TRUMP’S Triumph Ignites Outrage: Just Stop OIL Strikes Back
— 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’S Triumph: Disillusioned Voters Reject Harris-Biden Agenda
— Former President Donald Trump has made a comeback to the White House, highlighting widespread dissatisfaction with Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden’s nearly four-year term. Many voters, unhappy with America’s path, embraced Trump’s bold approach. AP VoteCast showed about 3 in 10 voters wanted a complete government overhaul.
Economic concerns were key in Trump’s victory, overshadowing issues like democracy and abortion protections favored by Harris’ supporters. Voters worried about the economy supported stronger immigration enforcement and believed Trump was better suited to tackle economic challenges. This sentiment was strong in battleground states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
Even though he won the electoral college, some voters had reservations about Trump’s potential use of power. A notable number expressed concern over possible authoritarianism under his leadership. Yet more than 1 in 10 concerned voters still backed him despite these fears.
Inflation anxiety was a major concern nationwide as families felt their financial situations worsening since the last election cycle. The rising cost of living remained an urgent issue for many Americans struggling with higher prices on essentials like groceries and housing costs. These economic pressures greatly boosted Trump’s appeal among disenchanted voters seeking change.
TRUMP’S Triumph: World Leaders Cheer His Return
— Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quickly congratulated Donald Trump on his HISTORIC return to the White House. Netanyahu, facing challenges with Iran, shared his excitement on X. He stressed the renewed alliance between Israel and America under Trump’s leadership.
Fox News announced Trump’s victory early Wednesday morning, marking a significant political comeback. World leaders swiftly offered their congratulations on X, showing international readiness for collaboration. French President Emmanuel Macron expressed eagerness to work with Trump again for global peace and prosperity.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban celebrated Trump’s win as a monumental comeback in U.S. political history. Orban highlighted the importance of this victory for global politics, aligning with his own border control policies. Fox News reported Trump’s victory over Harris in Wisconsin, flipping a key state back to Republican control.
TRUMP And HARRIS Neck-And-Neck: What’s Behind the Poll Shocker?
— 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?
— 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.
Harris’s SHIFTING Fracking Stance ALARMS Conservatives
— Co-host John Roberts aired a clip of Bernie Sanders saying Kamala Harris is being pragmatic to win the election, despite her past views. Roberts then questioned if Harris would revert to opposing fracking if elected.
Philippe Reines responded by suggesting that Sanders’ comments reflect Harris’s current stance on fracking, even though she previously opposed it. He emphasized that candidates often change their positions based on electoral needs and context.
Reines believes Harris is aligning with President Biden’s record to gain support from undecided voters. He expressed confidence in this strategy as a winning approach for the election.
TRUMP RALLY Draws Huge Crowd In Arizona: Supporters Ecstatic
— 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.
ROBERT F Kennedy JR Shocks Nation: Endorses Trump
— Robert F. Kennedy Jr. suspended his presidential campaign on Friday and endorsed Republican nominee Donald Trump. Speaking in Arizona, Kennedy expressed concerns that continuing his campaign would aid Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.
Kennedy’s support had declined in recent polls as he struggled to find his place in a race reshaped by President Joe Biden’s exit and Harris’ nomination. Recent polls showed Kennedy’s support hovering in the mid-single digits, far from earlier double-digit figures.
A July AP-NORC poll revealed Americans were split on their views of Kennedy, with Republicans more likely to view him favorably than Democrats or independents. Those with a positive impression of Kennedy also tended to favor Trump over Harris by a significant margin.
NETANYAHU and TRUMP Reunite: What’s at Stake for US-Israel Relations
— Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to meet former President Trump on Friday at Mar-a-Lago. The meeting aims to repair their fractured relationship after Netanyahu congratulated President Biden following the 2020 election. Trump had expressed his displeasure, saying, “I haven’t spoken to him since,” and adding a harsh remark.
Netanyahu’s tweet congratulating Biden and Harris highlighted his long-standing relationship with Biden and expressed a desire to strengthen the US-Israel alliance. This move angered Trump, who felt betrayed by the Israeli leader’s swift acknowledgment of Biden’s victory.
In an effort to mend ties, Netanyahu praised Trump during a speech to Congress on Thursday. He thanked Trump for his leadership in brokering the Abraham Accords and condemned political violence against democracy.
The Abraham Accords, facilitated by Trump’s administration, normalized diplomatic relations between Israel and several Sunni Arab countries including the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco. Netanyahu’s tribute underscores the importance of Trump’s Middle East achievements in their upcoming meeting.
HARRIS ENTERS 2024 Race: National Security Fears Rise
— Kamala Harris has entered the race for the White House following President Biden’s announcement that he will not seek re-election. This sudden shift has raised alarms among national security experts who worry that adversaries like Russia, China, and Iran may exploit the “chaos” to their advantage.
These nations have shown little outward reaction to Biden’s withdrawal, but concerns remain high about potential changes in U.S. force posture abroad. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov mentioned that Moscow was “not very surprised” by Biden’s decision and emphasized Russia’s focus on its military operations in Ukraine.
With four months until the elections, much can change, making it crucial for America to stay vigilant and monitor developments closely. The Democratic Party now faces the challenge of building a strong platform against Republican candidate Donald Trump amid these geopolitical tensions.
TRUMP’S Unwavering Support For Israel Cheered At GOP Convention
— Matt Brooks, CEO of the Republican Jewish Coalition, spoke passionately at the 2024 Republican National Convention. He emphasized Trump’s strong support for Israel and criticized Biden’s foreign policy failures. “Let me hear you cheer if you support Israel!” Brooks urged, drawing loud cheers from the crowd.
Brooks contrasted the GOP’s stance with that of Democrats, claiming a pro-Israel speech would be booed at their convention. Attendees proudly displayed Israeli flags as Brooks highlighted Trump’s achievements, including moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem and delivering the Abraham Accords.
The convention celebrated Trump’s formal nomination as the Republican presidential candidate alongside running mate J.D. Vance. This event followed a failed assassination attempt on Trump just days earlier, adding to the triumphalist atmosphere in Milwaukee.
Republicans aim to leverage dissatisfaction within the Jewish community over Biden’s perceived lack of support for Israel and tolerance of antisemitism on campuses and in cities. “This election is a critical moment for the American Jewish community,” Brooks stated, urging voters to continue Trump’s pro-Israel legacy and repair U.S.-Israel relations after what he described as four disastrous years under Biden.
MADURO SHOCKS With Sympathy for Trump After Assassination Attempt
— 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.
NOEM’S Presidential Dreams Shattered by Dog Debacle
— 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’S EYE on Burgum: A Potential Power Player in Second Administration
— 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.
TRUMP’S MAGA Wave Sparks Global Conservative Populist Triumphs
— In a recent interview at Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump stated that his MAGA-Trump movement is driving a global surge of conservative populist victories. He pointed to Argentina’s new president, Javier Milei, as an example. Milei reportedly thanked Trump for laying the groundwork with his policies. The former US president playfully suggested that Milei’s “Make Argentina Great Again” slogan could also be shortened to MAGA.
Trump’s 2016 triumph over Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton was not a singular occurrence. It was preceded by significant wins for conservative populists worldwide, such as the Brexit referendum in the UK and Jimmy Morales’s victory in Guatemala’s presidential race. These successes helped ignite the movement that ultimately led to Trump’s ascendancy.
As we approach 2024, conservative populists are making further strides globally. Italy now boasts Giorgia Meloni as Prime Minister and Geert Wilders’ PVV party leads polls in Netherlands. With these victories and more expected throughout the year, it appears a global sweep for conservative populists is on the cards leading up to Trump’s anticipated rematch with Democrat President Joe Biden.
TRUMP’S Troubled Past: Biden’s Team Shifts Focus Ahead of 2024 Showdown
— 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.
EXPOSED: BIDEN and Elites’ Unsettling Alliance with China
— President Joe Biden’s recent actions have stirred up a storm of controversy. His apparent dismissal of the idea of “decoupling” from China is causing concern among conservatives. These revelations come from a new book, Controligarchs: Exposing the Billionaire Class, Their Secret Deals, and the Globalist Plot to Dominate Your Life.
The book suggests that global elites and politicians like Biden and California Governor Gavin Newsom are actively pushing for a closer resemblance between the U.S. and its Communist adversary. It alleges that these individuals view Beijing’s elites not as threats or rivals but as business partners.
Among those named in these claims are influential figures such as BlackRock’s Larry Fink, Apple’s Tim Cook, and Blackstone’s Stephen Schwarzman. These business leaders were reportedly present at a dinner honoring Chinese Communist Party Leader Xi Jinping where they stood in applause for Chairman Xi.
This revelation comes at a time when concerns over China’s influence on global politics are growing. It highlights the urgent need for transparency in dealings between American leaders and foreign powers.
TRUMP BACKLASH: Former Arkansas Governor Booed at Florida Freedom Summit Over Anti-Trump Remarks
— 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
— 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.
Ricky Vaughn’s TWISTED TALE: The Shocking Misinformation Campaign in the 2016 Election
— Douglass Mackey, widely recognized as “Ricky Vaughn,” was handed a seven-month prison sentence this Wednesday. His crime? Deliberately misleading Hillary Clinton’s supporters into believing they could cast their votes in the 2016 presidential election via text messages or social media posts.
Mackey faced prosecution under the Ku Klux Klan Act, a law enacted during the Reconstruction era to combat KKK efforts aimed at hindering newly freed Blacks from voting. Despite his attempts to overturn the verdict or secure a new trial, U.S. District Judge Ann Donnelly dismissed Mackey’s bid prior to his sentencing.
In 2015, Mackey assumed the alias “Ricky Vaughn” and started posting on Twitter. He quickly amassed a following of 51,000 and became one of the most influential voices discussing the 2016 presidential election according to an M.I.T list. Federal prosecutors in New York argued that Mackey aimed to create hashtags that would stir up as much chaos as possible by generating controversy targeted at Hillary Clinton.
On November 1, 2016, at precisely 5:30 p.m., Mackey unleashed his first tweet falsely asserting that people could register their vote by texting from their phones. This marked the start of a series of additional misleading tweets

ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT on Trump Thwarted: Heroic Action Saves Lives
— A suspect armed with a weapon tried to target former President Donald Trump during a public appearance in October 2023. The individual never had a line of sight and was unable to fire any shots. This is the second assassination attempt on Trump, raising serious security concerns.
The Secret Service and local law enforcement quickly apprehended the suspect, who was found with a firearm but did not discharge it. Their swift action prevented what could have been catastrophic, ensuring Trump’s safety and that of those present.
Ongoing investigations aim to determine the suspect’s motive and any affiliations. Authorities are also reviewing Trump’s security protocols to identify potential lapses and enhance future measures. This incident highlights the persistent risks faced by high-profile political figures like Trump.
Public reactions vary, with supporters relieved over Trump’s safety while critics cite the divisive political climate as a factor. The incident has reignited debates about political violence and the need for rigorous security for public officials as details continue to emerge from law enforcement agencies.
