PALM BEACH, Fla. (NewsNation) — With dueling events this weekend, some of the nation’s biggest GOP donors will have to choose between former President Donald Trump or former presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Trump is expected to attend a major joint fundraiser between his campaign and the RNC on Saturday. A campaign source confirmed to NewsNation that it will be hosted at a private residence in Palm Beach. Expectations are high for Trump to offset President Joe Biden’s recent $25 million fundraiser, with the Trump campaign anticipating an estimated $43 million fundraising haul Saturday. That’s an effort that could...

Black Chicagoans are increasing their calls to “turn Chicago red” in the coming elections in response to the growing border crisis that has flooded their neighborhoods with illegal aliens at the behest of “welcoming” Mayor Brandon Johnson. Windy City residents Cata Truss and Mark Carter appeared on Fox & Friends First on Jan. 5 with the vow to vote for Republicans in 2024 after the massive failure of Mayor Johnson and the Chicago City Council to deal with the influx of illegal immigrants.

Let this serve as a warning to the pro-abortion conservatives: compromising on innocent life opens Pandora’s Box and unleashes murder. From a piece published at The National Post just five days ago and authored by Tristin Hopper:Just as Ottawa publicly acknowledges that its assisted suicide regime might have gone too far, critics have highlighted the existence of a little-known medical assistance in dying children’s activity book that was funded by the Canadian government.We’ve seen dystopian stories of who exactly Trudeau’s government has targeted with their euthanasia program — those suffering from hearing loss, the poor, etc. — but now, children...

Golf Digest is taking a lot of heat for its recent tweet ranking U.S. presidents by their golf handicaps. The tweet is being blasted, most especially because it awarded Donald Trump its top score of 2.8 while handing Joe Biden the number two slot at 6.7. Detractors went wild claiming that neither of the two ratings could be correct. Many commenters on the magazine’s tweet blasted Donald Trump as a “liar” and used that as a basis to doubt the 2.8 handicap rating: Of note, sports writer and serial fabulist Rick Reilly also chimed in on the magazine’s scores, writing,...

WEST HOLLYWOOD—What if Adolf Hitler had just been an actor? In another rendition of history, he had all the makings for it. David Bowie, in his oft-forgotten national socialist phase, called Der Fuhrer “one of the first rock stars.” Bowie later said he was on a lot of cocaine. Pop historians would say as much of the high command. But it’s there: Hitler had “the look.” Not starting quarterback stuff (or whatever the non-Amerikaner equivalent), but a true aesthete’s presentation that was straight out of Hollywood. Was he even good-looking? It doesn’t matter, because we could not—still cannot—look away.

Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri was killed Monday by America’s secretive and gruesome R9X Hellfire missile — which is also known as the “flying Ginsu.” The strangest variant in the Hellfire family of missiles — built as a precision weapon of targeted assassination — the R9X’s most distinguishing characteristic is that it doesn’t explode and simply uses its weight, momentum and blade-like appendages to kill. First revealed by the Wall Street Journal in 2019, the modified R9X trades the standard Hellfire’s explosive warhead for a halo of six metal fins that look like swords and are sharp enough to slice...

Legendary golfer Jack Nicklaus blasted the “cancel culture” that he says caused the PGA to yank the championship from Trump National Golf Course in Bedminster. This week, the pro golfer who won a record 18 major championships said that the tournament should not have been moved to Southern Hills in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Nicklaus said he likes PGA chief Seth Waugh but added that Waugh foolishly bowed to the cancel culture with the decision. “Seth didn’t need this job. He took the job because he thought he could give the PGA of America some good guidance,” Nicklaus told Fire Pit Collective....

Despite the hype, CNN’s Internet streaming service, CNN+, has already tanked in its first month online after hiring the likes of left-wing “sports” commentators Jemele Hill and serial fabulist Rex Chapman. CNN’s streaming service launched only two weeks ago to great fanfare, but now it is being reported that the company is already gutting its investment into the service by millions. Even left-wing Axios noted that the “dramatic cut” is being made “in response to low adoption,” i.e., disastrously low subscription levels. CNN is now owned by WarnerMedia just as it is merging with Discovery, and some of the execs...

The publicly funded University of North Texas was dealt a blow in court after a federal judge said school officials can be held responsible for firing employees for exercising their right of free speech. In his 69-page order of March 11, Judge Sean Jordan, of the United States District Court for Eastern Texas, found that university officials should have known that math professor Nathaniel Hiers’ speech “touched on a matter of public concern and that discontinuing his employment because of his speech violated the First Amendment,” before they fired him for going public with his disagreement with the left-wing concept...

Pro Football Hall of Famer and Jackson State football coach Deion Sanders suffered the amputation of two toes on his left foot and narrowly escaped a lower leg amputation after contracting severe blood clots in his leg. The 54-year-old coach had entered a Mississippi hospital with three “life-threatening” femoral arterial blood clots, and at one point, he feared that he would lose his lower leg to the condition. Sanders told fans of his medical issues in which he said he is “thankful for GOD” for getting him through the frightening times. “I endured a lot while I was in the...

Even as the White House claims that Joe Biden is not soft on crime, it has been reported that his administration has the potential to give nearly $200 million to a Soros-linked group to help criminal illegals escape punishment. Federal budget watchdog Open the Books revealed that Biden’s Department of Health and Human Services awarded a $164 million contract to left-wing advocacy organization Vera Institute of Justice to fund lawyers for illegal aliens and undocumented minors, according to Just the News. The award started as a $158 million contract in 2021, but this year HHS added an additional $6 million...

To cap off another year of pushing falshoods and half-truths, left-wing Hollywood actress-singer Barbra Streisand insisted that Joe Biden’s economic record is the “best in 40 years.” Streisand jumped to her Twitter account to lay this gem on her fans: “Joe Biden’s economic record in his first year is the best in 40 years. The media largely ignores this.”

The family of a Dallas' QAnon cult member is sounding the alarm. Multiple members of the Leek family confirmed that their relative, who left her husband and children behind in Delaware to follow a fringe QAnon cult leader to Dallas last month, has been drinking a chemical cocktail containing chlorine dioxide, an industrial disinfectant, among other substances. Their relative has been drinking this cocktail alongside her fellow cult members and has been the one to mix it up and distribute it amongst the group as well, says family, who have declined to reveal the name of their relative in the...

I was just sent this old article, have NO IDEA why, by my iPhone. I believe the author actually intended to be serious? All I can say is, this is EXACTLY why I am living overseas now. For real.

The social network, under fire for spreading misinformation and other issues, said the change was part of its bet on a next digital frontier called the metaverse.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has firmly dug in on refusing GOP help to renew the US's ability to pay off its bills, known as the debt ceiling. Instead, the Kentucky Republican said it's up to Democrats to raise it in order to finance their social spending plans on healthcare, education, and childcare. He insists he's not "bluffing." But the conundrum could have a coin-sized solution. A loophole in the law that prescribes the types of coins that can legally be minted in the US theoretically allows the Treasury Department to mint a $1 trillion platinum coin, deposit it at...

President Biden finished his campaign-style Saturday trip to Michigan with a cherry on top. The Democrat met with local officials and voters at a cherry farm near the Traverse City National Cherry Festival, an event that has also attracted Presidents Herbert Hoover and Gerald Ford. He chatted with two Guatemalan couples who worked on the farm for 35 years about a potential pathway to citizenship for farmworkers, before eating a cherry out of their basket.

No decent, thoughtful human being wants to be accused of racism. Most decent, thoughtful human beings are guilty of racism. Of course, it’s usually unconscious, and it’s often hard to keep track of evolving language and social movements, of phrases in the vernacular that were perfectly acceptable ten years ago but are now taboo (and vice-versa). As writers, albeit pros or fanfic writers, or everyone in between, we use our words as tools, as toys, and sometimes, as weapons. It’s our responsibility to listen to new conversations, to keep abreast of the ever-changing socio-political climate, and above all, to think...
