In a fiery speech Tuesday night on Day Two of the GOP convention, Lara Trump—RNC Co-chair and wife to GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump's son Eric—described the awful moment her family witnessed the attempted assassination of her father-in-law on live TV.

The LGBTQ+ mafia has been emboldened, and a Moms for Liberty county chair is one of the latest victims. Parents who oppose the imposition of sexualized or pornographic material on children face two major threats. They may face intimidating visits from the FBI. Or, like Julie Mauck, they may find themselves canceled. Mauck — a real estate agent in Watkinsville, Oconee County, GA, and county chair of Moms for Liberty — lost her job because of a smear campaign by the LGBTQ+ community. Her alleged crime? At a library board meeting, as a concerned citizen and mother, she requested that...

Mayor Brandon Johnson’s administration is putting unhoused people back on the streets to make room for relocated tent encampment occupants who are being moved before the Democratic National Convention next month. More than half a dozen people told the Sun-Times that they were thrown out or fear they are about to be ejected from a shelter in a former hotel off the Magnificent Mile — as city officials begin to clear a highly visible tent city abutting the Dan Ryan Expressway. A domestic violence survivor, a recovering alcoholic and others with anxiety or chronic medical conditions were among those kicked...

My day to address the Bldg. & Const. Trades Nat. Conf. A.F.L.-C.I.O. at the Hilton Ballroom—2 P.M. Was all dressed to go & for some reason at the last min. took off my really good wrist watch & wore an older one. Speech not riotously received—still it was successful. Left the hotel at the usual side entrance and headed for the car—suddenly there was a burst of gun fire from the left. S.S. Agent pushed me onto the floor of the car & jumped on top. I felt a blow in my upper back that was unbelievably painful. I was...

Dear readers, The Chicago Sun-Times newspaper wasn’t printed or delivered Tuesday due to unexpected issues with the printing presses at our vendor, Chicago Tribune Company, which also prints the Tribune, the Daily Herald, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and other papers.

God’s not done with Donald J. Trump. I feel that in my bones. On July 13, I had a livestream of the president’s speech in Butler, Pennsylvania, playing in the background while I worked on something else. When I heard an agent yell, “Down, down, down” and looked toward the screen, and realized that President Trump was on the ground and bleeding, my heart skipped a beat. Out of habit, I dropped to my knees and began praying for his life and the life of our country — so inextricably interwoven both seemed to be in that moment. As I...

MILWAUKEE, July 16 (Reuters) - Donald Trump will safeguard gun rights by appointing federal judges who oppose new firearm limits if he is elected in November, despite narrowly surviving an assassination attempt, a senior adviser to his presidential campaign said on Tuesday.... ...The remarks from LaCivita...dovetailed with the sentiments expressed by a dozen Republican Party delegates interviewed by Reuters at the convention...

Donald Trump’s takeover of the Republican Party shows itself in the platform priorities approved here at the convention and the people who are now influencing the Illinois Republican Party. With all the hoopla from inside the convention hall at Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum, it’s easy to miss the people left outside of the arena and the party. Among them: Adam Kinzinger, who was once viewed as the future of the GOP. He was a fresh-faced military vet who, as a congressman, voted with Trump more than 90 percent of the time. But then he committed the Cardinal Sin of today’s GOP:...

An unnamed photo editor at a major news outlet believes it is "dangerous" for the media to highlight the historic photo of former President Trump standing tall after the assignation attempt Saturday, calling it "free PR" for the Trump campaign, according to a report. An Axios media trend assessment on Tuesday argued that the "overuse" of the iconic image can "pose risks," citing unnamed photographers who reportedly told the outlet that promoting the viral photos could be a form of "photoganda" because the Trump campaign will use them to "further their agenda, despite the photographers' intent of capturing a news...

@JDVance1 Just overwhelmed with gratitude. What an honor it is to run alongside President Donald J. Trump. He delivered peace and prosperity once, and with your help, he'll do it again. Onward to victory!

Trump survives assassination attempt. But this should come as no surprise. Years of hatred promoted by mainstream media and the left must be seen as part of the reason this happened. Bjorn pulls multiple videos from the past few years regarding the media and entertainment's encouragement. He is not an American, but offers a good observation from a common foreigner how the world is watching events here.

While information awaits on Trump shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks, consider wannabe presidential assassin Oscar Ortega-Hernandez, who praised Osama bin Laden for standing up to the United States. According to the FBI:On November 11, 2011, at approximately 8:50 p.m., Ortega-Hernandez drove southbound on 15th Street NW and made a right turn onto Constitution Avenue NW. Shortly after passing the entrance to the Ellipse, he stopped his vehicle in the middle of the road. With the passenger-side window of his car lowered, he pointed his [AK-style] assault rifle out the passenger-side window of the car and aimed directly at the White House....
