The U.S. Intelligence Community in recent weeks allegedly picked up a credible threat from the Iranian regime about a plot to assassinate former President Trump. According to Fox News, U.S. authorities were warned about the alleged assassination plot weeks before the deadly shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania. Two government sources told Fox that the Department of Homeland Security, the Secret Service and others in the Intelligence Community received intel on the alleged plot through a “very good human source.” The alleged Iranian plot does not seem at this point to be related to Thomas Matthew Crooks’ assassination attempt. DHS claims that...

Hickcock45 and Son here! How you all doing? Got some bad news today to share with you. Don't know where you're seeing this - whether you're on the Hickcock45 Clips Channel or the Hickcock45 Main Channel or the Hickcock45 Talks Channel. We're posting this on all three channels today. We just had a chat with our Google rep and, John, you want to share? Yeah, he shared some unfortunate news with us. Some of you may have seen that YouTube changed their policy on gun videos in June 18th and we were not aware how much that was going to...

“And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight” (1 John 3:22). The answers to believers’ prayers bring assurance of salvation. Another reliable way to know if you are a Christian is if God answers your prayers. The apostle John gives us the infallible reasoning for this statement. First, you can know your prayers will be answered if you keep His commandments (1 John 3:22). And second, John says the only way you can obey God’s commandments is if you belong to Him (v. 24). Therefore,...

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...

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.
