin Collins, McCabe argued that many individuals fear being “thrown in jail or grabbed in some sort of extra judicial detention” if Trump returns to the Oval Office.
He explained:
When you think about these things and you try to predict how Donald Trump is going to react are the steps he’s going to take you really don’t have to go any further than listening to the things he says and does his, comments recently are offensive and horrendous, but they’re not a surprising in any way. He’s been saying this for quite some time. I will be your retribution is referring to is supporters. So, you know him, you know, what motivates him. He is not a person who’s driven by principle or ideology. He is someone who’s entirely transactional.
If he feels like he’s been wronged in some way, then he focuses on revenge and then in vengeance. He’s made it perfectly clear that that’s what he’s gonna do. In the process of seeking that he run the risk of dismantling or greatly incapacitating the Department of Justice and the FBI. That is something that Americans on both sides of the political aisle should be worried about. We depend on those institutions to protect us.
It’s terrifying, it’s frightening. I have a lot of conversations with former colleagues, people who are or were in the intelligence and law enforcement community, and may have worked in the Obama administration, other places and people are really trying to assess what is life going to be like if Donald Trump wins a second term.
On a very personal level, I mean, these are tortures discussions with their family members about whether or not they have to leave the country to avoid being unconstitutionally and illegally detain. People were actually worried about being thrown in jail or grabbed in some sort of extra judicial detention. I think it’s crazy as this sounds in the United States, America, I think people should really consider that these are possibilities listen to what the man says.

McCabe’s fear may be predicated on acts that he himself has commited, including secretly spying on Trump and his administration in the hope that he could somehow bring it down. He has since admitted that this was a mistake.
Back in 2022, McCabe complained that Joe Biden had not gone far enough in threatening Trump supporters, who he described as “a clear and present danger to our democracy.”
McCabe said he would have preferred more references to “accountability,” a coded way of saying they should be sent to prison. “People would like to have seen a bit more references to accountability,” he said at at the time. “There really wasn’t much talk about what we’re doing about those insurrectionists.”

In a jaw-dropping interview with Tucker Carlson, the President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, unveiled horrifying details about the notorious MS-13 gang, exposing their involvement in satanic child sacrifice rituals. This revelation comes after Bukele’s successful campaign to rid his country of the gang’s deadly grip.
For many, this news will be shocking and hard to believe. The mainstream media has often labeled such claims as mere conspiracy theories. But now, with a world leader confirming these horrors, it becomes increasingly difficult to dismiss them as baseless rumors.
During the interview, President Nayib Bukele claimed that the gang, which originated in Los Angeles, has evolved into a Satanic organization involved in horrific rituals, including child sacrifice.
MS-13, initially formed by Salvadorans who were not permitted to sell drugs by Mexican gangs, eventually grew into a major international criminal organization with bases across the United States and Central America.
“When Bill Clinton decided to deport those guys, he didn’t tell our government at the time, “I’m deporting this criminal.” They just sent them here. They came, they were few, but unchecked. At the same time, some laws were passed to protect minors from imprisonment. Of course, gangs used that to recruit 15-year-olds, 16-year-olds, 17-year-olds,” said Bukele.
“At the beginning, it was some youth causing harm, assaulting, trying to control their territory, selling drugs—things that are bad, but probably not critical. But they grew, and they started controlling territories. A few years later, they were actually a huge international criminal organization with bases in Italy, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, and the US. Basically, a lot of major cities in the US have strongholds outside Washington, DC.”
“They grew and started killing more people to get territory, fight against rival gangs, collect debts, or money, or whatever. As the organization grew, they became Satanic. They started doing Satanic rituals. I don’t know exactly when that started, but it was well-documented,” Bukele added.
In one chilling account, he shared a story of a former gang member who left the group after refusing to participate in the sacrifice of a baby.
“I remember a news outlet that made this interview with a gang member in prison. We allowed them to go into prisons and do the interviews. They asked him, “How many people have you killed?” And he said, “I don’t remember.” Then they asked him, “What is your position in the gang?” He explained how he went up in positions. But he left the gang he said.”
“”Why did you leave the gang?” He said, “Well, because I was used to killing people. But I killed for territory. I killed to collect money. I killed for extortion. But I came to this house, and they were about to kill a baby.” And he, the killer, who had killed tens of people, said, “Oh, wait, what are we doing? Why are we going to kill that baby?” And they told him, “Because the beast asked for a baby, so we have to give him the baby.” He couldn’t resist it, so he left the gang. He’s in prison because he’s a killer, but he left the gang because he couldn’t tolerate what he was seeing,” Bukele wrote.
“So human sacrifice was a part?” asked Carlson.
NBC reported in 2017, “Houston authorities believe two MS-13 gang members from El Salvador held three teenage girls against their will and killed one of them in a satanic ritual.”
Whoa. The President of El Salvador just told Tucker that MS 13 participates in Satanic child sacrifice rituals after he saved the country from the gang takeover that infected the nation.
But the mainstream media told me that this was supposed to be a conspiracy theory?

Bukele expressed his belief in a “spiritual war” against such evil forces and emphasized that victory in this spiritual battle would reflect in real-world outcomes. He credited his administration’s success in improving security in El Salvador to winning this spiritual war.

The Bend Police Department has issued a statement addressing a recent incident that sparked widespread concern among the community and across social media platforms.
A video clip posted on TikTok and other platforms depicted a police officer claiming that public indecency in front of children is not a crime in Oregon, prompting outrage and confusion.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that the father shared a video on TikTok explaining that an individual had trespassed onto his property completely naked and approached his young child.
Reacting immediately, he shielded his child’s eyes from the naked trespasser and immediately dialed 911, expecting swift action against the individual for indecent exposure.
However, the response he received from the attending officer was shocking. In the recorded conversation, the officer can be heard stating that while trespassing is a crime, there are no laws in Oregon against “the actual nudity portion of it.”
The father is heard asking incredulously, “So you can expose yourself to children in Oregon.”
The officer responded, saying, “Again, if you’re not doing it for sexual gratification or the gratification of somebody else, yes, you are allowed to walk around in public naked.”
He states: “So a naked person came up onto my property here, approached my two-year-old kid completely naked… At what point did this become a normal and acceptable thing to do? The cops will literally do nothing about it. They’re basically saying we have to wait for that person to do something more serious to your kid before we can intervene.”
In a statement to The Gateway Pundit, the Bend Police Department addressed the community’s concerns with a clear message: if you’re outraged by this situation, it’s the state law that needs changing.
Read their statement below:
We’ve received many messages of concern about a post that has appeared on TikTok and X, and we want to make sure that our community has accurate information about the incident. As is often the case when short clips are shared on the internet, context can sometimes be missing.
At approximately 3:15 p.m. on Tuesday, June 4, officers responded to a caller reporting suspicious circumstances in the 1200 block of NW Knoxville Boulevard. The caller reported that a nude woman had walked up to the front of his home, where he and his child were present. When adults at the residence confronted her, she walked away.
Two of our officers responded to the incident. Officers trespassed the 32-year-old woman from the family’s property. She appeared to be experiencing a mental health crisis. If she returns to the property, she will be arrested.
In Oregon, being naked in public is not a crime. Both public indecency (ORS 163.465) and private indecency (ORS 163.467) have a required element of “intent to arouse.” That was not the case in this incident.
We understand the homeowner’s concern – it’s always off-putting when someone acting strangely is on your property, especially if your kids are present.
However, this is a state law, and so if you have concerns about Oregon’s public indecency laws, we would recommend you contact the Oregon Legislature to share your concerns.
Our Department has been accused of supporting pedophilia, and obviously that is not the case – we take crimes against children very seriously. In fact, our Department has an entire detective unit focused on investigating and holding accountable those who commit crimes against children.
Our officers accurately applied state law and properly trespassed the woman from the property, and we are proud of the work they do each day to keep our community safe.

Former Israeli Ambassador David Friedman joined Steve Bannon on The War Room on Wednesday afternoon.
Rabbi Pesach Wolicki was also invited on the program to discuss the current conditions in Israel.
Ambassador Friedman was ambassador when President Donald Trump moved the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Ambassador Friedman was also part of the historic Trump Abraham Accords that initiated peace agreements between Israel and several moderate Muslim nations. This was arguably the greatest time in modern history to hold the position of US Ambassador to Israel. My, how quickly times have changed!
During their discussion Ambassador Friedman agreed with Steve that the Biden Administration was making up talking points and openly lying about statements they credited to Israeli leadership.
The former ambassador also says the “every day” Joe Biden is making Hamas stronger. Maybe that was the plan?
Ambassador David Friedman: Look, Where we are is that every day Biden is making Hamas stronger. That’s really where we are, unfortunately. Every day he’s reaching out as nominally the most powerful human being on Earth, and he is begging Hamas, one of the most vile terrorist organizations in the world, begging them to come to the table and accept Israel’s surrender. I mean, it’s really what he’s doing. I think he made up a story about getting a proposal from Israel, because I don’t see anything in the proposal that he offered to Hamas that says anything about Israel winning the war. Israel has made it clear that I…
Steve Bannon: Hang on… I want to restate that. That was a lie, right? They made that up. There could not have possibly been any proposal that came from Israel, war cabinet or not, that did not have as a sine qua non, the destruction of Hamas’s military and political capabilities. Communities, correct?
Ambassador Friedman: 100% correct, yes.
Steve Bannon: How do you do this then with a guy sitting in the Roosevelt room and look in the cameras and lie to the American people in a time of war in Israel, an existential conflict? I mean, what are we dealing with? How could that even happen? How can Blinken and Sullivan go along with this, sir?
Ambassador Friedman: Look, I think it’s about pressuring Netanyahu. I think Biden believes politically he’s got to end this war. I think he wants to play on the hearts of these poor families that have continued to have people held hostage. So he gives them hope. Unfortunately, I think a lot of it is false hope. He gives them hope that somehow there’s a deal. They then go into the public squares in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv and demand that Bibi and the war or release the hostages when there really isn’t that opportunity. So he divides the country. He plays upon the worst fears and emotions of the Israeli people who are already fully traumatized. The only thing I’ve read in the media that actually made any sense to me was the Wall Street Journal report that Yahia Senwer, who is the head of Hamas, the one who engineered this incredible Holocaust-like attack, he cannot believe how much attention he’s getting from the United States. He cannot believe how he is the decision-maker about whether or not Biden is able to placate his base. He’s not letting go of these hostages as long as Biden is making him to be the most important leader on the world stage, which is tragic at so many different levels.
Joe Biden is destroying US foreign policy around the world. It’s hard to describe how dangerous the Biden regime has been to global stability.

Tucker Carlson has uploaded a new interview on X with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele.
In it, the two discuss the secret behind Bukele’s success against criminal gangs, his relationship with God, prayer, satanism, and much more.
In February, Bukele was elected with 84% of the vote, making him one of the world’s most popular elected leaders.
Unlike many political leaders, Bukele’s inauguration speech revered God, which intrigued Tucker Carlson, who was in attendance.
During his interview with Bukele, Tucker asked the El Salvadoran president, “In your inaugural, you said, “In this term, the first point of my plan is to seek God’s wisdom. Why would that be the first point of an economic plan?”
Bukele: “Why wouldn’t it be?”

During another part of the interview, Tucker asked President Bukele how he was able to crack down on murder in the country.
Previously, El Salvador was the murder capital of the world, but under Bukele’s leadership, the country is now one of the safest places in the Western Hemisphere.
Bukele explained to Tucker that before his administration started a massive crackdown on the criminal gang members who were the culprits behind the high murder rate, he and other members of his cabinet prayed.
The president of El Salvador stated, “We were looking into an impossible situation. So, we prayed.”

Fox News host Sean Hannity has sparked outrage among conservatives by attempting to get President Donald Trump to go easy on Biden’s gestapo Department of Justice. This comes despite Trump facing 94 politically motivated and baseless indictments.
In an exclusive interview on “Hannity,” President Donald Trump laid bare the unprecedented political persecution he faces and slammed the Biden regime’s catastrophic governance.
Trump did not mince words when addressing the litany of legal challenges hurled at him by the left. He detailed the baseless nature of the Georgia case, now on hold pending an appeal regarding DA Fani Willis’s disqualification.
Similarly, the DOJ’s shaky document case in Florida raises serious questions about the legitimacy of the special counsel’s appointment and the integrity of the evidence. Trump unequivocally asserts that these cases are nothing more than politically motivated witch hunts designed to sabotage his presidential campaign.
During the interview, Hannity asked Trump a direct question: “Will you pledge to restore equal justice, equal application of our laws, and this practice of weaponization? Is that a promise you’re going to make?”
Trump, who faces 94 fake indictments, which are politically motivated and without merit, responded with a strong sentiment about the current state of politics.
Hannity: Will you pledge to restore equal justice, equal application of our laws, and this practice of weaponization? Is that a promise you’re going to make?
Trump: You have to do it. But it’s awful. Look, I know you want me to say something-
Hannity: No, I don’t want you to say. I’m asking.
Trump: But I don’t want to look naive. What they’ve done to the Republican Party, they want to arrest on no crime. They want to arrest the person that won the nomination in a landslide. There was nobody even close in a landslide. The person that got millions of votes, more votes than any other sitting president in history in the last election, the person that won an election that he wasn’t expected to win against Hillary Clinton in 2016, they want to arrest that person on no crime. They want to arrest… There was no crime. There was no criminality. There was no crime. And you can go back to all of these legal scholars. They can’t believe what’s happening. Some of them don’t even like me, and they’re saying, “This is a very dangerous thing that’s happening.” No, we can’t let this happen. And I will do everything in my power not to let it. But there’s tremendous criminality here. What they’re doing to me, if it’s going to continue, we’re really not going to have much of a country.
Hannity’s line of questioning sparked outrage among many conservative viewers who felt Hannity was being too lenient on the Biden regime’s DOJ.
One user, Vince Lagman, voiced his frustration on social media, writing, “Listen to that snowflake Sean Hannity trying to get the guy facing 94 fake indictments to agree not to hold Biden Gestapo DOJ accountable when he gets back in office. Cowards like Hannity are exactly why Democrats have no fear of retribution!”
Another user expressed discontent: “What the hell is wrong with Hannity??? Every day he whines about the corruption of the Bidens and other Dems… And how there is a two-tiered justice system… And Now He Wants Trump To Go Easy On Them if Elected??????”
The sentiment was echoed by a third commenter, who wrote, “It’s driving me crazy. Why is he so hooked on Trump not getting so-called ‘retribution’? These people are committing crimes. Sean Hannity makes it sound like they are right and should not be punished for it!!!”

Biden and his Democratic allies were in for a crude awakening in the aftermath of last week’s sham guilty verdict against President Trump, the byproduct of a kangaroo trial that denied the leading man to be America’s next president due process rights and his freedom of expression.
While Biden was expecting the American people to at long last turn on President Trump, in fact the opposite occurred: they rallied to his side, at a rate previously unseen in modern presidential history. President Trump’s fundraising haul since last week’s conviction has been historic: he has hauled in hundreds of millions of dollars of cash.
In May, President Trump’s campaign posted its highest figure ever – $141 million – far outpacing Joe Biden, who has been struggling mightily to prevent the bloodletting of voters across every demographic group to President Trump’s corner.
Indeed, on the same day the 45th President held his press conference at Trump Tower to denounce the Biden-Bragg show verdict as but the latest attempt in the Left’s never-ending saga to derail MAGA and rig another presidential election, new polling came out showing the 45th President with a 6-point nationwide advantage over Biden, and leading in all six key battleground states this cycle: Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Nevada.
While Biden’s problems are bad on the domestic front, they get arguably worse overseas. The international order has descended into chaos under Biden’s stewardship.
Western countries have been ravaged by strife and warfare in Eastern Europe and the Middle East to levels not seen since World War II. Meanwhile, autocratic regimes like China, Iran, and Russia have been empowered, relative to the United States and Europe, which have been brought to near financial and cultural ruin by the suicidal policies of the Biden government.
The world community is hurting – and they can see the show trial for what it is: a persecution of a political opponent, plain and simple. Many of the countries that rallied to the 45th President’s defense and called Biden’s bluff had firsthand experience with political prosecutions, those being dark parts of their histories, and how a weaponized justice system can bring down a democratic and free society.
For example, Nayib Bukele, the new president of El Salvador, said in a recent sit-down interview with Tucker Carlson that the Democrats are making a “huge mistake” by arresting President Trump. Over the course of the conversation, Bukele said the lawfare against President Trump has given him “the greatest campaign ever” and “will just give [President Trump] more votes.”

The sentiment Bukele expressed was shared by leaders from across the world. In the United Kingdom, Nigel Farage, current leader of the Reform Party, denounced the Biden show trial in the harshest of terms, contending that the Left “overplayed their hand.” He added that he is now “more certain [President Trump] will win.”
Farage’s remarks were echoed by former Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, who also was no-holds-barred in his takedown of the guilty verdict: “When we see this happening in Africa, or in Russia, we denounce it as authoritarian and corrupt. Well, the American people have looked at it, and decided that the methods and the motives are fundamentally the same. Whatever his detractors may say, I believe that Donald Trump – at his best – could offer the world the strong, confident leadership that it needs.”
Former UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson’s, denunciation of the Biden show trial verdict, which was reposted on President Trump’s Truth Social page.
Matteo Salvini, Italy’s Deputy Prime Minister, joined his British companions in offering his own withering critique of the verdict. Salvini issued a statement, later reposted by President Trump, which said: “Solidarity and full support for @realDonaldTrump, victim of judicial harassment and a process of political nature. In Italy, we are sadly familiar with the weaponization of the justice system by the [L]eft, given that for years attempts have been made to eliminate political opponents through legal means. I hope Trump wins; it would be a guarantee of greater balance and hope for world peace.”
Matteo Salvini, Deputy Prime Minister of Italy, also criticizing the verdict in the harshest of terms. Salvini’s remarks were posted on President Trump’s Truth Social page.
Viktor Orbán, Prime Minister of Hungary, also offered supporting words on behalf of the 45th President, saying: “I’ve known President [Trump] to be a man of honour. As President, he always put America first, he commanded respect around the world and used this respect to build peace. Let the people make their verdict this November! Keep on fighting, Mr. President!”
Screen grab of Hungarian PM, Viktor Orban’s critique of the Biden show trial verdict, which was re-Truthed by President Trump.
Things have gotten so bad with the weaponized justice system in the United States that even autocratic countries, like Russia and China, sharply denounced the political prosecutions occurring here. Dmitry Peskov, spokesman for the Kremlin, condemned the guilty verdict as the “elimination of political rivals by all possible legal or illegal means.”
Even China, perhaps America’s greatest foreign adversary (and not known for being a bastion of democracy and freedom), reported negatively about the verdict. Chinese state media framed the verdict as yet another way by the Biden government to “exacerbate political extremism” and “social unrest” domestically.
News of President Trump’s unprecedented conviction at the hand of a politicized and weaponized Justice Department has spread like wildfire the world over. Many countries that once viewed the United States as a beacon of freedom are developing a much different view, one that is deeply jaded about the current trajectory under Joe Biden, of which the verdict is but only the latest example of a laundry list of woes.
Biden is equal parts awful at home and abroad: he strikes the image of a bumbling idiot on the global stage, conveying extreme weakness and incompetence, while running roughshod over the rule of law and civil liberties at home – going so far as to risk plunging America into chaos by prosecuting his leading political opponent in order to cheat his way to a second term, because at this point cheating and lawfare is the only way he knows how to win elections.

Joe Biden’s America.
Illegal aliens rushed over the US border in San Diego County just 12 hours after Joe Biden announced his new executive order on asylum seekers.
Joe Biden on Tuesday held a fake border security press conference on his new asylum ‘restrictions’ from the East Room.
More than 15 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age males – have invaded the US on Biden’s watch.
Joe Biden took 94 executive actions in his first 100 days in office to destroy the border.
Now he’s acting like the savior with his new ‘asylum restrictions’ – only asylum is STILL AVAILABLE to thousands of illegal aliens every single day released into the US.
According to The New York Post, Biden’s new border ‘crackdown’ will still allow at least 1.8 million illegals to enter the US every year.
According to Fox News reporter Bill Melugin, the illegal border crossers he encountered (mainly adult males) on Wednesday in Jacumba, California were from Colombia and Venezuela.
We have no idea who these people are.

Bill Melugin also encountered unvetted groups of men from the Middle East illegally crossing into Jacumba, California, including “Special Interest Aliens” from Egypt, Jordan, and Turkey.
A Special Interest Alien is an illegal immigrant who, based on travel patterns and point of origin, poses a national security threat to the United States.
Joe Biden’s open border is putting all American citizens in danger.
“A Jordanian man told me he came here for work, not asylum,” Bill Melugin said. “He told me he knows he broke the law, and that he doesn’t care.”

Barr made the comments during an interview on Fox News with Martha McCallum, pointing out that Trump obviously did not commit a crime.
“I said from the very start that this was an abomination, and I actually was surprised that they went ahead with the case because there really was nothing there,” Barr said. “There was no crime there, and they really weren’t able to articulate it until after the defense rested its case. So I thought the whole thing was a travesty.”

The 74-year-old, who betrayed tens of millions of Americans by refusing to investigate election fraud during the 2020 presidential election, added that the conviction would undermine any potential Biden victory.
“This will be eventually overruled after the election. But what if there’s a close election? And Biden squeaks through, and then the case is overruled?” he continued. “Half the country is gonna feel this was a stolen election and again, this is a grave injustice and disservice to the country.”
Barr recently confirmed that despite their fallout and Trump’s various attacks on his character, he would still be voting for the former president in November.
“If faced with a choice between two people, neither of which I think should be president, I feel it’s my duty to pick the person who I think would do the least damage to the country,” Barr said at the time.
“And I think Trump would do less damage than Biden. And I think all this stuff about a threat to democracy, I think the real threat to democracy is the progressive movement. And in the Biden administration.”

Pro-Hamas activists broke into the Stanford president’s office Wednesday morning at 5:30 AM.
The protesters then vandalized the office, locked the doors, and started to broadcast on Instagram.
Local police quickly broke into the room and arrested the protesters. The university then quickly expelled them from campus. The university then released a statement saying they will work with police to ensure the young hoodlums face the full consequencens
That’s how it’s done!
KTVU reported:
Pro-Palestinian protesters took over the Stanford president’s office early Wednesday morning, drawing a large police presence in reaction and ending in 13 arrests.
The university said all the students who were arrested will be immediately suspended, and if they are seniors, will not be allowed to graduate.
The university also said that a public safety officer was injured after being shoved by protesters who were interfering with a transport vehicle. Plus, according to the university, there was “extensive damage” to the interior of Building 10 and the exterior of the buildings in the quad.
“We are appalled that our students chose to take this action, and we will work with law enforcement to ensure that they face the full consequences allowed by law,” Stanford President Richard Saller and Provost Jenny Martinez said in a joint statement. “We have consistently emphasized the need for constructive engagement and peaceful protest when there is a disagreement in views. This was not a peaceful protest and actions such as what occurred this morning have no place at Stanford.”
The protesters, mostly students, surrounded Building 10 at about 5:30 a.m., where President Richard Saller works, as does the provost.
“WE HAVE TAKEN OVER PRESIDENT SALLERS (sic) OFFICE!!!” the protesters wrote on their account, liberatestanford, on Instagram. “WE WILL STAY UNTIL OUR DEMANDS ARE MET.”
The young activists wrote “no pigs” with spray paint on the door as they hid in the president’s office.

Arizona Congressman Paul Gosar has called on the Federal Reserve to start issuing $500 bills that would feature President Trump’s portrait.
Gosar, a staunch Trump ally and one of the most trustworthy Republican members of the Congress, authored the Treasury Reserve Unveiling Memorable Portrait (TRUMP) Act, which he claims will “empower Americans with the freedom of more tangible options to save and exchange goods and services.”
“As Bidenflation continues to devalue our currency, the issuance of $500 bills featuring President Trump by the Treasury offers several practical advantages,” Mr. Gosar said.
The legislation would require the Secretary of the United States Treasury to print $500 Federal Reserve notes featuring Trump’s portrait.

Gosar added that Trump’s face would help create increased tax revenue as a result of increased demand for “numismatic items.”
“Collectors often covet currency with unique designs and historical significance and bills featuring the very popular 45th President will attract considerable attention from collectors,” he said.
Given the current Democratic control of the Senate and White House, such legislation has zero chance of passing, at least with Trump’s face on it.
The current U.S. currency denominations and their featured figures include George Washington on the $1 bill, Thomas Jefferson on the $2 bill, Abraham Lincoln on the $5 bill, Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill, Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, Ulysses S. Grant on the $50 bill, and Benjamin Franklin on the $100 bill.
The Treasury Department has previously issued $500 at a time when they were worth multiple times what they are now, however they were discontinued in 1969 due to lack of use.

The Biden campaign recently accused John Roberts of lying about a Trump era policy that Biden is trying to take credit for and they are now living to regret it.
Roberts took to the airwaves on Wednesday and disproved the Biden campaign’s accusation and he brought all of the receipts to back up his argument.
You can tell from the way Roberts addresses this that he is not cool with what Biden’s people tried to do here.
RedState reported:
The “Biden-Harris HQ,” which is an official arm of the Biden campaign, found itself facing pushback after it claimed Fox News’ John Roberts had told a “blatant lie” regarding Trump and insulin prices. Here’s what the post, which still hasn’t been deleted or corrected, looked like.
The problem? Their “fact-check” is factually untrue, and Roberts wasn’t willing to take the accusation lying down. Instead, he took the airwaves with a handful of receipts and delivered a takedown of the Biden campaign.
ROBERTS: Yesterday, coming out of a segment in which the $35 insulin co-pay under the Inflation Reduction Act was mentioned, I remarked that I recalled back in May of 2020, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services that stated President Trump had a plan to lower insulin co-pays to $35. The Biden campaign’s rapid response issued a post on X saying the following: “Fox host tries to claim Trump, not President Biden capped insulin at $35 a month. Fact-check: This is a blatant lie.”
But there are receipts to dispute the Biden campaign’s claim about what I said.
This is the Biden team tweet that started this:
Fox host tries to claim Trump, not President Biden, capped insulin at $35/month

After crashing through the doors, Joseph Leedy, 40, got out of the car wearing only the shirt, poured the motor oil, and threatened to light the place on fire.
Leedy declared that he wanted to “kill everyone” as he threw the rubber snakes on the ground and fought with officers.
The unhinged man claimed that the “devil” was making him do it and ranted about hating President Donald Trump.
Local station WPTV reports that Chief Deputy John Budensiek said during a press conference that paramedics gave him multiple doses of ketamine in an attempt to calm him down, but ultimately he was tased.
The station reports:
Budensiek said Leedy refused to cooperate with deputies’ commands, so they were forced to tase him and take him into custody.
“While our deputies were interacting with him, he kept saying things like, ‘The devil told me to kill everyone.’ And he kept sharing his disdain for President Donald Trump,” Budensiek said.
The chief deputy added that paramedics gave Leedy “multiple doses of ketamine” to calm him down, but it “did not sedate him.”
Leedy was taken to Cleveland Clinic Martin South Hospital, but was later released and booked into the Martin County Jail.
“While he did penetrate the initial door to the lobby, at no time was the jail itself ever compromised. This jail is built extremely well. There’s double layers of concrete wall behind this door. The jail and our jail staff and our inmates were safe during this entire encounter,” Budensiek said.
Leedy has now been charged with multiple counts of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, criminal mischief, and resisting arrest without violence.

Joe Biden is having trouble focusing on day-to-day tasks of his job because he is worried about the Hunter Biden gun trial and is obsessing over it, according to recent reports.
It has always been clear that Hunter is a weak and vulnerable point for Joe Biden. When he is forced to comment on his son or defend his history, he has a pattern of losing his cool pretty quickly.
The fact that Jill Biden has been visible in the courtroom during the trial suggests that she is worried about the outcome as well.
Breitbart News reports:
Report: Distracted Joe Biden Obsesses, Worries About Hunter’s Gun Trial
President Joe Biden is having trouble focusing on work because he is obsessing and worrying about his son’s gun trial in Delaware, a report by Politico claims.
The White House claimed twice Joe Biden will not pardon Hunter if found guilty in his gun or tax cases.
Joe Biden, who is in France to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day, is closely following Hunter Biden’s trial, which Politico characterized as a “distraction,” according to three people familiar with his conversations.
White House aides reportedly hope Joe Biden’s trip to France will “help Biden obsess a little less about the trial,” but “advisers know it will never be far from his mind.”
Joe Biden is constantly texting and calling family members who are watching the proceedings back home for updates, Politico set out.
First Lady Jill Biden, who attended the first two days, and Hunter’s wife Melissa Cohen Biden, are in court Wednesday. At least ten Biden associates are in the gallery, NBC News reported.
Joe Biden has good reasons to be worried. The Hunter trial is revealing damning new details almost every day.

MSNBC relic Chris Matthews, who is perhaps best remembered for saying that Obama sent a thrill up his leg in 2008, recently appeared on the network’s Morning Joe program to sow fear over Donald Trump.
Matthews claimed that it’s ‘very reasonable’ to assume that if Trump is reelected that he will become a dictator.
This fear-mongering is all the left has. They can’t make a case for reelecting Joe Biden so they have been reduced to trying to scare voters out of supporting Trump.
There is absolutely zero evidence that Trump would become an authoritarian. There is however, ample evidence that Joe Biden already is an authoritarian on many issues.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
CHRIS MATTHEWS: This is the opposite of Donald Trump, who wants to put them before firing squads, basically. He wants put them all in jail. He’s unbelievable the way he talks about his opponents.
This is exactly the choice we have a dictatorship, or a democracy. We have to choose.
This election is about more than abortion, it is about the whole question of what kind of government we’re going to have? What kind of country do we want to live in, do we have a dictator who tells the U.S. Congress don’t do anything about the border, don’t do anything, let it rock n roll, let thousands come through between now and election day, it doesn’t matter if they stay here forever, as long as we win the election.
He’s going to talk like that to the Supreme Court. He would love to see them give him immunity, he would love to get that. He’s probably counting on it in this trial in New York too, about the hush money. He’s probably working on some back room plan to somehow speed this to the Supreme Court and let Alito and that incredible coup they pulled off there against Judge Roberts. Alito is running the show. So, you never know what can happen with his five members.
I’m telling you, Trump could end up rolling the score. “I’ve got the Congress and I’ve got the Supreme Court, I own it all, I am a dictator.” It is very reasonable to assume that’s where he’s headed.
Here’s the video:
MSNBC host Chris Matthews has a terminal case of Trump Derangement Syndrome:

CNN reporter Jackie Kucinich recently admitted on the air that concerns about Joe Biden’s age and mental decline are real and are not going away.
She was referencing the Wall Street Journal report that talked about lawmakers from both parties saying that the issue has gotten worse and that Biden is not the same man as he once was.
She and her colleague then suggest that this is the reason people on the left are putting so much importance on the June debate, because it will give Biden a chance to overcome this perception.
FOX News reports:
Biden’s old age concerns aren’t going away soon, CNN reporter says: ‘This isn’t Benjamin Button here’
CNN reporter Jackie Kucinich said doubt around President Biden’s mental sharpness will not go away after The Wall Street Journal reported that some lawmakers and other officials are concerned the chief executive has slowed down.
“It’s not going away,” Kucinich said. “He’s not going to age backwards.”
“This isn’t Benjamin Button here,” she added, referencing the eponomyous 2008 movie character who ages in reverse. “This is Joe Biden.”…
Kucinich said it was clear Biden’s advisers are concerned his age is an issue for his presidential campaign. She pointed to reports that the White House reached out to lawmakers to call the Journal back about their statements.
“You don’t keep tabs on Democrats that The Wall Street Journal is interviewing and then have them circle back to highlight Biden’s strength if … you don’t think this is a vulnerability,” Kucinich said. “All [the Biden campaign] can do is present him in as strong of a position as they can.”
She also said the first debate between Biden and former President Trump, scheduled for June 27 on CNN, will be critical for convincing voters of Biden’s mental fitness.
Here’s the video:

The Latin American leftist network of leaders is delighted by the victory of the ruling party’s candidate Claudia Sheinbaum in the ultra-violent Mexican elections that saw over 28 candidates killed during the election cycle.
But the market reacted in a panic, as the unrelenting violence keeps claiming the lives of political leaders, and the opposition demands a full recount of the problematic vote.
Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro, Colombia’s Gustavo Petro, Brazil’s Lula da Silva were quick to celebrate the victory, and the leftist goons of the ‘Puebla Group’ sent a delegation to meet with Mexico’s president-elect.
Present at the meeting were former presidents Alberto Fernández (Argentina) and Evo Morales (Bolivia), ahead of a large delegation of the group of ‘progressive leaders’ (a.k.a. socialist hacks).
Although dedicated leftist Sheinbaum celebrated that Mexico is a ‘democratic country with peaceful elections,’ there is now a request of recounting the votes by an opposition candidate, another mayor was assassinated, and the market is plunging out of distrust towards the new government.
Runner-up in Mexico’s presidential election, opposition candidate Xóchitl Gálvez announced that has filed a request to contest the election and demand a recount.
Gálvez wrote on X:
“I know the results surprise us, and we need to analyze what happened. We all knew we were facing an unequal competition against the entire state apparatus dedicated to favoring its candidate. We all noticed how much organized crime was present, threatening and even killing dozens of candidates.
This does not end here. Yes, we will present the challenges that prove what I am saying and what we all know. And we will do so because we cannot allow another election like this. Today, more than ever, we must defend our democracy and our republic. Checks and balances and the separation of powers remain at risk.”
While the complaint about organized crime influence may be seen as exaggerated, it is absolutely not.
CBS reported:
“The mayor of a town in western Mexico was killed on Monday, the regional government said, barely 24 hours after Claudia Sheinbaum was elected the Latin American country’s first woman president. Officials said the mayor’s bodyguard was also killed in the attack.
The Michoacan state government condemned ‘the murder of the municipal president (mayor) of Cotija, Yolanda Sanchez Figueroa’, the regional interior ministry said in a post on social media.”
Elected in 2021, Sanchez was gunned down on a public road, according to local media, with one outlet even reporting that she was shot 19 TIMES outside of a gym, in a drive-by by gunmen inside a white truck who opened fire ‘from the moving vehicle and then escaped’.”
Sanchez’s bodyguard was also reportedly hit by the gunfire and died.
Dozens of candidates (and countless voters) have been killed despite 27,000 soldiers and National Guard members deployed to reinforce election security.
With all that, it is perhaps not surprising that the market has reacted poorly – to say the least – to the continuation of the leftist government in Mexico.
Bloomberg reported:
“Mexico’s peso sank for a second session after an unexpected landslide election win by the ruling party injected local political risk into one of the world’s top carry trades.
The peso shed as much as 2.9% to 18.1936 per dollar by 11:45 a.m. in London, adding to its 3.8% loss on Monday that was its worst one-day tumble since June 2020. Mexico’s benchmark stock index sank 6.1%, the most since the onset of the pandemic.”

Slowly but surely, highly unpopular French President Emmanuel Macron is taking his dysfunctional Republic step-by-step towards a war with Russia.
It is now certain that during the 80-year celebration of the D-Day landings, he will take the opportunity to announce that he is sending French ‘military instructors’ to train the Ukrainian forces near the frontlines.
As one would expect, the Russians responded with a clear threat against any French soldier or trainers in Ukraine.
Politico reported:
“’No instructor involved in training the Ukrainian military has immunity’, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told the press according to a report from French newswire AFP. ‘It doesn’t matter whether they’re French or not’, Peskov added.”
Macron will meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is widely expected to announce a small coalition of countries willing to send trainers on the ground in Ukraine.
“Russia’s Vladimir Putin said last week there were already ‘specialists [in Ukraine] under the guise of mercenaries’. State news agency TASS meanwhile quoted Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova as saying that Moscow had ‘confirmation coming in on reports that France is preparing to send its troops to Ukraine’, in reference to trainers.”
Russian foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, also said that French military instructors operating in Ukraine are a ‘legitimate target’ for Russia.
Business Insider reported:
“‘Regardless of whether they are French Army service personnel or just mercenaries, they are an absolutely legitimate target for the Russian Armed Forces’, he told reporters, per an official transcript from Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
‘I have reasons to think that they are already active in Ukraine’, he said, without giving specifics.”
The prospect of sending troops to Ukraine is gaining traction among NATO members such as the Baltic States And Poland.
“Ukrainian leaders have asked the US and other NATO allies to assist in training 150,000 recruits closer to the front lines for speedier deployment, The New York Times reported last month.”
This is an important bottleneck in the Ukrainian army, for not only can’t they draft enough citizens into the army, but they also can’t train them properly before sending them to the front.
So Ukrainian field commanders have been bracing for the influx these poorly trained recruits.
Sputnik reported:
“The commanders complained that they used to spend weeks teaching new recruits basic skills, such as how to shoot, because most of them were poorly trained.
‘We had guys who didn’t even know how to take a rifle apart and put it back together’, [said] an assistant battalion commander with the call sign Schmidt.”
Commanders have to waste a lot of time right at the front on basic training of the conscripts.

Sgt Daniel Perry
Soros-backed Travis County District Attorney José Garza is seeking to overturn Governor Abbott’s pardon of Daniel Perry, who was convicted of fatally shooting a BLM/Antifa protestor in 2020 in self-defense.
“The Board of Pardon and Paroles, and the governor, put their politics over justice and make a mockery of our legal system,” Travis County District Attorney José Garza said in a press conference on Tuesday. “For that, they should be ashamed of themselves. Their actions were contrary to the law.”
The knives are out for Sgt. Perry.
Additionally, 14 Democrat state attorneys general called on the US Justice Department to investigate Sgt. Perry’s case.
Last month Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) pardoned Sgt. Daniel Perry following a unanimous recommendation by the Board of Pardons and Paroles.
Sg. Daniel Perry was sentenced to 25 years in prison for shooting a BLM-Antifa protester in self-defense in 2020 after a Soros DA went after him.
Abbott and Texas AG Ken Paxton ripped the Soros DA in statements last month.
“Texas has one of the strongest ‘Stand Your Ground’ laws of self-defense that cannot be nullified by a jury or a progressive District Attorney,” Abbott said in a statement announcing Perry’s pardon.

Ken Paxton blasted the Travis County DA.

Soros-backed prosecutors like Jose Garza do not get to pick and choose the rights we have as Americans, and I am relieved that justice has prevailed,” Ken Paxton said.

Sgt. Daniel Perry was found guilty of murder last year after Soros-backed Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza sought murder charges for an act of self-defense during the 2020 George Floyd riots.
Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza
According to David Fugitt the lead detective on the case, District Attorney Joze Garza and his office had him remove 100 pages of exculpatory evidence. The DA’s office had him shorten his presentation from 158 slides to 56 slides.
Fugitt added that this was likely criminal behavior.
Daniel Perry, an army soldier who shot and killed an armed BLM-Antifa protester in Austin in July 2020 was indicted on a murder charge in 2021.
Perry’s lawyer, Clint Broden, argued his client, who was driving Uber when rioters mobbed his car, was acting in self-defense after the BLM activist, Garrett Foster pointed a gun at him.
“It is important to note that the standard of proof required for an indictment is significantly less than the standard of proof required for a conviction,” Perry’s lawyer said in a statement.
Shortly before he was shot dead, Garrett Foster was seen on video explaining he brought an AK-47 to deal with the “pussies” who oppose him.

President Donald Trump has reportedly initiated the formal vetting process for potential vice presidential candidates.
Sources close to NBC News reveal that a select group of high-profile conservatives has been approached to submit vetting paperwork.
Former chairwoman of the Tea Party Express, Amy Kramer, wrote on X that among those who have been approached by the campaign for vetting paperwork include:
?
JUST IN:
Team Trump has sent VP vetting paperwork to the following people…
Doug Burgum
Ben Carson
Byron Donalds
Marco Rubio
Tim Scott
Elise Stefanik
J.D. Vance
— Amy Kremer (@AmyKremer) June 6, 2024
According to NBC, citing one source, Trump’s vice presidential search is focused primarily on four leading candidates: North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum and Senators Marco Rubio of Florida, Tim Scott of South Carolina, and JD Vance of Ohio. Another source mentioned a three-way contest among Burgum, Rubio, and Vance.
More from the news outlet:
It’s unclear, though, who all has been asked to provide vetting details that could rule them in or out. Burgum, who has been spending more time with Trump in recent weeks, is among those who have received a request, said one source familiar with the ask. Advisers to Burgum and other would-be running mates declined or did not respond to requests for comment this week.
Sources plugged into conversations about the search cautioned that Trump is working from a fluid shortlist that at times includes more than a half-dozen names. Additions, subtractions and the emergence of dark-horse candidates remain possible.
Others who have been mentioned as prospective running mates include South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, Reps. Elise Stefanik of New York and Byron Donalds of Florida and Ben Carson, who served as the Trump administration’s Housing and Urban Development secretary.
The discreet outreach by campaign officials picked up pace last month, even as Trump was embroiled in his criminal hush-money trial, ABC reported.
“Anyone claiming to know who or when President Trump will choose his VP is lying, unless the person is named Donald J. Trump,” stated Brian Hughes, a senior adviser to the Trump campaign.
According to AP, Trump plans to make his VP announcement closer to the Republican National Convention, scheduled for July.
President Trump has mentioned Tim Scott twice this year.
In a February 2024 interview with Maria Bartiromo, Trump discussed his selection criteria for a vice-presidential candidate.
When asked by Bartiromo about who he is considering for the role, Trump spoke highly of Tim Scott, praising him for his recent performances in defending Trump’s policies and positions.
“You know, I called Tim Scott, and I told him you’re a much better candidate for me than you are for yourself,” Trump said.
He further complimented Scott, saying, “When I watched Tim, he was fine, he was good, but he was very low-key… I watched him in the last week standing up for me, fighting for me. And I said: you are a much better person for me than you are for yourself. He’s been a real tiger. He’s been incredible.”
During his town hall on Fox News, he praised Senator Tim Scott, who was in the audience, for his support and effectiveness.
“Well, always the first quality has to be somebody that you think will be a good president because if something should happen, you have to have somebody that’s going to be a great president. A lot of people are talking about that gentleman right over there [Tim Scott]. He has been much better for me than he was for himself. I watched his campaign, and he doesn’t like talking about himself, but, boy, does he talk about Trump. I called him. I said, “Tim, you’re better for me than you were for yourself.” He’s a fantastic person,” Trump said.
Last month, Senator Tim Scott fueled speculation about his potential vice-presidential candidacy alongside former President Donald Trump in the upcoming presidential election.
During an interview with Eric Bolling, Scott teases that he could be Trump’s no. 2.
“Let me put it this way. Senator, I would love to moderate a debate with you, but I have a hunch that there might be a vice-presidential debate. I don’t know, maybe Kamala Harris will be debating Senator Tim Scott on that one, and I would be honored to moderate that one,” said Bolling.
“I hear there’s a debate in July. If you’re the guy moderating, maybe I’ll be talking to you. We’ll see what happens,” Scott said.
“You and I both agree that America is the greatest country because anyone from anywhere can rise to the place of having this conversation. I thank God that we, the United States of America, will continue to be the greatest land on the planet, but we need a new president, and that’s Donald Trump,” Scott added.
Bolling then asked again to confirm, “And a new vice president, and is it you?”
Scott responded, “We’ll see. We’ll see.”

There’s a memorable quote by boxing legend Mike Tyson that says “Social media made y’all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.”
That’s exactly the case, as people breach the boundary of free speech and feel comfortable posting idiotic, offensive and even criminal things, thinking they are safe behind their screens.
Until, of course, they are not.
A wild video has surfaced showing an enraged Spanish father punching a comedian on stage for making a vile, unacceptable sexualized joke about his 3-month-old son on social media.
Little did leftist comedian Jaime Caravaca know that retribution was on its way.
In the middle of his set in Madrid on Monday night, the enraged dad, Alberto Pugilato, stormed the stage and punched him in the head.
New York Post reported:
“The on-stage violence erupted after Caravaca had responded to a photo that Pugilato — a right-wing activist and musician — had posted of his baby over the weekend on X with the caption, ‘Pride and joy’.
‘Nothing and no one can prevent the possibility that he is gay and when he grows up he gets tired of sucking black c–k,’ Caravaca tweeted back, according to a since-deleted screenshot being circulated online.
Pugilato quickly fired back, ‘I assure you that you are going to apologize for what you said about my 3-month-old son and you will discover that real life is not Twitter’.”
Those were not idle words, because Pugilato jumped on stage during Caravaca’s monologue and landed a couple of blows on his head.
“’Do you think my son was going to eat a black man’s d–k? At 3 months? What now? Tell me to my face, here and now’, he added.”
The comedian later addressed the onstage attack, tweeting that he’d received death threats, and apologized – as the outraged father had predicted.
Parte inferior do formulário
Pugilato responded to the post and said he accepted the comedian’s apology.
“’I defend freedom of expression in the same way that I defend the right to respond. I do not wish you any harm and I hope this helps others understand that children are sacred. All the best’, he tweeted.”

A Cleveland, Ohio woman with a rap sheet stabbed a woman and her toddler in a grocery store parking lot on Tuesday.
The 38-year-old mother survived but her 3-year-old son died from his injuries.
Bionca Ellis, 32, grabbed a knife from a thrift store and followed Margot Wood and her toddler son Julian Wood around in the grocery store before stabbing them in a Giant Eagle parking lot in North Olmstead.
Authorities called the stabbing a “random” attack.
“The investigation into the motive in this attack is still ongoing, but everything learned thus far points that this was a random act of violence,” police said.

Bionca Ellis was arrested on May 30 for a probation violation but she was released.
“According to Det. Sgt. Beck, Ellis was arrested May 30 after officers investigating an incident at Walmart discovered she was wanted for a probation violation.” – WOIO reported.
Ellis was charged last year with stealing from a Walmart.
According to WOIO, Ellis was charged with aggravated murder in connection with the fata stabbing and is being held on a $1 million bond. Additional charges are pending.
WOIO reported:
The 3-year-old boy who was stabbed at the Giant Eagle Monday afternoon has died from his injuries, according to the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner. He was identified as Julian Wood.
The stabbing happened just after 3 p.m. in the grocery store parking lot on Lorain Road in North Olmsted.

As we approach another election cycle, the World Health Organization (WHO) has once again issued a warning about a new strain of bird flu, H5N2, that has apparently jumped to humans.
The announcement comes following the death of a 59-year-old man in Mexico, who was reportedly infected with this strain. However, given the timing and the details surrounding this case, it’s hard not to question whether we’re dealing with another episode of fear-mongering or a genuine public health concern.
The WHO’s press release paints a grim picture: a man with multiple underlying health conditions, bedridden for weeks before developing acute symptoms, tragically succumbs to this new strain of bird flu. Yet, it also states that the risk to the general population is assessed as low. So why the dramatic announcement and the global alert?
“On 23 May 2024, the Mexico IHR NFP reported to PAHO/WHO a confirmed case of human infection with avian influenza A(H5N2) virus detected in a 59-year-old resident of the State of Mexico who was hospitalized in Mexico City and had no history of exposure to poultry or other animals. The case had multiple underlying medical conditions. The case’s relatives reported that the case had already been bedridden for three weeks, for other reasons, prior to the onset of acute symptoms,” according to WHO.
The man’s death is undoubtedly tragic, but it’s important to remember that he was already severely ill before contracting this virus. Moreover, no other cases have been reported during the epidemiological investigation.
Out of 17 contacts identified and monitored at the hospital where the patient died, only one reported a minor symptom – a runny nose. Furthermore, twelve additional contacts near the patient’s residence were tested and all found negative for SARS-CoV-2, influenza A and influenza B.
It is also worth noting that this particular strain of bird flu was found in poultry farms in Mexico as early as March 2024. Yet, there has been no established link between these outbreaks and the human case reported by WHO.
Read the rest of the press release:
On 17 April, the case developed fever, shortness of breath, diarrhoea, nausea and general malaise. On 24 April, the case sought medical attention, was hospitalized at the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases “Ismael Cosio Villegas” (INER per its acronym in Spanish) and died the same day due to complications of his condition.
Results from Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) of a respiratory sample collected and tested at INER on 24 April indicated a non-subtypeable influenza A virus. On 8 May, the sample was sent for sequencing to the Laboratory of Molecular Biology of Emerging Diseases Center for Research in Infectious Diseases (CIENI per its acronym in Spanish) of INER, which indicated that the sample was positive for influenza A(H5N2). On 20 May, the sample was received at the Institute of Epidemiological Diagnosis and Reference (InDRE per its acronym in Spanish) of the Mexico National Influenza Centre, for analysis by RT-PCR, obtaining a positive result for influenza A. On 22 May, sequencing of the sample confirmed the influenza subtype was A(H5N2).
No further cases were reported during the epidemiological investigation. Of the 17 contacts identified and monitored at the hospital where the case died, one reported a runny nose between 28 and 29 April. Samples taken from these hospital contacts between 27 and 29 May tested negative for influenza and SARS-CoV 2. Twelve additional contacts (seven symptomatic and five asymptomatic) were identified near the case’s residence. Samples of pharyngeal exudate, nasopharyngeal swabs and serum were obtained from these individuals. On 28 May, the InDRE reported that all twelve samples from contacts near the patient’s residence tested negative for SARS-CoV-2, influenza A and influenza B, as determined by RT-PCR. The results of the serological samples are pending.
In March 2024, a high pathogenicity avian influenza A(H5N2) outbreak was detected in a backyard poultry farm in the state of Michoacán, which borders the State of Mexico where the case was residing
Additionally, in March 2024, an outbreak of low pathogenicity avian influenza (LPAI) A(H5N2) was identified in poultry in Texcoco, State of Mexico, and a second outbreak of LPAI A(H5N2) in April in the municipality of Temascalapa in the same state. Thus far, it has not been possible to establish if this human case is related to the recent poultry outbreaks (1).
A study describing the continuous circulation of low pathogenicity avian influenza H5N2 viruses in Mexico and spread to several other countries was published in 2022 (2).

A disturbing story involving a former highly-decorated British Royal Marine has played out for the last seven months and it’s only now becoming public knowledge.
Lance Corporal Matt Croucher, 40, was thrown into a cramped, unsanitary Dubai prison and after release had his passport confiscated, leaving him stranded in the UAE.
But, his family and friends allege, he has been told next to nothing about the case against him.
Croucher received the George Cross after jumping on a Taliban grenade to save his colleagues, during a combat patrol in Afghanistan.
The lance corporal survived the blast, with his backpack and armored vest taking the brunt of the shrapnel.
Croucher, who is now a security consultant based out of the UK, lived in Dubai from 2014 to 2021, when he was working with authorities on ‘security related matters’.
He was arrested back November 4, accused of ‘intentionally and illegally accessing a telecommunications network’.
Who the authorities claim he was spying on, and who he was supposedly working for, they have reportedly not publicly said.
Daily Mail reported:
“Officials reportedly obtained an electronic device, which Croucher claimed was used in his day-to-day job for security penetration testing, after obtaining a warrant to search where he was living.
He was forced to sleep on the floor while in prison as it was so overcrowded, according to a close friend who added he was also made to eat a ‘primitive meal of rice and chicken twice a day with very unsanitary amenities’.
The friend claimed he was interrogated by Dubai’s police Criminal Investigation Department for six hours, during which he was questioned about his role within the UK’s Ministry of Defense and intelligence services.”
After four days in prison, Croucher was but his phone, passport and internet banking access device remain all confiscated, so he is now stuck in the country with no money.
He has to weekly report to the Al Barsha police station, were continuously tell him that ‘his situation will be resolved next week’.
His family says that the UK Foreign Office has been useless.
Croucher’s friend: “‘He was only due to be passing through the country for a few days to catch up with friends before returning to the UK.’
[…] A UK Foreign Office spokesperson said: ‘We are supporting a British man in the UAE and are in contact with the local authorities’.”

O’Keefe Media Group released a new video on Wednesday, exposing the mainstream media with Nick Cirone, a producer and booker from ABC News’ Good Morning America, who gives a tell-all on how they purposefully give Biden and the Democrats good press but smear and slant their coverage of Trump and “right-wing crazies” negatively.
This is something that we all know is true, but they refuse to admit it. Even Cirone seemingly has no idea that what they’re doing is wrong, claiming that “the truth, very overwhelmingly, has a liberal bias.”
Good Morning America is hosted by former Bill Clinton henchman George Stephanopoulos, who frequently goes off on rants against President Trump.
“It’s very clear” that Stephanopoulos “f*cking hates [Trump],” says Cirone. “If I had to guess, just based on what I know about him and what I hear him say on the air, he clearly thinks the guy’s deranged.”
Cirone states, “Obviously, we’re covering [news] in a neutral kind of a way. We’re not partisan.” However, he continues, “When we’re talking about a particular story, sure, if it’s like something that’s clearly positive for Biden, we’re going to talk about that story, but it’s not like we’re going to say, you guys all should vote for Biden because of it.” In regard to coverage of President Trump, “a lot of what he does is very clearly bad,” and “sometimes the truth has a very clear slant in one direction,” says Cirone, while agreeing with the undercover journalist that they don’t need to try to paint Trump in a bad light.
Ironically, however, as Cirone notes, George Stephanopoulos, based on his on-air comments, makes it “very clear” that he “f*cking hates [Trump].”
Cirone also tells the journalist that they will bring on guests who “can say all they want,” including, “This guy is a f*cking evil piece of sh*t.” Cirone continues, “But… It’s not appropriate for it to be coming from our reporters.”
He agrees that “in a lot of cases,” his job is to “pick certain guests to come onto the show that will specifically highlight how sh*tty Trump is.“.
Still, Cirone says that places like Fox News are the “propaganda machines.”
At one point, Cirone actually says, “We’re supposed to present the truth… The truth very overwhelmingly has a liberal bias.”
When asked how his statements would outrage Republicans, Christians, and Trump supporters, Cirone responded, “Absolutely, but they’re not based in reality for the most part anyway.” He continues, “Those kinds of people are not necessarily based in reality,” but instead, “ideological dogma, you know, bigotry, hatred, ignorance.”
“I find right-wing crazies so fascinating on like a scholarly level… Like, I’m just like baffled about how they move through life operating on those, you know, on that mindset.”
The same could be said for left-wing crazies who look at everything as bigoted, anti-trans, and racist.
While on one of James O’Keefe’s undercover cameras, Cirone even mentioned O’Keefe and the Project Veritas organization, which O’Keefe founded, and accused them of producing “misinformation” while calling O’Keefe “irrelevant.”
O’Keefe then called Cirone for comment on his statements, but he hung up!
Watch below via O’Keefe Media Group:
BREAKING: @GMA Producer Nick Cirone: “Sometimes the truth has a very clear slant in one direction.”
Cirone admits the show selects stories and uses contributors to align with their bias. He adds needing to “watch out for” James O’Keefe taking footage “out of context,” unaware he’s speaking to O’Keefe’s undercover journalist.

A Bend, Oregon, police officer was caught on video telling a concerned father that it is not a crime for individuals to expose themselves to children, as long as it is not for sexual gratification.
The shocking exchange, captured on video by TikTok user @sidemoneytom, reveals a disturbing interpretation of Oregon’s public decency laws.
The father explained that an individual had trespassed onto his property completely naked and approached his young child. Reacting immediately, he shielded his child’s eyes from the naked trespasser and immediately dialed 911, expecting swift action against the individual for indecent exposure.
However, the response he received from the attending officer was shocking. In the recorded conversation, the officer can be heard stating that while trespassing is a crime, there are no laws in Oregon against “the actual nudity portion of it.”
The father expressed his disbelief at the officer’s response.
In the video, the father is heard asking incredulously, “So you can expose yourself to children in Oregon.”
The officer’s response is shocking, “Again, if you’re not doing it for sexual gratification or the gratification of somebody else, yes, you are allowed to walk around in public naked.”
The father’s outrage is palpable as he recounts the incident. He states: “So a naked person came up onto my property here, approached my two-year-old kid completely naked… At what point did this become a normal and acceptable thing to do? The cops will literally do nothing about it. They’re basically saying we have to wait for that person to do something more serious to your kid before we can intervene.”
The Bend Police Department issued a statement to The Gateway Pundit in response to concerns raised by a post circulating on social media platforms TikTok and X.
In their statement, the Bend Police Department is urging concerned citizens to channel their frustration into action by contacting the Oregon Legislature to advocate for changes to these public indecency laws.
“We’ve received many messages of concern about a post that has appeared on TikTok and X, and we want to make sure that our community has accurate information about the incident. As is often the case when short clips are shared on the internet, context can sometimes be missing.
At approximately 3:15 p.m. on Tuesday, June 4, officers responded to a caller reporting suspicious circumstances in the 1200 block of NW Knoxville Boulevard. The caller reported that a nude woman had walked up to the front of his home, where he and his child were present. When adults at the residence confronted her, she walked away.
Two of our officers responded to the incident. Officers trespassed the 32-year-old woman from the family’s property. She appeared to be experiencing a mental health crisis. If she returns to the property, she will be arrested.
In Oregon, being naked in public is not a crime. Both public indecency (ORS 163.465) and private indecency (ORS 163.467) have a required element of “intent to arouse.” That was not the case in this incident.
We understand the homeowner’s concern – it’s always off-putting when someone acting strangely is on your property, especially if your kids are present.
However, this is a state law, and so if you have concerns about Oregon’s public indecency laws, we would recommend you contact the Oregon Legislature to share your concerns.
Our Department has been accused of supporting pedophilia, and obviously that is not the case – we take crimes against children very seriously. In fact, our Department has an entire detective unit focused on investigating and holding accountable those who commit crimes against children.
Our officers accurately applied state law and properly trespassed the woman from the property, and we are proud of the work they do each day to keep our community safe.”

The New York City Police Department (NYPD) is reportedly preparing to revoke former President Donald Trump’s license to carry a gun, a senior police told far-left CNN.
Trump’s New York concealed carry license was quietly suspended on April 1, 2023, following his indictment on sham charges in New York. Two of the three pistols he was licensed to carry were turned over to the NYPD on March 31, 2023. The third gun listed on Trump’s license was “lawfully moved to Florida,” according to the same source.
After Trump was convicted of 34 felonies on May 30, 2024, in made-up crimes, he could potentially be in violation of multiple state and federal laws if he still possesses that third gun in Florida.
Under federal law, specifically the Gun Control Act of 1968, it is illegal for anyone who has been convicted of a felony to own or possess a firearm or ammunition.
The NYPD’s Legal Bureau is set to complete an investigation “that will likely lead to revocation of his license,” the senior police official said. However, Trump retains the right to seek a hearing challenging the revocation, per CNN.
The leftist news outlet added:
Trump has had a license from the NYPD to carry a concealed firearm for more than a decade, according to multiple law enforcement sources, but because Trump’s application came with a request for confidentiality, they are exempt from public records requests, according to the NYPD’s guidelines and New York state law.
The suspension and pending revocation of his carry license suggests that he maintained his license the entire time of his presidency and after, until he was charged with multiple felonies for falsifying business records in March 2023.
As a former president, Trump has full-time US Secret Service protection.

In 2023, The Gateway Pundit reported that the Biden Regime approved the nation’s first ‘congestion pricing’ tolling plan for New York to reduce traffic and help the environment.
“The public transit authority hasn’t determined how much to charge drivers, but has considered fares ranging from $9 to $23 for passenger vehicles and between $12 and $82 for trucks. The scenarios contemplate different combinations of potential discounts, credits, and exemptions,” Politico reported.
New York’s Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul’s spox John Lindsay cheered the approval saying at the time, “Governor Hochul is committed to implementing congestion pricing to reduce traffic, improve air quality, and support our public transit system. We’ve worked closely with partners across government and with community members over the last four years to develop a plan that will achieve these goals.”
But in an economy that has been gutted, destroyed, and ravaged by failed Democrat policies, Hochul was forced to admit she has asked top officials at the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to “pause” the implementation of the plan indefinitely.
On Wednesday Hochul was forced to walk back the plan after concerns “over the impact of the tolls on working people.”
“Circumstances have changed and we must respond to the facts on the ground and not the rhetoric of five years ago,” she said.
The decision by Hochul leaves a host of unanswered questions, including how the MTA will make up the expected annual $1 billion in revenue. The money would have gone to a larger $15 billion capital plan for public transportation improvements.
Watch:
Kathy Hochul is the worst Governor in NY history. There were already a million reasons, but now she wants to delay her new congestion tax just to get through the election and then put the screws to voters immediately afterwards. NYers need to stop voting for this crap! https://t.co/nPUvLCMXRu

In an important election year, where President Donald Trump drew over 25,000 to his rally in the Bronx, it seems to be less about Americans suffering and more about pandering to voters.
Hochul is just now realizing that 75% of New Yorkers are vehemently against congestion pricing.
Thing is, if it wasn’t an election year, she wouldn’t care who was opposed. But because some congressional dems might be in trouble, she’s considering a delay to the program — until… https://t.co/nGLys88sBb

Fani Willis’ trial against Trump is most certainly not happening before the 2024 election!
The Georgia Court of Appeals on Wednesday halted all proceedings in Trump’s RICO case until the court rules on the effort to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
“The proceedings below in the Superior Court of Fulton County are hereby stayed pending the outcome of these appeals,” the order read.
President Trump’s appeal hearing to disqualify Fulton Country District Attorney Fani Willis was tentatively set for October 4th.
Last month the Georgia Court of Appeals agreed to review President Donald Trump’s appeal to disqualify disgraced Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the sham RICO case against him.
“Upon consideration of the Application for Interlocutory Appeal, it is ordered that it be hereby GRANTED. The Appellant may file a Notice of Appeal within 10 days of the date of this order. The Clerk of Superior Court is directed to include a copy of this order in the record transmitted to the Court of Appeals,” the Court said.
In March Georgia Judge Scott McAfee ruled that crooked and dishonest Fani Willis will be allowed to remain on the Trump case.
Judge McAfee however did force Fani’s lover Nathan Wade to be removed from the case. Wade and Willis committed the same crime of perjury during their testimony. The conflicted Judge McAfee did not have the guts to follow the law and do the right thing and disqualify both of the lovebirds.
In March Judge McAfee quashed 6 counts in Fani Willis’ indictment – including 3 counts against President Trump.
Two other lawfare cases against President Trump were also postponed and likely won’t take place until after the 2024 election.
Jack Smith’s classified documents case against Trump was indefinitely postponed by Judge Aileen Cannon.
Jack Smith’s January 6 case in DC is currently on hold as we await a decision from the US Supreme Court related to Trump’s presidential immunity claims.

Michigan’s Democrat Attorney General Dana Nessel is the top law enforcement officer in the state. Unfortunately, for the lawfare queen, the case of her career, which involves charging 15 MI GOP electors with 8 felonies each, appears to be imploding.
If Michigan’s Democrat attorney general is successful with her politically-motivated witch hunt against the Trump-supporting electors, and they are found guilty of all 8 felony charges, it would be enough to send each member of the group, which consists of primarily senior citizens, to prison for life.
Unfortunately for the lawfare queen of Michigan, after three days of testimony by AG Nessel’s lead investigator, it is becoming increasingly clear that AG Nessel, or someone in her office, selected the wrong cop to investigate the manufactured crimes against the MI Republican electors.
On Friday, MI GOP elector James Renner, who previously worked in the security division of the Michigan State Police Department, testified in front of Judge Kristen Simmons. During his testimony, Mr. Renner revealed that he had agreed to a plea deal several months ago in return for his testimony in the case against his fellow GOP electors. According to Mr. Renner, his lawyers were in discussion with the attorney general’s office even before the AG’s office filed formal charges against 15 of his fellow GOP electors. Unfortunately for the politically-motivated MI Attorney General’s office, Mr. Renner’s testimony only helped his fellow electors, as he confirmed under oath that he believed on December 14, 2020, when he signed the alternate slate of electoral votes, that the election was stolen from President Trump. He also told the defense lawyers that he continues to hold the same belief today.
On Monday, while under oath in the pre-trial case against 5 of the 15 electors in AG Nessel’s lawfare case, Nessel’s top cop, Agent Howard Shock, was brutally cross-examined by MI GOP Elector Marian Sheridan’s lawyer, John Freeman, who effectively shredded his case against his client, and by extension, all of the electors who’ve been charged in Nessel’s lawfare case.
Attorney John Freeman explores whether or not the case against the electors is politically motivated
Mr. Freeman began his questioning of Attorney General Agent Howard Shock by asking if he had any previous experience in investigating a case that involved more than ten suspects. When Agent Shock responded that he did not, Marian Sheridan’s attorney asked why the AG’s office felt he was qualified to “lead this investigation?” Freeman asked Shock, who previously worked for a municipal police department, about the difference in working for a politically motivated Attorney General’s office headed by a partisan Democrat.
Assistant Attorney General Logan quickly objected to Freeman’s line of questioning, and to her credit, Judge Kristen Simmons allowed the question of Agent Shock by Marian Sheridan’s attorney to be answered. Freeman asked Shock, “Do you ever brief the attorney general on what’s going on in this case?” Shock replied, “Yes.” After Assistant AG LaDonna challenged Freeman, the judge allowed Mr. Freeman to continue with his line of questioning after he explained the public statements made by AG Nessel, where she criticized the pace of the case. Judge Simmons’s rebuke of AG Nessel was swift and pointed, “Any statements made about the pace of this case.
Clearly, I don’t see how they are relevant. It’s 16 co-defendants that she decided to bring. So, how long does she think that’s gonna take? They all have the right to cross-examine, and they all have the right to bring their own witnesses should they want to do that.
It’s 16 co-defendants that can’t all fit in one courtroom! So I don’t know how long that’s supposed to take. Maybe we should’ve cleared our entire year in advance and prioritized this case, but there’s other people who have a right to have their cases heard because they’re sitting in custody, and their cases take priority over this case.”
Attorney John Freeman then asked AG Nessel’s lead investigator about their key witness, James Renner, the GOP elector turned witness for the defense, who previously testified that there were about 30 people in the basement of the MI GOP headquarters in Lansing when the alternate slate of electoral votes was signed on December 14, 2020.
Mr. Renner stated that he could identify at least 15 of the individuals in the basement as fellow electors. Additionally, he stated that he could identify some of the individuals as attorneys for the Trump team and some as MI GOP officials. Mr. Renner admitted that he could not identify approximately 10 of the “white men” in the room.
Through cross-examination, Mr. Freeman was able to get the lead AG investigator in the case against the Trump electors to admit that he didn’t bother to subpoena or obtain a search warrant for surveillance of the meeting that took place in the basement of the MI GOP headquarters to determine who the identity of the additional 10 “white males” in the room.
Freeman asked Agent Shock why, if the basement of the MI GOP headquarters is considered the “scene of the crime,” why he didn’t bother to secure the video surveillance footage from inside or outside of the building to determine who was at the scene of the crime.
In a stunning example of his incompetence, whether intended or because of sloppy work, Agent Shock stated that he was unable to answer why he didn’t try to get any surveillance footage from the so-called scene of the crime.
At one point in Agent Shock’s testimony on Tuesday, things were going so badly for Agent Shock that the assistant attorney general admitted to the judge that she was attempting to get him to change his testimony.
After Shock testified that the elector’s strategy was intended to cause a “pause” in the electoral process, Judge Simmons interrupted the cross-examination to ask him about the so-called “crime” that was allegedly committed, “How is it that citizens taking efforts to cause their legislators to pause a process is a crime?” Judge Simmons asked.
The judge asked Shock to explain if the alternate slate of electoral votes cast by the GOP electors was intended to get VP Pence to accept their slate of electoral votes over the Democratic slate of electoral votes.
Several defense lawyers jumped up to question Assistant Attorney General LaDonna Logan, one of the officials in AG Nessel’s office who reportedly approved the ridiculous charges against the 16 GOP electors, as she attempted to convince her witness, Agent Shock, to revise his statement about his claim about the “pause” in the electoral process.
When the judge accused Logan of trying to impeach her own witness by encouraging him to change his previous testimony, she replied, “I’m allowed to impeach my own witness.” Judge Simmons, who has been very fair in this case, snapped back, “Impeach away. Impeach away,” adding, “That just discredits him further and further.”
It wasn’t the first time Judge Simmons mocked the credibility of Nessel’s dirty cop, who sat in the courtroom for multiple days trying to convince the judge that she should recommend the case against the mostly senior citizen electors, which would send them to jail for life if convicted of all 8 felony charges, should be heard by a jury in a separate trial.
On Monday, Judge Simmons reminded the court that AG Nessel’s lead investigator hadn’t given a “great presentation” after days of bumbling through answers that he was either unable to provide the defense lawyers or couldn’t answer because he didn’t appear to have his notes available for his testimony.
In what appeared to be a blatant lie under oath by Attorney Nessel’s lead investigative agent in the MI GOP electors case, he was asked on Tuesday by Attorney John Freeman if Agent Shock previously testified that there were “no statements that the electors were being told what to do on December 14, 2020,” by the Trump attorneys.
Agent Shock answered, “Yes.” Mr. Freeman shot back at the AG’s top cop, “That’s a lie, isn’t it?” Shock bumbled, knowing now that there are emails between Trump Attorney Chesboro and Marian Sheridan where he gave specific instructions about how to cast their backup slate of electoral votes for Trump.
Mr. Freeman drilled down further on the witness, reminding Agent Shock of a statement he made in his affidavit about Trump Attorney Shaun Flynn talking to the electors about becoming an alternate slate of electors. “Even your boss (Dana Nessel) believes that the electors believed that they were doing something that was okay. Isn’t that fair to say?” Mr. Freeman stated.
Assistant AG LaDonna Logan immediately jumped in and objected to Attorney Freeman’s statement, citing “relevance” and adding that Attorney General Nessel’s opinion on the case “doesn’t matter.” The judge overruled the statement and appeared to admonish her as she reminded the assistant attorney general that her boss brought the case against the 16 electors and that the assistant attorney general was “acting as her agent” in court.
Mr. Freeman then hit a home run when he made the lead investigator admit that his boss, the AG of MI, had gone on the public record to say that “these electors believed what they were doing was okay.” “Yet, here we are today, and you’re maintaining that they had some criminal intent to defraud! That directly contradicts what your boss Dana Nessel has said, correct?” he asked. “Yes,” said Agent Shock.
Watch:
This case started as a joke and is turning into an even bigger joke the longer it drags out. Like the Trump case in NYC, this case will likely backfire on Democrats, as each day, the basis of this case becomes more obvious. This case is about a witch hunt. It’s about taking out President Trump’s most respected leaders in each swing state where similar charges have been filed against electors.
When will the United States Congress begin to investigate if these cases against the GOP Trump electors and against Trump’s lawyers were coordinated between Attornies General in critical must-win swing states as a way to affect the outcome of the presidential election in 2024?

Guest post by Ahmad Massoud
The Taliban seized power in Kabul almost three years ago, and the disasters are already considerable. The population is malnourished and even starving. The country has no government and is in a state of total anarchy.
Afghanistan has become a pariah state and a sanctuary for regional and international terrorism. The economy is in a catastrophic state, the healthcare system is deplorable, women are erased from public life, the education system is devalued, and girls’ education is reduced to nothing. Basically, gender and ethnic apartheid reign the country today.
Terrorists continue to commit crimes, murder, and stalk citizens in their homes. They even organized several attacks against me, all of which were fortunately thwarted thanks to our networks and trusted men.
These obscurantists from another era also plunder the properties of the people of Afghanistan, occupy houses, loot businesses in contempt of all local customs and principles, not to mention international law.
Ethnic cleansing operations have clearly taken place in Kabul, Daykundi, Takhar, Faryab, the Kandahar region, and the Andarab district. How many war crimes will have to be counted before the international community finally agrees to react?
The evidence is there, irrefutable, patiently collected and painstakingly verified. The risk that terrorism supported by the Taliban will spill over their borders and inspire other regional and international extremist groups has already started. History is full of lessons in this regard, which show that when a geographical base is established, when a movement obtains a vast territorial base, it creates emulators.
When Daesh seized Raqqa in Syria and then Mosul in Iraq in 2014, the terrorist organization attracted thousands of extremists from all over the world, including Western countries.
But hope remains. Hope for a better world, hope for a Muslim world free of the imposters who impose extremism and distort the true convictions and values of Islam. I am convinced that the aspirations of the people of Afghanistan for freedom, peace, and democracy will one day be realized. It is impossible for the yoke of terror and totalitarianism to prevail in the long term. History has demonstrated this on many occasions.
There is always a turning point in history when a dictatorship collapses, and this will soon be the case in Afghanistan. Our future can only be freedom in democracy and pluralism.
The people of Afghanistan and the international community now know that the Taliban’s exercise of power and their radical Islamism are in total contradiction with the teachings of Islam, and that they have distorted its holy precepts to nurture extremism.
Although over the last twenty years, the people of Afghanistan have undergone notable changes, particularly in education, the brutal policies applied by the Taliban terrorist group prove that they have changed neither their dogmas nor their objectives.
The Taliban’s determination to establish a regime based on an erroneous and abusive interpretation of Islam makes it impossible to establish an inclusive and democratic political system in Afghanistan’s diverse society. It is, in fact, a criminal syndicate, as I argued in my bachelor’s thesis, that hides its face behind a hypothetical intention to return to religion, while its aim is to confiscate power for its own benefit and secure its gains and privileges, including royalties from drug trafficking.
Opponents of their politico-religious line are massacred or at best thrown into prison, and ethnic, sectarian, and religious groups such as the Hazaras, Twelver and Ismaili Shias, Sikhs, and Hindus are in no way protected from attacks and bombings by the Taliban or their henchmen and extremist merchants. In fact, it is quite the contrary.
The attack on worshippers at the Sayed Abad mosque in Kunduz, at mosques in Kabul, Kandahar, and Balkh, and the massacre of Hazara children at the Kaaj school are all crimes committed by the Taliban against humanity.
Subjugation and the prohibition of rationality and critical thought are intrinsic to the Taliban ideological system. In this dark nebula, all Muslims are obliged to consider the hypothetical and self-proclaimed commander of the believers, the so-called supreme leader of the Taliban, as the shadow of God on Earth.
Whereas, as we have seen, the essential question is whether this terrorist group’s actions of imposing their demands on the citizens of Afghanistan are in line with the very essence of Muslim doctrine. Coercion is intended to conceal this gross deception.
Clearly, the exercise of domination and the sanctification of violence to ensure an oppressive order can only lead to tyranny, unlike a system based on the will of the people. And tyranny only serves to engender all manner of corruption and destruction within society.
Among the many benevolent theories and ideas that have been propounded to curb despotism throughout history, democracy is the only way to guarantee the legitimacy of a government by ensuring democratic rights, justice, and values. The Taliban condemn the democratic system all the more because they fear the electoral process and the verdict of the ballot box.
Hope is also the clandestine action of women, mothers, teachers. Braving many dangers, they meet, occasionally protest, defy the regime, organize secret meetings, and set up parallel education to provide a proper education for girls.
Despite the near certainty that the Ministry of the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice will intervene to disperse any gathering, Afghanistan’s women regularly take to the streets to protest against the restrictions imposed on freedoms. I admire their action all the more as most of these women have very little means and are often deprived of a job because of the prohibitions put in place by the Taliban’s iniquitous power.
The actions of our resistance forces and the civil society are converging. As every day passes our operations are increasing in precision and intensity. Many local Taliban commanders and repentant Taliban have joined the National Resistance Front.
Every link of the population is important, in urban as well as rural areas, and creates connections between the military and the civilian. Little by little, we forged relationships, even underground, with personalities from different ethnic and religious groups, women’s rights activists, civil society groups, human rights defenders, intellectuals, political figures, party leaders, and former parliamentarians.
The physiognomy of the resistance has thus completely changed in the space of a few months, with ramifications on the international scene.
Ahmad Massoud, an ethnic Tajik from Northern Afghanistan, is the leader of the National Resistance Front (NRF) of Afghanistan. Mr. Massoud is the son of the late anti-soviet and revolutionary commander, Ahmad Shah Massoud. Following the Taliban’s takeover on August 15, 2021, Ahmad created the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan to struggle for justice and freedom. According to NRF’s strategy, they are struggling for a democratic, decentralized and pluralistic Afghanistan where all citizens enjoy equal rights regardless of their ethnicity, religious beliefs, and gender.
His new book, The Name of My Father: Struggling for Freedom in Afghanistan, details his part in the resistance against the Taliban, his father’s assassination, Joe Biden’s foreign policy mistakes in Afghanistan, and what the future looks like for the country.
