Former GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley was dismissed as “pathetic” for saying Wednesday she plans to support former President Donald Trump over President Joe Biden in the general election come November, with erstwhile Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) delivering the character appraisal. “Not a surprise but: Pathetic,” the now CNN commentator wrote, in response to Haley saying she would vote for Trump, as reported by the Hill. His assessment followed other similar appraisals made in media outlets in the hours after she spoke. Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley dropped out of the Republican presidential primary race back in March handing...

Where are the calls for the immediate resignation of FBI Chief Christopher Wray and DOJ Chief/Attorney General Merrick Garland? I woke up this morning expecting to see headlines announcing either the resignations of this country’s top law enforcement officers, or at the very least, the entire GOP House and Senate standing on the U.S. Capitol Building steps demanding their resignation. Yet so far, all I hear is crickets. But didn’t we just find out late yesterday that the FBI authorized the use of “deadly force” in their raid of President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home? A FBI SWAT team was actually prepared...

Doug Burgum was bracing for disaster at the top of the ticket. “The Clintons might be the luckiest family in the world because Bill doesn’t win in 1992 without Ross Perot,” he told a North Dakota radio show eight years ago, “and Hillary doesn’t win in 2016 without Donald Trump.” But Clinton did not fall to Trump that year, and the soundbite from the future governor of North Dakota, a bleak sentiment widespread among Republicans at the time, went largely unnoticed. Until now. Perhaps it won’t mean much. Although Trump is a man who knows how to nurture a grudge,...

(CNN) - The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office made a significant tactical error announcing they were resting their case after calling Michael Cohen as their final witness in the Donald Trump hush money trial. But it’s not because Cohen, a convicted felon and disbarred lawyer, was a bad witness. He actually did pretty well in responding to the prosecution’s warm-up when confronted with his prior bad acts, convictions and bias toward the former president, staying steady on the stand and not losing his cool. But Cohen lost his footing during cross-examination Thursday, where it appeared he omitted important information when recounting...

Former President Donald Trump is set to hold a campaign rally in the South Bronx on Thursday, an audacious statement of intent in a borough that hasn’t backed a Republican for the White House in 100 years. Not since Calvin Coolidge won every Empire State county in 1920 and 1924 has a GOP candidate won the Bronx and Trump is unlikely to break that trend — having failed to reach 10% support in 2016 and barely reaching 15% four years ago. “The park only holds a couple thousand people. So this is certainly not going to be a Wildwood. But...

Californians pay more at the gas pump than residents of any other state in the United States despite Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D-CA) so-called “plan” to crack down on windfall oil profits. “Is Gavin Newsom trying to help Donald Trump?” Is Wall Street Journal’s Allysia Finley question, citing his plan to raise fuel prices in Nevada and Arizona just before the November presidential election. Nevada and Arizona’s gas prices heavily reflect those in California due to them being significantly reliant (90 and 50 percent) on California for their fuel supply. According to recent reports, the California Energy Commission is looking to...

Following former President Donald Trump's complaints that President Joe Biden authorized deadly force during the search of Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in 2022, former GOP Representative Liz Cheney of Wyoming urged Republicans in Congress to overcome "cowardice" for "what you know is right." A court filling was unsealed on Tuesday showing briefing notes for the August 2022 Mar-a-Lago raid, which said: "Law enforcement officers of the Department of Justice [DOJ] may use deadly force when necessary." Trump faces 40 felony charges stemming from the search of his Florida residence in which he's accused of keeping classified documents after leaving the White...

Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 Question: If lethal force guidance for MAL raid is so standard and NBFD—why are we just learning of it now? Why did it take a federal judge (Cannon) to pry it out of DOJ? Why wasn’t it released alongside MAL search warrant?

EVERYONE IN AMERICA Knows things were better under President Trump – no matter what garbage the media is pushing. And EVERYTHING is worse under Joe Biden. The Marxist left is destroying the country. And it’s not likely to get any better as long as Democrats hold on to power. Last week President Donald Trump announced he will hold a rally in South Bronx, New York this Thursday to “highlight the horrendous effects Crooked Joe Biden’s presidency had had on our economy,: according to a statement released by the former president’s campaign Friday. This announcement comes after President Trump delivered remarks...

With an unapologetically anarchic spirit, we’ve defied the establishment by assembling a lineup of speakers who challenge the status quo and champion true freedom. We’re lining up promotions that symbolize our rejection of government control, offering attendees a taste of defiance. The debates, a battleground for radical ideas, will ignite the flames of rebellion in every heart present. And as the establishment trembles, we’ll raise a defiant toast at the reception for our chosen presidential and vice-presidential candidates, heralding the dawn of a new era of individual autonomy and liberty. This convention will stand as a testament to the indomitable...

Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 Spent most of the day at Ft. Pierce federal courthouse to cover two hearings in classified docs case. Special Counsel team's frustration with Judge Aileen Cannon is really evident. And it's glorious. David Harbach, one of Smith's lead prosecutors and usually a cool customer in court, had a series of mini temper tantrums this morning. At times pounding his fist on the podium and clapping his hands in anger to emphasize a point, Harbach was totally unprofessional, demeaning, and petulant. Cannon asked Harbach to "calm down" during one diatribe about accusations DOJ threatened one of the...

We now know with forensic certainty that two frontal headshots and one shot from the rear at a low angle (not from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository) killed JFK. The evidence for these conclusions comes from a new book, The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy: The Final Analysis, that I have recently published with Dr. David W. Mantik, who has a Ph.D. in physics and a medical practice extending over five decades as a radiation oncologist and who has seen the JFK autopsy skull X-rays more than anyone else. Using a densitometer, Dr. Mantik measured...

Agents took many photos inside Melania Trump's room at Mar-a-Lago... FBI authorized agents who were involved in that infamous raid on President Trump's Mar-a-Lago home to use "deadly force" as needed have triggered a resurgence of reports about just what the bureau was seeking there ... Joe Biden had classified documents from his days as senator and vice president, and there was no raid. And Mike Pence had documents from his vice presidency and there was no raid. Perhaps the target was a binder including documents from the government's Crossfire Hurricane .. sponsored by .. Hillary Clinton ... that "missing...

As things stand, Joe Biden will not be on Ohio's general election ballot in November, setting up potentially disastrous down-ballot consequences for Democrats. For months, the president and his party have been pushing the legislature to pass a "fix" that would allow him to make the state deadline in early August. On Wednesday, the Republican-led legislature justifiably told him to pound sand. The fix won’t happen through the legislature, said Ohio House Speaker Jason Stephens, R-Kitts Hill, and Ohio House Minority Leader Allison Russo, D-Upper Arlington, during separate gaggles Tuesday morning. “There’s just not the will to do that from...

The Trump rally in the Bronx obviously has AOC and other nutty libs in quite the panic. She’s quite anxious. AOC told about 10 flat out lies in 30 seconds. How do I know AOC is in a panic? Easy…you never discuss things in the media that don’t concern you. And you certainly would have no reason to spew such absurd lies.

Hodgetwins @hodgetwins Ron DeSantis knew about the raid on Trump and told Merrick Garland "Thanks for the heads up" (Garland to topple Trump. Cyberspace Command reportedly has text messages in which Garland writes, "We're coming," and DeSantis responds, "Thanks for the heads up," timestamped three hours before the FBI swarm illegally and unprecedentedly violated the home of a President of the United States.)

Trump has an obvious and dispositive defense against the Alvin Bragg charges. The Trump Organization ("TO") financial records listed to payments to Michael Cohen as "Legal Expenses". Bragg contends that this was a fraudulent description of the payments, because the payment to Cohen was passed on to Stephanie Clifford's lawyer as consideration for her entering into a non-disclosure agreement ("NDA"). So, Bragg must propose an alternative non-fraudulent description of the payment. If there is no such non-fraudulent description than the TO had no choice but to describe the payments as legal expenses. So, let's consider some alternative descriptions of the...

As is evident to anyone with even half a brain, the Trump trial in New York City is a farce. What many may not know is how Donald Trump has been hunted since the day he declared himself a candidate for President a second time. We shall see the amazing coincidences that have followed since. Joe BidenEven before Trump announced his candidacy for a second term as President Joe Biden was all but ordering Merrick Garland to prosecute Trump. That set in motion a galaxy of actions with the single goal of imprisoning Biden's political opposition all in the name...
