The former US President is now, in the eyes of many Republicans who were shying away from him, the victim of an egregious attempt by a democrat administration to politicize the justice system. As one former Republican official put it, if Mr Trump is now now convicted of a crime, then "you have martyred him and guaranteed him the Republican nomination.

VIDEOJimmy Dore might be a leftist but at least he is an HONEST leftist in stark contrast to that political chameleon grifter Joe Scarborough. Watch how Scarborough pretends there was nothing political about the raid on President Trump's Mar-a-Lago versus Dore seeing EXACTLY what this is REALLY about, namely a blatantly political maneuver to keep Trump from running in 2024.

When God wants to drill a man, And thrill a man, And skill a man, When God wants to mould a man To play the noblest part; When He yearns with all His heart To create so great and bold a man That all the world shall be amazed, Watch His methods, watch His ways!

How He hammers him and hurts him, And with mighty blows converts him Into trial shapes of clay which Only God understands; While his tortured heart is crying And he lifts beseeching hands! How He bends but...

Is this White House weaponizing the Justice Department and the FBI against political opponents?” Karine Jean-Pierre dodges and refuses to say no

If Donald Trump was going to run again, we assumed that the media would once again be the former president's largest pool of support, unwittingly, of course, with the nonstop negative coverage that would have only pushed more voters into his corner. Matt Taibbi noted that they're the "kingmakers of suck," arrogant, and more concerned with expounding on their moral superiority than covering the elections properly. Post-Russian collusion hoax, no one believes them, as evidenced by the appalling trust numbers the American public has given this industry over the past five or so years. That all ended last night. The...

Wade, is the sudden shift of the Hispanic vote away from Democrats toward the Republican Party. And yet another poll, this time the CBS/YouGov poll from last week, confirms...

Ever since President Trump announced that Mar-A-Lago had been raided by the FBI, we’ve been looking for answers. How did this happen? Why did this happen? Who knew about it, and when did they know about it? While we’ll likely find out more about who and when later, what we do know now is how it happened. New details have come to light about the judge who signed off on the search warrant that will make you sick to your stomach — and suggest this effort by the Biden administration to target Trump will backfire drastically. Miranda Devine of the...

Former President Donald Trump improperly kept several boxes of White House records at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida — including notes from North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un that the 45th president once dubbed “love letters” and a missive from former President Barack Obama, the Washington Post reported Monday.

ore than 24 hours after the FBI’s “unannounced raid” on former President Donald Trump’s home, some in Senate GOP leadership including Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell have refused to condemn the rogue agency’s actions against their party leader. While House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy rushed to condemn the Department of Justice’s “intolerable state of weaponized politicization” the night of the raid and even announced plans to “conduct immediate oversight of this department,” neither McConnell, Senate Republican Policy Committee Chair Roy Blunt, nor Senate Republican Whip John Thune had publicly mentioned a word to their constituents, the press, or their colleagues...

Media narratives are driven by trajectory. Things get better or worse. People rise and fall. Maybe there is an upstart sensation who threatens the establishment. Maybe there is a spectacular fall from grace. Maybe there is a comeback. Regardless of the story, the direction of movement is what matters.
