Russian President Vladimir Putin will not be calling former President Donald Trump after he was shot at at a campaign rally over the weekend, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Monday, as the Russian government accused the Biden administration of creating an atmosphere that led to the attack. "We do not at all think or believe that the attempt to eliminate presidential candidate Trump was organized by the current government, but the atmosphere that this administration created during the political struggle, the atmosphere around candidate Trump provoked what America is faced with today," Peskov said on Sunday. Chinese President Xi Jinping...

Former Secret Service officer Dan Bongino is perhaps the most well-placed person to comment on the failures surrounding the assassination attempt against Donald Trump at his rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday. Bongino called the incident “an apocalyptic security failure” by the Secret Service and called for the resignation of its Director, Kim Cheatle. Miraculously, Trump was slightly wounded in the shooting after the bullet grazed his ear, literally less than inches from striking him in the head. Tragically, one audience member sitting behind Trump was killed by a bullet, while several others were wounded, two critically, by the spray of...

Former President Donald Trump will announce his vice presidential pick Monday, he told Fox this morning. Trump has long teased who his running mate will be and has yet to reveal who it is, or specifically comment on who is strongly in consideration. Sources close to the Trump campaign previously told The Post that Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum are his top contenders, as well as Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.). His announcement lines up with the first day of the Republican National Convention, and comes two days after a gunman shot Trump in the ear...

Far-left MSNBC yanked its signature morning news program off the air following the attempt on Trump’s life by a Democrat donor on Saturday. CNN revealed that “Morning Joe,” which is hosted by Trump Derangement syndrome-suffering (TDS) suffering lovebirds Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, did not air Monday as details continue to roll in on one of the most horrifying and fateful days in American history. Sources told the news outlet that Cesar Conde, the chairman of NBCUniversal News Group, made the decision in conjunction with Rashida Jones, the president of MSNBC, and Scarborough and Brzezinski. MSNBC claimed in a statement...

If you want to know who has privilege in a society and who doesn’t, follow the anger. There are people in this country who can safely express their anger. And those who can’t. If you were angry that Trump won, your anger was socially acceptable. If you were angry that Biden took over, it wasn’t. Not all anger is created equal. Some anger is privileged rage. Good anger gets you a gig as a CNN commentator. Bad anger gets you hounded out of your job. Good anger isn’t described as anger at all. Instead it’s whitewashed as “passionate” or “courageous”....

It's a 1 hour 10 minute message with no punches pulled. The sermon starts with the video clip from Butler, PA of the attempted assassination. How many churches showed the clip yesterday of the attempted assassination on Saturday? How many churches in American even mentioned the attempted assassination yesterday? I would dare say that 95% plus of us Freepers have never heard a sermon like this. By the way, this is from a church in California. A Call to a Solemn Assembly Sermon Notes

The assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump paused the Democrat infighting about if President Joe Biden should remain the presumptive nominee of his party. Not one Democrat publicly came out against Biden since the violent attack on Saturday against Democracy, a positive sign for the president. The Democrat party, however, is far from united and may resume in the weeks leading up to the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in five weeks, Axios reported Monday: Privately, the conversations are raging. Biden has more work to do to convince donors and elected officials that he should be the party’s nominee. Donors...

Family Theater Before television, we listened to the radio for news, weather, sports, and entertainment. What we heard influenced us just as television influences us today. One of the weekly programs was “Family Theater” which repeated the theme; the family that prays together stays together. A January 1, 1948 episode titled “Another Year” in which J. Edgar Hoover's New Year’s address gave me pause because we did not heed his message, which is applicable today, July 15, 2024.J. Edgar Hoover

Several unhinged liberals have taken to TikTok to vent anger that former Donald Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday. The incident exposed a disturbing, violent rhetoric from many craze leftists, who suffered meltdowns on various social media platforms, that the shooter “didn’t finish the job.”

If all Secret Service radio communications are routinely recorded, then we would have proof whether this entire event if it was an intentional hit and who was responsible, especially if that record somehow turned up missing. From such a record, we would know whether and when the SS was informed of the shooter on the Glass Research building and that no order was issued to sweep Trump off the stage. The question of whether the Secret Service Rules of Engagement demanded the sniper on the roof behind Trump request permission to shoot still hangs. If SS had been notified of...

Jack Smith—who has nothing but a humiliating losing streak before SCOTUS—takes pot shots at Clarence Thomas for his concurring opinion in immunity decision that raised the unconstitutionality of Smith’s appointment. This is in response to Judge Cannon asking for additional briefing on immunity decision related to documents case in FLA. She is contemplating both a motion to dismiss on presidential immunity grounds (filed months ago) AND a motion to dismiss based on Smith’s unlawful appointment—which was the subject of a hearing last month. Of course Thomas’ opinion is relevant in this case but leave it to unaccountable, unelected, not Congress-approved...

A new terrorist movement is emerging in America. Just as every cell in the human body has a complete copy of our genetic code, so too every terrorist rally is a microcosm of the entire movement threatening America, Israel and the world. The mob that converged on Congregation Adas Torah in a Jewish neighborhood in West LA was smaller than the thousands that had terrorized communities in New York and London, but all the elements that make up the pro-terror side were represented outside the synagogue. The PLO terror flags waved by the rioters represented more than just the cause...

A federal judge in Texas has ruled that a 156-year-old ban on at-home distilling is unconstitutional, siding with a group that advocates for legalizing the ability of people to produce spirits like whiskey and bourbon for their personal consumption. U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman, an appointee of Republican former President Donald Trump in Fort Worth, on Wednesday agreed with, opens new tab the Hobby Distillers Association's lawyers that the longstanding ban exceeded Congress's taxing power and ran afoul of the U.S. Constitution's Commerce Clause.

A federal judge in Florida threw out the prosecution of former President Donald Trump on Monday in the “documents” case because she ruled that Special Counsel Jack Smith had not been appointed in a constitutional or lawful manner. Judge Aileen Cannon granted a defense motion after ruling that Smith, who was not confirmed by the U.S. Senate as other U.S. Attorneys have been in the past, could not lawfully bring the indictment against Trump in federal court. “In the end, it seems the Executive’s growing comfort in appointing ‘regulatory’ special counsels in the more recent era has followed an ad...

VIDEOS AT LINK......................... People have been saying it’s Parkinson’s for some time now. Alex Berenson: Following my post today, a neurosurgeon and Unreported Truths reader (yes, some of you are actually brain surgeons) wrote in. For obvious reasons, he did not want his name used, but his email and answers to my follow-up question speak for itself. I’d urge you to read to the end, for the prediction he makes. I simply wanted to give you a thumbs up on your diagnosis of POTUS. He undoubtedly has Parkinson’s disease, and is increasingly suffering from Parkinson’s dementia. The signs are unmistakable:...
