Speculation is growing about the role former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) will play in the 2024 election as President Biden and former President Trump barrel toward a rematch. Cheney has vowed that she’ll do whatever it takes to keep Trump from returning to the White House. She has left the door open to running an independent bid and recently launched her political action committee, the Great Task, after Nikki Haley dropped her long-shot primary challenge against Trump. At the same time, she has said she won’t be a spoiler third-party candidate if it helps Trump — leaving some Democrats curious,...

Republican presidential candidate former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) said Tuesday on “The Hugh Hewitt Show” that former President Donald Trump was “unhinged.” When asked about Trump questioning where her deployed husband was, Haley said, “This is about every military family who sacrifices and knows what it’s like to have their loved one deployed. And this is about a pattern of Donald Trump. I mean, he has said this before where he calls military members suckers or losers. We know that when he was at Arlington Cemetery, he said, ‘What was in it for them?’ He has never even been close...

I don't think Tucker Carlson got what he bargained for in this interview. The interview ran about two hours but most of that was made up of Putin's rambling answers that sometimes went on for 10-20 minutes. To his credit, Carlson started at the most obvious starting point for a discussion with Putin, which is the reasons behind the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Instead of a clear answer he got a 30 minute lecture about the history of the region going back to the 8th century. (snip) Carlson interrupted several times saying he wasn't sure why all of this...

WEST DES MOINES, Iowa — Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida lashed out at the media Monday after networks declared former President Donald Trump the winner before some caucus sites had started voting. “It is absolutely outrageous that the media would participate in election interference by calling the race before tens of thousands of Iowans even had a chance to vote,” said DeSantis spokesman Andrew Romeo. “The media is in the tank for Trump and this is the most egregious example yet.”The news broke at a caucus site here right around the same time a surrogate for Mr. DeSantis had taken...

Ron DeSantis has further alienated the America First conservatives he hoped to win over from Donald Trump’s base by disparaging January 6th protestors, denying they were motivated by patriotism.Speaking at a CNN town hall, the Florida Governor was asked if “the January 6th insurrections display[ed] patriotism, as some of them claim they did” by an audience member.“No, of course not,” DeSantis replied immediately. “I mean, that was not a good day for the country. I think the media has taken that, and I think the left has taken that, and really tried to politicize it, but it was not a...

Jack Poso 🇺🇸 @JackPosobiec BREAKING: Ron DeSantis blames Satanic display on Donald Trump at CNN townhall as Kim Reynolds under fire in Iowa

Former Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger describes himself as politically "homeless," at odds with a party he views as "anti-constitutionalist." He believes former President Donald Trump will be the 2024 Republican nominee — and if that's the case, Kinzinger intends to vote for President Biden. Kinzinger was one of two Republicans to serve on the House select committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot that sought to derail congressional certification of Biden's victory. The other Republican on the committee was Liz Cheney, who says she's considering a third party bid for the White House, although she told CBS "Mornings"...

During an interview with NewsNation aired on Wednesday’s broadcast of “The Hill,” 2024 Republican presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis argued that if his rival Republican candidate former President Donald Trump had followed his promise to build a wall on the border, “it would have been much more difficult for Biden to get away with” the damage he’s done on the border.DeSantis said, “I do think, when he’s saying things, like, in Iowa, the other day, that, well, he couldn’t follow his campaign promise to have Mexico build the border — pay for the border wall, because there was, no...

A maniac attacked three people with a glass bottle in a violent and unprovoked rampage that began at a Manhattan Whole Foods Market on Thursday evening, according to police. The string of attacks started outside the Whole Foods on Sixth Avenue across from Bryant Park when the 33-year-old suspect bashed a 23-year-old man with a bottle around 6:40 p.m., police said. The assailant then went inside the store to the second floor, where he attacked a 49-year-old woman, the NYPD said. He then fled outside and into the subway station at 47th Street and 6th Avenue, where he struck a...

Establishment? @RonDeSantis goes off: “I’ve been fighting the Republican establishment my whole career.”

Conservative women's rights advocate Michelle Evans said she and her allies won't be stopped or silenced in their fight to defend women, even when being screamed at by "unhinged" transgender activists. The Round Rock Texas chapter leader for Independent Women’s Network was one of several speakers shouted down by transgender activists at a pro-women rally at the Texas Capitol. Evans said it was the first time she'd seen counter-protesters show up armed with "AR-15s." "You know, it's an open carry state. And I respect everybody's right to keep and bear arms. We had security and protection that were armed as...

Wednesday, during his show’s opening monologue, FNC host Tucker Carlson reiterated his criticism of the United States’ involvement in the Ukraine-Russia conflict. Carlson mocked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s address to a joint session of Congress, likening the Ukrainian leader to a strip club manager

Director, actor, and longtime Democrat activist Rob Reiner blamed former President Donald Trump for the recent attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) husband, Paul Pelosi, claiming it was “directly” tied to Trump challenging the legitimacy of the 2020 election. In a tweet from Friday, Reiner accused the former president of “spreading The Big Lie for 2 years. Trump’s questioning of the election results, Reiner argued, “directly” inspired the recent attack on the Pelosi home.

New footage from January 6, 2021, shows a candid moment where House Speaker Nancy Pelosi threatened to physically strike then-President Trump, should he have joined those protesting at the Capitol. In the video, which was publicly shared Thursday, Pelosi admits the actions could have resulted in her going to prison — a consequence she said she would "be happy" to accept. "I hope he comes, I’m going to punch him out," Pelosi tells her Chief of Staff Terri McCullough, who discourages her boss from making the comments. "I’ve been waiting for this, for trespassing on the Capitol grounds. I’m going...

Russian President Putin:- We're witnessing sheer satanism in West - Do we want our children to be offered operations on sex changes? It's unacceptable! - Our future is different. We're fighting for a great, historic Russia… Vladimir Putin: “We are witnessing Satanism”

I had a column on Monday analyzing Judge Aileen Cannon’s order, earlier in the day, granting former president Trump’s petition for a special master to review materials the government seized from Mar-a-Lago last month pursuant to a search warrant. That analysis focuses on what I believe is the main issue raised by Judge Cannon’s decision: the possibility that Trump, as a former president, retains not only some measure of executive privilege but also the authority to invoke that privilege against the executive branch of the incumbent administration. In this post, I want to focus on a couple of other aspects...

Bill Barr is everywhere, trashing his former boss. But he waited a long time to leave the president he now detests. I regret he has become another virtually unhinged, obsessed, disgruntled former employee. Now he’s even defending the FBI’s raid of Trump’s home. Pathetic.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) September 2, 2022

This is who we're up against Try not to laugh too hard or expel whatever you're drinking all over your keyboard and monitor.

@EricGreitens I want to tell you directly, Karl Rove and Mitch McConnell. Hear me now. You are disgusting cowards. And we are coming for you. I will no longer allow you to attack me and attack my kids and to destroy this country. Video...

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has asserted that Fox News has “done more damage to this country than all the bad media combined.” The reason for this, Lindell said, is that conservatives expected them to speak out about discrepancies during the 2020 election. “Shame on Fox!” Lindell said during a Lindell Report broadcast. “They’ve done more damage to this country than all the bad media combined because we expected them to speak out! Just at least talk about the, at least be a journalist! Like being a Weather Channel… and you can’t report tornadoes or hurricanes!” Lindell also blasted the network...
