DHS Spox Touts ‘Major Success’ In Florida After Nabbing Nearly 800 Illegals In 4 Days

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin described the arrest records of some illegal immigrants arrested by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as part of “a large-scale operation” during a Saturday evening appearance on Fox News.

Federal, state and local law enforcement carried out Operation Tidal Wave in Florida, arresting nearly 800 illegal immigrants during the four-day operation, according to a post on X by Fox News reporter Bill Melugin. McLaughlin said the sweep was a “preview” of additional operations.

“This was a major success, it was a large-scale operation. And to your point, this is a preview of what is to come throughout the nation,” McLaughlin said. “We have partnerships under 287(g) authorities that Secretary [of Homeland Security Kristi] Noem signed, and this empowers state and local law enforcement to actually be able to use their enforcement authority to carry out immigration enforcement.”

WATCH:

Section 287(g) was enacted in 1996 and allows ICE to delegate certain functions to state and local law enforcement agencies, according to ICE’s website.

“What that means is they can actually make arrests and clean up our streets get these criminal aliens off our streets,” McLaughlin said. “So, like you said, almost 800 aliens including MS-13 gang members, convicted murderers, rapists, all of these people are now off of our streets who otherwise have been acting with impunity and terrorizing U.S. communities. You are going to be seeing this throughout the country, and I think that Americans are going to be really thrilled with the results under this administration in the next 100 days.”

Among the illegal immigrants arrested were Ramon Ciro Castaneda and Carlos Perez-Perez, members of the Venezuelan prison Tren de Aragua (TdA) and each under a “Final Order of Removal,” according to summaries provided to the Daily Caller News Foundation by the Department of Homeland Security.

“This success and massive operation is a window into what is to come throughout the country for the next 100 days of the Trump administration,” McLaughlin told the DCNF when reached for comment. “Our state and local law enforcement are heroes as we execute on the president’s mandate to secure the border, remove illegal aliens and make America safe.”

Carlos Perez-Perez (Department of Homeland Security)

President Donald Trump issued multiple executive orders to address border security and illegal immigration upon taking office Jan. 20, including designating Mexican drug cartels, TdA and the Salvadoran gang MS-13 as foreign terrorist organizations, while invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to speed up the deportation of members of the two gangs on March 15.

McLaughlin also commented on the Friday arrest of Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan on obstruction charges after she allegedly misdirected ICE agents seeking to arrest an illegal immigrant who had a hearing before her on April 18 before escorting the illegal immigrant out through a back door.

“This is just beyond the pale. I mean, take the Wisconsin judge. The fact she let this individual this illegal alien. American people should know the charges against him more. Strangulation, suffocation, battery, other domestic abuse charges. This is no innocent guy,” McLaughlin said. “As far as the New Mexico case it went beyond just harboring this member of Tren de Aragua.”

“The wife and that judge went so far as to destroy evidence including two photos on this criminal illegal alien’s phone that showed decapitated individuals, he was sending that around,” McLaughlin continued. “They went so far as to take a hammer and destroy this phone so that police couldn’t access this. We are going continue to go after these activist judges, especially in such egregious cases like this.”

‘Americans Do Not Want This’: DCNF Reporter Says Dems Will Keep Losing If They Push Radical Gender Ideology

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

A Daily Caller News Foundation reporter told Fox News host Will Cain Wednesday that Democrats’ continued push on child sex changes and allowing biological men to compete in women’s sports would be a “losing issue” for them.

President Donald Trump clashed with Democratic Gov. Janet Mills of Maine over biological men playing in women’s sports during a White House event Friday, while Democratic Gov. Tony Evers of Wisconsin backed legislation introduced Feb. 18 that replaced the term “woman” with “inseminated person.” DCNF Investigative Reporter Megan Brock, whose Sunday post in response to news about the Wisconsin bill received over two million views on X, said that Americans “rejected” the “false premise” of “transgender ideology.”

“You’ve got to wonder if Democrats just like losing because, to your point, it is a losing issue for them,” Brock told Cain. “America has rejected transgender ideology. We understand that women are women, men are men and that our daughters deserve to be safe in their locker rooms, to be safe at sports and to have a chance to win and it’s extremely unfair that anybody would suggest that a girl who is working so hard as a student athlete should have her opportunity to win taken away as that state legislator said, from a biological boy, from a man.”

WATCH:

“It’s absolutely ridiculous. Americans do not want this, and I think that there is an army rising of normal citizens and different people who are going to protect our girls,” Brock said.

Trump signed an executive order barring federal funds from schools that allow men who identify as transgender women to play in women’s sports Feb. 5. Attorney General Pam Bondi warned California, Minnesota and Maine Tuesday that they would face legal action if they do not comply with Trump’s order, The Hill reported.

Cain asked Brock about Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos, saying the paper would be defending “personal liberties” and whether sex changes fell under that description.

“Well, there are two sexes, and we know that from simple biology. There is an ova, and there is a sperm. There is no third gamete. When President Trump signed the order ending the mutilation of children through alleged sex change, he was right to call it that,” Brock said. “We don’t let anyone abuse children in this country, and when you see 12-year-old girls having their breasts removed, being sterilized, having these medical treatments that are extremely experimental, all to sell them a lie that you can change your sex. You cannot change your sex.”

“So, no, it is not an issue of personal liberty, because the entire premise is false, and we are absolutely harming children. There are so many detransitioner voices who are speaking up and really leading this cause. Think of Chloe Cole and just sharing her story of what has been done to her, and really this is an issue of protecting children,” Brock said. “We do have limits and protecting children is something that is fundamental to our society.”

‘Warning Signs Are Coming’: Fox News Host, Pollster Spell Out Data Showing Harris Hemorrhaging Hispanic Support

/in , , , , , , , , /by

Fox News host Sandra Smith and pollster Daron Shaw broke down Friday how Vice President Kamala Harris was losing support from Hispanic voters in the crucial swing state of Arizona.

Harris trails former President Donald Trump 48% to his 51% in a Fox News poll of likely voters in Arizona released Thursday. Smith and Shaw noted that a major factor in the vice president falling behind in the polls was due to lower margins of support among women and Hispanic voters.

“I want to take you to look at some of what is happening in Arizona, and the preference right there is for Donald Trump by three points in the latest Fox News polling. But there are some warning signs for Harris and questions of whether or not she can close this gap,” Smith said.

WATCH:

“Some of the warning signs are coming from the Hispanic voters. She had an 18-point lead with them in August in that state. That has now shrunk to 11,” Smith continued. “When it comes to voters under 30, not only has that margin shrank, but it’s gone to the deficit. She had a 13-point lead there, and it’s now gone to a 12-point deficit.”

Trump picked up substantial support among Hispanic voters in polling due to issues like immigration and the economy before President Joe Biden announced he would not seek reelection on July 21. Harris has regained some support from Hispanic voters since replacing Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket in some polls.

“The Democratic coalition relies heavily on African American voters, on Hispanic voters, on younger voters, as you just pointed out. In 2020, Biden’s margin — you know, Trump barely got double digits with African American voters. He was in the 30s with Hispanics. He was in the 30s with voters under 30 years of age,” Shaw noted. “Now you’re talking about numbers amongst Hispanics in the 40s, numbers close to W. Bush’s numbers. Amongst younger voters, these are smaller sample sizes so we have to be a little cautious here, but the fact that he is competitive, let alone leading amongst younger voters, is devastating news for her campaign.”

“She desperately needs those voters to swing back to their traditional patterns she’s going to win a state like Arizona,” Shaw continued. “This is a state decided by 12,500 votes last time. You can’t hemorrhage voters from your key coalitions and expect to carry a state like Arizona.”

VIDEO: Pollsters Say RFK Jr. Endorsement ‘Could Have A Really Big Impact’ And ‘Help Trump’

/in , , , , , , /by

Republican pollster Lee Carter and Democratic pollster Carly Cooperman on Friday said that independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of former President Donald Trump could significantly boost his campaign.

Kennedy announced during a Friday speech that he would suspend his campaign and endorse Trump in states where he is not on the ballot, only withdrawing his name from consideration in key battleground states as not to spoil the vote. Carter and Cooperman, on “Your World With Neil Cavuto,” said that in such a close election, the votes that Trump could gain from Kennedy’s decision might boost his chances of defeating Vice President Kamala Harris.

WATCH:

“When you’re looking at these battleground states, we’re looking at averages where Donald Trump might be ahead by 0.2%, and just getting some of those votes could have a really big impact. And I think RFK Jr. knows this,” Carter said. “He was very, very keen to say, ‘I am withdrawing my name from these 10 states because I know it can have an impact.’ And so I think there is a very, very clear directive here.”

“It’s absolutely the case that the polls in these swing states show that with RFK removed, there is a small advantage that goes to Donald Trump. And in these states, every single vote really does matter. This makes a lot of sense,” Cooperman said. “Democrats are far more enthusiastic about Kamala Harris as their presidential candidate than they were about Joe Biden. And so you’re seeing much more coalescing among Democrats for Kamala, and therefore the support that RFK was getting in the most recent polls was certainly going to help Trump more so with him removed from it.”

Cooperman also noted “there is uncertainty” about what Kennedy’s supporters will do in November.

“It’s going to really depend, what are these voters going to do? Are they going to stay home or are they going to throw their support behind Donald Trump? I’m very curious now to see how RFK Jr. is integrated into Donald Trump’s campaign and what kind of role they’re going to talk about for him and how they might use this,” Carter added.

“I think Donald Trump’s got to return himself to sort of the underdog status that would help to get those RFK Jr. supporters on his side,” the Republican pollster said.

Kennedy’s support plunged to as low as 2% as of early August, according to an Economist/YouGov poll. Trump is presently beating Harris in the main battleground states by 0.1%, according to the RealClearPoltics average.

A “Morning Joe” panel sounded the alarm on Friday about how difficult it will be for Harris to beat Trump, with the race being so tight and the former president historically outperforming polls on election day.

“You got to look at states like North Carolina and Arizona and, of course, Georgia. Now, you may get a break with minority voting down in Georgia, but you could also come up short in Pennsylvania and not quite win in North Carolina,” former MSNBC host Chris Matthews said. “This could squeak. This could be the toughest election, because if Pennsylvania doesn’t go the Democratic way and North Carolina doesn’t go that way, it’s tough, it’s really tough.”

Kamala Backs Out of Presidential Debate

/in , , , , , , /by

The less America sees and hears of Kamala the better it is for the Democrats. Why debate when you have the whole Democrat media/entertainment complex pimping for Commie-la 24/7? Trump should do the debate with an empty podium.

Kamala Harris has backed out of the Presidential Debate hosted by Fox News on September 4th. President Trump says he will have a live tele town hall with Sean Hannity on September 4th in Pennsylvania on Fox News.

Trump says Kamala Harris will not participate in Fox News debate on Sept. 4

Trump and Harris have both confirmed they would participate in a Sept. 10 debate on ABC News

By Landon Mion • Fox News

Former President Trump said Monday night that Vice President Kamala Harris’ team told his campaign that she would not participate in a Fox News presidential debate on September 4.

The proposed debate would have been held in Pennsylvania and moderated by Fox News anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.

“I am not surprised by this development because I feel that she knows it is very difficult, at best, for her to defend her record setting Flip-Flopping on absolutely everything she once believed in, including her statements that THERE WILL BE NO FRACKING IN PENNSYLVANIA and her HORRIBLE Performance on the Border,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

The former president had initially been reluctant to debate Harris after President Biden suspended his re-election campaign because she was not the Democratic Party’s official candidate before later agreeing to debate her once she secured the party’s nomination for president.

Trump and Harris have both confirmed they would participate in a Sept. 10 debate on ABC News. Trump previously said he also agreed to an NBC News debate on Sept. 25.

The Harris campaign has said it would consider a second presidential debate in October. Both campaigns have also agreed to a vice presidential debate on CBS News on Oct. 1 between Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Republican Sen. J.D. Vance.

Trump Recalls ‘Only’ Interaction With Tim Walz On ‘Fox & Friends’

/in , , , , , , /by

Former President Donald Trump reflected Wednesday morning on his “only” interaction with presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.

Trump told “Fox and Friends” co-hosts in his first televised interview since Harris tapped Walz to join the ticket Tuesday that the Minnesota governor called him “very concerned” during the intersection of Black Lives Matter (BLM) riots and COVID-19 lockdowns in 2020. Trump expressed that he “can’t believe” Harris chose Walz.

“I know him a little bit,” Trump said. “I helped him very much during the riots because his house was surrounded by people that were waving an American flag. Doesn’t sound like very bad people. And he called me, and he was very concerned. Very, very concerned that it was going to get out of control.”

On April 17, 2020, dozens of protesters gathered outside Walz’s governor’s mansion in St. Paul for a second day, demanding he end Minnesota’s COVID-19 stay-at-home order, according to CBS News. The demonstrators, consisting of frustrated business owners holding signs and waving American flags, referred to themselves as “Liberate Minnesota.”

Walz issued multiple COVID-19 executive orders April 17, 2020, extending his emergency order for another month. While the Minnesota governor loosened restrictions on outdoor recreation, a six-foot distance was still required for those in separate households. Minnesotans who could “work at home” were required to continue.

Trump said Walz’s mansion only had “one guard” and that the Minnesota governor called him for help. Trump said the anti-lockdown protesters “left” after he “put out the word” about Walz.

“They only had one guard, I guess it was at the mansion or had his house in some form. And he called me, and I said, ‘What do you want me to do about it?’ I was in the White House. He said, ‘If you would put out the word that I’m a good person,’ and I did, I put out the word. I said, ‘he’s a good person. I hope everything’s good.’ And everybody put down their flags and took their flags with them. But they took the American flags and their MAGA flags and they left. It was thousands of people,” Trump said Wednesday on Fox News.

“And that was the first time I said, ‘Wow, that’s very interesting.’ And he called me back and he thanked me very much. That’s my only thing I ever had to do with him,” Trump continued. “He’s a very, very liberal man, and he’s a shocking pick. And I’m, I’m thrilled. I could not be more thrilled.”

In April 2020, similar anti-lockdown protests occurred in states including Ohio, New York, North Carolina, Kentucky and Michigan, according to NBC News. Trump sent three tweets April 17, 2020, the same day Walz’s mansion was mobbed by demonstrators, saying, “LIBERATE VIRGINIA,” “LIBERATE MICHIGAN!” and “LIBERATE MINNESOTA!”

At the time, Democratic Washington Gov. Jay Inslee accused Trump of “fomenting domestic rebellion” and that he was “putting millions of people in danger of contracting COVID-19.” A Twitter spokesperson rebutted that claim, stating that Trump’s rhetoric was too vague and did not violate the website’s COVID-19 policies, NBC News noted at the time.

On April 20, 2020, Trump tweeted that he “received a very nice call” from Walz and that his administration was working “fast” to help fulfill the Minnesota governor’s needs.

The Star Tribune reported that Walz said Trump “expressed great desire to work with us” following their 10-minute phone call April 18, 2020. The Minnesota governor made clear his disinterest in “adjudicating why we don’t have these things now” and emphasized his interest “in how we get them.”

Trump Agrees To Fox News Debate Against Kamala Harris

/in , , , , , /by

Former President Donald Trump has agreed to debate Vice President Kamala Harris on Fox News in early September.

The debate would be held on Sept. 4 in Pennsylvania at a location to be determined with a live audience, broadcasted on Fox News and moderated by Fox anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, Trump wrote in a Friday night post on Truth Social. Trump was initially scheduled to debate President Joe Biden on ABC in September, but plans have apparently changed after Biden imploded at the June 27 debate against Trump, quit the race July 21 and endorsed Harris.

“I have agreed with FoxNews to debate Kamala Harris on Wednesday, September 4th. The Debate was previously scheduled against Sleepy Joe Biden on ABC, but has been terminated in that Biden will no longer be a participant, and I am in litigation against ABC Network and George Stephanopoulos, thereby creating a conflict of interest,” Trump wrote in his Truth Social post. “The FoxNews Debate will be held in the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, at a site in an area to be determined. The Moderators of the Debate will be Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, and the Rules will be similar to the Rules of my Debate with Sleepy Joe, who has been treated horribly by his Party – BUT WITH A FULL ARENA AUDIENCE!”

Fox News Digital also reported on Trump agreeing to debate Harris. Fox News previously invited both candidates to debate each other on the network on Sept. 17, according to the outlet.

“Donald Trump is running scared and trying to back out of the debate he already agreed to and running straight to Fox News to bail him out. He needs to stop playing games and show up to the debate he already committed to on Sept 10,” Harris campaign communications director Michael Tyler said, according to NBC News. “The Vice President will be there one way or the other to take the opportunity to speak to a prime time national audience. We’re happy to discuss further debates after the one both campaigns have already agreed to. Mr. Anytime, anywhere, anyplace should have no problem with that unless he’s too scared to show up on the 10th.”

Harris, who has clinched the Democratic nomination and is expected to soon announce her running mate, has said that she is prepared to square off with Trump on the debate stage, and she has suggested that the former president was trying to wiggle his way out of the Sept. 10 ABC debate, according to the Associated Press.

In another Friday night post to Truth Social, Trump also ripped Democrats for “unceremoniously” pushing Biden off the ticket in favor of Harris.

“As everyone knows, the Democrats have Unconstitutionally taken a Candidate, who was acknowledged to be defeated, and unceremoniously replaced him with a new Candidate. This has never been done before, and is a Threat to Democracy, but I am totally prepared to accept the results of this ‘coup,’ and replace Joe on the Debate stage with Crazy Kamala Harris,” Trump wrote. “I spent Hundreds of Millions of Dollars, Time, and Effort fighting Joe, and when I won the Debate, they threw a new Candidate into the ring. Not fair, but it is what it is! Nevertheless, different Candidate or not, their bad Policies are the same, and this will be strongly revealed at the September 4th Debate. I look forward to meeting and debating Kamala Harris on September 4th.”

The Harris campaign did not respond immediately to a request for comment.

‘We Need A Businessman’: DNC’s ‘Calamari Comeback’ Chef Turns On Biden, Endorses Trump

/in , , , , , , , /by

A calamari chef who the Democrats put at the forefront of their convention in 2020 took to Fox News Monday to announce that he will be voting for presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

John Bordieri, the man who went viral as the “Calamari Comeback” chef featured by the Democratic National Convention (DNC), told “Fox and Friends First” co-host Carley Shimkus that he will support Trump in the 2024 election.

“He’s a businessman, and I think we need a businessman that can run the United States like a business and to help the people who live here create jobs, keeping lower prices, and see the whole bottom line work out for everybody,” Bordieri said.

“I just always believed business is business. And politicians? I don’t know…. I don’t wanna diss them or anything, but, you know, you always hear that they’re going to make up stories, and they’re gonna help you, and they’re gonna do this here, and they’re gonna do that for you,” he continued. “I think Donald Trump did an awful lot while he was in office, the four years that he was here.”

The Rhode Island chef expressed his sympathy toward young people who want to buy a home, saying that “over-inflated prices” and “high interest rates” will “crush them.”

“You see the prices going up on a weekly basis, sometimes a daily basis. You know, everything fluctuates, especially the commodities and stuff like the seafood and the dairy products and the stuff,” Bordieri told Shimkus. “I purchase weekly, daily, and I see the prices go up.”

Bordieri famously announced his support for Biden in a video featured by the DNC in 2020. The chef said restaurants and the fishing industry were “decimated” by the COVID-19 pandemic and that he will deliver a “Calamari Comeback.” He also praised former Democratic Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo before declaring that Biden would be “the next president” of the United States.

Inflation peaked at 9% in 2022 under President Joe Biden, a dramatic surge from the 1.4% measured when Biden took office in Jan. 2021, according to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The CPI measured inflation at 3.4% as of April 2024.

Eric Trump Says Democrats ‘Feeding’ Trump Black, Hispanic, Youth Votes

/in , , , , , , , /by

Eric Trump said Democrats are “feeding” presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump black votes Sunday on Fox News.

Trump’s campaign announced Friday that it had raised $54.8 million 24 hours after a 12-person jury in deep-blue Manhattan convicted Trump Thursday on all 34 counts in the falsified business records case brought by Democratic District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Eric Trump told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo that the American “people do not buy the sham,” citing a Daily Mail poll showing the Republican candidate up six points since being convicted.

“As I walked out that courthouse that day, I said, ‘May 30th, 2024 might be the day that won it for Donald Trump. I’m telling you, I’ve never seen this country more upset about what’s happening,” Eric Trump told Bartiromo. “It’s the law of unintended consequences. The Democrats always dig so deep that they end up finding themselves. They thing their little trickery will be overlooked, that they’re smarter than everybody else. I think the hard they hit him, the more they do this, the more money he’s gonna raise, the more independents he’s gonna get.”

“As I mentioned, the swing of independent voters after this conviction has been unbelievable because no one believes it,” he continued. “And you know, they’re literally feeding him, you know, certain segments of the population that he might not have had in 2016 and 2020 because for the first time, they realize that the system’s coming down, that he’s the victim. He’s the victim that oftentimes some of their communities were.”

“And you see them swing,” Eric Trump said. “Look at the African American vote, right? That’s swinging over to Donald Trump in spades. Look at the Hispanic vote over the last couple years. You know, look at the youth vote right now, Maria. I mean, we’ve never had more youth support out there and people know exactly what’s going on and they want a strong country again.”

President Joe Biden has lost support from black and Hispanic voters across swing states and Democratic strongholds while Trump has been making headway. Trump held a historic rally in the South Bronx on May 23 as his support among black voters more than doubled since 2020.

‘They Got It Twisted’: Blexit Activist Tears Into Dems For ‘Fumbling’ Black Vote, Praises ‘Magical’ Trump Bronx Rally

/in , , , , , , , /by

A Blexit activist, Madeline Brame, tore into Democrats on Friday for “fumbling” the black vote as she praised presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s “magical” rally in the South Bronx.

Blexit is an advocacy movement named for “Black Exit.” The BLEXIT Foundation, started in 2019 by Candace Owens and Brandon Tatum, focuses on “shifting culture” away from promoting “the victimhood mentality” among black Americans through “grassroots organizing” and “educational initiatives,” according to the organization’s website.

Trump held his first campaign rally in New York since 2016 Thursday evening at Cortona Park, drawing enthusiastic supporters from the otherwise Democratic stronghold. Brame, who attended Trump’s Bronx rally, told Fox News host Will Cain the Democratic Party has “got it twisted” when it comes to the support of black voters.

“I’m very disturbed, number one, by these comments that these paid, okay, um, elected officials off on our tax dollars are making toward a whole entire demographic of American citizens. They work for us, we don’t work for them. They got it twisted,” Brame said.

“Yesterday, out of the Bronx, that was electric,” she continued. “There was something supernatural about that whole entire experience. The energy that was in that park, of people of all races, of all creeds, all religions, all together on one accord. And we were happy. And we were excited. It was magical.”

“You had to be there to understand and feel the energy. None of those rich people in suits would ever step foot in there. Donald Trump did, and we had his ear. He showed us he cared,” Brame said.

Brame’s sentiment toward the Republican candidate was echoed by numerous Bronx rally attendees of Trump’s speech, during which the former president told the audience that “it doesn’t matter” what race or “whatever the hell color you are” because “we are all American” and will “pull together” to improve the country.

‘The Republican Party Is Not The Enemy’: Black Voters Tell Lawrence Jones Why They’re Picking Trump

/in , , , , , , /by

Black voters told Fox News host Lawrence Jones why they are voting for former President Donald Trump in a Saturday “Fox & Friends Weekend” segment.

Jones interviewed several attendees of the Black Conservative Federation’s gala Friday in Columbia, South Carolina who expressed their support for Trump ahead of the state’s GOP primary.

“Black people just need to come and realize the Republican Party is not the enemy,” one woman told Jones. “It’s good on this side of the fence.”

When asked about the main issue driving Black voters to the polls in 2024, the interviewees cited the economy and border crisis under President Joe Biden. One man told Jones “you can’t fool what happens at a grocery store,” referencing the high inflation in the United States. Another woman said “everyone is suffering right now.”

One man noted how the guests attending the gala from Chicago, New York and Texas were “tired of … the migrant issue.” Another prospective voter agreed, stating that Biden’s policies are “putting illegal immigrants ahead of the urban voters.”

“The Black community wants a leader who has the energy to actually go to bat for the issues that they would want to fight for. And we see that in Donald Trump,” one man told the Fox News host. “We don’t necessarily see that from Joe Biden.”

The prospective voter continued to explain that Trump is “visible,” claiming many Black voters believe “he’ll have the energy, he’ll have the charisma to get up and go and fight for the issues.”

President Biden has recently faced concerns about his fitness for office following the conclusion of special counsel Robert Hur’s report. The report concluded criminal charges would likely not be filed against the president because he “would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview, as a sympathetic, well-meaning old elderly man with a poor memory.”

“I think that most Black people are trying to look for something different,” another man told Jones. “A lot of us are waking up, especially Black men.”

Kari Lake Reveals If She Would Accept VP Slot Under Trump

/in , , , , , /by

Republican Senate Candidate Kari Lake of Arizona demurred when asked if she would serve as former President Donald Trump’s running mate Monday evening.

Speculation about who Trump would select as his running mate increased after Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis dropped out of the Republican primary race Sunday in a video posted on X, formerly known as Twitter less than a week after Trump won the Iowa caucuses by a record margin. Lake deflected when Fox News host Jesse Watters asked if she’d accept the vice-presidential slot on the ticket.

WATCH:

“I see myself in the Senate and helping America, to secure our border and make Arizona a safer and better place to live in the U.S. Senate,” Lake told Watters.” I’m here in New Hampshire right now helping President Trump and I really want to get him back in office, but I think we need to make sure, not only do we take back the White House, but we have got to have the majority in the Senate.”

Lake is running for the Senate seat held by Independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, who is also facing a challenge from Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego of Arizona.

“If we don’t have the majority in the Senate, can you imagine how hard it’s going to be for President Trump to get things done?” Lake asked Watters. “And this outrageous ruling by the Supreme Court just proves we need a law to build the wall and secure the border. We need a law to finally stop people from pouring across our border and destroying our country. That’s what I’m willing and able to do, and starting on day one I’m going to help President Trump do that.”

Nearly 380,000 illegal immigrants have been encountered at the U.S.-Mexico border during the first two months fiscal year 2024, which started Oct. 1, according to data released by United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP), following 2,045,838 encounters in fiscal year 2023, 2,206,436 in fiscal year 2022 and 1,659,206 in fiscal year 2021. Another 302,000 illegal immigrants entered the United States in December.

‘He Lost Me’: Jonathan Turley Rebuts Biden’s ‘Assault On Democracy’ Speech In Less Than 60 Seconds

/in , , , , , , /by

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said that President Joe Biden’s speech about democracy “seemed rather conflicting” in the details Friday.

Biden claimed former President Donald Trump promised an “assault on democracy” during the Friday speech near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, saying defending democracy was a “central cause” of his administration. During the speech, Biden cited the riot at the Capitol building during the certification of the electoral votes on Jan. 6, 2021.

“He lost me in the specifics,” Turley told Fox News host Martha MacCallum. “He talks about democracy being on the ballot but the ballot isn’t very democratic, his own party is trying to strip ballots of Donald Trump’s name to prevent people who want to vote for what appears to be the leading candidate for the presidency from doing that.”

WATCH:

Democratic Secretary of State Shenna Bellows of Maine ruled Trump was ineligible for the office of President of the United States Dec. 28, citing the 14th Amendment’s “insurrection” clause. The Colorado Supreme Court ruled Trump was disqualified from appearing on the ballot in the 2024 election in a 4-3 decision Dec. 19. The Supreme Court took up Trump’s appeal Friday.

“So when he’s talking about the freedom to vote and have your vote count, his party is actively trying to prevent that and saying, really, you’re not just voting for me, just think you’re voting for democracy,” Turley continued. “For those people, they really feel like, if we vote for you, do we get democracy back next time? Are we going to have all of the candidates on the ballot? I don’t think that effort will succeed.”

Turley also pointed out the Biden administration’s efforts to censor critics. United States District Judge Terry A. Doughty of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana issued an injunction July 4 prohibiting Biden administration officials with multiple agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Health and Human Services, from contacting social media companies to push for “the removal, deletion, suppression, or reduction of content containing protected free speech.”

The Supreme Court is considering whether to hear an appeal from the Biden administration.

“It’s worth noting when he talks about the freedom of speech, the Biden administration I have written before, is the most anti-free-speech administration since the administration of John Adams,” Turley said. “I mean, his administration has carried out what a federal court called an Orwellian censorship program with the help of social media companies.”

“Part of the speech was, in fact uplifting, but then when you got down to the details, it seemed rather conflicting for this president,” Turley concluded.

‘Totally Inappropriate’: Trump Rips Biden For Sending $100 Million In Aid To Gaza

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Former President Donald Trump blasted President Joe Biden Wednesday for sending $100 million in humanitarian aid to Palestinians, calling the move “totally inappropriate.”

Biden announced the aid Wednesday, just days after the United Nations Relief and Works Agency posted on X that Hamas stole fuel and other relief supplies. Hamas attacked multiple locations in southern Israel on Oct. 7, killing over 1,400 people and taking over 200 hostages.

WATCH:

“This is being led by Iran and you would have never seen this happen. You wouldn’t have seen Ukraine happen either,” Trump said during a break in his civil trial on allegations of fraud.

“You had something about the fact that Biden is sending $100 million to the Palestinians?” Trump asked a reporter.

Israel urged residents of Gaza to evacuate Friday, citing the potential for ground operations against Hamas. People were reportedly killed when a rocket fired by Islamic Jihad hit a hospital in Gaza, according to assessments by U.S. intelligence, even as many media outlets initially echoed claims by Hamas that Israel was responsible.

“I think right now, it’s totally inappropriate. It’s so inappropriate to be doing that right now,” Trump said. “He’s over in Israel and he’s giving money to the Palestinians. I think it’s very inappropriate.”

Biden also received criticism for making concessions to Iran, including arranging for the release of $6 billion held by South Korea for humanitarian aid in exchange for Iran freeing five Americans it held prisoner.

‘They Were Being Bribed’: Fired Ukrainian Prosecutor Blames Dismissal On Biden ‘Corruption’

/in , , , , , /by

The Ukrainian prosecutor fired following pressure from then-Vice President Joe Biden alleged his firing was due to “corruption” in the Biden family.

Biden boasted about forcing the Ukrainian government to fire Viktor Shokin, a prosecutor who was investigating Burisma, an energy company, during an event held by the Council on Foreign Relations. Biden’s son, Hunter, was appointed to the board of Burisma in 2014.

“I do not want to deal in unproven facts, but my firm personal conviction is that, yes, this was the case,” Shokin said in a clip from an interview that will air on Fox News Saturday. “They were being bribed. The fact that Joe Biden gave away $1 billion in U.S. money in exchange for my dismissal, my firing, isn’t that alone a case of corruption?”

Republican Sen. Charles Grassley released the FD-1023 form containing allegations that the Bidens received millions of dollars in bribes obtained from a whistleblower on July 20. The document, which recounted what a “confidential human source” (CHS) told the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in June 2020, says that a top Burisma executive felt he was “pushed to pay” the Bidens.

Shokin had been investigating Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma during his Hunter’s tenure at the company. Biden later bragged about forcing Shokin’s ouster.

“I looked at them and said, ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money,’” Biden said. “Well, son of a bitch. He got fired.”

Devon Archer, a former business partner of Hunter Biden, told investigators that then-Vice President Joe Biden spoke with his son, Hunter, “more than 20 times about their business deals,” according to Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia.

The New York Post reported on the contents of a laptop abandoned by Hunter Biden at a Delaware computer repair shop on Oct. 14, 2020 that included emails related to business dealings by the Biden family.

The Daily Caller News Foundation confirmed the authenticity of one of the emails in October 2020. The Washington Post and New York Times confirmed the authenticity of the data in March 2022 in articles about investigations into Hunter Biden by the Department of Justice.
