PORTLAND, Ore. — President Donald Trump appears to be cooling on his plans to send troops to Portland to protect U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, according to an interview Sunday morning with NBC.When asked whether he is still sending troops to Portland, which he described as "War ravaged" in a social media post Saturday, Trump said his administration will make a decision on that 'pretty soon.'"Well, I mean, we're certainly looking at it," Trump said. "You can't have that. We don't want that. They're attacking our ICE facility and they're attacking other federal buildings."Trump made the comments during a...

Tensions are boiling inside the Department of Justice regarding President Donald Trump's appointment of an inexperienced prosecutor to handle explosive cases against his political enemies – including James Comey and Letitia James. Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan for the Eastern District of Virginia forged ahead with convening a grand jury against former FBI Director James Comey, despite having little to no support from Attorney General Pam Bondi's team. Other reports suggest that the DOJ didn't want to go after Comey yet because they were more focused on landing charges for disgraced former Trump National Security Advisor John Bolton, whose home...

A Kentucky congressman and senator are touring northern Kentucky together as the election season begins. “Is it the Republicans fault or the Democrats fault? And I just say ‘yeah,’” Sen. Rand Paul said humorously as he began remarks to a packed room at the Robertson County Community Center. It was one of four community forums held on Wednesday, co-headlined by Paul and Rep. Thomas Massie. Later in the day, both appeared at a coffee meet & greet and a “Massie for Congress” rally that staff said were campaign events. Both Republicans have taken national heat for their own independence from...

@RandPaul Great turnout tonight in Northern Kentucky to support my friend @MassieforKY

Republicans are turning the heat back up on the Trump administration for its handling of the Epstein files. Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie torched FBI Director Kash Patel over the weekend after he caught the bureau chief off guard on information that Patel should have already been privy to. “I told Director Kash Patel that the FBI has names of 20 men to whom Jeffrey Epstein trafficked women and girls,” Massie wrote on X. “This basic fact seemed to surprise him. Why? “Is the FBI withholding those names to protect the President’s rich and powerful friends?” Massie continued, before demanding that...

Donald Trump's speech to the United Nations was one of the clearest expositions of the way he sees the world, his ideology in its rawest form. To his supporters, it will be seen as Trumpism unplugged; to his critics, Trumpism unhinged. Over almost an hour, he took aim at his opponents and their ideas, picking them off one by one as he toured the world. He began at home, praising the United States and himself. He said the US was living through a golden age and repeated his much-disputed claim that he had personally ended seven wars, something he argued...

After getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine/Russia Military and Economic situation and, after seeing the Economic trouble it is causing Russia, I think Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position to fight and WIN all of Ukraine back in its original form. With time, patience, and the financial support of Europe and, in particular, NATO, the original Borders from where this War started, is very much an option. Why not? Russia has been fighting aimlessly for three and a half years a War that should have taken a Real Military Power less than...

US President Donald Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on the sidelines of the 80th United Nations General Assembly in New York after blasting world leaders during his speech. Speaking to reporters before the bilateral talks, Trump hailed Zelenskyy as a courageous leader. "He’s a brave man, and he’s putting up one hell of a fight," Trump said. "We have about 30 meetings scheduled today, but this is an important one -- and we have great respect for the fight that Ukraine is putting up. It is pretty amazing."

President Donald Trump suggested on Saturday that George Soros should see jail time as his administration weighs a federal racketeering investigation into the Democratic megadonor and his family. Trump issued his latest attack against Soros in an interview with NBC News, in which he said he “should be put in jail.”

Trump just said there are a LARGE NUMBER of people on the left who are being INVESTIGATED in the wake of Charlie's assassination! "They are already under MAJOR INVESTIGATION. A lot of the people you would traditionally see on the left are already under investigation."

WASHINGTON (TNND) — President Donald Trump is planning an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) cage match that will reportedly take plan on the White House lawn.

Victims of late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and his incarcerated accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell said in a Wednesday press conference on Capitol Hill that they are putting together a list of the pair’s rich and powerful “clients” allegedly linked to their sex trafficking scheme. *** Now, together, as survivors, we will confidentially compile the names we all know who were regularly in the Epstein world. And it will be done by survivors and for survivors — no one else is involved,” she added. *** All 212 Democrats are expected to back the petition, [ to release the files]along with Massie and GOP...

House Republicans release the first tranche of Epstein files The Justice Department delivered its first trove of files to Congress last month, after the House Oversight Committee subpoenaed the department for the files. House Republicans on Tuesday night released the first group of files related to the late financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, which primarily includes information already publicly released.The Justice Department delivered its first trove of files to Congress last month, after the House Oversight Committee subpoenaed the department for the files. But the committee took over a week to review the 33,000 files, per Politico."This is the...

House GOP Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY) has called on U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to open a full-blown federal investigation into Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) and to scrutinize New York Attorney General Letitia James’ complicity in a billion-dollar terrorist financing scandal. House Republican Chairwoman Elise Stefanik’s urgent letter to Bondi comes on the heels of a bombshell Gateway Pundit report into the Standard Chartered Bank sanctions evasion case, now before the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals. That case uncovered at least $9.6 billion in illegal payments by the bank to Iranian and Hezbollah entities—payments that directly violate U.S....

.... Massie also has an ally in Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., a fellow self-described libertarian who describes Massie as a good friend. “I’m a big supporter of his, and vice versa. I’m planning a 10-city tour with him in September to support him, and we will do what it takes. We both represent sort of the liberty wing of the Republican Party,” Paul said. “We want to make sure that we don’t allow anybody to come in and try to defeat him.” Paul is the only GOP senator who voted against Trump’s megabill because of debt concerns, but, unlike Massie,...

The Capitol Hill battle over Jeffrey Epstein is poised to heat up when Congress returns to Washington next month. While GOP leaders left town early to avoid the radioactive issue, the conspiracy-ridden saga is set to ramp back up come September for a number of reasons. A bipartisan pair of lawmakers have vowed to force a vote on their resolution requiring the administration to release the federal files it’s withholding and plan to bring survivors of Epstein’s abuse to Capitol Hill in the first days of Congress’s return. Separately, a number of court cases surrounding the fate of those files...

While Democrats are claiming that President Donald Trump unveiled a comprehensive plan to “liberate” Washington, D.C. is a distraction from the Jeffrey Epstein case, an unlikely source is pouring cold water on their plans. On CNN, pollster Harry Enten reported that “Google searches for Epstein are down 89% from just 3 weeks ago,” “Trump's approval rating is holding steady & much higher than term 1 at this point in his presidency,” and “less than 1% say it's the nation's top issue.” “The Epstein saga,” Enten noted, “is becoming a political dud & nothingburger.” CNN’s findings confirm what many across America...
