Acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney told a crowd at a private gathering in England on Wednesday night that the Trump administration “needs more immigrants”... ... “We are desperate — desperate — for more people,” Mulvaney said. “We are running out of people to fuel the economic growth that we’ve had in our nation over the last four years. We need more immigrants.” [In a recording shared with Washington Post] ... Mulvaney’s remarks appear in contrast to the public position of several top figures in Trump’s White House — especially that of senior policy adviser Stephen Miller —...

Another President Trump rally!!!

A federal judge issued a permanent injunction against the Border Patrol's Tucson Sector on Wednesday, telling the agency that it cannot hold migrants, including families with children, for longer than 48 hours. In his 40-page decision, U.S. District Judge David C. Bury ruled the conditions at the sector's eight stations are "presumptively punitive and violate the Constitution," and he blocked Border Patrol and parent agency U.S. Customs and Border Protection from holding people who have been processed by agents for more than 48 hours from "book-in time." "Detention may not extend into a third night under the 'no longer than...

Democratic presidential candidate and billionaire Tom Steyer told CNN on Thursday none of his fellow rivals won Wednesday's debate in Las Vegas because President Trump was the true victor.  "Because I saw so much bickering between Democratic candidates tearing each other down and going after each other and forgetting the fact that what really counts is beating Donald Trump in November of 2020," Steyer said."I saw people going after each other’s personality and records instead of remembering that, in fact, the Democratic Party needs to win in November," he added.Steyer was not on the stage after failing to meet the...

A group of Trump supporters on Wednesday was spotted carrying a World War II veteran to his seat before the president’s rally in Phoenix, Ariz., video shows. A clip posted to Twitter shows two men, one donning a Trump hat, carrying the vet down a flight of stairs at the Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum. The crowd can be heard chanting “USA! USA!” in the background. https://twitter.com/KariLakeFox10/status/1230260022652784641?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1230260022652784641&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativeus.com%2Fvideo-heartwarming-moment-as-president-trump-honors-wwii-vet-carried-to-his-seat-by-fellow-trump-supporters%2F President Trump didn’t forget the sacrifice this man did so that he can attend his rally and decided to honor him. In true Trump fashion, the President recognized 100-year-old WWII veteran Irvin Julian, who...

The entire border needs a wall. Without the entire border walled, the illegal invaders can come through the unwalled areas and, once here, have the freedom of movement throughout the rest of the lower 48 states. But also the detention centers are not something that solves the problems. The Democrats and the MSM have no shame. With every passing day, we see more and more evidence of their hypocrisy, intellectual dishonesty, and evil behavior. Remember when the liberal media shared a touching photo of the little girl Yanela Denise, crying as a U.S. Border Patrol agent patted down her mother....

Democrats have no shame. The mainstream media will do everything they can in an effort to undermine our First Lady’s reputation among the American people. This “witch hunt” as well as the witch hunts against our President ended un-successful! It backfires instead as she received Palm Beach Atlantic University’s “Women of Distinction” award. Melania Trump, who changed her primary residence to Palm Beach along with President Trump Melania Trump, who changed her primary residence to Palm Beach along with President Trump last year, said she was “grateful” to accept the award. According to the school’s website, the award is given...

Bernie Sanders had to pause his speech for a moment as a boat drives by with a massive Trump sign and a super loud horn. Just listen to that horn go!! Very clever! (video on source, the horn is LOUD)

Pete Buttigieg rivals and critics attack his record on race relations and question whether the former mayor of a mid-sized, Midwestern town is up to the task of being the next commander in chief. After all, it seems that his racist past comes back to haunt him. Buttigieg has struggled mightily to attract support from voters of color, which could be a major issue for him once the calendar turns to more diverse states. But this isn’t Buttigieg’s only problem. The mainstream media tries to present him as a moderate Democrat but his statements are far from moderate. Townhall reports:...

I find it quite strange that the Bill of Rights is so easily dismissed–by those who have NO idea as to its origins and purpose–It sure as hell WASN’T, given to us so we could hunt but rather so that our Government could not turn into a bunch of tyrants–more important now than it was then! One thing is for sure Americans will never lose their guns, furthermore, the latest data shows numbers that will make liberals cry. In the year of the impeachment trial more guns were bought than any other year in U.S. history. The Washington Times reported...

We all knew that Mueller was told by his masters to drag this investigation out for the entirety of Trump’s time in office. Results never mattered, it was about casting a shadow over his administration. President Trump was innocent and it seems that the Deep State coup attempts are in the past. But now it’s time for POTUS to strike back. Trump delivered his message to the Deep State minions. He suggested he could bring a lawsuit over the failed “witch hunt”. “Everything having to do with this fraudulent investigation is … badly tainted and, in my opinion, should be...

It’s no wonder he chose to skip the Iowa caucus, given that former NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg apparently thinks farmers and manufacturers all across America lack “gray matter." In a clip just now circulating online, Bloomberg, while speaking at Oxford’s Said Business School back in 2016, explained that "anybody [can] be a farmer," but that it takes "a lot more gray matter" to "think and analyze" enough to work in the tech field. “I could teach anybody – even people in this room, no offense intended – to be a farmer,” Bloomberg explained. “It's a process. You dig a hole,...

President Trump wasn’t called a racist until he ran against Hillary. That’s how liberals operate. Play the race card every time. They’ve done it for decades. Fortunately, minorities aren’t falling for it as much as they used to. The black people no longer think they are victims – but free men – to do and achieve as they can. Just like all should be able to do. Last month, President Trump’s approval rating with African Americans hit 31%. Also, Trump’s approval with African Americans “jumped again… to 36%. The president’s approval is up 19 points since last year at this...

Democrats only do two things. They harm political opposition at any cost to the citizens, and they advance the Democratic Party at any cost to the citizens. The Democratic Party serves the elite of western civilization, not the citizens of the USA. John Kerry was the last in the line of Democrats that was accused of violating the Logan Act but he didn’t face any criminal investigation. The Dems argued that there wasn’t enough evidence. But now another case surface where we can see a clear example of violating the Logan Act. Chris Murphy and other Democratic Senators held a...

All of their predictions are based on the conventional wisdom and assumptions of an insulted and excluded D.C. intelligentsia, and all are wrong. Media bias is an old constant. It has never and will never go away. A reporter or host can use all the proper, sanitized words he wants, but behind the scenes lie the decisions that went into which stories to pursue and which to drop; where to pull back and where to push forward; who to interview, who to skip; what is most important versus what can be buried or even cut.And then, of course, there’s the...

While NASCAR fans were left disappointed by the Daytona 500 and the rain that caused havoc and postponed the race until Monday, the entire event was already different thanks to President Donald Trump. Due to Trump’s presence, security for The Great American Race was tighter than ever before. Trump is the second sitting president to attend the race and was named grand marshal at the event. https://twitter.com/TrumpStudents/status/1229131161638768640?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1229131161638768640&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rightjournalism.com%2Fvideo-after-the-rain-joe-nemecheks-trump-2020-car-at-the-daytona-500-is-ready-and-it-looks-wonderful%2F But Trump’s supporters will have one favorite at the race today.

President Trump took the stage and gave an opening speech on DAYTONA 500: TRUMP: “The Daytona 500 is a legendary display of roaring engines, soaring spirits of the Americans, scaled speed and power, that we’ve been hearing about for many years, the tens of thousands of patriots here today have come for the fast cars and the world-class motorsports. NASCAR fans never forget that no matter who wins the race, what matters most is god, family, and country.” A few moments later he gave the command for drivers at Daytona 500 to start the engines as the crowd went crazy....

Former Acting Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe will not face criminal charges for allegedly lying to agents about a leak to reporters, according to a Department of Justice (DOJ) letter released Friday afternoon. But what about other crimes he has committed? McCabe was “cleared” by DOJ on lying about leaking a news story; not FISA abuses or illegal spy operations. McCabe is NOT out of the woods yet for his criminal behavior. Who else will tell us the truth if not Trey Gowdy. Trey Gowdy is an American hero. He worked tirelessly to defeat Hillary by demanding she answer...
