I mean, they would say that about you, I think as well, and they’re going to allege a coverup. They’re going to say she knew she covered it...

The GOP nominee for the U.S. presidential election appeared to suggest that Taiwan should pay the U.S. for protection, telling the outlet: "I don't think we're any different...

The far-left Lincoln Project, whose cofounder has openly and publicly called for someone to “put a bullet in Donald Trump,” is still looking to get the former president assassinated by comparing him to Adolf Hitler. Three days after an assassin fired off eight rounds at Trump, one nicking his ear, the Lincoln Project released this assassination dog whistle: Hitler's power wasn't taken, it was given. And once he had control he enacted his horrifying, dictatorial agenda. The same dynamic is at play with Trump. pic.twitter.com/PKKzyJFomc — The Lincoln Project (@ProjectLincoln) July 16, 2024 Here are the facts… When you tell...

Fox News analyst Brit Hume questioned former President Trump’s pick of Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) to be his vice presidential candidate, pointing to Vance’s past harsh criticisms of Trump. Hume posited that voters may come to question how Vance became the candidate over other top picks. “You think, well, is this person, how did he get the job?

People will have questions about that.” Vance was a fierce critic of Trump...

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed a bill into law Monday that bars schools from informing parents when their child decides to change his or her gender, effectively stripping parents’ rights to know about gender transitions.
