Former President Donald Trump delivers the keynote address at the Turning Point USA Faith Believers’ Summit.

On "Forbes Newsroom," political scientist Charles Lipson reacts to President Joe Biden's Oval Office address after he dropped out of the presidential race and Vice President Kamala Harris' 2024 campaign.

You say to-MAY-to and I say to-MAH-to. You say KAM-a-la, and Trump says Ka-MA-la. Let's call the whole thing off! CNN This Morning devoted a segment to the subject of Trump's pronunciation of Harris's first name. Host Kasie Hunt and CNN analyst and former Dem aide Karen Finney insisted that Trump's mispronunciation was "intentional." Jonah Goldberg wasn't so sure it was intentional, but he agreed with Finney that it was an attempt to "other" her. Really? How is Ka-MA-la any more foreign that KA-ma-la? Neither is exactly Mary Jane. In any case, a country that twice elected Barack Hussein Obama...

@brysondechambeau 12 hours ago (edited) I want to thank President Trump for coming on this episode of Break 50! It was an honor to play a round with the former president and raise a ton of money for the Wounded Warrior Project. This was all meant to be about golf, good fun, and supporting a great cause. I’ve also added the Wounded Warrior Project as a fundraiser on this video for those of you who would like to take part in giving back to our nation’s veterans as well! Edit: To confirm and clear any speculation, the Break 50 video...

The Morning Joe crew this morning was giddy with enthusiasm and excitement over Kamala Harris. Their delirium was epitomized by Eugene Robinson, the Washington Post columnist and MSNBC analyst, who said the feeling among his fellow Democrats is that: "This is not only a winnable race, but that they can really slam Donald Trump in this election coming up." Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

The world does not revolve around the American political calendar nor do rogues take a pause because White House aides and Democratic politicos wish a smooth coronation for Vice President Kamala Harris or whomever comes out of an open convention. If Democrats cannot provide a strong commander because Biden chose a vice president based on race and gender rather than ability, so be it. Virtue signaling has a cost. Harris, at least, is cogent. She can make decisions around the clock when a crisis emerges.

Congressman David Joyce (R-OH) is a member of the House Ethics Committee, which is probing Gaetz. The American Conservative found financial disclosures that reveal Rep. Joyce’s campaign and his leadership PAC donated a combined $7,000 to Gaetz’s primary challenger, Aaron Dimmock. For his part, Gaetz told TAC: “It is no surprise to see Mr. Joyce, a stock-trading member of the ethics committee, funding my opponent. The ethics committee was hand picked by McCarthy and they will do his bidding in elections and in their witch hunt coming after me.” There is evidence here of a $2,000 transaction from Friends of...

(Jul. 22, 2024) — Trump will have the legal standing in federal courts to do so if she is nominated for that office by the DNC. And Trump should do so to force SCOTUS to take up the issue of the “natural born Citizen” term as it applies to whom can constitutionally serve as the President and Commander in Chief (and VP per the 12th Amendment) and resolve it. The courts evaded the issue using “lack of standing by the plaintiffs” for Obama and then also for Harris for VP. They should not do that again. Former Chief Justice Marshall‘s...

J.D. Vance’s rise to the vice-presidential nomination is a watershed moment in American politics. For young conservatives like myself, the moment feels like a triumph, the culmination of curiosity and organization. For the country, the moment offers the first uncompromising choice for change in a generation. The moment calls for a reflection on how we arrived here and the choice before us. Will middle America forge a new consensus, achieved with echoes of the Jacksonian age? Alternatively, will the great city-states of the Democratic Party stymie the tide of discontent and preserve the neoliberal status quo?

“USA! USA! USA!” the crowd chanted as Terry Bollea, better known as Hulk Hogan, a professional wrestler, took the stage Thursday at the Republican National Convention to endorse Donald Trump.

Conservatism is all about preserving traditions and resisting sudden change. Yet several high-profile right-wing figures sported radically different looks at this year's Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. Kimberly Guilfoyle, Donald Trump Jnr's fiancee, was hit with plastic surgery allegations after looking unrecognizable from her days as a liberal when she was married to democratic Governor Gavin Newsom. Firebrand Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz was also accused of getting Botox and other cosmetic adjustments after sporting a radical facial transformation. One of Gaetz's rival Republicans likened him to a 'blow up doll.' And Donald Trump himself is also rumored to have had...

After time away from the spotlight, the right-wing host is increasingly welcomed by Trump’s inner circle. He also made a surprise visit to Fox’s convention studio. All of a sudden, Tucker Carlson has roared back to the forefront of Republican politics. Once the top-rated anchor on Fox News — only to be abruptly ousted 15 months ago, his national platform yanked out from under his feet — Mr. Carlson has made an improbable re-emergence into America’s living rooms at this week’s Republican National Convention. He was the first person to greet Donald J. Trump after the former president’s dramatic entrance...

Jonathan, Jonathan: you're not supposed to say this kind of stuff on live national TV! Save it for whatever is the dark web successor to JournoList, where liberal media types can reach consensus on the approved lib talking points of the day! In a bizarre bit of saying the quiet part out loud, on today's Morning Joe, Jonathan Lemire, MSNBC's Way Too Early host and Politico's White House bureau chief, issued marching orders to the rest of the liberal media. "I do think we need a moratorium here in the media about Donald Trump's -- praising Donald Trump's new tone....

The Republican concern with China’s threat to America is understandable, arguably even laudable, as many of China’s economic, security, and human rights policies do, in fact, challenge America. When that laudable concern turns into a single-minded obsession, however, then it does more than a disservice to America. It becomes exactly that which it was supposed to deter: a threat to America’s security. Both former President Donald Trump and his running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, along with the Heritage Foundation and scores of conservative analysts, suffer from this obsession. If China were the only big country that matters in the...

VIDEOBarbara From Baltimore who was sitting on the first row of the bleachers directly behind President Donald Trump at his Butler, PA rally was recording video on her cell phone just seconds before and during the attempted assassination as you can see. She called in to the Steve Kane Radio show on Wednesday morning and talked to co-host Brian Craig who urged her to make her video more available because of its historical value and because it could reveal new information due to the position and angle from which the video was recorded. One thing of note as revealed in...

At a Trump 2024 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, an apparently lone gunman aimed multiple shots at President Trump, fortunately only grazing the President but killing one attendee and seriously injuring two others in the audience, before the Secret Service brought him down. Our reactions are varied, as they must be. We are relieved that President Trump survived and that the shooter was killed. We are saddened that our society has come to this, that a 20-year-old’s mind has been poisoned enough to believe that Donald Trump, out of all the politicians of the age, is somehow...
