    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 9, 2024 Phoenix, AZ – Following today’s Arizona Supreme Court’s abortion ruling, Kari Lake released the following statement: “In addition to covering the state of Arizona as a fair and honest journalist for 27 years, I have traveled to every corner of this state on the campaign trail. I speak to more Arizonans than anyone and it is abundantly clear that the pre-statehood law is out of step with Arizonans. I am the only woman and mother in this race. I understand the fear and anxiety of pregnancy, and the joy of motherhood. I wholeheartedly agree...
  • TRUMP'S VP SELECTION: Please, Let It Be Ben!

    AT a recent Town Hall, hosted by Fox, President Trump was asked who would be his Vice President. He replied, that he already had someone in mind, but would not say at this time. We've all seen the list, that includes inexplicably people like Nikki Haley, Desantis and Ramaswamy. Another list has people with some credibility like Tulsi Gabbard, Bryan Donalds and a few others like Rand Paul and even Robert Kennedy Jr. In my mind, there is only one choice. PLEASE LET IT BE BEN CARSON. I can't think anyone better. Any other name that comes to mind will...

    Tim McGraw has some harsh words for divisive political rhetoric and the Jan. 6 attack on the United States Capitol — and he doesn't want to waste words on former President Donald Trump at all. "I'm not going to give him any air," McGraw replied with a chuckle, when asked for his thoughts on the former president during a TIME Person of the Week podcast interview. "From my perspective and my world, that's just so far out there that I can't even put words to it," the singer continues. "I want what's best for our country. I want what's best...

    Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie lashed out at a crowd for booing at Florida’s GOP Freedom Summit, claiming their “anger against the truth is reprehensible.”After beginning his speech, the Republican presidential hopeful tried to speak, but was quickly met by jeers and boos from the crowd, demanding he get off the stage.Since running for office, Christie has been a vocal critic of former President Donald Trump unlike a majority of the Republican presidential field. As a result, MAGA supporters often berate Christie during public events and GOP conferences.Instead of allowing the crowd to continue to berate him, he quickly...

    Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Monday called for lawmakers to approve an aid package for Ukraine, even as newly elected Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) prepares to put a bill containing only money for Israel on the floor. “This is a moment for swift and decisive action to prevent further loss of life, and to impose real consequences on the tyrants who have terrorized the people of Ukraine and of Israel,” McConnell said while introducing Oksana Markarova, the Ukrainian ambassador to the U.S., at an event at the University of Louisville. “Right now, the Senate has a chance to...

    Republican donors who were backing or considering backing Ron DeSantis and other alternative candidates to Donald Trump are now returning to the former president, recognizing his lead over his rivals appears insurmountable.“There is no doubt in my mind that Donald Trump will be the nominee of our party,” said Ed Broyhill, who served as Trump’s finance chairman in North Carolina in the last election but had been considering moving his support to DeSantis or Mike Pence in 2024.“I have met with all the candidates. None are close to the level of support Trump has,” he explained, noting Trump’s grassroots support...

    Townhall ^ | Oct 23, 2023 | Jeff Crouere
    For many years, the leadership of the Republican Party has been at war with the grassroots activists who work tirelessly on its behalf. This division has been apparent ever since Donald Trump descended the escalator in 2015 and announced his presidential campaign. Advertisement The party establishment worked overtime to deny the nomination to Trump, yet the Republican voters overwhelmingly supported him. The resentment toward Trump and his supporters continued during his presidency and still exists today. Sadly, there is little chance this divide will be bridged any time soon. The latest example occurred last week as congressional Republicans were attempting...

    NBC News ^ | October 4, 2023 | Emma Barnett and Zoë Richards
    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis had positive things to say today about Scalise and Jordan when asked about their respective speaker bids, but he stopped short of saying who he would prefer to see in the top House post. "I know both of those guys," DeSantis, a Republican presidential candidate, said of his former House colleagues. "They’re both good guys." In his remarks to reporters at an event in Greenville, South Carolina, DeSantis spoke in broad terms about what the next speaker needs to do. "You can’t just say, continue business as usual. You got to be somebody that understands we...
  • Newt Gingrich calls for GOP to EXPEL Matt Gaetz for being an 'anti-Republican' and slams his 'childish behavior'

    Daily Mail ^ | 3 October 2023
    Newt Gingrich has called for Matt Gaetz to be expelled from the Republican party for ousting Speaker Kevin McCarthy, describing Gaetz as egotistical, 'incompetent', childish, vain, and an embarrassment to their side. Gingrich, 80, was speaker of the House from 1995 until he retired from office in 1999. A staunch defender of Donald Trump, Gingrich said on Tuesday he felt Gaetz, another MAGA Republican, had done the party a disservice. Gaetz on Monday introduced the motion to remove McCarthy, which was passed on Tuesday afternoon. McCarthy, who was elected in January after a highly contentious vote, became the first speaker...

    Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that removing Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as House Speaker would be a “disaster” for his party. Graham said, “We had to keep the government open. We got 45 days to fix both problems. I listened to Kevin closely. There will come out of the Senate soon a bill that will have three legs to it: disaster funding. we need more, not less, ROBUST FUNDING FOR UKRAINE to get them through the next fighting season, not $24 billion and a major effort to secure our border. I believe there’s bipartisan support...

    Former President Donald Trump shifted his line of attack to focus on former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley, one of his Republican primary opponents in 2024, in a number of posts to Truth Social as she rises in the polls. Trump, who leads his opponents by double digits and boasts the support of more than half of likely Republican primary voters, has mostly limited his criticisms to Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), who initially showed donors the most promise in challenging him for the nomination. But now, as DeSantis struggles to recoup support in the polls and Haley is on the...

    Republican 2024 presidential candidate Nikki Haley raised $11 million in the first six weeks of her campaign, according to a report on Wednesday — only slightly more than former President Donald Trump took in over five days since his indictment. Haley, the US ambassador to the United Nations during the Trump administration, ​told Fox News that the contributions reflected the strength of her grassroots support, as she received 70,000 separate donations from all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Her campaign noted that 67,000 of those donations were under $200. ​Haley, who launched her presidential run on Feb. 14​,...

    Ron DeSantis may be missing his moment. A number of the Florida governor’s donors and allies are worried his recent stumbles suggest he may not be ready for a brutal fight against Donald Trump. Some feel DeSantis needs to accelerate his timeline to run for the GOP presidential nomination and begin directly confronting Trump if he's to have any chance of thwarting the former president’s momentum. Others believe DeSantis should sidestep Trump altogether and wait until 2028 to run. “They liked him — many of them might even support him,” the person who was at the event said of DeSantis....

    A new Yahoo News/YouGov poll finds that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis now leads former President Donald Trump by 5 percentage points in the race for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination. Trump previously led DeSantis by double-digit margins among registered voters who describe themselves as Republicans or Republican-leaning independents. Meanwhile, DeSantis is ahead by even more — a whopping 11 points — among Americans who say they voted in a 2016 Republican primary or caucus in their state. The poll of 1,635 U.S. adults, which was conducted from Dec. 1 to 5, is one of the first to confirm how far...

    Fresh off his huddling with donors last week, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is teeing up a jammed-pack week as he seemingly lays down the groundwork for a 2024 bid. DeSantis will deliver his hotly anticipated State of the State address to the Florida legislature, which is set to convene Tuesday, and start his mad dash to wrangle through a bevy of big-ticket items. Then, DeSantis will close off the week with a trip to the early primary state of Iowa to promote his new book. "Gov. DeSantis has said he is going to have the most productive and successful legislative...

In an interview on WISN ABC, Ryan was asked where he would be during the 2024 convention held in Milwaukee. “Where will you be?” the host asked. “It depends on who the nominee is,” Ryan replied. “I’ll be here if it’s not named somebody Trump.”

    Liz Cheney is no longer a member of Congress, but that didn’t stop her from trying to pick a fight with Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-GA. Cheney tweeted from the unemployment line on Monday, lecturing Greene on the “governing principles of America” after the Georgia congresswoman proposed a national divorce. Greene had tweeted earlier, “We need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government. Everyone I talk to says this.
