The IRS agent union today endorsed Kamala Harris for President. “She supports the issues that matter most to our members,” said the IRS agent union president. No doubt. As Vice President, Harris cast the deciding vote to supersize the IRS, breaking the 50-50 Senate tie on the costly “Inflation Reduction Act” legislation. And the Harris-proposed tax increases will kill jobs in the private sector but create jobs for IRS agents. Agents certainly appreciate her call to make the IRS even larger and more powerful if she wins the presidency. Agents will be hired and deployed to implement the $5 trillion...

Democrats are reportedly afraid that the Teamster Union’s recent refusal to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for president may be a warning sign of a victory for former President Donald Trump, according to several pro-Harris union officials and Democrat strategists and allies. In the aftermath of the Teamster’s Union, which represents over one million union workers, announcing that it would not be endorsing any candidate, despite polling showing that a large portion of its union members support Trump, Democrats are reportedly taking it as a warning sign, according to Politico.

I don’t believe that many, if any, of those who’ve participated in the trend are aware that they’re mainstreaming Trump’s claims, but that doesn’t mean it’s not happening. In fact if it’s as successful as some of his supporters think then Trump will end up the winner of a debate that many have claimed he lost.

In the aftermath of the debate on Tuesday, the media promptly declared Kamala Harris the winner. Perhaps stylistically, she had an edge, but when it came to resonating with undecided and independent voters, multiple focus groups showed that Trump was the candidate who managed to succeed on that front. A new Insider Poll out of Michigan reinforces Trump’s momentum, showing him ahead 49 percent to Harris’s 48 percent. ... This is significant because Michigan and Wisconsin are considered some of Kamala Harris’s strongest chances among the swing states, yet the race remains razor thin. Pennsylvania is widely considered the tipping-point...

Donald Trump received a two-point bump in battleground state polling after Tuesday’s debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, a poll released Thursday shows. The polling memo obtained by Breitbart News shows Trump leading Harris by three points, 50%-47%, in a head-to-head ballot. “A Poll has just been released by Highly Respected Pollster, Tony Fabrizio, showing that I am up THREE POINTS after the Debate,” Trump said in a statement. “These are largely Independent Voters, who are tired of watching our Country go down, and want to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

...An official survey for Daily Express US, conducted by the Democracy Institute, found 45% of respondents believed Trump had won, while 34% handed victory to the Vice President. One-fifth (21%) said it was a draw. The telephone poll surveyed 600 likely American voters in the hours immediately after the debate on ABC

BREAKING REPORT: New post debate CSPAN POLL currently has Trump WINNING THE DEBATE by almost 35 points..

Data revealed by The Wall Street Journal shows the true extent of havoc Bidenomics has wrecked on the U.S. economy. Even as the Dow Jones Industrial Average surpassed 40,000 points, the economy under Joe Biden‘s tenure in the White House has struggled to grow beyond a sluggish rate. Despite the seeming market success that has recently occurred under the Biden government, the numbers belie just how successful investors were under former President Donald J. Trump.

Claims His Former Colleague Alvin Bragg's Case is "Nonsense" And Alleges He Was "Stacking Charges" “He[Alvin Bragg] was just stacking charges and rearranging things just to make it fit a case.” “I think the case is nonsense.”

Donald Trump is outlining his economic platform during a speech in New York City on Thursday. The former president's policies will include billionaire Elon Musk's recommendation to create a government efficiency commission to conduct 'a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government.' The remarks are meant to more specifically detail Trump's plans for the future of the economy as the issue is often cited by voters as their No. 1 issue this election cycle. And Trump holds an advantage over Vice President Kamala Harris among voters who think he would better handle the economy and inflation crisis....

Former President Donald Trump challenged President Biden to another presidential debate — this time with fewer rules and no moderators — where Biden can prove his “competence or lack thereof.” The 78-year-old presumptive GOP presidential nominee called for the “no holds barred” debate in a post on Truth Social Thursday afternoon, a week after Biden’s first debacle. “I have the answer to the Crooked Joe Biden Incompetence Puzzle — Let’s do another Debate, but this time, no holds barred,” Trump said in a post. “An all-on discussion, with just the two of us on stage, talking about the future of...

Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. President Trump’s sentencing is scheduled for July 11th, less than a month away. Of course, it is no secret why Judge Merchan decided on this particular date: it takes place four days before the Republican National Convention is set to begin, on July 15th. The hope, naturally, is that Judge Merchan – in collusion with District Attorney Bragg and Joe Biden’s Justice Department – will sentence President Trump, either by putting him behind bars or at the very least, on house arrest – thus denying him the opportunity to appear at the RNC in-person....

Former President Donald Trump won the second Republican debate on Wednesday night by simply staying away, according to a snap poll of viewers for DailyMail.com. But there was good news for challenger Ron DeSantis who was declared the most 'presidential' and the most 'competent' of the candidates who took the stage at the Ronald Reagan presidential library in California. Analysts said DeSantis put in a more assured performance than the first debate when he disappeared from sight at times. This time, he dinged Trump directly and leant into his record as Florida governor to describe how he would lead the...

Viewers of the second Republican National Committee (RNC) debate blasted the RNC as well as Fox News for including Univision as a partner in the event. The debate kicked off with Univision anchor Ilia Calderón opening up the debate by speaking Spanish, telling viewers that the candidates are trying to win them over. [cut] But the irritation of the inclusion of Univision only grew throughout the night, as moderators asked about “gun violence,” amnesty, Obamacare, and more. “It’s a good thing Univision is an official media partner of this debate so issues that matter Republican voters are covered — said...

Judge Aileen Cannon on Thursday ruled in favor of Trump and rejected Special Master Raymond Dearie’s request to have Trump’s legal team “verify that the government’s inventory log of seized items is accurate.” ABC News reported.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, who earned former President Donald Trump’s primary-race endorsement in April, is going down in flames according to a new GOP poll. Republican-affiliated Public Opinion Strategies reports that surgeon-turned-TV-host Dr. Oz trails Democrat John Fetterman by nearly 20 points!Trump gave Oz his “complete and total endorsement” before the wide-open GOP primary of six candidates, a move that probably sealed the deal with Pennsylvania Republicans. The doc won in a squeaker, barely beating out second-place finisher David McCormick, 31.2% to 31.1%. The former president praised Oz’s positions on abortion, crime, the Second Amendment, border security, the military, education, energy...

Dr. Mehmet Oz, known professionally as Dr. Oz, won Pennsylvania’s Republican Senate primary election on Friday after opposing candidate Dave McCormick conceded. According to the Associated Press, McCormick realized that despite an ongoing state recount, he would not receive enough votes to beat Oz. “It’s now clear to me with the recount now largely complete that we have a nominee,” McCormick said, according to the AP. “Tonight is really about all us coming together.” Since the recount remains underway, the race has not officially been called by the AP. Oz’s political victory comes after an extremely tight race between himself...
