TRUMP’S Triumph Ignites Outrage: Just Stop OIL Strikes Back

06 November 2024 — On Wednesday, Donald Trump claimed victory in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election, winning support from over 70 million Americans. Yet, not everyone was pleased. The far-left group Just Stop Oil showed their anger by splashing bright orange paint on the U.S. Embassy in London.

Just Stop Oil slammed corporate power and fossil fuel industries, saying they control major political parties and are the real winners of the election. They called Trump a “fake populist,” claiming he ignores what they see as vital — stopping oil and gas drilling. The group urged regular people to act since they believe no leaders will make needed changes.

Activist Joseph Aggarwal was detained by police after joining the protest. He voiced concerns about a lack of true democracy across Western nations, arguing voters get similar policies no matter which party wins, worsening living conditions and climate issues. Aggarwal accused Trump of using public frustration to help billionaires while ignoring urgent environmental problems.

TRUMP And HARRIS Neck-And-Neck: What’s Behind the Poll Shocker?

15 October 2024 — Recent polls show a tight race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, with both candidates nearly tied. Just last month, Harris was ahead in election and favorability ratings. Now, her lead is gone, sparking questions about why voters are changing their minds.

NBC’s Savannah Guthrie talked with analyst Steve Kornacki about this shift. He explained how Harris’s favorability ratings have reversed. Last month, she had a 48% positive rating compared to Trump’s steady numbers. Now her positive rating has fallen to 43%, while her negative rating jumped to 49%.

Kornacki noted that this change brings Harris’s ratings closer to Trump’s figures. He also mentioned an interesting twist about public views on Trump’s presidency. Recent polling shows that 44% of voters think Trump’s policies helped their families more than during his time in office.

HARRIS’S FUNDING Frenzy: Can Trump’s Campaign Catch UP?

10 October 2024 — Vice President Kamala Harris has surged ahead of former President Donald Trump in campaign fundraising. On the day she announced her candidacy, Harris raised $25 million and reached $500 million within a month. This financial boost gives her a strong edge as the 2024 presidential race intensifies.

Trump’s campaign, however, had collected $309 million by the end of August. To close this gap, Republican super PACs are stepping up, spending over $80 million on TV ads nationwide in September alone. They’ve also set aside more than $100 million for advertising during the campaign’s final weeks.

Despite this fundraising difference, Republicans remain determined. They’re investing heavily in online, mail, and door-to-door campaigns to counter Harris’s financial lead. The race for the White House is becoming fiercely competitive as both sides strategically deploy their resources to win voters over.

TRUMP Assassination Attempt SUSPECT Laughs in Court: Shocking Behavior Revealed

18 September 2024 — Ryan W. Routh, accused of trying to assassinate former President Trump, appeared in court Monday. He was seen smiling and laughing with his defense lawyers. Florida prosecutor Dave Aronberg stated that Routh’s behavior does not indicate criminal insanity. “He fled after all, tried to get away and escape,” Aronberg noted. Routh was arrested near Palm City, Florida on September 15, 2024. A U.S. Secret Service agent spotted a rifle barrel through a fence at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach. Routh fled north on Interstate 95 toward his home in North Carolina. Aronberg highlighted the irony of Routh’s actions given his support for Ukraine against Russia. Despite understanding right from wrong in international conflicts, Routh allegedly attempted an evil act by targeting Trump. This undermines any potential insanity defense he might claim. Federal prosecutors have taken over the case as the investigation continues into the failed assassination plot against former President Trump.

Heightened security measures marked the event, reflecting increased threat levels. Trump focused on resilience and overcoming adversity in his speech, themes that resonated with supporters. This appearance is significant as Trump had been relatively quiet since the incident.

President Biden praised law enforcement for their heroic response, highlighting their role in maintaining public safety. Figures from both political sides acknowledged the bravery of the security forces involved. Investigations continue to uncover more details about the suspect and their motives.

The incident has sparked discussions about security protocols for public figures amid political tension. Trump’s return is seen as a defiant stand against threats to democracy and personal safety. The event underscores the volatile environment of contemporary American politics as investigations proceed.

TRUMP RALLY Draws Huge Crowd In Arizona: Supporters Ecstatic

24 August 2024 — Videos and pictures on social media show the arena, which holds 18,000 people, nearly full ahead of former President Donald Trump’s speech at the Turning Point Action rally. Supporters lined up for miles hoping to gain entry.

The venue previously hosted an event by Harris earlier this month, drawing a crowd of 15,000. The Trump rally comes shortly after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the suspension of his presidential campaign and urged blue state residents to vote for him while supporting Trump in battleground states.

Trump hinted at a “special guest” for the rally on Truth Social, leading many to speculate that it could be Kennedy. “Heading to Arizona where I will soon be speaking at Turning Point — BIG CROWD, AND EVEN BIGGER SURPRISE!” he posted.

MADURO SHOCKS With Sympathy for Trump After Assassination Attempt

15 July 2024 — Former President Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The shooter injured Trump and killed Corey Comperatore, a former fire chief.

Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro condemned the attack on Trump during his own campaign rally. Maduro’s comments were unusually sympathetic towards Trump, wishing him a "speedy recovery.

Maduro stated, “We have been adversaries but I wish President Trump health and a long life.” This marks a significant shift from his typical hostile rhetoric against the former U.S. president.

TRUMP FIGHTS Back: Lawyers Demand End to GAG Order in New York Case

05 June 2024 — Donald Trump’s legal team is requesting the removal of a gag order that prevents him from commenting on witnesses, jurors, and others involved in his criminal case. His lawyers argue that the restrictions on Trump’s First Amendment rights are no longer justified now that the trial has concluded.

Trump’s attorneys, Todd Blanche and Emil Bove, emphasized the need for “unrestrained campaign advocacy,” especially after President Joe Biden’s public comments about the verdict. They also pointed out ongoing criticism from Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels as reasons to lift the gag order.

The Manhattan district attorney’s office declined to comment on this request. Judge Juan M. Merchan initially issued the gag order before the trial started due to concerns about Trump attacking those involved in his cases.

Merchan later expanded it to include comments about his own family after Trump targeted his daughter online. While remarks about Merchan and District Attorney Alvin Bragg are permitted, statements regarding court staff and Bragg’s prosecution team remain prohibited under the current gag order.

“Mia Farrow DEFENDS Stormy Daniels Amid VICIOUS Online Attacks”

08 May 2024 — Mia Farrow recently stood up for Stormy Daniels on X, responding to harsh comments about Daniels’s background in adult films. Farrow argued that being an adult film star does not make someone a “hooker,” and she praised Daniels’s roles as a wife and mother. She urged people to respect personal choices and careers, no matter what others think.

Farrow also addressed serious allegations made by Daniels that sounded like sexual assault. She portrayed Daniels as a resilient woman who might not want to seem weak or victimized. This adds depth to how people see Daniels, beyond just her job.

Critics on X quickly questioned Daniels’s honesty, with one user crudely saying you can’t trust someone who “screws for money.” These remarks led to more debates about prejudice against women in the adult entertainment field. Farrow challenged these opinions by calling for greater understanding of each person’s unique situation and career choice.

NOEM’S Presidential Dreams Shattered by Dog Debacle

29 April 2024 — Governor Kristi Noem, once seen as a likely choice for Donald Trump’s vice presidential running mate, now faces a major hurdle. In her memoir “No Going Back,” she shares a story about her aggressive dog, Cricket. The dog caused chaos on a hunting trip and even attacked a neighbor’s chickens. This incident paints an unflattering picture of chaos under her watch.

Noem describes Cricket as having an “aggressive personality” and behaving like a “trained assassin.” These words come from her own book, which was supposed to enhance her political image. Instead, it underscores significant issues of control — both over the dog and perhaps within her own home.

The situation forced Noem to declare the dog “untrainable” and dangerous. This revelation could damage her appeal among voters who prize personal responsibility and leadership skills. It casts doubt on her ability to manage more significant responsibilities in higher office roles.

This event could severely affect Noem’s future in politics, including any plans for cabinet positions or presidential aspirations in 2028. Her attempt to appear relatable in the book might instead highlight critical lapses in judgment that are vital for national leadership roles.

TRUMP SURGES Ahead in Michigan: Biden’s Struggle to Secure Base Exposed

25 March 2024 — A recent trial ballot in Michigan has revealed a surprising lead for Trump over Biden, with 47 percent favoring the former president compared to 44 percent for the incumbent. This result falls within the survey’s ±3 percent margin of error, leaving nine percent of voters still undecided.

In a more complex five-way trial ballot test, Trump maintains his lead at 44 percent against Biden’s 42 percent. The remaining votes are split among independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein, and independent Cornel West.

Steve Mitchell, president of Mitchell Research, attributes Trump’s lead to Biden’s lackluster support from African Americans and younger voters. He forecasts a nail-biting contest ahead as the victory will likely hinge on which candidate can rally their base more effectively.

In a head-to-head choice between Trump and Biden, an overwhelming 90 percent of Republican Michiganders back Trump while only 84 percent of Democrats support Biden. This poll report underscores an uncomfortable situation for Biden as he loses a significant 12 percent chunk of his vote to former President Trump.

ITALY’S Meloni Demands Justice Over Deepfake Porn Scandal

22 March 2024 — Giorgia Meloni, the leader of Italy’s Brothers of Italy party, is seeking justice after falling victim to a degrading deepfake pornography scandal. She has demanded €100,000 ($108,250) in damages following the discovery of explicit videos featuring her likeness online.

These disturbing videos were reportedly crafted by a father-son duo from Sassari, Italy back in 2020 before Meloni ascended to the prime minister’s office. The two are now facing serious accusations of defamation and video manipulation — they allegedly replaced the face of a porn actress with that of Meloni and subsequently published this content on an American website.

The offensive material was recently unearthed by Meloni’s team leading to an immediate filing of a complaint. According to Italian law, defamation can be treated as a criminal offense and carries potential sentencing. The Italian Prime Minister is scheduled to testify in court on July 2nd about this shocking incident.

“The compensation I have requested will be donated to charity,” stated Meloni’s attorney as reported by la Repubblica.

FREEBIES and SECRET Meetings: Biden’s Business Associate Spills The Beans

31 January 2024 — Eric Schwerin, a former business associate of the Biden family, made some startling admissions during a House impeachment inquiry deposition on Tuesday. He confessed to offering Joe Biden free professional services and having multiple meetings with him.

In addition to these revelations, Schwerin disclosed his appointment to the Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage board during Obama-Biden’s tenure. Coincidentally, Elizabeth Naftali, a Democrat donor who also purchased Hunter Biden’s art, was appointed to this same board after her acquisition.

Despite these disclosures, Schwerin maintains he had no insight into key foreign payments made to the Bidens. As former president of Rosemont Seneca Partners — a fund established by Hunter Biden that brokered profitable business deals in Russia, Ukraine, China and Romania — this claim raises eyebrows.

House investigators are now digging deeper into Schwerin’s involvement in these overseas business transactions and any knowledge or participation by Joe Biden himself. Visitor logs reveal that Schwerin stepped foot in the White House no less than 27 times during Joe Biden’s vice presidency.

TRUMP’S EYE on Burgum: A Potential Power Player in Second Administration

21 January 2024 — Doug Burgum, the Governor of North Dakota, has recently been spotlighted by former President Trump as a potential key player for his possible second term. This news emerged following Trump’s unprecedented victory in the Iowa Caucuses.

Responding to conjecture about a potential role in Trump’s administration, Burgum, who had previously endorsed Trump just before the Iowa Caucuses said, “Well, it’s very flattering... but you know, these are all hypotheticals.”

The Governor underscored his dedication to his current position and to backing Trump’s nomination and election endeavors. He further explained that his previous campaign was motivated by concerns about the economy, energy and national security issues that America is facing.

EPSTEIN Papers REVEAL: High-Profile Figures HIT With Shocking Allegations

10 January 2024 — The final batch of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein from a 2015 lawsuit has been unsealed. These papers reveal startling accusations against several well-known individuals. Virginia Giuffre, the accuser in the case, named Bill Richardson, Marvin Minsky, and Les Wexner as participants in sex trafficking during her 2016 deposition. These names were previously hidden in an earlier version of the document.

Jean-Luc Brunel and Glenn Dubin are also implicated in these recent filings. Brunel passed away while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Dubin’s allegations were previously made public and he has since denied them. Richardson is known for his roles as former Democratic governor of New Mexico and President Clinton’s ambassador to the United Nations.

Minsky was a respected computer scientist at MIT who died in 2016. Wexner is recognized as the founder of Limited Brands and ex-CEO of Victoria’s Secret. Despite these serious allegations, no charges have been filed against Wexner who cut ties with Epstein back in 2007.

Giuffre alleges she had numerous sexual encounters with Wexner including one incident involving another victim, Sarah Kellen. However, it remains uncertain why certain parts of Giuffre’s deposition needed to be redacted before being stricken from record and re-filed.

TRUMP’S Troubled Past: Biden’s Team Shifts Focus Ahead of 2024 Showdown

02 January 2024 — President Joe Biden’s team is adjusting their strategy for the 2024 campaign. Instead of solely spotlighting the incumbent Democrat, they’re turning attention to former President Donald Trump’s contentious record. This move follows recent polls showing Trump leading Biden in seven swing states and gaining traction among younger voters.

Trump, despite grappling with multiple criminal and civil charges, continues to be a GOP favorite. The aim of Biden’s aides is to use his disputed record and legal allegations as a lens through which voters can view the potential consequences of another four-year term under Trump.

Currently, Trump faces four criminal indictments and is embroiled in a civil fraud lawsuit in New York. Regardless of these trials’ outcomes, he could still make a run for office even if convicted — unless legal contests or state ballot requirements prevent him from doing so. However, rather than dwelling on the outcome of Trump’s cases, Biden’s team plans to underscore what another term would mean for American citizens.

A senior campaign aide noted that while Trump may succeed in mobilizing his base with extreme rhetoric, their strategy will highlight how such extremism could negatively affect Americans. The focus will be on the potential adverse impact of another term under Trump rather than his personal legal battles.

UNSHAKEN BIDEN Keeps Hunter Close Amidst Impeachment Storm: A Bold Statement or Blind Love?

21 December 2023 — President Joe Biden remains steadfast in his support for his son, Hunter Biden, despite the ongoing impeachment investigation into Hunter’s overseas business dealings. On Monday, the Bidens were spotted sharing a meal with friends before Hunter accompanied the first family on their return flight from Delaware on Air Force One and Marine One.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refuted claims that the administration was trying to hide Hunter by not listing him on passenger rosters shared with journalists. She underscored that it has been a longstanding tradition for presidents’ family members to travel with them, and this custom is not going away anytime soon.

Hunter’s public appearances in front of press photographers and reporters could signify President Biden’s readiness to openly back his son. This support is unwavering even as Hunter faces potential criminal charges and defies a congressional subpoena. Throughout his presidency, President Biden has consistently voiced pride in his son.

SENATE SCANDAL: Staffer Dismissed After Shocking Footage Surfaces

17 December 2023 — A scandal has erupted in the Senate. Breitbart News recently exposed footage of a staffer, Aidan Maese-Czeropski, involved in explicit sexual acts within a Senate hearing room. This room is typically used for significant events like Supreme Court nominations.

The implicated staffer was part of Sen. Ben Cardin’s (D-MD) office and has been let go since the incident. After his dismissal, Cardin’s office released a brief statement: “We will not comment further on this personnel issue.”

In reaction to the controversy, Maese-Czeropski posted a statement on LinkedIn blaming the backlash on homophobia. He admitted that some past actions may have shown poor judgment but insisted he would never disrespect his workplace.

Maese-Czeropski also stated that any attempts to distort his actions are false and declared intentions to explore legal avenues concerning these issues.

Hollywood’s RISING STAR, Jonathan Majors, Faces Career-Ending Assault Trial

05 December 2023 — Jonathan Majors, a burgeoning talent in Hollywood, is currently embroiled in an assault trial in Manhattan. The case centers around an alleged violent dispute with his former girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, inside a car.

Prosecutors argue that Majors broke Jabbari’s middle finger and hit her on the side of the head after she discovered a romantic text from another woman on his phone.

Majors’ defense attorney contends that he was actually the victim and suffered injuries during Jabbari’s attack. Furthermore, they suggest these accusations are part of a vindictive scheme by Jabbari to sabotage Major’s career following their breakup.

The consequences are severe for 34-year-old Majors who risks up to one year behind bars if found guilty. Since his arrest in March, an advertising campaign featuring him for the U.S. Army has been withdrawn and the launch of “Magazine Dreams,” a Sundance award-winning film he featured in, has been delayed.

TRUMP BACKLASH: Former Arkansas Governor Booed at Florida Freedom Summit Over Anti-Trump Remarks

06 November 2023 — Asa Hutchinson, the former governor of Arkansas, was met with a chorus of boos during his speech at the Florida Freedom Summit. This strong reaction from the crowd was triggered when Hutchinson hinted that Donald Trump could potentially face a felony conviction by a jury next year.

Having served as both a federal prosecutor and representative, Hutchinson is currently not making any waves in the Republican primary race with his polling numbers flatlining at zero percent. His remarks sparked widespread disapproval among the more than 3,000 attendees present at the event.

Despite facing an unfavorable response from his audience, Hutchinson didn’t back down. He maintained that Trump’s potential legal troubles could sway independent voters’ view of the party and influence down-ticket races for Congress and Senate.

TRUMP’S FIGHT: The Fourteenth Amendment Takes Center Stage in Ballot Battle

03 November 2023 — A brewing legal battle is placing the spotlight on the Fourteenth Amendment’s “Insurrection Clause”. Plaintiffs argue that President Trump’s actions on January 6, 2021, should bar him from appearing on future ballots.

This legal challenge is not unique to one state. Similar cases are popping up across the country, including Colorado. Here, Judge Sarah Wallace, an appointee of Democrat Governor Jared Polis, presides over the case. There is a possibility that this issue may escalate to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Trump’s defense team counters by asserting that this amendment doesn’t extend to presidents. They highlight that while it mentions Senators and Representatives among others, it does not explicitly include presidents. The presidential oath has its own separate provision in the Constitution.
