Popular YouTuber James Klüg posted a man-on-the-street video interview he filmed in the aftermath of Saturday’s attempted assassination of Donald Trump where one deranged leftist said he supports more Americans trying to take out the 45th President. Asked for his thoughts on the shooting, the random citizen said, “They missed. He should have died. He’s not good for this country and he never will be.” “So, you’re disappointed that the shooter missed Donald Trump?” Klüg asked. “Yeah, a hundred percent,” the man answered. When he was asked if the shooting was justified, the interviewee explained, “I’m sure in his eyes...

Donald Trump has picked Ohio senator J.D. Vance as his running mate, choosing a grassroots favorite ahead of more seasoned political operators. The former president left it until the last possible moment, using all his showman skills to leave the world guessing, before opting for 39-year-old Vance after the Republican National Convention had already begun in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Vance swept to national attention when he published his bestselling memoir 'Hillbilly Elegy,' in 2016, the year Trump was elected president. He has been a senator for less than two years but has established himself as one of the fiercest defenders of...

Kung Fu Panda star Jack Black’s band Tenacious D mocked Donald Trump just one day after the former president was struck by but survived an assassin’s bullet, with a band member shouting “don’t miss Trump next time” during a performance on Sunday. Tenacious D was performing in Sydney, Australia, when the tasteless comment was made from the stage, according to video from Sunday’s concert. It remains unclear which band member made the remark, though some reports identified the speaker as bandmember Kyle Gass. Expressing a wish for the death of a U.S. president is a federal crime. Jack Black —...

Former President Donald Trump announced Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) as his running mate on Monday. The much-anticipated moment occurred just as Trump was being formally nominated as the Republican presidential nominee at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Trump announced on Truth Social: After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio. J.D. honorably served our Country in the Marine Corps, graduated from Ohio State University...

Former President Donald Trump said Monday the recent throwing out of an indictment that was levied against him should be the first of many. Two days after the failed assassination attempt that left him bloodied during his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, Trump used Truth Social to take aim at the “Witch Hunts” that have been plaguing him. He wrote: As we move forward in Uniting our Nation after the horrific events on Saturday, this dismissal of the Lawless Indictment in Florida should be just the first step, followed quickly by the dismissal of ALL the Witch Hunts —...

[Catholic Caucus] New Zealand: Transalpine Redemptorists Kicked OutBishop Michael Gielen of Christchurch, New Zealand, has forced the Transalpine Redemptorists, who celebrate the Mass in the Roman Rite (the TLM), to leave the diocese.The decree of 14 July also removes their priestly faculties within the diocese. It is effective immediately: "Any ministry [...] will be unauthorised and liturgical celebrations will be illicit - that is, outside the rules of the Church."There are wishy-washy accusations of "spiritual and psychological abuse" and "unauthorised" exorcisms against the Redemptorists.Former Bishop Robert McGuckin of Toowoomba, Australia, carried out an Apostolic Visitation in November 2023. Subsequently, the...

The far-left Axios was even more grotesque than usual on Monday, perversely suggesting that after getting shot in the face, President Trump should go before the world and apologize for getting shot. He could unify America. Imagine he gave a speech featuring something he rarely shows: humility. Imagine him telling the nation that he has been too rough, too loose, too combative with his language — and now realizes words can have consequences, and promises to tone it down and bring new voices into the White House if he wins (emphasis original). Shorter Axios: He had it coming! Don’t you...

Former Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Weissmann said Monday on MSNBC’s “Ana Cabrera Reports” that Judge Aileen Cannon’s dismissal of former President Donald Trump’s classified documents case in Florida is an “opportunity” for the 11th Circuit to remove Cannon if they think that this was frivolous. Weissmann said, “I think it’s really important what Barb said, to think about what are the next steps because this is not a decision on the merits it’s about the procedure that was used. While I think that the bulk of the law, the balance of the law is squarely against Judge Cannon, this is...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Joe Biden is on the brink of failing to win a key labor endorsement as leaders of the 1.3 million-member Teamsters union consider backing no candidate at all in the U.S. presidential race, according to two people familiar with the matter. The International Brotherhood of Teamsters decision has not been finalized and is expected to be made in the coming weeks. Not backing Biden, who the union endorsed in 2020, would compound political damage to the Democratic president's reelection bid. A Teamsters endorsement for Republican candidate Donald Trump appears unlikely, sources say, but deep internal divisions...

Five years ago, Joe Biden was the “electability” candidate — the well-liked, moderate Democrat who promised to beat Donald Trump and had the poll numbers to back it up. The polls don’t back up Biden’s electability case anymore. In the latest New York Times/Siena College polls on Monday, he trails by 3 percentage points among likely voters in must-win Pennsylvania, while he leads by a mere 3 points in Virginia — a state he carried by 10 points four years ago. Not only does Biden trail Trump, but he also fares worse than Vice President Kamala Harris, the only other...

MILWAUKEE — Former President Donald Trump has made his pick for vice president, according to two senior campaign officials, and will announce it at 3:30 p.m. CT. The running mate will appear when the vice presidential nomination process starts. Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, had been focused on three finalists: Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida and Gov. Doug Burgum of North Dakota. But the search process has been closely guarded by the former president and top advisers, with everything from timing to the identity of his choice largely up to Trump himself. Four sources told...

SACRAMENTO, Calif. - President Gerald Ford recalled seeing a hand holding a large handgun slipping through a crowd at a Sacramento park before a Secret Service agent lunged at Charles Manson disciple Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme, according to a 38-year-old videotape released Monday. The former president calmly and carefully recalled the attempted assassination in the videotaped testimony that would later be used in Fromme's trial. The roughly 20-minute interview taped in Washington was released by a federal court as the result of a motion filed by a local historical group. In it, Ford gestures gently with his hands and sips water...

DOUG BURGUM TOLD HE IS NOT VICE PRESIDENT. THIS LEAVES JD VANCE, UNLESS THERE'S A SURPRISE. Stay Tuned...............

The best campaign commercial in the history of US politics.

The argument that Trump posed a Hitler-level threat to American democracy can be traced back to the first outbreak of Trump Derangement Syndrome among left-leaning journalists in 2016. What made the argument so malignant was that it justified using all means possible to disrupt Trump’s presidency and to prevent his re-election. Hillary Clinton formally conceded her loss to Trump in 2016. But the Democratic Party inwardly denied the legitimacy of his victory. What followed that concession speech was a sustained campaign of scheming to undermine the 45th President. There were calls to change the electoral system on the grounds that...

A veteran whose team holds the world record for longest confirmed sniper kill claims Donald Trump's shooter 'had help' in his attempted assassination attempt. Dallas Alexander, who spent 14 years in a sniper team for the Canadian military doing close protection for major world leaders including the Canadian prime minister, suggested in a video Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, who opened fire at the former president's rally Saturday night, may have had help from the inside. 'I'm very familiar with the layout of these types of things and what the job should be, and yesterday what happened,' he said.
