Here is Gov. Ron DeSantis on with Megyn Kelly where she asked if he would commit to pardoning President Trump if he is elected President. It is highly unlikely DeSantis will be in that position. He’s losing ground in the GOP Nomination race right now. He doesn’t exactly give a definitive answer here either........

Just bizarre! Nearly 64 years to the day (July 19, 1969) since Democrat Sen. Ted Kennedy drove a car off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island, just off Martha’s Vineyard, another bizarre drowning has taken place connected to a high-profile Democrat. The personal chef of Barack and Michelle Obama has drowned mysteriously in a pond on the property of their $12 million Martha’s Vineyard estate. He reportedly drowned after being out on the pond in a paddle-boat with another person in a paddle boat. Details are sparse. The Obama’s issued a statement saying they are “heartbroken.” The Obamas’ Martha’s Vineyard mansion...

A Palestinian Terrorist has injured 7 in an attack in Tel Aviv. The terrorist used a car to ram people, and then exited the vehicle to carry out a stabbing rampage. If not for an armed Israeli civilian who shot the Palestinian attacker, it could have been even worse. This is the kind of violence and threat Israelis face every day from radical Islamic elements who don’t believe they even have a right to exist. This time, a good guy with a gun was on scene to limit the carnage. . . .

Oh my. Just imagine what Biden will be like if he wins a second term? This is ridiculous that he is even trying to run. He had spoken at the U.S. Air Force Academy Graduation when he took this terrible fall. . . .

Here is Florida GOP Rep. Byron Donalds just savaging the Debt Ceiling Deal agreed to by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and President Joe Biden. Donalds lays out why he opposes the deal, calling it a “crap deal” that leaves “all of Joe Biden’s policies, and all of Joe Biden’s spending intact.” He urges all Republicans to vote against the deal.....

What a great ad for Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin. It sure sounds like an, “I’m running for President” ad, but it stops short. It builds on Ronald Reagan’s “A Time for Choosing” speech before he ran for President.....

The reaction on CNN after Trump’s Town Hall Triumph last night was just priceless. They were shell-shocked, you could tell, at how well Trump did. GOP Rep. Byron Donalds was on their panel as a GOP voice – and what a job he did! He hammered them for their bias, and dealt with one attack after another. He is a very impressive person, someone Trump should consider as a Vice-Presidential running mate. . . .

Imagine what Biden will be like two years from now – or six years from now should he win re-election? He is a befuddled mess most of the time. Today he suddenly told a shocked press corps taking pictures of a meeting he was having that he was having a “major Press Conference” this afternoon. That was news to all of them! . . . .

A chilling video threat from Islamic Jihad in Gaza, showing them readying rockets to be launched against Israeli civilians. The terrorists posted the video and threatened, “We haven’t started yet.” This after dozens of rockets launched from Gaza by Hamas and Islamic Jihad Terrorists hit Israeli targets earlier today and over the past several days. Israeli Defense Forces have responded to defend Israelis with attacks hitting inside Gaza. The bottom line: The Islamic radicals don’t recognize Israel’s right to exist. . . .

It just keeps getting worse. The shooter in Texas who is an Illegal Alien had not only been deported – he had been deported FIVE TIMES! This is completely indefensible by the Biden Administration. Their open border policy is literally killing people. Forget about unconstitutional “Gun Control” and focus on Border Control! . . .

A brilliant strategy that frames the 2024 Election perfectly. Voters who might not really like Joe Biden, but feel comfortable with him, must realize that if they vote for Biden – they are ACTUALLY voting for Cackling Crazy Kamala from California to be President. Are 50%+1 of Americans really comfortable with Kamala Harris as President? Whoever is the GOP Nominee would be wise to press this reality. . . .

News is out today that Tucker Carlson is out at Fox News. Tucker has faithfully told the truth on his program, and has pushed the edges of the woke madness in our culture today. Fox News, in the wake of their Dominion settlement, appears to be moving in the direction of trying to pacify the woke Left – probably hoping to avoid attacks and lawsuits. This will only embolden the Left. They will now believe they can control Fox News. As for Tucker Carlson – he will not go away, I’m sure. He will very likely start another Media Company,...

Speaking at New England College in New Hampshire yesterday, Gov. Chris Christie attacked former President Donald Trump, calling him a “failure” as President, and “just a TV Star.” Christie is mulling a possible Presidential run himself, and says he will decide by mid-May whether to challenge Trump for the GOP Nomination. Christie has been touting himself as the one guy who could take Trump out under “the brightest of lights” – meaning the Debate stage. Christie is going to have a hard time convincing GOP Primary Voters that Trump was a failure as President. We remember all that Trump was...

A blockbuster story, and kudos to CBS News for having the courage to break from the rest of the Leftist Media and actually report the IRS Whistleblower coming forward to say the Biden Administration is potentially obstructing justice to keep Hunter Biden from being charged with Tax Violations. This CBS News report even identifies Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland as the official who the Whistleblower is prepared to say has lied to Congress about this matter. . . .

Sen. Marco Rubio absolutely nails it in describing where we now are as a nation – from having a President who barely knows where he is at any given moment in time, to radical transgenders assaulting a female college athlete for daring to say only actual females should be able to compete in Women’s Sporting events. Rubio said the World looks at America today and considers us a “laughingstock,” as we “commit societal suicide.” . . .

THIS is where we are in America. Liberal Harvard Law Professor, Alan Dershowitz just says it clearly to Sean Hannity – “There is no way Donald Trump can get a fair trial in Manhattan.” Dershowitz said again and again – “The Rule of Law does not apply to Donald Trump.” The hatred for Trump is so great, the Left has convinced itself any and all means to destroy him is fair game. Dershowitz is a man of the Left. He is a Democrat. But he has experienced persecution himself for representing Trump during his Impeachment Trial. He knows whereof he...

A local weatherman, doing a great job, and with a genuine heart for the people he serves. As a massive tornado bears down on Amory, Mississippi, meteorologist Matt Laubhan is overwhelmed. He stops and prays for the people of the city. . . .

Republicans may be about to get some very good news! GOP West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice – a former Democrat – is reportedly very likely to announce he will run for the U.S. Senate seat held by Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin in 2024. Justice would be almost a shoe-in to win that race, and very well could result in Manchin not even seeking re-election. He is very popular in the state, and West Virginia is now one of the most Republican states in the country. Manchin has managed to survive the last two elections because of weak GOP Candidates. This...

It took him 20 days to do it, but Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg finally made an appearance in East Palestine, Ohio, to tour the scene of the Train Derailment disaster. Of course, he did so as early in the morning as he could, surrounded by officials, obviously to avoid crowds of average people who might boo him or ask him difficult questions. He was decked out in his safety gear, too. What a stark contrast to President Trump yesterday. . . .

President Donald Trump brought hope to the beleaguered people of East Palestine, Ohio today, coming to visit them when no major Biden Administration official has done so thus far. Trump announced over the weekend he would come to East Palestine to offer support for the citizens of the small town in the wake of the Train Derailment Disaster that has brought so much fear and uncertainty into the lives of the residents. Trump’s announced visit has gotten movement from Biden Officials, who have tried to downplay the entire incident. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has yet to visit the town, but...
