    President Donald Trump is boasting a massive 43-point lead in Iowa, a Morning Consult survey found. The polling examining the race in Iowa shows Trump with a stunning, garnering 58 percent support. Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, not Florida Gov.

DeSantis falls closely behind with 14 percentage points, followed by Vivek Ramaswamy with ten points, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie with two points, and former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson with a single point. The surveys were taken between December 1, 2023, through Jan....

    We can be certain, however, if he was trans, media interest in reporting that fact will be minimal. Despite what the Democrat/socialist/communist (D/s/c) media would have us believe, school attacks remain, thankfully, rare. Also despite what they would have us believe, not every attack is committed with an AR-15 wielded by a white male Republican. A case in point is the January 4th attack on Perry High School in Perry, Iowa, a town of about 8000: A school shooting occurred in Iowa on Thursday morning. According to reports, the shooter injured at least three people before turning the gun on...

    Last week, 17-year-old student Dylan "DJ" Butler shot multiple people. He also killed a sixth-grade student before taking his own life. As Mia and Matt highlighted, Butler's social media posts pointed to an interest in the LGBT movement and identified as "gender fluid," using "he/they" pronouns. Now, more tragic but sadly not surprising details have come out, which is that he was known to authorities. Advertisement The Libs of TikTok X account shared coverage from the Daily Mail on Monday, which noted that Butler had been posting about the attack on the Discord social media site.

    While giving a speech Monday at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina, President Biden referenced Thursday’s shooting at Iowa’s Perry High School then pushed gun control that would not have prevented the shooting from taking place. Breitbart News reported the Iowa shooting was carried out by a 17-year-old armed with a pump shotgun and a small caliber handgun.

    The Iowa gunman who opened fire on Perry High School last week appeared to have an active account on the internet chat platform Discord where he previously discussed school shootings and described “gearing up” moments before Thursday’s attack.... (A) Discord user said they had flagged the chatroom to the FBI in November, after which an FBI agent reached out over email and asked for more information. The user emailed the FBI agent screenshots of the server but did not hear back. The user said their report to the FBI did not include mention of the user “took2much.” The chatroom was...

    Nikki Haley’s campaign reportedly canceled an event at the last minute to avoid what her critics describe as embarrassment, as video showed a relatively empty room and a few pro-Haley signs hanging on a wall. “If you look around me, technically this is an event that was supposed to start in the last few minutes, and of course it’s empty,” a reporter on the scene said. “You got empty chairs, stuff packed up in the corner, and signs just hanging on the wall — the only way you’d know that Nikki Haley was supposed to be here,” she said, noting...

    A week and a half from the Iowa caucuses, two 2024 Republican presidential contenders attempted to convince voters that former President Donald Trump isn’t a lock to win the nomination — and prove their own electability. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley warned Iowa Republican voters Thursday night that nominating Trump again could cost their party the White House in November. DeSantis sought to show a more relatable side of his personality. He opened by handing CNN moderator Kaitlan Collins the jersey of University of Iowa women’s basketball star Caitlin Clark — poking fun at...

    Presidential hopeful Chris Christie on Wednesday said that he would not pardon former President Donald Trump if he is convicted of crimes. During an appearance on The View, Christie didn't even let co-host Joy Behar finish the question when pointing out that opponents Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley had already pledged to pardon Trump, asking if he would do the same. “No, no, no, no,” Christie said. “As a governor, I issued pardons,” Christie explained. “And one of the things you have to do is look at the person. The person has to accept responsibility for what they...
  • Scoop: Christie ad says he made a "mistake" endorsing Trump in 2016

    Axios ^ | 01/04/2024 | Alex Thompson
    In a new campaign ad that doubles as a confessional, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie tells voters he has "an admission to make." Why it matters: Christie, who's been particularly critical of Trump during his campaign, is trying to win over voters who, like himself, backed Trump in the past and now are wary or disillusioned. What he's saying: "Eight years ago when I decided to endorse Donald Trump for president, I did it because he was winning, and I did it because I thought I could make him a better candidate and a better president," Christie says in...

    BETTENDORF, Iowa — At a campaign event this week, Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy touted an endorsement by a disgraced former congressman who lost his election after defending white nationalism. He refused to directly condemn white supremacy. And he said he didn’t recognize the name of Dylann Roof, the white supremacist who killed nine people at a historically Black church in South Carolina. “Was there a point in our prior national history where there have been vicious forms of anti-Black or anti-Brown discrimination in this country, after the Civil War and otherwise? Yes. But you’re looking in the rearview mirror,”...

    Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley appears to already be setting herself up for defeat in Iowa, as she courted New Hampshire voters on Wednesday, telling them that she trusts them to “correct” the results of the Iowa caucuses. The Iowa caucuses take place on January 15, followed by New Hampshire’s primary, which takes place on January 23. While Haley is down by double digits against former President Donald Trump in both states, it appears she is already attempting to appeal to New Hampshire voters to “correct” the forthcoming choice made by Iowans. “We have an opportunity to get this...

Said Biden’s campaign manager, via CBS News: "The threat that Donald Trump posed in 2020 to American democracy has only grown more dire in the years since," Chavez Rodriguez said, adding the Biden reelection campaign is being run like the "fate...

    Great American Comeback, the leadership PAC aligned with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign, has donated nearly $100,000 to a slate of Iowa legislators who have endorsed the governor’s White House bid, according to Iowa campaign finance records.

The first donations were made in early October, followed by several more in November and another three in December, the campaign finance records show. Earlier this summer, DeSantis’ allies linked Great American Comeback to Team...
